The Dangers of tobacco smoking

Tobacco smoking is the primary cause of preventable death in the
world. Every year, thousands of Americans are diagnosed with
lung cancer that was brought about specifically from smoking.
Most smokers are bombarded with reasons to quit smoking every
day, and there are hundreds of stop smoking tips, quit smoking
aids and quit smoking support groups. However, none of the ways
to quit smoking can work for you if you are not ready to give up
your habit. Knowing what tobacco smoking does to you can help
you make up your mind to begin your trek toward a healthier life.

People Should Smoking Stop Why? Faith can move mountains…

Tobacco smoking is perhaps the worst thing you could do to your
body. There have been a variety of studies that demonstrate that
smoking shortens your life by six minutes for every cigarette
you smoke. When you think about this in terms of packs a day,
you are shortening your life by two hours for every pack of
cigarettes you smoke. That is quite a forgoing to make just for
smoking.

A person with some doubt but taking action is better than one
with no doubt taking no action. Michael E. Angier

Another argument to quit tobacco smoking is that it is costly.
Cigarette prices are always on the rise as more and more sin
taxes are added. In states such as New York, one pack of
cigarettes can cost more than seven dollars. If you add up all
of that money, a pack a day smoker could save more than two
thousand dollars a year if he or she quit smoking.

Tobacco smoking persons are also twice as expected to have heart
attacks than non-smokers. They are also five times as likely to
die from these heart attacks than those who do not smoke or who
quit smoking at a youthful age. Tobacco smoking stops
circulation in some individuals, and this can lead to stroke. In
fact, smokers are five times more likely to suffer strokes than
non-smokers. This is noticeably perilous if you are taking birth
control pills, as the risk for stroke is even larger, especially
if you are over the age of thirty.

The most dangerous part of tobacco smoking, however, is what it
can do to your lungs. Smoking is leading cause of lung cancer in
the world. Though non-smokers can also get lung cancer, smokers
greatly increase their chances beyond those of non-smoking
individuals. Smokers are also at risk for formation emphysema,
an incurable breathing disease.

Actions speak louder than words. But without thought and focus
those actions are like a meandering river. Michael Ross.

Though tobacco smoking causes some irreversible damage, there is
good advice for those who decide to quit smoking. It only takes
ten years after you stop smoking before you lungs return to
normal. This means that if you stop smoking now, you can have a
new lease on life within ten years. In summation, the immediate
effects of stopping smoking are even more exciting.

What is it that drives some businesses downhill over the years, while others continue to grow stronger? What is the key to success? Some believe the solution is found in the process of strategic management. This process gives direction to the organization through a vision of the whole picture and objectives. This vision becomes a reality as a plan is developed and specific goals at all levels are identified. The long-term success of an organization is attainable with strategic management but unless the necessary support is used to carry out the plans, even the most effective planning efforts will under deliver the results. When applying strategic management, you will find success in this four-step process called FAME, consisting of Formulating, Accomplishing, Monitoring, and Repetition.

Formulate

The first step of the strategic management process determines the destination of the organization. It is decided where the organization is now, where it wants to go, and how it plans to get there. The executive team is largely accountable for developing the plan because it is their responsibility to create the course and direction of the organization. Even though they develop the plan, every individual is responsible for making it become a reality. The vision should filter down through the levels to each individual so it is understood by everyone.

Everyone must understand that this plan is for every individual at every level in the organization, not just the managers. To help make each person feel as if they are a contributing to the vision, goals must be set at all levels of the organization, from company-wide objectives down to individual goals. Make sure each individual understands their responsibilities and how they fit in to the big picture.

Accomplish

A lot of hard work is required now that it’s time to accomplish the proposed plan. After having just developed the plan and objectives, the entire organization is often energized and motivated about reaching goals. However, as soon as the motivation wears off and the real effort begins, the focus can become blurred. It is really easy to be knocked off track at this point. For this reason it is essential to keep motivating the team members and keep the energy level up. This can be accomplished with the following suggestions:

• Responsibility. Assigning specific responsibilities and tasks to individuals helps them feel important and needed. Knowing that they are solely responsible for accomplishing a task will make them feel like an essential asset to the team
  
• Rewards. Providing recognition to employees for their performance and acknowledging their contributions go a long way. Anything from a sincere “Thank You” to a cash incentive will let them know their hard work is appreciated.

