Having all these in your mind, you tend to stay in bed all night fully awake and having a hard time putting yourself to sleep. You should never deprive yourself of sleep and a good rest, without having that, you will wake up the next day feeling down, cranky or impatient. This is not something healthy for you, your family and your work. With so many things on your mind it is impossible for you to relax even during the time you close your eyes. There are people who fix on little things and consider them a life threatening situation if it is undone which causes them to stop relaxing even if there is a need to do so. These are people who even worry about things if their backs are already touching the bed. Meditation You need to understand how important sleep is and you must submit yourself on practices that may reward you with a chance to prioritize daily rest and good night’s sleep. If your mind always floats back to your issues at work or your family problem even if your body is already telling you to sleep, maybe it is time for you to start meditating. Pressure is what keeps your mind wandering off instead of getting to rest. Practicing meditation can truly provide you with the solution your body needs. Taking sleeping pills is not a healthy option since it can be dangerous to you if you become addicted to them. Meditation on the other hand will allow you to have a good sleep. Practicing meditation before sleep and also after waking up will allow you to have a relaxed mind. It may be a little difficult when you are still starting but as you get used to it, it will work like magic. It always starts by preparing yourself for your intention. Giving yourself a relaxing bath and making your whole body calm by massaging your arms, hands and all the other parts of your body which you feel stressed and tired. When you finally feel your entire body is comfortable and nothing feels stiff you can sit down on a chair with your back straight. Let your feet touch the floor firmly and then close your eyes taking long and steady breath in and out of the nose. Repeating this three to five times will help clear what is in your mind. When you are freeing your mind from all your worries you can breathe in slowly counting to three and then breath it out counting up to six and do this breathing pattern seven more times. After this, lie on the bed with your stomach touching it with your arms folded and cheeks resting on them. Just focus on the rising and falling of your breathing and allow your mind to dwell on that relaxing moment. Once you have gotten used to this, you can also try just sitting down while you meditate and relax yourself. Doing this daily before sleep and when you wake up will absolutely free your mind from stressful concern. A healthier happy you will come out from it too. Chapter 9: Managing stress the smarter way Synopsis Have you ever seen a successful corporate executive who does not look slick and stress free? Rarely can you tell when they are stressed out and that is because they expertly learned how to successfully manage the level of stress they are in. They are smart enough to know that if they walk around in a disarrayed state and let their subordinates see them that way, these people will also be affected or doubt their leadership capabilities too. You do not need to be a corporate executive to be able to battle stress and appear great in front of people. You can actually find a way to eliminate your worries and stress producing concerns and live a happy life each and every day. You must first understand that there are two types of stress and be able to identify which is which. Eustress also known as positive stress is the type of stress we need for our health. The one we need to stop doing is called episodic acute stress. Being Smarter Stress in general is the reaction of the body by releasing a sudden energy burst which causes hormones to shuffle and this can be draining if it becomes too much. Eustress is giving you a positive effect since it makes you relax and allows you to feel positive such as bungee jumping, going out on your first date with a long time crush or just simply having a quick speedy slide down the ski slope. Anything that can make you feels the rush and makes your adrenaline pump. Episodic acute stress on the other hand is the type that drains your energy with no positivity in it. Dwelling on an unfortunate event of your life or worrying about unpaid bills is one of them. If you are smart enough how to turn all these negatively causing issues into something that will become beneficial to you, you will be free from the stress that eats you up causing you to become unproductive. Once you realize how to determine the type of stress you are in, you can easily find ways to remove or at least minimize the effects it will do for you. But in order for you to do that, you need to have a healthy mind to come up with working ideas. Living a healthy life is the key to this. Eating the right kind of food and doing exercise will allow you to live in this state of health. Remember that the reason why you are in a stressful situation is because you were not able to foresee the events that caused it. If your mind is clear from worries and useless concerns, you will have a backup plan to solve it in case it arises. The smart way to deal with stress is absolutely having a relaxed healthy life. There will be times that you will be affected by it because that is normal, but being resilient is something that you can be. A healthy mind will give you ideas to bounce back and get back on the race again.

