<p>When teaching us about building our network marketing business, Jim Rohn tells his story.  He said he was a skilled farmer first before he decided to make his fortune.</p>
<p>He knew he was good at farming but it didn&#8217;t pay much.  I am a mother and know I&#8217;m a good one, and that doesn&#8217;t pay much either (my husband jokes saying, &#8220;I&#8217;ve paid you well.&#8221; &#8211; and he has, but it&#8217;s not a fortune!)</p>
<p>I&#8217;m ready to make my fortune.</p>
<p>When I hit <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T346qSk5t3c&amp;list=HL1321388844&amp;feature=mh_lolz" target="_blank" onclick="urchinTracker('/outgoing/www.youtube.com/watch?v=T346qSk5t3c_amp_list=HL1321388844_amp_feature=mh_lolz&amp;referer=');">my speed bump of MS</a>, I knew I had to look past my plans of r<a href="http://lindagraceonline.com/work-make-money-original-plan-and-evolution/" target="_blank">eturning to work</a> after the kids were in school.   After three years of studying and searching online, I&#8217;ve found a way to make my fortune!</p>

<p>&#8220;Character isn&#8217;t something you were born with and can&#8217;t change, like your fingerprints. It&#8217;s something you weren&#8217;t born with and must take responsibility for forming.&#8221;<br />
<a href="http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/quotes/j/jimrohn147484.html" onclick="urchinTracker('/outgoing/www.brainyquote.com/quotes/quotes/j/jimrohn147484.html?referer=');">Jim Rohn</a></p>
<p><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/qYLrc9hy0t0?rel=0" frameborder="0" width="560" height="315"></iframe></p>
<p>Jim gave us a ton of information in this talk!  I&#8217;ve taken notes as I listened and the following are Jim&#8217;s words:<img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-2899" title="Jim Rohn speaking" src="http://lindagraceonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Jim-Rohn-speaking-100x100.jpg" alt="" width="100" height="100" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&#8220;Personal philosophy</p>
<p>&#8220;Profits are better than wages.  Wages make you a living and that&#8217;s fine.  Profits make you a fortune which is super fine.</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m working full time on my job but part time on my fortune.</p>
<p>&#8220;I found a way to make my fortune.</p>
<p>&#8220;Right now I&#8217;m working full time on my job, part-time on my fortune.</p>
<p>&#8220;If you&#8217;ll really concentrate on the 10,12,15 hours a week it won&#8217;t be long if you really do it right and learn some of the skills I&#8217;m going to teach you.</p>
<p>&#8220;One of the greatest recruiting tool is working part time.  Working part time gives you a classic invitation for someone to listen to what is changing your life.</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s not the blowing of the wind that determines your fortune, it&#8217;s the set of the sail.</p>
<p>&#8220;Opportunity mixed with difficulty.</p>
<p>&#8220;For things to change, you have to change. Don&#8217;t wish it was easier, wish you were better. Don&#8217;t wish for less problems, wish for more skills. Don&#8217;t wish for less challenge, wish for more wisdom.  Accept the challenge, develop wisdom to overcome the challenge.  You can do the most remarkable things no matter what happens.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Discovery of unique product that you can believe in.</p>
<p>&#8220;Law of averages</p>
<p>&#8220;If you do something often enough a ratio will appear.</p>
<p>&#8220;If you talk to 10 people and 1 says yes, the ratio has begun 1 out of 10. Talk to 10 and get one.</p>
<p>&#8220;Once it starts it tends to continue if you talk to 10 and you get one chances are if you talk to 10 more you&#8217;ll get another one, talk to 10 more and you&#8217;ll get another one.</p>
<p>&#8220;Now the Competition Begins! You can beat anyone!  If you compete with a sales person who can get 9 out of ten, you can still beat them!  If you can get 9 out of ten and I can get 1 out of 10 I can beat you!  If you talk to 10 and get nine.  I&#8217;ll talk to 100 and get 10. I&#8217;ll beat you.</p>
<p>&#8220;When I&#8217;m new I make up in numbers what I lack in skill.</p>
<p>&#8220;Law of averages can be increased. If you repeat over and over, you get better and better, and we all can get better!</p>
<p>&#8220;We don&#8217;t have to bat 1000 to make money.  Three out of 10 is sufficient to make you rich beyond imagination. The way Jim went after his friends and family, I have started a new business and I&#8217;m getting about 3 out of 10 to join. I don&#8217;t care if you don’t want to join, just come to the meeting and be one of the seven.</p>
<p>&#8220;Story of the sower</p>
<p>Ambitious</p>
<p>Had excellent seed (product)</p>
<p>First part of the seed fell by the wayside and the Birds got them. The birds are going to get some.</p>
