When it comes to earning money online as a marketer, most people go wrong in exactly the same place. That crucial error? Their ambition. Unfortunately, too much ambition is very commonly the downfall of many online businesses and marketers which essentially causes them to bite off more than they can chew and then give up too easily. Instead of aiming to become rich or change the world, it makes much more sense to start off small. Aim to accomplish something small first and then build on each success to eventually reach the top. So what might this look like? 1. The Small Niche Business Model. SmartPassiveIncome.com is a blog owned by internet marketer Pat Flynn which shares his methods for earning money. One of his most successful recent ventures was a website aimed at food trucks. This is a very small niche that made it easy for him to find routes to market (ways to communicate with the target demographic). Compare this with creating a website in the ‘fitness’ niche and you can imagine

In order to accomplish the tasks and have the success we want to achieve, we need to be able to reach the goals we set consistently and continuously. Failure to do this on a consistent basis will result in us falling short of our goals and not being as productive as we expect and want to be. The tips and information below will help you to reach your goals more consistently no matter what those goals may be. First, a major key in reaching any goal is focus. If you can remain focused, you can get more done in less time. If you tend to lose focus frequently, figure out why you do so. Are you not getting enough sleep at night? Are you bored by the work that you are doing? Are you worried about some issue, whether at work, home, or both? You need to overcome the issue that is causing you to lose focus, as focus is a major key in reaching the goals you want to reach in the shortest amount of time possible. Second, be sure you set realistic goals. If you set unrealistic goals and fall short o

Bowling is a game sport that can free up your emotions. It can also be used to relieve stress and tension. It is perfect to those who are constantly busy with their lives and are frequently bombarded with pressure-filling jobs. But aside from these benefits, are you aware of other things that bowling can do to your body? Of course, weight control with bowling is possible. After all, with this game sport, you get to move much of your body muscles. It makes you physically active, so you burn calories more as well. So, more than gaining higher physical vigor, you get some of your weight off, consequently giving you a fabulous body you so die for. If you engage into this beautiful game sport, you can be almost assured to get your physical in top condition always. The good thing about this is it might no longer require you to engage in any other boring weight control programs, of course, depending on how much weight you are going to put away. Now, that’s good news, isn’t it? You need not sh

In 1986, Michael E. Gerber gained notoriety from his bestselling book, The E-Myth – Why Most Businesses Don’t Work and What to Do About It. Since then, the Wall Street Journal has named it the number one business book of all time. In the book, Gerber explains that most start-ups are bound to fail because they are started by “technicians,” or the people who know how to do the technical work, rather than by “entrepreneurs,” those who know business itself. 1. How Business Systemization Works. For a business to thrive, it must move past relying on the "technicians" that own the company. A great example of business systemization at work is franchising. Franchises are essentially prototype businesses that use well-documented systems in their daily operations. Franchises use written manuals to describe in minute detail how the company should be run. Spending the time to create a business that can run by itself is accomplished through business systemization. 2. Successful Businesses

You started your own business because you wanted the freedom that comes with being your own boss. Unfortunately, reality has set in, and you find that you are now busier than ever and can barely find the time to eat, let alone enjoy running your own company. If you’re bogged down with the daily tasks that aren’t utilizing your strengths, then it’s time for you to introduce systemization into your online business. Here are five easy steps to help you start systemizing today. 1. Identify Repetitive Tasks. The first step to systemization is to identify all the daily tasks and processes that you have in place. This includes everything from checking your email to setting appointments to creating and sending out your invoices. Open a new spreadsheet with six columns labeled, Inventory, Automated, Manual, Hybrid, Time Saved, Status. 2. Categorize Your Systems. In the columns on your spreadsheet marked, Manual, Automated, and Hybrid, check the category that explains the kind of system you will

