When we take a job or a salaried position, we know what our hourly wage or our annual salary will be before we start. If we buy a business, we will have projections and reasonable estimates of income.
Why is it that when we start a home based business, we don’t even think about asking those questions? When we start a home based business, we should know how hard we will have to work to achieve our goals. Otherwise, it is like starting a job and finding out months later what we are being paid!
Michael Dlouhy has taught me to ask The 10K Question:
“How many active distributors do I need in my business to generate a walk away residual income of $10,000 per month?”
I like the question for several reasons.
1. It leaves out products. We don’t get into discussions like “My long distance is better than your legal plan! My lotion is better than your potion!”
2. The word ‘active’ avoids discussion of attrition rates and the commitment levels of your team.
3. The phrase ‘walk away’ makes us investigate our policies and procedures to make sure we can actually retire and pass our business on to our children’s children. It also ensures that if we do take a break or vacation, our business will still be there when we come back, and our team will continue to be well taken care of.
4. The word ‘residual’ makes us calculate how much money we will make from retail or wholesale sales, not just from recruiting.
5. The figure of $10,000 makes us think big. It’s also fair to the company, as most or all of the commissions and bonuses will have kicked in by then.
If we started a job or bought a traditional business, we would know our salary or the income projections from the previous owner. When we start a home business, however, we rarely ask that question, and we should!
I worked for over two years in a home based business following the advice of my upline to BUY LEADS. I spent thousands of dollars on leads. AND then I discovered that it was going to be almost impossible for me to reach my goals. I wish I had asked the 10K question before I started.
If you do not know the answer to that question in your present business, find out before you waste two years like I did.
If you are considering starting a business, ask the question. If your sponsor or upline or company rep support cannot answer you, RUN! As Michael Dlouhy says, “Run far and run fast!”
If you’d like some help to calculate the 10K answer for your company, I will be glad to work with you. I can also help you analyze your company’s Policies and Procedures to see if your business is protected for you and your family.

The Amazing O2 Berry Product
http://viavientejuice.com/img/o2berry.jpg = picture of O2 BT packet
Product Explanation:
The O2 Berry Products resemble mini tea bags. Each “bag” contains over 70 minerals that work to turn your ordinary water into a healthy alkaline beverage. Additional benefits may include an increase in your oxygen levels, an increase in your joint and muscle mobility, and an extra boost to help your body fight off other diseases.
Most people in today’s world drink a lot of soda, coffee, and other artificial, acidic liquids that may end up putting excessive strain on their health. These beverages actually reduce our body’s blood pH levels. However, the O2 Berry Tree product can actually help combat this problem and balance your pH. These particular bags also give the water an enjoyable berry flavor.
Simply drop one of the O2 berry bags into a glass or bottle of water, shake/stir the water for a good 15 seconds, allow the water to sit for about 5 minutes, and enjoy!
Each O2 berry product package contains 30 bags and costs about $55 with shipping. On average, this monthly supply will provide you with 1 bag each day. The O2 Berry product is currently only available to Berry Tree members.

Acid-Alkaline Balance
Proper Health starts with the correct acid-alkaline balance in your body. The pH level (acid - alkaline measurement) of our internal fluids affects every cell in our bodies. Extended acid imbalances of any kind can overwhelm your body, and lead to health complications. Just as the body regulates its temperature in a rigid manner, so will it manage to preserve a very narrow pH range - especially in the blood. As a matter of fact, the body will go to such great lengths to maintain a blood pH of 7.365 that it will even create stress on other tissues, body systems, and organs to do so. Chronic acidity will interrupt all cellular activities and functions - it interferes with life itself. When the pH of the body gets out of balance (too acidic), we may experience low energy, fatigue, excess weight, poor digestion, aches and pains, and even more serious disorders.
The cycle of acidity begins primarily as a result of three things:
1. Ingesting acids. Eating too many acidifying foods like processed sugar, meats, dairy, coffee, alcohol, etc. create an acid ash in the body. These acids can overload the body’s ability to neutralize them.
2. Creation of acids. Pathogens and microforms create acidifying toxins in the body. As the body becomes more and more acidic, bad bacteria, yeasts and other microforms proliferate in the body. Since these organisms are living, they eat as well as create resulting toxins. These toxins are often very acidifying.
3. Improper elimination of acids. Not all acids are the same; some are weak and some are strong. Weak acids like citric acid are much easier to neutralize than strong acids like uric acid. The body uses many systems in order to buffer acids including breath, mineral reserves, and fat. When the body’s buffering systems become compromised, excess acids build up. The process of reestablishing acid-alkaline balance begins with proper diet and nutrition. This includes eating alkalizing foods (vegetables, low sugar fruits, etc.), super hydration (drinking plenty of alkaline water that is ionic and structured), and proper supplementation.
Mineralize your body:
Every Sachet of O2 Berry contains calcium, magnesium, and over 70 trace minerals. These essential minerals (electrolytes) become ionic in water allowing them to be absorbed quickly and easily by your body. O2 Berry is delivered in a pure ionic form, which means it is immediately bioavailable to the body.
O2 Berry may also help your body to:
Assimilate vitamins and minerals from the foods you eat and the supplements you take
Combat arthritis and heart disease
Cleanse the kidneys, intestines, and liver
Protect your body from free radical cell damage
Increase muscle and joint mobility
Increase your oxygen levels
Control digestive problems
Regulate blood sugar
Manage blood pressure
Neutralize harmful acids that lead to illness
Help in fighting the battle against cancer and other diseases
Revitalize Your Body :
Higher Alkalinity = good health.
O2 Berry transforms your water into a powerful alkaline beverage, which fights against the physical stress caused by today's fast-paced lifestyles. It takes 32 glasses of alkaline water to neutralize the acid from one 12 oz. soda. Each time you drink acidic soda, coffee, tea, and energy drinks your body uses its own buffers (from bone and dna) to raise the body's alkalinity to maintain your healthy blood pH level of 7.35-7.45. Drinking water with O2 Berry in it, can help the body restore it's mineral supplies to balance it's pH.
Delicious Berry taste helps you to drink more water:
O2 Berry adds a light Berry flavour to the water without any artificial sweeteners or colours.
As anyone with kids knows, getting them to drink more water instead of soda or sugary fruit drinks is a challenge. Adding O2 Berry's mineral benefits and flavour to water can help you and your kids drink more water and minerals every day.
The Facts: "More than 1 in 5 Americans unknowingly drink tap water polluted with feces, radiation or other contaminants Nearly 1,000 deaths each year and at least 400,000 cases of waterborne illness may be attributed to contaminated water"-The New York Times - June 2, 1995
You can clean your water with O2 Berry!
Transform your water! Removes chlorine instantly! (Chlorine is believed to be one of the biggest causes of hardening of the arteries in the USA.)

