1. Be persistent with style. You can get a lot more done atCB012366
work when you have the tenacity to deal with difficult
people without losing your cool. Never give up.

2. Exude a magnetic charm that makes people want to help
you. In stores and restaurants staff will go out of their
way to serve the few customers who know how to make them
feel special. The same applies at home and at work.

3. Have the courage to ask for more. When you are working
hard without getting the rewards you deserve you need to
stand up and be noticed. Successful people know the power of
asking.

Do you dream of having a book published, but don’t knowCB009254
where to turn? Already have a book, but unsure of how to
promote it? Looking for cost effective high-return
strategies to market your book? If you answered yes to any
of these questions, then the following information is for
you.

Many writers and aspiring authors are under the mistaken
belief if their book is published by a publishing house they
can sit back and watch sales miraculously happen. Nothing
could be further from the truth. Fact is, competition to
have your manuscript noticed and published by a large house
is extremely fierce. Additionally, no matter who publishes
your book, you absolutely must take an active roll in
marketing, promoting and selling your book.

So What Is Meditation?
======================

Meditation is a way to transform and heal ourselves. When we
meditate, we allow the swirl of ideas and thoughts to slow
down to the point where we find a calm and positive
connection with ourselves. Although there are many different
ways to meditate, all styles teach the directing of the
attention in order to re-connect with the part of yourself
that is most real and most true.

Healing is a special gift that any human being can have. It
is fortunate that we are provided with the opportunity toj0437636
acknowledge and develop it. There is no difference from any
human being performing healing and Christ healing. The only
difference is if you belong to a large institution like a
Catholic church where healing is sometimes defined as a
miracle. Many great healers came into our plane and
performed their miracles, such as Edward Cayce, Harry
Edwards and many others known and unknown to us. The good
part of it is that we are all healers. The only difference
between a full pledged healer and any one of us is very
simple. A healer is a human being who has dedicated his or
her life in order to help humanity and to show us that we
are not alone, by becoming a channel for the spirit to do
their work. Many powers are beyond our sense of
understanding or belief system. If this is your path in this
lifetime then this will become part of your life because you
have already been chosen for that path.

I had a dream the other night.Newborn's Feet Cradled in Parent's Hand

I was Supermom. I had it all. Comfortable lifestyle, cute
kids, great husband.

And I felt trapped.

Huh?

In talking with other moms, I learn this feeling is the norm
more than the exception. We want it all, but don’t have our
own personal definition of ‘all’. Which is a problem. If
we’re achieving based on others’ expectations, we’re bound
to come to a time of disappointment. On the other hand,
genuinely discovering our own journey is time-expensive and
not backed by some sort of cosmic guarantee!

My grandfather used to speak of the days when people drovej0438847
the world. It was a time when people were proud to
contribute and move society and industry forward at full
steam. But, people were proud of themselves! However, before
he died, one of his observations was that “we have come to
mediocre times.”

I was a bit appalled at that statement because, to me, these
times were the epitome of existence! However, over the
years, I began to see what he meant. It is not so much that
our advances are mediocre, but it is the state of humanity
and society that has become mediocre in comparison. Yet, we
don’t see it as such because we live in these times daily
and have no real comparison.

Endings and beginnings. Time for release, celebration, andj0437327
setting new intentions. When done consciously, we will
create what it is that we really want for next year.

The Mental De-Tox & Re-New process will help you release and
purge negative thoughts and feelings that belong to events
of the past year, and to free up energy for focusing on what
you truly wish to create in the new year. (You may also
consider doing last year’s process – Wringing Out and
Ringing In. If you would like a copy of this exercise, email
me and I will send it to you.)

Daily meditation is the single greatest and easiest practice you can do to relax, restore your energy and love yourself.j0437325
To reconnect to your spirit and experience who you truly are, this is the first step, but it will only take you so far.

Many successful people like Oprah Winfrey, Marianne Williamson and Deepak Chopra swear by it. Why? Because there is wisdom, peace and joy in being present with stillness. In today’s world it is almost a radical act to be still, breathe and simply be with yourself without any distractions.

THE NEXT SURVIVOR SERIES
Six married men will be dropped on an island with one car and 3 kids each for six weeks.
Each kid will play two sports and either take music or dance classes. They will also attend cubs, brownies, sea cadets or similar.
There is no fast food.
Each man must:
take care of his 3 children, keep his assigned house clean, correct all homework, and complete science projects, also, cook, do laundry, and pay a list of ‘pretend’ bills with not enough money.
In addition, each man will have to budget in money for groceries each week.

What a lovely man.
He talked about his new book, Developing Mediumship.
I have started to read it and it is so easy to follow, I know I am going to enjoy it.
On another note, I have a failing, I call it that any way.
I am a gadget freak!

The Breakfast Meeting!
We all know the scenario! You are sitting over your breakfast at some un-godly hour trying to hide the yawn when someone suggests that it would be a good idea to “introduce ourselves” to the other attendees.
A sort of “elevator pitch”. It means you need to explain what you do in about 1 minute in a polished clear manner.
In the social business world it is important that you can deliver a clear verbal marketing message that can create an important first impression and will attract new clients.

“Had I but plenty of money, money enough to spare,” wrote Robert Browning.
Money is the greatest attribute of riches.
It is a universal desire, money is the materialization of riches, the stuff that makes the rest possible.
Are you looking for financial security? For retirement, for education or leisure?
Riches are the overflowing abundance of material possessions – houses, cars, boats, furnishings -everything you ever wanted.
For others, riches come in the form of satisfaction and personal independence. Centuries ago, Horace wrote, “By right means, if you can, but by any means, make money.”

At last my official blog website is actually finished. My intention of blogging for a living has become a reality.
Ok, what next?
The first thing I need to do is to go back over the archives and delete all my earlier muses.
In the early days, as is usual for blog virgins, my impression of a blog was something that no sane person would ever read or be interested in. So my first blogs were indulgent, grammatically terrible and some were even downright silly.

What to do….
My page:
Tell people who you are and what you do. The more detail here the better, after all you’re not going to make business contacts if you hide yourself away.

Members:
Let’s you see who are members of the network. You can find people and send them messages. Connect, connect, connect.

Take your tarot cards and lay them out in front of you. You will see that your tarot deck is in 2 sections.
The minor ‘arcana’ and the major ‘arcana’.

The word “arcana” means secrets or mysteries.

Did you find yourself running from something in your dream last night?

When something or someone is chasing you in a dream, it can signal a need to face up to things and to stop running away from your responsibilities.

Did you see someone who has died?
