What Can You Do To Make Yourself Unstoppable?

January 29, 2012

Most of us have kids, and at times we see them playing video games, l mean for hours. You know why they play for hours, not because they are winning, but because they are losing. They are doing all they can, to get to the next level of that game, and then they get sent back to square one. They do this over, and over again, trying to achieve the next standard of the match. Where they made a mistake or a wrong turn, they take the approach and the challenge with a new strategy.

Let's talk about our Kids

Let's think about this here for a minute, kids learning, and teaching themselves to get to the next level over and over again, is this not what our life's as adults is all about. We as adults, give up way to quick, just because we made a wrong turn, and fell flat on our face, and got sent back to square one. How come we do not approach our mistakes as kids do, and start all over again, and apply new strategies to get us where to want to be.

They Understand what they are doing

One of the biggest reason l never get upset watching my kids and friends playing video games because l know one thing they are learning problem-solving skills, and experimenting with different approaches, they're gain confidence but most of all having fun but yet learning life strategies.

They Take one step at a time

Each time they get to next level of that game, they will have to repeat the same process over and over again. The ability of not beating or winning that game never even enters their mind. Wow; kids have this ability to tackle problems, and face them over and over again and yet we as adults, we have a tendency to hide from our obstacles in everyday life.

They Understand How to Start over

So the next time you have an obstacle in your way and you're having a real hard time with it, think about your kid or any kid playing a video game and how he approaches the obstacles that sent him back to square one. He thinks, and decides to apply new found strategy to his new approach, how we should also as adults approach our let downs, never allow the thought of defeat even enter your mind.

Their Magical formula 

If you approach each obstacle with this mindset you going strength your conviction, raising your expectations and then you will conquer your fears that have held you back for so long. The more you apply this formula, the easier it will get, and you will recognize each small victory along the way making you stronger and you will start to believe in yourself like never before. How you make yourself unstoppable one small victory after another.



See kids do have the ability to teach us, we just have to understand how they think, they have no boundaries in life defeat never enters their minds. So the next time your kids are playing a video game learns from them by watching what they do.

What is (NLP) - Neuro-Linguistic Programming mean to You

January 28, 2012

We all have seen NLP all over the Internet, but very few know what it stands for or what it can do for you. I was reading a post today on of my groups, and Dora brought this topic about how her mentor provide her with a book for her to read and learn from. Also being a loyal member of the Neuro-Linguistic Programming, since the late 1990s. I decided to share some of the questions and answers to NLP from the, "A Pocket Guide To NLP."

A brief description of what NLP is. The study of human excellence. By identifying in others the essential characteristics of exceptional talent, successful attitudes, and empowering beliefs, you can learn them yourself. NLP was first developed in the early 1970s by an information scientist, Richard Bandler and linguistics profess, John Grinder. From their studies of successful people, they created a way to analyze and transfer human excellence, resulting in the most powerful, practical psychology ever developed.

Questions and Answers About NLP

Q. What is NLP?


A. Its the state-of-the-art set of communication methods for enhancing personal and professional development and for creating personal change gracefully. NLP is also described as "software for your brain"- allowing you to tap automatically into the kind of experiences you want to have.

Q. What can NLP do?


A. It lets you model or copy, human excellence in any form. With NLP, you can identify what makes someone exceptionally skilled, and get that skill for yourself or teach it to others. NLP can help you become adept in whatever is important to you, whether that means getting along with your family and co-workers or being more efficient on the job.

Q. Where is NLP useful?

A. NLP is valuable wherever human communication skills can enhance results - in business consultation, management, negotiation, education, counseling, therapy, relationships, parenting, nursing, public speaking, sports performance and many other areas.

Q. What kind of results can l get with NLP?

A. NLP can allow a therapist to change the impact of the past on a client, a teacher to change a poor speller into a good speller, a business person to gain rapport non-verbally and to run meetings efficiently, an athlete to improve concentration, and more.

