Another great learning that I got from this book is about how small but consistent chunks of time spent on a day to day basis sums up to huge amounts of time when analyzed year by year.

He did not quit carrying buckets. Ths then I found out about Pablo, who build his conduct while he still carried buckets. Book by Hedges, Burke.

He waited to validate his idea. There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Feb 29, Divya rated it really liked it. AmazonGlobal Ship Orders Internationally. They were too busy trying to stay alive to think about leverage. And time is the great equalizer! Time enables the little guy to compete with the big boys. In fact, we have right at our fingertips the greatest tike-leveraging tool in the history of the world!

This time-leveraging tool has created more millionaires in less time than any other single invention in history. You probably know the e-pipeline by a different name — a name that is flashed across newspaper headlines and TV screens 24 hours a day.

That name? The Internet. In a word, the Internet is the future — and the future is now! The Internet is as fast as the speed of light… costs a few dollars a day to use… is always on… has limitless applications… and interconnects the world. Oh — and million people were wired to the Web in less than half the time it took to build the Brooklyn Bridge. In fact, the Internet has a problem. Too crowded. L Too confusing. Too competitive. Too hi-tech. Where do you shop?

How do you buy? Who do you trust? According to the experts, e-commerce sites are facing three major challenges: 1 They need more traffic. The Internet Needs Loyal Customers In a nutshell, most e-commerce sites are hurting for customers — loyal customers.

Hits are like the members of walking clubs who meet every morning at the local shopping mall. They use the mall to exercise, not to shop. They have no intention of shopping. Once their walk is over, they jump in their car and go shop somewhere else! Likewise, hits on a website are just people going out for a stroll on the Internet.

Sales bring in revenue! And the truth is, most e-commerce sites are hurting for sales. Because at most sites, shoppers have no incentive to make weekly and monthly purchases. Internet users have no loyalty because most ecommerce sites are more concerned about offering the lowest price than they are about building longterm relationships! Most likely a friend or co-worker recommended the movie. Same goes for your favorite websites — most likely they were recommended by someone you knew and trusted, as opposed to your falling for a slick TV commercial or clicking on a rotating banner ad.

Truth is, word-of-mouth recommendations have always been the most effective form of advertising. You see, people like dealing with people. People trust and value hitouch relationships. You recommend products and services all day, every day, for free.

And people shop and buy based on your recommendations. You can! By leveraging your time and relationships, you can create loyal customers for relationship-driven ecommerce sites…while creating a pipeline of ongoing residual income for yourself! The e-commerce site gets more loyal customers. And you get paid for recommending products and services you use and enjoy.

I call it the Ultimate Pipeline. In return for your recommendations, the e-biz pays you a commission on all the products pruchased by your referrals.

In return for paying out referral fees, the company gets loyal customers who return to the site again and again. The company solves its biggest problem — lack of loyal customers. And you build a pipeline of ongoing residual income. You talk. They tech. You do what you do every day — you talk to people! You help people cut through the clutter of the Internet… and you get paid for it! How much can you earn from your Ultimate Pipeline?

The more people in your referral network, the bigger your residual pipeline. How could one individual personally recommend products to tens of thousands of people? Not if you use the magic of compounding! The inventor only wanted one grain of rice for his compensation, but he wanted it doubled for each square on the chess board. The total ended up being 10 times more rice than there was in the entire world!

The story illustrates the amazing power of compounding, also known as the doubling concept. Just imagine for a moment what would happen if you took the concept of compounding… and somehow combined it with e-commerce. Just think, with e-compounding, you can get the results of the Palm Beach Pipeline without having to invest a fortune. Instead of leveraging your money, you leverage your time and relationships to built your own Ultimate Pipeline!

You teach him how to form affiliate partnerships with his friends and acquaintances, while you partner with a second person. So, by the end of month two, you would have two affiliate partners; meanwhile, your first partner has also brought a new person into your affiliate network. Then you keep repeating the process. By the end of the first year, you would have personally partnered with 12 people — one new person each month.

This is where the magic of compounding kicks in. By the end of 12 months, your network could compound to 4, affiliated independent business owners! It combines the exponential growth of compounding with the convenience and the reach of e-commerce. L Not only does the Ultimate Pipeline keep pumping out profits, but, like Pablo, you grow your pipeline by leveraging your time, instead of your money!

It only takes months or a few years to build, as opposed to decades. You just do what you do every day — talk to people! You help people cut through the confusion and clutter of the Internet — and you get paid for it!

If you can talk… and point and click… then you can leverage your time and your relationships to build the Ultimate Pipeline. The Ultimate Pipeline lets us learn from the Palm Beach Pipeline people — we copy the concept of compounding. But instead of compounding our money, we compound our time and relationships. As a result, we can get the results of a Palm Beach Pipeline at a fraction of the money — and in a fraction of the time!

