Easy to pay and get fast payments with PayPal and Solid trust pay

Over 44000 members and growing fast

What is My Paying Ads?

It is a site where you buy shares of traffic and get a little revenue for every share 24/7. The more shares you have, the more revenue you get. Every share expires after they give you 20-50% more than you paid, depending on size. You can also use these shares to promote your own offers if you want.

There is also a possibility to get growing commission from everyone you sponsor into My Paying Ads. 10% on all purchases. And the purchases grows as your shares must be bought again and again with higher and higher profit. But there is no pyramid and no binaries, only direct sales commission. This is very good for long term stability.

Why join My Paying Ads when there are bigger and older sites like MAP and Traffic Monsoon? Because here you start by buying shares for 1$  instead of 50$. It makes it much easier to start and it goes much faster. The key is to have many shares and to be able to buy new ones all the time. That way you get a compounding effect immediately.

Example: Today I bought 55 shares, tomorrow I can buy another. The revenue will be over 1$ which makes it possible. Then I have another share that will also give me revenue. And if I tomorrow add more funds and buy 55 more shares I will get enough revenue for 2 more shares every day. These extra shares will eventually make it possible to buy even more shares.

If I would have joined Map or Monsoon I could only have bought 1 share (50$) and would then have to wait 50 days until I could buy another…

In order to get revenue you need to watch 10 members ad sites every day. Done in a couple of minutes.

And when you join me I will get commission to buy more shares and to help you get started.

The shares are divided into levels with a maximum of 200 in each level up to number 10.  The first level costs 1 dollar, the second 3, the third 5 etc. You get more and more revenue from the shares before it expires when you climb in levels.

My Paying Ads Levels

I will try to make a video to explain this in detail further on.

Take care and sleep well. Goodnight

Find your flow, find your success

I have been reading and studying personal development for more than a year now and a conclusion starts to form.

If you compare the greatest names and their discoveries you can see that they are all connected and that everything is built around the same core. But everyone has their special field and if I try to generalize them it can sound like this:

Tony Robbins is very good at helping you find the why and purpose in life. Jack Canfield is very practical around general success and Less Brown is all about motivation. Then there is Jeff Olssen who encourage you to take baby steps all the way to heaven, and Napoleon Hill who wants you to be a man of infinite vision and definite action. Joe Vitali should not be forgotten who wants you to buy success from him through his mentors and his music. Zig Ziglar practice the salesman’s successes efficiently and Mark T Ecker wants to tune your mindset into being a millionaire.

There are off course many others, but these are the ones who comes to my mind right now of the ones that I have been studying. And we shall not forget the “secret”, the Law of Attraction that is so hyped.

What do they all have in common? :

It is your mind and your mindset that is the key to your success

The thought of meditation and visualizing that many speaks about feels a bit strange for a “learning by doing guy” that I am. I think it is easier to think about it as to get the right feeling for what you do, especially since thoughts and feelings combined are the strongest way to set your mindset in the right state for success.

I am 100% convinced that the only thing you will need to find success and happiness in your life is to find your flow. And what do I mean by flow. Well if you think back and remember a time when you had a success streak in any area of your life, then you know what I mean. For me it´s easiest to associate with sports, for example golf. Where you  succeed several holes in a row and begins to just play only based on your feelings and not thinking about anything else than your present and future success. Not thinking about the past, not thinking about how, not thinking about when, just playing and feeling great. Just seeing the ball rolling into the hole.

And how can we achieve such a feeling of flow in our lives?

By throwing away your backpack, set sail for new adventure and start exploring.

If you start your journey by applying Tony Robbins advice’s for purpose in life, then you will now why and get the strength to start.

Then you need to face reality as it is. What are your current situation, how did you get here and what can you do to get going? This will make you see things clearly and make sure you are true and honest to yourself, if you listen.

Now we need some inspiration, and by listening to Lesley Brown we can start to move mountains.

To get your journey started just pick up the Slight Edge and start by doing the small changes that slowly improves your life. Ask yourself constantly, is there anything that I should do that can be done? Write to do lists of all the things that comes to your mind and start to do them one by one. Make yourself a new habit of never keeping anything undone, then you won’t have to have a bad conscience any more. And by freeing yourself from that “backpack” you can start to look ahead, what else can I do?

