Personal Economy

Hey in this economy where hardly anything is stable except instability, you definitely need a plan B, or C, or D.........You need to take a long hard look into something you may not even understand or ever considered, such as a business model like network marketing.

Oh some people may think oh that is a scam or a pyramid scheme. Personally, I would venture to say that almost everything in our economic structure has began to look like a scam lately. You don't have to look too far to notice that.

You may not have lost your job, but you probably know someone who has lost theirs. You may not have invested in the stock market, or 401k and lost money, but you more than likely know someone who has had that happen to them.

The stock market has taken many bad blows and so has much of corporate America. Think about the bailouts, car manufacturer struggles, banking system failures, textile industry down-sizings, real estate market crashes and slow-downs, home building industry tough times, resturaunt closures, and many other factors have contributed to our jobless rate. Even as of late our Government has struggled to an unheard of level, even to the point of a shut-down scare, resulting in a bad credit score of their own (AA).

You know the average american that is struggling in this economy can't even get a decent loan with a good credit rating. Yet our government has been really struggling with their credit rating. How long before their is a call to the carpet from those holding our debt in their palms.

It almost seems that the network marketing industry is the last business model for the American Dream to receive a re-birth from. America sure could use all the help it could get right now.

Network marketing, what a wonderful way to bring unity to the country even if it is on a small scale. You have a product, that can be used by the average consumer, the distributor, the staff, the owners, and all the people that they come in contact with, either on line or face-to-face. Normally, you will have a pay -plan set up to benefit everyone from the seasoned big-time network marketer, down to someone who just likes the product and wants to only be a customer, buying it at wholesale. There is something of benefit for everyone involved in network marketing.

Network marketing creates new jobs for the builders/ carpenters to either build the facilities, add on to existing buildings, or remodel. Land and property sales are usually involved creating jobs for the real estate sales people, which in turn provides  work for mortgage companies or banks, improving the banking industry. Then usually attorneys are involved, as well as, title companies. Then you have taxes that have to be paid on the properties, which in turn employs tax preparers. This in turn causes jobs for auditors, and the government will then get their peace of the pie.

Then your product has to be developed/ mass produced, which employs people to accomplish these foundational tasks. You have to ship whatever product produced, which puts money back into the shipping industry, Fed Ex, UPS, and even the United States Postal Service. This might be a little bit of a solution toward the delima of the postal industry down-sizing. This would save many jobs.

Then the money that is earned by the distributors of a network marketing business, can be re-distributed throughout the spectrum of the economy that our country embraces.

The team effort to make your network marketing business a success is a much needed unity effort in society today all across America and the world. You see all the fighting, rioting, terrorist attacks, and all the political up-hevals around the world, not all of it is because of money, but it is over power, money, or the lack thereof.

Instead of fighting over power in a selfish manner, why not embrace the people helping people teamwork effort that network marketing brings to the economic table. It causes people to come together in the business realm like very few other opportunity's can offer.

Are you ready to make it happen for you, your family, friends, and others you come in contact with, and even make it happen for our country.

This is the perfect time in the history of our country to give a jump start to our economy, by joining up with the network marketing company of your choice. What you have a need for or passion for is something you will enjoy promoting, using, and earning an income, working from home or wherever you go.

I think we all can use more energy and mental clarity. Also, I think with all the problems with people who have struggled with eating to much or being over weight, even extremely obese, can benefit from a product that not only gives you the energy to accomplish more, but the appetite suppressors to help in your weight-loss goals.

Sharing Your Passion Can Form Life-Long Friendships

Have you ever been to a public place like a flea-market, shared something that you were excited about, and found a life long friend.

Well, my wife Glenda and I, not my wife at that time, but my best friend, had that very thing happen. You might be wondering what it was that we talked about that was so interesting. It was a nutritional-herbal product that had helped our health.

At the time this couple we met were not really open to a product like that. They were very skeptical, because it had ephedra in it. Although, it had no more in it than a cup of coffee. They still were negative about it.

We talked for a long time about that subject, as well as, other subjects. One subject being about our faith in Jesus, and about our church affiliations. We soon began to relate to each other.

Our focus changed from that of trying to sell our product to trying to make new friends. It was an interesting change that took place that day. We not only sold a bottle of our herbal product to this couple, but we also invited them to our church, and exchanged phone numbers.

They really liked the product and came to our church to visit. We introduced them to our pastors, and we all went out to eat. They started coming to church with us on a regular basis, until his job moved him to Arizona.

We have kept in touch over the years. We at least try to get together at Christmas time. This year after Christmas we plan to meet them in Branson Missouri, and share a condo together to have a wonderful time of fellowship with them.

