Improve your self confidence in 15 minutes

I used to be frighteningly under confident in social situations. And although people who know me now would never believe I used to doubt myself so much I literally had to learn confidence until it became a natural part of me. I can tell you relaxed optimistic confidence is just, well so much more fun.

Here I'll tell you about the things that made the most difference to my confidence levels...

Some people have naturally high levels of confidence but everybody can learn to be more confident

Firstly, it's important to get a clear idea of what self confidence really means, otherwise you won't know when you've got it! So, self confidence means:

1) Being calm. For every situation in life you need to run on the appropriate level of emotion. Too much emotional 'leakage' into a experience can spoil the experience. You make great strides towards confidence when you begin to relax in a greater range of situations.

2) Being cool. The second part of self confidence is about being able to relax with uncertainty. To be 'cool' in a situation really means relaxing with not knowing how things will pan out. If you truly tolerate uncertainty, you can do pretty much anything.

3) Not being too concerned with what others think of you. You know when you imagine what some place is going to be like before you go there but when you get there it is totally different to your imagination? That's how reliable your imagination is! Stop trusting your imagination so much. I've long since stopped bothering to imagine what others think of me because so often I've turned out to be wrong.

4) Being specific - where do you want confidence? 'Confidence' is meaningless until you tie it to something specific. You are already confident that you can read these words or can switch a light on and off. So you don't need more confidence everywhere. To get what you want in life you have to establish exactly what you do want. Where do you want confidence in your life? Think about the specific situations now and write them down. You beginning to steer your brain towards confidence.

5) Understanding that what you expect is what you get. Your brain is an organ that needs clear goals to work towards. When a task has been set in your brain it will do everything it can do to bring about the completion of that task. If you've tried to recall someone's name but can't, hours later you'll often find their name pops into your head.

The 'trying to recall' experience set the task or blueprint for your brain's future subconscious behaviour which eventually produced the name for you - when you weren't thinking about it consciously. You can use this natural mechanism to start feeling more confident. But, to ensure you set the right task for your subconscious mind, the next point is vital.

6) Don't task your mind with negatives. Instead of: 'I don't want to screw up' (which sets the task of 'screwing up' for your brain), set the blueprint for what you do want! Your brain doesn't work towards what to do by being told what not to do. And nature has given you a wonderful natural tool to set the right task blueprints with.

7) Use nature's goal-setter: Now you understand how vital it is to set the right task for you brain, you need to know how to do this reliably. Good hypnosis will strongly 'program' the right blueprint in your mind through the use of your imagination. If you powerfully imagine feeling confident and relaxed while in a relaxed hypnotic state it will be hard for your unconscious mind to do anything else. The blueprint for relaxation has been set firmly into your subconscious mind.

3 simple strategies to get you feeling confident quickly:

1) Think specifically of the time/place/situation you want to feel confident in. Remember 'confidence' doesn't mean anything until you attach it to something specific.

2) Focus on words in your mind right now that describe how you do want to be in that time and place. Maybe words such as 'calm', 'relaxed' or 'focused'. Remember your brain works on clear positive instructions.

3) Close your eyes for as long as you like and think about how those words feel. Then, imagine the situation itself and rehearse it in your mind feeling confident and relaxed. This way you set the right blueprint or 'task' for your unconscious mind.

You can repeat this often to make it more effective and use it with as many areas of your life as you need to. If you listen to a hypnotic cd or download that can make the benefits even more powerful (see my profile below). So if you feel like you'd be blessed with less confidence than some other people you can start redressing the balance by using your mind in the right way right now.

It took me years to learn how to be more confident - now you can do it in a fraction of the time. Good luck!

Not Just Brilliant - 10-Grand-A-Day Brilliant!

It's real! Yesterday, I thought it was big, but I didn't even know HOW big. Get yourself over here and see for yourself. What I saw, just 24 hours ago, was based on seeing a pre-launch, unfinished version of “Google's Dirty Little Secret.”

But just this morning... at 12:01 AM... I was lucky enough to get my hands on the final version.
I couldn't sleep. I stayed up all night, devouring the material. I learned stuff I never imagined.
I almost accidentally called what I learned, “tricks” but these aren't little gimmicks that will make you a few dimes for a little while. This is a brand new way to make money with AdSense.
After reading just half the book, all I can say is, “WOW!”

It's finally available, so you can read the secret page yourself here.

Let me tell you, this “Insider” is an interesting character. A dark and secret sort... but one with the kind of knowledge I've never seen before. And I guarantee you haven't either.
And you know how some guys out there write books that are supposed to reveal the secrets, but they keep the real secrets to themselves?

Not this guy... He's revealing so much, it's like he has a vendetta against someone at Google!
He shows step by step, exactly how he...

--Sucks $10,000 PER DAY out of Adsense.
--Plies his nasty practices while never being detected by the powers that be... or his competition!
--Follows a simple blueprint that can make him INSTANT money anytime he needs it.