Now start to form new habits that are good for you. Maybe quit something bad like nicotine, added sugar, candy etc. Or maybe start something healthy like taking the bicycle to work, or taking long walks regularly? The easiest way to form new habits are by taking 30 day challenges and write about your progress along the way. By doing so it gets real, in printing and hard to avoid. Also easy to find reasons to celebrate your small successes along the way.

And now the fun part begins. When you start recognizing your successes you can start to ride them like waves. One area of success can be a motivation for another area that needs improvement and when having more successes you are likely to fall into the flow. Just starting to feel great and your thoughts becomes emotions and you become unstoppable…

Find you flow, find your success

Good luck

Applying “The Slight Edge”

In December last year I wrote a post about a great book, “The Slight Edge” by Jeff Olsen. This post has recently received good feedback and even a request on a follow up post. So today I will make a follow up post to “The Slight Edge by Jeff Olson”.

What is “The Slight Edge? To summarize it down to it’s core, you can describe it as actions that affects your own life’s scale. Are you moving up or down?

Applying The Slight Edge

A picture can say more than a thousand words. The above picture can be used as a map, a map to success that speaks for itself. There are 3 things in particular that stands out in this picture:

  • First we have the 5% versus 95%, which represents the number of successful versus unsuccessful people (not becoming or attaining what they really want and dream about etc).
  • Then we have the “Easy to do” versus the “Easy not to do”, that states the reason for successful results to be the summary of all the good things you actually do.
  • And last we have the core, YOUR MIND

When I started my journey, my only focus was money. But it did not take me long to realize that without working with my mind first, I would not see any successful progress. Greed and fear was constantly fighting to be in focus and thoughts constantly switched in between, causing catastrophic results.

When I started to work on myself, instead of working on every shiny object coming in my way, I finally started to understand how to proceed and how to bring meaning into my life. I had been wondering about life’s purpose since over 15 years, and now it just hit me like a lightning.

To wander without a purpose is like traveling without a map. You see something you like and just go there without a thought, all the time. Ending up going in circles without getting anywhere. Even though I had a goal, to make money, it was very hard to get there (not to say impossible).

But after cruising around, failing and making mistakes I eventually started to get some clarity to where I was heading and how I could get there. My goal was still to make money but with purpose shifted the goals got multiplied and divided into short term and long term. If you only have a long term goal you will have to wait so long to celebrate, the chance of giving up before that is huge. And if  you only have one goal, what will you do when you reach it? Make sure you have many goals to be able to celebrate the small successes along the way. And make sure to have many goals to always keep striving, don’t you ever get comfortable.

And it is actually here that the slight edge comes in as a life saver:

theslightedge disciplines

 

When you are working towards your small goals, big goals and towards your purpose you must use a system to survive and to get progress. A system to make constant improvements and growth. The slight edge is that system. By doing the small things every day and not giving up you get forward. By being disciplined and steadfast you will grow and grow beyond your imagination. Only the sky is the limit.

How do I start then?

Well. Let’s say that you know nothing, and don’t know where to start and don’t know anyone to ask. Then instead of starting by doing mistakes, as I did, you should read. You should read at least 3 different books about personal development in order to get life purpose, strength and confidence enough.

OK, so now we have goal. Read three books! Sounds fun and easy, could be done in a couple of months or so… Not to inspiring and not a simple task, ha? But if we change it to be in alignment with the slight edge, how would we do it then?

Well, then we would need a purpose first. For example: To learn more about our selves, to grow, to gain confidence and to get inspired.

Then we would need a way to do it: Read or listen to books and speeches about personal development.

Then we need a system to make it happen: Read at least 10 pages or listen 20 minutes every day.

OK, so what would happen then. The purpose makes me understand the real reason for doing this. The planned way make it possible. The system makes it fun, measurable,  successful, consistent and the goals makes it easy and possible to accomplish.

Can you understand the difference? Just to set one goal and try to reach it is not so easy, but if you do it the “Slight Edge way” it can be both easy and inspiring.

