Can You Really Use Tumble to Make Money Online

Tumblr, is a bit like the new kid on the block – everyone want to meet them, but no one is really sure what they will be like, how they will fit into their current environment, and whether they will want to get to know them better.

If you do nothing else this month, take some time to learn about Tumblr, because it truly is one of the easiest ways to make money online.

Blogging has quickly become one of the most effective ways to make money. That’s because there is so much flexibility within the concept of blogging. Tumblr changes the way we blog in that it is a micro blogging site, which means your messages are shorter.

This means they can be more concise. It’s long been proven that visitors are more likely to read shorter messages than longer messages.

Tumblr allows you to create short blog posts, post pictures, audios, videos, links, and more. Try to stay on topic, because you will build a much bigger following and people are more likely to stay with you. For example, if you sell Diet Solution A, then talk about it, the benefits, the risks, how to lose weight, how to exercise effectively, etc.

Share pictures that are crazy and memorable. Don’t wonder off topic and start talking about the new Kia Rio or holiday destinations (unless they are related to losing weight), or you will start to lose your momentum and people with fall away from following you.

If you have an affiliate product you are selling, you can easily work it into your Tumblr posts. If you don’t have a product yet, then it’s time to find one. Perhaps you have a brick and mortar store, then use Tumblr to create interest in that business and make sure you post often.

Maybe you have a service based business, such as designing websites, then spend your time helping your visitors understand what’s needed to be successful with your web page. Those are just some examples.

It doesn’t really matter what it is you are selling as long as you stay on target and are patient.

Tumblr offers an opportunity to generate revenue in a way that’s simple and effective. It’s even easier than some of the other social networking sites where you have similar opportunities. Many have been successful already, even though Tumblr really is in its infancy stage. Perhaps they would like to keep this their secret.

Chapter 2:

That’s three not so common ways you can generate revenue using Tumblr. Before you start thinking about earning money with your Tumblr account, you need to focus on building up as many followers as possible and we are not just talking any follower but quality ones that will read your blogs.

In addition, the majority of advertising companies will reject your application if it’s a new blog. They don’t want to take a risk that you could ruin their business because you don’t have any track record, so it’s better to wait until you are more established.

Keep in mind just how powerful the theme you choose to use on your Tumblr is. It’s really your personality put to paint, so consider this when you are picking your theme. Who do you want to be? What do you want your theme to say about you?

The next time you are blogging in Tumblr, you should consider trying one or more of the ways that you can earn money on your blog. Turn Tumblr into a business where you can love what you are doing to earn money. In fact, what are you waiting for? Why not start today?

Chapter 3:

Incorporating Tumblr in Your Social Media Marketing

If your business is hoping to expand their business reach with some new opportunities, then Tumblr is the tool you should be thinking about incorporating into your social marketing.

If you are able to provide useful content that others would find informative so that it captured the attention of customers and surfers alike, Tumblr is an excellent venue for you to broadcast that information.

Tumblr is a free micro blogging service that is also a social network that comes with an audience of over 6.5 million users build into it and it continues to grow.

Many won’t even have heard about your company, they will never have read your blog or visited your website or followed you on Facebook. But Tumblr gives you the opportunity to hear about you and go that extra step and find out more about you.

With the more than 6.5 million users, there are more than 1.5 billion page views monthly on the 17 million blogs and every week that number grows by 400 million.

There just doesn’t seem to be any slowing down either.

Think of your Tumblr page as your site on steroids. It acts as a warehouse for information about your company. But unlike a blog or website which can be somewhat stagnant with its information, instead it’s constantly changing and being updated.

Its purpose is to create chatter that goes on all day long every day, to allow for creative expression and to invite dialogue with the people in your audience.
Tumblr can be an extremely powerful arsenal in your social marketing toolbox and yet, far too often, it is overlooked or not used to generate the best value. When you create constant Tumblr chatter you will find that your Tumblr traffic begins to grow exponentially.

Introduction

What Is Inflation?

Inflation is an economic term that refers to a general rise in the price of goods and services in an economy. A rise in prices causes fiat currencies to lose purchasing power.

