Hey Guys,Do any of you remember? When people were selling Nokia Corp. like crazy? This happened about 2 years ago. The stock was at 22 and within 4 months it was down to 12. You were hearing in the news that Nokia was losing market share in europe. Their style of hand phones was outdated. SELL!, SELL!, SELL! This all was the cause for the manic selling.Go two years back and look at Nokia Corp. finances. Two years ago they had no debt, their free cashflow was huge, about 2,000,000,000 at all times. Their revenues were growing every year by billions and still is. Remember, when people said they were losing market share? Well, They were actually gaining market share, overall in the world. It was just in europe. Where they were losing a few percentage points of market share.I am telling this story becuase there is a lesson to be learned here. Do Your Own Homework. The news, reports, and etc. were saying stay away from nokia. While at the time I was trying
Soon enough, I found out that I had quite a number of beautiful experiences.
- There was a time when I was given 3 promotions in a year.
- I remembered the time when I sat with my friends watching the sun setting on the horizon.
- I recalled my first experience snorkeling and seeing the beautiful and colorful fishes under the sea... in spite of my fear of water.
- The day when I first saw my niece one hour after she was born.
When you can play back these memories and experiences, you will realize that you have had great times many times over.
Why rewind and play the sad and dis-empowering movies in your mind? Will it make you feel good?
If not discard them just as easy as throwing photographs that we do not wish to look at.
This is a mind’s game. We can decide what to do with our mind.
Richard Bandler stated that the brain is his favorite toy. Let’s make that ours too. We have them too don’t we?
5) Keep a journal.
This can be therapeutic. You can write down what you think and feel.
No one is going to correct your grammar. No one is going to argue about it. This is because no one is going to see it. It is yours.

Consumers have turned away from the artificially manufactured answers to diet and turned toward a more simple and honest answer in the cabbage soup diet pills. The times of artificial stimulants and laboratory engineered chemicals are over. The typical consumer has learned their lesson from the countless people before them who have suffered the disasters of artificial diet plans. The target="_blank">Cabbage Soup Diet pills are natural cabbage soup packed inside a tiny little pill. It's as simple as that. They have taken that good old cabbage soup that people have been using for decades to reduce their hunger and fill up their stomachs and they powdered it down int a tiny convenient capsule that can be taken easier and faster.Not only can you avoid the hassles of cooking soup all day and slowly slurping down each spoonful, you can still hold on to the age old natural remedy of the cabbage soup and avoid those nasty pharmaceutical stimulants that have been
The day came when I was handed the letter. Why did the company fire me? Was I not good enough?
It was a massive blow to my ego. My questions only brought back anger. I was not resourceful and I could not see any positive meaning to it.
As I thought about it longer, I became more angry and annoyed. Then the emotions turn into fear.
What can I do now? Who would employ me? At this age and with a lack of education, how could I get another job?
I was becoming an unendurable person. My relationship, which was already on the rocks suffered further.
I was no longer the person I used to be. I complained and whined. I lost the confidence in myself. I could not see myself in any other way but a "wimp".
I avoided friends and ignored and neglected my partner. There were no more constructive conversations between us. He was getting on well with her career and moving upwards.
And the more I saw him succeeding the more I felt bad about myself. I was ashamed of myself. I thought that I was not good enough for him anymore. Finally he has had it. He walked out of my life.
Not only have I lost my job. I also have lost someone whom I thought was the one for me. More resentment and self-pity came over me. I was angry with him. How could he leave me if he had loved me?
I was not only broke but also alone. I was so broke that I could not afford my own home.
The finance company repossessed my car. I had no material things left except my clothes in my luggage and a few books.
It has to take two crisis to make me wake up to my senses. I had to change immediately. That was the only choice I had.
Losing your self-confidence is bad. Losing your self-esteem is worse. Losing your self is a disaster. Until...
I decided to change...in my thinking.
I have to meet my basic need first, food and shelter. The company I went to offered lodging so I took the job that paid only a quarter of what I used to earn.
Alone and still broke...but this time I looked at what I had left.
Change does not come easy. Recovering your self-confidence and your self-esteem is an attitude and mindset that needs discipline.
You need to develop the disciplines that can boost your trust in yourself again.
1. Admit that you have messed up.
Whatever happened, has happened to someone else too. It is how you make out of it that matters.
You either let it go and move on or wallow in self-pity. If you had taken the second option as I did, you will realize that your life would be messier than when it started.
It is not too late. Admit your mistakes, forgive yourself and move on.
2. Write down realistic goals.
When your self-esteem plummets, it is tough to see bright, colorful pictures of yourself smiling at your achievements. Set several realistic goals to start with. For a start, these were some of my goals...
i) Put on 5kg. Lost that. I was looking very thin and gaunt for my height. I need to lift my self-image.
ii) Cut smoking to 10 cigarettes a day. I can’t afford more anyway
iii) Read 1 hr daily. Got to feed my mind with something positive.
iv) Take 20minutes walk in the park a day. I needed some fresh air and away from the cramp abode of mine.
v) Keep a journal. I shunned friends so at least I could use this to pour out my feelings.
vi) Record my activities. I must make full use of my time.
vii) Pray and meditate. Somehow, I know I am not alone.
I worked on them and made certain that I followed the disciplines. It felt good to strike out each activity daily.
And when the good feelings enter again, I added more goals to my list. Slowly but surely, I began to feel good about myself again.
3) Interrupt the negative self-talks and critics.
Your self-talks will not stop and mostly they are negative and criticizing. This is a challenge especially when you are trying and working hard on yourself.
Learn to listen to them. Catch them "in the act". Remove, cancel, and delete. Do whatever within your power to fight back.
It’s funny how you could move away from people who criticize you. At times you can even tell them to shut their mouth up and you can’t even tell your voices within to leave you alone.
You need to be aware. You must listen. Then when you hear, you could either so gently tell the voices to leave you alone.
Or, if the voices are softly whispering, tell them firmly to get out. Consciously now, speak something out loud or within yourself that you are worthy.
However and whatever you say, feed your ears and your mind with encouraging words like "I love myself". Isn’t it better than hearing it say over and over again how hopeless you are?
4) Remember and recall successful and positive experiences.
If you really try, you will be able to remember a few of your success. I sat down in a "relaxed mode" and at first have to force myself to think of one experience that I was proud of.
Soon enough, I found out that I had quite a number of beautiful experiences.
- There was a time when I was given 3 promotions in a year.
- I remembered the time when I sat with my friends watching the sun setting on the horizon.
- I recalled my first experience snorkeling and seeing the beautiful and colorful fishes under the sea... in spite of my fear of water.