You never know what kind of impact you can have on yourself or on others, simply by sharing something that you are passionate about. Something that can help your health, to me is something to be passionate about.

This story I told is just a short version of course, of our friendship and interaction with this couple. Their Names are Bob and Rocky (Veronica). They are a wonderful Christian couple, who enjoy life.



This is one of the reasons that I love the idea of network marketing or multi-level marketing. It is not just the money, that part is great, but more so the friendships that you make. Sometimes, even life-friendships can be formed like Bob and Rocky, pictured above.

You never know the affects that the people you meet can have on your life, and you may not know the impact that you can have on their lives.

So, I give the network marketing industry a thumbs up, especially in this economy with so many people out of work. It is the perfect time to do network marketing, many people are already at home, looking for something to help them survive in this economy.

If You Change Your Words Can You Change Your World?

Growing Up I knew that I was loved. My mother always tried to make sure of that. However, I still grew up with a negative outlook on life and about myself. Can you relate?

Also, I began to not only think negative things, but I began to speak negative things. I didn't see the glass half-full, but I saw the glass half-empty. When others made fun of me at a young age, I joined in and made fun of myself. I guess that I was looking for their acceptance.

You know there is a scripture in the Bible that says, "the power of life and death is in the tongue." Have you ever seen someone beat down with words for a long time, most of the time they have a poor self image.

Our words have power to affect not only how we view ourselves, but they can even affect the world around us. Think about it for a moment. I had a mother that nurtured me and made sure I knew that I was loved. Yet, I still had a poor self esteem and took  to heart what others said about me. How much more would someone have a poor self-image, if they didn't know they were loved by their parents.

My advice to you is don't allow what the opinions of others say have a negative affect on you. Sometimes, we need the input of others to help us and shape us into better people. The Bible says in Proverbs, "as Iron sharpens Iron, so one man (or woman) sharpens another."

Always, try to encourage others not put them down. Another quote I like to make is, "the kindest words ever spoken is an unkind word unsaid." That speaks volumes in terms of relating to others. If everyone thought of this before they spoke something bad about someone else, the world would be a much better place, as well as quieter.

Can we change the world around us by changing our words about ourselves, others, or even our own circumstances? What  do you think? This Youtube Video is about a minute long, and it gives an example of changing your world by changing your words. Check out the video, I believe it will touch your heart!

A Story Of Hope During Tragedy!

A Story of Hope!
If Your Child Dies, There is Still Hope!

My 22-year old daughter Crystal passed away December 6th, 2009 after over a year battle with what started as a bleeding issue, triggered from food poisoning.

She went through much suffering, many treatments, surgeries, blood transfusions, chemotherapy, colon removal, ending in tragedy a week later. 


 I sure do miss her a lot! Daddy's Little Girl!


We are never really prepared for the unexpected death of a loved one. Unless you have been there, it is hard to really understand what someone goes through after losing their child, no matter how old, or how it happened.

Sometimes, people will get angry and take it out on others. Some people may get angry with God, even though He truly understands. He lost a child too.

Others may get depressed and turn inward with their pain.

 Busyness, may be a way for many to ease their loss, or at least to take their mind off of it.

 There are some exceptions to these reactions, because there are also those that handle their pain will, pray, and go through the grieving process well.

 In my opinion, the grieving process is something we each have to go through, and we have to deal with it in our own way.

 I want to share some hope with you that has really helped me to deal with my loss of Crystal (Daddy's little girl).

A lot of well meaning people: friends, family, church members, counselors, psychiatrist, and others offer to the best of their abilities to console or comfort us. This may help us through some of the tough times and give us hope.

 Something that really has helped me is that shortly after my daughter passed away, my wonderful wife, Glenda made a statement that stuck with me. She really missed Crystal too.

She shared with me a profound statement that Crystal is not suffering anymore, and that she is not just in my past but in my future.

You see she accepted Jesus as her Savior when she was young and had re-dedicated her life to the Lord a year or so before passing.

 So, since I believe that because I am a Christian too that we will have a wonderful Reunion in heaven when I get there. She just got there ahead of me.

This statement is not meant to offend anyone that doesn't believe the way I do, but it is meant to give you a hope too see your loved one again.

 This story will be continued at a later post.

What Is Love?


