The following is a guest post by Penne Ard…

Sending a Shout-out to Ryan for inviting me to be a regular contributor to Cash With A True Conscience. I’m honored to be part of the Cash Gifting Crew, and happy to share my thoughts on abundance with this beautiful, savvy audience. Please feel free to leave feedback and insights in the comment section below. Always glad to hear from like-minded spirits!

You are now coming to understand that there is abundance for you, and it is not your job to work out “how” the money will come to you.  It is your job to ask, to believe you are receiving, and feel happy now. Leave the details to the Universe on how it will bring it about. [The Secret Daily Calendar]

One of the most interesting things I’ve observed over the years as a homeschooling mom is the way my kids think.  They come up with math problems, out of the blue, and work them out in their heads in a completely different way than I’d ever seen taught in a textbook.  They view politics and religion with a whole ‘nother lens, neither conservative nor liberal, but more often than not, completely out of the box.  Simply fascinating to watch the wheels turn, and because they’ve had time to sit & ponder without being prompted to move on to the next subject, classroom, or extracurricular activity for their “enrichment,” we (parents & siblings alike) have been privy to the secrets of learning in freedom.

Buried secrets
The mine knows naught of the emeralds within its rocks; the sea is ignorant of the gems within its caverns, of the corals, of its sharp reefs, of the tall ships that float on its bosom, or of the bodies which lie buried in its sands: yet these are all there. Do not suppose that any mental concept is gone because you do not think of it. The true concept is never lost. [Mary Baker Eddy, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures]

Another strategy that has come about quite naturally with the kids is creating lists of their interests, and one-by-one, each dream begins to unfold — some within hours of putting pen to paper.  We use an interest-based curriculum, which integrates all of the core subjects into pursuits that attract their attention.  With this approach, the kids are free to explore a given interest in-depth until they have fully satiated their appetites for knowledge in that field of study, and seamlessly move on to the next thing, which may or may not seem related.  They have honed their ability to dream and focus their energies in certain directions, and the results have been simply marvelous to behold!  And so the student becomes the master.

Gems Among Coal

Dig, dig deep
For in your heart this lesson keep
Out of the cracks the glimmer will creep
Then you’ll know this treasure is not cheap

Though the mine is dark and the air is thick
You must search hard with your pick
Let not the dust to your eyes stick
And block your vision like a wall of brick

Too common is this blackened coal
Found just about in any hole
Keeping you in such a low role
For it’s devoid of compassion and has no soul

Yet among such rocks are precious stones
Some are square, some are round, and others in cones
But this isn’t how they stand apart from the drones
It’s their brilliant light that warms your bones

Yes, these gems are special indeed
And it is for them we have the greatest need
Though they are humble of roots and low of breed
It is hope and love of which they’re the seed

So when next you see a cliff or bluff
Know that though their rocks are tough
If you indeed look hard enough
You will find the diamonds in the rough.

Wow, this one could take up a day’s worth of posting! So many people are desperate to make the shift from worker to cash gifting coach, or from employee to entrepreneur, but heck, this lot is doomed already. I will clue you in; 1 keyword kills this crowd, or their intended shift, fast. 1 word in that sentence makes the shift impossible because once you start feeling a certain way you are guaranteed to fail

The 1 Word

Desperate. There you go. If you feel desperate you are afraid, and if your fears dominate your mind, you will fail to make the shift. You will likely never quit your job, or start a part time home business gig, or if you start a part time home business gig, or cash gifting club, you will operate from a place of desperation or fear, which kills your chances at succeeding online. Is making the shift easy? Well, yes, but oh BOY does making the shift feel like, well, shit, at times, because you are forced to be uncomfortable.

How can you make the shift? Spend 30, 60 or 90 or more minutes daily working on your mindset. You might say, YEAH I KNOW THAT, but if you have failed for 1 week, month, year, or longer, then NO you do NOT KNOW THIS, and you are mentally lazy, rarely taking time to work on your mental tools.

You will have not made the shift from employee to entrepreneur because:

you never do smart stuff

you refuse to move into effective action

you cower from uncomfortable situations or situations, mired in the old, comfortable, order-taking mindset of an employee

Yes, you can be an employee and love it. But this post is for people who hate working for someone else. I mean, I just spent 2 weeks in Peru, and am lining up more trips to fun and sun, and I can do this because I am an entrepreneur WITH an entrepreneur’s mindset who moves into entrepreneurial action each hour of each day.