Have you ever wondered why it is that we enjoy games so much? And have you ever wondered why it is that you dislike your job so much? What is the difference between pressing buttons on an Xbox and pressing buttons on keyboards? The answer may surprise you: it actually comes down to your effort and how much you care. You care about games and you make the effort because you want to get better at them and because there’s constant variety and plot progression to keep things interesting. This makes you try harder in order to progress and that in turn gives you the feeling of reward that makes the gameplay satisfying. From a neurochemical perspective, this essentially boils down to the release of dopamine. Each time you attempt a level or challenge, you first visualize it happening in your mind’s eye. When you then attempt it for real and this then goes to plan just as you visualized it, this will in turn result in you getting a release of the reward hormone dopamine. This is actually highly

You may think that the only people who talk to themselves are those confined within the walls of a mental institution. If you think like this, then you’re sorely mistaken! Successful individuals talk to themselves all the time. If you’re still not sold on this idea, read through the reasons below to find out why it’s high time you should start having conversations with yourself. 1. You become more objective. When you talk to yourself, you tend to think of yourself in the third person. You (the voice) is the third person looking in from the outside. You can distance yourself from your inner thoughts, and you can look at yourself more objectively. When you give yourself some options, you just may be surprised how often your ‘external’ self gives a different answer from what you were thinking about! 2. You can motivate yourself. A little pep talk won’t hurt you. In fact, it can help you plenty. Many people do talk to themselves right before they go on the big stage. Whether you’re prepari

It is not just our bodies that are a result of evolution. Likewise, it is also our minds and our psychology that have been shaped by the world that we evolved in and that is where a lot of our most unusual behaviors come from. When we were evolving, we were in far more dangerous scenarios than we were now and we could never afford to take risks. Only the psychological traits that made us most likely to survive were passed on from one person to another and that means that they’re the only ones that matter. This is why we are risk averse by nature and it is also – unfortunately – why we spend a lot of our time experiencing chronic stress. 1. The Danger of Ambiguity. Imagine that you were in the wild, looking at the silhouette of some kind of animal sitting on the horizon. You don’t know if that silhouette is of a lion or some kind of kitten… what do you do? The most pertinent solution in order to survive is to assume the worst. Assume it’s a lion and either freeze or run. The people who

There are many examples of successful people that we want to emulate and many ways in which a person can make themselves appear more successful and up-together. For guys though, one of the best things you can become is an ‘alpha male’. The alpha male is someone who is confident, who is powerful and who commands respect among their peers. This is someone who is accomplished and who others look up to. On top of all that, he is someone who has unstoppable confidence and who gives off a sense of machismo. So how do you become one? What it Takes to be Alpha. The key to becoming alpha lies in understanding the effect that evolution has had on our psychology. Evolution tells us that all of our modern traits originally got to be the way they are by evolving. That is to say that we are the way we are because nature selected for those traits. These were the traits that helped our ancestors to survive and thrive and thus they were passed on to us. This doesn’t just apply to physical traits though

If you have chronically low self-esteem, then there’s a good chance that this came from other people. The nasty thing about insecurity, jealousy and low esteem is that they are contagious. If you aren’t confident in yourself, then it will often cause you to become destructive and mean. You might put other people down in order to feel better about yourself and you might try to prevent others from fulfilling their potential because you don’t want to be left behind – even if this is happening in an unconscious way. At the same time, low self-esteem can mean you talk other people out of taking chances or following their dreams. This is not out of malice: in this case it simply comes down to the fact that you don’t have much faith in the ability that anyone has to change their fate. Chances are that you’ll know people like this in your life and that they could be the reason for your low self-esteem and confidence. Most upsettingly, there is a better-than-average chance that this came from y

Virtually everyone who has goals also has challenges that prevent them from reaching their goals. Unfortunately, achieving goals often comes through struggle and hardship; that’s why achieving them can often make us feel good and give us a sense of accomplishment. The key to successfully achieving goals consistently is learning to work through the potential roadblocks that stand in the way of us achieving our goals. Roadblocks to reaching our goals can be caused by internal or external factors. Roadblocks caused by internal factors can include such things as doubting our ability to achieve the goals we set, procrastination of tasks we should do to achieve our goals, and a lack of focus in doing the tasks needed to achieve our goals. When it comes to internal roadblocks, we need to work past them by identifying what the roadblock is and why we are setting up that internal roadblock. If we have doubts over our ability to achieve our goals, we have to work past our fear and doubt in order