Central banks measure inflation by calculating the rise in the average price of a basket of goods and services. Because prices are a function of supply and demand, all else being constant, an increase in the money supply (i.e., greater demand) can increase the general prices of goods and services.

The inflation rate is a proxy for understanding how much the average household’s cost of living rises per year. Inflation attempts to quantify how much more it costs to buy everyday goods, such as gas, groceries, hygiene products, and other common consumer goods costs relative to how much they cost in the past.

Inflation seems harmless when under control. However, it causes an insidious drain on the wealth of the consumer and is catastrophic to an economy when unmanaged. Former US President Ronald Reagan once famously said, "Inflation is as violent as a mugger, as frightening as an armed robber, and as deadly as a hitman."

Causes of Inflation

In times of uncertainty or hardship, like an economic recession, consumers don’t spend like they usually do and instead opt to save. This behavioral shift is because they expect a potential loss in consumption-ability (e.g., losing a job or falling real wages).

However, there are knock-on effects: if consumers aren’t spending, business production declines, employees are laid off, and people make fewer investments. These effects can create a vicious cycle that central banks often try to mitigate by increasing the money supply to stimulate consumption and investment. By pumping more money into the economy, consumers will have the confidence to spend more in businesses that, in turn, can invest in new or existing products and services. Thus, central banks reinvigorate economic activity to attempt to jumpstart economic growth. Central banks measure this growth in Gross Domestic Product (GDP), or the total value of all goods and services a country produces in a given year.

Inflation is usually a direct result of central banks creating money faster than GDP growth. However, this imbalance doesn't always lead to inflation: money can enter circulation without causing inflation. For example, increased investment enables technical innovations that are generally deflationary (i.e., causes prices of goods and services to fall); when businesses can produce goods and services at a lower cost and faster than consumers can demand them, prices fall. In other words, new money is not always frivolously spent. Some may save or pay down debt. Even though the money supply is greater than before, the velocity of money fell (i.e., the rate at which money is exchanged within an economy).

The Triangle Model

The three root causes of inflation, or what the Keynesian economist Robert J. Gordon termed the "triangle model," are demand-pull inflation, cost-push inflation, and built-in inflation.

Demand-Pull Inflation

When the demand for goods and services rises faster than productive capacity, demand-pull inflation occurs. This type of inflation is due to an increase in the supply of fiat currency and cheap credit. As more money is put into circulation and is easily accessible, both demand and prices rise.

For instance, if demand rises by 5% while productive capacity is only growing by 3%, demand will outpace supply by 2%. With more money chasing fewer goods and services, prices will naturally rise.

Demand-pull inflation has occurred many times throughout history. An infamous example took place in the UK from 1986–1991 when inflation hiked 4.6 percentage points to a nine-year high of 7.6%, caused by demand-related factors including lower interest rates, rising house prices, decreased income tax rates, and high consumer confidence.

Cost-Push Inflation

When input costs for goods and services increase, such as wages or raw materials, costpush inflation occurs. As the cost of production rises, supply decreases because fewer goods and services are available. Because supply-side factors (e.g., higher wages and higher lumber prices) have changed and demand hasn’t, the producer will pass on the additional cost to consumers.

A notorious example of cost-push inflation took place in the early 1970s when the intergovernmental body known as the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) imposed higher prices on the oil market without any increase in demand, now known as the Oil Shock of 1973–1974. Though producers were earning higher profit margins in the short term, all sectors of the economy that relied on oil saw increased production costs. As a result, these parts of the economy that involve oil (e.g., transportation, plastics, construction) saw inflationary pressure on the prices of goods and services.

Built-In Inflation

When consumers expect inflation to keep rising, they demand higher wages. This demand results in an increase in the cost of production, which results in higher prices. A circular dependency can emerge whereby inflation spirals out of control, known as built-in inflation.

Lowest Common Denominator

Per figure 1, we can see changes in prices within various sectors in the US economy. Over the past 20 years, sectors with government intervention (education, housing, medicine) have seen prices soar.

Figure 1

We can also see in figure 1 that competitive markets with low involvement by the government (e.g., cell phone services, toys, and TVs) have seen prices fall over the past 21 years. Net-net, it appears there is a strong correlation between governmental intervention on markets and inflationary impacts.

