    Tags: , , , , , success

    The recently released, Slumdog Millionaire was to prove the most popular film on the night at the 2009 Oscar Awards. Slumdog Millionaire tells the story of Jamal Malik, a young boy from the slums who takes a seat in the spotlight of the Hindi version of Who Wants to be a Millionaire and wins. His story backtracks to show us how and why he came to be sitting in the famous hot seat - but more importantly how he appears to know all the answers to every question. Filmed on location in beautiful India, viewers are gifted with an insight into the sad reality of the slums which contrasts sharply with the exotic, exciting portrayal of other spectacular locations in and around Mumbai and Agra. It is a film packed with emotion that will have you laughing, crying and most importantly, gaining a more in-depth perspective of life in India. Slumdog Millionaire is a film that manages to educate viewers on the sights and sounds of this glorious country - and the success of the film is inspiring more and more holiday makers to try a slice of Indian life. Indeed, many will have now experienced what India has to offer thanks to the big screen; however, an escorted tour is the best way to see the sights of India and with a knowledgeable guide you will be in for a truly eye-opening experience. Such tours can offer to take you through Delhi, Jaipur and Agra - with opportunities to extend your tour and visit Goa, Sri Lanka or Ranthambore. Visit mesmerising Old Delhi with its narrow streets and colourful bazaars, before moving on to the imperial architectural masterpiece of Lutyen’s New Delhi. Then move onto Jaipur, also known as the pink city; receiving its name from a pink paint job the locals performed on their houses and stores to welcome the Prince of Wales in 1853, which gives the town a calm and relaxed feel. En route, why not visit the perfectly preserved deserted Mughal city of Fatehpur Sikri or get lost in the magic of Bollywood at the Raj Mandir cinema - both of which provide an opportunity to further experience what the local culture has to offer. Agra is most famed for the Taj Mahal - a tribute built by 20,000 labourers for Shah Jahan to honour his wife, Mumtaz. The cool marble and clear symmetry are justifiably a masterpiece of the modern world. In fact, it may prove beneficial to have a professional photographer on hand, to make sure you get amazing shots of this awe-inspiring icon. If you choose to extend your India holidays, then visiting Ranthambore National Park is a major example of Project Tiger’s conservation plans in Rajasthan. Here you will be treated to three games drives in open-top vehicles to see these magnificent creatures, which is just another example of the many iconic images of India you can expect to experience.

     
  • Three Secrets to Marketing Success - #2 Brand Yourself and Ditch the Pitch

    The Truth 12:56 pm on March 12, 2010 | 0 Permalink | Reply
    Tags: , , , , , success, ,

    Branding on the Internet means you attract customers that want what you have. Listen again. You attract customers who want what YOU have, not what you want to sell. Aggressive selling is a thing of the past. Smart marketers no longer chase after and try to convince people to buy their products.

    A tiny percentage of people make sales this way, but if you’re like most marketers, you’ll find that your so-called “warm market” (friends, family and co-workers) turns cold as a cucumber as soon as you start your sales pitch. So ditch the pitch. There are better ways to attract customers to your business.

    When it comes to branding, most top marketers are currently using “Attraction Marketing” as the platform for their business campaigns because it allows them to be unique. Or, as stated earlier, they brand themselves by developing a reputation as an industry leader, thereby standing out from the crowd, and being more visible. The best part about branding yourself is that you get to be just that — “Yourself.” This poses advantages and also challenges, but in the end, you are in charge of your destiny, and that’s a great thing since you can set your own income.

    Now if you don’t know what Attraction Marketing is, it all began with Mike Dillard’s series of MLM workbooks that tell you everything you need to know about branding yourself, and how much more powerful you will be as a marketer when you become “the sought after” instead of “the seeker.” (I suggest getting a copy of “Magnetic Sponsoring” if you don’t own one already. http://betsys.magneticsponsoringonline.com)

    It may seem like the long route to the top of the mountain, but it really isn’t. The best way to work with the kind of people you’d like to work with, and to be secure in your position as a leader and top earner is to become branded. Then you have the power to take people with you where ever you go. Better yet, they’ll choose to follow you, even if you move to another company. Once you establish yourself as a leader, those looking for help with their network marketing businesses will find you.

