If you’ve been part of the Tribe Syndication Association (TSA), you already know that we like to help others and share what we have learned.  Luckily for all of us, Dave likes to EXPAND what he’s learned before he shares it so he  can help even more people.  As you probably heard already, we were taught to create a tribe of five people for syndication.  Are there only five people in TSA?  Absolutely NOT!  There are many multiples of five people and it’s growing daily!  A tribe of over 130 people is amazingly more beneficial to all than a tribe of five.  We are all enjoying the fruits of Dave’s ambitions for TSA and he doesn’t quit thinking about ways to provide more value to YOU through TSA!

Now as Dave will often say, it’s the members of the TSA family that make it the great opportunity that it is and it’s the TSA family that deserves all the credit!   I agree wholeheartedly with that statement, but I know though that something has to be created before anything else can happen, right? So I am grateful to Dave for his ability and willingness to think outside of the box!  As a matter of fact, last night he was mentioning something else that he’s thinking about implementing to get all of you even more exposure! I know you all appreciate Dave like I do from all the fabulous comments you continually send our way.  On behalf of Dave and myself, Thank YOU!

Now back to the subject of this post!

Edward was in search of something better, but sometimes the solution isn’t right in front of our faces all the time. In order to find them you need to search, search and search some more…

Edward now feels that he is on the right path and heading in the direction where his life was meant to go. Over the past several months we have seen him grow and many others from their involvement in TSA and by just hanging around other people looking for the same solutions.

Changing the Future... by Working Together...

As they say, “You become like the 5 people who you socialize with most.” Like Edward and ourselves, we found these people after a long search and it has helped us greatly.

Now we’d like you to hear Edward’s story and you can do that by going to TribeDomination.com You may very well be inspired by him, just like we have been.

Self development is so important because we can’t achieve a level of success that exceeds our level of self development.  We love to have masterminded with Edward Elliott, Matthew Neer and Gavin Mountford since each is on the same path of self development as we are and we learn so much from them.

Make your personal self development a top priority and learn from those you are on the same path, like Edward Elliott. Go and watch his video and learn the secret that has worked for him.  It may be part of the solution you are looking for.

Thank you Edward for sharing your story!  TribeDomination.com

Are You A Social Media Prostitute?

Social media when used properly is about building relationships and not about instant money. I’m sure all of you see it time and time again, but maybe you don’t realize that you may be doing similar things. Selling your reputation for a quick sale in social media will be your demise in the future. Just like a prostitute, many people on the internet are looking for the quick buck! For those who use this approach, the money will come from time to time, but in the end, do you really think these people can hold their heads high? Building integrity should be first and foremost and then the monetary rewards will come in the end.

Unfortunately too many people using social media don’t understand these basic concepts. Everyone is looking for that Winning Lotto Ticket and will do almost anything to hit those winning numbers. Social Media is not a sprint. It’s a marathon! Building relationships for the future should be our focus and not about some small instant gratification today.

Now what do I mean when I say “Are You A Social Media Prostitute?” Let’s take a look at it from a funny comedian’s perspective to keep it lite and humorous. As Jeff Foxworthy might say:

Do you add friends on Facebook and then immediately pitch them on your business? Then you might be a Social Media Prostitute!

Do you upload videos on the internet mainly about your opportunity? Then you might be a Social Media Prostitute!

While building your relationships on the internet, you’re thinking how can I sell this person! Then you might be a Social Media Prostitute!

If you have more than two posts on your blog about your business and give links to your biz site. Then you might be a Social Media Prostitute!

When you post a Tweet that redirects them for a way to make you money, then you might be a Social Media Prostitute!

Dawn and I see this all the time and most of us don’t like it when it’s done to us PERIOD. We know how a lot of people feel out there. Times are tough and we see all this potential to make money because we have all these friends We are probably in the top 10% for the most friends and followers on the internet, but Dawn and I don’t use this social media spamming approach to make money. Don’t get me wrong. I would love to make a lot of money right now, but social media spamming isn’t going to make this happen. Your reputation and the way you treat others in life is what should come first and foremost! I struggle with this every day myself and want that winning lotto ticket, but I am not going to become a Social Media Prostitute in order to achieve it!

