“If It’s Possible To Buy BIG Business for £1, WHY NOT HOUSES FOR £1?”

So if I’ve still got your attention this far down the page then I guess by now you’ve realised that the first We Buy Houses International “How to Buy a House for a Pound” Live Training Weekend is going to be unlike any other you’ve attended. In fact, this one-off weekend is going to turn your head around a complete 180 degrees from the way you’re probably looking at property investing today.

Whereas the media would have you believe all the hysteria that they often incite sell their newspapers and TV advertising time, the reality is that now is the best time ever to be buying properties…if you know some simple yet creative strategies that will allow you to do so.

If you are a lady, or just imagine you are for a moment, “When is the best time to buy those designer shoes or dress that you’ve always wanted?” Is it when the sale is on, like right now, or do you sit back and wait until it’s all over? Even if you are not a lady, I’m sure you know the answer.

The problem you need to get over is the way you’ve been conditioned to think. Do you like to “fit in with the crowd”, not “stand out from others around us”, or just to be “seen and not heard”, like we were told to do as kids? Or do you want to think, act and invest like an entrepreneur?

How often do we ask the wrong people for advice? Take a look below to see what I mean. Which advice would end up costing you the most? Wouldn’t it be the free advice, despite all the good

Putting it out there and the Law of Gender!

Well its been a full on week! Its amazing. I have been out and about meeting people, blogging, contributing, adding value and letting people know about what I’m doing.
After ’sowing the seeds’ spring seems to have arrived and I am getting calls and emails regarding work, presenting, speaking and courses! Its wonderful! I am also pleased to have passed on contacts and work to other associates…lovely.
Being a Virgo…one gets a little impatient and you are reminded again that if you really want something, sometimes the Law of Gender kicks in…this essentially says that everything happens in its own good time. Especially if you’ve put some hard graft in before hand.
Like everyone, I am aiming for effortlessness and the power of systems to take the pressure off…oooh the power of the internet and virtual assistants…

So wherever you are – is the hard work paying off? Are you getting what you want? Are you giving what you want? Are you putting it out there…enough!!

Go forth and get giving…I guarantee it WILL come back x 10

Have a great week

The women of Liberia are proof that nonviolent and peaceful protest isn’t just a fantasy…

Its an Amazing Women Story:
The women of Liberia are proof that nonviolent and peaceful protest isn’t just a fantasy…

Pray The Devil Back To Hell
Director: Gini Reticker

Origin: Liberia

Year: 2008

Duration: 72

Starring:

Rating: (HRW – 15)
A story of the power of women’s solidarity in Liberia in the face of almost impossible odds. With skillful eloquence,
PRAY THE DEVIL BACK TO HELL tells the remarkable story of how thousands of women in Liberia helped peacefully end the country’s second bloody civil war.
Leymah Gbowee, a Liberian woman who witnessed both civil wars, had a dream: “To get the women of the church together to pray for peace.”
She invited ordinary mothers, grandmothers, aunts and daughters from neighbouring churches to start the Christian Women’s Peace Initiative.
They dressed in pure white and sat by the thousands to protest the war. When peace talks in Ghana came to a standstill,

The women literally formed a barricade around the building and didn’t allow the men to exit until a deal was bartered.

The women also did a sex strick to protest and stop the war even after mental & physical abuse by there husband

The women of Liberia are proof that non-violent and peaceful protest isn’t just a fantasy—it can be a triumphant reality.
PRAY THE DEVIL BACK TO HELL is a commanding, inspiring, and emotionally stirring documentary about the futility of war and the splendour of peace.
*Academy Award Nominee, Best Feature Documentary. Winner Best Documentary, Tribeca Film Festival. Presented in association with Peace Direct, www.peacedirect.org

Leymah Gbowee’s mission: Defy a dictator, end a war, return her native Liberia to peace. Abigail Disney’s mission:

Make a movie telling the world how it was done. Kevin Conley meets the visionary pair who reached across continents and cultures to show just how powerful women’s voices can be.

In the fall of 2006, Leymah Gbowee, a 34-year-old Liberian mother of five, came to New York City to talk to members of the United Nations Security Council about women, security, and peace. On the third day of her visit, she attended a long series of meetings at the UN, then walked back to the Hotel Bedford, five blocks away. She had one more meeting to go, and she wasn’t happy about it. A movie producer and director had asked to talk to her about a film they hoped to make, a documentary about a group of ordinary Liberian women who, if the stories were true, had managed to help stop that country’s nearly continuous 14-year civil war. (”Oh, those women,” one warlord said. “They didn’t really matter. They were only our conscience.”) Though Gbowee had agreed to sit down with the filmmakers, she assumed she’d be wasting her time. The friend who’d set up the meeting had told her that the producer, Abigail Disney, came from the movie-studio and theme-park family. “Yeah, right,” Gbowee told her friend. “Disney World? What does this mean to someone from Africa?”

Disney, who is in fact Walt Disney’s grandniece, and her friend, the director Gini Reticker, had heard intriguing but incomplete accounts of the Liberian story, the gist of which was that three years earlier, a group of women had formed a human barricade outside a meeting room where peace talks between the warring factions had broken down—and succeeded in forcing the negotiators to get serious. But none of the Liberian women the filmmakers had spoken to seemed to know the whole story, and none had the ineffable presence needed to carry a feature-length film. Disney had begun to fear that the project wouldn’t get off the ground. Reticker, meanwhile, had begun to fear that it would. Her previous movies had addressed difficult topics (including, in her 2003 Oscar°-nominated documentary short,Asylum, female genital mutilation), but this story seemed worse. “I was afraid of it,” Reticker says. “Everything you heard about what was happening in West Africa—the violence against women—was horrific.”

At the Hotel Bedford, Gbowee came downstairs to the lobby in jeans and a T-shirt. The meeting would be quick—no food, no drink, no chitchat. She sat at the head of a small table and took stock of the women sitting on either side. In recent years, she’d spoken to many journalists, yet very little about the doings of the Women in Peacebuilding Network (WIPNET), the interfaith movement of Christians and Muslims she’d helped found in 2001, had ever appeared in print, on film, or on radio. “So I’m saying to myself, ‘Okay, these two white girls want to talk,’” she remembers. “Apparently my face showed I wasn’t interested in anything they had to offer, but I tried to be nice.” She told the visitors how WIPNET had indeed played a vital role in ending the war, then excused herself and went back to her room.

And just that quickly, Disney and Reticker walked outside and started jumping up and down. “We couldn’t believe how incredible Leymah was,” Disney says. “She was (a) brilliant, (b) beautiful, (c) fierce, and (d) at the heart of a story that was even more astonishing than we’d imagined. Any doubt I had about making this movie