This is a critical step for managers as they maintain the focus for their team. Managers are usually more familiar with the company objectives and can use their understanding of the long-term objectives to make better decisions for their employees and help with any obstacles that might come up.

Monitor

Successful strategic management does not end at the conclusion of the planning meeting or the beginning of the execution phase. It continues day in and day out as each team member carries out the plan’s objectives. However, implementing the plan will be much more effective if periodic monitoring occurs. Monitoring is critical for measuring progress. It will ensure that the organization is on track to completing the plan and is accomplishing what was intended. The entire process of strategic management is dynamic and demands continual reassessment. Even with the most comprehensible plan place, it is possible to lose sight completing the intended objectives.

Repeat

Repetition of the process is the difference between long term success and failure. With each repetition, the organization will see improvements that can be made to the plan. For instance, existing elements will be modified, new components may be added, and attention and resources may be redistributed. The process of repetition will also affect individuals. As each team member better understands the direction of the company, they will improve their ability to prioritize their immediate and long term objectives and will be confident with their responsibilities and decision-making skills. Ultimately, the strategic management process will improve, and this will lead to better planning and more success in the years to come.

An interesting phenomenon is happening in the treadmill market these days: a lot of home treadmills are being called ‘commercial grade treadmills’. This can be very confusing for the treadmill buyer.

What’s the difference between a commercial grade treadmill a home treadmill, and an actual commercial treadmill?

First of all there are 2 main categories of treadmills: commercial and home treadmills.

Commercial treadmills differ from home treadmills in that they are made for harsher environments, like the gym or health club, and they are built to withstand frequent use. Because of this they are built with a much higher grade of components and subsequently cost more.

For example, most commercial treadmills come with a 4 ply treadbelt instead of the 2 ply treadbelt standard to most home treadmills. They also usually come with a much higher powered motor, built with heavier duty commercial parts.

Commercial treadmill prices are much higher and many of them start at $4000+ whereas home treadmills can range from $400 to $3000.

Here’s where it can get confusing: Although there used to be more of a difference between commercial and home treadmills, the line is blurring as more and more people buy ‘commercial grade’ treadmills for their homes.

Because of this, brands like Landice put out 2 versions of their treadmill lines: the Limited (or LTD) series of treadmills - built for high end home or light commercial use, and the Club series- built for heavy club or gym environments.

And former commercial treadmill brands like Sole, (who have been supplying treadmills to hotels like Hilton for years) are now making their treadmills available to the home market - for a home treadmill price.

These treadmills can truly be called ‘commercial grade’ meaning they could be used as a commercial treadmill but is mainly suited for the high end home gym.

However I’ve noticed that even the cheaper brands of home treadmills are now starting to call their higher end treadmills ‘commercial grade’.

This doesn’t necessarily mean it is suitable for a health club or even a high end home gym. In my opinion, it simply means that the treadmill was built with heavier grade components than other treadmills in that brand’s line up. It may still be a great buy if you like that brand name.

However, if I wanted to buy a commercial grade treadmill for my home I would not choose these cheaper brand names - but that’s just my preference.

Bottom line? When looking at commercial treadmills for a health club or gym, consider the brand. Make sure it is a well known commercial brand with a solid reputation. Some examples are Landice, LifeFitness and Star Trac.

When looking for a higher end ‘commercial grade’ treadmill for your home gym, consider a ‘lighter’ version of a commercial treadmill model or a home treadmill brand that is known for higher end machines. It will serve you just as well and cost you thousands less. For more examples of top rated commercial and commercial grade treadmills visit:

http://www.treadmillreview.net/Article_Commercial_Treadmills.html,

One last note: Keep in mind that commercial treadmills take up a lot more space than home treadmills and they’re also much heavier. They may not fold so make sure you have several strong lifters when you have the treadmill delivered.

Good luck and have fun!

