Can't keep up? That's okay. I've now stopped that energy business to do still another business online. It's free. It's mentoring. It's helping others develop themselves to develop a team or family on line, a team that works together toward a common goal.
It's often said that in order to work with someone there must be the "know, like and trust" element. How do you achieve that online? How to you find people who think like you, have the same goals as you do? How to you get to know them? And then, of course, once you know them, you naturally like them! After a certain time of getting to know and like someone, you come to trust them. It takes "time on task" as we in education like to say. (I can't keep from an aside about that concept for it seems so simple, to simple even to mention: one must take the time to do something before it gets done). Although simple, almost too simple, it seems to be the one thing that we often miss.
Here's a great book called, The Slight Edge, that keynotes this concept. Here's the link to that book on Amazon.com: clxr.us/edge1 "Whoops! There goes another rubber tree plant!" is a wonderful song I sang as a child. It means that the ants can accomplish wonders, one bitty bit at a time.
Well, anyway, if you want to see what I'm working on now here's the link to the free mentoring program -- good for anyone even not interested in doing an on line (or offline) business. It's good for anyone who wants to break out of bad mental habits: clxr.us/mentoring
I was quite skeptical about this FREE mentoring program. I remember listening to one of the many archived recorded conversation where the moderator talked about someone needing a “mental cleanse,” and I thought “out loud,” “O'hah! THAT'S what they are “selling.” I asked my mentor (the one who told me about the program) what was a “mental cleanse. His reply, “Oh, that's where you turn off the TV and radio and stop all the external clutter and join an on line group who reads a book chapter by chapter and discusses the lessons learned each week.”

“Oh,” I said – another test this system passed for me. I am a bit amazed at how cynical I have become to even be unable to believe that something could be free, with good will intended without any returned expected or required. It's disarming! In fact, it works remarkably well. Once I stopped all the external chatter, I was able to focus on directing my life in a direction that I wanted it to go and not just let life happen haphazardly.
So, I'm again changing my focus from promoting deregulated energy to this mentoring program. I think of the former as only a step to get me to this better place.
The Boomer keeps movin' :-)
