My first job was as an Office Boy in a high-class jewelry store. I was age 14. The year was 1949. I like to say that I've been selling ever since. I remember how proud I felt making my first sale at age 16. It was an apprenticeship, but I didn't know it at the time.

After the Air Force and finishing college, I worked the next 10 years as a salesman and a systems analyst in banking and industry. The next ten years were spent in the insurance field where I eventually was a VP with my own general insurance agency. The last 25 years found me doing something that I really liked: Computers. Computers are still a hobby today. Eventually I became President & CEO of my own Internet service provider. I sold IamNet, Inc. 4 years ago and retired to Florida.

My future is my responsibility. Being self-employed for the last 35 years and following my heart when choosing a career does not lend one to become wealthy. But where does it say that we are to wallow in retirement comfort? Working from home forever is cool when your joy and peace comes from the Lord.

In the last 48 months I've spent perhaps $20,000 on network marketing, learning and realizing my weaknesses. (So what else is new). Thus I find myself constantly studying to gain greater insight, as so many others have done.. I hope to save you that effort and time. As a network marketer I believe in multiple networking businesses and creating your own web site.

Be sure you have a hands-on true home business with astonishing professional marketing software. Why would a professional business man with an BSBA, having developed, prospered and sold two successful businesses in his lifetime want to do such a simple thing? Because it's simple, it's fun, it's relaxing, and it's health and prosperity that matters. My physical strength is not what it used to be, but I've never felt better in my life selling health and wellness. Besides I thought it's just cool to have a real fun business on the Internet, and have it be easy to run. I'd like to give 80% of what I make away.

At any age over 18, hands-on creative activity from home just makes sense. If that takes more discipline, then that's that. Because discipline, in my opinion, is the determination of ones level of prosperity in life.

Can you imagine a 20 year old doing what I'm now doing along with millions of other young people. The network marketing on-line is the wave of the future.

Given the computer savvy, you do you need the discipline like I do. Now age 72, I know that the only person who is going to take care of ME and my family is God! But I'm the one that needs the discipline to prosper. Are you ready to have such change happen for you, because this is all about you.

The skills needed to help others are available and we have an education system where we can practice and learn the secrets right on the Internet. Discipline, that I rejected as a child, was the secret that I missed nor learned in the past. Such secrets mean you will prosper and growth via the Internet.

See "The Secret" for starters. It's all about the law of attraction. Never complain but rather be a prolific encourager. We must be disciplined to the task and you must always be positive, the big secret that I missed in life.

It's now time for us to step out with the right people, with the right stuff, have a vision, and really desire to succeed. It's now time to create a healthy and prosperous life with a new reality!

Outside of our selves, I've also learned two things: One, we must have a powerful automated professional marketing system using the Internet; and two, within that system one must have a strong training, teaching and support system. Some folks attempt this for themselves, as I did, and that was my mistake...May it not be yours! Listen to your sponsors.

Have you thought about how important it is when marketing on the Internet to have something where you have an exceptional product with your own unique input. This is called nitch marketing! The niche idea allows you to focus on growth, BOTH personal and financial. A niche makes it easier to attract attention. A nitch market must have an item that is consumable and easily renewable.

There is a craze today for healthy living and weight loss. The practice of preventative medicine is on the rise. Rain forest are being cultivated, renewed and financial progress is gaining a foothold in third world countries. Asian and South American people groups are learning how to market to consumer nations. All this is coming to pass because of the power to market over the Internet through people to people marketing.

It's all in place. All we have to do is invest in yourself, step-up, follow the system, and be teachable and willing to learn. Like any business of your own, hard work , dedication, and having fun is how it is.

Yours truly old selling ways just don't work in this modern Internet age, and learning to change has not been easy, but it's been worth the effort. We never had such a huge marketplace with such great support and a powerful niche marketing systems until now. No more selling, just concentrate on relationships and helping others!

Now I can practice the freedom that God gives to be the over-comer and to prosper as He intends. It's good to use the renewable resources that he has provided and proven over the centuries for your abundance and prosperity. It's all good.
