  • HBP-00018 – How To Make Money Fast
    Sometimes life comes at you hard. An unforeseen bill appears. Or you fall further behind on financial obligations than you thought.
    When someone asks me "how can I make money fast?"
    I usually answer that you can make money online quickly, in some cases very quickly, but you will need to set wheels in motion.
    In fact, the Insight Blueprints were designed to create new weekly cash flow streams -- online. Often without a website or domain and hosting fees.
    But if you are really in a pinch your best bet for immediate cash may be offline.
    If you need quick cash in a couple of days here are some reliable methods.

  • HBP-00017 – Tina Bonner – An Early Entrepreneur
    Tina Bonner is a rare breed. She started her own business right after graduating college.
    Even as a child Tina was an entrepreneur. As she says:
    "On the weekends, while my friends were playing with Barbie dolls, I put together a snow cone stand and hired 2 other 9 year old employees – one to shave the ice and one to add the flavor -- while I collected the money."
    Her goal is to provide as much value as possible by sharing knowledge, tools, and strategies from her experiences building a sustainable business.

  • HBP-00016 – Entrepreneur vs Freelancer
    An entrepreneur is a person who organizes and operates a business or businesses.
    A freelancer is a person working for different clients at different times rather than being permanently employed by one company.
    Often these words are used interchangeably. But, I believe, it's important to understand the difference.

  • HBP-00015 – Failure As A Resource
    "Most startups fail. Most venture capital startups fail. Most products fail. Failure is a fact of life."
    These are the words of John Danner.
    Professor at Princeton, and the University of California Berkley, and co-author of the book:
    "The Other "F" Word: How Smart Leaders, Teams, and Entrepreneurs Put Failure to Work."
    He refers to failure as a resource. And goes on to say that we need to learn from it instead of blaming.
    "Failure can show you what you don't yet know..." says Danner. "Failure is how you learn."
    Failure is like gravity – pervasive and powerful. Whether you're a leader or team member of a startup, a growing business, or an established enterprise, failure is today's lesson for tomorrow.
    And there is plenty of evidence to support his position.

  • HBP-00014 – Robots Replacing People
    According to "The Rich Employee" by James Altucher the average millionaire in the United States has at least 7 streams of income.
    Another reason for multiple streams of income is that platforms change. Many remember the Google updates that reduced income for many online business owners. Some never recovered from the devastating effect of these updates.
    In the popular book Exponential Organizations, employers are being taught how to outsource work to save up to 30% on resources, taxes, and office space.
    However it's not just people in other countries replacing jobs. We've already seen the DIY cash registers at supermarkets and other big box stores.
    Yes, very convenient for us as consumers. But not so comforting if you are a store employee. Bank of America is in the process of eliminating humans altogether at the drive-through windows.
    Frankly, I miss not having the human teller at the window.
    But that's just the tip of the iceberg:
    According to NBCNews.com there are currently 1.2 million industrial robots working worldwide. That's one robot for every 5,000 people, according to the book Robotic Nation.
    Robots are currently analyzing documents, filling prescriptions, and handling other tasks that were once exclusively done by humans. Apple and Samsung supplier Foxconn has replaced 60,000 factory workers with robots.
    The researchers at the World Economic Forum state by 2020, a grand total of 7.1 million jobs will be lost as a direct result of innovations. Driver-less cars are forecast to make up 75% of all traffic by 2040.
    And back to the present; Former McDonald's chief executive Ed Rensi recently said; "a minimum-wage increase to $15 an hour would make companies consider robot workers".
    According to Rensi: "It's cheaper to buy a $35,000 robotic arm than it is to hire an employee who is inefficient, making $15 an hour bagging French fries."
    Think only blue collar or fast food workers should be concerned?
    An article in The Week, explains how a a team of researchers (a group which includes practicing surgeons) have created a new robot dubbed STAR which can outperform surgeons in the operating room.
    In practice trials the researchers found that STAR’s surgical results “were more consistent and had fewer mistakes” than its human creators.
    Odds are that your job will be heavily impacted, if not disrupted, by technology in the near future.
    Welcome to the age of the Entrepreneur!
    One of the most insightful statistics state that "by the year 2020 - 50% of the workforce will own their own businesses by necessity."
    In other words because they can't find jobs HALF of US workers will be forced into full, or part, time entrepreneurship of some kind.
    So my question to you is "Why Wait?"
    The HomeBusinessProfiles.Com Membership gives you a way to start exploring new income streams right now.
    Having several new streams of income in place will make it much easier to deal with financial changes that could impact you and your family.

  • HBP-00012 – Desiderata
    Desiderata (Latin: "desired things") is a 1927 prose poem by American writer Max Ehrmann. I keep a copy of it close by because the words are inspiring and a good way to start your day.
    Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.
    Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story.
    Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexatious to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter, for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
    Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
    Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism.
    Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is as perennial as the grass.
    Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
    Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
    Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here.
    And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be.
    And whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.
