How to Become a Successful Salesman?
Every business in
the world has some certain unique features, which has to be learnt and
practiced a lot in order to be successful in an enterprise. For example,
a swimmer has to do practice regularly for hours in order to keep them
fit for competitions. Even though the swimmer has succeeded in number
of competition he has to work out regularly, everyday in order to defend
his position at the highest level.
During his training he should focus on the mistakes he had made in the past competitions, he should train and prepare himself in such a way that he shouldnt repeat the same mistakes in future. There is an analogy between the competitive sports and salesmanship. As like in sports salesperson has to master the art of selling the products of the enterprise to the customers.
The sales person himself should learn the fundamentals of selling and master them in order to get best results. The nature of sales personality depends on certain extent on heredity and environment.
An intelligent salesman would combine the study and actual practice of the fundamentals by analysis.
A good successful
salesman should posses some certain qualities in order to achieve success.
1. Sales personality
Sales personality is all about the sales man itself. Personality can be produced and improved by developing the qualities in the positive traits. A person may not have all essential qualities of a sales person but he has to strive in order to compensate the lacking.
The positive qualities to be developed, in order to increase and improve the salesmans personality such as kindness, courage, confidence, honesty, loyalty, good health, and cheerfulness.
All the sales person would not have all the positive qualities they might have some negative qualities such as fear, gloominess, cowardice etc.
These qualities should be neglected from the sales person. Habits once formed are always difficult to change. A person who has the capability to work hard will always work without any difficulties. So it is necessary for the salesperson to develop the positive traits which may be difficult at the beginning, and there by building a positive personality.
Some of the important aspects to be developed by the sales person to achieve success are:
(a) Physical traits
It includes health, breadth, posture, speech, and appearance. Without good health the sales person would not have the endurance to sell the product or achieve his targets. He may also be required to move about different places, which would be difficult for him, and as well as stand during the greater part of the day.
Offensive breadth must be avoided because it may repel the customers. It can be easily detected and controlled by the salesperson himself. It may be caused to defective teeth or physical disorders or, from stomach. Good posture considerably enhances the appearance and personality of the sale persons.
Good posture doesnt mean a straight and rigid posture. It means unnecessary tension of muscles should be avoided. Voice should be very expressive, pleasant and it should attract the customers a lot. The voice should not be high pitched, hoarse or monotonous. Neat and pleasing appearance is essential for a salesperson in any walk of life.
A good appearance of a sales person will give him confidence in presenting his arguments in a convincing manner without being distracted by fear of his own appearance. Appropriate way of dressing also plays a key role in appearance; it should be clean and fit well. The salesperson should know how to smile; a good natural smile would enhance his appearance.
(b) Mental Traits
Mental traits include accuracy, alertness, imagination, initiative, observation, and self-confidence etc. The salesman should be alert, ready to find out ways and means of serving the customers. Alertness is a part in which the sales person should inspire confidence of the customers. Customers normally would not like hurried salespersons as well a slow one.
It is one of the most important mental attributes, which should be developed by the salesperson.
If a salesman with imagination will have the capability to visualize the articles required by the customer, such a customer would be relieved and so grateful for suggestions and ideas given by the salesperson. The salesperson should be able to think and decide for himself instead of having to be told everything, he should be self-reliant. The important quality in a good salesperson is the ego drive, which makes him want to make the sale.
He must remain enthusiastic of the job. The salesperson should have the capability to take decisions for himself and assist the wavering customers into making his decisions by gentle means of questions and suggestions.
The salesperson should have the attribute of keen observation. A person who is a keen observer will immediately sort out the problems and find a solution as soon as possible. The salesman must be interested in his work and strive to learn all the duties of the different phases. He must pay a close attention to, the customers, the product he sells, and the enterprise he works for. Self-confidence springs from the knowledge. Therefore he should acquire thorough knowledge of the goods he sells, likely type of customers. The salesperson should have confidence in himself and products he sells to the customers.
(c) Social traits
The ability to make friends and to get along with the people in one of the most valuable assets. Social traits includes, ability to meet the public, the most important quality of a salesperson to meet the public and speak about the product he wants to sell them. He is also required to overcome considerable resistance, deal with the strangers in his selling activity and open up new territories.
The salesman should always be polite and generous to his work and to the customers. It deals, not to be late for appointments, addressing customers in a friendly way. Never losing temper, saying thank you and good-bye while leaving. All the workers should be cooperative help one another to make pleasant working conditions.
(d) Character traits
There are some important attributes in a persons character. No one can expect to be successful unless he follows some modal characteristics. It includes honesty and reliability, enthusiasm, industry and persistence.
2. Knowledge of goods
The salesperson should have the knowledge about the products he is selling. Sales person without technical knowledge about the product would be a danger to he customer. Naturally he cannot explain something prospective to the customers, which he himself doesnt understand .If the salesman has the knowledge about the product he would be able answer all the queries raised by the customers. Even if a single answer were not given clearly, the customer would doubt about the quality of the product. Besides by having the knowledge it will become easier to make the customer understand about the product.
The extent of the knowledge required of a salesman depends on whether he is in selling high cost products or low priced products. The salesperson should acquire information as to the policies behind the products as these are reflected in the products. Knowledge of the production methods can de used by the salesman to justify the cost of the product, he should also know about the law affecting the sales and selling, knowledge about the firm, knowledge about tariffs delivery conditions also. There are different methods to acquire knowledge about the products:
Ø Personal
Ø Reading books, trade journals.
Ø Consulting with the seniors.
Ø Studying advertisement.
Ø Reading sales manual.
Ø Meetings and conferences.
3. Importance buying motives
There are number of motives. The commonest motives are fear, profit, pride, comfort, fashion, health, and habit. A salesman selling life insurance may utilize the motive of love for the family, loyalty, therefore he should find out the fears involved in it. It may be death, fear of loss etc. Profit in this the salesman should make the two points clear to make money, save money. He should motivate the customers to buy the products he sell about the positive aspects and negative aspects which would provide a clear picture to the customer, whether this product would suite them or not. And by giving suggestions and ideas to the customers.

