List of Things to be Grateful for

♥

Tomorrow’s Sunday and we’ll get to do all the fun stuff that we usually do on Sundays like taking our kids to places they like, like having a nice lunch / dinner at our favorite restaurants, like meeting up with friends etc. Everyday can be a Sunday day too. If we believe it to be so.

We all have so much to be thankful for, no matter what is the circumstances of our lives. If we reflect on the things in our lives, we will be able to see many things that should be grateful for. Many of these things may seem thrivial compared to our seemingly pressing wants. But what we want is not necessarily what we really need. If we focus on what we really need rather than what we want (our wants are mostly the gratification of material possessions), we will see that we have had a bountiful harvest and have much to be thankful for. The best way for us to measure our true “wealth” is to write down all the things we should be grateful for and all the things we don’t have and therefore should be “grateful” for. A sort of “Assets” and “Liabilities” test. If we go through our list, we will see the greater value of true wealth compared to the transitional and often fleeting values of what we want.

Here is What some people say about being Grateful and Positive:

• “Gratitude is our most direct line to God and the angels. If we take the time, no matter how crazy and troubled we feel, we can find something to be thankful for”. – Terry Lynn Taylor
• “Yesterday is History, Tomorrow is a Mystery. Today is a Gift. That is Why We Call it the ‘Present’ “ – Eugénie des Alpages.
  
• “I would maintain that thanks are the highest form of thought, and that gratitude is happiness doubled by wonder.” - G. K. Chesterton
• “Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe, it can achieve.” – W. Clement Stone.

To give you a Kick Start, I made up a list of things I should be grateful for. A sort of Happiness Index. Why don’t you do one for yourself? When you have done your own Happiness Index with a positive frame of mind, chances are you will see how fortunate you are. If everybody did an audit on the things they should to be thankful for, we could perhaps increase the Happiness Index throughout the world. So this is . . . . . .

My List of Things to be Grateful for:

True Rags to Riches Stories

There are many Rags to Riches stories in Direct Sales. An opportunity to earn a very high income from a low investment – if you persevere and choose the right company to work with.

A delegation of 12 (8 from Singapore and 4 from Indonesia) had the opportunity to attend and witness the many true rags to riches stories in Unicity Thailand. And this is only one market where Unicity has genuine cases of people earning good money in a long term direct selling business.

Our first stop was Presidential Diamond, Khum Joe and his lovely wife’s brand new bungalow house. It’s lovely and cozy home (see YouTube video below). Just 3-4 years ago, Joe was struggling to survive. How did he manage to turn around in such a short time and earn a seven figure annual income from his Unicity Franchise business?

Joe very candidly shared his secrets of his rags to riches stories:

Choose the Right Network Marketing Company:

Like what his mentor and sponsor would always say “If you join the wrong company (meaning companies which is not going to last very long), you have already failed from day one. All your work will go to waste when the company closes down.

Have a Big Outcome:

Have A Clear and Crystallized Vision of your Future. When your outcome is big, you are not perturbed by the problems and obstacles you may face along the way. If your Vision is unclear, you will surely stumble and fall. You will get discouraged and quit. That is why so many people fail . Their Vision is blurred. He will not work with anyone who does not have a clear vision.

More Heart:

Most people like to say “I Must Work Hard”. Joe will say “More Heart ♥ Put More Passion Into Your Work”.

More Action:

Big & Clear Vision + Right Massive, Consistent Action = Big Outcome.

Follow The System:

A Good System should be Simple, Easy, Effective and Duplicable. He uses CD tools extensively for his training. Thailand is so big. Many of his associates are in far remote provinces and they learn from Leaders through such training CDs.

He even uses a speech I made at the Unicity Bangkok Convention 2006 as a motivational tool for his associates. It is no wonder, many of the Thai delegates at this Bangkok Rally Convention recognized me.

His 8 Step System:

1. Be a Unicity Franchise Owner
2. Set Your Dreams and Target
3. Name List
4. Invitation
5. Show the Plan
6. Follow Up
7. Work With the System
8. Planning and Consultation

The remarkable difference between Thailand and the neighboring countries is they did not bargain with the company for a lower Start Up amount or a Lower Maintenance. From day one, they stuck to the 500PV (equivalent to S$1200) of initial purchase of products if someone wants to start the Unicity Franchise and a Monthly Commitment of 200 PV (about S$500). Joe said that he did not want to waste time with someone who is not able to raise S$1200 to start a big business.

For those who are unable to consume S$500 worth of product per month, they can, for example, use S$100 and sell S$400.

We were in for a surprise! We found out that many of them actually used more than S$500 worth of products per month for themselves and their family. They even wiped out stocks in Singapore because of the high demand in Thailand.

Joe and his team have come a long way. (It is not that long ago – 4-5 years – for him to go from zero income to a 7 figure annual income (US$, not Baht!).

Amazing to see so many young people ages 20-30 earning between S$10,000-30,000 per month. They are like Joe – ordinary folks who have Big Dreams. They come from all walks of life – from teachers, nurses, government employees, clerks, secretaries to professionals, and owners of businesses.

Khum (Thai for “Mr”) Joe (38 years old), Thai Presidential Diamond

For the last 20 years, Khum Joe had been in and out of many network marketing / mlm / direct sales companies. Most of the time, the lifespan of these companies were far shorter than his tenure in the company. Each time a MLM or direct sales company collapsed, he lost everything. He even started his own network marketing company. He finally gave up because it could not provide him the lifestyle he dreamed of: Time + Money Freedom.

He was also a consultant to some network marketing / MLM companies and that too did not last long. Deep in his heart, he knew that the only way for him to get what he wanted is to build a very successful franchise in a proven company (which has a good track record and offers real, marketable products). The opportunity came when a Unicity Presidential Sapphire spoke to him about the Unicity business.

The initial start up period in Unicity Thailand was no plain sailing. At one stage (in 2004), his Franchise Owners were reduced from a few hundreds to just a handful. In spite of this major setback, he believed deep in his heart that the Unicity Franchise can make his dreams come true. So he persisted with the remaining few leaders and within a few years, they brought in thousands of new Franchise Owners.

We also attended Joe’s UniPower Seminars and they were packed with more than 2000 enthusiastic people.

Joe’s success is an inspiration to millions of Thais as well as to many people throughout the region. During the trip, we came across many other successful and inspirational direct selling stories. I will share these rags to riches stories with you at another time.

The Thais are experiencing great success with another 30% growth in August 2007. Despite having 100 or more network marketing companies / MLM operating in Thailand, Unicity’s Super Chlorophyll Powder are selling like hot cakes. It is a drink of choice for their film stars, doctors, politicians, right down to taxi drivers, construction workers. This is a testimony to the efficacy of Unicity products.

Super Chlorophyll Powder
(Derived from nutrition-rich alfalfa, this chlorophyll supplement supports overall cleansing and health. Retail: US$18.00)(S$35)

Towards the end of September 2007, Joe will lead a team over 200 Thai delegates to the Unicity Japan Convention. By the time they get to Japan, they will have more than 250 new Presidential Directors. This is certainly cause for celebration in the Thai camp. And a victory for direct sellers.

