Byron katie has such a good way of ending the internal suffering which a lot of us tend to impose upon our selves.
I love the way she handles these situations. She calls them enquirys.
It’s worth watching the video and then going to her website and downloading a mini sample of her book “The Work”.
Yes I’ve done it.

Internet Maketing, Blogging, You Tube, Web 2.0…..
Seems like just everybody is swinging along making a fortune on the Internet. I’ve only just begun to wake up to the opportunity. Observing and heeding alll the guru advice I realise more and more the incredible chances that are out there. As I mentioned on the Sweetie Blog Frank Kern’s videos have been eye opening. You just need to follow the advice. Dang. So easy you just gotta want it badly enough so that you’ll get off your bum and do it.
Of course it’s not that easy especially when you’re surrounded by skeptics. Those are usually the ones closest to you. The unbelievers - you know the ones that say wake up and get a real job. A job where you trade your time for muney. Possibly even have to leave your home.
Why even have a house and a place you love if you go out to slave away each day? I’ve always wanted something better for myself since I was a kid. I couldn’t accept the information that was being pushed down my throat that “Life sucks and then you die”. That to me just seemed like a cruel joke.
When I spoke about my aspirations the people that were doing their best for me, commonly known as parents (God, I love them) I was told it’s good to learn something which will be useful to society. Don’t get me wrong Dr’s, Teachers, Advertising specialists all have their place. And as for the cruel joke part, I was told to not take it personally. But I did. Very.
I myself was in the advertising and movie industry for years. I’ve had the priviledge of working with wonderful people.
But the stress of being away from home albeit often in the most gorgeous locations was not ideal anymore after 2 miniture people surfaced into my reality.
So going from a job and here and there to sometimes having very little I had to readjust.
Obviously I began searching for information on how to make life more fun and rewarding and to be there for my little mensches. So at about the same time I discovered the metaphysical side of life and the internet dream things looked like life could really be a joy.
I am amazed and grateful for all the excellent information out there. It only requires listening, focusing and implementing the stuff you learn about to see how you can get e-mails telling you you’ve just made a buck. Gotta love it!

Do you remember that Pink Floyd song called Time on that wonderful Album Dark Side of the Moon? Gawd I’m giving away my age here! Well yeah I’m 44 and I love it. I don’t wanna be 16 again. But I’m wandering off the point again
I realise more and more each day that time is most valuable asset- because time is all you’ve got if you haven’t got time you’ve got nothing. When your time has run out- you’re dead and that’s it. Maybe there is a life after death but what about now? This time, this moment. Time is ticking away, read the Pink Floyd lyrics with my comments.
Time by Pink Floyd from the Album Dark Side of the Moon
Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day,
You fritter and waste the hours in an off hand way - are you guilty of this?
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town.
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way - no you aren’t are you? cos if you are I feel sorry for you- wake up now!Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today - don’t kill time today, live it, savor it enjoy it and make the most of it. Take action on doing something.
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you- Uuooh uuh this is whereI see panic set in people trying to “make it” financially because panic about money has struck them, never mind things like not having lived to your full potential. Scary!
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun - Well not to late, I believe in that saying today is the first day of the rest of your life.And you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but its sinking
And racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in the relative way, but youre older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to deathEvery year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the english way
The time is gone, the song is over, thought I’d have something more to say
Home, home again
I like to be here when I can
And when I come home cold and tired
Its good to warm my bones beside the fire
Far away across the field
The tolling of the iron bell
Calls the faithful to their knees
To hear the softly spoken magic spells.
Yeah treasure your time, use it wisely. Teach your kids time being an assest. I won’t tolerate boredness. There is yourself to discover, a world to befriend, piles of abundance to gather and love galore - just waiting. Do it now. Write that book, sing that song. Do it. Make the time.
And you know what I think is great?
Seeing a Pink Floyd performance. It’s wonderful to see aged men still playing electric guitar - men that have lived doing what they love and are still doing it. Now how many people can say they do what they love? No excuses please.
And if you don’t know who Pink Floyd are or don’t own an album then now’s the time to investigate. Pink Floyd is timeless. My pubertising 13 year olds even appreciate them.

