Hope of gain

Most of us are familiar with the saying, “haters are going to hate.”  But one thing a lot of people don’t talk about is how to handle when everyone wants to see you fail.  Rumors, gossip, and hearsay can be a bitch especially when it comes from those close to you.  Over the last several months both Edson and I have posted blog posts on how the fear of loss is much greater than the hope of gain.

Through social media and other mass mediums our culture has become very materialistic.  Often times those that have succeeded in business are viewed “better than” someone who is making an “average” living. Let’s take a look at reality television for a moment.  How many shows are on the cable networks now days where individuals are made famous simply because the way they act on television.  Living in their big mansions, driving their luxury cars, with their biggest problem of the day being who said what while drinking bottles of liquor at the club.  I personally feel that some of this is getting ridiculous!  Seriously what is wrong with people?!

Working online I have had the privilege of seeing some individuals find success in a very short period of time.  It’s not that working online is easy but it’s scalable because you’re not surrounded by four walls and limited to local business.  Depending on your product or service you can have customers around the globe. Look at the powerhouses: Google, Facebook, Amazon, etc.  They all have visitors around the globe clicking ads and interacting on their properties.  Mark Zuckerberg had a great idea but he was able to scale so big because his service reached a global audience and with the Internet he had no boundaries. The same goes with many online businesses.  If the product or service is useful and does not suck then it has the potential to reach great revenues sometimes even hitting a “snowball” effect.

Unfortunately success also brings along jealousy and envy.  Using affiliate marketing as an example, how fun is it to see the person you sat beside in college get out and scale their business to millions of dollars a year while you’re still working for “the man” making the modest Tz 600,000 a year?  This irks some people because they wonder “why not them.”  Sometimes this makes them jealous or very envious.  To your face they’re nice to you and praise you for your success but secretly they lie awake at night just waiting for the second you fail.  They may even give it a shot themselves to see if they can’t achieve your level of success but quickly get frustrated and give up when they don’t see results.

A lot of affiliates remember the “rebill days” in 2008 – 2009.  People that had never made a dollar before online quickly scaled to hundreds of thousands of dollars a month.  Profits were very large and quickly lifestyles changed.  Some took this opportunity to invest in other projects and quickly diversify creating very long term business models.  Others spent the money as quick as it came in.  Stemming from a number of changes in the industry unfortunately those that didn’t diversify their businesses and had their eggs all in one basket were found going back out and getting a 9-5 job or latching on to whatever they can to try and avoid having to go “back to work.”  How satisfied to you think many of the haters out there are when they see something like this?  They’re going to be quick to troll you anywa

y they can because they feel a sense of gratitude.

Starting your own business is very challenging.  It can take a toll on your mentally and physically because the hours are never set in stone.  You’re going to have to get up early and stay up late.  While everyone is out on the weekends you’re going to be stuck in dealing with the growing pains especially when you really start to gain leverage.  With all of this going against you it can be very challenging if you don’t have the support of everyone around you.  Rather it be your spouse, your family, or your best friend it’s important to develop a support, but if that’s not possible then you need to be able to block what others say, keep your head up, and focus on the big picture.

Those of you out there reading this that are thinking about starting your own business I want to provide you with a bit of encouragement.  You cannot control actions of those around you but you can control your actions.  Keep focused on your goal and work as hard as possible.  In my experience of working online for the last 2 years, I have never included “can’t” in my vocabulary.  I always say “how can I.”  Those that doubt me are just background noise.  I don’t let them get to me and I continue doing what I love everyday.  Those of you out there reading this that are already successful growing your business, congratulations!  Let those that doubt you continue to talk while you remain focused on growing your future and career!

Best day of my life.

Today, when I awoke, I suddenly realized that this is the best day of my life, ever!There were times when I wondered if I would make it to today; but I did!And because I did I'm going to celebrate!

Today, I'm going to celebrate what an unbelievable life I have had so far: the accomplishments, the many blessings, and, yes, even the hardships because they have served to make me stronger.I will go through this day with my head held high, and a happy heart.I will marvel at nature's seemingly simple gifts: the morning dew, the sun, the clouds, the trees, the flowers, the birds.

Today, none of these miraculous creations will escape my notice.Today, I will share my excitement for life with other people. I'll make someone smile.I'll go out of my way to perform an unexpected act of kindness for someone I don't even know.

Today, I'll give a sincere compliment to someone who seems down.I'll tell a child how special he is, and I'll tell someone I love just how deeply I care for them and how much they mean to me.

Today is the day I quit worrying about what I don't have and start being grateful for all the wonderful things God has already given me.I'll remember that to worry is just a waste of time because my faith in God and his Divine Plan ensures everything will be just fine.And tonight, before I go to bed, I'll go outside and raise my eyes to the heavens.

I will stand in awe at the beauty of the stars and the moon, and I will praise nature for these magnificent treasures.As the day ends and I lay my head down on my pillow, I will thank the Almighty for the best day of my life.And I will sleep the sleep of a contented child, excited with expectation because I know tomorrow is going to be the best day of my life, ever!

 Today I am going to tell you about the problems  faced by university students, which needs a life changer to provide a smooth run in different high institutions of learning. Most of students lack tuition fee due to imperiousness of the government support. Parents mostly play a great role in life and help their kids by providing relevant material in school. They struggle hard in agriculture activities [80%  of the population rely on agricultural products] to ensure that ends meet difficultly.  Since downfall  of the colonial rule, the government has not performed to it's best to provide essential service by the people BUT that doesn't mean failure we can still make it on our own as the community.

