Riding Off Into The Sunset

THE END—- Wasn’t that a great story. Michael The Traveling Trucker strikes again.

We all like the ending of the story with everyone winning, riding off into the sunset happily ever after.

WAIT- WHAT? Where’s the beginning and middle of the story? Where would you start? How does your story differ from everyone else?

Does your story have LOVE? Love can be forestered, extended, used to subjugate hate and thus CURE DISEASES. Real friends are those who, when you’ve made a fool of yourself, don’t feel that you’ve done a permanent job.

Is there JOY? Joy in what you are doing, sharing with those you care about. It’s easy to be pleasent, when life flows by like a song. But the man worth while is one who will smile, when everything goes dead wrong. Let your JOY shine forth for all to see.

Where is your PEACE? Take with you words, strong words of courage: Words that have wings!

I have heard the next one but not sure what it is. LONG SUFFERING. Much wisdom remains to be learned, and if it is only to be learned and if it is only to be learned through adversity, we must endeaver to endure adversitty with what fortitude we can command.

I see GENTLENESS: If you have a weakness, make it work for you as a strength- and if you have a strength, don’t abuse it into a weakness. The kindly word today may bear its fruit tomorrow.

Into the mirror I see GOODNESS. We’ve got to build a better man before we build a better society. The only way to settle a disagreement is on the basis of what’s right- not who’s right. What I must do, and not what people think, is all that concerns me.

FAITH really is a gift of GOD. Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday. When you get to the end of your rope, tie a knot in it and hang on.

MEEKNESS is essentially an attitude or quality of heart whereby a person is willing to accept and submit without resistance to the will and desire of someone elseDon’t let others take advantage of your meekness thinking it’s your weakness.

What is the true meaning of TEMPERANCE ?  Moderation in action, thought, or feeling : restraint. : habitual moderation in the indulgence of the appetites or passions.

See your story does have everything. I’m glad you got to share this with all of us. WAY TO GO. I told you it was easy, don’t you feel better for getting your thoughts down on paper and then say, COME READ.

What is keeping you from SUCCESS? Is it fear of what others might think? Have you failed numerous times? No money, no time, no resources?

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

All of these YOU can overcome, trust me, I know how it feels. Most of the online world has felt this way, so your not alone.

What type of online marketing are you interested in? Affiliate, selling digital products, consumer goods and services? Whatever it is, do you homework. Do a search and see what is working for others. Find a mentor and ask the hundred and one questions.

“IT’S NOT ABOUT THE SIZE OF YOUR DOUBT, BUT THE SIZE OF YOUR FAITH.” Ultimately, doubt is always present when faith is required. There is no need to fear doubt—not our own or the doubt of those we love. For even when we doubt the truth, it still remains true.

“YOUR DOUBT DOES NOT DISQUALIFY YOU.” When you struggle with doubt, it can make you feel like a fraud. It’s easy to believe that having doubts disqualifies you but it DOES NOT. Fight the good fight until you win. Get out your paper and pen- Yep it’s note taking time.

Search your doubt to find its root. There is usually something that is at the core of your doubt, and most other doubts stem from it. If you can identify that core problem, it will help narrow your searching. Is it people in your past saying, you can’t do it?

Be honest with yourself about the nature of TRUTH. Truth doesn’t depend on what you like or on what makes most sense to you personally. Truth is something you have to commit to seeking outside of yourself. 

How to Stop Overthinking and Overcome Self-Doubt. By changing the way we think (or whatever it is we’re trying to do), we can change our emotional response to the action. No one is really paying too close attention to you. That may seem harsh, but it’s actually liberating. 

Most people think about themselves way more than others. The reality is that other people are so absorbed with their own struggles, fears, failures, successes, and what they’re going through, that they rarely take too much time out of their day to consider what you’re up to. 

YOU ARE COMPLETE. YOU ARE SUCCESSFUL ALREADY. YOU WILL WIN. Time is really on your side, so use it wisely. REPPEAT OUT LOUD: “I CAN DO THIS. I WILL DO SOMETHING EACH DAY UNTIL I MASTER THIS”.

Let the buzz of thoughts in your head out onto the page.

When we overthink, our heads can get so clouded with buzzing thoughts that we can’t really evaluate each idea clearly and realistically. 

A great way to reduce overthinking is to journal your thoughts. Write down everything you’re thinking without holding back. Just get it all down on paper so it’s out of your head. You can then evaluate what is there and see what the best course of action is.

Embrace Your Self-Doubt

One of the best things we can do to overcome our self-doubt is actually embrace it. Make the decision to embrace your discomfort and embarrassment. Ask yourself “what’s the worst that could happen if I fail?”You will have to figure out another way to do it.

I have a great recommendation about business for you to look at. Click Here.

Asking Your Recipients to Safelist Your Email Address 

As an email marketer, getting your emails to the recipient’s inbox is undoubtedly an important job, but not an easy one.