What Are the Effects of Inflation?

Economists from the Austrian school, such as Murray N. Rothbard or Ludwig Von Mises, contend that inflation is not a rise in the general price level but rather an increase in the supply of money and bank credit relative to the volume of goods and services. As such, they argue that inflation is outright harmful because it depreciates the value of currency, raises the cost of living, imposes an implicit tax on the poorest class of people at a relatively higher rate than the tax on the richest class of people, devalues savings and thus disincentivizes future savings, redistributes wealth and income asymmetrically, incentivizes speculation and gambling, underestimates the antifragile mechanisms of a free market system, and corrupts the morals of both the public and private sectors.

Meanwhile, the Keynesian school defines inflation as an increase in the general price level caused by an increased money supply. Keynesian thinkers assert that inflation can yield a variety of positive and negative effects, including:

[Positive] Increase in labor supply —An economy operating below its production capacity has more unused labor and resources than can be used to increase business production (i.e., economic growth). With a surplus of readily available workers, hiring competition increases, and thus it becomes unnecessary for employers to "bid" for employees by offering higher wages. In times of high unemployment, wages typically remain stagnant, and no wage inflation (i.e., the rate of change in wages) occurs. When there's low unemployment, the demand for labor exceeds the supply, and employers may need to pay higher wages to attract employees. Increasing wages forces employers to raise prices, causing further inflation.

[Positive] Increase in aggregate demand —Because more money in circulation may lead to more spending, it can positively impact the economy by increasing demand for goods and services. This rise in aggregate demand thereby triggers more production.

[Positive & Negative] Increase in value of scarce asset holdings / decline in value of fiat savings— Because a currency’s purchasing power falls when inflation rises, so will an individual's wealth if it’s parked in cash. Therefore, demand for scarce assets (e.g., bitcoin, gold, real estate) will rise.

Introduction

If you want to make more money with your business, one good place to start is on your order forms.

Think about it…

You have a prospect with a credit card already in their hand. They’re in a buying mood. So there’s a good chance that if you put a related offer in front of them (the proverbial, “you want fries with that?”), they’ll take it. And that means you’ll make more money with every customer who walks through your door.

So how do you create a backend or upsell offer that gets your prospects clicking the “Yes” button? Like this…

1. Make Sure the Upsell Enhances The Main Offer

The very first thing you need to do is make sure any upsell offer is tightly related to the main offer. In fact, not only should it be tightly related, ideally your upsell should enhance the use or enjoyment of your main offer.

Take the classic example at a fast food restaurant. I guarantee that if you walked into McDonalds and ordered a hamburger, any well-trained clerk would ask if you wanted fries and/or a drink with that. And a lot of people say yes to this offer, because fries and/or a drink enhances the enjoyment of the burger.

Now you can do the same thing, no matter what you’re selling. For example:

You’re selling a meal-planning app. Offer a low-fat cookbook as an order form upsell.

The main offer is a copywriting course. You can offer personal copy critiques on the backend.

Your main product is all about setting up and running a successful blog. You can offer tools on the backend, such as a package of useful WordPress plugins and professional themes.

Your main product is a “how to get out of debt” course. You can offer an upsell that includes items such as a debt-management workbook and personalized debt-management counseling.

You main product is a set of kettlebell training videos. You can offer the kettlebells themselves as an upsell.

In other words, don’t just toss any ol’ offer in front of your prospects. Be sure your upsell and main offer go together like… well, like hamburgers and fries.

Next up…

2. Offer an Irresistible Deal

Dropping a related offer in front of your prospect is great. But turning that offer into an irresistible deal is even better.

Take the fast food example again. If you order a burger with a small fries and drink, the clerk will ask you if you want to “biggy size” the order for just a small extra charge. The deal is irresistible. You get a LOT more food for just a tiny bit more money.

No matter what you’re selling, you can do the same thing. For example:

“I usually charge $997 per month for this sort of coaching. But as a valued member of my new copywriting club, you’ll get a special price of just $497 per month for this same high-quality coaching…”

Next…

3. Use Short-Form Copy

You’ve got an eager prospect sitting in front of your order form with their credit card in hand. Now is not the time to put another long sales letter in front of them. They’re eager to buy. Putting another wall of text in front of them might just have them hitting the back button and abandoning the order form!

