Doing It His Way May Be Your Way!

Doing It His Way May Be Your Way! 

I need to let you in on a dirty little secret. Yes it’s dirty talk but it’s about the sweet smell of dirt success that I am able to smell a mile away from any other dirty business that my entrepreneur instincts have happened across in my own 35+ year entrepreneur background.
Law of averages is enhanced dramatically when a genuine interest in finding a business of your own causes a change in the way you think. From the instant that you thought about the possibility of starting your own business, a certain law in the Universe is activated. It’s a well known law but one very few understand or even believe that it exists.
My dirty little secret, one of them, I have more than one, It exists and it is as real as all the scientific evidence that the vast Universe exists and is ever expanding. I’m a product of that knowledge and it’s responsible for some very dramatic changes in my life since 2000 shortly after I turned 53 and I’m 65 at the time of this writing. I’ve owned my own business since 1978.
The Law is the Law of Attraction. Whatever you think about the most is drawn to you. The only flaw in this Law is solely your variables. What is it that you are truly wanting? Is it a business of your own, then you shall have one. Is it a successful business of your own that you are wanting? Then you shall have that as well, but, you knew their just had to be a ‘but’.
Are you afraid of success, sort of, kind of? Deep down if you have this little nagging fear of how it might negatively change your life, then if you are not careful of what you think about the most….zap, you are going to get that too. A business you may find but not a successful one.
Another common fear is the costs associated with a business of your own. The more you think that thought the more thoughts just like it will be drawn to your thoughts and the only way to get off that train of thoughts is to be self confident of what you really want in a business, what you really have as a budget and those types of business offerings will almost magically begin showing up for your review.
Don’t be alarmed if you are thinking this is some form of hocus pocus. That is another dirty little secret now revealed. You may find it hard to believe but you were drawn to this article, not by chance but by the Law of Attraction because it somehow fits your thoughts perfectly.
If you choose not to continue reading this article, you may want to click on the link: www.moneyfromdirt.com to at least understand the unique marketing plan that is behind Shawn’s concept. This is a genuine Guide offering from a sincere individual who obviously loves what he has accomplished and presents it in a way to the budget conscious and to the level of support they need for their own definition of success.
At first glance, especially if you have been browsing for business opportunities, you think this is yet another house cleaning business. It’s about you giving thought to your own commercial janitorial business. Commercial rings the register differently and Shawn will efficiently and quickly explain why and what level of extra income you can expect working just a few hours in an evening that won’t interfere with your regular daytime job until you want it to.
You don’t have to be afraid to click on the link I reference. Your browser will open up a quality, very easy to understand website that is unique in an offering that is so dirt cheap reasonable and requires no opt in forms to learn about the system. You would expect a hard hitting sales page that goes on and on and on with enough bullet points to literally insult your intelligence and make you feel like Swiss cheese. It’s not what you want, the Universe is listening.
I’m in the marketing and sales business and I am impressed that Shawn has a viable business that he wants to share with you and it’s about a Janitorial Commercial Cleaning business that he himself successfully grew into. He has no greedy desire to sell franchises. His start up and operational guide is so reasonable and you can optionally request having a monthly consulting package to hold your hand to lean on and help grow your new business.
This is not about selling you on the business. In your quest in checking out a business of your own you probably have already seen dozens of national cleaning companies wanting you to join their team. Remember I said you were drawn to this article/post because you already know you want to start a business but for whatever is the real reason that you don’t have one yet, it is because this law of attraction thing. This may be the link that sets your minding thinking in an entirely new direction. www.MoneyFromDirt.com

Choosing An Online Business Opportunity

Choosing An Online Business Opportunity

So you are looking for an online business opportunity. Are you overwhelmed yet? As soon as you began typing in
search phrases like “home-based business”, “working from home opportunities” and “affiliate marketing programs” it
can seem like the list just keeps growing. Your e-mail box starts filling up with offers that seem too good to be
true to say the least. Where do you start? What do you look for when considering an online home based business
opportunity? Should you go with affiliate marketing or network marketing? The questions also can seem to pile
up as every new program seems to spur new questions.
Passion
The first and foremost consideration is that you choose a program that you are passionate about. Trust your gut.
Does that opportunity excite you and make you want to work the business? This is important because to succeed you
are going to have to work hard. 
Product or Service
What product or service is being sold? Is it a product or service that you would buy? Is there good customer
service? Is there a demand for it? These are great questions because without sales you aren’t going to make any
money online. It is all about sales. It is a one-time sales or recurring?
Commissions
How much money do you make per sale? How often are you paid? Many online marketers prefer to promote businesses
that pay a recurring monthly commission. This is the best way to build up a nice residual income. 
Is the commission or profit substantial enough to allow you to spend money on advertising?
Marketing System
If you are like most people just getting starting with online business you probably do not know a lot about
marketing or advertising. Many business opportunities online provide marketing training through ongoing webinars
as well as written materials. You also want to find a program that has a built in system for marketing the
business. There are many opportunities online that have all of the tools that you need already in place and all
you have to do is plug into the system. That is probably one of the most important aspects of a great opportunity.
Support
The final thing you want to look for is does the company provide support for their affiliates. If you have
questions or problems can you reach out to someone and expect to get help. Do they have customer service or
support by telephone or e-mail or help desk. Many companies provide all of the above. Be sure to ask questions
before you get signed up.

