Monday’s Motivational Moment: Be Thankful!
Greetings Blog Family,
There is no video to this post…well, actually there is. But, I don’t want to post it on the site. It is a bit choppy, and frankly bad production. It was an error on my part with the filming. It is not the quality of material you deserve on this site, so it is not being publsihed here. If you just cannot go without a video, it is posted on Viddler and you can watch it there. But, I think you deserve better than that. View the Be Thankful video here and befriend us while you are there. Remember that I told you it was choppy. The article is provide below.

Today, I want to talk about being thankful.
Life can be so consuming and filled with challenge that we forget to be appreciative of all that we do have. It is easy to get caught up in the pursuits of goals, dreams and Internet Marketing, but remember to honor the place you are, the place you stand.
You must cherish the opportunity, appreciate your blog family, and honor the moment.
1) Cherish this Opportunity - Realize there has been no opportunities like this ever in history. The Internet is less than 20 years old. The dreams we have as Internet Marketers are special. This is nothing to take lightly. Be thankful for this opportunity.
2) Appreciate your Blog Family – You don’t even have a blog without your visitors, considering your blog is for and about the community. They help make you. They are your supporters. Likewise, you have an offline suuport group as well…and they should be appreciated. I know my family has to deal with my Internet Addiction. Be thankful for their suuport.
3) Honor the Moment - Blog Family, we are livinging in a very special time, a one of a kind moment in the history of the word. Do your best to seize this moment, but don’t forget how special it is. Be thankful for this moment.
Take some time to appreciate all that you do have. We live in a special time, experiencing it with some special people, let’s honor the moment and be thankful for our opportunities.
Remember, thought is possibility….First in the Mind, then in Reality!

Another Day In Paradise, thats what I always say. No matter what, get out there and live your dream!
“I know my family has to deal with my Internet Addiction.” – TOO TRUE! I do not give my fiancee enough credit for putting up with me and my online endeavours.
Thanks for the reminder!
Oh, and talking of appreciation….is that a big headed appreciation banner I see up there? I think it is

this is very true. It’s easy to forget that the Internet hasn’t been around all that long. I can still remember a time when I didn’t have access to the Internet, didn’t have e-mail, or instant messaging, or many of the other related services that I now usually take for granted. The Internet really has made a lot of things possible.

@ Neal – It seems you have the idea with the “another day in paradise” comment. That is what it is all about. We definitely are living the dream (if you actually make money) or have the opportunity to do so. And be sure to show that little lady of yours some appreciation. We don’t think about how our constant computer stalking effects them.
And yes, that is some Big Head love in the banners. LOL!
@ Kouji – I am still amazed by the Internet. I still vividly remember when it really started entering my life…my freshman year in college. I was blown away by the Internet, but do regret I didn’t start pursuing it as I am now. All these years later, the opportunity is still wide open and now I am after it.
Sounds like you appreciate the magic of the Internet and the opportunities it brings.
Thanks for stopping by and I look forward to networking and building with you.