The ten of earth for me is a reminder to be grateful for all of the blessings that I have in the physical realm. It is a reminder to be grateful for my home, my family, my dogs, and all the things that I have been blessed with. It is also a good reminder that as Tosha Silver says, "It's not my money," because in reality it all comes from the source and it really doesn't belong to me. What I've been finding as I get deeper into a life of prosperity consciousness is that I'm a lot less fearful and life seems to flow. I know there are some that would say that it is easy for me to be grateful and let life flow because I have a lot of physical assets and that's true. However, there have also been times in my life when I've been broke and it seemed like the harder I held onto money the more it slipped through my fingers. When I was able to let go and trust Higher Power that I would be taken care of, life flowed.
The other piece of the ten of earth is that it is a connection to all who have gone before. I think sometimes those of us who have grown up without the best familial role models dislike cards connect us to our families. However, that is limited thinking as the reality is that our families are really all those who have gone before and we need to remember that our ancestors go back to those who we know and came remember. When I expand my view, I'm reminded that I can take guidance from my immediate ancestors, but also other role models. Frida Kahlo is one of my role models and when I look to my ancestors, I can look to her strength as a feminine role model.
My oracle card for the day was Taking Shelter which is all about pulling my energy inward and creating shelter within my own surroundings. It's also a pretty appropriate card to draw right now as we are all sheltering in place.

Instead they can't figure out how to communicate, so they shut down and numb themselves with the thought that what their feeling is normal. I know now that you can bury a feeling with all you've got, but it will find a course out into the light. Read more →

Ultimate Camp Resource - Camp Games, Camp Songs, Camp Skits. 21 Reasons To Quit Your Job And Become A Teacher In a recent article about happiness at work, Harvard professor Rosabeth Moss Kanter suggests that the happiest among us are those who are solving the toughest problems and "making a difference" in people's lives.
If contributing to the betterment of the world is indeed among the keys to happiness, then it's no wonder that the extraordinary teachers featured in "American Teacher: Heroes of the Classroom" [Welcome Books/Random House] express a deep sense of fulfillment and pleasure in the work that they do day in and day out. Against all odds, each of the fifty educators profiled is making a lasting positive impact on his or her students; the kind of impact that recasts futures, changes lives, and might just inspire the rest of us to consider a second career in education.

