Breaking The Habit Give Away Rights Ebook

Ebook Sample Content Preview:

In order to assure that you get the outcome you want and stay motivated and on track, it’s critical that you record your progress and review and refine your Game Plan as you progress through your program.

You mapped out your Game Plan from a safe distance before you got into the heat of the action. There probably were things that you didn’t anticipate happening. It’s okay to make changes. Your Game Plan is a guideline, not a rule book. As long as it gets you to where you want to go within the timeframe that you have planned for yourself, it can be adapted and modified as much or as little as you like.

Just make sure that your program is progressing towards your goal, not backsliding back into the bad habit you are trying to break.

A Record of Your Success

Keep a record of your performance versus your Game Plan. I like to call this the “Victory Log”. This will help you measure and see your progress as you move through your program. It also will help you put together your next Game Plan when you are ready to break another bad habit.

In your Victory Log, record your performance versus your objective. Identify shortcomings. Be honest and unflinching. The Victory Log is for your eyes only.

Ultimately, when you reach your objective, your Habit Diary and your Victory Log can help point to the key elements that led to your success. These key elements can then be applied to other areas of your life so that you can make constant, positive improvements and move closer to realizing your Vision Statement.

Weekly Progress Reviews

Schedule a time to review your success each week. Make it a new good habit by making it at the same time and day every week, making it easier to remember to do it. Eventually, you will start to look forward to this time because the closer you get to your objective, the more likely it will be that the news will be good.

Weekly progress reviews should be as non-judgmental as possible. Update your Victory Log without emotion, explaining exactly what you did well and what you didn’t. Any setback of failure should be accompanied by a plan of action to correct those areas where you need improvement. These can then be folded into the Game Plan for subsequent weeks.

Celebrating Victories

The little rewards you built into your Game Plan are important motivators, so don’t skip them. Even if they are simply trinkets or tokens, because you had to earn them they will take on deeply personal significance.

For example, people who are struggling with alcoholism and who embark on the 12-Step program are presented with chips that celebrate various stages of their sobriety. These cheap plastic chips are presented for 30-days, six-months, one-year and 10-years of sobriety. While these chips may not have any actual monetary value, for the people who earn them they are among their most valuable possessions.

When your Game Plan has been completed and you have achieved your overall objective, it’s time to celebrate. Invite loved ones to join you at a celebratory dinner or throw a party. Not only do you deserve it, but celebrating your achievement will reinforce your positive behavior and make it easier to repeat the process when it’s time to address other bad habits you want to correct.

CHAPTER 5

Why You Need Friends

There are people who think whether they really need all the friends they have. These are usually the people who have a lot of friends and feel that they need to be left alone sometimes. Or, they are introverts—people who do not like to mingle with other people much. But, is that really a good idea? Why do we need friends after all?

Since this eBook is about how you can win friends and influence people, it is a good idea to answer this... why does one need friends anyway? Why should we put in the effort to make friends and then make more effort to retain them? There are people who think in a businesslike manner about this. If they invest in making and retaining friends, what are they getting at the end of the day? Are the returns commensurate with the ‘investment’?

Let us simply look at the ways in which friends are useful to us.

Friends Are Our Emotional Support and Anchor

One of the greatest reasons why we want friends is because they support us emotionally. Outside our family, who do we go to if we are exceptionally happy or exceptionally sad? Whom do we want to tell if we are angry about something? Whom do we like to share our secrets with? It is with our friends. If you have friends, you will realize how important they are to your life.

Our friends know what we want; especially the ones who have spent a long time with us know exactly what reactions a particular thing can evoke in us. It is because of this reason that they can comfort us when we are despondent and celebrate with us when we are happy. They know what can cheer us up when we are feeling low and what can make us miserable.

We need that kind of support. We cannot live a lonely life. You may have understood that already if you have had to live alone somewhere in a new place. Or, if you have ever relocated, you will have felt what I am talking about. Despite of the fact that there are several people with us wherever we go, having just one friend can make things so much more easier.

Friends Are Our Company

We are social beings and for that reason we need to be with people all the time. However, strangers won’t do. We eventually try to make friends with strangers too—and that is the point of this eBook—but the truth is that if we have an already existing friend to help us through, it can make a lot of difference.

We need friends for being with us during all kinds of occasions. Even if it is a small thing, like company for going to a movie, we want our friends. If you are feeling lonely, what do you do? You simply call some friend up and hang out with them. This is how we are made. We feel comfortable with the people we have spent time with. This ties in with something I said earlier. we form habits in people. When we are with our friends, who have been with us for a long time, we have definitely formed some habits in them. They have formed some habits in us too. It is because of this reason that we like being with them. We feel comfortable and at ease when we are with our friends.