……………………

The following Singapore Delegates also shared their experiences on the trip:

Priscilla Pang, Executive Director:

The Bangkok Business Rally proves to me, once again, that the Unicity business has a level playing field. People who come in “late” into the business, not only have a chance of doing well, but even exceeding the earnings of those who joined earlier. This is the true test of a good network marketing / MLM company.

With Unicity, everyone can succeed – even physically handicapped people, like Pong Sak from Chiang Mai, Thailand, who is wheelchair bound. He became Senior Manager within a few months of joining Unicity!

Hearing & talking to Pong Sak is such an inspiration! “People look at me as a person on wheelchair, but my brain is not sitting on a wheelchair! My Dreams do not sit on a wheelchair!” If a physically disabled person simply would not let his handicap stop him from pursuing his Dreams, what about the rest of us?. How often do we meet able people who have forgotten how to Dream? Or worse still, don’t believe they could achieve their Dreams? Let’s share this amazing life story of Pong Sak with them, for it could reignite their dreams.

On being asked how he managed to travel all the way from Chiang Mai to attend the Rally in Bangkok, Pong Sak said “My heart is there for Unicity, if I want to be there, I will get there!” How powerful!

Similarly, I won’t let excuses stop me from pursuing what I feel is important to me! I’ll just simply do it till I get it – that’s the most valuable lesson for me. If disabled person can do it, so can I!

Samuel K, Director:

The only way to succeed in direct sales is to be a great leader.

A successful Bangkok Business Rally and the following day’s full day training had a turnout of more than 2000 people. The Thais are not only growing , they are growing bigger and faster.

When I saw the size of the crowd attending the Rally, it immediately gave me a motivating thought. The only way to grow to a size like that is to have a good number of leaders. The bigger the organization we want to build, the more leaders we need to have.

We saw a couple of Presidential Club members moving up the ranks during this trip. This is encouraging as it shows that the growth is consistent with people moving up in a predictable manner.

We have all heard Stewart Hughes talk about the importance of leadership, here in Thailand we got to see leadership at its best. For how can a man run host an event for more than 2000 associates all by himself? Not to mention 2 concurrent sessions of training in one day. Bottom line: Size of Organization = Number of Leaders.

So I guess the question is how do we get a good number of leaders in our organization? Well, we can look at the success of the Thais for inspiration, we can look at our immediate up line for guidance or we can look at the mirror and start working with that person.

I am inspired to develop myself and more importantly lead myself even more just like how my up line, Nancy Long does, setting an great example and walking the talk. If the Thais can do it, so can we.

Jennifer N, Executive Manager:

I admire the enthusiasm of Thai people and their Business Associates. Whether young or old, they joined Unicity with a clear dream in mind.

The turnout of the Rally on the 8 September 2007 at Rama Garden was truly awesome. Two thousand plus of them coming to the event with so much energy and enthusiasm! All of them came for the Rally with the correct attitude. Wearing different color polo t-shirts, they reflect unity in diversity.

People who are serious about the network marketing business must know how to dream. They know, too, what it takes to achieve the dream. For example, a Thai lady from the province taught us that anyone can do the business successfully as long as they put their hearts and souls into it. Initially, she did not even dare to talk to people. However, driven by her dream, she learn to open up and persevere, and talk to as many people as possible. She now owns a Mercedes car. Her husband helps to chauffeur her from province to province so she can deliver products. She now has no problems talking to a big group of people.

My strategy is to:

1. add more names in my contact list,
2. call more people, meet more people,
3. talk to more people about the business and products
4. and therefore achieve a positive growth in my direct sales organization.

Action speaks louder than words. Less Work / Effort = Less Results. On the other hand, More Work / Effort = Better Results.

Another Rags to Riches Story.

Todd Smith September Newsletter

Todd Smith September 2007 Newsletter

Dear Nancy,

The last 60 days since our Orlando convention has been exciting and very busy for me. New Franchise Owner Applications and Preferred Customer Applications were both up over 25% in August from July. Volume in July was up over June and August was up over July, so we are gaining some positive momentum with our new business development systems.

I want to congratulate those of you who are actively developing your businesses. If you are sitting on the sideline, now is the time to get in the game.

Three-Step Franchise Development Training Calls

I just completed a five-week training series on mastering the fundamentals of the Bios Life Three-Step Franchise Development System. This is the system we use as Franchise Owners to identify and train new Franchise Owners.

In the first week, I thoroughly covered step one in the three-step system called, “Introducing the Bios Life Franchise.” In this call I provided numerous tips and ideas on how to best invite the people you know to learn about the Bios Life Franchise.

In the second week, I interviewed Jan Bloom, one of the top Bios Life Franchise Owners. Jan has personally enrolled more than 150 Bios Life Franchise Owners by just talking to people she meets in the course of a normal day. The subject of this call was on creative prospecting ideas and it was the most popular call in the series.In the third week, I covered step two in the three-step system titled, “Building Belief in the Bios Life Franchise Opportunity”. On this call I explained how to follow up and take a person from an initial point of interest after listening to one of our business presentation CDs, to the point where they make a positive decision to get started.

In the forth week’s call, I covered step three called, “Getting Your New Franchise Owners Started Correctly”. On this call I walked listeners step-by-step through the process of Getting their New Franchise Owners started correctly.

On this past Monday’s call, I interviewed four of the top recruiting Franchise Owners who are using the system and it was an exceptional call.

If you have not listened to all five of these calls, I would strongly recommend you make it a priority to do so. There were 16 years of experience and more than 10 hours of preparation that went into each of the calls. These calls provide the most comprehensive training available on the Three-Step Franchise Development System.
Interested in Building Your Local Market?

If you want to build a strong and growing business, the best place to focus your efforts is in building your local market. Not only is it easier identifying and sponsoring people locally, but it is a lot easier helping them build their businesses. In addition, the retention rate of your Franchise Owners will be higher when working locally because you can provide better support to local Franchise Owners.

One of the things I have learned from my 16 years with this company is that if you want to build a local market, you MUST provide a local support structure for the Franchise Owners that join your business organization.

It has been proven over centuries that when people with a common interest come together each week, they remain more active and involved in what they are doing. Of the more than 200 religions, all of them provide a weekly service for their members. In every community, we see examples of clubs and classes demonstrating the importance of people coming together each week. From AA meetings to rock-climbing groups, history has shown us when people with a common interest come together each week, they remain more active and committed to what they are doing.

Recognizing the importance of providing a weekly support structure, I have funded a $100,000 “Beta Test” program to test a new in-home weekly meeting concept. This program includes a weekly DVD with two training lessons and facilitator notes for each week so it is very easy to do.

These meetings are called Growth Groups, because they focus not only on business development, but personal development. They provide a fun, relaxed and positive environment where local Franchise Owners with common interests come together to learn and grow, develop new friendships, provide encouragement, offer support, strengthen relationships, and be recognized for their achievements.

