Anyone who wants to make a lot of money online should study the business strategies of Mark Zuckerberg (Facebook), Steve Case (AOL), Jeff Bezos (Amazon), Reed Hastings (Netflix), Jerry Yang (Yahoo!), Pierre Omidyar (eBay) and a host of other internet billionaires and billionaires. They have strategies that, when replicated, could make one big money online.

What are they?

Mainly they can be grouped into seven categories:

1. Recognize a trend and take advantage of it

2. Start the business from the bottom up

3. Work without pay

4. Be innovative

5. Have a solid mission

6. Offering free services

7. Reinvest the income in business.

Now, let’s see the strategies:

Recognize a trend and take advantage of it

Internet millionaires and billionaires didn’t just get rich. They were prepared for it. This preparation allowed them to seize the opportunity when it occurred.

When these guys started their businesses, the internet was just a fad. But recognizing its potential, they set out to harness it, and their foresight paid off.

If you want to make money online too, you need to keep an eye out for trends; then accept the change and use it to your advantage. This is what distinguishes successful entrepreneurs from their average counterparts.

But know that there are no shortcuts to business success. What it takes is hard work and the right positioning. This way, if opportunity knocks on the door, you can meet it and take advantage of it.

Starting the business from the bottom up

We all know that wealthy Internet entrepreneurs like Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, and Larry Page didn’t start out rich or make money online overnight. They started small, from the bottom and made their way. You are allowed to dream big, but if you don’t have the means and don’t start where you are, you will never get anywhere.

Remember: Mark Zuckerberg, Larry Page, Jerry Yang, David Filo, Sergey Brin, etc. they started their Internet businesses from the dormitories of their schools. Jeff Bezos even started Amazon from his garage.

Now, is it the idea that worked for you? No, says Mark Cuban. According to him, if they were ideas everyone would get rich since everyone has ideas. The winning streak was the task that lets you know if the idea would work in a particular industry. Then prepare to turn the idea into reality.

In other words, when these internet millionaires and billionaires came up with their ideas, they didn’t wait for a big investor to put them into practice. They started with their meager resources and continued until they made money online.

Are you ready to do the same if you had a great idea? Of course you must, if you also want to earn money from the Internet.

Working without salary

Another quality to learn and practice is the capacity for sacrifice. Mark Zuckerberg made it clear that he and his colleagues did not work for the money. What was important to them was that they had created a flow of information for people.

You should also be prepared to work for your idea for free in the initial stages of your Internet business. Like those millionaires and billionaires, don’t worry at all if you don’t get a penny. Like them, focus solely on developing your business idea and keep sacrificing for it. Success will surely come one day. This is similar to failing to gently kill the goose that lays the golden eggs.

Be innovative

Innovation is key to success in any business, perhaps even more so in Internet entrepreneurship. We said earlier that internet millionaires and billionaires were well positioned for sixteen opportunities that presented themselves. But this does not mean that they were pioneers in their niche.

Many of them were even late, but the difference was the innovation they brought to the industry. Larry Page once made it clear that his goal was innovation and he believed that mobile apps were essential.

See: before Google and Yahoo there was the search engine ask.com. Other small independent online bookstores existed before Jeff Bezos created Amazon and positioned it as the largest bookstore in the world. Facebook wasn’t the first social networking site either; MySpace was already established. Goal Mark Zuckerberg took to Facebook. Thanks to the innovative spirit of these Internet entrepreneurs, you know the rest of the stories.

So you don’t necessarily have to be first in your industry to succeed. You also don’t have to reinvent the wheel. The most important requirement for success on the Internet is that you bring innovation (improvement) to an existing idea.

Have a strong mission

Mark Zuckerberg made this clear when he said that what really mattered to him was the mission to open up the world.

The above mentioned millionaire and billionaire internet entrepreneurs and others believed that they had a mission to accomplish with their internet businesses. Not just any mission, but the one that would allow them to have a positive impact on humanity.

If you also want to give yourself that mission, at the beginning of your internet business, you must ask yourself why you want to start the business. So never lose that focus as the business grows.

Didn’t Jeff Bezos emphasize that the most important goal for him was to be obsessively customer-centric, to be the most customer-centric company in the world? This can make the difference between success and failure. This is because a business mission helps maintain focus, keeping the entrepreneur on the right track.

The business mission must also be strong. That will help you stay successful when you arrive. Perhaps this is what made the difference between MySpace and Facebook, as the latter’s stronger mission became the driving force that caused it to outshine the former. The same goes for the phenomenal success of Google. According to Larry Page, his mission was to organize the world’s information and make it useful and accessible everywhere.

Offering free services

How much did you pay to use Google search or have a Yahoo, Google or Facebook account? Any.