You see, you’ve already done the hard work of getting them into the necessary emotional state needed to make a purchase. You’ve already built your credibility. You’ve already established trust. You don’t need to do these things again.

So what you need to do now is simply focus on the benefits of the upsell offer. In fact, your upsell may be nothing more than a benefit-driven headline, a list of benefits, and a call to action.

TIP: As always, test to find out for sure what your audience responds to the best. Test different headlines. Test your bulleted list of benefits. You might even test short-form copy against a short sales video.

Next…

4. Frame The Price

The next thing for you to remember is that you’ve already sold your prospect on purchasing the main offer. They’ve already agreed to whatever price you’re charging. So when you extend the upsell offer, you’ll want to frame the price so that it focuses on the upsell only.

Let me give you an example…

Let’s suppose you’re selling a home study course for $99, with an upsell offer for $25 for an app:

When it comes time to ask for the order, do NOT do this: “Would you like to add this offer to your order for a total of $125 for the course and app?”

Suddenly that sounds like a lot. The prospect is going to start second-guessing their purchase. And you could lose the entire sale.

Instead, focus on the upsell price only: “Would you like to add this app to your order for just $24 more?”

Ahhhh… that’s better. That sounds doable. And since the prospect is already planning on spending $99, that extra $24 doesn’t sound like any big deal.

It’s all in how you frame it.

Introduction

Network marketing is not the same old routine it was in the Baby Boomers’ generation. Several things have changed. Things like door-to-door calls, cold calling, etc. are just passé. Today, network marketing has gone online in a very large way.

Here, in this eBook, we shall see how people have taken network marketing ahead and what you can do to realize its full potential.

Chapter 1: An Introduction

Summary

Network marketing isn’t what it once was. Times have changed and so has this concept. In this chapter we begin to understand how network marketing is placed in today’s times.

An Introduction

Whatever may have changed with the network marketing world, one thing remains quite constant. This realm is just as competitive as it ever was. And that’s the reason you need to employ improved strategies if you have to run ahead in the race. People have become wise to all the new tricks and it is time we brought something new into our methods.

Network marketing still works with the jungle mentality. The lions eat the hares. That’s one thing that has not changed.

Network marketing has come a long, long way from the fifties when it was first introduced as a business model. However, there are some things that haven’t yet changed much.

It is still very important to give good value to the people in your team.

It is still observed that people at the top (uplines) help the people at the bottom (downlines). Sidelines help each other as well.

Management is still of prime essence.

It is extremely crucial to have your own standing and reputation if you are to make any kind of headway into this world.

Of course, these points are of timeless importance. The basic essence of network marketing still follows through in the 21st century, but the methods in which these are planned have undergone a sea change. Methods of finding opportunities, methods of prospecting people and methods of keeping one step ahead of the competition have decidedly changed.

Here you shall learn how these new tendencies can be employed to make the best of your network marketing endeavors. You can learn what methods work and what won’t.

At the same time, it needs to spelled out, right here at the outset, that just reading this eBook is not going to make you the next network marketing guru.

You have to employ the methods described herein and take advantages of our suggestions if you have to make the business work for you.

Chapter 2: Network Marketing in the 21st Century

Summary

So how different has network marketing become really?

Network Marketing in the 21 st Century You have to know some important differences first.

Sales Vs Marketing

Prospects have become warier than they ever were. There are so many opportunities out there that it is difficult for them to decide what they must take, if at all. Even if someone is contemplating on a network marketing business, you couldn’t always hope to sway them toward your side because there are so many options opened out to them.

However, network marketing still remains lucrative and that is one big draw for you to bring people toward your business. The results that can be expected can be so huge in monetary terms that they could put most companies to shame.

The emphasis of ‘marketing’ in ‘network marketing’ is still quite profound.

