Time To Fire Your Sleazy Guru

If you want more out of your daily routine, whether you are an eBayer or not, you’ll find this advice sent to my email by Tiffany Dow very good and useful.

It will help boost your online business.

Tiffany Dow is one of the gurus you should listen to and read her blog. I’m not sure she appreciates being called a GURU, but for the purpose of this quick post, I’d like to confer her the title of GURU,  just to draw your attention to a few of the good people still left in this industry.

If you’ve never heard of her or don’t see her in your radar screen of successful online entrepreneurs, please take another look. You might be missing on a good woman with a higher integrity than most, who today, parade themselves as online marketers, earning thousands of dollars. She is not your average rah rah rah in your face kind of marketer.

She is one of my topmost marketers, a favorite among a handful of other decent people.

Tiffany Dow just recently sent an email about FIRING YOUR GURU. She listed 6 bullet points you should evaluate while pulling the trigger, figuratively speaking.

Since, I don’t like the number 6 that much, I’ve added 3 of my own to her list of what to consider in exercising the option to fire your GURU.

I prefer 8 or 9. Eight and nine are for infinity and prosperity.

Here are my addition to the list: Read more…

Are you aware that it does not really matter what kind of business you choose to do  unless you take the following steps, you’ll end up disappointed.

1. Be Self-disciplined:

Of all the problems that will work against your success is  lack of discipline. No matter what program you buy, if you don’t seat down and force yourself to implement the contents, you’ll surely fail.
The old saying which says that, “if horses were wishes, beggars would ride them” is very true. Online business is NOT a ‘wishful’ thing. It’s an ‘action’ thing. Stop hoping, that somehow a magic wand will appear to make you rich instantly without work.

If a magic wand ever existed, that wand is simply to work your butts off, for what you want. Read more…
