How to fix the hurting middle class: Jobs or opportunities?

  Since the recession the entire world has been hurting. Never since the great depression of the 30’s have we seen so much pain, fear and suffering. There have been a bit of recovery, but those have been at the low end of the scale. A recent study and an article by STEPHEN GANDEL OF TIME MAGAZINE suggested that the middle class has taken the brunt of the recession and is yet to recover. (http://curiouscapitalist.blogs.time.com/2011/07/28/jobs-market-worst-for-middle-class/)
The glory days are over for the middle class when it comes to “posh, high end, office with a view jobs” and it’s about time!  Harsh? I think not.  For too long the middle class has been cruising through life with minimal effort.  They are among the brightest of the world population but they have hardly ever engaged their brains and think outside of the box.  If you are so “bright” and educated why can’t you see that 95% of the population is dead broke upon retirement because they locked into the 40/40/40 rule? Working for 40 hours, for 40 years and retire on 40% of your incomes is a recipe for disaster! Majority of the other 5% of people who are living in abundance and wealth are business owners and a few sports stars and popular celebrities. Why are people in the middle class still looking for a job? A full3 year after the start of the recession.  It time to wake up and smell the coffee! Its time to engage your brain for even once and look at other alternative.  After all was taught early that the human spices were all born with a sense of survival and will mutate to its environment to survive.  Check out the video below on Warren Buffet thoughts on Network Marketing.


  The home base business is the fastest growing industry for logical reason.  It allows you to start your own business with minimum capital out lay, usually starting at around US$50- US$1,500.00. Traditional business cost you a leg and an arm with reoccurring expense that can bankrupt you if you don’t have proper capitalization (which is the major cause of most business folding within 3 years). The home base business also provides you with a first rated management team which you could not afford if you had started your own business. These management team are experienced and have been tried and tested over a period of time and they have developed a system that all is required of you is to lock in. So your already home because you lost your job, stay there and become your own CEO and stop search for jobs. Might I offer a suggestion? OrGano Gold makers of healthy coffee.  Coffee is the most consumed beverage after water and the most traded commodity after oil! 400 billion cups are served daily around the world. It’s consumed multiple times per day, every day in every country. Traditionally coffee has been known to be not healthy. We at OrGano Gold have found a way to make coffee healthy! You don’t have to teach or educate people how to drink coffee; they are already drinking it and are addicted to it. Do you think people would switch to a healthier brand of coffee that taste as good or even better that heir current brand? Do you think people would switch even if they get moderate health benefits? Change your coffee, change your life! Check out the video below on Robert Kiyosaki author of " Rich Dad, Poor Dad" on his take on JOB vs OPPORTUNITIES

The reason is because of the large diaspora of Jamaican that live there. Question: Do you know anyone in South Florida that drink coffee,green tea or hot chocolate at least occasionally?

    Fear is the #1 killer of dreams!

    Fear according to the dictionary is a distressing emotion aroused by impending danger, evil, pain, etc., whether the threat is real or imagined; the feeling or condition of being afraid. We were all born with only two fear according to the experts and that the fear of falling and loud sound. All other fear has being created by our environment that is to say it has been learned. Thus it can be now stated that fear is a state of mind. According to James Allen “That man is the maker of his character, the molder of his life, and the builder of his destiny, he may unerringly prove, if he will WATCH, CONTROL, and ALTER his thought, tracing their effects upon him, upon others and upon his life and circumstance, linking cause and effect by patient practice and investigation.”  In short the human mind is subject to control and direction and thereby the elimination of fear can be attained.  But how does fear end up being the number # killer of dream?
    We have been brought up to go to school, get a good education and get a good job. Education is the key! We feel that if we should strayed away from any one of these principled it’s an unforgivable sin. The education system was set up for us to look jobs! They did not teach us to think business opportunity, have you checked the Forbes richest men in the world list? Only 3 of the top ten have a first degree! The first 2 Carlos “slim” Hallo and Bill gates have none! 95% of people who have a job will end up broke on retirement, so why do we continue to seek job and not business opportunity?  FEAR! Fear of failing, fear of criticism, fear that we are going against conventional wisdom of holding a Job, fear of what people are going to say! There is this saying in Jamaica” People are going to speak about you (be it good or bad) until the day you die” So why worry about what other people are thinking? It’s your life! Why would you have a dream, an idea and not act on it based on fear?  Too many times we allow our dreams, hope aspiration and idea to die with us because of FEAR! I recommend to read this book “As a man thinketh” by James Allen. James will show you that fear can be eliminated by changing your thought. In between time take a look at the video below on Les Brown take on lost opportunity because of fear!

