"What Really Makes You Tick?" 10 questions you should ask to yourself: a preparation to self-improvement

"What Really Makes You Tick?" 10 questions you should ask to yourself: a preparation to self-improvement


Be all you can be, but it's not always in the Army. I often see myself as somewhat contented with my life the way things are, but of course it's hard to think of anything else when there are real issues to be discussed.



Still I aspire for something deeper and more meaningful.



So we're all pelted with problems. Honestly it shouldn't even bother or even hinder us to becoming all we ought to be. Aspirations as kids should continue to live within us, even though it would be short-lived or as long as we could hold on to the dream. They say you can't teach an old dog new tricks… or can they?



1. What do I really want?

The question of the ages. So many things you want to do with your life and so little time to even go about during the day.



Find something that you are good at can help realize that small step towards improvement. Diligence is the key to know that it is worth it.



2. Should I really change?

Today's generation has taken another level of redefining 'self', or at least that's what the kids are saying. Having an army of teenage nieces and nephews has taught me that there are far worse things that they could have had than acne or maybe even promiscuity. So how does that fit into your lifestyle?



If history has taught us one thing, it's the life that we have gone through. Try to see if partying Seventies style wouldn't appeal to the younger generation, but dancing is part of partying. Watch them applaud after showing them how to really dance than break their bones in break-dancing.



3. What's the bright side in all of this?

With so much  happening around us there seems to be no room for even considering that light at the end of the tunnel. We can still see it as something positive without undergoing so much scrutiny. And if it's a train at the end of the tunnel, take it for a ride and see what makes the world go round!



4. Am I comfortable with what I'm doing?

There's always the easy way and the right way when it comes to deciding what goes with which shoes, or purse, shirt and whatnot. It doesn't take a genius to see yourself as someone unique, or else we'll all be equally the same in everything we do. Variety brings in very interesting and exciting questions to be experimented.



5. Have I done enough for myself?

Have you, or is there something more you want to do? Discontentment in every aspect can be dangerous in large doses, but in small amounts you'll be able to see and do stuff you could never imagine doing.



6. Am I happy at where I am today?

It's an unfair question so let it be an answer! You love being a good and loving mom or dad to your kids, then take it up a notch! Your kids will love you forever. The same goes with everyday life!



7. Am I appealing to the opposite sex?

So maybe I don't have an answer to that, but that doesn't mean I can't try it, though. Whether you shape-up, change the way you wear your clothes or hair, or even your attitude towards people, you should always remember it will always be for your own benefit.



8. How much could I have?

I suppose in this case there is no such things on having things too much or too little, but it's more on how badly you really need it. I'd like to have lots of money, no denying that, but the question is that how much are you willing to work for it?



9. What motivates me?

What motivates you? It's an answer you have to find out for yourself. There are so many things that can make everyone happy, but to choose one may be the hardest part. It's not like you can't have one serving of your favorite food in a buffet and that's it. Just try it piece by piece.



10. What Really Makes You Tick?

So? What really makes you tick? You can be just about anything you always wanted to be, but to realize that attaining something that may seem very difficult is already giving up before you even start that journey. Always remember, that self-improvement is not just about the physical or philosophical change you have to undergo, but it's something that you really want.

:Don't wait! "Perpetual Traffic" is Open Now

The sooner you see this the better:
https://touchstone.infusionsoft.com/go/ptf/a20187

Ryan’s reports and software have taught us all these FACTS:

1. Free Traffic RULES and is easier to get than ever.
Because of Googles new “Caffeine” update, the little
guy really has a shot again.

2. Paid traffic is harder than free and it’s dwindling.
Even Google admits that, at least 15% a year and
dropping fast.

3. There is a proven system for getting all the free
traffic you want and once you know that formula you
will be firmly in control.

And now you can get first-hand coaching directly from
the man who created the system!

But Ryan has VERY limited space available, so watch
this now and move quickly.

The Story Behind the Dash…

The Story Behind the Dash…

The words have changed attitudes, and changed the direction of lives. They have, in their own way, made a difference. I know writing The Dash has changed my life. I hope reading it, in some way, may change yours.

AMAZING! stop selling.

Let me revolutionise your ideas about selling on the Net.




Suppose you stopped trying to 'sell' things.



In other words instead of telling visitors at your blog or

website or subscribers on your mailing list about the

latest wonder product you instead told them about



* some excellent free resources



* a free ClickBank affiliate program which paid recurring commission





I'm sure they would be delighted, however apart from

goodwill what would YOU gain by this ?



