We are all seeds and were planted here on earth to grow. Regardless of your religious preference the truth is we were planted here on the planet called earth. Similar to a seed, at first glance who knows what a seed will bloom into. Will it be a plant, will it be a flower, will it be a fruit? First things first it must be planted.
Planting with intention is usually being done by two parties. The living being and the seed who want to become a living being, before anything can happen, there must be a connection to a source. On earth the source for growing is a combination of the earth and the sun. So basically something physical being shined on by something it can not touch but can see and feel. You and I were once seeds. We have grown physically by default, because with the correct amount of soil, sun light, water and oxygen something will grow. As a spiritual being, which is the mechanism inside the seed, we anticipate what it will grown into. Will you be a blade of grass, a fruit tree a dandelion. What will you be? Better yet what do you "be", right now. None of us know what we are suppose to be because we are to busy looking at everything else simply be, while at the same time forgetting to be ourselves. Here’s a mental mini video………… You are a cartooned seed with human characteristics and you have been planted. You don’t know what you are. You can’t see yourself (spirit) you just know you are a seed (human) As a human being ( a spirit in body) experience this life, and looking outward, you begin to pay attention to all of the other seeds. You pay attention to the seeds that are more successful than you in their growth and development (Spiritual Englightenment) In aw of their progress you the cartooned spirit image forget what you are suppose to do. You lose connection to the source, not entirely but just enough to forget to do what matters. So busy praising others for their talents and creations, turning people into stars, when its really the other way around. What are stars? The main star for a seed to focus on is the sun.. No good use of sunlight and the growth is not as good as it could have been, if any at all. As a cartoon seed you see everyone growing into something magnificent, as you stay stunted in your own advancements. What about us as human beings? Remember we are simply the shell. We are the seed coating. What is inside of us is what matters. This is what defines who we be. For example what is inside a plum seed defines it as being a plum, all the plum seeds to do is stay plugged into earth, and the sunlight and with the proper nourishment mainly water (living water), and Oxygen, that plum seed will transform into the plum. It’s about transformation. People say oh experience a transformation. People think this means changing into something else completely. Well this is not what it means. When you experience transformation from a plum seed to a plum tree the mechanics inside the plum seed and the plum are the same. On top of this plum seeds don’t simply turn into plum trees, there is a process that starts in the earth ad then begins to show as it breaks through. (again breakthrough used as a word but not explained) We are breaking through meaning growth is beginning to show. You had already started under the soil, but the sprouting gives us that first site of something actually happening. Now that the break through has begun the seeding can not stop. You can’t be like I experienced a break through and it’s all good now. We want more. We want to experience the juicy plum and it’s sweet taste. In this space we have to wait as the process takes place. Plant the seeds, seed sprouts, turns toward the light, grows with water as it continues to grow it thickens it’s trunk and then begins to grow branches, that grow buds, that grow fruit. This is who we are. We are the tree of life, if we so choose. We produce fruit. We were once seeds. We grew we developed, we are now fully aware. Maybe by the age 13, we are at the age of accountability. We are aware we are fruitful and now we can bear fruit (ideas) these idea seeds are planted. Now they have to grow but these idea seeds are us we are the seeds we “be” the mechanism that will produce what we are. Example…..I am a publisher, and I prefer to refer to myself as an artist. There are plenty of ideas inside of me that are manifesting into the fruit that “I am”. I must first plant my ideas inside of me, because I am made from the earth. I then stay connected to my light source the divine creator of all beings. I water my ideas and nurture my ideas. I breath the breath of life. When my idea sprouts (break through) I don’t stop. I don’t say, “All done what’s next?’ No, I stay focused with intention to work physically with my idea. Your idea although a spiritually grown idea (organic) must use part physical and non physical (the source of all beings) to manifest into a fruitful experience. If you get too consumed with the physical for example ( the outcome) the soil, the surroundings and environment although important without light, nothing will happen. Darkness is simply the absence of light, however both work together. What’s unique is that the Tree of Life is what we want, but the tree of knowledge that we are, is that we can produce many different types of fruit all from one tree as long as we the put our focus and our minds on what will produce the best outcome. (The Divine Creator) We must stay connected and let our fruit manifest. We are not attached to what the outcome will look like that is not our concern. As a fruitful tree we will simply produce. If it is edible it’s because we were focused. This means that if our ideas manifest into something good, we know we were focused on the Divine. I you get something not so “tasty” then something got distracted during that development process. So you are what you are. You are a production tree. You can have a 9-5 live in a tent or hunt plastic bottles all day and that is fine. Do it with enjoyment and that enjoyment will continue to water you growing plant. We must make our dreams a physical reality. After work if you enjoy painting then you should paint, and if you enjoy singing then sing, sports then play nature than hike. Having a job doesn’t mean you can not produce your fruit. We want to produce so much fruit so that it’s possible that we don’t need a job having one or not having one doesn’t make the fruit from your tree any more sweeter. All that is needed to procure your desires is physical, non physical and living water. Nourish your desires. You can do something that you enjoy doing and possibly money will be the manifested result on your tree as more fruit, or you can produce money, “fruit first” and then your desires. You may get less time to eat your fruit when you put your physical work first, but at least you get to enjoy it. There are human beings right now who only wait to produce money fruit, trying to do it their way, but usually when we do this we end up missing out as we trade 8 hours of our lives a day in exchange. Then there are others who just “be” the procurer of their own desires, and experience money by divine default .

