Saving Accounts

In terms of budgets, savings are the be all and end all. With saving you can sleep soundly at night knowing you have some protection. Without them, you are leaving yourself exposed if anything should happen.

But not all savings accounts are the same, and you want to make sure that you get the best bang for your buck, and the best possible return that you can on your money.

We recommend you visit www.wamu.com for all your savings account needs. Wamu is the style of new banking for the future. Visit the website and they will take care of all your banking and financial needs, even credit cards.

Our favourite feature is that you can open a savings account on line, no having to wait weeks, with countless bank visits to open the account, do it from the comfort of your own home or office. We personally recommend the online savings account.

Check out the savings account by clicking on this link Savings Accounts

So do yourself a favour, if you don’t have much savings start building on it as best as you can and go go go. If you want to get the best return and save on fees, then visit wamu.com Savings Accounts

We wish you all the best with your future financials vist the website herehttp://www.wamu.com/personal/savings_account/default.asp

Don't commit to some tasks

Are great way to achieve your goals is by stopping doing work that isn't relevant.

Often people committ to tasks even when they know they don't have time or are not going to do a good job. Our view is that you should help people whenever you can, but if you can't tell them straight away.

You will be surprised at how easier this makes your life.

Good Grammer

Writing in essence is about punctuation. Today, we though we would provide a list of when to use different types of punctuation. Enjoy.


Commas: If we are going to get something wrong, it is usually the comma. When you're writing down a thought and you want to take a breath, put it in. In many cases you need two, as comma's can be used to make a sentance within a sentance.

Semi-colon: Semi-colons can be used to highlight a point, or to detail a slightly different topic, without the need for a new sentance. Be careful not to over use semi-colons as they can create confusion.

Colon: Use when you want to make an example of something: For example, just like this.

The above three points, will hopefully get you on the right track. In our next article we will detail some more common punctuations.

Self help: Attitude is everything!

Self help: Attitude is everything

Having the right attitude is one of the keys to success. Attitude determines whether we are happy or sad, often whether we are going to win or lose. At the very least a hopeful attitude determines internal success.

As we often run in to potential threats on our positive attitude, today we are going to provide you with a list of aphorisms to help you when you are under stress and your attitude is threatened.

Kites rise against the wind, not with it
A rubber band becomes effective only when it’s stretched.
Choices not circumstances determine how we think.
Where there is no faith in the future there is no power in the present
Act “as if” we are successful and we will be.

Keep these at hand for when you are having “one of those day’s” and they will help bring you up.

Visualisation - key to changing habits

There is often an attitude among people that visualisation is a waste of time. We recall one particular manager, when we were working in quite a remote area of the country, who had a simple attitude: Don’t waste time planning or thinking about it, just do it!!!

We agree in part, that you definitely have to take action; albeit, we also believe that you can undertake visualisation in addition to “just doing it”. Combined, you unleash the full potential.

Visualisation is not a new thing. It has been used by peak performers for years. Sporting greats who visualise that shot at goal. Billionaires who visualise how their company will grow; and most importantly goal setters who visual themselves achieving their goals.

The power of visualisation has also been the subject of numerous scientific studies. While there has been some questions over methodologies, there seems to be clear evidence to suggest that people who visualise something, generally have a greater chance of creating that something.

For example, a person who visualises a calm and happy home life, has a calm and happy home life. The business owner who visualises success, tends to be successful.

Make it a habit to take some time (it doesn’t have to be much, just five or 10 minutes), to relax and visualise what you want to achieve. Imagine that you have already achieved it. How does it make you feel? Keep redoing this until it becomes second nature. What you believe you can achieve.

