1. Recovering from Computer Crash
Computer Crash…It Happens!
A computer crash is always a 'horror'. If you haven't experienced this,
you can have no appreciation for the hardships it causes. Probably,
the first hardship is at the emotional level. Just think of dedicating
yourself to a particular computer for a period of time....a year or two.
Then, consider all the time you spent making settings, downloading
particular programs that are meaningful to your work. Next, think of
all the wonderful data you've created, stored and refer to often
while performing your work on the computer. Being affected at the
emotional level is a sure thing when all that gets lost in a millisecond.
It takes time to recover from your feelings and then to come to an
understanding of what's happened to you. Next, you have to develop
a plan for getting over it....find a way to begin again.
Perhaps the easiest thing to do will be place the non-working computer
in the nearest trash can and go to Wal-Mart where a variety of computers
await you. That would be a tempting way to a fresh start with your computer
activities. I have to tell you that it may be the easiest, but it is not
necessarily the most economical way. There's probably several more
years of life left in the computer-gone-bad. There's a procedure called
System Restore available for computer users. The instructions
for the how-to-do-it usually comes with the computer at purchase. If you
don't have the instructions, or the tools to work with, for a System Restore,
look at your machine to locate identification information....model number
and anything else labeled. Call the manufacturer and start the
research in locating the restoration c.d.'s or the customer support
program that will lead you through the restore.
Having had this experience a time or two...or three or four....myself, I've
learned a little bit about avoiding the total collapse of my sanity and
the complete loss of everything I'd worked for that went 'poof!' as the
computer's electrical impulses went haywire. First, let me encourage
you to go to Wal-Mart. Find the computer accessories department and
buy an external hard drive that will connect to a port on your computer.
Use this external hard drive to save you information on and to do
back up with. Doing this means that you don't automatically loose
your stuff. Everything you consider valuable in the way of data
will be on the external hard drive and can be plugged in another
computer. After the system restore, or when you've purchased a new computer,
plug in the external hard drive to find your passwords, your
memberships, your music, your pictures, your everything that was saved.
There is yet lots of work in getting set up with a restored or new computer....the restored computer is equal to a new one in that the internal hard drive is blank. You are
starting all over in settings, installations, and anything else that you wish to have in your computer.
A very strong suggestion here is to install virus and spyware protection immediately after getting an Internet signal to you machine. The cold, cruel truth is that creatures from an
evil real world have invaded cyberspace. They are ready to choke your machine and
steal your information just because they can. Of course, they always hope to benefit by
their stolen goods in some way....perhaps by getting access to your checking account.
So, it's a given that you install virus/spyware security immediately. When you've
downloaded and installed your choice of security measures, go ahead and run the first
scan. Don't be surprised to find some things already attached to your computer that you did
not put there....tracking cookies are most common. This will verify and illustrate the
need for protection.
There are both harmful and helping cookies. You
along with your computer, have to decide which
ones you want to live in your hard drive.
Cookies help you when you go back to a website
by storing your settings for you. For example,
a cookie helps you stay logged into your favorite site so
when you come back, you can get right down to
business. instead of having to log in
each time you go to a different page and return. Cookies can also be planted by someone other than yourself to retrieve information about you and how you use your computer.
You also need some software installed that will eliminate spyware that gets into your computer.
These little 'mini programs' get stored on
your computer by other websites or by information
you download. Their job is to keep track of things you do on
the Internet, and periodically pop up pages in front of your face in hopes you'll be impressed and want to buy something there and then. Spyware can slow your computer
down dramatically, cause other programs to not work correctly--or at all--or crash your computer.
My suggestion is to use a free version of AVG Anti-Virus. This can be active protecting your computer while you search for something else if you wish to change programs. I found it to be very thorough and complete. AVG can be thought of as an all-in-one program. There's
antivirus, antispyware, link scanner, update manager, email scanner and a resident shield. All of this is free to use. This is a great value which allows you to access the Internet without fear or worry. The upgrade is available if you desire it for some other features not included in the free version.
While making sure that you're going to be able to use your computer without a hassle, you may as well go ahead and deal with pop ups and adware. A great, highly recommended free adware program is available at http://www.lavasoft.com. And the pop up blocker is usually built into your browser, but it not, do a Google search for free pop up blockers. There's many to choose from.
Next comes the installation of a password manager. You know you can't remember all those passwords and who among thought to use the same one with all our programs, changing it universally every few months? I really don't recommend that because if, by some horror, your password were hacked, then it would open everything you thought you had protected by a password.
I, personally, depend on RoboForm. There is
a free version which allows a limited number of password entries or there's the paid version which allows unlimited passwords. The RoboForm Password program is truly a service. It allows you to point at the site name you wish to visit which triggers RoboForm to go to the site, automatically insert your user name and password, and the page. And, RoboForm does this quickly. There are security measures built in with RoboForm....encryption, password generation and several more great features described on the sign up page. I use it and have had to download it several times after having computer problems. There has been no cost for the re-downloads. Oh, yes. There are reminders from RoboForm that automatically pop up at the appropriate times to tell you that new versions and/or updates are available. RoboForm, again, is very in-tune with the computer user's needs.
Tools of the trade....that's what all these software items provide you. If you intend to be online, you have to be prepared for the worse while enjoying the best out there. I think it's awful that the most invaded computers are the one that our children use for music downloads, game playing, chatting, etc...all the things they like to do are found on the websites most guilty of infecting their computers with bad stuff.
The items mentioned above are only the ones I use. If you look at http://www.download.com, or http://www.filehippo.com, you find countless of quality software items that allow you to use them at no cost.
It is my hope that this short commentary on computer usage will be of help and encouragement for you. The frustrations of things going bad can be overcome by a little trouble up front.
Wishing you good computing,

2. There is News!
Southern Marketing Company Prepares
for Major Product Release
Magnolia Marketing CoOperative is a marketing
company established in September of this year
by two ladies from Mississippi, Micki
Scheuerman and Dorothy Allen, who have dubbed
themselves as The Evergreen Magnolias. They
smiled as the company was tagged, "Marketing
with Hospitality."
The Magnolia Marketing CoOperative has
been established for the purpose of
marketing, both on-line and off-line,
a very specific product which has not yet
been named. An announcement concerning the
product and the Company's role in making
that product available will be announced
in the near future.
Both Dorothy and Micki realize that there
is no shortage in the number of Internet
Marketing Companies online these days but
they have no intention of competing with
them. "Our company is as unique as our
product." responded Dorothy when asked
about competition. "There is no competition
when your one-of-a-kind company is offering
a one-of-a-kind product."
Micki, who is a long term Internet marketer,
is excited about both the company and the
product. She believes that people, world
wide, have been waiting for this product's
development.
Micki explained that her ambition has
always been to help others. She believes
that this company and this product will
be exactly what she needs in order to
fulfill that ambition.
Other marketers may soon be able to work
with the CoOperative in the distribution
of the product. A pay plan is now on the
drawing board and will be released when
the product becomes available. In
consideration of individuals who may be
inexperienced in Internet Marketing, The
Co-Operative will present individual
instruction toward the planned marketing
techniques for their product.
Contact information is being made available
for those who wish to be informed of further
developments.

