Health Soap Box

I have spent the day in a problem solving training class.  You may ask what does this have to do with a "health soap box", but as I learned today, it doesn't matter how off topic a subject is, if somebody presenting wants to talk about something, there isn't much you will do to stop it.

I normally don't have a problem with people talking about health and wanting to be healthier.  The problem today was the person was so analytical that they competely missed the point.  I know you have to burn more calories than you eat, but there are so many more aspects to health that it can be dangerous to focus on just the numbers.  In fact, one of his examples proved to me that he was off base.  He told us about a professor who ate nothing but Twinkies for a couple months and lost 27 pounds.  To him it was proof that it didn't matter what you ate, it mattered how much.  To me, that says man you can lose weight and still be rediculously unhealthy.

Oh well.  The one thing it did do was give me time to think about a video I wanted to record.  So here is a link to the video.  Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE   Don't worry, it has absolutely nothing to do with health . . . lol

Review of Software System and a Bonus

You may not have heard of him, but Trey Smith is one of the leading information product internet marketers in the world. He has literally made millions of dollars selling information based products. He is referred to as “Cuzin Trey” by internet marketing legend and founder of the original StomperNet, Andy Jenkins. He literally is the cousin of Frank Kern who is considered as one of the best marketing professionals in the world.

The weird thing about Trey is the fact that he doesn’t actually create anything. When he sells an information product, he pays somebody else to create it for him. He is launching a training program called The Software System which will show you how he comes up with software application ideas, finds affordable programmers to create the applications for him, and how he sells these products to make money around the clock.

As with most internet marketing launches, there will be many opportunities to get a Software System Bonus when you purchase. A lot of people will give you some extra software or an extra training program when you purchase through their link. While this is helpful, it isn’t usually the best because it just takes your focus away from the program you should be learning and using. I have found a better Software System Bonus option – a physical product. The folks at MoneyTreeMarketing.com are offering anybody who buys through their link a great physical bonus like a 3G iPad. If you have an iPad or just want something different, just let them know and they will give you whatever you want of similar value.

I recommend you check out Trey’s new program by heading over to MoneyTreeMarketing.com then take advantage of the Software System Bonus they are offering.

Wii Fit Exercise

We got a wii fit for Christmas this year and it has become one of the most used pieces of exercise equipment we have ever owned.  I think it has to do with the gaming nature of it

If you have a wii and would like to find a fun way to compete against your friends and family andburn somecalories whiile you do it, you should invest in the balance board and game.  I will cost you far less than a gym membership or Bowflex and you may even use it.

Now go out and get healthy.

The launch of the Magic Bullet System 2.0 from Amish Shah and Jay Styles is just around the corner.  On January 18, they will be opening up their legendary coaching program and software system to the public again.  When they opened the program in early 2010, over a thousand people jumped at the chance to learn how to make money using CPA offers and economical paid traffic.  This time around, even more people are likely to sign up.

To show people more about the program, they have created a series of free training videos.  The first one showed how a simple offer that only pays a dollar or two can easily turn into a $14,000 per year profit.  The second video revealed all the traffic sources that Digispace used to become a Fortune 500 Company.  The third video focuses on some case studies to show exactly how everything works.

When you are ready to sign up, you have the opportunity to take advantage of some great Magic Bullet System 2.0 bonus offers.  You can choose to get a bunch of extra training, but I don’t recommend it because it will only distract you from what you are trying to learn.  The best bet is to take advantage of one of the physical Magic Bullet Bonus offers.  One of the best offers is for a 64 GB 3G enabled iPad.  You can get this offer from sites like moneytreemarketing.com when you purchase through their affiliate link.

Merry Christmas and Have a Profitable New Year

As I sit here writing a Holiday post, I have to think back on the year and be thankful for everything I have been blessed with. My family is awesome. My health is pretty good all things considered. I have a wonderful house to live in and a view of the Sierra Nevada mountains that is breath-taking. Financially things are good – the bills are paid and we have a great Christmas planned.

Looking ahead to 2011, there are some definite focus items. I have recently started promoting internet marketing products and have had pretty good success with the first 2 products I promoted. I plan for this to be a focus for our business in 2011 and have already picked out a product called the Magic Bullet System to promote in early 2011.

Since I talked about the “typical” financial New Year’s resolution, I should probably cover the physical one as well. I am going to start the year with an intense focus on health to include both exercise and diet. I hope to be able to create some momentum and really have a healthy and successful 2011.

