The Lost Art of Homesteading

The lost art of homesteading. We get credit on our taxes for having a good share of land as a homestead exemption. You can also get credit for conservation if you have over 12 acres.

When I was younger we homesteaded. We lived on the land, 40 acres and had to clear 5 acres and plant a crop, which we did we planted oats.

I remember picking up little branches and putting them into a pile. We would save our dimes and nickels for the once a month trip to town. We kept our money in an old paint tin that used to house water colors. I remember at least 3 buggies full of food going back to the cabin.

We ended up putting a small cabin above the clearing, it had to be removed as people were putting out their cigarettes inside.  It was nice to have a shelter when we took people to visit.

The one we lived in was further down the mountain and we had no indoor plumbing and the toilet was housed in the back constructed of four doors. Hence the name, no one really knew what you were talking about when you said the four doors.

Dad had to go look for our dog one night, she had so many snowballs stuck to her that she was weighed down.

We had a little mailbox that the neighbor would leave comic books in for us. That was a real treat that we looked forward to.

I told Mom that I remember the awful bath days and I was the third one in the tub, it is funny how you remember smells from the past. She said I was the last one to use the water. We had water brought up in 5 gallon cans like the army used.

I think I only missed one day of school and Mom had gotten the jeep stuck. We returned to the mountain often to pick blueberries.

You Do Not Have To Be A Monk To Do This!

You do not have to be a monk to do this! The value of meditating has been known for a very long time.
Set aside a short amount of time to meditate.

There are many forms of meditation and they are all beneficial to you. 
Do you want to be successful? 
Do you want better health? 
Do you want to reduce stress in your life?

All these benefits and more come with a special time away from the rigors of your work day.
Find a place away from all distractions and a comfortable chair. If you use meditation CD's then it is a good idea to have headphones. Concentrate on the program and not what you are going to make for supper. This will keep you calm and relaxed and able to cope with your everyday life.



If you are just using a place and time to concentrate on a mantra, use one that is personal to yourself. Repeat it quietly, loudly, as you feel it will help you. The last moments of your session should be in quiet. After that take time to reflect and rise slowly.

Achieve more in the concentration that will inspire you. This will release the stress and allow your brain to think clearer. I feel better if I take time to meditate during the day and it makes life seem on an even keel. If you have not tried it, give it a chance.

This was shared with me and you are welcome to use it yourself. A short session of Fifteen minutes.

Courtesy Builds Your Business Successfully

When you have started building your list then stay in touch and treat everyone with respect. Courtesy builds your business successfully.

This will pay off in the long run because you will have secured a new customer for a long time. If they have a complaint and you call to work it out then they will know you care.
 
Make sure you over deliver! If you have promised an e-book then follow through and make sure it is delivered as soon as possible. Send a bonus that will compliment the product. Impress them with your high standards.
When you are on a business trip you take the time to tip the people that are waiting on you. They will remember to take good care of you! Good service needs your priority to have the service continue. Some people are depending on your tips to provide for their family.


People will respond to good courtesy. Remember to treat people the same way you would like to be treated. If you can do it in a more personal way this is exemplary. Impress them with your good sense of business. We see that our business will grow with the right attitude.

Mentoring What Qualities Are You Looking For?

What is on the top of the list for you when you are looking for a mentor? Patience, guidance, someone that really wants you to improve in your goals working online.
 
Joining a mentoring program is another tool that will help you learn the skills needed.

I know the first mentor I had was a very skilled marketer not necessarily the most patient but he taught me a lot. He always told me when you start working with someone new "pick their brain" everyone knows something that you do not and you can learn from what they know.
 
This is so true I still find out shortcuts by listening to others. I also share what I have found to work well for me in my marketing.
 
Patience goes a long way. When you help others it is a form of mentoring, guidance to help them be confident in their selves. They can pass on what they have learned from you to others they work with.


If you are not happy with one form of mentoring, then try another. Everyone learns in different ways, if the programs with videos works then stick with it. If webinars are a better fit for you then listen and take notes. I enjoy the programs that allow questions at the end, to clarify what was discussed.

Find a mentor that will take the time to understand what you need. Follow through on the training so you will learn the skills in a shorter amount of time.