    When your business skills become valuable, people flock to you like bees to honey. That, of course, will require that you develop lots of know how, and then learn to offer your knowledge to others. My recommendation is to start out with your strengths and build on them. (If you haven’t identified your strengths, get a copy of What Color is Your Parachute by Nelson Bolles, and be sure to do the chapter on “transferable skills.”)

    Becoming a recognizable brand doesn’t happen overnight, but if you plan on making serious money in network marketing, it’s the best way to go (Some would say the only way to go!) because it’s based on value. That is, your knowledge and expertise is what attracts prospects to your business much more effectively than what your products or compensation plan has to offer. Companies are a dime a dozen, but a focused, savvy business trainer with insight and wisdom (That would be you!) is like finding a pot of gold.

    In essence, YOU become the product that is sought after. Sound complicated? It’s not as hard as you might think. Becoming “You.Inc” is really your best security in the field of network marketing. You will always have a business, because your business will follow your reputation. The good news is that whatever your strengths and skills may be, with the right tactics, you can become well known very rapidly.

    Consider, for instance, the rise in popularity of our current President, Barak Obama. He was virtually unknown a couple of years ago. Then he used the same tactics used by attraction marketers to gain a following. These are some of the ways he branded himself:

    1. He focused on the individual by publishing two books so people would know who he is personally. (You can do this by writing articles, publishing a blog and writing on public forums. or posting videos)

    2. He identified himself with Change, (he chose his strength) and remained true to his “branding” throughout his campaign. (This one’s up to you!) Find a way to stand out in the crowd.

    3. He made tons of personal appearances, first book signings, then campaigning, and had his family in tow. (You can do this by, or posting pictures or videos with comments on Facebook and MySpace.)

    It has been noted that Obama’s consistency of character (branding) was a key factor in his victory. But I hope you noticed that during his acceptance speech, Obama gave his cracker-jack campaign manager the credit for masterminding the perfect political campaign. Gee, I wonder where he learned how to do that?

    What’s the shortest route to the top? Always seek to learn from the best and you, in turn, will become a leader worthy of being followed.

  • GPS Charts Course For Success

    The Truth 6:34 am on March 12, 2010 | 0 Permalink | Reply
    Tags: , , success

    GPS systems have become increasingly popular, portable and affordable. Sales for this small navigation system are off the charts, and they are the hottest ticket at every electronics store and big box retailer around.
    So what is GPS exactly, how does it work, and why is it so popular? What other uses are there for technology? For the answers to this and more, keep reading.
    What is GPS?
    GPS is an abbreviation for Global Positioning System. This technology was developed by the US Department of Defense, and employs a network of 24 strategically placed satellites around the globe. It was originally intended for military use only, but the government made it available for anyone to use in the 1980s. That coupled with latest advances in portable technology has made GPS the new hot item. It is extremely popular with those who drive for a living, such as couriers.
    How Does it Work?
    A GPS receiver uses signals transmitted by these GPS satellites to triangulate exact locations. The 24 satellites circle the planet twice a day and transmit signals to the earth, which are what the receivers use. The receivers basically use the difference between the time a signal was transmitted and received to calculate how far away the satellite is.
    In order to track movement as well as calculate an object’s latitude and longitude, a GPS receiver has to get signals from at least three satellites. If you add one more satellite to the mix, you can track altitude as well. One the receiver has the location, other variables can be accounted for such as speed, distance to destination, and more.
    New advances in GPS technology such as Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) and Differential GPS (DGPS) have made it possible to get accuracy down to within three meters of a signal. While WAAS is widely available in newer GPS systems, DGPS requires additional equipment and is mostly used in marine systems and by the US Coast Guard.
    Popular Uses for GPS
    The most common application for GPS is in small receivers that can be mounted in your car or carried by hand. These compact devices are usually used for directions, and include speakers that give turn by turn spoken directions to avoid being distracted by looking at a tiny map. But GPS users are discovering new uses for the technology daily.
    One of the first widespread uses of GPS before the handheld was the Lo-Jack. This was a chip implanted in a vehicle that police stations could use to locate stolen vehicles. The Lo-Jack became the inspiration for locating other objects, especially living ones.
    GPS collars have become popular for wandering pets. So when little Spot or Fluffy can’t be found, you can simply use a GPS signal to find them. Missing children can be found with a popular cell phone software that uses the GPS signal to locate them.
    The new handheld revolution owes a lot of its success to the iPod. This popular portable music player spawned the invention of parallel hard-drive technology, which allows you to double the disk space of a hard drive without increasing the physical dimensions.
    So as you can see, the GPS has a lot a reasons for its recent success. And with a sharp and steady increase in sales, the technology has become a lot more popular and affordable than before. You can buy a inexpensive receiver with a major name brand starting at about $150.