Expertise in Your Chosen Field Is there an Expert in
the House?
Levels of expertise exist in every category
of home life and business operation. We
assume that most everyone wishes to
continually increase their level of expertise.
Often, they may not know how to do that.
One of the first things a person must do to
raise their level of expertise in any area is
to evaluate themselves and come up with an
accurate rating of their personal expertise
level. Once a person knows their level, it is
easier to map out a strategy to raise that
level.
Three significant sources of help in the
area of Internet marketing have come together
in a complimentary way that identified my
training needs in the area of Internet
marketing. My level of expertise was on the
low side. The help received from these three
sources has taken me from the level of
complete Newbie to where I am now....in a
business partnership working by Internet to
distribute a major breakthrough product in
today's wellness market.
I hold nothing back when recommending the
Veretekk Marketing and Lead Generation
System,
$200 Per Day Blueprint
and the
CrazyFoxes Internet Marketing Specialists.
Each of these groups has unique information
and marketing know-how that compliments the
other two groups. By working with, and
learning from, the people in theses programs,
failure has become virtually impossible.
Your level of expertise in the area of
Internet Marketing can rise to whatever level
you wish to have. Talking with you about your
needs and ambitions would be a pleasure. The
contact information below is included for your
convenience. Don't sit on your hands a minute
longer. Move forward toward fulfilling your
business and financial ambitions by contacting
me or by clicking one of the links above.
Much Success to You

hardly a day passes which doesn't include
something learned from this company.

I Get No Respect Earlier:
I'm sitting here with my lips poked out. Surly, I share common genes with Rodney Dangerfield. I get no respect. Worse, I get no recognition. Worse than that, I really am trying! Gee, I am so misunderstood, misused and abused.
I'm just plain out pitiful but it doesn't seem to register with anybody. My repetitioius goof-ups bring lots of red faced embarrassment for me and big belly-laughs from others, but no respect...no appreciation for effort...just smiles of entertainment from those who happen to pass by.
Bad weather patterns, equipment failures, life pulling at my mind -- all of these are pieces and parts of my failures to excell. Poor Rodney. His circumstances were no better. How did he keep going?
Poor Rodney?? No! He actually got paid for being rediculously incompetent. Not so with me. Poor old me. I'm so pathetic.
Later:
A quotation found its way into my vision: "There is a crack in everything. That's how the light gets in." - Leonard Cohen -
Now:
O.K., so I'm not perfect....well, very far from perfect. But, no one's been harmed (I hope). Growth, however reluctantly, has taken place. I'm still here. There's still time. There's nothing to loose in making the effort. Yes, I'll try again - and again, and again. Move over world. I'm coming through!
_______________________________
All the above was written so that you can know you are not alone with those very human reactions. We all have things in our lives that act as set-backs. But, thanks to a networking group of consciencious internet marketers, all of which are dedicated to each other's success, I've been uplifted and set on the true path.
CrazyFoxes Marketing Specialists
My marketing efforts have found meaning and direction. My business has improved. Friendships have developed. The answers to my how-to questions are just a click away because someone is always there.
CrazyFoxes Marketing Specialists
You, too, can have this support.
Here is where you start. Take your time and evaluate what you see. Ask questions. Then join us. We'll be better because of your presence and you'll be better because of us. We're building business with Integrity. You
can, too.

Internet Marketers are People, Too Home Business Professionals are People,
Too
A few my co-workers have joined me,
lately, in studying eMail...the how-to-do
its. This study, and these co-workers, have
brought me to a higher level in
understanding about the use and misuse of
eMail. I can now voice what 'it' is
that has been bugging me for months about
the eMails coming through the
inbox in a steady stream. I say "coming
through" because they don't stay
long enough to become saved, stored,
activated, or , truthfully, even
read. Now I can give voice as tp why my
responses are so quick
and definite.
Many of you are attempting to get a home
business off the
ground by doing eMail marketing. It seems
that my calling, at
least one of them, is to help Newbies get
their feet planted
solidly in the ground of Internet Marketing.
That's why I want
to tell you that some eMails are just
irritating right up front
because the subject line is a turn-off. I
get no further than
a glance at the subject line and/or the
salutation before my
finger jumps all over the delete button.
How do the following
statements make you react?
"You Must"...oh, no! I 'must' do only
what I determine to
do...don't be telling me what I must do!
"Dear Friend"....What? Do I know you? I
think I'd know it if we
were friends.
"You have won" or "Inherited" or "loan me
your checking account to
get money out of my country"....Are there
people in our world who actually
believe that stuff?
"Re: Inquiry"....What Inquiry? I didn't
inquire about anything.
That's a reverse marketing technique.
"Using letters to represent words"...TGIF
is about the only one
I know. The rest of them are just
gibberish. The assumption by the
writer is that they are so important and so
popular, that everyone
who is anyone will know what their
abbreviations represent.
"Size Matters"...since when? That's
getting pretty close to porno.
News flash! Not every little blue pill is
for male enhancement!
"PayPal requests verification"...that's a
fishing expedition with
someone waiting to rip you off.
"Trusting in God"...Please don't get me
wrong here. Our Belief system
is the very foundation by which we function.
I resent, and extremely so, anyone
who uses God to further their chances of
making a sale.
"Thank You"...Huh? I didn't do anything
for that person and now,
I'm not reading the email, either!"
"This System Really Works"....Well, have
they been advertising a
system that didn't really work?
"Reserve Your Spot"...Do you think your
request for membership
would be rejected? Are they truly going to
deny membership because their
'list is too long'?
My email no-no list is growing. I
believe that marketers use such
items as those listed above for one of three
reasons:
1. They really are crooks and think the
reader is an idiot.
2. They think that tricks and misleading
comments will make sales.
3. They fail to realize that both the
seller and the buyer are nothing more, or
less, that actual, real people.
We all have likes, dislikes: We have
money or we don't: We need
things for survival: We want stuff just for
the sake of having it: The 'real
people' list goes on forever.
Now, here's the kicker. When I want
something, or need it, I'm going
to find it myself. The seller of what I am
going to buy doesn't have to find
me. I will find the seller because I'm
about to spend some money on
something that I decided to buy. No one
decided that for me. I wasn't
tricked or scammed into making a purchase.
If the sales pitch is deceptive
in the way it describes my product, I'll
find another seller. You are a real
person. Can you relate to that?
If you are building a home business and
you haven't come to
terms with the idea of being where people
are looking (we're talking search
engines) for the item you're selling, then
you need to rethink your marketing
approach. My help in marketing came from

