Ready. Set. TamPogo!

Although I truly believe that everyone can become highly successful, let me take a moment to review the limits to your success.

1. Not having a good imagination. Remember, you need to conceive it before you achieve it. Dreams are important motivators. Write down your goals. The simple short term ones and the wild long term dreams; then understand that both of them are equally possible.

2. Not being persistent. Many of us think we are great multi-taskers; we are not. Many of us think we can juggle multiple things well; we cannot. In order to achieve success at any level you must have focus and persistence.

3. Being affected by other’s negativity. The single biggest reason the world is full of “losers” or underachievers today is that individuals have let family members, bosses, banks, corporate America, the media, etc. all tell them “you can’t.” Accepting gloom, doom and negativity from others is no different than a plant accepting sunlight. If you feed on sun and energy, you flourish…while feeding on gloom and negativity causes a failure to grow.

These three things above are the limits to your success. If you can overcome these, using TamPogo, you will be very successful. People believe it takes money to make money. That isn’t true at all. It takes opportunity to make money and you need to listen to this from someone who has courted opportunity his whole adult existence: TamPogo is a once in a lifetime opportunity. Never before in business is so much success possible for so little money by so many people.

If I were coming to TamPogo today, after studying all that I could study, here is how I would approach things. This isn’t the only path to success; its just the one I know I would take.

1. I would get active by making a purchase. I would probably buy Resveratrol since I think it’s such a great supplement that everyone, including me, should take. I would probably also buy a necklace from the Jewels by Brianna crystal collection since I like to give as much as to receive and for the money, I have never seen prettier, more elegant jewelry. Since Resveratrol qualifies me for the Total 8 Rebate, so much the better. Why leave money on the table? One small activity created two streams of income – my matrix payout and the top 8 Rebate Bonus payout. Plus I fed two kids for a week; what a wonderful thought.

2. I would sign up to make money from Boost Your School when it launches because it fills such an obvious need in such an incredible way. What a great third stream of revenue and I can do it while staying completely focused on TamPogo.

3. I would sign up for AtomiCash. After reading the preliminary information I would be excited although I don’t think I would totally understand all the deep possibilities. But what difference does that make? It seems absolutely incredible and yet another stream of potentially huge income while staying focused on TamPogo. Signing up and waiting to understand is better than not signing up at all.

4. I would pre-register for Tango. For me it would be automatic, as I would see that spending $299 for product that normally costs $350-$400 at already discounted prices is a good deal. And if I simply inspire 2 others to do the same (who then do what I did), I would make $600 cash immediately and get another great $299 product package without ever reaching into my pocket. I could cycle any number of times. And as I added more people to my team, I would cycle faster. And that each time anyone in my 8 level downline cycled, I would receive my 12% share of $50 through the regular matrix check. This wouldn’t even be a decision. That is a great deal. Beyond great, in fact. There is simply no reason I wouldn’t jump at this.

5. I would realize that getting 2 personally sponsored people who did the same would qualify me for my first point in the McLemore Building Bonus so I would write to points@tampogo.com and tell the company I wanted to register to be tracked automatically.

6. I would write a simple script to introduce TamPogo to everyone I came in contact with. I would focus on the fact the company has been around for over a year, has a huge internet presence now, and is growing like a beanstalk as evidenced by the publically available Alexa.com numbers. I would also focus on the great products at the lowest prices anywhere. I would also focus on the fact that the company feeds so many desperately hungry children worldwide. I would make sure to tell them about the power of Tango and get them set up. Tango is the simplest, most powerful recruiting tool in the history of network marketing HANDS DOWN.

This is exactly what I would do if I were beginning in TamPogo today as an iRep. And I would never stop recruiting. I would understand that I am not going to win in each interaction but if only 3 people in 100 listen to me, I could earn millions.

Remember – if you can conceive it, you can achieve it. And more importantly, If you can conceive it and take the proper action, you WILL achieve it.

Pre-registration ends for Tango on Monday at midnight. How will you spend the next three days?

