I explained that we all have acres of diamonds in our own backyard.

"Come on, I'm not spending time looking for anything
in my backyard, I live on what was once a farm," he responded.

"Take your literal left-brain, logical, lawyer hat off for two seconds," I quipped.

"Diamonds are ideas that could literally make you truck loads of cash," I shot back.

After asking a couple of probing questions about what he enjoys doing both now and in the past– Wally Wombat came up. "Who is Wally," you ask?

Wally Wombat was a TV show Jeff created, acted in, directed and edited all with public television when he was in college. The Wally Wombat Show had the flavor of David Letterman in the early days; interview total strangers on the streets of Wadsworth with the twist of being a super hero saving. (Don't go searching the net, nothing ever came of it)

You're prob thinking okay another story of some goofy kids with some hours to waist. Right?

Wrong. The gold nugget to gather here is... he did all this for FREE!

"Jeff, what if you created a 'How to Course' on creating your own infomercial on public television ALL FOR FREE," I suggested.

Silence filled the phone. Then I heard, "Wow, now that is interesting idea VP!@"

"That is one big diamond that I thoroughly know inside and out and could write about to help others take advantage of the opportunity," he thought out loud.

Yep, and you probably have many other diamonds with your name on them.

What interests do you have that could put extra cash in YOUR pocket?

Make a list of everything you enjoy doing. Filter out the ones that you think others would be interested in getting their hands on.

Here is a visual to help you get in the mood. (SEE ABOVE) Download the image and begin labeling each diamond in the wheel barrel. After this session you should have at least one solid idea to move forward with.

All for now.
