Rants, Raves, and off the wall opinions and more

 As of this date and the writing of this post it has become abundantly clear that trying to live a business life without some form of SOCIAL MEDIA is nearly impossible.  Of course, there are the main antagonists: Facebook, snapchat, X, Instagram, etc... Learn them and use them to the maximum. That is IF you want to make more money... That's it for now....

 Ok, some would argue that it's not such a wonderful time to be alive, but at the other end of the spectrum there are people who say the opposite. One thing for certain is that it is a very crowded world and getting busier all the time.  But through it all just know that God is still in control of it all, no matter what. Trust it and believe it.

 Just a little something that God laid on my heart that maybe someone needs to hear.... Philippians 3 is a very important chapter in the bible. For a lot of reasons: 1. It allows us to not only focus on our faith in Christ, but as to why believe in the first place. 2. We don't just have faith because because the law required it, we have faith because we believe. 3. There are people that need to see the light that you shine, that there is value in faith. Because we walk  daily and strive for the prize that is the higher calling. In other words, We will be with Christ one day. 4. Of course there are those who do not believe but will make it their business to tear you down any way they can. It's also their purpose to distort the truth and twist it to their advantage. It's funny in some ways it's like running a business. There is always competition, and they are NOT there to help YOU make money.  Be careful, stay alert, and good profits. Most of all stay prayed up.

 Another fine rant and rave or something brought to you by me! And now on with the show.... Do you get what some people refer to as an epiphany? or a moment of reflection? It brings you a moment of clarity and sharpness that seems impossible and as it disappears so fast you ask yourself "Was it really there?" We all get these moments and most deny them, but what IF they are moments that are given to us to be something more that a passing phase?  I think they are a message directly from what some call a higher power, but it's all the same. It's GOD trying to nudge you into a clearer line of thinking.  Ever moment and thought is tailored to each person uniquely and for that specific moment in time.  If you allow yourself to carry that moment into a complete thought, then guess what? An explanation will follow.  Has this ever happened to you? You don't necessarily have to be religious or what ever for this to happen and you are by absolutely NOT crazy in any way sh...

 Ok here we are all the way into 2025 and I'm still here. I realize that a blog is no longer the preferred medium anymore, but it's a good way to keep a sort of journal of my thoughts and things I come across that me get someone's interest. If it helps then feel free to drop me a line or not and let me know. Anyway, I'll check in when I have something new. Thank you for now.

 Ok, to put it plain and simple...AI is a lot like what the Internet was back in the 90's (for those of us who were around back then). It's a fundamental change to the ALL aspects of our entire lives. It is also in its infancy and much like the ever evolving internet, it will change us as well. For those who harness it now, there is lots of money to be made, but the niches are filling up fast. When the second wave rolls in, there will be MORE money to be made, and so forth. Those who RECOGNIZE the process in advance are the ones who PROFIT the most.  There is also a lot of research in AI that needs to harnessed. AS I always say: DO THE HOMEWORK--->Know what you want, pick a niche, stick with it. IT CAN BE DONE! Good luck and as always I'll leave the light on for you!

 For the unfamiliar I'll give a brief but simple explanation. SEO, search engine Optimization: It is a simple matter of making your links, websites, meta data, ranking, and etc...relevant to the people who read them. But it is Sooooooo much more. Keeping up with SEO is an ongoing process, that can make or break the afore mention items. It can also draw in new people and weed out the old. Search engines are constantly changing and you have to change with them or get left behind. At the end of the day it comes down to whether you want to make money or lose money. Stay tuned....more to come! :)

So, Here it is Christmas 2023 and it has been a busy year. A.I. was in the main stream and will probably continue into 2024 and beyond. The main point being the new A.I. scenario presents us with a whole world of possibilities to make an income. I don't just mean letting A.I. do the work for you, but using it like a tool, much like the PC has evolved over time, so will A.I. It's a matter of those who recognize and innovate like we have in the past, so goes the same into the future. So, that being said, Merry Christmas and a Happy New year. Or whatever you call it.

 Anyone out there in google land(that's about everywhere these days) who would like to improve your skills on all things google and more here is a page for you: just search skillshop or goto skillshop.withgoogle.com   There is a LOT of information there no matter who you are...Beginner or seasoned veteran googler. You can even add this to your Resume after getting certified! At least check it out...Who knows? You might thank your self one day or even thank me... Have a blessed day.

 Just a quick note to anyone still here....I'm still here and getting ready for the dreaded TAX season....blehhh! Not a lot to talk about today, but I do have some rants and raves for another day. Until then...?

