<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwJZ4nmMH2RBgUm4tGe7D8M2BPc1KqIIkpXQeq61hnNZxAX82vctaO-voJzWiXwjFuiACbqEzFlWxxbE-9yyGdoxIydKQiL5bEtDuxRjsGEtIElWy3swmM6jwSstiWT7scKtLpbliDNUKU/s1600/Room+for+Rent.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwJZ4nmMH2RBgUm4tGe7D8M2BPc1KqIIkpXQeq61hnNZxAX82vctaO-voJzWiXwjFuiACbqEzFlWxxbE-9yyGdoxIydKQiL5bEtDuxRjsGEtIElWy3swmM6jwSstiWT7scKtLpbliDNUKU/s320/Room+for+Rent.jpg" width="320" /></a><br />
<br />
<br />
Do you live in a house and have a room that you do absolutely nothing with but store all your crap that you need to throw away? <br />
<br />
Do you rent an apartment with an extra room that you use as an office but you never go in there? And for you people with a one-bedroom apartment, do you have a couch someone could sleep on?<br />
<br />
But most importantly, do you live in or near a big metropolitan location where plenty of people like to travel to sightsee or attend educational or business conventions?<br />
<br />
If you have any of these options and you need to make some money, then you should think about renting out a room, a bed or a couch to make extra money.<br />
<br />
I personally have a friend that bought a two-bedroom one and half bath house in a nice university town in the Bay Area that rents out her room maybe two weekends out of the month on average which gains her 60% of her mortgage payment. If you have room to spare you should really think of taking advantage of the many "vacay rental" or "couch surfing" sites like <a href="http://www.airbnb.com/x/rosalindw59">AirBnB</a>.<br />
<br />
It's very simple (not easy, just simple) and lucrative as long as you follow a few tips:<br />
<br />
1. You have to be okay with people living in the same space you live in. It's important to get your mindset right. Even if you have a separate space with a separate entrance to offer, you will still hear noises or have to deal with occasional requests and problems.<br />
<br />
2. Take all your personal effects out of the room. Think hotel room when you are cleaning and clearing the room. Have useful items in it for a guest staying there, but those are the only items that should be in that space.<br />
<br />
3. Make sure your landlord is okay with this if you rent. Make sure your home association will permit this activity if you own. It's a good idea to check your local zoning laws as well.<br />
<br />
4. Clean the place, or better yet have a professional cleaner come in and do a deep clean. Make sure everything in the space works (windows should open easily, doors should close tightly and locks work, fire extinguishers, fire alarms, etc.) Even if you have all kinds of things not functioning in the rest of the house, make sure wherever the guests are placed everything is working well.<br />
<br />
5. Light the room well and take great photos. If you are not very good at taking photos, get a friend that it's into photography or even a photography student from your local community college to come in and take some shots.<br />
<br />
<b><u>How to get the highest ratings and make the most money</u></b><br />
<br />
There is one word that that will get you more money and high-star ratings: AMENITIES. There are three things you need to be concerned about. Cleanliness, Safety, and Amenities. Think about investing in a professional cleaning service. Make sure the space you are renting out is super clean. You can add a "cleaning fee" to your rate on your room to recoup that expense. Safety is key, make sure you have smoke alarms, carbon monoxide detectors, first aid kit and fire extinguishers fully functional.<br />
<br />
But what will put things over the top are the amenities in your room. When you think of amenities, think of these items:<br />
<br />
<i><u>Electronics</u></i><br />
Wi-Fi access<br />
Television with a <a href="https://amzn.to/2MQkrQS" target="_blank">Firestick attachment</a> (Netflix)<br />

<br />
<i><u>Grooming</u></i><br />
<a href="https://amzn.to/2ZIv22h" target="_blank">Hair Dryer</a><br />
Non-Frangrance shampoos, soap, and lotions<br />
Extra toothbrushes, toothpaste, and tissues<br />
<a href="https://amzn.to/2ZHnxZt" target="_blank">Iron</a> and <a href="https://amzn.to/2NPb4Rj" target="_blank">Ironing board</a><br />

<br />
<i><u>Snacking</u></i><br />

Coffee, teas, cream/sugar, honey, etc.<br />

<br />
<i><u>Sleeping/Bedding</u></i><br />

<br />
<i><u>The wow factor</u></i><br />

<a href="https://amzn.to/2ZE7QlS" target="_blank">Fresh Flowers</a><br />
Local area books and magazines<br />
Card with a personalized message for guests<br />
<br />
Consider listing every amenity you provide. This will allow you to compete with top-ranking host properties.<br />
<br />
You can make even more money if you are able to rent out an entire apartment, condo or house.<br />

<br />
Do you have old computers, tablets, phones, printer, routers, etc. laying around? Do you know you are sitting on money? Did your wife get all your old devices together and put them in a box in the garage for you to take to the recycling center? DON'T.<br />
<br />
Recycling those old items for free (even if they are not working) is like throwing dollar bills into the wind! Don't throw your money away.<br />
<br />
There are many places that offer cash for your old electronics. There are retailers that offer trade-in programs that can give you gift cards for your old tech. And believe it or not, there is a way to make selling your old tech items a full-time endeavor that can give you a substantial income.<br />
<br />
The idea of a substantial income piqued your interest, huh? Let me show you how to get some quick cash and maybe an ongoing income.<br />

