			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="left"> <strong>Linda Carol Berry</strong></p>
<p align="left">When I was a kid, I wish someone had pulled me aside and said:” Hey Look Kid! You are gonna breakup with a lot of guys.  Get real good at it!”  In the development of my heart and social skills, the writing on my walls was telling me that if I was a good enough woman, he would stay.  A simple shift of thinking to: “You know what?  People break up a few times before they find the right one.” would have saved me a load of drama!</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> I view my business as an essential element in my achieving financial freedom. I am not with the same company I started with 12 years ago.  I sometimes encounter prospective team mates and prospective business partners who have this writing on their walls: “These things don’t work!”</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It is like a mantra, as I speak to them, screaming through their thoughts.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">To these otherwise strong candidates for success, I offer theses thoughts:</p>
<ul>
<li class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="color:purple;">You are going the find some companies that disappoint      you.</span></strong></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="color:purple;">You may find some companies that you disappoint.</span></strong></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="color:purple;"> Don’t expect to figure out a lifetime choice in      one move.</span></strong></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="color:purple;">“You know, people break up a few times before they      find the right one” </span></strong></li>
</ul>
<p class="MsoNormal">Your due diligence includes these realities:</p>
<ol>
<li class="MsoNormal">I<strong><span style="color:#993366;">f you are living month to month and have no savings      plan, you will work well past your legal retirement age and live in low      mid, to low quality circumstances.</span></strong></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="color:#993366;">If achieving financial freedom is a strong      commitment for you, you are already exploring several high income online      options. The turnkey business opportunity is on your list of possibilities.      You are a savvy entrepreneur is search of the right fit.</span></strong></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="color:#993366;">A critical element of the plan to achieve financial      freedom is a habit of paying yourself first. This money comes off the top,      and is yours TO KEEP.</span></strong></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="color:#993366;">A logical and proven means to having money for      personal investment and achieving financial freedom, is a home based      business venture.</span></strong></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="color:#993366;">You can see yourself making a fortune in a company      where people are making fortunes.</span></strong></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="color:#993366;">You are willing to begin.</span></strong></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="color:#993366;">You are eager to learn</span></strong></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="color:#993366;">You  see your success as an current      event. </span></strong></li>
</ol>
<p class="MsoNormal">I encourage you to consider that the right fit is waiting for you.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Is it worth it to live a life I choose? Absolutely! The journey is worth it.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Achieving financial freedom will allow you to do things that have seemed impossible.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> I encourage you to answer these questions honestly:</p>
<ul>
<li class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="color:#993366;">What will you do when money is not the barrier?</span></strong></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="color:#993366;">What are you doing today to achieve financial      freedom?</span></strong></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="color:#993366;">What will happen if you continue as you are?</span></strong></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><strong><span style="color:#993366;">What is to keep you from making a fortune in a      company where people just like you are making fortunes? </span></strong></li>
</ul>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:0.25in;"><strong><span style="color:gray;">Are you willing to accept that reality that you may stumble and that you may break-up?</span></strong><span style="color:gray;"> </span><br />
<!--[if !supportLineBreakNewLine]--><br />
<!--[endif]--></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:0.5in;">With achieving financial freedom in your sights, remember:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:0.75in;text-indent:-0.25in;"><strong><span style="color:gray;">              You are gonna break up some. Get good at it</span></strong><strong><span style="color:gray;"><br />
<strong>        You can save yourself a whole lot of drama.</strong></span></strong><strong><span style="font-size:7pt;color:gray;font-weight:normal;"> </span></strong><span style="font-size:7pt;color:gray;"><br />
</span><strong><span style="color:gray;">        Find a </span></strong><strong><span style="color:gray;">Mentor</span></strong><strong><span style="color:gray;"> and watch them closely.</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="color:gray;">        Nothing feels quite like being able to make a difference </span></strong><strong><span style="color:gray;"><br />
<!--[if !supportLineBreakNewLine]--><br />
<!--[endif]--></span></strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> If these things resonate strongly with you, I certainly want to talk to you! If you are getting the same tingle of excitement I am getting, contemplating achieving financial freedom, and opening the avenue to my dreams…then I would like to introduce you to my company! It is a wonderful company, and it is my most direct route toward achieving financial freedom.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;" align="center">You are what your focus upon.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;" align="center">Shift your focus toward achieving financial freedom.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;" align="center">You will not be able to help moving in the direction of achieving financial freedom.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span></span>Defining financial freedom is an engaging project. If you ask 10 different people, they will give you ten different answers. To those who would answer like me, it means, <em>not having to limit your range because of money.</em> The money thing is worked out. I do not have to give any thought to whether there will be money available. Money is managed.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">&nbsp;</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">&nbsp;</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">What I just now worked out is that people reach <strong>financial freedom</strong> <em>BECAUSE</em> they paid close attention to the movement of there money in the past. They nurtured growth in their money. They had a plan that they implemented and it worked.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Duh! <span> </span>Where have I hear about this? ……”If you fail to plan, then you plan to fail”.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">&nbsp;</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">People, as a breed, are very interesting. Among the interesting, I am one of the not too bright. Many are faster on the uptake…They are <strong>currently</strong> achieving financial freedom.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">&nbsp;</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">After a decade of financial “BATMAN RIDE” I now see the value of a Plan that involves achieving financial freedom.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">&nbsp;</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span>This is actually a two step breakthrough, gang!</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li class="MsoNormal">“Duh“      One &#8211; I am actually admitting that financial planning by the seat of my      pants is keeping me owing and sleepless.</li>