System4Orginazation
It has been very good for me to be part
of a marketing network called The
Crazy Foxes Internet Marketing
Specialists. We actually
'work' together while swapping
information. We're all learning
and growing with each other. One
of the members published one of
the my chat entries on a
Veretekk member's
Free
Page. It's called System4Organization
Maybe you'd like to read it.
Also, check out the Free
Page at our marketing system,
Veretekk. They're the best
at what they do. (And, they do it
all!)
The posting follows:
In reading over the chat notes, I
see again that someone has lost
their sign up url.
One of the first things I ask
for help with when I started
doing something on the Internet
was 'organization'.
The information piles up so fast
that there needed to be some kind
of system
to keep up with what was
there...to be able to put your
hands on it without too much
trouble.
The response I was given was
that there is no system.
Everyone figures it out for
themselves.
Well, that's O.K.....except for
newbie's who haven't begun to
understand the need for some type
of retrieval system. It takes a
lot of trial and error with
various methods...meanwhile they
are losing their stuff.
That's why I'm exposing my
'system' to you guys.
Maybe it will help.
If not, ignore it. Nothing
lost.
Dorothy
Allen's "System" 4
Organization
I use notepad...it's clean,
flexible, easy to use.
I started with a folder called
'My Info Stuff'...name it
something that you'll remember.
Inside that folder are other
folders.
They are labeled according to the
type of information they contain.
For instance, there's one labeled
'Resources'.
Inside 'Resources' I file the
notepads appropriate to that
file.
One notepad may be labeled,
'Resources I use'
Another might be labeled,
'Resources to Investigate'.
Now, on the note pad itself,
is listed the 'Name of Resource'
(Something you make up that you
will recognize when you see it).
Under the name of the resource,
enter the url to the resource,
the username and password if you
had to sign up for it,
date signed up (or used), where
used (part of blog, website,
ad-campaign, etc.)
Use the same notepad for the
next item...here's what makes it
easy...
List your next item either above
or below the present listing,
depending on alphabetical order.
Most of us know the ABC's, so
when I'm looking for PayPal,
I know it's going to be down the
list about half way listed with
other resources I've used
beginning with the letter
'P'.
I usually put a dotted line
between the individual resources
just to help my vision realize
that one listing has ended and
another began.
There's no end to the number
of folders that can be created
and no end to the notepads within
each folder if more
categorization is needed.
As stated above, this is not
the 'only way' to organize your
information, but it is 'a
way'.

Communication Lots of people look at that word, communication, and wonder what all the big to-do is about. Communicate. Big Deal! Open your mouth and speak...or, take up the pencil and write...or, sit at the computer and send an email...or...
It's true that many methods of communication exist today. The various ways in which to communicate are becoming more each day with the evolution of technology. But, just because there is a physical means to communicate does not mean that communication has taken place.
The definition of the word, communication, tells us that the act of communicating means the passing of information from one mind to another mind. So, regardless of the effort being made, if the information is not actually passed to another mind, you have not communicated.
With our young children, we wait patiently and insistently for them to receive the information being transmitted to them as we repeatedly try to communicate the word 'no'.
It is obvious that the information doesn't reach the young mind...we did not communicate...in the beginning. It takes repeated efforts and, at times, some type of behavioral reinforcement, before communication of that bit of information is successful.
For us, as marketers, the need to communicate is fundamental to the success of our business. Telephoning, emailing, blasting ads, rotating in traffic exchanges...all of these are simply ways in which we are trying to communicate. Getting someone's attention first... having someone recognize that we are attempting to transmit information... and then, to have that someone actually receive the information we are transmitting.... for us, that is communication at it's highest level.
What the someone actually does, or doesn't do, with the information we've communicated is, in a way, a communication of it's own. There will be a response to the received information. The buying of our product is the highest level of positive response to our communication. Taking no action at all concerning our information is the highest level of negative response. It may not be possible for the marketer to have proof of the response level in-between those two extremes. Chances are, the receiver of the information actually thinks about what has been communicated and then puts that thought process to one side as they consider other communications.
It is said that a sale usually doesn't take place until after the 6th, 7th, 8th time of being exposed to the information. With that understood, it is to the marketers best interest to continue efforts at communication to the same market group for some period of time before changing direction. The addition of some kind of positive reinforcement may aid in the reception of transmitted information... something like a downloadable freebie or a certificate of discount.
I hope this bit of 'education' concerning communication will be helpful to other Work at Home Moms such as myself.

All Those Systems are Great, But..... Those systems are great,but...
A large percent of my readers will be aware
of one or more marketing systems which are
available to them. Each of these systems can
rightfully claim to be very good. Each one
can, in fact, aid you in the promotion of your
product or service. Their system is usually
accompained with customer service and each has
a built in way for you to promote that service
along with your own product.
I, in particular, think that Veretekk is
the only way to go where marketing systems are
concerned. Having said that, I need to let
you know that I'm not unaware of the rather
large learning curve presented to Newbies as
they begin to apply the Veretekk system.
It was for this reason that I was very
happy to hear about, and become part of a
marketing network called CrazyFoxes Internet
Marketing Specialists. This group has taken
the best parts of several marketing systems
and have intertwined them in such a way that
the marketer can cover every aspect of
marketing without running all over the
Ineternet looking for pieces and parts to fill
in the gaps of their present system.
Never would I put away Veretekk in exchange
for something else. It is the best.
CrazyFoxes didn't make Veretekk better. They
made it simpler to understand. They made it
easier to apply. They act as a guide to
individualy, one on one, who proceed with the
marketing process one step at a time.
I recommend each of these groups: Veretekk
and CrazyFoxes. I hope you have an
opportunity to look into each of them. I'd be
happy to introduce you to them and answer your
questions.

Downloadable Information Link Can you see my smile? I'm beaming!!
Today, I did something that has been a goal for a long time. It may not seem like much to the reader, but to me, it was a major accomplishment.
What did I do? I made a webpage containing a downloadable link! Giving that downloadable link to someone would allow them access to the downloadable information. That Information (which I've also learned to create) can be read and deleted or saved for future use.
Have you thought about how knowledge is built upon previous knowledge? I think that many people fail to achieve their work at home goals because they begin dealing with unknowns and can't seem to work themselves back to the basics to get the fundamental knowledge necessary for building a home business.
Now that creating a downloadable link has been added to my arsenal of website building abilities, many options have appeared as to how my website can be used. This is a major accomplishment about which I am delighted.
Would you also like to create downloadable links for your own website? Contact me. We can do it together until you're comfortable with it.
Encouragement and suggestions for how-to-do-its in building my home business have been constantly and consistently available to me from my
group of co-workers, The
CrazyFoxes Internet Marketing Specialists. They get most of the credit for any achievement I personally make. This type of help can also be yours in building your online business. Read about us and feel free to join the group.
Do you wish to make money from home? You know, it doesn't have to be a competition. Let's repeat that: THIS IS NOT A COMPETITION! Working together, for the success of the group, is a winning technique for building your home business. Crazy? Yes, Crazy like a fox!

