If I was to ask you to define happiness and success, what would you say? And if I asked your friends and family members, do you think the answer would be the same?Happiness and success are subjective; they're personal and individualistic. It would make no sense to look for them outside of ourselves because they're OURS. Yet we often do. We often expect others to make us feel happy or successful. Or we look to other people’s definitions of happiness or success in order to follow them. That’s like asking someone for the manual of their coffee machine so you can use it to operate your smoothie maker or vacuum cleaner.So when it comes to defining happiness and success, YOU create your own definition. Yes, you can be inspired by others. Just also remember that you are beautifully unique and YOU get to decide how you want to spend y…

SEO vs. Social Media Marketing - Which is Better?

With online marketing, there’s a debate raging among experts over which strategy is best to grow your business.

Would SEO or social media marketing be the better option?

Let’s compare both strategies to see which option is best.

Targeting an Audience

Met a fabulous person some day in the past who had been blogging for three years intermittently but never bothered to give the blog a purpose. She was surprised that a blog could actually be purposed. In her words “The purpose of the blog is that I write and people read”. But what do you get out of it, Alice? (not real name) I mean other that ‘satisfaction and happiness’? Alice had no words.

So, I had been given this herculean task of finding purposes for blogs.

Needless to say, you need traffic flying into your blog on a regular basis or you need a very strong paid advertising strategy to make money on your blog.

Do you ever feel like you are in a war against yourself to create the change that you desire? Do you want to lose weight but can’t resist the sweets? Do you want to kick a bad habit but have tried countless times with no luck?From a Hypnotherapist’s standpoint, this is not your fault. This inner conflict happens because your conscious desires are fighting against your subconscious programming. What most people don’t know is that your conscious mind, where all of your thinking takes place, makes up only 12% of your mind; the other 88% is made up of your subconscious mind.When I first tell clients this they are baffled. How could their 60,000+ daily thoughts make up only 12% of their brainpower? It all comes back to automatic behaviors and thought patterns. You live the majority of your life on autopilot. You do not have to put a lot …

We are currently dealing with situations in our world that is every changing and are different than what we expected it to be. We are forced to deal with the fallout of our businesses and our relationships due to the continued shut down of certain businesses, current health crisis, and government restrictions. With the riots, fires in California, hurricane in Louisiana and the polarization of the political climate, the world is simply a different place than we expected to be.

We are now having a whole generation of people whose mood is easily altered and manipulated by our GPS, and the internet. Our self-esteem and self-confidence are related to how much likes and follows we have in our Facebook or other social media accounts. The likes from our social media accounts become a machine of destruction for our mood that is based on a popularity contest t…

What are a trademark and its use for business? There are various companies that brew beer but how is it possible that we can easily identify Corona from Blue Moon? Aren’t we supposed to be confused considering there are hundreds of beer companies selling their product in the market?! Giving a different name, logo or catchphrase to a product makes it distinct from other products of the same category. This explains why McDonald’s is not “finger-lickin’ good”. To understand trademarks better, we have addressed some important common questions below.

A. What exactly is a trademark?

A trademark is a word, symbol or phrase used to identify a product and distinguish it from the product of another manufacturer or seller. Trademark prevents consumer confusion and makes it easier for them to select and purchase the goods and services they want. Example: the …
