Have you discovered your purpose in life? Do you have long-term goals? Finding and focusing on your long-term goals is a powerful cure for procrastination. A vision is simply a statement of what you want to achieve in life, and how you plan to achieve it. Without a vision, it’s easy to fall into a lifestyle of procrastination. And without a clear statement of your vision, you’re more likely to give up on projects in the face of difficulties.
If you haven’t written your vision, you need to make this your No. 1 priority. Your goals and your attention will shift from one project to the next, year after year, if you don’t have a vision to guide you.
- Make a written list of your lifetime goals. Wishing won’t make it happen-writing down a goal is the first action you can take to conquer procrastination. One research study discovered that people who write down their goals earn ten times more than people who don’t. You may think you have a goal, but if you haven’t written it down, research suggests your chances of accomplishing it are small.
- Break down your long-term goals into measurable tasks. This is the only way you can stay focused enough to keep moving toward your long-term goals. Without a series of clearly-defined milestones to measure your progress, you can delude yourself into thinking that you’re moving toward a goal when in fact you haven’t taken the first step yet. Do you constantly miss deadlines? Do you make up reasons to justify why you didn’t finish an important task, rather than tackling it and getting it done? Are you sincere enough to recognize the real reason why you missed your deadline? Do you have a written plan of attack for finishing the job without further delay?
- Perfectionism is one of the main causes of procrastination. Recognize the difference between striving for excellence and getting stuck in a vicious circle of perfectionism. Ask yourself what type of work demands perfectionism. If the job you’re doing is not the type that requires perfectionism, then remember that your goal must be excellence rather than perfection.
- Always keep a journal or idea book with you. Use spare time to jot down ideas about how you plan to attack your next goal. When you’re working on one project, what do you do when you get random ideas about other things? Do you write them down? Writing is a great way to use spare time and unleash your creative thinking and problem-solving skills. Don’t worry about spelling or grammar-just get your thoughts down as quickly as you can. If you need to show what you’ve written to someone else, you can revise it later.
Remind yourself that every task you face today is part of a divine plan for your life. “There is a divinity that shapes our ends, rough-hew them how we will,” Shakespeare wrote. You were created to accomplish more than you think you can-do some “rough hewing” on your life’s goals today.

Been trading stocks since the early 90’s and online since 1999. Loving every minute of it. I “work” a maximum of 3 hours a day. Most of that is on my web business. Stock trading takes about 10 minutes a week.
I trade momentum stocks on a weekly basis. Using my checklist and follow my stocks. I catch some of the biggest moves in the stock market. By watching price and volume. It’s all there.
Forget expensive technical trading systems. You do not need them. Simplicity is the key to big profits.
Most people now focus on short-term, day trading methods. Jumping form stocks to futures to FX. It takes time to learn stock trading. Stick to one method. Go longer in time frame and I promise you will make more money with much less stress than those frantic short-term traders.
Life’s too short to watch the stock quote machine all day.
I offer quite a few free books, reports and software. So go along to my site and sign up and see what I have to say every week. (once a week)

Unless you have maps of the local areas,which can pile up and be messy too,good luck.
My family and I went on a vacation a few months back.We traveled from NY to Florida.Going from State to State was the easiest part,as that’s what Interstate Highways were designed for.But it’s when you want to get off of them for a short bit, for whatever reason,that the hassle begins.Although we only managed to get lost a couple of times during the entire trip down and back it was truly aggravating when we did.
Been there,done that,right? Solution?…Invest in a GPS system!You’ve seen them advertised on TV before..and No you don’t have to buy a vehicle with one built in,you can buy a stand alone unit at a very reasonable price.(For those who are unaware)Even if you don’t take a lot of long trips you’d be surprised at how much you’d use one even locally.Not only will one get you from point A to point B,they will also show where the restaurants,motels,parks,etc..are!Some even have MP3 players built in!!
Want more info? Check out my blog at www.topgpsnews.com
P.S.
If you have one of these and still manage to get lost..you can blame it on the unit and then ask for directions!!!!