Friends Give Us Courage

A major part of our courage in life comes from the friends we have. Our friends are great people; they know us precisely well and for that reason they know how to encourage us.

True friends will stay with us through whatever we do. They will give us their support and help us by their physical contribution as well.

But, most importantly, by just being there they give us a lot of courage. We feel motivated to go on. When we are alone, it becomes very difficult to achieve things. But, with someone loyal to support us, things become very different. We are able to elevate our potential and reach greater heights of glory, just because someone was with us.

Most people who have become successful in life today have become so because they had people to support them already, or they influenced people enough so that they could support them in their efforts. In effect, these people already had good friends, or they made friends on the way. But, whichever way they went about it, the gist was that they needed to have friends. They understood the importance of having friends and stuck with them through.

Their friends proved to be a major contributor in their success.

Friends Help Us to Discover Ourselves

Outside the family, friends are the only people whom we can open out to. We do not mind speaking out our innermost thoughts to our friends. We tell them what irks us; we tell them what makes us happy. If there is something that has not gone down well with us, we can tell them. We can tell them of our lean times and our best times.

It is when we share so many things about us with our friends that we truly start to discover ourselves. When we are telling our friends things, subconsciously, these things are also playing in our minds. We are reinforcing our likes and dislikes, the lessons we have learnt, the emotions we feel, etc. We are telling us what we are like. By simply exchanging our thoughts with our friends, we get to know ourselves in a better way.

And that is how friends can help us in rediscovering ourselves. This gives us a powerful sense of self-expectancy and self-sufficiency. We know what we are about and we can play to our strengths. That is why, just by being with our friends and exchanging things with them, we can go a long way in our lives.

These are just a few of the most important reasons why we need friends. Speaking from experience, everyone has their own reasons for having friends. You will have your own reasons as well. Also, we have different reasons for needing friends at different stages of our life.

WordPress Security Guard PLR Ebook

Ebook Sample Content Preview:

Another mistake people commonly make is using the same login information for multiple blogs. If you have several different blogs, be sure to use different usernames and passwords for each so if one is compromised, your others can’t easily be attacked.

Remember, there are websites that will allow someone to see all of the other domains hosted on your server, so if your Wordpress installations all reside on the same hosting account, it’s easy for hackers to find your other blogs in order to target them.

Don't Use Usernames or Passwords from Other Sites

If you are a member of a forum, social network, etc., never, ever use one of those usernames or passwords as your blog username or password! If the forum or website gets hacked and user data stolen, your blog could be compromised! Use something different for every site you register with, including your own!

Limit Login Attempts

One very simple thing you can do to thwart brute force attacks is to limit login attempts. There are plugins available on the Wordpress website that will let you limit login attempts. Additionally, you can get the Whitelist IP plugin that will let you add your own IP addresses to a whitelist to ensure you don’t accidentally lock yourself out.

You may experience some minor frustration if you accidentally lock yourself out if you forget your password, but the extra security is worth the potential of frustration! If you use the whitelist plugin and add any IP addresses you might log in from, this isn’t likely to happen.

Amazon Marketplace Free Giveaway Report PLR Ebook

Like most business models, there have been plenty of people who have gone before you and failed. There are also people who have gone before you, made tons of mistakes and learned from them, eventually becoming huge successes. It's important that you try not to reinvent the wheel. Learn from people who have done it and succeeded hat new Marketplace sellers make. Let's go over a few.

Not Spending Money

How much you invest in your business is proportionate to how much you expect to earn in your business. If you only put up 10 low inventory products, you can’t expect to make six or seven figures. If you want to make that much, you need to invest proportionate to your desires. When you buy merchandise, know the retail value. If you want to make six figures, the retail value must be worth six figures.

Not Placing Value on Time

A lot of new business owners do not place any value on their own time. This is understandable because most business owners work for free for a lot of hours before turning a profit. People who don't understand their own value will often forgo the idea of using fulfillment services because they think the fees are too high. But what is your time worth? You only have so many hours in the day to invest in your business. But, you also likely have a family and a life outside of your business. With strategic outsourcing, you can make the most of your time while increasing your profit potential.

Starting Without a Clear Plan

Every business owner needs to start their business with a plan. Business plans aren't something that only corporations make. A business plan is essential to your success. It will help you determine what type of products you want to sell, how you'll price your items, how many you need to sell to earn the kind of money you want to earn. Without the plan, you're just starting another hobby. With a plan, you're starting a real business with real profit potential.

Pricing Items Incorrectly

If you price items too low, you will lose money. If you price items too high, you will also lose money. The worst offender is pricing products too low. You make a sale, and think you're successful, but once the books are reconciled you realize you're losing money. No one wants that, right? Keep in mind selling fees, per order fees, shipping costs and other costs that affect your profit potential as you price your items.

