Day 34

A love story that is worth telling :)

My parents (mom and stepdad) were both visiting at Christmas. We had a great time in between dinner and packing out presents on Christmas Eve I had a conversation with my stepdad and I asked him how my mom and him met.

He told me a great story about the two of them and coincidence which I wanted to share here:

Apparently my mother and my stepfather were dating long time before I was even planned. They had dated for 2 years when my stepfather found out that my mom was only 16 years old, making her 14 years old when they first started dating. Well, my stepfather was already 19 and so mad about the lie that they had broken up. My mother moved away shortly after this which happened in 1972.

Both of them went their own ways, my mother chose a not so good path while my stepfather got married to a woman who died in 2001 of cancer.

My stepfather said that in all this time he always had wondered what and how my mom was doing but he never saw her again.

About a year later - in 2002 - my moms stepfather who was still living in the same area had called him one night in a drunken stage lol and told him he had seen my mom and they should call each other.

My stepfather being unsure about this idea since they had not seen each other for 30 years he laid off the plan of calling her for a couple of days when one night the phone rang and my mom was on the line. He said his heart was pounding so hard that he did not know what to say.

My mom again had the idea for both of them to meet the following weekend so she gave him her work phone number for him to call when he got close to the city she was living in which is about 4 hours away.

He said when he finally made it to my home town he pulled up on the side of the road trying to call her for 2 full hours but nobody ever answered the phone. He already had thought that my mom blew him off and he started feeling awful. As he was on his way back home he decided to pull over just one more time right outside town and give it another try to call her.

This time someone really answered the phone. When he asked for my mom the lady on the other end said that he had called a hotel and that she was working there but there was no female with that name. My stepdad finally being completely discouraged was about to hang up the phone when that lady asked him what his name was. When he told her the name she replied that he had called a hotel room that was reserved in his name. My stepfather was stunned since he did not know anything about a hotel room.

She said, that she kept hearing the phone ring in the hotel room for ever but was not sure if she should answer it. After so long she told her boss that it must be a very important phone call and decided to answer the phone.

She quickly told him where the hotel was located and hung up the phone. My stepfather turned around still being unsure about the situation driving back into town when my mom called him and asked him where he was. She was mad because he never called lol

...coming to find out my stepfather had mistakenly switched the last two digits of the phone number which miracly turned up to be the phone number for the hotel room my mom had reserved for him without his knowledge lol

Needless to say this time the age difference did not matter and they both got married quickly living happily ever after :)

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!

Hello everyone,

I wish all of you and your families a MERRY MERRY MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!

Day 28...I am still here :)

Just wanted to let everyone know that I am still here. I have been having a severe Sinus Infection. It has gotten to the point that I could not even look at a TV screen or computer screen without hurting. My entire head seemed to be infected and my head felt like it will explode anytime soon.

My biggest fear was that I might have had to get a surgery if my sinuses won't clear up but luckily it has gotten better.

I took pretty much the rest of the week off trying to get better. I did check my emails but that's all I was able to do.

I still have a bit pain on the right of my face but this is not as bad anymore. I managed to buy all Christmas presents so I am ready for Christmas :)

I am starting to catch up on everything I needed and need to do now :)

Will keep you posted...

Day 23

Today was not such a good day. After barely no sleep all night because my head was hurting I finally went to the doctor and was told that I have a severe sinus infection.

Everything is clocked up. I went straight to the Police Station and turned in my sick slip.

The sick call was supposed to be until monday, 22nd but my son and I are invited to the Christmas Party of the local MP Station on friday so I told the doctor that thursday will be fine, too.

I can't really concentrate as I am writing this. It seems to be a pain just looking at the computer screen. The Conference Call will be in 30 minutes and after that I'm off to bed :(

I am not even getting mad anymore lol just wondering what will be next lol

Day 22, First day of Week 4

On sunday night and this morning I spent hors going through whitepages and emailing business owners. I think I have emailed about 120 business owners. I was so mad about getting sick that I decided to email them until my fingers fall off lol

From all the businesses I contacted 2 have replied. I called one of them and had a very nice conversation with the owner. I also followed up with him and he seems very excited about MPM. He said he has to wait until the 1st before he can sign up for a World Changer Mall. I did tell him thst he could start with a Business Mall and already earn on his Christmas shopping. I hope he will :)

I also called about 15 leads today, most of them were not interested, hang up the phone or had given the wrong phone number but one nice lady from Texas seemed that she wanted to know more after I mentioned that we also support Non Profit Organizations. Unfortunately she has a dial up internet connection and she could not view the presentation due to her internet speed and broken speakers but I sent her an email explaining the most important parts about MPM.

I am going to call her back on saturday and I hope she will have been able to look at our site by then. She said that she had supported a Non Profit Organization for 28 years I believe.

