Continue if you’re ready…

Let me ask you – do you want to make money online?

A very simple, but straightforward question. And I want you answer it.

Do you want to work from home? Do you want to actually live that live that until now only existed in the flashy sales letters you are reading every now and then.

Well… What’s holding you back?

What is it that doesn’t allow you to achieve the financial success that you have always dreamed of?

Traffic?

A price of training you cannot afford?

No plan?

Not having a list?

Not knowing what to do?

Any of these things?

…or… is it YOU? Maybe your biggest problem is NOT the traffic, NOT the lack of step-by-step instructions, NOT the list, but YOU.

You, just like everyone else, have 24 hours in a day.

You can spend this time doing something productive, or you can just let the time pass by.

And you know that you can be putting more effort in what you do.

After all, you are on Facebook right now reading this post!

So instead of spending hours browsing through Facebook every day, you can do something productive. Do something what would make you feel good at the end of the day. What would make you feel good at the end of the week, month, year, 10 years from now!

…however sometimes you are doing your best, and the problem is not within you – but within the external factors.

Sometimes it is the list, the traffic, the system, the lack of a step-by-step plan

Well, what if you could solve all of these problems, what if there would be a system where you would be able to generate free traffic, build a list for free, promote products for free, get a detailed step-by-step instructions – also free?

“Okay… Where’s the catch…?” – I hear you say

And even though I’m going to say that there is no catch, you won’t believe me, so I won’t even bother.

Instead I want to give you an opportunity to start your online business that you’ve always dreamed of TODAY, and WITHOUT PAYING A CENT:

Y?u ??e people ?ith?r walking purposefully ?r strolling casually, but th?y ?r?bably hav? ??m?th?ng ?n common. Th?? ??th?r have ? cell phone pressed to their ear, ?r ? little flashing light indicating ? blue-t??th enabled phone.

I remember the fir?t time I saw ??m??ne w?th ? wireless headset ?nd talking. I th?ught th?y w?r? a lunatic. one m?re loose screw ?n the giant machine, ?an y?u relate t? wh?t I am s?y?ng? Th?r? i? even ? commercial now wh?re ? guy ?? ?n th? convenience store talking on his wireless ?nd the clerk thinks he’s being robbed and attacks th? man. Y??, it i? a funny commercial, but i? th?t wh?r? w? ?r? headed? All ?n ?ur own world, ?v?n when w? ?r? ?ut in public?

Get Away From The Computer Before You Go Crazy

For many people their life revolves around  technology. They have become indispensable tools. Where would we be without  our computers, i phones, internet connections, Facebook,Google, and all the others. everyone has become so obsessed that they exclude reality from their daily lives, a true addiction.

Many of us love what we do and tend to go overboard on our jobs putting in  way too many hours at keyboards. The work can involve stressing on producing proposals reports, fighting the PC (Especially if you still have Vista)  receiving and making calls etc. Many people spend all their  time staying up to all hours of the night taking years of their lives.

Slaves to Time and Technology

Gadgets in Akihabara (in this shop electronic ...

Image via Wikipedia

We become obsessed with meeting schedules , instantly responding , instantly delivering, perfecting, emailing ,facebooking , twittering, multi-tasking. People think they can multi-task but the reality is the human brain does not do this. It focuses on one thing, switches off from that then goes to the next task. It is like switching a computer on and off for each task, there is a time lag for the system to “boot up”. How many times have you been behind a person in the subway who is texting etc. They think they are walking fast but they are holding everyone up. Tests have shown that a person completing one by one tasks performs them 30% better and quicker.

So, how much technology, continuous exposure to technology , can the human brain take before it shuts down. How much can we remember? Do we need to take a break?

How many of you have your partners complain on vacation  about  bringing laptops and other latest technology gadgets with you on vacations? Maybe it is time to  wise up.  Maybe it is time to leave the technology behind on one of your vacations. From experience, it will be like someone has set you free, lifting  a tremendous weight off your shoulders.

Try to get away occasionally read a book or take some exercise. The work will still be there. In the days of paper memos there was a saying. Leave them for a week and you will find most of them were not as important and vital as they seemed.

