Add You - A Certain State Of Mind
Try as I have, I can only think of two things that can or have made our lives better here on Earth as a result of our space program. Those items are the invention of the fuel cell and global satellite communications. All of the rest of the space program is nothing more than a huge waste of taxes, and that includes that piecemeal international space station and our desire to travel to other places in the universe.You see, the fuel cell produces electricity that can power almost all of our transportation equipment and satellites, together with cel
If you are making changes to the way you think about yourself and others, you will need to work on it daily. Actively practice supportive self-talk, which involves those voices that you hear in your head when you are planning to do something that may be a bit challenging. If the slightest hint of negativity creeps in, I want you to say a loud “STOP!” (out loud or in your head – you choose) and I want you to turn that thought around. So “I’ll never be able to do that in a month of Sundays” will become “It may take me a little time, but with the right help, I am cer
The common Rosacea treatments depend on which of the four different kinds of Rosacea you are trying to treat.For the most common type of Rosacea that features the constant redness in the face and the red lines under the skin, doctors will most commonly prescribe antibiotics. Most of these are given in pill form and not in a face cream since Rosacea tends to make the face too sensitive to apply creams.If you have had this form of Rosacea for a long time, the red blood vessels under the facial skin might not go away even after successful an

I received an e-mail from someone this week in which they referred to ‘a state of mind rather than a reverse of ideas’. It made me think about how important our state of mind is when we are attempting something new, or even something not so new. If we are in a negative state of mind, we are almost certainly setting ourselves up for disappointment, however, having a positive frame of mind gives us a great advantage in facing new challenges, and, while it doesn’t guarantee success, it certainly gives us the heads up!
What is your state of mind like today? Are you ready to face anything that comes your way with a belief in your ability to cope, or are those unhelpful voices in your head telling you that you are useless and you won’t be able to get by? If you are in the latter state of mind then I have one word for you – STOP! Stop those unsupportive, discouraging words from taking a hold in your head and replace them with ones that encourage and prop you up. One thing is certain; you are in control of your state of mind, so choose to have an outstanding, uplifting one.
How do you think about yourself in relation to your goals? Do you see yourself as someone who is capable and able to achieve everything you set out to do, or do you sabotage your progress by thinking of yourself as less than that? Today is the day that you will either start to build on the fantastically positive attitude that you have – or - you will change your thinking and start to support yourself with encouraging thoughts and language. “I can do this.” “I am capable of achieving this.” This is not to say that everything will be in your reach, but you will be certain that you will do your utmost to accomplish all that you can.
Does having a negative state of mind give you an excuse not to do certain things? What have you been putting off that you really need to do? It’s time to reexamine your reasons for not getting them done. What is stopping you? Is it your thoughts concerning the actions, or is there something more tangible that is getting in your way? What needs to happen first? A shift in thinking, or something else? Having an upbeat attitude will place you in a position of strength. Be your own best friend and support yourself. As the advert says ‘You’re worth it!’

Legend has it that the 4th Earl of Sandwich placed his meat between two pieces of bread because it allowed him to continue playing cards while eating without getting his cards sticky from his greasy hands -- hence the name “sandwich.”If you will pardon the pun, if your advertising sales are not a sandwich you are missing the bread and butter of the sales process.Each of the most popular sandwich making salads (tuna, chicken salad, egg and ham, etc.) can be served on a bed of lettuce, a salad, or between slices of bread, a sandwich.

Hiring someone new to work in your business is one of the most critical decisions a business owner makes, although it is not always given the justice it deserves. If a position is vacant, or additional staff are needed, recruitment decisions are often driven by the pressure to get someone in quickly, rather than waiting for the best person to fill the job. Lack of proper and systematic recruitment process can also result in a high cost to the business.The direct and indirect costs of this recruitment process are many, and have been estimated to

As time passes, the price of everything goes up from homes to gas to just about anything you can think of. One notable exception has been the cost of buying term life insurance and premiums are expected to continue to fall.Term life insurance policies are generally the cheapest you can find on the market and they represent a very good deal for most borrowers. The last ten years or so has seen the deal get much better as premium rates have fallen like a rock. So, what could be behind this somewhat illogical drop in prices?There are many fa

Hey, no-one’s forcing you to be a positive thinker! Just a thought though – what are you actually gaining from having a negative state of mind? What is the pay-off? It’s worth considering….
Get creative with your thinking. This is where the fun starts! You know those unsupportive, discouraging words I mentioned earlier. Play with them. Turn them around and create new encouraging, confident words that will be a pleasure to say and hear. Let your state of mind become a state of being. Each day you have the chance to start something new, to be something new. All it takes is a shift in thinking. Who and what do you want to be today? I choose the cheerful, optimistic me over the downright miserable one every time. How about you?
Thoughts. Attitude. All internal, but, oh, so powerful! Like many of these things the cost is not monetary, but one of effort and application. If you are already a positive person, then I applaud you and hope that you continue to sustain and build on that. If you are not, however, then try it for a while and see how you like it. Make the effort to be positive, even if only for a day at a time. You never know, that certain state of mind might just grow on you!