Despite whatever you might have heard about networking being the most important thing here, you must know that you are, after all, ‘marketing’. This is an important thing for you to consider. In fact, when you are getting your prospects, make sure that you get people who know how to market. Networking is fine enough, but what use is it if you can get your octogenarian grandmother into your network, who cannot market anything for you?

The days of pumping network with people who cannot market – read family and friends – should be over by now. Today’s network marketing businesses know that it is extremely important to have people in the team who can bring about the allimportant sales.

Though this premise is slightly different, network marketing is most assuredly a sales concept. You have to sell things for money, not just share them. In the 21 st century, the difference between sharing and selling has become much more profound, especially over the Internet. When you recommend something without any financial gains, like if you tell someone there’s a really great movie in town that they must catch, you aren’t selling. Selling is what is important in network marketing – you do this with monetary gains involved for yourself.

Chapter 3: The Google Revolution

Summary

Googling might well become an Oxford entry. It is not a matter of ‘will it’, it is a matter of ‘when’.

The Google Revolution

As in everything else, the Google Revolution has swept the network marketing world as well. A very small indication can be obtained by simply going to Google and typing in ‘network marketing’. With 123,000,000 results, there’s no questioning how popular this search term is, and Google won’t ever be behind to latch on to something that is so much in demand.

But, why is Google important to you? It is so simply because now Google has overtaken all other search engines in popularity. It has become almost an Internet default to search something on Google. If you don’t know something or want to find out something, no one any longer says, “I will search on the Internet.” Instead, they say, “I will Google it.”

Hence, if you rank on Google, if you get those highly coveted first page rankings, you have it made. Now, Google SEO is a whole new concept in itself. But remember these few things:–

1. Google ranks websites on the basis of their content. So, content remains king. However, this content is useless unless it has the right kind of content involved in it.

2. Along with that, Google simply loves it if you update your content regularly. That is why blogs are tops.

3. Inbound links are just something else when you are dealing with Google. Get as many links live on the Internet – through articles, blogs, forum posts, social networking site comments, etc. The more the number of people visiting your site, the better will be the rank of the site.

Today, working with Google has become like a circle. You first promote yourself on Google, get the initial trickle of visitors, and when Google sees that people are visiting your website, they will rank your site better which will help attract more visitors. It is actually simple to get the initial rank on Google if you follow all Google-friendly methods. Get in the loop as fast as you can.

At the same time, don’t forget Google’s value in research. You could use this tool significantly in finding out what your competitors are really up to and you could enhance your strategies likewise.

Chapter 1: Passive Income – Best Ways to Earn it

There are many ways to generate income online and a passive income is one of those ways. Being able to generate a passive income takes a special skill.

Your audience can be fickle. If they feel you are more concerned about the money than them, you will fail. Your intent needs to be about helping others.

Initially you are going to need to put in a lot of time. It’s hard work to get a passive income flow going and to build that success.

It doesn’t come overnight, although many would like you to believe this. Just because you have your product it doesn’t mean you can sit back and relax. There really isn’t a 100% passive income, because you always have to be managing what you are doing.

You need to build automation, but to do that you first have to create trust with your followers or audience. That’s where initially you have a lot of time invested, which will decrease, but you will always be involved.

You will need to find a market that works for you. You will need to find a niche market that you can help based on your experience and passion. How well you serve your audience will dictate what your earnings are.

Don’t just pick a niche because it’s currently ‘hot.’ You are going to need to continue to build, write articles, and market that product and new products that fit under that initial niche for years to come, so make sure it’s a niche you can handle, otherwise you will not enjoy success.

Instead, try to fill a gap in the market in the niche that interests you.

You will need to build a platform so that you can start to share your product. This could be YouTube, it could be a blog or whatever other market interests you. You don’t have to reach everyone.

That’s a waste of effort. Instead, focus on reaching the audience that would be interested in what you have to offer.

Determine which products are going to serve you best and then offer your audience value. In fact, offering them something of value for free helps to establish trust and interest so that they are far more likely to buy whatever else it is you have to offer.

They now know you have expertise in your niche and something that’s worth listening to so they are ready to pay.

As your passive income builds and you become comfortable in your business, make sure that the profit never becomes your main motivation, because when it does you set yourself up for failure.