Addicted to Diet Soda?? Check this experiment
One Woman's Astonishing Experiment With Aspartame
Victoria Inness-Brown’s family was addicted to diet soda. After researching the effects of aspartame, she strongly believed the artificial sweetener might one day lead to their illness or even their early deaths.
So she decided to perform her own aspartame experiment -- with 108 rats for 2 years and 8 months. Daily, she fed some of the rats the equivalent, for their body weight, of two-thirds the aspartame contained in 8-oz of diet soda.
Eleven of the females who took aspartame -- 37 percent -- developed tumors, some of massive size.

Surging Influenza Season Prompts FDA to Reformulate Flu Vaccine
Surging Influenza Season Prompts FDA to Reformulate Flu Vaccine
The current influenza season is on the rampage, widely circulating across almost the entire country, the Centers for Disease Control said. The flu epidemic is now widespread in 49 US states, killing at least 22 children this year.
Although, the widespread influenza activity is up from 44 states reported last week, but the surge was not as dramatic as it was a week earlier. CDC said that Florida is the only state reporting just regional outbreaks.
"Flu activity has continued to increase, but not quite as dramatically as the increases we've seen over the previous 2 weeks," said Nancy Cox, MD, chief of the CDC's influenza division. "From a 10-year perspective, we are within the normal parameters of what we'd expect for an influenza season," she continued.
Last week, the World Health Organization expressed their concern about the ongoing bad flu season. WHO said the current influenza season is getting so worse that it can overpower the existing method of treating the infections.
Issuing the warning together with the CDC, U.S. officials said that in the surging influenza season virus can mutate, thus turning the current vaccines into inefficient methods to stop the infections.
Influenza (commonly known as "the flu") is an acute respiratory illness caused by one of the family of influenza viruses. In infants, persons over the age of 65 years, and those with chronic medical conditions, flu can lead to pneumonia, hospitalization, and even death. Each winter, influenza engulfs 36,000 lives in America, most of them elderly and children, and more than 200,000 people are hospitalized with flu-related complications.
According to CDC, although H1N1 subtypes of influenza were more common at the beginning of the season in the United States, the predominant subtype is still A/H3N2.
Why the flu season is getting worse is partly because this year's vaccine is a good match for only about 40% of the viruses, while the flu shots can fend off 70% to 90% of flu bugs in good years, CDC said.
What worried the health agencies most is that this year’s flu vaccine is no longer able to cover all the strains of the viruses that have been circulating throughout the country. Some of the circulating viruses differing from those in the vaccine, the CDC said.
"This year we have two new virus that have cropped up unexpectedly and our flu vaccine coverage hits about 40% of what we are seeing now," said Dr. Michael Richardson of Charlotte Medical Clinic.
Flu vaccines contain the three most common circulating strains, usually two from the Type A family of influenza, and one from Type B. But, the FDA decided this week that three new strains of the virus will be used for next year's vaccine because all three previously used strains have mutated.
Federal health officials on Thursday announced the selection of A-Brisbane/59, A-Brisbane/10, from the Type A family of influenza, and B-Florida, from Type B, for the next season's flu vaccine.
