Will You Listen To A Billionaire

What a great time I had learning from the 6th richest man in the world. His insight is breath taking.

Michael The Traveling Trucker says never quit no matter your age.

Warren Buffet started investing when he was 10 years old and by age 30, he had amassed $1 million( in todays dollars, approximately $10 million.) Not to shabby– but a far cry from 116 billion.

By age 50, Warren was worth $300 million. After the age of 50, his wealth increased to 376 million, he fulfilled his dream of becoming a billionaire. Total assets of 1.4 billion. After completing 66 years of life, he earned 17 billion.

So what does Warren teach that we should listen to. Glad You Asked.

Tip One: Write clearly and second speak clearly. Warren says anyone can increase their value by 50% by LEARNING. If you have knowledge, yet not able to convey your point clearly to others, then your knowledge remains ZERO.

Invest in continous learning. Knowledge is the ultimate asset. Ok, pay attention: spend part of your day READING, LEARNING, and STAYING INFORMED IN VARIOUS MARKETS AND INDUSTRIES.

Invest in YOUR self-improvement. Building self-confidence and continously improving your skills. When you invest in yourself, you gain self-confidence, boldness, and resilience to face challenges head on and overcome them when you experience setbacks.

Invest in knowing your strengths. Understanding your unique capabilities can help you focus on areas where you excel.

This next one is HUGE: Invest in a support group. There is true value in seeking out MENTORS, PARTNERS, and FRIENDS who inspire and challenge you. My two mentors Rob Gehring and Janet Legere have the insight through time, experience and building successful businesses to impart this knowledge to others around the globe.

Most people don’t really listen though. They want to do it their way , which can be a disaster waiting to happen. Listen to what they say. Practice what they do and then fine tune it to fit your personality.

This is the BIGGEST ONE of ALL. INVEST IN DOING WORK YOU LOVE. When you love what you do, it doesn’t feel like work. Doing what you LOVE is a major contributor to true happines in LIFE.

Life is fast, ongoing and able to set you free. Embrace who you are, and who through improvement, can be all you were ment to be.

So what is next for you Dear Reader? I invite you to join me in the venture of YOUR lifetime. Click here to invest in yourself.

I look forward to working with you. Click NOW and I’ll see you on the inside.

Reading, Writing and Speaking clearly is your GOAL

Thoughts to Actions

How to turn your thoughts to actions sounds simple, but the truth is most people NEVER EVER put their thoughts into action unless it is self-centered on only their needs. I know this may be harsh but from my personal experience I was that self-centered person.

Welcome all, Michael The Traveling Trucker shares tips to become a people person.

“Watch your thoughts, they become words. Watch your words, they become actions. Watch your actions, they become habit.” ~ Laozi

“Thinking is easy, acting is difficult, and to put one’s thoughts into action is the most difficult thing in the world.” ~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

We have over 6,000 thoughts a day, many of which are ignored, partly because we consider them “invalid.”

Thoughts become more consequential for judgment and action as their perceived validity emerging from a wide range of variables, including incidental factors, is increased.

There are two types of validation (affective and cognitive) .Cognitive validation takes place when people are certain that their beliefs are correct. Mention: https://pixabay.com/images/search/positive%20thinking/

How to Manage Your Thoughts, Feelings, and Behaviors

New research helps explain how we can manage our brains and achieve our goals.

The only things we can control in life are our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. If we can manage those, we can achieve our goals and gain total success.

When I quit drinking I had to have a mindset each day not to drink. I did this each day for over 2 years to achieve the goal of not drinking. I had to apply this to quitting smoking. This mindset was for 30 days and on the 31st day this habit was broken . I still had to walk out each day with the mindset SMOKE FREE.

If we know how our minds work, we can be intentional about influencing our thinking and feeling patterns. We can evaluate reality more clearly, make better decisions and improve our ability to achieve our goals. 

How do our minds work? The terms “autopilot system” and “intentional system” come to mind. Let me explain. The autopilot system corresponds to our emotions and intuitions. Its cognitive processes take place mainly in the amygdala and other parts of the brain that developed early in our evolution. This system guides our daily habits, helps us make snap decisions and reacts instantly to dangerous life-and-death situations.