A health savings account is a tax-free savings account similar to an individual retirement account. It is designed specifically to pay for medical expenses. These expenses are wholly tax-deductible for self-employed account holders. Cash from these accounts can be withdrawn effortlessly by using a check or debit card. It facilitates payment of routine medical expenditures with tax-free money.President Bush signed the new health savings account legislation on December 8, 2003. The new policies are designed to cater to modern needs. Even though some features of the plan are the same as the initial one, there have been some significant modifications. These include lower deductibles and options wherein up to 100% of the amount deducted may be contributed to a health savings account. Moreover, the new plan is designed in a manner wherein almost everyone qualifies to be an account holder.Substantial everyday medicinal expenditure may be paid for by a low-cost, high

Do you have a bad habit you’d like to kick? Whether it’s overeating, interrupting conversations or quitting before you reach your goal, bad habits are learned and they can be unlearned. In this article I will outline a plan for success with seven daily steps to get started and help you stay on track.One way to motivate yourself is to focus on who you want to be and why. Why do you want to stop your bad habit? Why do you want to change your behavior? How will you benefit? Focusing on what’s positive about change will help you hang in there during tough times. You may also want to think about who you DON’T want to be and why. Perhaps your self-defeating behavior is incongruent with your inner self-image. Think of the legacy you want to leave behind or what type of person you want to be when you’re 30, 50 or 70. Where do you see yourself in 5-10 years? The actions you take today will determine who you become tomorrow.If you’ve made it far enough in life to learn

Suntan means browning the skin by exposing the body to ultraviolet radiation of the sun. This color change of the skin is due to the release of the pigment called melanin into the skin's cells. Melanin is produced by melanocytes and it protects the body from absorbing excess solar radiation.People sun tan today for a variety of reasons -- to counter depression, to improve physical beauty and sexual attractiveness, and to improve the health of the skin. Recent studies have estimated that over 22 million Americans suntan every year.When someone gets a suntan, the color of the skin changes when the rays of the sun damage the dead cells found in the skin. An ideal tanning session should not last too long, as overexposure to the sun may lead to melanoma and other damages. Eyes can be damaged if proper sunglasses are not used. To overcome these problems, various products are now available, and they produce the same result as a suntan without exposing the body to the

The internet is an animal that feeds on content. Blogs, it turns out, are an excellent source of internet protein and because of that, an excellent way to boost traffic to your web site. Consider this scenario…You have a web site that sells certain goods and services. You’ve done the search engine thing, but your rankings haven’t changed significantly. You’ve done some advertising, but the competition for keywords for your goods and services is just too high and, besides, you just don’t have the budget to go head-to-head with your competitors.So you start a blog. On your blog you begin to complain about how unfair it is that your products can’t take their place in the market because they’re really good products. In your writing you regularly crosslink to your web site products pages to illustrate your point. You submit your blog site to some blog search engines (e.g. findingblogs.com). You’ve become so empowered by the vehemence of your arguments that y

No one is going to correct your grammar. No one is going to argue about it. This is because no one is going to see it. It is yours.
Why let those words keep voicing out in your head. Write them out. Say what you want to say.
And maybe laugh at some of them when you sit back and read them many months later.
Write down your activities too. How much time did you spend sleeping? What time did you get up?
What was the first thing you saw when you got up? Whom did you meet today and how long did you use your time for socializing?
How many push-ups did you do today? What ideas came to your mind today? What have you learned at work? What can you do to improve your income?
6) Read and listen.
When I first started out again, I did not have many friends. My weekends were quiet. There were moments when I dreaded just the thought of it.
I did not have many books to read and I did not have much money to buy them. So I spent my time at the public library.
Reading motivational and inspiration books helped me especially at those times when I was down and out.
I read and read. It has kept me inspired and my interest in other subjects has broadened.
After a while I started to listen to motivational tapes. I fed my mind. I was determined to make my life work.
7) Pray.
When you are down and out, and you think that no one is there for you, think again. As the saying goes, "you are invisibly being watched over".
