“What Works For Me... May Not Work For You”
Running a company that sells quite a few 'information products' i.e. books, reports, courses, etc that aim to teach or provide advice, I'm an ardent believer in the value of such products.
At the same time, I think anyone who buys 'advice' from anyone else - whether it's in the form of products or services - should keep one, imporant thing in mind about that advice:
"What works for them... may not work for me"
'Advice' ranges from the more objective e.g. a doctor telling her patient that he has a fever... to the more subjective e.g a sales trainer telling people that the best way to sell someone is to wear a navy, blue suit.
When it comes to more subjective advice i.e. advice that's based on what someone has seen or done rather than something that is obvious or based on statistically valid data, I suggest you take it with that proviso in mind.
After all, when you consider how people from all kinds of backgrounds and with different skills, talents, etc, can all become successful in various fields, it's pretty clear that no single size fits all.
And yes, that's my subjective advice!

“How To Start Your Own Online Business
(With Almost NO Expense)”
If you could start your own online business, in just a week or two, with almost no expense to get started...
Would you do it?
If you said yes, I've got some good news for you...
Yes, you really can get your own Internet business started in just a few weeks. It's a lot simpler than you might think.
But I'm not talking about shady 'get rich quick' schemes or questionable biz-opps or low-paying 'work at home' plans.
And I'm not talking about selling other people's products through drop-shipping or affiliate programs.

“Why You Might Want To Take Notes...”
Want to remember or really understand something? Take notes!
Taking notes is not just beneficial in terms of providing a record you can refer to later... the actual process of writing them helps etch the information into your mind.
This is because you call more of your brain into play when you attempt to translate the information you've heard or seen into written form.
The process of translating the information into notes, in turn, deepends your memory and understanding of that information in your mind.

“How Insiders Get The Jobs They Want...
...And You Can Too!”
Studies show that 50% of all new jobs go to "Insiders"...
Not just existing employees, but people who BECOME insiders by taking a somewhat different - yet much more effective - approach to getting the job they want.
Despite this, most books, career counselors and recruiters keep telling us to apply for a job using the conventional, "Outsider" approach!
Fine... if you want to join the long queue of people waiting to get in the "front door."
But if you want to slip in the "side door"... and not settle for any old job... but land the job you REALLY want, here's how:

“Where's The Best Climate?”
Even though we're into the second month of autumn here in Melbourne, the warm, balmy weather is lingering... which makes it all the harder for me to accept that winter is on the way!
Yep, I'm a warm weather gal. And yet, when I compare Melbourne's winters to those in various other places - particularly places in Europe and Northern America – Melbourne's average winter temperatures – in the range of 6 to 15 degrees celsius (43 to 59 degrees fahrenheit) according to Wikipedia - is downright tropical!
Which led me to do some fun research into which places on the planet have best climate.
Oh, and while I promise not to say this too often, a preference for a certain kind of climate is another of those subjective things.
Anyway an article in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette says that, when it comes to warm, stable weather year-round, the top 5 places are:
1. Atlixco, Mexico
2. The Canary Islands
3. Costa Rica
4. Faulconbridge, Australia
5. Redwood City, California