I look forward each day during the winter. To some, lamenting
the past days of fall with its bright foliage in the landscape,
and feeling down that the dull days of winter are here. For me I
have grown to appreciate each day and look forward to interests
in landscapes that are there knowing that many dazzling displays
can be found by careful observation. The days are short and the
nights are long here in Bucks County Pa.. Yet growing plants and
enjoying plants are year round activities that bring many
quality hours of enjoyment. Watering plants can be be on your
list of things to do. Make it a point to get out and check on
your plants. The ground may not be frozen and plants still use
water. If the ground is not frozen you can still water if the
ground will accept the water. Most plants are dormant so the
amount of watering is not as high as in the hotter seasons.
Evergreens lose water through their needles in the winter. So if
one keeps watering as long as possible into the winter,
seedlings and plants will suffer less stress. Winter drying of
evergreens is a major stress factor in overwintering. Snow and
ice on your plants can be problematic. Tall thin plants are not
as sturdy a plant. They tend to bend under snow loads and may
require staking later to train them strait. If your small plants
have a light amount of snow covering them you may ease the snow
burden by lightly sweeping the snow with a broom. Don’t shake
them, they are like babies … they get shaken baby syndrome. If
snow or ice is frozen to the branches, allow it to melt rather
than attempting to correct. If any branches are broken, you
probably don’t need to do anything unless there is a split in
the trunk. If the breakage of the plant is sever, the seedling
or liner should be discarded. The labor to correct is not worth
the value of the plant. Also a poor quality seedling will
probably be a poor quality mature plant. There is a market for
such plants however, we have had many customers who want, ”
Charley Brown Trees” or stunted trees for unusual customer
needs. Warm spells in the winter occur. Suddenly, there can be
days of warmer temperatures. This should not be a problem. When
a warm spell occurs, get out and use some shoe leather and wear
out those leather gloves. Its a great to have a break in mid
winter and you can prepare for spring. If you have covering on
or over the plants, you may need to ventilate. We normally open
the doors to our greenhouses and this is usually all that is
necessary. Cold frame temps may rise so ventilation will be
helpful. Close up as nightfall arrives as the temperature will
fall. Note that when sunlight intensity is high, plant tissues
become active. Water loss at this time can’t be replaced if the
root are frozen. This is called plant desiccation. Also if there
many freeze-thaw cycles, the crown of the plant will be heaved
up exposing the roots. Root systems have a lower tolerance to
temperature extremes and can killed by freezing low
temperatures.A common way to prevent desiccation is to screen
plants in exposed areas with Burlap . Varmint control is
important in the winter. Mice and rabbits feed constantly .
Their teeth grow constantly and they love to chew on tender
plants. We spread rat and mice bait about every two to threes
weeks as long as we see it being consumed. Try and place the
baits in a place where its easy to monitor, dry, and accessible
only to the varmints. When the snow gets deep mice will feed up
higher on the plants. They don’t like to dig in the snow for
food. They take the easy to reach food first. Thus tracks in the
snow are an important sign to watch for. Mouse damage is usually
not correctable. You may not see root feeding damage to stock
till spring, so over baiting is the best solution. Care should
be taken that the baits are only available to the target
varmint. Viburnums are the most attractive, versatile, adaptable
shrubs for any landscape. They can be used as hedges or screens
and in mixed perennial/shrub borders. They can also stand alone
as specimen plants. They usually take the form of shrubs, but
some species can become small ornamental trees. They range in
size from the Dwarf American Cranberry bush at 2 feet tall by 2
feet wide, to the Siebold at over 15 feet tall. We feel that
Viburnums are plants that have great winter interest. All
Viburnums have white to pink flowers in the spring. The foliage
is large, attractive and often textured leaves. Some viburnums
have fragrant flowers that are produced in snowball shaped
clusters in April. Their flower clusters can consist of pink
buds, which develop into white flowers. Some fruits are red and
turn black with age usually bitter tasting. Leaves can be
glossy, dark green and turn a burgundy color in the fall.
Midsummer berries are an important food source for birds.
Viburnums have colorful red to purple leaves. Some viburnums can
become medium-size trees, especially if they are pruned.
Viburnums excel as specimen plants or as anchors in mixed
borders. You won’t find a more versatile group of shrubs for
hedges or for massing in groups, since viburnums hold their own
in every season. Some viburnums, such as Prague viburnum
‘Pragense’, are evergreen. Others, such as leather leaf
viburnum, are semi-evergreen in colder climates, losing their
leaves when temperatures dip below 10 degrees. The great feature
of Viburnums is that they are adaptable. While they would like
full sun and moderately watered, well-drained rich soils, they
will grow very well in part shade, and in clay soils. Diseases
and pests rarely attack them and they don’t tend to have to be
spayed. My kids have run over them with brush hogs and they
survived. Their fibrous root system makes them transplant
easily. In your search for a good, hardy shrub with winter
interest consider the Viburnum family.