After all



* free resources won't earn you anything



* ClickBank is a one-tier affiliate system which means you

earn nothing from recommending a program to other

affiliates.



Correct ?



Wrong.



It can be done.



Take a look here, in particular the line saying it uses

ClickBank but it does something that ClickBank can't do.

PS How about this. You can copy everything I've written

here, with the obvious change to the 'r value to use your

own id, and give it out to your visitors and readers -

including this very sentence !!

How long can you hold a cup of water? (Part 2)by Matt

Here’s part 2 of the story. Again, if you know the lecturer, share his or her name with us in the comment section! Enjoy these tips on how to deal with stress:

And then he shared some ways of dealing with the burdens of life:

1. Accept that some days you’re the pigeon, and some days you’re the statue.
2. Always keep your words soft and sweet, just in case you have to eat them.
3. Always read stuff that will make you look good if you die in the middle of it.
4. Drive carefully. It’s not only cars that can be recalled by their maker.
5. If you can’t be kind, at least have the decency to be vague.
6. If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.
7. It may be that your sole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others.
8. Never buy a car you can’t push.
9. Never put both feet in your mouth at the same time, because then you won’t have a leg to stand on.
10. Nobody cares if you can’t dance well. Just get up and dance.
11. Since it’s the early worm that gets eaten by the bird, sleep late.
12. The second mouse gets the cheese.
13. When everything’s coming your way, you’re in the wrong lane.
14. Birthdays are good for you. The more you have, the longer you live.
15. You may be only one person in the world, but you may also be the world to one person.
16. Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.
17. We could learn a lot from crayons. Some are sharp, some are pretty and some are dull. Some have weird names, and all are different colors, but they all have to live in the same box.
18. A truly happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery on a detour.

A Few Must Know Self Defense Points For Ladies

Over the past few years, attacks on girls and other woman centric crimes have been on a constant rise. In that kind of circumstance, it is recommended that females arm themselves with as many self protection measures as possible. Here we look at a few self defense ideas especially built to protect women.

When you talk of self protection points, the 1st thing that you need to keep in mind is sense of awareness. In case you are not alert 'n aware enough, it’s hard to avoid tricky situations. In reality being alert can help you prevent difficult conditions to come out in the1st place. If you stay distracted for most of the times to the happenings around, you're very likely to become an easy target for attackers. It is suggested to pay interest to the fast events around. Additionally, ensure that you do not try to multitask and rather concentrate on one work at hand.

Try not to go alone, particularly during odd hours. It may not be likely for you to have a person around when you are going out. But whenever possible, ensure that you've a person to go with you. Even if you are going out with a feminine friend, you'll have sense of security. Besides, criminals rarely assault girls in groups. So, have some company when you go out. After all, it is far better to be risk-free than sorry.

Considering the fast moving lives of today 'n the kind of work strain all of us are dealing with, it is kind of clear you as well have an erratic work life. This might need you to travel late even during the odd hours. However, in the event you want to keep accidents away, it is advised to avoid going out in the bizarre hours. It has been discovered that majority of the crimes chance during the night time. So it is in your interest to get over with all the outdoor chores well on time.

Yet another tip of perfect aid is always to use self defense solutions. The market is flooded with numerous self defense items such as pepper sprays, stun guns 'n plenty of more. Using these things could keep you well equipped to battle any attack effortlessly. Just carrying such items along won't prove to be of much assist. It is just as crucial to realize their correct functioning as well. Knowing the right approach will help you utilize these products and solutions effortlessly. In this way you'll not have to fight to apply them in the critical moment.

Last but not the least, join a self defense course. It's the sure shot means to battle away tricky instances. These courses usually attempt to teach you various self protection methods 'n mechanisms. In case you do not have time to join a genuine self protection span, you may buy a number of DVDs of the same as well. This will help you learn all the tricks in no time.

Using these already mentioned ideas with a well thought out method to take on attackers will help you stay away from any untoward circumstances and additionally protect you from becoming a smooth target for criminals.

The Virtual Peddler: Learn how to make a living buying, selling and trading on eBay, Amazon and Craigslist

Times are tough! And, when times are tough –the tough get creative.

That is what The Virtual Peddler is all about. Everyone needs to make some money in this economy.

If you are out of work, then you need to make a lot of money –at least enough to live on. If you are still working and are like most of us, you could use some extra money.

Over the years I have written over a dozen books about selling on eBay, Amazon and the Internet. But all of them have focused mostly on selling new products. And that is where the problem lies for most people.

It takes money and risk to buy and sell new products…and these days money is tight.

Lots of sellers, including me, make good money selling new products –but the profits get squeezed year after year...
