You are also the writer the director and the producer. Why not create wonderful roles for yourself?
Are you creating roles that are too small for you? Are you acting in someone else's movie?
In my early years I acted in roles that were assigned by and created for others. I forced myself into roles hoping the outcome would be great. I thought doing, being and acting the way others felt was "right," would help me fit in better. Not only did that not happen, I began to dislike my life! The truth is, I didn't always know what I wanted so it became easier to play the part.
Fast forward... today, using my intuition, gut instinct and an incredible connection with my Spirit guides, I follow the guidance that supports me in the most amazing role of my life.... living my life purpose! I create roles for myself that push me to grow, honor my soul's purpose and celebrate my spirit. This is the role that is the center of my joy, great friendships, love and peace.
What roles are you creating that aren't in alignment with your soul's purpose?
You will begin to recognize these roles because they won't feel right, you'll feel like you're on a treadmill going nowhere and you probably won't be having much fun either.
Here are three 10-minute tips to help you create better roles for yourself.
Meditation - I know you have heard it before, meditation has great benefits. But you must actually do it. Start off slow with just 10 minutes a day. Sit quietly and focus your attention on a happy time or event in your life. From this place, ask a question. "What should be my next business product?" or "What should I title my book?" Listen for the answer during the course of your day. Notice what shows up. You may read an email that may trigger the message or perhaps a billboard while driving down the street may have the answer. Ten minutes a day will make a big impact. Journal - I am sure you have heard about the benefits of journaling too. It is true; journaling can help you tap into your inner guidance. Taking 10 minutes a day to write your feelings, dreams, ideas and challenges in a journal will help you receive divine guidance for your most challenging decisions. Gratitude - Being grateful for what you have allows you to receive more of it. Take a moment each day to express gratitude for what you have, who you are and the people who inspire and love you. By spending just 10 minutes a day expressing gratitude you will notice a major shift. Your inner guidance will kick into high gear to help you receive more of what brings you joy and more of what you desire.
With just 30 minutes out of your day, you will begin to create dynamic soul fulfilling roles for yourself. Become the star of your own movie and earn the "Happy Soul Award," my equivalent of an Oscar!

Take your everyday, ordinary life - your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life - and place it before God as an offering. ~Romans 12:1 (Msg).
THE PROBLEM
This is probably so obvious there may be no point talking about the fact we don't enjoy things. But 'the why' of the matter is important, and either we've forgotten it or we've never thought about it.
Just why do many people loath good portions of their lives?
The solution - like the problem - may seem so obvious perhaps people have been duped into failing to enquire. Or, maybe people don't believe that everything could be enjoyed. This is not positive psychology we're talking about; instead, it's the fundamental issue of life.
We can only enjoy absolutely everything if we: 1) redefine what enjoyment means; and, 2) understand that true enjoyment begins, and has its fulfilment, in worshipping God.
UNDERSTANDING ENJOYMENT
Some periods and days are despicable, yet they can still be enjoyed. Like when we endure loss or humbling change or hurt or hormone imbalance; knowing that God's there - with us - changes things.
We enjoy the fact we're not alone through such voids of darkness. Indeed, we're encouraged more and more to converse with God, and the more we do that the more content God makes us in our inner beings.
Enjoyment, hence, is deeper in experience than plain happiness. It's felt intrinsic to the presence of God. In other words, mathematically, it's:
Presence of God + the emotion in any circumstance = enjoyment.
Again, enjoyment is not happiness. In fact, it's better than happiness, as happiness can be felt without God, but true bliss - which is available in almost any circumstance - is not possible that way. Enjoyment is the 'happy' acceptance of life as it is.
WHAT THE PRESENCE OF GOD DOES FOR OUR HOPE
As we continue practicing the presence of God, our enjoyment of life ripples outward from the present, healing our pasts and providing hope of the future.
We all need both - healing and hope.
But hope is more than a bright focus on the future - it's also buoyed by an identity reconciled by inner calm - yes, the past can now be accepted, let go of.
Having God present there with us empowers our courage and boldly we go out and come in. Hope indwells our enjoyment; things get better and better and all because we feel God there with us and we're doing things for our Lord.
THE EXERCISE OF ENJOYMENT
The best thing about enjoyment founded in God's presence, are the moments - especially the tough ones - are endured resiliently, because the moment is fortified by memory of God's faithfulness in our pasts and knowledge of that faithfulness for the future.
The exercise of enjoyment is, therefore, living all moments faithfully with strength on loan from God. Such a loan requires no deposit, there is no interest and no credit limit, and it requires absolutely no repayment. Actually, such a loan gives to us via more faith!
Enjoying absolutely everything is doing everything as if God were there, present with us - because he is.
Parents around the country are concerned with getting their children in the best private schools. There are many of these schools to choose from, but the admission requirements are not always easy. The competition to get into these schools is much more challenging than entrance into public schools.It is important to consider what is expected from parents in this process, as well as, what is expected from the children themselves. These schools in most cases have earned a reputation of providing a better education. There are benefits that reach far into the future for children. Let's take a

Occupy Wall Street Crowd is just pathetic at best and dangerous at worst. First they say that they are upset with the Millionaires, and they are on "a Millionaire March". They are passing by the homes of New York's wealthiest residents, because they are upset about the 2 percent "millionaires' tax" that is expiring. This is according to a story on Fox News website.
What I don't understand is that if they are so upset with Wall Street and all the rich people. Why are they being so selective in their picketing? Nancy Pelosi and the "Chosen One" Barack Hussein Obama just recently gave another $737 million dollars to Tonopah Solar Energy. The dirty little secret is the Nancy Pelosi's brother Ronald Pelosi is second in command at PCG Clean Energy & Amp; Technology Fund (East). You may ask what does that have to do with Tonopah. I'm glad you asked. Tonopah is a subsidiary of Solar Reserve which gets it's financial backing from PCG Clean Energy & Amp; Technology Fund (East). All this happen after the Solyndra fiasco.
Why don't Occupy Wall Street march against Nancy and her brother Ronald. Why don't they protest Timothy Geithner and Henry Paulson who said all the bailouts would help the economy? Also protest George Bush and Barack Obama for signing off on the taxpayer's money on these bailouts.
How about protesting George Soros who himself intentionally makes attempt to destroy Countries. Why not protest against Bill Gates and Larry Page who admitted to hiding millions of dollars over seas. No these bunch of hypocrites pick and choose what millionaires they will protest.
Michelle Malkin had an article entitled "Costs of the Occupiers" were she out lines the cost that these people are costing the taxpayer. She writes "In Philadelphia, Mayor Michael Nutter told the press that demonstrators outside city hall have incurred $164,000 in overtime public employee costs and $237,000 in regular time.
How is this type of action beneficial to their cause and how does this punish the Wall Street folks they are attempting to punish. Maybe they should rethink their strategy on making a point against the establishment.
In Boston and Seattle they are becoming rowdy which will be the next thing that kills all of their efforts to make a valid point. I just am some what perplexed at why they are not upset at the Obama Administration. Unemployment is at 9.2 percent. The only solution that Mr. Obama is offering is we should spend more money.
Mr. President has taken over company after company and the results are only more failure to the economy. My question is to the media whose job I thought was just simply to report the news. Why did the Common Sense Media cover the Tea Party with the same type of love and admiration?