Mark Zuckerberg’s Facebook, by allowing family and friends to stay in touch, was fulfilling a vital need. Offering the service for free made it much more attractive and accessible. Google provided vital information for free. Since people love free services, they undoubtedly flocked to these sites and the service providers reaped more and more money on the internet. Didn’t Rich Dad say that if you want to be rich, you just serve more people?

So if you want to make money online too, offer a valuable service to people for free or at least for a fee that many can afford.

Reinvest the income in the business

The seventh secret of success for Internet millionaires and billionaires was that they reinvested what they earned in their businesses. Jeff Bezos, for example, did not pay dividends for five years; Larry Page and Sergey Brin worked hard without any gratification. By reinvesting their earnings, time, and resources, these internet guys stayed engaged and expanded their business through strategic acquisitions. They certainly became millionaires and billionaires.

If you also want to get to where they are now, reinvesting in your business would be critical to business growth and expansion.

Now that you know the Seven Success Secrets of Internet Millionaires and Billionaires, why not make them your roadmap to success to reap wealth on the Internet, too?

Last week I wrote about mindset. I spoke of a mindset that achieves very little. In this article, I will discuss a mindset that can achieve extraordinary results.

As I said, the person who complains, protests, winds, whines, etc. he is the person who secretly believes that he will never get what he wants. As a result, they waste time taking action that makes it appear that they are committed to a cause. That action is protesting. If you ask about their cause, they usually tell you what they don’t want.

When I’m with clients, I talk about the idea of ​​talking about what you don’t want. I use the illustration that goes like this: in that corner is everything you don’t want or don’t like. You go out of your way to make sure that the things you don’t want stay in that corner. Fight against them. Yell at them. And you can even get others to help you contain what you don’t want. However, in the corner behind you is everything you want. Except, you will need the same fervor and commitment that you use on the things you don’t want to achieve, those things in the corner that you do want.

This is the dilemma most find themselves in. They believe that it is powerful and strong to fight against what they do not want. As you can imagine, they fill their lives with what they don’t want. All they have to do is turn around and focus on the corner behind them.

To change that mindset, you will have to do a paradigm shift. If a community has been focused on fighting what it doesn’t want for generations, it will be a challenge to make a mindset shift. To make sustainable change, it will take work.

On the one hand, the current mentality will have to be addressed. The complainant’s mindset is most likely full of real and imagined trauma. That trauma, if left unaddressed, will continue to force you to make decisions that may appear to protect you. But, you will still be focused on what you don’t want. As a note, healing has nothing to do with tackling it. It is more effective to face it head-on. Healing requires you to wait. Facing requires action. Once addressed effectively, it becomes easier to discern how you sabotage your own efforts, personally, socially, and professionally. Then you have the freedom to choose another paradigm.

Second, it is imperative to be clear about what it represents. When you can articulate your stand, it is important to know what you are committed to.

Third, what actions correlate with your position and commitment? In other words, what actions reflect your position and commitment? This is the question to ask yourself when things are not going as expected, such as when breakdowns occur.

Fourth, be honest about the political structure of the United States. It is not and never was a democracy. It is a republic. In a republic, the government serves the large landowners and merchants. These landowners and merchants write laws. If you are just a consumer, you will never have the financial power to influence legislators. With financial power, you can write, not influence, the laws that affect your community.

If you look at the African American community, you can ask the individual and the entire community what they represent. Too often people talk about niceties, like world peace and making a difference. Except your actions don’t reflect world peace. Look at the riots.

If the black community stood up for economic power, they would commit to building organizations that employ, provide products and services, and empower the community. Instead of the black dollar staying in the community for six hours, it would stay in the community for six months. For example, black Americans would no longer buy Nike. They would only support sneakers made and owned by black Americans. Employees, investors and suppliers would also be African American and could outsource to Africa. While this may seem like a pipe dream, it is not. There is a trillion dollars that comes out of the black community each year. Yet black Americans protest that they have no economic power when it is already in their own hands.

Nike is a company that absorbs huge amounts of money from the American black community. Tommy Hilfiger, Christian Louboutin, and McDonald’s are others. In return, they offer very little. While Nike has black American board members and executives, it is an insufficient representation of the economic power that is available in the black community – $ 1 trillion. Build trillion dollar organizations.

That will require commitment, training, planning organization, and a whole new mindset. Protesting won’t get you there, unless you want the things you don’t want. Construction is needed. In the 21st century, there are enough rich and wealthy black Americans who can raise money and build: John Rogers, Russell Simmons, Sean Combs, Jay-Z, Beyonce, Michael Jordan, Bob Johnson, Oprah, and many, many more. If not now when?

