Goals are important, but not at the expense of happiness now.   Be present. Here are  some practical tips for being present. Be present as you do it — don’t think about work or your blog or what you need to do. However you do it, find a way to maintain a laser-sharp focus, and the goal will come true.

If you price your product in line with up-front competitors, but spread it over the course of a year, you will find that it appears much less expensive to potential customers. However, when you are building trust gradually over a year-long subscription, the opportunity to use that trust for marketing and business presents itself.

But one of the things I didn’t mention in that post, mainly because I didn’t know much about it at that time, was about the practical side of the… expenses. Now, every time I get back from my trips, apart from presents and other stuff I’m throwing into my backpack, I also bring home a lot of paper. Namely, receipts.

For a fairly reasonable rate, you can rent a hotel conference room and throw some ads in the local papers or on business websites and bring together an audience of targeted leads to hear you speak for a significant ticket price that more than pays you back for the expense of running the seminar and the time it takes you to speak.

Buy Expensive Things This is one of the most costly ways to impress others, and it is very temporary. This is a very expensive way to impress others though, and will also create some folks who are unimpressed by your attempt to impress them. 24 sure does present a solid partial counterpoint huh. I’m just kidding there.

You might find a PDA a tad too 'stale' in the way information is presented. Don't buy too sophisticated - you are not going to change your habits just because it's the New Year and the planner was expensive and looks good! Are you methodical and a logical thinker? If so, you might find a PDA suits your needs.

Not to mention too expensive. The most expensive thing in the world is not a book, it’s stupidity: you always get to pay enormous amounts of money when you use it. But then again, you don’t look like a guy who can be easily fooled and you know that paying for some extra knowledge it’s just useless.

Having said that, I prefer to keep a distance from those who wish to achieve success at other people’s expense, or are inconsiderate of other people’s feelings. And do I want to fuel their aggression and agitation, or let it cool off? The latter seems wiser. There’s no need for me to bring agony into my life.

I’ll put your mind at ease right now: your seminar doesn’t need to be long, it doesn’t need to be complicated, and it doesn’t need to be expensive.

Get More Peace By Using A Planner Using a planner - whether it is an expensive store-bought planner or a spiral-bound notebook frees our mind which reduces stress. As you bring yourself back to the present moment, revisit your schedule / To Do List and see what can be cancelled or delegated. Breathe in for 3 and out for 5.

It wasn’t packaged all that well but it was a product that could stand by those words and really didn’t need to pay for the expense of nicely designed packaging. Web copy is similar to a billboard in that it’s always present as a vehicle to market an item or service so you definitely want more than just words.