HOW ARE WE TO KNOW? "You can't move in a positive direction with negative energy."
Today is posting day for this blog. And, by the way, I do thank you for the interest you've shown over time by reading the information. We've tried to stress on things
needed to be known by Newbies and by Work at Home Moms.
But, today, my mind is blank. I'm sitting here at the computer with fingers twitching, ready to tell you something...I haven't the slightest idea of what to say to you. So, I thought that maybe this would
be a good chance to become better acquainted.
It took a while for me to realize that all these cyber-acquaintances that you make when dealing with the Internet....well, they're just people, too. It's not just a faceless crowd out there who may or may not support your Internet business. Ever sense that thought struck home, I've been trying to find a way to get closer to the folks I mail letters to each week, or month. I bet you guys could teach me a thing or two. Shoot! I may even know some stuff that you'd like to know...but we'll never know what that is unless we become close enough on the friendship side to talk to each other about it...I mean really talk….not sell stuff.
I would like very much to be a part of your circle of friends even though we'll probably not ever become introduced in the physical here and now. I know that for you to accept me, even as an acquaintance, you'll need to know a little more about me. So, that's how we'll spend this time together today. I'm hoping that you will respond with a hello to let me know we've actually crossed paths out there in the virtual world.
Biographically, I am a Southern retired mother to 3 and granny to six with attitudes and opinions gathered during a life fully and well lived. I seek fun and playfulness at every turn during every day and have given up the act of making excuses about the things I do since I have now reached an age which allows my actions to be done without the need of permission from other sources. Ain't life grand? And being old is just not that bad when you've had a good time getting there. (complete profile at http://www.homespunways2.com)
Three years ago, a hurricane named Katrina played havoc with the lives of us who are in this geographical location. Thankfully, no lives were lost in this immediate community, but lives were changed. Jobs ceased to exist.
Families had to go on welfare. Relocation to other states, even nations, was required to earn a salary for survival.
We flipped the light switch and nothing happened! That was a shock to all, more so to the young who had never been
without electricity before. Bread, milk, water, gasoline, air conditioning (it was late August with 100 and above degree heat while an infestation of love bugs added to the misery) ceased to exist. Ice became treasured above all else. FEMA came in and, much to our disappointment was useless in aiding actual survival. Money, even if you get some, doesn't buy the things that really count.
The young ones learned, and the older ones relearned, how to live with nature instead of fighting it. My family began a tradition of having a week each year of living without electricity, automobiles, phones, etc. The young ones actually look forward to this now and are putting some thought into avoiding dependency on those things which are outside their control.
It was during that time that the light went on in my brain...computer work at home...no office required...lap top...world wide communication...Wow! What a concept! Make your income from home on a computer! So, I got a computer, learned how to turn it on and have been doing home work ever since.
Opps! I went off on that tangent whole heartedly. I suppose the new storm, Gustav, which is threatening to enter our area in a few days has my mind pointed in that direction.
Back to you and me...to things we know that could be of help to each other...to forming a real friendship...to continued communication. That's way too much for one email isn't it?
My website, HomespunWays, is going up as we speak. That will provide a way to maintain contact as time goes by. I'm working on the contact page now...what a mess! But, it's coming slowly together. I do hope you'll look for me there and become a continuing presence.

Looking at the Product, Once Again Looking at the Business Product, Once Again
"The best preparation for work is not thinking about work, talking about work, or studying for work: It is work." William Weld,
Politician and Attorney
Much has been made of the product which is to be sold by the Work at Home Mom when beginning the Home Business.
We approach the subject once more in order to make a point.
In a healthy, sustained, profitable home business, the product is one that is desired by people outside the marketing community. It is a product that people have formed an emotional attachment with and one which they intend to purchase again and again.
The Work at Home Mom will do well to seek a product that people will buy: the product, itself, is the important issue. There is no future for the Internet Marketer, if the purchase of the product depends upon some affiliate payment plan attached to it.
The perfect product is one that stands out and is sought by large numbers of people. The perfect product may be slightly diffent from anything else being offered. A perfect product is one that stands out
and has resales from satisfied customers year after year. The term 'purple cow' is familiar to many Internet Marketers in that a cow is ordinary enough, but, the one difference, that of being purple, makes that particular cow a perfect product. It can become popular and bring large numbers of sales simply because it has a slight difference from other very similar products.
Many Home Businesses plan on makeing their income based on sponsoring other Internet Marketers, who in turn intend to sponsor other Internet Marketers. The whole income structure is based on sponsoring. The product is meaningless. The income is produced through sponsorships and has nothing to do with the sale of a product.
A product of superior quality may make a large number of sales for the Work at Home Mom as that product is released to the public. But, replication is extremely easy so that soon many more similar products will emerge for sale probablly at lower prices. If or when the Internet Marketer has to begin explaining why their product cost more than the competition, there is a problem with the product that will require a major overhaul of the sales plan. The salesperson cannot stress the superiority of the product because of replication. There will have to be another reason the product should sell for a higher price.
Before becoming deeply involved with a company and its product, the affiliate home business person should understand exactly where the income initiates. Ask the question, if the recruiting stops, does the cash flow also stop? It is not leagal to be paid only for recruiting people. If the product involved would not be sold without there being a compensation plan for affiliates, chances are the business will not be dependable. The
Work at Home Mom's income should come from the sale of a product and not from the recruitment of others to sell the product.
A product that should be avoided by the Work at Home Mom is that of Education. Education is free online. The sale of an educational program online will not withstand the scruiteny of investigation. The Government asks, would anyone of average intelligence buy the product if there was not an income opportunity attached? Education is free, therefore it would not be a product for sale.
A good product plus a duplicatable sales method would be the best choice for
the Work at Home Mom. A system of this sort requires a team of like minded people working together to create success in the home business.
Ego and greed are the two major causes for the failure of an Internet Marketing Business,especially for the Work at Home Mom creating a home business. Relationships, integrity, even love all have to be part of the duplicatable system making up the Internet Marketing Business.
It is absolutely nescessary to have like-minded people who have the same principles of behavior working toward the same goal if the Internet Business is to be successful for the Work at Home Mom. When recruiting for a downline, it should be remembered that people are not numbers. Each person has a value that will add to or take away from the Internet Business in question. Recruit people, not numbers.