<p>&#8220;Don&#8217;t chase the birds you leave the field if you do. Which will distract from your future, not add. Isn&#8217;t that interesting?</p>
<p>&#8220;Sower kept on sowing because he knew that he could sow more than the birds can get.</p>
<p>&#8220;There are only 10 miserable people in the whole world that are miserable people.</p>
<p>&#8220;Now the seed falls on rocky ground where the soil is shallow starts to grow then withers and dies.</p>
<p>&#8220;Hot weather gets him.  Isn&#8217;t that interesting.  Some don&#8217;t stay.  Cooperate with the way things are set up.</p>
<p>&#8220;Discipline your disappointment.  You didn’t set up the set up and some are not going to stay</p>
<p>&#8220;Sometimes the seed falls on thorny ground.  As the seed grows the thorns choke it to death.</p>
<p>&#8220;The thorns are going to get some.  And that&#8217;s not of your making.</p>
<p>&#8220;Don&#8217;t sign up for this &#8216;why is this class&#8217;. It is the way it is!</p>
<p>&#8220;Sower keeps sowing the seed, giving an invitation.</p>
<p>&#8220;Finally the seed falls on good ground. It always will if you share a good idea long enough, it always will fall on good ground.  Some of the good ground did 30%, some 60%, some of the good ground did 100%</p>
<p>&#8220;Skills; Getting a customer, making a sale. Sharing something with someone else and sharing it well enough that they want to join you.</p>
<p>&#8220;Simple art of sales</p>
<p>&#8220;Making sales, recruiting, learning how to give a good presentation and following up.</p>
<p>&#8220;Nourish it like a mother and protect it like a father.</p>
<p>&#8220;Nourishment ~ ideas like a mother and protection, help defend your new life against encroachment of outside voices that would try to talk them out of it.</p>
<p>&#8220;Be the bridge from the shadows to the sunshine.  The most exciting part of network marketing, help people cross the bridge out from discouragement into recognition.</p>
<p>&#8220;You&#8217;ve got the answers, they&#8217;ve been looking for the answers You see something in them before they can see it themselves. You assure them that they can be more than they are. They can have more than they got, have more than they possess.</p>
<p>&#8220;Find a way to serve the MANY because service to many means greatness.</p>
<p>&#8220;Help people with their problems and you&#8217;re disappear.  Same product difference is ambition.</p>
<p>&#8220;Serve as many people as you would like.  Service to many leads to greatness.</p>
<p>&#8220;Don&#8217;t ask what people can do for you, ask what you can do for them.  Money isn&#8217;t everything but it ranks right up there with oxygen.&#8221; ~Zig Ziglar</p>
<p>&#8220;If you help enough people get what they want you can have everything you want.&#8221; ~ Zig Ziglar</p>
<p>&#8220;If two or three people agree on a common purpose, nothing is impossible.</p>
<p>&#8220;We all need to belong to something bigger than ourselves.</p>
<p>&#8220;I did it again and I did it again and I did it again.&#8221; &#8220;Don&#8217;t be lazy in language.</p>
<p>&#8220;Help people see themselves as they are. Then help them see the person that they can become.</p>
<p>&#8220;Learn to work with the people who deserve it not the people who need it. Teach people how to deserve your time. You try, I try.</p>
<p>&#8220;The greatest value in life is not a bank account, a car, a home to live in.  The greatest value in life is this:  Living a good life.&#8221;  1. Productivity 2. Good friends 3. Spirituality: Study, practice, teach. 4. Don&#8217;t miss anything. If you live well, you will earn well. 5. Take care of the inner circle, take care of them and they&#8217;ll take care of you. 6. Ask for God&#8217;s help. We have a chance as human beings to participate in the miracle processes.&#8221;</p>
<p>Jim Rohn passed away December 5, 2009.</p>
<p>&#8220;He left indelible foot prints behind.&#8221;  Darren Hardy said at his tribute. His life and legacy of inspiration and business philosophy was captured in the books written and notes taken at his events that will be passed on for generations.</p>

<p>I can’t thank her enough! Katie started me down this road online and these years have been so fun they are rivaling my favorite decade; my 30s raising my children!</p>
<p>I’m a 48 yr old stay-at-home mom, nurturing a 28 year marriage, raising 8 children (with 2 seniors still at home) and now I’m becoming famous online!</p>
<p>I learned from Katie with her free 7 day training videos and created <a href="http://lindagraceonline.com" target="_blank">Lindagraceonline.com.</a> It took me almost 2 ½ years of sharing my experiences online before I finally accepted my circumstance and defined my niche.<img class="alignright size-thumbnail wp-image-2846" title="linda Cox" src="http://lindagraceonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/linda-Cox-100x100.jpg" alt="" width="100" height="100" /></p>
<p>Now I’m helping others find joy, one step at a time.</p>