The first group of 30 Franchise Owners (Beta One) was selected and is in the process of a 10 week trial program. The feedback has been so positive, that I am in the process of selecting a second group to participate in Beta Two. To introduce the program, I will be doing a call next Monday night at 9:30 PM EST. If you are interested in building your business within your local market, I want to invite you to learn more about this program.

Here are a couple testimonials from people who came to one of the Growth Groups in their area.

“The meeting was very well put together especially due to the DVD. The information was concise and very informative. I am looking forward to seeing what is to come. Thank you again for inviting me to your home and facilitating these meetings. I am looking forward to learning how to personally grow and grow my business. The best is yet to come.” – Jessica Reyes

Here is another story.

“I just wanted to thank you for including me in your Growth Group. I know it WILL make a huge difference in my activity and level of success.I really think the DVD presentations were extremely well done and really left me looking forward to next week as well as motivating me to stay focused and consistent. I must say though, your personal story and off-the-cuff conversation with us really made the night. It made the evening so personal.I also appreciate your accountability questions and look forward to better success this coming week. – 2 A DAY EVERY DAY!!!Thanks again for your support – see ya next week - Best regards, Vicki”

If you want to know more about this Growth Group program and next Monday’s call which will explain more about it, please send me an email to teamrich1999@gmail.com. Please include your name and the location (city & state) of your local market.

Super Saturday Training Events

Over the next 10 weeks the Franchise Advisory Board and Medical Advisory Board are holding a series of full-day trainings throughout the United States. If you have the desire to build a successful Bios Life Franchise, it is important to continue building your knowledge, confidence and belief. These events are packed with valuable information that will not only help you enjoy greater success, but will short-cut the process.
Two a Day, Every Day, Keep 10 in Play.

One of the greatest benefits of this business is that with a minimal financial investment anyone can achieve their financial goals, if they are willing to follow our systems and never quit. The single most important income producing activity in our business is inviting people to learn about our Franchise opportunity and products. If it is your desire to enjoy the benefits that come from having a successful Bios Life Franchise, then you must be consistent in inviting two people a day to learn about our business and/or products. This is best done over the phone with a simple phone invitation.

All the Pieces are in Place!

I can’t recall a time in my 16 career where the environment for building a Bios Life Franchise has been better than it is today. I really can’t. The need for Bios Life has never been greater. The demand for a business like ours is growing daily. As Franchise Owners, everything we need to build our businesses is in place. We are at the right place at the right time and I am excited about our future.

If I can do anything to help you, please don’t hesitate to ask. I am here for you!

Underdog | Movie Review

Underdog the movie may be targeted for the 4-10 year olds, but delivers entertainment on most fronts more than other so-called “grown-up” movies. My family and I attended the evening show which had very few kids in the audience. From the audience reaction, I could tell that the adults were reacting favorably to this live action / comedy / fantasy / Sci-fi / “Superman” inspired movie. It is certainly one of the better “talking animals” movies. Forget Eddie Murphy‘s animal movies or Scooby Doo, Underdog is the real thing, it is doggone better by far.

The intricate CGI effects and action sequences are well done. Underdog is fast paced catering to the post-MTV generation kids doped on sugar with resultant short attention spans.

The creative team has given a breath of fresh air to this not so well known 60s breakfast cereals-sponsored cartoon series. The main character, Underdog, emotes positivenesses missing in most of today’s films. It follows the life of a ineffective police dog which was kicked out of the Police Dog Unit because of its poor sense of smell. It subsequently gains superpowers accidentally in a scientific laboratory and losses its superpowers near the climax of the movie.

Though Underdog is without superpowers, it still decides to fight the handsome midget turned mad scientist (played superbly by Peter Dinklage) and dogs endowed with superpowers. Before it takes to the fight, Underdog says (quote):

“Some heroes are born,

destined for greatness.

Others are made.

Everyday men and women

and yes, dogs,

who rise up in times of crisis

no matter how high the odds

are stacked against them.

These are the heroes

we all have inside of us.

These are the Underdogs”.

The Underdog story parallels the story of a father (played by ex-action star James Belushi) and his son, both losers of sorts, who made it good in the end. A sort of movie Tom Cruise would do, though not with the same high acting values found in Cruise’s movies. So there you have it, three underdogs who became top dogs!. This could only happen in a Disney movie, but what the heck, do you want a movie that makes you feel good or do you want a movie with a hidden agenda or bad values?. Underdog is certainly a better movie than the “Golden Compass” read review.

The main star, James Belushi (brother of the beloved comedian Jim Belushi of “Animal House” and “Blues Brothers” fame) is a godfather of dog movies having starred or featured in “K-9 P.I.“, “Snow Dogs“, “K-911” , “Dog’s Best Friend” and “K-9“.

The motivational theme is commendable especially for the kids. Underdog teaches kids of all ages never to give up and to think of positive outcomes when doing selfless acts. The movie even encourages kids to use the Thesaurus!

Underdog also has a great soundtrack which includes some of the best soul and blues music ever recorded eg:

Papa’s Got A Brand New Bag (Part 1) – James Brown & The JB’s
Got My Mojo Workin’ – Muddy Waters
Poor Boy – Howlin’ Wolf
Hell Hound On My Trail – Robert Johnson
Boom Boom – John Lee Hooker
Grinnin’ In Your Face – Son House

plus rap music from Mos Def, Jay-Z, DMX and Wu Tang Clan; plus jazz from Wayne Shorter and rock from Jeffery Wright.
So take your kids to see this movie or buy the DVD as a Christmas gift. Underdog the movie did pretty well in the box office in Fall 2007 in spite of stiff competition from other blockbusters. You can’t go wrong with this Disney movie. It may not rank high among Disney‘s long illustrious list of classics, but Underdog is certainly not a movie to be sniffed at.

“How I Raised Myself from Failure to Success in Selling” by Frank Bettger

.

 

 

Frank Bettger (1888-1981) was a Major League baseball player who became jobless after an arm injury while playing the sport. He went into insurance sales but was asked to quit because of his poor sales performance with the company. He was packing his personal belongings and was getting ready to leave when he overheard his boss speaking to a group of sales people.

This is what he heard:

“Gentlemen, after all, this business of selling narrows down to one thing – just one thing . . . seeing the people! Show me any man of ordinary ability who will go out and earnestly tell his story to four or five people every day, and I will show you a man who just can’t help making good!“

- Walter LeMar Talbot, President of the Fidelity Mutual Life Insurance Company.

 

He decided “Yes, I can do that!” By simply applying the Power of Enthusiasm in his sales techniques, he was able to increase his sales by 700% in ten days.

Frank Bettger momentous decision to undergo a complete personal transformation by putting enthusiasm into everything he did has helped him achieve legendary status in the insurance industry. His book “How I Raised Myself From Failure To Success” is still a best-seller today. Frank was so successful, he was able to retire by the age of 42.

