Where do I begin. I started as a member here so many years ago and this has been a great group. I made money, I lost money, overall though, I build lasting friendships that I still have to this day and that is a wonderful thing. This year has been the face of change for me both personally and professionally. I discovered that I had a talent for writing and I was able to turn that talent into a company that is continuing to grow and prosper.

My company is eBook writing services and we specialize in writing articles and eBooks for those who are looking to build their brand or to promote their products and services.

I am so proud of this accomplishment and knowing that I have built something that helps people and makes a difference in people's lives.

I am always looking for new clients, new support staff, new writers and more. If you are in need of my services I would love to hear from you, alternatively if you are a writer or you have a skill that you think could benefit my company send me a message. Each month our goal is to increase our numbers. As we continue to grow we look towards the future with a great deal of pride and joy for what has been accomplished in such a short period of time.

Thank you for allowing me to share this with you today.

OK, so I know this may sound crazy right but I have decided to do it again...what do I mean by that? I am joining a Network Marketing company which is nuts in theory BUT the reason why I did this is because this one was so different it reminded me more of a passive income opportunity though it is NOT a passive income opportunity. OK, I guess I should explain it better.

First, you pay out of pocket just one time. This is one payment that is not small but not the largest payment ever to be presented in the history of Network marketing and especially not the most I have ever paid in my history but I won't go into that here. You won't have to make another payment until you have earned enough in commissions to afford the fee to come out of your commissions. Let me first start by saying I have never ever seen a company do this before and I have been in a lot of companies in my day. Especially in network marketing where you have to pay monthly for things that you may or may not want or need.

Next, the team I joined under is a team that is building this as a group effort. What that means and what it meant for me is that I didn't join directly under the person that told me about it rather I joined under the person that needed some extra help. To me that is fine especially considering that those that join under me would be given that same courtesy. This is not to suggest that no effort should be put in but simply to illustrate that you would not be left alone in this one.

The other thing that I liked about this was there is no time frame to reaching the goal. The goal being 6 personally referred members (which can as I mention come from the team effort) so you don't have to worry about being billed again until you have reached your goal and have enough in commissions to pay for your next membership fee.

Payment processors seem to be a huge problem these days with so many to choose from these companies end up taking huge chunks of your money (off the top) just to move the funds around. I have decided that I am only going to stick with the small few and if that means I can't join x,y, and z...so be it. Too much stress and lost earnings to try to get it done the other way. This way I control my income and I control the payment processors that I am going to use. This makes me happy.

Recently I started investing in Whirlwind, RLP, Goldenpath and a few others. To date I have cycled once through whirlwind and through goldenpath though the website for goldenpath has been down for a while. Not sure if the site will come back up so not going to stress about it. Plan on getting into network empire here shortly have already registered but not funded yet. I was looking at other choices first but pretty confident that I am going to go ahead and move forward with network empire.

My other investments are doing well, these are the ones that I had before these newest options. All expect for T2 which bottomed out and I have not heard back from them. Not worried because I already made my money back but do feel not so great about the communication. I get it is challenging to run a problem that has failed but communication is the key to success in any venture. When I had to disband my group it was sad but everyone knew and heard from me and no one walked away with a sour taste in their mouth and for me that is essential. At the end of the day all you have is your reputation. Good or bad it belongs to you. For me, I want to accurately reflect the person that I am and that means I always communicate even when I have nothing to say. It is about connecting. That's all I have for today.

So the future for me personally has been pretty darn exciting. After getting my priorities straight I now have a college fund in place for my children, I have a savings account that is growing and I have investments spread out between high risk and low risk and I don't use any of the family budget for my investments I only use the money that I earn from my writing company. It is pretty amazing to get to this point in my life. Of course I know that there is always room for growth and that is why I am back. I don't know that I will ever spend hours on the board but I do know that I am here and available to answer any questions if needed. I had good friends that were here for me and so I am going to do the same for you.

From my last post well over a year ago you all know that I have been spending a lot of time focusing on building myself up which was great because it was needed. It is good to come back a stronger person than I was before. I just launched my blog which I am pretty excited about. The blog is going to share my ventures with you so that you can see what I did to get to where I am today. I am a full time entrepreneur and writer and it is fun. Not all days are fun of course but most are and that is all I could ask for.

Hope you check out my new blog at mydreamincome.info

Would love the support!

I never thought the day would come when I would have to say goodbye to my 1 Team 1 Family Group website. As my domain name draws closer to expiring I look back and all the changes the site has gone through and all the friends I had made with it.

Deciding not to renew it was a tough choice for me. I am going in a different direction in my life and the site no longer can do for me what I need it to do.

My plans for this year are big and in June I will be making some major changes in my life and in my finances.

Saying goodbye is always hard to do but it is especially hard for me now. No one likes change. I know that it is time, it is just so hard to say goodbye to yesterday.

If I could do one thing to express my gratitude for the friends I have made and the things I have learned it would be to try to give something back in return.

I may not have a whole lot but what I do have I want to share with you.

Please download this gift from me to you as a way of saying thank you for being some of the Best group of people around.

