“I believe life is constantly testing us for our level of commitment,
and life’s greatest rewards are reserved for those who demonstrate
a never-ending commitment to act until they achieve.

As simplistic as this may sound, it is still the common denominator
separating those who live their dreams from those who live in regret” Anthony Robbins

There is another common denominator which separates successful individuals and successful businesses, large or small, from the also-rans – creating and communicating their VISION of what and where they wish to be.

Those who know me will verify that I am certainly not talking about some meaningless statement that people may think looks good in brochures and annual reports but cannot be communicated effectively to those that matter i.e. those that need to make it happen.

In simple terms, a carefully worded and clearly communicated vision…

Now let’s put this into the context of you, me, anyone…

“Inherently, each one of us has the substance within to achieve whatever our goals and dreams define.” from Mark Twain

There are hundreds, if not thousands, of ezine articles, ebooks and so on with fancy titles like

How to Succeed with a Millionaires Mind Set or
I am going to Reveal the One Secret the Internet Gurus Do Not Want You to Know

The daft thing is, apart from a serious and well written few, most of these articles try to suggest that this is all unique to doing business on the internet.

Sorry, but this is a lot of brown stuff!

Think of your favourite sports star, athlete, business person, mentor. What’s the one thing they have in common?

A Sustained Will to Be Successful.

More importantly, think of someone you know or perhaps have read about that battled with a serious illness and won…

This following short poem says succinctly what it would take me pages to explain…

“If you think you’re beaten, you are,

if you think you dare not, you don’t.

If you like to win, but you think you can’t,

it is almost certain you won’t.

If you think you’ll lose, you’re lost,

for out in the world we find,

success begins with a fellows will -

it’s all in the state of mind.

If you think you’re outclassed, you are,

you’ve got to think high to rise,

you’ve got to be sure of yourself

before you can ever win a prize.

Life’s battles don’t always go to the stronger or faster person,

but sooner or later the person who wins is the person

WHO THINKS THEY CAN!”

Napolean Hill’s Think & Grow Rich

No, it’s not always easy (like me, you probably know that from your own experiences). However, that does not stop it from being true.

As you build your business offline or online,

As you build the resolve to deal with an important challenge,

As you continue to build the lifestyle you perhaps only dream about, build your will to win.

Purchasing underwear for girls should be one of the most sweet things boyfriends could do – and the most traumatic and dodgy present to purchase.

Keep in mind it’s not your gift, but your woman’s. Don’t buy leather, PVC, or any super sexy outfit, decide on something shiny or lacey and should be safer. Check this sexy tie side knickers, polka petrus bow thongs, cherry bomb boyshorts and silk satin plunge bras from Mimi Holiday.

Don’t try to speculate your woman’s dimension, preferred design Sadly, women don’t use S, M, large, and XL sizes like bloke. Do your examination initially. Wait in anticipation of she depart and then search her pants drawer.

Try to undestand things with the tag in it and make a note of the shapes and designs she likes. Remember that trimmings like lace and ornaments can be sophisticated and sexy if you recognize what your spouse loves. I established that my wife likes Lingerie lingerie. I had no idea Lingerie were simply for the beach.

Lingerie sets instead can be in effect any tight, skimpy, or little underwear that supplies less coverage to the midsection than customary undergarment, pants or knickers. In truth Bikini Bikinis clones what you see on the coastline.

The bikini turned into a US$811 million trade per annum and it is perhaps the on the whole admired female bathing suit around the globe as a result of the mishmash of the power of women and fashion.

It is a 3000 years old discovery. Bathing suit clothes put on by women for sport intent are shown on Greek vases and canvas dating back to 1400 BC.

An old artwork called “Bikini Girls” dating back to the Diocletian time (286-305 AD) in Italy shows a few ladies in mosaics on the flooring.

In Pompeii there are also numerous demonstrations of the Roman goddess Venere dressed in a beachwear.

The up to date swimsuit started to become known again at the beginning of 1900, when a femal swimmer, Annette Kellerman was arrested on a Boston seashore for having very tight beachwear that became accepted bathing costume for women by a few years later.