I Bust My Tail

I bust my tail, mentally, to do this stuff. It does NOT come easy to me because I had to sit through hour’s worth of uncomfortable, harrowing moments, as I faced my most powerful mental blocks, and because of this I succeed. Yes, I run a prospering cash gifting team because I made the shift from employee to entrepreneur. Yes I rock out my home business and ghost writing ventures because I, naturally, busted my old, employee line of thinking up with serious personal development.

This shift happens so damn fast if you are willing to immerse yourself in personal development and move into effective, goal-driven acts on a daily basis. Do this, you are golden. Ignore this, you struggle forever. Your life never changes until you make your life change.

You never succeed until you are being the person you always dreamed you would be, and I mean, being that person each hour of each day.

I know you are in!

Time management does not exist. Choice management exists. If you choose wisely you use time wisely. Do not get caught up in all sorts of time management strategies. Remember 1 thing; effective acts count.

Right now I can be opening 4 social networking accounts to respond to requests, engagements, etc, for 10 minutes or I can write 1 lead generating cash gifting blog post. I chose to write the blog post because I know making this decision is smart use of time.

I logged into my WordPress backoffice and started to write. If I was foolish, I would spend 10 minutes – or longer – responding to social requests. Foolish use of time, first thing in the morning, because choosing to create content means I move into effective action.

1 – Move into Effective Action

Writing cash gifting blog posts helps me grow my home business. So I write cash gifting blog posts. I do not churn out one 1000 word post, spending hours creating this masterpiece, as creating 1 long post daily is poor use of time. Why? You need to wait, to make money online using this strategy.

Patience is over-rated. Virtually all bloggers struggle because they believe you need to write and wait, networking, letting their posts sit – after spending hours creating the content – so people can stop by, comment on their posts and share with larger networks.

Mistake! Write and keep writing and keep writing. If I publish 10, 500 word, keyword-rich posts daily, hitting my twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and Google Plus accounts, and you spend the same amount of time writing one 1000 word blog post, and “networking” who generates more leads?

2 – Why?

Why are you creating cash gifting content? Why are you creating blog posts? Why are you running a home business? Why are you spending time doing this stuff?

Why are you doing what you are doing? Answer these questions to be ruthless with time. Once you know WHY you do what you do life becomes amazingly easy. Establish clarity to move into effective action.

Write out your WHY now to change your life for good!

3 – Do Not Rush

The most stupid tendency I fall into involves rushing. If you rush, you are fearful. If you are fearful, you make stupid decisions. You make poor, ineffective choices with your time, and time management, or choice management, goes right out the window.

Then you wind up like virtually all home business entrepreneurs; you use time ineffectively. Stop rushing. Stop hurrying. Take a deep breath. Smile. Write word by word, think word by word and speak word by word.

Good example; even though writing blog posts rocks posting my cash gifting squeeze page to over 100 groups on FB and a ton of LI groups is a smart act first thing in the morning.

While churning out this post I forgot to do so. Because I smiled, wrote word by word and relaxed by mind as I created, I noted forgetting to advertise my squeeze page and just did so 3 minutes ago. Mindfulness.

Your blog looks snazzy!

Yep, I dig it. If you run a well-dressed blog you can attract more targeted prospects.

If you run a crappy-looking blog, forget about it. People run from you, and your whack-looking blog, pronto.

Like it or not folks are influenced by the look of your offering. Hey, I am all about simplicity at this cash gifting blog, but you knew that. You know I feel simple rocks, as simple makes everything look good.

On the flip side, complex stinks. Complex makes your blog confusing. Simple rocks!

1 – Adopt a Simple Design

Look around my blog. You see a simple, clear design that appears appealing to the eyes.

Yep, that is quite a few As, and for good reason; if people or readers find a post visually appealing this group is likely to stick around.

You can best attract visitors by catching their attention immediately.

People love eye candy. Making your blog simple adds little if any clutter to the mind, and an orderly, uncluttered mind returns to pleasant environments.

Your simple blog is one such environment.

2 – Use Bright Imagery

Each of the pictures I use here are bright, vibrant, and uplifting.

Using dark imagery elicits a low energy feel in the minds of your readers. Not exactly a good way to inspire folks, ya know?