Virtually everyone has many goals that he/she wants to accomplish over his/her life. However, we often don’t know what our true or ultimate goals are, especially right away. Children often don’t know what they want to become as adults until they enter college or even later. Sometimes, adults question whether their first career path is the career path they really want to do for the rest of their lives. In other words, it can be difficult to know what our true goals are. Learn how you can determine what your true goals are below. When attempting to learn what your true goals are, pay attention to what really motivates you. What really excites you in your life? What do you often find yourself talking about with friends and family? Whatever that topic or subject is, chances are that having some activity or even an occupation/career centered around that topic or subject is what will really interest you, bring your life meaning, and help you to find your true goals in life. Virtually everyon

Charisma is possible the truest and most impressive aspect of confidence. If you’ve ever met someone who has true, natural charisma, then you’ll know what this is like. They talk in a way that makes everyone want to listen. They are engaging, attractive, magnetic and just generally enthralling in a way that many of us only dream we could be! If you can’t think of anyone in your own life, then watch Will Smith being interviewed, or Obama, or Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson. These people are highly charismatic and it is immediately apparent. But how can we emulate that? How can we capture that lightning in a bottle and use it for ourselves? The Key to Charisma. As luck would have it, there is actually a relatively simple and proven formula to charisma that you can simply emulate. And it comes down to gesticulations. You see, all the people who are rated as highly charismatic have been found to gesticulate more than average while they talk. This means they will use their hands to convey a lot o

When we want to achieve several goals, especially those that lead to a larger, long-term goal, we have to be efficient and effective in order to achieve all of those goals that lead to the larger, long-term goal. This means we need good time management skills in order to achieve all of the smaller, short-term goals we want to achieve, which will lead to us achieving the larger, long-term goal as well. Learn how you can be more productive and successful at achieving all of your goals via effective goal setting through time management below. Setting up the goals you want to achieve each day takes planning, focus, and execution in order to successfully achieve them. When you have multiple goals per day you want to achieve, you have to be focused on doing all of the tasks necessary in order to successfully accomplish them by the end of the day. Failure in planning out your day and being focused in completing your tasks in a timely fashion will lead to you falling short in meeting the goals

Everyone has accomplishments that he/she wants to achieve; in other words, people have goals that they want to reach. What many of us struggle with is that we often don’t achieve the accomplishments we want to achieve and fall short in the goals that we want to reach. When we don’t achieve goals we want to reach, we feel disappointed and even dejected over falling short. What we need to do is to consistently turn those goals into reality in order to boost our self-esteem and our self-confidence in achieving the goals we set for ourselves. Learn how to turn more of your goals into reality below. When you are attempting to turn more of your goals into reality, you need to think and start small. In other words, don’t set these lofty goals that you have no way of reaching. If you are obese and want to lose 100 pounds, you’re NOT going to achieve that in one week or even one month, even if you exercise several hours a day and cut your food intake to one to two meals per day. Yet, if you set

When you first started your business, you probably never imagined that it would quickly take up all your free time to keep things running. From answering an endless number of emails to ensuring your invoices are created and sent to your clients, the daily tasks that you're required to do can become overwhelming. Systemizing your online business can help to free up some of your time, so you can focus on the tasks that will help you grow your business. Here are the top five tools that can help you systemize so you can expand your online business. 1. Asana. If you are required to collaborate with a team, Asana, (asana.com) can help. Asana was designed to help keep you on task by splitting up your “to-do” lists into actionable tasks based on the specific project, due date, and team member allocated.