The payment of procrastination
Check out those above items and figure out what you’re paying by procrastinating.There are emotional costs. Health costs. Relationship costs. Financial costs. Time costs. Self-image costs.
Seriously look at what you’re paying long term by not doing what you should be doing.
If you are truthful, you’ll know that your proocrastination could be taking from 5 years to as many as 40 years off your life.
That is because people who put off living a healthy lifestyle and who are petrified of doctors are today dying of cancers, heart disease and other maladies in their 40’s, 30’s and younger… all senselessly.
You probably also acknowledged that your career and finances have suffered. Because if you are not a true do-it-now person, your employer or your prospective customers aren’t throwing money at your feet. And if you’ve put off investing for the future, you’ve lost a whole lot of compound interest… thousands, maybe hundreds of thousands or more.
If you are a procrastinator, and you are really up front with yourself, you know now that your relationships have suffered. You don’t have as many friends as you’d like. Because when you procrastinate doing things that affect others (and almost everything you do affects other people in one way or another), there is a loss of trust and closeness.
So the procrastinating habit puts a negative mark on your character.
It negatively affects your self-image.
Procrastination is a mental blocker, it means your subconsciuos mind and conscious mind aren’t in agreement about what should be done.
It’s not the end of the world because you can change it quite simply by reprogramming that rebellios part of you.

I’m not the most focused person on the planet. In fact somes I battle to stay focused. Take small things like Twitter or Facebook. Excellent tools that can be used for marketing, or even blogging. Then why is it so darn difficult to stay focused doing simple things like blogging?
I’m using only myself as an example here. I love writing. I jot down things all the time. Now if I were to type these notes into my blog they’d probabally make for interesting reading. And i dare say that they may even help some individuals have an AHA moment if you know what I mean.
I reckon my biggest blocker is fear. I can’t quite pinpoint the exact fear. Is it the fear of failing, or the fear of coming across like an idiot?
Perhaps I should just stop comparing my creative dribblings to what others do. Some blogs are so well written and informative. Whose to say that mine isn’t, hey? maybe it’s an inferiority complex.
I’ve discovered though that the main thing to staying on target is to get a clear vision of what you want and keep refining that vision until it just feels so perfect that you can’t but help to follow through.
Myself I’ve been blogging on and off for 2 years now. Sometimes in a burst of inspiration I’ll do it regurlary for 2 weeks and then those 2 weeks fade into 2 months. This is not good, these habits need to be dissolved.
I’ve always known that there is a fortune to be made in the internet- okay let’s get real, at least a decent income. An income that can be earned from home. I’ve read all the e-books, joined the membership sites of list building, traffic generating and bla, bla…..
Now it’s about doing it. Just getting a laser sharp focus and DOING it. Just do it.
How does your focus rate?
Some times we loose focus because our vision is not quite on target with what we really want so our subconscious mind keeps us from getting what we want till we hit on the right vision. (I read all this stuff whilst searching for my blockers).
The same principle thats behind procrastination - loosing focus is a form of procrastination. It’s a thing that stops you from going out and striking your target. You know you should be doing something to hit on the target but you don’t. Then you miss your target and you land up feeling like a failure berating your self.

I discovered an amazing e-book by Stuart Lichtman.
The book it’s self has a title which at first came across as kind of cheesy. But I’m so glad that this didn’t hold me back from reading further.
When I began reading testimonials from my favorite mentors I knew I was onto some thing.
In fact I could hardly contain my excitement. I was happy to pay the price of $79,50
Here’s what Jim Edwards has to say:
“Stuart’s technique imprinted my goal indelibly on my subconscious mind. I don’t think about it, but it’s always there. Everything I’m doing is measured by whether or not I’m moving toward or against my goal. If I’m not doing something moving me towards my goal, my subconscious gets me back on course.
“This is truly a breakthrough for me personally. I am 100% certain I will achieve a bigger financial goal in a shorter time frame than I would have ever thought possible before I learned this technique.
The only negative about this method is, it’s so straightforward, some people may actually discount its power!”

I’ll explain it to you as best as I can.
Basically Stuart asks you to keep writing your vision and editing till it feels just perfect - like part of your life. It’s like getting in touch with yourself.
Like having a warm shower in the morning - I love my showers. I hope you get the drift of what I’m getting across.
It’s a long process, not just some little exercise you can do in 15 minutes. You have to put time aside for this to be able to do it properly. Wait for your kids to go to school before you start.
The e-book comes with audios which literally walk you through the process, but as I said make time.
Aaah, that cheesy title:
How to Get Lots of Money for Anything Fast

Here’s what Jack Canfield has to say:
“I strongly recommend this book. It contains keys to success that will guide you past obstacles you thought were insurmountable. I’ve known Stuart Lichtman a long time; his material gets people results. If you have big goals and you’re looking for that one ‘missing piece’ to help you achieve them, read this book and put its solid ideas to work for you.”
