I wanted to share a pearl of wisdom which I believe will be vital to your home based travel business - or any other business, for that matter. Actually it may even benefit your individual life. I have a photo of myself surrounded by my four children (including my newborn) at our local hospital. This photo represents joy. I am surrounded by my pearls and my lovely wife took the photo!

Why do I mention this? Well, throughout the years I have received many comments such as - “you are too young to have children, 2 children - wow! (3 … 4… children!!!!), you must be Crazy!” The main stream of comment revolved around how unlucky we were or that we were crazy to have so many children at a young age. Many would think that we had not planned to have four children, that we should have “purchased pay TV” - or “entertained ourselves in other ways!”

But my friends, the truth of the matter was that my wife and I knew the blessings that a family brings. We knew the joy that would come into our lives having to tend, care and nurture our children. Not everyone can have this blessing and gift. We planned to have children, we planned to provide for our children, and we planned everything!

Now, not all of our plans went the way we wanted them to - but I’m happy to say that most have gone either the way we planned or exceeded our expectations.

It’s funny, because business is exactly the same in terms of planning. Do you honestly think for one moment that a successful business entrepreneur in the home based travel industry or any other business industry achieved their success by luck? NO WAY! They have planned EVERYTHING. Starting from:

1. What the individual wants to achieve.

2. What Internet Marketing or business knowledge they need to acquire

3. What sacrifices need to be considered for success

4. What happens IF they do not achieve quick success, and what happens if they do?

Everything is planned and therefore the person begins to attract the success they have planned. The fool is the person who thinks that the law of attraction is only positive thinking. It is a bit like saying mathematics is multiplication. Yes it is true that multiplication is part of mathematics BUT there is SO MUCH MORE to mathematics than just multiplication.

There is so much more to the LAW of ATTRACTION than just positive thinking. You plan for success, your goals are aimed to achieve success you put yourself in the way of success. If you do this then success will hit you.

A home travel business or any other business venture needs planning. Does one ponder the reason that over 95% of home based business owners fail? I have and have come to the conclusion that one of the factors would rest at the fact that the individual did not adequately plan. Plan a way around failure. If that means returning to your employment for a short period of time - then so be it - But do have a plan.

NEVER Change you end goal.

By changing your end goal you change your vision, you change your focus. You become soft and wayward. Your plans will never be worthwhile if the end destination keeps changing.

A final note to the reader. Create your Goal. Design a plan step by step in order to attain that Goal. Execute Your Plan. Plans may be modified - but Do not Change your Goal.

Plan for Success - Execute Your Plan.

There is a tide in the affairs of men,
which taken at the flood leads on to fortune;
Omitted, all the voyage of their life
is bound in shallows and in miseries.”
[William Shakespeare, Julius Caesar]

It has been said many times that timing is everything. However
which timing to use can be so confusing. Many systems, many
ideas, many concepts.

One basic, simple system that I have seen work thousands of
times, is to use 2 parts of the lunar cycle.

The first is the period from the New Moon to the Full Moon, and
the second is the period from the Full Moon to the New Moon.

The Waxing Phase:

The New Moon, which is the darkest phase of the Moon, is also the
start of a two week period where the moon increases in light. New
Moons are optimal times to set new intentions. One cycle is
ending, while another cycle is beginning.

The New Moon is the first part of the lunar cycle. The New Moon
is the part of the lunar cycle to focus within to create or
plant your intention. This intention is your vision for what
you want to create, grow and transform during this lunar cycle.

If you take this idea and apply it into your life, the waxing
moon is the time to begin
to plant your new seeds. These are seeds of taking action that
brings a new idea into physical reality, or that begins a new
relationship, or just opening to yourself that you really want a
change. The waxing moon is a time of action.

The New Moon is a powerful time to start new projects. It is the
time to take action. First have a clear intention and take action
from that intention.

The second part of this cycle is the period of time between the
Full Moon and the New Moon- the Waning Phase.

The Waning Moon phase is when the Moon is decreasing in light.
This is a time to complete and review. It is not a good time to
begin a new project. This is due to the lessening of the energies
of the lunar cycle. Projects that are started during a Waning
Phase tend to be ones that are not completed.