And he shows you in simple language, exactly how you can do it too!
See for yourself.

If I were you, I'd go there right now, because depending on what time you're reading this, the floodgates may have already been opened.

And how would you feel if you missed out on what could be the single greatest money making opportunity you'll ever be offered?

You know, I just read back what I wrote above, and I think my theory of the “Insider” having a vendetta against Google, isn't right. It can't be. Because I'm pretty sure Google knows he's doing it. I'm convinced he's ripping off Adsense, and they're just sitting back and letting him steal THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS everyday!

Why?

Because his tactics make Google... HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS... maybe even MILLIONS daily.

Listen... I already know this package is probably going to be the single most important investment you make this year...
...and the thing about investments is, you have to strike while the iron is... cheap!

I spoke to Chris from DayJobKiller and even though “Google's Dirty Little Secret” has only been out less than an hour, he's already talking about raising the price.
So get in now, while the getting is good.

So stop checking your email already. Get over to this site and don't so much as blink your eyes before you make it to the bottom of that page.

I'm sitting here thinking of something else to say, when all that comes to me is something I said earlier... “Wow!”

To Your Success!

Launch Announcement

I have been quiet over the last 6 months. No, I have not given up, in the contrary. I have locked myself away for a while to recreate my business. And I have done it. It has always been very important to me that the things I do personally or professionally must fit into a greater picture. The bigger picture in life is self-realization.

You cannot do and have what you want unless you really understand who you are!

I have developed a website which addresses personal development, sprititual growth and business. And that is the natural flow of things: you learn on a personal and spiritual level and
reach a self-confidence and understanding - a must-have for business success.
(read the last sentence again, so you really understand it).

Now go and have a look at the site: www.triadlifebalance.com and let me know what you think.

Marketing with Postcards

12 Reasons to Market With Postcards
Copyright 2005 Bob Leduc

http://BobLeduc.com

If your marketing activity doesn't include postcards, you're
overlooking a highly effective and very low-cost sales tool.
Here are 12 of the many reasons postcards should be part of
your marketing program...

1. Postcards Work for Any Business

Postcards can produce all kinds of sales activity for all
types of businesses. For example, they can produce web site
traffic for online marketers, floor traffic for retail
stores, sales leads for direct marketers ...and just about
any other type of sales activity a business wants.

2. Designing Postcards is Simple and Uncomplicated

Designing an effective postcard is not complicated. It can
be as simple as printing your best small ad on a 4 x 6 card
and sending it to a list of potential prospects. Postcards
usually work best when the message is brief and the postcard
looks at first glance like a message from friend.

3. Printing Postcards is Easy and Inexpensive

You can print postcards with your own computer for about 1
or 2 cents each ...or have them printed professionally for
about 4 to 8 cents each.

4. There's a Special Low Postage Rate for Postcards

You can send any quantity of postcards by First Class Mail
in the US for only 23 cents each. The only requirement is
that your postcards must be at least 3 1/2 x 5 inches but no
larger than 4 1/4 x 6 inches.

5. Postcards Nearly Always Get Read

Because postcards are delivered "ready to read", almost
everybody will read it - even people who usually throw out
other types of direct mail without opening it.

6. Postcards Produce Fast Results

Because postcards are simple and easy to use - they produce
results fast. You can mail postcards within a few days of
deciding to use them ...and you'll start getting sales
activity 2 or 3 days later.

7. Postcards are effective for Generating Web site Traffic

One of the most effective postcard formats simply lists a
few benefits of a product or service on the card and tells
the reader to where they can get more information. This
makes them ideal for generating traffic to a web site.

8. Postcard Multiply Themselves

Postcards are like small billboards - and they are easy to
handle. They often get saved by recipients or passed on to
others ...providing additional exposure of your advertising
message.

9. Markets Can Be Precisely Targeted With Postcards

You can accurately target your best markets by sending
postcards only to mailing lists of prospects likely to be
interested in what you're offering ...and who also have a
history of acting on offers that interest them.

10. Postcard Marketing Results Are Easy To Measure

Postcards normally generate over 90 percent of their total
response within 7 to 10 days. This enables you to quickly
and accurately evaluate the results of a postcard campaign.

11. Postcards Put You in Control of Your Sales Activity

You can quickly boost (or reduce) your sales activity
anytime you want by simply regulating the number of
postcards you mail and how often you mail them.

12. Postcards Conceal Your Marketing from Competitors

Most advertising uses mass media where your competitors hear
or see what you are doing - and copy it. Postcard marketing
is personal. Only you and your prospects are aware of what
you are doing.

Postcards may be one of the best kept secrets of modern
marketing. They're highly effective, very low-cost, simple
to use ...and they work for any business. You're overlooking
a profitable marketing tool if don't use them.

new customers and increase sales. He just released a New
Edition of his manual, How To Build Your Small Business Fast
With Simple Postcards ...and launched *BizTips from Bob*, a
