Small efforts, big results- how to do this
Small efforts, big results- how to do thisPatric Chan
How can you put in small efforts butget back big returns?
Well, the formula is to use other people’stime, money and effort - or SOMETHINGbecause it’s not limited to only people.
In short, it’s called, “leverage”.
And that IS my secret to wealth. All ofmy m0ney making activities use leverage-otherwise I will be working round theclock and also, it will not generatehuge returns.
There are three ways of making hugeincome which allow you to use leverage.You SHOULD BE USING ANY OF THEM inyour life today and if you’re not, thenyou’re missing out the best part ofcreating wealth.
The first one is real estate.
You can own a $200,000 property withjust $20,000 in your pocket because youcan LEVERAGE on the banks to give youthe fund.
Different countries will have differentm0rtgage loan terms but the point is, youdon’t need to have a lot of m0ney tomake huge income in return from properties.
If you have $3,000 in your hand, then lookfor $30,000 property to invest (Assumingyou can get a 90% m0rgage loan).
The next one is stock trading. But to bemore precise, it’ll be options tradingsimply because you can earn 10 fold inreturn from the profits gained.
Here’s a laymen explanation– assumingyou might own an option that’s worth $0.50.Option’s price will depends on thestock’s price.
Like, there are Intel stocks and alsoIntel options which you can purchase.
If a stock increase from $1.50 to $1.80,you’ll earn 20% profit, which is $0.30per stock. But for options, you don’tearned 20% but it could be 100% or moredepending on the price of the options.
This email is not for the purpose to providecomplete explanations about options tradingbecause it’ll take a book or seminar to teach.
The point is, the result can turn out to bemany times fold by leveraging on options.
The final one will be internet.
To be more precise, building an internetbusiness. The obvious leverage is that you’reable to reach globally which traditionalbusinesses are unable.
A hair saloon can only have clients in itsneighborhood or city. Where else an onlinebusiness selling an ebook about hair careor hair style will have the potential ofreaching prospects all around the world!
This also means that the internet allowsyou to be in business 24 hours a day becausedifferent countries will have differenttime zone.
If that’s interesting enough, let me tellyou another powerful leverage you can getwith an internet business:
To set up a hair salon, you’ll spend tensof thousands. The shop, equipments,advertising and so on. Not only that,imagine months of preparations - renovations,business registration, hiring hair stylist,bank loans, etc.
And to worsen the situation, you mightend up being ’stuck’ in the businessbecause you’re cutting hair or need to bepresent in the shop to greet clients.
An internet business?
You could be up and running in less thana week. Fully operational as little as $20(or less) to get started.
But the thing I like about internet’sleverage is I don’t have to be ‘present’at all. I don’t need to greet prospects orto cut hair. As a mater of fact, I don’teven need to be present to take money!
“What is the best leverage among these 3?”
I don’t think there’s any way to classifywhich is the best because they all of themexcel greatly based on each individual’spreference. For me, I use ALL OF THEM.
But the one that I would ALWAYS suggest tomy subscribers or customers is to leverageon internet business.
The reason is simple - you cannot get ‘burned’financially even if you messed up big time.
For real estate, you’re taking a bank loanas a leverage. If you mess up by buying abad property that cannot be rent or sold ata good price, you’ll still have this huge loanfor you to pay each month- even if you applya ‘no m0ney down’ strategy.
Options trading can be a risk if you don’tknow how to trade wisely. You see, you’re usingmoney to make money and you’re always subjectedto lose your money if done incorrectly.
And if you don’t know what you’re doing,you could end up being in ‘negative’ situationwith options trading.
In options trading, you’re allowed to ’short sell’where you can sell options that you haven’tpurchase yet. By doing that you get to leverageof ‘owning’ the options without any money downbut if your prediction that this will make moneyis incorrect, then you need to BUY the options.
When I start making money on the internet,I’ve also detailed out the steps.
The two ’secrets’ how I do this is to sellinformation products so that I’ll haveridiculously high profit margins and tosell in niche markets with minimal competition.
I like to sum up this- you need to use aleverage to generate massive income. Tradingyour time will never help you to achieve thisgoal unless you’re some sort of a high payingbrain surgeon or something along that line.I’m sure I don’t have that kind of talent.