During the Waning Moon phase is a perfect time to give out and
share the knowledge, insights and any profits from your actions.
Clear your life of projects and business that has not been
completed. Clear your working space, finish all the
administrative work that you have been delaying until now. All of
these actions will allow you to benefit from the next New Moon.

If the opportunity arises for a new project or you have a great
new idea, it is best to just let it stay on the back burner until
the next New Moon. The New Moon will usually provide a very
changed perspective on ideas and projects.

The simplest way to understand both timing cycles is to use the
New Moon to Full Moon time for action, and the Full Moon to New
Moon time for reflection and planning the next action phase.

Most calendars have the New Moon and Full Moon dates listed on
them. Try this timing in your business and personal life. It will
attract great success to your work and personal life.

To make a start toward success, you need two things.

First, you need to identify what’s in your life now that you want to be rid of. Second, you need to know what you want to replace it with.

1. What you don’t want — that’s where you are now.

2. What you do want — that’s where you want to be.

Once you have these two things clearly settled in your mind, you’re ahead of the vast majority of the world. Just as an experiment, sometime, go around asking people what they want, or what they want to do with their life. You’ll get “I don’t know” 97 or 98 times out of a hundred.

However, if you’re one of those who isn’t quite sure what you want, don’t despair. Discovering your desires isn’t all that hard to do.

Let’s start with where you are now. What is it about your current life that really irritates you? Not enough money? Too many bills? Health problems? No love life? Somebody bossing you around all the time?

Whatever it is that’s making your life uncomfortable, I’ve got some good news. We’re going to take those money problems or the love problems or the health problems, and we’re going to find a positive use for them.

Instead of letting those problem always use YOU, you’re going to learn you to get some positive use out of THEM for a change.

The way we do that is simple. Use your “don’t wants” as a launching pad. Say something like “This is where I am, and I don’t want to be here. I want to find my way to a better place.”

If you know exactly how you want your life to improve, write it down. That’s your target. If you’re not sure yet, do this. Take the way your life is now, and describe your main problem, the one you want to be rid of. Then start changing the description.

Let’s say your problem is a lack of respect from co-workers and family. Write out a description of the exact opposite condition, if somehow your problem were miraculously changed. If you’re not accustomed to thinking in terms of goals and proactive change, this can be a shortcut to defining what you want.

Many of us are bowed down by life stressed, short of time, tired, on a treadmill, knowing that this isnt the way to live, but not knowing how to free ourselves up to live more fully, more abundantly. There are simple things we can do they dont take time or money they take a change of attitude. Here are 9 of them:

1. Being totally financially honest if you are not, this implies that there is not enough for you to have everything you need without dishonesty.

2. Creating a vacuum so that more good things can flow into it dont fill your life up with things you dont really want. Ask yourself if you want each thing before you buy it. Dont have abundant rubbish, live abundantly by seeking out the things and experiences that work for you in your core being.

3. Tithing is often associated with religion, but it is also possible to tithe in a non-religious context. This seems a really important aspect of living abundantly every time you freely give money away, you are implying that you are confident that more will come this is a BIG positive affirmation with a lot of power behind it. The traditional amount is 10% of your income. Ive recommended this to lots of people, and theyve told me that when they do this magically - they seem to have more. I started with 10% but now Ive increased it, because Ive seen that the more I give away the more I get back, and the happier and more abundantly I live.

4. Being grateful for what you already have focussing on the good that is already in your life. Its easy to think about what you dont have, but spend some time each day thinking about what you do have. Start each day by thinking of 5 things that you are grateful for and express this out loud.

5. Resentment, jealousy, envy and self-pity interfere with the free-flow of abundance. If you are jealous or envious of someone, it implies that what they have is not available for you to have also. If you find it difficult to let go of these feelings, Bach flower remedies may help. Try the remedy willow to counteract resentment and self-pity, or try holly for envy, jealousy and greed.

6. Forgiving those that have wronged you is part of living abundantly. Holding on to your anger, however justifiable it may seem, keeps you stuck in the past, rather than going forward into a better future. If its difficult to let go of your negative feelings, try writing a letter expressing all your anger, hurt or envy. Write until you can write no more, and then burn it.