At the beginning of Impact TNA I like to say “TNA, we are struggling.” Well, after watching the Hall of Fame, Wrestlemania, and the farewell segment, I think it’s safe to say that living legend Ric Flair is indeed the true icon of professional wrestling.

Just under a year ago, when Ric Flair was working with Carlito and was reeling in the lower ranks of WWE, I wrote a very negative article titled “Ric Flair from Designer to Desperate”, asking WWE to put him out of his misery. Little did he know that just a few months later, the company would finally learn what Ric Flair is all about and give him the kind of sendoff that only Flair can deliver.

Before his five-star match against Shawn Michaels at Wrestlemania, there was a certain degree of panic and concern about how it would all turn out. There were rumors that WWE had turned down an initially good angle for Flair’s retirement from Steve Austin and then Naitch had a falling out with the company, leading to him taking time off camera. Hell, even TNA loyalists thought he might jump ship (in hindsight, how horrible that would have been!)

They eventually resolved all of their relationship issues and WWE and Flair were back on the same page, although the story of “losing a match and getting fired” left little to be desired. Facing the workers, being kept off Raw for 2 weeks and then losing, but continuing to maintain his career on Smackdown did not make him a threat to his career and led many to believe that WWE was not putting their full force behind him. that. We barely got a classic Flair mic. Maybe it’s because Vince still saw Ric as a WCW guy (God forbid he furthers a talent you didn’t create) or maybe the writers, who are mini-clones of Hollywood’s Vince, didn’t “get” what Ric Flair was. . Why should they? He was never a major player in the company so they probably wouldn’t know better, I mean part of what Vince looks for in new creative hires is not to be die-hard fans.

Then came the biggest factor in this retirement angle: Shawn Michaels. Bad booking and creative failure, no matter how bad, can never stop someone like Shawn Michaels and Ric Flair from shining through and making it their own. The cream rises to the top in any scenario. Some may argue that Flair needed to pass the torch, but in this case he did. Flair was the most important in the 70-80s and still dominated in the 90s, HBK was the most important in the 90-00s and will continue to dominate until the 2010s.

Were they friends, weren’t they friends? Did they really respect each other or not? Were they jealous? Would HBK make a superkick Flair? OLD YELLA! All of these factors came together to set the wheels for a classic wrestling story. But one that was finally told in the ring as it should be.

The Hall of Fame is something I look forward to every year, despite being too young to have seen any of the members in their prime (not to say I don’t have the tapes). But this year was special, not just because Ric is the only active performer to be admitted, but because there was a special heart-pounding atmosphere that said, this is the end of an era. Every year you get those heartfelt messages and acceptance speeches, but you can see from every person’s face at this year’s ceremony that Flair is the man and that everything that was said about him was not silly. That was true. I’m 17 years old and I shed a tear: what the heck was happening to the people who grew up idolizing Flair?

For me, most of Wrestlemania is like all PPVs. They have some good games that I want to see and the rest I only listen to or watch with part of my attention. This one was different, simply because of Ric Flair. Something during that Hall of Fame rekindled my passion and I sat and watched every part of Wrestlemania from start to finish without a break and loved it. Watching the recap videos still sends chills. The sheer enormity of it all was overwhelming and if non-fans can’t sit there and be inspired by this event, then they’re not human.

The match itself was 5-star, perhaps Flair’s biggest match in the last 20 years. I’m afraid it was the last “old school” match we’ll see, where a story begins, grows, and ends in the ring. When Flair stood up crying with his fists raised and Michaels said “Sorry, I love you”, he was proud to be a fan of wrestling. If those who say they don’t wonder why we watch wrestling and not the UFC, then this is why. The UFC could never and will never pull the strings of the heart like this game did, period. The result was as good as the match itself: we all wanted Flair to win, but in the context of the story, like the end of a movie, the logical and more realistic conclusion came about. If the saga ended there, he would have died happily, but the actual tissues had not yet been reached.

The next night on Raw was Ric Flair’s farewell speech. What makes this even more special was the fact that Flair had no idea what was going to happen, it was like a surprise birthday party. Flair came out to the ring and cut a pretty generic thank you and goodbye promotion, went to put down the mic and “boooom” Triple H’s musical success. Flair didn’t know this was going to happen, so he seemed confused. Hunter gave him a hug and Flair burst into tears. “I was doing very well until you came here.” Helmsley said “if you think these people and I am the only person who wants to thank Ric, then you are wrong … my fingers are starting to get hard.” He waved his finger and the Riders came out! Followed by a host of major legends in Ric Flair’s career, along with the younger stars and ultimately the entire locker room.