The Intentional System reflects our rational thinking and centers around the prefrontal cortex: the part of the brain that evolved more recently. The thoughts and actions we do habitually through time determines our destiny. I might fall and get a few bruises along the way, but if my habit is to get up one more time than I fall, my destiny will be one of success.

If I think positive thoughts and take positive actions toward my goals, my destiny can be one of joyful and uplifting, with moments of gleefulness. I might fall and get a few bruises along the way, but if my habit is to get up one more time than I fall, my destiny will be one of success.

Positive Mindset Is Vital To Keep You Balanced.

What Is Mental Clarity

Would you like to start each day with a clear focus on what you want to accomplish?  I know I would. Michael The Traveling Trucker with today’s hot topic.

Mention: https://www.freepik.com/photos/mental-clarity

Would you like to know that what you accomplish today will be accomplishments that meet your needs, desires, and life goals? Most of us have a mental description in our heads of what we would like to accomplish, yet without direction, daily game plan ( on paper) our thoughts get scrambled and we lose focus. So how do we get the Mental Clarity we desire?

Go for a Walk

Any form of exercise will clear your mind, but one of the most effective ways is to go for a walk- NATURES way of course. The very act of moving will put your mind into a more positive state, which will help you think things through more effectively.

Lemon Water in the Morning

Began by drinking lemon water every morning and you will be surprised how you will feal healthier, mentally clearer, and awake within twenty minutes.  When you feel healthy physically, you also feel mentally healthy.

Our mind and body work together. If we are physically ill, we don’t feel good mentally, and vice versa. When we feel energetic and alive, we feel fantastic, and our emotional feelings lift.

Plan Your Day the Night Before

When you start and plan your day the night before, you begin the day knowing what you want to accomplish. Most people never think about what they want to accomplish. 

Look at the Big Picture

Another way you can achieve mental clarity is by looking at the big picture. Have you ever felt like you were just ticking boxes? I know I have. We miss focus on what’s important and begin working on other peoples projects instead of our own.

Identify What Is Important to You

If you don’t know where you are going, how will you ever know when you get there? If you want to live your life to its maximum potential, decide what is important to you and do everything in your power to make it happen. When you know what you want and why you want it, you are 80% of the way there. The remaining 20% is the effort you put in to achieve it. The 80/ 20 rule is very accurate.

5 Key Self-Care Areas: These are sleep, food, water, exercise, and planning.

Jim Rohn taught: “Every day, stand guard at the door of your mind, and you alone decide what thoughts and beliefs you let into your life. For they will shape whether you feel rich or poor, cursed or blessed.”

One of the most potent ways to bring greater mental clarity into your life is to practice a consistent positive morning routine that focuses you on your day. Sometimes we need to unplug. Read a book, take a walk, drink your favorite beverage, watch nature-rain, snow, sunshine.

Journaling is one of the best ways to get mental clarity. When you see those thoughts and ideas on a page, you gain much more clarity on what they mean to you and what you can do about them.

In closing,  remove the toxic people from your life. You do not need them. Toxic people fill your world with negativity, confusion, and emotions that do not help you gain clarity about your life.

Are You A Leader Or Pleader

Once again Michael The Traveling Trucker brings up the strong questions.

Mention: https://pixabay.com/images/search/affiliate/

Leaders present the information and lets the system work for them. They follow up and answer any questions by letting the system do the work. When you put people into the system and let the system train them, your job is to love and guide them to the next step.

Pleaders beg people to join their programs. They talk to much about themselves and never let the system work for them. They tell the people how much money they can make, while not making any themselves.

Leaders are trainers. The system has the best training. Point people to the right training and LET THE SYSTEM WORK.

Affiliate marketing is a win-win-win offer for all involved—but that doesn’t mean everyone will sign on.

Why should you use affiliate marketing?

Affiliate marketing has been proven to have a much higher return on investment than most other marketing strategies. One major reason for this is because your target audience will hear of your product or service from affiliates that are naturally positioned within their spheres of influence.

