Actions speak louder than words

ThinkingWhether in just daily life or in business  - actions bring results……
Here is an excerpt from Anthony Robbins that says it all.

“What Should I Do to Change My Life?”

Is there something in your life that you’ve been wanting to change, but haven’t been able to?

If you are asking the question “what should I do to change my life” then you made the all important first step which is to search for an answer. By asking “what should I do to change my life” you automatically imply that there is something in your life that you are not happy with, something that you are dissatisfied with. This is the all important start to creating  change by realizing that where you are in life is not where you ultimately want to be and you can only get to where you want to be by knowing where you are.

There are only two real changes we all want to make. We either want to change the way we feel about something or someone, or we want to change our behaviour.  All changes we want for and from our lives boils down to these two changes. An awareness of  this will help you decide what kind of change you really want from your life.

Most of the time we don’t get ourselves to make a change in our lives because we procrastinate. We think that at some level the change will be more painful than staying where we are, so we keep putting it off, waiting for some external condition to initiate the change for us.  So we end up going through years of “wanting to change” but not doing it.

We are all very keen on changing the conditions and circumstances of our lives, but we are not that keen on changing ourselves. We tend to seek outside ourselves asking what should I do to change my life, hoping that someone will deliver the magic bullet.  The truth is that all change starts with us; within ourselves. Realize that you and only you are the source and the agent of change.  All the resources you need to make any form of change are within you merely waiting for you to tap into it and use it.

You can change anything and everything in your life with the right strategy. We constantly read about people who were addicted to hard drugs for years and then managed to stop in an instant while others have to go through years of therapy?
Change does not come down to your whether you can do it (ability), but whether you will do it.  Whether you will do it is a  matter of motivation and motivation is nothing but a motive or a reason.  If your motive is strong enough then you will unconsciously do any and everything necessary to change. Therefore it is critically important to not only know exactly WHAT you want to change, but to also know WHY you must change.

So, what should I do to change my life? Step one is to get motivated. Realize that every change you’ve ever made in your life happened in a moment.  What took time was to finally get yourself to the point where you did what was necessary to make it happen. The challenge is that our cultural conditioning taught us that making significant changes takes a long time and that it is difficult to do. Change happens in an instant.  It is not a process and you can do it right now by simply making a decision.

The most powerful thing you can do to make a change in your life is to make a real decision. When you make a truly committed decision then your actions will flow from it. The consistent actions people take is what makes the difference in their lives and our decisions are the father of all our actions. Thinking about something you want to change will remain a dream and a desire until you commit to your decision and a certain course of action. According to Tony Robbins “it is in your moments of decision that your destiny is shaped.”

What should I do to change my life?  Get motivated, know what you want, why you want it and make a decision that you commit yourself to it no matter what. Then, take action that is consistent with your decision until you produce the results you are after.

Oprah - the most influential woman in the world

cathedralOprah Gail Winfrey (born January 29, 1954) is the American multiple-Emmy Award winning host of The Oprah Winfrey Show, the highest-rated talk show in the history of television. She is also an influential book critic, an Academy Award-nominated actress, and a magazine publisher. She has been ranked the richest African American of the 20th century, the most philanthropic African American of all time, and the world’s only black billionaire for three straight years. She is also, according to some assessments, the most influential woman in the world.

Born in rural Mississippi to a poor unwed teenaged mother, and later raised in a Milwaukee ghetto, Winfrey was raped at the age of nine, and at fourteen, gave birth to a son who died in infancy. Sent to live with the man she calls her father, a barber in Tennessee, Winfrey landed a job in radio while still in high school and began co-anchoring the local evening news at the age of 19. Her emotional ad-lib delivery eventually got her transferred to the daytime talk show arena, and after boosting a third rated local Chicago talk show to first place,she launched her own production company and became internationally syndicated.

Credited with creating a more intimate confessional form of media communication, she is thought to have popularized and revolutionized the tabloid talk show genre pioneered by Phil Donahue, which a Yale study claimed broke 20th century taboos and allowed gays, transsexuals, and transgender people to enter the mainstream. By the mid 1990s she had reinvented her show with a focus on literature, self-improvement, and spirituality. Though criticized for unleashing confession culture and promoting controversial self-help fads, she is generally admired for overcoming adversity to become a benefactor to others.

Today watch Oprah in a global ‘webcast on demand’ with Eckhart Tolle in A NEW EARTH - a live world broadcast and class on Sprituality, including a workbook.  “This online class is not for or against any religion. It is intended to help all human beings, all over the world, bring about a shift in consciousness.” Tolle.

