SPRING!

Spring Pools by Robert Frost
These pools that, though in forests, still reflect
The total sky almost without defect,
And like the flowers beside them, chill and shiver,
Will like the flowers beside them soon be gone,
And yet not out by any brook or river,
But up by roots to bring dark foliage on.
The trees that have it in their pent-up buds
To darken nature and be summer woods --
Let them think twice before they use their powers
To blot out and drink up and sweep away
These flowery waters and these watery flowers
From snow that melted only yesterday.

ACCORDING TO LIFE

Awaken the Leader in You: 10 Easy Steps, © Sharif Khan

Many motivational experts like to say that leaders are made, not born. I would argue the exact opposite. I believe we are all natural born leaders, but have been deprogrammed along the way. As children, we were natural leaders - curious and humble, always hungry and thirsty for knowledge, with an incredibly vivid imagination; we knew exactly what we wanted, were persistent and determined in getting what we wanted, and had the ability to motivate, inspire, and influence everyone around us to help us in accomplishing our mission. So why is this so difficult to do as adults? What happened?

Learning from the Death of a Loved One, © Robert Najemy

The death of a loved one is considered to be our most painful life experience. Many of us would prefer to die ourselves rather than face life without someone who meant so much to us.

If, however, we accept that life is a school, and that every experience is an opportunity to move forward on our evolutionary path, there will be some very useful lessons to be gained even in this most unpleasant experience.
Let us look at some of them.

Selling Information On The Internet, © Robert Farey

You want to make some money? Sell something. The biggest seller on the net is information, or info-products, as they are often called.

Info-products cover a wide range of sales, from small scraps of time-sensitive information, through news-sheets and regular newsletters, all the way up to full sized electronic books.

The beauty of it is that there is no stock-holding to bother about. You don' t need to fill the spare room with mounds of paperbacks. All that you need is a little space on your hard disc to store the files and a way of passing on copies of these files to your customers.

ARTICLES


Getting to Know Your Inner Goddess, © Michelle Casto

In ancient Greece there were many specially chosen Goddesses that were worshipped and revered for their beauty and boldness. To name a few----Aphrodite, Athena, Artemis, Demeter, and Persephone---each with a domain to oversee. Goddesses reigned over relationships. Highly spirited, they could be quite brutal if crossed and were not averse to seeking revenge if wronged.

In the 21st century, the idea of a Goddess is becoming more universally accepted, with the added benefit that every woman has the right to be a Goddess in her own world.