Chapter 3: Not All Hours Are Made Equal Chapter 4: Have A Clear Intention Of What You Want To Achieve Chapter 5: Are You Working All The Time You Are Working? Chapter 6: Segregate Time Blocks For Accomplishing Certain Types Of Work Chapter 7: Quality Of Your Work Versus Quantity Of Your Work Chapter 8: How To Wake Up Early And Be More Productive Chapter 9: Buy More Time Through Outsourcing To Others Wrapping Up Using The Internet To Leverage Your Time And Automation Sample Content Preview Chapter 6: Segregate Time Blocks For Accomplishing Certain Types Of Work Synopsis As discussed in the previous chapter, time allocation is very important when it comes to making use of your time wisely. This will help you focus on a certain task in the most effective way possible. To help you achieve that, this chapter will discuss the ways on how to segregate time blocks for accomplishing a certain type of work. What is Time Blocking? Time blocking is an effective technique for making use of time wisely and attaining greater productivity. Learning how to use time blocks will benefit you a lot when it comes to organizing your tasks for the day. Blocking out time for particular activities and tasks enables people to concentrate on just one task at a time, preventing, stress, procrastination and distractions. The time blocking concept will help you determine if your list of things to do is doable or if it is unrealistic. In order to obtain the best results, you have to be honest with your calculation regarding the amount of time required to attain every task. How to Time Block To block time effectively, the following are the things that need to be done: Determine your high priority projects and tasks. – If your job description requires a high level of concentration, time blocking is right for you. To start, identify the tasks that must be completed and prioritize them based on their order of importance and deadline. For instance, if a report must be submitted in a week and you have a meeting tomorrow, give priority to the preparation for the meeting ahead of researching for the report. Block out time for particular projects and tasks. – Break down the things you have to do into chunks that can be successfully completed in just a small time increment. For instance, if you were tasked to design a flier, allocate a separate time block for the completion of every page. To do this, you need to set your goal in finishing the task within the allotted time. You also have to decide on the start and stop times for the specific task or project and stick to your schedule. It is also important to utilize a visual device to block the time – You can use an excel spreadsheet, a calendar, or a piece of paper as your visual aide. Have the time blocks marked in order for you to see the start and finish times easily. If you intend to make use of an Excel spreadsheet, code the time blocks by creating a grid with start and finish times. With the use of dark colors, fill in the tasks with higher priority. On the other hand, if you wish to use a mobile calendar, type in all your tasks for the day and use the repeat feature for the recurring tasks. You can also select an alert option to give you notification of the start and finish times. Schedule your breaks. – Some people believe that taking breaks is not a good idea to achieve greater productivity. This is a myth. In fact, taking a regular break is very favorable on your part because it increases concentration and gives your mind some refreshment. When doing a time block, it is ideal to schedule breaks in between your tasks. For instance, concentrate passionately for 2 hours on a particular task. Then, take a short break and work for another 2.5-hour time block. Limit the tasks that obstruct your time blocking objective. – The first way on how to do this is through eliminating time-consuming and unproductive activities. During the time block allocated to working, refrain from needless internet surfing, TV watching or forum browsing. Dedicate your time and attention to your task with the highest priority. You also need to avoid texting, answering the telephone and checking your email. Concentrate only on the task or project that you blocked off time in order to complete. To avoid any distractions brought by your mobile phone and the PC, let the calls proceed to voice mail, turn it off and sign out of your social media and email account. It is also important to notify people within your online group that you will be unavailable for a while. When working at the comfort of your own home, expound your time blocking technique to your family members, so that they do not interrupt you. In the office, limit interruptions from your co-workers by simply making a suggestion that they join you in your time blocking technique. Look for quiet working locations. – In order for you to escape all the interruptions in the world, it is important to look for the best place to work. This may include a library, a coffee shop or a serene area of the office building. Time blocking is the best strategy for you to use your time wisely. This will not just help you do your tasks successfully, but will give you a chance to achieve greater productivity as well. Chapter 7: Quality Of Your Work Versus Quantity Of Your Work Synopsis How can you say that someone is productive? Is it through the quality or the quantity of his or her work? Actually, this is one of the hardest questions to answer in relation to work because both of them are essential contributing factors to productivity. In this chapter, you will know the real score behind quality vs. quantity. Quality Defined Quality may mean different things to different people. However, in general, this is defined as the degree to which something meets or exceeds the expectations of consumers or superiors. Thus, something is declared of high quality when it is done flawlessly or perfectly. When used in the context of work, quality means having a satisfactory output or result. For instance, you were tasked by your employer to do something, the way how you did it and the approach you used will define its quality. To be more specific, this is prevalent in outsourcing. Quantity Defined According to definition, quantity is the sum, size, or extent of measurable or countable phenomenon, objects or, events, expressed as a numerical value. When used in the context of work, this refers to the number of tasks done or output made in a given period of time. In an outsourcing business, your speed will pave the way for you to produce as many outputs as possible. Now that you already know the difference between quality and quantity, it is about time to get down to the heart of the matter. Quality VS Quantity When it comes to work, several people agree that quality weighs more than quantity. They consider the former as the key for an individual or entity to establish a high reputation in the industry, while the latter is just a means on how to show off what a certain individual or entity can do. In today’s competitive world, clients and customers alike look for the products and services that can give them satisfaction and live up to their expectations. They always search for high quality merchandise. So, no matter how large your output is in number, if it does not meet the standards of your superior or clients, it will still end up in the trashcan. Do you now understand the big difference between them? But wait. Is it possible for you to provide both quantity and quality all at the same time? This is not an easy thing to do because when you focus on one, there is a big tendency for you to lose focus on the other. Well, the solution is to keep both in balance. To achieve this, what you just need to have is presence of mind. In the battle between quality and quantity, the winner is obvious. However, the latter is still an essential contributing factor to productivity. So, learn how to master them both for you to achieve satisfaction in your working performance.