The current two piece was first designed by French engineer Louis Réard in 1946 and was an amazement when it became visible on French seaside in 1947. He called it after Bikini Atoll in the Pacific ocean, the spot of a nuclear explosion test on the first of July in 1946. The logic was that the explosion of thrill produced by it was supposed to be like a nuclear blast.

A propos of buying Lingerie for gift keep in mind that most shops will competently gift wrap your acquisition for you if you demand for a small charge and it is well worth paying a little extra for. In addition I recommend to store the receipt – just in case.

The booming real estate market has allowed many Americans to become “equity rich.” They may not have a lot of cash on hand, but they might have equity in their homes worth several hundred thousand dollars or more. Unfortunately, this increase in home wealth has spawned an equally booming business in equity theft, as more and more thieves find increasingly clever ways to con homeowners out of their equity, their homes, or both. One clever new scam involves companies that promise to completely “eliminate” a homeowner’s mortgage. For a fee of a few thousand dollars, these companies claim that a homeowner can have a free and clear title to their home without paying off the remaining debt. How does this scam work?

This scam is a bit more complicated than other scams that often use simple forgery of identity theft. In this “mortgage elimination” scam, the homeowner places his home in a trust with the mortgage elimination company as the trustee. The trustee files a long, tedious, frivolous, letter of complaint with the mortgage company, giving them a mere ten days to respond. Should the mortgage company not respond within ten days, and they frequently do not, the trust claims that they are then free of the mortgage obligation. Using a questionable power of attorney procedure, the trust then files with the local register of deeds for a release of the home’s title. This makes it appear that the home is now owned without a lien.

The legalities of this range from murky and questionable to outright fraud. It gets even worse when the trustee, claiming clear title to the home, takes out a home equity loan, cashes the check, and promptly disappears. The resulting mess often leaves the original homeowner with a pile of lawsuits, numerous visits from the police and the obligation to pay two mortgages. This scam is currently going on only in certain parts of the country, and isn’t yet widespread. Homeowners can easily avoid being taken by this scam by simply recognizing one simple truth – you cannot simply waive a mortgage obligation away without paying off the loan. Remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it is too good to be true.

From time to time, each of us will find ourselves in a rut of boredom and disinterest. We seem to lose our zest for life and feel tired, irritable and unmotivated. We want to hide under the covers rather than face the day. Perhaps you’re feeling overwhelmed by work, or sad about the pain and suffering in the world, or just bored with the routine of your daily life.

You are not alone. We all go through periods like this at some point. The good news is that we can do something about it. Here are some tips to help break out of the rut and feel excited about life again:

1) Take a “Time Out” – Prolonged stress can wear us down and zap any enthusiasm we once had. Before doing anything else, take a few minutes to breathe and just BE. Empty your mind of all stress and worry. This takes practice, but don’t give up! As thoughts come into your mind, gently push them back out and continue to keep your mind empty and calm. Take slow, deep breaths and let all of your muscles relax. Sit quietly and recharge your batteries. Try to do this daily, or even twice daily (morning and night). We need quiet time as much as we need anything else in life. Give yourself the gift of inner peace.

2) Get Inspired – Read something motivational, inspirational or uplifting. Look at some beautiful nature photos, or read something humorous. Consciously move your thoughts to a more positive place. Focusing on nothing but work and our daily tasks in life can leave us feeling pretty uninspired. It’s easy to turn it around if we want to. We just have to seek out things that will lift our spirits and our moods. Make it a point to laugh, be happy, joyful and lighthearted each day. Don’t wait for inspiration to come knocking on your door, go out and find it, or create it. Conjure up some funny or touching memories. Write them in a journal so you can go back and read them when you’re feeling down.

3) Get Excited – Think about the things you have planned for the day, and rekindle the enthusiasm you once felt for them. When we first begin a new project, or start a new job, we are excited about the possibilities and eager to get moving! Over time, we can lose that enthusiasm for a variety of reasons. Travel back in time for a moment, and think about what got you so excited at the beginning. What made your heart beat a little faster? Recapture that feeling and hang onto it! Even if your tasks aren’t anything to be really excited about, at least think of some positive benefits to doing them. For example, list the ways they will benefit your children, your spouse, yourself, your job or your home. Identify the payoff, and focus on that. Even mundane tasks have some benefits. Sometimes it’s just a matter of switching our mindset to see the positive side.

