Are you thinking of writing a book or eBook?

Are you going to write a book?

Are you thinking of writing a book or eBook? I know I am! Scott Berkun has a website at

http://www.scottberkun.com/ and the best thing is he is so honest about everything on his site. He tells it “like it is.” For example if you have a passion about a topic or subject then he suggested that you should know that IS a great idea for a book. Here is his article http://www.scottberkun.com/blog/2010/is-your-book-idea-good/. I didn’t even know he had a website until today.

Freshly Pressed Blogger

http://doublewordscore.wordpress.com/about/

Some years ago I took a class that focused on self-actualization through meditation, astral projection, past life regression, and the like.

During the last class, the teacher told me I was the most self-defeating person she ever met.

I laughed it off, figuring my tradition of showing up drunk to the Friday afternoon session irked her, or maybe my chakras were out of alignment.

Now that I’m unemployed and in my 30s, I wonder if she was on to something.

Here is a fellow bloggers comment:

Congratulations on being Freshly Pressed – I enjoyed your post about interviews. I have written a few posts on the same subject, including my suggestions on how NOT to interview people! Job hunting – which I have to do at the moment – is my least fun activity in the world. Good luck with your search!
Sunshine

Congratulations!

POST #46 Who is Mark Silver?

heartofbusiness.com/needs-to-think-about-it/

Mark Silver

 

“A History of the Heart” by Mark Silver

Heart of Business began life as Success by Design in 1999, an enterprise which helped entrepreneurs create marketing that felt clean, was effective, and yet was authentic and felt like them.

It soon became obvious that designing marketing materials was much more about coaching the client into his or her heart, than it was about the design process. Working with an experienced mentor coach, Anne Sagendorph, CEO of Support System for Success, provided a grounding in coaching, and what a successful practice can look like.

With the introduction of Sufi-based healing work at the Jaffe Institute

(now the University of Spiritual Healing & Sufism), it all came together into the Heart of Business. My vision here at Heart of Business, whether you are self-employed, own your business, or bring an entrepreneurial heart to your job at work, is that your business become a profitable, sustainable, beacon of generosity in the fabric of your community.

 

As the founder of Heart of Business, and a successful business consultant and healer, I bring an active connection with the Divine to my work.

I have worked with thousands of entrepreneurs and small business owners in the areas of marketing, sales, business mission, and just plain taking care of yourself and your business.

I have run a magazine, worked as a paramedic, run a distribution business, been an activist, and worked in the non-profit arena. I have failed horribly in business, and succeeded beautifully, each in turn.

Trained at, and formerly faculty of, the University of Spirituality Heailng and Sufism in Organizational and Business Healing, I blend my skills as a Sufi healer and teacher with teaching heart-centered business practices.

My vision is for your heart to deepen into knowing its own truth, and from that knowingness your business becomes profitable and sustainable.

I live in Portland, Oregon with my wife Holly, our twin sons Sam and David, two cats Rafi and Kira, and as much rain as you care to soak up.

A house without a cat is not a home.

 

 

A house without a Cat is not a home

My cat Magic

Magic

My Cat magic: the story goes, one day I was working and a teenager brought in a tiny kitten. He said the mom was run over down the street, can you take this baby? After looking at him, of course I said YES. I left work to take the baby kitten to the vet, to get taken care of since his ears had mites. I also got him dipped for fleas. He ended up being the best cat I ever had. I still cry because he is no longer with me. Another blogger has their photo up and it looks exactly like my cat Magic. I came up with his name because he literally Popped out of No Where, and I took him home to be the Magic of my House. I love him still.

Happy Valentine’s Day Mega Monday Blog Hop (via Mirth and Motivation)

Happy 14th 2011

Happy 14th 2011

HAPPY FEBRUARY 14th EVERYONE! BE MY VALENTINE?

Oh, if it be to choose and call thee mine, love, thou art every day my Valentine! ~Thomas Hood

When love is not madness, it is not love. ~Pedro Calderon de la Barca

Many are the starrs I see, but in my eye no starr like thee. ~English saying used on poesy rings

Loving is not just looking at each other, it’s looking in the same direction. ~Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, Wind, Sand, and Stars, 1939

Gravitation is not responsible for people falling in love. ~Albert Einstein

I don’t understand why Cupid was chosen to represent Valentine’s Day. When I think about romance, the last thing on my mind is a short, chubby toddler coming at me with a weapon. ~Author Unknown

For you see, each day I love you more

Today more than yesterday and less than tomorrow.

~Rosemonde Gerard

Love is a symbol of eternity. It wipes out all sense of time, destroying all memory of a beginning and all fear of an end. ~Author Unknown

Love - a wildly misunderstood although highly desirable malfunction of the heart which weakens the brain, causes eyes to sparkle, cheeks to glow, blood pressure to rise and the lips to pucker. ~Author Unknown

I claim there ain’t

Another Saint

As great as Valentine.

~Ogden Nash

Trip over love, you can get up. Fall in love and you fall forever. ~Author Unknown

Anyone can catch your eye, but it takes someone special to catch your heart. ~Author Unknown

A hundred hearts would be too few

To carry all my love for you.

~Author Unknown

You have to walk carefully in the beginning of love; the running across fields into your lover’s arms can only come later when you’re sure they won’t laugh if you trip. ~Jonathan Carroll, “Outside the Dog Museum

We are all a little weird and life’s a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love. ~Author Unknown

Must, bid the Morn awake!

Sad Winter now declines,

Each bird doth choose a mate;

This day’s Saint Valentine‘s.

For that good bishop’s sake

Get up and let us see

What beauty it shall be

That Fortune us assigns.

~Michael Drayton

Love is a smoke made with the fume of sighs. ~William Shakespeare

kisses are a better fate

than wisdom.

~e.e. cummings

If love is blind, why is lingerie so popular? ~Author Unknown

Who, being loved, is poor? ~Oscar Wilde

In melody divine,

My heart it beats to rapturous love,

I long to call you mine.

~Author Unknown

“Practice makes the master. It’s not about learning; it’s about taking action and practicing your art. As an artist, if you practice love, and you keep practicing and practicing, the moment comes when everything you do is an expression of your love.” Don Miguel Ruiz When we think about Valentine’s Day, the idea of loved ones, chocolates, flowers and … Read More

Post #45 GIVING PRAISE VIDEO

This amazing tale of hope is the story of 5 year-old Elena Deserick. Diagnosed early

in life with cancer, she created a to-do list of all the things she wanted to do
with the time she had left.

She achieved a great goal by having one of her paintings displayed alongside one of
her favorite painters, Pablo Picasso. This is one of the most inspirational stories
you’ll ever see.

http://www.givingpraise.com/inspirational/5-year-old-cancer-victim/

One of my favorite inpirational stores
ever, this one brings tears to the eyes.

Have a blessed day!

David

It’s amazing how taking a few minutes at the start of each day to plan and set your thoughts in the right direction can help you get ahead and empower you to accomplish so much more.

But too often, people get so caught up in the activity of life that they tend to just “go with the flow” instead. Of course, I’m not saying we shouldn’t be flexible, but when it comes to your life, you should be the one setting the flow. Of course, unexpected things happen. Our days won’t always go according to plan, but if you’ll take time each day to set your heart and mind in the right direction, you’ll be equipped for whatever comes your way!

Today I encourage you, make plans to start your day right and set your thoughts in the right direction. Put God first place. Let Him guide you and order your steps. Even if it’s just five minutes a day, make spending time with Him a habit. Plan your day with Him because careful planning is the way to get ahead
