On using the Law of Attraction to Make Money

By M. Thompson

So you have this idea that you can make money in an online business of you own, right? And you may have even tried to make money on the internet but it isn't working for you?
In this article I am going to explain why most people don't make money in their home based business endeavors, discuss how the law of attraction can ensure your success in the future, and finally, give you an overview of a marketing system that works for me and it will work for you if you use it.

First off, the reason most people fail to make money is they are looking for a product or program that allows them to place a few free classified ads with a link to a sales page, walk away and be rich overnight. The chances of that happening are the same as going to a driving range, hitting a bucket of balls, practicing putting for a half hour and then walking out on the PGA tour and winning. It ain't gonna happen.

When they don't get rich overnight in the first program, they go looking for another program and the whole cycle starts all over again. I know that is how it happens because I have done the same thing myself.....more times than I care to remember.

To excel at anything we need to focus on one thing and keep working on that skill set until we become very good at it. Pick one product to sell or one opportunity and work on that business until you become very good at it. Stop switching from one thing to another every week. There are a lot of ways to make money online but there is no such thing as a program "that works" by itself. We have to make it work. And that takes concentrated effort over a lengthy period of time.

So what is this Law of Attraction and how can it help us in our business building pursuits? I look at the Law of Attraction as the science of attracting to us the things we concentrate on. The law of attraction is not something you can turn on or off at will. The principals of attraction are working for us 24 hours a day, even if we are not aware of it. If you think primarily negative thoughts and say sarcastic things, positive people will be repelled away from you and other negative, sarcastic people will be drawn toward you. If you think primarily positive thoughts and you radiate a happy, positive persona, other happy, positive people will be drawn to you and negative people will be pushed away. You don't have to force that, it just happens.
Some people say that you can attract money just by focusing on attracting money, but I would add that you also need to take action to attract what you want to attract by doing the kinds of things and putting yourself in situations that will attract money to you.
So how can we use this Law of Attraction to help us make money online? First, do not aggressively advertise your product or business offer to everyone you run into. That will certainly repel most people away from you.

What do you think most people are looking for? To learn how to make money in a business of their own, from home, in their PJ's, with no boss, etc. We think of that as having enough income to be free to do as we like, right. Yes, that sounds good and I bet a lot of people are interested in learning how to do that. And I submit that you can have that financial freedom, but first you need to learn the skills required to earn that freedom and second, you need to use those skills for a long enough time to get the income flowing and keep the income flowing. Being financially free doesn't necessarily mean you have no boss. It really means that you are your boss and you have to force yourself to go to work each day (at your kitchen table) and do the work required to keep the money flowing. If you don't have that level of commitment you will not be successful in a business of your own.

I know that 98% of the people who began reading this article have already moved on to other, more interesting things. That is fine and as it should be. I am only looking to attract those 2% of the people who are willing to make a commitment (to themselves) and will do the work required, day after day, until they get the income flowing and then keep doing those things (forever) to keep the income flowing. How do I go about attracting those 2% of the people who are committed? I offer everyone a completely free marketing system that does work (if they do) and I never, ever try to sell anything to anyone. Think about it, if you uncle or your cousin or anyone tried to sell you anything, every time you saw them would you be attracted to them or away from them? People are trying to sell us something, every day, all the time. We get so many advertisements thrown at us each day it is incredible. I really don't want anyone else to try to sell me their product or get me to join their program. But, when I was starting out, if I had run into someone who could actually teach me what to do to make money online, with no strings attached, I would have been attracted to them immediately. And, I probably would have asked to buy their product or join their program because they knew what they were doing and they could teach me how to do it too!

That is the essence of attraction marketing. Become the teacher and those people who are committed and interested will be drawn to you.