Next step can be to start writing down your ideas like I do. By writing at least one post a week, in a year I will have written more words than i would writing a novel. Hows that for training?

Or it can be taking on a challenge to break or start a habit. That is a perfect way to build some character and confidence. Could be done as a 30 day challenge. And if you apply a little of the slight edge with purpose, celebrating small successes and everyday tasks, you will have lots of fun doing it. Se these posts as examples: “30-day challenge“, “Next 30-day challenge: 30 days without nicotine as a start of my new addiction free life“.

Oops, time flies and I need to wrap this up,

Take care and stay hungry

How to stay focused?

How to stay focused when your whole world is tumbling and you just try to hang on?

That’s reality for me nowadays. But it does not have to be a bad thing, because it describes and proves that movement is in progress. Just a couple of years ago I had nothing to focus on, since I only tried to cope with everyday life as it was. Taking one day at a time with no plans and no future. The problem was that I tried to escape reality instead of taking action. Spent countless evenings and nights on gaming and gambling.

Image

Talk about making it hard for oneself. The only trouble I had was to be a father of 2 kids with a demanding wife and a full time job. Not to much to complain about, especially since everyone was healthy and finances were fine. Then almost two years ago, I realized that something had to be done to get out of the “bad spinning circle”.

Since then I have been searching, learning and trying to achieve improvements to how I live my life and to how I treat myself. It started as a search for making money online with trading and online marketing. Slowly I got more and more interested in reading and watching information about personal development.

Personal development is an ocean deep well of knowledge that will never ever dry out. You can continue to learn all your life and never get fully trained. The more you read the more you understand, and the more you understand the more you want…

What I have discovered so far is that I suddenly started to care about myself and my own feelings. One of the positive sides of this is that I now start to care about other peoples feelings since mine got important. Another good side is that by treating myself better I get to be feeling really good about myself, and that is contagious. By feeling really good yourself you can share good to others. Just by going around smiling makes others smile and feel better as well.

personal development

By taking small steps ,only creating dust from the start, I got movement in my life that now has led to me taking care of my body better, quitting nicotine after 30 years, finding purpose in my life, writing and trying to help other people, earning money online, having a lot better relations both at work and with my family. Talk about change in less than 2 years, right. Imagine what can be done with the rest of your life if so much can be done i so little time. It is never to late, and everyone can do it.

It is so important to take care of yourself, cannot understand how I just did not care and blamed everyone/everything else instead. When you are able to love yourself you can take responsibility for everything that happens around you. Even bad things that you can’t possible have influence over can be taken as lessons to grow and prosper from.

You must realize that it is not only the “homeless” that can achieve success as you read in all testimonials. It is just them that is the best story and often them that has nothing else left that succeeds. We “normal” people have so easy to give up, to just go back to the easy life we had before. With no thought at all about what that life will lead you in the long run.

It is the long run that we must have in consideration. What will this or that do for me in the long run, and even more importantly. What consequences can become effective if I choose “not to do this” now. Often it is so much easier not to take action and just stall…

Now you might understand why focus is becoming so important for me.

I want to learn more!

I want to give more!

I want to do more!

give gain grow

But time is limited and it is important to stand with your commitments and your family.

So how do I stay focused? Well, I don´t. I try to do it all. You can do so much more than you think. Just remember to organize yourself and your work.

Take care

The heroes journey

First of all, I want to thank you for coming here. I also want you to thank yourself for taking the effort. If you read this and give it a thought, the first step in your own heroes journey has already been taken.

What is “The heroes journey”?

The heroes journey is in its essence really the core of every intriguing story. From the ancient mythology in Greece to modern day movies like Star Wars, The Hobbit and Avatar. The heroes journey is a pattern of narrative, identified over 50 years ago by the american Joseph Campbell. The heroes journey describes the typical adventure with a hero who ventures out in the unknown world, overcomes great obstacles and comes home as a transformed person with riches.

Image

My own “The heroes journey”

I just found out that I had also been taking the heroes journey, but in real life, without even knowing it.