It's kind of frustrating that most people don't want to give you a minute to listen or don't even open your emails but thinking back I have not been the nicest person either when a telemarketing company called me. Now I feel a bit different about it :)

Anyways, this is all I have done today, still hoping to receive some more response from the emails I had sent out but we will see.

Good night everyone :)

Day 21 and now I am mad as #$&%!!!

I try to laugh about it but I just can't. The things that have happened to me are becoming just so ridicilous I could just jump out of my body lol

This time I am sick!!! I'm not sure if my body is taking the toll of this weeks lack of sleep or if something is just messing with me lol If you knew me then you'd know that I USUALLY NEVER get sick. I wrote usually because as you can read I am sick now. I have the flue and am forced to lay in bed. The last time I had the flue was three or four years ago. That's how good of an imune system I usually have.

I had planned to make this such a busy weekend calling businesses left and right but with the voice I have this is impossible. I sound like I went out drinking three nights in a row lol

I know not to have negative thoughts and I don't have them unless somthing ridicilous like this crosses my plans again. I know I am sooo far behind, barely have any phone numbers to follow up with, barely have any prospects left and no matter what I start with so much enthusiasm it gets turned down within the shortest time. I feel like my written words on the internet are kind of like invisible to others.

I even purchased leads from LeadBackOffice (thats what they are called I think) yesterday since I could not call anyone. I wrote a nice email to the leads and received NO RESPONSES what-so-ever!!! I am not sure if it's because of the subject line, or the email itself or the fact that I did not call them before emailing but I can't call with the voice I have right now.

Ok, at least I could write down my frustration lol Now, I have to wait until the voice is much better again and then start all over again contacting a hundred people every day if I have to lol

Day 19 and I am ashamed :(

Have you noticed that I have not a blog titel saying "day 18"? Because yesterday was my first day that I have not made it to a Conference Call, the first day I have not updated my blog or sent in a report, and I feel so ashamed of it.

No matter how hard I tried to stay up last night I just could not do it. Three nights in a row without any sleep was just too much, I was exhausted. My husband said he had heard my alarm clock and tried to wake me but I just would not get up. To be honest I am so mad at myself because I have told myself before the beginning of boot camp that I WILL NEVER miss a single day and I did :(

When my husband went off to bed I stayed on the couch, placing my phone and alarm clock next to me. I had set it to 1.50 am but never heard it go off.

I apologize for not doing anything yesterday. I was at our Police Stations Christmas Party and had to sit there until the official part was over which again was too late for the 8 am morning call.

I am aware that I have a lot of catching up to do this weekend and hope I won't let anyone down again. I know the requirements and understand if I would not be allowed to participate anymore but this week was tough with work, all the Christmas Parties coming up and the late night conference calls I just had no more energy :(

Be back for an update...

Day 17 of the World Changer Reality Boot Camp

I am working the streets today again so I generally won't be able to talk to people :(

Update: My name is Gueler, I live in Germany and I am proud to say that I am one of the few International members in this boot camp. Why do I say this? Because even though we all see the potential of My Power Mall on american ground we have not deared to look at it from the perspective what My Power Mall can do world wide. Yes, it is a bit tougher to succeed from the "outside" but it is possible. All you need to do is improvise.

You can't contact people in your local area because of the language barrier? Go through Yellowpages and call people or businesses in the US asking if you might have the permission to send them an email until we have found a solution to translate MPM in other languages. Or create a free webpage in your own language about the important parts of My Power Mall and send all possible leads to your free website. Or advertise on websites targetting US people. There are so many possibillities!

Being an International member only means that you are not physically living in the US but with the internet generation it really doesn't make a difference.

Being an International member does have one advantage though:

Once MPM is available in your language you will be already prepared to - even more - expand your business and be one of the first in your country.

No matter what country you live in it always is and will be possible to succeed with My Power Mall and with this said I'm going off to bed after the late night conference call :)

Day 16 and still strong!!!

Today was one of those days again. Somehow I feel something is trying really really hard for me to fail with this boot camp. Why? Because thinking of the past 5 years it NEVER snowed that early in winter, it NEVER snowed that bad twice in a row within two weeks, it was NEVER that cold. This "Something" knows I HAVE to leave the house in order to approach people personally which I can't do at home, of course. Now, i am stuck in the house again. I had to work all day until 9.30 pm and I just now made it home at 11 pm. You should know that it usually takes me three minutes to get to work.

Next example: My phone NEVER went out in the past I don't know how long BUT it went out three times since the start of the boot camp, once at exactly 8 am when I was dialing in to the conference call and another time 5 minutes before the conference call forcing me to stand outside in the cold.

And if that is not bad enough my internet went out along with my phone. Yesterday that happened for 5 hours straight. I don't understand the world anymore. It really makes me feel like something just does not want me to succeed or do what I need to do in order to stay part of the boot camp.