<li class="MsoNormal">“Duh” Two      – As long as I am planning, I can plan for wealth. With the proper      strategy, achieving financial freedom is well within my abilities. I’m      seeing that persons with multiple small and steady income streams are      driving nicer cars, and ordering lobster. My consciousness makes the      smallest shift <em>from</em> that <strong><em>big      hit</em></strong> I’m chronically on the verge of…. Interesting….another      article.</li>
</ul>
<p class="MsoNormal">&nbsp;</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">So here’s the Plan –</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">&nbsp;</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">&nbsp;</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">These are the ten things that form the outline of my plan. I believe that for myself, and the other veterans of “Batman Ride” finances, these ten things are essential for my achieving financial freedom.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">&nbsp;</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Some readers are skeptical about their own ability to work a profitable business.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In the home-based entrepreneurship industry there are many established, proven companies that have made millionaires.<span>  </span>They are populated by individuals who have their sights on achieving financial freedom. These are some of the most inspiring people you will ever come across. They have been through things, and conquered illnesses, and stuck it out through the hard times, and now have wealth with which to accomplish blessings for others. They can buy homes for people and toys for kids, and sponsor scholarships, and provide plane fares for parents of traveling ill children.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="center">They can make a difference. Think of the <em>difference</em> you could make.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">&nbsp;</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">They planned! They boldly, confidently, made achieving financial freedom their target. Now they are enabled to have lives with abundance to contribute.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" align="center">Money is managed!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal">Are you one of the many people struggling to make the money last as long as the month. As a society, we have become a” have now, pay later&#8221; breed, and that practice is eroding our financial health. The majority of the population is facing a drastic drop in lifestyle when they can no longer work. Retirement preparations are inadequate to non-existent for many. We have been told to pay ourselves first, let our assets buy our doodads, and have enough money in the bank to see us through several months of unemployment. For most, that advice is just noise.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">For those of us who have the grit, the home-based business industry, is the solution. It is the key to achieving financial freedom. I work a turnkey business opportunity. It is a high income, online business and anywhere I have a cell phone and a laptop, I am able to produce income. Why did I phrase it, “for those of us who have the grit”?<span>  </span>Because when you make the decision to pursue a turnkey business opportunity as a means of achieving financial freedom, people come out of the woodwork to tell you there is no such thing as a “high income online business.” It seems that every one has an opinion, and all of those opinions are low. Good for them! They are not the five per centers! Only the top five percent will follow the formula for achieving financial freedom!</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> The home-based business industry produces more millionaires than any other.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">People with strong desire and a serious work ethic are achieving financial freedom everyday with legitimate, turnkey business opportunities. High income, online businesses are available and they work for the people who work them earnestly.</p>

<p>There is a formula for achieving financial freedom. Yet, we seem to believe that achieving financial freedom is somehow reserved for an elite group that does not include us.  Resistance chatter including “There has never been any money in my family” and &#8220;Things like that don&#8217;t work for me&#8221; interfere with our seeing that achieving financial freedom is possible for everyone!</p>
<p>For those whose commitment to achieving financial freedom is anchored in passion, actually achieving financial freedom is a  accomplished with ease.</p>
<p>Ask yourself  “Do I Have What It Takes?”  As you answer, consider:</p>
<p>1. Achieving financial freedom will enable me to:__________(fill in)</p>
<p>When you are passionate about why you are accomplishing something, you effortlessly get the job done. The droning sameness of everyday routine has a tendency to choke off the  passion. If you are foggy about your areas of passion, I encourage you to play the &#8220;What would I do if I knew I could not fail?&#8221; game. Have fun with it! Quiet the voices that say, &#8220;Impossible&#8221; before your imagination   unfolds. Remove the barriers. Where does your heart take you? I guarantee you, when  you remove the limiting thoughts, something makes your eyes dance!</p>
<p>2. I am prepared to work hard to make that happen.</p>
<p>Roll up your shirtsleeves and get to work and don’t whine. Put the caliber of effort into your business that will make you sleep well, appreciate your down time, and take pride in what you have done.</p>
<p>3.  I am open to possibilities unforeseen. I am willing to learn</p>
<p>Know that your whole world may take a turn! These are dynamic times – particularly the world of internet marketing. Soak up the new stuff! (You may achieve Billions instead of Millions!)</p>
<p>4.   I am able to follow the example of my mentors– I am coachable.</p>
<p>Find an example to follow. Study their steps. Learn from them. Watch them closely. Mastermind with them. Coach with them. Share ideas with them. Mentors will assist you tremendously in achieving financial freedom. It is their purpose to assist others.</p>
<p>5.  I have courage and stamina and patience. I trust the process.</p>
<p>Achieving financial freedom is enabling in a variety of ways, and certainly allows you freedoms in many areas of your life that scarcity prohibits. The important thing to remember is that achieving financial freedom is a process. It happens over time. During that time, you absolutely have the choice to participate in the joy of the journey! Your patience is stretched and strengthened, and your courage is called upon many times. For those who choose to be aware, it is an exciting time of growth and accomplishment. I encourage you to focus consistently upon the abundance that is yours. Appreciate riches that are not financial. They are priceless.</p>
<p>Remember, if you are clear and passionate about what you want, if you work hard and are adaptable and eager to learn, if you follow the example of a mentor, and if you find joy in small advances while keeping your eye on the target, you absolutely DO have what it takes to achieve financial freedom.</p>
<p>For those with a commitment to achieve the financial freedom that allows them to truly live a life of <em>purpose</em>, opportunities appear. What was once impossible, is now their reality.</p>
<p>I know there are readers who are, at this moment, considering the launch of a free enterprise venture. There is much to sort through and it is a decision to make carefully. What I hope to communicate to you is my confidence that you already have all it takes.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;" align="center">Achieving financial freedom is a function of time for you now.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center;" align="center"> Go for it!</p>