The one destructive practice of network marketing is the lack of a retention strategy. The turn over in direct sales with tiered commission structures is very high. This problem can be easily corrected, but before we talk about the correction let us touch base on where this theory stems from.
The selling point of being your own boss has destroyed your chances of ever being just that, because if you can NOT keep an organization you most certainly will not make any money. Network marketers pride themselves on being their own boss, or they may feel really good about the fact that they don't micro manage there down lines. In traditional business there is always someone who is responsible for a sub group of people. As their responsibility dictates, they must maintain some type of morale amongst their group as well as creating a healthy and productive work space. When we begin to play the Net Market, we get caught up in the idea of being, "independent"....You know, the working for yourself but not by yourself. This is a simple play on words, yet most don't get it. Many don't understand that this means working together as a solid team. If a company had a floor made up entirely of sales people, and these sales people on average for selling 500 dollars in products monthly. As the organizational leader, you earn 10 percent of your recruits if you have any. So in this example you do, you have 5. All the company recommends is 5 and this number will work if played correctly. So this means you are earning 50 bucks times 5. This is an extra $250 dollars. Isn't it worth it to you to join a business and continue walking and talking with an intention of obtaining the 5. Wouldn't the $250 be worth it to you if that meant not having or having
Take this as an example, if Tina, knows Kate and Kate agrees to throw Tina a retail party that Kate will invite as many friends as she could get there. All of these ladies who come to this party use products like shampoo, lotions, soaps, skin care and other like items. Let's say 9 ladies came to Tina's retail party and because all of them understand the concept of playing the net market everyone starts to win. Tina is a distributors, when Kate and the others hear the presentation Kate will in turn choose to join the business as well. Now from here because of the presentation it makes since for everyone in the room to come in as a member to at least earn the benefit of purchasing within our own little network for the discounts and referral payouts. So in this example Tina brings in Kate who brings in Christy, Linda and Kim on her first leg Christy brings in 3 Linda brings in three and Kim brings in 3. There were 14 people at the party including Kate and Tina. So now Kate has done more than just earned a silly hosting gift, she's earned a stream of income. Everyone at the party has the potential to earn an income. Especially the third level of ladies. These ladies should automatically be signing up for a party to be done at their home as well to continue the wealth. This doesn't happen though. Many times prospects are scared away by the facilitator advocating how wonderful it is to purchase the most expensive buy in. There's no point of selling someone something they have no intention of using, but the opportunity sales itself and everybody wins in these types of scenarios. Especially when memberships are so affordable, and some are even free. Recruiters want to recruit the larger package buy ins because of the first month bonus potential. The 100 or so bonus that a recruiter will earn is nothing compared to the hundreds of orders within their organization that they can earn a percentage of regardless of if the distributor comes in high or low. Coming in at a higher rate more so benefits the person buying their way into the organization. If that person doesn't want to take advantage of the perks of coming in high then that's their choice, but don't set it up to where they don't come in at all. When an organization works together in the same way that a company will work, the organization will make more money. When accountability is a science and not a religion, everyone will do it because that's the way it is. It's organized. Everybody plays a part, and everyone does their part. We do have a checks and balance system because we need to make sure our money is right we want to win as a team. The Sponsor takes his or her role seriously. If their recruit is in the dumps the Sponsor pulls them out. When the Recruit wants to revert back to their addiction to laziness as a Sponsor you must talk them away from those urges. When everyone truly works together as an organization in the same way any other structured corporate business would, pay checks will come like clock work just like how it use to be when you had a job, not a play date with destiny. Play the Net-Market everyone is a winner. We have all heard it before, network marketing doesn't work!! The sad truth is this that, is true, net WORK marketing does not work. Work to many of us, who do a lot of it and only end up with a little bit left after it's all said and done hate the word work, and quite frankly we hate working in general. So of course someone will join, get the wrong idea, and quit because they think working is going to get them no where the same way as their job is getting them no where now.....or lack there of.
