The Trouble Tree
By: Author Unknown
The carpenter I hired to help me restore an old farmhouse
had just finished a rough first day on the job. A flat tire
made him lose an hour of work, his electric saw quit, and
now his ancient pickup truck refused to start.
While I drove him home, he sat in stony silence. On
arriving, he invited me in to meet his family. As we walked
toward the front door, he paused briefly at a small tree,
touching tips of the branches with both hands. When opening
the door, he underwent an amazing transformation. His
tanned face was wreathed in smiles, and he hugged his two
small children and gave his wife a kiss.
Afterward, he walked me to the car. We passed the tree and
my curiosity got the better of me. I asked him about what I
had seen him do earlier.
"Oh, that's my trouble tree," he replied. "I know I can't
help having troubles on the job, but one thing's for sure;
troubles don't belong in the house with my wife and the
children. So I just hang them up on the tree every night
when I come home. Then in the morning I pick them up
again."
"Funny thing is," he smiled, "when I
come out in the morning to pick them up,
there aren't nearly as many as I
remember hanging up the night befor

"How to Read The Current Situation And Profit from it"
The world has been turned upside down in the last 7 months or so..And the things I felt come did so and with a vengeance.
1. XL Results Foundation: when from being profitable to losing about $1million per month and had to totally restructure which it is still doing.
2. Mortgagee sales have dramatically increased in NZ and many are because they "Put It On The House!" and that included their business debts and now they are regretting that.
3. Many 1000's of people got exited about the property markets all around the world and particularly in NZ and for mostly the wrong reasons. Because it became the hottest topic and every Tea lady was discussing it ....the Scammers entered the market and made a killing and now Mr & Mrs Q Public are paying the bill mostly by having to selling the family home to cover the debts to the Banks. Many developments are sitting partly finished or just sitting unsold. Developers are being made Bankrupt by the 100's including many of the largest ones that made you feel POOR last year.
4. There are a huge portion of the public suffering and looking for relief and as we know wont want to do what it takes to get that relief other than VENT about it.
5. There are now loads of new Direct Sales companies emerging from every crack and cranny offering to make you Rich if you will just join them. Most are scams or On the Growing List Of PONZEE schemes.
5. Most established MLM companies are having a hell of a job to maintain their volumes and Distributor Numbers and by that I mean Active distributor Numbers.
6. Most Direct Online Markers are Currently Giving Away their Products as long as the Buyer pays the Freight [ they make a wee bit on that] and get a new Prospect to pound on.
7. People have been attempting to sell up and move to Aussie for the better life ...Yet The news from Aussie isn't any Better that from NZ in fact Aussie is just staring to have the same massive business failures in the Finance company and investment advice sectors that NZ has had and as always it will be Mr & Mrs Q Public paying the bill and losing their shirts.
The Good Bits
1. There has NEVER EVER BEEN a Better Time to be selling the Ability to Make Money because people Have to Listen NOW!
2. There are More great Opportunities in Nearly Every Area you can think of as Long As YOU Know What to do and How to Take Advantage of it, in other words If you have the Knowledge, Skills and the Balls to take the Appropriate Action.
3. More than Ever those That Can Stand out as LEADERS will Be In great Demand to Lead the others... So Make sure You Are a LEADER worth Following.
4. The Way Of Doing Business has Totally changed and Those that can Master these New ways Will Become Super Wealthy-So if You know how to work this way and can coach others to do it TOO then you will be very very popular RIGHT NOW.
5. It is no Longer about the "HOW to Do Something" as it has been for the last 9 years Now it Is all about "What To Do"
6. Systems are the Coolest and Hottest Thing right Now....So you gotta think "What Can I Do To Get A Piece Of The Action Today?"
7. You can No Longer work alone you MUST Partner with Others to Stay alive and to Thrive...
Stay Tuned as I reveal How You can become part what I consider the Most Exciting way for You to Stay ahead of the herd and what You Must do to get Involved.
