Few Days

I cracked the Homebased Code for Success

Homebased success codeHello out there Andrew Hawkes here,

I want to let you in on a secret.... I cracked it,  I cracked the homebased business code for success! And the good thing is anyone can do it. Are you ready? Shh.... come a little closer.... here it is 'consistent action, congruent with your vision or why toward the direction of your goal.' That's it. Simple right?

So then if it is so simple why does 95% of the worlds population live week to week and hand to mouth existences. Well I am pretty sure I have worked that out too. I used to think that it was because people were afraid (to a point I still do, just not like before) however now after the last few days working with the very talented Casey Van Liefde and some of the things she shared with me. It is not about being scared, Casey is a very talented Photographer and she really is an entrepreneur, she is happy to look at something at its merit, make a decision about it and then act in total congruency with that decision. This means that Casey has already succeeded here.

So what I came up with and what made me think that it was more than just fear was this, Casey and I had a conversation, we were talking about an opportunity, a very cool opportunity, one that utilises two fortune 500 companies, so companies with a proven track record. For a ridiculously low investment per month (I mean the cost of a cup of coffee each week) they could create a substantial residual monthly income. The catch is that the people that get involved have to actually do some work. I know crazy. Now I have been involved in homebased business for quite a while now and they biggest issue any body had with the opportunity I represented was the investment price.... So here Casey is talking to me about a stupidly low (seriously it should be more for the value you are getting) investment each month, and people are telling her, or rather implying that it was all a bit like hard work. What?

OK, so from that conversation I came to the realisation that people aren't scared... people are just plain lazy, they would rather sit on the couch, drink beer, eat corn chips and stay living in lack than put a little effort in to make a huge difference in their life.

But I guess it is deeper than that right? Yes people are lazy, however there is more. People would rather sit back give direction and say I told you so than get in amongst it themselves, and it comes down to one thing, and this one thing is condoned and even practiced by society. Lack of responsibility. It is far easier (see LAZY) to blame someone else for their shitty existence. As I said though in my post about What is Wrong with the World when the government set such a low barrier, it really is easy to be average, or even below average.

So here in summary, the homebased business code for success is pretty simple, follow it (with out detouring from the prescribed method) and you will have astounding success and that is with anything, homebased business, real estate trading, investing ANYTHING.

So what are you waiting for, stop BEing lazy, get off your a*se, stop blaming others for your short comings and become part of the solution as opposed to the problem.

You are that Powerful, Ignite your passion!

Hello from Sunny Byron Bay

Posted by Andrew    Posted in BLOG, General    Posted in July 10, 2010    |    1 Comments

 It's funny how things work out right? It is almost two years since my wife and I were married here in Byron bay, which is obviously where I am writing this post from, great little cafe called 'Why Not?' We came here the day after our wedding for a breakfast for pretty much everyone who came!

 As well as the great food this place has free wireless internet... which is starting to become more and more common (not like NZ where it is already EVERYWHERE). So here we are, Sarah told me that I was to come away to Byron so that I would unplug and get out of the office, and to be fair I have... (apart from this blog post)

 So why am I posting... two fold really one to let you know I am still alive (cause it has been a few days ;) ) and the other to let you know that some of your biggest break throughs are going to come when you get a total break away from what you are doing... Sometimes you just don't see it becuase you are so invloved in what is your daily routine.

 While I have been here I have had some amazing clarity presented... and as soon as I get back I will be acting on it, all I can say is that there are some very exciting things on the way and 2010 just keeps getting better and better.

 Anyway this was just a short one to say I'm still here, oh and to let you know that this months 'Power Up Monthly' will be a few days late!!  ;)

 Hear from you all soon

The Whole Truth.. and nothing but the Truth

Posted by Andrew    Posted in General, My Rant    Posted in June 9, 2010    |    3 Comments

Today, and the last few days for that matter have been a little funny. I have taken on the titan like might of Telstra, and won a battle (of course the war is far from over) and I have had the pleasure of speaking with a few people who really seem content with 'their lot' in life. Meaning to me that they are willing to 'settle' for less that what they deserve.

It is no secret that I make my living online, I do little internet marketing, I also partake in Network Marketing also (there again, don't we all in someway? Just some of us get paid for it) As a result of what I do I get to talk to a lot of different people all of whom are looking for something more from life (I make this assumption as they contact me through various means, I don't look for them). All of them tell me similar stories. They tell me that they are looking for something more, they want some extra income to be able to enjoy life and be 'happy'. They would sincerely love to work for themselves. And every single one of them tell me that they are willing to do 'what it takes' yet when presented with a golden opportunity to actually do something about where they are in life and really take control.... I would say about 97% of them find some excuse as to why the (given) opportunity would not work, or at least would not work for them. Umm..... Hello? If it works for anyone at all..... it can work for you... the only variable from you and the people that are seemingly having 'results' is.... YOU. That is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

Most people don't like to hear this of course and like even less to admit it. Until this obstacle has been overcome then there is no point looking at anything. PERIOD. There is only ever going to be one person responsible for the outcome of anything in your life... (again) YOU.