Let me be honest: I have not made any contacts today, all I could do was placing some advertisement online while being at work. I worked from noon til 11 pm and will have to stay up until 2 am to attend the afternoon conference call. Then I have to get up at 7 am to get my son to school. And the same tomorrow again!

Oh boy, something really is trying to give me a hard time lol

I wish I could tell you a success story for today but karma is not on my side lately lol

Talk to everyone soon :)

Day 15 of the World Changer Reality Boot Camp

Today was a decent day for me. I have contacted my 5 people and actually 2 more while I was shopping for Christmas. Even though it's not becoming any easier for me I at least did not hear a no this time. They all seemed to be very interested and I will follow up with them this week.

Speaking of following up: I have called the numbers I have received. Many of them were not correct but the ones I get to talk to have not been able to take a look at the website. So I will follow up on them, too. I have a list of people who seem to be real prospects and I will work that list down.

I was sooo mad at one point when I got home and picked up the phone for the 8 am call. The phone AND my internet both went out at exactly 5pm which was 8 am PST. I really thought is this bad karma??? lol So I ran downstairs to my friend again and used her phone to attend the call. I just can't believe it happened right when I was dialing in!!!

The call was very interesting. Linda (Ginnys friend) pretty much said exactly what I was thinking about the Local Merchant Program. It's just so easy to understand and there should be no reason at all not to have one's business listed in the local mall but then when I try to tell a business owner about it, they completely block everything without even giving me a chance to explain anything. This really makes me upset!

We truly are still Under Construction and I am ready for the new week :)

Day 14 and still here :)

Today is sunday, december 7th, 2008, day 14 of boot camp. I am getting ready for work here soon. Since I don't have a baysitter and my husband is also working I have to take my son with me to the station. Poor child! I will see if I can take his playstation with us as well so he won't become too bored.

I just received a comment from Joanne. I read her blog post and I so understand what she is talking about encouraging us not to give up. What if Ginny would have given up? Can we imagine the pressure she has? There is no way I will give up even though it gets very hard sometimes. This is just so not me going up to strangers and talk to them. I have no problem to do this when being on duty for some reason. I am an outgoing friendly person but all the circumstances around me just make it so hard to talk to others about My Power Mall.

Yesterday was the first and only day I didn't blog. I went out on friday night with a friend and did not get home until early in the morning lol Oh boy, did I have a headache when I woke up lol

Tomorrow will be a new day and I can't wait to attend the conference call. Have to get ready now, be back blogging soon :)

Day 12 of My Power Mall World Changer Reality Boot Camp

I just got back home from work. I had A LOT to do today. A small shoplifting case turned out to be more than I thought - 4 counts of shoplifting, theft and fraud. Had to even stay longer to finish the reports. Today I could not work the business due to work.

I only had this morning to advertise a bit. My husband called 15 businesses today while I was gone and he received one email address. I just now sent out an email to that business owner.

Sorry for keeping it so short today but I will be back tomorrow :)

Good Night everyone!!!

Day 12 of My Power Mall World Changer Reality Boot Camp

YouTube is really wrecking my nerves. It is 10.06 am right now and I have been sitting here since 8 am trying to make this work. It just won't upload my video and it's driving me crazy!!!

Ok, day 12 and I already think I am running out of time. I'm trying my hardest not to panick and not let any doubts come up. I have to work today from 12.30 pm until 9.30 pm which means I will miss the 8 am call which also means I will have a long night ahead of me to attend the 5 pm call.

I keep telling myself this is MY business I am working which helps me a lot because in order for my business to work I have to WORK my business.

I have sent an email to both business contacts I mentioned in my last update. One of them gave me a fake email address and the email bounced back, the second one was real at least. I also emailed more merchants I found in the whitepages so I am hoping to receive any responses from that.

I wish everyone success today and I will be back updating again later on tonight :)

Day 11 update...

I have had a decent day, still not being able to leave the house I just started calling businesses asking for permssion to send an email but this time I changed the approach a bit. When a business owner answered the phone (in many cases the phone number was not up-to-date on whitepages.com) I explained him that we had launched a Business Partnership Program and that we had over 140.000 shoppers eager to see their local stores participate.

Well, from 15 business owners two of them gave me their email address which is much better than yesterday. Yesterday we had called over 30 business owners and none would give us an email address. So, I am getting all the information together and will send them an email in hopes of response :)

I also placed some advertising online and called two more people from my warm market but I ran out of contacts now :( They both said they will take a look but I will call them back on saturday.

I have spent all day - just like every day - working "my business" researching online, going through whitepages, re-doing my blog theme, placing ads, calling people, messing with YouTube which wont let me upload my video (I dont see how they became such a popular site, it takes forever to upload a video and then it won't even work) I sure hope my efforts will pay off one day :)

Well, its time for me to lay down again, tomorrow will be a busy day for me!

