Geekversity - Bring Out Your Inner Geek

WOW! What an AMAZING weekend! Guess why? :)

I have just got back from a fabulous, very informative and incredible inspiring and motivating event - Geekversity - Bring Out Your Inner Geek.

The event was held for two days in Sydney. It was all about Internet Marketing.

And let me tell you this: it was one of these experiences which create what I call WOW effect.

I feel like I can move the mountains now :)

I believe this is one of the best thing I've ever done in my life.

I went there to learn about the internet marketing, and this is the knowledge I took with me home tonight.

I will write about this a bit more tomorrow, but for now if you are really into this subject let me recommend you Year Of The Affiliate.

If you are serious about making money online - this is a must have!

Until tomorrow, happy... ehh, happy everything! :)

Growing good corn

There once was a farmer who grew award-winning corn. Each year he entered his corn in the state fair where it won a blue ribbon.

One year a newspaper reporter interviewed him and learned something interesting about how he grew it. The reporter discovered that the farmer shared his seed corn with his neighbours.

"How can you afford to share your best seed corn with your neighbours when they are entering corn in competition with yours each year?" the reporter asked.

"Why sir," said the farmer, "didn't you know? The wind picks up pollen from the ripening corn and swirls it from field to field. If my neighbours grow inferior corn, cross-pollination will steadily degrade the quality of my corn. If I am to grow good corn, I must help my neighbours grow good corn."

He is very much aware of the connectedness of life. His corn cannot improve unless his neighbour's corn also improves.

So it is with our lives. Those who choose to live in peace must help their neighbours to live in peace. Those who choose to live well must help others to live well, for the value of a life is measured by the lives it touches. And those who choose to be happy must help others to find happiness, for the welfare of each is bound up with the welfare of all.

The lesson for each of us is this: if we are to grow good corn, we must help our neighbours grow good corn.

Pennies from heaven

I found a penny today

just laying on the ground

But it’s not just a penny

this little coin I’ve found

“Found” pennies come from heaven

that’s what my Grandpa told me

He said angels toss them down

oh, how I loved that story

He said when an angel misses you

they toss a penny down

Sometimes just to cheer you up

make a smile out of your frown

So don’t pass by that penny

when you’re feeling blue

It may be a penny from heaven

that an angel tossed to you

I’ve found this poem on the net one day, and I must say I truly love it :)

What do you think about it?

Love, Wealth and Success

A woman came out of her house and saw 3 old men with long white beards sitting in her front yard. She did not recognize them.

She said “I don’t think I know you, but you must be hungry. Please come in and have something to eat.”

“Is the man of the house home?”, they asked. “No”, she said. “He’s out.”

“Then we cannot come in”, they replied.

In the evening when her husband came home, she told him what had happened.
“Go tell them I am home and invite them in!”

The woman went out and invited the men in.

“We do not go into a House together,” they replied.

“Why is that?” she wanted to know.

One of the old men explained: “His name is Wealth,” he said pointing to one of his friends, and said pointing to another one, “He is Success, and I am Love.”

Then he added, “Now go in and discuss with your husband which one of us you want in your home.”

The woman went in and told her husband what was said.

Her husband was overjoyed. “How nice!!”, he said. “Since that is the case, let us invite Wealth. Let him come and fill our home with wealth!”

His wife disagreed. “My dear, why don’t we invite Success?”

Their daughter-in-law was listening from the other corner of the house. She jumped in with her own suggestion: “Would it not be better to invite Love? Our home will then be filled with love!”

“Let us heed our daughter-in-law’s advice,” said the husband to his wife. “Go out and invite Love to be our guest.”

The woman went out and asked the 3 old men: “Which one of you is Love? Please come in and be our guest.” Love got up and started walking toward the house.

The other 2 also got up and followed him. Surprised, the lady asked Wealth and Success:

“I only invited Love, Why are you coming in?”

The old men replied together: “If you had invited Wealth or Success, the other two of us would’ve stayed out, but since you invited Love, wherever He goes, we go with him.

Wherever there is Love, there is also Wealth and Success.”

Knowing where to tap...

Once a giant ship engine failed. The ship's owners tried one expert after another, but none of them could figure out how to fix the engine. Then they brought in an old man who had been fixing ships since he was a youngster. He carried a large bag of tools with him, and when he arrived, he immediately went to work. He inspected the engine very carefully, top to bottom. Two of the ship's owners were there, watching this man, hoping he would know what to do. After looking things over, the old man reached into his bag and pulled out a small hammer. He gently tapped something. Instantly, the engine lurched into life. He carefully put his hammer away. The engine was fixed!