    Des Smalls. owns a number of websites. They carry wide selection of Garmin GPS, GPS systems, GPS navigation and Tom Tom GPS they offer the most popular gps navigation equipment for cars and mobile devices as well as computers for everyone.

  • The 6th Lost Rule of Network Marketing Success

    The Truth 8:14 pm on March 11, 2010 | 0 Permalink | Reply
    Tags: , , , , success

    If you have not already experienced the infamous emotional roller coaster of network marketing, you will sooner or later and we are going to advise you how to handle it.
    Don’t be a drama queen! Seriously…
    Let’s step into the world of Bob Networker for a moment, shall we?
    Bob is ecstatic and he should be, he just got started with one of the fastest growing network marketing companies on the planet. Bob just got his business kit, he has a group of wonderful and supportive upline leaders, he has his list squared away, and he is ready to have his first meeting. Bob is so excited that he does not take time to evaluate why he joined the business; he just knows he’s going to make a lot of money!
    Bob talks to over 85 people his first week in the business. He gets 43 confirmed to come over to a home meeting where the top regional director in his area is coming to present. Bob is jumping off the walls. He goes to the store, buys refreshments, rearranges his furniture, cleans his house, puts the dogs out and sets up his home PERFECTLY for his guest speaker.
    When the meeting begins only 9 people have shown up from the 43 confirmed, and afterwards, 4 people sign up in the business. When everyone leaves Bob begins to get very upset. “I called 85 people, I did all the right things, and I even gave them refreshments, and only 4 people signed up. This business is really tough!”
    The following day one of his friends who he signed up calls him up, and says he will have to cancel because he has too many current commitments. Bob then gets even more frustrated than before, and calls his upline for support. His upline calms him down, and is able to get energy and hope restored.
    Later Joe who also signed up, calls and he tells Bob he has 20 people coming to the regional business meeting tomorrow night. Bob shrugs off the other stuff, and jumps for joy…”We are going to be rich!” Bob goes out that night and buys a new suit for the meeting. When he arrives the following night at the meeting, none of his new distributors show up and neither do any of their prospects.
    At this point Bob starts to get full of angst and begins to wonder if this business really is for him. That week Bob gets very committed and works on customer acquisition, and is able to do an incredible job. Customers are acquired, and his hope is fully restored!
    Not a moment later his upline Jerry calls his cell phone. Jerry informs Bob that there is a leadership call at 7:30 and he ought to be on because the Vice President of Sales has an important message. Bob dials up to hear what the fuss is all about.
    The VP of Sales delivers a powerful message and shares an increase in the comp plan. After the call, Bob’s confidence is now fully redeemed. Due to his new excitement he decides to make a few calls, one of the phone calls is to a former boss. Bob follows the company system and the following week Bob’s former boss gets started and brings in half of his staff. A few days later each of his staff brings in a few friends. Before he knows it Bob has 65 people in his downline each with a few customers. The next month Bob receives a check for $3,000.
    “Maybe this does work”, Bob thinks as he cashes his first check.
    The following week Bob’s former boss (his most influential downline leader) decides to put more time into his other company and quits the business. This causes 75% of Bob’s team to also quit.
    Bob struggles with his emotions once again, but this time he also quits the business.
    The moral of the story is: you will have similar experiences as Bob, but you do not have to react the way Bob did. The fact is, you are going to have struggles and you are going to have successes, most of which you may have no control over.
    What you do have control over is the way you react to your successes and struggles and what you do everyday to better yourself. You can make the most out of your struggles by looking at them as learning experiences. Celebrate your successes, but don’t get over zealous and gloat. The key to this business is to stay even keel. Remember that not everyone will be in this for the long term like you, and remember that not everyone does what they say they are going to do.
    Teaching people to prepare for the unavoidable emotional experiences is important but challenging because who wants to scare their downline or slow down momentum? One great way to do it is through paying games. While playing MLM The Game everyone will experience the emotional roller coaster, you may lose 10 business partners one day, or your entire list with all your new prospects may be lost! In the game it is fun, it is real in life, click here to buy MLM The Game today.
    Your perceptions of your everyday moments are creating your reality. The Law of Attraction is not a “New Age Myth”, but a real timeless principle governed by the most powerful forces of life. Every thought, emotion, and word that comes from you projects outward into the world to attract something similar. Whether it is negative or positive, intentional or by accident makes no difference. Your are consistently communicating with the world around you. What we are talking about here is being conscious of your communication with yourself and the world - and project only that which you wish to come to fruition.
    Begin to experience positive situations with tremendous gratitude and appreciation, and adversities as learning experiences and blessings.
    “One cannot get through life without pain…what we can do is choose how to use the pain life presents to us.”
    - Bernie Siegel
    Every good thing that will happen to you in your business will help make you money, and every negative event that will happen will make you stronger. Don’t get too excited, and don’t get upset. Don’t let your emotions run your life. The end goal, YOUR WHY, is worth the battle you sometimes will need to muscle through. The strength and clarity of your Why will ultimately be the deciding factor in the scale of your success.

