StartUp

I've been a member of Sta.rtup.biz for a little while now. I'd browse the profiles of the many members who reside here and read all the interesting information and expertise each novice and seasoned entrepreneur or small business owner have to offer. I would sometimes consider canceling my membership because I felt I had no idea, product or information that would be of value to any of you. But, I decided to stick around to at least help you celebrate your ventures and successes.

Yet, it really bothered me that I had nothing to offer. I kept on looking at what I didn't know. I harped on what I didn’t understand. I focused on skills or expertise I lacked. I perceived myself as knowing very little and holding no value in the eyes of my fellow members.

The beauty of reflecting... of investing time in oneself... and self-RE-evaluating is that all of this help you to develop a different perception.

While working on my website project and exploring different internet business ventures, I began thinking about all the knowledgeable internet marketers and their techniques. Only just a few days ago one internet marketer discussed with me something called a "squeeze" page. As I listened to the technique he used to gain leads and eventually push his leads to his target product I thought to myself, "Wow! I wish I possessed a service or product that would be invaluable to someone... Something that could motivate them and make a difference in that person’s life... "

I pondered the thought off and on for a few days, and while working on my budget and thinking how blessed I am to be out of debt, it hit me! I do have something invaluable to share with others! I have done what many have not had an opportunity to do! I have freed myself from the grips of debt and have learned how to manage money very well... I'm creating cash flow that will continue to grow even if I face unemployment tomorrow... All because I know about money... wait a minute... Let me add that I've succeeded in achieving this in the MIDST OF ONE OF THE WORSE RECESSIONS WE'VE EVER EXPERIENCED!

I now realize I possess an invaluable tool that even the most educated has either failed to use or miserably mishandled. Let us not forget that it is the so-called educated who has led us into this economic mess in the first place!

I have decided to share with all of you what I've learned from a valuable friend of mine -- who is actually a multimillionaire -- and how this invaluable financial information can assist some of you.

I'm very aware many of you may be well situated in your personal finances. My goal is to capture the audience of those who may not be, or those who are open to learning more.

One of the most important facts I've learned while pursuing the knowledge of understanding money is, "Stop looking at what you don't have, rather look at what you do have. It's what you do have that will create what you don't have!" Not only did this statement apply to me rebuilding my financial house but also to my life's decisions.

I am now in a position to talk my walk as I continue to walk my talk. I'm paving my successful financial road, and I'm going to show you how to pave yours.

Starting next week, I will post weekly lessons on steps to gaining a debt free and fruitful financial future, even during these stressful financial times!

I finally have something important and invaluable to contribute to the members of Sta.rtup.biz!! Finally!

I am so proud that you found something that you feel comfortable with and feel the need to share with all of us, and fact that you are striving to seek the knowledge to move forward in life. Keep your head up and walk into your dream. Remember to put God first in all you do because ALL the glory belongs to Him. I love you and best wishes.

Great!! I applaud you!! I too have felt the same since I joined. I feel as though I have nothing to offer. I know that deep inside, I honsetly have a lot to offer but do not know how to put it into words, or present it so that what I say or do become effective and valuable to the members on this site. I believe that we all have something to offer. We all can learn from each other.

I am glad that you have found your niche. I can only hope that soon I will find mine and start to become really apart. Again, thanks. Kutos to you!!

Wishing you much success,
Sharon Braxton

Hey there Norine!

Great post! It's amazing, all the great things that each and everyone of us has to share. But as you said, so many focus on what they lack, that all the great things are suppressed or buried forever and are never shared with the rest of the world.

Often we are our own worst critic. I read posts, articles or comments, that others have written and sometimes, I feel I still have I a lot of work to do, in terms of sharing what I want to say.

But I have realized that, like everything else in life, as long as you stay focused, are willing to learn and hang in there, as you did, it all comes together in the end.

Much Success Norine,

Anthony McNeil