Just four days after a perfect 3-year checkup, Tanner was diagnosed with a Wilms Tumor – a type of kidney cancer. Two days later, Tanner was in surgery at Children's Hospital to remove his right kidney and grapefruit-sized tumor attached to it. The tumor was fragile as a water balloon and ruptured during surgery. But thankfully, the surgical team was able to remove all of the tumor and the cancerous cells from Tanner's abdomen. However, because Wilms tumor is fast-growing, it would need to be treated aggressively.
Tanner had two weeks to heal from his surgery before starting chemotherapy and radiation treatments. In all, Tanner had 13 treatments of radiation, for which he had to be put to sleep each day. At the same time, he also started 30-weeks of chemotherapy.
To date, Tanner's left kidney is functioning great, as if he had never lost his right kidney. About every 6 weeks, he has new scans to make sure there are no new growths. So far, Tanner has only had a couple of setbacks, when his counts were too low to receive treatment. He has always been a happy-go-lucky kid, always smiling and doing whatever he could to keep other people smiling. In spite of what he goes through – being sick, treatments, and trips to the clinic to have his counts checked – Tanner has stayed his happy, giggly self.

In an interview held recently, Wences Casares, the founder of Xapo, a Hong Kong-based bitcoin wallet service provider and a facilitator of a cold storage vault, spoke about Bitcoin and the factors responsible for it to succeed. He discussed the volatility involved in technology and cryptocurrencies and stated that Bitcoin could not replace national currencies whatsoever.
Wences, speaking to Bloomberg, said that cryptocurrencies had many advantages and it could change money just like how the internet changed the idea of information, but it could never replace fiat currency. He added:
"This idea that blockchain technology can be used to in any way change an asset that already holds its value from a central authority like medical insurance, banks or security settlements is completely nonsensical."
He further added that there was a "huge bubble" in altcoins and ICOs which worked towards replacing the existing system.
According to Casares, Bitcoin was at a stage which can be compared to the advent of internet. He stated that the initial stages of the internet ensured information could be moved efficiently, in real time and for free. He added:
"It did not take a lot of imagination to say that may change the idea of information forever."
He spoke about Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies and stated that there were three important use cases for the technology. Individuals were complicating the purpose of cryptocurrencies, but it was very simple according to him.
Wences spoke about blockchain technology and the only new feature the technology offered to the world was a "computer system which was sovereign or autonomous". This system would function by its own rules and was not responsible to answer to anyone.
Another advantage of cryptocurrencies was that it was censorship resistant, where no third-party could stop an individual from receiving or sending a transaction. The third important factor was that in the case of Bitcoin, there would never be more than a given number of Bitcoins in circulation.
The post Bitcoin [BTC] cannot replace national currency as it's completely nonsensical, says Wences Casares appeared first on AMBCrypto.

The growing threat of cyber war
Most people associate cyber-attacks with lone hackers or organised crime. But world leaders are increasingly concerned about the possibilities of cyber warfare. Critical infrastructure in finance, communications, energy, water, food and health is vulnerable to attack.
This StrategicRISK News Analysis looks at two recent developments: The new US Cyber Security Framework (CSF) and the EU's Cyber Security Directive. Will these provide enough security? Should European companies start to take the threat more seriously? And why does technological progress bring new cyber threats?