Independent Music LA 1 Year Anniversary

Independent Music LA 1 Year Anniversary

INDEPENDENT MUSIC LA ROLLS TO ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY,
SET TO ROCK HOUSE OF BLUES WITH BREAKTHROUGH BANDS

HOLLYWOOD, CA (June 10, 2013) – Independent Music LA has been climbing the charts the past twelve months with its unique blend of networking mixers that have created a new format in the recording industry. Set to hit the Main Stage at the legendary House of Blues Sunset Strip Thursday, June 13th, the one-year anniversary gathering will celebrate a rare achievement in the competitive field of indie rock music: lasting relationships.

Since July 2012 industry execs and their creative counterparts have turned the famed Viper Room and House of Blues Foundation Room into a networking hot spot while they searched for the next big thing. The original concept was to bring together record labels, producers, promoters, photographers, and bands without representation to make valuable connections in an environment that fosters new relationships and inspires creative projects; a year later those relationships have taken hold and a new way of doing business has emerged.

What is normally perceived as privileged and insider information has been shared freely by the frequent guest speakers with serious street cred, including: Geordie Gillespie, Record Label Executive (Virgin, Hollywood, Sony Records); Picazzo Stevens, Radio Programmer (KVYB, KDHT, KISV); Skip Saylor, Producer (Guns n Roses, Foo Fighters, Santana); Ken Lucek, Record Label Executive (Warner Bros, Capitol, Jive); Marc Benadout, Video Director/Producer (500+ commercials and music videos); Haskel Jackson, Producer (7x Grammy Nominee); and Yogi Lonich, Guitar Player (Wallflowers, Buck Cherry, Chris Cornell). By attracting the industry’s heavyweights, Independent Music LA has showcased a slew of emerging bands rising above the Sunset Strip circuit including Stereo Scenario, Devil In Drag, Cameron Rafati, Exist Elsewhere, Tina Vonn and Davina Leone as well as international artists Empra (Australia) and Iron Kite (China.)

Sponsored by ultra-hip T-shirt collective and unique retail store Pop Killer and celebrity-favorite headphones Boomphones, Thursday night’s event will offer performances by Exist Elsewhere, Uniform Standard, Tina Vonn, Blind Owl, Tomi Townsend and 4 Billion Souls that will deliver proof positive of the mixer’s success.

Don’t touch that dial -Independent Music LA is already amping up for a second year of successful mixers showcasing the best talent L.A. has to offer. For more information on times, dates and bands, please contact Angel City Entertainment.

Angel City Entertainment and Surge Event, in partnership with Independent Music LA, are pleased to announce their one year anniversary event on Thursday, June 13th at 7 pm at House of Blues, 8430 Sunset Boulevard