7. Being able to receive from other people. Being able to receive is healthy, but many people find it difficult. You may need to practice receiving. Think of the pleasure you get in giving. By not receiving generously you are denying other people the pleasure of giving.

8. Realise that in general good luck plays a very small part in peoples life. (If you put your faith in good luck, then you have to accept the possibility of bad luck too.) People who put their faith in good luck often spend their lives waiting for things to happen. People who dont believe in luck go out and make things happen.

9. Believing that there is enough money, food, love, etc. in the world to meet everyones needs to live abundantly. I left this one till the last, because it can be very hard to believe when faced with war and starvation in the newspapers and on the TV, but a lot of this anger and need is caused because people who have do not believe they have enough, because they substitute money and food for all the other abundance of life. Do your bit to correct that imbalance and start living a life that recognises there are inequalities and shortages, but recognises that we can correct that so we all have what we need.

Let’s get one thing straight — you’re already choosing every tomorrow that comes your way. All events that come raining down upon you, even if they’re tragic, are your own children.

Of course it’s not consciously done, but it IS done nonetheless. All those years of suffering and heartbreak… they’re your doing. So are the poverty and lack. Ditto the loneliness, the boredom, the insecurity and uncertainty. Everything that has ever come your way is a result of things you have chosen.

By the same token, however, you also get to claim credit for the successes, the joys and the good times. Yes, you made them, too.

True, most of the choices you made were decided only by default. You watched the things happening all around you and didn’t know, in most cases, that you even had a right to choose a different course for your destiny. All those overwhelming, overpowering events looked like they were beyond your control, so you simply sat and let them happen before your eyes. Most people think their life is like riding in a roller coaster.

You probably didn’t know that watching passively was the same as deciding, but the fact that you didn’t know only makes it more tragic. The entire message of these lessons is this: you have a choice — you can make things different by first choosing, then acting.

But choosing — there’s a system, a technique to it that can assure you receive what you’re choosing. You’ve been assured again and again by writer after writer, and teacher after teacher, that your thoughts can change your world. They have told you that thinking can make it so. They teach that you become what you think about all day long.

But still, the problems persist. Life does get better — sometimes — but only in fits and starts. Then it’s back down into the pits of despair again. So is it really possible to have the kind of life that you’ve always dreamed of having?

Yes and no. Yes it is possible. No, you can’t get there by continuing only to dream about it.

Disclaimer: All the thoughts expressed are my views only! Your perception might differ…

1. I don’t have time to balance my work and life?

2. Still I don’t get to manage my time well? what do I do?

3. Am I sleep walking through my life?

4. I feel like a failure?

5. I feel bored?

6. I am anxious and I feel frustrated?

7. I don’t know where I’m moving?

8. I don’t get the motivation to come to work?

9. I don’t get enthused about the work?

10. Why this FAQ?

1. I don’t have time to balance my work and life?

The first thing you need to understand is there is no magic in time management! It all depends upon how much you make out of it! Assume that somebody gives you 86400 rupees everyday. The only condition being that you cannot store it, you will have to spend it before the day ends. If you have something left it will be forfeited. What will you do? You tend to make the most out of it. Now, let me ask you something, do you do that same with your 86400 seconds every day? do you make each day of your life count? I guess not! now, IT is upto you to decide what you want to do from here…

2. Still I don’t get to manage my time well? what do I do?

Well,before you start something, just ask a simple question: “Is this task worth my time?” Once you start asking this question, everything will fall in place. One of the world’s costliest resource which can never be replaced is your time. Believe me you can do wonders in a day!

3. Am I sleep walking through my life?

Whatever you do, do you feel bored? do you feel lazy? do you get that feeling that you are useless? do you watch TV in your couch once you hit your house? do you tend to watch atleast a movie a day? If your answer to any of the questions is Yes! then you need to do some hard thinking. You don’t seem to have a GOAL in life. Your vision of your life is blurred. You don’t know what you want to do with your life! you are simply vegetating(sorry for being harsh)… c’mon pull yourself and start living the life of our dreams. If something remains in just your thought, then it is nothing but fantasy.

