Message from Joan:
Are you having as hard a time as I am keeping up with all of the
content-filled emails that arrive every day? I wind up not reading most
of them. 

So to make things easier, starting with the next issue of Prosperity
Tips, I'm going to be offering Quick Tips instead. Just a few
paragraphs with helpful info that you can use right away to move you
closer to a new financial identity. 

I'm also setting up a blog that I'll be announcing in a week or two.
Stay tuned.

Creating Prosperity In the Midst of the Downturn

I've had enough of the gloom and doom talk that permeates the airwaves
these days. There's no doubt about the fact that lots of people are
hurting financially. But that doesn't mean that everyone has to
suffer.

What I see now is opportunity. Here are some facts:

• Saving money and simplifying are the new trends.
• Millions of people still need goods and services in order to live
  their lives. 
• Find a way for people to get what they need want while saving
  money or simplifying, and you'll have something to offer them. 

I was talking to a friend who has an online business. He had his
best quarter ever last month--and he sells medium to high-priced
services. 

Another friend sells used books online and is doing extremely well. Like
my firends, you can find the gold that lies beneath the gloom. 

There are lots of opportunities if you look at the trends. Think about
products or services that offer

• Self-health care
• Ways for people to save time or money
• Methods for recycling stuff
• Going green
• Proven ways to comfortably simplify
• Group projects that connect people and help them save time or money

You just have to be open and willing to get beyond the gloom and doom
and start looking for potentially positive outcomes--whatever you are
doing. If you are open to them, they will be there.

Yes, you might have to make some adjustments in the way you've been
debting or spending. And that's a good thing. You'll learn more about
money management and how to build wealth.

I hope you'll be one of the people who decides to use this time as a
signal for positive change, and that you are willing to join me in
stepping beyond the gloom and doom. 

A good guide for this is my book Build Your Money Muscles

Enthusiasm for the New Shame CD

People have been telling me that the new CD Healing Your Financial Shame
is really helping them move to a new level. 

Jody D. from Dallas said:
"I've been waiting for something like this. You sure do get to the
core of this issue and after just one listening to the audio, I can
already see things that have been holding me back--and I had no idea
what was going on. Your suggestions for healing the shame are terrific.
Thanks for doing this."

Since shame is one of the main feelings that people act out through the
gloom and doom dramas, this is a good time to give the audio a try.
(Available as a CD or MP3 download.)