It’s time to start enjoying the season. Merry Christmas to All!

Social Media Marketing Machines

Social media is one of the fastest, possibly the fastest, type of content on the internet.  Social media is commonly referred to as Web 2.0 and consists of content created by average people instead of serious webmasters and companies.  Sites like Facebook, Twitter, and a host of other sites that display user generated content have made it easy for anybody to share their views with the world.

Social Media Marketing Machines is a training program created by Traffic Geyser founder Mike Koenigs.  The program will teach people how to make money on the internet using the power of social media.  There will be training on sites like Twitter and Facebook plus help on how to create content for the next generation of mobile media.  Blog sites and how to use them effectively will be another topic of the training that students will master.  In addition to that, there will be training on how to use webinars, teleseminars, and webcasts.

The training will be delivered through a series of weekly training videos that cover the concepts to be taught for the week.  The topics being taught will be reinforced through weekly assignments.  The last part of the training will be weekly training calls that will give students direct access to Mike Koenigs and other key members of his staff.

As part of the Social Media Marketing Machines program, students will have access to Traffic Gyeser for the automatic submission of their social media content.  This is the same system that has been helping people take advantage of social media sites for almost 5 years and will continue to be very helpful to students.

Social media will continue to be a growing segment of the internet and will only get bigger.  Those that take advantage of this trend will be able to cash in like there's no tomorrow.  With Social Media Marketing Machines, you can start making money too.

Danger Lurks in the California Mountains

I have lived in California for just over 6 months now.  I have lived at the 4 corners of the US now from the Canadian Border to the Gulf Cost and the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean.  California has shown itself to be very diverse and have elements of area I have previously lived.  The one unique thing is the diversity of potentiall deadly animals.

The latest in the line if deadly animals to visit our house is a rattlesnake.  There was one in my garage Friday.  I guess it moved into the garage for a little warmth.  Fortunately, I didn't get bit.  We have also had tarantulas, black widows, and scorpions in the house or in the driveway.  My personal favorate was the bobcat that sat just outside the screen door watching my wife and kids do school work on the couch.

There are also bears, coyotes, and mountain lions close by, but so far none of them have visited our house.  Gotta love the variety of dangerous animals.  Just have to keep small children inside the house . . . lol

Mike Koenigs and Traffic Geyser are my Heroes

Social media is the way of the future on the internet.  In fact, it is pretty much the way of the present already.  With virtually unlimited places for people to interact with each other, many people are now relying on bloggers and Facebook friends for critical information instead of traditional information sources.  If you are in the business of internet marketing, this can be a good thing.

Traffic Geyser is a tool developed by Mike Koenigs and has been helping people dominate social media sites for almost 5 years.  The tools and training offered in Traffic Geyser make it easy for anybody to create videos, podcasts, and articles that can be blasted all over the web.  There are currently almost 100 different video, podcast, article, and blog sites that you can submit content to automatically.

There have been several training programs based on the Traffic Geyser platform including Main Street Marketing Machines.  In these training classes, Mike and his staff teach students how to create complete internet marketing campaigns.   Each class has had a slightly different focus.  For example, Main Street Marketing Machines was created to teach people how to use the power of social media to build a long term business helping "main street" businesses with internet marketing.

The next generation of training offered by Mike Koenigs is called Social Media Marketing Machines and promises to use the same great technology and techniques that have already helped thousands of people drive traffic to their websites and generate significant income.  If you want to learn more about Traffic Geyser or Social Media Marketing Machines, visit MoneyTreeMarketing.com.  You will find informational write-ups on many different training classes offered by some of the biggest names in internet marketing like Mike Koenigs.

California Winter Wonderland

Thanksgiving is in a couple weeks and I am thouroughly enjoying this time of year.  I love the fall.  The nice cold evenings.  The chill in the morning when you go outside.  I have so many sweatshirts and it is so good to be able to wear them.

When you exercise in the cold, it is important you dress warmly.  I like to wear plenty of warm clothes to make sure I sweat even if it is freezing outside.  This helps get rid of the toxins in my body.  The other thing I like to do is keep my mouth covered so I don't breath in too much cold air and start coughing.

This winter, make sure you stay warm while exercising and make sure to burn off some of those calories you will be eating ath Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years.

Merry Christmas!

