Save Hundreds of Hours and Thousands of Dollars in Personal Advancement
Your mind is your most precious asset. You must be continually working to increase the quality of your thinking. One of the best ways is to turn driving time into learning time. Listen to educational CDs or audio cassettes in your car. The average driver, according to the American Automobile Association, drives 12,000 to 25,000 miles each year, spending 500 to 1000 hours that you spend each year in your car. That is the equivalent of 12 1/2 to 25 forty-hour weeks. This is the same as two full university semesters spent behind the wheel of your car each year. Breast Cancer
Last night I attended a seminar on Breast Cancer at my church. I was shocked and saddened to find that there were less than 20 women in attendance. I found the information very informative. During the evening I found myself wishing all of my girlfriends and sister whom I invited had attended. Ladies lets get the word out so that we can all get the information which is out there. Knowledge is power. I learnt that after the urgency of getting a diagnosis and figuring out a treatment plan, there can still be many things to manage in your daily life. If you are being or have been treated for breast cancer, certain everyday realities may make themselves known: staying organized, paying for treatment, maintaining a job, making lifestyle changes, and managing symptoms and side effects are just a few things. The information shared by Dr. Butler should have been shared with every woman in my community. But alas, we turned into an ostrich when the information was given free of charge and very important. Women, lets make an effort to do better. Let us get informed. The Law of Saving
By: Brian Tracy Financial freedom comes to the person who saves ten percent or more of his income throughout his lifetime. One of the smartest things that you can ever do for yourself is to develop the habit of saving part of your salary, every single paycheck. Individuals, families and even societies are stable and prosperous to the degree to which they have high savings rates. Savings today are what guarantee the security and the possibilities of tomorrow. Start With Yourself The first corollary of the Law of Saving comes from the book The Richest Man in Babylon by George Classon. It is to "Pay yourself first." Begin today to save ten percent of your earnings, off the top, and never touch it. This is your fund for long-term financial accumulation and you never use it for any other reason except to assure your financial future. Develop New Habits Regarding Money The remarkable thing is that when you pay yourself first, and force yourself to live on the other ninety percent, you will soon become accustomed to it. You are a creature of habit. When you regularly put away ten percent of your earnings, you soon become comfortable living on the other ninety percent. Many people start by saving ten percent of their income and then graduate to saving fifteen percent, twenty percent, and even more. And their financial lives change dramatically as a result. So will yours. Take Every Advantage The second corollary of the Law of Saving says, "Take advantage of tax deferred savings and investment plans." Because of high and even multiple tax rates, money that is saved or invested without being taxed accumulates at a rate of 30% to 40% faster than money that is subject to taxation. Self-made millionaires, according to Dr Thomas Stanley's book The Millionaire Next Door, are almost obsessive about accumulating their funds in assets such as real estate, self owned businesses and equities that increase in value without triggering tax liabilities. Invest in company pension and retirement plans, 401(k) plans, IRA's, Keough Plans, Roth IRA's, Education Investment Accounts, stock option programs and whatever else has been approved by the IRS for long term financial accumulation. Make every dollar count! Action Exercises Here are two things you can do to apply this law immediately: First, begin today to put away ten percent of your earnings. Set up a special account for this purpose and treat your contributions to this account with the same respect that you do your rent or mortgage payments each month. Second, become a lifelong student of money. Read the best books, take courses and subscribe to the most helpful magazines. Know what you are doing so you can always make intelligent decisions when you invest your funds. How Can You Attract More Wealth and Abundance?

This may sound good and if one really meant what they are saying, it stands to reason that it speaks a lot about ones character . We often times find ourselves with our backs against the wall with only our word before us to hold onto. Sometimes the saying "My word is my bond" is put to the test. What if you open a door and can't control what comes in? But, you have already committed to accepted what comes in the door. Do you still hold onto your word or wimp out ? Am I bonded to my word with limitation or if only when the end result is something I could deal with? What if the end result is something that's not in my favor should one still hold onto their word and do what they said they would do? "My word s my bond." Virtuous Women