Q. Is NLP a therapy?


A. Although NLP can be used as a method of treatment, the application is much broader. Even when used as treatment, it's a process of teaching people how to use their brains. Most treatment is remedial, that is, directed towards solving problems from the past. NLP goes much further to study excellence and teach skills that promote positive change that generates new possibilities and opportunities.

Q. Will NLP change the way l think?

A. Probably, NLP is a model of how the brain works. When you understand what yours can do, you ll probably want to use it to greater advantage.

Q. Does NLP deal with emotions?

A. Yes! One of the things NLP does best, NLP helps people transform debilitating emotions into empowering, resourceful feelings. Since many therapies are very slow, based on catharsis or "venting into your emotions," NLP offers a much more pleasant, effective way of dealing with emotions. We assist people in going through old memories in new ways, quickly transforming unpleasant experiences into productive resources.

Q. Can you use NLP on yourself?


A. Yes. You can use some NLP patterns with yourself immediately. Includes: changing your feelings, learning a new thinking strategy, changing habits, motivating yourself, and more. Other patters/techniques are primarily useful in working with others.

Q. Is NLP manipulative?

A. Since NLP is so powerful in getting results, people want to know that it will be used to benefit them. Our trainings emphasize ways to make sure the changes you help someone get are in her or his best interest. Knowing NLP gives you ways of protecting yourself from manipulation by others or the media.

I hope l have been able to provide you enough information about NLP, for you to understand it more and be able to decide if this is the type of program will improve areas of your everyday life, which you have wanted to improve or change. No one but yourself will be able to answer them question it is up to you to decide what is best for your well-being. Whatever you choose to do, always remember a program is only as good as you choose to use it, without commitment then it will never make a difference in your life.

How to Create Back links for Businesses

January 18, 2012

We all need referrals but to get referrals we have to get our referral link out on the internet. The best way to do that is to create back links. Creating back links could take forever to one person but to have a team to help you spread out your referral links would be amazing.

I have something for all of you that will help your business gain exposure. I have created a private group on Facebook where business owners review other members businesses. It is a very simple concept, You join the group and write a short review on another members business opportunity. In return, they write a review of your opportunity. Creating back links to your company and vice verse.

How much traffic do you think you could get if other members are giving your business a review with your referral link or a link you want to promote? If you got 1000 members that reviewed your business that is 1000 back links to your business referral link. Would that solve any of your problems getting referrals?

Not only will it help you get back links it will also build up your credibility. Let me know if you are interested and I will show you how to get invited.

This article was written by Lonnie Niver and has shared some treasured information on how to create additional back links to your businesses and the importance why you need to have them.

Food For Thought, If You Think You Can You Will Succeed

January 17, 2012

If you think of yourself as being fat, you will be fat. If you think of yourself as being friendless and of no use to anyone, you can also fulfill those prophecies. The point is that negative imagines are self-destructive and self-fulfilling.

There is no reason for anyone to have a poor self-image on a long term basis, in spite of any excuse that might be offered. The excuse that l heard the most often is that people have been told from early childhood by their parents that they should not strive for individual levels, as they cannot expect ever to be that competent or capable.

It starts at an early age in life, a foundation that can have an ever lasting effect on a child and the sad part is we didn't even know that we had something to do with how that child turns out to be. We are all so busy in life that we need to focus and make time to teach our children positive ways and show them encouragement and let them know that you take an interest in all that they do. Whether it's a test result, a picture they just painted or whatever it might be, show real affection to them, and you will see a big difference in your child.

So the next time you see you child sitting all by him or herself, and you walk up to them and ask what the matter is, and they say nothing. Well, we all have heard that statement, you need to stop all your are doing and found the root of why he or she is feeling that way. In most case it only takes a few minutes of your precious time, but it will be the best few minutes that you invested all day.

Marketability, How to Become Good at It

January 11, 2012

Ever since the passing of the model T, the automotive industry has sold cars regarding everything other than fiction-the power, sex appeal, luxury (where would we be without "rich, Corinthian velour"), economy, and on and on. Automotive advertising, in fact, has historically been so persuasive that has not only shaped perceptions but created them.

