		<description><![CDATA[I do it all the time. I click &#8220;remember me,&#8221; but does that little bugger do it? NO! Every time I go back to the page, I have to re-enter my information. I&#8217;m not overly paranoid about identity theft &#8211; maybe I should be, but I&#8217;m not. I joined AOL when it first &#8220;opened&#8221; when one&#8217;s username was limited to 7 characters and nobody cared how long your password was, whether it contained symbols, numbers or capital letters. Now, I&#8217;ve started a journal of usernames and passwords, because even my online tools to remember them mess it up&#8230;&#8230;..sometimes it makes me not want to visit the page! Such a shame we can&#8217;t go back to the Old America where we could leave our doors and computers unlocked.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t know why I awakened thinking of this today.  And during my caffeine injection whipped out a Hub Page article on it, Marketing to Baby Boomers &#8211; Don&#8217;t Be Surprised If They Ask for a P&#38;L Statement but obviously it has been on my mind.  Most of what I had to say is in the article, I suppose, but we are a generation of people who for the first time really challenged their elders and were determined we&#8217;d be forever young.  To many, that makes us brats &#8211; but we are the generation that brought you Bill Gates and Steve Jobs so don&#8217;t be too harsh on us.  Marketing to Boomers requires more than the dire warnings of the state of the economy and the flashy dollar bills on websites.  They are not going to go there.  If a Boomer is going to be an entrepreneur in his older years &#8211; he wants answers.  In depth answers and mentorship.  Since we do not realize we are not 35, we usually have no problem accepting that from those younger than us who understand the Internet and the techie stuff.  We want to learn, be involve and keep on doing it, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My little encounter with the Lyme disease tick triggered a series of events that have left me physically wiped out; nothing left.  Anybody hungry &#8211; call for a pizza! Oh, it&#8217;s breakfast time &#8211; oh well!  Mom left for Singapore&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;.I might as well have. Aside from sleeping and dealing with symptoms, it&#8217;s been a good time to slow down and really look at myself, where I am going, what I want, and to take time to learn, bolster myself for coming storms.  This is all part and parcel for success on the Internet, so they say &#8211; but I think it&#8217;s more than that.  It&#8217;s what it takes to be succesful in life.  To take these times when life absolutely FORCES you to stop, when you have no choice and use that time to recharge.  To recharge the body, soul and mind.  I&#8217;m afraid the relationships will have to come later because I haven&#8217;t been very communicative &#8211; physically unable to do so. So this has been a really great time.  There are so many blessings in absolutely eveything that happens to us, even if they appear &#8211; at the very least, inconvenient.  Sure, I hope that all the health [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I found this somewhere &#8211; can&#8217;t remember exactly where &#8211; but I thought it a good reason from a very successful man about making your life productive.  It&#8217;s not an ad for his new business, just some good advice from Donald Trump &#8211; a guy who has certainly &#8220;made it.&#8221; 1. RELENTLESSLY CONFRONT YOUR FEARS You can’t let fear &#8212; fear of the new, fear of growing old, fear of failure &#8212; settle into place in any part of your life. Fear has a way of making problems bigger than they are. The trick is to recognize your fears and then zap them with a problem-solving attitude, faith in yourself and hard work. Example: I owed billions of dollars in the early 1990s, and many people thought I was finished. Major newspapers were announcing my demise. The difference is that I didn’t believe that I was finished for one second, no matter what people thought. I simply refused to give in to the negative circumstances and kept working to overcome my challenges. Useful exercise: Rename your fears. Call them &#8220;concerns.&#8221; Just using a different word can affect your approach and reactions. &#8220;Fears&#8221; create blocks that will only hinder your creative [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t know how it happened, but for most of my work life I had a commute.  Not just any kind of commute &#8211; not I took on many long and winding roads to the office.  I&#8217;m not really sure how this happened, but  until I hung out my own shingle in a small country town, my lawyering days always included a few hours tacked on either end to get to and from the old homestead. When I was younger, distance didn&#8217;t seem to bother me much.  In fact, shortly after my former husband and I married, we purchased our first home in a beautiful country town in Massachusetts far outside of Boston where we both worked.  Maybe it was because of the timing &#8211; it was the housing boom of the &#8217;80s and housing was more affordable far outside major metropolitan areas.  Maybe we were just a little nuts &#8211; probably a combination of the two.  Nevertheless,  we were thrilled with our little country home and the peace and quiet that came with it after years of living in big cities.  This was before the children arrived, so we didn&#8217;t need to worry about being on time for daycare.  [...]]]></description>

