Successful Living Part 3 - The Nine Universal Laws of Life
A few weeks ago while doing some research I came
across these 9 Universal Laws from Jeff Herring and decided to include them in
my Successful Living series. From the 'Law of
Balance’ to the ‘Law of 10.000 Monsters’ I
cherish them all.
1. The Law of Balance
I got an email from a wise friend the other day who had this to say,'Whenever I
am out of balance in one area of my life, I usually end up bingeing, (going to
excess) in some other area of my life.' Even sunshine burns if you get too
much.
2. The Law of Competition
There are many times when competition is an extremely healthy thing. There are
other times, however, when it can get in our way. Because there will always be
people that don't do as well as us and there will always be people who do
better than us, the danger is to feel either arrogant or inferior, neither of
which is a very useful emotion. One answer is to be in competition with
yourself. This simply means to commit to doing better and better in each day.
As Colonel Potter said to Hawkeye on an episode of M*A*S*H, 'The only person
you need to do better than is yourself, and that's a big enough challenge.'
3. The Law of QTIP
Here's an instant stress buster & perspective changer from professional
speaker Tim O'Brien:'Quit Taking It Personally.'
4. The Law of Perspective
Author Richard Back said,'Perspective: use it or lose it.' Losing
perspective is one of the quickest ways to lose your way in life. On the other
hand, using your perspective, even seeing a different perspective is a most
effective tool.
5. The Law of Stress
Believe it or not, we all need a little stress in our lives. Too little, and
there is no motivation for change. Too much, and we begin to shut down and get
overwhelmed. It's important to know your optimal level of stress and then do
all the necessary things to keep your stress in balance.
6. The Law of Passion
The happiest people I know are those that are passionate about something in
their lives. Even happier people get to earn their living pursuing their
passion. What's your passion? How could it support you?
7. The Law of Freud
I've never been a big fan of Freud. At the same time, he did have this useful
thing to say: 'To be happy, we all need someone to love, something to do,
and something to hope for.'
8. The Law of Hope
Never, ever, never give up hope. Hope for the future, in and of itself, keeps
us moving in the right direction.
9. The Law of 10,000 Monsters
One of my favorite change stories is called 'The Room of 10,000 Monsters'. In
this room, all your worst fears, anxieties and nightmares are played out in
front of you as if they were real.
You walk in and close the door behind you. There is no handle on the inside of
the door. The only door with a handle is across the room. If you can walk
across the room and reach the door, you will reach Nirvana. (Not the rock
group, but happiness and contentment.)
You have to go by yourself, with only two pieces of advice: The first is no
matter what you see, hear or feel, remember that it's not real, it's just taken
from your own imagination.
The second piece of advice is that no matter what you see, hear, or feel, keep
your feet moving, and you will get to the other side. The moral of the
story: keep your feet moving
with my best wishes for your success,
Christiane Pohl

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.
Books for Women Entrepreneurs
- There's a thread for good books in the Resources folder, but it doesn't target books for businesswomen particularly, so I figured I'd start such a thread here.
It doesn't matter how successful you are in your business - it's always possible to learn something new.
In subsequent posts I give Table of Contents and brief descriptions for various titles - most of them devoted to the businesswoman - and sometimes a review. If anyone else has read a review, or has read the book and found it useful, please comment!

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.