Parenting: The People's tips

Parenting: The peoples tips

In today’s article we have turned the parenting tips over to the people. We often get tips about how parents treat their children, and on what works and doesn’t work. We thought it was about time we provide a list of the main tips we get. Enjoy.
· Put your baby down when she/he is still awake. This is the key to having them sleep through the night.
· Read all food labels. You never know what is in food these days. This will help to make them healthier and may even stop a bad allergic reaction.
· Present a unified front: Don’t show your differences in front of your child – show you are consistent and support each other.
· Say sorry to your kids when you make a mistake.
· Monitor yourself: Your child will pick up most of their moral guidance from the parents – make sure you are teaching them well.
· Don’t be over protective. Kids learn through making mistakes and hurting themselves in minor ways. Just make sure they are monitored to some degree.
· Bail and switch: When your child is misbehaving, distract him with something that’s incompatible with the misbehaviour. For example, if your child is grabbing food from someone else’s plate, hand him a glass of milk.
· Ban bad mouthing. Your child will most likely learn this from you…did you see that lady’s dress what was she thinking!!! – teach them to not say bad things to other people.
· Be silly. Enjoy playing and laughing with them.

How to brain storm goals

Goal Setting: How to brain storm your goals

As we have discussed in previous articles, high level goal setting focuses on four main areas of your life: health, wealth, family/community and spirituality. That’s the easy part. But how do you go about finding what you really want to achieve in each of these four areas. In today’s goal setting article we show you how.

The best way is brainstorming. Brainstorming boosts creativity and helps generate many ideas quickly. However, brainstorming by itself can be frivolous, and you can often end up further away from finalising your goals than you were at the start. To keep you on track with your brainstorming, consider using the following tips.

• Brainstorm for ideas only (the review comes later)
• Write up every suggestion as it comes (no matter how out of left field)
• Suspend your judgement – it is often the thinking outside of the box that leads you to extraordinarily results.
• Go for quantity – after you review you can look at the quality

Once you have written down everything, take a small break and then come back to evaluate what you have written. Consider what topics best meet your needs and what you want to achieve in life. From here you need to narrow your thinking and ideas in to two or three main points. These main points will help guide you into what you want to achieve in this area of your life.

How to eat your greens

We have written may articles on eating your greens, but because of all the benefits, we thought we would write another!!!

Long time sufferers of our daily ezine at www.goals-4-life.com will know the drill. Steam your greens and then add lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper. While we know that this tastes great. There are also many other benefits.

The most important is in the lemon juice. Lemon juice helps to keep antioxidants in our bodies. By having lemon juice with vegetables you absorb more nutrients. Simple yet it tastes great!!!

Enjoy.

Finding extra time

Goal Setting: Finding Extra Time

One of goals-4-life favourite parts of goal setting, is to help people find more time, time that they didn’t know they had. In today’s article we will discuss some finding extra time tips. We have discussed a few previously, but it won’t hurt to detail them again!!!

• Reduce paperwork and develop a good filing system: This saves you heaps of time as you won’t be continuously looking for documents.
• Get up early: Almost all successful people get up early,
• Do the most important tasks first.
• Transition time: If you travel a hour a day each way to work, after 35 years of work, you will have spent over 2 years travelling – use it wisely.
• Turn off the TV: TV can be fun, and a good way to relax (sometimes), but it can drain heaps of time.
• Relax: Take time to relax…you will be more productive. When you relax, don’t think about work etc, this is your relaxing time.

Smorty: The benefits

Blogging is a win win activity. The blogger provides useful information that readers can use, and also gets the joy of writing to an audiance.

What can make blogging even better, is the fact that you can actually profit off the blogs you write as well. While there are many was to do this, the most beneficial is via smorty.

Smorty, in simple terms connects up relevant advertisements with relevant blogs. In between your normal articles that you provide your readers with for free, you simple write an article about a particular topic or company. Your readers can choose whether to click on it or not - if its something they find relevant.

With all the benefits blogging has, the opportunity of a payment helps the blogger to keep going and to keep providing useful information.

The concept is exactly the same as news sites and google sites etc, yet with one important difference. The readers know the blogger personally, and know that the ads recommended will be suitable.

Goal Setting: Writing in a concise way

Goal Setting: Writing in a concise way

One of the building blocks of good goal setting is time management. If you can make the most out of every minute that you are working (remember you still need time to relax), you will have more time to achieve your goals.

One way of saving time for yourself and other people is to write in a concise way. In this modern world we still feel the need to write things in great detail, while that is required for academia and for novels, for business we can get away with writing less and more concise.

