How Secure is Security?

Most people avoid doing what they would really like to do because they don't want to jeopardize their security in life. In reality, how secure can one be, even if you don't take chances?

Every day, people will experience accidents (personal and auto), come down with unusual diseases, lose jobs or their personal fortunes, and a number of other catastrophic events that are totally unpredictable and unavoidable. My point is very simple, "Life has no real security." As a matter of fact, the major purpose of every person is to experience the unknown. By going into new, uncharted territories, you will grow into more of a person who is living a full life.

Security is definitely underrated and highly misunderstood. If a person is apprehensive about doing something, danger is still present in that individual's life. Apprehension can actually produce more danger than the perceived danger.

The famous nutritional advocate, Dr. Cindy Gale stated so perfectly, "True security comes from feeling confident in one's abilities and the choices one makes."

As the late Helen Keller once said, "Security is a superstition-it does not exist in nature. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure."

Instead of obsessing with the purpose of "security," become your true self. Whatever that is will be much more secure than living life as an imposter. The person who lives a smaller life, because he is scared to experience his real self, is actually a fraud. This person will never achieve security if he is living a falsehood.

It takes courage to grow up and turn out to be who you really are meant to be. Decide today to become your real self. There are some simple guidelines to follow that will help you in the discovery process:

1. Get to know what you like and what you don't like. The only way you will ever know if you like or dislike anything is by experiencing it yourself. Try to be open minded and courageous enough to try many different things.
2. Learn to accept the fact that you will need help in discovering your self and then more help in making it a reality. Every person can achieve things in a fraction of the time, if she is willing to ask others for direction and feedback. It takes courage to ask others for help.
3. Make a plan. Once you discover what you want, make a plan to achieve it. The more detailed your plan for any desire, the more likely it will be achieved. Be courageous in facing the tasks at hand and write out a complete workable plan-of-action.
4. Take action on your plan. Too many people spend a great deal of time planning and then rewriting their plans, yet never get around to taking action toward anything. Other potentially successful people just think about what they will do or want to do in the future. Be courageous enough to take action on the plan you make. You can always adjust your plan-of-action by adding or taking away some of the action steps. One thing is for sure, "No action will always result in no progress."
5. Be courageous. If you aren't courageous enough to take a chance on things to live the life you desire, you are bound to what you currently have. Courage is like a muscle, the more you use it, the stronger it gets. Exercise your courage muscle regularly and you will experience more life in so many areas.

As you practice the above guidelines, and you begin to experience a new life, please continue to share this information with others in order for them to do the same. Knowledge is only valuable when it is applied and shared with others.

For your essential tools in your discovery process, please visit our websites and discover the simple technologies available for improving your life and achieving your dreams. Actually, this could be #6 Guideline above: Be courageous enough to experience our Life Technologies and see why so many people have claimed these processes are what caused them to begin living their dream life.

Regardless of what you do, "Do It Now" and when the going gets rough (there will always be some rough times along the path to anything worthwhile), "Keep Going!" When you persevere and avoid procrastination toward the things that will bring a better life, the more security you will experience in the end.

So, security is really a pay-out to those individuals who are courageous enough to live their real lives and accomplish their dreams. Ponder on this writing for only a short while and then get down to applying the above guidelines to your life.

Until I'm blessed with your presence again, I am

In loving service,

Dr. Michael J. Duckett

Re: Obama Wants Social Security for Illegals - [quote="wizzymi":2qb0dt9r]This monring I got a mail from the newswatch magazine I subscribed for that: Obama Wants Social Security for Illegals! Millions of illegal aliens in the U.S. Barack Obama’s plan gives a driver’s license to any illegal who wants one. But that’s not all. Obama’s plan gives illegals social security benefits and raises taxes for his health care plan to cover them. Who pays? You do. Driver’s licenses and government benefits for illegals. Higher taxes for us. That’s Obama’s plan. Obama. Too radical. Too risky. The National Republican Trust PAC is responsible for the content of this advertisment. In think this is a political propaganda, in order to discredit the candidancy of Obama. Or will it be true? What impact do you think will have on entrepreneurs in america?[/quote:2qb0dt9r] Sounds like his idea to give "tax breaks" to people who don't even pay taxes. But, he finally changed his answer to that one and supposedly his website says that there will be some employment requirements for these supposed "tax breaks". There appear to be plenty of potential reprecussions for entrepreneurs with Obama's plans. There isn't enough money in the Social Security system now - giving more away to people who haven't paid into it could be the final nail in that coffin. Shri
Re: HOw to market a B2B consulting company - How about providing a white paper on Common security holes (only mention the ones that the prospect can easily and inexpensively fix themselves). Towards the end explain that there are other greater security flaws that exist and that you provide a "Free Security Consultation and Report". They could use this report to get cheaper quotes but you are getting so much more... you get face time with the company and get to build rapport with them. I know of a company here in Toronto that does Energy Audits on your home and provide you with a report on ways you can save energy- they also also offer to fix it for you through their suppliers. they had a story run on them on Earth Day this year and they were bombarded with over 200 calls in one day to have these audits done. The audits are done for free. You could write up a shocking story on Security and holes that exist within businesses today and submit this story to the newspapers business edition or to a Trade Magazine written for the industry you are trying to serve. Most journalists may pick up this article and feature it or interview you directly. Also, I would redesign your site to be more Information-based to educate potential prospects (how to solve common security issues) rather than it being all about the company - people are more interested in solving their problem and often aren't searching the internet for a particular company by name unless it is well established. So give them juicy information freely. note: When I first heard this idea of giving away free information about solving a problem I was hesitant to use it in my web design business. I gave it a try anyways and the amazing part was that even the easy inexpensive things I advised them they could fix in their websites they offered to pay me to do it for them - from there I was able to upsell them on greater improvements. I've since sold this company - but it was fun!
