Motivational Tip #58 – Watch Movies that Inspire You
In addition to reading blogs and books, watching movies can also prove to be inspirational. If you’re at the end of your wire and can’t do anything else, step back, take the night off, and watch a good movie. Even if the movie has nothing to do with your own...
Motivational Tip #57 – Read Books that Motivate You
One good way to get motivated is to read books that will leave you inspired and ready to leap back into your work. For some people, novels do the trick. Reading a novel allows them to pretend to be a hero or an underdog in some alternative world; and imagine how they...
Nicole Dean’s Income CPR Review
If you have a business and you are struggling, this might be just what you need. Maybe you have a product and you need business coaching for your internet business, but cannot afford the cost of 1:1 coaching. Or maybe you are just stuck and can’t get the...
Motivational Tip #30 – Create a Personal Slogan
My experience is that sometimes we can get so lost in the details of what we are trying to accomplish, we forget why we are doing it in the first place. Yet, the reason for moving forward is usually our best motivational tool. Now, this might sound silly, but...
Motivational Tip #56 – Read Motivational Blogs
As I’ve mentioned earlier, reading other people’s stories and hearing about how they’ve motivated themselves, how they’ve overcome challenges, and how they have experienced successes can be highly motivating. For this reason, it’s a good idea to keep an eye on other...
Niche Duel Update #6 – Status and Plans
Many of you know by now that I am combining my evaluation of SENuke X with my desire to get back into the Niche Site Duel. Of course, this is a perfect match, since you will recall that my “spin” on the niche site duel was to participate using outsourcing and...
SENuke X Training Review
This weekend, I announced that I was taking SENuke X for a spin. As a new user of SENuke X, my first task was to log in to the membership site and see what was available. It is a standard-looking site run by amember on the back end. It is well-implemented (although...
Motivational Tip #29 – Let Yourself Day Dream A Little
Everyone knows how important goals are in business (and in life). Day dreaming can go a long way in helping you to stay motivated. It can help you to visualize how you will feel and how your life will be tangibly different when you finally accomplish a goal. And from...
Motivational Tip #55 – Prepare for Each Day
If you’re like most people, you don’t make a conscious effort to prepare for each day. You grudgingly roll out of bed, shower, eat breakfast, and then head to work. All of your actions are automatic—and come naturally after years of repetition. You don’t even have to...
SENuke X Review And Case Study Plan
Many of you know that I was in Asia this week on business travel. Of course, this was the week of the big SENuke re-launch (now improved and called SENuke X). After many years of wondering about SENuke, I finally decided to take the plunge and subscribed to SENuke X...
Motivational Tip #54 – Take Steps to Become Flexible (or Inflexible)
As with most things in life, flexibility is a continuum. On one side, there are people who tend to be rigid and unchanging, regardless of the circumstances; and, on the other side, there are people who are willing to jettison any plan or project as soon as news of a...
Motivational Tip #53 – Set Deadlines
Setting deadlines is an important part of accomplishing your goals. Without deadlines, you cannot know if you are making progress. And without deadlines, you cannot see what parts of your plan you are accomplishing; and what parts of your plan either may not work or...
New server for MasonWorld.com
I am moving MasonWorld.com today to a dedicated VPS server (none of my other sites will be on this new server) to improve performance. You may see some down-time today as DNS propagates. I am also switching my theme to the Thesis framework, so look out for falling...
Motivational Tip #52 – Make Excuses to Win
Often, when we know we won’t accomplish something, we give ourselves excuses for losing. We tell ourselves that it doesn’t matter if we don’t lose the weight now. We can lose it next year. Or it doesn’t matter if we don’t get the promotion. We’ll figure out some other...
Motivational Tip #51 – Just Work
One of the best ways to accomplish goals is to sit down, make a short plan, and then begin working immediately. Don’t give yourself time to doubt your plan, to meander about other options, or to debate whether or not your approach is correct. Instead, begin work...

Motivational Tip #50 – Unify Your Goals
Like most people, you have many goals. Some of them relate to work. Others relate to your spouse and children. And others might relate to physical fitness, hobbies, or goals you have outside of work. Whatever your goals may be, it is useful and important to unify them...
Motivational Tip #49 – Think About Your Strengths
Self-confidence is an important part of motivation. When you feel confident about your skills and abilities, you also feel confident that you can carry out the task at hand with some degree of success. To the contrary, when you lack confidence, it almost always...