Viburnums have long been popular garden plants, known for their
white, sometimes fragrant spring flowers, and their fall color.
But it’s the Asian viburnums that have so far been most
noteworthy. Perhaps the most liked viburnums are the Burkwood
viburnum (Viburnum x burkwoodii), and the Korean spice viburnum
(V. carlesii), both of which fill your landscape with pleasant
odors in the spring. Also popular is the doublefile viburnum (V.
plicatum f. tomentosum), valued for its layered habit, fall
foliage, and clusters of red fruits. Viburnum acerifolium
(Maple-leafed viburnum) Although I wouldn’t plant a landscape
without viburnums, I have a special fondness for several of our
native viburnums. They may not provide the great flower
fragrance of their Asian counterparts, but I love them not only
for their rich fall colors ,but for that fact they help attract
and feed so many of our wild birds that liven up our landscape
during the long winter. In addition, several are great for urban
conditions. They require only corrective pruning, and seldom
commonly suffer from pests or diseases. I would be hard pressed
to say which viburnum I would choose if I could only have one.
Viburnums are moist woodland plants. In nature they are found
along steam banks from Long Island to Florida. When you come to
our 5275 West Swamp Rd. location ask us to show some in their
native habitat that we found along our stream bank. These plants
perform well under normal landscape conditions. I especially
like the floral display in the spring and these viburnums that
bear fruit in the fall. Winterthur has great red leaves and
abundant fruit in the fall. This cultivar needs a cross
pollinator such as viburnum nudum. If you want things to do in
the winter this is when I cut back our viburnums. Pressing
issues of the other seasons always leaves my viburnums to stand
alone untouched. It is mid winter and I always enjoy trimming
back these plants then. I see all the nests that the birds have
built and can work without disturbing their families. It seems
to me that it is easier to cut back and trim now for I always
feel bad in the summer when I trim out green foliage. When
trimming foliage I always guilty cutting greens off of the
plants. Wintertime frees me from those demons. You can see more

Leadership, Visualization, Goal-setting, blah, blah…

All network marketers have heard that jargon at one time or another. But you know what? It’s just that - Jargon.

When you share with your team, the lessons you have learnt while building your business - that’s Leadership.

When you imagine that new car or house on the beach, that you’re going to buy next year with the income from your business - now that’s Visualization.

And when you plan exactly how you’re going to go about getting that new car or house - well, that’s Goal-setting.

It’s that simple…

And yet people complicate it so much that they write entire books, and have entire courses to teach you these “skills.”

But they’re missing the whole point, really. Because network marketing is really about customers.

Think about it.

Why do companies get into network marketing? DUH. To sell products, of course!

And why do they choose to sell their products through network marketing?

Because network marketing is really the most efficient way of selling products.

After all it’s all about people selling (or recommending) products they USE to their own network of friends and acquaintances. To people who TRUST them.

So if you want to serve your customers better through your network marketing business, here are a few things to ask yourself.

1. Are you in the service business or recruitment business?

If you are in the business of helping people - whether to become healthier, or financially independent - you should consider yourself as providing a service. And a service runs on customers.

Sure, there are plenty of people out there who want to start a home business or join a business opportunity.

But if you focus on the opportunity, you’ll be competing with a whole lot of other, more established networking companies, for a new prospect’s time and money.

Instead, if you focus on your products (and I’m assuming they are unique, excellent products that meet a real need), you’ll have very little competition.

Besides, it’s so much easier to sell a product than to sell a dream.

