All You Need Is Love..Love is all there is!

I have asked many people to define for me the word "hate" and what it feels like. I have yet to have anyone give me a definition. It seems that there is none, so I say that the emotion of hate is not real.

Now on the other hand if I ask the same question of "love", I get a myriad of answers. Love comes in many forms and I believe that it is the only true emotion. Poets, songwriters and philosphers have, for centuries, written volumes of definitions for love and how it feels.

Love is the great motivator. Money is another motivator in our society but when someone does something strictly for money, I believe that all they get back is money. When something is done from an intention of love the results are a million times more rewarding and lasting.

The very first form of love, and I believe the most important one, is the "love of self". It is only possible to love another to the degree that one loves one self. The expression of love is difficult for many people. How many times have you heard people say they feel unloved and lonely. They desperately want to find another person to share their life with, but love seems to keep eluding them.

By telling themselves that they cannot be whole until another completes them places them in a love-less state. If they loved themselves and realized that they are whole, wonderful and complete they would attract the love they so desperately desire. The universal "law of attraction" is never more prevalent than with love. Be love and you will attract love.

There are so many forms of love; The feeling that a parent has for a child, the love that is returned for the parent, the love between friends, the love for God, the love of a pet, the love of an activity and of course the big one.. the love between two people.

There are so many people looking for love, but what they really mean is they are looking for someone to love them. I believe that instead of looking for a partner to love them they would be more successful if they concentrated on looking for ways to "give love". For it is through the act of giving love that we can set up the energy to "be love", and therefore, to "receive love".

The phrase “unconditional love” is thrown around a lot. It sounds warm and fuzzy but is it practised? Most of our relationships are based on conditional love. Even our marriage vows are a stement of conditional love. Can you love someone who has been unfaithful? Been abusive to you or another loved one? Can you love yourself if you do those same things?

This is the true test on unconditional love. The knowing that whatever happens the love does not waver. I believe that this “kind” of love is true love is a love and one that will last. It’s easy for someone to say ”I love you unconditionally” but can you do it? If one experiences this kind of love than they have experienced “true love”.

Love.. unconditional love.. "Is.. All There Is"

Free Free Free... The Power of a Word

Stop! I can't take it anymore!

The word "free" used in the internet marketing business is something I have never, ever seen in my life before. I have been in a lots of different sales businesses before but IM is in a class of it's own.

I was looking to make some extra money and had lots of time on my hands as I am(was) semi-retired. Hmm Stay at home..play on the net..sounded good to me. I had no idea what I was in for.I have seen, in the 4 months I have been doing IM, more angles, slants, sales pitches and systems than I've seen in all my 35 years of business life. The word "FREE" is used like a piece of candy to a baby and I have trouble turning them down when what they are selling is "free". It is one powerful word.

Once you go for one thing free, look out there's 10 more coming up behind.When does it end! When does it rest!. Well I've figured out the answer is never. I have signed up for and downloaded so much free stuff that in a million years I'd never read or institute even a small portion of it. It makes my head spin just thinking about all the things I need to read and do. Hey! Wait! I am retired. This business just puts it's hooks in and reels you in, going deeper and deeper and making it a more than full time thing.You start the day with the intention of completeing a task and Bam! In comes an email about something free from someone, who in the past has given you good info, and off you go on a tangent in a million different directions and never do the job you wanted to when you started.

Stop! Please! Turn off the tap..my head is spinning...information overload! Well wait..I have control of the tap. "Shut it off Seth".I have read advice in several places to not jump into every new system that comes along..just start with one thing..get good at it then go on to the next. Sage advice,but they never said anything about stuff that was "FREE". I mean how wrong can you go with free! Too bad I haven't heeded it.

Right this minute I am going to do that. I am going to unsubscribe to everything and just sit back and take stock of where I'm at. Phew! That's better. Relax..Focus.Ok I'm better now. A new leaf..a focused direction..stay on task.. shut off all the distractions..Well better check my email. Hmm.. One from John Reese.. he's really good. I like his info... A recommended deal from John Reese..Well maybe one more thing. This one isn't "FREE".. It'll cost me a dollar... Yes that's better. At least I didn't fall for "FREE".

Creating Abundance..My Path To Profitmart

Abundance is not just how much money you have. If you believe you are abundant, you are, regardless of how much money you have. If you feel you lack something, you will, regardless of how much money you have. If your only intention in doing something is to make money, money is all that will come to you. Sure money is nice but isn't there more? How a person makes money and how it makes you feel doing it is equally important, isn't it?

I was looking for a business I could do at home to have the freedom to enjoy my life without having to chase through the traffic, wake up with an alarm , holiday when I felt like it and be able to do it from anywhere in the world. AH HA! Internet Marketing! That seemed to match my needs.

Well if you are like me and know nothing about it, searching google seems to be the place to start. Well what a shock. Pages and pages of systems, programs, advice, forums and so on and so on. The possiblities were and are endless...limitless! Affiliate marketing seemed to make sense to me as I didn't have a product to ship, no customer complaints to deal with and all I had to do was advertise for them and they would pay me money. Sounds easy enough. Then I found Clickbank and they made it really easy because all the product was right there in one place. They looked after the money all I had to do was check the mail and spend the money.

Wow! Life is great!! I started with Google and Yahoo, advertising my products on the pay-per-click program. Being totally "green" I just jumped in. I have done pretty well with it in the 3 months I've done it but these methods can eat your budget up pretty fast. I read and read all the information I could, bought some ebooks, bought some software and I've been lucky. I have only regretted a couple of ebook purchases which, after buying them, felt like money wasted. Of course Clickbank has a 60 day money back guarantee "no questions asked" policy as do most products on the net.

So, the next step, a website. Well there is tons of programs for that, all with lots of "hype" lots of "promises" but how to decide which one?? As I said at the beginning of this story, "how a person makes money" is to me, as important as how much money I make. I want to sleep at night. I want to deal with people who are straight-forward, open and honest. No b.s. No wild claims of "easy money". Tell me I have to work at it instead of it falling off trees and I'll believe you. This is where the ProfitMart team comes into the story.

I looked into several programs similar to ProfiMart and contacted the "so-called" owners of the programs. The replies were varied but were mostly "hype" and "promises". Rick and Ron Davies of ProfitMart on the other hand replied immediately, gave me straight-forward facts without the b.s. Offered me a program that,seemed to me, to be of true value, done ethically and professionally. A program that matched my beliefs and intent. I signed up for their newsletter first and got lots of free info from them without being constantly bugged to "join" or buy something. This showed me that these guys weren't just in it for the money.

At ProfitMart I got a free website with hosting included, tons of training for a newbie like me. Access to Amazon books for my customers, all the Clickbank products at the click of a mouse. Endless possiblites for products to promote and total control to add contenton as many pages as I want that will give my visitor something of value instead of just endless pages of ads.
Limitless opportunity for creating abundance without compromising my beliefs or integrity.

Some membership sites were as high as $800.00 a month and/or $1500.00 to start. ProfitMart is $19.97 a month with lots of opportunity to make that back, promoting the program to others by giving away free websites with your own domain name registered for life and receiving half of the new members fee in commission. Doesnt't take much promotion to have a $20.00 membership paid for every month from commisions! And Its every month as long as that person remains a member. Sounds pretty risk free. Especially for someone like me who is not willing to commit my life savings to internet marketing until I get a better understanding of it. Now that to me is "Value For The Money".