So let's change the name. When people are engaged with the Stock Market, they don't say, "I'm working the Stock Market", they say, "I'm playing the stock market". The distinction in these two words is very powerful. When you go into something like it's a game, your goal is to win. When you are a playing a game, you are having fun with the intention of winning. We don't just stop playing our game and walk off, we stay to the very end. We take every hop on the game board, we touch every base on the baseball field, we shoot every available basket on the basketball court, and we play with energy and excitement. So let's start playing the net market. Find a business that excites you, one that you think will do really well. It doesn't matter if anyone else thinks your business is not the best, you must believe it is the best so that you can "invest" the proper amount of time into your business. Understand the compensation plan and play your compensation plan. What is required of you in order to win. How many hurdles are their, and how high are they? When you play the game the way the compensation plan says to play it, and you play all the way to the end you will have fun. The sad thing is there are so many people in network marketing who probably could not even tell you what the ranking order is and how you get there, plus any additional bonus opportunities. Just remember the one who reads the game board instructions, usually wins the game. I'm the baby, the baby of the house
I'm small, happy and quite like a mouse (when I'm not crying) I can't do much just yet but for a baby I'm quite set I have a few toys to chew and hold Snuggely pajamas for when it's cold My feet stay clean, because I never have to walk So people kiss them and talk baby talk I love cuddling with my Mama with her I'm safe, there is no drama and sometimes she kisses me right on the head and snuggles me all night instead of sending me to bed Even when she's sleepy and rubbing her eyes she sits right by my side, it's no surprise because she loves me, she loves me, she loves me so much I can tell by her loving touch When sleeping for me is not in site she keeps me company all through the night and soon enough I'm over stocked with security Happily I fall asleep thanks to her loves purity My mind, my mind, my cluttered mind. come to find out after 33 years of life, that my mind is the way it is because I am bipolar. I'm also a creative genius, but I have no money to show for it because I never finish anything, which brings me to this next idea. This book will be a short story book for adults. I'm not doing it in search of some new genre or trend, I'm doing it because, I already know I will get two or three pages into these "adult themed books" and then forget all about it, as if I never had the idea in the first place. See for me it's much easier to just write short stories. Actually that's this book exactly, my life has prepared me for everything. It's like my world has been a jumbled ball of experiments, but I never stuck around for the end result. Now I can be around for the end result because I believe I finally found the missing element.
I just had one of those epiphany things I have like all the time. See recently I applied for a really great job. I was ready to go back to work because my kids are in school, and I can go back to the mainstream job market if I wanted to. WRONG, apparently when you take off time to be a stay-at-mom you get punished because of the big fat hole in your resume, and trying to fill it in with network marketing opportunities doesn't really hold much wait to the "employed" people of America. I love the possibilities that network marketing offer, but it didn't dawn on me the power of that possibility until just a little while ago.
I was publishing an article for a web site I contribute to, about a new network marketing business opportunity. Then I thought about the design, especially for this specific business because it's so parallel to raising a family. As a Network Marketer, you are usually looking for someone to partner with, and the goal is to have about 3 or 5 offspring sort of speak. In the industry of direct marketing this actually means recruits. You raise the recruits to grow and do the exact same thing. Everyone in the direct marketing family, (organization) tells everyone they know about something really good, just like how families do with other families, when they offer referrals like dentist, car repair shops, hair dressers and any other service provider you can name. In this case I was publishing an article about parents earning money from home referring their friends and family to switch to clean, green energy at set rates, with one simple phone call. No money exchanging hands, no auto ships, just real benefits for referring a great way to protect our environment. That's when it dawned on me, the employment market punishes moms who chose to stay home with their kids, by not letting them back into the fields they once worked. Momentis, a direct sales company is doing the exact opposite. Momentis allows us to use our experience raising a family to raise a direct sales business. Once our organization is up to spead, we are rewarded with impressive income. These are the types of companies that changed and enhance lives for the better. I can't believe I put myself through unnecessary grief because I let fear tamper with my expansion recently. I've been presented with two grand opportunities lately, but because I did not have faith in myself for a brief moment in time I stunted my chances of succeeding over some bull.
