  • How to Stop Temper Tantrums In Their Tracks

    Posted on March 2nd, 2009 admin No comments

    Hi my name is Gill and I’d like to tell you a story that is all too common in many households and what I found brought harmony back to my family.

    I’m not going to make this too long…  But I’d like to tell you  How to Stop Temper Tantrums In Their Tracks and Bad Behaviours.   If your family has any type of suffering  like whining, crying, screaming, kicking, hitting, and even breath  holding then you will be glad to read this book!

    Mom Has Fun

    This is my Story…

    Things were going great in our family and we had three wonderful children.  We had a newborn, a 4 year old and 7 year old. We were quite comfortable living a life of fun and joy.  I could actually say that this was the best time in my whole life.  Everything I ever wanted came true.   I wanted to meet the man of my dreams and have a family and it happened.  I wanted three children and I had them.  I wanted to live in  a house out in the country and I was living there.

    What a life…

    But

    Something started to change about a year after having my last child was born and I wasn’t prepared for it…My house began to have it’s first dysfunction.  It was…

    The  Temper Tantrum!

    I never knew that the tantrum could be so scary!

    It first started when my4 year old daughter started getting irritated at almost everything.  I tried to comfort her, but nothing seemed to be work.  Everything from the clothes that she wore to transitions in the day would set her off.  Being an Early Childhood Education Teacher made me feel confident I would be able to handle this.  Some of  what I learned  worked on settling her,  but I couldn’t seem to get rid of what was causing them.  I looked for all sorts of solutions, but to no avail.  This wasn’t as easy as they said it would be!

    So I looked through  many books for advise.  They did help a little, but I found some books very confusing and difficult to implement.  I just wanted to find that ONE phrase or that ONE action that would make the Temper Tantrums go away forever!  It was so hard, because I felt so powerless! It was affecting the other children in the house and I started to see really negative behaviours in my other children as well!  When I hadn’t seen a temper tantrum for awhile I’d think she had finally  grown out of them!  But… They would always come back and I’d forget what I did the last time to make them go away.
    After searching and researching I came upon this book

    I found this program to be very successful!  The biggest rule we have in our family is, “You each have a responsibility in this family and that is to make sure you make everyone happy!”

    If someone is upset or sad, you keep them busy! Keeping them busy takes the attention of petty emotions and lets them focus on the now.

    If you want  dissolve whining and tantrums using discipline without punishment.  You will find the Tantrums will  STOP and HARMONY will come back to your FAMILY! Find out more about where I got my information!

  • Clean and Clear Skin Fantastically Beautiful all Day Rain or Shine

    Posted on March 4th, 2009 admin No comments

    As the weather starts to warm up in the north and heat up in the south, it is time to change your skincare regiment. The Family that lives in the north will be getting away from dry freezing air and closer to a warmer sunnier climate. You folks down south can change things up too!

    Sun skin care tips              Posted By Emma(Zenmed Blog)

    One of the surest ways to make your skin safe from the sun is by incorporating some healthy dietary habits in your life. This helps a lot in warding off many off the health hazards that extreme sun tan can cause. In extreme cases, apart from severe itching and burning, frequent tans can even cause one skin cancer.

    Though the sun is important for all of us and it is a fact that exposure to the sun alone can generate a proper amount of  Vitamin D necessary for the health of our bones, too much of the sun is a bad thing. The heat of a tropical sun is way higher than the necessary amount we need to stay healthy!

    Naturopaths and nutritionists have already stressed enough with proven results how the inclusion of certain foods can help us remain naturally guarded from the sun. Most people would pile on loads of sunscreen and then do nothing for the rest of their diet and daily habits, and then wonder why skin allergens continue to persist!

    The sun, being one of the major causes of skin allergy, can often cause your skin irreparable harm! Some of the handy things in your home can really benefit us and work wonders to heal and help us!

    If you take a closer look into your kitchen shelves and grocery counters of your refrigerator, you can definitely forage out some natural sun shield for yourself. One of the key factors that nutritionists cannot help stressing enough is eating your raw cruciferous vegetables in the form of broccoli, carrots, kale, cabbage and cauliflower. All these vegetables have skin cancer fighting enzymes that form UV guard protection for your skin. So drinking your carrot juice and eating your raw green salad may help you in more ways than you can even dream of! Just keep that uncooked and keep them daily too for greatest benefits.

    Try the Zenmed Oil Free Moisturizer which has SPF 30, and works amazingly well with most skin types. You can find out more about the product here.

  • Health Check Up Before Beginning Running

    Posted on March 27th, 2009 admin No comments

    Come on… Join us in the 400 km Plus  Challenge! This is especially for the Beginner Runner. Although…The challenge is open to anyone, we will be setting up a longer challenge later.  Stay tuned.

    The Challenge is 400km April 2009 to April 2010!

    I find this challenge really good for the  casual runners too! Why?  Casual runners tend to run a couple times a week, just weekends  or even just  run during the nicer seasons. So this program  would give the casual runner a goal to reach. The interesting thing is…The casual runner could run more than they usually run in a year.  Hence achieving a better fitness level.

    The Health Check Up Before  Beginning Running

    A Big Factor:

    A doctor’s check up is for everybody starting this program, especially those of you who  have been living a sedimentary life.  We  may all hate the check up, but it is an addition  to increasing  your health and fitness level.

    Exericise may be one of the  many factors that can contribute to good health, but if you are not aware of what condition your body is in…Then you will not know what will help or hurt you in a fitness program.

    So…I Strongly recommend the check up!

    These are some of the issues your doctor should be checking:

    Weight

    Blood Pressure

    Urine

    Cholesterol

    Blood

    Heart

    Lungs

    Internal exam

    Physical exam

    This just gives you an idea on some of the things that your doctor may check. Usually it only takes a half hour or hour of your time. Remember if you have any concerns - tell your doctor.

