Make Every Minute Count
By: Brian Tracy

Time management is the central skill of success. Your ability to manage your time, to focus and channel your energies on your highest value tasks, will determine your rewards and your level of accomplishment in life more than any other factor.

Save Hundreds of Hours and Thousands of Dollars in Personal Advancement
Your mind is your most precious asset. You must be continually working to increase the quality of your thinking. One of the best ways is to turn driving time into learning time. Listen to educational CDs or audio cassettes in your car. The average driver, according to the American Automobile Association, drives 12,000 to 25,000 miles each year, spending 500 to 1000 hours that you spend each year in your car. That is the equivalent of 12 1/2 to 25 forty-hour weeks. This is the same as two full university semesters spent behind the wheel of your car each year.

Use Traveling Time as Learning Time
If you did nothing but use that traveling time as learning time, this decision alone could make you one of the best educated people of your generation. Many people have gone from rags to riches simply by listening to audio programs as they drive to and from work.

Attend Every Seminar
In addition, for personal and professional development, you should attend every seminar you can. You can often save yourself 100′s of hours of reading and researching by attending a seminar given by an authority in his or her field. You can learn ideas, techniques and methods that can save you hours, days, even months of hard work and research on your own.

Increase Your Earnings
Remember, to earn more, you must learn more. Your outer world of results will always correspond to your inner world of preparation. Continuous learning is the minimum requirement for success in any field.

Action Exercises
Now, here are two things you can do to put these ideas to work in your life immediately.

First, purchase an audio program that can help you to be happier and more effective today. Begin listening to it immediately. Resolve never to listen to music in your car when you can turn driving time into learning time.

Second, seek out seminars and training programs given by experts in your field. Sit close to the front, take careful notes, and apply the best ideas that you learn immediately.

Want Some Inspiration

I was privileged to hear Giles Long MBE speak yesterday. Giles is a double Paralympic Gold Medallist in swimming  – butterfly and he can only use one arm. Man, butterfly is the hardest stroke with two arms. Giles lost the use of one shoulder aged 13 through illness but he came through it. Check out his website for more info http://www.gileslong.com/ .

Parents and coaches there is a good mssage here.  When Miles said to his parents and his coach “I am going to be an Olympic Gold Medallist”  their response was not negative it was “How are you going to do that then?”

Home Business Foundations

If you want to build a very tall building you need to have some good foundations, you have to prepare the site.

If you look at the London 2012 Olympic site they have been working on it for several years but nothing seemed to be happening. They were preparing the ground, laying the foundations and getting ready. Now if you look on the 2012 website you can see the buildings and stadiums taking shape. Well a home business is the same you need to prepare your the ground for your home business.

If you are going to work on the internet you need to find your niche. So get on to the keyword tools on Google and find a niche. Find the key words that are searched. Then try to incorporate your key words into your domain name. A big tip is to try to go for a narrow specific niche so that when people find your site they are ready to buy.

Use the google key word tool  https://adwords.google.co.uk/select/KeywordToolExternal  to help your research. Alternatively typ Keyword tool into the Google/yahoo/etc search bar.

If you need a domain name try 1&1 I have found them very helpful – it is a great experience talking to a help line where the person on the other end actually knows what they are talking about and doesn’t just follow a script.

Hide Those Home Business Affiliate Links

One of the odd annoying habits some people have is that they like to remove affiliate details from your links. This can have a serious affect on your proftability and it means that you don’t get a chance to build your list and as many people will tell you your list is your business engine. There are many ways to cloak your links, some are quite complicated using code. The site on the banner below offers you a simple solution to the issue and allows you another route to make money as well.

1.6 Billion Potential On line Work from Home People

According to the site    http://www.internetworldstats.com/stats.htm the number of internet users in the world is spread as per the graph below. So over 40% of users are in Asia and nearly 25% in Europe. So in terms of numbers that is where your marketing efforts should be.

OK lets be realistic there are a large number of corporate websites in this lot but still there is a vast potential for business on line for us all.

Recipe For Success in Your On Line Business

I just read some very interesting stats., In the USA

99% of businesses started by inexperienced people fail, BUT…

80% of businesses started by experienced people succeed,  — so you know what you need to do if you are runnng a home based or on line business.

You need to make sure you are working with an experienced person and your chances are much, much higher of succeeding. This makes buying into an existing system a great idea. You should find someone who is already running a home based business or an on line business to work with.  Also you should pug into a “mastermind” group.this is a group of people who are already successful and can help you with your home income stream. So try linking in with an existing system such as our useful links to get help along the way.

Getting Noticed again in Your On Line Business

I forgot to mention on my last post that you can ping your blog. This means that you send notification to several sites automatically using something like pingoat or pingomatic (check out the squidoo lense free ping services).   You enter your url and press go and theservice does the rest. In theory then the search engines pick up traffic to your site and you move up the search page. Give it a go it can be very succesful.

Getting Your Home Based Business Noticed

What do you need to do to get noticed on the internet. This is an art all of its own and there are many many ways to get noticed. If you have a limited budget you can publish some articles at ezine articles or another article directory, just type article directory into your search engine to find one. Follow the rules and you will get your article published and you can have a link back to a blog or website. Be careful about affiliate links, they are frowned upon. This route will require a little bit of effort as you will have to research and then write an article. You can find out more about that on the Masters of the Internet Marketing course. The hardest thing is to get started, but the most important thing is to get started. Remember the old Chinese proverb

“A journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step”

So even if you have to rewrite an article several times write it and publish it.

An alternative is to pay for some adsense adverts – you know the kind of things you get on the side of some websites.These can be very effective but you need to know what you are doing to ensure you don’t lose money. Its no good soending $25 to sell $20 product. Go to www.Google.co.uk/Adsense to find out more.

Then of course there is the option of joining a traffick exchange such as traffick swarm which is free. The deal here is you have to click on links to gain credits. Your credits are used to direct people to your links. This can get some traffic but probably won’t get you a huge amount of business. It should certainly be considered as a strategy in the early part of a business.

The other thing to do is to make sure your website is something that people will search for so look for the keywords that are relevant to your niche and get them into your titles and tag lines.

Free Ebook Full of Resources

Are you earning all the money you want to? or do you want to learn about making a living. I recommend you check out Richard Wall’s Wall to Wall Potential. It will lead you towards a fantastic business opportunity but it allows you to download the “Residual Magic” ebook which is a very practical guide to what you need to build a business on line but most importantly contains masses and masses of links to resources that will help you to build an online business, and here is the best bit it is free. If you want you can bypass the business form and go straight to the ebook.

As well as all the resources the ebook also gives a good insight into MLM businesses. It is well worth a look and who knows you may discover there wall to wall potential in you (ha ha)

free traffic for Your On line Business

Ok there are many ways to get traffic to your website or on line business, some are better than others and some require more work than others. One way is to join a traffic exchange such as traffic swarm The way this works is that everytime you open your browser you earn a credit, then if you click a link you earn more credits. You exchange yourcredits for people being directed to your website. Simple yes, but it could slow you down a bit as you have to stay on the site you have clicked for a few seconds to register your credits. This is definitely something worth considering especially in the early days.