I applied for a job in Corporate America. I will be honest, the idea of doing what I use to before I started my family and earn the money I use to make and then some thrilled me to the bone. It was an opportunity for me to be lazy. What I mean by lazy is, I was going to be able to do a set amount of work all the time, and make an x amount of income, consistently without having to put forth any more effort than absolutely necessary. So yes, basically I was being lazy because the opportunities I have in my possession right now are sure fire money makers if I actually do the work it takes to make the money happen. It's basically a duplicating process, but the process takes time, effort and diligent persistence. I just have not been in the right frame of mind to take on that type of responsibility. As easy as the responsibility is, I just don't feel like doing it, yet at the exact same time I want like having the financial benefit that the opportunities offer. I think this is why I always purchase network marketing opportunities and not actually work the business. I bought the dream most times, but I never lived the life because I didn't do the work. The simple duplicated work. So simple, I'm sure many of you can relate because you too have wanted to do something, and did not do what was required in order to win big. You bought the dream, but you didn't live the life. That's like buying a beautiful home, and never living in it. It's like ordering a gourmet dinner, but never taking one bite. You may think it's different because with a home or gourmet dinner you can actually see it, and with network marketing it's a "risk". It's only a risk if you don't work the business. Just like you have to lift your hand from your plate to your mouth to enjoy the taste of the gourmet food, we must take action when dealing with any life enhancing opportunities. So why have I done just that? Why have I bought the dream and not used it? You know what I mean, like buying a bicycle and never riding it, why would I do that.? Why would any of us do that, if we all actually worked these businesses we would be very well off financially. I found our recently why this is, make sure you read the following blog and learn exactly why we are sabotoging our good fortunes. Most of us grow up, not realizing the moment in which we were in fact, full fledged grown ups. Of course there were moments as a teenager when we felt we knew it all, but now we know we did not. Then there was the first cell phone, first car and WATCH OUT NOW the first apartment. That is if we were ever really dumb enough to move out of our parents home, but then something happened. Our pseudo status of adult hood, turned into a real adulthood.
You know bill payments that come printed on red or pink paper. Marriage, divorce, kids, shot records. These are just a few reminders that we have in fact reached adulthood. Now we are finally in the adult stage. This is the stage where sitting on the toilet is a great escape from the kids, at least until they swing open the door. Showers are for day dreaming, until the little ones are able to reach and open the shower door. Bubble baths are just about non existent, because what grown up has time for bubbles? Why is it we feel that we no longer have time for bubbles, coloring books and toys? What happen to the active imagination we were born with? When did we trade our soda bottles for beer bottles and who made up the phrase acquired taste? Is it that adults have learned to give up on and settle for better? Better jobs, better friends, better relationships? how about trade better for better and use our natural gifts to make it so. Life for us is like a coloring book, full of blank coloring pages. Who said we had to stay in the lines?. Oh yeah, grown ups who said the Teddy Bear must be brown, or the sun had to be yellow or yeah GROWN UPS. Who told us that our imaginary friends were not real? The friend who others could not see was a Guardian Source of Light, who only we as children could see. Who killed Imagination? Some people don’t’ like the word, “if”. They think what "if" type of questions are ridiculous. These people who disagree with the the “what if” conversations, will never get the best piece of cake at the birthday party. Deep down they have always wanted the corner piece, one of the only four chances to enjoy two sides of frosting. They wish for it, but they do not get into the “what if” frame of mind.