What a great day to ride along with Michael The Traeling Trucker.

Due to strict spam filtering and email marketing regulations such as the Can-Spam Act, reaching your recipient’s inbox is one of the most difficult jobs. There is a good chance that your emails will go to spam. In such cases, it’s ideal to ask the recipients to safelist your email address. Along with that, you can also tell them how they can do it.

Join just ONE safelist mailer at a time. Join it. Get it completely set up and working for you. THEN think about joining another one. Joining too many too fast could result in a lot of frustration on your part. Here is my recommendation CLICK NOW

Whenever you send an email to someone, it has to pass through several spam filters. Email clients have developed spam filtering to monitor every email to keep the recipient’s inbox free of spam and unwanted messages.

So you have a beautiful list of emails that you’ve collected for months or years. These email addresses belong to people who fit the demographic of your regular customer, maybe they even ARE your customers.

Perhaps the most effective method for utilizing your safelist is to regularly offer discounts. The next best way to maximize the use of your safelist is to update your list when industry or company news gets published on your website.

Want to ensure that your mailing list doesn’t get treated as spam? Constant Contact ensures that your mailing lists adhere to all laws without any extra effort from you, helping you grow your business with customers who want to hear what you have to say.

On a double opt-in list, all email address must be confirmed before they are added. A request for confirmation is sent to the submitted address and the address owner must take some action to confirm that He/she is the owner of the email address,the address is working and He/she indeed wants to subscribe.

safelist is a group of people who have agreed to receive emails from one another. Usually, the group requires membership and has rules regarding how often you are allowed to email the members.

I hope this explains what safelists are and how to excess them. Leave a comment. It helps me focus on what’s important.

Is There A Hole In Your Bucket

Drip, Drip, Drip. Dang it. I’m losing all my water. My business is not getting watered. OH, what do I do?

Hello Everyone, Michael The Traveling Trucker with options to fix your bucket from leaking.

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

There’s a Hole in My Bucket” (or “…in the Bucket“) is a children’s song based on a protracted dialogue between two characters, Henry and Liza, about a leaky bucket.

In business we all have a bucket full of water. I help clients visualize the different dimensions of Human Energy; their physical, emotional, cognitive, relational and spiritual energies as water in a bucket. We call this their “Energy Bucket”.

When energy is high, the Bucket is full. When energy is depleted, so is the water in the Bucket.

Who put the holes in your bucket?  The answer is complex, but stated simply they came from both internal and external sources.  You probably drilled a few yourself through careless actions and others came from parents, family, friends, associates, and your present and former bosses. Because our lives constantly change, the holes in our feedback buckets are in a state of flux. Holes come, and holes go, but some are always there.

Fixing the problem of the hole is going to take time and energy. First, see how big the hole is. It could be your holes are small- spending small amounts of money over and over and never following through with people and building your list.

Big hole- shiny syndrone. You go from one thing to another because it looks good. You don’t take time and work it. Does it work or do you get bored to quick?

Your 1st step is to write down where you want to be, how much time do you have, how much time each day to work on money tasks. Get a mentor who will take you out of your comfort zone.

Build your LIST daily. Without people you have NO business. Follow up with your people at least every two or three days. GUIDE them. Build that relationship and you will see money for both of you.

POWER TO SERVE: Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit. Humility is an attitude of the heart that places emphasis on human need without, not personal desire within. Humility reaches out with confidence devoid of pride.

Let me help fix the hole in your bucket. We will map out everything, take daily steps to plug the holes. Build your list, overcome your shyness talking to people.

Put you in the right business with easy to follow instructions. Does this sound like something you are ready for?

What Are You Passionate About?

Well looks who’s back, Michael The Traveling Trucker. Today’s adventure is Passion. What do you think about and act on the MOST?

PASSIONATE: Generally it refers to someone who has intense feelings on some topic, whether it is devotion to an ideology or to some cultural passion, like Impressionist painting or hip-hop. The passionate person is often one who tries to convince others that their preferred topic is worthy of everyone else’s attention.

If you have an interest, others might as well. Being passionate about something that others gravitate to can help create a new value. You will be able to see things from an insider’s perspective.

Don’t box in your passion. Letting yourself use your passion to find a way to create value from that passion is helpful. You can find ways to be around your passion, letting the motivation and interest fuel a new endeavor.

When you are passionate about something, you will be able to sustain it through difficult times. Passion helps with a realistic timeline.  Being passionate translates to being able to stick with it longer than others. 

Passion gets you to do the things necessary to grow and improve.

Instead of going through the motions in life, you will push on and work harder to solve problems.

The Art Of Storytelling

He rolled his eyes several times, then opened them. The masked man stood above him. He was disoriented and was not sure where he was. The last thing he remembered was skating. Then blackness.

The masked man asked if he knew where he was? The boy said “no”. The room smelled antiseptic. There were beeps coming from the wall behind him. The room was dim, easy on his eyes.

