Dien,

I think now that you have been doing for the past year, the "secrets" of the SQ1 may make more sense...

here is a simple pictogrigm that has to do with making money...



Now let me explain it.

It says that "matter is possessed by desire"...ask yourself, is this true in my own life?

Look around at your home and stuff. What do you VALUE the most?

The simple formula for making money is this:

GIVE.

Pretty simple.

One area of my research right now is in the LUCRATIVE area of FINDERS/LOCATORS FEES...

and FINDERS FEES are being paid on everything from employees to land to chattel...

Why? And how is this relevant to this pictogrigm?

The pictogrigm says; "money is a medium of exchange and a measure of value"

so if you are willing to EXCHANGE your time for someone else's dollars, which most people do already with a job, but to do it on your own terms...well then you would start to discover a few things.

See the guy in the California desert doesn't have TIME to go looking for buyers or sellers of properties, so he is willing to pay a FINDERS FEE for either of those things so he is willing to EXCHANGE his dollars for your time.

So you begin (as with all SQ1) with the knowledge of what you want...if it is MONEY, then you ask yourself what can you GIVE in EXCHANGE for it...

as I've shown on the financial pictogrigm, you can exchange your talents or abilities for SOMETHING...doesn't have to be money.

I frequently trade marketers with my stuff for theirs.

Anyone can sell their car, but how about TRADING it for a boat, then trading the boat for a horse, and a horse for a motorcycle and a motorcycle for a house?

When you look upon this pictogrigm you see the various shapes of matter, be that diamonds or houses or cars...or clothes, or food or animals, all of that can be possessed by DESIRE...and by EXCHANGING...

LOOK back on the finacial pictogrigm and you'll see that TALENT is on there or business ventures...any and all can be traded or exchanged for higher values.

It is DEAL making, but it is also basic human principles that go back 5,000 years or more, and at the foundation of it all is a simple principle that has been transmuted into gold since the beginning...GIVE.

It is sowing first, reaping second.

It is casting bread upon the water first before it is returned manifold.

It is EXCHANGING value, and as the pictogrigm shows, you shouldn't put your values on someone else, but should be aware of their value...

As I mentioned in the CHATTEL REPORT: THE SPRINT TO FREEDOM, I personally wouldn't buy a 1000 dollar bike, but for many, that would be a cheap bike...it is relative to what we believe and value.

Jim Straw has mentioned that he sold sewing machines to poor sections of a town because the people WANTED it so badly, they had the DESIRE to possess it...

maybe a sewing machine could turn old rags into NEW clothes...it was a terrific VALUE for the poor people because they could spin their own gold from it...

What do you want to have? There is a COST attached to that, but it doesn't always have to be exchanged for the DOLLAR amount attached to it...be it houses, cars, jewelry or even businesses...

So, what do you have to GIVE? Dien, you're just starting to uncover your hidden assets, the deal maker in you is about to burst through.

Thanks for giving me a place to post the SQ1, and yes, MAYBE one of these days I'll get around to making it more formal, who knows, maybe even a SQ1 Center for Silly Stick figure drawings too.