It was in December 2012 that I made the decision that enough is enough. My kids were growing up so it was past time for me to grow up as well. I then quit gaming and gambling, which had been a great part of my life. Probably as some kind of escape from reality, instead of facing the problems I had as a father of 2 kids and a demanding full time work. The result of my escape had been less sleep, less energy and bad performance both at work and in family life. My wife always complained about me forgetting things, which was a reality (even though she still does sometimes :-)

I started by deciding to spend time learning something new instead, and ended up with trying to master trading.This became a total failure since I am driven by feelings, which does not work well in trading. Luckily I started with a demo account trading binaries with a system called Pate. I was genius when learned how to read charts and really understand them, if you could have put your feelings aside. I also tried binary option combined with a martingale system that worked like clockwork doubling up 5 losses up to 5 times, if I would have stayed with 5 times. This time it was with real money and was profitable until I lost it all 5 times. I then went over to network marketing and personal development in Empower Network and Big Idea Mastermind. Started a blog, learned and started to advertise and started to listen to personal development presentations. It was a great company and a great experience but extremely hard to recruit so it ended up just being expensive.

The heroes journey

 

The road forward was extremely crooked and nothing really worked for me. Thought that trading with the help of others in Etoro would help me so I joined their traders “facebook” system where you could copy the successful. Only two problems aroused. First, I could not keep my fingers away and traded myself as well. You can guess the outcome of that. Secondly, the traders i choose always seemed to have bumps in their successes whenever I jumped aboard. I still have an account with Twitter shares on it, but that’s all. Then went on searching for robots to trade for me and joined a Bitcoin robot that was great, the only problem was that I never succeeded in linking the money sent to the broker with my accounts, so had to withdraw eventually. Now the rate has skyrocketed, offcourse. Next was to find some great system to trade Binary option for me without me having to choose the trades. I found and tried a couple, but they were all useless and felt like scams.  So I thought maybe a plain trading robot trading currencies could work. Was a bit more cautious now and started to search for the right one.

Then an opportunity came from a network friend about a revenue sharing company. Looked great so I put in all I could afford and more. This was something that did not depend on me, looked serious and could not be jeopardized by my feelings.

The journey continued with me starting a new blog and trying out affiliate marketing, just to end up with me feeling ashamed of myself. I guess all these personal development stuff was getting to me ;-). Failure upon failure led to more personal development and now, a little over a year after taking the big decision I have finally found my way back home again. Transformed and enriched. Last week I found the purpose of my life, yesterday I found out what I really had been doing (I had taken the heroes journey) and today I got acknowledgement of my first paycheck!

Your own “The heroes journey”

Now I encourage you to take the first steps towards you own journey. The difference for you is that I will lead your way and be at your side as a mentor and companion along the path to riches. My suggestion to you is to start reading books that will enlighten you and show “the light”. If you can read at least 10 pages every day you will be 3650 pages richer when a year has passed. To make it even easier for you to start, I can provide you with all the classic books in personal development. This is in a downloadable format where you get the books in both PDFs and Mp3s. This will make it possible for you to listen to the books instead of reading them. Which in turn makes it possible for you to use your phone in your downtime while exercising, driving, cleaning or using public transportation etc. No, there is no limit here and you won’t even have to put in any extra time for this…

As examples of good books to read, see my posts: The slight edge or Think and Grow Rich for free

Next step for you is to start helping your friends and relatives, actually the most important step in the whole process. By helping others you can grow as a person to levels out of you own imagination. What you will gain by this is insight, confidence, recognition, purpose etc. When you find your way home again you will understand. When you find your way home you will also feel so much greater, happier and enriched. But there are also possible financial rewards awaiting you…

Now the ball is in your hands,

Yours truly,Image

Life is a bitch, and then you die

How nice does that sound? Sorry for being provocative, but I wanna make a point here. If you continue to blame, to get angry, to get upset and to just let your life pass by without really try to make it a good one. Then “Life is a bitch, and then you die” will be you reality. It is so easy to take fast injections of energy, stimuli, and joy just to make you feel better. But what will that do for you in the end? It will only sink you down.