Instead of having to wait 50 years to receive the benefits of their pipeline, they can start enjoying profits in months! He goes on to say that creating better business concepts is nothing new. He understood that the customer is king, and he sought ways to meet individual needs and tastes. Today GM is the biggest revenue-producing company in the world. New and Improved Model Like GM, e-compounding is an improvement on the original e-commerce concept, a better way of attracting new customers and fostering their loyalty.

Well, e-compounding is new and improved ecommerce! Without word-of-mouth marketing… referral fees… and the power of compounding, e-commerce would never have broken out of its cocoon. Lots of loyal customers But e-compounding offers a new and improved way for e-commerce to sprout its wings and fulfill its potential.

As a result, referral-based Internet companies are flourishing while hundreds of deepdiscount e-tailers are drowning in debt. Your purpose may be to earn enough money to afford an extra-nice Christmas. Or your purpose may be to escape from a dead-end job and build Ultimate Pipelines that will circle the globe. And your purse may be to earn a few extra dollars a month. Or your purse may be to become a millionaire many times over.

E-compounding is the Ultimate Pipeline. How big you build it is up to you. It made Pablo and Bruno sad that so many people lacked vision. But Joe was determined to retire rich. So he scrimped and saved every penny he could and worked nights and weekends in a second job to fuel his investment pipeline. After 50 years, his discipline and sacrifice paid off. He was finally financially free! Joe decided that now that he was 70 years old, he was going to live it up! He decided it was time to indulge his life-long dream of scuba diving all over the world.

Joe spent thousands of his hard-earned dollars on lessons and diving equipment. He flew 81 first class to Hawaii, where he had reserved a suite at the Ritz Carlton. His dream had finally come true! He felt a sense of pride as he suited up in his expensive equipment — custom-made wet suit… specially built aluminum oxygen tanks… Germanengineered underwater cameras… water-proof pen and underwater pad for writing notes.

Joe was ready! Joe savored every moment as he swam down toward the rainbow-colored coral reef. He photographed the exotic fish as he descended.

His first dive was everything he had dreamed about. He had spent tens of thousands of dollars on his new hobby, but it was worth every penny! Joe furiously scribbled a message on his notepad. Then he flippered down to the man and tapped him on the shoulder. What gives? Joe thought the guy was enjoying a leisurely dive. But the truth was much different — the guy was drowning! Appearances can be deceiving when it comes to finances, too.

People who wear Rolex watches and designer clothes appear to be financially independent — but many of them are drowning in debt! When Thomas J. Danko, the authors of The Millionaire Next Door, started researching their book, they sought interviews with people who had a net worth of a million dollars or more.

Assuming that the richest people lived in the most expensive houses, the authors surveyed people in upscale neighborhoods across the country. Because they were spending their money to support lavish lifestyles instead of putting a portion of it aside to build pipelines.

The good news about the year pipeline plan is that it works! Saving and investing small amounts of money in the stock market on a monthly basis over time is a sure-fire way for people of modest means to become financially independent. The key to long-term investing is to make regular deposits over a long period of time and then let it compound year after year. Impossible, you say?

Virtually anybody living above the poverty line can do it! Instant millionaire! Think of it this way — one out of three Americans smokes cigarettes. If every person who smoked quit at age 25 and invested their cigarette money in the market and let it compound for 40 years, one-third of Americans would be millionaires by the time they turned 65!

And, yes, some stocks go down. And sometimes the entire market goes down, as it did in the crash of But all of the wizards on Wall Street say that over time, investing in the stock market is the easiest and 85 surest way to build a profit-pumping pipeline.

The facts support the experts: During the plus years the New York Stock Exchange has been in business, stocks have averaged going up two out of every three days. Since WWII, the stock market has gone up fold, despite nine recessions during that year span. Most people have several year 47 pipelines under construction. Their home is one long-term pipeline. Social Security is yet another. Unfortunately, all too many people stop at these two pipelines.

But the bad news is that most people want to enjoy the benefits of a pipeline today — instead of having to wait 20… 30… 40… or even 50 years! I admit it — I want to enjoy the finer things in life today, not half a century down the road! Yes, I believe in building long-term pipelines.

I have several under construction. I like the things 87 money can buy. I expect you feel the same way, too. I enjoy a great meal in a first-class restaurant.

I love the smell of new car interiors. I like driving a big Mercedes more than a small Mazda. I want to use my cell phone any time of the day, not just evenings and weekends when the rates are cheaper. Not me! As I said earlier, a long-term pipeline should be at least one of the pipelines you build. But not the only pipeline you build.

You can have your cake and eat it, too! Of course you would. You can start building your Ultimate Pipeline part-time, in the evenings and weekends, until gradually, it pumps enough profits for you to begin building it full time!