 

Everybody goes through this phase (of wanting to quit) at one point or another of their career. Many give up, but some go on to achieve greatness. All these successful people did was to put in little more effort and adopt a little more positiveness than the rest. In the process, they secured rewards beyond their wildest dreams.

 

I believe there is a little Frank Bettger in all of us. If each of us approach and share our story sincerely and enthusiastically to 3-5 persons per day, we will surely achieve our sales target. If we do a little more each day, we will be on our way to enjoying phenomenal sales.

 

Let’s not think about it. Let’s just do it!

Book Reviews:
Nancy Long:

Frank Bettger’s book has been an inspiration to me and his self-help classic has kept me going through those dark days when I was just starting out on a no-salary commission-based direct selling career.

Although the book was published in 1947, its timeless principles of personal development has stood the test of time. Frank was raised by his improvised widowed mom and had no formal education beyond 6th Grade. Though lacking in a formal education, he strongly believed and developed a passionate hunger for continuous learning and skills acquisition.

He introduced to me the concept of making the car my very own mobile study room. Instead of listening to music, I always had several “study” cassette tapes (now CDs) in my car which I would listen to again and again until the key success principles were permanently imprinted into my mind. He also instilled in me the value of books. A library of good books is like a circle of learned friends who will support you when you’re down and out and lift you up when you are on top of the world.

Even if you don’t have a car of your own, you can still own a mobile library. All you need is to convert your Audio Books into mp3 and play it on your mp3 or Ipod player. Listen to it on public transport, when you’re walking or having some refreshments. Nourish your mind as well as your body, and you will see the changes you desire.

The book has a wealth of gems from Frank Bettger like:

“I no longer worry about being a brilliant conversationalist. I simply try to be a good listener. I notice that people who do that are usually welcome wherever they go”.

.

Frank Bettger’s 3 Secrets to Sales Success

1. Know a sales process and follow it!
2. Set specific goals and stick to them.
3. Track your activity and reflect on the data.

Read his book and learn in detail how these 3 aspects of the sales process can improve your sales dramatically. Book Topics include:

• The Power of Enthusiasm
• How to Conquer Fear
• The Key Word for turning a Skeptical Client into an Enthusiastic Buyer
• The Quickest Way to Win Confidence
• How to Deliver a Winning Sales Talk
• Seven Golden Rules for Closing a Sale

Dale Carnegie:

Global Warming Raises High Blood Pressure

If Global Warming goes unchecked, you can expect more than just rising temperatures and rising sea levels. A hotter earth will result in more forest fires and greater pollution. This would lead to lung damage, making breathing difficult and putting a great strain on the overworked heart.

City dwellers will bear the brunt of a hot world as they won’t benefit from the cooling effect of trees and plants in the countryside. The heart and its arteries will come under increased stress as the weather gets hotter.

The hardening of the heart’s arteries is like rust developing on a car. “Rust develops much more quickly at warm temperatures, and so does atherosclerosis,” said Dr. Gordon Tomaselli, chief of cardiology at Johns Hopkins University and program chair at the American Heart Association.

When temperatures are high, we need to sweat in order to get rid of heat. When this happens, the body sends blood to the skin to cool it down, which opens up the blood vessels. As the heart rate rises and blood pressure drops, older people with weakened cardiovascular systems risk getting heart attacks.

During the European heat wave in 2003, there were an estimated 35,000 deaths above expected levels in the first two weeks of August. In France alone, nearly 15,000 extra people died when temperatures soared. Experts say much of that was due to heart problems in the elderly worsened by the extreme heat.

Effects of Global Warming:

If global warming emissions are not slowed down considerably, CardioVascular Diseases will be the least of our worries:

1. Sea levels will rise by as much as 19-37 inches by 2100.

2. Temperatures could rise by as much as 3-9 degrees by the end of the Century. This heatwave will give rise to greater incidences of malaria, dengue fever and heart diseases.

3. More than one million species could be condemned into extinction by 2050. Will helpful species fill this vacuum or will harmful species dominate and plaque our hot world?

4. Worsening air quality like smog will see lung damage resulting in respiratory illness, heart diseases and death.

5. Spread of illness, diseases and allergens. Higher levels of carbon dioxide will result in more pollen being released into the atmosphere and increased food and water borne diseases.

Mankind would not be able to evolve fast enough to cope with the climate changes. So do your part to Save the World from Climate Chaos Now.

Weather Outlook for 2007-2008

According to the Farmers’ Almanac, years ending with an “8″ are years with weather extremes and that 2008 will be the hottest year of the Century (“Century” here refers to the past 100 years). Next year, sickly Mother Nature is expected to suffer a “split personality”, some parts will be parched with drought and some parts pounded by thunderstorms and floods. “Two faced” Mother Nature will make some parts of the earth uncomfortably hot, and others terribly cold. Blame it on sunspots, Global Warming, El Nino, Hole in the Ozone layer etc.

Watch Al Gore’s “Inconvenient Truth”, if you are concerned about global warming.

For the South East Asian region, the threat of a uncontrollable forest fires could haze up the region’s blue skies as Indonesian farmers destroy the region’s green lungs. The region was spared of haze in 2007 by favorable winds. But will the winds blow the right way in 2008?

Coffee Linked to High Blood Pressure

Did you know that Coffee has over 1000 compounds, three of which are said to be Cancer causing? But it is ok if taken in moderation, right? Well what if we were to tell you that there is a new study which links your cuppa Cappuccino, Latte, Java, Mocha, Caffe, Expresso, Kopi-O or any other favourite freshly brewed Caffeine Pick-Me-Ups with Heart Disease?

National Public Health Institute, Helsinki, Finland and the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition study showed that Coffee drinkers are more predisposed to High Blood Pressure (HBP) or Hypertension.

The study also showed that Coffee drinkers who took more than 2 cups of coffee are more likely to suffer from High Blood Pressure than non-Coffee drinkers by 29%. However, if the Coffee drinkers consumed eight cups of coffee, their risk of Hypertension increased by only 14%.

However, Coffee seems to reduce type 2 Diabetes, so coffee’s relationship with CardioVascular Diseases is not so clear cut as yet.

In a related study, done by the Julius Center for Health Sciences and Primary Care in the Netherlands, tea drinkers were also found to have a lower risk of getting High Blood Pressure than did those who drank up to three cups of coffee per day.

A compound found in tea, Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), may have helped to negate the effects of high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) , thus minimizing the onset of diabetes, the Rutgers University study showed.

The liquid sweetener (HFCS) usually found in soft drinks that contains both fructose and glucose, was said to cause diabetes, particularly in kids, and the study seems to verify this.

In a study of 11 different soft drinks, it was found that “astonishingly high” levels of reactive carbonyls (said to cause cell and tissue damage) was found in these drinks.

Reactive carbonyls are linked to diabetes, as they are found in higher levels in the bloodstreams of persons suffering the disease. Reactive carbonyls are not detected in table sugar. The silver lining is that by including EGCG in soft drinks, it may be possible to lower the levels of reactive carbonyls in these soft drinks.