    Don’t forget to tell him you are starting an exercise program and ask for his thoughts.

    Ok you guys we are almost ready to start…sign up for now here!

  • Make Your Own Energy at Home

    Posted on March 30th, 2009 admin No comments

    Make Your Own Energy at Home

    Living in the country surrounded by woods makes it more sustainable for us to be able to live this way.

    What way?

    We  heat our home by burning wood and have a good efficient  system. Where people are using modern ways to heat their homes,  we use wood (biomass) in a large wood furnace  to heat our home and hot water. Propane, oil, natural gas and electricity are all OK choices, but from an expense and environmental perspective we are happy with what we chose.  With natural gas and oil prices going through the roof people are looking for cheaper or more sustainable  choices. And…Hoping  that they are Eco friendly choices. Having a huge interest in all these factors I researched some other choices of energy production for my home.

    Renewable Energy More Efficient For Homes

    Renewable Energy…What is that anyway?

    Naturally Replenished Energy…Energy that is derived from a natural source such as:

    Sunlight - Solar Power

    Wind - Wind Power

    Water- Hydroelectricity and Ocean Powered

    Geothermal heating -  Energy generated from heat stored underground in the earth.

    Biomass -  Recently dead matter (wood burning, corn, hay etc. )

    I really believe to save  carbon emissions and cut personal costs more people should be looking into renewable energy for their homes! A large consumption of our carbon emissions come from our own homes. You would think this would be an excellent place to start.

    Finally I found  information that does just that…I’ m really excited because I  discovered better ways to save both the money and the earth!

  • The Biggest Reasons Why People Fail On… The Raw Food Diets

    Posted on April 8th, 2009 admin 1 comment

    The Biggest Reasons Why People Fail On… The Raw Food Diets

    There are lots of reasons why people fail at living on a Raw Food Diet. These are the most common…

    1. You have absorbed so much conflicting information from the internet and  other people,  that it gets very confusing and overwhelming.
    2. People forget to look at themselves as an individual and not everybody is the same or has the same needs.
    3. Some Raw Food gurus make it sound expensive when they go on and on about all the different types of equipment you need.
    4. The introductory presentation to the Raw Food  Diet sounds boring for the long time meat and potato person.
    5. Preparation time peeling, cutting, paring, etc is too time consuming.
    6. It is difficult to eat Raw Foods in restaurants, especially when you are with other people.
    7. It is hard to maintain the diet at work or school.
    8. Some people see the reverse in health benefits, tooth decay, fatigue, illness and hunger.
    9. It is expensive to eat Raw Food all the time.
    10. People are always commenting how crazy you are not to be able to eat normal again.
    11. These are just some of the reasons people don’t stick with the Raw Food Diets, even though the Raw Food Diet is extremely healthy and that benefits have been shown to outweigh the cons.

    Solutions:
    1. Research and understand one Raw Food Diet that is honest and reliable.
    2. Some people are more sensitive to foods than others.  Make sure you follow and listen to what your body is telling you.  Don’t over do it.  Consume foods  slowly and in  moderation.
    3. Some people don’t have your best interest a heart, they are only looking to make a profit.  Once you find good sound information you will see clearly what you  need.  The investment is really quite small.
    4. The biggest challenge is to try to get other family members to join in eating raw, especially if they are meat and potato happy. With good information about Raw Food,  you will find that eating raw with your family isn’t difficult at all. The family will reap the benefits of the extra nutrients with there meat and potatoes. Hence the family is healthier! You may have them jump off the meat boat and join you!
    5. Not so…It actually requires one counter for washing and cutting  etc, and another for preparing. No pots or  pans to clean!
    6. Find restaurants that specialize in  the  Raw Food Diet.  Most restaurants have nice Raw Food Dishes.
    7. Find good information from a real person who knows. Good information is gold.
    8. Good  Raw Food  knowledge is your best preventative!
    9. Shopping on the outside aisles of your grocery store and in markets  are  much cheaper alternatives in the long run, than boxed food aisles and food that has long list of  packaged ingredients you can’t put a face to.

    10. You have now the gift of  food,  exactly the way nature intended, straight  from your own back yard!  Now you are reaping the rewards of   excellent  health.

  • How Do You Lose Weight For Summer?

    Posted on April 17th, 2009 admin 1 comment

    You can lose weight!

    Simple right?… That’s  if we never ate ‘boxed grocery foods‘  again!

    Why do we  spend so much time eating foods we don’t even know what is in them? There are so many better foods for us to eat?

    So thinking about this concept…

    How do you lose weight for  summer? Well first of all don’t go to the grocery store and even think of  looking through the center aisles.  Your quest for good weight loss and losing weight for summer  involves knowing where in  your grocery store to shop. Go to those outside aisles where the good food is!

    So what types of foods are on the outside aisles anyway?

    • Fruits
    • Vegetables
    • ready made fruit trays or lunch desserts
    • vegetable dishes
    • sometimes frozen foods or entres
    • eggs
    • milk/dairy
    • cheese
    • meat

    The first 5 items should be the most important items in your cart.

    Even in the outside aisle you will still find dangerous foods ( true junk foods) that will affect your weight loss for summer.

    They are:

    • Frozen ready made deep fried foods/ entrees/pizza
    • sauces, dips
    • the latest sale item for chips or cake desserts
    • already cooked meats/ fresh sliced meats
    • Pop,  juice sport drinks etc.

    I would not put any of these items in your cart.  Foods that are natural, (food that you can recognize) should be the foods you consume on a daily basis.

    Go to the grocery store and look around. Fill up your cart with 15 foods that are natural and you can recognize. Go to your market instead and do the same thing. Now… see how fast you take the weight off…

    I”ve  said this before, I think the Raw Food Diet is an excellent healthy way to live, even if you are not a person to go 100%. There are many people who have had some great successes  living raw.  Weight just falls off forever!

