This opportunity is one that thousands of people, if not hundreds of thousands, would pay a LOT of money for, or spend a LOT of time chasing! All of a sudden, one day, it easily fell right into my lap. I have been on a journey of self-improvement and self-discovery for decades, and I had recently been doing live Law of Attraction trainings. I began … [Read more...]

The first Marketing Opportunity that came to me through the Law of Attraction was Mark Victor Hansen, coauthor of the New York Times best-selling "Chicken Soup for the Soul" series of books.

By Maritza Parra

I was doing some research for a client's new listbuilding promotion and I came across Thomas Paine's Entrepreneur's Credo.

Entrepreneur's Credo I do not choose to be a common man, It is my right to be uncommon … if I can, I seek opportunity … not security. I do not wish to be a kept citizen. Humbled and dulled by having the State look after me. I want to … [Read more...]