If you know anything about the law of attraction everything in the Universe is a form of energy. If you use light, bright, attention-grabbing imagery you are sure to attract scores of traffic who enjoy your use of high energy imagery.

Spice things up. Let go the black or grey images, add high energy, vibrant colors.

Hey just look up top at my cash gifting banner. Kelli and I, in the brilliant Thai sun, chilling besides crystal blue waters in Phuket. I mean, does it get any more brilliant, color and energy-wise? I think not!

3 – Add YOU

Yeah, you know all the pics of Ry-Dawg in Bali, and Phuket, and Sri Lanka. Me all over the world. I add ME to my blog so people can get to know me, my story, and my dream lifestyle better.

I know of no better way to dress up your blog than adding your personality to your site. Post multiple pictures of yourself living your dream.

Post pictures of you and your family. Dress up your blog and make money online by adding a decidedly YOU element to your blog, because nobody else on earth can add this type of touch, or impact, to their work.

Stop hiding away and start adding personality to your website.

I know, I know; you feel awkward, or self-conscious, or maybe you feel people do not care enough about you, to take interest in your offering.

Until you change this belief held in self people will mirror your belief. Once you change your overall attitude folks will flock to your blog in droves because you decided to add YOU to your theme.

Rewind to 2 years ago.

Ryan Biddulph was comfortable….OH so comfortable. He lived a poor life, in many ways, but at least he was comfy, ya know? He had his sports games, he loved eating his sweets, and he did make a few dollars online.

One problem! He was depressed, deep down. He was unhappy. He was unclear on what he wanted to really do with his life and this lack of clarity manifested as unhappiness. Totally comfortable but miserable, because his love of living in a comfort zone retarded his growth, and hence, happiness.

As a cash gifting coach you need to grow, to be happy. You need to grow to make money online. Once you remain comfortable for any period of time, you stop growing, and your unhappiness grows.

Fast forward 2 years. Ryan just took his 21st flight and visited his 15th country, methinks. He is HAPPY! Because he realized that, by exiting his comfort zone, and flying for the first time, over 2 years ago, and by visiting his first international hotspot, he saw that traveling helps bring him joy.

He found that being happy means making decisions which move you out of your comfort zone. Quickly. Like, 2 years ago I could have said, EFF THIS, I AM NOT FLYING!

Or I could have baby-stepped my way outside of my comfort zone, taking a 45 minute flight from JFK to Boston as a dry run, to see how flying vibed with me.

Nope.

I learned from world changers that SPRINTING out of your comfort zone brings you the most happiness. If you are comfortable, now, caught up in a work routine, or living routine, you never make the choices which bring you true, lasting happiness, which of course, lies outside of your comfort zone.

So I did the 23 hour total flight bit for my first flight because I knew I would be happiest exploring Bali. I was not promised the next 5 seconds, let alone the next day, so I am going for Bali, not Boston, to test out if I could embrace a plane flight.

Do not wait guys.

Do not explain away your ambitions.

Do not wait to grow your cash gifting team. Send a pledge to your People’s Program mentor now, and get started.

Grow your work at home activity now through blogging.

Do not wait, hesitate or delay, because time waits for no one, including you.

Each uncomfortable decision you choose makes you more free and happier.

Make those choices. Otherwise, you will remain comfortable, but miserable, and unhappy, for all of your growth lies on the other side of freeing yet uncomfortable decisions.

Much of my happiness sprouts from feeling embarrassed, angry or agitated, or upset, or tired. I know that these feelings springing up from within my being promote my happiness.

When I grow, I live. When I shy away, I die. I create, or disintegrate.

I am always making the choice, and if I make the uncomfortable choices I know I will be happy.

Ryan Biddulph is a globe-trotting cash gifting coach who helps you make money online.

As I cruise 35,000 feet somewhere over Central America I am reading “The 4 Hour Work Week.” Tim Ferris’ classic stresses you should engage in 2 impact acts at most each day. Yes, you should do 2 things to make the biggest impact. This idea is lost on virtually all online entrepreneurs.

If you run a home based opportunity chances are you try to do more instead of less, to feel productive. Well, writing a few eye-popping pieces of content makes your job easier. One blog post attracts 10 cash gifting leads, instead of having to create 5, 7 or 10 blog posts to attract the same number of leads.

