Here are my tips, FOOD FOR THOUGHT.

Think positive

Understand the power of positive psychology, look at every situation as a learning opportunity. As a leader, you must always set the pace for your team. The easiest way to build this trait is to do positive self-talk each morning.

Be honest & transparent

Great LEADERS possess the leadership skills to appropriately tell people the truth, whether it’s good or bad. PLEASE, this is so important. ALWAYS TELL THE TRUTH. People respect honesty.

Communicate Effectively

So many problems in an organization are the result of a lack of communication. Help those on your team to understand what they need to do. Be as specific as possible. A great leader knows when to talk, but more importantly when to NOT talk. Quiet gives you time to think and process the information correctly.

Know how to inspire TEAM

The fact of the matter is that great leaders know how to inspire. Sometimes, they don’t even know it. You lead your TEAM by example. Cool clear thinking with the appropriate action.

Align your Team

Keep the entire team focused, and aligned towards one long-term goal. What is your long-term goal? Helping your team to grow and earn money on a regular basis. Building your list and helping your TEAM to build their lists. Setting clear, realistic, actionable goals for your team is one of the most important parts of your job.

Be a mentor

If you’d like to be a great boss a major part of your skillset will have to be a mentor. I love this part. I have 2 of the best mentors ever. Their skills are the most valuable to this TRUCKER. They offer recommendations that have worked for them. They have way more experience than I do about what brings in great results and what doesn’t.

A compassionate boss is someone who truly cares about his/her TEAM. You have a listening ear and can relate personally. You help in times of trouble with compassion and gentleness.

Being a leader should be FUN, Energetic, Laughable, Peaceful, Guidance Counselor, Mentor, Devils Advocate when needed. Be yourself. Learn something new every day.

“A business idea is just another idea. But an idea backed by strong feasibility, a thorough business plan, and a smart team is no longer an idea. It’s now a solid business opportunity worth pursuing.” – Ajaero Tony Martins

Have you looked into the mirror today and told yourself, you are well-loved? YOU ARE. Have you said to yourself today, I can accomplish this task with speed and efficiency? YOU CAN and WILL.

Business Lesson 101: Start with a notebook and pen. Write down your thoughts no matter how big or small. Write what you see each morning, afternoon, and evening. This is the starting point of greatness.

Think about this next statement:

The Purpose of A Business

The purpose of a business is to offer value (through products and/or services) to customers, who pay for the value with cash or equivalents.

How do you offer your product or service? DO NOT EVER SELL PEOPLE. Research what they need and become the go-to person for solving that issue. When you help people, they are more apt to buy from you.

Value is always that which is perceived by the customer. Ideally, it should evolve, change, and multiply over time.

Talking to oneself is important. If you don’t speak positively to yourself, you are missing a valuable resource. You know what you are capable of, I see what you can and will become with a little training.

 “The most important word in the world of money is cash flow. The second most important word is leverage.” – Rich Dad.

Pick one thing to FOCUS on until you master it. When I quit drinking, all I focused on for 2 years was not drinking until it became a habit. Now I don’t think about drinking.

Same with smoking. I focused on NOT smoking until it became a habit. Now I don’t think about smoking.

My mentors’ advice: MASTER ONE THING AT A TIME. DAILY HABITS START SMALL BUT GROW TO UNIVERSE-SIZE DREAMS.

I share my business with everyone looking to SUCCEED. You may not know anything about business but you can learn. It’s not that hard. Be TEACHABLE.

I think about how to help people. I speak intelligently and passionately about LIFE. How to make yours better. I don’t have all the answers. I can research with you to find the best solution.

My Mentor Janet Legere wrote a book: Get Stuck On Happy. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this book. Order your copy today.

“Everyone has an invisible sign hanging from their neck saying, ‘make me feel important.’ Never forget this message when working with people.” – Mary Kay Ash.

Try this today: Leave someone better off than you found them. Show them the best LOVE you have to offer holding nothing back.

WHERE IS YOUR INTERNAL COMBUSTION?

Hello Everyone, Michael The Traveling Trucker with tips to make your business run smoothly.

