Just another WordPress weblog

Thought this was an interesting post.

I think I’m doing a pretty good job of the networking aspect of the job, and it is interesting to see readership grow. Hopefully the things I’m writing about are somewhat interesting or entertaining.

Next, I really need to get off the basic WordPress.com host.. because they’re jacking me around with the lack of movement on the category issue, and I have almost no customizeability or option to add adsense ads. (Now that’s half a tongue-twister!)

NG

A $3000 pen?  Interesting anecdote about investing that Ramit would approve of.

6-months of Getting Rich Slowly…  JD is looking for input on his blog, read the comments, he’s developed quite a community in the past 6 months!  Kudos!

Holy charts batman!

Barriers

Read this and this.

Ww, barriers can rule and ruin your life.  Almost every time I talk to someone about their goals and dreams, they mention some sort of barrier in the way of achieving them. 

  • can’t take that course because I have no money.  Well, if you are sure the course would lead to a better way of life and a steady income….  you can’t afford not to take the course.  Get a LOAN! 
  • I can’t start a business because I have no money.  (see above)
  • I can’t invest in real estate because I don’t want to deal with tennants, and expenses, and taxes, and BLAH BLAH BLAH!
  • I don’t want to make more money because I’ll have to pay more taxes.  I say – You’re stupid!  You will still pocket more money!

I don’t recall where I learned this, Kyosaki I suppose.  One of his cardinal suggestions is to stop saying “I can’t” or “but” or “it won’t work” or “it’s impossible”.  Once you put up a barrier like this, your brain immediately stops thinking.  It gives up.  You rott away in a boring job, never take a risk, and you will regret it.   If you instead say:  “This looks difficult, I wonder how I can make this work” or “maybe”, you are on your way to solving the problem instead of just complaining about the potential problems.

So.  STOP SAYING I CAN’T and start doing something!