     
  • Seminars: Your Bullet Train To Success

    The Truth 6:46 pm on March 11, 2010 | 0 Permalink | Reply
    Tags: , Seminars, success,

    I am incredibly grateful for those of you that have attracted this article into your lives and I don’t say that to sound ridiculous. In a seminar I still listen to almost each day Jack Canfield talks about how the people listening to or attending that seminar had attracted that experience into their lives and how they would look back someday and remember that seminar as the start of many years of success and abundance. For some of you reading this today it’s that same case. Some will finish this article and chose other avenues to their success that will work very well. They will buy books, watch DVD’s and listen to audio series that will equip them for success. But a few, maybe just one, will read this and take the plunge. They will spend a few thousand on a seminar or a weekend by Jack Canfield or Dr. Demartini and when they come back from that experience will find themselves uniquely equipped to achieve their goals faster and easier.

    Now I say again that books, DVD’s and audio series are all great ways to do this same thing, the only difference is that speed at which it happens. People often talk about life changing experiences launching them into a level of success they thought impossible and these seminars are organized to be just that. It’s hard to think that one event can change everything drastically and put you on the express train to fulfillment but thousands of successful past seminar attendees beg to differ.

    Seminars today are a whole incredible experience. You’ll not only be sitting down writing in a workbook, getting info that can be found in any and all self-improvement books. The seminars I’m talking about are much much more than that. Exercises, demonstrations, humor and excitement show up in spades here. When you enter the room you’ll enter apprehensively, just like everyone else going for the first time. When you leave you’ll be a charged, motivated and changed person. And even though sustaining that change will take further work, you’ll be equipped for that work with free merchandise from most of these events and a slew of techniques that have been proven to turn people’s lives from ordinary to extraordinary.

    Some people are meant to read their way to greatness. Still others are meant to listen or watch the inspirational material that will lead the way to their success. But a few will choose to experience it first hand. A few will choose to take the financial plunge and step inside the bullet train to success.  And to those of you in that category I applaud your bravery.

    If you think you may be that person, if you feel your intuition screaming at you but still find your brain fighting you, pointing out financial issues or doubts about the real effect these seminars might have then I encourage you to take a preliminary step first. Purchase one of Les Brown or Bob Proctor’s seminars on DVD and experience it from home. Although it won’t be the same, nothing compares to the tangible energy in a room full of driven and determined people, if you allow yourself  to you’ll feel a piece of that energy. Go to a secluded room or wait for the house or apartment to be empty, immerse yourself in that experience and let it put your fears to rest. When the DVD comes to a close you’ll know. It may be that those DVD’s are enough, that they get you motivated enough. But if you still feel yourself wanting to experience the real thing then at that point you’ll know for sure and will be much more comfortable with that decision.