    Take a look!

    For more information on losing weight for summer and keeping it off forever, take a  look at this site. I  was amazed to learn how easy it  really was to take weight off!  I dropped 17 pounds in 6 weeks.  I’m so excited to be  all ready for summer.

    Give it a try!

  • Health and The Causes of Childhood Obesity

    Posted on May 14th, 2009 admin No comments

    Studies show there is a sharp correlation between the increase in disease and the measurements of waist to hip ratio.  Dividing these numbers would give you an idea of the risks you may face with your health. Knowing this should provide you with an excellent indicator of where to aim at in keeping your health.

    Our world has had steep increases in obesity with a large percentage in North America. We are one of the most technologically advanced countries in the world, with luxuries that go beyond anything we could have ever imagined.  So much of our focus is computer oriented…Could this be one of the factors that are doing us in? Or is it greed? Advertising so much in the face of our young children, exposing them to things they feel they have to have? We are on the brink of realizing that something needs to be done, but we are not even close to making it to what it should be. Our unconscious ability to just let things go for the moment as our children grow up, are ruining what we tried so hard to prevent when they were babies. We are becoming a lazy nation when it comes to our children. We want technology to do it for us!

    It is important to look at obesity and strive for better health for our families. It is important to make a difference and foster, through modeling, better eating and better life practices for relieving stress and just learning to play again naturally.

    Our minds are starving for stimulation that wants to feed. We are confused though, so we seek out computer games, feed at over- zealous restaurants, or play and listen to gadgets everywhere we go. Luxury…Look what it has done! All our minds are really starving for is the purity of life!

    A good suggestion to prevent obesity and depression for our children is the chance, more often than not, to experience life alone without technologies. We will always see advances in technology and that is important, but we also need to stay with what is natural. This will keep us in check and lets us breathe and lets us be…Let’s start by understanding ourselves with not so much distraction in our wings. It seems we feel we need something, but we can’t seem to put a finger on what it is.

    We feel it is material things, but what we need to do is listen to the nudges of nature and go outside and be free. Health starts at just realizing this very point and as a result our epidemics of obesity, disease, stress and depression would just fade away.

    Things to consider:

    1. What we are eating? –Meaning the choice of groceries we buy and their true nutritional value.

    2. How we are eating? — Are we eating scheduled home cooked meals, packaged ready made foods or are we eating fast foods or at restaurants anytime?

    3.   When we are eating?  — If we are eating regular meals, when? Are we grazing through the day or we bingeing and only eating occasionally?

    3. How we are exercising? — Activity level — A Living couch potato, living regular life with light exercise, some moderate activity, or a higher impact activity like running or walking.

    *There are many factors to consider and just focusing on a few could make big changes in your health.

    The Top Diseases:

    * Heart disease

    * Diabetes

    * Stroke

    * Cancer

    Try this:

    Measure with a tape measure the smallest section of your waist.

    Measure the widest part of your hips.

    Example: Waist 32 – Hips 39

    Divide the two numbers.

    For women you should focus your numbers towards .07 or men .09.
    This is your meter, your indicator pointing you towards good health.

  • Signs and Symptoms of Burnout

    Posted on May 20th, 2009 admin No comments

    Burnout is the state of mental exhaustion that can lead  to confusion and then eventually bring your life to a halt if not recognized early enough! Many professionals working in high stress environments succumb to the ailments of burnout. It is provoked by stress and overworking and eventually develops into a mental exhaustion. When mental exhaustion hits a person has no bearing on how to continue life and ultimately ends up having to take a break or quitting their present position. The highest rates of burnout in a work related situation seem to be in jobs that require shift work or long unentinded hours.  Others reasons for burnout may be because of lack of personal accomplished on the job, health reasons that may stop you from living life to it’s fullest, and depression that is related to mental health problems. Emotion exhaustion ranks the highest on causes of burnout. Are you suffering from constant stress and low energy? Does your life feel bleak and undefeatable? Do you feel like just being on your own, unable to participate with friends and family? Are you moody, negative and feeling depressed? Are you looking at life, as problems piling up, but have no energy to do anything about fixing it?  If you feel like this all the time…You…Yes you, may be suffering burnout.  All of us at one time feel these feelings, but the question is…Are you feeling these feeling all the time? Dragging yourself out of bed every morning and wanting to turn around and go back because you just can’t face your day.  Is a really good red flag sign! So if your everyday is feeling like a bad day and your feeling like a walking zombie that just can’t see the good in anything. Recognize this and move towards healing and making a better life for yourself. Without recognizing these symptoms the results may be:

    • Losing your job and feeling resentful
    • Family separation leading to isolation
    • Hopelessness  and helplessness
    • Illness mental or physical