There were noises from the hallway that were hard to make out letting him know where he might be..

The masked man said there was an accident. The boy knew from that moment his life was going to change. The masked man asked if he was in pain. The boy said only a little.

Are you hungry? The boy said he was more thirsty than hungry. The masked man reached over and poured a glass of water . He handed it to the boy, who drank deeply.

Asking Tough Questions

Hello Readers, Michael The Traveling Trucker with BIG NEWS.

Mention: https://www.pexels.com/search/curious/

When doing business of any type, are you asking the right, sometimes tough questions?

Curious Leadership isn’t about asking questions — it’s about asking the hard questions. The ones you might be afraid to hear the answers to. Fear, however, can lead to your greatest fears coming true. While hearing the answer might be painful, not hearing it will only compound the issue. So how does one become a curious leader?

Leaders are free to ask questions — and provide solutions. The combined brainpower of your team is larger than the brainpower of you alone. Talking to your team, building trust is a two-way street.

A KEY COMPONENT-LISTEN. Meditate on the conversation. Write out what you hear. Meditate some more. Then examine and execute the right plan. Keep the integrity of the team ALWAYS.

Create a Plan and Be Consistent. Ask the Same Question More than Once. Turn Ideas into Action.

Why Is Curiosity Important? It makes your mind active instead of passive. It makes your mind observant of new ideas. It opens up new worlds and possibilities. It brings excitement into your life.

How to Develop Curiosity: Keep an open mind. Ideas are fun to explore. Don’t take things as granted. Dig deeper and find out what is hidden, then use it. NEVER label something as boring. Curious people are unlikely to call something as boring. Instead, they always see it as a door to an exciting new world.

See learning as something fun. Excitement rocks the creative world bringing new ideas and solutions to any situation.

Listen more than you talk.

This sounds simple, but the key to great questions is active listening. Active listening is the process of understanding what another person is saying — both explicitly and implicitly — while showing then you are engaged and interested.

Research shows that when we rush decision, we often regret them even if they end up being correct. It will benefit you to work with people who display curiosity. They tend to ask questions to further the conversation. Not to play it safe.

Are you READY to begin your NEW LIFE? Will you meet with me and share ideas and listen to proven ideas that work to make money?Will you invest into your own life and business? Will you ask for help when stumped?

Are You A Builder Beaver

Let’s have some fun today. Michael The Traveling Trucker compares a beaver with a business leader.

Beavers are one of the few animals that modify their habitat. Are you modifying your business to suit your present situation?

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

With powerful jaws and strong teeth, they fell trees in order to build homes and dams, often changing their environment in ways few other animals can. With strong words and business savvy you build a business changing your environment to build a lifestyle few can accomplish. In fact, the idioms “busy as a beaver” and “eager beaver” are synonymous with being industrious and hardworking. Does this sound like you?

All beavers need water to survive. They live in or around freshwater ponds, lakes, rivers, marshes and swamps.  Business leaders live on the internet cafe’s or beaches. Anywhere you have a internet connection. They are building their list of like minded business people.

Beavers have a tremendous impact on the eccosystem. Business leaders build businesses that are ecco friendly through a variety of products and services.

Beavers are social animals; they live in colonies and work together. Business leaders are social animals and love to work together making their colony enjoyable to live and work.

Let’s focus on leaders .

Why is it important to know your own leadership style?

As a leader, understanding your leadership style is critically important. When you understand your leadership style, you can determine how this affects those you directly influence.

Leadership comes in many shapes, forms and people. So, let’s put a face to the name of these top seven leadership styles.

Leadership Style #1 Transformational Leader

Often called “blue sky thinkers”, transformational types of leaders are growth minded. They inspire followers through effective communication and create environments of intellectual stimulation and innovation.

Leadership Style #2 Servant Leader

Servant leaders operate in the service of their followers.

This style of leadership focuses on power-sharing models of authority by prioritising the needs of followers and encouraging collective decision-making.

Leadership Style#3 Delegative Leadership

Often referred to as “laissez-faire,” a delegative leadership style focuses on delegating initiative to team members. This is generally known as one of the least intrusive forms of leadership; this translates to “let them do.” This is therefore considered a very hand-off leadership style.

Leadership Style #4 Authoritative Leadership

Authoritative leaders are often referred to as visionary. Leaders who adopt this style consider themselves mentors to their followers. Not to be confused with authoritarian leadership, authoritative leadership emphasizes a “follow me” approach. This way, leaders chart a course and encourage those around them to follow.

Leadership Style #5 Participative Leadership

Sometimes referred to as democratic leadership, participative leadership is a leadership style that encourages leaders to listen to their employees and involve them in the decision-making process. This leadership style requires leaders to be inclusive, utilize good communication skills, and, crucially, be able to share power/responsibility.

Whatever you choose, be open and honest. Be the best you can be so you can help others effectly with love. What kind of leader would I be without some of my own style. Click Here for the #1 Business Model for 2023.