fast, then you’re in luck! How does 11 days sound? That’s
the duration of the diet!
Would you like to look better, feel better and have more
energy in less than 2 weeks without starving yourself? Then
this is the perfect diet for you.
Fat Loss 4 Idiots is a weight loss diet plan geared towards
anybody looking to lose weight who has already tried (and
failed with) all the “fad” diets around today.
Most people are overweight because of a few basic factors:
1)Eating the wrong foods
2)Eating the wrong types of calories
3)Eating with the wrong meal patterns
Fat Loss 4 Idiots takes all the guess work out of what to
eat, when to eat and how much to eat. With their convenient
On-Line Diet Generator you automatically get a new meal
plan every day. This is what’s called the Idiot Proof Diet.
Here it is in a nutshell, you get to eat 4 meals a day but you
have to drink a lot of water too so you stay fairly full. The
best part of the diet is that you can eat however much you want
at each meal! This way you’re fully satisfied and not feeling
hungry right after you just ate like you do when on a highly
reduced calorie diet.
Simply answer about 14 questions about a few different foods
and then pick one. You’ll get a diet menu generated for you
and that is what you follow. After your initial 11 days you get
3 days to “break the diet” and eat anything you want.
Exercise (yes, that dreaded word!) is imporatnt too. Walking
is what they recommend at 2 thirty minute sessions or 1 45
minute session per day which isn’t too stressful on the body,
budget or time consumed. You do get results very quickly which
keeps you motivated to continue.
Here’s some of what you can look forward to with this diet plan:
*Lose 9 lbs. or more evry 11 days
*Learn how to stop retaining water
*Be able to eat late at night and still lose weight (never

great product to choose because it’s inexpensive and it works!
I highly recommend it! Try it today.

Albert Einstein once said of success, “You have to learn the rules of the game. And then you have to play better than anyone else.”
Albert couldn’t have been more spot on with this philosophy if he wanted to be…
You see, if you want to make ridiculous amounts of money on the Internet with a home based business of your own then you need to understand the rules of the game…
And then you need to play better than everybody else or at least as well.
So…how exactly is it that you learn the rules so that you can play better (and more profitably) than everybody else?
That’s the proverbial $64 question.
You go to an expert at making money. That’s how.
That’s what I do and how I arrive at copy for my newsletter, SecretOnlineProfitStrategies.com.
One of the people I have profiled is Nick Marks.
My friend, Nick Marks, has been making millions online for years now. Maybe you’ve heard of him and maybe you haven’t.
He’s not someone that tries to get his name in lights, rather he is simply someone that quietly makes a fortune (and I do mean fortune) online.
Think you could learn a thing or two from a millionaire? What if he took the EXACT system he personally used to become a millionaire…
Documented it…and packaged it in a step by step format that reads like an A-Z of success?
With that in your hands you would discover everything you’d need in order to become ultra successful and profitable yourself…
Well…that’s exactly what Nick has done. He’s just released his Automated Millions program which is a step by step diary of his success…
With his coveted methods and profit techniques outlined in great detail.
This is a limited opportunity though…because Nick has set a cap on the number of members. So you need to check out www.MillionsAutomated.com immediately, before he fills all the open spots.
With the way people are already raking it in I wouldn’t be surprised to see this offer off the table in just days.
Here’s To Your Incredible Success,
Danny