I was contacted by a prospective business associate just yesterday asking me to justify or provide proof of something said in an email that was sent to him. Being the busy person that I am, I thought long and hard about what I how I was going to answer his question. It went along the lines of this;

No matter what I tell you here you would not be appeased by the answer. The reason for that is because you are looking for something to be wrong with it.

It is the same reason people jump from opportunity to opportunity or continue to search for that elusive 'silver bullet'. The truth is you can have success with ANY opportunity... you just have to make a decision to actually start one and stick with it!

To Your Success...

Now this of course was not the replay the person was looking for... I do get tired of people feeling I need to justify myself to them especially when it was them who contacted me in the first place.

The truth is you CAN have success with any opportunity, you can have outrageous success. The fact still remains that you MUST make a decision to actually do something and STOP trying to put the power outside your control. If you want to make a change great, make a decision, if you don't... that is great too... just do us all a favour and stick to your day job and stop annoying people who are actually doing what you apparently DREAM of doing.

So there it is, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth Once you understand this then you will be able to accomplish anything!

To Your Success

Posted by Andrew    Posted in Uncategorized    Posted in January 5, 2009    |    No Comments

Hey Guys,
a few days late however here it is, the book of the month.
'Why We Want You To Be Rich' is a great book with some interesting insight for those who care to get through the whole thing, it is not until your past the first four or five chapters that you really start to get some very valuable insight and thoughts.

Donald Trump and Robert Kiyosaki get together on this book to help raise the financial IQ of the readers. If you want growth and some interesting facts about the economy and what may be in store then this is a must read.

Living at the Cause rather than Effect

Posted by Andrew    Posted in Uncategorized    Posted in December 11, 2008    |    1 Comments

Well, its been a few days hasn't it?!

My apologies for this. It is really very sad that there has been no updates in the last week as there has been so many things going on and so many new insights.

We have been to Sydney in the last few days to See John Lavenia, he was there for his Bridging the Gap: Knowledge to Wisdom seminar and also to promote his new Book 'Integrity is Everything', which of course is now available for sale here.

It was of course great to catch up with John and other like minded people, people who are living at the cause, rather than the effect of life.

So really that's what I wanted to touch on with this post.

What does it mean to live at the cause of your circumstances rather than the effect?

In essence it is living with the understanding of why you are where you are in life and whether or not you have the ability, or more accurately the belief that you have the power to change your outcome, any outcome.

I was speaking with someone I consider to be a very good friend yesterday, she is a woman who knows what it takes to succeed. Lets call her Jill.

Yet when I spoke to her yesterday Jill was living at the effect of her circumstances. Meaning that she was letting them get the better of her. At the start of our conversation all Jill could tell me about was everything that was going wrong, and how people didn't understand, and everyone was saying this and that, and like chicken little the sky was falling.

Now having been down a similar path before in life I was not about to stand by and let a Woman who knew to be successful feed me the dribble she was feeding me. We had a great conversation and it was not long before Jill was starting to see the positive in the things she had in her life, like her family, I know they mean the world to her, yet they were over looked as a positive. Again we come back to getting what you focus on. Like energy attracts like energy.

It was not long before I was talking to the Jill that I knew the tenacious victor who does not stop until she has succeeded! And of course that is success, never giving up, obviously the only people who truly fail in life are the ones who quit!

So how does all this tie in I hear you say, well it is very simple, when we live at the cause of our circumstances we can then change them, now I am not saying that just by changing our thought process that things will instantaneously snap to how you think they should be, well actually yes I am. The reason I say this is because change happens in an instant, that is when you DECIDE. Because with the change of thought you allow new possibilities to arise that you would never have seen while you were living in the effect of your circumstances.

I guess another way of looking at it would be when you are living at the cause you are living in the end result, much in the same way you are when you are BEing. You see they all tie in together. And again these are not new principles or philosophies, they have been around since the dawn of time. It is the Human condition that enslaves us to live life at the effect of our circumstances, unfortunately it is only a handful of people that truly understand this and let go and have the faith in the universe to move forward with life and let them have what ever it is that they truly desire. We always get what we ask for, it just may not show up in the package we expect it to. So in there lies a message also, be careful what you wish for, you just may get it.

Now I mentioned Faith in that last sentence, and I just want to touch on the opposite of faith, which of course is FEAR. FEAR is the biggest hindrance to progress in the world, we have all heard the term 'oh once bitten twice shy' and of course for the bulk of the population of this planet, yes the masses, this is exactly how the live, and this is part of the Human condition. Now there are many ANAGRAM for FEAR the one I want to look at however is this, False Evidence Appearing Real. The reason this false evidence will appear real to you is because you hear things from your parents or your best friend or your partner like, 'Oh so and so tried that and it didn't work' and more often than not, it is not that it didn't work, its 99.9% of the time that 'so and so' didn't work. They stopped, or they didn't follow the system. what ever the point is that when there is a proven system that works and someone doesn't have the desired results, its because that someone obviously didn't want it bad enough, or would rather live life at the effect and blame someone else and live below the line. And I guess the biggest reason is because you go looking for why it will fail, again, you get what you focus on. John Lavenia touched on this on a conference call the other day, he said and I quote;

"You never here anyone say, 'Oh that is to bad to be true' only every 'It must be too good to be true'"

It's the human condition, its who we have been brought up to be. We can change it!