The genesis of the European economic crises emerged out of the collapsed of the subprime mortgage crisis in the US financial market. Europe financial market was affected through the securitization of these mortgage debts, which was package and sold to the European banks by the financial institutions in the US. The connectivity of the global financial markets is so interwoven that a financial crisis in a large and important economy can easily spread to neighbouring countries. The first sign of problem in Europe surfaced in the euro zone peripheral economy of Ireland. It had to impose draconian
There are so many benefits to giving: personal satisfaction, mood improvement, and igniting the universal law of reciprocity - to name a few. The problem lies when you over-give.
Here are some symptoms of over-giving:
• You feel burdened, tired, resentful, or exhausted
• You secretly hope the other person will give something back to you
• You're starting to notice that you feel irritated around people whom you consistently give to, but whom you don't feel give back to you (or who don't give enough back to you)
• You give out of obligation or a sense of duty (including feeling obligated to reciprocate)
As women, most of us have learned how to be giving. The question is, do you know how to give in a way that does not leave you feeling depleted and resentful? Chances are if you tend to give without bringing awareness to how it feels for you to give in that moment, you may over-give.
When you over-give, you have given beyond your capacity in the moment. As humans, our capacity to give and be generous fluctuates regularly. Don't judge yourself if you simply "don't have it in you" to give at any particular moment in time. Instead, when you notice any reluctance or resentment to giving to another show up, use it as an invitation to explore what you need. Know that you can only give what you have.
Here are a few tips to help you give without over-giving and cultivating resentment:
1. Pay attention to your needs. Notice how you are feeling before and after you give. Ideally, you should feel good (or at least neutral) when you give; otherwise, you're going into "over-give." If you experience any of the symptoms of over-giving, then it's time to re-calibrate. Renegotiate or postpone any commitments you have made to give until you have completed the next step.
2. Give to yourself. Usually you experience symptoms of over-giving when you don't feel cared for. Take a few minutes to figure out what YOU would like to receive. Perhaps it's a hug, a break from household chores, or an unexpected token of appreciation. Once you determine what you would like to receive then figure out how you can give it to yourself. By doing so, you are filling your own tank, which then becomes the fuel to appropriately help another.
3. Give to others without any expectations. This can be really challenging, but it's important. If you are giving to another with the secret hope of receiving something in return, you are being manipulative. And, you are setting yourself up for disappointment. Instead, practice giving without expectation of receiving anything in return. Focus on your own joy in giving and helping another. Be patient with yourself this takes time to cultivate.
Continue to give and be of service to others. But, don't forget to be of service to yourself in the process. When you give, give from a place of conscious awareness. In this way, you are honoring everyone involved and you are giving from a place of true love and generosity.

Greeting's everyone. It's another nice day to learn something new. How is everyone out there today? I am feeling outrageously phenomenal! Ha, you thought I was going to say nice, didn't you? I feel even higher than that. And you should too. Why am I so excited you may be thinking? No explicit reason. Simply just because, for the most part. Anyway, as the title asked... Are you the success you ought to be? Let's think about this for a moment. Really, are you? Are you the success you ought to be? Some of you will jump and say, "no, I'm not," promptly. However you just may be. Continue reading on before you answer so quickly. You will understand where I am going with this.
Before you answer that question, let's take a glance at the word "success." What does it really mean in terms of how the dictionary defines it? Success comes from the Latin word successus, which suggests outcome. The dictionary defines success as a noun:
1. The favorable or prosperous termination of attempt or endeavors. 2. The attainment of wealth, position, honors, or the like. 3. A successful performance or achievement.
So currently we all know the definition of success, as what we see on TV. And that would be a correct form of success in terms of the dictionary. It's not the only form though. You see number 2? Further reading of the dictionary definition of it, it sounds more to me that success is subjective. Therefore success is how YOU outline it. First we all know it's a noun. We know that a noun may be a person, place, or thing. The noun here is SUCCESS. So who defines it? Haven't you been listening? It's YOU. No matter what "thing" you would like it to be. You define what success looks like. Duh!
Once again the definition says, "The favorable or prosperous termination of attempts or endeavors or the attainment of wealth, position, honors, or the like." In alternative words it means no matter what you have set off to attain. If you achieved it, you're a success. What is that thing you desire? Are you doing what you planned to do? Is it a better relationship with your loved one or parents? Serving to others, writing a book, or maybe doing volunteer community work? What about some employment you wanted to get? You get the point.
In today's world the media has portrayed pictures of what success is (lots of cash, massive homes and fancy overpriced cars), but per the definition it's not simply just that (unless that is how you determined success for you). Just do not be fooled by what you see on TV to be all success is about. I am just opening your eyes in this article to take a deeper look at what you really want and go after it. Success doesn't mean an enormous house or a luxury automotive, or a bunch of cash unless that's what you outlined success to be for you.
I'm solely observing that you simply don't have to be compelled to have those things so as to achieve success. Do what feels right for you. It is the reason why you have to make a plan for your life or someone else will. To me, the true Dream is achieving ones passion for life, to measure abundantly and freely within the time within which we are blessed to possess. Therefore I raise the question again. Are you the true success you ought to be? I believe several hands are rising up right now saying YES. If you are still saying NO, my question is why do you feel that? And what are you doing to change it?
If you are not a success, create a plan, take action, and become a success, as YOU outline it, not the planet. Anything your mind can conceive you can achieve. Notice I didn't say it'd be simple. It won't. You may and will fail repeatedly before you learn what to do to succeed. You will have some bumps within the road, however you will get there if you do not stop and quit. Simply trust yourself. I believe in you and therefore you ought to too! You may be thinking you don't know me so how can you believe me in. It's a very simple answer...the human mind. I believe that in every person lies the potential, the passion to be anything and do anything they want to do. That is how I know you can be a success. You can do it right now and you will do it once you set your mind to making it happen. You just got caught up in the process of making a living instead of designing your life!
If you follow my blog you know I end most of my articles with Best of Success. You can go to my blog at The Entrepreneur Blog. I have many articles as well as from the community that will help you through your journey. Best of success is what I want for each and every one of you, the best that success has to offer. You deserve it. There is so much abundance for everyone to enjoy. The world is not scarce. Too many people live in fear of running out. Change that mindset and your habit will change. When your habit changes so will your actions. Once your actions change, the results you get will change and you will walk with a different walk and talk with a different tongue. The minute you understand this, a different world will open up to you. The best of success that you desire and simply deserve will be a reality for you and your family.