Awakening the spiritual side

Discover a new you….

As we go through life we sometimes get to the point where we feel  unfilled - like something is missing.  We may have all the trappings of life, the material goods to make us happy, YET……. we feel …what is the purpose of life..what are we doing here?

I invite you to join Oprah and Eckhart Tolle in weekly online sessions. You will be studying:

A new EarthA New Earth, but not as an academic subject or in order to acquire new theories or beliefs. Our aim is to explore through the teachings of the book the most important question you can ask: What is the purpose of my life and how do I fulfill that purpose? It will be a course in self-exploration and awakening. It will help you see what the dysfunctional patterns are within yourself that create unnecessary conflict and suffering and prevent you from finding true fulfillment. Hopefully, it will also help you access a dimension within yourself that perhaps you didn’t know existed or only caught glimpses of on rare occasions. Don’t be trapped for the rest of your life within the narrow confines of your personal history and your conditioned personality and allow your life to be transformed from within, through the power of consciousness itself.

— Eckhart Tolle

I can really recommend these sessions - just either join the class or download the recorded live broadcast and listen. Perhaps this is the missing link in your life…..or maybe not. You also have the possibilty to have your question personally answered if you are a Skype user. I have personally enjoyed every minute of these sessions and found them rewarding and  enlightening.

Make money online the easy way

Google Adsense - The Easiest Money To Make Online?

For the last couple of months, Google Adsense has dominated forums, discussions and newsletters all over the Internet. Already, there are tales of fabulous riches to be made and millions made by those who are just working from home. It seems that Google Adsense have already dominated the internet marketing business and is now considered the easiest way to making money online.

The key to success with Adsense is the placing of ads on pages that are receiving high traffic for high demand keywords. The higher the cost-per-click to the advertiser, the more you will receive per click from your site. Obviously, it does not pay to target low cost-per-click keywords and place them on pages that do not receive hits.

With all the people getting online and clicking away everyday, it is no wonder why Google Adsense has become an instant hit.

For some who are just new to this market, it would be a blow to their pride knowing that their homepage is buried somewhere in the little ads promoting other people’s services. But then, when they get the idea that they are actually earning more money that way, all doubts and skepticism is laid to rest.

There are two major, and clever, factors that some successful webmaster and publishers are learning to blend together in order to make money easier using Adsense.

1. Targeting high traffic pages on your website. If you check on your logs, you will discover that many of your visitors are taking advantage of the free affiliate marketing resources and ebooks that you are offering on your site. In simple words, your ads are working effectively and are generating more clicks. It also means more money for you.

2. Placing Adsense links on pages that are producing little, or better yet, no profit. By placing Adsense on a free resources page, you will reduce the amount of potential customers being lost to other sites. Tricky, but effective nonetheless.

When learned to work effectively, these two factors are actually a good source of producing a minimal amount of revenue from a high traffic page. Many people are using this strategy to pick up some extra and cash with Adsense. This is also especially rewarding to informational sites that focus their efforts on delivering powerful affiliate link free content to their visitors. Now they can gain a monetary return on their services.

With the many techniques that people are now learning on how to make the easiest money by their Adsense, it is not surprising that Google is trying everything to update and polish their Adsense in order to maintain their good image.

The possibility of adding is 2nd tier in Adsense is not impossible. With all the people spending more time in their Adsense now and still more getting into this line of marketing, there is no doubt about the many new improvements yet to be made. Imagine the smiles on the faces of the webmasters and publishers all around the world if ever they sign up for sub-affiliates and double or even triple the amount that they are already earning.
The one particularly handy money-making feature that is available with Adsense now is the ability to filter out up to 200 urls. These gives webmasters the option to block out low value offers from their pages as well as competitors to their websites. Talk about taking only those that are advantageous and discarding the ones that seem “useless”.

With Google Adsense, the possibilities are limitless. Yet there is also the possibility of someone taking advantage of the easy money process that this internet marketing is doing. If you think more about it, these negative factors may force Google to break down and thrash Adsense in the process. If that happens, people would have to go back to the old ways of internet marketing that does not make money online as easy as Adsense.

For now, however, Google Adsense is here to stay. As long as there are people wanting to earn some easy cash online just using their talents, the future ahead is looking good. Besides with all the strict guidelines that Google is enforcing over Adsense, it will take awhile for the Adsense privileges to be spammed and even terminated.