Every fighter under contract, fan in the arena and spectator at home (at least I did) chanted “thank you Ric.” What an amazing feeling, it made me feel part of a great family of fighters. We don’t need anyone else. This for us people who understand and respect the business and we want to thank the man who made the business what it is!

THANK YOU RIC FLAIR – Dusty called you a national treasure, well I’m from the UK and I call you an international treasure. Your legacy will live on in all the stars you helped and in all the fan DVD collections.

What’s next for Flair? Well, he won’t be in the ring again, unless it’s with his son Reid, who is currently in development. He’s still under contract for several years, so there’s a chance he’s an on-air character, although I don’t think he’ll make his departure cheaper by doing that. From now on, I have heard that he will dedicate himself to Public Relations and advocacy for the company, as well as helping his son train and run his own Ric Flair Finance company.

Anime movies are a real pleasure to watch. They combine all the elements of real life similar to a movie. However, the absence of people or objects from real life is what makes them so special and powerful. Like real movies, anime movies are similar in length and have a solid story to support playtime.

The film is directed by Toyoo Yashida, who also directed the first film of the Vampire Hunter D Serie.

I often hear from people who are trying to come up with the best strategies for dealing with their spouse during a marital separation. The goal is to make your spouse want to get back together and be willing to save the marriage. To that end, one suggestion that is often given is to “ignore your spouse” or use “reverse psychology” so that they are more than willing to come back.

I recently heard from a wife who said that she had read that she should “completely ignore” her husband while they were apart so that he would love her that much more. And I can see why this strategy seems attractive. Basically, the idea is that if it works, you don’t have to do much (except a good job as an actor) and he will do exactly what you expected with enthusiasm and will. But it is my experience that this strategy does not always work this way. I will discuss some of the risks of this strategy (and tell you one that I think works best) in the next article.

Why I think ignoring your spouse during separation is not always the best idea: First of all, I don’t know many people who can fully pull it off. Unless you’re an award-winning actress or actor, it can be very difficult to make this convincing. (And if your spouse notices this, they will quickly lose respect for you.) The truth is, your spouse probably knows you better (and can read you more accurately) than anyone else. It is highly unlikely that they will not realize this.

And even if they buy your act, do you really want your spouse to think that you care so little about them and your marriage that your response is to simply ignore them? I am in favor of using some strategy to win back your spouse during a separation, but taking a stance to represent something that is completely opposite of what you really feel (and what you really want) is, in my opinion, not only risky, but not the best. call.

There are also many risks associated with this strategy. If you choose to ignore your spouse, you hope they don’t feel so hurt or discouraged by this that they actually pursue you. Depending on your spouse’s personality and motivations, this may or may not work. But your spouse may feel hurt or frustrated and respond by trying to move on or see other people. And even if it works, your spouse may eventually harbor some resentment for being manipulated. This is not good for your marriage.

I agree that sometimes strategic planning is needed during a separation. Here’s a strategy that I think is better than ignoring your spouse: One of the main ideas behind ignoring your spouse is that by not being there constantly or by not being fully available to them, you will appear more attractive (and they will love you more) as a result. I’m completely on board with the mystery-making strategy and it really ended up working for me. But there is a big difference between creating mystery and completely ignoring the person you are trying to win back.

I think there is actually a delicate dance between being in touch and showing that you care without being constantly available or completely transparent. I advocate communicating and interacting with your spouse on a regular basis while you are apart. That being said, I think you need to be very deliberate and aware of the cards you are playing while doing this.

What I mean by this is that you always want your spouse to know that you care deeply about him and the marriage. (I think sometimes it’s okay for them to know that you would like to save the marriage, but respect that both of you must make that decision.) Yet at the same time, you also want to make it clear that you care enough. about keeping yourself busy and vibrant and not hanging on to your spouse’s every word or whim.

In fact, it can help your cause if your spouse wonders where you are or why he occasionally doesn’t answer your call on the first ring. Does this mean that you are ignoring them? Absolutely not. You are simply giving the impression that you are also living your own life to the best of your ability during the separation. This will generally make you appear more attractive than someone who is anxiously awaiting your spouse’s next call or text (and who is falling apart when he doesn’t come).

I think it’s perfectly fine to limit or schedule its availability just to make it look like it’s being handled well. However, you don’t want to take this to extremes. Doing so shows a lack of respect towards your spouse and is dishonest in a way that (at least in my opinion) the position is not. For me, there is a difference between a strategy that puts you in the best position and a strategy that is dishonest and downright risky.

During my breakup, leaving town and getting away for a while was a turning point that really made things better. But I did not do this in an attempt to ignore my husband. I did this because I wanted and needed the support of my family and friends. My husband knew where he was and would check with him from time to time. But the mystery and distance this created helped.