The Model and The Opportunity

The Model and The Opportunity
321350_10151369554430633_288402220_n
We learned about marketing. We learned about sales. We even understood a little about personal branding.
We post on Facebook, advertise events, tell the world about our virtues and yet, big opportunities do not seem to present themselves.
We go to a job interview, where there is an opportunity… And nothing happens.
We meet someone “important” and another big opportunity seems to be in front of us… And still, nothing happens.
So what is the skill we need for developing our business and career?
The answer is the skill of managing opportunities; a skill which demands clever training and cannot be acquired during a four-hour workshop.
This skill can only be acquired through learning from a master in this field.
Here is the story of a person who is well skilled at managing opportunities and contacts. This person is me, but it can definitely be your story.
A good friend of mine met a guest from abroad and told him: “I’d like to introduce you to Opher, he is an expert in this.”
We met at a local restaurant, developed a warm personal connection and understood each other’s needs.
This guy contacted his partner and next thing I knew, I received an invitation to Los Angeles for coffee… So I travelled to LA.
I met the guy, who is one of the marketing geniuses of our time.
We developed a warm personal connection and understood each other’s needs.
In the following six years, I helped him manage his professional and personal opportunities… I was his mentor.
He introduced me to some of his friends. One particular friend became a close friend of mine and we understood each other’s needs.
Three years later, this guy asked me to meet two of his friends at the Hilton hotel in Tel Aviv for coffee, so I went. We developed a warm personal connection and understood each other’s needs.
Hold on, don’t quit on me now. You must read this story through to get to the surprise and the insight.
Three months ago, these two friends introduced me to a business man who needs advice onSkype. We developed a warm personal connection and understood each other’s needs. I said to him: “Let’s meet”. He replied: “I live on the island near Spain.” I said: “Are you free this weekend? I’ll come by and we can grab something to eat.” “This Saturday is not really convenient…”, he said, “How about meeting in London next week?” And since I love spontaneity, I said: “See you there.”
So there I was, in London, with my girlfriend, Maya. We went to a party, where many important people mingled. Maya said to me: “Opher, you are the king of networking. Why aren’t you making rounds and handing out your business cards?”
My reply was simple: “Maya dear, I told you this is not my method. When I know who the right person is in this room,  you will see me managing the opportunity.”
And so it was.
I heard a person behind me say something which made it clear to me beyond any doubt: this was the right person!
I came up to him and within 30 seconds, we made arrangements to meet for breakfast the next morning. We met… We developed a warm personal connection and understood each other’s needs.
A week later, I returned to London to advise his company. I met ten crucial business people in the London business scene, developed warm personal connections with each one and understood their needs, just as they understood mine.
Two weeks before my London visits, a friend in Germany introduced me to another friend of his. We met in Israel, developed a warm personal connection and understood each other’s needs.
A week ago, after meeting in London as well, I visited this friend of a friend in Germany. He organized for me the opportunity to give two lectures to the right people: 200 business people and 70 musicians. I met more people, we developed warm personal connections and understood each other’s needs.
Many opportunities opened before me: 26 new potential projects in five different European countries, as well as in Canada.
Now the most crucial thing is to manage these opportunities correctly… And that’s exactly what I have been doing during the last three days.
By the way, because of the large number of new projects abroad, I will not be teaching any courses in our CareerSchool during the coming year. A final and wonderful class will graduate next week.
Those who wish to learn how to manage opportunities will have to do it through personal work with me. But I can only work with a limited number of new clients, so please write to me only if you are very serious about it and I will explain to you how the process works. My address is:
I also invite you to check my new website. Take a look and share your comments, ideas and insights with me.
Thank you.
Opher

Is The Lack of Character Building Education The Reason Violence Happens?

Is The Lack of Character Building Education The Reason Violence Happens?


Lack of Character Values
There is a certain amusement to the media, a quasi return to Vaudevillian entertainment. Two cases illustrate this perfectly and highlight the critical need to protect and guide our own children instilling strong values and filtering the nonsensical environment we live in.
On April 15, during the Boston Marathon, two terrorists detonated homemade bombs horribly marring hundreds of people and killing three. There vile actions led to a focused manhunt and resulted in a shootout. One suspect was killed during the shootout, the other eventually wounded and taken into custody. While these actions are understood to be reprehensible and evil it is the reactions and behaviors of the parents that are truly remarkable. Driven by an insane need to demonize the American response and reaction the Bombing, the parents have insisted their children are innocent (one survived the shootout and is now recovering), were brainwashed, or were targeted by the FBI.
It is clear the parents of the Bombing suspects failed their children. They failed to teach their children basic respect for life. Instead these parents opted for the cowardly approach of shifting attention and focus elsewhere, anywhere but at themselves.
Character education must begin with an honest look at one’s self and the recognition of shortcomings that need to be addressed. Without taking responsibility for one’s own actions the result is selfish people of this nature bent on the destruction of neighbors and those around them. People of this caliber are not safe and foster violence sue to their unpredictability and irrational behavior.
Irrational behavior is a vulgar and shocking way of life for the parishioners of the Westboro Baptist Church. Filled almost exclusively by the Phelps family, the WestboroBaptistChurch is a shouting example of what every Christian, every religious person, every person of rational thought should not become. The Phelps family are notorious for their picketing of soldier’s funerals and other prominent and tragic events proudly claiming to have picketed over 50,000 events since 1991. Their message is a horrible proclamation of God’s judgments on the Earth due to homosexuality and other rebellious acts.
Westboro Babtist church
These two families represent an absolute failure of parenting and have enjoyed a cowardly approach to raising their children. Parental influence on their children is obvious. The Westboro family defies common sense and immerses themselves in emotionally corrosive behavior. The parents of the Boston Bombing suspects are quick to promote the innocence of their children by labeling the response of law enforcement as evil. They take no responsibilities for their actions.
These are extreme examples of a family’s stubborn unwillingness to educate their children with appropriate character traits. Appropriate is a subjective word, that much is understood. What is not understood is any argument that is contrary to the effectiveness service and responsibility have in developing character and people of value, willing and capable leaders.
Young Family Having Fun In Park
For parents it ultimately comes down to choice. As a parent do you dodge responsibility and paint your child a victim of an oppressive and tyrannical government despite the trauma they have inflicted or do you raise children with values that better not only themselves but society as a whole? Do you revel in the sewage and pollution of vitriol and corrosion that is WestboroBaptistChurch or do you raise your child to frame their opposition with respect and effectiveness? As a parent do you leave a gift of worth found in an effectively raised child or do you allow yourself to be a mockery like the parents of the Boston City Bombings or the WestboroBaptistChurch? These are the decisions parents face. These are the consequences of raising children without appropriate character and values. The question stands: as a parent what choice will you make?