Importance of Timing for Work at Home Moms Timing is Everything for Work at
Home Moms
"Earn all you can, give all you
can, save all you can." -- John
Wesley
Newbies, Work at Home
Moms and all other Internet
Marketers are consistently on the
watch for the perfect company. Most
often, the search ends with the
choice of a good company rather than
the perfect one which is still to be
discovered.
There are several things to
consider before deciding to
participate as a distributor for any
particular company. One of these is
the length of time a company has been
in the Internet Marketing
industry. The timing of the entrance
into a business can be critical
depending, mostly, on the type of
business it is.
Many Newbies and Work at
Home Moms may reach out to a
company which provides a service
rather than a consumable product. It
should be noted that service
providers have a short life
expectancy for profitability within
the Internet Marketing field.
Providing a particular service can be
very profitable at the very beginning
of the service. As time goes by, the
profit margin will slip downwards
until it ceases to be profitable at
all. There are several reasons for
this. Any one of these reasons
result in the same lack of
profit:
- the market becomes
saturated, so that there are no
longer individuals who desire to
receive the service.
- Other businesses have begun to
offer the same service in a better
way or for less money.
- The service becomes obsolete with
a newer, better service becoming
available.
The selling of new technology is
another type of business opportunity
that is short lived. Regardless of
how good the new technology is in the
beginning, it will be replaced by
something newer and better within a
short time period. A Newbie
or a Work at Home Mom who
enters the business of selling new
technology in the very beginning of
the business may do very well
financially, but the trend will fade
in the near future. The item of
exciting new technology for sale will
soon become a free product listed in
all the giveaway programs.

Affiliations for Work at Home Moms Internet Business Affiliations for the Newbie and the Work at Home Mom
"Learn from the turtle, it only makes progress when it sticks out it's neck." Unknown
Definition of 'Affiliation': "a social drive to be associated with others in 'interdependent relationships', involving 'using others for help or support' without making them responsible for problems: Adoption; association or reception as a member in or of the same group."
Upon reading that definition, it was apparent that no better description of the CrazyFox Blueprint Marketing Network is available. It is a group of likeminded people working together to accomplish the same Internet marketing goal. Any Newbie or Work at Home Mom will find this to be the correct membership to maintain if being a successful Internet Affiliate Marketer is the ambition.
There seems to be large numbers of people who seek legitimate work at home jobs. They wish to make money from home with a and are constantly searching for work from home ideas.
Many free work from home jobs include computer work at home on the Internet offering an opportunity to make money from home by promoting a product or service.
It is suggested by active Internet marketers that Newbies making their first efforts at making money from home doing Internet Marketing because it is easy, and fast. Newbies are reassured time and time again that they can be financially wealthy within a very short period of time. For a majority of those who make the beginning effort at Internet marketing by doing computer work at home, the promise of success and riches never happens.
For some few others, they manage to see through the fog of hype and false advertising. They come to an understanding of the type of activities required of them in order to make money from home. They realize that it takes consistent, time consuming, concentrated effort. Their success isn't accomplished overnight and dollars don't float from the sky in bucketfuls to be put in their pockets. Insight into how the internet works and consistent, persistent effort can and does eventually bring income. It can be a great income and the new Internet marketer may have a claim to fame as a Internet marketing guru who then proceeds to mentor others as to how their success can come about.
In order to be an Internet marketer, there has to be a product or service which can be marketed. There are many independent
work at home business men who women who sell their own unique products by advertising them on the Internet. There are more Internet marketers, though, who become affiliated with other businesses that actually own the products which are for sale.
The job of the work at home |Internet marketing affiliate is to send buyers to the purchase site of the product. For doing this, the work at home |Internet marketing affiliate receives a percentage of the total sale. Affiliate marketing has become extremely popular and rightfully so. As a work at home | Internet Marketing affiliate, there is no responsibility for acquiring the product or shipping or even for managing the transfer of funds for the sale. The amount of income per sale for the Internet marketing affiliate may not be high, but one Work at Home Mom can promote numerous products. The good income results from multiple lines of product sales.
People are discovering the ease of purchasing products or services for themselves by using the Internet with electronic transfer of funds. The affiliate Internet marketer makes money when he brings the attention of the purchaser to the product desired to be purchased.
The amount of work needed forInternet marketing can be intimidating. The how - to- do - its are never ending and much emphasis is placed on training the Internet marketing affiliate in multiple ways of marketing. Eventually, the Work at Home Mom either gives up or becomes comfortable with his own way of working. It becomes evident that there is no one perfect way to market a product. It also becomes evident that one person cannot do everything. By choosing what works for himself and continuing his efforts, the affiliate Internet marketer becomes a success at making money from home.

Successful Company Does Not Equal Successful Distributor
"Life is change. Growth is optional. Choose wisely." Karen Kaiser Clark
Today, we are speaking of those things required by 'you' to be successful as an Internet marketer..not the things required by a company to be successful.
The distributors, or affiliate members, of any company are the life blood of that company. They are the ones who use and sell the company's products that allow the company to be profitable. Work at Home Moms will find many companies making statements about their great financial success.
A company can truthfully claim high income for itself while those who distribute for that company may not be able to say that they have earned income. A pay plan that rewards the distributors has to be present. The company must have management experience with integrity before the distributor can expect income.
Members, or distributors, may not take time to investigate the reality of the pay plan offered by a company. Work at Home Moms often feel hurried and don't take the time to read the Policies and Procedures closely. Later, they can feel cheated when realizing the dollar payouts were calculated in a way to benefit the company far more than the distributor.
The Policies and Procedures presented by the company for the distributor's agreement may be ignored by the distributor altogether. One main reason for this is the legalese language in which most of these statements are written. Unintelligible words may be strung out for several pages with various sections referring back and forth to other sections. It may be almost impossible for the average Work at Home Mom to understand exactly what they are agreeing to when signing on the dotted line.
The contract - or policy statement - can be worded in such a way that the company can eliminate the distributor and/or the pay plan without notice and without reason. Few distributors can afford to have their income depend upon a company which has this written into their Policy.
The track record for MLM companies is made public by a group called MLM Watchdog. Work at Home Moms can investigate the company in which there is interest. They should be looking for a company which has demonstrated integrity in it's dealings with the public and with it's distributors.
If the historical record of a company includes numerous bankruptcies, chances are this company is not one in which the Work at Home Mom will want to place their trust.

Marketer Choosing Product What Shall My Product Be?
"The conclusion is the place where you got tired of thinking." Arthur M. Bloch, Writer
Credit: The information being shared through this article was received as part of Robert Dlouhy's program, Mentoring For Free. It was a one-time pleasure to speak with him by phone as I reached an end of his program training. I was impressed with Mr. Dloghy, his program and the information that has proven to be true. These are reasons enough to pass it on to any Newbie who is attempting to build a home business, especially the Work at Home Mom who is starting a new home business.
This article has to do with Product. There are a couple of things to consider when choosing a product or service. A common misconception is that a marketer automatically loves their product. Choosing a product based simply on the marketer's personal feelings toward that product is a major mistake.
Having information from two sources can result in choosing a good product. First, find an existing product which is already popular and which has a good sales record. Next, find the market to which this product is being sold. The Work at Home Mom can feel fairly safe in choosing a product already being successfully sold and in choosing the identified market to which it is already being sold. The success for the marketer will not come from either the product or the specific market, but in the specific marketing campaign. Good marketing can sell a product, especially to a market already proven to be receptive.
The product provided by $200 Per Day Blue Print and our Crazy Fox Network is a step by step process to use in successful marketing. The service offered by both these groups is support to the membership brought to them individually at any time of day or night. By joining these programs, the Work at Home Mom is learning about marketing and earning income simultaneously. The knowledge gained by participation in these programs is valuable. The earnings made here can be invested into her marketing activity, regardless of her individual product.
To repeat: The marketer doesn't have to love their product. Trying to market a product based on personal love for the product will not bring about the sales needed. The Work at Home Mom should choose a product that is already popular and receiving good sales. A little research will expose the market for this popular product. Identify the popular product and the people who are buying that product will direct you in your product choice and your marketing direction.
Product choice is usually the first consideration by Newbies and the first time Work at Home Moms. Realistically, product may be least in importance of things to consider. Our next article will look at another major segment of the Internet Marketing industry that determines success or failure for Newbies and Work at Home Moms.