Good night everybody :)

Ginny, below roses are for you, get well soon :)

Day 11 of My Power Mall World Changer Reality Boot Camp

ok, this is a new day, new adventure, new everything only the snow stayed which is old news. It is almost 11 am and I have spent all morning re-doing my blogger template to fit the theme. Christmas is coming soon and I already have my tree up so I figured I also get a Christmas theme here :)

What I am going to do today is contacting Non Profits within the military and letting them know that I'd like to support them financially once I raised funds during the boot camp. Sounds good?

I wanted to appreciate all the help and suggestions I received from Jacki and all all other boot campers during last night's Conference Call (well it was the 8 am call), it sure gave me hope and opened new perspectives for me.

Ginny, if you read this, I hope you feel well soon, WE NEEEEEED YOU!!!! lol

ok, be back soon updating again :)

...still Day 10 and almost ready to go to bed :)

ok, the idea of calling "local" businesses was not so good. We called at least thirty business owners, from Gift Stores to Clothing Stores and more. With "we" I mean my husband and my best friends daughter - Tina - who worked successfully in the sales business before. I asked them for help because I thought maybe I was doing something wrong.

When I asked Tina to make some calls for me she was very motivated and pretty much said that it was a piece of cake for her but after she was turned down several times she said "that really hurt" lol so I told her "See, what I'm going through". She said she never thought she was going to take it to heart but it really hurt her the way she received those answers. She said "I feel like calling her back and telling her a piece of my mind" lol I really had to laugh, it was funny the way she said it.

Back to contacting business owners: All I did was ask for permission to send an email with more info after I explained that I was working with My Power Mall which is a division of "Together We Can Change the World". I asked if they could use more customers and told them that we just launched a Business Partnership Program. That's all! Not one email address, nothing, nada, nix!

About half of the people did not even listen more than 5 seconds and all others either said straight up no or just hung up the phone. All my enthusiasm was gone for today.

Todays morning call helped me out a bit though, gave me more ideas to focus on different directions which I will do first thing in the morning. I have no other choice but contacting people by phone or email, it is still snowing!!!

I am sorry I had no positive experiences to share, I really am doing the best I can :( It makes me so mad that I don't seem to succeed with anything I do and I wish I had something positive to tell but hopefully tomorrow? :)

Day 10...am I ready? No! Do I have to do this? Yes!

First off, I wanted to say Thank You, Frank, for the nice comment you sent :) I hope you will read this since I have no way of replying to you! Yes, I remember you from the old days and I hope you will stay in touch...send me an email or something :)

Ok, I got up this morning determined that I will approach 10 people today just because I miserably failed yesterday and when I looked out the window I was shocked: EVERYTHING covered with snow and still snowing!!! Oh my God, what is going on???
I was really thinking for a minute not to take my son to school but I did not want him to miss a single day if not necessary. I knew I could not leave with my car having summer tires so I decided to call a Taxi.

Right before I grabbed the phone my upstairs neighbour walked past me taking her children to school. She offered me to also take my son, thank God, I thought.

There is no way I can leave the house today. Now, don't think I am making up excuses but if anyone knows Baumholder then they know it's nothing but hills. Baumholder is also called "The Rock" and that for good reasons. When riding along taking the kids to school there were cars stuck all over the place. We barely made it to school and on the way back we almost got stuck, too. Luckily she also offered me to pick my son back up!

I am really mad now and since I can't leave the house I decided to do following:
Today, after my husband gets home, we are going to call "local" businesses left and right asking them for permission to send them an email about something that might help their business.

I hope this will make a difference and I will keep you posted on this!

...update on day 9

Today was a bad day for me, actually the worst I had since beginning of boot camp. I feel like I just want to crawl in a whole and hide from the rest of the world. I have nooo idea how in the world the entire world seemed to be against me. I have been blown off several times today, that never happened before. I feel like I had something bad written on my forehead.

The first 2 people I approached at the PX listened to what I had to say but when asking for any information they both refused to give them to me. The third person - a female - told me straight up that all online businesses are scams and that she did not want to have anything to do with it.

After I finally received a young ladies information I went over to the clothing department because my son needed some sweaters and when I asked another lady there, if she would give me her name and phone number after I had told her that I was attending a World Changer Reality Boot Camp she just looked at me, said no and kept walking. That's it I thought, I'm going home and hide :(

After this horrible day, as this was not enough, 2 minutes before the Conference Call my phone line went out!!! I was so ready to just freak out so I ran downstairs to my best friends house and asked her if I could use her phone. Unfortunately the signal did not reach out far enough so I was standing outside in the hallway freezing so I wouldn't miss the Conference Call which was - like always - very encouraging and helpful to me. Thanks Ginny and Jacki, you guys are the BEST!

I followed up on the leads I collected yesterday, sent them all an email yesterday and will call them tomorrow since my phone did not work. I am so horrible in following up. I dont know what's worse, approaching a person or following up with them. When I called my leads I collected last week, I either had a wrong phone number or the person had not looked at the site yet or wasn't interested in what MPM could do for them. At least none of the emails I sent out bounced back so I think they are more comfortable giving out an email address than a phone number.

