\nHarris At Large on Sunday!
\nProgram: #11
\nSalutation\/Introduction:
\nHello Folks!
\nThis Facebook Live Show is coming to you from Black Bay, in the Quarter of Vieux Fort, Saint Lucia where it is an overcast Sunday afternoon at 83 degrees. Your host Edward Harris.
\nHere is my selected Quote for today:
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u0153They say a person needs just three things to be truly happy in this world: someone to love, something to do, and something to hope for.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d

\nThe notes of my weekly programme are posted on my archive at www.stluciasimplybeautiful.com While visiting you can catch up on over 400 of my articles archived on the site.
\nNew Format:
\nYou will notice, I have restructured my programme and I sincerely hope you like the format.
\nSaint Lucia today:
\nSaint Lucia \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Simply Beautiful & Blessed remains COVID 19 FREE. We are moving forward with the opening up of our island. We no longer have hours of Curfew, however, the State of Emergency remains in place. Everyone is excited about this new development but the argument continues, whether opening up the country at this time was the right thing to do. One of the major concerns is that we opened our borders to the United States of America where there is a surge of the virus in several states when Europe refused to open theirs.
\nMy greatest fear is that our people will feel free and forget that like the State of Emergency continues so we must maintain the established protocols such as – Washing of Hands, Wearing Masks and maintaining Social Distance. When it comes to COVID 19, while we are open to welcoming visitors to our shores, we must not drop our guards. We must be forever vigilant.
\nAirline Services in the Region. It is now public knowledge that Liat 1974 Ltd. will be no more and six airlines are already lining up to share the opportunity. While there is great urgency to link our islands, there will be some set back if all countries are not opened up to airline traffic at the same time. Based on the various outbreaks of the virus in some countries like Guyana which seems like it will be the last to be opened up to the free flow of regional and international traffic. As a result, progress will be hampered until the virus is contained.
\nProtocols are in place to monitor all visitors and citizens arriving at our airports and seaports. The larger hotels are already welcoming guests, taxi operators are on the job. Small hotels and guest houses are yet to get back into operations due to their inability to conform to the rigid protocols. Unless some special assistance could be given to these operators, it seems as though it will take some time before they can get back into operations.
\nPolitics in the Region:
\nThe resolution of Guyana Elections which was held on March 2nd, 2020 continues to elude us. We are now into a new week as we continue to hope for a resolution. Last week\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s stellar performance by the CCJ in the minds of some people is yet to specifically set out how the matter will be finally resolved. The CEO was instructed through the CCJ and the Chairman of GECOM to present the report based on the recount figures but said nothing about if he fails to deliver, what happens next.
\nThe issue of Suriname\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s election recount seems to have been resolved. A President is yet to be sworn in.
\nAnguilla has a new Premier. It is interesting to note that the former Premier was defeated at the polls by a 27-year-old young lady.
\nTrinidad and Tobago is currently in election mode.
\nThe major political parties in Saint Lucia are busy naming their candidates for the next general elections. Will the bell be rung this year or next year? It is anyone\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s guess?
\nPolitics in the USA.
\nPresident Donald J. Trump has finally got around to wearing a mask. It would be great if he will continue to use a mask to show leadership if not to guard himself against the virus. There is no guessing about the powers of President Trump \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Roger Stone is now FREE! President Trump commuted his prison sentence.
\nVP Joe Biden, the current Democratic Presidential Candidate is moving ahead with his campaign, and the polls are showing a clear path for a Democratic Party win this November.
\nStaying Alive Financially:
\nLast week, I alluded to the fact that Money is the one thing that keeps me up at night. If the current situation has taught us anything, it is that – at least one additional source of income is necessary to ensure that we have income continuity. Regardless of whether you are employed in the private or public sector – Multiple Streams of Income is the way to go.
\nLook for at least one opportunity to earn additional income. Here are some options:
\nGoogle Search will assist you with finding a service \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Search for the top 100 Home Based Businesses in the USA, and if you wish to sell a product using the MLM global business model, try searching for the top 100 MLM companies in the USA. The MLM business gives you financial and time freedom supported by residual income. The MLM industry gives you access to customers globally. Training will be provided by your selected company, apart from the fact that training is available all over the internet. More than 20 million people are involved in the MLM business in the USA with sales of 36 billion dollars. These are very impressive figures. However, to succeed in this business, you have to inform and educate yourself about the Industry.
\nVisit www.aarp.org\/MLMaware for industry information. You can be numbered in the 27% really successful individuals. Don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t just rush to join an opportunity because you receive a phone call from someone who just joined a company. Another thing to remember is never push a customer to become a member of your down line. Pre-qualify them.<\/p>\n
Youtube can be a source for finding opportunities and get first-class training. The past 4 months have provided us with a wonderful opportunity to inform and educate ourselves. If you have not done so as yet, you are not too late. Begin today to take control of your financial future.
\nRemember Sceptics never win. There is risk in every business\/investment. Knowledge is power but only when put into action.
\nFinally, given the progress made in the MLM industry \u00e2\u20ac\u201c over 20 million people involved in the industry with sales of 36 Billion in the USA alone, it is time for us in the Caribbean to design our own MLM programme to meet our needs and remove ourselves from the unscrupulous promoters in the industry.
\nConclusion:
\nLet us continue to pray for guidance as we navigate these trying times. Keep the Faith, always believing that God is in charge.
\nStay safe, until next week.