What are the things we need to do every day to get a business started and keep it growing? Fortunately, online marketing principals are quite well known. You likely have already heard of everything I do (like writing this article). I can teach you the finer points of the techniques, but more importantly, I can teach you how to package your efforts into an Attraction Marketing package that draws a few people toward you each day, rather than chasing most people away.
Here are the marking skills you will need to know, and teach to other people:
Video Marketing is the absolute best medium for attracting people to your website. Did you know that in January of 2009 YouTube had over a billion videos watched? Over a billion! And, did you know that there are a lot of places now where people search for video information, in addition to YouTube? Learning to make videos is a challenge at first, but as with anything else, with a little practice it gets much easier. Every video should have a link to your website where the viewer can get more information.

Article marketing is kind of an old fashioned idea now but I assure you that Article Marketing still works quite well. No, you can't just write one article (or one video, post it on the Internet, and get rich quickly. I try to write one new article every day. Of course some days I can't but I try to. On my website I teach an easy method for coming up with good article ideas and how to also come up with excellent content for your articles. You can use the same method for coming up with ideas for good videos. Again, every article should have a link to your website.

I also recommend that you post answers to questions in online forums with a link to your website for more information. Not just advertisements for your product or opportunity, but real answers to real questions that will compel the reader to visit your web page to get more information. They want to learn, and you are the teacher and they will be Attracted to you to learn more.

And you should be using Social Networking sites (Myspace.com, Facebook.com and Twitter.com) as well as Social Bookmarking sites (Digg.com, Propeller.com, StumbleUpon.com) to post links to your webpage for people who want to learn how to do Internet marketing.

It will take you some time and effort to learn these techniques well enough to teach them to others. But, none of this is rocket science and every technique can be learned fairly easily. practicing each technique will help you perfect each technique and soon you will be an expert.
If you do these kinds of things, each and every day for a long enough period of time, you cannot help but earn a growing income with any product or any business opportunity you choose to offer.

No Fee Work at Home Jobs and the Easy Way to Find Them

I am always surprised that work at home websites can make good money by demanding job seekers pay up front money for no fee work at home job leads. We live in a free economy so, I understand why some sites do it. The fact of the matter is that a lot of effort is needed to go through thousands of job boards and web sites to find no fee work from home jobs.

You probably already know this but the big job sites such as Monster.com and Careerbuilder are not specialized in no fee work from home jobs. The at home jobs listed there are usually mixed in with regular jobs and the thousands of home based business opportunities which tend to require a fee.

It can take two life times just to filter through all the junk to locate just one free work at home job lead. And it will take just as much time to find the next lead. I know what you are thinking he must be a mind reader. As a result, you have found my article.

Trust me I feel your pain and have been to hell and back with that process But I do have a solution for you. When searching big non work at home specialized websites, the first thing you need to know is what keywords to use in the search box.

So let's break down the keywords to avoid. Do not type in the following keywords:

Work At Home
Work From Home
Work At Home Jobs
Work From Home Jobs
Work At Home Job
Work From Home Job
Work At Home Opportunity
Work from Home Opportunity
Work At Home Opportunities
Work From Opportunities

Do you see the pattern here? I know it does not make sense. But the problem is many of the shady people as well as legitimate home based business opportunity providers use these keywords. Obviously you want to avoid the scam artist, there isn't an explanation that needs to be provided for that. Legitimate home based business opportunities are fine but in my experience some of you prefer to be employees rather than owning a business where you could make significantly more money. I'm not knocking you, but the fact of the matter is you are more likely to earn way more money with your own home based business. But I digress. Here are the key words you want to use for your search in the major job sites:

•telecommuting
•telecommute
•telecommuter
•telework
•teleworking
•virtual
•virtual employee
•virtual company
•virtual office
•working virtually
•remote work
•remote contractor
•outsourcing opportunity
•freelance
•freelance jobs
•independent contractor
•off-site

These keywords should filter through the "junk" results. You may want to search using quotation marks around the keywords to refine down the list even further.

Well that's all folks, a simple way to find no fee work at home job at the big job sites. It's a start but personally you may be better off letting other work at home websites do the dirty work for you.

Work At Home No Scams.com already compiles a list of no fee work at home jobs. Be sure to save yourself the headaches and find your work at home jobs now.