Plight of the Marketing Newbie
"All lasting wealth comes from
enriching others in some way." Brian
Tracy
There is a conflict of feelings here. I am
hesitant to
approach this subject, yet, I am in a hurry
to tell anyone
who is new to the Internet and/or Internet
marketing some of the discoveries and
lessons learned from personal
experiences. Coming to realize that the
subject is
constantly on my mind and knowing that, every
day, more
people are stumbling around out there as
targets of the
unscrupulous, I've decided to proceed with
the subject
area.
It will take some time for the
Newbie to
realize that they've been taken advantage of,
or
have received wrong/false information. The
Newbie comes into cyberspace seeking
direction, support, and
encouragement. Having no knowledge in the
area of Internet marketing places them
in the position of
having to consider anything/everything told
to them. They
have no choice but to prove each statement
made to them
to be true or false.
Then, there's the language of the
Internet. All of us
are said to be speaking English but the
average person's
vocabulary doesn't include the words (and
slang) of the
experienced Internet user. The Newbie
exists in a
state of confusion, misunderstanding and
frustration
beginning the first day of their
marketing experience.
Without previous knowledge in the area, a
Newbie can easily be misled and may
find themselves involved in
totally useless situations. Some of the
'businesses' out
there hardly qualify for the title of
'business' except by
the person who is pushing that business to
the next Newbie willing to invest.
When there is a new and uneducated person
in the area of marketing on the
internet, that
person immediately becomes a prospect
(someone likely to
purchase product or service) for every other
marketer,
website builder and how-to-do-it trainer.
Every sales technique
known to man will be used to relieve the
Newbie of
his/her money, time and energy. Is there any
wonder that
there's over 97% failure rate from those who
make a
start in the marketing field?
There are many honorable, trustworthy
people on the
Internet. Maybe the majority of
marketers are
good guys. Perhaps it's the loudness, the
ruthless
efforts, the never ending pulling at the
Newbie by
the minority of marketers that magnify
their
perceived presence on the Internet.
Regardless, the Newbie is a target who
can easily be swayed. I have developed a
maternal attitude toward Newbies and
wish to
protect them.
And so, dear Newbie, this article
is dedicated
to you.
The message to you is:
- 'Beware!', 'Look closely before you
leap'.
- 'Ask Questions'.
- 'Demand Proof'.
- 'Search Google'.
- 'Read Scam Reports'.
The advice to you is to immediately find
someone who can be trusted
and seek their advice whenever problems pop
up.
If you happen to be one of the growing
number of women
(Newbies) who are attempting to put
together their first home business, I
wish to tell you about a remarkable
Network of Internet marketers, most of
whom are
women, like yourself, who have a need, or
desire, to work from
home and who have little or no
experience.
This Networking group is working with a
profound marketing system called
$200 Per

expect:
- to personally meet the Network
members
- to be given a step by step process to

It Doesn't Have To Be Hard
It Doesn't Have to be Hard
"You cannot make excuses and money at
the same time." Dean Naylor
It finally
dawned on me that one person just cannot do
everything
alone. A successful marketing campaign is
all
inclusive. It demands concentrated,
continuous activity
and requires expertise in many areas.
Two people working in harmony can achieve
a little more, but put a total network of
like-minded people together, all working
toward the same goal with marketing chores
divided among them.....well, what do you
think? A daydream? Wishful thinking?
NO. We have exactly that network!
Together, we can achieve all. There is
expertise among us in all the marketing
areas. There's a job for everyone and
everyone working in their chosen area with

goal.

Work At Home Mom Keep Your Computer Running Fast and Clean
"Life isn't about finding yourself. It's about
creating yourself." Crazy Foxes Network of Work at Home
Moms
A computer is the major tool for the Home
Business operated by a Work at Home Mom. The
computer is a machine, and just like any other piece of
equipment, eventually it will need repair or even
replacing. We've all heard the stories about computer
crashes, slow downs, lost programs, failure to boot up,
etc. There are periodic maintenance techniques that can be
performed by the computer operator to prolong the
usefulness of the computer.
Keeping the computer clean is extremely important.
If not cleaned on a timely basis, it can bog down, run
slow, and even freeze up. An automobile reacts the same way
when denied it's periodic maintenance. The impatient
work at home mom may not enjoy taking the time to do
these things, but not doing them will cause computer
problems that delay the development of the home
business for long periods of time.
Before doing any of the maintenance procedures, backups
need to be made of the most important information stored on
the computer. Backing up the files cannot be stressed
enough. Again, the work at home may not wish to take
the time to perform backup. The home business can be
ruined is all the files are lost. The information can be
lost with no chance of recovery in an instant. Back up the
files of importance often.
There is software you can download at no cost that will
act as very good cleaners for the computer. The first
recommendation is
CCleaner.
Download, install, and run periodically to remove some of
the garbage that accumulates with everyday computer
usage.
Another piece of software that is thought highly of,
also at no cost, is
Eusing Registry Cleaner
. This is very good for speeding up the computer by
removing invalid entries from old files and software that
may have once been on the hard drive.
There are other maintenance routines that are of utmost
importance. One of these is ScanDisk, located among the
items that were installed on the computer as it was
purchased. ScanDisc scans the hard drive to recognize
errors there. Another item in maintenance is Degrag.
Running this software scans the hard disk and re-files the
fragmented files that have become scatter. Both ScanDisc
and Defrag can be found in the computer's programs, usually
in the System Tools list.
When a web page is pulled up, an image of that page is
stored in a temporary folder. That folder is called Cache.
Delete the contents of this temporary folder often for
better computer performance.
The very simple technique of restarting the computer
often during the day helps keep it running smoothly. One
major benefit from restarting the computer is that it
refreshes the memory. Deleting the cookies can also speed
up the operation.
Eliminating adware and spyware that get put into your
computer, like 'mini programs', to track your computer
activity allows for better operation and helps to maintain
your privacy. Some of these mini programs send pop up pages
that offer items for sale. This can be frustrating and
interruptive. More to the point, these mini programs can
bog down the computer and cause it to not work correctly or
even to crash.
There are good spyware and adware programs available,too
many to list here, at no cost. Here are two links that will
aid in the search for protection from these things for your
computer:
Ad-Aware and
Spybot - Search and Destroy.
There's one last area of protection should be approached
here. Firewalls and Anti-Virus programs are absolutely
necessary. It's not one world. The new work at home
mom may find it inconceivable, but, believe it or not,
there are those who delight in downloading items into
other computer that damage files or wipe out
everything stored on hard drive Other intruders
invade a computer in order to steal personal information.
Here, again, are a couple of links to begin, at no cost,
to protect your computer:
PersonalFirewall.Comodo
and
PC
Tools Anti-virus
These will keep the computer safe while the operator
decides whether to continue their use or replace them with
others. The main thing is to be protected.