    Depending on what stage you are at, the healing length will vary. So let’s deal with this stage right now! Now that you understand that you have a problem, you can fix the problems by finding support at work or home and setting up your own plan to managing your stress. Make promises to yourself to change, so that positive changes can happen. Note in a journal every night your mood based on scale 1(low) and 10(high). Note in the back of your journal the changes you want to see happen. After each score in your journal, note the changes you did for that day. In another journal after about 2 weeks, write down the changes you made and write down the goals that you want to see in those changes. Eventually you will find that their will be a synchronicity between your high level score days and the changes you made. Change can be scary, but the scariest and deadened part of your life you are leaving behind. The burnout empty feelings are not always easy to recognize. People can live for years in this state and end up not accomplishing what they could have.  So it is important to be aware! Stress is different it lives an active life and things  get done. But…Stress can lead to burnout. The over demands can lead to not wanting to carry on daily life and shutting down from your responsibilities. Burn out is a gradual process and may be difficult to recognize until you have hit bottom. So take a look at your life and assess. Life is about support and feeling like you are accomplishing something. We may reach a point in our life when nothing seems possible, and there is no direction. With job loses and the high demands of life, it can be daunting to find goodness. Having some sort of direction when you feel as though you are sinking and life is not worth living can help. Most times it is the present job that you have. There are career professionals that can help at local colleges and employment agencies. Your best future is  moving forward gracelfully.  Take a rest and figure out your best direction. So that your path to finding yourself is a little bit easier, try relaxation and meditation. The results can be extraordinary. Clearing your head and putting yourself in a place of peacefulness can change your life. Stress just simply slides away. When you have a life that is so full of stress, relaxation is the ideal way of finding your place. It’s hard to come home to a life if work has got you down. Then trying to get along with your spouse and your mood. What about your children and then dealing with them? They got homework that needs help and love that they need to receive from you. Don’t go another day without checking out this program. It has worked for so many people!

    I sometimes run too much and find I’m fine and having no difficulties moving forward in my running program.  The problem is when you keep on running too much and fall off the path of a program… Suddenly all that you’ve worked for is gone.  You then move backwards! So much for fun!

    Here’s how it happens… You run and run and run. Almost everyday!  Your muscles don’t get that chance to heal between runs, you tend to expect more in a shorter period of work-outs and it’s not always happening, and running becomes something that you didn’t originally do it for.

    FUN!

    It becomes what life is, STRESS!

    If you want to follow a running program, follow a proper running program. A program that starts from the beginning and leads you to your first accomplished mile… and some…

    There are many people who get disappointed, because they get so wrapped up and disruption happens,  injury…

    Me included…

    The story goes on…

    Keep your head up and know what your plan is for the week.  Know what it is that you have to do.

    If you don’t think you’re ready…

    Slow down and take a step back.

    Once you get to a point where you want to run races, 5k-10k, half-marathons, full marathons or ultras, you have to be smart.

    Follow a really good program today!

    You running buddy,

  • Jogging For Beginners

    Posted on July 8th, 2009 admin No comments

    It’s never too late to start jogging!

    As a matter of  fact, you could start a program today and get to the root cause of why you are feeling the way you feel today. You could join a 6 week program and bring your body back to balance that is comfortable and healthy. The rewards you gain from learning to jog and staying with it are many.

    Some of the Benefits are:

    • lower heart rate
    • reduced stress
    • preventing coronary heart disease
    • preventing diabetes
    • preventing some cancers
    • reducing body fat
    • increasing muscle tone
    • increasing your happiness and fun

    Jogging and Weight Loss

    Have you ever tried working out and dieting at the same time and not achieved the results you wanted to achieve?

    By following a good jogging (running) program can put you in the direction of  reaching specific goals  and will motivate  you to sustaining your  goals.  It could be goals of  weight loss,  increased cardio health, improvements in cholesterol levels,  even improvement in hot flashes and PMS symptoms!

    But…

    The number one reason most people start running is to lose weight. Losing weight when you run should be  accompanied with a proper diet.  The amount of overweight people in North America alone is astounding when we have such great access to many great healthy foods! The food that we eat is exasperating our weight and health problems. People are obsessed in a low-fat world, yet our world is fat!

    The Greatest Benefit of Running

    I believe the greatest benefit of jogging for beginners is instantly the reduction in stress. If you start a program that walks you gently to a jog and then eventually to a run, you will notice  changes in your emotions and mental capacity. You will have found that stress has fallen off. Or you will find that when you have had a stressful day that jogging is just the piece of greatness in your life to take the stress off! After jogging you are able to think clearer which will enhance your well-being!

    Please join me in a program for jogging for beginners! Here is a…

    little sneak preview of
    things to do…

    • Walk a whole week before you start any jogging, I call this the pre-week session! Your body gradually gets used to a schedual and activity.
    • Find some time to put in the best hour of your day and plan when to work-out next week!
    • Health Check up!
    • Join How to Start Running

    A little sneak preview of things to do the second week…

    Planning to Get Across That River

    “If you think of it like a fast moving river and that you just got to get across because your life depends on it.”

    Your first week of 6 weeks is going to feel like that. You are just starting out and trying to get in there.

    • The first week your going to plan a time and place for your days or your run/walk so that by the second week…You will know what you are doing, because you have planned.
    • If your still not ready to start yet use this week to plan and keep walking by making your plan and practice it with a daily 45 minute walk.
    • Pay special attention to what you are doing for tomorrow.
    • Do stretches before about 5 to 10 minutes
    • walk for a nice 10 minutes/pick up your pace to a jog for only a minute then go back down to a walk.—-Continue doing this for a half hour and then walk casually for 15 more minutes.
    • Total workout is 45 minutes.
    • Go home and do stretches 5 to 10 minutes.
    • Remember when you are hurting - walk.
  • What Do You Do When You Have Sore Leg muscles?

    Posted on September 25th, 2009 admin No comments

    Sore leg muscles and the best cure!

    Sore leg muscles during an exercise program are  natural changes your body goes through. If you did a sport or an activity before you started a running program that involved using a lot of the muscles you use for running, you may not feel as stiff and sore the next day.

    But…

    If you are starting a new program you will feel soreness because you haven’t used those muscles.  Your muscles are now building and tiny tears develop while you are strengthening the muscle. These tears can produce sore leg muscles where the pain can last up to a week or more!

    I have been receiving lots e-mails about sore leg muscles!