Do me a favor and leave me your thoughts on this post. Am I on target or should we cave in and become a Social Media Prostitute like over 90% of the rest of the people on the net?

Committed To Your Success!

Before we continue, we have to give full credit to Malcolm Gladwell and his book The Outliers – The Story of Success. This post is based on a portion of what we’ve learned from Gladwell.

We’re sure that you’ll agree with Gladwell that Bill Gates is an Outlier. The term “outlier” is a scientific phenomenon that lies outside normal everyday experience. Individuals who are so successful that their story demands a more complete explanation are “outliers” .

Now let’s list some of the opportunities that came Gates way that he took full advantage of:

1. His parents were well off. So when Gates was bored in public school his parents could afford to put him in a private school called Lakeside.

2. The moms of the Lakeside students chose to spend their annual rummage sale proceeds on the school’s first computer terminal (this state of the art computer terminal allowed for real time programming using time sharing) in 1968. In fact, this opportunity was so monumental because Lakeside was the only non-university school to have a terminal computer which was linked to a mainframe in Seattle. Gates found his love of computers and programming when he first sat down in front of the terminal.

3. Lakeside moms to the rescue again. They could pay for the expensive computer user fees to allow students, mainly Gates, to use the terminal for countless hours.

4. As young as an eighth grader, Gates could do real-time programming rather than using the very slow punch-card programming.

5. Gates could spend all his time in the computer lab. By high school, he was able to program eight hours a day seven days a week.

6. At Washington University, he could program for free for hours during the night when the mainframe was not scheduled for any other use.

7. By the end of college, Gates had already spent more than 10,000 hours programming. Below we’ll explain how Malcolm Gladwell performed research to determine that 10,000 hours is the minimum required to master any skill.

8. Gates was born on 10-28-55. Now you may be how your date of birth can be an opportunity. Well, the January 1975 issue of Popular Electronics was the first publication about the very first personal computer kit. So in reality, this was the very beginning of the personal computer industry. According to Gladwell, the best age to be to take advantage of this opportunity was 20 to 21 years of age. Backing up, that means those born in 1954 and 1955 were the perfect age in January 1975.

We were amazed to learn that Bill Gates was lucky in many ways and without some of these great opportunities, he may not be the richest man in the world. We do know that Gates did work very hard to make these opportunities work like everyone must. Gladwell, through the example of Bill Gates and many others, has shown us that taking advantage of opportunities is just as important, or more so, as innate talent to achieve success. In fact, innate talent is not required.

Of all the opportunities that Gates had, Gladwell focused highly on the need for 10,000 hours of practice to guarantee success in any area of skill. One of the success stories he studied to prove his point was about The Beatles, and we’d like to briefly explain how The Beatles, by chance, had accumulated 10,000 hours of practice before they arrived in America for their hugely successful British Invasion. Where did The Beatles have the chance to put in 10,000 hours? It was when they were sent to Hamburg, Germany in early 1960 where they had to play for seven days per week for eight hours per day for nearly a year. So they were not overnight successes. They were incredibly successful because they had put in their 10,000 hours.

So how can we apply this new knowledge to ourselves and our desires to succeed? Well, for starters, we can know that success is not limited to the few individuals who have innate talent. It is available to all of us who look for and take advantage of opportunities.

Second, we all have 10,000 during which we can prepare for our ultimate success by practicing the particular skills that our opportunity requires. Many of us are already well on our way to hitting our 10,000 hours so we just keep doing what we’re doing because we know that time is on our side. Success is not a get-rich quick scheme. 

Success is a 10,000 hour journey during which we take full advantage of every opportunity we find.

Are you going to be the next Bill Gates in your endeavor? You certainly can!!