Creator of the Children’s Book Series Traveling Bear Christian Hainsworth says, “Children learn most of their lifelong behaviors and beliefs between the ages of 3-8. This makes character building an absolutely ESSENTIAL part of raising children to instill core values like: Responsibility for self, having a positive attitude, and learning to work with others.”

Top 10 Spanish Schools in Granada Nicaragua By - Raúl Gavarrette O

Top 10 Spanish Schools in Granada Nicaragua By - Raúl Gavarrette O

Long has been the path since the early 80´s first Spanish language schools in Nicaragua opened in the northern Estelí Nicaraguan province. This self-sustainable clean industry has experienced a boom over the last years since late 90´s, particularly in Granada downtown, the first colonial city in Nicaragua. At the present, Granada has a growing network of independent Spanish language schools which through the years have gained experience and reputation among the increasing number of visitors that choose Nicaragua as a safe Central American country to visit.  Studying Spanish is a good option while visiting the country. Those who are planning or have already decided to visit Nicaragua should explore the possibility to make a great combination of a vacation trip with a few days, a couple of weeks, or even months of Spanish language study in Granada.

With so many new schools opening every year in this colonial city, it is someway kind of difficult to choose a Spanish school in Granada to study. It depends on the interests or what you are looking for and how much you want to spend. In the city streets you will find people not necessarily teachers, offering Spanish lessons in Granada for a few cents mostly for economic reasons. You cannot expect good quality from them. Perhaps if you just want to learn some Spanish words by heard and do not want to spend much this could be an option.   

Most of the Spanish schools in Granada offer a mixture of language instruction, volunteer opportunities and excursions to nearby destinations which include crater lakes, boat tours, cigar factories, and walking city tours. Lodging with local families in Granada is also included in the Spanish studies packets offered by the language schools. Each school has different prices for the Spanish courses ranging between $250 and $350 for a week. This mainly depends on the kind of course you choose and the quality of services they offer. The more weeks you take the cheaper you get. If you are seriously considering learning Spanish in Granada Nicaragua, having fun, experiencing the culture and enjoying the surroundings and the beautiful nature, you should have a look at these ten top Granada Spanish schools mentioned in this article. These are the Spanish language schools that have stood out for their reputation and experience, for their ethic and honesty, and the professionalism of the business.

1. Granada Spanish School (http://www.nicaragua-spanish-lessons.com) is an independent language school located in Granada downtown a few blocks from the Central Plaza, in the surroundings of Xalteva Church, formerly situated in Convento San Francisco. This school offers Spanish immersion courses, one-on-one lessons and in small groups from basic beginners to advanced superior levels. The courses are combined with amazing afternoon excursions to local destinations which include nature reserves, national parks, crater lakes, boat tours in Lake Cocibolca; visits to open markets, handicraft factories, active and dormant volcanoes. This Nicaraguan Spanish language school offers also Spanish and Ceramic courses; Medical Spanish courses; Spanish for College students; Spanish for High School teachers and Online Spanish lessons. Homestay with friendly families is included in the course packet; all included packets. Most of the teachers speak English but they use it only when it is necessary or requested. The maximum size of the class is four students but average size is one-two students per class. Class material is provided. Spanish instruction is usually Monday to Friday all year round opening every Monday but any student can start any day of the week according to personal schedule on arrival. Students are offered to study one week course as minimum length but can take as many weeks as desired. Airport pickup from Managua to Granada is available if requested. Volunteering is also possible previous request. The staff is very enthusiastic and dynamic. The Director and his Administrative Assistant are also very nice.