Well, at least I got to buy the Christmas Cards for the 3 soldiers and I am sending them out tomorrow first thing in the morning :)

Good Night fellow boot campers and oh, I wanted to congratulate all of you for the success you been having! Way to Go!!!

Morning of Day 9...yuck!!!

it is 8.15 am here and I can't believe it's snowing again. This really is driving me crazy. My son of course was really happy about it but every human being with a car and a drivers license knows exactly how much I hate snow. It's beautiful on the sidewalks and everywhere else but not on the streets!!!

The worst part is that I still have summer tires and to be honest I can't affort winter tires at the time. Today is supposed to be my husbands pay day and all he received is a little over $ 900...COLA went down. For those who don't know what COLA is it is the difference they pay between Euro and Dollar to match it up. So if the dollar goes up COLA goes down and vice versa.

So within 2 weeks he went down almost $ 300 from $ 1200 to $ 900 and this right before Christmas!!! This is frustrating. I think I have to contact 10 people every day now to make up for the loss :)

I just received a Comment from Lil' Bro who must be a soldier as well. He asked me for a favor to send three soldiers a Christmas Card and I think this is doable :) I copied and pasted his comment below. Please, if anyone has some Christmas Cards to spare, please send them a card as well.

Ok, I will be back for my second update. I have to write 2 a day since everybody else is asleep when I write my first post everyday lol

How much more worse can it get if you have to send yourself a Christmas Card???

Hey Girl!!! I know you can do this!! I have a favor to ask? Can you and some of your friends send Christmas cards to these 3 guys in Afghanistan, No one has written them and one guy sent himself a letter!

Day 8/Week 2....Update on the World Changer Reality boot Camp

Week 2 has started and I still dont' have any sign ups :( It is kind of frustrating and upsetting at the same time. Sometimes I think, do people really not see the good in this Business? I mean My Power Mall is much more than just a business opportunity. Those who want to earn on their own shopping can sign up for a free Personal Mall. Those a bit more serious about the Business part have the option to choose from either a free Business Mall or a low fee World Changer Mall.

Why do people not see this? It can't hurt anyone to own a Mall for whatever purpose they sign up for. It truly is a great way to raise funds for charities and NPO's I just don't get how people don't see this. And it seems to be the majority of people.

This is the way I think sometimes.

I called my only World Changer Mall owner - Trina - today and talked to her over the phone for a while actually (follow up :) She told me that they have time until End of this month to come up with the lease money or they will be homeless. What kind of a New Year would that be?
This puts even more pressure on me. I NEED her to succeed with My Power Mall. I know I said I NEED and WANT to succeed but she needs it more than I do. I, at least, will have a roof over my families head and I really don't want her to loose her home.

I made my 5 contacts today but - again - couldnt go outside because my son has gotten sick. When I started feeling the pressure in my stomache that I still had to contact 5 more people I called my warm market and they all agreed to take a look at the presentation. I sure pray to God they will :)

I told them: "Hey, how are you doing today? How was Thanksgiving? Oh, by the way, the reason I'm calling is that I need you to do me a favour. I am attending a Reality Boot Camp with 24 other lucky participants chosen out of tens of thousands of applicants and I am required to personally contact 5 people every day. We want to prove to over 140.000 members and even more internet users that it is very much possible to earn $ 2000/Month in just 60 days! Would you be interested in taking a look at my website and the presentation? (By that time they only hear the number "2000" and the word "dollars" )

See, this part seems the easy part but asking strangers for name, phone number (especially phone number) and email address is what gets me. I still can't do it. Or i can't do it right! I am having such a hard time with this it's driving me crazy. I mean my warm market was easy. I called them so I already had phone number and name and when I said "Let me send you the info through email" they agreed but thats people I already know.

Soon I will be running out of my warm market (which I only use in case of an emergency when I CAN'T leave the house) and I still have to admit that I am still not good at what I do. The boot camp already proceeded to follow up which is kind of step 2 to me but I am still stuck in Step 1 because I seem to be my biggest problem!

Good Night Folks :)

Day 7 holy sunday of the World Changer Reality Boot Camp

This will be a quick update. Today was a very quiet day for some reason, no hundreds of emails in my Inbox, no phone calls, nothing!

Since I could not leave the house today thanks to masses of snow blocking the roads I decided to market a bit online. I know we have learned to take My Power Mall offline and locally but since I couldn't leave today I was itching just to do something. As I stated before I NEED and WANT to succeed and I get this bad feeling in my stomache if I just have one single day doing nothing!

