If your attitude is about as positive as a one legged duck in a swamp full of alligators, read this. I'm going to give you seven keys to crush negativity and create a positive mindset.

The result will be that you will feel great and make more sales more often with less effort.

EXERCISE DAILY & EAT WELL.I don't know about you but I have this theory that if you eat junk and never exercise you will become an overweight unmotivated, undisciplined slob.

Not only that but odds are your breathe will stink, you'll have B.O. have a hard time buying clothes that fit and most likely die 15 to twenty years before your time.

Don't get me wrong - I'm not advocating you turn into some vegetarian, yoga-addicted, eat raw food and howl at the moon exercise junkie.

just that every day you get 30 minutes of make-your-heart-beat-faster exercise.

Why?

Endorphins!

Endorphins are the body's natural feel-good chemicals. Have stacks of them and you feel great. Deplete their supply and you feel bad. Endorphins are a strong analgesic, and make you feel great.

The release of endorphins can lower your blood pressure, a major indicator in heart disease, and have even been implicated in the fight against cancer.

Want to know how to make your endorphins grow like a demented popcorn machine on steroids?

feed them!

HINT: Endorphins thrive on exercise.

It is that simple.

Want to sell more?

Exercise.

2. feed YOUR MIND!

It constantly amazes me that so many sales people are satisfied to come home, sit down in front of the one-eyed devillike some couch potato and fill their brains with some mind-numbing 'reality' TV show whilst they yell at their kids who actually are alive!

And then, have the audacity to look all surprised when they fail to hit their monthly sales targets.

Remember the old computer saying: "Garbage in - Garbage out?"

Well the same thing is true of your brain.

Stop and ask yourself... what have I been feeding your mind this last 30 days?

• Attend seminars.
• Read books.
• Subscribe to ezines.
• Join online forums.

3. HELP SOMEONE WORSE OFF THAN YOU.

Let me tell you a true story... Last December I was in Beijing, China. It was freezing cold and as I was walking back to my luxury hotel room one night, I saw a woman sat by the side of the road.

She had a flimsy blanket and she was repeatedly re-arranging it over and over again in a futile effort to keep the cold at bay.(It was snowing hard).

I looked closer and saw that under the blanket, something was moving. It was a little boy - about 2 years old.

I walked back to a restaurant and bought some food for her and her child.

When I gave her the food she started to cry. As I tried to feed her son I saw that he was too weak to eat. She looked into my eyes and said ten words that will stay in my memory forever; "My Son will be dead by the morning, won't he?"

The lesson: You are most likely nowhere near as hard done by as you think. Go and find someone like this woman that you can help. Help regularly. It will make you 'count your blessings'.

4. WATCH YOUR TALK.

The good book tels us 'Life and death are in the power of the tongue!'

• Talk positively.
• Talk to yourself.
• Look in the mirror and tell yourself that you are great at what you do.

Use your words to edify, strengthen , encourage and inspire not just yourself but all those around you.

Stop and think for a moment... Do YOU enjoy hanging out with bitter, negative, 'gloom and doom' people? Of course you don't!

Make a 'Conscious Decision' that for the next 30 days you will speak positively ABOUT and TO everyone that you meet.

Trust me you will see a direct connection between your positive speaking and your sales results!

5. FOCUS ON MARKETING! Want to know a jealously-guarded secret of most top salespeople? They have a laser-focus on marketing.

They don't just TALK about marketing - they consistently DO something about it. Talk is dirt cheap. Actions count in selling.

TRY THIS: Start using a Daily 'To Do' List and keep a record of every specific 'lead-generating activity' that you do on a daily basis.

If you are anything like the 'average' salesperson, you will be astonished at how little you do.

You will quickly identify lead-generating opportunities. I suggest that you prepare a comprehensive list of your lead-generating systems. Measure the ones that you are actually applying and note how much and how often you apply them.

6. TRACK AND MEASURE EVERYTHING.

I have written sales copy for over 500 different offline companies and scores of website owners.

It has never ceased to amaze me how many of them are flying blind.

Fact: If you can't measure it - you can't control it' and odds are that you will never improve it.

Here's another fact for you. Highly effective sales people don't leave stuff to chance. They are diligent.

I don't care what system you use to track and measure your results. But if you aren't tracking and measuring your results - identifying what doesn't work and dropping it, working hard on the stuff that does to constantly improve it - then please forgive my totally politically incorrect language... you are an idiot.

And you will always be a mediocre salesperson at best.

When you measure results, you will not have a positive attitude problem. Your attitude will go through the roof!