So, longterm is the game to play then. After reading the book “The slight edge” I started to see this and suddenly became aware of the little things you do to make a difference in the end.

The only problem now is where to start? I wanna do it all, but haven´t got the time or possibility to do it. Furthermore, I should not do it all since the risk for overdoing and crashing then becomes huge.

What has happened since last post then? Well exercise is now a habit of working out 2 to 3 times a week + walking daily at almost the double distance compared to past. Sleeping is improved and under constant review. Added sugar has been removed from tea and sour milk,  with the result of at least 10 fewer bits of sugar every day. This was made through my first 30 day challenge “No added sugar”. Constant reading and listening to good motivational and educational books as well as speeches has been enlightening to say the least. And every to do list of things that should be done and that could be done pretty easily gets done right away.

The only problem here is that I constantly  add new things and search for more stuff instead of focusing on the things I should concentrate on. So, from now on I will try to make the above work in excellence and stop adding new stuff. Will need to try getting all my thoughts and ideas down in writing and put the extra energy given on my children.

I love the evenings spent with my kids doing homework and having goodies

Life is a bitch and then youd die

 

All my different projects will be discussed separately in future posts, with tips on “apps” etc.

And by listening to my new favourite Tony Robbins I have now to set new goals for my life. Ones with more specific outcomes and more why.

Will come back to that in a new post as well I guess. As said before, many things to but so little time.

What I can reveal right now is my latest and greatest app on my Iphone that has been running for a month now showing every step I take. It is a stepcounter in you Iphone that lies in the background and tracks your every move. Inspiring to say the least…

Today I woke up feeling a bit heavy since it´s monday, got this as a first message. Talk about getting strength and starting to feel happiness suddenly.

Life is a bitch and then you die

I can recommend you all to get this app, its cheap and great. Just search for Moves.

Take care out there:

Think and Grow Rich for free

What a day, what a day.  Had visitors from abroad so the evening became night and all morning disappeared…

But I have good news for you, because I found great resources to get you going for free. Remember my last post “lets make this year even better than the last one” where I urged you to start reading good books and to start listening to audios. I there recommended you to read  a classic book by Napoleon Hill called “Think and grow rich”. A book written 75 years ago based on research and interviews with over 500 self made millionaires. The purpose of this book is to explain the secret formula to make you rich.

Think and Grow Rich for free

Through one of my networks I got these links and recommendation where you can read and listen to the classic book for free on any device:

To read it use this link: https://archive.org/details/Think_and_Grow_Rich

To listen to it use this link: https://archive.org/details/ThinkAndGrowRich_21stCenturyEdition

If you have an Iphone you can open it in safari and bookmark it on your homescreen to make it work/look as an app

Personally I can strongly recommend this book and I am right now reading and listening to it. The reason for reading and listening to it at the same time is to get the best out of it because you notice and remember things differently, as well as get a better understanding from going over it twice…

The version I am reading is actually not from the above link since I read it from my Iphone, and then its easier to have it in your Ibooks. Besides that, the version I am reading is with added comments specified for consultants and knowledge workers. I find it very useful and you can find it in appstore called: Think and Grow Rich: The Consultant and Knowledge Workers Edition. This version is also free.

When you read this book, think of it as a way to start your journey. Forget all your past and try to open your mind to it. Do not just think of it as a way to get rich in fortune, but also as a way to get rich in other aspects of life. You can apply this just as good regarding your health or anything you really desire and set your mind to.

Good luck and happy reading/listening

Let us make this year even better than the last one

Happy new year to you all..

.Happy new year

Let us make this year even better than the last one!!!

For me personally, I can say that I had the best year since my kids were born.

And why is that you may ask, well it´s because I finally started to take care of myself and think ahead. It is so easy to be living in the past and just live one day at the time not caring about the future.

But what happens then? Nothing, life goes by and it feels comfortable. You may even enjoy those little extra treatments of food, candy, luxury spending and not to forget all those lovely lazy days.