What a great day (2) 1st February 2015
The next part of my great day was being at Sarasota's "Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall" for a magnificent matinee concert given by the Sarasota Orchestra, under its Musical Director Anu Tali.
It was a truly magnificent concert which began with a work which was probably unknown to just about all the concert goers - in a full house no less -: "Cantus in Memory of Benjamin Britten" by the Estonian composer Arvo Pärt (b 1935). Pärt stopped composing when Soviet censors banned some of his music. He emerged from his silence in 1976 ... using a style he called "tintinnabuli" ... including his Cantus in memory of Britten - characterized by harmonic and rhythmic simplicity and steady tempos. (Italicised words extracted from yesterday's programme notes).
The piece indeed had rich harmonies which supported the regular tolling of a bell. It was good to hear something new.
After something new, we moved to something old, a stellar performance of Beethoven' s Piano Concerto No. 4. with guest pianist the world renowned Stephen Hough.
This concerto, unlike most, begins not with the orchestra, but with a few bars of solo piano. As Hough began my eyes grew misty. Of course I know the piece well, but to hear it in a live performance was "magical". It was like being with a dear friend with whom you have chatted by 'phone for many years, but now you are face to face. Same friend - deeper encounter!
And such a great pianist and orchestra.
After Intermission I met another old friend, Elgar's Enigma Variations. I first met this friend when I was in High School. I must have heard the work in recordings or on the wireless scores of times, but to see and hear it in performance has an entirely affect on one's soul. It is to hear notes that had been previously missed; it was to watch the disciplined skill of the musicians; it was to be undistracted by other sights and sounds.
Much of the magnificence of the concert grew out of the superb leadership of Anu Tali, in her first full season as Music Director of the Sarasota Orchestra.. Her conducting style was for the most part spare and restrained; but there were moments when she was calling the cellos and basses to even greater things by her energetic urgings in their direction. I also liked the moments when she "conducted" by facial expressions.
Anu Tali (born June 18, 1972) is an Estonian conductor. She and her twin sister Kadri Tali founded the Estonian-Finnish Symphony Orchestra in 1997, with Anu Tali as the orchestra's conductor and Kadri Tali the manager. (from Wikipedia).
We are most fortunate to have her in Sarasota.

Virtuoso SVP Global Member Partnerships David Kolner (l) and CEO Matthew Upchurch.
Wendy Davis, Owner, Zebrano Travel (l) and Kemi Wells, Director, Corporate & Leisure Sales for YVR's North South Travel.
Pouneh Hanafi, VP Marketing, Travel Edge and Betsy Goldberg, Senior Manager, Public Relations for Virtuoso.
David Kolner with Vision Travel Solutions Executive Vice President Stephanie Anevich.
When Expedia was founded in 1997 and Bill Gates famously said that consumers could throw away their travel agent's phone number, he forgot something. People like dealing with people.
Virtuoso CEO Matthew Upchurch never forgot that. He knew that the pool of travel agents would get smaller when retailers lost their "artificial monopoly" on airline reservations systems, but he never believed that savvy advice from well-travelled professionals would go out of style.
"People crave authentic human connection," Upchurch told a group of top Canadian Virtuoso members and media at a breakfast gathering in Toronto's Adelaide Hotel – formerly the Trump Hotel and soon to be the first St. Regis property in Canada. "That's especially powerful in travel."
As Upchurch and his team built Virtuoso into the massive powerhouse it is today – its members do over $30 billion a year in annual sales – they made the decision to focus on people with money who love to travel, and to answer their needs using people "with a reputation and track record of knowing how to serve the luxury traveller."
The rest is history. The invitation-only Virtuoso, which describes itself as "an agency network specializing in luxury and experiential travel," now has 1,000 agency locations in 45 countries –185 in Canada – and 17,500 travel advisors. Last year's Virtuoso Travel Week attracted 5,800 agents and suppliers to Las Vegas. And Upchurch sees no reason for growth to slow.
"Five years ago was the first time that one billion people travelled outside their country in one year. Now that number is 1.3 billion. IATA predicts a doubling of air passenger traffic in the next 20 years. People are living much longer – 80% of those who have lived to the age of 80 in human history are alive today, and they are healthy and travelling. I don't think there are many industries in the world with those growth prospects," Upchurch said.
The travel advisor renaissance is moving at a fast pace in the U.S., Upchurch says, with many millennials choosing travel as a career and many career-switchers entering the business too.
"The Canadian market is a little different because of large, dominant operators, but the discovery of FIT and bespoke travel is really starting to bubble up here as well."
Upchurch says two major technology advances helped make the travel advisor role easier and more desirable. "Mobility has made it possible for advisors to work from anywhere, so they're travelling the world, learning things to share with their clients, and getting their work done at the same time."
The Virtuoso CEO says he was shocked the first time he heard that a lawyer had quit their practice and become a travel advisor. "Now, I hear that and I just think, 'Oh, another one.' It's a more fun profession."
The Virtuoso team at the event, which included David Kolner, SVP Global Member Partnerships and Betsy Goldberg, Senior Manager, Public Relations, provided the audience with Canadian-specific consumer data gleaned from a data warehouse representing billions of dollars in travel transactions.
Among the findings:
- The trend of the year in Canada is 'adventure travel,' a variation from most other Virtuoso countries where multi-gen travel is the top trend.
- Of the top 10 summer destinations for affluent Canadian travellers, eight are in Europe. The top five are Italy, the UK, the U.S., France and Greece.
- The 'Hot 10' list of countries seeing the highest year-over-year growth are led by Ireland, Tanzania, Denmark, Croatia, Kenya, Austria, Hungary, Thailand, Ukraine and Poland. Ireland is the only country to make both top 10 lists for affluent Canadian travellers.
While a certain amount of affluence is obviously a prerequisite for luxury travel – the average daily hotel rate booked through Virtuoso's hotel partners is $770 – Upchurch says luxury means a lot more than gold taps.
"Backpackers and luxury travellers have a lot in common. They both want to experience the authenticity of a place. And luxury means other things too. For our clients, luxury means having someone really listen to you – and give you what you want."