An engine that uses liquid fuel to create energy, such as an internal combustion engine, is basically a large air pump. Cool air is drawn in, mixed with the fuel of choice to create power, then expelled as hot exhaust gas afterward.

The more efficiently this “air pump” of an engine breathes, the more efficiently it produces power.

I put diesel fuel into my tractor to keep it moving forward, DEF into the system to help it run clean. Diesel Exhaust Fuel keeps all the soot from building up and making the truck run properly.

Mention: https://www.pexels.com/search/building%20blocks/

At this point, Your Machine Needs the Right People. If you put people into the system and they don’t perform, it slows the engine process down.

3 Essential Building Blocks-People, Process, Platforms. What does the term digital marketing engine mean? The analogy is that the framework contains all the different parts that work together in order to grow your business.

Your business needs fuel, RIGHT? Social Media, YouTube videos, Paid ads, Leads( paid or organic), Viral Mailers, Conversations with others from social media. Talking with other Entrepreneurs.

This is your fuel of choice. You need training that builds long-term momentum. What are your daily habits? Do you have a calendar? Do you have your viral mailers set up for daily or every other day to go out?

Are you contacting your leads by phone, text, or email? How often do you contact your people? Are you building your list? Daily showing up with your fuel of choice in hand creates the cooling airflow that makes YOUR BUSINESS breathe.

Do YOU have The Business Owner’s Mindset? “The more I do, the
more I have to keep doing. The more I get my business to do, the more I can
step back and focus on growing and developing my business.

We talk about the system. Why is the system important? It empowers your business to consistently produce an excellent result for your clients through reliable processes and procedures.

When building YOUR list, you are building your TEAM. You need people who will follow instructions( system). Tweek it to fit themselves. Be trainable, teachable, or what it takes to get the job done.

Is your business looking to have Scalable Solutions in the future? Scaling your business requires building it in such a way that your business model and systems can be rolled out and replicated on a much bigger scale.

It could mean tweaking your business model so that your service is more
scalable and not so dependent on one or two key people.

Everything you do reflects who you are, what your business is about, and the people you care about. It’s so important to build a strong business from the start, so it will last for YEARS to come.

How To Conduct The Business Interview?

Hello Everyone, Yes, it is time for the BUSINESS INTERVIEW. Don’t get nervous. I’m Michael The Traveling Trucker and I will be doing the interview.

Mention: https://pixabay.com/images/search/job%20interview/

Let me start off by saying, we have all been in an interview. Some of us were so nervous, we couldn’t think straight. Some of us were self-confident and answered honestly. Some were not even sure why you were here.

In Affiliate Marketing, using our phones for the interview should sound pleasant. Don’t make it sound like you are selling something.

Interview, Interview Process

As the interviewer, stay relaxed. You control the tone of the interview. IT IS YOUR BUSINESS.

Here are some hints to follow when seeing if people fit your business.

Always remember to make all your conversations ALL about them and be a great listener and provide insight and value to help your new member or lead on their path to starting their own online business.

Check out their social media profile. This will help you to determine their suitability to you and your business.

Call your people with a SMALL list of questions. If people don’t respond, DON’T CHASE them. They contacted you 1st. Work with people who want to work with you. MAKE SENSE?

Introduce yourself and why you are calling. Ask if now is a good time to talk. If not set up a time that suits you both.

Ask if they signed up for the 7-day free trial. This is our BUSINESS MODEL at GLN. Get them started. Help them get the most of the 7 days. They could earn their 1st commission without any out-of-pocket expense.

I’m following up to see if you have any questions. When people respond to your Lead Capture Page and fill out the form, they may not have followed the process to the Thank You Page that gives detailed instructions on what to do next.

See where they stopped and get them back on the right step to move them forward.

This is common when talking to people. They get this look, even on the phone.

Surprised, Woman, Young, Portrait


Have you had a chance to log in to the member’s area yet? If they say no, ask if they can log in NOW. You’ll wait and help them with the setup process.

