Lead Generation is Cash Generation

If you’ve grown tired of office politics and believe that having your own business is the best way to avoid relationship issues in the office, you may want to consider having an internet marketing business.  Apart from escaping office politics, an internet marketing venture can be done in the comforts of your home giving you the freedom of time to be with your children as well as the freedom to generate more cash for your family.

If you enjoy spending time in the net, internet marketing can be a valuable venture.  To ensure your success, you need to take the time to learn all of the tricks of the trade and ways to maximize your earnings.

It is important to know what your customers want.  Install a search tool on your site and track what your customers are searching. This will help you gain insight and information about what is most important to them.  With this knowledge, you will be able to create products and services that best suit the needs of your customers. 

In internet marketing it is important to reach out to your customers on a regular basis.  One of the best ways to do this is by enabling a subscription button on your website.  Visitors can enter their email address so you will be able to send them regular newsletters.  Make sure that your subscription form does not contain too many (unnecessary) fields to be filled-in by your customers.  A subscription form that requires too much information from customers will cause prospective customers to forgo their subscription.  At this stage (lead generation stage), you only need your website visitor’s name and email address.  You can ask for more information when these visitors become at ease with their relationship with you; when you have created your credibility with them and they trust you enough to willingly provide more information about themselves.

Your website visitor’s email address is sufficient information to enable you to create a constant communication with your visitors and help you build brand engagement and loyalty. So the more emails you collect, the more opportunities you have to drive traffic back to the various pages of your site as you are launch a new product, publish new content, launch an online event, or offer a sale.

In any business, customers or leads are the keys to success.  The beauty with internet marketing is that leads can be bought; of course the same is true with other businesses but in internet marketing lead buying is more common or it is more acceptable.  If you choose to buy leads, you must make sure that your source is credible and that the leads are quality leads.  The lead must conform to what you want your ideal customer to be.

Law of Attraction and Parenting

We’ve heard a lot about the law of attraction. Simply put, the law of attraction means attracting what you want by focusing on it, by thinking about it.  Can the law of attraction apply to good parenting?

You catch your children fighting. You get upset. You tell them to stop fighting and why it is not good to fight.  You make rules and lecture them on the consequences should they break your rules. You turn your back and the moment you do, they continue fighting.  

This is where the law of attraction comes into play in good parenting.  What you think, say and do to prevent untoward behavior of your children actually makes your child do that unwanted behavior.  

The law of attraction fuels attraction of like energy. Everything around us is energy.  Our house, car, gadgets and even our body is made up of molecules of energy. Our thoughts and feelings emit energy too.   

We are a powerhouse of energy, a powerful magnet of energy.  Your thoughts make you emit emotions.  Your emotions will either attract or repel people, things and events in accordance to what you feel.  For instance, if you have good thoughts, you will have happy or have positive emotions.  These emotions will then attract good/positive people. 

The law of attraction can support you in parenting. If your reaction to your children’s fighting is as described above – you get annoyed and irritated, you start lecturing them on “do not” – you are basically focusing on the negative energy.  This negative energy will then attract negative results.  Your children will keep fighting and you will always be frustrated.

Instead of focusing on the negative, you need to channel your energy to the positive side to attract positive results.  Our relationship experiences are determined by our thoughts, emotions and expectations. To have a positive relationship with our children we need to have positive thoughts, emotions and expectations of our relationship with them.  This positive energy will not only improve our relationship with our kids but will also be instrumental in growing responsible and good children. This will train our children to be in alignment with the positive things in life.  They will start to develop an internal or body mechanism that allows them to feel and enable them to determine good and positive things from bad.  And because of the good feelings that they receive from positive reactions, they will have a yearning to do as you teach and as you please.

You can develop the positive law of attraction when you focus on what you want, get your thoughts and emotions to agree on what you want. So the next time your kids fight, focus on what you want to happen.  Step back, calm down, think positive thoughts.   Then express your desires, needs, intentions and expectations to your children in a positive and loving way. Show them they are loved and accepted.  When your children feel these positive emotions, they will respond in a positive way. They will then cooperate to the achievement of your desires for a loving family, living harmoniously and peacefully with one another, giving respect and cooperation.

The law of attraction will make our relationships work with our children if we envision love, peace and harmony so that we attract the same emotions from our children.

 

Sef Love

Most single moms are guilty of this… they do not love themselves or they love themselves less.  They probably are consumed by loving others, most specially their children, that they forego of self love.

Self love is one of the most essential ingredients to success in all areas of life – career, relationships, health, finance, etc. Self love means accepting yourself and  believing in yourself.  It means recognizing that you are good and that you deserve the good things that life has to offer. Self love brings about confidence and a calm spirit.

People who inhibit self love find peace, joy and success.  On the other hand people who have low self esteem and a negative perception of themselves are never successful and are not contented.   