The way you give instructions is going to be one of the most important defining features of you as a leader. Because ultimately, this is what will make up the majority of your job! As a leader, you are going to be spending most of your day-to-day asking people to do things and then checking they are done correctly. But in order to do this well, you need to know how to give instructions and how to ensure the best outcome. Here’s what you need to do. Be Clear and Precise. The first and most important thing you need to do, is to be clear and precise. The reason for this is that you need to be able to prevent mistakes and misunderstandings. If you give unclear instructions, then that will lead to your team either needing to ask for more information and clarification from you or to them making mistakes that lead to big problems and possibly lose you money. This means that the good leader is also a good communicator by default. If you’re not a good communicator… train yourself to be! Explain

When you have a fixed mindset, you inevitable stop yourself from getting what you want in life. Many of us listen to that voice in our heads that tell us that we can’t do something, or that we don’t have the skills to achieve something. This kind of thinking, keeps us stuck, and is known as a fixed mindset. If you want to achieve success, you have to change your thinking and learn how to develop a growth mindset. Here are some simple ways you can change your mindset to increase your chances of finding success. 1. Turn Failures into Successes. Individuals that have fixed mindsets, quickly give up after experiencing failure for the first time. Those who have found success, and have learned to develop a growth mindset, tend to look at their failures as an opportunity to learn from their mistakes and try again. Start changing your mindset today by learning to turn your failures into successes. 2. Change Your Limiting Beliefs. Many of us hold limiting beliefs that are holding us back from s

Have you ever seen the film Limitless? In it, the main character ‘Eddie Mora’ takes a pill that boosts his brain power on every possible dimension. He becomes more driven, more creative and far wittier and smarter. The result is that he makes powerful friends, finishes writing a book, gets rich from day trading and then goes on to become a powerful politician. Does such a thing really exist? While there are certainly ‘nootropics’ (brain pills) out there, the answer is unfortunately a resounding no. But that’s not to say there aren’t other ways to get a similar boost. And the best way? Train your working memory with dual n-back training! What is Working Memory? There are plenty of dual n-back games out there that you can play online or on your smartphone and all of them should have the same benefits for your working memory. I’m not going to talk in depth about what it is here then. All that really matters is your working memory and why this is so important for your success. The best way

We all want to live happy lives, don’t we? But the sad truth is that many people don’t get to live happy lives – they just waste away in their negativity. If you want to achieve long-lasting happiness and fulfillment, here’s how. 1. Know what you really want. You have to know what will make you happy, otherwise, no matter how hard you work, you’re never going to be satisfied. Having goals and dreams is important, but determining if it’s really going to make you happy is a more important question. 2. Live life to the fullest. You only get to live once, so live your life to the fullest. Have a bucket list of things you would like to do before you leave this world behind. Every time you tick off an item on your list, you’ll feel very happy! 3. Learn from your mistakes. Being afraid of failure is hard enough, but not learning from your mistakes is another matter altogether. If you never learn from your mistakes, then you wouldn’t be able to get to where you want to be! 4. Do what you love

Search engine marketing is a term that refers to paid marketing that you do to promote your website – usually specifically with search engines like Google or Bing. In the past, this was simply a way to refer to all of the search engine optimization methods that you used, paid and unpaid, but it has become specialized and simply refers to pay-per-click campaigns and other types of search engine optimization that you pay for. Let’s take a look at the different methods. PPC Advertising: PPC Advertising, which stands for pay-per-click, is a business model that uses advertisements on a search engine results page to draw in customers. Generally, they are on the right sidebar, but they may be in other locations depending upon the search engines used. PPC works on a bidding system. The person who bid the highest for a particular keyword is listed as the top search result. However, there is another form of advertising that you should be aware of, because it uses the same initials as pay-per-cli

Obesity is one of the biggest problems facing the western world today, and more than three quarters of all Americans have attempted to lose weight at some point in their lives; most have struggled, either in losing weight, or in keeping that weight off once diet or exercise regimes have passed. Exercise is widely acknowledged as one of the best ways to keep away excess pounds, but while many people long to exercise for weight loss, they often feel confused about how often to exercise, how often, and what kind of exercise is best. The biggest confusions lie around the question of how much time should a person exercise for each day, in order to maximise weight loss. Popular wisdom states that it is necessary to exercise for around an hour every day in order to burn enough calories to effect weight loss. This has lead to beliefs that a person doing walking exercise needs to cover 5 miles a day in order to lose weight, but this is of course not constant; in addition, people ‘lose’ energy t

