Yes this buniess does require alot of self motivation and determination but it WORKS!!!!!!

I think the chips are definitely stacked against us, but we have people everday on this site, showing and saying what this business has done for them and there family. Im convince it can be done!

miek, Great Post...i'm that same kind of individual. I was always told by my grandparents that the "doubt" will kill you son! lol...any advice on this guys??

Bryan, any advice? cause im one of the people that falls short on this as well. Any way to overcome?

Steve: Awesome! i go through the samething. Im only 20 yrs of age, so imagine me! =) but its ok, like you said when you open your mouth and seem to know what your talking bout people tend to give you a shot. I must admit it worked for me.

Jean, Great post as well!! I guess like everyone has been saying "Persistance" will help get you over the hurdle!

Congrats on taking action though!!!! not to many people do that!!

P.S. as far as those four stages of learningm if were talking about the same guy, let's just say i know him very very well! =)

Morning guys,

I have a question to all my fellow BP members. I could not find the thread for some reason so i figured lets construct a new one.

If you were to rebuild this country. What would you get rid of first to before the reconstruction took place.

Section 8? Welfare? FoodStamps? Give away programs? & why?

What would you keep in regards to the give away programs & why

What new strategies would you implemente?

Would you keep our constituion?

P.S. I had a interesting topic this morning with one of my relatives about "Drug testing people on food stamps" and it sparked an interesting debate, BELIEVE ME!! How do you feel about this?

Im really interested in this topic because i am an investor that is building his business from the goround up, and ii would like to know how does this affect me, my family and my business.

I am also an investor that comes from a low income family (about to change that) so i can understand both sides of th etodem pole.

Thoughts, questions & comments are all welcomed guys!

I don't really want to put the thread in a different direction.

What would you guys do first or if you were in my situation? Business Plan? Market? ect...

How do I create a system for the business?