If you feel that you love yourself less, here are some ways to help you love yourself more, enjoy life and live fulfilled everyday:

1.  Appreciate your body.  Sure, no one is perfect.  If you can’t appreciate your outward appearance, appreciate your inward self.  Appreciate your intelligence, your compassion, your kindness.  Appreciate your attitude.  Appreciate how well your internal organs are functioning. Appreciate how well you converse.  Physical appearance, for instance excess pounds, a not so perfect nose, a flat chest, a difficult to manage hair, etc., will cause you to dislike yourself.  But if look for other things to appreciate your body and do this daily, positive energy will flow and draw you towards self love.
2. Reminisce good times and dwell on these.  Think of these moments and focus your attention to your feelings at those good times.  This will  create a positive energy that will set a new energy pattern in motion.
3. Don’t let petty things steal your composure. Did you know that chronic annoyance and irritation is toxic to the cells of our body and depletes us of energy?  So, the next time a driver cuts you, let it be.  Forgive and don’t let that minor incident destroy your composure and deplete you of your much needed positive energy.  Remember that your negative reaction will affect you and not that driver. Remember, you need to love yourself more.  Do everything to preserve your mind and body. As you do this on a daily basis, you will notice that you start attracting more of the positive things and events.
4. Enjoy, have fun. Do something that you enjoy everyday.  If you are too busy, just spare 15 minutes everyday to do what you love to do.  It could be a short walk in the park, watching a favorite sitcom, reading a book, writing, calling a friend. Whatever it is, give yourself at least 15 minutes a day to do what you love to do.   Give yourself a break.  Enjoy the fun,  be thrilled by the excitement of looking forward to this special time for yourself.  Do not feel guilty about giving yourself time to enjoy on a daily basis.
5. Love and appreciate other people and things.  Learn the habit of loving and giving appreciation. Appreciate the warm glow of the sun, the fragrance of a flower, the sweet and crunchy apple.  As you love and appreciate others and things no matter how minuscule they could be, positive energy will flow out of you and bounce back to you.

Confidence of a Single Mom

Going through divorce and becoming a single mom is devastating.  One of the worst effects of this situation is the woman’s lost of self confidence. As we mourn and grieve over our situation, we punish ourselves and claim all the faults.  We put all the blame on us. We throw a pity party. As a result we lose our self confidence and when this happens, the more we will be in deep trouble. When we lose our self confidence we will not be able to rise above the issues we are facing.

Self confidence gives a person strength and the power to rise above the problems in life.  Life is a journey.  It is like walking on a road where there are different pavements – some are rough, some are smooth and some go uphill and some downhill.  It is important that as we go through these different pavements, we learn to maneuver and become better travelers.

You sabotage yourself when you put all the blame on yourself, when you wallow in pity, when you complain, when you blame other people. Instead of bathing into all these negative attitudes and lose your self confidence, you must imbibe positive attitudes.

Self confidence requires daily pep talk.  You need to daily proclaim that you are capable to accomplishing great things.  What the mind and heart can perceive, you can achieve. As you gain the strength and grow muscles of positive thinking you will be able to conceptualize ways to achieve what you have envisioned.  You will gain the enthusiasm to read books, enroll in courses, look for mentors and coaches. 

To develop self confidence you must learn to love yourself. Do not be too hard on yourself.  Don’t punish yourself for the past.  What is done is done.  Punishing yourself will not correct the errors or make the past right. Forgive yourself for the bad past; forgive the people who were part of your past. Accept who you are including your faults and your weaknesses.  Acknowledge these and find ways to improve yourself.

To develop self-confidence you must associate with people who are confident.  You need to associate with these people so that their self-confidence will rub on you.  You will likewise be able to be in their core of influence and will meet people who are like minded and will be able to help you. Being in the company of confident and positive people will change your perspective and you will start to define problems as challenges and opportunities, of which they truly are.

Spend time with people who have good and positive things to say to you and about you.  Make sure you look for people who are honest in their opinion and have a bright perspective in life. Be with people who boost your morale and confidence. 

Stop worrying and put fear away from your system.  Ninety percent of the things we worry do not happen, so stop torturing yourself and focus on the positive side of life and regain your confidence.

Do You Feel Responsible?

Do you feel responsible for what happens in your life? Or do you believe that what happens in your life is outside your control? Do you feel you cannot do anything about it?

I can’t emphasize it more…the life of a single mom is difficult. At the initial stage there will be a lot of passing on the blame.  You blame the environment, your family, your ex and everything else except you. Have you ever considered that you were part of the problem? Have you considered that you were responsible for what has taken place? It could be that you were not responsible for the entire situation but you took part in it. You are responsible for allowing yourself to be a victim. You are responsible for not  taking action or immediately taking an action. You are responsible for your response.

Psychologists say that people who take responsibility for what happens in their life inhibit the internal locus of control, while those who blame others when something goes wrong in their life inhibit the external locus of control. Research reveals that people who inhibit the internal locus of control or those who take a personal responsibility on what happens in their life are more content. They are able to move on after the bad event. They are likely to learn from the bad things that happened in their life; they grow, mature and improve. They become stronger in facing the struggles in life and become a source of inspiration to others. They are able to impact the lives of other people; not just their own families.