<p>Multiple Sclerosis put a speed bump in my plans of returning to work as a counselor when my kids were in school. I’ve defined my new reality and am now working from home.</p>
<p>I am devoted to helping others with medically limiting situations find joy in their circumstances.</p>
<p>On <a href="http://MSrelief.com" target="_blank" onclick="urchinTracker('/outgoing/MSrelief.com?referer=');">MSrelief.com</a> I’m an affiliate marketer offering solutions to ease the difficulties that come when living with multiple sclerosis.</p>

I’ve loved my years as a stay-at-home mom and now my children have grown to be wonderful contributing members of society!</p>
<p><strong>Original Plan: Graduate, Work, Have Kids, Raise them, Work as a Counselor and Earn Money when Kids Leave Home.</strong></p>
<p>I graduated from East Anchorage High School in 1981, then from college at BYU – Utah in 1987. After obtaining a bachelors of social work, I became a group counselor at the abused women’s shelter in Anchorage.</p>
<p>When my 4th child was born, I decided to be a full-time mom.</p>
<p><strong>Evolution: Get MS, Raise Kids, Work from home as a counselor and earn money with iWowWe.</strong></p>
<p>In 1995 I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis which put a bump in my plans to go back to work as a counselor when my kids were in school. It’s been a great learning experience. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T346qSk5t3c" target="_blank" onclick="urchinTracker('/outgoing/www.youtube.com/watch?v=T346qSk5t3c&amp;referer=');">You can watch my story here. </a></p>
<p>When I accepted <a href="http://lindagraceonline.com/define-our-new-reality/" target="_blank">my new reality</a>, and truly embraced it, I created this blog.<br />
I started blogging with <a href="http://lindagraceonline.com/ " target="_blank">lindagraceonline.com</a>, a blog dedicated to showing you that you can enjoy your life, no matter what your external circumstances are.</p>
<p>With the primary purpose of helping others enjoy life, I also intended to learn enough to eventually make money.</p>
<p>I’ve fallen in love with <a href="http://lindagraceonline.com/social-media-revolution/" target="_blank">social medi a network marketing!</a> I could see people everywhere making tons of money and since I can’t work outside the home, (and I probably wouldn’t want to even if I could) I decided to make money online!<br />
After learning a ton and trying many things I’ve found the answer to my quest for making money with the impressive opportunity called iWowWe.</p>
<p>It took me almost 2 years to decide on a niche. When I accepted my circumstances that dictated my niche I created <a href="http://multiplesclerosis-relief.com/ " target="_blank" onclick="urchinTracker('/outgoing/multiplesclerosis-relief.com/?referer=');">Multiple Sclerosis &#8211; Relief.com</a>.</p>
<p>iWowWe video conferencing has a platform that I can use for my MS Support Group that will be launched the first of September, 2011.</p>
<p>iWowWe is the perfect Multi-tier Affiliate Marketing Platform for any business. I look forward to helping others succeed with iWowWe! You can join my team for free and if you want to make money, the service is provided for a nominal fee.</p>

Click there and on the drop down menu you’ll see enroll. Click and a window will pop up to leave your name, email address and password. It’s simple!</p>

<p>An opportunity was presented to me just when I needed it. I was approached by my friend, <a href="http://liveyourbest-life.com/" target="_blank" onclick="urchinTracker('/outgoing/liveyourbest-life.com/?referer=');"><strong>Don Enck</strong></a>, about a new venture he had undertaken. I had been searching for the right business to join online.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve been studying online marketing for over two years and I could see how everyone was making money! I followed many fabulous people who had found their passion and were making money when they shared. The whole process was exciting and I knew it could be done, but I wasn&#8217;t figuring out how it would work for me!</p>
<p>I tried a number of products, got over my fear of network marketing, learned and learned more. I was hanging out, sharing information on my blog, information that I know and love.  Information that has helped me find joy in my life and I&#8217;m confident that no matter what the circumstances are , will help others find joy also.</p>
<p>My husband and I raised eight children on one income, he was the sole provider for our home.  I&#8217;m forever grateful for his attitude of  &#8220;my money is our money&#8221; as I was able to stay at home and raise our eight children.   I had planned on going back to work when the kids were in high school then I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis and it put a <a href="http://lindagraceonline.com/speed-bump-wrap-around-video-test/" target="_blank">speed bump</a> in my plan.</p>
