The Tragedy Of Life Is Not Found In Failure…

včera o 8:30

The tragedy of life is not found in failure but complacency. Not in you doing too much, but doing too little. Not in you living above your means, but below your capacity. It’s not failure but aiming too low, that is life’s greatest tragedy. Benjamin E. Mayes

I Don’t Think There’s Any Such Thing…

I don’t think there’s any such thing as setting your goals too high. The higher you set your goals, the more you are going to work. If you don’t reach them, then it’s okay, just as long as you set it and then give 100% of yourself. Dan Jansen

A Holiday Wish for You…

Štv, 15:58

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

Every year, I think long and hard about wishing you and my other customers and subscribers a Merry Christmas since it’s not very politically correct.

Know that my wish for you is not based in any specific religion. Rather, it is a wish for a happy, healthy, and prosperous holiday — no matter what your beliefs may be!

It is also a wish for 2010 to be your best year EVER so that you can truly live the life of your dreams, whatever that means to you!

When you think back upon the 2009 year, hopefully you have some high points that you remember fondly.

For many, it has been a challenging year financially as our economy continued to worsen. But don’t focus on the negative side of the economic slowdown!

Instead, look at the good that can come from it…

…If you were laid off, it’s a great opportunity to start your own business!

…If your living arrangements have been forced to change, it’s a great opportunity to make friends with new neighbors as well as a chance to reorganize to accomodate snaller dwellings.

…If you can no longer afford the entertainment you used to take part in, it’s a chance to try new things!

Remember that families in the 1800’s spent their time together reading and telling stories out loud, singing and making music within the family.

Go to your local library and see if they have any encyclopedias or other books from that time and share the same stories and activities with your family!

…No matter what the economy has brought into your life, you are still ALIVE! You stiill have a computer and it’s still connected to the internet or you wouldn’t be reading this message.

Be grateful for these and the other blessings you have and stop dwelling on what you don’t have!

In doing so, you’re likely to be even more creative in making ends meet!

And, since you’ll undoubtedly be happier, everything will “feel” less stressful! You’ll be able to cause a chemical reaction in your brain that will let you see the abundance of what you DO HAVE instead of the scarcity of what’s not there!

Think outside the box when it comes to making your d’ollars go further. This means both finding new ways to bring in more while at the sane time, finding unique ways of spending less.

For example, if you haven’t yet finished your shopping and your looking for a way to b’uy gifts for 5 or 6 people but you only have enough for 1 decent gift, take a look at:

Instead of b’uying gifts, you could make gifts! For each of the remaining people on your list, you would:

1. Open an account at www.Twitter.com with your gift recipient’s name as the ID

2. Add a short bio for the person and make it something that would bring tears to their eyes realizing that you think of them that way

3. Further personalize their new Profile by adding their picture and creating a custom background just for them!

4. Print a nice message on some colored paper and include the link and logins to their very special “gift”

All this will take you only a few minutes for eacch person on your list!

Don’t fret over #3 – adding a custom graphic background. You can grab a super easy-to-use template that doesn’t require any special skills or any special software at:

For about the price of a triple shot venti latte at Starbucks with some shortbread cookies on the side (mmmmm! My favorites!), you can create as many gifts as you want!

The best part is that the recipient isn’t likely to outgrow your gift.

Isn’t likely to have it fall apart in the wash.

And won’t find the balue decreasing as your gift ages. (In fact, the older your personal gift is, the more valuable its likely to be!)

You can pretty much count on no one else duplicating your gift too!

After the holidays are long over and you no longer need any of the special holday backgrounds we through in to serve you, you can still be benefiting from this package yourself in a BIG way!

Twitter users spend upwards of $75 to $150 or more for custom Twitter Backgrounds for their profiles.

You could really clean up offering your Background Creation Services at these prices!

Especially since each background takes only 5 to 10 minutes to creare (and even less time if you already know which graphics you’ll include).

There are SO MANY different ways that thi Background Template package can help you in 2010 and beyond! If I listed them all here you’d miss the entire holiday reading!

My point is, the next few days to a week are FAMILY DAYS! You should be enjoying your family and friends and not hanging our online or in stores!

To help you get back to your family quickly, I’m making this package available for only $7!

Heck, even the holiday graphics included make this a good choice to grab!

An even better reason is that once you download your copy you’ll immediately be able to refer others and get paid 100% commissions INSTANTLY!

Even if you don’t have an opt in list, you’re likly to make some sales just by sharing your affilate link with others on Twittter!

At a minimum, you should easily make your investment back with just a few Tweets to the right people!

The sooner you get started, the sooner you can get back to your holiday celebration!

Enjoy your holidays! I’m looking forward to serving you further in 2010 and beyond!

To Your Abundant Success,

P.S. In case you haven’t noticed, we FINALLY got our forum moved to Directions University! We’ve got a few bugs that we’re working hard to fix, but you can drop in and say HI right now at:

http//www.directionsu.com/forum

We should have the fixes in place by Monday. It does require a separate login than the rest of the DU site, but in the long run, you’ll have a forum that is MUCH MORE user friendly and functional. I’ll see you in the forum!