If you are keen on finding happiness then it is important to discover how to be happy within yourself. The happy people that we meet are usually happy in themselves, which is why they appear so attractive and likable to others. If you want to appear relaxed, confident, interesting and attractive to others then you need to be happy in yourself too. Below are a couple of techniques to help you achieve this.
Don't Dwell On The Past - Look To The Future: If you have done something in the past that you are not particularly proud of then you may wish you could go back and change it. Well unfortunately life does not come with a rewind button. The best thing to do is let go of the past. Don't feel hard done by, just move on and accept what has happened. Focus on the future and making it a good one. The first step to finding happiness within yourself is to realize that you cannot change the past.
Don't Criticize Others: Many unhappy people tend to look for faults and failures in those around them. This is usually a way to cover up their personal insecurities. Many of us are quick to criticize others about things that we actually do ourselves. The key to finding happiness is to stop judging others. Instead you should concentrate on your own life, and living it in the best possible way. In doing so, you will feel so much better and happier about yourself.
Do Something Positive For Others: By doing something positive for someone else you can take the focus off yourself. This could be volunteering at a retirement home, dog shelter or even helping at a homeless shelter. Regardless of what you do, it will prevent you from dwelling about yourself. When you do consider yourself you will feel much happier at the type of person you have become. You will feel proud and therefore happier.
Be Aware Of Your Strengths: We all have something that we are good at. This could be baking, music, art or gardening. It is therefore important to identify what we are good at, and incorporate it into our routines. You should try to do something you are good at once a week. This will make you feel good and also proud at your accomplishment. Acknowledgement of our achievements is a great step to finding happiness.
There are many ways in which you can achieve happiness in your life. I really recommend trying the techniques listed above and see how you feel after them. You will soon realise that finding happiness isn't as hard as it seems.

"Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all." Dale Carnegie
When there seems to be no hope at all is when you know if you truly have determination. The world, your loved ones and close friends, maybe even the dog may think you should just give it up. Everything stands still. All of the doors seem to be closed and the last bus has just left, what do you do? What is your state of mind? If after all of this, in your heart of hearts, in the molecules of your being you can still see the attainment of your goal, you have a rare and determined soul my friend and destined for greatness. (smile)
There is nothing more powerful than a made up mind my friend. This is the very essence of what we mean by determination. The way to truly increase your odds of success in whatever your pursuit is to simply yet emphatically, make up your mind! A strong determination is like a declaration. I will inspire people to overcome and achieve their goals with universal truths and personal success stories! This is my declaration. Hopefully after reading this you will prove my declaration to be true.
Make up your mind to accomplish or attain what you want and let it sink into your pores and blood stream. Do not doubt or vacillate when things get shaky. Make the proper plan of action for whatever you are pursuing and don't be afraid to change plans or adjust to new conditions but always keep your original goals firmly in place. Eat drink sleep and breathe your goals.
In one of my favorite movies "Rocky 4", Rocky Balboa played by Sylvester Stallone was going into a fight for his life. Being a huge boxing fan and student, I never took the boxing scenes in the "Rocky" series seriously, but it is the heart of the of the movie that touches the masses of the people. The determination of the underdog to fight his obstacles and succeed. His wife whom he is devoted to and loves unconditionally famously told him, "Rocky you can't win." Rocky continued to work out building his physical and mental strength and against all odds defeated his almost superhuman challenger. His mind was made up. What are you waiting for?

What is Cave Diving?To the uninitiated, the mention of the term cave diving may conjure up images of someone standing on a diving board and diving down into a cave below. In reality this is not what cave diving means. It is actually an amalgamation of two popular forms of recreation, namely caving and diving.Caving is the exploration of cave systems as a pastime and in some circles is referred to as spelunking. This is in contrast to speleology, which is basically the same thing except it is done for scientific purposes. Diving involves underwater navigation by persons while utilizing scuba
Information, Confidence, Guts?All of the above.In the Temporary Help Staffing business it starts with information and lots of it about what makes up our rate. That includes the temps Salary, F.I.C.A., F.U.T.A, S.U.T.A, Workers Compensation, plus the Real Office Expense necessary to fill the order properly.You know the old cliche, "knowledge is power," if you know what your real costs are to do the job properly, then you are better equipped to present that information and defend it. Many have told me that on occasion prospects have actually said, "no one has ever told me that before." I guess