She needs no introduction at all, whatsoever – so let's just simply get down to the topic.
Our in-house astro numerologist and celebrity on it's own, Bhavikk Sangghvi predicts what's in store for the ever-so gorgeous 'bachchan bahu' and 'soon-to-be-mom' on the eve of her 38th birthday.
"Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was born on 1st November, 1973 which makes her a Number 1 (Sun) person in numerology. Her sun sign is Scorpio (ruler Mars – Number 9) and her destiny number adds up to Number 5 (Mercury) which indicates a strong 'mangal' in her birth chart" explains Bhavikk.
"Ash is what she is ruled by – Number 1, the most powerful star in the solar system – the Sun. Without it, there is no existence. She is strong, aggressive and a complete go getter. She is so determined on what she wants in life that nothing and absolutely nothing can stop her from doing that. At times her approach could be a bit forceful, but she knows how to mellow it down when required. Her communication skills are so effective that she can make people spell bound by her speech" he explains further.
"Ash will now be entering her 39th year and what better way than to embrace 'motherhood' right at the start (in all probability it would be a baby girl); but unfortunately Number 3 (Jupiter) happens to be one of her weakest numbers and so she needs to be extra careful" warns Bhavikk.
"Thankfully, the upcoming year 2012 which adds up to Number 5 (Mercury) happens to be her 'destiny' number (as explained above) and would bring her some relief (read damage control) and act as a silver lining" predicts Bhavikk further.
"So basically, she should enjoy her maternity break and not enter in to new ventures or make any fresh investments as that may lead to losses due to a bad decision" advices Bhavikk on a serious note before signing off.

When it comes to the comfort of your home, the way in which it is heated and cooled is critical. Since this is the case, it's good to keep the HVAC system in a home working well. If you don't care for your HVAC, then your repair costs can mount while your living conditions deteriorate. A few tips have been gathered below. These tips should help you perform some of the most simple, yet mandatory maintenance on your HVAC system.
Before the summer you should clean out your condenser fan's blades and coils. Always turn the unit off before you do anything to it, including leaning. The outside condenser unit should be kept free of leaves and other debris.
Keep your outdoor units free of debris when you are mowing the lawn. Direct the clippings away from the equipment. This also applies to leaf blowing and any other yard work that results in debris.
Your outdoor HVAC units might suffer when your trees lose leaves. During this time of year, check and clear off the fan grill on your unit on a regular basis. The fan needs unobstructed air flow, and if debris is blocking this air flow, then your system could suffer.
You need to lubricate parts of your fan condenser. These ports have a metal covering. Sometimes it is rubber. Put 10 drops of lightweight, non-detergent SAE oil in each port. Be careful not to use too much.
When the weather cools down, turn your outdoor condenser off. Once the temperature drops into the 50s, the unit should no longer be on. This will maximize the life of your unit.

