Making A Difference Newsletter

Welcome to the latest edition of "Making A Difference"! Here's another great issue for you. So, grab yourself a cool drink, get comfy, and take a look at this month's edition with all the great stuff you've become accustomed to.

This month, I'd like to share with you some of the more noteworthy changes that I see occurring on the Internet and World Wide Web and what it means to those of us who are trying to use this incredible medium to make a difference.

As always, I'm trying to give you what you want, so if you have a specific need, don't hesitate to let me know about it. I may just be able to provide some assistance. That's what I enjoy doing. So, speak up.

In the last issue, I shared with you my childhood dream of being able to live the life of a rich man (like billionaire-status) and to use my wealth to help change lives for the better - but how, unfortunately, my soul had a different plan for me and I never became a billionaire like John Beresford Tipton on that old TV show.

So, I'm determined to do the next best thing, which is to use what I have and share with you everything I can to help you achieve the life of your dreams. I've been insanely busy trying to keep up with all the unbelievably rapid changes that are taking place in the Internet world and have a number of things that I can share with you right now (much more is on the drawing board or in various stages of development).

Here's a quick re-cap of everything that's been going on recently and what it can mean for you:

	There has been a virtual explosion in the Private Label Rights market which can allow you to publish articles and create your own quality products of all kinds including e-books, audios, videos and more in a mere fraction of the time it would normally take.

	There has been another explosion in the "Making money with Google Adsense" market that has finally provided those who are vehemently opposed to "selling" a way to passively generate a nice income just by allowing a few Google ads to appear on your content-rich web sites.

	There has been a huge increase in the number of "giveaway" events where you can pick up some excellent products for free that would normally cost you anywhere from $27 to $500 or more if you purchased them through normal channels. I'm staying on top of this development and will post the best offers on a special web page I've put up. Check it often. Bookmark the link, because it doesn't appear on the navigation links for the site. I'm keeping it secret for my readers right now because I'm adding a lot of my own specials. http://www.differencemaking.com/MADQSpec.html

	There is a rapidly expanding amount of work being published about the laws of "reality", discussing the latest findings in Quantum Physics and presenting ideas about just what it can mean to you from a "taking control of your life" perspective. I'll keep you informed. If you want to receive early notice, fill out the tiny form at the bottom of the MADQSpec page listed above.

	Coupled with this is the growing demand for personal development, self-empowerment and spiritual enlightenment information that is spurning all kinds of new products and opportunities for you.

	Saving the best for last - I am getting ready to launch a new joint venture with one of the biggest names in the business to market a brand new monster product that I'm putting the finishing touches on. And, here's the nugget, I'm offering you a chance to join me if you are interested. That's right, I will allow a limited number of my loyal readers to become JV partners with me on this launch so that you will have a chance to gain new customers of your own and to add tons of new subscribers to your list. Send me an email at lconjar@conjar.com if you're interested. Make sure you put "JV interest" in the subject box of the email so I don't misfile it by accident and cause you to miss out.

Unfortunately, as there always is when new discoveries are made, there is a lot of worthless garbage being published on each of the topics above that can cost you money, cause frustration and, even worse, send you scurrying off in the wrong direction where you can waste both time and money.

But, the good news is that, as long as you're on my mailing list, you're going to get the real scoop on all of these trends and more. I won't let you get taken by the "pretend" or "wannabe" experts. I've got some brand-new stuff ready for you that I think you'll love and a number of surprises coming very soon that may have you dancing in the streets. So, get on my list if you're not already. I'll even give you a free copy of one of my latest e-books if you sign up right away. This is a limited time offer. Click on the link below now to make sure you don't miss out:

Of all communications media, television is by far the most powerful when it comes to influencing the minds of the average man, woman or child. Because it incorporates methods which can influence the mind on multiple levels, and involves multiple senses in its delivery, television can have a profound effect on the way people perceive themselves and the world around them.

Advertisers know this well, which is why they are willing to spend outrageous amounts of money on presenting their products and/or services to the people through this medium. Thirty or sixty second commercials can cost thousands, tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of dollars to be presented a single time if shown during prime time or during programs or special events that guarantee millions of viewers (and thus, millions of potential customers).

Why would any company be willing to spend that kind of money for such a short period of exposure? Because that commercial could bring them millions of dollars in sales revenues. When you add in the additional cost of producing the commercial, you can really begin to appreciate how powerful this medium is. Companies would not stay in business long if the money they spent on advertising did not prove to be a profitable investment.

The television networks also know this very well, which is why they can charge so much to the advertisers for delivering the message to the viewer/consumer. It is also why there is so much spent on developing programming that will attract viewers and keep them coming back. If they cannot hold their audience, they will not be able to charge those astronomical fees for advertising. And so, the competition heats up as the networks vie for audience share - each trying to out-do the others - in order to hold the attention span of the people who are watching.