How To Get Your Business To Run Without You
The only reason why someone starts a business is so that that business can generate income for him while he’s doing other things he likes.And if you don’t have one yet and plan to start, ALWAYS remember this because you definitely don’t want to be “IN” the business. Make sense?
To have your business run without you, there must 2 things you need to accomplish first:
i. Authority Delegation
-As much as you think that no one in this world can do your tasks, you got to start delegating your authority to someone.
ii. Reporting System
-At the same time, you cannot be ignorant and don’t want to know what happened to your delegation. This is where a proper reporting system comes into the picture.
To be frank with you, these are not my ideas- it’s the advice from an entrepreneur who becomes a billionaire (not millionaire).
I’ve just watch the 51-minute video, “How To Get Your Business To Run Without You” in the Billionaire Business System and this is just ONE VIDEO TRAINING out of 30. Talk about getting real value here.
And yes, that video goes into more details about the 2 things I’ve mentioned above.
If you’re a business owner or planning to become one, I highly recommend you to join the membership today…
Click Here To Join
One thing I want to mention… there’s no long webpage to explain the membership. Just watch the 14-minute video and you’ll find out all of the advantages of the membership.
What if you’re an employee and not a business person?
Well, you’ll benefit from it anyway because there are many videos about achievement techniques and besides, EVERY employee needs to think like a business person otherwise, you’re not going to grow.
I can still remember when I was working in a sales job last time, I was reading books how to plan like a CEO.
Here you go…

The One Habit Of All Successful People

There will always be things to learn. Your Ego might kicks in now and said that you know a lot of things but do you really know how much you don’t know?
Who knows, right.
That’s why successful people keep on learning - especially those in business. No matter how many books you have read, seminars you have attended or courses you have taken, they can never teach you everything. But collectively, they bear an impact.
My goal at the end of this article is to get you start learning something, especially if you’re being lazy lying on your comfortable bed.
If you have finished reading a book on personal transformation, go back and read it again. You’d be surprised what new information that you can pick up the second time around. This is because when you go through the book the second time, you have already changed. You have absorbed something the first time, so now, going through it the second time, you are learning from a different point of view.
For instance, just read the book, Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle. At first, you will think you know the content of it after reading the first time but if you read it again, you’ll discover a lot new understandings and concept.
(The Power of Now is a book about achieving spirituality success and happiness.)
Or why some self help gurus read 10 times of Think And Grow Rich - over and over again.
The learning process doesn’t just occur when you’re consciously in the learning mode (like picking up a book to read or attending a seminar). You can pick up a lesson anywhere, anytime.
That’s call, learning about life.
You saw someone behaving her child successfully and you may think, “Hey, that’s an ingenious way to make a child quiet.” Then you bring that home to try it on your kids.
And one more thing– one is never too old to learn.
There’s a saying, you can teach an old dog new tricks. I mean, there is no reason why a 70 year old grandfather can’t discover the joys of playing X-box 360 video game with his grandchildren or a 30-something man can’t learn to ride a bike for the first time.
Same goes with the young ones.
In my Aikido class, there’s a 12-year old kid training with us. I’m sure he can’t fight an adult, but he’s learning - preparing himself to be an expert when his age is ready.
What is more important is that desire to learn. It must be there first so that you can prepare within yourself the correct environment to receive knowledge.
Put it this way, if someone doesn’t want to learn to cook properly, nothing is going to make him go to cooking class or pick up a recipe book – even if all of those are given for free.
You’ve read this far but I’m not convince that I’ve done my part to create the awareness that you need to take up the habit of all successful people – to keep on learning every day.
Here’s the thing– I don’t have anything to lose. The ball’s on your court. The stronger your desire to learn, the richer you’ll become. I’m not going to spend any more time convincing you because it’ll just make today’s blog post boring.
Just remember this… without your desire to learn every day, not only that you won’t get richer but you’ll also be missing out a lot of joy in life.
Feel a little bit more pressure now? Good.
If you like what you read, it’ll be cool if you can leave a Comment as well. I’ll definitely appreciate it very much because I read every single Comment posted here personally.