How does visibility relate to networking? Visibility, of course, is your presence or profile -- it's the recognition you establish by being in the room.What if you're not in the room? Do people notice? Why is this important? Quite often, if someone is absent, I wonder where that person is. Is he or she ill, unhappy with the group, or no longer in business? That absence is something I notice and if I notice, it simply means that person is someone important to me. Isn't the awareness of one's absence also a measure of their visibility? It most certainly is.If I don't see someone for several
Timeshares can be a life changing decision. What many don't realize is that once they purchase that timeshare, whether it is through a presentation or a telephone call, it becomes a life time commitment. In this day and age there is no way for a consumer to cancel a timeshare contract simply because he no longer wants it. The only choice he has is to sell it, transfer it, or donate it.Let's go over the basics first. What exactly is a timeshare? A timeshare is a kind of ownership someone has of a property. Many times a timeshare ends up being a condominium unit. These units are usually used by
iPhone 5 or 4s has been launched with the clear intention of pitching it against the exemplary and high capability android devices. iPhone 5 is not as much loaded on the outside as it is on the inside with the upgraded iOS 5.0. iOS 5 app development has opened up new avenues of innovation and invention for the mobile application development world in general and for the iPhone application developer in particular. With more than 200 new features, iOS 5 is a real game-changer not just for the users but also for the developers.
iOS 5.0 is loaded with 1500 new APIs which facilitate iOS 5 app development and provide a never-before seen ease to the iPhone application developer to implement their idea. Apple's new framework makes iOS 5 app development quicker and faster and assists in event handling, on-screen content display and interaction with the rest of the system. Some of the features that step up the business of mobile application development are:
iCloud- With its combination of free services that include iTunes, photo stream and documents in the cloud, iCloud is the most attention grabbing feature of the new iOS and affects the app development tremendously. Through this, apps can easily utilize cloud-based storage data and documents and updates are automatically and wirelessly pushed on other iOS devices. This is a boon for apps that have iPhone and iPad versions. Work with one app can be started on one device and carried on the other one from exactly the same point. With content sharing now a breeze, viral marketing can be done via apps, sharing of documents online can also be facilitated through them.
Automatic Reference Counting (ARC)- This allows apps to run faster and have a smooth performance. ARC makes development process simple and smooth as memory management is done by the compiler. This eliminates the need to type retain or release again as memory is managed at the compile time. No overhead to apps are added, lesser bugs are found as well as crashes and memory leaks decrease significantly. This improves apps performance and is a big help for the developers as they have to code less.
AirPlay- This feature debuted in iOS 4.2 where it allowed streaming of videos, photos and audio to Apple TV. The new iOS 5 version allows mirroring of content from iPad 2 to HD TV through Apple TV. This opens the possibilities of developing apps offering functionalities over AirPlay. iOS 5.0 simplifies streaming of videos and/or audios, thus acting as a boon for any media app. Moreover, with extra APIs apps can display different content on the HD TV and iPad 2 screen. This brings in a variety of opportunities along with the advantages of distributing content via multiple channels.
Siri- This voice recognition tool is a great avenue for the iPhone application developer to innovate and create path-breaking apps for the end-user. As companies across the globe make a switch to iOS devices, this feature is a huge door of opportunity for application development.
What makes the new iOS tick with the developer community is its simplicity and reduction of code.
I am on the train today going to New Jersey so I decided to write an article while traveling. I started to ponder on a topic to write about when all of sudden the train started slowing down for its next stop and I heard the conductor say: "Next Stop Delaware." Then it hit me, what if your next stop was your purpose/passion? The door opens, you step off, and there it is the life of your dreams. Wow!
Look around, what would your world look like? Well, this could very well happen to you if you start unleashing the passion for purpose within you. You do not live in this world just to have the testimony that you're here, but we live here to discover, develop, and to determine what we are most passionate about. Once we go through our process of discovering, we must start living on purpose. We are all purposed to be great in some area of our lives. I want to take the time to answer some questions that people most frequently ask me:
Question: What is Purpose/Passion?
Answer: Have you ever said, "I know what I'm supposed to do, but just can't seem to put my finger on it." Well, I think we all have said this at one time or another. Our purpose has to be defined; which means: to state the precise meaning of, or to describe the nature or basic quality of. In other words, what moves you! When I speak of your purpose I'm not talking about something that you have an interest in, but this is something you live for.
Question: How do I discover my Purpose/Passion?
Answer: You have been graced with such awesome gifts and talents that are already planted within. If someone told you that there was a pot of gold within you and all you have to do was search for it, what would you do? Well, yes you would search for it. You hold the key to your success. Your gold mine is nuggets that you have been operating in all along. You have been blessed with capabilities to travel back into the archives of time to search out your treasures. Some of your gifts are laying right on the surface just waiting to be gathered for your use. As I said before, you have been operating in these gifts all along. What are you passionate about? In other words, you would do this even if you were not paid for it. You wake up in the morning eager to do this. Do not rule anything out. What might seem silly to you could be the very thing that will shape your life into what was intended from the beginning
Question:How do I develop my Purpose/Passion?
Answer: Once you determine what it is that you are gifted to do, set some goals and start making something happen in regards to your purpose. Maybe spend some time researching and studying it, or even start something part-time. Remember it's nothing new! Now it's time to get paid for it. Begin to develop great habits on purpose...practice purpose!
Question: How do I get started?
Answer: Take Action: Find out what's going on around town that is related to what you love to do. You can also search the internet for a seminar or conference that relates to your passion/purpose.

One of the most significant elected positions on the county level in the State of Ohio is that of county commissioner. Details of how boards of commissioners operate, are paid, and their duties are outlined and enacted by the Ohio legislature, which is located in the state capital of Columbus.
Ohio has 88 counties in total, and in the vast majority of those counties, the head administrative body is an elected board of three county commissioners. In many cases, these elected officials are elected to four-year terms, although they are usually not all elected during the same year. A common "staggering" of their terms requires two of the board members to be elected during presidential election years, while the one remaining office holder is chosen by voters during off-year (non-presidential) years.
A board of county commissioners is more than just a legislative body; it acts as the chief administrative body for the entire county government. In Ohio, your commissioners are responsible for putting together and approving a yearly county budget; setting hiring and staff policies for departments; all of the purchase orders; and even appropriating taxpayer funds to the right department heads.
Additionally, in most counties, the actual property titles that are owned by county government are held in name by this elected board of three representatives. An effective county commissioner in Ohio usually is able to understand a broad scope of topics including law enforcement (county sheriff departments) and business development (since they are responsible for additional sources of government revenue, as well).
Taxing authority and budgeting decisions are not the only area of concern for your county commissioners. They are also called upon (in many of the 88 counties) to oversee additional functions of the government that include but aren't limited to annexation, waste disposal and recycling, public water and sewer issues, and the broadcasting of their own public meetings and hearings for the general public.
Because of the significant duties that this group of three elected office holders has in county administration, it's important that the voting populace learns as much as they can about the candidates before choosing the most qualified representative. The State of Ohio grants commissioners a substantial amount of authority in the decision making process behind spending of taxpayer funds, disbursement of funds to different departments, and safety of local families.
If you are interested in learning more about how your local commissioners board operates, it's best to attend one of their regularly-scheduled public meetings (which are required by law). Citizens are allowed and encouraged to interact directly with their elected officials and make their voice heard during public hearings and meetings.
Please find out more about the board of Lorain County Commissioners to get a better background on the duties of these elected officials. One of the members of this board is Commissioner Ted Kalo.

