How valuable are you? I am sure you are immensely valuable. You are of great value not only to yourself, but to your family and friends and people you have yet to meet. It doesn’t matter if you are an internet marketing grandparent like me, or someone just starting out in the online marketing business, you have value. We can all fit together and help each other achieve success.

Recently I became involved with Ultra International. Ultra is an international company that provides solutions for health, home and wealth. Their products are environmentally friendly and chemically free. The containers are all biodegradable too. Not only are our personal “temples” protected and enhanced by these products, but so is our planet.

On November 1st, 2008 Ultra International launched its direct-to-consumer marketing division with the most explosive compensation plan in the industry. A newly developed spa quality line of SAFE and GREEN home care and personal care products called Pure Selects™ make up the product inventory.

Ultra is a 20-year old, rock solid, debt free company with executives on the staff providing experience in operating a highly successful consumer products manufacturing and distribution company and over thirty-five years of formulating in the areas of over-the-counter drugs, medical devices, cosmetics and consumer products. This provides a regulatory and compliance background necessary for the Ultra International’s fast paced environment.

As it says in the introduction to Ultra’s Products, “If we treated our cars like we treat our bodies, how long would they last?” That is a good question to ponder. We do need to give our bodies a fighting chance and join the Wellness Revolution. Ultra provides three products to assist in achieving this goal.

Mind is a shot of Health, Focus and Energy. It is a superdrink that is charged with the strongest natural antioxidants available, enhanced with over 120 plant derived vitamins and minerals and utilizes an enriched patented aloe vera delivery system. Mind has an estimated ORAC Value of 4500+.

Body is a Meal Replacement extremely low in fat, calories and carbs. It contains a high level of protein and nutrients. Each serving of Body delivers over 100 plant derived vitamins and minerals, critical digestive enzymes, essential probiotics and effective appetite suppressant known as Pure South African Hoodia. I can personally add to the above description that Body has helped in ridding me of my knee joint pain, hip and leg pain and lower back pain. I not only have lost a weight, but more exciting I’ve lost pain. This is a great product in this economy. Why spend money eating out, when you can have a delicious Body shake and be healthier?

Soul, is a Superfood symbiotic blend of the most critically essential and extremely beneficial nutritional ingredients known to man. The ingredients in Soul give your body a fighting chance. One teaspoon is equivalent to the daily recommended 10 full servings of the most essential and powerful fruits and vegetables your body needs.

Last, but certainly not least are the Home Care and Personal Care Products. These products are some of the highest quality and safest products in the market today. They are fragrance free, dye free, 100% green (biodegradable within 30 days) and free of harmful chemicals.

You are valuable, your family is valuable and your friends are valuable. We could all achieve better health if we utilized Ultra’s products and joined the Wellness Revolution!

And on another note, once you have achieved better health, you will also have achieved better wealth with Ultra and be able to enjoy the years ahead. To me wealth isn’t worth anything if you haven’t got the health to enjoy it.

Here’s to your health and success!

I apologize for not posting daily and promise to do better. Is it difficult for other people to keep up with their blogging?  Perhaps it because I am an internet marketing grandparent trying to learn all the skills I can and become the best I possibly can at my online business? There just doesn’t seem to be enough hours in a day to get done all I want to do.

The buzz words nowadays seem to be “Social Networking”. There are many venues out there. We have Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, Ning, Sta.rtUp.Biz, Qassia, and LinkedIn just to mention a few.

Truthfully, I find it difficult to keep caught up with them all. Just recently there was a fabulously written article in our local newspaper entitled, “Facebook is ruining my life”. It was written by a talented gentleman. He mentioned that Facebook does a great job at helping long lost friends find each other. However, he just turned 38 and in a 12 hour period he had received 9 pokes, was tagged in 5 photos, hit with 2 snowflakes and had a virtual” beer with one of his college friends.  He went on to say that he doesn’t have time to keep up with all of this.  After all, he has his career, mortgage to pay and family to look after!

This article set my brain in gear.  I personally use Social Networking in my online network marketing business.  I will confess that I too have located some long lost friends from years gone by on Facebook.  I have noticed that a lot of people are baring their souls, sharing their spouse’s faults and other personal aspects of their lives.  I don’t think my husband would have wanted me to share his faults with the entire internet world!  What do you think?