| 1.4°C Belfast
Kevin De Bruyne says his return to the Manchester City side has been "almost perfect".
The Belgian recently recovered from a knee injury that kept him for three months — and he has scored three in four games, including the winning goal against Paris Saint-Germain that sent City through to their first ever Champions League final.
De Bruyne admits the injury setback was difficult to handle, but says it could have been far worse.
"I didn't know what to expect, but the first four games I would say have been almost perfect," he said. "We won three of four games and went through to the semi-finals.
"It's the first time in five or six years I've been injured for that amount of time, so it was strange in the beginning to be on the sidelines — but you just have to keep your head up and work.
"In the end I was lucky with nine weeks — it could have been six months."
De Bruyne has become a key figure for City and the 24-year-old says much of that is to do with how well he has settled, both on and off the pitch, since his arrival in Manchester.
"It's when everything comes together. I feel good in the team, I feel happy outside of the pitch, everything is going fine so all these reasons give me a good feeling to play good and play on the pitch without other things in my head."

Focus and create! When you live and walk the path that is meant for you, the channels of creative inspiration open up further. Be yourself in all your power and the foundations of prosperity will unfold. You are meant to create and to show the beauty of a life that is connected with the energy of the Cosmic River. When the connection is made, the flow of that vibration is magnified and takes little effort to keep in movement. There is then no stopping, and the channels will run in deeper and deeper grooves of creativity, with no end to what can be expressed. Such subtlety of thought and feeling!
Do not stop or hold back. The difficulty lies only in getting out of the way. In the beginning, just to get things moving, there is no need to edit or judge what the mind may deem "acceptable" or what may or may not be considered "beautiful." Just let the energy flow. It will express in ways that will take your breath away. Unimaginable depths can be accessed. The secret is in the allowing.
A mind that is unencumbered will create resonant patterns that can shatter all walls of resistance. When you understand the mind as a broadcasting tool and less so as a thinking and memory-making tool, then you will have access to unimaginable powers of creation! Trying to think yourself out of problems has its limitations whereas the ability of the mind to create fields of energy is endless. Can you believe your mind is more powerful than the challenging circumstances that you find yourself in? There is no problem that is more powerful than your mind's ability to resolve. Let it do what it was meant to do!
Focus and practice! Create the vibratory fields that draw to you the things you envision. Let the sound of your intentions shake loose the foundations of all that obstructs.
Engage in all activities as a way to build what your soul longs for, using the power of repetition: writing, drawing, playing the guitar, drumming, walking, jogging, even washing dishes…let the energy revolve around the object of your desire. In this way everything you do becomes as a prayer. The magnetism created around your vision then coalesces into manifestation.
You believe yourself stuck in a dream of limitation, cut off from the flow of the Abundant Universe. There is more than enough for everyone! Awaken from the dream of thinking yourself cut off from the stream. Feel the power that is all around and within. You are floating in an ocean of infinite energy and yet believe yourself stuck on one level of existence. Unleash yourself! You are not cut off from the stream!
Use the power that is yours. It is so close! It can start with a simple act of imagination. Use the mind to create freedom rather than allowing it to be the instrument of bondage.
There are perceptible patterns in your environment that can be used in ways to dislodge any difficulty. For example, If your everyday existence seems to be a repeating loop of the same nightmare, it is because the patterns of behavior and thinking are so deeply cut into the fabric of your day to day existence. Delusion is strong because it is what you have come to accept and believe in. You wish to awaken but believe yourself stuck in the dream. And yet you know you are stuck but still seek avenues that -–ironically– will only prolong your stuckness. It is like seeking temporary relief through channels everyone else is fighting for, thinking it the "responsible" and "logical" thing to do. After all, in order to survive in the world, it seems to require a certain amount of money and "position." The "pattern" of the story you have fallen into is one that requires taking care and responsibility for a body that must be fed and cleansed, clothed and protected. This is just how it is in the dimension you find yourself "locked" into, and the currency for survival requires a certain amount of money and power. Until you are able to consciously rearrange the atoms of your existence, this is what you have to deal with. And yet…Do you think seeking Spirit–walking the path you are meant to walk–is not enough to uphold you, that you have to settle for something less than your spiritual dreams?
You already know the way to freedom! There is no need to compromise your desire for Truth and Spirit in order to survive in the world. Your lesson is one of manifesting Spirit on the earthly plane. Again, the lessons of feeling the pattern of "stuckness" is a powerful voice, reminding you to take action and to get energy moving with the intention of manifesting the gifts that are yours. When you focus upon the limitations of the worldly mindset, then of course the mind comes to a point of blockage, because the world is not something that can be "figured" out. You can learn to adjust to its laws and limitations, but what you are seeking is about bridging the seemingly wide gap between what you envision for your life and the rock-hard walls of the world. Use the pattern of "stuckness" as a reminder to act, to create and move forward no matter how many voices of the mind cry out for you to give up and walk the path that the world commands of you.
The patterns are all around, in nature and in the silence within. There is no "logical" answer to the problems of the world; there is only the voice within that calls you to continue following the trail of your heart, even if it takes you through some dark and forbidding places. Listen, observe, be still and allow your awareness and energy to expand and create a different and more powerful pattern of existence that changes the iron-like grid of your present experience.