When a child fails - or when they get poor standardized test results, parents become outraged and blame the teachers for the child's poor academic performance. But is it totally the teacher's fault?No! Not at all!Yes, there are some teachers that should not be teaching anymore but in most cases, the teacher is not the only blame for your child's poor academic performance. So who and what can we blame for our broken educational system?Through my experience and research, I uncovered four major issues.1. Most teachers are not trained for today's classroom.2.

Private school admissions have a lot to do with first impressions and doing it right the first time around. The school wants to impress you and of course YOU want to impress the school.

In real estate you make money when you buy the property and not when you sell. That's why it is extremely important to be able to determine true value and submit an offer for the right price. Depending on the lending criteria normally you would want to offer somewhere around 55-65% of the current value of the property. If you use 60% as your magic number on a property valued at $100,000 that needs $20,000 in rehab your offer will be $40,000. Asking price plus work needed amount to $40,000+$20,000=$60,000 which is 60% of the retail value. In order to sell a property in distressed market you
The Department of State is reviewing the details of a Presidential permit which will be required to build the Keystone XL pipeline from Canada, through the U.S., to the Gulf of Mexico. The President is currently burdened with the task of of approving or disapproving the Keystone XL project by deciding if the pipeline is "in the national interest." Environmentalists are calling for its disapproval, of course. The President, in my humble opinion, will ultimately decide in favor of going forward with the 13 billion-dollar pipeline. Let us be clear that under the law this decision is not in the hands of Congress but rests solely on the shoulders of the President.
Why do I think President Obama, who is awesome, will approve of a project that goes against any pledges toward a greener economy? For this article, I'll cite two reasons: 1. It's the system; 2. It's in the national interest.
The "system" I speak of is the carbon economy. The carbon economy is a product and a continuing necessity of the modern Western/American Empire. Capitalism, the corporate-western carbon-dominated model based on the fiat money system, is an extremely brilliant trick that compels us to participate "in the system." To gain any measure of material existence we are prodded to keep going to work to provide food, clothing, shelter, water, and energy for our families. Capitalism, the kind which is succeeding because of the fallible and greedy nature of the two-legged, abstracts its subjects from daily meaningful interaction with the universe; this is accomplished without most even knowing it. We are separated from our labor, which was meaningful and even spiritual in the buffalo economy, for instance.
The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist. Capitalism separates our spirit from our environment and human beings require interaction with the land, with our surroundings, our relatives. We are no longer doing our part in the universe by growing our own food, hunting, clothing and sheltering ourselves, observing our animal and celestial relatives (the stars) to seek guidance for earthly conduct. We no longer directly nurture our soul and needs by our own deeds. With this separation, we are easily taught that happiness equals the pursuit of material consumer culture: better cars, better gold, better diamonds, better houses, better, more expensive everything. We dig ditches or strike keyboards, from climate controlled structures run by carbon based energy, to earn imaginary money to trade for things at Walmart.
What does all that mean to Obama? It means the controllers of big oil and every related industry, the owl-worshipping, goat sacrificing Illuminati, and Joe Sixpack all want the same thing: to keep coasting on this destructive, unnatural path so long as our Western standard of living is maintained. And that, my friends, absolutely requires more oil, more products, more shipping, more sweatshops, more autos that still aren't running on renewables, more houses, more buildings, more jobs, more schools, more prisons, more carbon energy, more everything.
Is this in the national interest? What is the national interest? The national interest is, quite simply, to protect our empire; that's what is done. It does not matter that we call it protecting freedom, spreading democracy or any other euphemistic word or phrase. So, how, I ask, can any President of the U.S. choose anything other than more oil when the illuminati and the average American want an "improved economy?" So, I don't blame Obama as I wouldn't blame any other president for doing what a majority of America wants.
What can we do? We can use less, recycle more, buy local, grow our own food, live simpler, throw the TV away and do many other smart things. This is all easier said than done; I am not the role model here. I am complicit in this process; I am not guilt free. Our seemingly involuntary participation in the system is our own destruction. The world carbon economy is a machine. The machine is our enemy; we are the machine. The machine does not eat unless we feed it, and we feed it every day. It lives because of us; we need to stop feeding it. If we don't stop feeding the machine, Mother Earth will remind us not to feed it. Maybe Obama will send a message that he, on behalf of America, does not want to continue to feed the machine.
The handheld PC can be a mobile phone, an organizer or calculator. It is much smaller than a standard laptop and uses its own apps, unlike the laptop that uses the same apps as the desktop computer.
In the latter part of the 80's early 90's, those handheld devices were referred to as Palmtop and they were compatible with the IBM personal computers. This device was called the Atari Portfolio, built in 1989. Other PC manufacturers came up with their own handheld personal computer devices, such as Hewlett Packard who came out with its HP 95LX, built in 1991 and Poqet Computer Corporation came out with its Poqet PC, which was a mini notebook. All these handheld personal computers were compatible to MS-DOS operating system.
The early 90's handheld computers, apart from the pocket calculator, were shunned by the market, except for me, who always wanted a PDA or a PalmPilot. But seriously though, those devices were cool, excepted that they had limited functionality, due to the lack of apps on them. They were good organizer. But lack compatibility with the desktop personal computer.
The only handheld device at that time that gained some amount of traction in the market was the Apple Newton. This was a tablet PC that was developed by the Apple Inc. in 1993 but suffered the same fate as the others, due to hardware problems. If Steve Jobs were there, he would have sorted out those issues. However, he returned to Apple three years later, in 1996, when they purchased neXT from him.
Steve Jobs returned to Silicon Valley was to mark a new resurgence in the way the world looked at handheld devices. But first, He had to resuscitate the flagging Apple brand. And by extension, Apple's Inc. from the brink of collapsed to one of the most successful and cash rich companies in Silicon Valley.
Steve Jobs first creation, when he returned to Apple Inc., was the iPod, which was a portable media layer that came out in 2001. Back then, the first iPod could not be classified as a handheld computer but iPod line, such as the iTouch could be classified as a handheld computer. This was due to its multiple functionality and compatibility with other computer devices.
Smartphone
The smart phone is a mobile phone with an advance technological capabilities and connectivity than an ordinary mobile phone. These phones come with PDA and media player capabilities, along with built in camera, touch screen, web browsing functionality and GPS navigation and mobile broadband access.
Apple Inc. was able to corner the market with its iPhone that was launched in 2007 by Steve Jobs. It is popular phone in the market, due to its extra feature, such as video camera, visual voicemail, virtual keyboard and both 3G and Wi-Fi connectivity. Many other smart phones on the market are doing well, such as blackberry, with a little setback in its functionality, have done well in the past and no doubt will continue to do well the future. Google's Android, Samsung Galaxy and Sony Ericsson are holding their own in the smart phone market.
Tablet Personal computer
The evolution of the tablet PC came into existence with Microsoft Tablet PC; in fact the term tablet PC was coined by Bill Gates led Microsoft Corp. in early 2000. The tablet is between a smart phone and a laptop computer and it can be akin to the slate, which is a complete mobile PC. The present day tablets are more high tech with touch screen and virtual keyboard features along with myriad of other functionality.
Steve Job scored big in the tablet market, when Apple inc. launched the iPad tablet in 2010. The tablet is able to function as an audio-visual media and has multitouch screen capabilities that run on the iOS operating system. Since then, a plethora of tablets have entered the market in an attempt to steal the spot light but to no avail, Apple's handheld devices still dominate market share.
Finally, handheld computer now has more features than a desktop computer. The desktop computer is virtually obsolete except in the corporate world, where the desktop is still needed for its capabilities in performing large volume of work.