So basically, the way you sell your used items usually goes like this:<br />
<u style="background-color: white; color: #262424; font-family: "Trebuchet MS", Trebuchet, sans-serif; font-size: 15.4px;"><b><br /></b></u><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #262424;">1. Visit one of the websites I will list below. Type in (or choose) the make, model, and condition of the electronic device. Describe any defects. Some will just simply ask you to take a picture of the item and upload it to their system.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #262424;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #262424;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #262424;">2. When you send them info and pictures through the website or app, they will send you a quote of the value of the item within 24 hours.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #262424;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #262424;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #262424;">3. If you agree with the quote, they will send you a postage label or tell you where you can <i>download</i> the postage label. Make sure you carefully read the instructions for packing up the item and mail it out immediately.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #262424;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #262424;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #262424;">4. They usually send you an email or text when the item is delivered to you, they assess your item, and if it's exactly as you describe they notify you of payment. Most will pay through Paypal. Some by check. Some by GiftCard. Payment is usually pretty fast within 3-5 days.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #262424;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #262424;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #262424;">And </span><i style="background-color: white; color: #262424;"><b>that</b></i><span style="background-color: white; color: #262424;"> is how it's actually done. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #262424;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #262424;"><b><i><u>How to expand and make even MORE MONEY!</u></i></b></span></span><br />
<br />
After you have successfully sold all your old tech, you can make even more money by offering to get rid of all the old tech lying around your family and friend's houses. All you have to do is ask them if they want to get rid of their old electronics. Most people will be happy to get the junk out of their closets, cabinets, and garages.<br />
<br />
Now, take their old electronics and repeat what you did when you sold your old devices. Suggestion: be a good friend, and give your family and friends a small percentage of your proceeds (5%-10% of what you get, is nice). Dropping a little cash, or a gift card as a "thank you" will give your family and friends incentive to call you later when they have more old electronics to get rid of. They will probably also tell "their" friends about what you can do and through simple "word of mouth" you can expand your "quick money" endeavor into an extra income activity.<br />