Twitter is growing to be one of the top ranked pages on the Internet.  The world lives on Twitter and Facebook (witness what information got out about the Iran Elections)&#62; But are you using it wisely and do you know how.  Want some FREE and comprehensive training on it?  I&#8217;d be glad to help any way I can, but you can also run over and get FREE video training from an expert by CLICKING HERE!  Just sign up for a free account and you are on your way to a lot of knowledge. One of the problems wannabe marketers have is start up, and up front money.  Just a hint &#8211; did you know you can monetize your Twitter Profile?  That&#8217;s right.  You can allow someone to put an ad on your profile (you get to approve it first) and get paid to have it there!  Ah, the free market geniuses at work.  If you are interested in [...]]]></description>

It is never about your product, it&#8217;s about who you are as a person, and of course learning the &#8220;how-to&#8217;s.&#8221;  Having the learning curve somewhat behind me (I&#8217;ll always be learning and the Internet will always be changing), I simply want to offer help to any struggling marketers out there in any way I can&#8230;&#8230;no strings! Have a blessed, relaxing and happy Sunday Evening!]]></description>

You wake up on a Sunday morning 3 1/2 hours before Church b/c you want quality time on your computer.   2.  The first thing you check is Twitter to make sure the world hasn&#8217;t blown up.   3.  The next thing you check is Facebook and Skype to be sure your friends haven&#8217;t blown up.   4.  Next, you check your Aweber account to see how many people opted in overnight.   5.  Then you wonder if you could shoot a quick video before church, but decide that bedhead is bad marketing.   6.  The dogs want to go out, but you don&#8217;t notice they are there.   7.  You get made because you have to go to the bathroom and that&#8217;s going to interfere with your QC time on the computer.   8.  You wonder if you have time to write the article you woke up crafted in your head before the rest of the family demands attention.   9.  You check all your friends blogs to see what brilliance they&#8217;re up to that you&#8217;ve missed.   10.  You finally drag yourself away because you realize no waiter is going to bring you your coffee.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am always telling Boomer friends that it doesn&#8217;t matter if you only know how to point and click, you can learn and earn doing Internet marketing.  It&#8217;s a good day.  I&#8217;ve been up since 5:30, redesigned my primary opportunity website, updated my newly resurrected blog, followed all my new Twitter followers, and organized a few emails for a follow-up campaign in aweber.  Four years ago &#8211; I would have had a CLUE what I just said!  And now I have the privilege of teaching my Boomer friends how to do this and how to earn money online with a home based business that can last.  And so much of the learning is free &#8211; that&#8217;s what I keep posting on Facebook and Twitter.  So for any Baby Boomers out there looking into Internet marketing and wondering how the heck to get online (especially if you don&#8217;t understand what I am talking about in my first sentence, I am here to serve.  Good Day to all &#8212; off to church!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Your blog is the &#8220;brick and mortar&#8221; residence of your entire business, from which all else flows. It is Your nerve center, your home on the Internet. Without it &#8211; you are not in business. I learned this all too clearly when I &#8220;lost&#8221; my blog to cyberspace last week. It was something I knew on a certain level, but didn&#8217;t realize the magnitude of the loss until I tried to &#8220;go to work&#8221; and I realized my &#8220;office&#8221; was gone. The world of Internet marketing is not about your product, your company, the best this or that, it is about YOU, and you have to reside somewhere. Somewhere where people get to know and understand you, somewhere where you can add value to the Internet marketing and buying universe. Now, I am in the process of rebuilding my blog, which will be better than the last, I hope, but which will take time and has me falling a bit behind on my marketing and income goals. If you don&#8217;t have a blog in today&#8217;s Internet economy &#8211; a place where people can learn to know, like and trust you&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;you don&#8217;t have a business.