To take responsibility for what happens in your life is a choice; it is one of the many choices that life offers.  Taking responsibility for what happens in your life doesn’t mean that you are in control of your life. No human being can be in control of everything. Only God is in control of everything.

To take responsibility means being responsible for yourself and the choices that you make. It means being responsible for your actions in the specific situation you are in. To take responsibility means acknowledging your mistakes and learning from these mistakes.

Do not put the blame on other people for what has happened to you. Rather, acknowledge that you had a part in it. Regardless of the degree of your participation, you took part in it. Learn to accept the responsibility for the things you can control. This will accelerate your learning process. This will accelerate the true healing process. This will help you forgive and will help you move on. 

Help Your Kids Become Successful

If there is one thing common to all moms, it is the fact that we all want our kids to be successful.  The success of our kids is the desire of any normal parent.  It is not enough that we wish and pray for their success.  You need to help your kids become successful. You need to teach them how to become successful.  As I always say, when teaching a child you need to start them young. 

Help your kids become successful by encouraging them to dream. Motivate your child to dream and plan the way to the fulfillment of that dream. Help him to prepare a roadmap for success. A good plan will not ensure one’s success unless the plan is implemented. Be his accountability partner in following that plan.  

Help your kids become successful by teaching them to stand on their own.  Don’t do everything for them or don’t give them everything they want. They must take part in the work at home, be responsible for the tasks assigned to them and be accountable should there be issues on the responsibilities assigned to them.  If they have been asking you for a toy or a gadget, tell them that they have to earn it.  Either they work for you or they work for a neighbor or somebody else.  Do not always be their knight in shining armor.  Allow them to experience hardship and to stand on their own. 

Help your kids become successful by teaching them the value of discipline.  They must have discipline in their studies. Encourage them to study their lessons as education is one of the tools they need to become successful.   

Help your kids become successful by teaching them respect.  Teach them to respect other’s opinion. Teach them to be courteous and to listen when somebody is talking. When you respect people they will like you more and will most likely support you in your endeavor. 

Being respectful will help your kids develop their listening skills, a very important component of success.  When we listen, we gain wisdom from wise and experienced people. Listening also develops another important ingredient to success – patience.  Patience is a virtue.  Patience will lead us to success because patience will help us to wait for the right moment and therefore avoid any move or action that could be detrimental to one’s success.  

Helping your kids become successful is like managing a business.  A business is expected grow and prosper.  To make this possible, we need to invest in a business.  The way we act and speak, how we dress, how we treat ourselves and how we respond to others will determine the  success  of our business.  

If we invest in a business, the more that we must invest in helping our kids become successful.  We must nourish, teach, encourage, and guide our kids so that they will seek to be well-informed before making choices and be able to make sound decisions. We need to ensure that how we act and speak to our children, how we treat and respond to them will be in ways that will contribute to their success.

Say Goodbye to Disappointment

Disappointment is a fact of life.  You may even experience being disappointed everyday.  Bad luck may seem to invite even more bad luck causing your disappointment to escalate – your coffee maker gets busted, on your way to the office your car broke down, you lost a client, etc.  Though disappointment is a fact of life, you don’t have to let it own you.  You should be able to say goodbye to disappointment.  You should find a way to get by. How? 

 

Be sure you have a network of support.  Your network could be your family and friends.  They are there to help you improve your self control and become your accountability partner.  When bad news strikes you can call your support group to simply share the bad news.  They will then give valuable insights on how you should handle the disappointment.  They will be your accountability partner to ensure that you are practicing proper handling of disappointments. 

 

They will be there (physically, if needed), they will be listening and they will be positive.  Your support group provides a shoulder to cry on.  Sometimes disappointment is best handled just be telling it to someone.  That someone else does not have to do anything, but listen.  When your support group talks, it should only be positive.  The worst thing to hear when your are disappointed is a negative comment.  If you get a bad report from your doctor, you wouldn’t want to hear your support group say that the statistics of those dying from cancer is 80%.  You must be choosy of your support group.  They must be people who can provide positive words and encouragement when you are disappointed.  They should be able to give you a pep talk and advice.

 

One of the best ways to handle disappointment is to commune with God. Studies reveal that people who are more spiritual are able to handle disappointments better than those who do not have a relationship with God.  Pray because God answers prayers.  Sometimes the answer may not be what you are asking for, sometimes the answer does not come when you want it.  But God is an all knowing God.  He knows what is best for you and that is what He provides.

Saying goodbye to disappointment does not happen overnight.  It takes practice to perfect any endeavor.  When you feel disappointed, force a smile on your face.  Though this will not erase your disappointment your ability to control your outward appearance is the start of your ability to control your reaction to a disappointing circumstance in your life.

Say goodbye to disappointment and do not let it ruin your life.  Life is like a roller coaster; there are ups and downs.  If it were not for these ups and downs you wouldn’t know the difference of being happy and being in control of your disappointments.