    How to treat and heal quickly heal:

    • Rest… but also do an activity like a consistent like slow walk. Something like tennis would be very jarring on already sore muscles. It is also good to try to do the same exercise gently (run/walk or running) after a 3 day rest. If you spread your days too far apart you run into the same muscle soreness again.
    • Try not to sit for too long…and if it hurts to get up off a chair - do some gentle stretches! This is good to get the blood moving in the area. If you have to sit for a long time stretch your legs every half hour and get up and move around.
    • Do a gentle message on the area with some deep rub sports cream. This also gets the blood moving in the area, make sure that it is gentle message.
    • Ice or take a cool bath this helps stop the build up of lactic acid that is causing some of the pain. Doing this also prevents swelling.
    • Some people say do the same activity a couple days later. Sure if you are not feeling too sore and you feel as though your legs are healing. If you are feeling any sign of excruciating pain, you should take more days off.
    • Over the counter pain killer like Ibuprofen.
    • Lastly, if the pain is really bad and you think you may of injured yourself, take a trip to the doctor.

    As soon as your body becomes accustom to the activity the pain will go away. It is a good sign that you are building muscle. Building muscle is what you want, so that you become a more efficient runner!

    I’ll give you more tips on how to relieve muscle pain next post…

    A year ago I purchased this e-book, it was really good at explaining the proper way to eat and what foods burn calories more efficiently. It is long, but I thought informative. Sometimes it is hard to figure out why one day you had an easy run and other days you are dragging. I believe it has to do with how we eat and when. This book deals with whole foods and not synthetically made foods boxed in the grocery stores.

  • Setting up an Internet Business Tips Today

    Posted on March 18th, 2010 admin No comments

    First things first…

    You got to work hard.

    You have to love what you do and work really hard at it, every day! You have to find your niche, create and launch a website or blog that will attract people in your market.

    I truly believe that this is the only way to making it work and creating success on-line.

    What about all those companies that claim that you will be up in running in 24 hours and begin to generate good income?

    How can that be so?

    Where is the working hard?

    If it were that easy you would find most of us around the world living in wealth. We have to face it and understand…  “This isn’t true,  you can’t make good money this way!”

    There are so many important aspects to the equation that are missing.

    • The hard work (designing your site  to attract visitors)
    • Loving what you do (Information)
    • Working at it daily (step-by-step)
    • And last but not least completely understanding what you are doing.  (Familiarize yourself with affiliate marketing and really understand how to make money with your own product or someone elses.)                                                                                                                                                               How valuable is that? Understanding what you are doing when you are setting up any business is important! So this brings us to the next very important point! Do you really know what you are talking about in your niche?
    1. Why you are doing this business?
    2. What you are doing it for?
    3. Who you are focusing your business on?
    4. How is it all going to work?
    5. Where it is going to take you? (Your Vision)
    6. Do I really feel something for the business? ( Do you love it?)

    I want to make an impression in this world and a good one. I want to make people happy and I’ve been trying to do that for a long time on and off the Internet. I have reached people, but that is the operative word. Tried…It just isn’t enough.

    I’m on a quest to setting up an Internet Business and Actually Making It, using everything that I have learned in the past and everything I learn on a daily basis. I’m excited and pumped and I think I’ve given myself a nice free lesson in this freewriting about what I need before I begin.

    Remember this…Just like any other business,  (I’ve read this plenty of times on sites that really have made it.)

    “Setting up a business on the Internet today is similar to any business you set up off line.”

    Remember this and give your business the attention that it needs, in all the right places and you will rock!

    The guys that set up McDonalds certainly had a passion for what they did, they worked very hard, knew their customer, focused on the outcome and loved what they did.

    Although… I’m not sure if they totally understood in the beginning that they actually had  a gold mine in the making!

    So please join me on my journey or quest if you will on Setting up an Internet Business and an Actually Making It, comfortably profitable.

    To Yours,

    Next Post: I will be talking about time and how important it is to utilize time in your day, especially if you are already working full-time.

  • Making Money Online and How Important it is to Utilize Your Time

    Posted on March 20th, 2010 admin No comments

    Making money online is tough, because there are so many distractions! I don’t mean the distractions in the room, I mean the distractions right on your computer!

    Here is a list of what has stopped YOU from making money online:

    1. email
    2. searching queries and getting lost on another subject
    3. playing video games
    4. watching YouTube
    5. not taking a 15 minute break
    6. trying to figure out how to do your website
    7. chat rooms
    8. forums
    9. no plan

    How important is it to utilize time in your day?

    If you are working full time - extremely important, but if  you are a stay- at -home mom or have lost your job it is also extremely important. Making money online and how important it is to utilize your time is extremely important!

    If you don’t learn this you could be sitting in-front of your computer for weeks,  even months, maybe even years before you have any sort of Internet Business Income!

    How do you utilize your time?

    You know the Time-Table that the kids get for school? Well you make yourself that same schedule for yourself from Monday to Friday or Monday to Sunday, whatever way you want to work it. A schedule keeps your life clear so that you can see through all the haze. You will know when you are working and when you are not.

    When will you Work?

    After hours of course or if you are at home daily. So that you don’t lose your life close to your family and don’t impinge on your other job, you have to make sure you fit your Internet Business work away from the things that are already important. In other words a long time ago you had a goal to have a family, kids and a good job. Now you want a job that will be able to support your family while you work at home. Don’t blow your long time accomplished goals to accomplish this new goal!  That’s self-defeating! Make sure that your new goal is scheduled in a way to suit your family, your job and You!

    Time -Table

    So what is it going to look like? Well, there will be a lot of time after work for family free time, home chores and your work. Let your family know ahead of time.  Tell them your goal if you have to! They will understand, because once all that hard work is done…You will not have to work as hard. You will feel more at harmony with life!

    Next Post: I’ll show you what a scheduled time -table looks like and my next important steps!

    This is a quick look at how I broke up my day in increments and put it in a schedule. The important thing is not to overwork yourself for a particular length of time. If you are sitting at a desk or in front of a computer for an hour or more, it’s time to give yourself a needed break. If you don’t get a break your work competency lowers significantly and you almost become ‘zombie like’.