Jungle animals. They are cute, dangerous and majestic. Each one of them has been created to survive the harsh jungle conditions and to be unique in its own ways. Some jungle animals are exceptionally fast, others impress with their strength.
If you are about to host a party or if you are just curious, you are probably wondering about the most popular jungle animals. This article will provide you with some information about the most loved inhabitants of the jungle and with some curious facts about each animal.
Monkeys Monkeys are adorable. These cute primates resemble human form and behavior, which makes them rather lovable.
A number of monkey species inhabits the jungles of the world. Some primates and monkeys are small and dexterous, while others are impressive in size - the gorilla, for example. Other types of primates that inhabit jungles include spider monkeys, capuchin monkeys, chimpanzees, baboons, orangutans, gibbons and many others.
You will discover many intriguing facts about monkeys and primates. It is a well-known fact that they use facial expressions and sounds to communicate with each other. They are also capable of expressing love. One animal that loves another will usually groom the object of affection, in order to demonstrate the strong sentiments.
Lions Lions are often named the kings of the jungle. They are impressive, beautiful and strong.
The mane of male lions is probably one of the most specific characteristics of this species. Lions inhabit Africa and India, unfortunately decreasing in number.
One intriguing fact about lions is that the females do most of the hunting - nearly 95 percent of it all. Males are responsible for keeping the pride safe and united.
Elephants The elephant is the largest mammal on Earth, which manages to maintain its 'cute' and intelligent appearance. Two types of elephants inhabit the planet today - the African and the Asian elephant.
Elephants can live for up to 75 years. It is interesting to know that adult elephants have no natural enemies. Humans are the only beings that hunt and kill these animals and the consequences of such actions turn out to be disastrous.
Crocodiles The Australian freshwater crocodile inhabits rainforests and is one of the most dangerous predators in nature.
Crocodiles rank among the oldest inhabitants of planet earth - they appeared nearly 240 million years ago. Their impressive size and killing abilities turn them into absolute survivors. A crocodile can live as many as 80 years.
Giraffe The giraffe's cute eyes and long neck make it instantly adorable. Giraffes are natives to Africa and are the tallest animals.
Giraffes have very long tongues that help them get food. These tongues are also useful in hygienic terms - a giraffe can use its tongue to clean its own ears! Giraffes tend to live longer in zoos - up to 25 years. In nature, a giraffe can live for 15 years at most.
Although we don't get to see them often in real life, jungle animals are still popular symbols and themes for both kids and adults. The images of popular jungle animals are used in movies, party decorations and plush toys. These animals can even be the focus of a party, baby shower or even bridal shower theme.

In the early years, the existence of gas stations was attributed to its function, which is, dispensing fuel to the vehicles. But now, the face of Gas Stations has changed immensely. They have bow become a retail - marketing sales tool. Supermarkets, couponing, scanning, video displays and eating joints have now become a common function of every gas station that you will visit. From strictly functional they have evolved to be multipurpose.
Fuel Dispensers
Advanced Fuel Dispensing Systems are now in place. These dispensers display functions like bar coding, interactive videos screen, scanner, customer identification Keypad and Magnetic card terminal. With Magnetic card terminal installed on the dispenser, the staffs no longer have to keep credit/debit card machines with them. Through Interactive video screen, the customers can entertain themselves while waiting for the fuel to get pumped in their vehicles. Customer Identification Keypad enables a customer to check his transactions. Each customer is given a unique identification number.
The pumps also have a DEF Dispensing system. Diesel Exhaust Fluid is added to the diesel exhaust to convert smog providing nitrogen oxide into harmless nitrogen and water vapour.
Gas stations do not depend only on Gasoline sales for their revenue. Well, they have now come up with supermarkets, coffee houses, and kid-play area to increase their revenue. Gas stations also lower the gasoline price in order to attract customers. With more customers coming, their retail business would also go up.
Latest technology
A new innovation has come up whereby customers at the petrol pumps can pay with their fingertips. The reason for this innovation is a known fact that the customers using cards do not like to wait to make their payment. They want a quicker and a more secure way. The latest innovation enables the customer to scan his fingerprint at a kiosk inside the store and link his payment information at the store or online.
Another innovation is that of a robotic gas station where the whole process of dispensing fuel into the vehicle is done by a robot. The customer enters the amount of gas needed on a keypad and with the help of a transmitter on the dash board of the car; the robotic pump can read the car's make and model. A robotic arm then finds the gas tank and opens it with suction. Then the robot inserts a nozzle through a flap in the tank cap and dispenses fuel.
Now you don't have to line up your car and wait for your turn to get fuel. You can park your car anywhere inside the station and wait for the pump to come to your car.
Gas stations show a clear picture of today's world. With innovations like advanced Fuel Dispensing system, Robotic gas station and a total change in the surroundings of petrol pump has increased the efficiency and business of the gas stations. Their revenue has increased manifold. The gas stations now serve a number of purposes apart from dispensing fuel.