Harmful Effects of Coffee

1. Coffee is a narcotic beverage and belongs to the same alkaloid group as morphine, strychnine and cocaine. A dangerous toxin – caffeine hydrochloride – is produced when coffee interacts with stomach acids.

2. It has high concentration of Trichloroethylene, a life-threatening toxin.

3. It impacts negatively on health, exercise and sports performance due to the overworking of the adrenal glands.

4. It lowers the effectiveness of obesity, depression, pain and high blood pressure medication.

5. Heavy coffee drinking causes inadequate supply of Thaimine (Vitamin B-1) to the body resulting in nervousness, headaches, fatigue etc.

Evan Almighty | Movie Review

Forget what the film critics may say, Evan Almighty may not be Oscar winning material, but it is delightful and wholesome enough for both kids and adults alike. I wasn’t expecting much from the movie as it was my pre-teen son’s choice, but could not help but enjoy the many funny moments the movie threw up at regular intervals, much to my surprise.

Both fun and serious, Evan Almighty bestows its important messages about family, responsibility and the environment. This big Summer comedy hit never saw so many car loads of Christian families heading to the theaters since Mel Gibson told them to do so.

It is not a religious film though Evan Almighty does follow the Noah’s Ark conventions to some degree. I was hoping it would be more faithful to the Biblical account, but I guess that would make it a disaster movie and alienate the intended target audience. Nonetheless, I hope Hollywood do make a more realistic movie about Noah’s Ark as narrated in the Bible. What with global warming, it could make people sit up and do something before we do irreparable damage to our environment. The previous film versions of the Noah’s Ark has been unsatisfactory to say the least.

Evan Almighty is Rated PG for mild rude humor and the final scene is fairly intense, maybe even scary for very young kids.

I particularly like the basic premise of the movie which is : ARK = “Do An Act of Random Kindness”. Practice random kindness and senseless acts of beauty. I would rate Evan Almighty 7/10 as a motivational movie.

Don’t leave the theater before Evan Almighty film credits ends. Watch the cast’s hilarious dance sequence to the big 1980s dance hit – “Everybody Dance Now!” by the C+C Music Factory. The movie is a sequel to the hugely successful Jim Carrey’s “Bruce Almighty” which is not really a faith-based movie like this one. Steve Carell, the lead actor in Evan Almighty also starred in the earlier movie.

It may be too late to catch Evan Almighty in the theaters, but do watch out for it on DVD when it comes out in October 2007. This is one film movie that is better than its trailer. That says a lot about it.

Unlike Evan Almighty which has some Christian values in it, The Golden Compass is just the opposite. Avoid it at all costs.

MSG | Heart Diseases and Cancer

♥

♥

.

 

What is worst than alcohol, nicotine and drugs? Can be found on your kitchen shelves and sold in school canteens, supermarkets etc? It is MSG (MonoSodium Glutamate) a flavoring ingredient for foods. But they are only used in Chinese food right? Wrong! MSG can be found in most common foods as it boosts the marketability of food products (like salt and sugar) and is a cheap food flavoring agent.

 

MSG can be found in soups, biscuits, meats and even infant milk formulas, in fact, most processed foods and in junk foods. You won’t find MSG on food product labels but the following ingredients could indicate the presence of MonoSodium Glutamate:

• Gelatin
• Hydrolyzed Vegetable Protein (HVP)
• Yeast Extract
• Malted Barley
• Rice Syrup or Brown Rice Syrup
• broth, casein, autolyzed, etc, making MSG very difficult for even the most sophisticated health conscious shoppers to detect simply by reading the food label.
• if the food tastes good, chances are it may have MSG in it.

 

MSG is said to be linked to obesity, the risk of heart attack, stroke, type 2 diabetes, insomnia, cancer etc. At the very least, it can give you a heartburn – so called because of a burning sensation near your breastbone caused by gastric juices over-reacting because of MSG.

Studies showed that 40% of the population reacted adversely to high levels of MSG.

Aspartame has similiar compounds as MonoSodium Glutamate.

Our article was featured in CNN.com website on 3 October 2007.

 

 

Watch this three-part YouTube video by Dr. Russell Blaylock, a board-certified neurosurgeon, who says that MonoSodium Glutamate is a dangerous excitotoxin that can make you fat triggering the Big 2 Diseases – Cancer and Heart Disease. According to Dr Blaylock, MSG overexcites your cells to the point of damage, acting like a poison and causing free radical damage.

Dietary fiber can Lower Blood Pressure

 

♥

Increased intake of dietary fiber can lower blood pressure

♥

Researchers collated the results of 25 studies on the effects of dietary fiber on blood pressure and found that a high-fiber diet contributed to a significant reduction in blood pressure levels among people with high blood pressure.

♥

Recent research suggests that as much as 35 grams of fiber a day is needed to help reduce the risk of heart disease. A fiber supplement can help make up the shortfall, but should not be a substitute for fiber-rich foods. Foods that are high in fiber also contain nutrients that may help reduce the risk of chronic disease. In addition, eating a variety of such foods provides several types of fiber, whereas some fiber supplements contain only a single type of fiber, such as methylcellulose or psyllium*.

♥

Unfortunately, increasing the intake of dietary fiber (such as wheat bran, pectin, or oat bran) did not show any reduction or prevention of high blood pressure.

♥

Fiber does have many other health benefits, including preventing constipation and preventing or relieving hemorrhoids. Fiber also helps lower cholesterol and control weight.

♥

Fiber is the part of plant foods that your body cannot digest. Fiber is crucial to health because it promotes healthy bacteria in your digestive tract. Fiber can also keep your blood sugar and cholesterol levels at manageable levels.

♥

Nearly 50 million Americans and 1 billion people worldwide have high blood pressure.

♥

Use the DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) diet prepared by the US Dept of Health & Human Services as a guide to higher dietary fiber (DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension – pdf file).

High Blood Pressure Risk for Children with High Salt Diet

♥

♥

♥

The new study, based on data collected in the 1997 National Diet and Nutrition Survey for young people in Great Britain (NDNS), will add further urgency to food industry efforts to reduce the salt content of their products.

♥

Published in the Journal of Human Hypertension, the study showed that the more salt children ate, the higher their blood pressure became. They recommended that parents restrict their children’s salt intake as follows:

♥

• Babies under 6 months old - Less than 1 g of salt daily
• Babies 7-12 months old - Max of 1 g
• Children 1-3 years old - Max of 2 g
• Children 4-6 years old - Max 3g*
• Children 7-10 years old - Max 5g
• Children 11-14 years old - Max 6g

* (Study found that their Average intake was 4.7g)

The above maximum daily salt intake does not include salt used in cooked food for main meals and table salt.

♥

Excessive salt consumption has been linked to conditions such as asthma, osteoporosis, stomach cancer and hypertension (high blood pressure) leading to heart attack and stroke in later years, according to the study.

