Turning Debt Into Profit

It’s all about mindset. When you watch all the news coverage about the current economic crisis it’s important to keep this in mind. You see, beneath all the facts and figures, the fact is that finance, like every other realm of human activity, is more influenced by attitude – “gut feeling” – than many people are willing to admit. Remember: A lot of what’s going on is very much driven by the fact that people’s faith in banks’ ability to manage and create wealth is badly shaken. If they got all those mortgages wrong, what else did they screw up?) If you want to make money from home in the current economy you have to keep that in mind.

How do you act on this? Here are the first two rules. First, have faith in yourself! Bad times pass, and good work is never worthless. You have to have rock solid confidence in your ability to work from home (or anywhere else). Next, be decisive. Once it’s time to act, don’t hesitate.

We see the results of indecision and low self-confidence all around us. We all know somebody who’s been working the same job for years, hates it and always says, “I’m going to quit and do what I’ve always wanted to” – but of course, they never quit. It would be better if he (or she) either left or resolved to be as good at his job as he could be, but you know the type. He puts in a sub par effort because he doesn’t want to be there, but he doesn’t actually leave. He gets passed over for promotions, and says he feels trapped in his job. When he gets let go, he doesn’t have a plan. He never believed in himself to actually make plans to take control of his life.

That’s what leads into the third rule – the one that separates success from failure, and fantasy from reality. Turn your dreams into a plan. Without a plan, you can’t focus your aspirations into a productive direction. The beauty of a turnkey business opportunity is that the plan’s laid out for you and best of all, it’s been tested by people who can add to it and make it better.

This is a new year, a new era. I want people to feel the confidence that’s served me so well, and find a plan that converts that energy into a practical opportunity to make money from home. Contact me to learn more about it.

“Nothing succeeds like success.”

That mantra first appeared in print in 1868. It is an indisputable fact that success tends to breed success. The formula works in sports, entertainment, and business.

But that is just too obvious, isn’t it? What about the person who hasn’t yet tasted the sweet nectar of success? What about the person who wasn’t voted “Most Likely To Succeed” by his or her classmates? Or worse, the one who was elected as such…and then proceeded to make a mess of things?

Plenty of people know how to take money and make more money with it. It is another aspect of success breeding success. But how do you transform debt into wealth? How do you take a negative and turn it into a positive, a loss and make a gain of it? That is another story entirely.

Look at the following formula and fill in the answer:

Failure + Failure + Failure = ______________.

What answer did you reach? Did you answer, “Failure?” If so, you are probably right. It is certainly possible that a person will remain on a destructive path and follow one disastrous decision with another.

Or, did you answer, “Success”? If you did, you are right! Success may breed success, but no one has ever succeeded without experiencing failure along the way!

Did you know…

1. Babe Ruth struck out 1,330 times in his career? Of course, none of us remember all of those failures. We remember, instead, that he hit 714 homeruns!
2. Thomas Edison failed nearly 2,000 times before he discovered the right filament for the incandescent light bulb?
3. JC Penney went bankrupt in his first business venture and later lost $40 million when the stock market crashed in 1929, but recovered to build the first great retail chain?

Ruth, Edison, and Penney…three of the greatest names in American history. Each experienced more than his share of failure, but we remember their successes. Why? Because they never gave up and they never gave in to their circumstances.

Legendary football coach, Mike Ditka observed is fond of saying, “Success isn’t permanent and failure isn’t fatal.” Billionaire Malcolm Forbes adds, “Failure is success if we learn from it.”

Perhaps you are drowning in a river of debt. Bad luck, bad timing, maybe even bad decisions have conspired to bring you to a place of financial difficulty. You can transform that debt into wealth. You can stop the bleeding and begin the healing.

Here are a few key points to transforming debt into wealth:

1. Consolidating debt is not the answer. It has to be eliminated, or transformed into assets.
2. If you always do what you have always done, you will always be what you have always been.
3. Change is not easy, but it is essential. You have to change the way you approach your debt and the way you amass your assets.
4. Compound interest compounds debt exponentially, but it works the other way, too…when you are the one earning it rather than paying it. Albert Einstein called compound interest the greatest mathematical discovery he ever saw. He said those who understand it profit from it, while those who don’t understand it never finish paying for it.
5. Debt becomes wealth because its elimination has the two-fold effect of eliminating high interest being paid on the debt and creating interest income through investment.
6. Nearly 100% of the people who will read this article already have the means to transform debt into wealth. It isn’t about how much you make, because this is a sliding scale. Debt is almost always proportionate to income because you will only have the ability to amass a certain amount of debt based on your income and ability to gain credit.
7. Hopelessness is a feeling, not a fact. The only hopeless person is the one who gives up.

Debt elimination is one thing. Transformation is another. It is being done every day by people just like you. You can do it, too. But you have to do it. It won’t just happen on its own.

Here’s to your success!