<p>When I first began my quest to master internet marketing, I was drawn to video.  I bought a <a href="http://lindagraceonline.com/logitech-pro-9000/" target="_blank">Logitech pro 9000 webcam</a>,  and a flipcam then began to make movies, but I couldn&#8217;t see how I would be able to make money with them.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s amazing how the law of attraction comes into play. As if I ordered it, a friend, <a href="http://tonisuggests.com/why/" target="_blank" onclick="urchinTracker('/outgoing/tonisuggests.com/why/?referer=');">Toni King</a>, sent me to Simon Sinek&#8217;s movie. Simon teaches about finding the WHY. Why are we motivated to do what we do?  Why was I drawn to video marketing? At Don&#8217;s request  I signed up for the free account with <a href="http://iWowWe.com/Lindagracecox" target="_blank" onclick="urchinTracker('/outgoing/iWowWe.com/Lindagracecox?referer=');"> iWowWe</a> and it didn&#8217;t take long before I upgraded to the premium membership. With iWowWe I have found an avenue to make the money that I desire even though my circumstance doesn&#8217;t allow me to work outside the home!</p>
<p>I am not able to go back to work as I planned, but I am grateful that I was prepared when Don presented this opportunity to me and I am making money online~ I know that my &#8216;why&#8217; will be obtained with <a href="http://lindagraceonline.com/step-in-front-with-iwowwe-video-email/" target="_blank">iWowWe</a>!</p>
<p>I&#8217;d love for you to join my iWowWe team! Go to this link: <a href="http://www.iwowwe.com/lc0240" target="_blank" onclick="urchinTracker('/outgoing/www.iwowwe.com/lc0240?referer=');">iWowWe.com/LindaGraceCox </a> on the top right you&#8217;ll see the affiliates tab. Hover there with your mouse and a drop down menu will appear where you will see Affiliate Program.

<p>I am a jack of all trades in the homemaking with children department.  I have given birth in a hospital, on a birthing stool, at home in bed, and in a huge soft birthing tub.   Our kids have done public school, charter schools, online schools, and all-out home school.  I have baked and cooked up all kinds of meat-filled, sugar-filled, and butter laden dishes followed up with tofu vegan lasagna and 100% raw vegan squash spaghetti.  Pick a year or two and I can tell you what phase I was in.</p>
<p>I like to try things.  I like to organize things.  Everything has it’s place.  Including each one of my phases.  I put my vegetarian phase in with my early home school phase.  My walking phase goes in with my Weight Watcher phase.  Everything in a box.  Like teaching history and literature and math and science but not having any of those things touch.  Each subject completely apart from the other.  Don’t let the peas touch the mashed potatoes because that’s just gross.</p>
<p>I did learn something once though.  I can’t treat myself like a dinner plate.  I cannot take care of my mind with only a bit of reading and stimulating conversation.  My emotional well being hinges on more than just high doses of B-Vitamins.  My mind, my feelings, and my body are so interconnected there is no telling where one ends and the other begins.  My strength is so much more than muscle mass.  I have learned that being healthy is finding balance.  It is that place where mind, body, and spirit meet and have a pleasant conversation.  They agree. There is harmony.  And there is work.</p>
<p>Energy spent for emotional well being.  Effort put forth to fortify the mind.  Exercise of body and mind for the sake of peace within.  There is no substitute for work.  Work is a true and divine principle.  My work has ranged from willing my body to crawl across the floor to call for help, to running 200 miles across the desert with a relay team of friends on no sleep and little food.  My work is mine.  It is finding the right thing at the right time.</p>
<p>It seems as though this time, <em>yoga</em> is the thing.  With my <em>husband.</em></p>
<p>My cute man does YOGA with me!  He used to roll his eyes and chuckle softly when I would talk to him about a full yogic breath and centering and sun salutations.  Now he is “Namaste-ing” with the best of em’.  Well.  Kind of.  Instead of touching his head to his shins he is only able to reach in the general direction, but hey, he is taking a certain level of relaxation with him throughout his day.  And <em>that</em> is cool.</p>
<p>So I am thinking that maybe my current yoga phase can touch my running phase which coincides with my walking phase.  Maybe they can cozy up and hold hands.  Maybe they can even get thrown into a bowl together and get all mixed up and combine together so you can’t tell where one ends and the other begins.  I like that idea.  It reminds me of making cookies.  Healthy no sugar no flour cookies of course.  Which I did.  Last night.  I will show you those next time.</p>