If any of you have not read my last update please know my offer for a free subdomain is still up. I can add unlimited subdomains so why not offer them to people who could use them. Just send me a comment with your desired name and I will add it to the list of subdomains :)

Well, time to fix dinner now and getting my son ready for bed. Tomorrow is a new day for all of us contacting 5 more people. I will be on the 8 am call. Talk to the Boot Camp family later :)

...back again and updating Day 6 :)

...this is a quick update on my day 6 :)

After writing my first part for today I became kind of depressed so I left the house and wouldn't you know I made a contact today. I did not get his phone number or email address but he sure sounded interested for his wife who had been looking for a work at home business for a while and will be more than happy to take a look.

Well, I don't know if she will give it a look but I am just glad I approached someone. I am always happy when I "get it over with" lol I mean the talking to a stranger part. I like the feeling afterwards lol

Since I had no professional invitation cards (I ordered them) I used my old flyers for MPM and just wrote the new Foundation Mall address on the back.

Oh, speaking of this: I have my own domain http://www.my-powermall.net/ which allows me to have unlimited sub-domains.

I already added http://www.worldchangermall.my-powermall.net/ for my new Foundation Mall but if anyone needs a Sub URL such as http://www.yourname.my-powermall.net/ then please let me know, write a comment here or something.

I own the domain for 2 more years that gives anyone plenty of time to use the subdomain :)

ok, its 12.25 am time to get to sleep :)

WOW, it's been 6 days since the start of the boot camp and for some reason I feel I have not accomplished what I was supposed to accomplish yet :( that's why I will go out today and talk to more people encourage them to make a difference in the World.

Wouldn't that be so nice if the entire world would take part of our vision? I mean EVERYBODY starting World Changer Malls and supporting other Non Profits while becoming finacially free? Wouldn't that be great if children already get taught that in order to live a happy life they must be committed to helping others once they grow up and become adults? Just like we all have learned that we must maintain a job in order to feed our family it should be mandatory to teach children these days that they must also help others once they are released to the "adult part of todays Society"?

Our families number one Rule is that don't expect others to help you when you don't help others. As soon as you ask my son what our number one rule is that is exactly what he will tell you. I preached this to him every single day. It starts with small things like unloading the dishwasher and will never find an end, only expand to outside the house.

Last week he came home from school with this look in his eyes as he had done something wrong. When I asked him he started crying and told me he gave his sandwich bread to his classmate. Surprised as I was, I asked him why he was crying then which he replied that I had always told him that there are so many children in this world starving to death and if I ever were to catch him not eating his bread or throwing it away he would be in double-trouble. He said, that his classmate was very hungry and his mother had not fixed a lunch box for him so he gave him his bread.

My eyes lid up and I smiled and hugged him forever telling him he did everything right. He had not realized that he exactly did what I always wanted him to do: help others. My son was only worried because all he saw was that he did not eat his sandwich bread lol

Just the other day I sat down and tried to remember more of my child hood and I clearly remember how I always imagined that we live in a world with no poor people. I used to cry over this when I was little because I was worried I could not find a single spot in this world that would fit my dream and therefore I couldnt' ever find a place I could call my home one day. It's kind of weird how I thought as a child lol but I did and can't denie that I did!

To be honest I am worried I won't be able to reach the goal in this boot camp. I'm already having head aches thinking about this all day long. I know I MUST succeed, not for myself but more for the people around me, my family and friends. I am not only scared of rejection when approaching people personally, I am also already thinking a couple of steps ahead and am worried that those people who actually will sign up for the World Changer Mall will call me a fraud or scam if they do not experience the success for whatever reason or excuse they might have. I think this is my biggest fear, walking through my hometown and people will point at me saying that I "dragged" them in a home business and all they did was pay but never made a dime. Even though it might be their fault for not succeeding due to lack of interest, motivation or work but I know how humans are, always tend to blame others.

I am not giving up - no worries - I am just thinking until my head hurts and then I start thinking all over again lol, it's a mind game and I need to find my way out of this :(

I like this blog thing for some reason, now not only I know what I'm thinking the entire world knows, too lol

...be back for my next update :)

Day 4 or Day 5??? Im confused lol

Do we count yesterday? Is it day 4 or day 5 of boot camp? I don't know. I also have no idea what the beans are they have been talking about on today's call, I have not received mine yet. I just took 5 plastic balls out of my son's toybox and thought I could use those until my beans come in.

To be honest I am kind of exhausted, worked on Thanksgiving for a couple of hours, rushed home to fix Thanksgiving dinner and by time I went to bed it was already past midnight. My alarm clock rang at 5.45 am, had to go back to work all day until 4 pm which left me an hour until today's 8 am morning call.

But, I have a confession to make: Even though I just now got my first World Changer Mall sign up, I kind of cheated :( I upgraded for my sign up.

The reason for this is that the lady I know is so sweet and honest. Her name is Trina, she lives in the States and she will be evicted from her house in less than two weeks if she does not come up with the lease money. I have been knowing her for a while, never met her personally but I read her blog posts on another website. Even though she is selling her novels (If you like novels, I added her ad below) and I bought one she could not raise enough money to save her house. So I have been breaking my head what else I could do to help her.

