    Identity Theft Protection: Don't Become a Victim
    Identity theft can be extremely damaging and upsetting for victims. Imagine finding yourself with thousands of dollars worth of debt you knew nothing about. Imagine being the subject of a criminal investigation for a crime you didn't commit. Identity theft opens the door for someone to use your name while committing crimes and opening accounts among other things. Identity theft protection is a must in today's society.There are two types of identity theft: Financial Fraud, including credit card fraud, bank account fraud, tax fraud and computer fraud. Criminal behavior that can range from cyber crimes to drugs related crimes and
    are you in or is a family member in? Where will your energies make the most difference to you or your loved ones today, at this moment?

    I’m not suggesting that the laundry can pile up for weeks or that you should always eat fast food. I am suggesting that you cannot do all of the things you want to do, so many of the things you can do should be done consciously, and you should feel good that you’ve made a choice about how to spend your valuable time.

    You cannot make more time in a day, but you can reframe the way you think about what you accomplish during a limited amount of time. This will help you to feel better about yourself and your life. Celebrate your accomplishments, don’t give guilt a chance to consume your energies, and make conscious choices about your priorities each day. The day is yours – feel good about the ways you spend it!

    Using Squidoo Concepts on Landing Pages
    I've been hearing a lot about social marketing these days. Too much in fact, it's starting to become a bit annoying. But like any good marketer, I do try to at least keep one finger on the pulse of what's happening online, so I decided it was time to try a couple of these new social marketing sites myself.Now I set up a MySpace account only because my kids were on there, and I wanted to see what their friends were saying about their pictures. Once I got signed up and figured out how it worked, I then decided I should probably at least research some of the marketing ideas that seem to be all the rage lately. Thus I went looking at groups, other people's MyS
    “There is never enough time, unless you're serving it.” -Malcolm Forbes (1919 - 1990)

    My son is 17 months old. (OK, all you seasoned parents out there, stop laughing!) I work full time, commute an hour to work each day, cook most meals, attempt other household chores and try to carve out a small amount of time for myself and my partner each day. Did I mention the 2 dogs and 5 cats? I understand lack of time. In today’s fast-paced, technology driven world, most of us feel stressed at not having enough time in each day to do what needs to be done. For parents, this pressure can be overwhelming. Not only are we trying to conduct our own lives in a manner that Oprah would be proud of (eating healthy, exercising daily, living our best life), and building relationships that even Dr. Phil couldn’t find fault with, but we’re also attempting to raise healthy, happy, well-adjusted children in a world that most often seems in direct opposition to those ideals. Where do we find time for family, work, personal development, the chores of daily living, oh, and sleep? The truth is, many of us don’t. We do the “have to’s”, an occasional “want to” and feel guilty about not doing the rest.

    Focus on Your Accomplishments

    It seems to be human nature to beat ourselves up over the things we didn’t get done, or didn’t do as well as we’d hoped. These negative thoughts do nothing to improve your life. Instead of lying in bed at night frustrated over the mountain of work left undone, reflect on the things you did do. They don’t have to be big things, even little things add up, and indeed, probably did add up to comprise the biggest portion of your day. A list might include:

    made sure the kids ate breakfast


    fed the dog


    locked the front door


    returned an important phone call


    started a report


    filled the car with gas


    noticed that your child’s picture had a great-looking tree in it


    wiped off the kitchen counter


    made macaroni and cheese for dinner


    let the dog outside before he peed on the carpet

    You accomplished hundreds of things today, and probably did them all well. There is no use in poisoning the way you feel about yourself by focusing on the things you did not get around to today.

    Let Go of the Guilt

    This may sound strange, but guilt is selfish. It takes away time and energy from you, your family, and other priorities. Know that you are making the best decisions you know how to make, and are doing the best you know how to do at any given moment, and allow yourself to feel good about those facts. Release yourself from the grip of guilt and allow positive feelings to take its place. As you start feeling better about yourself and less guilty, you may even find you have some extra energy at the end of the day or an extra smile for your child.

    Really Consider Your Priorities

    It makes sense to say we are going to focus on the positive and give up guilt, but being humans, it’s not that easy to do. That’s where priorities come into play. When you hear, or read, someone suggesting that you consider your priorities, what does that mean to you? For some, that means realizing that spending time with family is more important than extra time spent at work hopes of a promotion, for others it means studying and going back to school is more important than two hours in front of the TV at night.

    These large-scope priorities are certainly important, but I suggest you even think on a more basic level than that; think on the level of day-to-day tasks. Ask if it is more important today for you to take a walk outside with your two-year old or to cook the meal you’d planned that will take an hour. Is it more important today to do the laundry or to read the childcare magazine that’s been sitting on the kitchen table for a month? Is it more important today that you send a birthday card to your cousin or sweep the kitchen floor? What kind of mood are you in or is a family member in? Where will your energies make the most difference to you or your loved ones today, at this moment?

    I’m not suggesting that the laundry can pile up for weeks or that you should always eat fast food. I am suggesting that you cannot do all of the things you want to do, so many of the things you can do should be done consciously, and you should feel good that you’ve made a choice about how to spend your valuable time.

    Attorney - Someday, Everybody May Need One
    No one can seem to agree on just who was the first one. Considering their colorful reputation, you'd think that the first one would've been well documented. They're not viewed as being honest, as far as the public is concerned. You would think that someone whose job includes helping the public, would be seen in a much more positive light. But this is the life of an attorney. Especially those attorneys that argue cases in court. Why does the public have such a hate-hate relationship with attorneys?An attorney, in the most basic form, is someone who has been legally appointed to act on another persons behalf. For whatever reason, attorneys don't get t

    Become the Change You Want
    I recently saw a T-shirt with the words, “Become the Change You Want.” I find myself going back to those words over and over again. The words are taken from those spoken by the world's role model for change, Mahatma Ghandi, who led the successful change to independence for India. He advised his followers to “become the change you want to see in the world.” Those words ring just as true today.One of the most stressful situations we create for ourselves at home and at work is that we want changes from others and become frustrated when those changes don't take place. We want our bosses, our children, our spouses and our friends to change. We want our looks to

Why, the reason is simple but I believe many of you out there never really quite understand it. It doesn’t matter what ways you are doing at the moment to generate some sort of income online, the most important success factor is traffic! Lots of traffic.