But what happens then in the long run? You will not enjoy it for long when your health starts to get affected and when your bank accounts are getting emptied. Then you will get depressed and urge for more “treatments” just to keep you happy. And so the spiral goes on in a never ending drowning hole…

But what can we do instead? I don´t wanna make my life miserable just to get better later on…

Start with the little things. As someone wise said “simple is better”. Make it simple and do it small everyday instead of trying to make it all happen at once. You will never succeed is you expect results immediately. What do you think happens to all the people that wins big in the lottery? Most go broke again, some cant handle it and just a few get happy. And why is that you may wonder? Because they did not earn  it, they never had to fight for it. Did you ever as a kid steal candy? If you did, you know it just didn’t taste as good as the earned and bought one, right?

But if you have a desire to change, to make things better in life. Can you do it? Yes you can do it, and you will make it happen if you just keep on working on your dreams one day at a time. But remember, it is not the goal that is the satisfaction. It is all the little successes and victories along the way. Believe me, because I started this journey a year ago and I still haven’t got much closer to my goal even though it feels like I’m already there.

My problem was that I had no clue on where to start or how to do it. I just decided that enough is enough and it’s time to do something useful instead of wasting time and money on gaming and gambling. So I started by searching the internet and boy did I get screwed again and again. I did not know that it could be so easy so I just over complicated everything and was searching for instant results all the time. But you do not have to do the same mistakes as I did. You can just step on the right path and get going instantly without spending a lot of time and cash for nothing. Well, it was not for nothing since I now know so much more and have learnt many lessons. I also know that I will never be able to sell stuff on the Internet that everyone is trying to make you. I might still recommend stuff I like but never for the purposes of getting rich. That is not for me and I strongly advise you to stay away as well.

Oh, falling out of subject here sorry. Back to you and me, and our journey towards being better and happier…

After reading some of the books recommended below, and trying it our for myself, I can now truly say that the journey begins with a desire,  continues with a goal and takes off with daily actions.

Take health for example. The most important and the easiest to start with, since it is so easy and so important to get results. A couple of daily/weekly suggestions:

  • Sleep regularly. Try to go to sleep the same time every night and try to get up at the same time every morning. Measure how much sleep you need to feel rested and have that as a goal. Will probably decrease if you work on the following suggestions…
  • Exercise daily, start with sit ups and push ups. Just a couple to start with and then increase slowly.
  • Make a decision every time you start to eat or drink. Is this good for me, or is it just instant gratification?
  • If/when you are up to it: Workout or run 2-3 times a week. Start slowly and enhance as you get stronger

Next area is your personal development:

  • Start reading books every day. Books about personal development or books that show you how to reach your goals. If you just read 10 pages every day you will have read several books by the end of your first year.
  • Listen to inspiring audios or watch inspiring videos every day on you downtime, going to work, out walking, doing house cleaning etc. Available on YouTube or Ted.com for example.
  • Stop wasting to much time watching television, gaming or gambling. It is not good for you.

The last but not least area is off course finances:

  • Start by putting aside a small amount from your paycheck every month and see if you can spare it. Then increase that amount every month until you find your limit. Put it on a separate savings account with good interest rate and you will see it grow.  I might come up with some investment suggestions later on…
  • Make a decision every time you buy something, is this really useful or is it just for instant gratification (same as for food or drink)
  • Keep an open mind for Ideas. Maybe you can come up with something unique?

Then there are the social area which I will not go into today because it will come naturally once the others are being worked on, and because it will be talked upon in other ways and in other posts. Like “is anger you worst enemy” , “useful little phrases” , “quality time” etc.

So how to start then? Well, start with your desires. Write them down and make some goals out of them. The goals need to be precise and measurable. Two of my goals as examples:

  • By June I’m going to the beach without a t-shirt, and feel good about it.
  • In five years I will have the choice to work as an employed or not, because my income on the side will be as big or bigger than my paycheck.

I also have a desire to become a personal coach of some kind but have not been able to formalize the goal for that yet. And then there is the retirement desire. How will my life be when I retire? Yet to come…

Well, I think that sums it up for today.

Please write me a comment and join me on Facebook or Google+

Take care and burn with desire for the better

Books to read that I recommend:

The slight edge

Think and grow rich

Secret of the Millionaires mind

The Slight Edge by Jeff Olson

Last week a dear friend of mine gave me a tip on a great book she was currently reading. She encouraged me to read the Slight Edge by Jeff Olson, because it might change it all…

It did not take long before I started to read, and boy did I get stuck or what! The best reading I had encountered this year by far.