2. Is your product right for them?

I’ve seen people recommending their products to customers as a “miracle” solution to all their problems. This is not only misleading, but is bound to backfire.

Ask yourself - are there other options for my customers? Are there cheaper, perhaps more effective options, that can help them?

Perhaps they can’t afford your product right now. Or perhaps there are other, albeit less effective options, that might meet their immediate needs better.

Almost everyone needs to get healthier, or richer. But how they choose to achieve their goals should be their choice, not yours.

Certainly, give your customers all the information they need about your products. It’s not your duty to suggest alternatives.

But sometimes the best way you can serve them is by letting them know that they are free to explore their options and get back to you when they’ve decided that your product meets their needs best.

You’ll not only have a grateful customer, but also build trust and goodwill. Your customer will think of you as someone to depend on, and come back to you when they need advice.

Yes, you might lose a customer, but you’ll have gained a friend.

3. Do they really need the business opportunity?

Once you get a new customer, do you instantly start shoving the business opportunity down their throat? If so, you’re doing them a disservice.

Yes, do show your customer how they can reduce (or even completely recover) their costs by becoming a distributor and recommending the products to their friends.

Offer them what they want - a cheaper way to purchase your products.

But also accept that some of them may just want to keep buying products without ever building a business.

And appreciate them for contributing to your paycheck.

Ultimately all business is about building trust. So the next time you process an order or answer a query, focus on building a relationship, rather than a business.

If you’re a friend to your customer and do what’s right for them, you can be secure in the knowledge that what goes around will definitely come around.

16. Special Greeting

If your mate has to work late and you know he had a bad day, surprise him with a late-night gourmet meal. When you hear him arrive home, greet him in new, sexy lingerie, a warm kiss, and wonderful hot meal. After he picks himself up off the floor, he will fall in love with you all over again for this wonderful greeting. If reversed and the woman is coming home, after giving her a lingering kiss, have her join you in the dining room where the table is set with soft glowing candles and a wonderful meal. Have an envelope lying by her plate that when opened, she will read, “This certificate is good for one thirty-minute massage after dinner.” This is how you keep romance alive!

17. Just Because

Give your mate gifts “just because.” These do not have to be expensive whatsoever. For example, one woman had a miniature dish collection in her kitchen. Her husband came home and told her that he had a gift for her. Holding out her hand, he gently placed in her hand a miniature porcelain cup with her name neatly written in blue ink. She knew that this cup probably cost no more than $2.00 but the thought that he would take the time to find something she enjoyed, was worth $1 million. The small gifts packed with thought are far more cherished.

18. Say it with Words

Surprise your mate with little notes found in unexpected places. If your mate travels for work, place a loving note somewhere in their suitcase. Perhaps they have a long commute to work. If so, slip a note saying, “I love you,” in their CD case where you know they will find it. Another recommendation is sticking a note on the bathroom mirror so this will be the first thing seen in the morning. Be creative and have some fun with this.

What?

Learn to stop…when you think you should go! It is very counterintuitive for most people to do this. However, when you learn to do this, your productivity (and life) will improve.

So What?

People often like to brag about how busy they are and how much they have going on. However, if you consistently feel overwhelmed, here’s what is really going on:

• You are setting unrealistic time frames for what you are trying to do.

• You are procrastinating too long.

• You are spending too much time working on things that do not matter.

• You are over-promising what you can do for someone.

• You do not have the profound knowledge needed to do the task.

• You do not know when and how to say “No.”

The list can go on and on, but here’s the point. All of these reasons have two things in common. Feeling overwhelmed is the result of faulty thinking and making some bad choices in the past. The solution is stunningly simple. Change your thinking and begin making better choices right now…today…this minute. Quit making choices that lead you down the path to being stressed-out, anxious and overwhelmed. The typical response to anxiety is action. Action drives out thought. Doing something without thinking about it creates anxiety…and the cycle continues.

Now What?

The job of a problem is to get your attention. Being overwhelmed is a problem. Therefore, being frequently overwhelmed should be a sign that you are doing something wrong. Look around. There are people doing what you do without being overwhelmed. There are people doing much more than you are doing without being overwhelmed. The workload isn’t the real problem…it’s how you approach your work that is the problem.