Another thing came to mind.  What does this communicating online do to our personal communication skills?  I mean our “reach out and touch someone” skills.  I used to think that emails had replaced the sharing of  our heartfelt emotions with each other either on the phone, or in person.  I recently had a friend tell me that he doesn’t use email.  He said to me, “An email doesn’t tell me how Judy is really feeling.  I need to call her and talk to her in person.”

I do think that Social Networks, such a Twitter, provide a  great service to the business community providing information on software, programs,networking tips, upcoming meetings and business solutions.

We can read people’s feelings on a Social Network page, but do we really know their innermost feelings?  I don’t understand people communicating with each other while sitting in the same room on a Social Network, but being unable to communicate personally with each other.  I apologize if you thing I am wrong in thinking this way.  These thoughts are only my feelings and opinions.

I am interested in your thoughts on this subject.  Please take a minute and leave a comment.  How do you feel about a child being on MySpace communicating his/her feelings, but unable to communicate verbally in person with their friends, siblings, parents. etc.?

In summing it up, I think that there is a place in our life for Social Networking, but just like everything else in our lives, we need to stay balanced.  We need to exercise ALL of our skills!

Until next time,

Judy Conway

We can read people’s thoughts, but do we really have a true reading on their innermost feelings? I find it difficult to hear about people being in the same room and communicating on with each other on Facebook, but they can’t communicate verbally to each other.

I do think that, for example Twitter and other business related social networks are providing a great service in sharing programs, newest software, upcoming meetings, and business solutions.

I am interested in everyone’s input on their feelings on Social Networking. Please take a moment and comment. How do you feel about a child involved on Facebook or MySpace and sharing their thoughts, but being unable to communicate in person with either their parents, siblings or others?

In summing it all up. Social Networking is like anything else. We need to stay balanced and remember our other skills!

Until next time,

Here we are again….Halloween is upon us.

There are a lot of differences of opinion regarding this subject. This forced me to do a lot of research. You see I am not the kind of person who just accepts what I am told without finding out if and why I should!

 

Children can be very cruel and it was painful to watch last year as a child was condemning another child saying that he was a devil worshipper and whoever had ever told him that Halloween was okay was lying to him. How is that for a silent slap in the face of his parents? (who by the way are Christians) It broke my heart as this little guy who was so excited about being the Phantom of the Opera doesn’t have a malicious, evil bone in his body.

 

The accusing child could not tell you exactly why Halloween was evil (other than the fact that he had been told that as a Christian he should have nothing to do with it) and I could see that he really wanted to put on a costume, grab a pillowcase and take take off down the trail of trick or treating.

 

We should be prepared to tell people WHY we believe the way we do and be able to back it up with information. Let our children know the full story. If they just think they can’t participate in Halloween because they have been told that Christians don’t do this, in my opinion, can cause resentment and rebellion.

 

So what do you think…..is Halloween really evil? Perhaps the following information will shed a new light on your thoughts. I would like to share some information I found with you. Make your own decision on whether or not Halloween is truly evil. I learned a lot of things I didn’t previously know.

 

Please check out the following article on “The History of Halloween” written by Pastor Dennis Rupert of New Life Community Church of Stafford. He obviously has done his homework and a huge amount of research. I think he has done a great job on presenting this information. If you will note, he is diligent to keep his information updated.

 

Please click on this link:

It is a little lengthy but well worth your time. At the bottom of Part 1 you will find a link for Part 2. Be sure to read to the end of Part 2. Our children need to know why they believe something and not just be parroting their parents or others. And not just when it comes to Halloween.

 

We as Christians can be visible with our children on Halloween and share the love of Christ with our neighbors. We should not hide our light under a basket or behind closed doors. If we don’t share the love of Christ with non-believers, how will they ever know the love of Christ?

 

I have my treats ready to hand out. I enjoy seeing the kids dressed up at my door, especially the little ones. Are they evil? Is it their intent to go out and cause havoc and damage? I don’t think so. I still agree that parents need to check all of the loot when it arrives home. There are some sick people out there desiring to harm our children. They are evil, but I honestly don’t believe Halloween is.

 

Hope you get some boo….licious treats!!
