Boomer Starts New Business

Hello.  I'm writing to share with others what has motivated me to reinvent myself.  I'm a laid-off teacher with a Masters Degree who found herself unemployed.  I also live in a teensy East-Texas town where business is small if non-existent -- also where family and cousins seem to get first choice of all things good in town, most especially jobs.


So, a friend that I hadn't  talked to in a while called me up out of the blue. Well, actually she first called up my ex-husband, who gave her my number.  Anyway, this friend is quite the last person one would expect to be involved in network marketing, so I listened.  I was at a hungry place in my life, a place where I was looking for a way to earn money and still live in rural East Texas, and it made sense.  After giving it a week's careful due diligence and thought, I jumped in with both feet.


It's a business, an opportunity in the energy deregulation business.  If you are interested in being in your own own business, the earning potential is excellent, and you help your customers save money on their utility bills.  Consumers can also get travel rewards and other incentives to switch to Ambit Energy as their electric company.  We are in a moment in our history where there are record numbers of unemployed and others hard hit, who worry about paying their bills.  This business helps with both of those worries.  It's a well-run company with ethical business practices, one that just decided to grow their business (their customer base) by using networking business model.  Here is an excellent article that shows why networking works especially in today's economy.  Here's an article explaining this point:   http://www.wynman.com/kiyos.html 

Work, works!  It's a simple as that.  The business is simple, one that a PhD or a GED can do with ease.  I had the good fortune (as you would if you connected with me in this business :-) to connect with a top achiever who spends most of his time helping train and encourage others to duplicate exactly what he has done.  He's a pro!  

Here's the links of my new business if you would like to check it out:

Oh, I almost forgot:  Value added is a customer signs up to save money on their utility bills.

It's a fun business.  I have my little bluetooth, StraightTalk phone with unlimited minutes for $50/month, lots of leads, and friends and ways to share...and off I go.  Here is the beginning...July 24, 2011.  I'll make sure to log in with updates this time and not wait five years.  Where have I been?  Five years!

Bye for now,

Later, but sooner,

Deb

Boomers Reinventing Themselves

Pushing the outer limits of physical exercise when a senior is having dramatic effects for our newly senior boomers.  There's a excellent book on this subject that I recommend:  Younger Next Year, by Crowley and Lodge.  There's a version for men and another for women.  For those of you who would rather get the quick synopsis, it says one hour of vigorous exercise, six days a week, makes every cell in the body say to every organ in the body, "Hey, I'm not dying, I'm living, growing."  Sedentary life styles, you know the ones our children are living while playing video games inside after school rather than playing baseball and freeze tag outside, is making us age prematurely.  Also, aging is really dying: just a nicer word.  Another book that is a delightful read is what appears to be a children's good, but is NOT:  Who Moved My Cheese?: An Amazing Way to Deal with Change in Your Work and in Your Life by Spencer Johnson and Kenneth Blanchard.  That on is so short, I'll let you read the whole thing.  It's a delightful book with a profound lesson.


Note:  When I went back to this blog, I realized i hadn't posted to it since 2005.  Wow!  Where have I been, and what have I been doing?  Well, that's okay.  I'm back now.


I'll post more often...please feel free to comment and give feedback.