Effectiveness counts. Knowing this, you are silly to create content without adding an eye popping nature to the creation.

1 – Write Ridiculous Titles

Like, using “eye-popping” is kinda ridiculous. I could write “Good, or lead generating, or stupendous” content but eye-popping content makes your eyes pop up, or out, or heck, wherever I want them to pop.

Create effective titles. As a matter of fact do not create a title unless you snag your reader’s attention.

Shock value counts. Use numbers to create order in your reader’s minds. Employ colorful adjectives to increase shock value.

2 – Solve a Problem

Many online business pros struggle to create effective content daily. Stop littering the web with average blog posts and videos. Start creating memorable content.

You can make a sick impact on your target market once you decide to make a sick impact on your target market. Solve problems daily. People need their problems solved. Be the solution provider.

3 – Write 2-4 Blog Posts Daily

If you wish to become a master you must practice like a master. If you wish to create astounding content writing 1 post weekly, or even daily, will not cut it. You cannot become highly skilled by practicing like a novice.

Re-read the title. EYE-POPPING content, not average content, or once in a while GOOD content. You want to create something ridiculously on point, something moving the masses into action, you need to practice like a professional.

Professionals in ANY craft practice thousands of hours to get it down good. Kyrie Irving, current NBA superstar, estimates he practiced some 10,000 hours….BEFORE HE WAS 21 YEARS OF AGE!

This is what it takes folks, to become a creator of seriously entertaining content. Write 2 to 4 blog posts daily or go home.

Time: 6:54 AM, Lima, Peru time

Task: write a blog post.

OK, so far I have responded to social networking requests, time: about 7 minutes.

I also posted my cash gifting squeeze page to over 100 groups between Facebook and LinkedIn. You see, that matters most. People join my cash gifting list. People receive value in my emails. People send me cash money and I teach these folks how to make money online.

I slacked a little, I know, chatting for 7 minutes first thing in the morning. That was a busy work lapse. Sure I chat, but usually later in the day after I posted my squeeze page and published my post…or posts.

But oh well I am human, right? I do silly stuff at times. But thank goodness, here I am writing the blog post. Writing blog posts matters. Big time. Income generating activity here. This puts money in my pocket.

Before I respond to blog comments or leave comments on relevant blogs I write 1-2 blog posts. I then spend a quick amount of time commenting on other blogs because…..these blogs are not MY real estate. I create on my real estate.

Now, blog commenting is important, so I write, and help, and make friends, but I save most of my creative mojo for my blog, where I: earn Adsense revenue, generate cash gifting leads, and attract writing clients.

I know, I know, you need to make friends and network like crazy. Agreed, but the networking like crazy part, not too important. Network, make friends and create like a fiend, because creating like a fiend matters most.

Some people network, or respond to comments, for hours, on hours, on hours, because the activity helps them feel busy. No, spending hours networking daily and writing 1 post weekly is not a terribly effective strategy, unless your bank account is proving otherwise, because you need something more than friends to stand out from the crowd; yep, you need helpful, targeted cash gifting content.

You need something to differentiate yourself from the internet marketing herd. Again, enter content, and of course, you create content by creating content, and you create content by writing blog posts daily while the masses spend hours networking like mad, and creating little content.

Meet me, Ryan Biddulph. I stand out because I have created over 4000 unique blog posts on multiple blogs. Sure I make money friends and we promote each other’s stuff, but create value through content and helping people is my priority, so I spend most of my day creating content, because creating matters.

Feeling busy, or doing stuff to be busy, is a sin, because you are idling. You are doing stuff to fill time instead of doing stuff that really matters.

Take it from a former idler. If you work for work’s sake you receive a meager paycheck and add more grey hairs than you wish to add to your dome. Work intelligently.

Do what matters. Your cash gifting team and bank account will thank you.

I used to think nobody cared about Ryan Biddulph’s story. Really, a guy who was a security guard, running a blog? Cash gifting?

BORING!

Yeah right. Fast forward a few years. I am living in Peru now. I have lived in Bali for 4 months and Phuket for 5 months and in Southeast Asia for 2 years. Yeah, TWO YEARS.

That is crazy. A guy who was an axed ex-security officer writing these words from my hotel in Lima, Peru. I mean, I see vultures cruising around this city, not like any city I have lived in.