4) Baby Steps – Sometimes the hardest part is actually getting started. A project seems so monstrous that we cringe at the thought of all that time and energy we’ll have to expend. Instead of overwhelming yourself, start small. Set a timer for 15 minutes and just start working on it. Allow yourself to stop after 15 minutes if you really want to. But most often, once we actually start working on something, we won’t want to stop. Don’t focus on the big picture, look at the smaller details and take them on one at a time. Any large task seems manageable once we break it down into smaller steps.

5) Care of the Body – Sometimes our feelings of fatigue are caused by physical deficiencies, not mental. Be sure you are getting enough rest, eating food that nourishes your body, drinking enough water, getting enough exercise, etc. Especially when we’re very busy, we tend to grab the quickest, easiest meals, which aren’t always the best choice for our bodies. Eating a lot of highly processed foods and sugar is like putting watered-down gasoline into our cars. In order for our cars to run smoothly, we need to maintain them properly, and so it is with our bodies also. Remember, the body is the vehicle for the mind and soul!

Finally, remember to reward yourself from time to time, and be gentle with yourself! There will always be things that “need” to be done. But some of us take on way more than we can handle, and our lives turn into a pit of drudgery because of it. Try to eliminate the things that truly don’t bring you joy, or at least minimize the time you spend on them. Do what you can, and let the rest go. Or ask for help. Don’t feel you have to do everything yourself.

Remember that motivation, just like happiness, is something we CHOOSE. We may need to give ourselves a little push at the beginning, but once we get into the right mindset, it’s simple to stay there if we choose to.

Nothing ever stays the same. On the one hand we despise change yet on the other we don’t want to stagnate and become boring. Yet our habits keep us locked into a course of action day after day, year after year. The way we think, the way we behave, the way we experience things, the way we react to incidents, all are dominated by our habits. They are so strong that most of do not even know what they are. Whatever our habits are they keep us fixed in a particular perspective or behaviour. They stop us reaching our potential.

Our habits are basically involuntary acts we perform unintentionally and without thinking. We just are them. Yes. We are our habits. Whether, you lack confidence, find it difficult to make decisions, always arrive late for an appointment, can’t say no …, feel lonely, feel stupid, think others always know best…… these are all habits. That’s the bad news.

The good news is that you can change. Change is based on choice. Once you realise what your habits are, you have more chance of changing them. It may not be easy. It may be painful, sometimes. But it is also fun and rewarding because you are changing your life. You are opening yourself to see the possibilities of your potential. What you are capable of.

History shows us that there are four key ingredients to successfully change habits:

Reflection, Realisation, Resolve and Sustained Effort.

In other words all you have to do is imagine you are the gardener of your life:

Reflect on the state of your garden.
Realise what are weeds and what are flowers.
Remove the weeds
Replace the weeds with flowers and make a sustained effort to keep the garden clear of weeds you don’t want.

So. What is the largest weed in your garden? Which habit causes you most pain?

What is keeping this weed in place? What stops you from pulling it out?

Look at all the obstacles and think of the best method for eradicating the weed. Remember some weeds do not come out at first pull. They leave a little root behind. Some are better killed off with weed killer rather than a tortuous pull. Look for the best method for your weed.

Now, what flower would you like to plant in its place? What behaviour would you like to put in instead of the habit? You will need something because all of us that have changed habits are aware of the need for a transitory behaviour. A good example is giving up smoking. The transitory behaviour is either: something to do with your hands, instead of holding a cigarette; gum to chew when you would light a cigarette or a sweet to pop into your mouthy when you feel like a cigarette.

So what flower would you like to put in place of your weed?
The next phase is the key to success.

For all gardeners the next phase is the most easy and yet the most difficult. Make a sustained effort to keep the weed out of your garden. This is the key. It is so easy to say I’ve done it and walk away. Sustained effort can also be called zeal and enthusiasm. Be passionate about clearing your weed. Tell others what you are doing. Avoid incidents that would automatically set the weed off. Keep looking at your new flower. Have zeal and enthusiasm for your new flower. Keep focussed on the flower. Make a sustained effort to keep the new flower watered and the area around it free from weeds. Nourish it. Fertilise it. Talk to it. Gradually the new flower will blossom and the old weed disappear.