<p>But for now, let’s just eat our peas and potatoes together in one bite.  Mind, body, and spirit.  Working together.  Inhale and Stretch to Your Left…….</p>

I want to tell you exactly what this means.</p>
<p>I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that Jesus Christ has restored His church through Joseph Smith. I haven’t always known that.</p>
<p><iframe width="560" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/6dVJfPD5GBI" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>Until I was 16 years old I had never met a Mormon. When I was in elementary school I saw a Mormon family cross the plains on Little House on the Prairie, and that’s all I knew.</p>
<p>As a senior in high school I was a professed atheist. I sat behind Denise in chemistry class at my new school. I was as inquisitive then as I am now. When asked about her religion, she told me she was a Mormon.</p>
<p>I was fascinated when she told me that they had early morning seminary – a church class for high school students, before school. “Wow,” I asked her, “you go to church every day?”</p>
<p>Denise’s relationship led me to meet her brother, Rob, who was home from college waiting for his Mission call~ another shocker! Rob was devoting two years of his life, at his expense to preach? Amazing! After dating for a few weeks, Rob invited me to listen to the missionaries. I learned a bunch from them and more about the church from the lessons he taught by example.</p>
<p>When Rob wouldn’t take me to the movies on Sunday it was another shocker, “What,” I asked, “you believe in keeping the Sabbath day holy?” When both he and Denise encouraged me to say, “Gosh” instead of the Lords name, I only chuckled.</p>
<p>I listened to the missionaries once a week for months. When I attended sacrament (worship) meeting with his family, the program was dedicated to Rob’s mission farewell. The entire family was crying and Rob’s dad shook my hand. He said to me, “There Linda, you’ve had your first spiritual experience.”</p>
<p>I thought to myself sarcastically, “Spiritual experience? Everyone is sad that Rob will be gone for two years! It’s normal emotions, not ‘the spirit’.”</p>
<p>After Rob left to serve his mission in Scotland, I started attending other churches to compare for myself. I continued for months, still seeing the missionaries almost every week. I did as the Missionaries suggested, I was obedient to the commandments and prayed to receive witness that there was a God and if the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the “only true church” as the missionaries were claiming. I came to recognize there is a God but I wasn’t ready to hear if the LDS church is where I should attend.</p>
<p>I continued comparing churches, until I came to the conclusion that if I was going to join a church, it would be the LDS church because it followed the Bible the closest. At that time I didn’t want to devote my life to God and the gospel. I was getting grief from my family and friends for even considering it. I remember writing in my journal, “I am so confused, I don’t know what to do! I just want to live a ‘normal Bailey existence’.</p>
<p>But I new too much, I could never live with myself if I denied the Church of Jesus Christ, no matter what my friends and family thought.</p>
<p>When I told the missionaries I was ready to be baptized, they were very excited and surprised that I was only 17. I’d need my mom’s permission to be baptized.</p>
<p>My mom denied permission for almost 6 months, then finally relented, assuming it was a whim and I’d forget about it when I moved back to live with my dad in Michigan for the year before college.</p>
<p>I was baptized a year after I was introduced to the church, October 10, 1981.</p>
<p>Thirty years later, my testimony is stronger than ever. I know that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the vehicle that will take us back to Him. As a member of this church, I live a wonderful life, of course full of bumps and bruises, but I’m helped and supported by God himself (through the hands of His people) to get through and I’m honestly happy because of it!</p>
<p>Thank you for letting me share my beliefs!<br />

Sound, intention, words, written words, they all impact our soul!! I wouldn&#8217;t have believed it, not in a million years!</p>
<p>My 16-year-old daughter (now 17) watched a YouTube video with me of Dr. Masaru Emoto&#8217;s experiment on water.</p>
<p><strong>As soon as the movie was over, Lilli jumped up and did the experiment for herself.</strong></p>
<p>She cooked a cup of rice, evenly divided it into two clear plastic drinking glasses and filled them with tap water. She created two labels and taped them to the outside of the drinking glasses so that the words could be &#8220;read&#8221; by the contents of the cup. On one label she wrote <strong>LOVE</strong> and on the other cup the paper said <strong>YOU SUCK</strong> (spoken like a true teen- I&#8217;d have said HATE.)</p>