    “Supporting one child means supporting the family.”One thing that I want to highlight is how Child Fund’s work is fruitful. There are many successful people " I can say that Child Fund is just as important as our blood circulation" who are working in many areas in different organizations. Supporting one child means supporting the family. For instance, my family has benefited a lot. I have created work opportunities for my elder siblings by supporting them financially, and I was able to teach my younger sibling. I am sure that I will keep on improving and give credit to Child Fund often. I want to be a role model and pass this message on to other children who are receiving support from Child Fund to give credit to people helping. I hope that our children will attain similar success to what I have achieved now. "SUPPORT THE SAVE THE WORLD" PLEASE SHARE THIS

Never give up..

For many years the person who has been hindering our growth in our live passed away. We invite you to join the funeral in the room that has been prepared in .

In the beginning, they all got sad for the death of one of their colleagues, but after a while they started getting curious to know who was that man who hindered the growth of my colleagues.

The excitement in the room was such that security agents were ordered to control the crowd within the room. The more people reached the room, the more the excitement heated up. Everyone thought: Who is this guy who was hindering my progress? Well, at least he died!
One by one the thrilled colleagues got closer to the coffin, and when they looked inside it they suddenly became speechless. They stood nearby the coffin, shocked and in silence, as if someone had touched the deepest part of their soul. There was a enough inside the coffin: everyone who looked inside it could see himself.

There is only one person who is capable to set limits to your growth: IT IS YOU. You are the only person who can revolutionize your life. You are the only person who can influence your happiness, your realization and your success. You are the only person who can help yourself.
Your life does not change when your boss changes, when your friends change, when your teachers change, when your partner changes, when your company changes. Your life changes when YOU change, when you go beyond your limiting beliefs, when you realize that you are the only one responsible for your life.

The most important relationship you can have, is the one you have with yourself. Examine yourself, watch yourself. Don't be afraid of difficulties, impossibilities and losses: be a winner, build yourself and your reality.

The world is like a reflection: it gives back to anyone the reflection of the thoughts in which one has strongly believed. The world and your reality are like mirrors laying in ahead of us, which show to any individual the death of his divine capability to imagine and create his happiness and his success.

It's the way you face Life that makes the difference! If an egg is broken from outside force... life ends. If an egg is broken from inside force... life begins. Great things always begin from our inside always in that in your mind and archive your dreams ...

Magaret Thatcher dies..

via alternet

 

 

 

Margaret Thatcher, the first woman ever to serve as prime minister of Great Britain and the longest-serving British prime minister of the 20th century has died at age 87.

"It is with great sadness that Mark and Carol Thatcher announced that their mother Baroness Thatcher died peacefully following a stroke this morning," Lord Timothy Bell said today. "A further statement will be made later."

Thatcher had significant health problems in her later years, suffering several small strokes and, according to her daughter, struggling with dementia.

In Dec. 2012, she was underwent an operation to remove a bladder growth, longtime adviser Tim Bell told The Associated Press.

But during her long career on the political stage, Thatcher was known as the Iron Lady. She led Great Britain as Prime Minister from 1979 to 1990, a champion of free-market policies and adversary of the Soviet Union.

Many considered her Britain's Ronald Reagan. In fact, Reagan and Thatcher were political soul mates. Reagan called her the "best man in England" and she called him "the second most important man in my life." The two shared a hatred of communism and a passion for small government. What America knew as "Reaganomics" is still called "Thatcherism" in Britain.

Like Reagan, Thatcher was an outsider in the old boys' club. Just as it was unlikely for an actor to lead the Republicans, the party of Lincoln, it was unthinkable that a grocer's daughter could lead the Conservatives, the party of Churchill and William Pitt -- that is, until Thatcher. She led the Conservatives from 1975 to 1990, the only woman ever to do so.

Personal Life

Thatcher was born Margaret Hilda Roberts on Oct. 13, 1925 in Grantham, England. She attended Somerville College, Oxford, where she studied chemistry, and later, in 1953, qualified as a barrister, specializing in tax issues.

She married Denis Thatcher on Dec. 13, 1951, and their marriage lasted for nearly 52 years until his death in June 2003. The couple had twins, Mark and Carol, in 1953.

When Thatcher was elected to Britain's House of Commons in 1959, she was its youngest female member. In 1970, when the Conservatives took power, she was made Britain's secretary of state for education and science. In 1975, she was chosen to lead the Conservatives, and she became the prime minister in 1979.

Her policies were controversial. She took on the nation's labor unions, forcing coal miners to return to work after a year on strike.

"We should back the workers and not the shirkers," she said in May 1978.

She pushed for privatization, lower taxes, and deregulation. And she sought to keep Britain from surrendering any of its sovereignty to the European Union.

In the inner cities, Thatcherism brought a violent backlash. There were calls from her own party to change course. But Thatcher resisted.

"You turn if you want to," she said in October 1980. "The lady's not for turning."

She had courage in abundance. In 1982, when Argentina invaded the Falkland Islands, she took Britain to war -- and won.

In 1984, she narrowly escaped being killed when the IRA bombed her hotel during a party conference. The morning after, she convened the conference on schedule -- undaunted.

She recognized Mikhail Gorbachev as a man who could help to end the Cold War, commenting famously, "I like Mr. Gorbachev. We can do business together."

Ronald Reagan thought so, too. Together, Thatcher and Reagan savored victory in the Cold War as their proudest achievement. But while Alzheimer's forced Reagan to retire from public life, Thatcher kept on long after leaving Downing Street.

She became Baroness Thatcher, a symbolic leader for a party that struggled to find a worthy successor.

By the time of President Reagan's funeral in 2004, Lady Thatcher had already suffered several strokes. She was a silent witness at her friend's farewell, but she had the foresight to record a eulogy for Reagan several months earlier.

"As the last journey of this faithful pilgrim took him beyond the sunset, and as heaven's morning broke, I like to think -- in the words of Bunyan -- that 'all the trumpets sounded on the other side," she said.
