Love and Relationship

Remember every relationship, no matter how short or long is an opportunity for growth, for finding out your highest self and acting out of your highest self. Hence do not let material items stand in your way. Remember this difference, because centering on behaviors instead of the core of the person can contribute to constant concern about your compatibility. Loving all things about your better half is just impossible.

Love is creating a better relationship by building a relationship that is based on the simple things in life, like walking and holding hands, going on a picnic (just the two of you), or sharing an ice cream. Love in a better relationship is not about what you show on the outside but what you express in you heart. Love is the action of doing.

Love a fireman love the fire department. Marry a fireman you marry the entire department. Love is the action of doing. Love remains love if it is real. "Rough waters" ultimately prove the point as to what is real, and what is not.

Billionaire's Formula

FV = PV * (1+r)^n

FV = future value of money
PV = present value of money
r = rate of return or interest rate
n = period or time

It's really as simple as this, not new but I guess a seldom used formula. Let's decipher this formula into a more realistic business point of view.

As an example I will illustrate Mr. Bill Gates, Microsoft Inc.

FV(Bill Gates) = PV (invented operating system) * (1 + r (microsoft sales)) to the power of n (number of years microsoft has been around)

If Bill Gates started with 1 cent as a present value of his operating system and sold 2 the first year, 4 on the 2nd year, 8 on the 3rd year, 16 on the 4th, and so forth for the next 30 years. His Future Value will be = $ 10,737,418.24. But he sold and still selling way more than that. That's why he's a billionaire. Money begets money and when it reaches a critical mass it'll be like a snowball rolling downhill turning into an avalanche.

$ 10,737,418.24 = .01 * (1 + 200%)^30


1: $.02
2: $.04
3: $.08
4: $.16
5: $.32
6: $.64
7: $1.28
8: $2.56
9: $5.12
10: $10.24
11: $20.48
12: $40.96
13: $81.92
14: $163.84
15: $327.68
16: $655.36
17: $1,310.72
18: $2,621.44
19: $5,242.88
20: $10,485.76
21: $20,971.52
22: $41,943.04
23: $83,386.08
24: $167,772.16
25: $335,544.32
26: $671,088.64
27: $1,342,177.28
28: $2,684,354.56
29: $5,368,709.12
30: $10,737,418.24

Simple? This computation is not new and I know it's easier said than done. However, save this formula, and if you find a money making business, work, or product, plug in your numbers in the formula and see for yourself that it actually work. Remember that you can also invest your money in stocks, real estate, etc. Leveraging your money to work for you is the key ingredient in this equation, and it doesn't matter whether you start small or large investment because you'll have the same constant formula in doubling your money.

As a bonus allow me to leave you this trivia question. Take a chess board and a grain of rice double that grain of rice on the 1st square, 4 grains on the 2nd, 8 grains on the 3rd and so forth until you fill in 64 squares. How much rice do you suppose you'll have?

Best of luck.

Easy Money Online

Let's start making some quick money. I suggest for you to try online selling communities like eBay or Amazon.com. Online selling communities have been a good source of income for retailers because they allow you to reach customers locally and internationally without having to spend on an actual shop, staffing, physical campaigns, and other expenses associated with offline business. A simple imagination and a good working knowledge of the ins and outs of the site you've chosen, can spell a profitable home based business capable of running by itself.

Keep in mind that online buyers look for bargains of hard to find items. So used items, gadgets, antiques, collectibles, and imported goods are very popular. It's a good idea to spend a few hours browsing the online selling sites to see which items move fast.

To get started, these sites require a simple registration process. By signing up you will learn the basics, and participating in selling and buying will give you the experience needed to enter into this kind of business.

The most important thing to learn first is to define clearly the item description you want to sell because this could make or break a sale. Your description should be brief but thorough, including information about payment, shipping, warranties. You could either participate in auctions where price is variable and the highest bidder wins, or a fixed price where the first buyer to contact you gets to buy the item.

Niche Marketing 101


Niche Cheese from spiritwarrior on Comiqs

The basic rule is that you need to find a niche which is not so competitive and one which you can contribute something special and relevant based on your past or other people’s experience, knowledge and skills. Everything else will just fall into place. Every day, the Internet world is becoming increasingly busy and competitive. This means that niches are becoming increasingly vital and critical to online success.

What is niche marketing? It is simply making people buy a product or service that have little competition in a particular area. As an example, putting up a grocery store in a residential area that does not have one will likely be successful in contrast to a place where there is a grocery store in every corner. This is true whether you have an offline or online business.

Bringing in customer and business together is essential to any marketing endeavour. Building a strong customer base will take time but will guarantee your online success because they will be your repeat buyers. If you sell a product or service online that customers do not need or can be easily purchased from other online businesses, your marketing effort is bound to fail. When you sell to a niche market remember to sell the benefits of your product or service and not so much the features. Do not overemphasize the features because customer buy based on need. For example, would you buy a vacuum cleaner based on horsepower and sturdiness, or because you need one to protect your baby from crawling on a dirty carpet? A good salesperson will emphasize the latter reason and the features later. That's what niche marketing is all about, creating a demand for your product and services to customers who will likely buy.

Lack of competition in a niche market can bring both positive and negative results. Positive because you are the only one or a few selling your product or service. Negative because there might not be a need for what you have to offer.

Internet business is very competitive because it can be accessed anywhere in the world and anyone can offer the same product or service. Therefore, a savvy niche marketer will target a small segment of a larger market base, create a demand and supply the need. So the secret of niche marketing is "creating a demand". Good luck.

Commercialize or Monetize Your Blog

As a blog owner, you may not be consciously doing it but may happen without you even noticing it. Below are certain aspects that might help you understand the difference.

Commercialization: When you commercialize a blog it is heavily dominated with advertisement, content promoting commercial products and a lot of embedded affiliate links redirecting visitors to products/services on various sites. Visitors find it difficult to distinguish between the actual content and commercial part of the blog. In a nutshell, a commercialized blog would want to use every possible opportunity to make money online by using various ways of doing so.

Monetization: When you monetize your blog, you do not overly involve yourself making money online by using various ways outlined above. You would rather focus on the content that your visitors like and keep coming back for more information. Monetization involves using AdSense and other contextual advertising programs to a limited extent to make money, and occasionally writing about some products with embedded affiliate links. In this case, visitors can very clearly distinguish between the actual content and commercial aspects of your blog.

Payoffs and drawbacks of a commercialize blog: You may make money, may be a lot of money in a short period but lose visitors in the long run. How will you make money when there are no visitors to your blog?

One can expect to grow with this approach and then make large amount of money over the long term. Focus on the content and money will automatically come to you.
