I Believe..!!!

A Birth Certificate shows that we were born
A Death Certificate shows that we died
Pictures show that we lived!
Have a seat . Relax . . .
And read this slowly.

I Believe...
That just because two people argue,
It doesn't mean they don't love each other.
And just because they don't argue,
It doesn't mean they do love each other.

I Believe...
That we don't have to change friends if
We understand that friends change.

I Believe....
That no matter how good a friend is,
they're going to hurt you every once in a while
and you must forgive them for that.

I Believe...
That true friendship continues to grow,
even over the longest distance.
Same goes for true love.

I Believe...
That you can do something in an instant
That will give you heartache for life.

I Believe....
That it's taking me a long time
To become the person I want to be.

I Believe...
That you should always leave loved ones with
Loving words. It may be the last time you see them.

I Believe....
That you can keep going long after you think you can't.

I Believe....
That we are responsible for what
We do, no matter how we feel.

I Believe...
That either you control your attitude or it controls you.

I Believe...
That heroes are the people who do what has to be done when it needs
to be done, regardless of the consequences.

I Believe....
That my best friend and I can do anything or nothing and have the best time.

I Believe....
That sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you're down
will be the ones to help you get back up.

I Believe...
That sometimes when I'm angry
I have the right to be angry,
But that doesn't give me the right to be cruel.

I Believe....
That maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you've had
And what you've learned from them and less to do with how many
birthdays you've celebrated.

I Believe....
That it isn't always enough,
to be forgiven by others.
Sometimes, you have to learn to forgive yourself.

I Believe...
That no matter how bad your heart is broken
the world doesn't stop for your grief.

I Believe....
That our background and circumstances
may have influenced who we are,
But, we are responsible for who we become.

I Believe...
That you shouldn't be so eager to find
Out a secret. It could change your life Forever.

I Believe....
Two people can look at the exact same
Thing and see something totally different.

I Believe...
That your life can be changed in a matter of
Hours by people who don't even know you.

I Believe...
That even when you think you have no more to give,
When a friend cries out to you -
you will find the strength to help.

I Believe...
That credentials on the wall
do not make you a decent human being.

I Believe...
That the people you care about most in life
are taken from you too soon.

I Believe...
That you should share this to
all of the people that you believe in, like i just did.

Ten Internet Marketing Tips that Will Explode Your Business

One of the biggest frustrations or mistakes people make in having an online business is generating traffic to their websites. There is no point having a fancy looking website that just sits there with no traffic. The problem also lies within a large proportion of home businesses is that they do not teach you effective marketing strategies and instead lead you to believe that sending offline traffic to a replicated website will build your business.

There are so many options out there for people to learn internet marketing and get the marketing education that they need but it certainly helps to have it all in the one place so you dont have to spend months of time and thousands of dollars to learn the skills.I am going to share with you the top 10 tips in creating a online presence and becoming a master marketer.

1) Read Magnetic Sponsoring . I dont care what industry you are in – this is a must for learning how to become the hunted instead of the hunter.

2) Brand Yourself - Learn to become a leader. Give value and position yourself as a leader with personal branding

3) Learn copywriting – This skill is invaluable in order for you to learn how to use words that get people to take action.

4) Use Social Media – Use sites like Facebook, You Tube and Twitter to help create your online presence. Do no spam people with your opportunity or pitch people, learn to be yourself and attract people to get to know you.

5) Build Your Own List - This is so important that you use an autoresponder service that allows you toown your own list that you can market to and not filtering your traffic to a system.

6) Autoresponder Marketing - Personalise your autoresponders and build a relationship with your list by weaving your story and your message into your messages.

7) Google Adwords PPC - Do whatever you have to , to learn and master Google Adwords. You definetely need to be learning from the best to master this but when you do it can create six figures a month.

8) Master One Method at a Time - You have heard the saying “Jack of all trades – master of none” . Focus on one lead generation method until you master it before you move on. Dont try and learn everything at once.

9) Keyword Research - Know your target market first, do your keyword research and build your content, articles, videos etc all around those keywords.

10) Mindset – To get different results you need to become a different person. In my opinion mindset comes before skill.

How do you handle the dreaded salary question?

In an interview you will be asked two questions about compensation. If you do not handle them correctly it will be the end of the interview process or cost you a lot of money.
The first question is about earnings history. “What are you earning or what did you earn in your most recent job”?The second question is about your required compensation. “What do you need “? “What are you looking for”?

I will not review the bad advice but will cover the correct answers to both questions. The first question about earnings history must be answered honestly and accurately. Since it can easily be verified there is no point in trying to dodge the question so tell the truth. There are no circumstances that justify anything else.

The harder question that everybody frets over is what are you looking for?

One thing you never want to do is give a fixed number. Any number high or low will hurt you. Let’s look at what giving a number will do.

If the number is to high your interview process will end. The opportunity may have been so great that you might have considered it for less but in the beginning of the process it is too early to tell and the number you give assures you will never find out. Giving a number cost you the job. What if you decide to play it safe and give a low number? Suppose you say you would like 60K. If the employer was prepared to go to 65K you just lost 5K because like everybody else he wants to save money and if he thinks he can get you for 60K that is exactly what he will offer. Giving a low number cost you money and giving a high number cost you the job.

So if you can’t give a number what do you do?

You give the following answer;

My reason for being here is to evaluate the opportunity just as you are evaluating my fit for your organization. If the opportunity is everything I want and I satisfy all your needs I’m sure the money will not be an issue.

In most cases that will be the end of it. Some interviewers may push you by saying something like, I know you are primarily interested in the opportunity but really, what are your salary expectations?

In this case turn the question around on the interviewer with something like,

You know my background, skills and experience as well as your needs and pay range; what compensation do you feel would be appropriate?

I hope you find it helpful