What is your relationship with Money? Do you feel guilty for having expectations that there is a transfer of money, to you for products or services that you supply? Too many people feel guilty when they charge for their services. They feel that money is not aligned with their spiritual purpose and that expecting a fair price for services rendered is not a true reflection of their true value. There is never a reason to feel guilty for charging a fair price for all services rendered, when everything is in balance and there is a fair exchange of value between parties.
It is time for you to upgrade your relationship with money and to start seeing money as only a measure of value. Both money and value have the same number of letters, it is time to shift the way you view money and to begin seeing the exchange of money as merely a fair exchange for the value you have offered. As you make the choice to step into a more empowered relationship with money and you look on all transactions as only a fair exchange of value, you will stop seeing yourself as, someone who trades hours for money and you will start to identify the true value you have to offer. As you train your mind to make the shift and you stop viewing yourself as someone that merely trades dollars for money, you begin to see the real value that you have to offer and charging a realistic price for the value you add becomes comfortable.
As you break free from your unconscious habit of exchanging time for money, you will immediately stop feeling resentful about money. As you view money as merely a means of representing value and your contribution as a means of adding value to people, you change your relationship with money and more money or value will flow to you.
As you see your true value and you begin to attract more money (value) to yourself. You are able to establish a strong foundation of financial security that will give you the opportunity to have more freedom and choice. A strong financial foundation allows you to become far more focused and frees you up to concentrate your efforts on things that really matter to you. Recognise your true value today and start to build a fortress of financial security around yourself. The benefits of living a life free from financial worry stretches far beyond mere freedom of choice. As your financial cushion grows, you begin to live a life free from unnecessary stress, your health improves and you have far more energy.
As your financial foundation grows and solidifies into financial independence, you free your mind up and you are able to stroke your creative juices. As you align yourself with abundance and prosperity, you build mutually beneficial bridges and connection with people that can support you and whom you can support in return. This helps you to keep growing and expanding, constantly becoming more and allowing you to turn your success into significance. Significance is a place where you are able to help others to grow and achieve the outcomes they desire. I believe that we are striving for significance and as this can only really be achieved by helping others, we must move our focus away from merely becoming successful and strive to help as many people as is humanly possible get what they want.
Commit to keep spreading your gifts and allow value to flow freely around you, as you engage in fair exchange, with everyone that you touch. See money or value as a flow of energy and see it circulating from people through you and then back out into the universe once again. As you grow and expand, you are better able to participate in this flow of energy and value. Commit to support important causes and give freely to inspiration, care for those less fortunate than you and leave a legacy of real love and grace.