God is love! Everyone who loves is born of God and knows God! Love is patient, kind, doesn't take into account a wrong suffered with who? : Parents, children, spouses, friends, co-workers, siblings, relatives, business associates, even your enemies.
How hard is it to love someone that shows love to you? Not very hard! But, why not go the extra mile and even love your enemy? When you do that, the results might surprise you sometimes in a positive way.
If you apply this principle it can turn an enemy into a good friend! If people tried to apply these principles the world would be a much better place for all. Sure the possibility of getting hurt is risky. Are people not worth the risk?
Jesus thought so! He risked loving those that loved him, didn't like him, beat him, flogged him, and crucified him. Everyone has a choice to receive his ultimate sacrifice of love--His own life.
That’s how important to God that loving your enemy is, worth His Son! God is love! Jesus wanted to show us what the Father in heaven was really like, Love! Without faith it is impossible to please God! Faith works by love. Faith is the substance of things hoped for and evidence of things you can't quite see yet!
If faith works by love and without faith it is impossible to please God, then don't you think it would be a good idea to walk in love as much as possible?
Most people have heard of the Ten Commandments. Some know them some don't. Some live so strongly by them that they break them without even knowing it! They forget to walk in love!
Jesus was asked a question. What are the greatest commandments? Here is His answer: Love the Lord your God with (all) your heart, soul (mind, will, and emotions), and your strength, and love your neighbor as yourself. On these to things hang the law (Commandments) and the prophets!
In other words when you walk in love you are living out the Ten Commandments! We all could improve on our love walk.
Remember the golden rule? Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. This doesn’t mean do unto others before they do unto you!
Love hopes all things, believes all things (faith), and endures all things! Now out of these three, the greatest is Love!
Multiplied blessings to everyone who reads this blog!

Global Market Key To Successful Business Or Entrepreneurship


Hi my name is Joey and I believe, that in today's society, we are really losing our grip on word of mouth advertising. Really, it has been out of date for a quite a while. It seems as though word of mouth may still be popular with smaller businesses, mom and pop stores, net workers, etc. However, social networks are really taking a bold approach to change word of mouth through friend/business networking to promote, advertise, and get traffic to their sites to expand to a more global market. I believe that going global today is key to a successful business or entrepreneurship.

When I was growing up, my family had a small orchid business. Though we ran some ads, received free advertisements from news media on a few occasions, for the most part, we used word of mouth to advertise. We built a lot of repeat customers even from other states, as well as standing order customers in the cut flower business.

It was all enough for a single mom to raise 3 kids. We never did without, though at times things were tight. We managed to get by for most of my time growing up. But, somewhere along the way the business went downhill due to hurricane damage, family illnesses, family members death, and the usual curve balls in life.

The word of mouth advertising repeat customers decreased sharply. The business ended after I was grown. This is a sad but repeated personal illustration of changes in word of mouth advertising.

The problem was small focus, poor business structure/ system, small geographical area focus, little positive cash flow. If we could have started with more cash flow, better business systems and bigger geographical focus, we could have expanded added employees, and had a much more successful lasting business.

Social Business networks have systems in place to move you in a more global approach to your business and even using some of the past, word of mouth advertising, electronically through internet, videos, networking, etc. Some offer free membership with free ads, revenue sharing, and many other creative ways of drawing in the masses, with upgrade offers including very lucrative pay plans.

They are an excellent way to make friends, build net working relationships, advertise your business or businesses for free. This gives you time to check out the system for yourself, learn your way around and decide if you would like the extras offered to upgraded members. As you probably already know, advertising is not always cheap or free. It is wonderful to have these social business networks available today and some are international, bringing the global community home to you.

Entrepreneurship, can include a wide variety of inventive, intuitive ideas and concepts turned into many times successful small businesses to huge corporations. This is part of the make up of America, and the rest of the industrious countries across the globe. I believe that social business networks provide a great place to market some of those start up idea inventions, products, and services. It provides a platform to reach the masses.

I am a member of several business social networks. You can find the other links on this blog site. However, my favorite is Direct Matches. You can find the link at the bottom of this post. It is a Huge International Business Social Network that you can join for free and advertise for free. Later, you can choose to upgrade and earn as much as $12,000 a week if this is appealing to you, the choice is up to you, with no pressure.

By the way Direct Matches has a Dating Matching Part separate, but I am in the business section.
You can go to my site, Join for Free, and Advertise for Free.

God Bless! See You At The Top!

Our Anniversary Celebration

DON'T GIVE UP IN BUSINESS OR LIFE

Hi! My name is Joey Adamson. My wife Glenda and I enjoy helping other people in more ways than just business. My wife has really taught me a lot about giving. This marketing system, The MLM HitList System, is a very good example of giving. In the past 15 Yrs. plus we have been involved in some way in many different networking businesses. Like most people in networking we have made some mistakes along the way. However, we have been learning from those mistakes. I believe that if you haven't made some mistakes in business, you probably haven't learned much.