A week later, the owners received a bill from the old man for ten thousand dollars. "What?!" the owners exclaimed. "He hardly did anything!" So they wrote the old man a note saying, "Please send us an itemized bill". The man sent a bill that read:

Tapping with a hammer...................................$2

Knowing where to tap................................$9998

I am posting this story just to remind you and myself of the importance of knowledge :)

What would happen if...

What would happen if...
you took a few minutes each day to imagine the type of person you want to be?

What would happen if...
you thought about the most successful people you know and you said you would "mentally pretend" to be like them for a few minutes each day?

What would happen if...
you set just one important goal for yourself and you make sure you focused on it each day?

What would happen if...
you made a vow to imagine the new YOU for a minimum 90 days?

You would be amazed...
at what a profound difference there would be in your life!


I have got this text few years ago in a newsletter when I signed in at http://www.psycho-cybernetics.com/ . I really like it and I thought I will share it with you :)

I think it is worth giving a thought.

Run for Oscar - create your own movie!

"My life is like a movie in which I get to play myself and I get to experience it one frame at a time. It is a foregone conclusion that the film has a happy ending-it's in the script. I love this film, I love my part and, if I play my cards right, there's a good chance I'll get an Academy Award!"

We create our reality by our own. We write our lives. And we can also edit and rewrite what didn't work, bringing in a new supporting actors and casting ourselves in roles that are truly having us stretch to who we want to be.

Here is the opportunity for YOU to write, name, star, cast and co-produce a major motion picture.

You've got carte blanche from the studio... Whatever you need to spend, wherever you want to shoot, who ever you need to cast... It's all available to you!

This film is destined to be the biggest blockbuster of 2009! It is written in the stars that this movie takes home best screen play as well as best actor/actress awards! Here's your opportunity to shine!

Let's Get Started...

1st Decide on the Genre: Romantic Comedy, Love Story, Epic Adventure, Action Thriller, Fantasy, Classic...

Give Your Movie A Name: "A Beautiful Life" is most commonly used and one of the favourite all time titles... Feel free to borrow that or pick one of your own. There is no such thing as copy right infringement for this production :)

You're the Star: What is your character like? What's your background, where are you going? What type of style do you have? What is important to you in life? What experiences shaped your life? Who are your friends? What's your relationship with your family? What are your hobbies? Where do you live? You get the picture... Give this character as much detail as possible so you are completely clear how best to play this role!

Who will play opposite you in the lead: Do they have a name? Or do you just know the qualities you are looking for? Physical attributes, character strengths, vulnerabilities, emotional depth? Do they make you laugh, are they brilliant? Where in the world are they from... Do they speak with an accent? Remember you have total control!

Location: Where does this film take place? Is it set at a beautiful country ranch, an ocean front estate or an adventure that is shot all over the world?

Plot: What major milestones happen in this movie? What gets resolved? What gets Co-Created? How does a day in these characters' life look like, a month, a year, a decade? Looking back on their life what accomplishments did they achieve, what legacy will they leave? Bring in as much detail as possible... Don't forget to add in how the characters feel as well as what they experience throughout the film.

Soundtrack: Again YOU have complete control! What are the songs that get played throughout your movie?

Quiet on the Set: It's almost time to film... Now would be a good time to get quiet and spend some time in meditation as you visualize exactly how you want the scenes to play out!

Ready, Set, Action: Filming is fun and gets done with incredible ease, everyone plays their role brilliantly as a matter of fact there are talks of several awards! :)

The Press Tour: You share with the world a few highlights from the upcoming film. Come up with catchy headlines and splash them across your blogs and videos! People from all over the world are eager for the release of this never before seen, one of a kind, masterpiece!

Opening Night: Invite your friends, put on your best threads, take some pictures and get ready to start living the life of your dreams!

Now take some time to play the movie. Feel what it is like to move through scene by scene. Know that you have full control and can rewrite whenever necessary. In fact you are encouraged to come back and update the story. The studio backs you no matter what! It looks like you're up for some major awards! I'll see YOU on the Red Carpet! Shine On!

New day

"This is the beginning of a new day. You have been given this day to use as you will. You can waste it or use it for good. What you do today is important because you are exchanging a day of your life for it. When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever; in its place is something that you have left behind...let it be something good."
