[Observations on business and life]

Success follows doing what you want to do. There is no other
way to be successful. --Malcolm Forbes

Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is
more important than any one thing. --Abraham Lincoln

By following your heart's desire and sticking with it to the
end, you'll likely reach your goal sooner rather than later.

"Ten Steps To A Successful Life"
By Lynn A. Robinson, M.Ed.

1. MAKE YOUR INTUITION YOUR ALLY
How does your intuition speak to you? Do you receive
information in words, feelings, a body sensation? Do you
just know? Ask your intuition questions and pay attention
to the answers and act on the information you receive.

2. WHAT ARE YOU ENTHUSIASTIC ABOUT?
The root of the word enthusiasm is entheos. It literally
means "God Within." Just think, when you feel enthusiastic
about your dreams it means that God is speaking through you
and saying "yes" to your goals! The feeling of enthusiasm
is one of the ways your intuition speaks to you. What makes
you excited, happy, delighted? What do you look forward to
each day? Do more of it!

3. BE CLEAR ABOUT YOUR GOALS
We are often quite clear about what we don't want. Spend
time thinking about what you do want. What does your ideal
life look like? Draw pictures or cut out scenes from
magazines that illustrate the life you want to create. Write
in your journal, envision. Spend time each day imagining
your ideal life. Envision the details of that life. Imagine
you are living it now. What are you wearing? What are you
feeling? Who are the people around you? The power is within
your mind and heart to bring forth the new life you desire.

4. SPEND TIME IN PRAYER AND MEDITATION
Answers often come to life's questions through self-
reflection. Prayer and meditation are two ways we have of
slowing down enough to listen to the still, quiet voice of
our Higher Self. Remember that the answers don't always pop
into your mind fully formed as you meditate or pray. You
may find them slowly evolving into your consciousness over
several days or weeks as you ask for insight.

5. CREATE POSITIVE SELF TALK
Pay attention to what you tell yourself about yourself and
your life. If the general tone is hopeful and positive you
feel better and are more optimistic. William James said,
"The greatest discovery of my generation is that human
beings, by changing the inner attitudes of their minds,
can change the outer aspects of their lives." It's easier
to create a life you love when you give yourself affirmative
messages.

6. PRACTICE AN ATTITUDE OF GRATITUDE
Research has shown that the happiest people are the ones
who have gratitude for all that they have despite their
circumstances. You don't have to postpone happiness until
you have achieved all your goals. Joy is an inside job.
In the Talmud it says, "In the world to come each of us
will be called to account for all the good things God put
on this earth which we refused to enjoy." Learn to
appreciate the unfolding process of your life, not just
the realization of your dreams.

7. TAKE ACTION
People often get stuck because they can't figure out how to
get from Point A to Point Z. What is one thing you could do
that would be a next step? Take a class, talk to a friend,
read a book on a topic of interest, learn a new skill. Take
action on what feels exciting to you.

8. LOOK FOR COINCIDENCES AND SYNCHRONICITIES
It has been said that coincidences are God's way of
remaining anonymous. We often have serendipity occurring
in our lives as a way to show us we are on the right path.
As you trust your intuitive knowing you'll find these
synchronicities occurring more often.

9. KNOW THAT THERE WILL BE EBBS AND FLOWS
We often reach success through a series of ups and downs.
When you are in a "down" place and feeling stuck, know that
it won't last forever. Find some ways to enjoy your life
despite the lull and continue to focus on what you want.

10. TRUST IN DIVINE ORDER
Maybe you're beginning to feel as Mother Theresa once did
when she said, "I know God will not give me anything I can't
handle. I just wish that He didn't trust me so much." The
Universe has a perfect plan for your growth and unfolding as
a human being. As you learn to be guided by your intuition
you're beginning to act on this wisdom from the Universe.

Lake Superior State University Banished Words List

Lake Superior State University has been compiling this
list since 1976, choosing from nominations sent from
around the world. This year, words and phrases were
pulled from more than 5,000 nominations.

If you see a word on the list, you might want to refrain
from using it in your writing.

To see the list of "banished" words, visit the link below.

[The Lighter Side Of Life - Jokes & Humor]

A lady with a terrible fear of flying took along her bible
to help her relax. A man sat down beside her, noticed the
Bible, laughed and said "Say, you don't really believe
all that stuff in there do you?"

The lady replied, "Of course I do. It's the Bible."

The man said, "Well, what about when that guy was swallowed
by the whale?"

The lady replied, "You mean Jonah. Yes, I believe that, it's
in the Bible."

The man asked "Well, how do you suppose he survived all that
time inside the whale?" The lady said, "Well, I don't know,
but when I get to heaven, I'll ask God."

"What if he's not in heaven, but in hell instead?" the man
asked sarcastically.

Smiling, the lady replied "Then you can ask him!"

"Phishing - How Not To Get Caught!"
By Ralph Moore (c)2004

From the Word Spy web site: http://www.wordspy.com/
phishing (FISH.ing) pp. Creating a replica of an existing
Web page to fool a user into submitting personal, financial,
or password data. —adj. —phisher n.

The term phishing refers to Internet "scam artists" who use
sophisticated "lures" to "fish" for users' information, such
as user names, passwords, social security, or credit card
numbers and other private data.

A common method of tricking unsuspecting people, is to make
a complete copy of a company web site, down to the very
last detail, so that the visitor will enter their account
information, giving the "cracker" access to the account.

In fact, sophisticated "phishers" can get you to go their
fake web site, enter your user name and password info,
store it on their servers and then send you to the real web
site (logged in) so you will never know that you were on
their fake web site.

Well-known companies, like PayPal, Best Buy, eBay and even
Bank of America have had their web sites "cloned" and hosted
on servers other than their own.

Here are some ways to keep from getting "hooked" by this
Internet scam:

If you receive an email saying that there is a problem with
your account or asking you to login to do anything such as
make a change or update your information, DO NOT click the
link in the email.

Instead, open your web browser and go to your account as
you normally would to check the status of your account.
If the email really was from the legitimate company than
no harm has been done. If the email came from a "phisher",
then it's time to "blow the whistle" on the thief and put
a stop to their game.

If you are not sure about the email, go to the company web
site and use their contact page or notify them by phone.

Whenever you are purchasing anything online or otherwise
making changes to your accounts, always look for the lock
icon on your web browser's status bar. This will insure
that you have a secure transaction across the Internet.

Should you unwittingly provide any personal, financial or
other information, contact the bank, credit card or other
company immediately and let them know of your mistake and
be sure to change the password for your account.

If you suspect that you have received a "phishing" email,
contact the legitimate company through their web site or
by phone and forward a copy of the email to their fraud
department, so they can try to put a stop to the fraud.

You can also forward a copy of the email to uce@ftc.gov,
and filed a complaint with the state attorney general's
office or through the FTC at http://www.ftc.gov/ if you
want to get the government involved.

By being always on your guard and knowing about the tricks
that are in use on the Internet, you can avoid a costly
and painful experience and enjoy your time online.

[Ideas to inspire better communication]

When you double my number, I'm less than a score,
Half of my number is still less than four.
Add one to my double when bakers are near,
The days of the week are still greater it's clear.
What am I?