Some are well trained and succeed. Some are well trained and don't succeed. Others try to re-invent the wheel. Still others get discouraged and give up. Don't give up-get on board a Powerful-Free system and let it work the web for You.

A word of encouragement: I waited 7&1/2 yrs. for my wife Glenda to agree to marry me. No matter what others said,or what she said deterred me. She believed that we were just best friends. I believed that she would be my wife. It took a lot of prayer, impatience Please!Marry Me!, and then patience finally. Patience, persistence, belief in spite of all the odds paid off. God turned her heart toward marriage. Now, she is my wife(a true GOD-Send) and what a Blessing she is in my life. Guess what I didn't give up and I won the Prize(her heart.)


What Is Love?

GOD IS LOVE!

EVERYONE WHO LOVES IS BORN OF GOD AND KNOWS GOD!

LOVE IS PATIENT, KIND, DOESN'T TAKE INTO ACCOUNT A WRONG SUFFERED!
WITH WHO? PARENTS, CHILDREN, FRIENDS, CO-WORKERS, SIBLINGS, RELATIVES, BUSINESS ASSOCIATES, EVEN YOUR ENEMIES. HOW HARD IS IT TO LOVE SOMEONE THAT SHOWS LOVE TO YOU? NOT VERY HARD! BUT, WHY NOT GO THE EXTRA MILE EVEN WITH YOUR ENEMY?
WHEN YOU DO THAT IT MIGHT SURPRISE YOU SOMETIME. IF YOU APPLY THIS PRINCIPLE IT CAN TURN AN ENEMY INTO A GOOD FRIEND! IF PEOPLE TRIED TO APPLY THESE PRINCIPLES THE WORLD WOULD BE A MUCH BETTER PLACE FOR ALL.
SURE THE POSSIBILITY OF GETTING HURT IS RISKY. ARE PEOPLE NOT WORTH THE RISK?
JESUS THOUGHT SO! HE RISKED LOVING THOSE THAT LOVED HIM, DIDN'T LIKE HIM, BEAT HIM, FLOGGED HIM, AND CRUCIFIED HIM. EVERYONE HAS A CHOICE TO RECEIVE HIS ULTIMATE SACRIFICE OF LOVE--HIS OWN LIFE. THAT'S HOW IMPORTANT TO GOD LOVING YOUR ENEMIES IS--WORTH HIS SON!GOD IS LOVE! JESUS WANTED TO SHOW WHAT THE FATHER IN HEAVEN WAS REALLY LIKE! LOVE!

EVERYONE WHO LOVES IS BORN OF GOD AND KNOWS GOD!

WITHOUT FAITH IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO PLEASE GOD!
FAITH WORKS BY--LOVE--
FAITH--SUBSTANCE OF THINGS HOPED FOR--EVIDENCE OF THINGS YOU CAN'T QUITE SEE YET!
IF FAITH WORKS BY LOVE AND WITHOUT FAITH IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO PLEASE GOD!--THEN DON'T YOU THINK IT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA TO WALK IN LOVE AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE?
MOST HAVE HEARD OF THE TEN COMMANDMENTS.
SOME KNOW THEM SOME DON'T.
SOME LIVE SO STRONGLY BY THEM THEY BRAKE THEM WITHOUT EVEN KNOWING IT! THEY FORGET TO WALK IN LOVE!
JESUS WAS ASKED A QUESTION. WHAT WERE THE GREATEST COMMANDMENTS?
THE ANSWER? LOVE---THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH (ALL)
YOUR HEART, SOUL(MIND, WILL, AND EMOTIONS), AND YOUR STRENGTH, AND LOVE---YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF. ON THESE TWO THINGS HANG THE LAW(COMMANDMENTS) AND THE PROPHETS!
IN OTHER WORDS WHEN YOU WALK IN LOVE YOUR LIVING OUT THE TEN COMMANDMENTS!
WE ALL COULD IMPROVE ON OUR LOVE WALK.
REMEMBER THE GOLDEN RULE? DO UNTO OTHERS AS YOU WOULD HAVE THEM DO UNTO YOU.
NOT DO UNTO OTHERS BEFORE THEY DO UNTO YOU!

LOVE HOPES ALL THINGS, BELIEVES ALL THINGS(FAITH), AND ENDURES ALL THINGS!

NOW OUT OF THESE THREE THINGS: FAITH, HOPE, AND LOVE ---THE GREATEST IS LOVE!
MULTIPLIED BLESSINGS TO EVERYONE WHO READS THIS BLOG!