First things first, ask if they watch the video in the member’s area! Then ask if they have any questions about the program, did they start the 6 steps to set up their GLN system?
Are they interested in moving forward with GLN, even at the beginner level?

We are here to HELP PEOPLE. Make it easy and stay excited about YOUR BUSINESS. Ask people how soon they want to get started. Ask for a time frame.

Job, Search, Interview, Job Search, Word

Your job here is to direct them to get involved. Get them to join the FB Group and the Telegram Group.

From there, they will get all the help they need, regardless of your experience. The GLN Team will work to “convert” your free member to a paid member!

DO YOU NEED A BEGINNERS GUIDE?

Hello Everyone. I’m your host, Michael The Traveling Trucker with your beginner’s guide to LIFE.

I’m going to show you just how easy this is. With a little practice on your own, you WILL build an income stream for years to come.

At this point- STOP filling out all those forms. There is no magic bullet, just Sound business practices.

Mention: https://pixabay.com/images/search/helping%20people/

Images For > People Helping Others - Cliparts.co

You looked on the internet for ways to make money. You filled out a form, CORRECT? You left your name, phone number, and email, CORRECT? Did you get a call, text, or email from a person who said it was their page you filled out?

After you clicked for more information, YOU should have automatically be sent to a thank you page. There was a video of the person who set the page up. With me so far?

You should have been taken to the main page that explains the done-for-you system, CORRECT?

Here is an explanation of who we are and what we do.

The Genesis Lifestyle Network is a multi-stream income system
that allows the everyday individual to create multiple streams
of income using one link and be a part of the multi-billion
dollar e-learning industry!

People Working in front of the Computer

We provide you with digital marketing training, resources, and tools to ensure you are positioned to have maximum success starting from day one. We truly believe that living the laptop lifestyle includes having a simple blueprint that anyone can follow.

Each step has a video to watch that explains what you will be doing. PLEASE WATCH VIDEO 1ST.

Step 1: Setup Your System. Set Up Your Profile Information. Easy so far, RIGHT?

Step 2: Set Your Profile Picture. We will walk you through this process with a step-by-step video. Again easy, RIGHT?

Step 3: JOIN OUR FACEBOOK COMMUNITY AND TELEGRAM GROUP. This is where you will learn so much from our leaders until YOU become one of the leaders. I have used all the resources so many times when I have needed help. It is one of the most valuable places for instruction.

Integrate Your Opportunities. This next point is where you can promote 4 opportunities of your choice. I have additional businesses I use to promote.

Choose Your Autoresponder 

You have three different options to consider when hooking up your email autoresponder. You have the option to use the Conversion Pros autoresponder service or you can hook up to a third-party service such as Aweber or Sendshark using our in-house API service. The choice is yours! If you set up your autoresponder in this step with the Conversion Pros, YOU MUST USE THE CONVERSION PROS TOOL SUITE IN STEP 4 AS WELL!

Set Your Foundation: This is where you begin to get momentum.

Choose Your Capture Page Solution

We have given you two different options to build out funnels with the Genesis Lifestyle Network. With the Conversion Pros, you have full control over the funnel as you can change the text, the background, insert videos, or whatever you like. Another great benefit with the Conversion Pros is that you have the ability to collect 50% residual commissions month in and month out for every person that you refer to their platform!

Your other option would be to use our in-house capture pages and funnels. These are included in your membership. The one big difference is that these funnels are set and you do not have the ability to change anything. If you want something quick and that is ready to go, then this is your best option. Please click the appropriate button below to set up your funnel.

I believe at this point, every person will be so excited. You set up your payment center.YES, this is where and how you get PAID.

Payment Setup:

Signup For Snappy Checkout – You are eligible for 100% commissions

The Genesis Lifestyle Network is an instant pay affiliate program and we pay out commissions of 30% all the way up to 100%. With that being said we use a cloud-based software called Snappy Checkout and we have our payment structure set up a bit differently and this is all done by our in-house support team. We build out several buttons to ensure that you get paid a percentage of the sale on all product packages. 

The final piece of the setup process is an Overview.