Link Liberation 2.0 Training Course

I have learned a lot from many different people, but there are two people who have taught me more than most.  They are Leslie Rohde and Dan Thies.  I first heard of these guys (and started learning from them) when they were faculty members at the original internet marketing training consortium, StomperNet.  I later learned from them as a member of their training organization, SEO Brain Trust.  One of the elements of SEO Brain Trust was the first iteration of a link building program called Link Liberation.  The original Link Liberation course was very successful and it is being offered again with the latest link building information as well as a cool software system that helps you get the most out of the training.

The latest program, being called Link Liberation 2.0, is sure to be an instant best seller when it launches on November 9, 2010 and will be delivered via videos and coaching cals over a 12 week period.  If you want to improve your rankings by learning from these guys, you can get an even better deal by taking advantage of the many Link Liberation Bonus offers out there. Basically what happens is that you get a bonus for buying the program through a specific link.  One of the best Link Liberation Bonus offers I have seen can be found at MoneyTreeMarketing.com.

Having taken classes from Leslie and Dan before, I know what they offer and am excited about this class.  I highly recommend them to anybody who wants to learn more about how to do internet marketing the right way.  The great thing is that you can start learning from these guys right away. There are multiple free training videos as well as a well prepared written report answering many tough questions about internet marketing.

Today I want to write about something that is very important to me. I have a lot of varied interests and one of them is internet marketing and website promotion. A large part of internet marketing is getting better rankings in the search engines and getting more traffic to my websites.

I have learned a lot from many different people, but there are two people who have taught me more than most. They are Leslie Rohde and Dan Thies. I started learning from them when they were with StomperNet, the original internet marketing training organization. I later learned from them as a member of their training organization, SEO Brain Trust. As part of the Brain Trust, I took their original link building course, Link Liberation. Now they have decided to offer this training course again and this time add some software and enhance some of their methods to incorporate what is working today in the world of internet marketing.

The Link Liberation 2.0 class is a 12 week program that consists of video delivered lessons and weekly coaching calls. This class is going to launch on November 9, 2010 and is sure to be a fast seller. One of the things that will contribute to how fast this product sells is the Link Liberation Bonus offers available. Basically what happens is that you get a bonus for buying the program through a specific link. While there are many offers out there, the Link Liberation Bonus available at MoneyTreeMarketing.com appears to be the best on the market.

I have learned from these internet marketing experts in the past and will do so again this time. If you want to learn about how to do internet marketing the right way, this is the class you need to take to get you started. The great thing is that you can start learning from these guys right away. They have all kinds of free training including videos and question and answer documents. The free training offered is a great way to get started getting more links and improving your rankings even if you don't plan to buy Link Liberation.

The Halloween Workout

Last night when I went out with the kids, I never thought I was in for a workout.  2 hours later, I was wore out and ready for bed.

My neighborhood is full of hills so walking is always a workout.  In years past, trick or treating ended quickly, but as my kids get older, they have more stamina.  We did 2 hours last night.  Wow!

On top of the walking, we took my dog.  He isn't big, but carrying him around for an hour and a half was a workout too.  He was good for the first half hour or so walking, but after that, we carried him.  By the end of the night, my arms were burning from the extra weight.

Well, I'm glad I was able to get some exercise in while gathering sugary snacks that will help ruin my diet . . . lol

Have a healthy week!

Heard of a New Supplement

As you have probably guessed, I am all about health and fitness (although that doesn't necessarily mean I live it every day).  One of the things I do on a regular basis is search the world wide web for new fitness trends and supplements.  I have researched (and tried) many different things from creatine to protein powders to maqui berries (the latest superfood to be turned into supplements).  The one thing I have decided on is that there is no "one single solution" to your health and fitness needs.

The one thing most people do agree on is that to be truly healthy, you need a combination of things.  First, you need a healthy diet because without proper nutrition, your body just can't function day in and day out.  Second, you need lots of water to keep your cells hydrated and help you clean out toxins.  Third, you have to exercise and make sure your muslce are strong.  Lastly, you need to be mentally stable to ensure your body isn't polluted with the toxins caused by stress and depression.

Now I know this seems like common sense, but when you analyze how you live compared to these simple truths, I bet you fall short in at least one area (I myself fall short in 2 or 3 of them).  Don't stress out about it though.  Just decide to do better tomorrow.  You won't be perfect, but as long as you are better, you will make progress.

Thanks for for spending a few minutes with me.  I hope you have a healthy day!