Ready. Set. TamPogo!
It’s the weekend; my time to write deeper, more detailed email messages. I love weekend mornings for that reason. I woke up today thinking about how exciting it always was for me when I started a new business or engaged in a buy out or take-over of an exciting business.

I started my business career three decades ago, creating stress management and performance enhancement packages for the insurance industry and for medical and nursing personnel in hospital settings. My company sold that business to a very large nationwide consulting company. Then we entered the gym business, purchasing large exciting gym facilities that were doing poorly and building new facilities up to and including 130,000 square feet multi-purpose workout plants. We built 14 separate facilities encompassing over one million square feet of exercise space before selling out to a huge gym franchise company. From there, the company started in the vitamin business and owned a number of vertical enterprises including raw ingredient farms across the globe, import companies, export companies, private brand companies, large multi brand product distributors, drink companies, sport snack bar companies, a chain of retail stores located throughout the Atlantic Coast and New England and even a pharmaceutical manufacturing plant. Related to that, we purchased cut and sew operations in the NYC area and even fitness equipment manufacturing plants. From there my company branched out into the technology field setting up many early isp’s, buying and managing large software companies and finally getting into various huge Internet retail and networking businesses. Along the way, the company has owned land, homes, commercial buildings, farms, resorts, restaurants, race horses, horse breeding operations – you name it and we have probably done it.

Each time it was exciting, no, it was super exciting. One day a columnist asked me why I was so driven and the answer jumped into my head. It was because I love to win. He then asked me a very strange and profound question, “What is the next best thing to winning?” That answer also jumped into my head and I will never forget it. Without thinking, I said, “Losing…because for me losing is far better than not playing at all.”

And there, team, is the ultimate philosophy for success. When playing we can never win at everything. But if you don’t play, you can’t win at anything.

If you get a hit 3 out of 10 times in baseball you go to the Hall of Fame. If you throw twice as many completions as incomplete passes you are the greatest quarterback in the history of football. If you pick 4 out of 10 races in horseracing you win the World Series of Handicapping, win 1 of 5 golf tournaments and you are a legend, play out 1 hand in 6 that you are dealt correctly and you win the World Series of Poker.

The same is true of business. No one can expect to win at everything all of the time. Sometimes you work hard and drill some dry wells and other times less effort can lead to huge gushers of success. Don’t get the mistaken idea that success is random. That isn’t what I am saying. I am saying that you can’t win if you don’t get into the game. Now here is the important part. I can predict within a ½ of 1% rate of error if someone is going to be successful in what they are doing. It all comes down to the success equation that I have mentioned in earlier e-mails:

Success (performance) = competency x motivation x organizational support.

Do you know why I was so sure on Day 1 that TamPogo would succeed in its first year? That it would eventually grow to one of the largest web companies in existence? That over a million people would come to TamPogo in the first three years?

Because I had the competency to create and manage the TamPogo model. I had the tireless motivation to see it through. And I had a great team here to lend fabulous organizational support. Knowing I was getting involved in a winning effort and knowing how big it was going to be was (and is) incredibly exciting.

The equation above is the EXACT reason that you probably have not been successful in network marketing in the past. It had nothing to do with your competency, or motivation – it was the organization support factor. 10 (competency) x 10 (motivation) x 0 (organizational support) = 0. It’s just math. Most every network company has been built to behave like a pirate ship. Sail in, steal the money and sail out.

TamPogo is obviously different. If you are involved in starting your own business at TamPogo, you should share the same incredible excitement that I have. Seriously, you are in the right place at the absolute right time. Every single person reading this email can succeed at a level they always wanted to believe they were capable of, yet never knew how to reach. Using TamPogo – if you can conceive it, you can achieve it!

Although I truly believe that everyone can become highly successful, let me take a moment to review the limits to your success.

1. Not having a good imagination. Remember, you need to conceive it before you achieve it. Dreams are important motivators. Write down your goals. The simple short term ones and the wild long term dreams; then understand that both of them are equally possible.