So while I think there is some validity in going back a bit and being very deliberate with your interactions during your breakup, I am not advocating becoming completely unavailable unless you simply don’t want to or don’t want to interact with your spouse at all. It doesn’t matter how they perceive it or react to this.

I understand that this strategy is probably one of many that has been suggested to you. And you will have to take your marriage and spouse into account when deciding how you want to play this. But it is my opinion that you always want to be true to your heart and not go to extremes or take great risks that could actually backfire if what you really want is to win back your spouse instead of alienating them.

The best hitters in the game use a variety of hitting drills to improve hand-eye coordination, bat speed, and power. These drills will have you or your players hit the ball more consistently and with more power, with the ability to hit shots more effectively. The result will be higher average production and better execution in just a week or two of practice.

1. Ball in cone or tee: Hand-eye coordination is the key to a good shot, in any game and at all levels. Improving your ability to match what your eyes see to the trajectory of your swing creates the type of contact that produces more line drives and, over time, more power. Hitting legend Ted Williams used to practice using a cue to hit bottle caps. Not a bad idea, but these exercises will do the trick too.

• Ball in a Cone – Place a traffic cone on the ground 3 feet away from a mat. Kneel, or have your players kneel, on the mat. Put balls in the cone and have the players focus on hitting a line drive. Hit 15 to 25 balls in each session, more if time permits; the more the better. The exercise emphasizes contact using only the arms and upper body, which is essential for hitting the ball consistently.

• T-Ball: Kids start t-ball for a reason: They learn to make contact, plain and simple. Since solid contact is the key to all good things when striking, contact exercises never go out of style. Professional, college, and top amateur teams continue to use batting tees to warm up and find the hitting tag, especially after layoffs. Get started hitting with a round of tee drills to emphasize ball control, with an added feature being a boost in confidence. When pitch speed is added, the improvement will be noticeable. When the game starts, a harder hit will lead to more base runners and more RBIs. VARIATIONS: Tee the inside, middle and outside of the plate to encourage batters to follow the pitch, so they learn to drive balls to all fields. Most hitters try to throw everything, and this will help break that habit.

2. Wiffle Ball: This drill emphasizes bat speed and a compact, powerful swing. Using a pitching machine or live pitcher, stand 20 feet in front of the plate and use waffle balls for added safety. Adjust the machine to about 40 mph or measure your pitch speed accordingly. Batters have to swing the bat quickly. The drill will expose swings that are too long, the kind of swings that keep pro players in the minors. On the plus side, it encourages increased bat speed to be able to move around the fields and a shorter, more compact swing that is the foundation of power.

3. Wait and explode: Many hitters develop a bad habit of starting their swing too early. The results are all bad. For example, the batter will often enter the field too early and then have to hold his upper body waiting for the ball. Time and hand-eye coordination are lost, and if contact is made, only the upper body is involved. The powerful movement of the legs is eliminated. The result is glitches, weak rolls, and lazy highs. This is how this exercise works. Have the batter stand in the box and teach him not to move until the ball leaves the pitcher’s hand. Keep it up until the hitter learns to be patient, reserving his energy until he can complete the swing with one powerful swing. Hitters with good contact skills but low power will start to hit the ball much harder with this drill.

Another way to encourage a “wait and explode” approach is to use tennis balls and bounce balls to the plate. The batter should not move a muscle until the ball bounces, 6 to 8 feet in front of plate. Patience is learned and hand-eye coordination is also improved. The result will be a short, compact and energetic swing.

4. The Barrier Drill: This drill will teach you good mechanics. Have the players stand behind their backs from a barrier, such as a net or rope, and take their cut. If they hit the barrier with the bat, they are swinging too long, unlocking the elbows before the shoulders are fully engaged. Point out what’s happening and see if they can make the correction, which will produce a compact and powerful cut.

5. Reward or race: There is nothing like the possibility of a little physical exercise for the players to focus. Using a pitching machine, or a reliable batting practice pitcher, feed each batter 15 pitches. On strikes only (make the swing on a bad pitch an out, regardless of whether it was hit or not), count well-hit balls versus misses or weak hits. If the dough has 8 or more good cuts, reward them in some way. If 8 or more bad changes occur, it’s time to run!

Murdered: Soul Suspect is an adventure game (yes, that genre you’ve almost forgotten!), And it really comes close to what true fans of the genre would enjoy. Naturally, it can hardly be compared to Syberia or The Longest Journey, but playing this one can give you a couple of hours of fun … if you’re not too picky.

In this game, you play Police Inspector Ronan O’Connor, who is … well, dead.