Affiliate marketers come in all shapes and stripes, but the ones that will work best for your course should demonstrate a knowledge of you and your industry, as well as an intuitive understanding of your target audience. These affiliates will be able to recommend your course with more authority, and bring in learners who are well-suited to your material.

Once you know your affiliate audience and have built a page tailored to their interests and needs, you shouldn’t hold back from making your program known. Publish it on your website, send emails to your professional contacts, and include the announcement in the footer of your emails. Convincing affiliates to market your course isn’t usually difficult, you just have to get the word out.

I hope this helps. You can be any one you want to be. Time and money, training and mentoring are at the heart of your business. Treat it with the utmost care.

Successful Way to Introduce Yourself 

If it’s something you wouldn’t want to read, chances are, the prospect won’t open it either.

Mention: https://pixabay.com/images/search/meeting/

Hello Everyone Michael The Traveling Trucker introducing myself to you and Your prospects.

To say that the average consumer is inundated by constant noise is an understatement. Businesses are trying to grab people’s attention via television, radio, billboards, subway signs, social media ads and text messages. The barrage is endless.

But as a business owner, you can’t stop your marketing efforts. One trick to ensure you don’t become part of the noise is to introduce yourself to a customer in an engaging and earnest manner. How you introduce yourself will depend on the situation and your role in the process.

What makes a good first line?

The first line of a story should create a sense of character, conflict, setting, mood, theme, or style — or any combination thereof. Most importantly, it should make the reader ask questions.

Tailor your greeting to the industry and situation. Make your first line about them. Explain why you’re reaching out. Provide value for them. Include a call-to-action. ( This step is vital so don’t forget to put it in. ) Say “thanks” and sign off. Follow up with them.

Sounds so simple, DOESN’T IT? For most, this is a scary process but it doesn’t have to be. It TAKES PRACTICE.

How do you introduce yourself to a prospective client example?

If you are not sure what to share, your name and title is a great place to start. If there’s an opportunity to elaborate, you can also share other details.

My name is [Name], the new [role] at [company name]. I wanted to take this opportunity to introduce myself and let you know how much I am looking forward to working with you. I’d love to get started on the right foot, so please don’t hesitate to reach out and set up a meeting to discuss getting started and expectations.

How do you introduce yourself in 4 sentences?

Sentence1: Greeting. A simple Good morning, Hello or something similar is okay. Sentence 2: Your name. “I’m Michael Lipsey” Sentence 3: Point of Connection. Sentence 4: Call to action (or conclusion) NOW WRAP IT UP.

Food Friends and Fun Is The Ticket

Keeping Clear Focus

Congradulations on starting your journey READER. You finally picked your niche, decided to upgrade to make the most of your business.

Hello and Welcome from Michael The Traveling Trucker. Here are some tips for you to use daily to stay focused.

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

Evaluate How Mentally Focused You Are. How strong is your mental focus at the present moment? Your Focus Is Good If… You find it easy to stay alert. You set goals and break tasks up into smaller parts. You take short breaks, then get back to work.

Your Focus Needs Work If… You daydream regularly. You can’t tune out distractions. You lose track of your progress. Let me say here, we ALL get distracted from time to time. Learning to focus takes practice. You can and will learn this valuable lesson so give it time to master.

To improve focus and productivity, build healthy habits like getting enough sleep and exercise. Multitasking and social media can cause distractions during work, so it’s best to limit them. Breaks are important to stay focused — try a time-blocking technique like the (pomodoro method).

So what is the Pomodoro Technique? Pomorodo is tomato in italian. The secret to effective time management is…thinking in tomatoes rather than hours? I know this sounds crazy, just keep reading. This popular time management method asks you to alternate pomodoros — focused work sessions — with frequent short breaks to promote sustained concentration and stave off mental fatigue. Thinking in TOMATOES is way more fun than thinking in hours.

1st- pick a task-2nd-set a timer for 25 minutes-3rd- work on your task until the timer buzzes 4th-Take a 5 minute break 5th-For every 4 pomodoro take longer breaks 15-30 minute breaks.

What is the Pomodoro Technique?

