Michael Jackson - Reflection about His Death

Nobody in LA is talking about anything else but Death of Michael Jackson. To be honest I didn't really liked him, I had a lot of fun watching great parody of him in Eminem's clips. Now I got a deep reflection about Michael Jackson. Of course he had a lot of moneys, happy life, his own "play grounds" in major worlds capitols, where people who never wanted to grew up could come and have fun, by the way he even made a few scandals, but let's be honest in front of ourself - now it's all gone.
Now, after investigation and all this median sensation, his all wealth will be spreaded between lawyers, tax office and family. I'm wondering how many people now will declare true friendship with Michael, without asking: "Did Michael mentioned anything about me in the testament?"
For some of you my dear readers, what I just said might be offensive but isn't this funny anyway? You can change your skin color, be a famous celebrity, make millions, sell millions, be loved by millions and die like a freaked out wired-o in the age of 50. I'm wondering what 2pac would say and what would Jesus do ;]

5 Important Steps To Help You Achieve The Success & Wealth You Want

A lot of people dream of having wealth and success, yet it is only a few who can take this 'dream' further and actually work towards achieving the success and wealth they desire in their lives.

For you to be wealthy, you need to be ready, willing and able to work hard for it.
So what are the 5 steps to follow in order to get what you want?

1. You must know exactly what you want.
How can you achieve something if you do not know exactly what it is you want to achieve? It is important for you to know precisely the level of success and wealth you want. Your goals must also be 'smart' goals (specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and timed). Wanting to achieve some level of success and wealth is a natural human being's instinct - but you will need to specify the goals and targets you want to achieve. Write down your goals and priorities; and specify all the actions that you will need to take in order to achieve these goals.

2. You must want it badly enough.
If you really want something, you will get it. If you fail to get it, then you do not want it badly enough. If you really want to achieve some level of success and wealth in your life, then nothing can stop you from achieving that. You must have strong desire and commitment to work towards achieving that which you want; and any setbacks and challenges you will face will not hinder you from ultimately getting what you want.
You will need to be very optimistic, focus on 'potential' and not 'problems'. Try to visualize the best possible outcome and benefits of what you want to achieve; and let this keep you motivated and energized while you work towards your success and wealth goals.

3. You must believe that you are going to get it.
Your mind and attitude are your greatest assets which can help you achieve the success and wealth you desire. Your thoughts influence what you can achieve in your life, so you must have positive thoughts and attitude. It is very important that you make the future happen in your thoughts; and this will guide you towards the success and wealth you want. It is equally important that you stop any counterproductive habits that interfere with your efforts.

4. You must be persistent and focused
Persistence is one of the very important traits that you will need to achieve your goals of being wealthy and successful. A lot of people give up their success and wealth dreams simply because they are not persistent. When you face any hurdles, find solutions for them. If you experience a setback, get yourself up and keep on working towards your goal. By diligently working towards your goals everyday, you will get the level of success and wealth you want.

5. You must be dedicated to work hard
Success and wealth can be easily achieved by those who are prepared to invest the necessary dedication and effort. Without your dedicated effort, then you will not achieve your goals.

After you have decided on the goals you want to achieve, you need to follow through with some action. Implement the plan which will help you achieve your success and wealth goals, review your progress, overcome any obstacles that come in your way, and be committed to working hard. Celebrate every victory you achieve, enjoy your achievements and continue to work towards the success and wealth you want.

If you want success and wealth in your life, set your goals, work hard towards achieving the goals, be persistent and most importantly, believe that you will get it!

Self Improvement Tips for Wealth Creation? Getting Rich Starts from Within

Few people realize that getting rich does not just happen by using mathematical and business skills. There is definitely more to that in creating wealth. If you want to get rich, you have to make changes. And the first changes you need to make will be those that focus on self-improvement.

Contentment sometimes represents the easy way out
Sometimes people deliberately deceive themselves by feigning contentment in order to avoid working harder and taking more risks to go for what they really want. Dont try to fake being contented when youre not. If you want to dream, dream big. If you need to create goals for yourself, make them big enough to incorporate what you want in life. It is okay to start with small steps, but plan goals out far enough to incorporate really big dreams, too, if they are what you want.

1.) Time is Gold
Many people have been taught this adage from day one, but a lot of people are unfortunately not able to appreciate it. Time is precious, and the truly wealthy dont waste this precious commodity. Instead, they do their utmost to make the most out of their time. If you want to join them at the top, you need to adopt the same attitude.

2.) Get Your Priorities Straight
Decide what you think is most important; do you spend a day at the spa or attend Mandarin Chinese lessons? Create priorities that will help you create wealth. Be honest with yourself and decide which tasks are important and which ones are not. Then prioritize them so that you take care of the important ones first and which can wait if need be.

3.) Start Planning Ahead
Having clear-cut goals and priorities in life is necessary to help you create wealth, but these alone will not do the job. They will only help you if you go on to figure out the next step: As exactly how will you create wealth?