    The evil of negative influence


    Negative influence is the king when it comes to killing one’s dream.  One of the main reasons is because it is not easily detected because it comes through the back door of your subconscious mind and it’s mostly done by family and relatives. Stay away from people who discouraged and depress you, yes included family and relative! I am not saying you should abandon them, just limit the time spend around them because you NEED to protect yourself. The wealthy in society ALWAYS protect them self from negative influences and that why they are wealthy. Henry Ford did not listen to the people who said his dream of make automobile was non sense, neither did the Wright’s brother when they set out to make the first aeroplane! “The person who says it cannot be done should not interrupt the person doing it” this is my all time favourite quote
    ( see Rany Gage view on negative people )




      It is not because your family, relative or friends are evil; their advice can even be interpreted as well –meant words. It’s just that these well-meant words are a result of fear, fear of the unknown, and the what if's. The expert has told us that we are the end result of our five closet friends. The five people who you spend the most time will determine who you are and the major reason is because they are the one who has the most influences you! How many times have you heard the phrase “We are the product of our environment”?   There are people who discourage you willingly, because misery loves company, these are the worst of the lot. These people are the one who you should RUN AWAY from, forget them! These are the people who will discourage you from taking an opportunity then turn around and “borrow” or beg money every single time. While you can forgive people who have well meaning intention there is no forgiveness for this type. Stick to people who think and dream like you, people you can learn and grow from. THROW OUT THE NEGATIVE PEOPLE!

    Are you giving your all?

                I came up with this topic after reading LUKE 21:1-4. The story is about the widow’s mite. Jesus was in the temple watching along with his disciples people coming up to contribute their offering. He noticed some wealthy people coming up to put their offering in the treasury, and then he noticed a poor widow who contributing “two small coins”.  Jesus said to his disciple “Truly I tell you this woman has contributed more than the rest, for those wealthy have put in surplus from their wealth but she has given her all (livelihood)”




                 I find this very instructive as the CEO of my own healthy coffee business. There are times when I am not giving my all to the running of my business. I have made it a point to keep this story at the fore front of my mind. I vow that I will put my all, 100% effort. I will not treat this business as a hobby because I will get what I put in. Hobby treatment means hobby returns. Business and 100% effort will yield maximum returns. It reminds me of one of my up line leader Karl. His favourite saying is “if you treat your business casually you run the chance of ending up a casualty” I know it won’t be easy, in this world of daily sound bite, tweet, email, and facebook, it easy to be side tracked. However always keep the story of the widow’s mite at fore front of you mind and you will be reminded to give you all in the running of your business
    **PS I admire the effort of Jose Ardon who can hardly speak english and with a forth grade education rose to the rank of Crown Diamond Ambassador the highest rank in Organ Gold. Sheer determination and giving his all.

    Don't take that second job!

    Times are hard and the dollar is just not stretching anymore. The bills are mounting. The debt collectors are calling. The first thing that comes to one mind is to find a second Job. Big mistake!
    The first thing that suffers is the family. The family is considered by many as the greatest institution on earth. We are already too busy as it is now, to put additional strain on this blessed institution call family. Here is a simple yet powerful solution. How about you stay home and become your own CEO?
    While home business has been around for ages most people don’t make a decent alternative income. That was until OrGano Gold came into being.  Armed with the world most consumable product after water in its armour of products, OrGano Gold has been shaking up the MLM industry with figure of people making excellent returns on just one of it 7 ways which they pay, retails sales. 




