Jennifer Lopez Did This To Create Wealth and Success

December 25, 2008

There is no denying that Jennifer Lopez is not only beautiful, but she is a brilliant Latina businesswoman.  Critics may criticize her relentless drive and determination, but Ms. Lopez is living life on her own terms and has created tremendous wealth, success and happiness as a mother, wife, actress, singer and brand.

Latina entrepreneurs should take note of some of the strategies Jennifer Lopez used to build her super stardom from dancer to mega-mogul and learn to implement them in their own businesses to achieve their own success.

1.) Jennifer Lopez clearly defined her brand and then crafted her image around her brand.  If you’ve ever seen pictures of Jennifer Lopez when she began her career as a dancer, she is barely recognizable as the superstar we love today.  Jennifer Lopez has strategically built her brand by crafting her image, choosing the “right” avenues to showcase her many talents and controlling her media appearances.  Jennifer has always stayed true to her brand.

2.) Jennifer Lopez knows what all successful Latina entrepreneurs know… always have multiple streams of income.  It is much easier to create a latina millionaire business if you have many revenue streams in your business, if you have 10 “mini” streams of income making eight-thousand dollars a month, you have a recession proof business generating one million dollars a year.

3.) Jennifer Lopez worked hard every single day and she never gave up, to her quitting wasn’t a choice, the only choice was success.  To develop your latina millionaire business you must work hard and be unstoppable in your pursuit of wealth and success.  Latina Millionaires develop the Latina Millionaires Mindset, because latina millionaires know what Jennifer Lopez knows…  success begins in your mind.

We’ve shared a few of the success strategies used by Jennifer Lopez and we hope you’ll implement them as well so you can build your own millionaire lifestyle business.  Build your brand, work hard and be unstoppable, create multiple streams of business revenue and most importantly develop a millionaire mindset.

Is Your Heart Helping You To Prosper Or Keeping You Poor?

Is Your Heart Helping You To Prosper Or Keeping You Poor?
by Heather Dominick
EnergyRICH® Entrepreneur Success Coach

Just the other day I was walking to the subway in my New York City neighborhood and just as I approached a woman walking the other way, I sneezed. “Bless you”, she said. “Thank you”, I answered, as we passed.

Neither of us stopped or even slowed down (it’s New York, after all), but I smiled. Such a simple gesture; such a powerful impact.

This is the energy of your heart in action, your fourth energy point.

Most tend to miss, ignore, deny and avoid the energy of our heart. Constantly. Especially when it comes to building business. Yet, it’s where your brightest light and your darkest demons reside. It can soar
you to triumph or crash you into terror.

I believe it’s pretty safe to say that we’ve all been hurt at one time or another. The hurt doesn’t damage you, what you do with it does. We close our heart for protection and end up harming ourselves in the
process: you overwork to feel better, leave your relationships before they leave you and limit your financial income to what you’ve been told you’re worth.

And if this lack of “heart healing” is going to show up anywhere - it will show up in your business. When you move an inspired idea into action through the birth of a business you are, in a way, wearing your heart on your sleeve. You are taking something that you feel so passionate about and moving into practical practice for the whole world to see. Some would say, “you better have tough skin; you better be ready for rejection.”

This is what I say:

Prepare to open your heart. Wide.

Perhaps you’ve heard the saying “Do unto others as you would have done unto you”. This is true. I like to take it a step further. You get what you give and it starts with the energy of your heart. If you want to
resolve your issues with food, volunteer at a soup kitchen. Looking for a love relationship? Celebrate the love relationships that are around you; embrace wedding invitations. Want more money in your business? Give some away. And do it with grace.

Because the REAL key to the energy of the heart is no attachment to what you’ll get for giving.Your entrepreneurial strength, not your weakness, is in your open-heartedness. True prosperity is partnered with a deep sense of inner-peace. When you commit to living through the energy of your heart and allowing this spirit to move through your business, all you’ll do is thrive.

Fear will never serve your business - Only Love.

Your EnergyRICH® Call To Action:

Here’s my coach’s challenge, if you’ll accept it:

Write down one thing you really desire to have happen for yourself in your business.

Now write down something connected to this desire that you can give.

Next, write down at least one name of someone that you can give to - even if the name is ’stranger’. Put this in action for at least one day.

Go for seven days and then thirty.

Email me the results.

Prince Charming Isn’t Coming!

September 6, 2008

prince-charming.jpg Prince Charming Isn’t Coming. Okay, let’s face it ladies many of you are depending on Prince Charming to come sweeping into your lives and rescue you right? Well, what if I told you he’s not coming? What then? I’ve met many women who have gone through a divorce (or not) and have had to start over financially,like myself, and they just don’t see themselves getting ahead. Many of these smart, talented women think they need to find “Prince Charming”, you know the guy that’s going to come into your life, fall madly in love with you, carry you off to the forest and you’ll live happily ever after and not worry about how to pay the bills ever again!

I find these same women are so desperate to find “their prince” that they are grateful for any man that will look twice at them. Why are you ladies selling yourself short? And what’s wrong with going out and creating the future that you desire and deserve?

Every one of you have the skills, knowledge, and expertise to create the income you deserve. Ladies, you need to have “out of the box” thinking, you need to become an entrepreneur. Check out these statistics:

According to the Center for Women’s Business Research, Women are starting businesses at twice the rate of men. Women make or influence over 80% of all purchases in America. Currently there are over 10.6 million women-owned businesses employing 19.1 million people and generating $2.5 trillion in sales.

