GET UP AND WIN THE RACE

Whenever I start to hang my head in front of failure’s face,
my downward fall is broken by the memory of a race.
A children’s race, young boys, young men; how I remember well,
excitement sure, but also fear, it wasn’t hard to tell.

The Race Poem - Image Of The Children Racing To Win

They all lined up so full of hope, each thought to win that race
or tie for first, or if not that, at least take second place.
Their parents watched from off the side, each cheering for their son,
and each boy hoped to show his folks that he would be the one.

Network Marketing Myth – You Lose Friends And Spoil Relationships

Kumar Gauraw

Faced with what is right, to leave it undone shows a lack of courage. ~Confucius [tweet this]

A few years ago when I was exposed to the network marketing business industry, I got two sets of information almost at the same time from two different sources. Interestingly, they were also just opposite to each other.

The set of people who showed me the business idea, were very positive and passionate about it. They were highly educated people with high profile professional careers. In short, they had what I wanted to have in terms of money, education and success professionally speaking. They shared why they chose network marketing and showed me why it was a good idea for me to give it a serious consideration.

The other set of people were my colleagues and a few friends who were around the same level in their careers as myself. I started to get their inputs when I asked them of their opinion of this business idea (As I always did before doing anything new). Many of them were aware of this industry and yet they were not participating because they believed it wasn't a good idea.

How To Reduce Stress And Increase Productivity For A High Quality Life

Kumar Gauraw

Have you been in a situation where you are thinking about spending time with family while at work and then, at home you found yourself worrying about the job? It’s not very uncommon and personally, I have caught myself doing that many times and then thinking, "How can I reduce stress and increase my productivity?"

Living like that is very stressful way of living. It becomes hard to be productive at work and enjoy the family time while at home (and if you relate to this situation, you will agree). Naturally, a stressed mind can’t be effective at anything and if soon we do not make some changes, it drains our motivation, gives fatigue and in some case, it may cause some relationship troubles as well.

"Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things." ~Robert Brault [tweet this]

Just out of college, I was looking to start my career when I got introduced to this newly married couple. They were made for each other and especially I was fascinated by their love story with solid twists and turns. Soon we became good friends.

How Cloudflare Supercharges Your Website Security And Performance

Kumar Gauraw

We all know the importance of fast loading website pages. In addition, website security is another concern for most website owners because a hack can be devastating especially to small business owners.

Supercharge Your WordPress Website With CloudFlare Performance And Security

These were my two main concerns since I have several of my own websites plus client websites to support.

Whether you have a personal website, company site, blog, website security definitely is your biggest challenge and then, a fast loading website brings so many additional benefits.

CloudFlare offers both the benefits to you at once. Faster loading times, more security, happier visitors, better SEO and thus, more business!

TED Talk by Amy Cuddy- Fake It Until You Become It

Kumar Gauraw

Have you ever wondered if there was a way to inject self confidence and positive mental attitude? Harvard researcher Amy Cuddy says, "Your body language shapes who you are!" [tweet this]

In this incredible TED Talk that I just watched, social psychologist Amy Cuddy shows how “power posing” (standing in a posture of confidence), even when we don’t feel confident,can affect testosterone and cortisol levels in the brain, and might even have an impact on our chances for success.

Amy Cuddy, in this TED Talk, shares her research on body language that reveals how we can change other people’s perceptions — and even our own body chemistry — simply by changing body positions.

Kumar Gauraw

Anyone who has never made a mistake, has never tried anything new. ~Albert Einstein [tweet this]

We all make mistakes in life, learn from them and move on. In business as well, while selling our ideas, products or services, we do make a few mistakes and the same process repeats – we correct them, learn from them and move to the next steps.

While this is how we all learn and grow, how do we ensure success in sales? If that is your challenge, here are the most common 5 sales mistakes people make that can potentially break the sales process or even damage their reputation. I have made all of these mistakes at some point and I often remind myself to be careful about not repeating them again.