    Here is an example:

    When you were younger you did a project at school on your favourite animal. After picking your favourite animal you find out everything about it. Most times the research wouldn’t be a lot, because if you have a favourite something, you usually already know a lot about it.

  • Consider Trust in a Relationship

    Posted on April 20th, 2010 admin No comments

    Do you know these 7 concrete ways to build trust in a relationship?  Often, what really makes a relationship work are not the things we think of first.  For instance, do you think you always need to spice things up?  Wrong!  Predictability is more important than variety in a relationship.  The following seven methods are guaranteed to grow your connection by improving the level of trust in a relationship.

    First, as I mentioned in the opening paragraph, you need to be predictable.  This goes against the common notion that you need to “stir things up” to keep the romance alive.  Sure, going to a new restaurant or giving a surprise gift can be nice, but most of all, we need things to be consistent and steady in order to make our relationships work.  Consider that trust in a relationship is built on being reliable day in and day out.

    Next, you need to make sure that your words always match the message.  This means that your partner needs to hear the words which match your body language.  If you say you are happy but you are frowning, your partner doesn’t hear your words, he or she sees your face and the tone in your voice. Your partner needs to be able to trust what you are saying.  When the words match the message, you build trust in a relationship.

    Third, you need to have a fundamental belief in your partner’s competency.  If you don’t you won’t have the trust in a relationship that you need.  When lovingly communicated, the truth is never destructive.  When you do not believe that your partner is competent at some things (or indeed, anything), you violate the trust in a relationship.

    Don’t keep secrets.  Secrets destroy the trust in a relationship.  Be honest and open.  Assume everything you know will eventually come out.  Secrets require enormous energy on your part.  That is energy that could be going into building the relationship.

    Fifth, don’t be afraid to let your partner know what your needs are.  Don’ t make him or her guess what you need.  Let them know.  It is okay to be self-centered as long as you are not selfish.  Indeed, if you are reluctant to assert your needs, you may go overboard in the opposite direction and smother your partner.

    Sixth, learn to say no.  When your partner voices his or her needs, that is a good thing.  But you don’t need to say yes to everything.  A partner cannot respect you if you never say no.  Refusing to be subjugated to the other person’s will actually builds trust in a relationship.

    Finally, always pursue growth.  When you plant a flower, you begin by digging in the dirt.  Digging in the dirt of our relationships can sometimes cause pain.  But, through that pain, we prepare the soil for future growth.  Don’t be afraid of turmoil, crisis, or questions.  These become the fertilizer for growth and change.  Embrace what is difficult.

    When you decide to work on trust in a relationship, you are bound to encounter a little pain.  But, as you work through this pain, you will not only become stronger as an individual, you will also strengthen your couple dome. Here is more information that will have you loving your partner in no time!

  • How to Achieve your Goals

    Posted on April 22nd, 2010 admin No comments

    The Problem…

    • You’re antsy, unhappy and you’re not sure why.
    • You want something, but you can’t quite put a finger on it.
    • You tell yourself that you were put on this earth to do something besides what you are doing now.
    • You don’t know what you want or what you are going to do with your life.
    • The people around you see you as the not-so-fun mother/wife/father/husband/friend. Maybe it’s the mid-life crisis!

    If there is no plan for achieving goals, goals become empty gaps in your life that never get filled.

    Self Help and Motivation

    What do you want to do with your life? You must have some sort of hobby or passion. How do you fix your life?

    Ask yourself. “Are you happy?”

    An interesting thought…If you asked your children/wife/husband if they thought you were happy, what would they say?

    If you have been working on this thing called happiness for awhile and people are not seeing you as a happy, what is missing?

    You ask yourself, “How did I become unhappy?”

    The First Sign You Want Change

    You stop focusing on the problem of unhappiness and move towards a Solution. The solution becomes the new focus in your life.

    Some of us leave our spouses and try to see change. Some of us feel sorry for ourselves and move into a depression and almost see depression as a solution.These people look at the things they have in there life as lacking and live in a constant perpetual cycle always looking in the past. They see themselves as trapped and not being able to change in a happier way, they even lose the concept of what change is in their life. The only concept of change they have is fear of change.

    Sometimes a challenge motivates people. When they are at their heaviest in weight or their saddest moments, it triggers wanting to challenge themselves to change. It can take the absolute worst moment to move into a cycle of good change! Most people need a solution to why they feel the way they feel, they sometimes need somebody (Psychiatrist) to tell them they are unhappy and in turn this helps them figure out how to change.

    A Plan is the Solution

    Before you can change your life you have to have a plan. If you don’t have a plan than there is no direction, just frustration.

    Make Your Plan Viable!

    The only way to do this is to make it a plan you truly believe in! The plan becomes something you can work on easily. The exciting part is you become part of the plan and develop an easy passion for it, because it’s yours.

    So if you want to be thin, want to write a book and get it published, submit art to an art gallery or go in a marathon. You have to have a plan on how you are going to do it. The plan puts value on the goal, the passion… Hence the dream.

    Within your plan you may have to dare yourself to go through the Plan (steps) of change. Even though you have custom made the plan for YOU…There are some parts of your plan that may be just plain scary. Like submitting art to a gallery or sending your book to the publishers. That is why each plan has to be individual, because some people really have a hard time with motivation, self discipline and procrastination.

    Going to an art gallery and submitting a painting might be scary, so why not tweak the plan and get to know people in that area of expertise first. That would be something you would write down and put in your plan before you go and submit the painting. It will establish a better confidence for you. It is much more believable to YOU and Motivation, self discipline and procrastination will be a thing of the past!

    The Active Pursuit

    This is when your life changes.