♥

“The message for parents is to check labels, especially on foods such as breakfast cereals and snack products, which they may not expect to contain high levels of salt, and choose the lower salt options. 1.5g of salt may not sound much, but parents need to know that it is half a six year-old’s maximum recommended upper limit of salt for a whole day (3g) and 30 per cent of a ten year-old’s (5g),” said Jo Butten, nutritionist for Consensus Action on Salt and Health.

♥

Health experts even recommended that some instant noodles should be avoided completely.

Women & Heart Attacks

♥

Women & Heart Attacks

 

♥

Dear friends,

I am forwarding this as it may help save lives, or more importantly that of our loved ones.

I was aware that female heart attacks are different, but this is the best description I’ve ever read. You all take care out there!

♥

Women and heart attacks (Acute Myocardial infarction – AMI)

♥

Did you know that women rarely have the same dramatic symptoms that men have when experiencing heart attack…you know, the sudden stabbing pain in the chest, the cold sweat, grabbing the chest & dropping to the floor that we see in the movies. Here is the story of one woman’s experience with a heart attack.

♥

“I had a completely unexpected heart attack at about 10 :30 pm with NO prior exertion; NO prior emotional trauma that one would suspect might’ve brought it on. I was sitting all snugly & warm on a cold evening, with my purring cat in my lap, reading an interesting story my friend had sent me, and actually thinking,“A-A-h, this is the life, all cozy and warm in my soft, cushy Lazy Boy with my feet propped up.” A moment later, I felt that awful sensation of indigestion, when you’ve been in a hurry and grabbed a bite of sandwich and washed it down with a dash of water, and that hurried bite seems to feel like you’ve swallowed a golf ball going down the esophagus in slow motion and it is most uncomfortable. You realize you shouldn’t have gulped it down so fast and needed to chew it more thoroughly and this time drink a glass of water to hasten its progress down to the stomach. This was my initial sensation—the only trouble was that I hadn’t taken a bite of anything since about 5:00 p.m.

♥

After that had seemed to subside, the next sensation was like little squeezing motions that seemed to be racing up my SPINE (hind-sight, it was probably my aorta spasming), gaining speed as they continued racing up and under my sternum (breast bone, where one presses rhythmically when administering CPR). This fascinating process continued on into my throat and branched out into both jaws.

♥

AHA!! NOW I stopped puzzling about what was happening–we all have read and/or heard about pain in the jaws being one of the signals of an MI happening, haven’t we? I said aloud to myself and the cat, “Dear God, I think I’m having a heart attack!” I lowered the foot rest, dumping the cat from my lap, started to take a step and fell on the floor instead.

♥

I thought to myself “If this is a heart attack, I shouldn’t be walking into the next room where the phone is or anywhere else.but, on the other hand, if I don’t, nobody will know that I need help, and if I wait any longer I may not be able to get up in moment.”

♥

I pulled myself up with the arms of the chair, walked slowly into the next room and dialed the Paramedics… I told her I thought I was having a heart attack due to the pressure building under the sternum and radiating into my jaws. I didn’t feel hysterical or afraid, just stating the facts. She said she was sending the paramedics over immediately, asked if the front door was near to me, and if so, to unbolt the door and then lie down on the
floor where they could see me when they came in.

♥

I then laid down on the floor as instructed and lost consciousness, as I don’t remember the medics coming in, their examination, lifting me onto a gurney or getting me into their ambulance, or hearing the call they made to the Emergency Unit of a nearby hospital on the way, but I did briefly awaken when we arrived and saw that the Cardiologist was already there in his surgical blues and cap, helping the medics pull my stretcher out of the ambulance. He was bending over me asking questions (probably something like “Have you taken any medications?”) but I couldn’t make my mind interpret what he was saying, or form an answer, and nodded off again, not waking up until the Cardiologist and partner had already threaded the teeny angiogram balloon up my femoral artery into the aorta and into my heart where they installed 2 side by side stints to hold open my right coronary artery.

♥

I know it sounds like all my thinking and actions at home must have taken at least
20-30 minutes before calling the Paramedics, but actually it took perhaps 4-5 minutes before the call, although the hospital is only minutes away from my home, and my Cardiologist was already to go to the OR in his scrubs and get going on restarting my heart (which had stopped somewhere between my arrival and the procedure) and installing the stints.

♥

Why have I written all of this to you with so much detail? Because I want
all of you who are so important in my life to know what I learned first hand.

1. Be aware that something very different is happening in your body not the usual men’s symptoms, but inexplicable things happening (until my sternum and jaws got into the act) It is said that many more women than men die of their first (and last) MI because they didn’t know they were having one, and commonly mistake it as indigestion, take some Maalox or other anti-heartburn preparation, and go to bed, hoping they’ll feel better in the morning when they wake up…which doesn’t happen. My female friends, your symptoms might not be exactly like mine, so I advise you to call the Paramedics if ANYTHING is unpleasantly happening that you’ve not felt before. It is better to have a “false alarm” visitation than to risk your life guessing what it might be!
2. Note that I said “Call the Paramedics.” Ladies, TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE!
3. Do NOT try to drive yourself to the hospital–you’re a hazard to others on the road, and so is your panicked husband who will be speeding and looking anxiously at what’s happening with you instead of the road. Do NOT call your doctor–he doesn’t know where you live and if it’s at night you won’t reach him anyway, and if it’s daytime, his assistants (or answering service) will tell you to call the Paramedics. He doesn’t carry the equipment in his car that you need to be saved! The Paramedics do, principally OXYGEN that you need as soon as possible. Your doctor will be notified later.

♥

Don’t assume it couldn’t be a heart attack because you have a normal cholesterol count. Research has discovered that a cholesterol elevated reading is rarely the cause of an MI (unless it’s unbelievably high, and/or accompanied by high blood pressure.) MI’s are usually caused by long-term stress and inflammation in the body, which dumps all sorts of deadly hormones into your system to sludge things up in there. Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let’s be careful and be aware. The more we know the better chance we have of survival.

Important Things to Note about Heart Attack Symptoms for Women:

.

Women account for nearly half of all heart attack deaths. Heart disease is the number one killer of both women and men.

Women are less likely to believe they are having a heart attack and therefore delay in getting treatment resulting in fatalities.

Women tend to be 10 years older than men when they have their heart attacks. They are likely to be suffering from diabetes and heart diseases.

One Month prior to having a heart attack, 95% of the women experienced new or different sensations like unusual fatigue (70.6-percent), sleep disturbance (47.8-percent), and shortness of breath (42.1-percent).

.
Less than 43% of women experience chest pains during heart attacks.

Symptoms such as indigestion, sleep disturbances, or weakness in the arms, which women may experience on a daily basis, were recognized as warning signals for Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) in the NIH study.

Women’s symptoms are not as predictable as that of men’s. If in doubt, go for a full medical examination including blood test to check for cholesterol levels etc.

.

The women‘s major symptoms prior to their heart attack include:.

• Unusual fatigue – 70%
  Sleep disturbance – 48%
  Shortness of breath – 42%
  Indigestion – 39%
  Anxiety – 35%
  

.