The plot and the main idea is great. Generally speaking, paying a ghost who can make things happen in the real world, the physical world, is amazing. Especially in an adventure game. The only other thing is that – Hello! – you don’t have like a zombie, like a Resident Evil, like a war, etc. events that happen to you. Whatever enemy you come across and have to “fight” is not actually there to kill you! Yeah, (SPOILER) you can just run away from them … All NPCs are kind of low carb, obviously, as they cover a really small space. Even if you defeat a demon in the same room where another one of them is, the second type will not pay attention to you.

The romantic drama – He has a wife named Julia, who has been the reason for his life changes. Therefore, his death makes you feel quite sad and you go into action with a lot less brains and a lot of aggression. This is also, I suppose, the main reason why we (playing as him) go to the first scene where we end up dead.

My opinion? I like this as much as I can; I mean … many of us need something tragic to happen in a person’s life, just so we can feel them close. I find romance useless for me, but for a game with the scopes and goals set by the producers, it’s obvious that this kind of thing must be there. What I liked (see the second sentence of this paragraph) is that they didn’t get her pregnant or turn him into a crying father figure.

The real drama: Salem is a big witch’s nest and hey, being a tough guy there can’t keep you safe from witchcraft, witch hunts, and everything that happened there in the past. You are even a more suitable victim to an influential enemy than a mere girl would be.

The twists and lines of the plot are finely incorporated into this game and it is easy for you to like it. The only thing you need to know when buying this game is that: It is an old school adventure game with a detective novel feel and a lot of cool and relaxed exploration and thinking time zones. This is not Far Cry, not Uncharted, not Resident Evil. However, it is not Aura or Myst either.

The gameplay on the other hand it is really basic and I love it! With the sole exception of the demons you need to eradicate, it’s all a simple first-person point-and-click adventure, but in a 3D world. You have hardly any reason to load up and make mistakes. However, the only problem related to the game is the lack of real puzzles. It looks like it was either too expensive (rather they made a 3D version of a sheriff-like police inspector in all his appeal, including cigarette and smoke … like a ghost) or too difficult for the Airtight team, but … yeah – a real adventure game needs a puzzle or two (at least) before it gets action-packed features.

Just so you know …

A review of the game from a fairly famous gaming website says: “The only way to get rid of Murdered’s really terrifying soul-sucking demons is to get immediately behind them, and the only way to get immediately behind them is to hide in the residue of the individual ghost souls, which are very close together and thus create a kind of teleportation system for Ronan. “

Here is the source of the quote (I would not advise you to click here, but being ethical ask me to link to the source).

Well, this is pretty bad. For a reason, since I already messed it up, you can run away from them. For another reason, you can hide in the walls. If you don’t come within their range of visibility when they’re spinning, you can just step off the wall and “exorcise” them from this world.

However, one thing you should know: once the ritual has not been performed correctly, these chills will follow you through walls and stairs until you are out of reach.

If the Jews do not take seriously his warnings about the impending occupation of Jerusalem by the EU and the would-be divine emperor of Europe polluting the Third Temple, the Temple of God will be desecrated by the son of perdition, the so-called Antichrist. However, it is precisely because it is the Temple of God that Satan and his slaves passionately covet it and have the evil eye in Jerusalem.

I totally disagree with the Roman Catholic cult (if you haven’t noticed), but I know that Catholics themselves believe that they will have a “false pope” (or whatever they call him). It seems that a “false pope” (although still pagan and part of the Babylonian Mystery religion) will promote, like the False Prophet, the strong leader of Europe, THE BEAST.

Why do I think such a Pope will be a plant in the already corrupt Vatican? Because after making the masses follow the leader, the Beast, performing signs and lying wonders like a sorcerer pope, after using and abusing the European kings to carry out their orders, the same powers will turn around and hate the kings Europeans.

Babylonian whore and burn her flesh and destroy Rome! Still The False Prophet is still at the side of the Beast!

Is it that when they move to Jerusalem and maybe even keeping the biblical Sabbath and holidays (such as the legitimate Church of God) to deceive the Jews, having destroyed Rome and appearing as good guys, and then brutally betray the Jews even as Roman Catholics were betrayed by such deceivers? Think about it.

Revelation 13: 13-17

13E did great and miraculous signs, even causing fire to descend from heaven to earth in the sight of men. 14Because of the signs that he was empowered to do on behalf of the first beast, he deceived the inhabitants of the earth. He ordered them to put an image in honor of the beast that was wounded by the sword and still lived. [Roman Empire]. It was given power to give breath to the image of the first beast, so that it could speak and cause all those who refused to worship the image to be killed. 16 He also forced everyone, small and large, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on the right hand or forehead, 17 so that no one could buy or sell if they did not have the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name.

