5 Steps to Creating A Successful Satisfying Life
Dream BIG -- Often, our dreams are so reserved, so moderate that they lack true inspiration. They fail to motivate us toward action or even long term focus. By setting grand, almost unimaginable dreams and goals we can tap into a larger source of creativity and self-confidence that makes our short-term goals highly achievable.
Know Your Priorities – This is a tall order because knowing your priorities implies that you “know yourself”… you have done your work and understand what makes you tick. You honor your values, know your strengths and are moving at least toward a path that serves you. Once you have all of the self-knowledge, priorities become simple.
Tap Into Your Instincts – Remember that moment just before you accepted the most miserable job of your career? Did you have to swallow hard, push past your fear/sense of dread? 99% of the people we work with say that remember those inklings, “gut” feelings…particularly at times when they were about to make a big mistake. Our advice is START LISTENING to the wisdom of your internal self. It speaks through our emotions rather than or brains. The next time you have one of those gut level reactions try spending some quite time with it rather than dismissing it immediately.
Focus On The Positive – Most of us have grown accustom to focusing on what is missing…our lack of something. We find it easier to make excuses for not having a thing, situation or relationship rather than spending time in earnest expectation. The next time you find yourself experiencing negative emotions…take a moment to consciously stop the judging and shift your thoughts to something more pleasant. Within a week you can literally begin to reprogram your attention to more positive thoughts.
Believe – It sounds simple enough. Believe in your dreams, in possibilities in yourself, but this can be the most difficult step of all for some people. The challenge here is for us to embrace the moment. Wherever we are, to know that “life is good, and exactly as it should be.” Realize that by shifting our focus, taking a step our world begins to change. We have the amazing power to co-create our experience and have every tool necessary to create a successful and satisfying life.

The Second Life Platform
- Greetings! I'm not sure how many of you have heard of or are sensitive to Second Life and its related entities. However, Second Life is a fantastic platform to mimmick real life business operations in a real currency based economy. There are plenty of successful stories for creative individuals, but I'd highly suggest doing your research and appreciating Second Life for what it is, and what it isn't.

Hi JBunion,
I've heard about the site. So are you currently a member? And more importantly, have you tried to open a store front in that virtual world?
Re: Charge what you're worth
- [quote="Tami Szabo":292ze3jd]People will pay you what you ask. Very few will ever up the price. You are the one who decided what you are worth. The key is that we believe our services are worth the price we are asking.[/quote:292ze3jd]
Hi Tami,
You're absolutely right. In "Think and Grow Rich", Jessie B. Rittenhouse says "For Life is a just employer, He gives you what you ask, But once you have set the wages, Why, you must bear the task. I worked for a menial's hire Only to learn, dismayed , That any wage I had asked of Life, Life would have willingly paid" (Napoleon Hill 35).
I think the same can be said when setting prices on eBay or Craigslist, especially when people are trying to haggle you.