Remember: Nothing ever stays the same.

Good Luck

I am back, after a few days of vacationing with family. Weather was awesome, the beach was full of nasty jelly-fish, yuk! All-in-all, life has been good. I hope life has been as good for all of you.

Well I will start this article out by telling you that I did ROAR with CONFIDENCE when I was on vacation. I went to the beach several times and trust me, to walk the beach and play with a child and race her in nothing more than a small bathing suit, is a total ROAR for this girl. We seem to be constantly looking for an easy way out to gain confidence. I hate to share this reality check people, but confidence is something that we already have and have always had since our cute little butts were spanked at birth. Look no further, I have looked up the dictionary meaning of CONFIDENCE for your minds to grasp, here it is:

confi-dence…1. full trust:belief in the powers, trustworthiness, or reliability of a person or thing. 2 .belief in oneself and one`s powers or abilities: self-confidence: self-reliance, assurance which implies faith in oneself.

As you can see there, it is all inside of your head. You must belief in you. First and foremost, you must trust you and your abilities to survive with greatness and good feelings about who you are, what you look like, how you think, how you love, how you deal with unexpected events, but most of all how you continue to build your inner confidence, even when the going gets tough. There are so many outer elements that continue to test our inner confidence, that it’s no wonder we scramble at the best of times to smile, when we just want to scream. I have spoken of a few throughout my blogs: television, videos, reality shows, climbing of the “corporate ladder”, society`s constant attack on aging, over weight people, and please do not forget about the children.

Children are faced with fears that threaten their confidence all the time. They fear their parents will look down on them for not having the best grades. They fear their peers will toss them to the curb if they do not follow. They hear continuously how messed up their world has become, and how it is teaching them negative things. How can that not weaken their CONFIDENCE. It would kill mine. I’m just happy that I was strong enough to know the difference between WWF wrestling, cartoons and real life.

To ROAR with CONFIDENCE is as effective as telling the world to BITE ME! I love to say that as you all know.(winks) CONFIDENCE is not easy to keep strong, when we feel threatened inside, or we feel our relationship is being threatened. We immediately feel it is us, that are at fault, which in turn strikes down our confidence.

We need to trust in ourselves, trust that we know what we want and what is good for us. Your life is not suppose to be a debate on how you should fit in, or whether someone tells you how to look or feel about you. You are your life. Your lack of confidence removes you from who you are meant to be. Trusting and having CONFIDENCE in you does not mean that you will always be right about things, but it does give you strength to overcome your doubts, low self-esteem and correct your wrongs and rise above the lesser you.

I sometimes wonder why people do what they do. Is it because they lack confidence and feel that any type of attention will build their self-esteem? Or is it that they truly just do not care anymore and let themselves be the joke of the moment? I have the seen women in internet porn.(research purposes only) Now this is my opinion, so bear with me here: I am in no way judging anyone, but I do want to reach out to them and tell them there are better ways to build up confidence and feel wanted and appreciated. For the women that fall into the prostitution world and feel that is the only way to stardom; when did they lose their respect and self-esteem and when did they become afraid to ROAR with CONFIDENCE? Women that have been scorned and throw themselves away literally to the bar scene, where they become a piece of meat and are treated worse than a dog, you know that you are not happy there and that those roads to better feelings are not the right roads. How can one respect themselves if they have no strength to ROAR with CONFIDENCE? I cry for all women that have fallen into the traps of feeling that attention will bring them higher. They will never find their freedom to ROAR with CONFIDENCE if they continue to depend on anything or anyone outside of themselves to get them there.

You need to save yourselves. You stay in negative environments where you feel threatened because you need so much acceptance that you have been mislead to believe that it will strengthen your CONFIDENCE. You were born with what you need to save you! DO NOT wait for help. Help yourself. Do not cry to be rescued, it will not happen. YOU and you alone, have to make that climb. Just trust your feelings and follow them. Trust that you alone, can give yourself all the strength to ROAR with CONFIDENCE.