Introduction

Increasing your website’s traffic is already a time-consuming task that will take up enough of your time. So, you need to make sure that traffic converts into sales, right?

Thankfully, there are drop-dead simple ways of capturing attention, boosting conversion rates and ultimately, maximizing your profits without breaking the bank, or spending a lot of time tweaking your traffic campaigns.

In fact, the conversion boosting hacks featured in this report are ones that you can easily implement into your existing website without spending more than a couple of hours tightening up a few weak areas so that you can transform your business in just a matter of a few short days.

Does that sound like something you’d be interested in?

If so, let’s begin!

Chapter 1: Polish & Shine

It all begins with ensuring that your website or landing page is optimized for conversion.

Whether you are directing traffic to a sales page, or you’re sending them to a landing page, you need to make sure that your page will motivate visitors into taking action.

Here are a few quick and easy ways to do that:

Make Visitors Do Less Work

If you are sending visitors to a squeeze or landing page, it’s important that you only ask for the information that you absolutely need.

Your opt-in form should ask for only their name and email address. You can segment your lists later as your subscribers begin to open and respond to your campaigns, but to maximize opt-in rates, you need to keep it simple.

It shouldn’t take your visitor more than a few seconds to fill in the required information and subscribe to your list.

Additional form fields will severely decrease conversion rates because you’re bogging your visitor down.

The less effort you require of potential subscribers, the easier it will be to grow a list.

Keep the page crisp and clean so that visitors aren’t confused about what action they should take, and make sure that all conversion elements are above the fold for optimal results.

Minimize navigation. In fact, eliminate it altogether so that all they see is the headline, opt-in form and incentive offer. Also, pay careful attention to your headline. Make sure that it speaks to your visitor and gives them a reason to give you their name and email address. You’ll want to test out different headlines to determine what works best for your audience.

A compelling headline captures attention and convinces people to continue reading every single word on your page until you have closed the deal. It persuades visitors into becoming customers, and makes believers out of the skeptics. And if it’s done right, it has the power to transform a sales page into an incredible money-making machine. David Ogilvy, a business tycoon, known as the “father of advertising” believed that the headline of a sales page was the single most important component in a marketing system.

He also summarized the importance of a killer headline with the following quote: “On the average, five times as many people read the headline than they do the body.”

Your job is to create a headline that immediately captures attention and touches down on what is most important to your target audience. You don’t want to get too creative, crafty or clever with your headlines. While you can create headlines that create curiosity, when it comes to your marketing message you want it to ring loud and clear. This means you need to be very direct. No guessing. No wordplay.

Replicate What Works for Others

Study successful landing and squeeze pages from within your niche and save yourself time by designing your opt-in pages around what has proven to work.

And if you really want to increase opt-in rates, add a video to your squeeze page or a high-quality product box or graphic that represents your incentive offer.

Offer an Irresistible Incentive Offer

You’ll want to make sure that you are offering something of clear value that resonates with your target audience.

Don’t make the mistake of trying to cater to every potential client on one squeeze page.

For best results, create multiple landing pages that are aimed at specific target audiences, and then offer a giveaway that is designed to help them in some way.

Even when focusing on just one niche, it’s important to speak to segments of your market.

For example, if you sell a guide on self-publishing, you could set up a landing page aimed towards beginners while offering a free report on “Top 10 Tools You Need to Build Your Author Presence”.

Then, create a second landing page that is targeted towards intermediate authors who already likely have an online presence but are looking to maximize exposure and build their readers base.

The better targeted your incentive offer is, the easier it will be to convince visitors to subscribe to your list.

Chapter 2: Drafting a High Converting Sales Copy

When it comes to your sales page, you need a very narrow focus so that you’re able to communicate with your visitor and convince them to purchase your product.

Keep your sales copy moving along by constantly engaging your potential customer.

If your sales copy doesn’t get you excited about your product, don’t expect that it will convert visitors into customers.

You want to guide your visitors’ attention to the most important elements of your copy using bullet points, headlines and sub- headlines and other visual cues.

Keep them glued to your copy!

Use short, concise sentences so that visitors can quickly scan your copy for the information that’s most important to them.

