Hello <<FIRSTNAME>>, and a warm welcome to 'Balance in Life' your free monthly newsletter

Hi, I'm Martin, and I'm very happy to be sharing a little more about life in this free monthly newsletter.

And a Happy New Year to you all. May it be a time for putting your best foot forward to achieving all you desire in 2010.

Life is very precious as we all know. And it is a noble aim to get the most out of it. Each month you will find new content here - not seen elsewhere first. Read and think and enjoy!

There will be a mixture of material to get our teeth into. To help move our lives along if we so wish. To think about life if that is what we want to do. Or to just ponder and wonder about life's rich tapestry, and what it has to offer us.

A happy New Year to you and your family! May you have success and happiness beyond your expectations in 2010.

If you have a passion for something - whatever it is - then make 2010 a brilliant year by telling other like-minded people about it, and your very own website would be a great place to start. I know YOU can do it - if you just start . . .

You could start your new year on a high note - follow your own dream by finding out more here - click on the image - you have nothing too lose and so much to gain (A SBI! website - now just $29.99 a month).

On a Lighter Note

Following on from the Lighter Note page on the website I thought I would provide just a few more quotes here each month.

Fear won't always save you but it will take some of the pressures off your luck. Tobias Wolff

A fool and his words are soon parted, for so should the proverb run. William Shenstone

Man in general, if reduced to himself, is too wicked to be free. Joseph de Maistre

Talent without genius comes to little. Genius without talent is nothing. Paul Valery

Prose 'n Poetry Corner

Each month I will look through my notebooks and find a little bit of prose 'n poetry. Often written in a few minutes, so please don't expect Wordsworth, but hopefully these entries will provide a little interlude in your day. A chance to think and ponder, to daydream or to visualize, to perhaps see things in a different light.

Please see what you think and let me know if it is useful or not - highlights some valuable points but in a lighter vein . . .

In life do we use all of our hardware
or do we at deeds and actions just stare
step back a moment and become more aware
do not look back on missed opportunities with such a glare.

Do we have too much on our plate
get stressed and end up in a state
less than good for something or is it nothing
we need to learn that saying no will have no real sting.

Life is full of blue and grey
reds, yellow, greens, all here to stay
look at nature and they are all there
each color of the rainbow, let us enjoy being here.

To what am I beholding
I do not need any scalding
to really get me going
life to me can be so comforting.

There is so much noise
gets in my mind and annoys
me, for what I wish for is peace and quiet
hush, silence, joy, happiness and some contentment.

The sun does shine
sitting on the sky line
shines on us one and all
without which humanity would surely fall.

Main Article

Each month there will be an article, with fresh content, that goes into a subject in a little more detail. Perhaps give a different stance. Perhaps provide food for thought. Perhaps . . .

This month a topical theme.

Be successful in 2010

Success - be flexible, but be determined and persevere.

If you want to achieve anything you need to be able to adapt to circumstances. You need to work hard. You need to be determined. You will need to persist with your actions. You will need to persevere, perhaps past what you would have done before.

You want to be seen as an achiever, someone who starts something and carries it through to a conclusion, the finish.

You want to be seen as someone who can be given responsibility and will put it off.

You want to be someone who can be trusted and respected. For what they do and how they inspire others to excel too.

You can be that person.

Be flexible. Be yourself.

Know that success does not grow on trees. Know that you have to work for it. But know that it can be yours.

You have to be persistent. You have to stay on course. You need to know what you are going for.

And do not quit.

Get serious. Half heartedness will not cut it. That will rarely do. Not if you really do want to get on.

Know you can achieve. You can make your mark.

Contribute to the success of your own life.

Hope you enjoyed it and found it beneficial. Be inspired to become more in 2010. Martin

News Flash - Write a book in 14 days - find out how here

A man I respect a great deal has just released the most incredible, step-by-step tool I have ever seen on the subject of writing your own book... and getting it done and published while you're still *young enough* to enjoy it!

Steve Manning, a master writer and journalist, has authored what I believe will totally revolutionize the publishing world.

This master writer holds your hand through the entire writing and publishing process!

He has sold literally hundreds of thousands of books and he's arguably the most prolific magazine writer on the continent as well. And when it comes to writing a book,he lays everything out for you.

He leaves nothing to chance... no stone unturned as he takes you step-by-step through the process of:

-Develop "technologies" no one else on the planet has that make your book better than anything on the market

-Unleash the power of your own creativity so you write better than you ever thought possible

-The fastest method of researching on the planet--it has nothing to do with the Internet. One journalist in southern Ontario stated this single strategy was so effective, it was scary!

-S.N.A.P. editing--this single strategy caused a former president of a national editor's association to declare that we had to get this information out to anyone and everyone who was even thinking of writing a book!

-The simple technique that will create any mood imaginable in just seconds. Professional writers struggle for years to learn how to do this. You'll be able to do this in just seconds.

-Step by step instructions for copyright registration. Even the forms are included!

-How to turn your book into a client magnet so it becomes the source of an unending stream of prospective customers.

-How to know exactly when you'll be finished writing your book no matter how much, or how little you want to write each day.

-How to blue-print your book in just hours so you instantly know exactly what will be in your book and where it will be. You will never write even one sentence that isn't used in your book.

Steve is the kind of person who raises his prices frequently because of demand.... but I practically begged him to keep the price down long enough to let me send you this email so you can check it out.

If you have the least bit of interest in writing your own, highly profitable book and all the prestige and accomplishment that goes with being a 'best selling' author... you owe it to yourself to get more FREE information.

I don't want you to miss out on this spectacular opportunity to not only create your own book as quickly as 14 days from now... but to take advantage of the tremendous price savings as well.

If you get this new information kit, 14 days from today you can brag to your friends that you wrote one of your own---and show them the money you made, too! For heaven's sake, AT LEAST go look at the FREE details! Just Click Here

P.P.S. - Remember, this package has unbelievable information and bonuses that will simply knock your socks off.... don't delay in taking a closer look!

Until the next edition of 'Balance in Life'

So, that is all for this month - doesn't time fly! Again it has been a real pleasure spending time with you. I look forward to meeting up with you next month, at the beginning of January 2010!

Wow a new year is upon us. A time to both reflect on 2009 and a chance to look forward to another year - 2010.

Many thanks to all of you who have been reading these ezines since number one came out a year ago now. And for your good wishes, comments and suggestions.

In the meantime make the most of your life. Enjoy your days. And if you want to contact me about anything pertaining to self esteem and life then you know where to do so.

May I just wish you all every success and hope that you find enjoyment, satisfaction and fulfillment in your life in the coming years.