Yes I think differently to most, and I am so incredibly thankful for that every day I am a live, and to be honest I am alive because of the fact. If I thought like the masses then given some of my circumstances or when I may have been living at the effect of, I could have happily ended things, and if for nothing else but the fact that I DO think differently I am still here.

So again it all comes down to choices, we all have the choice to live a the cause of our circumstances and live a life by design.

Or

you can live at the effect of our circumstances and continue to blame everybody else for how shitty and miserable your life has become.

Now this quote has been posted here before, however I want you all to read it and really let it sink in, really;


"All that we are, is a result of what we have thought.

The mind is Everything.

What we think, we become".

Buddha

That's about all I have for this post, I do look forward to reading some of your replies, feel free to post them here rather than emailing them to me.



Make it a great night!

Global Financial Crisis

Posted by Andrew    Posted in Uncategorized    Posted in November 26, 2008    |    No Comments

HI all, once again, the title link goes back to 'Movember' so you can still donate there only a few days to go now, and to be fair I am looking forward to having a shave!

Now today the title says Global Financial Crisis, so I really just want to touch on what it means to the masses and what it means to the minority.
For anyone who has read any of Robert Kiosaki''s books you will know that it really doesn't matter what the economy is doing if you mitigate your risk. When Kiosaki talks about mitigating risk he is in fact referring to educating yourself against what could happen.
In plenty of other teachings we know that when we focus on something thing we are going to get it, and if we then add emotion to the mix, then we are going to get it super fast!

So now think of this, the masses listen to the media, they watch TV the News, all the doom and gloom that is happening around the world, ever heard of Chicken Little? I think you get the picture.
Now the reason I bring this observation up is simple. Note that the sentence said 'the masses listen to the media' So they watch, they read, and all of a sudden, where is their attention now directed? On the doom and gloom right? So therefore due to the law of attraction, they get what they focus on, and if we are referring to the 'Global financial crisis' all we are hearing is that people are being laid off, unemployment is rising, retirement funds are shrinking. Note, all of this is bad, negative news. There is nothing good about it, again, if we focus on that, we are destined only to get more of it.
So then if the masses listen to the media, and watch the news and focus on that, what does the minority focus on and do?
Well I have read in more than one piece of literature that Average people watch the news and media, and that's why they have average results.
What the minority do then is fill their mind with empowering information in order for them to prosper even when the markets are down, or the 'global economy' is shaky.
In effect they DO NOT LISTEN TO THE HYPE AND BULLSHIT that the masses do.
I have been privileged enough to have seen a sneak preview of my good friend John Lavenia's book 'Integrity is everything' and I am so excited to say that John nails this right on the head. It is one of the best books I have had the pleasure of reading on the topic of personal development. It is no holds barred and written in very plain easy to understand English. The chances are if you do not get the message or understand what it is about, they you may very well be stuck where you are right not for sometime, you see it takes a different way of thinking to succeed in any climate, and this is what the Minority know. Johns book is due for its first shipping on the 1st of December, you can purchase it here

OK, so you have heard why the 'global financial crisis' does not effect the minority, and in case you missed it, IT IS BECAUSE THEY CHOOSE NOT TO LET IT EFFECT THEM. So then what can you do about it?
Well the first thing is make a choice not to be a Victim and take control of your life. It might not be comfortable, think of it this way tho, whats a bigger price to pay?

The price of failure and living week to week for the rest of your life?
Or
Growing a little now and going through the discomfort for a little time to have anything and everything you want.
I am sorry, this is a no brainer for me. Hence we have set this massive goal to show you it is very possible to make a million in a year, just with the right mindset!

The second thing you want to do is get very clear on what you want out of life, this is not a dress rehearsal, once you have the clarity and laser focus, the rest falls into place. Once you get emotionally involved in what you want to achieve then it will come super quick, the same as with negative thoughts about the lack of money, you are sure to have a lack of money.

It is that simple, and think of this, what sort of people do you hear saying things like; 'If it sounds to good to be true, then it must be'?
If you said the masses you are right, you really don't hear that sort of comment from the people who seemingly have it all, and it because that know beyond doubt that anything is possible, so long as you believe it is.

I am lucky in the sense that I starting thinking differently when I was a lot younger, I always knew that there was a way out there to have anything I wanted, now, as I have stated previously, it has not always been easy or comfortable. That's OK, because 'the juice is worth the squeeze' Through many trials and tribulations I found a business that is economy proof.
Despite all the doom and gloom in the media, world wide, people are still making anywhere from $1,000 to $20,000 a week. Do you think these people are worried about what the media is saying? I think not.

If you would like to know more about the business opportunity I speak of then visit here to find out what it is all about.
I choose to work with about 8 people per month that are serious about making some changes in their lives and who have some big goals and ambitions. Is that you?

Make it a great day, you all most certainly deserve it.

When riches begin to come they come so quickly, in such great
abundance, that one wonders where they have been hiding during all those
lean years.
Napoleon Hill (1883-1970)