The Pomodoro Technique was developed in the late 1980s by then university student Francesco Cirillo. Cirillo was struggling to focus on his studies and complete assignments. Feeling overwhelmed, he asked himself to commit to just 10 minutes of focused study time. Encouraged by the challenge, he found a tomato (pomodoro in Italian) shaped kitchen timer, and the Pomodoro technique was born.

Meditate

If the saying “practice makes perfect” is true, then meditation is a sure way to enhance focus because it takes a great deal of concentration.

Exercise regularly

Exercises like swimming, running, walking, yoga. You get the picture, right?” DO SOMETHING EACH DAY.

Establish a to-do list

To-do lists not only help you prioritize what tasks you need to get done first, but they can also serve as a record of the loose ends.

Try a small amount of caffeine

If you’re feeling groggy, grab a CUP OF JOE or something with caffeine.  Studies suggest that caffeine may, in moderate doses, help to boost focus — particularly in those of us who are fatigued.

Get away from screens during breaks

Not all breaks are created equal. If your pomodoro work sessions happen on your computer, don’t just switch over to Twitter or Instagram when the timer goes off. Give your eyes and brain a break from screens — that means your phone too! Stand up, move around, stretch, go outside, do a mini meditation, grab a snack, watch birds out the window. If you work from home, fold some clothes or clear off the kitchen table.

Now you are armed and ready to get your tasks done in a timely manner.

YOU CAN DO THIS-I BELIEVE IN YOU

Mistakes Help You Grow

Have you ever hit your thumb with a hammer? Learning to hit the metal nail instead of your ( human ) nail is important , right?

“What great thing would you attempt, if you knew you could not fail?”

— Robert H. Schuller

Mention:https://pixabay.com/images/search/problem%20solving/

So READER, what would you do if you knew you couldn’t fail? What would your life look like? Would it look the same as it does today? If not, how far off from that vision are you?

All too often, fear holds us back from pursuing the things we’d like to be doing. For those trying to build a freelance writing career, affiliate marketing, SEO, Blogging, fear can show up as insecurity, a feeling dread or imposter syndrome, procrastination, lack of confidence, and analysis paralysis, to name a few manifestations.

Fear also impacts goal setting, because when you operate from fear, you may make choices based on the wrong things. Or worse, be afraid to make choices at all. Be strong and courageous. I’ll stick by you and help you grow.]

You need to get past any obstacles and take action to move forward. Identifying your mistakes and knowing how to correct them is all of our goals, RIGHT?

Even though fear may never completely disappear, you’ll learn you CAN make it through. Take a deep breath, NOW. Every time you overcome fear, you’ll gain more confidence … and become even braver … ( SUPERMAN OR WOMEN) willing to tackle bigger and better things … ultimately getting you to a life much richer than you ever imagined. Life is to short to spend worrying about things that might not happen at all. Spend time making YOUR life better.

If you want to go where the BIG money is…

If you want to truly “future-proof” your career and have peace of mind that you’ll always command a high-income (goal) right?

There’s one skill you do need to learn ASAP.

So What Is This Lucrative Skill?

Simple:It’s knowing how to create a content marketing strategy. When it comes to digital marketing, literally ALL of it is driven by content. Got a TikTok, linkedin, or twitter video ad that goes to a sales page? That’s content.

So where do you start? AUDIENCE: No matter what you’re selling — whether it’s your own services, software, or a physical product — you’ve got to know WHO your ideal prospect is. Intimately know the person you want to move to action.

Offer: It becomes infinitely easier to know WHAT to offer them in terms of a solution, whether it’s in the form of a product or service. In my business, I have both. Products and services. Check This Out.

COPY: You might start with a free video the prospect finds on YouTube, which then links to downloading a free lead magnet, which then in turn leads to an email sequence that leads to the sales page. All of these are important, but you MUST know your audience. Get to know them. See what strengths and weaknesses they have and help them SOLVE them.

Because no matter what niche you go into… no matter what industry… this “Audience, Offer, Copy” trifecta remains the same. Remember, It’s about learning, TAKING ACTION and helping your people do the same.

KNOW, LIKE TRUST Is The Name Of The Game