If you don’t have anti virus tools on your PC than you are nut! Ok, lets say you got all these protection, then you should know that all these protection can’t detect any new malware until the software’s publisher update it database… here I got some tips/ways to optimize your PC safety…
1.Enable Automatic Update:
Over here, I only mention on Window XP O/S. So, 1st go to My Computer, then right click it. Choose Properties, then go to Automatic Update menu. make sure you click on Automatic Download. You can choose, how frequent you want it to update and on what time. I encourage you to set it on everyday. After that, once a month visit Microsoft at windowsupdate.microsoft.com and let it scan your PC system and then download everthing labeled “critical”. Remember, every month, no exception!
2.Turn off scripting behaviors in Internet Explorer:
Viruses and worms are spread through web pages scripts. Over here I’ll talk about IE and Firefox only, on how to use it to block this threats.
In IE click Tools, Internet Options, and then Security. After that choose Earth icon, under ‘Security Level Zone’, click custom level. The settings in the dialog have three options: Disable, Enable, and Prompt. If you choose enabling anything, then you are in trouble, but being prompted every time a script or ActiveX control wants to run will drive you batty. In any event, disable ‘Download unsigned ActiveX controls’, ‘Initialize and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe’, ‘Active scripting’, and ‘Scripting of Java applets’. Set ‘Java permissions’ to High Safety.
With scripts disabled, many of your favorite Web sites may not open. To overcome this, all you need to do is just add your trusted web URL in IE Trusted Site List. Open IE and click Tools, Internet Options, Security. Select the Trusted Sites icon, click Sites, and then enter the URLs one at a time. Uncheck Require server verification (https:) for all sites in this zone, and click OK.
Meanwhile for Firefox, go to Tools, Option, then Content. Enable the ‘Pop-up Blocker, Java and Java Script. Then go to Security, Check the box ‘warn me when site to install add-on’ and ‘Tell me is a site I visit is a suspected forgery’. You can choose either 1, by asking Google or form the download list. Thats it! simple… ![]()
3.Control what starts up with Windows:
Many worms place a reference to themselves in a portion of the Windows Registry that defines what programs start up with Windows. I got 2 freeware that I read it review from magazine, but I never try it yet… from the review this freeware are good. They are Spybot-Search & Destro, and WinPatrol. These 2 combination can control what gets added to this list. If you like to, you can try it, It free!
4.Use a software and a hardware firewall:
If your PC equip with Free ZoneAlarm others firewall software, you still not fully safe. If you using broadband internet, you should consider using Belkin, D-Link, Linksys, and other vendors sell inexpensive broadband gateways. They can bounce back worm attacks that otherwise would reach your computer.

It is a state of remaining alive after series of trials. It can be tested through many ways. One best way to test it is through camping. Camping has been a very thrilling activity of humans. It is commonly done in remote areas like forests or far-away islands. Due to this reason, much preparations are being done before setting off to go camping.
The school that I happen to be a student is the discipline of “Survival Camping”. This type of camping is for camping’s sake and can be done anywhere. It does not require scenes, or anything for that matter except for a hidden forest. The question is, What is “survival camping” ?
It is the process of eliminating all your camping gears but what you can have in your pockets or in a small pack,and moving towards the woods. The most touch approach would mean taking no food, no water, no shelter, nor lights, etc… Why? Well, it is not that I don’t have all the gears and gizmos, in fact my basement is replete with stoves, tents, sleeping paraphernalias, fishing poles and other related things. It’s all about staying keen and maintaining your mental acumen even under duress. It’s about a fresh outlook. It’s about wearing your scars like sigs of triumphs.
Enjoyment? It is Not experienced always. Sometimes you starve. Sometimes you shake in coldness. Sometimes you head home early. (Rarely) But, there are moments when everything seems to happen uncontrollable and you found yourself into the survival zone. Trusting yourself. Boldness. Faith. Self-introspection. If you are in survival camping you do not have room for bad thoughts. Daylight provides only sufficient time to find all you need.
This type of nerve-wracking camping is surely not meant for everyone. I do feel however that getting the ropes of fundamental survival can be rewarding.
You will have an internal storage of knowledge that could enable you to survive in the most difficult situations. It will also give you a full appreciation for all the things in your life that you may have ignored and not given much focus.
Right now, the STRONG WARNING! Attempt not to try this from scratch knowing nothing. And do not see the cruelty of the backcountry with little emphasis. If you do not know, my advice is please do not go! It is true, you will learn but this is not a hobby or some outdoor sports to be taken less seriousness. Even one night your out in the cold when the temperature drops can get your life. The cold surface of the earth will lessen your body temperature which could lead to serious illness. (If your body loses heat faster than it can be replaced.) This is just one of many perils of camping in general.
The unavoidable challenges of survival camping:
1. Making fire without any matches nor lighters.
2. Purified water and its source
3. Housing
4. Food (Reminder: If you intend to harvest riotous game, be certain to keep to all local game rules)
5. Lastly enjoyment.
These are just a some examples. If formal study is irrelevant then try getting yourself gradually by taking time to begin a matchless fire next time you go to the woods while in camping. Slowly you will develop the tactics to get survival camping a try.
I really wish that based from this review I have at least enticed some of you to have this type of camping a great start. It is not for the weak-hearted, but as the saying goes, “NO GUTS NO GLORY” May the force be with you! And let me know what happens.