People with a “what if” personality reep the pleasures of fascinating about possibilities. When you understand the concept of , “what if” in it’s positive form, you have the advantage of experiencing what the actual idea really feels like, even before it happens, and this makes the possibility of it happening that much more possible. Play along for a moment, What if I told you, WAIT better yet, imagine in this moment that I am offering you a chance to win one million dollars all cash today. In order to win the million dollars, I will lay thousands of cards face down over the floor. You get a chance to draw that winning card, and if you don’t choose the winning card, we will give you another chance and we will keep giving you these chances until you win. The only catch is that you only get one chance per hour. Keep in mind, you are reassured that the the million dollar card is in this pile just as sure as the sun and moon hang in the sky and do not fall out of the sky and have been floating in open space for millions of year. I can not tell you where the card is located. You can come to me for guidance but the choice is always yours. In this example the the Million dollar card is equivalent to pure happiness, overall wellbeing, a joyful spirit and a healthy body. In this example, where we are giving you unlimited chances to win the big prize, you only get 24 chances a day. Okay now open your eyes and look at me. You have been given that same opportunity, but let’s look at how we play the game. If we sleep 8 hours a day, as we should we are down to 16 chances to win that million dollar lifestyle. In this life example the choosing of the cards simply means how we live our lives. The choices that we make. This is hard for us, because we are human. We waste so many chances a day to have a million dollar life style. The health, wellbeing, financial freedom, enthusiasm and spiritual enlightenment. We may be experiencing some of it but not all . Having all of our physical and spiritual needs met is a million dollar lifestyle. The most important strategy in looking for the million dollar lifestyle, is not flipping over the same cards, over and over again, yet this is what we do in life every day. Let’s look at this. Wake up 7am (for example) · Use the restroom · Jump into the shower. · Sit down and eat breakfast · Watch the morning news. The necessary daily routines are fine, but when we allow ourselves to feel, in this action we are simply allowing our spirit the joy of living a million dollar lifestyle. What if instead of simply doing the basics of life, we allow the spirt to feel what that feels like, by just spending a moment in that zone. As we wash your face, brush your teeth, you don’t need to think about what’s wrong. While enjoying a healthy breakfast why not skip bringing the spirit down with harmful news designed to keep us hooked just enough with their “teasers’, and instead focus on how the food is nourishing our bodies, while giving praise not just at the beginning of the meal, but with each bite truly enjoying the blessing of life, that we are experiencing in that moment. Doesn’t this sound much better than focusing on the crap happening around us? This is what we call playing our cards right, The only way to win is to stay in the game, because you are given chance after chance because the possibilities are endless. Let’s say that a friend calls, and wants to talk about how her husband did her wroing, or about a mutual friend she can’t stand. Here is our chance to play your card of the hour. Get off the phone with that person infecting you with their negative energy. A better use of your card for that hour is to find something to do. Plant a flower, read a book, write something, sing. Do what ever feels good to you. Maybe even when your mind wonders in these moments you feel that million dollar life style. Let’s look at how a phone call can mess up your chances to win big. Lisa calls Trish….”Guirl whatcha doin”?” “ OMG why did I just leave from over James house and that bitch Carmen was pullin in the drive way, I can’t stand her” Even just listening to this example, puts us in an uncomfortable state of mind, however this is what we have been taught. Thall shall not gossip, is not to protect the one you are gossiping about, it’s to protect you from feeling that empty feeling from doing it. Dishing the scoop may seem like fun, but once it’s been done the fun never last for long. Here is the thing, most times when we gossip, it’s not going to get back to the person we were talking mess about. Knowing this we think everything is fine with it and no one is going to get hurt. Not only does creating nasty energy affect you, it also hurts your chances of winning that million dollar lifes style, because gossiping jacks up your emotional receiver. We have friends who are dealing with their crap, and we let them dump that crap on us because we want to be a “good friend” WRONG. Then after they dump all there crap we tell them to give it to God. We are so nosey and hungry for pain that we will sit through someone elses reinacted pain. Now lets’ go a little bit deeper, so that we really understand the Million Dollar Life Style. Your friend who is experiencing issues beyond her control because when she had the chance to **get off the phone with a negative friend, **and spent her time complaining and **envying others, **constantly worried and afraid, **anxious and impatient, in this example "she" is setting the stage for the scene in her life, and although we have no idea of what that scene looks like, we do know for a fact that the neither does our example, but she can bet what ever it is she won’t have any control over it. This is what we do. WE waste all of our chances, every day. Now “if” it was a real game of million dollar lifestyle, we would not stop choosing our cards by the hour for as long as it takes, but when it’s our life we wsate so many chances, eliminating our chances of winning sooner rather than later. If plants take in sunlight and turn it into food, why are not more of us taking in the light of our Divine Creator and turning that light into spiritual food? How tall, proud, vibrant and beautiful would we be if we did? Now we understand why plants always gear toward the light.