18 This requires wisdom. If anyone has insight, calculate the number of the beast, because it is the number of man. His number is 666.

Revelation 17: 15-18

15Then the angel said to me: The waters that you saw, where the prostitute sits, are peoples, crowds, nations and languages. 16The beast and the ten horns that you saw will hate the prostitute. They will ruin her and leave her naked. ; they will eat your meat and burn it with fire. he rules over the kings of the earth. “

Revelation 19: 19-20

19 Then I saw the beast, the kings of the earth and their armies gathered together to wage war against the horse rider and his army. 20 Target the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet who had performed miraculous signs on his behalf. With these signs he had deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and worshiped his image. Both [still side by side even after Rome is destroyed!] They were thrown alive into the fiery lake of burning sulfur.

Too often perseverance, the great substitute for talent, is overlooked. Many people fail to achieve their goal, not because they are not talented, but because they are not disciplined. The wonderful news is that you can clearly be good at anything you put your mind to. It just won’t be easy or fast.

Do you believe in yourself? Are you willing to keep moving forward, even when the going gets tough? Do you feel that you deserve a better tomorrow? Can you stick with your goal long enough to be great?

You must realize that perseverance to put into work is what will separate you from others. Therefore, you must see yourself right now as malleable, capable of becoming whatever you want to be. And if you can find within yourself the discipline to stay long enough, you can really become extraordinary.

Everyone looks at a person with innate talent as if they have something magical. They want to be like them. But this gift is not something that is often beneficial because no matter what talent or gift someone has, it is only the beginning.

“Perseverance is a great substitute for talent.” – Steve Martin

Perseverance and talent

Even if someone has the talent or gets an early victory; And that! If that person leaves you, you have more perseverance, more courage, work harder than them; then you will get over them in a long enough time. Determination is a great substitute for becoming an expert.

And the only thing I can guarantee is that the talent can be surpassed by someone else. So unless you become great for your heart and soul, someone else will. When you don’t take days off, but rather dedicate yourself to it as if your life depended on it; You are on your way. Only when you act like this do you have a chance to achieve greatness.

“The pressure can break pipes, but it can also produce diamonds.” – Robert Horry

Therefore, you must want things to be difficult and not seek the easy life. Also, you can’t wait, wait, or pray that you will discover some hidden talent within you that will make things easier for you. It sounds crazy, but instead go the hard way and keep perseverance on your ally.

Have enough perseverance

By doing so, it will turn you into something great. Because when it’s easy, you don’t really work for it, you don’t push. Therefore, you are outdone by the other person, who has to give it his all. They are willing to give blood, sweat and tears to become what they want it to be.

Also, they are so angry and motivated that they were never given any talents or anything. And with that chip on their shoulders, they are determined to become whatever they set out to do. Remember ‘Rocky’. So whether you have the talent or not, the only thing that matters is: will you have enough perseverance?

“The world breaks everyone, and then many are stronger in the broken places.” – Ernest Hemingway

Overcoming barriers

But then why not all of them? It may depend on the strategies you use. There is nothing that is happening to you that you cannot overcome. If you turn inward, I’m sure you can find a reason to be persistent, overcome the barrier in your path, and put those pieces back together. I’ve done it so many times in my life, so you can too.

However, it is literally all up to you if you are going to sit around and wallow. ‘What happened’ happened and there is no way to retract it. But how you respond is a choice. Or you face adversity by falling apart, becoming weaker in the areas that were broken. Or you meet fire with fire tying and fixing the difficulty with perseverance until it becomes a source that literally makes you stronger.

And it is a choice that only you can make. But remember that if you complain, no one has the desire to help you. Yes, you may have many reasons to protest in your life or be upset about things that happened to you. But the sinister thing about excuses is that they are valid.

Learn to love yourself

There are millions of reasons why you may give up or not even try. And just for that fight that broke you, you should be able to sit back and cry. It is your right, so you have every reason to do so. And some people may not even think less of you.

But here’s the truth; As you get weaker or stronger in the places that were broken, you have a choice of how to react in the future. Talent or not, the great news is that the best thing you can do to have perseverance and be stronger is that you must love yourself.

And loving yourself is practice. For years, I thought it was a feeling I had when I achieve success or gain wealth. I thought that when I turned around one day, it would be like “There it is; the spark of love and joy for me.” But the reality is that this is not how it works.

Talent is no guarantee

Plus, it doesn’t matter how far you’ve come or what accomplishments you have in your review mirror. If you fall prey to that, your past will always be bigger than your future. You must realize that your future must always be bigger than your past.

So the hardest worker in the room is always going to beat the talented guy who doesn’t work hard. In the end, almost every time, perseverance always wins. Talent doesn’t guarantee you anything in this world. And the same goes for a good education.