How powerful is that? Now if all those women did it, so can you. All of you ladies can go out and create the life and the business that you want. Just think how much more attractive you’ll look to Prince Charming when he does arrive at your door … you, the princess with the six-figure income business living the life of her dreams. Don’t you think the Prince would love that, the smart, savvy Princess that has created an incredible life for herself. And all you Princesses might become a little bit more selective out there, not running into the arms of the first Prince that says “hello”.

Well, I have to tell you about an incredibly smart and financially savvy woman, her name is Barbara Stanny. Barbara’s mission is to motivate women to become financially empowered. Barbara has books and workshops available to teach women how to become financially independent and wealthy.

You must read Barbara’s book Prince Charming Isn’t Coming: How Women Get Smart About Money so that you can create the life of your dreams, live the life you deserve and knock Prince Charming’s socks off when he does arrive!

Work Once, Buy Forever

September 6, 2008

money on silver platter We live in an instant gratification society where people, instead of saving up for the luxuries in their life and managing their finances, are slaves to their lifestyle.

There are many smart, savvy women that have unlocked the mystery of living the life of their dreams. What they do is build their lifestyles.

Would you love to have a new car every four years?

Start by figuring out what your monthly car expenses are; let’s say it’s $500 per month. $500 per month adds up to $6,000 per year…Yikes! So the key to this concept is to find a way to make this affordable.

You need to save $50,000 and invest that at a 12% annual interest rate. That will give you the $6,000 per year, EVERY year for your car expenses. What’s great about being a woman entrepreneur is that you decide your income, so while saving $50,000 may seem daunting, it is entirely doable.

Say you’ve decided to go out and purchase a car. At the end of four years, you’ve made all the big car payments and now you own the car. Hurray, right? Wrong! You now own a car that is worth a lot less than you paid for it. What’s worse, is that you’ve spent all your money. If you had followed the plan above, you would have paid for the car with your interest and would still have your principal.

Your principal is your “golden goose” and the interest is your “golden egg.” You keep the goose and spend the eggs, forever! As long as your goose lays eggs, you can have a shiny, new car parked in your garage.

Discipline yourself to do this now and you will be happy that you did. Start saving money for your golden goose, invest the savings and put all of your interest towards the golden goose. Keep adding savings and interest to your “Golden Goose” account until you’ve reached your goal.

You may also want to start studying about investments so you can get BIG, golden eggs!

Here are two websites to check out to learn all about investments:

Good luck on reaching your goals and getting the luxuries in life that you deserve.

Ten Tips For Success

September 2, 2008

Only focus on the things that YOU can control, not on what you can’t control

Keep yourself on track, don’t think about your competitors.  Highly successful people create, they do NOT compete.

Work on getting past your fear.  This is dream killer #1!  Do what you are afraid to do and the fear will disappear.

NEVER give up!  Push on and persevere, success usually comes at the same time you want to quit.

Take MASSIVE ACTION everyday!  Keep a journal of how much time you are really working, you’ll be shocked.

Get out of your comfort zone, take risks and stretch yourself to do something that you find scary.

Write a list of your goals DAILY, know “why” you want something.  Every goal has to have a reason.

Visualize your goals every morning, in the afternoon and before you go to sleep.

Have laser beam focus.  Your mind can hold only one thought at a time.  Do not multi-task.

Break your goals down into daily, weekly, monthly achievable steps reaching your short term goals on your way to your long term goals.

Start A Wealth Account

September 2, 2008

womenwithmoney.jpg Have you ever taken the time to think about how you feel about money?  The answers may astound you!

What is always on your mind… thoughts of prosperity or thoughts of all those bills you just can’t pay?

If you’re like most women these days, you’re thoughts are on rising gas prices, rising grocery bills, everything’s rising except your salary.

This type of thinking leads to an endless cycle of worry and feeling you just don’t have any hope for wealth in the future.

So what’s a girl to do?  Start saving money, open a Wealth Account.  “What!”, you say, “I don’t have money to pay my bills and you want me to save?”

Yes, that’s exactly what I want you to do.  Even if it’s a few dollars a week, start a Wealth Account (call it this instead of a savings account), you’re developing the habit and you’ll start feeling wealthier.  Make sure not to spend this money however, or you’ll start feeling negative and hopeless again.

If you save $50 a month by the end of the year you’ll have over $600.00.  Jump your savings up to $100 a month and soon you’ll have $1200 in your savings account.  This may not seem like much but I explained that it’s the habit you’re developing.  Soon you’re going to start thinking of ways to add more money each month to your wealth account.  You’ll even begin to notice a change in your spending habits.

You’ll be amazed at how quickly your Wealth Account will grow once you’ve developed this little “habit”.  You’ll even notice that you have a different attitude about money as well, you’ll have thoughts of prosperity and abundance and we know what that means…  the Universe must answer!

So here’s a little hint for you, there is a financial institution that actually wants you to save money and build wealth!  They offer no fees, no service charges, no minimums, higher interest rates and they are FDIC insured, they have too many perks to list!

They also provide helpful  tools and tips such as: checklists, worksheets, calculators, articles and reources to help you “learn” how to save, invest and manage your money, what other bank is doing that for you? 

Check them out, also take the time to watch the video and see what their corporate culture is, this is a very interesting business model that makes sense especially in today’s economy.