    Try this…

    Change your thinking! If you are worried about going in a marathon, but would really like to, how about you say, “I will train for a half marathon.” This goal is more believable then saying, “I am going in a marathon.” You can almost see it in levels. Our brain accepts steps, it is rare for an individual to be successful at their goals if there isn’t a plan from the beginning. The wonderful ending to this beautiful dream is looking back at it all. You remember all the steps that you learned, and the plan becomes a part of you. You are now living the good life!

    The Confidence is Beginning to Build…

    Life is more realistic now that you see the steps. The confidence builds which is your foundation to build on, because confidence takes away the FEAR blocks (self -doubt blocks)and replaces them with strong blocks. All of a sudden You are Happy!

    So…In the beginning…the plan brings action, watch it all unfold.

    • Define you goal
    • Devise a plan that will suit your schedule with your family and friends.
    • Work on the plan for 6 weeks or when you feel really confident about how things are going.
    • Tweak or adjust any plans.

    The Red FlagDo not get caught up in more than three goals, it can backfire on you and YOU will lose your focus. Maybe instead pick three goals and pick one out the 3 you want to do first!

    From the beginning ~ How to Obtain Self - Discipline to Achieve Your Goals?

    You change your life.

    Making a viable plan towards a goal that you have always valued, and as you follow the plan towards your goal; you will achieve self-discipline and confidence. The passion for your goal makes the whole journey easier to achieve.

    I am a runner, writer and an artist.I research natural medicine and natural healing. I’m really interested in keeping with a whole food diet. I think it is important to make every day an happy day. Take care of your “LIFE” and your “SELF”. These ‘words’ are truly valuable to your well-being.

    Can You and Your Ex Get Back Together?

    If you truly want to get back together with your ex, you have to do a bit of soul searching. You must be totally honest with yourself.  You have to decide if you and your ex get back together it will truly make you happy, and you won’t wind up down the same road that caused the breakup in the first place.  It’s always easy after a breakup to only think of the good times.  It’s important that you try to be completely objective and think of both the good and bad times.

    In reality, there are a few relationships that are unworthy of saving. If you and your ex spent more time fighting than you did doing something good and fun, then perhaps you should consider moving on. f they were physically or verbally abusive, it probably wasn’t a healthy relationship.  If they were mentally unstable, you probably are better off without them.  If the relationship overall was a good one, and they weren’t abusive, and they were of sound mind, the following should help you and your ex get back together.

    Pestering and pushing your ex isn’t a good idea.  If you try to constantly get in touch with your ex; whether its by phone, email, text message, or stalking them you’re going to do more harm than good.  They will see this as a sign of desperation.  This could actually push them further away than bring them closer to you.

    Don’t argue, beg, or plead with your ex about your past relationship. It’s easy when you and your mind are all alone.  Your mind manifests all sorts of “wrongs” that you may have done.  Even when your ex broke up with you they may have gave you reasons why.  Now, you’re probably beating yourself up over them.  You probably wish you had never done those things.  The past is the past.  This is the present.

    If you get it in your mind that the relationship is currently over.  You can’t go back in time, though you probably wish you could.  Concentrate on what is going on now.  The only thing worse than obsessively contacting your ex is to beg or plead with them.  Make promises how you’ll change, etc…This won’t help you and your ex get back together at all.

    If you back off, give them some time, and live your life, you’ll be doing yourself a big favor in more ways than one.  You’ll probably become more desirable to your ex, because you’re allowing them to think about you and miss you.  You’ll also be helping yourself to live a happier, more fulfilling life too.

  • Why are you thinking this way?

    Health and Happy

    People worry all the time about their health and wonder if there is some kind of illness creeping up around the corner. It can be daunting walking into a doctor’s office and read pamphlet after pamphlet on how to prevent diseases and wishing and hoping you never get them. Some of us may think only old people get diseases. But…Most of us can’t fathom being free of any illnesses for a life time; there are so many people who are sick. If you think of yourself as a disease waiting to happen, what steps do you take to stop the disease?

    Why are you thinking this way?

    First take a deep breath and realize that you are healthy right now. No matter if you even have an ailment that is bothersome right now. Right now you are healing yourself and imagining what you want from your body. You are the controller of your own body and health. It completely starts with what you want and then just believing it, because ultimately you will end up having exactly what you believe. This is done just by the steps that you automatically take. Yes I said, ‘automatically’. There is a kind of mechanism within us that automatically points us in the right direction to make the right choices in life, and yes that means choices pointing you in the direction to good health. When you trust yourself, you live happier and everything that happens in your life is automatic.

    Distractions Life Throws Our Way

    The main obstacle that we run into as humans is the distractions life throws our way. We forget to really pay attention and get in touch with ourselves. This is extremely important. This is how we know we are healthy. Waking up every morning and getting in touch with how you are feeling will go a long way. Your emotions are the key. If you are feeling depressed than change your thoughts and say, “I am Happy!” Really try to feel it! Remember the moment of happiness in your life. Everyone has that!

    Remember the Moment of Happiness

    Marriage, first child, graduation, first bicycle…I could go on and on. Everyone has a happy moment, so go to that moment and stay there. Through the day put yourself in that moment when you are feeling any way different than happy. After you are finished your day, ask yourself if you payed attention. Did you change your negative thoughts? Did you replace them with happy thoughts or did you just brood over them?

    Healthy Living

    This all is the cornerstone of healthy living. Disease does not like to live in a happy body!!! If you are HAPPY… Disease has no other option, but to just leave!

    Heartbroken Poem To Help You Heal

    If you’ve ever been through a sad break-up with someone you’ve love, you may have written a heartbroken poem.  You may have even written such a poem for things like the loss of a pet or a family member, sadness at moving away from your friends, or any number of sad life events.  But it seems nothing inspires such sad poetry as a break-up or divorce.  Just as few things inspire love poetry quite like being in a happy, loving relationship.

