Regaining Control of Your Time and Your Life

Willie Crawford

Many online marketers wake up one day to discover that what they have built is not a business but an all-consuming job. They've built an entity that totally depends upon THEM to keep it running, and it demands that they devote practically no time to family, fun, and things that make life more meaningful.

The Quest for Home Business Success

Wendy Betterini

When most of us dive into our first home business venture, we are filled with visions of wealth, comfort, security and freedom. We have a general idea of where we'd like to end up financially, and we work hard to get there. Some of us make it there quickly, while others may take a little longer. But at what point would we consider ourselves to be "successful?"

Melissa Brewer

The economy's hit a rough patch and you're trying to stay the course with your small business. It's perfectly understandable, right? It isn’t complicated - but it's hard.

Use Gratitude to Improve Your Attitude

Bonnie McFarland

In the 1980s, I started a daily practice that I still maintain today. I was attending an intense personal growth workshop at Deerwood, Minnesota. One night, as I lay on the top bunk in a rustic dorm room filled with a dozen women, someone mentioned her practice of gratitude.

Happiness

Margaret Paul, Ph.D.

Some people believe that achieving happiness is the purpose of life, yet the pursuit of happiness often leads to unhappiness. This is because happiness is actually a consequence of a different life purpose - the pursuit of evolving our souls in our ability to love ourselves and others. When achieving happiness is your goal, you might pursue this in 3 different ways:

Personal Self-Help

Gary M. Miller

When it comes to self-help and a spiritual path in life, everyone is different. There is no set of rules that can be applied to anyone across the board because each person has their own individual set o circumstances that are specific for them. Personal self-help means finding out what your specific issues are that are different from other peoples and then finding a way that you can fit these issues into a more common form of treatment that is convenient and readily available.

Stop Stressing - Resist the Urge to Time Travel

Larry Tobin

For creatures that supposedly only exist in the present, we sure do a lot of time traveling. We worry about tomorrow, we fret over yesterday, and all the while our current status gets neglected. Some of our most distracting worries aren't even the current ones.

The Quickest Way to Get Cheap Sustained Website Traffic

Willie Crawford

During a recent radio interview, one of the callers asked for several ways to get fast, cheap, sustained website traffic. She added on top of that "tall order" that she didn't want to use pay-per-clicks! Digging deeply into my toolkit of traffic generation techniques that had actually work beautifully for me, I suggested joint ventures and article marketing. Then I had to admit that article marketing often doesn't produce an immediate flood of traffic but that it can be sustained and highly targeted.

Do Your Homework before Investing in a Business Opportunity

Bill Platt

I have been providing advertising services to online businesses since 2000. I have helped many people become successful online through the use of my services. Too often, I only hear from people on the phone after they have lost tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars trying to launch their new online business ventures. They call me when they have just a few dollars left. I sometimes wish people would have found me first, so that I could have helped them find real success, instead of heartache.
