How To Create Brain Sparks

About 40 minutes into a 4 mile walk, which takes me 57 minutes, I started thinking about a new product. The more I thought about the new product the faster I walked. One of my newsletter subscribers said he liked my newsletters when they included motivational quotes.

Well I've been collecting them for years and the idea I got during this early morning brisk walk was to put them into a book. Then as I started walking faster I got another brain spark - why not put each one on a separate poster in the book.

The book would be delivered in an eBook format as a PDF file which means you could print each quote as a separate page, as a poster using your color printer.

Well, you'll learn more about my Inspirational, Educational, Informational, and Motivational Quote Book as soon as it's completed.

The real purpose of this newsletter is to remind you that you can get some of your best ideas when you're exercising.

Hey, I'm not the first entrepreneur to grease the creative process with robust exercise.

I read that Steven King, the famed author, runs several miles every day.

Benjamin Franklin swam the Thames River daily.

Marie and Pierre Curie often took long bike rides.

Stephen Ramocki, has done research which shows the brain functions better after exercise and the effect can last for several hours.

Ramocki also says, "To function optimally, each person's brain needs a physically fit body." Who can argue with the logic of that?

The next time you want to create some brain sparks go for a long and fast walk, a bike ride, or a long run.

It's great for your health and it can be good for your business too!

Gotta go - it's time for another 4 mile walk.


F.M. Alexander once said, "Every man, woman, and child holds the possibility of physical perfection: it rests with each of us to attain it by personal understanding and effort."

Re: 4 Ways to Go From Employee to Entrepreneur Re: 4 Ways to Go From Employee to Entrepreneur - The situation that Wezi describes is more the norm than the exception. I have spoken to many "entrepreneurs-to-be" that have a desire to work for themselves but can't overcome the fear of making that critical leap. The truth of the matter is, if fear is preventing you from moving forward with your own business you need to overcome that fear first. To do this, try this exercise: 1. Write down as many detailed reasons why you are DISSATISFIED with remaining in your job until you retire. E.g., it won't let you achieve the lifestyle you desire; you are sick of commuting an hour each day; etc. 2. Write down in as much detail as possible your VISION of what your life will be like once you have your own business and you are fully engaged in it. Enjoy this step. 3. Create a list of the action steps you need to actually complete to get things rolling. What do you need to do first? Second? Third? Create a step by step plan. These three steps all work together to overcome any resistance you may feel towards making a major change in your career. If after these exercises, you are still too afraid, look at what you have written down. Chances are one of the three forces for change (dissatisfaction, vision, or first steps) are not yet strong enough to overcome your fear. Perhaps, once you really thought about it, things aren't really that bad in your current career, etc.... Hope this helps.
Ways To Improve Your Alexa Ranking 11-15 Ways To Improve Your Alexa Ranking 11-15 - 11. Create a webmaster tools section on your website. This is a magnet for webmasters who will often revisit your website to gain access to the tools. Aaron Wall’s webpage on SEOTools is a very good example. 12. Get Dugg or Stumbled. This usually brings massive numbers of visitors to your website and the sheer amount will have a positive impact on your Alexa Rank. Naturally, you’ll need to develop link worthy material. 13. Use PayperClick Campaigns. Buying advertisements on search engines such as Google or Exact Seek will help bring in Traffic. Doubly useful when your ad is highly relevant to webmasters. 14. Create an Alexa category on your blog and use it to include any articles or news about Alexa. This acts as an easily accessible resource for webmasters or casual search visitors while helping you rank in the search engines. 15. Optimize your popular posts. Got a popular post that consistently receives traffic from the search engines? Include a widget/graph at the bottom of the post, link to your Alexa post or use Alexa redirection on your internal URLs.
Q&A: What are your tips for creating a successful blog? Q&A: What are your tips for creating a successful blog? - Q: What are your tips for creating and maintaining a successful blog? Hi Ayaan - here are 7 suggestions for you: 1) Focus on a niche - pick an area that you're an expert in and are interested in and stick to that niche. 2) Create pillar content - write a number of posts that are evergreen and interesting. If a new visitor checks out your blog it should be easy to quickly find your pillar content and get them interested in reading more. 3) Create a list - give an incentive to readers to subscribe to your blog by entering their email address. This way you can turn one time visitors into lifetime readers. 4) Have a regular posting schedule - bloggers often post like crazy when they first start a blog and then their schedule fades. Don't start with too many posts and create a schedule that you can't stick with. 5) Build linkbait posts - timely posts that use infographics, top 7/10/50 lists, newsworthy topics, etc can generate a lot of attention and links to your blog. 6) Tweet it out - whenever you post, tweet about it so your followers know to check out your new entry. 7) Engage other bloggers - comment on other blogs that are in your niche. If you focus on adding value then the bloggers will notice you and their readers will also click through to your site. Good luck!
