Appreciate little luxuries

What kind of person are you? Are you the kind of person who just goes with the fastest, easiest, and or cheapest option? If that sounds like you, you might want to rethink that and learn to appreciate little luxuries.

What exactly is a little luxury you might ask. No it's not jewelry. It's a method of doing something or using an object that makes a process better and more rewarding for you. I know that sounds a little confusing, let me give you an example. Say you want to get yourself cleaned up. You have the option of taking a quick shower or actually filling the tub, maybe lighting a candle and using bubble bath. Those die hard quick shower fans out there might not agree with this, but don't you feel better after taking a nice warm bath and relaxing in the tub for a few minutes. That's what a little luxury is. Doing something in a better manner that leaves you feeling better.

Another example is this. How many of you have nice wine glasses that you only save for special occasions? Why wait? Everyday is a special occasion. I know that wine  might be a little pricey to just have at any old time, but you can take your wine glasses and fill them with soda or juice. Try it. You  might just feel like you're at a cocktail party.

The main point is to incorporate a little bit of luxury into everyday tasks. It will add an element of beauty and elegance to your day. It will also lift your spirits and spur your imagination to think higher level thoughts and dream higher dreams. If you're drinking soda from a wine glass you  might start thinking of drinking Cristal. If you focus on that long enough by the law of attraction it will come to you.

Use Evernote to Keep Organized

Have you noticed since you started internet marketing you are now suffering from information overload? There are so many sites to keep track of, both your own and the ones you are learning from. There is a free solution however. Use Evernote to keep organized.

Evernote is a free app that can be downloaded or used online at www.evernote.com. With this software, you can make notes to yourself, remember webpages and even record audio. This makes the program great for a college student, because she can use it to record her lectures. It's also good for a businessman, because he can record meetings.

The software is very easy to use. You can add an Evernote button to google chrome so you can capture webpages. An option to make an Evernote note also appears when you right click on highlighted text with most browsers.

Here is a great video about Evernote:

Take Time Out for Fun

You may notice something. When you first start internet marketing you might be working more then you did in your regular job. This is quite common, but don't let it get you down. Make sure you take time out for fun.

The reason you might be working more at first is because everything relies on you. Also if you work hard now in the future you won't have to work as much. This can put a strain on your life and relationships. Make sure you take time out for fun. Play with your pets, do fun things with your family, and go places you want to go. The nice thing about being able to go somewhere during the middle of the week is it is never crowded. Take advantage of this.

Taking breaks also serves another purpose. It will recharge you. If you take a break and do something fun, you will come back to work in a better frame of mind with new ideas. Sometimes by focusing and thinking about something else you will come up with an innovative idea to solve a problem that you have been working on.

Here's a great YouTube video to watch:

Zen Bodi Shape and Zen Bodi Fit: Helping me Bring Sexy Back!

Well like everyone else in the United States, I made a resolution to get into shape. Unfortunately I have some health issues which make losing weight a little more difficult. I've been trying for months and haven't lost a pound or an inch. All that changed when I found Zen Bodi Shape and Zen Bodi Fit.

Zen Bodi Shape and Zen Bodi Fit are two products that work together. Their main purpose is to make you feel full faster. They do this in a completely natural way. Zen Bodi is carefully formulated to balance your metabolism. It's a targeted, holistic approach to weight management. By curbing cravings, burning fat, and building muscle, Zen Bodi opens the path to health and getting into shape.
 
The Zen Bodi lines offer several benefits too:
  • Promotes metabolic wellness
  • Promotes fat loss
  • Helps decrease carbohydrate and sugar cravings
  • Helps control appetite and hunger
  • Supports healthy blood sugar levels
  • Supports healthy cholesterol levels
All this technical stuff aside. I know it works. I have been taking it less then a month at a little less then the recommended dosage and I have already lost 9 pounds and an inch off my waist. The awesome thing is I didn't have to change my diet or how often I exercise (which is not very often, but I'm working on that.)

Focus on One Thing at a Time

How many times have you been watching TV, checking email, and talking on the phone at the same time? A lot of people do things like this all the time. Here's the important question though. What do you remember from the TV show, phone conversation, and email? My guess is it isn't too much. That's ok. multitasking might not be for you. If that's the  case just focus on one thing at a time.

Studied have shown that women have an advantage over men at multitasking. They are just genetically better suited to do it. This may come from humans early evolution when men were hunters, while women were gatherers and caretakers of children. Men would work together to hunt one large animal at a time. While women would gather plants to eat and sort them, all while they were caring for children. Because of this, men have evolved to have laser focus, while it's easier for women to do multiple things at the same time.

Here are some tips to help you focus on one thing at a time.

  1. If you're having trouble concentrating, work in a quiet place.
  2. Use a to do list for your day.
  3. Use a planner and plan your day. Make time for all your meetings plus tasks you need to do that day.
  4. Stick to your schedule.

How to Build Your Business when you Have No Free Time

Let's face it, not everyone has time to sit around all day marketing in their underwear. Some people have a day job or other commitments. If this is the case for you, you're probably wondering how to build your business when you have no free time.

One way is to sneak business into your already busy day. You probably run errands during the day or commute to and from work. On each of these trips, even if it's just for five minutes, you could make a call to a prospect. If you think about this you will be making two calls a day on five days. That is 10 calls you've managed to make in a week. That is definitely better then no calls made during the week.

Do you go out to lunch? This is time that you can spend making calls or even using your laptop to do some work. Even if you don't leave your building, you can make a few calls in the break room or cafeteria. If each call lasts five minutes, In an hour you will have made sixty calls.

Another way is to think of all your commitments. Maybe you play cards for a couple hours one night a week. Maybe you spend Friday and Saturday nights at the bar with your friends. What is this worth to you? Is it worth it to temporarilly forgo these activities for a short time while you build a business that will eventually allow you to quit  your job later? By giving up those activities now, you will end up having more time to work your business now. Later this will result in much more free time when you are able to quit your full time job and only work a few hours everyday on your business.

Finally, stop using the excuse that you don't have time to work an at home business. You have more time then you think. It may require sacrifices now, but in the end you'll make more money and have more time freedom later.

The Goal of Facebook Marketing

Many marketers approach marketing on Facebook all wrong. They look at it as a place to spam links all over their wall and in groups. Unfortunately using these tactics achieves little to no success. People aren't on Facebook to buy things usually. They are there to make friends, chat, play games, and share experiences. Trying to market to them by just pitching links doesn't work.

The way to market on Facebook is to focus on building relationships. Treat each person you talk to as a new friend. Get to know her. Ask questions about their life, activities, and thoughts. Find out whatever you can about them. While you're doing this you are qualifying them to see if they would be a good fit for your business or if they would be interested in your product.

The way to do this is to find out about their likes and dislikes. Find out if they are happy in their current job. Find out what makes them unhappy. If you find they are truly unhappy, offer a solution that you can provide. For example if t hey say that there isn't enough training you might say, "My company has hours of training from 6 and 7 figure earners." One thing though, if they are truly happy, wish them well and leave it at that. Remember to check back in after a couple months to see how they are doing. You just might catch them when they are looking for a new opportunity.