After I was accepted to the boot camp I had the idea to include her but since she was very broke I told her to sign up for a Business Mall and I was to upgrade for her to a World Changer Mall and help her get sign ups.

I know this is not what we learned in the boot camp but I had no other choice, I have to help her so she does not end up living on the street. If I had the money to pay for her house I would have done so in a heart beat but as of now I don't have the financials for it...yet :)

Ok, I have to go and make my contacts for today, next update wil be coming soon...promise :)

...update on my Day 3 of the My Power Mall World Changer Reality Boot Camp

My day is over for today, it's 12.30 at night and I am very tired. Tomorrow is Thanksgiving but I still have to work for a couple of hours before I get to enjoy the day.

I don't know why this is so hard on me, I mean approaching strangers! Even though I did get to talk to 3 people, even received their phone numbers I just am not sure if this will take me to the success I am hoping for.

I first ran to the german store to get some champaign for tomorrow. Before I left I took some "home made" invitation cards with me lol My son - as nosy as he is - asked me about the cards and I explained him that I will talk to 5 people today and them the card. He was more excited about than I was! He asked me if he could hand out the cards and asked me what to say. Well, I said, I am raising funds for your College so aks the person politely if you can hand him out an invitation card and if he asks why then tell him that your mom is raising funds for your college. If he has more questions, just call me and I talk to him.

My son was so excited about it, it even gave me the courage to walk up to anybody today. At the parking lot of the german store I approached a father who was shopping with his two daughters. He did not give me his information but he took my card at least.

But when I walked into the commissary my courage left me. I think today was the wrong day to talk to anyone. Everybody was running around like chickens with the head cut off lol Being in such a hurry the entire store seemed to be in a bad mood buying stuff in a hurry for Thanksgiving. So, I have to confess that I did not talk to anyone there at all. I also told my son that he would be able to do this next time...what a shame :(

After the store I ran home to attend the 8 am conference call and fix dinner afterwards. My husband asked me what was wrong with me today and I told him that I wasn't sure if I could do all this. I was unhappy, really unhappy :(

To chear up I went to the bowling alley to play some slots. Yes, sometimes I just need to play my 1 cent machine lol and believe it or not, right there I gave another person an invitation card Wohoooo lol

Ok, I spent the rest of the night figuring out how to get my first video on YouTube. It took hours because it just did not want to upload my file. After downloading several useless Video File Converters I finally downloaded one that worked. So, below - finally - is the YouTube link to my Video of the day I received the acceptance email. The quality is not so good due to file conversion but at least I finally have one up lol gosh that took forever!!!

Everyone have a great night and HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!

Day 3 of the My Power Mall World Changer Reality Boot Camp

...or should I say day 2 still? lol Since I am 9 hours ahead I really have to stop and think for a second what day of the boot camp I am on lol

It is 2 pm and I still haven't been able to leave the house to approach my 5 people for today. After doing homeworks with my son I had to force myself to start claeaning up the house, no energy today for some reason. But tomorrow is Thanksgiving and I am preparing a 22 pound turkey, greenbean casserole and gravy for about 15 people who are invited for Thanksgiving which will be in my sisters house next door lol

My sister and I live in the same housing building, 2nd stairwell, I live on the left she lives on the right. I guess she never ever dreamed of this scenario having her older mean sister live right next to her watching every step she is doing lol
It's my little sister, she is 23 years of age, also married to a US Soldier who is currently serving in Iraq and she just gave birth to a wonderful little boy named Roberto 5 months ago.

Oh boy, that boy has some attitude but he is sooo cute I could put some ketchup on his bold head and eat him up lol

Anyways, back to the boot camp: I have a looong day ahead of me, right after cleaning I have to run to the grocery store - again! Even though my best friend bought the turkey for me since I had to work yesterday she decided to buy a 22 pound turkey and an aluminum pan that holds turkeys up to 20 pounds...hmmm lol I asked her if the pan wasn't a bit too small which she replied with a big laugh and "oooops" lol

So, I'm going to clean, run to the store, hopefully have the courage to approach my 5 people, run back, fix the casserole, attend the conference call, follow up with the people I approached, fix dinner, update this blog, work online, spend some time with my husband since it's our 3rd anniversary and work some more online....yep, I have planned my entire day today....gots to go lol

Day 2 still working on it :)

Even though it actually sounds very easy to just have to talk to 5 people about My Power Mall it isn't easy at all :(

I don't know why I have this "barrier" inside of me that gives me a weird feeling in my stomache when I just think about that and how I personally approach a person. I know I have to learn to get over this and keep contacting 5 people every day but boy is that hard lol

I think it's because I first think about what this person might say or that this person is not interested anyways. I did - again - jump over my shadow and actually talked to 5 people today but I am really not sure if anyone of them had any interest. The first person started rolling his eyes and said online businesses are all scams anyways and the second person seemed interested but only because he was running a home business himself which I didn't know and he seemed like he wanted me to sign up for his business lol

The other three females I saw in a store today did listen but I can't really tell if they only listened to be polite? I am without a clue.