When you encounter a problem, stop and ask yourself, “What’s the real problem? How can I make it go away?”

What could be better than exceeding your personal sales goals
for a given month or year? How about doubling, tripling or even
more of you sales goal for the month? This is exactly what
affiliates can do for you. The amount of growth potential
through affiliates is unlimited; the more affiliates you have
the more money you can make, after all, if Sam Walton tried to
run every Wal-Mart store, he obviously wouldn’t be very
successful. You must realize that for maximum growth you cannot
do it alone. Think of the success of companies such as Avon or
Home Interiors. Their success is based on two things; a great
product and excellent affiliate programs.

To attract affiliates to your company you should make it worth
their time. Offering one percent of sales, is not an attractive
offer, the higher the commission that you are able to offer your
affiliates the more affiliates will be tempted to join your
team. You should also provide your affiliates with the tools
that they will need to successfully market your product such as
banner ads, articles, and anything else that will help them to
better market the product. You should provide the affiliates
with updated product information through newsletters, new
promotional campaigns and other things to motivate and inform
the affiliates.

You can choose to run your affiliate program in a few different
ways, both of which are beneficial to your business. A one-tier
affiliate program allows you to generally offer a larger
commission and pays on one level. The affiliate will receive a
predetermined amount for each sale. Using a two-tier affiliate
program, affiliates are paid on two different levels. This is
done by allowing the affiliates to recruit others to sell under
them. In this situation, the top level affiliate would receive a
slightly larger commission than the recruit or second level
affiliate. For example if the top level seller makes 20% of the
sale, then she/he would make 15% giving the second level
affiliate the 5%.

Setting up the affiliate program can also be done in two
different ways. One way is to do it yourself through an
affiliate tracking software. This software will provide you with
a way to track affiliate sales as well as allow the affiliates
to view their progress. The downside to this option is that you
are responsible for making payments. You can also choose to hire
an affiliate tracking company to do all the work for you. These
companies will allow the use of credit cards and completely run
the affiliate program from billing customers, paying affiliates,
and also pay you. This is a great option for the busy business
owner or the beginning business owner and it is affordable as
most affiliate tracking companies charge a small one time fee.
However you choose to run your affiliate program it is sure to
increase profits for your business.

Sometimes we need money and we need it fast. With no other option left, we look at the lenders. It is indeed difficult, but not impossible to find a lender, which is sensitive enough to our time constraints. Fast-secured loans help us get that instant money but it takes a little alertness on our part to get the things move really ‘fast’. Some lenders offer a loan guarantee that if they are not able to provide loan within a stipulated time, they will compensate you for the delay. To get a fast loan is it is crucial that you find a really fast lender and quickly complete the documentation.

If we know what causes the delay in lending process, we can make things faster. Getting a secured loan involves a lot of paperwork and verification. The lending process starts when you fill an application form for a secured loan. Most of the lending companies nowadays have their own website. The most convenient way to apply for a secured loan is to apply it online. This will save the time for you as well as for the lenders. Online application instantly provides the lenders with your details and requirements.

Most of us behave casually while filling up the application form. We simply do not give all the details that are required, give incorrect information, act shrewd by hiding vital information and expect the lending agent to arrive with a briefcase full of cash at our doorstep the very next morning. Needless to say, any such effort meets with disappointment and adds further steps into the lending process. The lenders will sometimes simply refuse to look at any such carelessly filled in application form. To get a quick callback, give all the details correctly and reply promptly to any enquiries from the lenders.

After the preliminary application process is completed the lenders will give you offers from which you will have to choose a secured loan. Simultaneously, they will perform credit checks and the property valuation to verify your credentials. It will be better if you are prepared in advance for such a check. Be ready with your bank account details, credit card statements, pay slips, details of any previous debts and debt repayment history, if any. Since the loan offered is a secured loan, the house, property or anything else, which is being offered as the collateral, must have proper legal claim and clear titles. Take care of timings and appointments; make sure that you meet all the lending professionals as and when scheduled. The visit of an independent property consultant and attorney will be the most important visit during any secured loan process. Be there when they come.

Any defaults in payment will lead to the repossession of vehicle.