Our Core Values:
Our mission and vision is accomplished by keeping these values:
1. Seeking God at all times- There has never been a man who has sought God and not found him. The void can be filled with other things but only God can satisfy mans inner need. We believe this is accomplished through times of prayer individually and corporately.
2. Worship as a lifestyle- Worship is more than a song it is a way of life. We believe mankind was created to commune with God. We seek to worship him alone, with reverence and humility, and yet with child-like faith. This is an everyday way of life!
3. God's word as authority- The word of God is our final authority and our lives are molded and shaped around it. It calls us to a faith-filled, obedient, and godly lifestyle.
4. Equipping the saints through the five-fold ministry- The saints are matured through the gifts Christ gave to the church. Ephesians 4:11 calls those in ministry into accountability to adjust, repair, and equip the saints for the work of the ministry.
5. Unity of the church body & Loving one another- Christ's multi-faceted body is to be earnestly sought and unselfishly served, so that this value for which Jesus prayed may find its answer in our attitudes and our love for one another which the world will see.
6. Spirit-filled witness and service- The ministry of the church is to be conveyed through believers at every age level, social status and marital state. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, the gifts of the Spirit, the word of God and their love for Christ and the lost.
7. Spirit of giving and stewardship- To live is to give- in tithes, offerings, and all of life's resources. We steward what we have been given. Tithes, gifts, and finances are from God's hand, and yet are our own to obediently distribute.

Piriapolis & Montevideo, Uruguay
Emmaus International is a movement, in other words a gathering of people united by our struggles and hopes for tomorrow. We need to meet regularly in order to bring our movement to life.
Organised every four years, the Emmaus International World Assembly (or General Assembly) gathers representatives from all member organisations throughout the world. It's a high point in the democratic life of the movement, but it's also an opportunity to meet and rally around our struggles.
During this assembly, the Chair of our movement is elected for a 4-year mandate. We also take stock of the initiatives put in place during the previous mandate and decide on the guidelines for the following four years. Workshops and meetings are organised to enable participants to discuss the battles that they wage in their countries, to become inspired by each other and to work closer together on our struggles to develop a global political voice.
Article 16 of the Statutes: "The General Assembly is the highest body of Emmaus International and has full powers and responsibilities so that it can realise its aims and its objectives within the framework of the statutes, of the Manifesto and of any policies and decisions it may adopt."
This World Assembly will be the first one held in South America, a land of social fights and struggles, which we will join for our day of action in Montevideo. The launch of Emmaus International's 1st Global Report on the causes of poverty will also be a key moment.

Nothing to add of value here, but as someone in a similar boat to Ulfy, I just want to say thank you all so much for being so generous with your information and your personal stories. It's been so valuable and reaffirming for me, and I am really hopeful my kiddo will feel the same way

But it was a flop for us.
I decided to hit her main subjects for second grade. Math, spelling, science, reading, writing, critical thinking, ect. and pulled in books from Build Your Library and Torchlight. In the meantime, I was using Blossom and Root Volumes 1 and 2 with my younger kiddo (she's 4.)
I realized that my older kiddo was pulling in more and more to see what her sister was doing and working more and more with her.
Next year, I will have one doing Blossom and Root K with Build Your Library K and the other doing Blossom and Root Level 3, along with Build Your Library Level 3. Blossom and Root will be our main curriculum and I will pull in parts of Build Your Library, along with math, reading and writing for the older one.
We school year round, so working with two curriculum (one main and one we pick and choose from) works really well with our timeline.
We got started on our path with a LOT of trial and error. I call my 8 year old my guinea pig child. We never planned to homeschool and yet here we are!
We tried Five in a Row (good, but not a long term fit for us) Build Your Library, Torchlight and Blossom and Root. What works one year, may not the next. What works for one child, may not the other.
I try to keep things moving forward, but interesting and engaging. I have one that loves to learn and will sit for hours, while the other would rather be doing art, singing, dancing, dressing up and doing her own thing.

