Home Based Business - Scheduling is a Whole New Ball Game

Filed under: Adam Holland, Work Ethic, Network Marketing — Adam Holland @ 12:23 am

I’ve been diligently working on the Explode My Business Mastermind Course for about 1 1/2 months now.  The course itself has been done for over a week, and I’ve been working on the sales page, affiliate page, and download pages.  (I always forget just how much code is a pain in the BUTT!)

Nonetheless, I wanted to write this blog specifically about how your schedule is SO much different when you start working from home.  Having a “regular” schedule is very possible, but it’s just “not my style”.  I’m a pretty spontaneous person… okay, or maybe I’m just lazy when it comes to planning stuff and just always come up with something last minute.  But (more…)

Delaying CYLAW for a “greater need”

So I’ve been busy creating my new personal development site, ChangeYourLifeAtWill.com, and I realized that writing the content for the site is taking WAY longer than expected.  So long, in fact, that it’s delaying me doing some more pressing issues that need to be taken care of.

I need to setup a new campaign for the Reverse Funnel System, and take care of my optin page and autoresponder messages.  I figured its more important to monetize your CURRENT websites rather than spreading yourself too thin and trying to market everything under the sun.

RFS is doing great, and the best part - it’s automated…  So it’s giving me some more free time to, well, get distracted with other crap!  If you’re in mlm and you’re marketing a high ticket item, trust me, just keep doing what you’re doing!  I was literally going to throw away $10K by not staying on track w/ my RFS goals and instead make $2K in other commissions (affiliate and other sales)…  Make the MAIN GOAL the MAIN GOAL!  Make sense?  Hope this helps.

Working a Home Based Business as far away from home as…home?

Filed under: General Business, Inspiration, Adam Holland, Work Ethic — Adam Holland @ 8:34 pm

I thought, at first, that working from home would be a total blessing.  I’d be more in control of my schedule, less stressed, more productive… I wouldn’t have to worry about my boss looking over my shoulder at my job (when I was working on my sites), and I could work comfortably on my couch… with out a cubicle in sight…

And after 2 full weeks of working from home full time, I realized that my laziness can EASILY take me over…

When I was working 8am-10pm, I was DEAD FOCUSED on every minute of my day… When it was time to write an article, I did it…  When I needed to write an ad, setup a PPC campaign, write site content… it was in my schedule… and it was on a to-do list. (more…)

The REAL Reason Why the Giants Won…

Filed under: Inspiration, Adam Holland, Recreation, Work Ethic, Personal Development — Adam Holland @ 9:11 am

It takes more than talent to win the biggest game of the year…

Living in NY and following the Giants through out the season (their training camp is even in Albany :-)  ) I got to see the events unfold 1 week at a time…

The REAL reason the Giants won isn’t just because they decided to pull together and work as a team… it wasn’t just their talent or a little luck…

Like Strahan said in the post-game, it’s all about confidence…  <———

The week that the team stopped talking about how it was this persons fault or that person’s… if Coughlin was a good enough coach, and if Eli had a leadership problem…

The moment that they began to UPLIFT and ENCOURAGE each other is the REAL moment they became Champions…  When they began to SPEAK the right words… THAT is when things started to come together…

They fed off of each other’s enthusiasm and confidence, and that confidence carried them through the biggest games of their lives…

REMEMBER TO UPLIFT AND ENCOURAGE EACH OTHER!

IT DOESN’T MATTER IF IT’S IN SPORTS, IN BUSINESS, IN RELATIONSHIPS!!

YOU CAN CREATE THAT MOMENTUM OF POSITIVITY IN YOUR OWN LIFE  BY ENCOURAGING OTHERS!

DON’T FORGET TO PAY IT FORWARD!!!

Giants in the NFC Championship???

Filed under: Adam Holland, Work Ethic, Personal Development — Adam Holland @ 11:51 am

I just can’t believe the Giants beat the Cowboys yesterday… I try not to blog about too much other than business, so I’ll get to the point in a minute.

The Giants this season haven’t been the dominant force of the NFC, but they sure have been persistent.  And it’s that persistence that’s landed them in the NFC Championship…  The entire season, Giants and critics alike have never really considered the Giants a Superbowl contender.  Eli Manning came under criticism from teammates and others about his lack of leadership, but his decent performance in yesterday’s game still got them a win…

It’s this same persistence we have to have as entrepreneurs…  We will take criticism, we’ll have failure, and we’ll work our butts off and still might come up short in the end…  But it is the persistence and consistence that will ultimately bring us across the finish line…

Go Giants!   And I can’t wait until next week against the Packers!!  It’ll be a great game…

Thought-Awareness

Filed under: Inspiration, Adam Holland, Work Ethic, Personal Development — Adam Holland @ 9:23 pm

I used to be a lazy s-o-b. Uber-lazy. Until I finally realized that I needed to make some serious changes in my life, or things would just keep going the same way they were all the years before… I realized that I needed to discipline myself. I needed to be thinking and, more importantly, I needed to be aware that I was thinking.

What does that mean? Well, there are very few things in this world that you can control, but one of them is your thoughts. If something bad happens to you, and you get pissed off… you need to realize that your temper temporarily controlled you… your thought process was NOT in control. If something bad happens to you, and you recognize you have a CHOICE to how you respond… then you are aware of your thoughts. And you can control what you say and do.

If you want to control your bank account, family life, career, and your entire future… you must first take control of your own thoughts. Stay positive and enthusiastic, and start working diligently towards your goals.

Why New Reps Making 5-Figures a Month Will Go Broke

Filed under: Work Ethic, Network Marketing — Adam Holland @ 9:23 pm

With so many profitable network marketing businesses that offer very lucrative compensation plans ($1000 commissions and up), it is a very exciting time for this great industry. Many brand new reps are making $5-10K in their first month, and making $20K and MORE per month very soon thereafter. The problem is most of these people weren’t making more than $40-50K per YEAR before they found their riches online… and now they’re unfamiliar with how to spend the new-found wealth.

I thought about this problem after watching a video of a new distributor that had made about $50K in his first 2-3 months with (more…)

Best Compliment I Received in a Long Time

Filed under: Inspiration, Adam Holland, Work Ethic — Adam Holland @ 9:23 pm

In order to really understand how much this meant to me, you have to understand where my mind was at the time of receiving this compliment.

I was working 2 jobs (8am to 10pm) Monday through Friday. At lunch and on breaks I would work on my websites I was getting close to launching. In fact, I would time everything PERFECTLY every single day. As soon as it was noon, I’d put some lunch in the microwave and while it was cooking I’d take my bathroom break. On my way out of the restroom, I’d grab the hot lunch, head back to my desk, and diligently start typing out text content that I was going to put on my website.

I’d do this again at 5pm with dinner. I started my second job at 6pm, and during lulls in the evening I’d start typing an email to (more…)