Describing Items Inaccurately

Amazon Marketplace has a feature that allows you to enter a UPC code of an item, or an ISBN number for books to automatically list an item without having to put in a separate description of each item. You want to use this feature, but check it to be certain it is right. Sometimes data entry errors happen but other times the number has changed and it brings up a different product entirely. This can be a customer service nightmare and play havoc on your seller rating. So pay close attention.

Mismanaging Inventory

If you choose to sell items at more than one marketplace, it's imperative that you keep track of your inventory. If you are only selling through Amazon Marketplace, it will be easier for you to keep track of inventory. A good way to do this, if you sell at more than one marketplace, is to allocate a set number to each outlet, such as 12 items for Amazon Marketplace, 12 for eBay and so forth. That way you won't have to disappoint someone who ordered because you didn't realize you were out of product.

Hanging Out Personal Use Ebook

Ebook Sample Content Preview:

On this occasion National Geographic decided to host a live Google Hangout. By using a little creativity they invited guests to their event. What they did was invite people from all 7 continents so each one was represented. This did two things 1) it gave them the potential to increase their reach around the world and 2) it showcased just what a little creative planning can do.

Obviously this was a long event and ran over an hour. The producers at National Geographic edited the replay version so it was only 15 minutes long and showcased the highlights of the event. More people are likely to view the 15 minute version than the full one hour. The editing removed any slow moments or lulls in the broadcast so the end product was a lively broadcast.

Hangout Interview Series from Jason Matthews

Jason Matthews is an indie author who conducts interviews via Hangouts. His YouTube channel is extremely popular today. Jason regularly interviews various people in the book publishing world. His interviews last anywhere from 15 to 30 minutes and he airs his show on a weekly basis. He often holds tutorial type Hangouts with live guests asking questions. Plus all of these videos can be found on YouTube for years to come providing a source of new lead generation.

Sponsored Hangouts

At the time of writing there are no advertisements on Google+ Hangouts, but if you are creative you can look into making money while hosting one. Case study in question is for Glamour magazine.

What the folks at Glamour magazine did was to launch a weeklong series of Hangouts. Each session involved chatting with celebrities and readers from their magazine. During the Hangout products were featured from sponsors such as Pantene and L’Oreal. See if there is a brand that you might be able to team up with to create some additional revenue.

This method has potential once you start attracting a large audience to your Hangouts.

New York Times

The New York Times decided to host Hangouts which featured Olympic athletes in 2012. They allowed their readers to submit questions to be asked to each athlete during the live event. This helped engage viewers to be active during the event and has proved to be a valuable resource for the paper. They have been able to create loyal followers by providing regular interactive Hangouts. Plus they embed the video into their website for those who couldn’t attend the live event.

Cadbury

Cadbury spends a lot of time and energy of their marketing and they make great use of their Google+ account. They have hosted lots of Hangouts and had one that reached 500,000 followers. In another Hangout they allowed participants to ask questions to Rebecca Adlington, an Olympic Swimmer.

Cadbury also created a Hangout called Tasters Circle where invited members were allowed to chat with a Cadbury product developer. They were asked to give insights and opinions on their own preferences for chocolate and got to taste samples all during a live event.

BakeSpace

BakeSpace is a Los Angeles based digital publishing platform for cooks. This company is known as a Google+ success story. They now have over 360,000 people in their Circles on their Google+ page. In Facebook they only have 14,000 Likes on their page.

The founder of BakeSpace says that she got fed up with paying for advertising on Facebook and it was difficult to try and constantly figure out their News Feed algorithm. The company has also been featured as a suggestion in Google Plus’s Food and Drink Section.

Amazon Hair Loss Essentials Resale Rights Ebook

Ebook Sample Content Preview:

When it comes to hair loss, there are many factors that come into play, and there are many reasons that some people lose their hair and some do not. When it comes to general hair loss, most of it is caused by male pattern baldness. This is a cause for about 95 percent of all hair loss in men. Male pattern baldness happens to about half of the men in the world before they are 50. You’ll need to decide if you want to treat the hair loss or learn to live with it.

What is known about hair loss is several different ideas and several different factors that happen to work together to cause you to lose more hair than you ever thought that you would. Most of the scientists agree that in order to have male pattern baldness you have to have some sort of hair loss that is inherited from either side of your family, and that you also must have dealings with a certain chemical, which is found in your body, called dihydrotestosterone, which is also called DHT.

The DHT is a substance that will shrink the hair follicle. When this happens, you will find that the follicle gets too small to produce any hair, and therefore you are going to lose your hair. Once the hairs that you have die, which usually happens anyway after a few years, there are going to be no hairs to replace them, because the DHT has shrunken your follicles.