Order Traffic/Advertise

Congratulations! You have successfully completed your system setup! You are now ready to start sending traffic to your system and start building multiple streams of income. With our system, you will have the ability to collect commissions on your 4 opportunities that you set in step 2, any products that you placed your affiliate link for the online marketplace, and commissions of up to $2,000 per sale for our core products. Now it is time to put in the work and let’s make some money!

When I set this system up with the process I just shared with you, It took me 1.5 hours. I have stayed excited since that day. Seeing my 1st commission gave me the confidence to continue day by day.

See how easy this can and will be. BE LIKE ME AND FOLLOW EACH STEP. You will earn money, so give it time. Learn to build your daily habits. Ask the leaders what they do on a daily basis. COPY THEM OVER AND OVER. This is why YOU are here, IT’S TO MAKE MONEY AND CHANGE YOUR LIFESTYLE.

Picture the day when you tell your boss, GOODBYE FOREVER, and BEGIN YOUR LAPTOP LIFESTYLE.

LIFE IS WHAT YOU OUT INTO IT.

ARE YOU BREAKING ALL THE BARRIERS?

Start your day by saying, “TODAY IS A BLESSED AND PROSPEROUS DAY. I WILL BE MY BEST TODAY”.

Blessings and more blessings from Michael The Traveling Trucker. Today I did a double video. Sharing what I have learned with a new partner in crime. ( Not an actual crime.) With Antonio.

What are you, Dear READER doing to break the barriers in your life? How are y0u teaching what you have learned with others? I have the most wonderful mentors. They have a no-holds-barred approach with me. They are constantly challenging me to new heights.

I met Antonio in Elkton, Maryland. This man has an entrepreneurial spirit, a giving personality, and a thinker of new ideas. He shared with me how he got started in the trucking industry. Shared his entrepreneurial spirit for helping others succeed, and sharing life with people.

Antonio told me of the different trucks and trailers he uses for all the money-making opportunities. Dry van, reefer, and car hauler. If he wants to go to Vegas on vacation, he gets a load of cars going to Vegas. He shared with me being the bankroll for other projects. He wants to stay in the background and let other people shine out front.

We all can and should make a difference in the lives of people we live with, meet on a daily basis, and touch the hearts of complete strangers ( which I have never met). Mr. Shy, RIGHT? LOL

Let’s start breaking the rules, challenging and breaking stereotypes, and break boundaries of thinking that hold us back, and start to achieve success.

Your main focus is- Changing Your Thinking from the unknown to the known. We all have challenges, things we have never tried. Yes, there is a learning curve, but I know you are up for the challenge.

We MUST, MUST, MUST learn to persevere and discipline ourselves to greater heights. We have all the training we will ever need. ARE YOU USING IT? ACTION speaks loud, and people love action takers. ARE YOU AN ACTION TAKER?

We have to value and promote the contributions people make. Thanks, Janet, Rob, and Jared. Behind every family, there are people who fight on a daily basis to provide well-being and LOVE.

Solar Panels, Placement, Green Energy

WATER is the source of life. Love powers it, and promotes healthy a body. We must train ourselves to be all we can be. Use the resources at hand, and then build them up. Give them away by teaching, guiding, and working side by side with people.

Hard work at the beginning makes for years of effortless daily life. Train yourself daily to complete tasks. Then mark them off. We have taught daily to-do lists. DID YOU WRITE THEM DOWN? ARE YOU MARKING THEM OFF AS YOU GO?

Mention: https://pixabay.com/images/search/people%20working/

TO-DO LIST- Build your list. Build your relationships( phone, text, emails). Advertise daily. Build Like, know, and trust. Building your brand. I love being a trucker, can you tell? Michael The Traveling Trucker works so well for me.

Here is an exercise for NOW. Who are you? What do you do on a daily basis that you can share with others? Caregiver, good cook, writer, artist, homemaker, business leader, the list is endless.

Can and will you make a VIDEO? Stop looking at the camera as a horror, and create a best friend attitude. YOU MUST HAVE FUN. Smile a lot, laugh a lot, sing out loud, show the love that fills your heart with every breathe.