FROZEN DESSERTS

Saturday, July 10th, 2010

I do not remember a time when I did not love frozen desserts. My widowed mother helped us to make ice cream when we were children. That was great fun. We all took our turn at turning the crank until it was so stiff we could not turn it any more. In the winter we would go out and gather the snow and ice to freeze the ice cream with. Making ice cream is a great family activity. A good time to bond with your children and grand children. My husband and I carry that tradition into our married life and our family. It is a wonderful way to bond with not only your children but, also become better acquainted with their friends; which, is so very important in today’s busy world.

I had the added bonus of having a husband whose father was in the dairy manufacturing business. We carried the tradition of ice cream, family and friends into our marriage. Our children and their friends were always good company with a dish of ice cream in their hands. Try it you will like it. Oh! And we were always able to get the children to hang around with their friends and clean the kitchen after the impromptu parties also.

Ice cream and its frozen relatives are among the most popular deserts which grace the American table, and are probably the most typically American of all foods with the possible exception of pie.
It is difficult to classify frozen desserts because there is very little uniformity in the ingredients used in products called by the various names; however, a general classification that will help to differentiate between the desserts is as follows:

Ice Cream: Plain or Philadelphia ice cream is a mixture of thin cream a sweetener and flavoring that is stirred while frozen and may or may not have some type of binder added, such as gelatin, eggs, etc.

New York or French ice cream has enough egg yolk added to gin the ice cream a definite yellow color.

Custard ice cream contains either flour, cornstarch or gelatin as the thickening and may contain egg in a smaller proportion than the New York type.

Regular ice cream contains either flour, cornstarch or gelatin as the thickening and may contain egg in a smaller proportion than the New York Type.

Unstirred ice cream (made in the mechanical refrigerator) usually contains richer cream and a relatively large amount of some binder of stabilizer.

Ices: An ice consists of sweetened fruit juice or purée that is usually diluted with water and may contain beaten egg white.

Sherbets: A sherbet is sweetened fruit juice or purée that is usually diluted with milk instead of water and may contain beaten egg white.

Mouse: A mousse contains sweetened, flavored whipped cream the is molded and frozen without stirring.

Frappe: A frappe is the same as an ice except that is frozen only to a mush.

Frozen desserts are simply frozen liquids with various substances added for flavor, texture and color. As water freezes, it becomes a solid hard block of ice that is hard to spoon into. If the water is stirred as it is frozen, it will have a milky appearance due to tine air bubbles that are frozen into its interior and a slightly less solid consistency, although it will still be too hard to be spooned out. The addition of sugar lowers the freezing point of the water sufficiently that the frozen mass will not be solid and will be the consistency of the frozen dessert known as an Ice. In fact a true ice is simply a sweetened fruit juice that is diluted with water and frozen with continual stirring.

The ice crystals in an ice are still fairly large, and on standing these crystals grow to form still larger ones. If particles of fat (as in milk and cream), or egg (either white or yoke or both), gelatin or starch (flour or cornstarch) is added to the mixture, these particles keep the ice crystals from coming together to form large crystals and therefore keep the frozen dessert creamy and smooth-textured and give it enough body so that it does not thaw immediately when taken from the freezer. All of these added ingredients are known as binders, stabilizers or interfering substances. They add viscosity to the original liquid and make it possible to beat more and a greater volume. This increase in volume is known as overrun.

Very satisfactory desserts can be made without stirring, but the proportion of interfering substances must necessarily be high. This usually makes a very rich dessert. If too rich a cream is added, the consistency has an unpleasant cloying tendency that is not enjoyable. So it is better to use a cream of medium fat content and to add other substance such as eggs or gelatin.
The ingredients added to frozen desserts must always be of the highest quality. Freezing will never improve the flavor of a rancid nut, an overripe piece of fruit, or old milk and cream. It is poor economy to spoil the flavor of a whole freezer of ice cream by trying to salvage a cup of overripe berries.