I honestly am starting to have big respect for sales men and women, how in the world they do this and be so good at it?

After talking to the 5 people i had to work and being on duty is a totally different situation. It is almost impossible to talk about My Power Mall while being on duty to ensure the integrity of a police officer. Being on duty and professional as I am I am having a even harder time to talk to anyone about My Power Mall.

I missed today's morning call because I was working but I am currently waiting for tonights call at 2 am, maybe take a two hour nap before :)

The adventure continues...

for reading :)

Day 1 progress going slow

Here is a quick update on my day 1 progress before I go to bed :)

Well, since day 1 started for most participants early in the morning but for me at 5 pm I really did not have much time to talk to other people but tomorrow is another day :)

I did get to talk to two people but I am not sure if they were interested. It's so hard to get others excited about something so good even though I personally am more than excited about it.

I told my husband all about the bootcamp, he hopefully will help me a bit here and there :)

Good Night Folks, talk to all of you amazing people tomorrow :)

The actual Day 1 of the World Changer Reality Boot Camp with My Power Mall

Ok, today is the very first day of the actual bootcamp. I have been nervous all day long. Since I live in Germany the first call time was at 5 pm for me but 8 am PST. All day I have been breaking my head about what Ginny and Jacki might possibly tell us to do. By time the call started I had already fixed dinner and set up a complete quite environment so nothing, not a single noise, could disturb the first conference call.

We were told that we are recieving a package in the mail with 5 Magic Power Beans. Our every day first task will be reading the words on Magic Power Beans out loud.

The Words are:

MY MAGIC POWER BEANS

I hold in my hands the power to change my life.

I hold in my hands the power to create all that I envision.

I hold in my hands the ability to take the mundane and create baffling results.

I hold in my hands the ability to take 5 little beans and grow them into magnificent symbols of power.

I hold in my hands the ability to step beyond my fears and act with courage.
I hold in my hands the ability to draw people into my world because of the love and belief I have for them.

I hold in my hands the ability to create financial freedom for all that enter my life.
I hold in my hands the ability to CHANGE THE WORLD!

________________________

Today, I will plant my seeds.
Today, I will take action. Today, I will live my best life!

We have also learned about the Power of 5, meaning we are going to contact 5 people a day LOCALLY which will lead into one new World Changer a day times 5 days which again will lead into 5 new World Changers every week.

I am excited and nervous. Never been the perfect sales person, always am too shy or scared to actually approach a stranger but this is what I have to do - at least 5 times a day in my hometown Baumholder, Germany :)

The conference call was very exciting, hearing the numbers of possible earnings, and also eye opening to me:

"Even though My Power Mall is online, you will only succeed if you embrase it as a people business." - Ginny Dye

That's true but how do I do this? Well, I have to think outside the box and today I will be starting to contact people directly whether in a store or at a gas station. I have to personally approach 5 people right here in my hometown - I'm scared lol

Day 1 - here we go :)

Day 1 that will change my Life forever!

Here I am, accepted in the World Changer Bootcamp. One of the lucky 25 people who were selected. My first day of a different life, a different me I believe. I am happy, I truly am but I also am a bit worried if I do everything right, I mean after all this will determine my future. Will I be able to finally help others financially? Will I be able to have my son's dreams come true? Or even some of my dreams? I don't know but I am excited and feel honored to finally have been given a chance.

My new Foudation Mall can be found at http://www.mypowermall.com/biz/home/25318


You might now wonder what I am talking about, right? Well, I have been a proud My Power Mall member for exactly 16 months and 6 days, building my team and enjoying every moment of it. I have not only met great people, I made friends for life through My Power Mall and set a mile stone to financial success when I first joined.



I advertised, promoted, learned, helped and built my team day by day. I have received several checks from My Power Mall which I put in my son's Savings Account. But I was always waiting for a chance, that special one chance that millions of people are waiting for every day and when I opened my email account today and read that I was accepted I was speechless. I was accepted into the World Changer Bootcamp founded by Ginny Dye, CEO and Founder of My Power Mall. The Bootcamp is to prove over 100.000 My Power Mall members and even more internet users that it is very much possible to earn $2000 in 60 days. This is what the bootcamp is for. Thousands of My Power Mall members applied and 25 lucky people were selected in the first program of its kind, the World Changer Bootcamp.



We will receive daily one-on-one training with Ginny Dye and Jacki Varacalli and we will hold conference calls every day for 60 days. The goal is that all of us will be making at least $ 2000/month after or within the 60 days.



So, I would say, Let the journey begin and Let's get this started :) I will be updating this blog every single day so check back and read about the progress!