<p>She set them by the stove in the kitchen, right next to each other, just like you see in the picture.</p>
<p> <iframe title="YouTube video player" width="640" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/TWAuc9GIvFo?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>At the beginning of her experiment, she would talk to the cups of rice. To the <strong>LOVE</strong> cup she would say <strong>kind and complementary words</strong>. To the <strong>other</strong> cup she would say <strong>mean and hateful words</strong>. After a few weeks (I wish we would have written the date!) the Love cup was <strong>crystal clear</strong>, the &#8220;you suck&#8221; cup was <strong>growing mold</strong>. Amazing!! <strong>You can see it for yourself!</strong><br />
< <em>&#8220;Tears are words the heart can&#8217;t express&#8221;</p>
<p><em>&#8220;One of the hardest things in life is having words in your heart that you can&#8217;t utter.&#8221;</em><br />
James Earl Jones</p>
<p><em>&#8220;Love is just a word until someone comes along and gives it meaning.&#8221;</em></p>
<p><em>&#8220;If you realized how powerful your thoughts are, you would never think a negative thought.&#8221;</em><br />
Peace Pilgrim quotes</p>
<p><em>&#8220;We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world.&#8221;</em><br />
Buddha</p>
<p>Dr. Masaru Emoto has called us together today, March 31, 2011 at 12 noon in every time zone to send thoughts and prayers to the people of Japan. <br />

<p><strong><a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/akismet" target="_blank" onclick="urchinTracker('/outgoing/wordpress.org/extend/plugins/akismet?referer=');">Akismet</a></strong> is the standard in spam prevention. It’s easy to set up, included with WordPress by default and is all that’s needed for many blogs.</p>
<p>The problem is that Akismet keys are no longer free for business use. $60/yr is too steep for most micro-businesses to afford right out of the gate.</p>
<p>Kimberly found <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/defensio-anti-spam/" target="_blank" onclick="urchinTracker('/outgoing/wordpress.org/extend/plugins/defensio-anti-spam/?referer=');">Defensio</a> and <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/typepad-antispam/" target="_blank" onclick="urchinTracker('/outgoing/wordpress.org/extend/plugins/typepad-antispam/?referer=');">TrueType Anti-Spam</a> to be two viable, reliable alternatives that currently remain free. One other option is  <a href="http://just-ask-kim.com/wordpress-plugin-review-growmap-anti-spambot-plugin/" target="_blank" onclick="urchinTracker('/outgoing/just-ask-kim.com/wordpress-plugin-review-growmap-anti-spambot-plugin/?referer=');">Growmap Anti-Spambot </a>.</p>
<p>Take your pick.  It’s not necessary to use all of them, but what ever you choose, be sure to keep an eye on the spam box, because like all spam prevention solutions, these occasionally mark a good post as spam.</p>
<p>Personally I use Akismet because it is the Wp default spam protection and True Type Anti-Spam.  I’ve followed Kimberly’s advice and I haven’t been sorry. </p>

You might even know her. That super confident, always poised person who isn&#8217;t swept up in the opinions of others. Her healthy social relationships are relaxed and joyful. Although she values her friends and family, she&#8217;s strong enough to make good decisions without crumbling to the pressure or expectations of those around her. Everyone treats her with great respect and seems happier when she&#8217;s around. In fact, she&#8217;s usually happy herself. Often it even seems that she gets favorable treatment wherever she goes.</p>
<p>Why did she seem to do it with such ease?</p>
<p>Studies have shown that people with healthy self-esteem really are treated differently than people with low-self-esteem. Because of this treatment, it re-enforces what they already believe about themselves. Higher self-esteem people often receive favorable treatment. They&#8217;re strengthened by positive past performance and they believe they are and will be successful in what they set out to do.</p>
<p>Low-self-esteem people are often plagued by doubt, past rejections and failure. They are more likely ignored, put down, rejected, not listened to, compared to others or labeled than their higher self-esteem counterparts. Because they rely on others to support and approve of them, they give in to peer pressure more often.</p>
<p>It really does matter what we think about ourselves.</p>
<p>A friend of mine has a note taped by her computer to remind her of this. It says, &#8220;Listen to your heart above all other voices.&#8221;<br />
~ Marta Kagan</p>
<p>It might not be an overnight process to become the confident, poised person we long to be. But we can start focusing on good, right, true thoughts and then we&#8217;ll be one step closer to becoming that person we truly long to be.</p>
<p>Tell me in the comments what you&#8217;ve done to be the woman you want to be.<br />