For instance, I have one website that invites people to subscribe to one of my Internet Newsletters, that has close to a 100% optin rate. (and no that is far from normal).

Can you imagine how good I feel each time I tie a promotion into THAT site? I have measured the results so I know what to expect.

NOTE: There is NOTHING quite a stupid in business as salespeople who don't keep track of what works.

Perhaps you have heard the old saying; "Half our marketing works - we just don't know which half!"

- - Garbage!
- - Hogwash!
- - Ignorant twaddle!

Start tracking and measuring your activities and you will know exactly what works and your positive attitude will explode as a result!

7. HAVE A LIFE PURPOSE. It has always struck me as strange that so many people live life with all it's great potential with little or no purpose.

What about you?

Do you have a life purpose?

Something bigger than you? Something that you want so badly that each time you think about it, puts a smile on your face, a song in your heart and a spring in your step?

If not... find one.

No one else can find it for you but trust me - virtually nothing can stop you when you have a purpose.

Why?

Because purpose gives birth to vision and vision is the 'rocket fuel' of positive attitude.

Finally, if you want to fill your mind with dozens of sales-generating ideas, then you need to read my Blog, www.SalesLeadSecrets.com every day. But be warned... it is addictive. Study it often and serious possible side effects like making more sales more often could be the result.

We all know that the best way-perhaps the only way-to get the body to surrender its fat stores (something it clearly hates to do) is through exercise and reduced calorie intake.

We also know, however, that the body is particularly adept at adjusting its own internal systems in the face of exercise and, particularly, reduced food intake. It does this, of course, by adjusting to the exercise (thus the need to increase intensity) and by slowing down the metabolism (which consequently slows down fat burning). It's a perfectly natural survival instinct of the body. You see, in the face of fewer calories coming in, the body would much rather slow down the metabolism than give up the fat stores.

This is one of the main reasons why when you start out on a fat loss program you tend to make very good progress in the short term (maybe for a few weeks or a month), but you eventually reach a point where progress tapers off significantly. This is the body reacting and adjusting in a way that, unfortunately, hampers further fat reduction.

It's at this crucial point that Metabolic Thyrolean steps in. You see, this formula contains ingredients that in a sense urge your body to continue to run your metabolism on high and burn up fat tissue.

HOW IT WORKS
-------------
By focusing on three key biological areas associated with metabolism-the liver, the thyroid, and the brain- the scientific formula in Metabolic Thyrolean seeks to establish an environment within the body where metabolism and fat burning are optimized.

Let me try to explain without getting overly technical. In the thyroid gland, the reaction to a reduced calorie intake is a parallel reduction in the conversion of the hormone T4 into T3. T3 is much more metabolically active than T4, so any reduction in T3 is unwanted from the perspective of burning fat.

One of the active ingredients in Metabolic Thyrolean is guggulsterones, which have proven to stimulate production of T3 thus helping to maintain high metabolic rates.

now most of the conversion of thyroid hormones takes place, of course, in the liver and is regulated by a particular molecule known as ATP. Once again, a reduction in calorie intake leads to a reduction in ATP stores.

The natural phosphates contained in Metabolic Thyrolean can help to maintain higher ATP stores in the liver. This in turn can lead to better thyroid hormone conversion and higher levels of the metabolically active T3.

Finally, when you drop your calorie intake, your brain has an interesting and significant chemical response: neurotransmitters in the brain, which also play an important role in metabolism, become less abundant. Again, Metabolic Thyrolean attempts to address this problem by stimulating the production of these neurotransmitters primarily through the inclusion of the amino acid L-Tyrosine. L-Tyrosine is a known precursor to important neurotransmitters which naturally stimulate the metabolism.

THE HARD EVIDENCE
------------------
Moving beyond the science behind Metabolic Thyrolean, it's perhaps most important to investigate the actual clinical effects that this supplement has. Here again, the early results are extremely positive.

In a six week study of individuals on moderate exercise (three 45 minute aerobic sessions per week) and reduced calorie programs (1,800 calories per day), the group supplementing with Metabolic Thyrolean lost over 3 TIMES MORE FAT than the control group or the group given a placebo. Needless to say, that's a very significant and positive result. Here's the details:

Pounds of Fat Lost
control = 2.9 lbs.
Placebo = 3.0 lbs.
Metabolic Thyrolean = 9.48 lbs.

