Community Business Idea:
- use ning for centralized social network marketing
- use bittorrent for full quality content distribution
- use on demand services like YouTube (short and long video format) for instant content distribution
- use sbi for monetization
- use wix (for main site as well as Mini-sites... aka. art widgets... aka. interactive business & content cards) for online image
- use google sites for website content
- use mom's business as a primer to nurture the environment
- use Deborah Morse's "stock investing for everyone" to stabilize the framework of individuals
- Use my concept in How to Help Everyone Feel Empowered of working to create something that amazes people in and of itself, and then promote it using information that amplifies that amazement.

Personal Business musings:
- As per David's comments, engage in something that contains both "practice" and "experience" for myself and others
- Paycheck reference: if you show people their future, they lose the feeling of mystery in it (aka. they lose interest in it)
- Interested in Mother Meera's presentation of "If you need my help I will help you, whatever path you may follow."  ( http://mothermeeradarshancalgary.com )
- Interested in Jered's (Beck) lifestyle as a print broker, where his salary is paid by the printing business he is associated with, so that he is able to offer his end-user service without charging for it.


BS:

- Explore the idea of using Wix "Art Widgets" as a platform for usable services... aka. an interactive business card that serves a dual purpose of stimulating business while serving a useful need for the target market right inside the business card itself (like one-click access to their own filtered internet search relevant to that which attracted them to the art piece - like helping them get more of the same art, but local to where they are or identifying connections they haven't yet explored within their own social networks).

The emotional seed:
==================
 Look how well your charm works.  They'll do anything for you.


The seed's germination:
----------------------

Before the "kill":
=================
 You're training will tell you that when the adrenaline kicks in, you should compensate.
 But part of you is not going to believe the training because this kill is personal.
 Take a deep breath.  You only need one shot.  Make it count.


After:
=====
 Are you alright.

 Fine.  But I keep thinking... He's dead... now what?
 Do you think you'll be able to sleep now.
 I don't think the dead care about vengence.
 I wish I could set you free, but you're prison is inside.


The growing pains:
=================
 I know this man you're with.
 I'd guess that you have access to some very sensitive material that you're going to be forced to give up.
 His life will be threatened and, because you love him, you won't hesitate.
 It's a beautiful necklace.  Did he give it to you?  I have one just like it.
 He gave it to a friend of mine.  Someone very close to me.
 I suggest you leave now and check your trust... you have a leak.


The awareness:
=============
 Did you find what you were looking for?
 Yes.
 I assume you have no regrets.
 No, I don't.  What about you?
 Of course not.  That would be unprofessional.
 (he starts to leave)
 I need you back.


The knowing:
===========
 (he drops necklace)
 I never left.

__Turn a Home into a Business____
Acquire a multi-room dwelling that has the basic utilities (heat, electricity, water) set at a flat rate.  Split the space into private and common areas... bedrooms as individual private space and everything else as common "business" space.  Invest in food prep equipment to be able to make good basic fresh and preserved food (processing appliances, like grain mill, juicer, full size freezer) in large enough quantities to cater not only to the tennants, but also to any visiting guests.

As a functioning home business, offer opportunities for tennants to earn income by choice of available work to be done within the business.  If appropriate, reduction of rent by worktrade is applicable.
