Tips & Tidbits
=================================================

For a lot of us, our business can seem to consume
our lives. We have to try not to let this happen.
Here are some things you can do to prevent your
business from taking over your life:

1. Set aside some time every day for family. Having
a little time with your family is very relaxing,
invigorating and refreshing. Have a family movie,
play board games, take a family walk or bike ride,
or have a picnic. There are so many simple things you
can do with your family that do not require a lot of
time and/or money.


2. Set aside some time for yourself. This is something
that we all need sometimes. Just site, relax, read a
good book, listen to music, watch TV or just relax
with a cup of coffee. Whatever it is that soothes you
and refreshes your mind. Taking a little solo time
will make family and work time much more enjoyable.

3. Organize your time. This simple yet effective task
will enable to do much more work and have more family
time than just going from one thing to another, trying
to figure out what to do next.

4. Exercise. This is another thing you can do with
family or solo. Go for a nice brisk walk or hop on your
bike and go for a ride. Exercise is a great stress
reducer and it also helps refresh your mind.

5. Get involved with your kids lives. Talk to them.
By doing this you will feel much more in control in
your personal and work life. This will give you a
stability you might not feel otherwise.

6. Have a date night with your hubby/wife or sweetheart.
Sometimes we get lost in our lives and don't take time
to really be with each other. To do this is extremely
important because if we are happier and more relaxed
with our mate, that feeling will spill out into other
areas of our lives, making us more productive.

Turn An Arts And Crafts Hobby Into A Business!
by BB Lee (C)2004

Are you searching for a quick way to make an extra income?

Why not turn that Cooking Interest, Comic Book Collecting,
or Your Retro Clothing Collection Into A Home Based
Business Venture!

Most people enjoy hobbies they have pursued with great
enthusiasm for years. Even though they may find their
leisure activities fulfilling and enjoyable they never
imagined making money with a fun hobby!

The world is packed with amazingly talented people.

Are you one of these gifted individuals?

These talented individuals might have a passion for
sewing fabulous original wardrobes, marvelous hand
knitted items, furniture making, creative paintings,
photographs, jewelry art, greeting card design, doll
making, original toys, baby clothing, candle making,
quilting, calligraphy, fancy soap making, about
anything you can imagine!

Crafting is actually a great way to start a
home business on a shoe string. You might want
to start on a small scale by offering your
creative work to friends and family. Later
on, once you have enough products, you might decide
to rent a booth at local flea markets or crafts shows
to display your work.

As you may know the Arts And Crafts Industry Is Enjoying
An Amazingly Phenomenal Popularity. People are eager to
purchase hand made clothing, furniture, custom made
keepsakes or jewelry. If you have the creative talent this
is one business you should consider!

A friend, Joyce, diverted her obsession with candle making
into a thriving business. She started by selling her
hand made scented candles to friends and neighbors. Word of
mouth spread about her candles. Soon she was
receiving enough orders to keep her very busy.

Joyce throws house parties to sell her candles and
also takes custom orders from ads she runs in
local newspapers. Next, she plans to take her
candles to the stores and malls in her area.

I recently read about a middle aged fellow who turned his
knowledge about collecting rare comic books into a thriving
business.

Imagine?

Several hundred of his old comic books are now worth their
weight in gold. And his wife is no longer protesting
about the space the old editions take up in their home.

Think about it!

What's your passion?

What's your leisure time interest?

Could your leisurely pursuits translate into a lucrative business?

***Today's Teaser and Puzzle***

On a faraway island there was a kingdom in which the
inhabitants had either blue eyes or brown eyes. It was a
small island, so that with every passing day, everyone on
the island saw everyone else. However, there were no
mirrors or anything else that reflected, so no one knew
the color of his or her own eyes. One day the king
decreed the following:
1) At least one of you has blue eyes, and
2) if you wake up in the morning and realize you have
blue eyes, you must leave the island at once, without
letting anyone see you.

Well, it turns out that there were precisely ten people on
the island with blue eyes. Given that everyone on the
island was capable of perfect logical reasoning and
that everybody on the island knew about the logical
abilities of their fellow islanders, what do you suppose
happened to them following the king's decree?

Solution can be found at....