Ask yourself a couple of questions, when was the last time you did something for the first time? today, yesterday, last week, last month, last year, don’t remember. If your answer to the above question is either one of today, yesterday, last week, then you are living your life. If it is not, think twice, you just have a single life to live! for starters make somebody else’s day …. like: buy some sweets while going home( if you have never done that), visit a friend, whom you have not visited for years etc…

It is a personal decision to decide what you want to do with your life. Incase you are not sure about what to do with your life, you might want to decide on it first! One of the best books that could act as guidepost(s) is “The Magic of Thinking BIG!” live that book and one fine morning you will find that you are living your life of your dreamz!

4. I feel like a failure?

Before getting into the coffee-toffee discussion of success Vs failure, let me explain a few things. When what you expect happens it is termed as “success” and when it does not it is termed as “failure”. That is the main reason why self-help guru(s) talk about never ever giving up. Because only when you fail at something you learn. If you fail to learn from your shortcomings/failure then you are bound to fail again! Just because what you expected did not happen you are not a “failure”. The thought that “you are incapable of achieving something” makes you an failure. A person transforms into a “successful” person when he starts learning from his/others failures. If he does not he remains at the same state, I guess, forever!

5. I feel bored?

There is nothing called boredom, it is just the state of mind where you feel frustrated at something, and you have nothing else to do. So fill up your days, do something that will leave a mark in this world! Have some fun with friends,( but don’t overdo it). head out for a one-day trip, be part of something that has a social cause.

6. I am anxious and I feel frustrated?

Well, that is normal. Just don’t loose your head. Talk to your friends or listen to soft instrumental music, it will lighten your hearts. It happens in everybodies life, C’mon it is not the end of the world! After all you are alive and kicking!!! ( Hey KP’S I used your quote

7. I don’t know where I’m moving?

IT happens in eveybody’s life at different stages of your life. This uncertainity is something that is going to move you ahead win your life! The moment, this thought arises, take your time off. Re-Think about what you want to do with your life. I would say, it is best to re-think what you want to do with your life atleast once a year!

8.I don’t get the motivation to come to work?

Well, motivation droops down when your thoughts are gloomy. You think about the negatives of life i.e you brood about things not happening right! C’mon give me a break, think about the positive things in life. You are healthy, you have a family, you have a job etc.! Start asking questions what is that you have done to make your life better.

Youre highly motivated to change, but you still cant seem to stop behaving in ways you hate. You have excellent problem-solving skills, yet you cant solve the personal ones that plague you the most. You know that if you do your job well, youll probably get a raise and/or a promotion, yet you go ahead and sabotage it. You know that if youre considerate of people youll be well liked, yet you cant stop being rude. You know that if youre careful about saving and investing your money youll probably enjoy a prosperous retirement, yet you spend carelessly. Why cant you figure out how to change your behavior and so change your life? Why, if what youre doing is making you unhappy, cant you stop doing it?

When we have problems that we cant seem to solve, many of us start thinking that were lazy, inexperienced, or maybe even unintelligent. We do this because its too scary for us to conclude the alternative. What is the alternative? That it may not be possible for us to be in control of our lives. If it were so easy to be in control, wouldnt we all just do it? Make the change, stop the pain, live happily?

Free Choice: Do You Really Have It?

This question of whether or not you actually possess free will has been a hot topic for a long, long time. From theologians to philosophers to the parents of teenagers, the question has been discussed and debated ad infinitum. Why? Because free choice and compulsive self-defeating behavior coexist in all of us.

Who Is Fighting for Control of Your Soul?

Its not only God and the Devil who may be fighting for control of your soulyoure right in there too. When you cant believe that youre behaving just like your parent dideven though you promised yourself that youd be different when you were a parent yourselfyou are entering the fray. People usually assume that they can control their lives because much of the time, by following good advice, by applying rational strategies, or by appreciating the lessons from past experience, they do in fact succeed. Yet, at the same time, many of us also recognize that our free will is limited. We recognize this most often when we come face-to-face with an example of our self-defeating behavior and we know that this behavior hasnt budged even though weve done our best to overcome it. Which leads me to ask . . .

Willpower and Self-Interest: Enough to Make You Change?