BOTTOM LINE
------------
If you're looking for a safe and natural way to help maintain a high metabolism and promote fat loss without stimulants or side-effects, then Metabolic Thyrolean should be right near the top of your supplement list. Early clinical results and feedback-along with its safety and affordability-lead me to believe that this just may be a true ""5-star" supplement

The apple iPhone was introduced into the world, at least to the US, on June 29th 2007. Thousands of people clamored to be the first to get their hands on an iPhone and from most accounts, they are very proud of their new acquisitions. Though apple provided the basic accessories required to use the iPhone, like most special things, it came into the world naked. So after investing $500 to $600 on an iPhone it only makes prudent sense to invest a few extra dollars in an iPhone case to protect it.

Initial product stress tests of the apple iPhone have been quite impressive. apple wisely switched to optical grade glass for the innovative touch screen of the iPhone and it is almost impossible to scratch it. Even with a key. This, however, doesnt mean it should be left unprotected and the rest of the iPhone is still prone to dings and scratches.

The solution to protecting your new iPhone is actually quite simple, though all the talk about skins, cases, wallets, and screen protectors can be a little bewildering. Dont worry, below are the options available for protecting your iPhone and the good news is that they typically cost much less than your monthly bill with AT&T.

Types of iPhone cases:

*iPhone Skins -- a skin is just a cover that completely wraps around your iPhone with cutouts to allow you access to the touch screen, main navigation button, as well as the side buttons, charger, and camera. iPhone skins are made from silicone, which is a flexible, yet rugged type of plastic. The benefit of a skin, is that it will protect the surfaces of your iPhone from nicks and scratches and even offer some protection if dropped. However, dont rely on a silicone skin to offer you complete protection against drops.

IPhone skins come in clear silicone as well as several popular colors ranging from feminine pink to stealth black. Some iPhone skins also come with a screen protector and neck strap, but be sure to check the product details to make certain.

*Phone cases and Wallets -- a step up in style and convenience is an iPhone case or wallet. Many of these cases also include a belt clip so you can keep your iPhone at the ready. Unlike cell phone holsters, a case or wallet fully protects your iPhone when not in use. cases and wallets typically come in both leather and canvas varieties and in a wide range of styles. Chose the type that best suits your usage and expresses your personal style. You may even want several cases to match different clothing and occasions!

*iPhone screen Protectors -- an iPhone screen protector typically is a piece of very thin silicone with an adhesive backing that covers the entire front of the iPhone. Like a skin, it also has a circular cutout to expose the main navigation button at the bottom of the iPhone. A skin can then be placed over the screen protector. Not all iPhone screen protectors are created equal though. The better ones have dust resistant and anti-glare properties. Many iPhone skins and cases already come with a screen protector so you typically dont need to purchase one separately.

An apple iPhone is a truly innovative technology product that is a joy to own. Their owners have every right to be proud and can be forgiven, at least for now, for showing them off every chance they get. And you can tell a truly proud and worthy apple iPhone owner by how they have chosen to dress up and protect their baby.

Back pain can be caused by a variety of reasons and is generally a very painful condition that requires diligent attention and treatment. pains below the waist are often called lower back pains and can be caused my muscle pulls or straining the muscles with heavy work or lifting heavy objects, moving or sleeping in awkward position etc.

Spinal infections and fractures might also cause lower back pain. In most cases the cause of the problem is that a particular nerve or a set of nerves are being pinched. The pinching can be caused due to the rupture of a disc in the spinal card or when a disc bulges and presses a nerve root. This causes a lot of pain to the patient. Sometimes the pain will decrease or go away completely by sitting or bending in a particular position etc. but if the pain continues, a check-up is necessary

Lower back surgery is the solution when such a pain continues for a period of time or becomes unbearable. Before considering lower back surgery, the patient has to consult their doctor or physician and check out the various options available and also get a complete information about the lower back surgery procedure, its recovery procedures, risks involved, expected costs etc.

Sometimes other options like traction, physiotherapy and others can be used in the place of lower back surgery if the problem is mild and curable. Lower back surgery is not a minor surgery and has to be approached with care. patients are normally advised to do mild exercises and keep themselves healthy before the operation and might also be told to quick smoking.

The surgery might involve making cuts and incisions and moving the muscles so that the surgeon gets a good look and approach on the spine, the discs etc. Newer inventions like Lasers and bone grafts with genetically engineered protein that induce a persons bones to grow and fuse together have been making the lower back surgery a more simple, safe and easy procedure. They help the surgeon by removing the need to make large cuts or incisions etc and help the patient by reducing the risks and pain involved , thus speeding up the recovery procedure.

After the lower back surgery, the patients should try to maintain good health and fitness. Exercises will be advised for the patient for the patient. Exercises or other treatments like yoga etc have to be practiced with great care and only with qualified teachers. Also the teachers or trainers should be aware of the lower back surgery and details.