As a first rule, try not to use jargon, this wastes everyone’s time if no one knows what it means. Also try not to waffle, think about the message you are trying to get across? Speak it…often that helps.

After you have written a letter or memo etc, go through it. Are there any unnecessary words, sentences or paragraphs? This may take a little longer for the first few times, but in the long run, it will set you well on the way to finding more time.

Prescription glasses online

Tired of paying top dollar for your perscription glasses? Tired of the sales people that try and sell you the most expensive frame? Then why not check out www.zennioptiocal.com. They sell stylish and affordable perscription glasses online, and take the fuss out of buying your new glasses.

Do yourself a favour and check out the site, you won't believe the styles and the price. Enjoy.

Goal Setting: Small Regular Improvements

Goal Setting: Small Regular Improvements

Today, in our goal setting article we will look at the benefits of small regular improvements. Goal setting is a funny things, most people seem to view it as either all or nothing. After new years, people go after their goals hard for a week or two, and then normally stop.

Unless you are in a hard situation, or achieving your goal is of the utmost importance to you, chances are you won’t be able to sustain the hard core effort you have put in.

The best way to achieve your goals is to undertake a small amount of regular work every day, and to have your goals and tasks well defined.

Make sure you undertake an action each day that will lead you towards achieving your goals.

Note: If you do have times were you are really motivated, or in a situation where you have to push hard, then use it to your advantage. These moments are great for moving things quickly. Just recognise that these period may be short, and don’t feel upset when you go back to your normal path.

Benefits of Salt

We wrote an article in our daily ezine about the benefits of salt. Although we have only just recently published the article, we have received a lot of feed back.

We would like to reiterate that when we talk about the benefits of salt we are referring to sea salt, not the normal table salt which is highly adulterated.

The majority of the water in the human body has some salt in it, therefore in its right form it helps to balance the body.

Enjoy in moderation as always!!!

Shopping Carts

One of the most important aspects of building a e-commerce website, is ensuring your shopping cart and payment details are right. If you don't do this, then you are vertually throwing money away.

Goal Setting - Time Management Tips

Goal Setting – Time Management Tips
Effective time management is essential for achieving your goals. After all, time is one of the best resources you have; if used in an effective way.

• Review your tasks and work out which ones are key to achieving your goals.
• Do the most important tasks first (even if they are the most difficult – in fact they probably will be!!!)
• Learn to delegate – but don’t just limit it to your working life, do it for your whole life.
• Use technology such as a planner or PDA.
• But don’t use to much technology – technology can help, but to much or to little will hinder you.
• Learn to say no.
• Strive for excellence rather than profession (excellence is doing the best job you can in the time allocated)
• Keep a master list of all that you do (don’t use loose notes as you can lose these)
• Plan, Plan and Plan…preferably the night before (or first thing if you are a morning person)

Find out where to begin

One of the most common exuses for not starting or achieve a goal is "I don't know where to begin". This is common in people who haven't set themselves clear agenda's and are letting life provide the direction.

To know where to begin, you have to plan. Break down the things you need to do into easily manageable tasks and get going!!!

You also need to have a strategic perspective. If you get to caught up in the task you can lose site of the bigger picture.

Stop what you are doing, take a strategic look, and then get back on track to what you need to do.

If you have been a reader of this blog for any amount of time, you will know that there is no "proven" secret to losing weight and to being healthy.

The only secret is moderation. Lose weight gradually and exercise moderately. If you lose weight to quickly you will be likely to put it back on. Exercise to much, or in the wrong way, you may mjure yourself, or you will actaully make yourself hungrier!!!

Eat a moderate diet, still enjoy all foods but don't go over the top - limit sugar and carbs as much as you can.

Try exercising with repetition (eg hill sprints), this has been proven to have benefits that far out weight long distance running!!!

Cheers and stay healthy

UK Driving system

Wouldn't it be great if you could beat some of the driving fines that you have. Well now you can. The website uk-driving-secrets shows you how to legally beat traffic and parking fines.

