Today is traditionally known as Easter Monday. Most Christian churches officially celebrated the resurrection of Jesus Christ yesterday. I am so grateful for His sacrifice and victory over sin and death in order that I may live an empowered and confident life. Even though I have known Jesus all my life, I continued to live in fear and slavery until two years ago. We attended a Liberty Conference and heard Andy Andrews speak for the first time. His words inspired me to "burn the boats" of so-called job security and become an entrepreneur along with Ed. Since I had never really done this before, I had to learn how to think differently.
You see, one of our little heard of basic needs is the need for time structuring. In order to thrive and feel productive as human beings, we must have some structuring of our activities. Otherwise, we just wander aimlessly in our thoughts and actions with no clear purpose. When we sell our time to an employer, this need is taken care of for us. We are told what time to report to work, what time to take a break, when to eat lunch and when we can go home. Of course, the job itself dictates how we spend our time working. As a nurse in a busy family practice clinic, I was quite good at multi-tasking as I feverishly evaluated and cared for the patients in our office, while answering telephone messages at every available moment. I went home at the end of 10 1/2 hours totally exhausted, only to do the same thing the next day.
The fact that I had little say-so in how to spend my working hours was bad enough. Worse than that was the paucity of vacation time I was allowed. Like so many people of the 21st century, I felt little control over my situation. After all, there are bills to pay and a retirement to plan for, right? How had I allowed myself to sell my time, which represents my life, for so little in return? (Basically a very small paycheck) Is there security in slavery? Yes, knowing there will be enough money to survive at a basic level. Is there freedom to dream, travel, visit, and be inspired by God and others? Not when the master is a boss with a narrow agenda. We were all created for a great purpose. And we only have a brief amount of time to realize and achieve that purpose.
My main purpose is to glorify my creator with my life, which isall that I think, say and do. As a part of this purpose, I seek to share this knowledge with all who have ears to hear. As a home based business entrepreneur, I market myself as a leader with an answer. Millions of people worldwide are eager to find a way to free themselves from slavery and live their true purpose. Having found that way myself, I am ready to share what I know. God showed me a better way. He opened my eyes to the freedom He wants me to have over my life and time. Money is a tool for making things happen so of course He wants us to have as much as we can be good stewards of in order to achieve our divine purpose.
The way I learned to make such a radical change in my life was to become a product of our 90 day personal development home study course. I continue to be a student of this course even after 3 years! I can't say that about any of the undergraduate or graduate courses I have taken! And then I attended the Liberty and Summit Conferences to take myself to even higher levels. It really is that simple and how I learned to have phenomenal success in this home business. I am closer to God, to my husband, and people in general than ever. What a powerful way to live! We all deserve this life.
To your purpose and power!

How To Accelerate Results in This Simple Business
Everyday, Monday through Friday, at 11:00 AM EST, I am blessed to be able to listen to a Wake Up To Success Call. This call is hosted by our company, Liberty League International, and the leader who masterminds the call is usually Tony Rush. Tony is a guy we have known since we became associates here almost 3 years ago. He has mentored, inspired, and encouraged me on many occasions. This week has been no exception.
This week's wake-up topic has been "certainty." This is a word most of us don't think about often. It's especially not one the masses think about because they are on autopilot much of the time and actually think very little. If they (and I used to be one) started thinking, they would realize that their lives are not nearly as fulfilling as they envisioned when they were children. So the first question I started asking myself when I started to think was, "What can I do differently that will take my life to a new level?" I didn't want to leave this earth without having achieved my true purpose.
The answer for me has been to just make up my mind (Andy Andrews says to have a decided heart) and take the action to achieve this purpose. Where to start? First of all, I have to ask myself if achieving my purpose is possible. If I have more doubt than faith, then I can forget it right now. How can I have faith in achieving something I've never achieved before? Look around! Have others achieved it? The fact is, if God has put a desire in my heart, He has also provided a way for me to achieve this desire. So now I seek out the company of those who have achieved goals on a level with the ones I now have. I hang out with them, watch what they do and how they talk, and simply know that my desires have a certain outcome.
This sounds very simple, I know. Tony did a great job of making a graph that depicts the steps to take from unbelief to certainty. After all, if you don't even believe something is going to happen for you, you won't take any action to make it happen. See how important belief is? For example I want a new Volvo V70. I have been looking at them online and in the showroom. I have compared the features of the V70 versus the XC90 and know that the V70 will better serve me. Tomorrow I am going to test drive one and discuss with our friend, Bob, how soon I can be in possession of my new car. This has gone from wishing and hoping to taking the actual steps to to making the desire a reality.
So look at your dreams. Are they dusty? Have you been afraid to even think about them? Are you guilty of using such excuses as "I'm too old,", "I'm too young," "I don't have any education," "This is not a good time because of the economy."? Remember that success in any area begins with belief, which leads to hope, which leads to action. Once you are taking action, know with certainty that your goal is about to be achieved. If you want to know more about how this works, contact me. It's what I do for a living. In my amazingly simple business, I just show others what is possible.