    Greatness is within reach for each and every one of us, and the avenue you choose to take towards your dreams will undoubtedly lead you there if you have the faith to continue following it through over and around the obstacles that inevitably place themselves in your way, don’t resent them, they’re only there to check your resolve. Today I ask only that you listen to your intuition and find your path. You can find all the resources you need to pursue any of those paths at http://www.visionskape.com, but your abundance and joy do not deserve to wait any longer. Life is precious, make today the first day of the rest of a life spent seizing each and every moment.

    You just found out how seminars can be a truly life changing experience and how to overcome your fear of taking the financial plunge. Find all the resources you need to manifest the life of your dreams in record time and pick up a FREE copy of Wallace D. Wattles’ classic “The Science of Getting Rich” by visiting http://www.visionskape.com - the most trusted law of attraction review site on the internet.

     
  • Fail Your Way to Success

    The Truth 1:13 pm on March 11, 2010 | 0 Permalink | Reply
    Tags: , success

    A life of great achievement can be viewed as a series of failures punctuated by high points – successes for what many fail to realise is that the greater the level of success you achieve in your life then the more failures you will experience. And we have to have both – the failures as well as the successes – for how else would we be able to appreciate our success when it does finally arrive.

    Jack Canfield said in an interview that “Chicken Soup for the Soul” (co-authored by Mark Victor Hansen) was turned down by 144 publishing houses,”Nobody wanted it. They all said it was a stupid title, that nobody bought collections of short stories, that there was no edge – no sex, no violence. Why would anyone read it?”

    Their agent gave up after the first 33 rejections New York publishers.”Sorry boys, I can’t sell it.”

    Quite frankly, could you blame him? After all, he didn’t have the same personal investment in this product as did Jack Canfield and his co-author Mark Victor Hansen.

    But the “experts” were wrong.

    “Chicken Soup for the Soul” became an international bestseller and inspired a whole series of over 100 Chicken Soup books with titles as obscure as “Chicken Soup for the Scrapbooker’s Soul” and “Chicken Soup for the Pet Lover’s Soul Dog Food”. Really!

    In the long run, the agent’s lack of staying power turned out to be an advantage to Canfield and Hansen as they got to keep the agent’s 15% commission.

    It takes a very special mindset to persevere seemingly against all odds – the mindset of a goal achiever, the mindset of a WINNER!

    Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen are not the only authors to have suffered repeated rejections for their literary efforts.Other Famous Examples of Authors who Experienced Numerous Rejections

    1. John Grisham’s “A Time to Kill” was also repeatedly rejected. “A Time to Kill” was turned into a major film with a stellar cast including Samuel L Jackson, Sandra Bullock and Matthew McConaughey.

    2. Alex Haley’s “Roots” was rejected about 200 times! Yet, the television serialisation of Roots took the world by storm.

    3. James Redfield’s “The Celestine Prophecy” was initially self-published. It was its underground success that made publishing houses sit up and take notice. “The Celestine Prophecy” is a testament to the power of viral marketing. It sold over a hundred thousand copies within months of its first printing primarily by word of mouth.

    So you see, if you truly believe in something, within reason of course, then follow it through. Keep trying different combinations and approaches and until you will find a way to bring your idea, your dream into fruition.

    I was reading recently about Corey Rudyl, the Internet Marketing guru who turned a $25 investment into over $40,000,000 in online sales and, in the process helped thousands start their own Internet businesses. Corey died suddenly and tragically in a car accident last year.

    Corey loved car racing and he also loved the Internet business. He was just 34 when he died and it is a testament to his tenacity, perseverance and vision that the company he founded, the Internet Marketing Centre, continues to grow ever more profitable under the leadership of his protege, Derek Gehl.

