Finding Meaningful Purpose In Life: Embracing a Cause

Heather Taskovics — Fri, 11 Jun 2010 04:30:31 +0000

"This is the true joy in life, the being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one; the being thoroughly worn out before you are thrown on the scrap heap; the being a force of Nature instead of a feverish, selfish little clod of ailments and grievances, complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy." ~George Bernard Shaw

Live Life Loud. Those words have been going through my head ever since I started reading Gary Vaynerchuk's book, "Crush It!" just a few days ago, and I felt an overwhelming desire to write post about them. While searching for the words *Live Life Loud* on Google, I came across a link to a YouTube video by the band, Hawk

When it comes to network marketing, communication is key. There are so many different ways to approach this; however, many newcomers to the industry tend to forget (or simply are not aware of) the process and methods involved when communicating with their prospects. What inevitably happens is that a lot of improper and unprofessional responses ensue as a result of mis-communication by either one or both parties involved.

Music can be such an amazing inspiration. There is this song by the Black Eyed Peas that has inspired me to write this blog. Here it is for your listening pleasure:

You may have heard some well-known self-help gurus reminding everyone to have "An Attitude Of Gratitude" pretty frequently lately. In one of my posts, I even talk briefly about the importance of showing gratitude in order to become successful in all that you set out to do. The reason is that by constantly showing gratitude for

Perfection: Letting Go Of The Myth And Allowing Creativity To Grow

Heather Taskovics — Sat, 24 Oct 2009 17:20:31 +0000

As human beings, we constantly strive to achieve ultimate perfection in our lives--the perfect life, the perfect body, the perfect clothes, perfect looks, etc. In reality, the idea of perfection is simply a myth created by our egos--IT SIMPLY DOES NOT EXIST--at least, not in the sense that we have been trained to believe...

There are times when we feel overwhelmed by all that we are doing in our quest to see our goals and dreams come to fruition. We even find ourselves wondering WHY we even started in the first place and WHY do we keep going despite setbacks, defeatist comments from well-meaning friends and even self-defeating internal chatter from our egos...

I don't typically get a chance to watch Oprah--my 2 1/2 yo daughter prefers Imagination Movers (sorry Oprah!)--but I did hear about an amazing performance by the Black Eyed Peas that was enhanced by an even MORE AMAZING performance by the audience, and was fortunate to have been led to the following video on YouTube...

Heather Taskovics — Tue, 11 Aug 2009 01:36:14 +0000

My daughter loves to play with crayons. She'll grab the box and hold it closely to herself as though it contained the treasures of the world. In fact, once she has her box of crayons, she refuses to part with it and carries it around like one of her favorite dolls! And every time we break out the box of crayons and paper, my beloved toddler cries out, "Draw Continue reading

Life's Lessons Are Learned When You Are A Child.

Heather Taskovics — Wed, 29 Jul 2009 02:46:43 +0000

Lately, I've been thinking of the well-known essay by Robert Fulghum, "All I Really Need To Know I Learned In Kindergarten", and realized that we really did learn (almost) everything we needed to know about life skills when we were just 5 or 6 years old. Now I know that Fulghum's essay doesn't touch on useful subjects like how to change a diaper, bake cookies, change the oil in your car Continue reading