    The secret lies in the fact that coffee is very addictive and has a huge following (400 billion cups are served per day) even though medical expert has always maintain that it’s unhealthy. This and the fact that OrGano Gold has found a way to make this popular addictive beverage healthy! The question that you should now ask is this. Do you think people will switch their coffee to get even some of the health benefits? Of course they will. They are already converting in droves! They have testified that it taste just as good as or better than regular coffee, it makes them feel great and they are even losing weight. OrGano Gold distributors don’t sell coffee in the traditional way of selling. The company package its products in a sample form and all you have to do is hand out samples. Yes, that is it! Hand out sample and let the product do the talking. The result show (it varies differently among individual) Out of every 5 samples handed out 2 person switch their coffee, one person join you in the business of selling coffee, one can’t make up their mind and the other is just not interested. OrGano Gold has 7 different ways that they pay and they pay 5 times per month! This business is the nearest thing to what you call a sure hit. So whether you’re a career mother, career dad or a soccer mom it matters not.  It easy, it’s simple, its coffee!  So don’t go putting additional strain on the family structure just stay home and become you own coffee CEO.


     
     
     
    The tax benefit to be derive from owing your own home based business is AWESOME! You get tax write off after tax write off. Quit simply you pay your taxes after instead of when your in a job you pay it before! Not to mention the amount of deductible you can apply! Watch the video below

    THE POWER OF ONE


    I have been asked many time since the MLM bug bit me, why is it that I am only doing Organo Gold.I told them I am keeping my eyes on the big prize, Organo Gold Diamond Consultant the # 1 lifestyle!
    I must admit this was not the case a couple months ago. I started my MLM career in January 2011 with Organo Gold. My eyes were opened up and I got my reading game back on after parking it for many years. Robert Kiyosaki was a gem with his Rich Dad Poor Dad book along with the cash flow quadrant and the new rules of money series that can be seen on youtube.

     Then I got to reading Think & Grow Rich ( Organo Gold has its own hard over edition along with audio cd) by Napoleon Hill and As a man thinketh by James Allen. Now after such a long absent from the reading game these books had a mega impact on me. So with my new found “knowledge” I dive into 2 other opportunities by the end of February. WRONG MOVE!
    I called my sponsor (who has many years experiencing in MLM) and he was less than impressed. He was like hey Dennis I understand your excitement and I know it is based on your new found knowledge but I think you’re moving too fast and you need to settle down and understand the MLM business. There is a lot of hype out there, your new you have a great company focus on Organo Gold. It was around April at the time and  Organo Gold diamond consultants were in London launching the UK operation. Diamond of the year Joseph Wilson (pastor by training) called me as soon as he came back to Jamaica” hey Dennis what you want to achieved in Organo Gold?” “ I want to be like you, I want it all, diamond consultant and the works!” I replied “I sorry brother you can’t make it the way you’re going about it. Your all over the place, you’re not focus.” Then he went into the story in the bible about serving two masters, I story of which I was quite familiar with. That call did the trick. You ever head the terms figure don’t lie? So true ! I check my figure in my back office and I saw where the minute I stray from prospecting Organo Gold the figure dive down and as soon as I shake off the other MLM the figure went right back up!
    So that the reason why I am only pitching one company.
     When you see me or hear the name Dennis Grant people must say ..there goes the “OG coffee man”. You want coffee? check Dennis Grant. That exactly how I want it to be! Some marketing experts call it branding. I don’t care! What I wish for is ever time you think of coffee, every time your drinking coffee my name will be the first thing that pop in your mind.  I am fully focus and determined, the only thing I see is the million dollar earner diamond ring that I will wear when I become a diamond consultant. I have no plan B, no backup plan, I have burn my bridges, and there is no turning back. Only one way out! The pathway to diamond consultant in organo gold
    ** I found this excellent video sone by Super Star Actor Will Smith