The first step to resolve a problem: identify the cause. In the overtly caustic environment of American politics, where image trumps substance and catchy sound-bites carry more weight than plain truths, politicians, pundits and the people are eager and willing to fix blame but not even remotely interested in fixing the problem.
Thoughtful people, ones who might know others who are out of work, struggling financially, or perhaps facing foreclosure characterize the economy as in a state of malaise - recession is a word bandied about. Those who are actually unemployed, in foreclosure or declaring bankruptcy use more emotionally charged words, words like: crisis, disaster, depression. We know something isn't quite right, but despite the audacious rhetoric to the contrary, few understand the root cause of the global conflagration: concentration of power.
The misuse of power has hastened the demise of every great empire the world has ever known and for good reason. Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Nowhere is this adage more evident than in the American political economy. Power concentrated in the hands of the few destroys the aspirations and moral fabric of the many. Without hope and opportunity a society dies.
The issue however, is not that the titans of greed - the masters of Wall Street, the financial elite, and their political puppets - are wreaking havoc. The storm troopers are not yet breaking down doors and confiscating wealth and power. We, the people, cede it freely. In our misguided search for comfort and conformity we give away our power. We are abandoning responsibility and in so doing are relinquishing power.
The consequences of this course are truly dire. One by one, and collectively through our American democracy, we are committing suicide. Confused and frail we are concentrating wealth and power at an unprecedented rate.
For two centuries the American mystique was one of opportunity - the chance to make something of one's life by dreaming great dreams and acting boldly to make them come true. The free market sorted the wheat from the chaff. People knew, at least in America, they had a chance. The egalitarian ethic enshrined in our founding document, the Declaration of Independence, guaranteed a shot. People flocked to the United States from every corner of the globe to try. An individual could aspire to achieve anything here. America was once synonymous with opportunity. Now, not so much.
The prevailing sentiment in America today is to secure trinkets and demand comfort. Government and industry provide. The people's role is to consume. We accept bread for sustenance and entertainment for substance instead of a life of inspiration, challenge and creativity. We are lost. The spoils go to the privileged few - an offering, an expense, a dowry of sorts from the distracted and disillusioned masses.
Avarice, arrogance, complacency and fear are the four horsemen of this apocalypse. Desires are infinite yet advancing presents peril and requires effort. For many, rather than risk loss, settling seems attractive. This tendency offers an opportunity for those with drive. The arrogant come to understand and embrace fear as the ultimate weapon to manipulate compliance. Those granted power dispatch misguided solutions to relive conditions we impose upon ourselves.
Each individual, each of us, is the master of our own destiny. We create the reality we experience. The only way we control the power, however, is to take full responsibility for it. If we seek to right our course, we must embrace this truth individually and collectively.
The greatness of America was an intrinsic recognition of the power and promise of the individual. Every man and woman ultimately crafted and created his or her own dream, realized his or her own potential, forged his or her own life. We hide from this truth today. Rather than face an obstacle we reject responsibility and look outside ourselves for relief. We look to others, to industry, and to government to save us from discomfort - each time becoming less responsible and growing more feeble.
To resolve the economic crisis we must address the cause: concentrated power. We, the people, must accept responsibility for the conditions we brought about and in so doing reclaim our power. Only then can we create a new reality.
Wow. Strange times. My experiences travelling have been a really great eye opener.
Wake up everyone, there is only now, I have met and spoken to lots of people from all walks of life, from people working on a wage, right up to some very wealthy people who have global interests and would have hundreds of millions in assets.
I know it is a well worn chestnut, but money has nothing to do with happiness, a man with 20 million, is no happier than someone with 19 million.
Happiness is the start of everything and I have discovered that it is the thoughts about money that depresses people. The person I mentioned earlier, who has global assets, and by the way, in obtaining his wealth, had a real cavalier character, spends his time worrying about holding his wealth together.
It is amazing how our mind plays tricks on us with regards the future. When this guy was amassing his fortune, he never saw any problems in the future, only positive outcomes, although there were many failures along the way, he just carried on. As time is taken away from us with ageing, that attitude that is so easy to adopt when there is time to put things right, suddenly gets eroded and we tend to start looking at all the negative things that can happen.
The universal law of attracting what your dominant thought is, does not go into hibernation just because you are getting older, infact in my experience, it seems to respond a lot quicker with age, or maybe it is the fact that you trust it working more if you have had years of results, both good and not so good.
Although this guy has all these assets, he is missing the greatest thing of all, passive income or cash flow. Access to actual regular income is the thing that everyone should be aspiring to. It is the greatest thing you can put in place while you are setting up your life and preparing for the time you decide to start fully living it. I have found that the amount of money required on a regular basis to live, (presupposing there is no debt that is not self servicing), is really a lot less than most people think.
I personally do not feel the need to have toys anymore, and on my travels I get to share wonderful things with people who have lots of toys, whether they be boats, villas in exotic locations, luxury cars, private planes, enormous houses etc. and a multitude of other things, but as with everything that has' toy' status, or 'look at me' status, you eventually ask yourself the question, "What else does it do?"
Most people in the financial situation that allows them to buy these things, very rarely purchase them for a need to satisfy any deep wish, it is invariably done to garnish their life, and as mentioned before does not give satisfaction or fulfillment on a long term basis.However if all that, is truly what you desire,and you genuinely will get long term enjoyment from it, go for your life, but be sure it really is what you desire.
I met a guy who collected vintage cars and the pleasure he got from his collection was obvious, and as he showed me round, I could feel the enjoyment he was getting as he told the history of each one, and how he had found it and rebuilt it. That is a totally different thing, because that is an interest that he has, and is also his hobby. It really was no different to someone collecting bottle tops or cigarette cards, the fact that his collection was worth several millions gave him the same feelings as the person collecting lower priced things.
The above is an example of making sure that you know what you want to do with your money, to give you enjoyment. It is no good just heading off and trying to get hold of as much as possible, and saying I will decide what to do with it when I get it. Invariably if you just set off with the intention of amassing money, you will usually find that you have not only lost the years that you spent getting it, you will more than likely have ignored your family and friends on the way through, so you eventually arrive at a very lonely place and somehow the money does not compensate for the position you find yourself in.
Always have what you want to do with the money as your goal, not the money itself.
Being rich means different things to different people, and those of you who have read any of my stuff will know that my definition of rich is very simple, and although money is part of it, it is only a tool to allow you to do the things you want to do. I believe rich is, being able to do what you want to do, when you want to do it, and have enough TIME and MONEY to allow you to do it.
I have had lots of toys and also lived in some beautiful houses, I owned a Bentley when I was seventeen, I drove Rolls Royces during my "look at me years", and always tried to have enough time to do the things I wanted to do, but looking back I enjoyed those things mainly because I wanted them at the time, and my goal was to get the money to allow me to have them.
It is very confusing trying to report on wealth, because many people think that lots of things I say are sour grapes, and I say them, because I cannot afford them, but I have made a conscious decision not to even try and get the type of money required to live like that. When I was about 20, I was seated next to one of the richest men in the world at the time, Tiny Rowland, and it was that conversation that actually shaped my views on mega wealth. He told me how fortunate I was to have time to do what I wanted, as his life was full of things he HAD to do, and he was lucky to get time to himself, even at weekends. From what I can gather he loved his wheeling and dealing, but he would still have loved the opportunity to have time to himself.
That statement affected my life, and although I did not realise how much until recently, I am very grateful for having taken on board the lesson I learned that day.
I said earlier that most stress is caused by thinking about money, either the lack of it, or worrying about losing it, it is an essential part of our lives, but just lately it has taken on a whole new aura, because it is now such an uncertain commodity, and people are in overdrive trying to decide what to do. Strange thing but the thing we have spent our lives trying to obtain so that we can relax in our later years is now the very thing that is causing worry and stress, and the more you have, the bigger the headache.
So what is the answer, how do we balance our lives and get a sense of harmony? Well the first thing to do is to re introduce yourself to you. What is it you really want, forget all the huge yachts and the big house in Hollywood (unless of course that is what you truly desire) and go deep and find out what it is you want to do, or where you want to live, who you want to be with, just let yourself go and find out what you really want out of your life.
Once you have got a clear picture of what it is you want, just fix that vision firmly in your head and try and feel how you would feel once you achieve it. There are many exercises and advice on the website to help you with this preparation http://www.croz.com.au and with the right mindset, there are many ways to sort finances out.
The reason for commenting on the upper end of wealth is to try and show that sometimes you can set your sights too high and feel that you are too far away to effect any change, when in reality the place you think you want to be is in fact not such a great place. It is in having your vision perfectly clear, that will ensure that you will eventually achieve it.

Every success story starts as an idea. All big things were ideas first, before they become a reality. Our brain is like an electrical power station and thoughts are like electric impulses that feed our creativity. We have no clue how much power and potential We have in our brain.
Before you start your success story, you have to decide what you want. You have to have a very clear vision of your desires.
Step 1: Write down some specific things you want to achieve. If you want more money, write down the exact amount of money you want to earn.
Step 2: In this step you have to decide what you intend to give in return for the amount of money you desire. You know there is no such thing as something for nothing. Again, be specific what you will give for the good that you desire.
Step 3: Write down the definite date when you will get the money. When you set a goal you have to put a time limit on it. Think about how long will this take you. It's important not to give yourself an enormous amount of time. Give it six months or a year maximum. If you don't achieve it. Give yourself an extension.
Step 4: In this step you will create a plan how you will achieve your goal. It is important that you begin at once. Taking action is very important. You gotta put the energy out for universe to send it right back to you. What can you do today to get the good that you desire.
Step 5: In the fifth step is the time to regroup. This step is the composite of the first four steps. You have your four steps written down on a sheet of pepper. Read it every day. The repetition brings you closer to success. For a habit and read your goal every day. Put it on a wall somewhere you can see it every day.
Step 6: This will work for anything, not just money. In this step you have to back your goal with emotion. Read your goal twice a day. When you wake up and before you go to sleep. While you are reading it, see yourself already in the possession of the money. It is important that everything is in the present tense. You have to believe you can do it, because this will put you in the right positive vibration.
I know it is very hard to develop faith in yourself. You will believe in yourself if you do this every. Like I said before, repetition brings you closer to success, and it will also help you to believe in yourself. People who don't make it, are the people who don't do it every day. They get lazy. Don't be lazy, take action.

With the economic recession hovering like a dark cloud over companies across the globe, many entrepreneurs are re-evaluating strategies of doing business.