After your "family and friends" start spreading the word around and you have gained a pretty good reputation on getting rid of old electronics, think about contacting local businesses, schools, and organizations that may have a truckload of old electronics and now you have items in bulk to sell.<br />
<br />
There are different companies that will take electronics in bulk. If you decide to go this route then you need to consider:<br />
<br />
<a href="http://teletraders.net/">TeleTraders.net</a> - PCs, used network hardware, phone systems and any other old electronics.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://capasset.com/" target="_blank">Capitol Asset</a> - They buy IT assets when companies liquidate their assets.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b><i><u>Other ways to make money with old electronics</u></i></b><br />
<br />
Always remember that many times you can sell PARTS for much more money than selling items whole. And if you decide to sell parts e-Bay is one of your best tools. Local scrap yards will pay you for whatever parts are leftover.<br />
<br />
If you have never used E-bay to sell items, here is a simple guide to help you get started quickly. <a href="https://www.wikihow.com/Sell-on-eBay" target="_blank">WikiHow: How to Sell on E-bay (Beginner's Guide)</a><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQ750cw5LQJxecW_nzY6XxdrNFc9h9rvbMyY0-cfxcMhOhVaG8fEQUDlGUpGLnDFQUslbRTQfq_YgW7Zna4i3wD0NgXw2LvLOyp4uLWdU1EGHVW18zbEKSHdN8UgnO3Tux81HbjJ3fOvI8/s1600/recession.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="773" data-original-width="1160" height="265" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQ750cw5LQJxecW_nzY6XxdrNFc9h9rvbMyY0-cfxcMhOhVaG8fEQUDlGUpGLnDFQUslbRTQfq_YgW7Zna4i3wD0NgXw2LvLOyp4uLWdU1EGHVW18zbEKSHdN8UgnO3Tux81HbjJ3fOvI8/s400/recession.jpeg" width="400" /></a></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Well, the news is spreading that we are in line for a recession. All the economist say that the signs are very clear that this is inevitable. I found a really great video that explains why we are heading for a recession today. It's a really informative video and the guy explains if very plainly. Click the video below.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The analysis is that this is happening due to Trump's Tariff War with China. However, most of us really don't care <b><i>why</i></b> it's happening, people want to know <b><i>what to do to survive</i></b> the recession.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<iframe width="320" height="266" class="YOUTUBE-iframe-video" data-thumbnail-src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/B-Sh6jtGuUg/0.jpg" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/B-Sh6jtGuUg?feature=player_embedded" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />Well, you are in luck. Economists say that we have nine (9) months to a year (12 months) to prepare for the inevitable, so if you are reading this right now you are very fortunate. If you take the steps outlined in the post you will bless me over and over because you will be able to ride out Trump's Recession like a seagull floating on a stormy sea - you'll feel the waves but it won't destroy you.<br /><br />Ready? Here we go.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">1. <b><u>Save as much money as you possibly can</u></b>. <br /><br />Save every damn penny (it's gonna count, believe me). This is a time to put your energy in a side job, an extra gig, freelance work and sock away every cent of that extra money you earn. Saving money in an interest-bearing account is optimal, but just saving money in a safe account will put you ahead of 99% of the population.<br /><br />How much should you save? Well, you are going to want to have a minimum of about two to three months of expenses. Having six months or more is really the goal. It's exceedingly difficult to find a new job during a recession and usually, it will take about six (6) months to find something when the economy is sluggish. The goal is to allow you to survive and not become one of "the homeless" if or when your current primary income disappears (which often happens during recessions).</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">2. <b><u>Lower your monthly expenses</u></b></span><span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<br style="font-size: x-large;" />
<span style="font-size: large;">Get rid of <b><i>everything</i></b> you don't need. And I mean <b><i>everything you don't</i></b> need to survive. Get rid of software and magazine subscriptions, cable TV, high-end phone packages, trips to Starbucks, etc. Get your expenses as low as possible so that all the money you save in <i>Instruction #1</i> would stretch much further and longer for you. Do this now, not later. <br /><br /><b><i>Extra Tip:</i></b> And also make a list of additional things you are keeping but can live without if things get really, really bad for you.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">3. <b style="text-decoration-line: underline;">Start job hunting and job networking </b><i><u>now</u></i><b style="text-decoration-line: underline;">.</b></span><span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<br style="font-size: x-large;" />
<span style="font-size: large;">Update your resume. Update your LinkedIN profile and start networking now, today, as soon as possible. Don't wait on this. Make new friends get to know some people who are top of the scale at local companies or people who own their companies. Get on their radar and make sure they know that you are open to opportunities with them. Make contacts with powerful people. You are going to need these powerful and influential friends during the recession. When opportunities are slim, people with connections tend to fair better. Make those connections now!</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">4. <u><b>Set up extra income, </b><i>now</i><b>!</b></u></span><span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<br style="font-size: x-large;" />
<span style="font-size: large;">Start finding and setting up ways you can make extra or passive income. Do that now . . . not later, now! Understand doing side activities to gain extra income is very important for several reasons:</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Reason #1: It takes some time to build up a good income from side gigs. It takes even more time to gain money from passive income activities. So you really need the 9-12 months that economists are predicting the recession will be felt by all of us to build up this income source. Use this time to ramp up your extra income possibilities.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Reason #2: This side (extra) income may become your primary or only income in the future recession. So put some effort in doing this. In fact, if you can more than one extra income stream that the better for you!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Reason #3: Save all the money you make on these side gigs for the next 9 to 12 months to get you to the Instruction #1 goal faster.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">5. <b><u>Pay down as much debt as you can</u></b></span><br />
<br style="font-size: x-large;" />
<span style="font-size: large;">How do you do that? Simple. Sell everything. You are probably just like me, you probably have closets full of stuff you haven't touched in years. You have so much stuff in your two-car garage that you can't even put one car in it. Your cabinets are full of stuff that you were going to use "later." Take it out, dust it or clean it off and sell it. It's easy to list items on E-bay, Facebook MarketPlace, Craigslist, and Amazon. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Here are some places to go to help you quickly start.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Use every penny from those sales to pay off your debt, <i>every $.01</i>! You'll thank me later.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">6. <b><u>Adjust your 401(K) & Investment Portfolio</u></b></span><br />
<br style="font-size: x-large;" />
<span style="font-size: large;">This is the time to move most of your money from the growth-high risk option to the safe slow-growth option. It's all about preserving your hard-earned dollars here. You worked hard to put that money in your portfolio, try to preserve your hard work as long as you can. Don't worry, it won't be forever. As soon as the signs of recession are over, just flip them back into your high growth options in a couple of years.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">7. Commit to <b>no big purchases for one year.</b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">You know what "big purchases" are. Big two-week vacations for the entire family, that new car you were thinking about leasing or buying, the possibility of buying a house. Hold that dream for just a second (12-18 months). You'll be able to do it later after the crashing waves of recession calm down.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">That's it, my friends, if you follow this advice you should weather the storm nicely. Afterall, you are all my powerful and influential friends and I want to keep you that way. </span><br />

Did you know that there is a whole national non-profit organization that specializes in placing Americans with Disability and Disable Veterans with jobs? Did you know that they've been doing this successfully since 1995?<br />
<br />
How cool is that!<br />
<br />
If you receive SSI or SSDI (disability benefits) and are between 18 and 64 you should definitely check out this organization. Their site NTI@Home specializes in helping folks on disability so don't worry about losing your benefits while working with them.<br />
<br />
Most of the jobs are Call Center, Sales, Customer Service, and Help Desk jobs but that's fine because their clients are BIG companies like AT&T, Google, Amazon and so on.<br />
<br />
It costs nothing to be part of the program and to find a job through them. So, <a href="https://www.ntiathome.org/">you should visit and learn the steps</a> you have to take to participate in the program!<br /><br />This is an amazing opportunity for my powerful and influential friends!<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">If you don't hear opportunity knocking than you are not very perceptive. Opportunity is always knocking. The opportunities are overwhelming if your eyes are open, your ears are open and your senses are working. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Right now, I'm frustrated because all around me are opportunities to make more money, make passive income and I can't write and research fast enough to tell you all about them. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Open your mind! Use your senses. Tell yourself money is all around you, the opportunity is not just knocking on your door but thumping on your forehead. If you don't hear the knocking, it's because you are distracted or just don't want to hear the knocking.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">As my son likes to point out to me whenever I have questions about anything, "Mom, you have a whole computer in your hands." (meaning my smartphone). Today, if you are searching for opportunity all you have to do is using your fingers on the device in your hand. These days, you have an infinite number of resources at your disposal. Use them!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">What I'm saying is ultimately, if opportunity doesn't come knocking . . . honey, you have knuckles start knocking on doors, windows, walls until you discover your next big break.</span></div>