I am hoping, that through my website and these written thoughts, that some women out there will wake up and see that they are unique without all the negative attention they feel is the way. Just be YOU! You can only be your best as being you. Not by following someone else`s standards, but only fulfilling your own. Love you first and most. Strive to ROAR with CONFIDENCE and DO NOT let anyone take you down.

You are you, and that in itself is a very special gift that no one else has. The more I believe in me, the easier it is for me to grow stronger inside and fight all the negative elements that I come across day after day. Life is not easy, nor does it come with any promises. As I have said so many times, “What does not kill you, will only make you stronger”. Live those words people and I mean it when I say it, ” ROAR with CONFIDENCE”. It truly is a feel good tip. (ROARZ)

I seek myself in everything I do.

I find myself.

I dream my dreams wherever I go.

I become myself.

I ROAR with CONFIDENCE!

There are a lot of logical reasons why you might want a shed and fortunately there are garden sheds to meet just about every last requirement. Sheds can be bought just about everyplace but what you will see is the price will vary enormously. You should not have to forego the garden shed you need because it is excessively pricey though. A shed is something you buy once and use for a long time and when you have a look on-line you can obtain sheds at some silly prices. I don’t mean silly and cheap as in quality but as in cost. You’ll find you can obtain the garden shed you need for the price of the one you were about to settle for much cheaper and if you have a garden that you tend to every day you will almost in all likelihood require to look into wooden garden sheds as a place to put the fertilizer, water hose and tools and so on.

Protecting your garden tools and making them easily available is a real good idea. You can find sheds on the internet that are the very same sheds you’d buy in the shop. As A Matter Of Fact, you can go to the garden store and shop even touch them to find if it’s what you need and then you can go on-line and purchase it for a whole lot less. The difference in cost is remarkable!

A new generation of bettors should have spotted the slogan “offshore sports betting”, though a few might not be completely positive what it alludes to. An offshore gambling site inherently functions extrinsically to the control of a single nation alternatively it can mean a web based gaming internet site that bases its main computers inside the boundaries of a state in which networked sports gaming is not disallowed. In short therefore, it’s a wagering establishment operative outside of the supervison of the land of the player. Networked sports wagering sites are now governed by means of 3 administrations. These are the OSGA (the Offshore Gaming Association), the IGC (Interactive Gaming Council) and the Fidelity Trust Gaming Association FTGA.

The Offshore Gaming Association is a self controlling agency that presently keeps checks on the thriving overseas sports betting business with the task of to also give sports gaming fanatics the ability to pick out legitimate web based concerns to play betting games with. It works to support the legal rights of consumers, and in addition they don’t charge any membership costs. The Offshore Gaming Association are a well qualified and unbiased third party agency which reveals unbiased viewpoints, indicated by customer feedback, unprejudiced studies, calls, inside prompts and in addition dispenses inside news.

The Interactive Gaming Council are a non-profit-making organization. The organization was designed to supply a forum for concerned people to discuss matters also to further collective concerns in the world-wide web-based gaming trade, to establish scrupulous and also duty bound professional standard procedures and procedures that endeavor to improve buyer confidence in internet based betting products and benefits, and also to aid as the sports betting industry’s extensive procedure counselor and it also works as an info depot.

The Interactive Gaming Council has worked up a name for encouraging trustworthiness, fairness also believability by virtue of the rigid standards of integrity it establishes, also its appeal for honest concerns. The Interactive Gaming Council regulates overseas gaming via promoting a distinctive ten step set of precepts and in addition bills gaming businesses a payment to feature their logo. Displeased gamers can furthermore air any of their misunderstandings to the Interactive Gaming Council.

The FTGA was established in a venture to compose a standard which will raise the criteria of computer accessible sports betting sites. The IGC think that by carrying on business only with respected companies, they can mold a membership of the most fair and most efficient cyberspace gambling operations all over the globe.

There are establishments which coordinate the procedures of internet gaming and which should in time help to relieve most if not all of the insecurities felt by skeptics. Machine-accessible gaming sites are consistently dependable, now that private data shouldn’t be needed and in addition the dividends and the odds are always equivalent to a regular Vegas-style stake. These websites cut travel, but nonetheless keep the basic character, only these days you are enabled to game at your own pace.