When a magazine presents you with Five Easy Steps to Losing Weight, when an audio series offers Four Tapes to Investment Success, and a TV personality does back-to-back shows on The Ins & Outs of Good Parenting, you know that if you actually had control over life, achieving these goals and improving your life would be as simple as buying a subscription, purchasing some tapes, or turning on the TV. Nice and easy, right? Dont we wish. But what happens when we do all of the above and we wind up failing anyway? What are we left to believe about ourselves? Im lazy. Im stupid. Im a screwup. But heres something to think about. Were you lazy when you were looking for a date on a computer dating service and you went through hundreds of potential matches? Is that what a lazy person does? Were you a screwup when you wanted a job and went out and made sure you got the right training to do it well? Is that what a screwup does? And when it came to learning how to use your new computer and you managed just fine, was that being stupid?

So actually, those reasons wont work with you across the board, will they? Then what will? Because it is getting pretty frustrating not being able to use your intelligence, your energy, your determination to succeed in all areas of your life. The solution exists and it lies in our hidden self-destructive motivations.

If you could understand the nature of your hidden negative motivations, you could use that information to change. What if you had an illness, but you didnt know it was caused by a specific germ? Your suffering could be long and needless because you might not know which of the available antibiotics was the right one to take. Or, lets say you wanted to make yourself more attractive but you lived in a world without mirrors. It would be difficult for you to know what to do. Did you need to improve you hair, your complexion, or your teeth or your skin? These examples show us the important concept: to solve any problem and change your life . . . look for the underlying causes.

People want to be successful and happy in life. Period. So if you find yourself behaving in ways that you hate, getting bad reactions from people around you, and having little success using willpower and advice to change those actions, wouldnt it seem that something beyond your control is dictating your actions?

Youre like a well-made ship piloted by a captain who forgot to bring the navigation charts on the voyage. All of the captains successes in other areas of his life wont help him on this particular voyage. So in the next article, The Major Behaviors We Hate lets roll out our own ships charts and see how to navigate the choppy seas of our lives.

Releasing the Illusion of Control
It's amazing how easy it is to convince ourselves that we're in control of everything in our lives. When it comes right down to it, what we eventually learn is that we are in control of only two things: our own thoughts, and our own actions. We can fool ourselves into thinking that we can control our spouses, children, friends, employers, etc. But ...

Lets face it. We all want to be popular. Popular with friends, relatives (well, maybe not relativesjust kidding), coworkers, bosses, and so on. Popularity is associated with fun times, success, prosperity, and a whole array of other positive thoughts and emotions. After all, when you think of the most popular boy or girl in high school, what pictures come to mind? In the case of the girl, you might envision the prettiest girl with the best smile and personality, perhaps captain of the cheerleaders. For the boy, you might think football quarterback, best athlete, or just plain best looking kid with the highest academics. Granted, these descriptions might not match exactly what came into your mind, but I think you get the point: when people conjure up images of the popular ones, they tend to think the best looking, the best dresser or something along this line.

None of us though has any control over the genetics part, and therefore we may not have been born one of the so called beautiful people, who are paraded like starlights on the covers of magazines; nor fortunate enough to have been endowed with unrivaled athletic talent. However, it is indeed true that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. After all, have you not had the experience of meeting a very handsome man or woman of such abrasive qualities that you would not think to be associated with this person, despite all the good looks? On the contrary, have you not met people who, despite just average looks, average physical builds, or average talents, possessed some magnetic charm that forced you to absolutely fall in love with them, if even in a platonic way?

Being born beautiful, rich, or with exceptional talent does not guarantee popularity. Having these attributes certainly gives you a huge advantage, but how many times have you come across or read about someone who is beautiful and talented, yet is an absolute boor: crude, ill-mannered, excessively self-centered, egocentric? Any or all of the these? You would think that such individuals would get down on their knees everyday and thank God for having blessed them beyond measure; yet often thankfulness is severely lacking in these individuals, and they are the epitome of recycled dross. True. Rich people can buy others and even buy popularityto a certain extent. But this is not true popularity as the old cliche is appropriate: Money cant buy class.

