Do it NOW!
There is nothing more precious than time. Not money, nor
love. Without time, the others don't exist.
Knowing that, how do we spend our time? Do we recognize its
unstoppable passage and make the most of each valuable
moment?
Some do. Most of us, however, do not.
If we were to equate time spent frivolously with money lost,
would we spend it more wisely?
Maybe - maybe not.
When I started my eBusiness in 1998, one of the first things
I did to get traffic was to submit my site to Yahoo! Back
then, Yahoo! listings were free, the directory was much
smaller and getting huge traffic numbers from them was easy.
Pretty soon, my site was generating sales left, right and
center.
So what did I do? Did I follow suit with another hot,
marketable topic? Did I I repeat the process many more times
to take advantage of Yahoo!'s free advertising and lack of
competition? Did I solidify my future as an Internet
marketer by building my nest and lining it with golden
sites?
No, of course not!
I was too busy enjoying the proceeds of my minimal labor -
buying clothes, furniture, property, and a pretty new car. When
I wasn't spending it at home, I was jetting off to exotic
locations.
A couple years went by before it crossed my mind that more
money would be even more fun, and that building another site
or two would be an easy way to get more fun money.
By then however, the Internet had changed.
After site Number
Two was built and ready for promotion, Yahoo! had started
charging an annual listing fee of $299 for commercial sites.
Thank goodness mine wasn't adult in nature - those were being
charged $600 per year. Not just a one-time fee, but per
year!
Thankfully, Yahoo! 'grandfathered' all its old listings and
my original listing still keeps sending traffic to my site
for fr*e.
Wow! Didn't that make me want to hit myself upside the head
for being slow to build my business?
Not hard enough, it seems.
Not long afterwards, another of my favorite traffic
generators, Overture, raised its minimum bid from a penny to
a nickel. My existing listings were grandfathered at a
penny, for which I was again grateful. However, again I
chastised myself for not having added thousands more
keywords and phrases that would also now be grandfathered.
I could see the writing on the wall, and cautioned myself to
put the past behind and take advantage of present
opportunities.
Did I take my own advice?
Barely. I added just a few more sites and relevant keywords,
and Overture's mimimum bid was again raised, this time to a
dime.
So I kicked myself, hard.
If Overture's tendency to increase their prices according to
U.S.
coin denominations is any indication, their next
mimimum bid may well be a quarter.
So, will I learn from the past, or will my bruises and
missed opportunities continue to mount?
That choice should be easy for any of us.
Learn from history to put time on your side. Start building
your Internet business now to take advantage of today's
lower prices and competition.
Don't put it off until tomorrow, because after all, tomorrow
never comes, and time IS money!.
A Natural Mood Elevator
Are you feeling moody? Irritable? Perhaps arguing with your spouse more than you should? Maybe your disorganized closet is to blame. Oddly enough, studies have shown that disorganization can also lend itself to a, shall we say, less than stellar mood. If you wake up in chaos, you'll tend to feel harried and chaotic most of the day. If you suspect your miles of piles might be the cause of your foul mood, take a minute to consider your surroundings. Step back and survey the space around you.
Do you have stacks of things getting in your way. A stack of magazines you'll probably never read, a stack of week-old newspapers you promised yourself you'd get to? Or maybe you're moods have more to do with the things you can't see, like your closets, pantry and drawers. They key is that if you already feel overwhelmed, opening up a closet crammed with "stuff" isn't going to help your mood, in fact it's going to worsen it. As you begin to go after these areas and get organized, remember that...

Top 3 Yogi's Secrets for Health and Happiness!

Secret#1: You are not your physical body.The Yogis believe, you know, that the real Man is not his body. They know that the immortal "I" of which each human being is conscious to a greater or lesser degree, is not the body which it merely occupies and uses. They know thatthe body is but as a suit of clothes which the Spirit puts on and off from time to time. They know the body for what it is, and are not deceived into the belief that it is the realMan.
But while knowing these things, they also know that the body is the instrument in which, and by which the Spirit manifests and works. They know that the fleshly covering is necessary for Man's manifestation and growth in this particular stage of his development. They know that the body is the Temple of the Spirit....