The industry l am involved with and know most about, what l enjoy and do for a living write, teach, train sales staff to be the best they can be. I deal with owners, not always agree with them but at times l have too, rather sad if l don't.

Here are the areas you need to understand and become the best you can be at them, if you learn this then you can apply it to any industry you're involved with.

Know your product, Believe in Your Product and Sell with Enthusiasm.

These are the fundamental selling truths. If you don't know your product, people will resent your efforts to sell it; if you don't believe in it, no amount of personality and technique will cover that fact; if you can't sell with enthusiasm, the lack of it will be infectious.

Two Reason I Wouldn't Buy from Me.

Part of knowing your product is knowing all the reasons someone might want to buy it.

Beating Dead Horse meat.

Sometimes an idea, product, concept is just plain wrong.

The 80/20 Rule.


Focus on the interest, predilections, and tastes of your top 20 percent, and take the time to figure out what you can do to keep them there.

Know the Company.


Two key points are knowing, your customer's company. First, that knowledge can tell you something about the best overall approach. Secon, though the person you are selling to may have total authority and autonomy.

If You Don't know, Ask.


Most sales are not cold calls. There is some contact or connection which gets you thinking about a particular company in the first place.

Don't Be Misled by Titles.

Assume almost nothing from titles l used to think, for example that the head of General Motors International would be an important decision maker regarding GM's overseas operation. To my surprise, he had no decision-making authority, except in the broadest sense.

Apply these steps and watch how you become better at the way you Market your Product. Learn them and you will see results before your very own eyes. Marketing is all about one thing getting a bang for the dollar you have invested in advertising. If you're not making the phone ring, then you know your dollar has been wasted or invested incorrectly.

How to Rank Your Site on Top with Search Engine Results

January 5, 2012

Webmasters always want their website to appear on top of Search Engine Results. However, it is not as easy as it seems. Getting ahead of your competitors and achieving high ranks in Google, Yahoo or MSN required a lot of work. It is well-known fact that top positions in search engines result in a lot of organic traffic and return more revenues. Therefore, website owners are always ready to do everything to attain their desire Ranks.

To achieve top levels in all the main search engines, you need to understand the search and indexing mechanism of all popular search engines. Always remember, that there are no defined criteria to make your website on top of any search engines. You need to follow the basic guidelines set by them for a search engine friendly website. However, search engines experts suggest several tricks and tweaks that may help you in easy indexing of your site by search engine robots/crawlers.

The contents of your websites, META tags (Description and Keywords appearing on all pages), inbound links (links appearing on other sites but pointing to your site), and alternate text given on your images play a significant role in natural indexing of your site. You can expect better ranks only if your website is equipped with all the above-described things.

One more thing that is imperative for your site’s performance in search engines is the selection of right keywords and contents based on those keywords. Remember, if you are not targeting proper keywords, you may not get desired results. Therefore, to fix this issue, you need to do a proper analysis of your business domain and niche market along with keywords research before making any plans for online promotion of your website.

Usually, search engine tracks your site through two conventional mechanisms:

Links based tracking:
The success of your site in top rankings is determined by the number of links point to your site. If your site has lots of incoming links from another top-rated website in your niche, the possibility of success is more. Search Engine Submission, Affiliate Marketing, Directory Submission, Article Submission, Press Releases Distribution, and Blogs help a lot in achieving such quality inbound links.

Contents based tracking:
It's relatively a complex mechanism for tracking your website. It depends upon the relevance of META tags (keywords and description) with the contents of different web pages in your site. The freshness of contents on your website enhances your chances of getting indexed easily.

Apart from these two conventional mechanisms, you can also adopt other modes of online advertising like banner ad placements, paid submission, contextual advertising and social media marketing. These strategies are of great help if you want an effective interaction with your potential customers.