P.S. I also came across this free training that has really helped me to build my business.
For the first time in years I am starting to make money and not with doublers and high risk programs.
I am making money with a business I had been with for months and never made a dime.

Now, after taking this course I am turning my losses around. I could not be happier about
what 2007 will hold for me and if I am successful I am going to take as many MMGers with me as possible.

I would strongly recommend you visit this website and sign up for your free training.
It could mean the difference between just getting by and really succeeding.

It is working wonders for me.

Happy New Year!

So much has happened this year. It is even hard to know where to begin.

With the fall of Studio Traffic it was like a dark cloud had fallen over me. I had invested $5,000 and became a member of staff. I believed in the company so completely because I saw what it had done for my brother.

While I was working there I saw the changes and initially believed they were positive changes. When I discovered shortly thereafter that put on ahold on my brother's funds I was very upset and it became difficult to do my job. It had become personal for me, even though I still received my paycheck they had cut him off. He had been the reason I even joined to begin with.

Well, one day we all attended a meeting. The meeting was supposed to tell us how many people were going to be let go in order to keep the company from going under. The meeting was anything but about how we were going to keep the company from going under. The meeting was a way to tell us we were all fired without having to do it individually.

I was not paid for 3 months of work and whatever was left in the Studio Pay account was gone forever. I found out some months later that the people who were running Studio Pay kept all the money that was supposed to go to at least pay the staff for the hours they worked but they decided it was not their responsibilty to pay the staff so they just kept the money. As for the founder? No one knows.

After this devasting blow I felt I could take no more. I had lost Wall Street Alliance the year before, now Studio Traffic and then a few short months later Pajama was gone. I was not suprised when I heard the news. I knew that the ladies had done their best, the times had changed. It was a simple as that.

I joined HYIP's and lost money, nothing substantial but enough to help me feel the pain of my failure. I took a full-time job, it was the only thing I could do at that point to stay afloat. For me, hope was lost.

I tapped into a part of myself that had been closed for a long time. It was a time for reflection for me. A time to look at my life and see what I had done with it. I wrote a book. At first it was to see if I could and then it was to see if I could make something special. When the publishers contacted me back and told me my book was going to be published I was beside myself.

I had done something I had wanted to do for so many years but my desire to make money had managed to come before my desire to create. My Book is a collection of short stories. The stories are graphic murder mysteries and should be released in about 1 year. If you would like a copy just PM me with your full name and mailing address so I can add you to the pre-release list. I won't use your information for any other purpose. That is not my way.

As you know my group had also dispanded this year. I redesigned the website to promote my newest and last online project. A Lottery Club. I don't know yet if it will be successful. I have been watching though you have not heard from me in a while. I still see. I saw what happened to PAS and 12 Daily Pro, and so many other programs it would be hard to name them all. All I know is that this club had been in business since 1994 and has a satisfactory record with the better business bureau. They are reachable via email, fax, telephone, and in person. I am part of a good team and I am trying something I have never tried before.

I don't know what 2007 will hold for me. Not sure if my book will succeed or if it will fail, if the Lottery Club will turn out to be the best thing that has even happened to me or just another program where I lost my shirt.

2006 for me has been a time of change. I am no longer the same person I was back in 2005. I suppose I never will be again. I am grateful though for seeng my son turn 2 years old TOMORROW! watching him grow and learn new things. I am grateful for getting past all the fights with my husband and for getting back on solid ground. I am grateful for all the things that tore me down. It was those things I used to help build me up again.

I consider you part of my family. Though I have been silent I have not forgotten you. I hope you will not forget me.

It puts things into perspective because it truly can be something as simple as an adjustment in your change of perspective:


A 92 year-old, petite, well-poised and proud man, who is fully dressed each morning by eight o'clock, with his hair fashionably coifed and shaved perfectly applied, even though he is legally blind, moved to a nursing home today. His wife of 70 years recently passed away, making the move necessary. After many hours of waiting patiently in the lobby of the nursing home, he smiled sweetly when told his room was ready.

As he maneuvered his walker to the elevator, I provided a visual description of his tiny room, including the eyelet sheets that had been hung on his window.

"I love it," he stated with the enthusiasm of an eight-year-old having just been presented with a new puppy.

"Mr. Jones, you haven't seen the room; just wait."

"That doesn't have anything to do with it," he replied.
"Happiness is something you decide on ahead of time. Whether I like my room or not doesn't depend on how the furniture is arranged ... it's how I arrange my mind. I already decided to love it "It's a decision I make every morning when I wake up. I have a choice; I can spend the day in bed recounting the difficulty I have with the parts of my body that no longer work, or get out of bed and be thankful for the ones that do.

Each day is a gift, and as long as my eyes open I'll focus on the new day and all the happy memories I've stored away. Just for this time in my life.

Old age is like a bank account. You withdraw from what you've put in.

So, my advice to you would be to deposit a lot of happiness in the bank account of memories! . Thank you for your part in filling my Memory bank. I am still depositing." Remember the five simple rules to be happy:

1. Free your heart from hatred.
2. Free your mind from worries.
3. Live simply.
4. Give more.
5. Expect less.