Now don't get me wrong, there are definately some fines that you probably deserve - eg we don't endorse travelling at 100 miles an hour on a local street. However, there are some where you get a fine and you were doing just 2 miles over the speed limit - it is these fines we want to help you with.

Or imagine you got a parking fine for been in a spot 2 minutes over the required time? Seems unfair doesn't it...just another way to raise revenue.

Do yourself a favour and checkout the site below!!!

value of friendships

One of the most important aspects of life is good friends and a good social life. As you get busier you can often take these fundamental neccesities for granted.

Subliminal CDs

We have written a few articles recently about subliminal CDs, and the ability they have to improve your life. We must confess that we have used them in the past (and currently) to help achieve, and to overcome obstacles.

As you know subliminal messages reach you just below your consciousness. Our consciousness only represents about 10 percent of our brain power, so it is essential that we focus our thoughts on the subconscious - this has been practiced by the military for years.


If 2008 is the year where you wanted to achieve your goals or overcome your fears, then we strongly urge you to click on the link below.

Editors note 10-01-08

It is definately a hot day in Melbourne today.

As we write this it is 10:20pm and it is still 37 degrees. The kids don't seem to mind the hot weather, they spend most of their time in the pool. It is us adults that seem to find it harder to cope with.

The two older kids are off to marysville or two days with their grandparents, so I am sure they will have a lot of fun - there are four and three so at a great age to go away.

We wish you all a happy nd productive day!!!

enthusiasm: the other side

We often hear how important enthusiasm is to succeed. Without enthusiasm, you can be the smartest person in the world, but you will still fall short of succeeding on your goals.

However, what many people don’t realise is that there is a equally strong flip side for enthusiasm. With enough enthusiasm, it is also quite difficult to fail!!! This is because you will keep trying to find a way to do something.

Sooooo….be enthusiastic.

Do things for others

One of the keys to happiness is helping out others. Unfortunately, in our modern society we often forget this fundamental rule. We get so caught up in our day to day activities we put off helping people until another time.

Today, we would like to discuss how you can fit time in to help other people. The best way is to schedule "helping others" time into your diary.

Start by putting in a few hours a week and build up from there!!!

You will feel enriched and happy for the experience.

Adding richness to your life with art.

In the book "live like a billionaire on a normal person's salary" we are introduced to many techniques for how to make your life richer. One of the most important ones is to gain an appreciation of art.

Art stimulates the sensors, and helps you to appreciate quality in life. You don't have to follow understand the meaning behind each piece of art, and you don't have to like all the famous pieces to gain value and to add richness to your lives.

One of the great art gallaries around is the Park West Art Gallery.

dont take things for granted

When we are chasing after our goals we are often doing a lot of things at one time. This can lead us to forget about some of the things that are really important.

So today we want you to promise us that you won't take the people who are important to you and things that are important to you. It is these things that are the important things in life.

Goal Setting Paris Hilton

Goal Setting
Just to take away some class from this ezine publication, we are going to write a brief article on Paris Hilton. We definitely won’t be using the term, our good friend, when we refer to her!!! That just sounds too dangerous.
We would like to write an article on her goal setting ability. To start, as a disclaimer, we don’t know Ms Hilton, we haven’t seen her well publicised induction into the home made movie business, and we really don’t know which rumours are true or untrue about her.
What we do know is that she is building up a business empire, and seems to be achieving goal after goal. She started out being the daughter of a rich hotel owner, but she has become so much more than that.
From her own TV show (the simple life), to music, even to endorsements of clothing, she is pushing her bad girl attitude out there. Now we are definitely not saying we admire her, and that she is a good roll mode (we are still trying to work out if she is ill moral or amoral). But we have to admire her business sense.
One thing that we can gain from her goal setting and business ability, is to use adversity and bad publicity to her advantage. Her little episode in Jail seems to have built her character more than anything else – funny how what is happening to Brittney Spears hasn’t done the same!!!
So how does this relate back to you dear readers, and your goal setting: Simple. Set your goals, go after them hard, and no matter what happens work out a way to use it to your advantage.