Major symptoms during the heart attack include:

Shortness of breath – 58%
Weakness – 55%
Unusual fatigue – 43%
Cold sweat – 39%
Dizziness, Nausea, or Light-headedness.- 39%
Pain or discomfort in the center of the chest – 38%
Pain or discomfort in other areas of the upper body, including the arms, back, neck, jaw, or stomach.

.
Related NIH research into heart attacks in women includes possible ethnic and racial differences.

Danger of Getting a Heart Attack When Awakening from Sleep

♥

♥

.

You may be in danger of getting a heart attack when you wake up from sleep in the morning.

♥

These are some of the factors which can cause a cardiac attack if you don’t have a healthy heart:

• Dehydration
• A bout of anger
• Strenuous exercise
• Infectious diseases, like pneumonia or the flu.

♥When you wake up in the morning, your body releases stress hormones into your bloodstream in preparation of getting your body in motion of rising from bed. This awakening may cause a cardiac arrest if your arteries are clogged with cholesterol-rich plaque.

♥So reducing the intake of cholesterol into your blood stream is crucial to prevent the plaque build up in your arteries.

♥

Report from the Mayo Clinic and other medical websites:

♥

Sleep apnea: Can it cause heart disease? Sleep apnea, along with its most common symptom, snoring, is more than just annoying. Some evidence suggests sleep apnea (obstructive hypopnea or OSAH) increases your risk of heart disease.

♥

Obstructive Sleep apnea is a disorder that results in brief pauses in breathing during sleep. The word “apnea” is a Greek word meaning “want of breath.” With sleep apnea, breathing pauses can last from 10–30 seconds or more and can occur up to 400 times a night. For some people, sleep apnea will interrupt sleep every 30 seconds, all night long. Sleep apnea is a common and potentially life-threatening condition that frequently goes unrecognized and undiagnosed due to a lack of awareness among physicians and the general public.

♥

Sleep apnea is a serious condition that can affect a person’s ability to safely perform normal daily activities. It is thought that approximately 25 percent of adults are at risk for sleep apnea. Men are more commonly affected than women; other risk factors include middle and older age, being overweight or obese, high blood pressure, and type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Are YOU living your Dream Life?

♥

Are YOU set to be one of the millions of New Millionaires in the next 10 years?

♥

Books have transformed my life again and again. Because of these books, I am living the life I always dream about when I was a child.

♥

I grew up in a small village near rubber plantations in then rural Northern Singapore. The house I lived in was an old wooden house with a roof made of coconut tree leaves. We had lots of unwanted guests in our household like rodents (certainly not one as cute as the rat in the Ratatouille movie). My dad was a school bus driver and my mom was a housewife. Life was tough and we barely got by with what my dad made from his bus service. Having a piece of cake or a bowl of fish-ball noodles was a rare luxury for us.

♥

From as young as 9 years old, I remembered I made a decision to study hard, get a good job and earn lots of money to take care of my parents and travel around the world. After finishing school, I started work as a clerk in the government service. My salary was a paltry S$175 per month. Three years later, my salary rose to a grand sum of S$210. I decided that the corporate world would pay me more, so I joined a company as a Secretary. Life in the corporate sector proved to be stressful with working hours ranging from 10 to 12 hours per day. After working my butt off for 7 years, my pay was barely S$1,000 per month.

♥

I knew I was on the wrong side of the Wealth Equation – no time, no money, no mentors, no possibilities of wealth in the horizon, and no clue as to how I could change my life.

♥

In 1979, my life was about to change forever. I was then attending a part-time Diploma course on Administrative Management. During one of the sessions, a lecturer, Mr Lim Boon Tong, encouraged the class to write down our goals on how much we wanted to earn in 5 years time. At the same time, he recommended us to read 2 books:

• “Think and Grow Rich” by Napoleon Hill, and
• “How to Make Friends and Influence People” by Dale Carnegie

♥

I wrote my goal: “I want to earn S$5,000 per month on or before 5 years time“

♥

He advised that we look at our goals 3 times a day. I read my goal every morning, evening and night. I even pasted my written goal on my dresser mirror and had another in my purse.

♥

At the same time, I started reading the recommended book:”Think and Grow Rich“. After that, I went on to read: “How to Win Friends and Influence People“. The two books prepared me for a new life and a brand new career which allowed me to earn millions and millions of dollars in the years to come.

♥

I was not looking for a get-rich-quick scheme. I wanted a legitimate business which would help me accumulate wealth steadily year by year over a long period of time. I knew from the “Thing and Grow Rich” book, that this could not be accomplished without hard, consistent work and continual self-improvement. Yes, I am an old-fashion marketeer at heart, who wanted a business that would benefit not only me but also my future clients.

♥

But that is another story…. I’ll just leave you with one quote in the Napoleon Hill’s book “Think and Grow Rich” which has greatly influence my beliefs and actions in the years to come:

“Whatever you vividly imagine, ardently desire, sincerely believe, and enthusiastically act upon must inevitably come to pass.”

- Paul J. Meyer quotes

Napoleon Hill

Other Quotes from Napoleon Hill:

“More gold has been mined from the thoughts of men than has been taken from the earth.”

“Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve.”

“A quitter never wins and a winner never quits.”

“Success requires no explanations. Failure permits no alibis.”

“Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.”

Dale Carnegie Quotes about Friendships:

• “When we hate our enemies, we are giving them power over us: power over our sleep, our appetites, our blood pressure, our health and our happiness. Our enemies would dance with joy if only they knew how they were worrying us, lacerating us, and getting even with us! Our hate is not hurting them at all, but our hate is turning our days and nights into a hellish turmoil.”

• “You can close more business and make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get people interested in you.”

• “If you want to win friends, make it a point to remember them. If you remember my name, you pay me a subtle compliment; you indicate that I have made an impression on you. Remember my name and you add to my feeling of importance.”

• “When dealing with people, let us remember we are not dealing with creatures of logic. We are dealing with creatures of emotion, creatures bustling with prejudices and motivated by pride and vanity.”

Dale Carnegie Quotes about Winning & Success:

• “Develop success from failures. Discouragement and failure are two of the surest stepping stones to success.”

• “It isn’t what you have, or who you are, or where you are, or what you are doing that makes you happy or unhappy. It is what you think about.”

• “Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no help at all.”

• “Success is getting what you want. Happiness is wanting what you get.”

• “You never achieve real success unless you like what you are doing.”

• “Flaming enthusiasm, backed up by horse sense and persistence, is the quality that most frequently makes for success.”

• “Feeling sorry for yourself, and you present condition, is not only a waste of energy but the worst habit you could possibly have.”

• “People rarely succeed unless they have fun in what they are doing.”

• “You can conquer almost any fear if you will only make up your mind to do so. For remember, fear doesn’t exist anywhere except in the mind.”

• “Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage. If you want to conquer fear, do not sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy.”

• “First ask yourself: What is the worst that can happen? Then prepare to accept it. Then proceed to improve on the worst.”

