Greetings Good People,

Today we are discussing a very important topic, expectations. They are critical to consider because then tend to lead your life. People with low expectations usually reach them. While people with high expectations are typically enhanced by doing so.

Isn’t it about time that you started to have high expectations of yourself, your work, your business, your life, your family? Sure it is!

Higher expectations lead to better performance.

What do you think?

Greetings Blog Family,

Let’s get  down to business as we have a lot to get done in the coming week. January 31 is just around the corner and there is no time to play if we are going to stay on course with our goals and get it done.

Last Week

Last week was a good week. I wasn’t able to complete all of my goals for a number of reasons. The main one being that I didn’t complete the goals. No excuses. The reality is my appraisal work really picked up. I guess the reduction of the interest rates have sparked a mad rush by home owners to refinance their existing loans and lock in these low rates. This has lead to an increase in appraisal orders I have received taking away from my time to build my Internet empire.

I got the major stuff completed like posting a site for sale and loading four more sites to ready for launch. An exciting piece of news is that I am parting with two different people to create one site with each. This is a great experience working with someone to complete a site flip. Both are excellent people and have design skills and savvy. It is their first flips, so I get to share this revenue stream with them.

EasyOrganicHealth.com sold for $227 last week, so that puts me on my way to reaching my goal of making $1,000 this month from site flipping. That was great because I was worried about that niche, but it worked out well for me. I have 5 more sites that are ready to go up for auction or near completion, so I am definitely going to make a run at this goal. But let’s get into goals for the coming week.

This Week

This week is more of the same, BIG GOALS, BOLD ACTION! I have to keep moving if I am going to make my January 2009 goals a reality. These are the most important goals of the year because your end of the year goals are based on us hitting these early ones. Let’s get it!

1) Site Flips - $1,000 in January is my overarching goal for flipping and I am on my way to making that a reality. TheObamaMethod.com is currently on the market for sale. The BIN price is $497, but there are no bids as of today. We will see what happens. Here are my goals to make my January $1,000 a reality.

a – Write 15 articles – This may sound like a lot, but I have been blasting out articles for these site flips. Writing these lasts 15 will complete the next 6 sites I have for sale as far as the articles go. That is going to be great.

b – Tweak sites – There are 6 sites in total that are coming to the market for sale and they all need to be tweaked with color scheme, logos, and the rest to make them ready for sale.

c – Post 4 sites for sale – Sounds like a lot, but last week I started 4 sites to sold, while I had 2 a little further along in the development, so this has left me set for the coming week to dominate. Just got to push through all of my critics and reasons to turn back…and flat out get it done. Let’s go!

d – Transfer site – I have to transfer the EasyOrganicHealth.com to the buyer. He paid promptly, so I need to return the favor. Besides, I want to continue to build on my reputation as someone that does business the right way.

2) Invest With Passion website – I have work to do on this niche, real estate investment website. The time has come to really continue pushing this site. It is too much potential to not dominate.

a – Write 3 Blurbs for newsletter – IWP is launching it’s news letter to subscribers, so I have to fill the next three with a little bit of appraisal knowledge. My partners are contributing information as well to make it well rounded. They are from the realtor, investor, mortgage lending side of the business. They are awesome people, so this is going to be great.

b – Post Articles through June 2009 – I have a mountain of material to pour into this site and schedule the articles for 3 post per week. The issue is I would like for the titles to be key-worded to attract traffic to the website, so it is going to  take me some time to research for each post. However, it is important enough to make it happen. Let’s get it!

3) Niche sites – Growing my niche site revenue is important to me this month as well as I want to get off to a great start. My goal for the 1st Quarter of 2009 is to have 10 niche sites earning a total of $15/day. What I didn’t notice was that I already have 8 niche sites. Therefore, I don’t need to be dreaming about what sites I need next, I must focus on making these sites as effective as possible. Therefore, I made a bold action last night.

a – Watch Garry’s Video – Last night, I purchased Garry Conn’s video on Niche blogging. I think Garry is a great guy and I have learned a lot from him on his free site, so I thought he would really get behind his work and put out something special, so I jumped on it. 

Well, I bought the video, but didn’t watch it yet. I will. I got to get this passive income stream crackin!

b – Write 10 articles – That is right! I am writing more articles. I have these niche sites, but they don’t really have a lot of content on them, so I need to pull out my WordTracker account, find the monster keywords, and get to writing. This can be done with a little focus. Let’s get it done!

4) Post 3 to 4 times on FT.com - I have been neglecting this site a little bit, but want to turn the volume back up and share what I am learning in the process of growing with my Blog Family. This is why I started this site to share my experiences with you as I shed the garments of my offline business and embrace my Internet business mastery on a full time basis. 

Let’s get it crackin!

The time has come Blog Family to put down the pencil paper, the dreaming and thinking in favor of ACTION! Our dreams are not going to fall into our lap, but let’s do the best to ensure that they walk into our lives by becoming the people that are deserving of them. I wish you nothing but the best.

