| KIT # 101: Use The Internet To Help Build A Better World |
| Issue: #101 Date: October 7th, 2003 Publisher's Corner I hope everyone had a terrific week. Fall is such a beautiful time of year. My husband and I drove up to my Mom's place on Saturday and it's wonderful seeing all the changing colors at this time of year - especially when the sun is shining and the temperatures are warm. Regardless of the type of business you operate online, the most important factor will always be that you conduct your business in an ethical manner. It may be difficult to share your message because of the downfall of email but don't let that tempt you to do something against your principles. It's easy to fall into the trap of expecting 'instant results' when you work online. Another example is expecting everything for free. The reality is it just doesn't work that way. There is always going to be a cost - either time or money. If it's free but only offers part of the package, it will undoubtedly take more time to complete a task. You have to weigh the pros and cons of each decision and determine whether you can afford the time or will it make more sense to purchase that software, product or service. Don't be afraid to invest in yourself - your business. Share your knowledge with others looking for assistance. The true sign of a leader is one who leads by example. Set your standards high. Don't risk your reputation by trying to cut corners and taking chances you shouldn't be taking. Have a great day and keep on smiling. Lois M. Jeary Subscribe to KIT Use The Internet To Help Build A Better World I truly believe each one of us has a unique talent or gift (or for those lucky ones, numerous talents or gifts - that's not me!) something unique to offer the world. "Each one of us has been uniquely created by God and within each of us, we have certain special "instincts" or "natural tendencies/strengths/inclinations" towards certain things. When you learn to trust and rightly apply your instinct, that is when your uniqueness will shine through. You will have no competition. You will attract those people that just need and love your service or products. There are ways you can develop to let more of your natural strengths to shine through in your business." (and in your LIFE). I fully agree with those fine and wise words by an anonymous author (please let me know, if you know who, so I can give him/her credit). The KEY, I believe, is finding then fulfilling your unique talents, so that you can set out on your unique pathway in life: to touch other lives and make a difference, any difference. So let's all use the amazing power of the Internet to build a better world through making a DIFFERENCE: by sharing and giving something of ourselves. I see the WWW as an amazingly positive invention in today's fast-moving technological society. The net is not just a playground of "perverts and porn artists preying on innocent children", as thought by many concerned (and "ignorant") parents in the "real world". From my "rather humble and technologically-challenged perspective", I truly believe that we are at the forefront of one of the most innovative and far reaching inventions in human history. The net is the most cost-efficient , INSTANTANEOUS, EXCITING and effective way of marketing products and services around the globe through modern telecommunications, as well as being a tool to influence people around the globe with POSITIVE CONTRIBUTIONS. We live in one of the most exciting times in human history; so exploit the AMAZING POWER of the Internet to reach hundreds of thousands of people and perhaps even millions around the world. Use your creative energies and imagination to the fullest, by thinking of new ideas of how to help others and make their lives easier through marketing your particular products. (Incidentally, I keep a notebook by my bedside and leave to my creative subconscious mind just before I go to sleep... and I often wake up with new ideas in the morning.) No matter where you may live on this planet, cyberspace can produce income to so many "budding entrepreneurs" . The www gives 'ordinary people' without much capital, like you and I, a great BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY: the opportunity of self employment by reaching out to a GLOBAL market-place. As I see it, each one of us has a unique responsibility to ourselves, and our families. It is up to each one of us to reach out and help many people around the world through being innovative and original in our ideas... and the money we earn from selling our array of unique products can be used for many good purposes, like perhaps even helping others achieve their dreams. In doing that, WE WILL BE MAKING THE MOST USE OF OUR UNIQUE "GOD-GIVEN"" ABILITIES. "Our talents are our gifts from God, our Creator; but what we DO with our talents are our gifts TO God. JUST DO IT WITH EVERYTHING YOU'VE GOT! GOOD LUCK AND BE HAPPY Craig Lock - Craig Lock "All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue
them." "Let the light of your BEING shine brightly; so revealing Who You Really Are, your "Authentic Self". Be a Bringer of the Light, which emanates from our soul, God, our Creator, the Source (and Ground of our very Being). Therefore, it can do more than illuminate your own path.YOUR spirit will help makes the lives of others easier by illuminating others paths. For this light is our humanity, the spirit of God, truth, beauty and especially love...and this "spark of God" lies within each one of us." "Through your actions and your being, let your light, YOUR spirit
truly shine brightly on the world, like the radiance emitted by a
candle at midnight." "When the world is filled with love, people are overflowing with hope." http://www.craiglock.com About the Author: Craig believes in the great potential of every human being in the journey of life and loves to encourage people to share their individual (and guiding) spirits, so that they become all that they are CAPABLE of being. The various books that Craig "felt inspired to write" are available at: http://www.bridgeniche.com Review: Products or Services Where's Your Partner? Linking to websites has always been important. Today's search engines look for link popularity as well as relevance. Discover your link partners with ease with Axandra. Inspiration Don't worry about people stealing your ideas. If your ideas are any good, you'll have to ram them down people's throats. Your future depends on many things, but mostly on you. Most successful men have not achieved their distinction by having some new talent or opportunity presented to them. They have developed the opportunity that was at hand. Special Feature Follow Your Destiny, Wherever It Leads You There comes a time in your life when you realize that if you stand still, you will remain at this point forever. You realize that if you fall and stay down, life will pass you by. Life's circumstances are not always what you might wish them to be. The pattern of life does not necessarily go as you plan. Beyond any understanding, you may at times be led in different directions that you never imagined, dreamed or designed. Yet if you had never put any effort into choosing a path, or tried to carry out your dream, then perhaps you would have no direction at all. Rather than wondering about or questioning the direction your life has taken, accept the fact that there is a path before you now. Shake off the "why's" and "what if's", and rid yourself of confusion. Whatever was -- is in the past. Whatever is -- is what's important. The past is a brief reflection. The future is yet to be realized. Today is here. Walk your path one step at a time -- with courage, faith, and determination. Keep your head up, and cast your dreams to the stars. Soon your steps will become firm, and your footing will be solid again. A path that you never imagined will become the most comfortable direction you could have ever hoped to follow. Keep your belief in yourself and walk into your new journey. You will find it magnificent, spectacular, and beyond your wildest imaginings.
