Hi Friends,

It’s probably the most asked question on the internet – “How long does it take to create a successful internet business?”

I get asked this quite often, and, I’ll be honest with you, – it’s impossible to answer.

It depends on your focus, your commitment, and your targeted marketplace.

It depends on how often you work on your business, and how focussed you are when you are working.

Many people say they are working, but what they really mean is that they are checking emails, browsing websites, spending time in forums, etc

Now, don’t get me wrong – all these things need doing, but you have to have a degree of balance in the amount of time you allocate to them.

If you only have 3 hours per day to work on your online business, and you spend 2 hours browsing forums and websites, and 30 minutes on emails, then you only have 30 minutes left to do productive work that will move your business forward.

CELEBRATE LIFE NOW: How to Enjoy Life to the Fullest

By Darcy Keith

As I’m typing my thoughts, I am watching my daughter play outside games with her neighborhood friends. First, they played a made-up game of throwing a ball though hula-hoops. Next, it was bouncing a ball in the middle of the hula-hoop, which had a number point value scribbled with pink sidewalk chalk in the center. How fun it is to watch the girls, aged five to eleven, improvise with the items they have, which were six hula-hoops and five balls of various sizes. I’m amazed at how quickly the girls can switch from game to game, making new rules, and having fun.

Watching their excitement, giggles, and negotiation skills reminds me of some of the aspects of life that we sometimes don’t. We don’t celebrate life. Each day, we should celebrate life. No, I’m not talking about living irresponsibly, but enjoy every day given to us. For the past week, my daughter asks me what special thing we are going to do that day. Sometimes, she just wants to go outside and play catch or take a family bike ride to the park. Other times, it’s just sitting down to watch a movie with hot, buttered popcorn, and a glass of soda.

My husband and I try our best to enjoy every day with her by celebrating life and the time we have together. I remember when our daughter was born. Family and friends visited us to celebrate her birth and see our new family addition. Because in the first year of life she changed physically so much, we celebrated each stage by having her picture taken every month. Videos and pictures were taken at holidays, special events, family gatherings, and various times to capture her innocent, curious, happy personality.

I must admit, however, that sometimes I wish life away. One of the bedtime rituals that I do every night when I put my daughter to bed is that we pray together, I sing a bedtime lullaby that I have sung every night since she was born, we tell each other “I love you”, and I start playing her favorite CD as she drifts off to sleep. There are several times that I would have liked to just kiss her goodnight after we prayed and go back to whatever I was doing.

So you want to know more about the Law of Attraction or you might be thinking that it’s some New Age, out there mumbo jumbo right? I’d like to say that this is not a sermon and you can think of whatever is right based on your belief system when I mention God. This is from my perception as a born again believer… not a religious nut case.

This article is directed more for Christian’s who listen to what others say and don’t do their own research from a biblical perspective or even from a secular one. I believe you’re missing out on some very practical principles that even the darkest of hearts can utilize to gain massive health, wealth and happiness in this life. Where they end up after this life is not my place to judge so listen closely.

We’ve all experienced in our lives whether Christian or not and that is, like attracts like.

We know this and we know that even if we’re Spirit filled, tongue talkin’ believers, we can still attract negative and positive circumstances and people in to our lives. It’s a universal law… get used to it. It’s one of twelve Universal laws that must not be brushed off but understood.

A clear example of the Law of Attraction can be seen in Job 3:25 when Job said, “Because a dreadful thing I have dreaded, it has come upon me. And what I have been scared of comes to me.”