If you believe that your hair loss might be caused by DHT, and you probably have a good reason to believe so, you are going to have to make a few decisions. The best thing to do is to talk to your doctor to make sure that you are making the right decisions for yourself and for your particular brand of hair loss. The best thing that you can do, in situations like this, is to get your doctor’s advice, because there are many things that can be done about hair loss. You can have surgery, take pills, use certain shampoos, or simply let yourself be bald. No matter what you decide, it is most important that you do something so that you are comfortable with who you are and how you look. As long as that is true, then it doesn’t matter how much hair you have. So, in the end, your biggest decision is going to be how much hair you can stand to lose, and how much you need in order to be the person that you are. Oil Slick! - Dealing with Oily Hair

When it comes to hair loss, there are many different explanations. There have been several different studies that have been done, all over the world when it comes to hair loss, and many of these studies have found that there might be different cures and that there might be different causes to the same thing, the loss of hair.

One of these ideas might be that hair loss, in both men and women, is caused by an excessive amount of oil on the person’s scalp. There is oil, which is called sebum, and it might cause the pores on the top of the head to become clogged. When this happens, it will stifle the growth in the follicles. If it goes on for long enough, the hair root itself is going to die, and no new hair will ever grow there.

This might explain, in this study, why more men than women lose their hair. Because the follicles grow on the top of a man’s head, when he does not have long hair, the oils will slip back to his scalp, and therefore will clog the pores. Because a woman has longer hair, generally, the oils can slip to the ends of her hair, and will therefore not clog the pores in the scalp.

If this is indeed the cause of your own hair loss, the best way for you to make sure it doesn’t happen more is to make sure that you clean your scalp properly. Remember that the oil will become wax if it isn’t cleaned properly, and it will then clog your pores. If your pores are clogged, when you lose a hair, the hair that is supposed to come out of the follicle after it will not be able to come out. If this happens for a long time, the hair will die and no more will replace it.

There are several things that you can do if this is the case. You can try to use treatments or shampoos that fight the oils in your scalp and help to get them out of your pores. By making sure that you are cleaning your hair properly, you can help to alleviate some of the oils and get rid of them before they turn to wax and prohibit the growth of your hair. Remember that this is only one potential cause for hair loss, and should be considered as such.

The affordability of one just depends on your pocketbook or wallet. You can always start out on one that doesn’t have all of the bell and whistles and move up to what you want. So don’t be intimidated or discouraged on price.

The construction of Nordic treadmills as compared to other companies is seen in their extra goodies in the upper and mid priced machines. One of the best features is that their treadmills are iFit compatible. You can join iFit and get a lot of good things from it to keep you in shape. It’s a virtual personal trainer at the tip of your finger from your home computer.

Some treadmills of Nordic don’t offer this option, so make sure to look into getting it, if you can afford it. Its benefit is that your jog, walk or full run will be cushioned so your joints and muscles won’t be damaged. It’s a nice cushioned ride, but the design allows for the energy to be transferred back so you can stride easily on the treadmill.

Warranties that are standard for Nordic Track will cover the motor for up to 3 years, and your frame and other moving parts for two. You won’t have to pay for any labor for one year. Some models now have a warranty for the motor for a lifetime.

You can always get a great deal from the on sale treadmills at their website and at the same time know the Nordic company does make quality differences in their exercise equipment.

It can’t be stressed enough how important it is to let as many people know about your book via word of mouth. You just never know how its influence can affect your work immensely. Let your family and friends know all about it via a well written email! They have contacts that they can send the email to and a snowball effect can happen.

Business Contacts and Professional Groups

It’s a good idea to converse with your professional associates and co-workers when it’s fitting to do so; a great idea is to throw a festival to rejoice in the introduction of your Kindle work. Invite workers to the party who have a matching interest to your work’s topic. Think about visiting conferences with your work’s industry alliances.

Take a couple of tangible copies of your book or a paper ad for your Kindle version to give out to people. Keep in mind that you should be very cautious about how you approach this kind of advertising while conversing with people. You should NOT be very pushy and force your work on anyone; it’s considered unprofessional and this act could backfire and give you a horrible reputation—think of it like a website being designated as spam.

The key is to time when and how to act, i.e. if you trade contact information with an editor or publisher, be sure to contact them again in a suitable amount of time and write a sophisticated kind of letter that reminds them of your meeting so you can make sure they remember the correct person. Visit a few conferences if possible. Be vigilant in your networking and learning more data.

You may also get more involved by volunteering in some conferences; you can assist in planning one or put on your creative thinking caps and participate in some other form for a professional society. By doing this, you will get “brownie points” and not be ignored for your efforts, thus helping your reputation.

If you’re timid, you are going to have to realize that you have to put yourself out there. Think of it like acting. Practice acting to help ease into the process. It may help you out first to start assisting with things that need it at first to ease yourself into it. Speak to people and trade business cards when the chance happens.