And the world is littered with smart people who never accomplished anything significant. It’s full of talented people who never make it. And it’s full of young people with expensive education who are outmatched by high school dropouts.

Perseverance always beats talent

Talent will get you nowhere if you don’t work for it, adding perseverance and knowledge to it. It won’t get you anywhere if you don’t have a heart. And it’s nothing if you don’t have the guts. The one who is most hungry to reach the top will always arrive before the talented one.

And yes, maybe not right away, but in the end, determined people always succeed. Perseverance, courage, courage, and hard work are the ingredients that make you a winner. So if you dedicate yourself more, you will succeed better than anyone. Anyway, how can you beat the guy who will do whatever it takes?

It can not! Perseverance is a great substitute for talent. It is always best when the talent thinks it is too good to persevere and work. Yes, being talented can be a blessing, but it can also be a curse. It can make you think that you don’t need to work as hard as the other person. And that is often a mistake.

Perseverance, the great substitute

The reason for this is that the other person moves on. He’s on the hunt, ready to fight for his family, his legacy, everything he wants. So while someone talented is resting, you have to be crazy enough, work, persevere, think big, plan, visualize, believe, attack, move on, and find a way.

If there is no way, make your own way knowing that someone else’s talent doesn’t scare you. Instead, it propels you, it pushes you. Perseverance never lies and therefore your dream never dies. Most people give up on life because they come up with all kinds of excuses why they can’t.

They say they don’t have the proper education, they don’t have any talents or they don’t have the money. But if I have learned something valuable in my life, it is that excuses are for the weak. Many people are conditioned to believe that they are a product of their circumstances. They believe that if they are not born into wealth, they never will be. If they are not born great, they can never become great.

Last thought on talent and perseverance

But if you look, it won’t take you long to find massive success stories of individuals who created their success through seemingly impossible circumstances. There are stories everywhere of someone who came from little education, had no talent, just a relentless desire to succeed. And believe me when I tell you that you can achieve greatness out of nowhere.

So every setback, every failure he had is part of his legacy. It is never too late to start your own story. So, don’t let anything stop you from writing the rest. Don’t back down, win at all costs. You will do it because you have perseverance, which is a great substitute for talent. Now when will you start writing your own success story?

Which pair of epic sneakers holds the championship belt as the most expensive pair of Kobe Bryant sneakers? That is really a difficult question to answer. But it’s certainly a lot of fun to try too. Obviously, time plays a huge role in determining the most expensive pair of Kobe Bryant shoes. The price of the most expensive shoe now may not be as much as the price of a Kobe shoe in the past. So, let’s compare the most expensive shoe of today with the most expensive shoe of the past.

Because any pair of sneakers released as part of the Kobe line retails or retails for between $ 130 and $ 150, the most expensive pair is the result of two main factors, availability for the general public and the total amount released. As sneakerheads, these are two factors that we know all too well. Two factors that drive the price of a Kobe signature sneaker through the roof. If one of these shoes has a very limited release and is only available at specific retailers across the country, you better have a lot of time and money on your hands. You will have to travel and camp at one of these retailers to have any chance of getting that shoe. But it is also an incredible adventure!

Kobe VI “Grinch” – Currently, this is the most expensive shoe Nike has released as part of the Kobe series of basketball shoes. These gems will cost you between $ 350 and $ 400. The Kobe “Grinch” was released during the 2010 Christmas season. Kobe wore them in a game on Christmas Day last year on national television. In fact, that day several teammates were seen at the feet of celebrities like George López sitting next to the court in Los Angeles. The shoe consists of a snakeskin textured upper in a sweet apple green color that has a bright yellow accent. The midsole and outsole are also apple green. Cover it with red laces and you have a masterpiece. This shoe was extremely limited in numbers produced. Hence the high price.

Kobe V “Big Stage” – This is probably the most expensive Kobe shoe of the past. Released both at home and on the go, this epic sneaker sold for $ 450 at a time. Both the local and visiting editions feature a metallic gold Swoosh and heel along with sheer translucent soles. The home edition featured a white top, while the distance one featured a black top. Also, Kobe’s stats from the previous year were subtly integrated at the top. Made specifically for Kobe to wear during the 2010 NBA Finals, the only retailer to sell them was located in Los Angeles. Talk about limited availability! The shoe was also limited to 250 pairs of each color combination. Talk about limited release!

Limited availability and a small number of shoes produced will drive up the price of any pair of men’s basketball shoes. And the price of any product goes up. Nike basketball shoes are generally marketed this way. Trying to get the most expensive pair of Kobe Bryant shoes is just part of the pleasure and pain of being a sneaker fanatic.