If It's So Amazingly Simple.....
So, I sat here yesterday and this morning scratching my head. You see, I've talked to a number of people this week who claim they want to earn at least $100,000 a year. They're working too many hours, never see their children, don't make enough money to do anything but scrape by, etc. Then, I present what I do and how I do it, and most of them are reluctant to simply do what it takes to change their lives.
As I think about successful people, I ask myself what is different about the person who earns $30,000 a month from the person who only earns $30,000 a year? Belief is the first on the list. One has to believe it is possible to earn in a month what most people only earn in a year. The second is deservability. Do only 3% of us deserve wealth in our lives? Of course not - we were all created equally in the sight of God. And the third and very important difference is determination.
You can talk about wanting something all day long but you have to be determined to make it happen for it to manifest itself. The universe is very abundant and gives us opportunities everyday to excel and create more in our lives. Our job is simply to recognize those opportunities and do whatever it takes for as long as it takes to realize our goals. Andy Andrews says that successful people are different because they "persist without exception."
The secret here is that we each have within our minds and hearts to create anything we desire. Those who truly believe that fact and then take the action to bring our desires into reality are really living. I thank God everyday that I woke up and realized this before it was too late. How about you? Are you ready to change your life? It's so amazingly simple and only requires a decision.

Live On Purpose and Make a Difference
Our life and business rocks so much that I can't keep quiet about it any longer. As I sit here on this spring day looking out my window at Lake Murray and the budding trees, I realize that I envisioned this 10 years ago. We owned this property then but were living and working in Florida. If we were lucky, we were able to vacation here 3 times a year, never for more than a week at a time and sometimes only for 3 or 4 days. During one of those visits, I distinctly remember closing my eyes and picturing myself sitting here and working from a computer in my home. I had no idea exactly what kind of work I would be doing, but I knew it would provide a comfortable income and lifestyle. I also knew I would be fulfilling my purpose in life and making a difference to someone.
So here I am living that dream!! I am so blessed to have a husband who enjoys living this same dream lifestyle as I. After all, we have been married 31 years and are not carbon copies of each other. But in the things that matter most, marriage, family, church, and work, we agree totally in fidelity, integrity, giving of our time and resources, having fun, and being grateful to God for everything. Does a life like this just happen? Is it simply the result of luck? Or do we have the power to create any kind of life we desire?
Being a Christian of strong faith and a student of personal development - yes, the two compliment rather than contradict each other - I know without a doubt that our God-given free will, empowered by the Holy Spirit, gives us the ability to bring about anything we truly desire. I am certainly living proof of that. Seeing this happen in one area of my life encourages me to set my sights on even loftier goals. Every one of us was created for a distinct purpose and will live until that purpose is fulfilled. I probably will not know the entire scope of my purpose until my life is over. However, I do know the things in life I feel passionate about, so I know they are related to my purpose.
Working 10 hours a day for a corporation did not inspire me at all. Worse yet, it robbed me of creative energy and laid claim to one of my most precious resources, my TIME. Thank goodness I had envisioned a different lifestyle for myself and recognized the opportunity to achieve that lifestyle when it showed up. For me it was the business opportunity with Liberty League International. Not only could we now have the income to live according to our desires, our personal development products taught us how to think and believe in a new and powerful way. The point here is that even though you may want your life to look differently, you are going to have to take a leap of faith at some point to make that difference happen. One of my purposes on earth is to show others that change and success are possible for them. No one is stuck where they are unless they choose to be stuck.
I feel so passionate about the possibilities for my life and your life too. We all suffer when one of us chooses to "play it safe" rather than follow a dream. My favorite author, Andy Andrews, says that everything we do makes a difference. I want to make a difference with my life and honor my creator by achieving the purpose I was put here for. If you are feeling nudged to make a difference with your life, please take action on it. If you'd like to talk to me about that decision, I stand ready to listen and offer what knowledge and insight I have. This very well could be the opportunity you have been looking for to afford you new freedom. This could be the vehicle for you to live your life on purpose and make a difference for all of us.
To your success,