No matter what you do in life-BE YOUR BEST.

Share Life It’s So Much Fun

WHY CELEBRATE WITH OUR CANADIAN FAMILY?

Greetings and Salutations from the USA. Today I honor our Candian Family with their holidays and festivals.

Canada’s Capital City is Ottawa. Ottawa is located directly on the Ontario Quebec border on the Ottawa River. The Ottawa River is one of the premier places in the world for whitewater rafting.

The Maple leaf is on the flag, the Canadian dollar ($) (CAD) is it’s official currency.

What do we as American’s really know about Canada? It has an area of 9,984,670 square km, it is the world’s second-largest country by total area. Ottawa is its capital and Toronto is its largest city. English and French are their official languages.

The United States is its only land bordering country, with which it has the world’s largest land border. The country has immigrants from many countries, which makes it one of the world’s most multicultural and ethnically diverse nations.

Fun facts: Canadian food. Did you know Canadians eat more macaroni and cheese than any other country? I love my MacNCheese also. With kraft being the best, no wonder they have loved this food since before 1845!

I knew about Tim Horton’s. It is also responsible for having the most donut shops per capita than anywhere else. Throughout the entire world, there is not one country that surpasses them.

Being a trucker I love donuts, um I mean Canada.LOL

They’re even known for being the oldest brewery in North America and not only did they start it but the brewery is still running. Molson Coors Canada produced Molson Canadian beer and they are still making it right where they started in 1786.

77% of the maple syrup produced in the entire world is made right in Quebec.

Interesting facts about Canada Maples syrup

There are no hormones in Canadian dairy products.

That’s because they don’t allow any kind of hormones to be given to the cattle. So if you’re looking for a healthy and all-natural drink, you’ll find it in the milk.

Interesting facts about Canada: license plate

Imagine seeing license plates that are actually shaped like a polar bear.

I’m not too sure about this one but here it goes. In Dawson City Yukon, there is a cocktail where people drink whiskey with a human toe inside. It is called the sour toe cocktail.

People donate toes that have fallen off due to frostbite or other means. There is a $2500 fine if you swallow the toe. When people accidentally swallow the toe good samaritans donate newly severed toe to drink.

In the far north town of Churchill, Manitoba nobody locks their doors to their house or cars in case of a polar bear attack. Run for your lives and hope the lock is open. Churchill is located in the center of Polar Bear Alley and polar bears walk freely through the town.

DO YOU HAVE FUN FACTS?

Hello Everyone, Michael The Traveling Trucker with FUN FACTS that lead to some serious thinking.

Did the inventor of Coca-cola get rich? Old”Doc” Pemberton was well known in Atlanta, Ga. for his “patent medicines,” which people took to cure a variety of ills. In 1886 he appeared at the local soda fountain with a new drink.

People liked the flavor of the new drink. It was refreshing and could make anyone feel better. Doc went home and began making the Coca-Cola syrup.

Things didn’t go as planned. In his first year, Doc only sold 25 gallons of syrup. With no sign of improvement, Doc sold almost all his shares in the business to Asa Griggs Candler, an Atlanta druggist. Asa believed in ADVERTISING and the famous Coca-Cola label began to appear everywhere. Soon the business was a roaring success.

32 years after he bought the business for $289.29, Asa Griggs Candler sold it for $25 MILLION. Are you starting to get the picture?

Most of us have a true sense of business but get discouraged way too quickly. Business is to be thought out and executed in a series of daily habits.

Leonardo Da Vinci was a brilliant man of vision and science. A great inventor. A true genius who graced this world with his presence from April 15, 1452, to May 2, 1519. He is among the most influential artists in history, having left a significant legacy not only in the realm of art but in science as well, each discipline informing his mastery of the other.

Ulysses S. Grant was an American General during the civil war. He went on to become President. After retiring from the Presidency, Grant became a partner in a financial firm, which went bankrupt. About that time he learned that he had cancer of the throat. He started writing his recollections to pay off his debts and provide for his family, racing against death to produce a memoir that ultimately earned nearly $450,000. Soon after completing the last page, in 1885, he died.