4.) The Only Failure in Life is Failing to Try
Life is complicated, as everyone knows, but dont let that stop you from getting what you want, which in this case is to create wealth. Of course, you will likely encounter obstacles that may stop you from reaching your goal temporarily, but the only time you will truly fail is when you dont try at all. You also have to make sure that you try hard enough and that you keep trying even in the face of failure as long as it is feasible.

5.) Give and Take
Be prepared to both ask for favors and give something in return. If you are used to being self-reliant, that is great. But if you are determined to create a business, you need to understand that you will need to work in cooperation with others at least some of the time.

6.) Do not be Too Proud or Stubborn to Take Advice.
If the suggestions and advice offered by others have merit, then go ahead and give the advice a try. Never presume that you know everything or that you cant learn from someone else. There will always be something new to learn. This lesson can not only help you get rich, but it can help you stay rich and become richer as well.

It is important that you strive to improve how you think, speak, feel, and act, first and foremost. Once these changes have been implemented and have become habit, then concentrate on attaining external goals to reach your main objective of getting rich, and getting rich now!

Work Hard For Your Wealth!

When I just started work after graduation, I have earned income to spend on the things I desired. But if I came across something that is too expensive, I would tell myself to forget it. It is outside of my budget. That is the way I was brought up. Spend within my means and forget about things that I cannot afford. These things are meant for the rich people only.

After reading a few books and attending a few seminars on wealth creation, I have realized my mistake of laziness. Instead of thinking very hard on how to earn money to buy those expensive things, I have chosen the easy way out by giving myself the excuse that I cannot afford it.

In fact, my laziness to think hard to make money is inherent in a lot of ways in my life.

Firstly, when someone tried to show me a way that I could earn money, I would turn him because I was too busy with my current employment. I felt that there is no need for me to further stretch myself to earn extra money since I was already receiving a reasonable steady income. I should relax and enjoy myself during my leisure time.

Actually, that was an excuse. The real reason was that I was not prepared to think and work hard to become rich. What I really wanted was instant wealth! I simply wanted to become rich without the need to go through the process of failures and setbacks.

But this is not possible based on my knowledge gained from reading and observations. Failures and setbacks are essential for everyone to learn from their mistakes so that they can improve and achieve success.

Secondly, if there was a proven system available for me to achieve wealth, I was still not prepared to do it. My excuse for laziness would be that I did not have a coach to guide me. I would face difficulties in learning to use the proven system. I would need someone to handheld me all the way. I could not do it by myself.

Thirdly, if there was a mentor to coach me to achieve wealth, the first question that came to my mind was does this really work? What if there is no result after putting in all my efforts? Why don't I just wait and see. Let observe someone who was doing it and see what would be his outcome. If he were successful, then I would follow him. Wait and see attitude is just another excuse for laziness.

As you can see, I could come out with all sorts of excuses for doing anything even if there were perfect conditions available. All these excuses voice down to one and only one thing, I was not ready to pay the price to become rich. I was ready to work hard for an employer but I was not ready to work hard for myself.

How did I finally realize my mistake? Well, it was due my exploration to gain instant wealth.

When someone told me that I could be rich by doing option trading, I quickly signed up for the course and hope to gain instant wealth. After studying and learning for a while, I realized that a lot of time and effort is required to truly master the necessary skills.

When someone told me that I could be wealthy by investing in real estate, I was distracted and gave up on the previous course that I was learning. I would then signed up for the new course and hope to gain instant wealth.

I had tried a lot of things but only to give up when I found that I needed to put in a lot of hard work to master the skills. I was looking for a way to gain instant wealth. In the end, I was forced to face the reality that there is no quick way but hard work.

Hard work is required mentally, emotionally and physically. If I want to become right, I need to think of ways and means to learn and accumulate wealth. This is mental hard work. Each time I face a failure or setback, I need to deal my emotions so that I do not give up. This is emotional hard work. I need to spend time and effort to carry out the actual actions to learn and accumulate wealth. This is physical hard work.

Without hard work, there will be no failures and setbacks. Without failures and setbacks, I will not be able to learn from my mistakes so that I can achieve success one day. With this new understanding, I am no longer afraid to work hard for myself.

Trading The Emini? Here's How To Shortcut The 3 Year Learning Curve

Understanding technical analysis and candlestick chart patterns on the Emini can give us very reliable signals for trade entries and exits, and take a lot of the guess work out of trading the Emini futures market. It is very hard to argue which way the trend is heading if the index is making a series of higher tops and bottoms on our chart and the candles are all green. Buying the index in these circumstances is like getting carried up an escalator...it's an easy trade when you go with the flow.

Unfortunately, many people fight the trend and sell (or worse, go short) at every small down tick, thinking they have picked the top, only to see the Emini rise further immediately. By the time the buyers are finished, these traders have spent their monetary and psychological capital in a futile attempt to pick the top of the market.

Becoming proficient at technical analysis and determining the trend of the market can give us the inside running as traders, but it can take years of study and trial and error to become good enough at it to become successful. Does TA work all the time? Of course not, nothing does. Losses on some trades are inevitable, as we cannot know for sure what the market will do. All our analysis can do is alert us to probabilities - there are no certainties in financial markets.

