Did you really get what you wanted for Christmas?

Article Overview: Giving yourself the best Christmas gift

Did you really get what you wanted for Christmas?

Did you really get what you wanted for Christmas better yet did you really give the gifts you wanted to this Christmas? No, it is not all about what you get. There is something to be said for being able to make a thousand dollar donation to the food bank. There is something to be said for being able to sponsor ten kids in need. There is something to be said for giving your spouse a Tiffany & Company diamond collection. There is something to be said for giving yourself that ridiculously expensive sports car why because you can.

If you’re thinking to yourself, ya right, sure in what life? I just jumped thousands more into debt with this Christmas. Many are in that spot this year. Many have been there for years. So buy yourself a gift that allows you to do “there is something to be said for.”

There is something to be said for people I know that have gone from waiting tables, bouncing in night clubs and selling cars, working at Midas muffler, twenty something, thirty, forty, fifty and sixty something to work from home and give the gifts they want to give.

Give yourself the gift of your own home based business. You may have tried MLM in the past you may be struggling with the business you have now. Give yourself this 30-dollar gift patidoux.buildingonabudget.comlearn it, use it, and earn from it. Thousands are making money from home you can too. Yes I make a few bucks from you helping yourself but it is not about me, it is about you and your ability to give the gifts you what to give for Christmas 2010.

The people that learn and use what is in that 30 dollar gift you can give to yourself, are the ones that in 2009 said go ahead open it up with a sparkle in their eye.

Merry Christmas everyone! - I'm just waiting for my son to wake up to start our Christmas traditions and I wanted to drop a quick note here to thank everyone for your support of the forums. We've have an exciting year and hopefully we can reach and help even more entrepreneurs in 2011! I hope you enjoy your families and have a fantastic holiday break... and then get ready to kick some butt with your business in 2011! Merry Christmas everyone!
Being generous has its rewards! - My friend wants to go around the streets on Christmas night giving homeless people $20 bills. Maybe I'll tell him to start a fundraiser, find a few sponsors and hold an event instead? It could be for everyone who don't have a families to be with during Christmas? They can all get together on Christmas day and have some fun and get to know each other. (sort of like a little family?) It probably sounds better in theory though, lol.
Re: Moderators on vacation - Off on my Christmas holidays with my family later today! Actually, we are flying to England and have been watching BBC World News reports about Heathrow struggling to cope with the snow... Hope the trains manage to run on Christmas Eve... I probably won't appear on the forum very often until around 5th January, DV... Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year everybody! David H
Re: What are reasons to stay in touch with your customers? - To remind them of a holiday for which they may want to buy a gift from your business and give to the person (such as Mother's day or Christmas). Although I've never done it, I've heard that off holidays (such as Memorial Day) for which we don't think of getting a card on, are the best ones to send them on so they don't get lost in all the other Christmas or Easter cards people are sending at the typical times. I don't know if that's what you're looking for or not. That's all I can think of right now.
Favorite Christmas movies - Back when us kids were young (my parents had 3), my mom, sister and I would watch White Christmas every Christmas. (My dad and brother were never interested.) Now the rest of the family is scattered, and only I live close to my parents. We got away from the tradition, but now my mom and I watch [i:1h8kfk2v]White Christmas[/i:1h8kfk2v] again. (Just as every Halloween we watch Arsenic and Old Lace.) I also like the 1970 musical [i:1h8kfk2v]Scrooge[/i:1h8kfk2v], starring Albert Finney, much better than any version done since! I do have to say I've never liked[i:1h8kfk2v] It's A Wonderful Life[/i:1h8kfk2v]. He spends all his life having his hopes and dreams shattered, feeling miserable, and its only at the end of his life that he can look back and realize how many friends he has, etc. But that doesn't change the fact that up until that point he was miserable!