As I like to often say, "<i>Money is EVERYWHERE</i>" and the only limit in your gaining some of it is the limitation of your mind. If you just expand your thinking a little bit, you can find ways to make more money and be able to take care of some debt, yourself, and your dreams.<br />
<br />
Just to prove my point (that there is money everywhere, we just have to open our eyes and receive it) I thought I would give you some weird and unique ways that you can make money outside of the usual ways we think we can acquire more funds, cash flow and money. It was really fun and I found some amazing ways to make money! Let's look at <b><i>some</i></b>.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b><a href="https://buyandsellhair.com/">Selling Human Hair</a></b><br />
Visit Buyandsellhair.com - human hair marketplace<br />
Have really long hair? Want to make some money? This website is the original website that is a marketplace for human hair. It's a wonderful informational site that has <i>Selling Hair Guide</i> and a <i>Guide to help you avoid scams</i>.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://sofiagray.com/"><b>Selling Used Underwear</b></a><br />
SofiaGray.com is the trading place and marketplace for used underwear. <span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">S<span style="color: #181515;">afety and anonymity are our greatest concern at this website so they ensure that all buyer’s, sellers and even casual browsers of Sofia Gray remain anonymous. They take no commission on sales. They claim that on average, "<i>each active seller successfully sells 8 pairs of underwear each month</i>." </span></span><br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.outofyourlife.com/"><b>Out of My Life</b></a><br />
This website allows you to sell (or buy) engagement and wedding jewelry that is not being used any longer. They claim that you can get cash for your jewelry within 24 hours.<br />
<br />
<b><a href="https://www.neverlikeditanyway.com/about-us/">Never Liked It Anyway</a></b><br />
Have you had a relationship for a couple of years and have broken up and don't know what to do with all the gifts or stuff left over? You should visit this site. They claim that this website is "<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">A place to sell the breakup baggage cluttering your life… and mind! </span></span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">A place to fund your bounceback plan." At this site, not only can you sell your old relationship stuff but you can tell your story.</span><br />

<a href="https://www.openbiome.org/">OpenBiome</a> is a non-profit service that accepts donations of fecal matter since 2013. Donors can make over $10,000 a year and save lives at the same time. Can you believe that? But there's a catch, you have to be really healthy to become a donor, so there is a screening process you must go through. Visit the website for more information.<br />
<br />

<br />
I'm always telling people to follow their passion, to do what they love to do . . . even if they can only do it for 15 minutes out of the day. Even if they aren't being compensated for their efforts. What matters, what makes your entire life better is the knowledge that you spent at least <b><i>some time</i></b> in your day on something that YOU love doing.<br />
<br />
Now I have found a way that you can follow your passion and do what you love to do and get compensated for it! Isn't that wonderful?<br />
<br />
Do you know about Micro-Jobs? <br />
<br />
Do you realize that many people who are considered "unemployed" today are actually managing financially by working mini- or micro-jobs? The Internet calls them <i>micro-jobs</i> which are one-time/short-term jobs or tasks that may take one hour, one day, one week and payment is usually in cash or by Paypal.<br />
<br />
They have a sense of freedom. You set your own schedule, determine your rate, choose the tasks you'd like to work and the people you'd like to meet. And the good part about this is there are dozens upon dozens of websites that allow you to list yourself and your talents for small amounts of money to do the things you love. But, here is the kick, as you develop a following by doing your passion you develop devoted clients. People who are willing to give you more and more money to keep doing what you do.<br />
<br />
Believe it or not, there are people making a <i><b>living</b></i> (paying rent and buying food) working on online micro-gigs. I have a friend who started doing quick tasks (micro-jobs) for side money and realized (once she did the math) she could make <i>more </i>money and control her schedule if she did her micro-jobbing full time.<br />
<br />
<b>What are micro-jobs exactly? </b>These jobs are really short tasks that can be done in a small amount of time, usually under 8 hours. You can do these jobs online, at home, in someone's residence or in a business location. What type of jobs will you find? Here's a list:<br />
<br />
<br />

