Transform Your Thinking By Following Through
It’s that time again for another transform your thinking post. All who don’t want to transform their mind and cultivate it for success are free to stop reading now, catch up with us on another day.
If you’re still here, you must be reading for some mind changing goodness! Today I have something good for you that I know we all deal with from time to time. It has to do with all the various amounts of information we as entrepreneurs consume on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis. Now, I’m not going to talk about limiting the stuff you try to consume, not in this post, right now I want to talk about how you consume it.
The main thing I want to get across to you today is to FOLLOW THROUGH! Yes, simply put, when you start that book, that course, that report, or that info product….don’t move on until you FINISH! Ohhhhhhh to the naysayers it may seem so simple, but oh how they would be so wrong.
Don’t Move To The Next Resource Until You FINISH
Yeah, I think I’ve created a new term: EADD.. entrepreneurial attention defecit disorder! As business minded folks, we are always thinking and always brainstorming. This is not a bad thing in itself, but when it comes time to focus….it usually get’s the best of us! We are moving along, reading a nice little resource, watching some training, or whatever the case may be and BAM!!!
Something we read, hear, or see in the current resource triggers out entrepreneurial money gland and we immediately start thinking of how we can implement this new idea, which may only remotely be related to the resource we are reading.
I’m not talking about ideas we get from the subject matter, that relates, but those ideas we get that probably weren’t even what the resource was intended for. Or…we go off and start researching this whole other topic, and never come back to finish the initial resource.
Example: You are reading a nice book about adsense, then, somewhere in the book the author mentions ppc, now, instead of finishing the adsense book you go off and start “collecting” information relating to ppc. And so the cycle continues. (I’ll get into information collecting in a future installment)
I understand we get inspired…but don’t abandon what you started! If it’s that good, jot it down in your notes so you can get back to it, you’ll find it hard to consume information on a topic if you never complete the resource! Oh yes, I am speaking from EXPERIENCE! So next time you start a book, course, report, or whatever it is, finish it first before moving on. Trust me, you’ll love it!

ASUS eePc 2G Surf That I Won From Big Ben Patton And Market Leverage
By Normal Joe | October 22, 2008
If you don’t remember, I won an Asus eepc from Big Ben’s contest that was sponsored by Market Leverage. Today I just wanted to give you a little review about it and show you what I got in the package! Also, I’ve been having some issues with viddler lately and showing my videos. Their site has been down a couple times within the last week so I am looking for another main site to use. I need it to allow larger than 100mb and longer than 10 minute videos if needed. Luckily I’ve been shooting my videos to other sites at lower res with video post robot, but I miss doing it on some of them and forget!
Anyway, check it out, tell me what you think and let me know if you have any recommendations on the video site to use!
my videos take over the net with video post robot

The Science Of Getting Rich Book Reviewed By A Normal Joe

The Science Of Getting Rich And What I Think About It
I just finished up reading this classic book by Wallace D Wattles last week. I’ve heard so much about it from various gurus, business people, and affluent folks the world over. Okay, I didn’t actually hear it from them…I read it! The more stories I read about successful folks, the more this and a few other books came up, so, I naturally had to get it.
What are my thoughts? Well, it was a good book. It lined up a lot with the things I have been talking about lately, in regards to having the proper mindset for success. It’s not just about imagining something and seeing it appear out of nowhere, it talks about taking action.
Fixing your mind on success, not allowing any negative thoughts or people deter you, and operating as though you alread have it. Being grateful for every single thing you have, and realizing their is an abundance. Sure, some of the language was a little dated, being as this book was written many years ago.
However, the underlying theme of the book still rings true. As with anything, you take what you need and leave the rest. I can definitely see what so many sum bees recommend this book, it gets you in the proper mindset to prepare yourself to recieve success.
You can click on the book cover if you’re interested, also, I setup a new section on the blog to hold all my books. It’s cleverly title “Books” in the navigation menu! You know you like how I named that joint, don’t front on me, you like it huh? You can find books I’ve read, or books I want to read over there. Checkout Joe’s Book Club.