 

To Download Yes or No?

Games

Image by Ian D via Flickr

 The dilemma facing many new Iphone owners is whether they should download games to play on it or should they just use the built in web browser to play online browser games.The main argument is there are far more games available to download than there are to play online.

Generally , if all you are looking  for is to  pass the time it can be worthwhile to just use the online games. Even if you aren’t aware of them, it’s relatively simple to find playable browser games  Just do a  quick internet search and this will usually reveal hundreds if not thousands of them.

This is seems fantastic news. However,  online games are usually inferior in quality to the games you would download. You will need to be in an internet service area to be able to play them as well. This can be  problematical  if you are travelling on a bus or train or other transport, as the signals can easily be dropped in these circumstances, which means the game goes byebye!

Fortunately, downloading Iphone games does not need to be as expensive as you may first believe. It can be expensive for some games , but if you can find some of the better sites around, you’ll find there’s an abundance  of games and utilities available for you to download for free.

This seems OK, but it can be a little dangerous if you aren’t well prepared, so check out these guidelines first:

1- Keep away from Peer 2 Peer or file sharing sites.

Downloading from sites like this is illegal in many countries and territories, so if you do want to use  them be sure to check your local laws and regulations. It’s fairly straightforward for the authorities to trace downloads , so don’t break the law unless you want to go to jail.

2-Keep your computer safe

Downloading files and games etc can be a great way to get a mass  of viruses and malware & adware. Therefore it is important to make sure your security software  is up to date and functioning correctly. You can be as sure as possible that you  won’t be downloading anything that could destroy your computer and data!

3-Be prepared to pay for access.

 Some of the better sites will charge you an administration  fee before they grant you access to their download database. This sounds is not as bad as it sounds. You will have  access to many MP3s and movies  and  games as well. This  generally gives great value for money.The  libraries they own are large and you can normally  download without limits.

To sumarize, downloading unknown apps for your Iphone can be dangerous and can easily ruin your computer if you don’t take precautions. Hopefully these guidelines will help keep safe. and still have fun

Green Transportation

 

Green Transportation?

This is not going to be about what you think. I have been reading the articles and what we all put on sites. It all looks the same. The ranting crusader approach. The planet will not be saved if we don’t do this or that . We are right you are wrong and we can quote this source. The sources are the same and in reality a lot of people are just repeating what they find. The planet is warming the planet is cooling, Climate change is all due to human activity. Climate change is due to something else. Globally warming is real/ not real and we can impact it etc etc etc. We can do a bit for ourselves by saving money using alternate energy, wind power, small turbines, off grid living ,diy energy, homemade energy, free energy, alternate energy, green power, etc etc etc. Does it all sound familiar? 

What started me on this track were bicycles. Cycling has become a major “green” idea in many developed countries with cycle paths springing up everywhere. Recently I watched a person with his go faster helmet and “save the planet for our children” tee shirt riding along the roadway a full pelt. I am a cyclist so can gauge roughly the speed and it would be in excess of 25-30kmph. For a car this would not be fast. It is average fast for a mountain bike. Anyway , back to the story. Up ahead was a pedestrian crossing with traffic lights. The road lights were red. The crossing lights  (walking green man) were green. People were crossing the road including a mother with a pram (the twin variety). Did the cyclist stop or even slow down? Of course not . He weaved his way between 2 people did not notice the pram clipped it and started to shout at the mother as if it was her fault. No thought that people could have been seriously injured , no respect for a crossing full of people , no respect for a law that says you should stop. I know many cyclists who would speak up in defence of the cyclist as they seem to think they have the right to do as they please the rules don’t apply. Cycling Politicians have been seen openly flouting road rules & many people have no idea there are road rules for cyclists. All they care about is getting from A to B as fast as possible and do not care about the consequences or the impact of their actions. Does this sound familiar? It should do. It is the same argument used against cars as polluters and destroyers of the environment.

The conclusion I am trying to make is we should practise what we preach. Concern for the environment means concern for the whole environment and that includes people. Save the planet for our children so we can mow them down with our environmentally friendly transport is not exactly the motto for the green revolution.