<b>How do you get paid . . .</b>Usually, these platforms will pay you through direct deposit to your bank account or Paypal. If you don't have a bank account, then you should definitely register for a Paypal account (although Paypal does require a bank account after awhile). Most people don't realize that about 20% of Americans don't have a bank account and this can get in the way of working micro-jobs within the current system. A Micro-Job Worker can get around the absence of a bank account by using Digital Wallets and Prepaid/Debit Card Accounts. I will talk about these types of accounts in a future post (stay tuned, I will connect the post here within this article when it is posted.)<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>How do people get micro-jobs? </b><br />
<br />
To start working micro-jobs it is very simple . . . NOT EASY, but simple. And each micro-job platform has tweaks and hacks that you must learn to make it more lucrative for you under each system. I intend to outline some of these hacks (advanced tips to make you more successful for each system) on future posts, so stay tuned. Save this post because I will update it with detailed information on how to be successful on each platform. However, the first thing you should do is <i>register</i>! <br />
<br />
Go to the list below and start registering to begin. That's your first step to gaining additional money starting today.<br />
<br />
<b>The Micro-Job Systems (where to Register)</b>:<br />
<br />
<b><a href="https://track.fiverr.com/visit/?bta=52903&nci=5929" target="_blank">Fiverr </a></b><br />
This is the most popular online marketplace for creative freelancers, they are well known for graphic designers creating logos, digital marketers setting up Facebook business page, writing a post for a blog, recording a 30-second voiceover, taking photos for an Instagram page, etc. There is so much more that you can do. Check it out.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.taskrabbit.com/s/4jl5s/try?utm_source=trycode" target="_blank"><b>TaskRabbit </b></a><br />
The most popular "real world" micro-job site. They have thousands of people registered and it promotes that it "connects you to safe and reliable help in your neighborhood". To register with TaskRabbit you must have a credit card and pay for a background check ($25). You need to do this because you may we working in someone's business office, or putting furniture together in someone's home, carrying important papers from one location to another or help set up a party at a local venue. They have to feel that you are reliable and responsible. To be a tasker, you will need a bank account, a credit card, and a smartphone. Sorry, but those are the requirements.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: blue;"><a href="https://www.fancyhands.com/job/apply/" target="_blank">Fancy Hands</a></span></b><br />
Could you make a great assistant? Do you know how to send professional emails? Can you order things from a store to be delivered to your client's home? Do you know how to cancel subscriptions? Do you know how to find and reserve services like a dog walker? Have you ever disputed credit card charges? Have you ever sent your bosses wife flowers? Do you know how to schedule doctor's appointments? Can you proofread an article? Do you know how to make travel arrangement for a business team? If you know how to do any of these things like this, you could make money as a Fancy Hands worker. The cool part about working for them is it's very flexible and you can work these jobs around family obligations. [Note: They have to sign in through your Facebook or Google account so you have to have one of these to sign up.]<br />
<br />
<b><a href="http://www.mturk.com/worker/" target="_blank">Amazon Mechanical Turk</a></b><br />
This list very small (micro) tasks that you can do really quickly. For your efforts, you can make anywhere for .01cent to $3.00. Very simple tasks that have to do with programming, data mining, data processing, data verification, classifying information, etc.<br />
<br />
<b><a href="http://www.smartcrowd.com/about/workers" target="_blank">Smart Crowd</a> [added 4/4/19]</b><br />
They provide mostly data entry and translation/transcription work for big companies such as Google, Porsche, and Microsoft. It is free to sign up, you have to provide personal details to complete your profile and then do several online skill assessments. The only complaint I've hard about this site is that your hourly earnings will be below minimum wage (to increase your hourly wage you have work really fast and amazingly accurately). Also, competition among freelancers is fierce, you can go days without getting an assignment to do. But don't let that intimidate you, you gain more work and better jobs as you successfully complete tasks and projects given.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.upwork.com/signup/?dest=home" target="_blank"><b>Upwork</b></a><br />
They specialize in freelance work on a more technical level. Some of the tasks are under the categories of Web, Mobile & Software Development, IT Networking, Data Science & Analytics, Design & Creative Jobs, Writing and Translation Jobs and Legal Tasks as well.<br />

<b>Micro-Working Tip: </b></div>
<div>
It's important to note, the success of working micro-jobs is being registered at more than ONE site so that if one site has a slow period (with no work for you), you may be able to find work on another site to fill in the gaps.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
(Come Back for Updates)</div>
These are the sites that are rated and listed as the most legitimate sites for work. I am still researching additional ones and will update the post as I find more reputable sites to register and make money with. Stay tuned.<br />