cross promotions are one of the most productive
ways to make high volumes of sales on the
Internet.
Today I want to talk about why they work so
well, and how you can make the most of them to
explode your online income.
Traditionally, JVs are most common between two
people who have created a product and are
selling it online. But that needn’t be the case
and I will tell you shortly of a way in which
you can get all the benefits, traffic and sales
of a JV without even having a product of your
own.
But first lets look at the principals of it:
What actually happens in a JV cross-promotion?
Webites promote other websites for two main
reasons:
1. To earn income from commission sales.
2. To pay, or earn, favors.
The first of these you might expect, the second
is more intricate.
You see, when you’re running an online business,
your options and your growth are restricted if
you try doing it all on your own.
Sure, there’s pay-per-click advertising, article
marketing, traffic exchangers, and a variety of
ways you can draw traffic to your site by paying
for it.
But nothing beats personal recommendation.
Its human nature: We all prefer to buy through
personal recommendation than by enticing
advertisements.
And JV’s, or cross-promotions are all about
personal recommendation.
The only thing is - as every super-affiliate
knows - even if you’re offering attractive
commission rates, the site that’s getting
promoted always gets more out of the deal than
the JV partner who’s doing the promoting. Look
at this comparision:
The JV partner doing the promotion gets:
1. A ‘notional’ favour from the site it
promotes.
2. Commission payments, hopefully paid in good
time but always at the discretion of the site
owner.
The site being promoted gets:
1. Lots of new list members
2. Lots of Sales
3. Lots of recognition
Which would you rather?
Can you see now why the benefit isn’t split
evenly in a JV deal?
This is one of the reasons why it is more
difficult than many people think to get JV
partners promoting for you.
No matter how attractive your commission
percentages are, you will always be getting more
out of the deal than your JV partner. Especially
if your landing page is a list-building squeeze
page.
But there is an option available. Especially if
your aim is to build a list.
You could run a MyViralSpiral site.
MyViralSpiral is a webserver script that gives
you a complete solution for building a list and
a business online.
One of its features is that it turns the above
JV example on its head to provide more of a win-
win for both parties. Here’s what you can do
with it:
As a listbuilder, you can offer a squeeze page
for your JV partner to promote. He then sends
his list to the squeeze page, where they sign up
to your list. Then, this is when it gets
interesting:
Your JV partner can decide which offer page his
signups are directed to after signup.
Gone is the traditional method whereby once his
leads have signed up to you they’re yours, to
direct wherever you like. With MVS, your JV
partner can choose what to show them *after*
they’ve joined your list…
It might be to his own product, or an affiliate
link somewhere else - or he may choose to use
his affiliate link for your product (in keeping
with the normal method).
The point is, your JV partner has more say about
who benefits from his promotion and how. And
that kind of power makes all the difference when
it comes to getting others to promote for you,
and build your list.
This is one of many characterisics of
MyViralSpiral that make it well worth a good
look if you want to start building JV
relationships.
