Unfortunately most of them are not really paying opportunities. Actually let me clarify, none will be paying off immediately in hard cash, or for the foreseeable future for that matter -  but delayed gratification is the order of the day methinks and I shouldn’t measure everything in $$$s. The learning opportunities are immeasurable when I look at the talented individuals I get to learn from.

Back in my dark and dingy past I wanted paying for everything I did for other people, “what’s in it for me?” I used to think….short sighted to say the least. Not the Earl Nightingale/Nepoleon Hill way, that’s for sure…

Now I like to hope I think somewhat differently, sure I need to buy groceries and pay my rent like the next guy, but I try and structure my deals [opportunities] in such a way that I can provide a service which my client will be ecstatic with, provide me my grocery financing and go tell their network about my service! Better still - I try and aim for equity in the ventures they are trying to grow, so the better I service and the happier my client [who is also providing a service to someone], the more revenue is generated!

This surely is a better model, than my previous one. I think Iget it, by Jove!

Service more people needs i.e. a life of service = more rewards.

In my day job [40hrs/wk] I provide service to one person alone, this nets me a reasonable standard of groceries - [but only because my level of skill/experience means I'm not that easily replaced]

The person I service, combines the fruits of my labour with all the other products my co-workers produce, combines them together into a nice 2hr experience and thus provides millions of people who enjoy that experience with a service. This means that my [one] client has his groceries flown direct in his G550 private jet -if he so wishes.

Basic, when put in black and white aye? So why don’t we all do it? Service as many people in out lives as possible? I am from now on. How cool.

What is the World coming too? Do we need recongnition that badly? I think I’ll wait til I need one….

I might have to get a 2nd job in 2nd life to pay the VodafoneNZ plans though…