Unfortunately, in their quest for greater market share, most networks seem willing to go to any length to grab, and hold, the viewer's attention. Also unfortunately, one of the ways to get the viewer's attention is to use "shock value" and this seems to be the most popular method television executives have chosen to pursue.

That is why the network's "News" shows have evolved into the "Bad News" shows. Almost every single "newscast" begins with headline segments consisting of the day's tragedies. A murder occurred here, a robbery there, a plane crash over there.

In a typical 30 minute news broadcast, the viewer will see about 28 minutes of crime, catastrophe, tragedy, etc. (and commercials) and about 2 minutes of "happy" news - usually at the very end of the show. It is also why so many "talk" shows have sprung up which are really nothing more than "tabloid" journalism at its most offensive. It seems that the feeling among most television executives is that, if there is not enough "bad news" to report, let's "make some up" or let's find some people who are willing to say or do anything, even humiliate themselves (for a few minutes of fame or a few dollars), in order to keep the shock value up.

In other areas of programming, far too often, the same mindset seems to be at work. Daytime TV is dominated by "soap operas" which present characters and storylines that are sure to shock. Prime time is filled with violence, sex and topics that show the worst in people. Even the so-called "Reality" TV shows are filled with examples of the worst kind of human behavior.

Is it any wonder that people who watch a good deal of television (and most do - usually around 4 to 8 hours a day), develop a distorted view of reality? The hardest hit are the elderly and handicapped (or "physically challenged", to be politically correct). Television is their greatest means of contact with the world. Next are the children, who are more open to suggestion.

But don't think for a minute that "normal", healthy, mobile adults escape the effects of all of this negative programming. Why do you suppose that there are so many stories of basically good people who suddenly "snap" and do the most outrageous or hideous things? After being bombarded with so much negativity, it could almost seem to be "normal" behavior. After all, you see it on television all the time.

I don't mean to present a total indictment against TV. There is some very good, uplifting programming available. There's just not enough of it. And that's a shame, because television can be used to present the most powerful ideas, the most wonderful experiences and the most incredible opportunities for personal growth imaginable.

Fantastic concerts, uplifting stories of the human spirit, fabulous training and education - all of this and more can be delivered through the medium of television. Lives can be radically altered in positive ways by delivering material through this medium. The viewer can be given the opportunity to literally change their life simply by using the information that can be presented in uplifting, entertaining and FUN ways.

Television can give us the opportunity to gain an education equivalent to an advanced college degree program. It can give us the inspiration and motivation to create a successful business or to make changes that will help us to "live a life that matters". It can stimulate the creative fire in us and cause us to develop incredible works of art, literature or music. It can provide a nurturing, supportive environment that promotes personal growth of all kinds. It can do all this and more.

Imagine a day when a lack of money no longer prevents anyone from obtaining a first class education. Imagine a day when people are encouraged to develop themselves to their fullest potential. Imagine a day when the opportunity to establish and build a successful business, which can provide the financial freedom necessary to live your life as you so desire, is available to anyone who is willing to put forth the effort.

That day is coming - and sooner than you think. There was a great experiment on satellite TV when it first became available. One of the new stations available was totally devoted to presenting positive, uplifting programming. Unfortunately, the world was not ready for it yet and it failed. But, once again, the Internet and World Wide Web are coming to the rescue and the dream is still alive. I've decided to get involved because I feel it is such an incredible opportunity for people to learn and change their lives for the better. Take a look by following the link below and see what I mean. You may just decide it's something that turns you on, too.

Giving Positive Feedback Can Motivate & Build Confidence In Others

One mild form of flattering others that can pay big dividends is to give them positive feedback about their statements, actions, and results. Positive feedback might also be considered a confirming behavior because it adds to the self-worth of others.

The ability and willingness to give positive feedback contributes to personal magnetism because people are drawn closer to those people who deliver such feedback. Here are three suggestions for giving positive feedback:

1. Make the feedback specific. Pinpoint what the person did right by saying something on this order: "Your suggestion for using smaller boxes for mailing our products resulted in a $90,000 savings the first year." Specific feedback is more motivational than a general statement such as "Thanks for the great suggestion."

2. Provide some of your feedback in public. The most widely accepted adage in human relations is "Criticize in private, praise in public."

3. Provide the feedback close in time to the good deed. A basic principle of positive reinforcement is that the reward should follow close in time to the behavior that merited the reward. Recognizing that you might have a busy, cramped schedule yourself, set a realistic goal of providing positive feedback (even a one-minute message) within five working days of the good deed you want to recognize.

There is a lot of good that can come from giving positive feedback. Low self-esteem is the biggest reason why so many people never come close to reaching their potential. By giving credit where it is deserved and by encouraging people to grow, you truly can "make a difference".
