Damaging Self Talk
There is power in the tounge!
Think about that statement for just a moment.
Proverbs 15:1
A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger.
Now that the United States of America’s election is over I’ve heard and seen more anger and hatred that ever before. What is the point of it all?Running ones mouth, speaking of hate and violence is not what America was founded upon.
Martin Luther King Jr
was one of the most outspoken and influential people of his time . Are we as a nation forgetting the most important message he shared with the world ?
His speeches were not those of “go riot into the streets because you don’t like the outcome of a vote, go forth and beat each other up because you have different values and beliefs “
Oh I’m sure we have all heard or read his “I Have A Dream” speech. In The 60’s he was ridiculed by his peers for things he said and made fun of. It was the power of his words that began to change his life and the lives of those that followed him.
The I Have I Dream speech was his most famous; however there were other quotes which are fitting for today’s times.
I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality… I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word. Martin Luther King, Jr
These are just a few.
Damaging Words
You have power in your words.
The words we speak bring love, hate, healing, irreparable damage, illnesses, unforgiveness, and forgiveness.
When was the last time you yourself made a positive statement about yourself ?
Do you tell yourself these things everyday ?
I am strong ! I am beautiful!
I show love and receive love!
When we confess positive statements out of our mouth they come to pass. We may not see them come to forwichen right away. Years, months or days later we start to believe what we say. We stand a little taller, push our chest out a little more and walk with confidence knowing we are speaking positive things into the universe, which will come back to us.
Affirmations
Affirmations are one way to train your mind into positive thinking while speaking them out loud .
I found a great little gem on my Google search.

Are You Driving Traffic To Your Blog Or Sitting In A Traffic Jam?
I’ve been blogging for over three years now. It wasn’t until a year ago that I started to become more serious. Getting noticed was hard. Was it the content in my articles? Was it the boaring words putting potential new readers to sleep?
Pinpointing the problems wasn’t easy as a new blogger until I found a group called the Power Affiliate Club Becoming A PAC Expert Author has given me the opportunities to explore more topics, gain a better understanding of using certain techniques to gain more followers.
An article by PAC Founder and Expert Author Lesly Frederic, RN It’s Not Enough To Just Have A Blog brings things into focus for writing your blog. In it she writes;
You Already Have An Audience
Surround yourself with the audience you develop because they like you and LIKE your personality.
You Already Have An Audience
Surround yourself with the audience you develop because they like you and LIKE your personality.
I’ve learned alot from Lesly Frederic and the Power Affiliate Club authors and social media communities. Plugging into other blogging communities has changed my perspective on using long tail keywords as explained in this article by Robin Khokhar. Another blogger who is making a difference.
Plugging In
Plug yourself into other writing social media groups. I know I talk alot about PAC, I must because of know one spreads the word how can a community grow.
Another group is the Blogging Syndication Tribe on Facebook.
This is a closed group and you must ask to join.
In closing seek those who want to see you achieve success. Hang with like minded people. You’re not going to be liked by everyone. I’m not liked by everyone. That’s alright with me!
I’d rather attract traffic to my site with people seeking to be coached infamy areas then be the top and biggest thing on the internet.

Striking Up Conversations Form Business Alliances
Oh My Gosh! Here is it week number five of the PAC Blogging Carnival.
I have never had a problem talking to people. You could consider me being a social butterfly. I love to move around the room at a party or get together and meet and greet people. Connecting with people is fascinating to me . Finding out where they’re from, what they do, how much did she pay for those shoes all goes through my mind. Getting the first word in gives me an edge on building a trusting relationship, if even only for a few minutes.
Once I made up my mind to become a serious blogger I started making connections with other bloggers who shared the same values, provided their readers with integrity and honest articles.
One of my PAC fellow authors Barrie Evans writes about developing alliances and value with cooperation in business. Relationships help us to build a solid foundation in our business practices.
Abilities
Sometimes I myself forget that I too am able to obtain all of my goals. Meeting and connecting with the Power Affiliate Club has given me a new edge on blogging and learning from some of the best in the business.
For Example
Claudia Peevy is great with showing others attraction marketing. Check out her site I think you will be impressed.
Emi Koulev I really admire her style of writing. Recently she published her first book The Cake Decorating Series Of Sugarcraft is informative and gives great details into working with fondant and cake decorating.
Building these relationships has been fun and exciting for me. I am meeting new people from all walks of life. I haven’t met each one of the personally and who knows if I ever will, the one thing I can testify to is that because of building these alliances I am becoming a better communicator, writer and friend.
I cherish each and every person I meet along the way. Listening, smiling and taking advice as well as dishing it out. My journey is still on going and I am by far an expert on blogging. Continue to read on with me and I write away to new things.