Weight loss for teenage girls is a hot topic these days as so many teenagers are trying to look like their celebrity idols. What they fail to realize is that most pictures of celebrities have been airbrushed to make the woman look thinner and more beautiful. Add to that the bevy of hairstylists and other professionals on hand prior to the photo shoot and it is easy to see why girls are so misled. It is a pity that they couldn’t see their favorite celebrity in all her morning glory i.e. without makeup or hairstylists as then they would get a truer picture. So what type of weight loss for teenage girls is healthy? Some teenage girls need to lose weight and get more exercise. In fact about a fifth of the teenage population is severely overweight and that carries long term health risks. They are more likely to suffer cardiac problems, diabetes and a whole host of other illnesses. Other teenagers are underweight with anorexia and bulimia being an issue amongst girls and boys. Regardless of

For the past years, much has been revealed about the benefits of tea. It is branded as a “wonder drug” by many and whether it is true or not is still a controversy in the health industry. Though going back to ancient times, tea has already been used by many countries especially in Japan, China, England, and India to name a few. The buzz about the benefits of tea is becoming more and more complex that it can no longer be ignored. Testimonies after testimonies of people who are discovering the health effects of tea can no longer be put to silence. Well, no one can actually deny the fact that countries who consume tea the most also have the most number of people who live the longest life. 1. Benefits of Tea in Aging. Tea is known to be rich in antioxidants which are generally known to combat the appearance of wrinkles, age spots, and other signs of aging. Experiment carried out shows that mice fed with tea display lesser signs of aging than those which are just fed with water. 2. Benefits

If you are trying for weight loss pounds, you should read this article. Some people need to lose a few pounds. But more and more Americans are in the categories known as obese and morbidly obese. These people need to lose more than a few lbs. They need weight loss pounds. Some people have been able to have a significant weight loss pounds through diet and exercise. This is made popular by television shows such as The Biggest Loser. These kinds of people are able to change their attitude and lifestyle for life. They realize that they’re not on a temporary diet. To weight loss pounds, they must change how they view their body and the food they eat. This means they change the types and quantity of food they buy. They change the types of meals they eat. They change the size of the meals they eat. They change the frequency of the meals they eat. And, they begin to exercise. Because they may be unable to do vigorous activity, they may have to start slowly. But, morbidly obese people should c

A lot of us live our lives like penned animals. Built to move, too often we put ourselves in a cage. We have bodies designed for racing across the savannas, but we live a lifestyle designed for migrating from the bed to the breakfast table; to the car seat; to the office chair; to the restaurant booth; to the living room couch and back to the bed. It was not always this way. Not long ago in the United States, a man who worked on a farm did the equivalent of 15 miles of jogging every day; and his wife did the equivalent of 7 miles of jogging. Today, our daily obligations of work and home keep us tied to our chairs, and if we want exercise, we have to seek it out. In fact, health experts insist that obesity problem is probably caused at least as much by lack of physical activity as by eating too much. Hence, it is important that people need to move around. However, that does not mean that a lap or two around the old high school track will offset a daily dose of donuts. Exercise alone is

In order to improve your ability to accomplish more and be more productive, you need to be able to set goals that you can achieve. Many successful people set goals each day so that they know what they want to achieve for the day, then set out to achieve those goals. Learn five simple steps you can use below to help you set goals that you can achieve so you can accomplish more and be more productive. First, be sure to write down the goals you actually want to achieve. Many people just think about the goals they want to achieve, but never actually write them down. Some may question what writing down goals will do to help them achieve those goals. Writing them down (either on paper or electronically via Notepad, an app, etc.) actually creates a record of what you want to do so that you can refer back to it and see whether you have achieved what you wanted to do for the day or not. Second, write down realistic goals for the day, week, and month. These goals need to be ones you can realisti