 It's been a long and beleaguered year for me....I'm still here. I'm monitoring things and watching as affiliate marketing twists and turns as every season goes by. The internet itself literally looks nothing like it did just a few years ago and it is still changing. Into what I don't know, but just maybe we can predict some of the trends that are coming and ride the wave of prosperity. Until then have a Merry Christmas, Happy holiday, or whatever you celebrate. Hopefully the new year will be better! As always the light is on: Humble Servant 

       So here we are end of 2021...let me recap by saying that 2020 for a lot of people and most of the world around us was a rough point in history. Although, quite honestly 2021 wasn't much better to write about. We have a mad virus that twists, turns, and mutates every 5 minutes. And who know where it's going to end. IMHO, there is a lot of fodder for the doomsayers, so use your own judgement. If you FEEL safer vaccinated then do it OR if you DON'T  feel like the vaccine will help you and your family, loved ones, or whomever then by all means don't get it. This is an argument for a whole different arena that I'm not getting into here.     Much like business opportunities, youy need to be aware of what your getting into because truth is subjective on both sides. By this I mean, Someone can tell you a half baked truth and you might buy into it, fail and blame others for YOUR own failure(or ignorance). There are limitless programs that say "I make $10...

Ok, I've slacked up a little, ok maybe a lot in writing this blog. Not a lot to say except here it is october and we are finally getting some cooler weather. However, even with the economy in turmoil there are still a LOT of hot opportunities to make money. The problem is this: In a soupy economy like this things get murky and we don't see clearly what we need to do to better ourselves and our businesses. Keep GOD first in your life and all else falls into place. He is a light unto our feet and light unto our path, so that if you truly trust him then he will guide you in the right direction. HE WILL NOT FAIL YOU! YOU WILL FAIL HIM FIRST! Set your goals and stay focused on your objectives. NEVER give up. 99 percent of all startups fail in the first year because they just quit. BE the one percent! BE a Success!!! Until next time....Keep the faith!

 Of course it's 2021, and hopefully we all have a new outlook on the horizon. New, ideas, new business opportunities. Follow your life calling and listen to the inner voice that GOD is calling you to do. Best of luck and keep praying.

 This is something that has been near and dear to my heart for a long time and it needs to be said. What is your purpose in business? In other words, Why are you starting a business in the first place? Contrary to some of my previous posts, owning a business is not ALWAYS just about making money. Somewhere along the way the business must be self sustaining, which is rudimentary of any business venture all the way from a lemonade stand to wall street and beyond.     Somehow, it also has to be fulfilling. a reason to be in business beyond the obvious. It has to not only make you happy, but it has to fit in to the flow of the community and have a purpose, otherwise there will be no customers for your business. Even as a business fails it becomes a lot like real life. People see their life flash before them and wonder what went wrong, or what went right in some cases. I've recently seen family members and others that seem to be hanging on for no reason at all other than just ...

Okay, so Ill be the first to admit I WISH there was a cure for this but unfortunately the treatment is rather elusive and doesn't care to be found. I could go on and on and on....and on for days on end (maybe I should write a book! LOL!) about the ins and outs of how this seemingly incurable disease (I call it that lightly) has affected the halls of congress for decades and the world population in general, but I'm not going to instead I'm just going to give you some food for thought and some minor direction and IF you come to ANY conclusion that might be helpful then please share it in the comments. There a some links below and a brief idea of what stupid really is and point you in the direction of what to do about it.  That's my rant on the soapbox for the day. I'm on this island all alone in an ocean of anarchy, but the peace and solitude GOD has given me has only left me with one question...why hasn't he called me home yet? Anyway, peace be with you Until nex...

Just a quick update that I AM still here and for anyone following this blog hopefully I will be adding new content shortly. Be alert and stay safe in this brave new world of covid-19.

Merry Christmas to all and to all good profits!

Ok so there is a lot that I could rant and rave about these days, but maybe I'm just feeling a bit nostalgic these days. After all it is the holiday season and in short it is a time for us all to be thankful for what we have. It doesn't matter if you are the richest person on earth or the poorest, because you have life in you and are blessed by the ALMIGHTY creator for a purpose. Wanna know that purpose, simply get down on one knee and ask. The other thing is to be humble and kind to one another no matter who you are or where you are at. Love one another at least for now. Ok, enough for now. Merry Christmas and Amen!

The world we live in today may be the same planet many us grew up on, but the world around us is constantly changing and evolving in some ways that are very unpredictable and in others that are very predictable. The treatment of the elderly will ALMOST always end badly. We are better at hiding it today than yesterday, but it happens. If you have to live by what you see in the news, then we are all doomed. There is a bright spot in all if this. You must live with a solid foundation. That foundation is undoubtedly based on something bigger that yourself. I personally put my trust in God because he is more than just my higher power, he is above all else and I owe my very existence to him. Some of you may not believe like I do that there is a larger purpose for everything in life, whether it is good or bad, that is what makes the world a place for all of us, but that is your choice and I respect that. We live, we learn we grow. No matter what you believe in, you will always come back to t...