Every day there’s more features being designed. Whether you have the cheapest model or a high end model, digital cameras can do an endless number of things. Let’s look at how to get the most out of your digital camera. Display If you want to line up a good shot, you need to be able to see it. If you have vision problems, look for a digital camera with a larger screen. However, LCD displays can be hard to see in bright lightening so look for the brightest display that fits your budget. You need to also remember that the LCD displays use a lot of battery power. The way to combat this is to buy a camera that has automated power saving options. Situations Your experience will dictate what type of flexibility you want out of a digital camera. Some cameras let you switch options to manual (ie f-stop, focus, etc.), which gives you more flexibility for your photos. Still other cameras are incredibly smart and can calculate everything in a split second so that you can take the best possible photo. So before you buy, think about what it is you want out of your camera and then research each of the cameras on you short list. The size of the camera should be taken into consideration. Choose based on what your needs are. If you want to pack it around all the time, you might look for a small, compact model. If performance is more important to you then you should consider a larger camera. This really is personal preference so decide what it is that’s important to you. A digital camera can use replaceable batteries, disposable batteries, or USB charging. Batteries that are disposable can become very expensive especially if you take a lot of pictures. USB charging is only recommended if you have a small camera with the options you want because then it can use power efficiently. But the minute the camera gets a little bigger, it isn’t very efficient and because you can’t use the camera while it’s charging that can be a real problem. Replaceable batteries are the best choice as they can save you money.

As a matter of fact, there are so many likely errors and things that may miscarry that it's broadly agreed that of the individuals who decide to make cash online, more than 95% will never get anyplace whereas less than 5% will make cash and accomplish some degree of success. Therefore, it's fair to suggest that it's in no way a given that if you decide you wish to take in cash from the internet that you'll do so. Indeed, the bare stats suggest very much the reverse as highlighted above. So, the focus of this book is really firmly fixed on how you move past the fledgling stage of internet marketing without falling foul of the many pitfalls and hurdles that may easily derail your nascent net-based money marketing job.

They learned that almost anything can happen without warning. An earthquake killed about 3,000 people and caused over $400 million in property damages. In 1920, the Gansu earthquake in China took about 200,000 lives. Then in 1948, the region around Ashgabat in the Soviet Union suffered a powerful quake that claimed over two-thirds of that city's population (110,000 people died). About Earthquakes The most powerful earthquake ever recorded happened in 1960 in Chile. Registering 9.5 on the Moment magnitude scale, it created a tsunami that swept the entire Pacific Ocean. In 1972, 90% of the city of Managua, Nicaragua, was destroyed by a midnight earthquake that killed over 10,000 people. Then in 1985, the Great Mexican Earthquake struck, killing as many as 30,000 people, most of whom were never found. In 1989, San Francisco and surrounding areas experienced the "World Series Quake." In 2003, the Bam Citadel, the largest adobe structure in the world and built before 500 B.C. was almost completely destroyed, together with 70% of the city of Bam and 70,000 residents. Most of them happen along what is known as the circum-Pacific seismic belt or the "Pacific Ring of Fire" bounding the Pacific tectonic plate. With high-population cities like Mexico City, Tehran, and Tokyo growing in areas of high risk, it is possible that a future earthquake could take as many as 3 million lives. It's hard to understand why people insist on living in earthquake-prone areas like San Francisco and the mountains of central and South America. But in fact, earthquakes are a common phenomenon, small ones happening somewhere in the world every day. Characterized by shaking and ruptures in the land, earthquakes also cause dangerous avalanches and landslides, fires like the terrible 1906 San Francisco experience, soil liquefaction where buildings literally sink into the earth, and massive tsunamis. Because the damage they do is

Disasters: Why No one’s Really 100% Safe This is common knowledge—that disaster is everywhere. It’s in the streets, it’s inside your campuses, and it can even be found inside your home. The question is not whether we are safe (because no one is really THAT secure anymore) but whether we can do something to lessen the odds of ever becoming a victim. First, what is a disaster, anyway? By definition, a disaster is any catastrophe or tragedy that occurs (can also be identified as a destruction or calamity). That doesn’t sound good at all, does it? We should be alarmed at the mere mention of this term and we have good reasons to be because there are so many kinds of disaster. Name it and it has it. Think of the natural disasters such as earthquakes, hurricanes, flood, tornadoes, tsunamis, cyclones, or even fire and, you wouldn’t want this last one, aggression. Accept the fact that these calamities are in all places. There are areas that are more prone to tornadoes or earthquakes and there are also some that are more exposed to cyclones.