    Did Corey Rudyl make mistakes? Of course he did but he did not see them as such. He had the foresight to recognise that each ‘failure’ could be turned into a huge success if he simply applied the lessons he learnt from his mistakes.

    However, perhaps one of the most famous men who would not give up in the face of repeated failures was Thomas Edison. When Napoleon Hill interviewed Edison he joked that if he hadn’t found the secret of the incandescent lamp that at that very moment he would be in the laboratory working on it instead of wasting time talking to him! Edison also said,”I had to succeed because I finally ran out of things that wouldn’t work.”

    We now all benefit from Thomas Edison’s invention in ways that Edison himself may have found too numerous to contemplate. Or perhaps I’m being presumptuous.

    Walt Disney was another great visionary who never gave up. When it was discovered that he was buying thousands of acres of swamp land in Florida folk thought he had gone mad but they didn’t have his vision. Walt Disney actually died before his dream could be fully realised.

    Someone later remarked to an associate of Walt Disney that it was a shame that he did not see his theme park in all its splendour. The associate smiled and replied,”Oh, he saw it.”

    Perhaps Thomas Edison’s vision of how the incandescent bulb would illuminate our lives was far more detailed and expansive than I give him credit for. Who am I to talk? While I work on eliminating my limiting beliefs I don’t know that I would have had the staying power to do 10,000 experiments.

    I guess my point is that if you learn from your failures and keep striving towards your goals or dreams you will achieve success because that which you seek is also seeking you. I’d like to leave you with this quote by Thoreau,”If a person advances confidently in the direction of their dream, and endeavours to live the life they have imagined, they will meet with success unexpected in common hours.”

     
  • Taylor Swift’s Career and Road to Success

    The demand for Taylor Swift tickets is crazy. Before a Taylor Swift show, their websites receive a massive increase in views. Taylor Swift may be the hottest act out right now! Concert tickets are hard to find. It’s not hard to believe after the way she has taken the music industry by storm. After selling more than 4 million copies of her self-titled debut album Taylor Swift, country music would never be the same. Taylor has become an icon for music lovers all over the country. She won Breakthrough Video of the Year at the 2007 CMT Music Awards for a song performed with Tim McGraw. This would be the first of a long string of awards for Taylor in the following year. In 2008, Taylor became a household name. Wins at the CMT Music Awards in 2008 for Female Video of the Year and Video of the Year were huge for the young artist. Taylor also had another big win at the 2008 Teen Choice Awards for Breakthrough Artist. Her popularity began to soar even more with the release of her second album. Fearless produced more than 500,000 sales in the first week alone. To date, Fearless has sold over 5 million copies in the US alone. She was at the top of the Billboard 200 for 11 weeks! In January 2009, Swift became the youngest country music artist to appear on Saturday Night Live. At the 44th Annual Academy of Country Music Awards, Swift picked up Album of the Year honors. She was the youngest artist to ever receive this award. Once again, at the 2009 CMT Music Awards she won Female Video of the Year, as well as Video of the Year. On October 26, the album was re-released as Fearless: Platinum Edition. The re-release contained six new songs.

    In January 2009, Taylor Swift announced her first headlining tour. The Fearless Tour would cover 52 cities in 38 states and provinces in the US and Canada over 6 months. This included a complete sellout of Madison Square Garden! Everything was going perfect for the princess of country music, until controversy sparked at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards. During Taylor’s acceptance speech for Best Female Video, Kanye West came on stage and took the microphone from her. He interrupted her speech to say how much Beyonce deserved the award. National media outlets everywhere had Taylor Swift on the brain. After a few weeks of silence about the incident, Taylor finally put it all to rest. On October 8, 2009, Swift announced her tour would be playing an additional 37 shows in the US. The Billboard charts for November 14, 2009 set yet another record for Swift. She had 8 charted songs on the Billboard 100, which was the most by a female artist ever. The only place Taylor could complain about would be her public relationship trouble. It is only fitting during this magical year she could finally find someone for her. The emergence of Twilight as a phenomenon across the US became exactly what Taylor needed. Taylor seems to have found the perfect fit with Twilight’s Taylor Lautner. Finally, this princess has found her prince.