Working With the Computer Computer Set up For The Work at Home Mom
Every success comes from the investment
of time, energy and money. Unknown
Today, we to speak about computers to be used by the Work at Home Mom in her home business.
Most active Internet users today were born at a time when computers had already existed for a number of years. These young people tend to take technology for granted. Those of us who were introduced to the computer at an older age remain awestruck with the computer itself and the technology which constantly comes forward to support more and more activity. There is literally no end to the operations your computer is capable of performing. Luckily, you won't need to know that much before beginning to make money on the Internet.
The Work at Home Mom should take time to know her computer well. It is the backbone of the home business. If cared for, a computer will perform well consistently. There are a number of things to consider as you use the computer whether it for personal things or for work from home.
A few sugestions for computer usage:
* Use a surge protector for plugging into the electrical outlets.
* There is a right way to turn the computer on and off. Read the manual for this information. Rebooting the computer periodically will enhance its operation.
* There is required periodic maintenance for your computer to keep it functioning properly.
* The very first thing to do when setting up the computer for use on the Internet is to find and install good virus protection. Many good programs are free. Become comfortable with one or more of these before upgrading. It has been suggested to me to install two or more different programs. The reasoning is that one good program will protect the computer in multiple ways. The second good program may work well but differently from the first. By alternating the use of two or more programs, you get the best of all worlds. Don't try to run more than one at a time as this causes conflicts within the programs and with the computer.
* The computer generates heat as it works. Keep the machine cool by having it in a properly ventalented area.
* Keep liquids, salt and sugar away from the machine. Anything spilled into the computer can do harm but these three items are especially hurtful.
* A work at home mom, may find themselves seated at the computer for long lengths of time. Avoid this as it will cause bodily harm . Find a stopping place, move around, do some bends (or housework) before getting back to a seated position. Repeat this often during your work session.
* Static electricity can build up which can cause harm to the computer. There are many ways to remove this build up. I use dryer softener sheets to wipe over the surfaces. There are many other ways, but this works for me.
* The type of internet connection you use will determine the speed with which you can use the Internet. After considering the options, you have to choose one that is right for you when thinking of your location, price, speed and what use you intend to make of the Internet. It has proven that there are periods of the day when any connection will be slower than at other times. Whenever there are huge numbers of people around the world making connections at the same time, the speed is
slower.
* A must have, for the Work at Home Mom is a good printer with lots of ink and paper.
* Most computers come with an instruction manual.
Read and practice the suggestions given there. Keep the manual handy for future reference.
* The identification numbers on your equipment, such as serial numbers and maintenance tags are important. File this information along with the warantee, so that you can get to it when needed.
* As you begin to work from home, you will be creating many password protected accounts. Be prepared for this by installing a password protection program that will record and remember these passwords for you. If a user name or password for a program is lost, it can be extremely time consuming and frustrating to gain access to your account.
* Information will be gathered constantly while working from home. This data is of great value. A computer crash causing the loss of data can be devastating. Even the best computer operators have crashes now and then. To prevent the ultimate damage -- the loss of files -- set up a system of backing up or storing your information in a second place less likely to be affected by a computer crash. There are multiple ways to perform backup. One is to periodically put the information on a cd. Another is to upload files to a Web Storage site. My particular method of back up is to save my files, periodically, to a second external hard drive used specifically for this purpose. When I complete the act of saving the information there, I disconnect it from the computer. That hard drive can be plugged into another computer if needed, or just remain available until the next back up session.
As time goes by and the use of the computer continues, you'll add more items to the list above. These will be items considered by you as nescessary to the function of your particular At Home Business.
Most of the preparatory items here have been of a physical nature. With the next posting, we plan to speak of a few basic skills in computer operation needed by the Work at Home Mom so that the experience of Working at Home can flow smoothly from one task to another.

Preparing for Work at Home Business Work at Home Moms Preparing for Home Business
"Your effort is a portrait of yourself." Unknown
Within the last posting, you were
asked to examine your attitude as a
preparation for becoming a Work at Home Mom.
We promised to suggest to you, in this posting, some
physical preparations in that direction, also.
You may be a person who is anxious to make money from home in the very near future. It's only fair to tell you point blank that financially desperate individuals are not likely candidates as Internet Marketers. The first reason is that
the financially desperate marketer will be tempted to hard sell any person within reaching distance. This action will create negative feelings from those people so that they will not be receptive to anything you may have to say in the future. Another reason is that the lack of immediate success in sales for the financially desperate marketer will create negative feelings within themselves concerning the whole marketing industry.
The new marketer must have dedication to the act of marketing, the willingness to learn from others who have been successful, and the patience of Job. So, frankly speaking, don't depend on your marketing activity for financial support until you actually begin to make money. There is money there and you will benefit largely but there is a learning curve. It takes time.
There are some physical preparations that you can make in preparation to actually performing your home business. The first, and very important, item is arrangement of your work space. Nothing elaborately expensive is needed and probably wouldn't serve your purpose, anyway.
The simplest kind of work space is the best. I used two 2-drawer filing cabinets with a piece of plywood laid on top. It is so convenient that instead of buying a larger desk when more space was needed, I just bought another 2- drawer filing cabinet along with another piece of plywood and made an L shaped workspace. It's great. That takes care of desktop space and drawer space. Add a simple wall hung shelving unit and you're work space is complete.
A comfortable, healthy chair is a must. You may have to spend $100 or more, depending on how difficult you are to fit, but you cannot skimp on the chair. You'll work your home business for hours from there. You’ll actually do yourself physical harm if the chair doesn't allow you correct posture while sitting.
This work space must be located in a well ventilated, well lit area. Your eyes will become strained if the lighting is not sufficient or if there is a glare from the computer screen. Ventilation is important because you will want to practice deep breathing exercises while working. This helps to abate fatigue. It also relaxes tight muscles and aids in keeping correct posture. Another very good reason for good ventilation is the heat put off by the computer. Heat will harm your computer. It needs to remain as cool as possible. You may even consider placing a small fan close by the computer to circulate the air better.
The next posting for our Work at Home Moms will speak of the computer used in you home business.