• “Don’t be afraid to give your best to what seemingly are small jobs. Every time you conquer one it makes you that much stronger. If you do the little jobs well, the big ones tend to take care of themselves.”

• “If you believe in what you are doing, then let nothing hold you up in your work. Much of the best work of the world has been done against seeming impossibilities. The thing is to get the work done.”

• “Our fatigue is often caused not by work, but by worry, frustration and resentment.”

• “If you want to conquer fear, don’t sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy”

• “Fear not those who argue but those who dodge.”

• “Happiness doesn’t depend on any external conditions, it is governed by our mental attitude”

• “Do the hard jobs first. The easy jobs will take care of themselves.”

• “If you can’t sleep, then get up and do something instead of lying there and worrying. It’s the worry that gets you, not the loss of sleep.”

• “Many people think that if they were only in some other place, or had some other job, they would be happy. Well, that is doubtful. So get as much happiness out of what you are doing as you can and don’t put off being happy until some future date.”

BIOS LIFE FRANCHISE BUSINESS MODEL

BIOS LIFE FRANCHISE

BUSINESS MODEL

.

Getting Started

The Bios Life Franchise business model is based on three fundamental business principles:

• The Problem
• The Solution
• The Opportunity

In fact, the bigger the problem, the bigger the business opportunity. History has proven time and again that people who are willing to solve problems generate significant amounts of wealth for their efforts. The Bios Life Franchise business model is no different. The model is tailored to solve the world’s greatest health problem and create wealth for those people who are willing to build a successful Bios Life Franchise around the opportunity.

The biggest problems in the world create the biggest opportunities for wealth.

Before reviewing the details of the Bios Life Franchise business model, it is important to understand both the problem and the solution that drive the opportunity.

Find out why the Wellness Industry will be the highest growing industry in this Century from this video:

1. The Problem – Cardiovascular Disease

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in the world, surpassing HIV / AIDS, Alzheimer’s and cancer combined. In fact, cardiovascular disease kills over 35% of people living in developed countries. Data in developing countries is not as easily obtained, but cardiovascular disease has been identified as an emerging crisis in both China and India – the two most populated countries in the world. Three million Chinese died in China every year! 27% of Asians died from cardiovascular disease every year. Bringing statistics closer to home – 43% of Malaysians and 34% of Singaporeans died from cardiovascular disease every year. In absolute number, 8,219 people died of cardiovascular disease in Asia daily. Every 10 seconds, a person died of cardiovascular disease. This number is increasing over the years….
The leading cause of cardiovascular disease is unhealthy cholesterol levels. It is estimated that over 75 million North Americans suffer from high cholesterol, and the number keeps growing. In Singapore, statistics have shown that 18.7% of the Singapore population suffered from high cholesterol and 34.4% have borderline high cholesterol level (between 18 to 69 years old). This translates to a total number of 1,886,961 Singaporeans who have unhealthy cholesterol levels.
It is a fact that one in three people will die from cardiovascular disease. If you have two close friends, chances are that one of you will die from cardiovascular disease.

2. Chemical Solutions

Over the past 10 years, major pharmaceutical companies have introduced prescription drugs to fight high cholesterol. These drugs are called Statins. In fact, the two best-selling prescription medications in the world are:

• The inability to increase levels of “good” cholesterol (HDL)
• Statin provide no impact on triglyceride or glucose levels
• Based on warnings from the manufacturers, Statin could potentially result in dangerous Side-Effects.

It is estimated that over 25% of all people with high cholesterol cannot take Statin medications due to potential Statins side-effects.
The Bios Life Franchise business model is not focused on undermining the role of Statin medications in fighting high cholesterol. Rather, the Bios Life Franchise offers an alternative.

3. The Natural Solution

Introducing Bios Life™ – the only clinically proven, patented, safe and natural solution for complete cholesterol care.

Contrary to most cholesterol products on the market, Bios Life ™attacks cholesterol problems in four different ways:

• Blocks re-absorption of cholesterol in the gastrointestinal tract
• Reduces absorption of cholesterol produced by the liver
• Blocks absorption of cholesterol from digested food
• Enhances enzymatic breakdown and removal of bad cholesterol from the body

The combination of these four mechanisms to balance cholesterol levels is revolutionary. The ultimate benefit of Bios Life™ for the cardiovascular system and triglyceride levels is only half the story. The immediate benefits of naturally regulating the absorption rate of nutrients and sugars by the body results in sustained energy, gradual weight loss, and a supported immune system.
Bios Life™ is the solution to imbalanced cholesterol levels and to the continual highs and lows associated with irregular absorption of nutrients and sugars. The appropriate application of the solution to these health problems results in the business opportunity.

Benefit from the 7 Trends

4. The Market is Ripe

People have become more and more informed about the risks of high cholesterol through a bombardment of advertisements, press articles and government warnings. Large pharmaceutical companies are spending billions of dollars each year educating the public about the risks of high cholesterol. In addition, millions of people with fluctuating blood-sugar levels are experiencing devastating effects on their quality of life.
Recent studies have shown that the market potential is over $135 billion per year in the U.S. alone. The number is much more on a global scale. The problem is huge. The market is ripe. Are you ready to capitalize on the opportunity?

5. The Bios Life Franchise Opportunity

Building a business as a Bios Life Franchise Owner is simple. Just share Bios Life™ with as many people as possible. As people try Bios Life™ and see significant improvement in their cholesterol levels, they will become part of your loyal customer base generating income for you every month.Your first goal in achieving a successful Franchise is to build a strong customer base.The Bios Life Franchise business model is based on a foundation of at least 20 customers. This level can be achieved at your own pace. Some Bios Life Franchise Owners add five new customers to their business each month. Many add 10 customers per month while some add up to 20 per month. The key to lasting success is a minimum of 20 loyal customers.As a Franchise Owner with 20 customers, you can earn a residual income of S$400 per month, or up to S$4,800 per year.

6. Duplicate to Expand Your Franchise

To expand your Franchise, simply share the Bios Life Franchise business model with others and help them build a base of 20 customers. These new Franchise Owners become an extension of your Franchise and their efforts will generate income for your Franchise.
Some of your customers may be interested in a Bios Life Franchise. Your customer base is an excellent source of potential Franchise Owners.
The Bios Life Franchise business model provides the greatest rewards to those Franchise Owners who expand their Franchise to include five partner Franchises.
When you share the Bios Life Franchise business model with five people and help them to build a base of 20 customers, you can increase your income to between S$1200 and S$1800 per month.
Teach these five Franchise Owners to expand their Franchises with 5 business partners and build your sales 3 level deep and your income can grow to above $7000 per month.

7. The Power of Duplication- Building Legacy Franchises

The power of duplicating a profitable business model provides the opportunity to grow your Franchise to your desired level. Some Franchise Owners are content with an extra $500 per month while others have built a business that provides an income level of which they had only dreamed. The strength of the Bios Life Franchise Business Model is that anyone can be successful – from the part-time Franchise Owner to the full -time professional business builder.
