This week's episode is not a puffed-up pep talk (although there may be some motivational side effects). When I say THIS is your time to become an entrepreneur, I mean it…And I have 7 great reasons that back it up.

Not only can you start a business that actually prospers during recession, but you can do so for less than a $100 investment.

How should entrepreneurs view economic recession? Is it “brace for impact”, or “full speed ahead”?

My guest this week is Tim Schurrer, author of The Secret Society of Success. First of all, I must admit that when I saw that title, I was a little leery…Secret society?

I'd like to preface this by acknowledging that America is not officially in a recession and that things may not get as bad as some of the typical sources of gloom and doom would have us believe.

If you have a goal of building a successful online business, I know of no better way to quickly build a reputable, memorable, brand, than by writing a book.

Last week I shared the story of how I recently received a $150,000 advance from a publisher for an upcoming book. Furthermore, I suggested that you can do the same…If you have the right idea and follow the right process.

Is it possible to get $150,000 check for a book that has yet to be written? Absolutely. I know this because that's exactly what I experienced thanks to my friend, and this week's guest, Jeff Goins.

There is no shortage of fuel for negative thinking, and none of us are immune to it. The good news is that you can minimize your negative thinking by making a conscious decision to control the one thing you should always be in control of: your attitude.

Last week I promised to share with you, 9 income streams for copywriters. In the interest of overdelivering, this week I present to you…11 income streams for copywriters.

Oh sure, the copywriting guy thinks that copywriting is the best side hustle ever…What a surprise, right?

Perhaps you are someone who would be described as successful by the people who know you. If that success is in business, maybe your world is filled with luxury accommodations, gourmet meals, and exotic vacations. If you're a successful parent, perhaps one of your children is now attending Stanford and you have another that's heading off to Harvard next fall.

This week's episode is definitely a departure from my regular content, but it's an important message that I wanted to share.

If you've listened to me for very long, you know that I believe your thoughts, as in the things you think about from day to day, determine pretty much everything in your life: Your relationships with family and friends, your business success, even your relationship with God.

Last week, I claimed it's possible to change everything, break free, and live. This week, I'm welcoming someone who exemplifies that message – My friend, Anna Powers.

It seems that millions of people were previously too busy to notice that they weren't satisfied with their life…Specifically, the way they make their living.
