Look At The Flaws And The Big Picture

by Leave a Comment

Nothing is perfect. The best business is going to have a flaw or two. The best event will have some flaws as well.

Summer is a great time for people to relax, work on their businesses, and control their own schedules. That sounds incredible, but there are some flaws with summer. All of the insects don’t come out. They come in. There are more ants everyday. Figuring out how they get in is just as hard as taking them out of the house.

Google gives us a lot of different products to try. Is Google able to answer all of our questions? The answer is no, but there are many people who are happy with Google. Most people use Google for the search function while some people use Google’s products such as AdSense and Google+.

Summer and Google have their flaws. Sadly, there are a lot of people who only look at the flaws. Instead, we should look at the flaws and the big picture. Summer is a great time to relax and have fun. Summer symbolizes the end of school for 3 months and more vacation time.

Google is the difference between going to the library to look for information on a rainy day or being able to access the information you need on your computer while watching the rain fall. I do not know what it felt like to go to the library everyday to find information for a school project. I don’t want to go through that experience anytime soon, and Google prevents that from happening.

Something may not be working the way you wanted it to. Your guest post to a well-known blog could have been disapproved or you lost a lot of followers on one day. Do look at the flaws, but also look at the big picture.

If you were trying to submit a guest post, it means you had something such as a Twitter account or a blog to promote. If you lost a lot of followers on one day, it means you had a lot of followers, and going from 1,000 followers to 900 followers still means that you have 900 followers.

The big picture is a painting. The flaw is just a yellow dot on the painting. You get to choose how big you make that yellow dot.

Do you look at the flaws, the big picture, or both?

Three Upcoming Books

by Leave a Comment

I get a lot of my work done over the summer, and some of that work includes writing books. Writing is a hobby for me, and I write on multiple blogs and tweet on my account everyday. These are some of the books that you can expect to see by the end of summer:

  1. Fool’s Gold: Not everything in business is as it seems. Some methods that were working a decade ago to improve businesses don’t work now. There are also some methods you are being taught today that are inaccurate and do not apply to having a successful business. Fool’s Gold highlights the methods that work and the methods that no longer work. This book will be published by the end of June.
  2. How To Be Successful On Twitter: There are more people creating Twitter accounts everyday. However, getting thousands of quality followers takes a lot of work. This book will guide you through the process of getting thousands of followers, making money on Twitter, getting more interaction with your current followers, and other aspects of Twitter. This book will be published by the end of July.
  3. How To Become A Pro Blogger: I have been blogging for over 2 years now, and I have turned blogging into a career. I share some of the reasons that my blogs have been successful as well as the characteristics that make a successful blog. I compare three blogs that I feel stand out from the crowd. These blogs stood out from the crowd based on style, earnings, sharing, and a combination of other factors as well. All of those blogs are described in great detail in my book. There are other goodies throughout the book such as a giant list of ways to get more traffic to your blog (with explanations for each method) and various ways to monetize your blog. This book will be published by the end of August.

Why People Buy Followers

by Leave a Comment

When people buy followers (that can also mean fans and subscribers), they may know they are buying fake people. There are guides that tell people not to buy fake followers, and there will be a lot of other guides that will soon be published that talk about not buying fake followers. Despite all of these guides, buying fake followers has turned into a multimillion dollar business. But why?

The answer to me seems to be clear. The people who buy followers want a false sense of power; the ability to look bigger than they really are in front of themselves and everyone else. The account with 10,000 followers gets looked at more than the account with 100 followers. Although the 10,000 followers someone bought are fake, they fall for that false sense of power.

There are a lot of people who want power, but some people go too far just to feel powerful. Having power and feeling powerful are two different things.

Scattered Information

by 1 Comment

When it comes to essential information, it cannot be scattered. Scattered information gets lost. Being able to group a lot of information in one source will allow you to see previous information that may be important right now.

There are a lot of social networks and blogs that we see on the web. Some of the content on those social networks and blogs are really good while we have all seen our fair share of really bad content as well.

The good content is the content that you want to hold on to. You don’t hold on to the information of good content by writing it down on a small piece of paper. That results in the accumulation of small papers containing unorganized information. With a lot of small papers, a lot of them will get misplaced, even if they are really important.

If you are looking for ways to become more productive, getting rid of bad habits is a great start. There are bad habits that we all have, and all of those habits must be eliminated in order for our businesses to move forward.

You Can’t Win By Being The Person You’re Trying To Beat

Google remains the most visited search engine among the other search engines such as Yahoo and Bing. Since Yahoo bought Tumblr and there was a Google VS Bing challenge, I decided to compare the search engines.

It seems as if there are more ads on Yahoo’s search engine results than there are links to websites that are not advertised. After a head count, there are 13 non advertised links and 10 advertised links. Some of the searches tend to show fewer ads, but there are going to be at least 5 of these ads on a page. By the way, blogger Barry Schwartz points out in this post that Yahoo didn’t wish the fathers a happy Father’s Day.

That leaves Google and Bing to fight it out. In the Google VS Bing challenges, I ended up choosing Bing as the winner. The problem with the Google VS Bing challenges is that I couldn’t tell the difference. Bing wasn’t going to tell its visitors what they picked until they made their decision. That’s why I and other people who did it couldn’t tell the difference between the two search engine.

Google has been around for 8 more years than Bing. Google and Bing both get billions of searches, but Google is getting more searches than Bing by far. Looking like the best does not mean that you are the best. Bing does look like Google, but Google remains the top search engine.

If you want to stand out from the crowd, you can’t try to imitate someone who is already standing out from the crowd.

Ending On A Good Note

by Leave a Comment

No matter where your business is heading whether it be up or down, everyday must be ended on a good note. Make some progress for your business by the end of the day or do something special. What we leave behind at the end of the day has the potential to reflect what we do the next day.

Ending on a good note will allow us to jump right back where we started on the next day. Ending on a bad note will make us hesitant to do our work the next day.

I recently took my last kick for my soccer team since I aged out. The last kick I took was a goal to the right corner of the goal.