<br />
<br />
Last year, I took my family to Cuba. It was great! We had a wonderful tour guide. We stayed in a posh AirBNB with an amazing view of the seawall and a panoramic view of the sea. The people were beautiful, kind, talented and intelligent. But what made the trip even more spectacular was the Airbnb Experiences that we signed up for.<br />
<br />
What are <i>Airbnb Experiences</i>? It's classes, tours, and activities that traveler's signed up for that connect them with locals that provide new and different experiences outside the usual tourist hotspots. It's great, it's amazing, and it allows the locals to make money doing the thing that they love, the places only they know about, and the activities they were going to do anyway.<br />
<br />
A good example of this. I signed my young adult children with an experienced called: <b><i>Visit Cuba's Nightlife with Local Cubans</i></b>. So basically, two Cuban women around the age of my children (early 20s) take people on a tour to 2-3 local clubs to safely enjoy local Cuban nightlife with people who know the area best. My kids had a blast and they got to know locals that made the experience even better.<br />
<br />
My children's new friends told them that they were saving up to purchase a car and that this was the way they were funding their dream purchase. They knew the best places to go dancing, hear the best music and enjoy fun people . . . why not invite visitors/tourists along? More friends, more fun! It was something they were doing every weekend anyway, why not profit from it?<br />
<br />
When I heard this, instantly a light went on in my head. As you know from my article: <a href="https://telecommutingmillionaire.blogspot.com/2013/01/money-is-everywhere-over-50-ways-to.html">Money is Everywhere</a>, I'm always finding opportunities around me that make money. And here is one that fell into my lap while I was taking a vacation - micro-experiences!<br />
<br />
Earn quick money by <a href="http://www.airbnb.com/x/rosalindw59">offering micro-experiences</a> to travelers and visitors to your hometown on <a href="http://www.airbnb.com/x/rosalindw59">Airbnb</a>!<br />
<br />
As always, I'm going to challenge you, invite you to go to Airbnb and look at the experiences offered and start thinking about how you can create an experience for visitors to your local area.<br />
<br />
Sit down, ask yourself and write down all the things you love doing or know how to do that would create a great experience for someone visiting your area. For example, I live in the San Francisco Bay Area in the East Bay (the area across the bay from San Francisco). The experiences that I come up with would be something like:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Kayak the San Pablo Bay and learn the history of East Bay Ports</li>
<li>Learn how to cook a Soul Food Meal with the "Aunties of Oakland"</li>
<li>Tour the Hidden Collections of Local Bay Area Artists</li>
<li>Tour the Best Street Art in Oakland, California</li>
<li>Glassblowing with a local artist</li>
<li>Taco Tour - the Best Tacos in the East Bay</li>
<li>Attend a recording session with a local rapper</li>
<li>Discover San Francisco's hidden jazz clubs</li>
<li>Discover Silicon Valley's hidden comedy clubs</li>
<li>Learn Hip-Hop Bellydancing in one Day<br /></li>
</ul>
<div>
Notice that the more specific the experience (i.e. Hip-Hop Bellydancing) the more appealing the experience. Try to create something that gives the guests a unique experience that they can't get anywhere else. Part of that uniqueness is <b>you</b> as a host . . . your personality, your knowledge, your energy will make the experience you create unique (never forget that).</div>
<div>
<br />
<br /></div>
<div>
<b><i>How do you create an Airbnb Experience?</i></b></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
1. Create an account at the <a href="http://www.airbnb.com/r/rosalindw59">Airbnb</a> website. After doing that, look at the experiences offered in your local area to give you an idea of what you can offer as an experience.<br /></div>
<div>
2. Go to "<a href="http://www.airbnb.com/x/rosalindw59" target="_blank">Become an Airbnb Experience Host</a>" and read all the requirements on creating your experience.<br /></div>
<div>
3. You will need to submit your idea as well a provide photos and details about your experience.<br /></div>
<div>
4. It will then be reviewed to make sure it meets quality standards.<br /></div>
<div>
5. Once approved, you can set your schedule and prices.<br /></div>
<div>
6. Airbnb takes 20% of each booking which covers payment processing (allowing you to accept various kinds of payment like credit cards), insurance and customer service.<br />
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b><i>Let's talk about money. </i></b> </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Let's say you are offering "Learn how to cook a Soul Food Meal with the "Aunties of Oakland". You plan for this to be a two-hour session, one hour for the lesson in preparing the food, the second hour to leisurely eat the food and enjoy the company. You plan to charge $39 per person for the food lesson and $22 for everyone that doesn't want to cook but eat the meal. A family of 5 with 2 cooks would pay about $150.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
$150.00</div>
<div>
$ 30.00 - Airbnb's cut</div>
<div>
$ 40.00 - For Ingredients</div>
<div>
$ 5.00 - Energy, utilities, cleaning</div>
<div>
----------------------------</div>
<div>
$ 75.00 - Profit</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
For two hours of work, you have gained $75.00. If you provide two soul food sessions in one day, you would have made $150.00 profit in one day. If you have more than 5 people per session, you would make even more.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This is an excellent way to take what you already love doing and getting paid to do it. Here's to your success my friend in making that extra money and stepping closer to financial freedom!</div>