First in the Mind, then in Reality!

“We must be diligent today. To wait until tomorrow is too late. Death comes unexpectedly. How can we bargain with it?”
- The Buddha

Greetings Blog Family,

My problem isn’t with planning, action, or skill. I think it is more of an arrogant outlook that I will eventually be successful. Not sure why I think this way, but it is just true. I think if I am involved in something, then I am going to come out on top. That confidence has been with me my whole life. My wife says it is because my parents spoiled me rotten and it gave me a complex. Maybe, but I know that I am going to come out on top. Let’s just say that I am confident.

Here is the thing. I am so confident that i don’t have any real urgency or motivation to hurry the process along. For instance, I am a blogger/internet marketer/guy trying to make a living on line/you fill it in. I am going to succeed. I just know it. It is just inevitable. It is going to happen.

I am not saying that I am entitled, should be granted this or anything. I will do what ever is necessary to succeed. I will read, learn skills, practice, study, watch, analyze, plan, and stay up all hours of the night putting in my time to succeed. Despite the work requirement, I will get it done. I have that confidence in myself that I can do it.

Personally, I wish everyone had this confidence, but this outlook leads me to at times just coast and go with the flow. Taking the journey of life and just flowing along. There is no urgency to succeed right away.

I guess this is called enjoying the journey to success. They say afterall that it is the journey that is the best part. This line of thinking is probably true, but no truer than the fact that death cannot be bargined with and it tends to come unexpectedly.

Not to get to morbit on you, but this is just the truth and that one reminder that puts my arrogance in it’s place. Our time to actualize our dreams is not infinate.  In fact, we don’t know how much time we have. Today is the only day that we are promised. Let’s be sure to get it done.

First in the Mind, then in Reality!

Greetings Blog Family,

It’s host Freddie Taylor, here at FreddieTaylor.com ready to get at you with another Motivational Moment video.

Today, I want to talk to you about being a self-started, about lighting the flames of motivation and action inside yourself. You may have noticed the last few weeks there hasn’t been any videos here at FreddieTaylor.com.

Did you miss me?

Well, I missed you, but had to do it to make a point.

1) They Might Not Show Up

You cannot depend on other people to come along, motivate you, and get you out of a rut….They might not show up!

Where would that leave you, Blog Family? You will be left out in the cold, left out, and in a vulnerable situation. That is not the place to be.

2) Your Dreams Are Too Important

There is something inside of you that you are trying to express. These expressions manifest themselves as goals and dreams….and they are too important to wait for for someone else to come along to get you fired up. So don’t wait for them!

3) Secret to Success

The secret to success is to build the internal fires of motivation to get yourself going on a day to day basis. This can be done by writing your goals out, keeping them in front of you, reviewing them often, and feeling what it would be like to complete them.

At the end of the day, your dreams are your responsibility. you are the keeper of Goals and Dreams. Don’t rely on others to get you motivated. They might not show up!

First in the Mind, then in Reality!

Greetings Blog Family,

It’s your host Freddie Taylor here at FreddieTaylor.com bringing you another Monday’s Motivational Moment. Today I want to go a step beyond telling you to take action. You have been inundated with people telling you action is critical to your success. Right?

Good because action is critical! However, all action may not lead to the outcome you desite, but their is still no progress without action.

I want to encourage you to not only take action, but to take BOLD ACTION. There are two main reasons for this.

1) Your Dreams are Lofty – Face the fact taht you have high expectations. you have big goals and dreams. If you don’t , pause from reading this post and come back when you do. I want you to go BIG or go home.

These lofty dreams are not going to be accomplished by continuing to take the small safe steps that you have been. Eventually to accomplish your dreams you will need to take BOLD ACTION!

2) Stretch your Comfort Zone – The actions you have taken to get you to this point in your life are not going to get you to that next level. Besides, it is likely that you have grown comfortable with many of these actions and you have grown use to them. The lack of the challenge to really excite you on a day to day basis has you stagnant.

If you stop and think about it, I bet when you where making or felt like you were making the most progress, you were stretching your comfort zone, and challenging yourself with BOLD ACTION!

3) The Universe Responds to BOLD ACTION. – I don’t want to get all mystical on you, Blog Family, but this is just the truth.

When you set a specific course, enter into it with confidence, and BOLD ACTION good things happen. People, resources, and opportunities will come into your life on a regular basis to help you achieve your lofty goals and dreams.

The Universe seems to make a way for the person audacious enough to act BOLDLY. If you don’t believe it, try it or ask highly successful people if BOLD ACTION is required.

BOLD ACTION Blog Family, that is my gift to you today. Inside of you lies all you need to be successful. The key is BOLD ACTION.

This week is your week. This week is the one that you will look back on and thank youfelf for….if you have the audacity to take BOLD ACTION.

Do You?

It’s your host Freddie Taylor here at FreddieTaylor.com reminding you that BOLD ACTIONN is the key to your future and also that Thought Is Possibility…First in the mind, then in Reality!

Go get’em!