I feel the cold breeze off of the Pacific, the product of the upwelling Humboldt Current. What the hell, are you kidding me? What a whacked out story. This guy used to cry himself to sleep sometimes he was so damn broke. He flipped out because nobody joined his team.

He ran into all types of difficulties, but, well, here he is.

What a weak story, right? Rags to riches. Homebody to world traveler.

You have a better story.

I know it.

You home based opportunity novices, who are pros in the waiting, you are going through all types of resistance, or obstacles, or difficulties.

Here is the difference between you and me.

Here is why I travel the world and you are not traveling the world.

I AM NOT AFRAID TO TELL MY STORY AND YOU ARE AFRAID TO TELL YOUR STORY!

That is it. Simple, right? Yes you must work, and be smart, and persist, but once you tell your story, no matter where you are, magical things begin to happen according to the glorious law of attraction.

You begin to make money online with stunning ease. You begin to attract home based opportunity leads with ease.

Like-minded people show up on your cyber door step, people who believe in you, because NOW they know who you are, because you told your story.

You were open, transparent and honest so like-minded people can find you, super easily.

Hey, I am churning this post out from Lima, Peru. You see the pics on my sidebar, me and my smiling mug, and Kelli, traveling the world. I tell my story now and I told it when I was a broke joke, because I knew being REAL helped you achieve REAL success.

If you struggle now, tell your story and share your dream. Are you terrified? Good, so was I. The 2 minutes’ worth of feeling uncomfortable is worth a 4 month trip through Bali, this I can tell you.

10 minutes’ worth of awkward, self-conscious feeling is worth a 2 year trip through Southeast Asia, this I can tell you.

7 minutes’ worth of fear of criticism is worth traveling the world while I make money online. This, I can tell you from personal experience.

Tell your story. People need to know what you are going through and how you are, or have, killed your obstacles to rock out your home based opportunity.

Be a story teller and put yourself in the starring role.

Ryan Biddulph weaves stories, travels the globe and helps you make money online with cash gifting,

I like generating targeted cash gifting leads. I pulled in 10 yesterday by:

writing posts and connecting with folks on social media websites. I know each lead is targeted because I place care with my keywords, and where I decide to post, and guest post.

I just returned from lunch in Lima, Peru. Fun! I hit the comso part of the city – referred to as Miraflores – and it got me thinking how prospering shop owners are master targeters.

One particular sandwich shop is filled each time I pass the store. On Saturday I saw a 5 person line, waiting to be served, and this is a decent sized shop, keep in mind!

The owner masterfully generates targeted leads aka sandwich lovers and no doubt rakes it in, big time. The veggie spot I dined at today offers similar wonderful fare, and each time I visit I usually see 5, 10 or more folks chowing down, even though this is a small shop.

Let us compare why home business entrepreneurs struggle to generate leads and dissect why these Lima restaurant owners rake them in, BIG TIME!

1 – You Change Topics Like Daily

OK today I am talking personal development. Tomorrow cash gifting and the next day I talk home business. If you walk into a law office and receive medical advice you are damn confused.

Same deal if you claim to be a home business coach by talk about personal development, or travel, every other day.

Pepper in different topics sparingly. Stick to your cash gifting niche. Program your audience. Generate targeted leads.

The veggie restaurant I went to caters ONLY to vegetarians and the sandwich restaurant I see packed all the time caters ONLY to sandwich lovers.

2 – No Keywords

OK, you are on topic. Now you need search engine traffic, so you use niche specific keywords to make money online. If you forget to place cash gifting themed keywords in your copy, you are doomed.

Nobody will find you. You will rank poorly on google, and you will be lost on social sites like Facebook and Twitter, and Google Plus.

Use niche specific keywords to rock out your work at home venture.

Hey, the veggie restaurant posts the word “Vegetarian” all over the sign out front, and the menu contains only vegetarian fare.

3 – No Persistence

I guarantee on Day 1 of the veggie restaurant’s opening people did not knock down the door to get their veggie fix. Same deal online with your cash gifting club.

Targeted leads flow in after you persisted for a set amount of time.

If you quit before succeeding, guess what? That is your fault.

If you persist like heck you will attract targeted leads and make money online with your home business. Both success and failure are on YOU, and you alone.

Target your content with keywords, stay on topic and persistently create helpful content, and promote your capture page, to drive targeted cash gifting leads to your website.