    Poetry is an excellent medium for self-expression. Unless you’re writing poetry with the hope of having it published one day, you can write poetry however you like.  It doesn’t have to be good poetry.  You don’t have to understand any of the poetic terms or conventions like rhyme, meter or free verse.  You don’t even have to have ever read a really good poem in your life to write a heartbroken poem that can help you feel better and maybe help you heal from the pain of a break-up.

    An important early step in getting over a break-up or any sad situation is simply facing the pain.  While it might feel better to avoid dealing with the reality of the situation, you can’t really move past it without facing it and feeling the pain, at least for a while.  So facing up to whatever painful situation is happening is necessary.  A heartbroken poem can help you deal with those painful feelings when you’ve split with someone you love.

    Don’t worry about whether it’s good or not.  No one else ever has to read your heartbroken poem.  It’s for you and you alone.  Just write down your feelings, as hard as that may be.  You can write in plain language.  Don’t try to imitate the poets of the 17th and 18th century.  Write like you talk, and break the lines where it feels natural to you.  In fact, you can start by writing one huge paragraph filled with all your feelings and everything you want to express, just to get it out.  Then you can go back and arrange your thoughts and feelings into a poem.

    Once you’ve written a heartbroken poem, you might want to write more about different parts of the pain.  That’s good.  Get down everything you can, and that will help you to face the pain. Writing the poetry will probably be a very emotional time for you.  Don’t try to stop it.  Just let the pain out and you’ll be better able to move on.

    If you decide you want to share your heartbroken poem, you can show family or friends.  Or if you want to share it but not with anyone you know, you can put it online.  There are websites designed just for such things.  You can upload your poetry for free and let other people know if you want to receive criticism or not.  You might opt to not receive comments on your heartbroken poem and just enjoy the fact that you’ve shared your experience.

    How To Stop My Divorce

    First, if you were the one who made the decision to end the marriage and now you wonder, how can I stop my divorce? you should realize that you’re in a much better position than most people trying to save their relationships.  You’ll need to swallow your pride and go to your spouse with an apology.  Explain that you acted hastily and now you regret it.  Explain that you no longer want the divorce, and maybe even that you never wanted it but you spoke out of anger and you were wrong.

    This might seem a difficult step, but it’s necessary.  Since you were the one to bring up the issue of divorce, your spouse might have started seriously considering and thinking that it’s a good idea, too.  When you want to know, “How to stop my divorce,” you need to discover what your spouse thinks of the idea and make it clear that you were wrong.  Unless they’ve had a lot of time and reason to decide that you were right and divorce is the best step, you can probably save the marriage just by admitting you made a mistake.

    If you’re wondering, “How can I stop my divorce when I didn’t want it in the first place,” then you have your work cut out for you.  You can explain, without judgment or accusations, that you think the marriage is worth saving and that you don’t want a divorce.  Chances are that you’ve done this, more than once.  But the way you say it can make a difference.

    It’s important for you to be very mature and calm about it.  That’s not always easy to do.  Divorce is an emotional and painful thing.  But it’s one thing to cry while explaining that you want to stay married, and entirely another to yell or dissolve into hysterics.  If you scream, accuse or point fingers at your spouse, you’re giving him or her even more reason to want to get away from you. If you want to learn ‘how to stop my divorce’ you have to let go of the anger and resentment you feel toward your spouse for ever suggesting it in the first place.

    You also have to be willing to work on your problems. You must agree that the relationship can’t go back to the way it was, but must change for the better.  Suggest marital counseling.  Explain, “I want to stop my divorce,” but make it clear you know your spouse was unhappy with the way things were, and you’re ready to make them better.

    If you need information on the how to change your  relationship for the good. Maybe you don’t feel the counseling is your direction right now. I suggest that you look this up!

  • Get Guy Back – A Gals Guide to Making Up

    Posted on May 10th, 2010 admin No comments

    How do you get guy back? How do you convince him that what the two of you had together was special? This is your “get guy back” gal’s guide to making up.

    First of all, you have to recognize that whatever happened, you were both at fault. If you cheated, he wasn’t giving you what you needed so you looked elsewhere. If he cheated, you were the one not giving what he needed. Yes, the cheater is morally culpable for the cheating. The moral responsibility does not lie with the person who was cheated upon. But the fault lies in both party’s laps.

    Given that, it is important to forgive and forget. True forgiveness means that you let go of all of the anger related to the incident. You never bring it up again. You never let it cloud your relationship. If you cannot do this, you won’t get guy back for any period of time.

    If you were the person at fault, apologize – and mean it. Too many times, after people say “I’m sorry,” there’s an “Oops I did it again,” moment. You’re not Britney Spears. It’s not cute. When you say you are sorry, you have to commit to changing. Otherwise, you don’t mean it and you won’t get guy back.

    Be prepared to chase him a little bit. This doesn’t mean sending him hundreds of text messages or stalking him, but you have got to show him that you are still interested if you want to get guy back. You can’t expect him to come running back just because you have sent out some modest signals that you are ready to re-start the relationship. Put your ego in check and put your heart on the line.

    You may have to settle for something less than you wanted. It may be that he is only ready to be friends when you want a full fledged boyfriend. It may take time to rebuild the trust. If this is the case, you need to give him the space he needs to get to know you again. Accept that you have to take what he is offering right now if you want to eventually get guy back.

    Finally, you have to know when to give up on the get guy back strategy. Sometimes, you just have to move on. If your boyfriend is unable to forgive you, you are in a position where the best thing you can do is move on and enter into new relationships. While this will break your heart right now, it may be the best thing that could have happened to you. Whatever went wrong in this relationship, your soul mate is still out there. Get guy back may stop you from meeting him!