5 Free Internet Business Resources

I've located three valuable online business resources that you can use for free and two free courses. :-)
Google Analytics
Urchin was bought over by Google for millions of dollars and renamed as Google Analytics. The best part is, it's now available for free as long as you have a Google account! This service is a website traffic tracking and analyzing software and it's extremely easy to use. Just copy and paste code.One of my favourite features is the keyword report that tells me what are the keywords used by the internet surfer to find my site from the search engine.As far as I know, Urchin used to charge $100 - $200 to websites for these kind of stats tracking service but you can get it for free at www.google.com/analytics.
Free Google Adwords Training
If you have no clue what's Google Adwords, it's a type of pay-per-click advertising managed by Google. Full explanation of it at www.google.com/adwords. Are you having difficulty learning how to effectively use Google Adwords to advertise your internet business?Forget throwing away your hard-earned money to buy basic Adwords courses because Google's giving free tutorial at:www.google.com/adwords/learningcenter/index.htmlAdwords courses like this can be sold between $50 to $100 easily.
Google Website Optimizer
Have you heard of spilt testing? It's a term marketers use when they are testing between two variation of marketing pieces. By doing spilt test, you'll be able to know which variation will perform better and thus, increase your site's conversion. Google has spent millions of dollars to bring you, Google Website Optimizer – their own testing tool which you can use for free.

The Internet Business Map Video
Nitro Marketing created a video recently to explain why having a 'biz map' for your Internet business is vitally important. In the video, it'll show you the actual map of a real-life $25,000 per month business-- which I would say it's pretty cool to see a real life case study for free.If you're serious about having a successful business, then this will make it much more likely you will succeed with less time, effort, hassle and problems than if you just "winged it" simply because you can see more clearly how it will look and how you will get there. Clarity is a very good thing in business.Go to http://internetsuccessmap.com/
Bypass Third Parties To Hire Freelance Writers
Where do you get freelance writers? From sites like elance.com, guru.com, etc. The problem is, you'll need to pay a fee to these third party websites for coordinating the process. For months, I've been hiring freelance authors directly and I'm going to show you where you can get at least 100 freelance authors for you to choose. This resource has never been revealed to anyone else except to my coaching clients and I hope you'll appreciate it. By revealing this resource, it's kind of disadvantage to me because if you're hiring the same freelance writer I'm currently using, then he might end up being too busy to write my stuff in the future.
If you were to contact any of them, I would appreciate if you can put a note in your email that Patric Chan of SundayEmail.com shares this resource with you. :-) Ready? Go to http://ideamarketers.com/ghostwriters-all.cfm
There you go... 5 useful resources for your online business. This is not a Sunday Email but I'll always ask for your favor to leave a Comment if you find value of what you've gained today. It'll be most appreciated because I read all of them personally. :-)

Develop a Prosperity Consciousness - Article by Brian Tracy

The starting point of all riches is the development of a prosperity consciousness. You must become a financial success in your thinking long before you achieve it in your reality. Both poverty and riches are the result of a state of mind, and the most important single step you ever take on the road to wealth and financial independence is the decision to change your thinking, to impress into your mind an unshakable belief that you can and will achieve your financial goals. This must happen before anything else happens.When I was growing up, I was fascinated by stories of successful men and women and how they made and lost their fortunes, and then made them over again. I read about the importance of a prosperity consciousness in the book, Think And Grow Rich, by Napoleon Hill, several times. But I never fully understood what it meant until about five years ago. Then it hit me and I've never been quite the same since. Every aspect of my life has improved dramatically, especially in the area of accumulating wealth, since I finally understood what it meant by a prosperity consciousness.Here are two of the most exciting principles ever discovered in the long search by mankind for the secrets of health, happiness and great personal wealth.
The first principle is this. All causation is mental. All causation is mental. That means that everything that you are or ever will be will be as a result of how you use your mind. You are merely a mind with a body to carry it around with. The entire man made world that you see is simply an expression of thought. Your entire life is an expression of your own thinking. And since the quality of your thinking determines the quality of your life, if you improve the quality of your thinking, you must, you will, inevitably improve the quality of your life.The second principle is what we call the law of expectations. This law says that whatever you expect with confidence, positive or negative, becomes your reality. If you confidently expect to succeed, if you confidently expect to learn something from every experience, if you confidently expect to become wealthy as a result of applying your talents and abilities to your opportunities and you maintain that attitude of confident expectations long enough, it will become your reality. It will give you a positive optimistic cheerful attitude that will cause people to want to help you, and will cause things to happen the way you want them to happen.Here are two things you can do immediately to practice these principles in your day to day life:
First Step Start thinking today in a positive, optimistic, confident way about personal and financial success. Continually imagine what differences it would make in your life if you were financially independent. This is the starting point of developing a prosperity consciousness.
Second StepDevelop your own attitude of positive expectations. Look for the good in every situation. Look for the valuable lesson in every setback or difficulty. Be positive and cheerful about everything that happens and you will be amazed at the difference it makes in your life.