The Slight Edge is all about how to approach you own life. We are actually living it, so why not make it good? By daily doing the easy little things that makes you move forward in life you can accomplish great things in the long run. For example, read 10 pages of a “good” book every day and you will have the knowledge from 10 “good” books in just a year. Start making 10 push-ups every day, and then increase a little every week. How many pushups do you think can be made then in a year? And how do you think that will affect your body? Imagine that you just add some sit ups and stretching as well, and when feeling stronger maybe add some regular outdoor exercise. What would happen to your body then? The possibilities are endless.

There is a lot of discussions about doing what 95% of all people would not do, because there are only 5% that succeeds in fulfilling their goals and live a successful life. Most people quit, because they want to see the results instantly. But the trick is to endure and be patient enough to understand and see the long term goal and benefits.

The Slight Edge was actually perfect for me because it wraps up everything I have been doing this year and gives me the strenght and courage to continue. Last year  in december I decided to quit gaming and gambling, as well as nicotine. To start doing some good with life again, to start moving forward again. For over 10 years everything had been about the kids and about work. It had been so easy just to flee reality with games or tv…

So last year I decided to start over and began by searching the internet for information about trading and making money online. It turned out that I was not the only one. Everyone seemed to be on the same hunt and everyone seemed to be fooled in one way or another. All kind of trading was tried out, but emotions made it too hard. A better way to begin seemed to be by joining Empower Network, which I did. There I found a lot of good educations and there I started blogging. Unfortunately everything was about sales, and that was  both a disappointment as well as “not for me”.

So far I have only found two good things, but the Tube Cash Code is also about sales and that seems to be against my philosophy so there is only Better Living left. But if I can keep up the good work and continue to explore and learn I might find more. If I could only find one good thing every year, then my retirement would become a dream.

Join me in my struggle and share your visions. What are you aiming at and what works for you? Do you have any suggestions for me?

Next thing I am wondering about is if there is any possibility of getting a robot working for you in trading forex or stocks? Is there anyone out there actually working. Is “Fap Turbo 2”  working? How do I manage my virtual server?

Hmm, there are a lot of questions to get answers on and this is what I will dedicate next year to. By taking babysteps everyday and learn it all piece by piece.

Please make comments and join me here or at Facebook, Google+ etc.

Take care and carry on,

/Peter

Framing expectations

Framing expectations

What is effecting you most, framing or expectation.

Is there really a difference between framing and expectation?

Or should you just use framing to create the right expectations.

Today I had a strange day where my expectations were so low that it would even be hard to match. The reason was that I yesterday evening wasted three valuable hours of my sleep just browsing the Internet and loosing in binary trading trying something knew. My low is when I get too little sleep.

Not even the wonderful ride to work on my bicycle did much to help getting this day on the right track. When you expect things to go bad it does, when you expect it to go well it does.

It is the same when you are about to experience something new. The expectations you have built up determines the value and what you get out of it. Too high expectations will just make you feel dissatisfied and too low will make you miss the good parts.

What if you could frame your expectations perfectly?

This is exactly what we need to achieve in order to persuade someone into buying your products. But if you only have products that you yourself love and use, you don’t need to persuade, just need to explain the incredible value of the products. And the real value is what it can do for you, what it can make you achieve. What it can make you become. Perhaps a better person helping others reach their goals and dreams. An example of how good life can be…

The question is just how you manage to explain this. When you explain this to your wife/husband or friend, do they understand what you are doing? Probably not, unfortunately. And this is just because they do not have your expectations and surely some old preconceptions.

What if you could frame it so that they could listen without putting values to everything you say.

Well, to be honest. That takes a lot of practice. Luckily for us, it can be found on the internet in nice little video presentations.

So, to summarize. You won’t need to persuade, but you need to be able to frame the presentation of your message in order to make it come through without disturbing circumstances.

We are not selling products here, we are making dreams come through.

Take care,