If you hate waking up early, then you need to read this article. According to research, creating good habits and sticking to a morning routine plays a huge role in your success. If you’re a night owl, unfortunately, this means you will have to find ways to adapt and change your lifestyle. Creating a morning routine and turning it into a habit may sound difficult at first. But if you keep at it every day for at least a month, you will start seeing noticeable differences in how you approach your entire day. A morning routine will help you feel more stable and you’ll be so much more in control of your day. 1. It’s peaceful in the morning. Early mornings don’t have as much distraction as other times of the day. Your family and your neighbors will still be in bed (unless they’ve also adopted this habit), there’ll be less noise on the streets, and your personal space will seem so much bigger. With less distraction, you’ll be able to think clearly and you’ll have time to exercise, meditate, p

For new website owners, traffic is hard to get and can turn out to be to be an uphill task. Every website requires traffic, and without it, you are nothing. In order to increase traffic, it is significant to focus on the efficient ways to avoid time wastage. Every beginner should know where their key audience is and focus on these sources. Listed below are some of the ways a beginner can increase traffic to their site. 1. Wise Use of Social Media.

A leader must wear many hats. Sometimes a leader must be a ruler who makes the final judgement. Sometimes a leader needs to keep the team calm. And sometimes, a leader must be the one to solve arguments and disputes. One of the most important jobs of an effective leader of all though, is to effectively see the future. In other words, a leader must be able to anticipate what is just around the corner and predict what challenges and changes will face their organization. This is absolutely crucial, because it is what will allow them to create a more resilient business and to weather any storm. Moreover, it is what will allow them to take advantage of changes in the market and truly flourish rather than just survive. So how do you do it? 1. Financial Modelling. One answer is to use financial modelling. This is an accounting from strategy that can be useful in all manner of leadership roles – even including leading the household! The idea is essentially that you’re going to look at the situ

Don’t worry if you don’t think you are a ‘great leader’ naturally. It’s perfectly fine to feel that there are others out there better suited to leadership roles and in fact few of us see ourselves as being natural born leaders until we are thrust into the role. The good news is that most leaders are made rather than born and that means you can develop the necessary skills ‘on the job’ as it were. Part of this will mean doing your research, which you’re doing right now… well done! Unfortunately though, what doesn’t help matters is that there is a lot of misinformation out there making things harder for us. There are a lot of prevailing myths about leadership that doing nothing other than steer us onto the wrong course. Here are a few of the worst. 1. Being a Leader Involves Shouting. One thing that people think is that being a leader means ‘being in charge’ and that this in turn means stamping down their authority and shouting at people to reprimand them when necessary. But while this m

In virtually any line of work, you have distractions that you must overcome. An entrepreneur will especially have distractions that he/she will have to overcome. Some of these distractions are ones you can definitely control. In this day and age of social media, virtually everyone is on Facebook and even other social media networks (Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, etc.) constantly. These sites will continuously have new content being posted from all of the users on these networks, and these networks are configured to alert you instantly whenever there is new content available on the network. It’s human nature to want to know what is going on with family, friends, and/or fans/followers on social media networks. Therefore, whenever you get a notification that you have new content posted or a new friend request, you want to check what it is or who it is. Unfortunately, this will take your focus away from your work. Thus, you have the ability to not log onto your social media accounts while

If you want to accomplish as much as you possibly can, the most important thing to get right is the vision or goal you have to begin with. This is essentially the same as setting your trajectory and without a trajectory, you don’t stand much chance of getting to your destination. Unfortunately, many people don’t know how to correctly write goals and this can end up preventing them from standing any chance of success in their chosen field. And actually, if you’re setting off to write a goal then you’re starting out with the wrong intent to begin with. Because ‘goals’ aren’t really as useful as visions – which is what we’re going to explore here. 1. The Difference Between a Goal and a Vision. So what’s the difference between a goal and a vision? Essentially, a goal is something that you write down and that is very concrete and simple. A goal may for example be to ‘lose 10lbs in two months’. That’s a goal but it’s also not as effective as a vision designed to the same end. This same ambit

Exercise is fun. Exercise is healthy. Exercise is important. Exercise is also tiring, and the sweat makes you feel icky. For those who agree with the first three sentences, you’re on your way to developing your positive thinking!