<div>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I had a couple of jobs that I hated, just hated. It was bad. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I hated waking up in the morning, it was <i>that</i> bad. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Whenever I thought of work the day before going to work, I would feel sick. It was THAT bad!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">It wasn't that the work was hard, difficult or un-fulfilling -- it was the environment. Actually, to tell the truth, it was the bosses. I hated them! Which was not like me at all because I <i>like</i> people.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">My family laughs at me because I like people so much, I rarely see their faults. I always have an excuse for them or I'm really sympathetic of their circumstances. I find myself explaining to my family <i><b>why</b></i> that person does what they do, or way they are the way they are. And I'm afraid that I obnoxiously point that out at every turn.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">But these two bosses were different, I could not <b><i>stand</i></b> them. Everything they did irritated me. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I found them irrational, emotional, always picking at at little things and letting big things fall apart. The things they <i>should </i>have been concerned about they would just brush off. They where demanding in ridiculous ways, wanting the impossible <i>not</i> from themselves, but from everyone around them. But what was most frustrating, was their obvious fear of their "power." Basically, they were unsure of their power and tried to hide behind others. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">This fear manifested into forcing their "stuff" (insecurity, worry, paranoia, trust issues) onto <i>their employees (mainly me)</i> to manage. While at the same time, of course, their employee's life, problems or emotions couldn't and shouldn't interfere with work. To top it all off, they would threaten your job and would get really upset if <i>an employee </i>threatened to voluntarily leave.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">They played this perverse game of <i>not</i> communicating their expectations but never apologizing when the outcomes of their actions showed evidence of this fault. Inconsiderate of people's time, appointments and meetings schedules, especially when they clearly don't like the person. Promise things to people and then drop the duty of fulfilling the promise onto <i>an employee (usually me) </i>to complete it. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">All these things were really getting to me, making me hate my life.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Eventually, I had enough of this abusive life and quit. These types of bosses seem to never actually fire anyone. I guess the "threat" of termination is where the power is. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">In any case, it took me <i><b>years</b></i> after these incidents to understand that I went through this "trial by fire" to show me what I don't want. Let me explain.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Today, I am lead over a marketing and communication department of a small organization in my community as well as CEO of my own communications company. At this point in life, I am considering and actually hiring people to work for me and now <b>I'm conscious of what type of boss I will am</b>.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">In helping people gain wealth, open businesses and employee people, I realize that the most successful of them have a clear idea of several things and can easily answer these questions:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><b>1. What type of boss do I want my people to consider me to be? </b><br /><br />Do I want people to think of me as fair? Do I want my employees to "like" me? Do I want my employees to think I have their best interest at heart? Do I want them to respect me? Do I want them to fear me? Do I want them to be loyal to me? Do I want them to think I'm intelligent? Hard-working? Professional?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><b>2. What type of atmosphere do I want for my office, my organization?</b><br /><br />Do I want a "fun" office atmosphere where everyone is always smiling and being creative?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Do I want a "quiet" office atmosphere where everyone is focused? Do I want a laid-back environment or a conservative environment? Will the office be noisy? Busy? Somber? Will it be colorful or tastefully conservative? Will there be plants all around? Will it be open concept or will people have offices? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><b>3. In my ideal dreams, what would my organization "look like" or "be like"?</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Will it be big or small? </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Will it be structured traditionally with me at the top with a corner office and everyone subordinate to me? Will it be team-driven where titles mean nothing and projects are the prime focus? Will it be diverse? Will it represent the community it is in? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">These questions really matter. It not only matters toward your success, because seriously, if you can envision it, then you can DO it! It matters toward your<b> LIFE</b> and the <b>LIFE</b> of the people that will be around you. Let's face it, the bosses I hated were not getting "the best" out of their employees and truly dampened their potential. This was all because these bosses could not look inward and deal with their issues, so their issues leaked out in their work. Working with them was simply a waste of energy and a waste of time. And frankly, it just opened the door for other organizations to swoop up good employees (yes, I'm a GREAT employee, if I do say so myself) and help skyrocket these other company's success, gains and efforts by doing so.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">I am truly grateful for my "bad boss" experiences. It puts me in check for my next grand moves in hiring, supervising and succeeding with <b>my employees</b>. But the key to my success will be . . . the work I did <b><i>BEFORE</i></b> the employees came on board. Answering the three questions above and looking in that mirror of life asking myself "What kind of boss will I be?"</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Look in the mirror. What kind of boss will <b><i>you</i></b> be?</span><br />