This is the hardest thing for most traders to accept. We all hate to be wrong, but that is the nature of the business. All we can do is take every trade our system gives us and see what happens. The better our analysis and our system, the more likely our trades will produce profits. And in addition to TA skills, you need patience, discipline and emotional control to become a successful Emini trader.

Typically, as traders we must find or develop and perfect a trading system or set of analysis tools that we are comfortable with, based on what we learn from other traders, learning from our (often expensive) mistakes, taking courses and other forms of study.

But what if you could short-cut the learning curve and become a profitable Emini trader as soon as today? What if you could 'borrow' a successful trader's system and immediately implement it for yourself? Instead of spending your time learning to trade, you could actually be trading profitably almost immediately.

The solution is to find an advisory or trading alert service that tells you when to buy, where to put your stop loss order, and when to sell. Now the signals the service gives you have to be reliable of course, but when you find one that helps you to make consistent profits trading the Emini, all you have to do is stick with it and you have saved yourself countless hours of study and analysis (and probably years of painful, expensive trial and error). This is time you can better spend enjoying the lifestyle that becoming a profitable trader gives you.

Let's face it; most of us don't trade the market just because we enjoy the rush. We want the money, the lifestyle and the time freedom it gives us. Working from home (or anywhere else for that matter) for a few hours a day, taking days off when we want to, no boss to answer to.

Trading the Emini market for a living is the ultimate lifestyle business. Well as long as you are making money it is... If you're not, it's a nightmare. You can see the potential, but the learning curve and time it sucks up can take a huge chunk of your life.

For my money, it makes sense to let somebody else spend the hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars required to learn to trade profitably, and then hitch a ride on their coat tails. All I have to do is invest a small percentage of my ongoing profits to access the service, and I get to keep ALL the rest. This is something you should consider testing if you are not making the kind of returns you know are possible trading the Emini S&P, the Emini Dow, the Emini Russell or Emini Nasdaq markets.

Joining a profitable Emini trading advisory service, one that gives you reliable technical analysis entry and exit signals, will save you countless hours of study (and many sleepless nights) as you grapple with learning to trade profitably yourself. Something to think about?

How To Shortcut The Emini Trading Learning Curve By Three Years Or More

I'm an observer. I watch Emini traders come and go, I watch them start their trading careers with great enthusiasm, spend a fortune on learning this business, and a lot of the time, watch them blow up and give the game away frustrated without ever knowing why.

Hot topics, Emini trading systems and trends come along regularly. There's always a new 'in' thing making an appearance on the trader's radar screen. And whenever there's a new rage, there will be traders who jump on the bandwagon.

But the fact is that many of these trading system 'revelations' are nothing more than over-hyped garbage designed to separate gullible traders from their cash. Systems that sound great in theory, but don't work in the real world. What happens when this new system doesn't work as advertised? People begin to lose interest and look for the next big thing. And so the cycle continues.

Marketers selling their Emini trading systems continue to roll out their latest and greatest 'must have' tools and methods for beating the market, and all the poor souls who are looking for something to help them improve their trading results, pile on board hoping that finally 'this is the one'.

Normally it's not 'the one' at all, so the promoters give a few refunds to those who actually tried to use it and failed, and everyone else just puts the whole sad episode down to experience. There is a never-ending stream of trading products and courses to buy. The bottomline is that you might never stop spending money on useless training if you try to learn to trade the Emini yourself.

But - What if could shortcut this expensive, difficult to master, extremely time consuming 'learning to trade' experience altogether and start trading the Emini market profitably right now, as soon as tomorrow?
Well you can, and it's a very simple thing to do. By subscribing to a Trading Alert Service that gives you high probability buy and sell signals, you completely remove the need to spend a fortune on trial and error and untold years of your valuable time on learning to trade.

You simply borrow the proven system of somebody who's worked out how to trade the Emini market profitably, and follow the signals you are given. Of course, there are good Alert Services and there are bad ones, so what should you look for when making a decision on which one to register for?

1. Look for a service run by trader who has been in the market for a long period of time who still actually trades the Emini market. You wouldn't believe the number of people selling trading services who have been so beat up by the market that they haven't traded in years. If the guy who runs the service is actually making the calls live in the market for you, that's even better.

2. Make sure you can access a free trial of the service so you can 'road test' the alerts and the atmosphere of the Trading Room before you commit to it. If they won't give you a trial, run, don't walk, away with your credit card safely in your wallet.

3. Spend your time during your free trial period testing the validity of the trading calls and make sure they are profitable before you commit to becoming a member of the system. If you don't find that the system produces a profit for you (whether you paper traded the alerts during your trial or traded them for real), it's unlikely that it will afterwards either. Beware the "Oh, this was just a bad week" story some people will spin you.

By finding a Trading Alert Service that produces consistently profitable trades, you will save your most valuable resource - your time, and likely thousands of dollars in losses as you try to work it all out for yourself.
