Thought of the Day 

Think little goals and expect little achievements.
Think big goals and win big success.
Davis Joseph Schwartz

Article 1: What is REALLY IMPORTANT?

From an email I received

"The quality of our Life is in Direct proportion to the quality of questions we ask ourselves, and then answer those questions….TRUTHFULLY."

Many people give "lip service" to the concept of value Focused. However when push comes to shove, the Decisions that are made will always reveal their true state.

I hope you will take the time to Print & take the quiz. you may be surprised what it will reveal.

What is REALLY IMPORTANT?

Take this quiz:

1. Name the five wealthiest people in the world.
2. Name the last five Heisman trophy winners.
3. Name the last five winners of the Miss America contest.
4. Name ten people who have won the Nobel or Pulitzer Prize.
5. Name the last half dozen Academy Award winners for best actor and actress.
6. Name the last decade's worth of World Series winners.

How did you do?
The point is, none of us remember the headliners of yesterday. These are no second-rate achievers. They are the best in their fields. But the applause dies. Awards tarnish. Achievements are forgotten. Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners.

Here's another quiz. See how you do on this one:

1. List a few teachers who aided your journey through school.
2. Name three friends who have helped you through a difficult time.
3. Name five people who have taught you something worthwhile.
4. Think of a few people who have made you feel appreciated and special.
5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with.
6. Name half a dozen heroes whose stories have inspired you.
Easier? The lesson?

The people who make a difference in your life are not the ones with the most credentials, the most money, or the most awards. They are the ones that care.

Pass this on to those people who have made a difference in your life.

Article 2: HOW TO GUARANTEE #1 PLACEMENT WITH SEARCH ENGINES

By Dale Calvert

How can you guarantee that your site is located at the top of a search engine? PAY FOR IT! I, like many of you have had "The Search Engine Blues". I have spent thousands of dollars on home study courses, books, and sending employees to school. There is nothing that I have done to waste more time with my Internet marketing efforts & education than trying to figure out search engine strategies. 

I had, key word being had, a employee who's number one job was to have one of our sites listed in the Top 25 Search Engines. After one year, thousands of dollars in education materials and man hours not once……………not once not even for a week, not even for a day, did he ever get the site listed in the Top 25. This is a very bright young man! 

Finally enough is enough. If you want to get listed at the Top of Yahoo, Alta Vista, or with any of the "Big Boys" pay a service to do it for you. 

Go to your search engine of choice and type in "Web Site Ranking Service" whoever pops in the top two or three spots, must know what they are doing, right? If they are getting results for themselves, they should be able to do the same for their clients! Inquire about their fees and services. 

There just comes a time when your time is better spent, prospecting, recruiting, and training than it is worrying about your website ranking. 

I have also generated a great deal of traffic from "Pay per click" search engines. With these search engines you simply bid on the key words you want. 

You can bid on the key words MLM, Home Business, Network Marketing, Making Money, Personal Development, weight loss, etc. 

You can usually open an account for as little as $5.00. If you surf to Overture.com (the most popular pay per click site) and type in the search phrase "Network Marketing Training", one of my sites will currently pop up fourth.  You will see the description below: 

First and Only Mlm Seminar of Its Kind
Attend live three day training with top MLM millionaires: early birds save two hundred dollars. Learn how to triple your MLM income. Can't miss event.
www.seminarofthecentury.com (Cost to advertiser: $0.21) 

Notice it says cost to advertiser $0.21. Every time someone clicks on my site, 21 cents is deducted from my account with Overture.com

They let me know when my account needs to be replenished and I can do it all on line with a credit card. I receive weekly updates and am able to log on to the search at anytime and check my stats in real time. 

I use several other pay per click search engines, which are listed below. I have found these search engines to be very effective. They enable me to drive targeted traffic to my sites. 

Pay Per Click Search Engines 

How do you guarantee a high ranking on search engines? PAY FOR IT! Your time is worth far too much. Let the experts do it!