<br />
<br />
There are so many stories of how people <b><i>lose</i></b> their winnings when they have a windfall, such as winning the lottery. Here is a simple way to keep your windfall working <b><i>FOR</i></b> you for years! <br />
<br />
It's really simple. Ready?<br />
<br />
Let's say you've won the lottery. Let's imagine the smallest win in California which is $7 million.<br />
<br />
If you take the cash value of that win, you can say goodbye to 50% of the winnings. So, you actually get a lump sum of $3.5 million. Oh but wait, you have to pay your taxes! If you consider Federal and State Taxes subtract 40%.<br />
<br />
So, take your $3.5 million x .40 = $1,400,000. Now $3,500,000 - $1,400,000 = <b><u>$2,100,000</u></b><br />
<br />
<br />
So, ultimately you will receive a check for $2,100,000 (they actually wire it to your account, but I digress). Now let's create simple steps to make your life better for the rest of your life.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Step 1. </b> Hire a tax advisor, financial advisor and attorney. It's very important that you do this first because these guys can help you avoid taxes & fees and keep people who will try to take your money (troublemakers) away from your winnings. This should cost you no more than $25,000 initially (warning: if they want more than that, find another advisor)<br />
($25,000)<br />
<br />
<b>Step 2</b>. Get rid of debt. Most U.S. Citizens have no more than $100,000 in debt. Let's just say for this exercise you have $100,000 in debt.<br />
($100,000)<br />
<br />
<b>Step 3</b>. Charity brings good karma and is a great tax deduction, so take 10% of your winnings and give to charity.<br />
($210,000)<br />
<br />
<b>Step 4</b>. Play time! What good is winning anything if you don't take some of that money and play with it. You have permission to spend (some) of your winnings on frivolous things you've always wanted. Take 10% and play, play, play<br />
($210,000)<br />
<br />
<b>Step 5</b>. Now take the rest of your winnings and put it in a safe investment yielding <u>at least</u> 6% per annum. Your financial advisor will be able to tell you were you can find investments that will yield 6-10% in interest SAFELY. For this exercise we'll calculate with a conservative 6%, your financial advisor may be able to help you gain a higher yield.<br />
<br />
You have $2,100,000 (cash winnings) - $545,000 (Steps 1-4) = $1,555,000<br />
<br />
So, $1,555,000 x .06% = $93,300 per year. <br />
<br />
If you keep this cash winnings in this investment, never touch that $1,555,000 million and leave it in that account <u>you will receive at minimum</u> $93,300 per year. This is your yearly salary, without working a 9-5 job, automatically. With no debt, could you live on $93,300 a year? <br />
<br />
I don't know about you, but I sure can! <br />
<br />
And as long as you take out $93,000 a year from your account or LESS, you will always be a millionaire. If you decide to take LESS than $93,000 a year . . . say $75,000 a year, you will grow your million into multi-millions within a few years!<br />
<br />
And THAT is how you win the lottery, live well and still have millions YEARS later.<br />
<br />
Now that you have a concrete plan if you win the lottery. Go buy a ticket! And good luck.<br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Music stars, yes, music stars live a very glamorous life right? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">They ride in fancy cars, wear the latest clothes, diamonds, houses, jet planes, champagne . . . all in front of the camera. Yes, it's great.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">But what they don't tell these stars is when the cameras stop recording and they are sitting at home alone, they better break out the Excel Spreadsheets . . . or better yet, the pen and paper and calculator and make sure they have money left over.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Here is the Late Great Lisa "Left-eye" Lopez of the singing group TLC explaining how a group that should over 10,000,000 records in one year (yes, that's 10 million) can be in bankruptcy. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Listen carefully, because all this information can be controlled from the beginning if you work your CONTRACTS correctly (which most people that gain a big wad of money do not do). When someone starts talking to you and mentions money that is in the millions. Time to talk to a lawyer and make sure that lawyer is getting you EVERY ADVANTAGE on that contract. </span><br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
There are a lot of people (more than you are aware) that fall into money. Yes, this can happen to you. You could win the lottery, become famous, become a sports star or win a settlement . . . and of course you could inherit [it can happened!]<br />
<br />
If you are going to have big money, you have to be ready to manage BIG MONEY. The stats show that people that have a "wind fall" (i.e. a lot money gets dropped into laps) are broke within 3-5 years. We are NOT going to have that happen to you.<br />
<br />
Here are some people that know what it's like to have sudden money. Listen to their story and take notes of what they did. You, my dear, are NOT going to be them.<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">It's the end of the year. I hope I've given you motivation to begin living your dreams. If you haven't gotten as far as you wanted to go, don't fret. If you made lots of mistakes this year . . . good for you! At least you got off your butt and did something.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">This is the time to shake off the past. Don't look back now! Keep looking forward. Yesterday is done, can't change it. Today is what you have and where you start. Let's do this!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Happy New Year and Happy New Adventure people!</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">We have to stop focusing on what is going on in our lives right now. All the many problems, </span><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">crisis, what we need, what we don't have, obstacles, etc. The point is, just because you don't have all the pieces to make your dream come true, doesn't mean that you won't discover all the tools you need as you travel down your path. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">In other words, don't let your condition <i><b>today</b></i>, stop you from what you can gain tomorrow. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">If you really want something, go ahead, embark on the journey. Begin. You will be surprised what you will find as you are walking down that path. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">One time, I remember taking a walk with one of my grandmother's good friends who liked to hike in the wilderness. I was a young kid of around 10 or 11. And the old man loved walking the large state parks that surrounded our area, but he was getting to old to be wandering around alone. I thought I was doing this old man a favor, when in fact he was doing me the favor. He was teaching me how life worked . . . simply by walking with me. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">He had decided that we would walk the path on Wild Cat Canyon. The area was named well, for there were sightings every now and then of big wildcats in that area during bad weather events such as drought. As we started our walk and entered the thicker trees, he stopped for a moment finding a long piece of wood about 2 inches thick and as tall as he was. He told me to keep a look out for a piece of wood about my height. A few steps further and we found one to fit me. I remember listening to the birds and the thunk, thunk, thunk that his staff made as he walked. I soon used my staff to make harmonizing beats . . . thunk, thunk, thunk. While he quietly talked and we walked, I noticed that he would stop and bend down every now and then and pick up smooth, heavy rocks and put them in his pocket. Soon we came to a stream and he told me the best way to find streams, to always find pathways along streams when hiking, how to gather water, what to look for in streams for clean water, how to hold and clean water if you don't have fire to sterilize it and many more things about finding water in the wilderness. We came across some berries that birds were joyfully eating and he told me how to know when these types of berries were good to eat and proceeded to tell me about roots that are also eatable. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">As we walked, I realized the lesson I was learning. We started the path with absolutely <b>nothing </b>that would be helpful along this journey. Identification cards, money, and communication devices are not helpful in the middle of a state park. What one needs on THIS PATH is . . . . (1) A WALKING STICK, which has many uses. It can help you walk when you get tired or if you injure yourself during the walk. You can use it to make noise as you walk to warn animals of your arrival and allow them time to clear a path (thunk, thunk, thunk). Or, it can be used as a defense mechanism in case you meet up with an aggressive beast (non-human or human). (2) STONES, another defense mechanism but this one can be used as a long-range defense system. If we had met up with an actual wildcat or other aggressive creature, a good throw of a stone could save your life. (3) WATER, if you become lost or injured you will need water, a person can live without food but they can not live without water. Water is necessary for survival. (4) FOOD or survival and energy. Pick the wrong thing to eat and you can poison yourself. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Notice, that we had none of those things at the beginning of our journey, but we found all those things <b>along</b> our journey. This is how life works. You rarely begin a journey with all the resources you need. The most efficient journeys use resources along the way. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">In essence, being prepared is <b>not</b> the same has having everything you think you need for the journey. Being prepared is knowing what you need to finish the job. My friend knew that if we were going to walk safely through Wild Cat Canyon, we would need a walking stick, some heavy stones, water and a source of food (if we were gonna walk longer than a day). He was prepared, because he knew <b>WHAT TO LOOK FOR ALONG THE PATH</b>. Most people think you are prepared if you are holding everything you need and will not start the journey unless they have packed everything. What most people think is what stops us from reaching our goals.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">You will find what you need on the <b>path</b> to your destination. You just have to be aware of what you need before embarking on our journey so you recognize the tool/resource when you see it. Now that you know the secret . . . begin your journey today!</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">On December 5th we mark the one year anniversary of Mandela's death. The year slipped away so quickly didn't it? Next year, in 2015, it will slip away even more quickly. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">If you are not making the steps to begin making the life of your dreams come true -- you should beginning this today. It's not impossible. Your dream, your goal is NOT IMPOSSIBLE. You can do this.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Get it done and show the impossible wrong.</span><br />
