I have beliefs, I am not my beliefs.
I have thoughts, I am not my thoughts.
I have feelings, I am not my feelings.
I do things, I am not my actions.
I am the consciousness that creates and then observes my beliefs, thoughts, feelings, and actions.

'AHA'
How many times in our lives do we have the 'AHA' moments and how many times do we actually listen to them?
They are put there to move us along our path because we asked for a solution, begged for an answer, prayed for help. Then it comes along and most of the time what do we do with it? We push it off to the side thinking that:
- the answer can't be that simple
- I could never do that
- that could take a lifetime
- is it really worth the effort
- what would people think
Open the closet door and there they sit, all covered in dust, piled on top of each other and we just close the door again to wait for the next 'AHA' moment that could be the answer to our problems.
For once why don't we just say, 'Oh my its really that simple' and do it.
That's all!

Twitter and the new Twilight Zone!
Well I can safely say that I have crossed over into the zone of no return. What a fascinating, incredible world we live in, that at the flick of a keystroke we are in the midst of a wonderful, social network with people anywhere in the world.
Communication is instantaneous and can be either personal or open for all to view. The amazing amount of people from every walk of life, are there communicating in what ever form is best suited to them. Now you may not agree with all that is said but you can not help but be overwhelmed by the complete intricacy that wraps itself thru out this network.
I will say I was totally gobsmacked by how fast things can transpire and I was in the middle and was getting swallowed by the shear mass of followers I achieved in one day and the reason I was so overwhelmed is not understanding the protocol of this social network.
If your up for it, I encourage you to 'Sit down, hold on and get prepared to type, respond and read'. But before you go off the deep end like I did, find someone that can get you a bit of heads up or your going to be over your head in a very short period of time.
Now I must get back and do more responding and reading of websites but at least now I know what I am doing (I think) and I can type and relax with a nice glass of red.

Free E-Book for online home based businesses
Well it's finally done and ready to be read, 'The road to being an on-line millionaire’ is now available by going to www.how2handbook.com.
Twilight Zone of the Electronic Age
Who has time to complete requests when their computer is trapped in the twilight zone? How is a person suppose to keep up with running a business, with everything that has to be done, then in the midst of it some invisible little pesky virus gets into your computer and just mucks everything up! Files get moved or disappear, programs don't work properly, delays that throw the most rigorous schedule into chaos.
Does anyone on the other side of this computer screen have any idea whats going on, absolutely not, they just know that whatever you promised is not getting done as you said it would.
You can spend days and weeks fighting with that invisible little pest and you either fix it or find some way around him. I am beginning to see the value in 2 computers and if your in business you can best think about it. One for the most important things in your business that should go anywhere near an internet and then a computer to deal with online issues.
A memory stick is good for transporting the data back and forth between the two computers but be wary, a memory stick is a great place for viruses to be transported. I hope I've made your day by giving you something to think about.

Companies not clear on the concept
All we hear about these days is doom and gloom. How bad the economy is and how much worse it is going to get.
Well why is it then, that I can contact a company (advertising to be exact) set it all out so that, they know what I want to do, what time frame I'm looking at and the budget I am willing to spend. Don't get me wrong, I didn't go over the top in budget but I didn't skinny out either. They were the ones that told me the time frame vs spending that I would be looking at and I handed them a credit card and said, 'lets do it'.
They told me I would be contacted in a couple of days by my own advertising account manager, we'd go over every thing, set it all up and then we'd be off and running but I never got that call back, they never charged my credit card and I received no advertising. I know what your thinking and yes, I did call them back and left messages on their voice mail with still no response from anyone at the company. Considering all these facts is it any wonder that I'm a little hot under the collar?
To top it off, they did come recommended by an associate and word of mouth advertising is the best you can get. Now they have taken a possible long term client and turned the great word of mouth advertising that they did receive and any future good referrals from me, into someone that is NOT going to recommend them to anyone. How long do you think this company will stay in business if they continue on this path.
So some times it's not all doom and gloom because of the economy but just because of bad business practices.
It was once said that it takes months to build a foundation with a customer but seconds to destroy it. We didn't even get to start building it before it was destroyed.
That's all.