Networking with Integrity Work at Home Moms
Network Marketing with Integrity
"The secret of success is consistency of
purpose." Benjamin Disraeli
There is a group of work at home moms who are
committed to a continuing project of helping
individuals to build a life filled with health, wealth,
and happiness. Their primary purpose is to expose
others to an approach to Internet marketing that is
proving successful when used correctly in its step by
step fashion. This method of Internet marketing allows
learning as you earn by having each participant follow
detailed, foundation building, instructions. The
result has been satisfaction and reward for those who
are wholeheartedly participating in the project.
The network group for this group of work at home
moms is called the Crazy Foxes. They began with an
idea and a group of like minded individuals working
toward the specific goal of marketing successfully with
integrity. Presently, the Crazy Foxes are publicizing
their existence and encouraging the participation of
other people who share a common interest in the
$200Blueprint program.
The Crazy Foxes are collecting meaningful
information for the work at home moms. This
information is published by the network to educate
people within the group about a method of marketing
that allows equal opportunity for success to those new
to the marketing world as well as to those who have
prior experience. Each person choosing to be part of
the Crazy Fox network agrees to follow standard
guidelines. These guidelines, or blueprints, take every
person through the same set of activities and leading
to a successful experience in marketing.
The network is growing daily. Individuals are
finding it desirable to be part of a group that has
integrity as a foundation on which to build their
marketing skills. The group is evolving into a
structured organization in which the members,
themselves, produce the expertise and training needed
by the less experienced members. A common goal with
shared responsibility to produce financial reward for
each participating member is molding a unique
personality for the network. It is the sincere desire
of the work at home moms who are networking with
the Crazy Foxes that each member will go forward in
time with experiences leading to health, wealth and
happiness.

Believing to make it Happen Work At Home Mom
"Believing in something means being fully committed." Unknown
As a person desiring to begin working from home in order to make extra money, you may be surprised to find that the next step in moving toward your goal is not a physical activity. The next step is to check your attitude and adjust it if necessary. Your attitude, the way you approach situations, the way you respond to other people, the amount of self discipline you possess, the belief you have in yourself and in what you're about to do -- these are the foundation stones upon which yourwork at home business will be built.
The fact is that these building stones are not laid down by physical activity, but are put into place by thought and mental manipulation of ideas. This is an awakening time for many people approaching the work at home industry. They have to come to terms with the belief that nothing physical exists without first having been a thought. The builder of a successful work at home business comes to an understanding, that the thought, the mental design of the business, the plan for action derived from the thinking process, the clear mental image of the business built and functioning as the builder desires -- this is the strength of the business. Success or failure for any work at home mom depends her attitude.
A person has it within themselves to create a proper attitude. As with any new experience, this may feel strange or awkward in the beginning. Again, as with any new experience, the repetitious actions of performing the activity will soon become a part of the way you think.
Each time wakefulness occurs is the correct time to set the mood for the day to come, to count our blessings, to seek support and guidance from our Higher Power, to prioritize those tasks to be done, to set our faces into a smile, to hold our head high, and to step boldly, with confidence, into the first day of the rest of our lives.
Whatever your daily routine requires of you, wake up time is exactly when to set the mood for the coming day. Decisions are made to have a good day. An attitude of gratitude is assumed. Strength is gathered to accomplish the tasks of the day.
Release the joy residing inside and let a smile brighten the surrounding space. Rise up with a straight back, head high. Step boldly into the day which is there to be lived filled with happiness in simply being alive.
These things are not always done easily. It may take practice. A need for reminders may exist. But, not doing these things consistently can lead to failure, not only in the work at home business you are attempting to build but in living life happily to the fullest extent.
Having a good life is a decision. Define your good life. Decide to have it. Begin to put things, ideas, attitudes, actions, even other people, into the proper positions to let your good life happen. Good life, as well as a successful work at home business, is not an accident. It doesn't just happen. A good life is a way of living which comes from decisions being made and actions being taken that create the goodness in the life being lived.
You create your life -- it's all about being happy, healthy and wealthy. All these elements are tied together. The secret for being happy is inside you, just as is the key to being healthy. The word, wealthy, is a relative term but, again, the knowledge of how to become wealth is already inside you.
Life -- the living of it -- is the greatest of all educators. Our failed efforts in being happy, healthy or wealthy have created priceless knowledge for our use in the next effort.
With the assumption that your attitude is in good shape for building the life you desire and the work from home businesses you want, we plan to begin some actual physical activity in that direction with our next post.

Preparation for Work at Home Moms Work At Home Moms
"We become what we think about." Veretekk
Our last posting left us at the point where work at home moms had discovered that there were ways in which they could maintain their role as a stay at home mom while also contributing to the financial stability of the family. It was suggested that a Google search for information relating to working from home could possibly answer some questions. A warning may have been in order about getting too much information too early in the decision making process. One comes into contact with conflicting and misleading information that causes much frustration and confusion for someone just beginning to investigate the possibilities of working from home subject.
The decision to make money, and to do that by makeing money from home, should not be entered into lightly. One should first research to answer questions about the demands and the rewards that come with working from home to make money. While researching, one needs to become acquainted with the various opportunities and types of activities performed by others who have work from home careers.
There are many legitamate work at home jobs. Research can bring you face to face with a work at home business opportunity that suits your personality, your physical abilities and your level of mental stamina. Once you have
become comfortable with work at home ideas, you can investigate more completely the demands placed on you and your family as you are deciding on a particular work at home business.
Our next posting will be based on the assumption that you have investigated possibilities and have made a decision concerning your ability and desire to make money by working from home.
There will be, also, an assumption that you made a positive decision and are now attempting to discover what to do first. We will be offering information that will help you to move into the work at home world with as little difficulty as possible.

Stay at Home or Work at Home?? Work at Home Mom
If this article seems somewhat slanted toward the
interest of women, it is. It's about women, especially the
work at home Moms, and some of the challenges faced
by them in a world where responsibility and even survival
rests upon their shoulders.
We're called 'stay at home Moms' but the actual
terminology should be Work at home Moms. For one
reason or another we've stepped away from salaried, public
occupations that the conventional population consider
security. We've come home to take care of family needs, or
because we experienced health problems, or our company
decided to downsize, or the ridiculous situation of the act
of working costsit us more than we received in pay. There
are lots of reasons why we found ourselves at home.
Being at home, away from the JOB, may have solved a few
of the problems with which we were dealing. Now, we find a
whole new batch of challenges, the biggest of which may be
our financial status.
So, here we are. We're at home. We work at home
in rearing children, caring for parents, cooking, cleaning,
inventing entertainment, crating a good home environment,
nurturing the flower garden, feeding the pets, and
tightening the purse strings because we are earning no
money. Working from home, as in wife, mother,
homemaker, house keeper, etc., may have been a romantic
idea but it may not be financially feasible.
How can that situation be fixed? Women, worldwide, have
found a way. Being a work at home Mom now has a
double meaning. Mom can take care of the home and she can
solve the financial problems while doing it.
Hopefully, you'll join us for the next posting event of
Work at Home Moms when we will begin a journey into
financial independence as we work from home. Other
information concerning work at home is available to
you easily by searching Google.