In its deepest sense, that saying is true. To drive my point home, I refer to the blockbuster remake of the movie Titanic. In that movie the character Cal, Roses fianc, was rich, educated, and even dashingly handsome. He had it allon the surface. Yet as the plot developed and the successive layers of his personality were revealed, something of a different ilk was exposed: boorishness. Cal did not impress favorably, neither did his character bespeak popularity. He was beyond arrogant, and his demeanor was downright irritating. In the end, he lost it all including his life. As Rose recounts the history, we learn that during the Great Depression Cal committed suicide after he lost the only things that made him feel a sense of worthhis material possessions.

In my years of observing people interacting with others, I have catalogued seven keys which are employed by those individuals we would classify as being popular. These keys are cut from common sense and age-old wisdom, yet surprisingly they are rarely used by the majority of people. Those who understand these keys and employ them consistently are the so called popular ones. Essentially, the keys allow one to make good impressions on a consistent basis. As one makes good impressions, one becomes popular. The keys are the door openers to making good impressions. Possess the keys, use them effectively, and you are on the road to instant popularity.

So what are the keys? Ah, you will be surprised at how unsophisticated these keys are. Stay tuned as we explore these further…

When you have an important event to attend there are 7 great ways to make sure you perform at your very best. These tips are relevant for social events and business meetings. Discover how to communicate with confidence while making great conversation.

1. Decide what you want to say before the event. Review it in your mind to make sure it sounds okay. Keep rehearsing it until you can say it with conviction and confidence.

2. Consider your potential listeners. Who will you be talking to and which topics of conversation will be welcome? You need to make sure your message matches your audience.

3. Be yourself. The worst mistake is to pretend you are something you are not. People will see through you and distrust everything you say. Even if you communicate clearly and with confidence.

4. Never expect things to work out perfectly. Be ready to deal with problems by deciding in advance what you will do. What will you do if people ignore your input? Now is the time to decide and not later on in the heat of the moment.

5. Be flexible in your approach. Different people need to be treated differently. Pay very close attention to how people respond to what you say and keep adjusting your approach until you have a good rapport with your listener.

6. Make the other person the focus of your attention and let him lead the conversation in the early stages. Let that person steer the conversation onto topics that are of interest to him.

7. Anticipate what could go wrong. Then do what you can to make sure those scenarios do not occur. Adequate planning is the key to performing at your best in the moment.

What are the things a guy should do to attract girls? Most men that consulted a dating consultant were asked the same question that is, “what are the things a guy should do to attract girls?”

It is just not the men who go to consultants who get asked this question. All men at some point in their lives have asked themselves the same question. It is really simple. To attract a women to you show her something about yourself that she will be irresistibly attracted to.

What men forget that if they are like every other common man a women meets then why would she be with you and not someone else? Look out for that certain quality that you have that the next 10 guys standing next you do not possess.

What can you give a woman that is rare? It should be some thing that she won’t find with another guy easily. That is, in a way of speaking, your trump card. Once you have that trump card in your hand, attracting women would no longer be a problem for you. You would be able to attract them to you easily and successfully.

Here are some points that you should look into for in most cases these points will help you find or create you trump card to attracting women to you.

Your self esteem:

Men often comment that women are attracted to men who have fame and money in their pockets. It is not always because they are treasure hunters. It is also about something else.

Have you ever noticed how men with fame and money carry themselves? It is definitely different from an average guy on the street. Fame and money gives you something that sets you apart from the crowd. This something is a high self esteem and confidence about yourself that draws people to you. It creates an aura of power and position. These men carry themselves with absolute confidence. This is what attracts women to them like bees to a bonnet.

This is the kind confidence in yourself you need to attract women. If you can achieve this you will be shocked to find that women you never dreamed of approaching on your own because you thought that they were so out of your league, will approach you. So are you ready?

Doting on good looking women:

The one thing that most men do wrong is that they treat the good looking women like they are goddesses who have blessed us all by being among us. There is a difference in making a girl feel special and about spoiling her so much that she would start looking down on others. If you make her feel that she is doing you a favor by giving you her attention then you are yourself asking her to look down on you.

Make a girl understand that she is special enough for you to like her but she is not the queen of the world. Treat her like a normal person and you will have her attention. She will be attracted to you because you don’t treat her like everyone else does.