Don’t bog them down with endlessly long paragraphs of text. And use images or video content whenever possible to maximize engagement and humanize your brand.

Speak their language. Use every day language, as though you are talking to a friend.

Your visitors will feel more relaxed when reading your sales copy if they aren’t forced to Google unfamiliar words.

If your product is aimed at beginners, using everyday language, rather than fancy wording, will also ensure that they aren’t overwhelmed or concerned that they won’t be able to utilize your product effectively because it’s too advanced for them.

Your sales page is not the place to show off your linguistic skills.

Find out:

* What kind of terminology do they use?

* How would they describe the product/services they purchase?

* How do they describe the problem?

* What are their demographics? The more you know about your target audience, the easier it will be for you to create sales copy that speak directly to them.

Add a No-Questions-Asked Money Back Guarantee Remove all risks to your buyer by offering a no questions asked, money-back guarantee on your sales page.

This tells visitors that you believe in your product and aren’t afraid to stand behind it by ensuring that they are satisfied with their purchase.

The increase in sales will always make up for any refunds you need to process!

Happiness – Know the Basics

Synopsis

Happiness is a state of one’s mind. You do not look for it. You do not even have to chase it. Happiness, in truth, lies within yourself, starting from you and ending at you. In the simplest essence, happiness is about getting back your true nature. While other people try to look for happiness through their wealth, career, money and success, you have to understand that happiness is something that you choose for yourself.

So, what are the basics of happiness? What are the things that you can do in order for you to truly start being happy with your life?

The Basics

Be in Control and Take Possession

Your body is composed of hundred trillion of cells, all of which are answerable to you and you alone. You are basically these cells’ commander in chief and they are working constantly not for the benefit of other people, but only for your own benefit. For these cells, you are the only person that exists. To start on your journey to happiness, you first need to be in control of these cells, take possession and be responsible for these cells for in so doing; you also become the master of both your mind and body.

Be Yourself

Newborn babies practically share the same level of happiness the moment they have been given birth to this world. However, their happiness level starts to change once they get older. One basic rule in order to become happy is for you to remember that your fundamental nature is soft, vibrant and full of enthusiasm, energy, and love. You must never compare yourself with other people because you are exceptional and unique. And this uniqueness is something that you need to explore. If there is one thing about you that you do not like, never put the blame on your parents, on other people and most importantly, on yourself. What you need to do is acknowledge its existence and accept it as it is. Instead of lamenting, what you should do is exert some efforts in order for you to eliminate this one thing that you do not like and by this, you can expect to be happy.

Empty Yourself

If you are truly determined to be happy, you also need to free your mind and body from all negativities. Remember that there is nothing negative on earth, only your thinking makes things that way. Get rid of fear, frustration, ego, tension, hatred, anger and stress from your system. Be aware of your destination and imagine yourself getting there. Relax. If things are bound to come, they will come, only if you want them to.

After you have learned how to be in control of yourself, how to be yourself and how to empty yourself, the next step is for you to fill yourself with as much positive energy as you can. Fill yourself with hope, kindness, compassion, positive feelings, gratitude, desires and love. As you do so, you can finally tell yourself that happiness is just within your reach.

Reasons of People’s Sadness

Synopsis

“Every man has his secret sorrows which the world knows not; and often times we call a man cold when he is only sad.” ? Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
With everything happening around the world, with all the wars, natural calamities and other kinds of catastrophes that befall on the people, it is no longer a surprise that many of them end up sad, or worse, even depressed.

If you feel down or you got the blues, then, you should know that you are not alone. Every single person in this world gets sad. When you are sad, you will surely feel that that sadness is bound to last forever. But more often than not, sad feelings do not really last that long – several hours, or even a day or two probably.

Sadness

Sadness – What is It?

When you feel sad, the whole world might seem unfriendly and dark to you all of a sudden. Deep inside you, you feel that hurt that seems to crush both your spirit and your heart. Most of the time, you find yourself crying, with the tears difficult to stop. For most people, crying alone can already make them feel better. The moment sadness starts fading away, that is the time when you feel as if the heavy and thick blanket has finally be lifted off your heart, and you feel happiness all over again.