Just think — the Ultimate Pipeline can get you to the top of the oak tree in a fraction of the time that it would take a year pipeline. All you need to do is leverage your time and your relationships! You see, the Ultimate Pipeline plan — the 5-year pipeline — enables you to live for today because you can start enjoying the fruits of your labor within months! The year pipeline plan, on the other hand, allows you to plan for tomorrow.

So become a pipeline builder, not a bucket carrier. Great advice. They would talk about how some day, some way, they would become totally financially free. Their monthly salary was double what it had been.

He was in charge of 50 employees, most of whom were uncooperative and unmotivated. He loathed the idea of traveling to foreign offices for weeks at a time. His boss at Cistern was moody, rude, and demanding. Paul dreaded getting up and going into work the next morning. He vowed to think of a better way of living and working.

But if the work stops because of illness or layoffs, the paychecks stop. Residual income is like building a pipeline — we do the work once and get paid over and over 92 again. Bruce, we need to start thinking and acting like pipeline builders instead of bucket carriers. He calls it the Ultimate Pipeline because it combines the power of ecommerce with the power of compounding. The Ultimate Pipeline is my business — I own it. I work from home. No employees. No payroll. No inventory to speak of.

And it offers a way to create ongoing residual income. Whoever heard of such a thing! Get out of here with your Ultimate Pipeline! He patiently explained the Ultimate Pipeline plan to his best friend. Paul would work part of the day at his salaried job and then use his evenings and weekends to build a pipeline on the Internet. Paul also knew it would take a year, possibly two, before his Ultimate Pipeline would be big enough to start pumping big profits. But Paul believed in his dream of owning his own business… and owning his own life.

He was determined to make it work. The web-based pipeline business was new to him. He had to learn a new system and teach it to others. He talked daily to his mentors and attended weekend trainings to improve his business-building skills. He read personal growth books and listened to tapes recommended by his mentors. Day by day, Paul improved his business-building skills. He learned how to engage people in conversations. How to get people to talk about their dreams.

How to handle objections gracefully. How to coach people to bring out the best in them. Gradually, he began to believe more and more in himself… in his opportunity… and in his new business partners.

This was new territory for Paul. But as his knowledge and confidence grew, so did his Internet pipeline. Day by day he built his Ultimate Pipeline, one conversation at a time. One day Paul realized that his e-pipeline was pumping enough profits to equal half his monthly salary! Paul continued to work hard at his day job, but he used his spare time even more productively.

He knew it was only a matter of months before his part-time pipeline income exceeded the income from his full-time job. During his lunch breaks at Cistern, Paul would watch his old friend Bruce scurrying from cubicle to cubicle. Bruce was looking more and more stressed by a demanding boss… unrealistic deadlines… and daily rumors of layoffs.

But he never mailed them. He had bills to pay. He needed his paycheck too much to quite. He felt trapped. He felt empty inside. His wife made color copies of his check from Cistern and the check from his new e-business and framed them side by side.

His new pipeline partners cheered as he held up the framed checks. Cameras flashed. Because of his Ultimate Pipeline, Paul was free! That knowledge gave Paul confidence. One evening Paul sat down in his home-based office and wrote the following letter: Dear Mr. Boss: I am writing to inform you that effective immediately, I am resigning from Cistern international. I have enjoyed my time at Cistern, but I regret to inform you that the company can no longer afford my services. He looked forward to the future with hope and optimism.

You see, Paul had plans that reached far beyond the walls of Cistern Industries. Paul planned to build Internet pipelines all over North America — and eventually, all over the world! He had never been happier… or more fulfilled.

Because of his big salary, Bruce was the first to go. It pained Paul to see Bruce begging his friends for consulting work on their outdated PCs. So Paul arranged a meeting with Bruce. It took me two years before my Internet pipeline was pumping enough profits for me to resign from Cistern.

I know how to build Ultimate Pipelines. How to talk to people. How to build teams. How to grow a business by growing people. All I ask in return is that you learn the system I teach you and then teach it to others… and have each of them teach it to others… until there are Ultimate Pipelines in every city in North America… and eventually, Ultimate Pipelines in every household in every city in the world.

The more volume that goes through our online pipelines, the more money that will flow into our pockets. He smiled and extended his hand to his cousin. They shook hands… and then hugged like long-lost friends.

Returning the Favor Years passed. Paul and Bruce had long since retired. Their worldwide Internet pipeline businesses were still pumping millions of dollars a year into their bank accounts.

The old friends had time to travel and visit exotic places all over the world. One day, Bruce asked 99 Paul to meet him for lunch. He had some exciting news to share. That gift changed my life forever. Inside were two first-class tickets to Italy. But Bruce cut his friend short. Paul and Bruce were returning to the states after two wonderful weeks in Italy.
