Author's Note - Read This First

The book and its author aspire to create millions of entrepreneurs who will be the future strength of the world. It has been working hard for decades to make people realize that prosperity and high income are within the reach of all.

All of us want to be prosperous. However, we are clueless about how to do it. This book will make you resourceful and will actually push you on the way to your prosperity.

Prosperity is exclusively reserved for those who work for themselves. If you want to live poor, go for employment. If you want to be rich, go for self-employment. This is the simple secret of personal prosperity creation.

Creation is a process.

If you know the process of creating a successful business and becoming a prosperous individual, you can achieve anything under the sky or perhaps beyond it.

All of us, without an exception, have known and hidden skills, talents or knowledge. They can be converted into marketable products and services. We are not aware of the treasure we have and don't think that the skills, known or hidden, will enable us make money. This book will help you discover the hidden potential, convert known skill into marketable product and make money out of it.

The author wrote this book with three purposes in mind. First is to empower you make money, second is to empower you make money and third is to empower you make money. Clear? Earning high income, like any creation, is a process. Anyone can learn the process. If you aspire to make money, are ready to learn the process and willing to work hard, there is nothing that can stop you from making big money. No one can stop you, except you.

After reading this book thoroughly and using the ideas resourcefully, you will understand that it's a lot easier making money than living poor.

Level of Knowledge
Ken, the author, makes just two simple assumptions about you. He assumes that you're a human being and you will use all the ideas in this book.

Whatever you already have is sufficient to make you prosperous. If something is really missing, it can be easily acquired. Believe Ken, you are more capable of than what you think about yourself.

If you read this book from cover to cover and use the ideas, it is impossible not to come up with ideas. You will realize how creative you are.

What to Expect
You will not find exciting stock market tips or hot information on low interest loans. If you have any, please send an express telegram to the author.

Instead, you will find workable general and specific ideas based on powerful, timeless, infallible universal principles that actually help millions of people make money in different walks of life every day.

You will learn to use many practical ideas to discover your marketable skills, develop a business plan, execute it and make money. Understand the essence of the ideas in the book and act on that knowledge. You will be prosperous.

The book won't talk about making a million a month. It concentrates on ideas that can help you make a few thousands a month with what you already have.

Get a new notebook and a pen. Write down whatever idea comes to your mind as you read. You may get the best income idea at the most unexpected moment. If you don't grab it, you will forget it.

List of Achievers
Even if we have the right solution, we want proof of its success. Talking of Gates, Tatas, Ambanis and Birlas is only an act of artificial name-dropping and it does not inspire us. So, the book tells you stories of your next door neighbors, who are the sons and daughters of lesser gods and less fortunate than you.

If these real people - average and simple like us - can make real money from real self-employment projects, why not you? The information contained in the book has actually helped many people make money and succeed in their business ventures. The author hopes to add your name also to his list of achievers soon.

Entrepreneurship
Some believe entrepreneurship means hunting for new hi-tech concept, whether proven or not, and persuading your banker or your father-in-law to invest in it. Others say it is an inner mental and emotional status that enables you to face the challenges of achieving uncommon commercial, social or other objectives.

For the purpose of this book, entrepreneurship means the process of becoming prosperous by doing things for which you have a passion. It is a narrow definition. In that sense, it talks about making money from what you already have, already know and already do. Describe yourself with any title you like, including professional, self-employed and entrepreneur. It does not matter a bit what you call yourself, so long as you make money. When you see that you can earn by working for yourself without taking any risk, you can consider taking up more challenging projects.

Use the Knowledge
The book contains prosperity principles, practical projects, idea miners and interesting stories. Many of the stories are based on true incidents and some are illustrations. The author gives hints here and there and doesn't explain anything. The book is a workbook, not a theory book.

The author knows that you are in a hurry to make big money. So is he.

There are 15 chapters and a list of projects. Each chapter builds on the knowledge gained in the previous one. However, you are free to read any chapter as you like and draw knowledge from it.

Storm your brain and work on the ideas with a fire in your heart. If you do this sincerely and patiently, soon you may have to buy a truck even before you buy a new car. Why? To carry truckloads of cash to your bank.

Anyone, including you, can earn money through the ideas because somebody is already making some money with these ideas somewhere in this world.

One of the ideas, a variation or a combination of some of them will make you financially independent.

The information has been used by many people in different forms over a period of fifteen years. The author has put them in a book form after verifying the truth and efficacy of the principles from real life.

The author offers his sincere gratitude to Leslie Jacobs, who asked him to write for her organization. He thanks Garry Jacobs who thought of the idea of helping individuals with step by step prosperity solutions. If you ever find this book useful, you certainly owe Jacobs a word of gratitude.

If there are any errors, the author is fully responsible for them and he will try to correct them in the future editions of the book.

The author has included everything in this book to get you started, except a kick on your back.