A Beautiful Sunset

How to Have a Healthy Weekend

It is Sunday and I am getting ready to end the weekend by going to bed.  Before I do, I want to write a quick post about how to have a healthy weekend.  I can't say that this was exactly my weekend, but I did some elements of it and know the other ones are where I need to improve.  Either way, the weekend is very important to living a healthy life and especially losing some weight because you can wipe out an entire week of being healthy by being unhealthy on the weekends.

There are several elements to having a healthy weekend.  The first is to make sure you drink lots of water.  Try to have more water than soda or coffee - your body will thank you.  Second, make sure you take your normal vitamins and supplements.  Just because it is the weekend, it doesn't mean you should ignore what you do to be healthy Monday through Friday.  Personally, I like acai berry for men supplements.  Lastly, try to get some physical exercise.  If you are going to be out shopping, park further away from the buildings so you do some more walking.  If you are at the mall, make a couple extra circuits.  If you are outside, do some hiking.  Just try to be active so you can burn off some of those extra calories.

These simple tips can help you keep improving your health on the weekend instead of taking a step backwards.

Thanks for reading and have a healthy week!

My Favorite Health Smoothie

Just wanted to leave a quick post with a recipe for a fruit smoothie that I drink a lot of.  Before I give you the ingredients, I want to talk about how you can make smoothies.  One option is a traditional blender.  This is great if you are making smoothies for more than one person because you can make it big.  The downside is it is big if you only want to make a single serving.  A twist on the blender is a smoothie maker that has a spout on the front.  I have used these and think they are more trouble than they are worth because the spout tends to clog up and it is one more thing that you have to clean.  The last method which I have used and use most often today is a mini blender.  I like the bullet.  Basically it allows you to make single servings and clean up quickly.

Ok, now lets talk about the smoothie.

Start with frozen fruit.  I like strawberries, peaches, and raspberries, but almost anything will work.  Put some of this frozen fruit in the blending unit.  Add liquid to cover up the fruit.  I like white grape juice because it isn't too sweet or strong tasting so the taste of the fruit comes through.  You can use water, but it waters down the taste.  If you want a boost, you can add something like acai berry powder or protein powder to make the smoothie healthier.

Whatever you choose, go make a smoothie and feel good about having something tastey!

New Favorite Restaurant

Before I tell you what my new favorite restaurant is, I need to let you know it is not healthy in any way shape or for.  In fact, it is probably so far on the other end that it is one of the most unhealthy places you could eat, but man was it good.  They are known for their cheese cakes (one of the most unhealthy dishes you can get).  Before I reveal my new favorite place to stuff my face, here is what we had at the table.

My son tired the Kobe Burger.  I don't know exactly what it is, but I know it is some sort of special beef.  I think they massage the cows (seriously, I'm not making this up).  We all had a bite and it was amazing.  My wife got the fish and chips.  We heard they had the best fish and chips and they were definitely good.  I had bbq salmon.  That was almost healthy, but it came with fried onions and I know there is lots of sugar in the bbq sauce.  My daughter had mini burgers and it was good too (not as good as the Kobe Burger though).  Everybody also had fries.  Throw in the deserts and I am sure we were all pushing 2000 calories but it was definitely good.

OK, enough suspense.  My new favorite place to pig out is . . . The Cheesecake Factory.  If you have never been there, check it out.  When you are done, make sure you plan a long cardio workout because you will need to burn some of those excess calories!

Financial Health from the California Mountains

I live in California now and I have to say it is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been.  I can go out on the back deck and excercise on the elliptical looking out into the mountains.  I can see birds circling overhead.  Deer, bobcats, and other wildlife are lible to stop by and watch.  There are so many wonderful aspects to where I am it is hard to think why everybody doesn't want to live this way.

One of the reasons California is unpopular is the tax system and cost of certain necessities.  It can be rediculously expensive at times.  Gas prices are higher than almost anywhere I have ever been.  On top of that, if you want to pay with a debit or credit card, you have to pay extra.  Unfortunately, it doesn't end there.  My electricity bill is so expensive.  The concept of cheap electricity doesn't exist in California.  There is a teired system so the more you use, the more you pay.  I have a 3 bedroom house and don't do anything crazy and I hit the highest teir every month which costs over 30 cents a kilowat hour.  Compare that to many areas in the midwest that are payin 6 cents or so and you can see how fast the cost of electricity can destroy your budget.  The costs don't stop there.  I just paid for new license plates and I don't even want to start talking about that again.

Fortunately, there are so many good things about California, I can live with the bad.  I just wish it didn't cost so much to live here.  Well, at least I have my health!

Thanks for reading and have a healthy day!
