INSPIRATION

Getting the old grey matter back to work and on a mission with one hundred million has been like wading through toffee with a velvet suit on. Most of what's going on in the background of my life I will save for the next book simply because I don't want to bore people with life's little problems. The more you get involved in diversions of the material kind the more the creative force we all have access to is stifled, hence why my posts have become shorter and sporadic. However, for us all the answers to our prayers, hopes dreams and desires are all around us if we choose to look.

Convincing people to get involved. With the success game has been hard, and sometimes you could be forgiven for thinking it's you or the idea that's wrong. But simply the hurdle of conservatism and reluctance of the Market has always been an issue since time began. Having a great or silly idea is to a degree irrelevant, it's the method of delivery to the Market and the turn of the tide in your direction that's the difficult bit, and with this project it's also the rapid money side that gives the whole thing a bit of steam.

Two things yesterday served to kick start my mind. Firstly Tarot. I've always been intrigued how a deck of cards can provide an insight into the problems you face. Whoever put together the explanation of each cards history on my deck had to possess a great understanding of social conditioning and awareness of the archetypal problems we all face. But whatever the explanations of each of the cards, cutting the deck and having the card that describes the moment to a T is a very strange occurrence again and again.

Moving on to the second interesting motivator, the BBC3 TV program Be Your Own  Boss. Why it was interesting was simply the three ideas that got to the latter stages for investment...
1. No real idea but potential from two inventors of gadgets.
2. A £60 camping outfit for festivals called Lazy Camper
3. Custom coloured bikes called Mango.

Of the three the bikes got £50k and rightly so... But it's the fact there's so many people wanting to come up with ideas and these were the best that makes you draw your own conclusions. 

So with this in mind I'm after finding people with ideas rather than pushing my own. OHM will be a club for people who  either have the creative sense, the entrepreneurial desire or the action ability to what to make a million out of £100. The success game gives them a path and a format whatever to work on whilst they create their own suggestion... but not just for it's own sake...it will have to be viable in principle...

To lead the way I've created three ideas, firstly My Epitaph which allows people to get their own work published in a book and take a share of the profit, secondly the Success Game which as you know is based on finding seven ambitious people in seven weeks,  and thirdly my multi level book writing &referral program which means by buying a book and recommending it you get paid a slice of the royalties...think a share of 40 million with Fifty Shades and you will see the idea has merit.

So I'm out flogging memberships directly to see if I can find some creatives, entrepreneurs, or men and women of action to join the cause....