This post is brought to you by Invictus MD (OTC: IVITF) (TSXV: IMH).
Right now we're in an exciting time for investors who are interested in the cannabis industry. Business is booming, new opportunities are emerging every day, and smart investors who are getting in now are positioning themselves for massive long-term rewards.
This being the case, many investors are considering their options and trying to find the best way to get in on the action. Depending on your goals, the smart bet might be to get involved with a Canadian cannabis limited partnership, or "LP".
What Is an LP?
In case you're not familiar, an LP is different from a general partnership in that investors do not get involved with the day to day operation of the company. As the name would suggest, their involvement is relatively limited.
There are several reasons why you would benefit from an LP in the long run:
Reduced commitment
Perhaps the largest benefit involves effort and time commitment. With an LP, you don't have to get involved with the general operation of the business. This is a big advantage when you consider the complexities of the rapidly changing cannabis industry.
For example, when you join in an LP with a company like Invictus MD (OTC: IVITF) (TSXV: IMH), you can allow their experts in the intricacies of cannabis legality, cultivation, and distribution handle the actual operation of the company, while you get to sit back and watch the industry grow and the money roll in.
Tax benefits
There are a variety of potential tax benefits to an LP investment. For example, limited partners don't have to participate in running the company, yet they share in its profits and losses advantages. So take in more, write off more, and get taxed less.
Limited liability
In a general partnership, you're all-in, and any property or money contributed becomes an asset to the whole company. With an LP, on the other hand, your liability for the partnership's debt is limited to what you put in. So an LP keeps you better protected in the unfortunate event that the business doesn't work out.
Ease of turnover
With a general partnership, the exit of a partner can be a huge headache to everyone who remains. But limited partners can leave without too much fuss. This is a huge benefit if you're looking for long-term gains. Other partners will come and go, but you'll be positioned to ride it out come what may.
Bottom line – a Canadian cannabis LP is an outstanding opportunity for any investor looking for long-term returns. It allows you to get involved with the cannabis business without having to be too involved, and it provides an array of tax and business benefits.
Essentially, a limited partner allows you to engage in a rewarding investment without dealing with a lot of the operational, legal, and tax implications that go into more complex business arrangements. An LP even involves less paperwork than a general partnership or the formation of a corporation.
All of that translates into more returns for less effort as the years go by.

A Turkish plane heading for Istanbul from northern Cyprus was hijacked on Saturday, but the hijackers gave themselves up and released all hostages five hours after forcing the plane to land in Turkey.
CEO of Atlas Jet airline Tuncay Doganer confirmed that the hijack of the passenger plane, which was bringing 136 passengers from northern Cyprus's Ercan airport, had come to an end.
The identity of the hijackers was still unclear: the transport minister of Turkish-backed breakaway northern Cyprus, Salih Usar, said they were two Iranians protesting against the United States. But Turkey's Cihan news agency reported one was Palestinian and the other Turkish.
Soon after the plane was forced to land for refuelling — as it did not have enough fuel to go to Tehran as the hijackers wanted — most of the passengers were either released or broke out through emergency exits.
The pilots also left, but four passengers and two crew members had remained on board as negotiations took place.
Cyprus, a major tourist destination, is divided between the internationally recognised government in the south and an enclave in the north recognised only by Ankara.
Plane hijacks and bomb threats are not uncommon in Turkey, where a number of radical groups ranging from Kurdish separatists to far-left militants operate. In the past year or so, several incidents have been resolved without any passengers being harmed.

Thursday I received a call from Cindi, an APR realtor who's selling a Los Altos house not too far from me that has bees on the property. Since I was close by I swung by on my way to my parent's place to check them out. When I arrived Cindi was busy but I was able to find the bees. They are living inside an old telephone pole. And here's where the saga begins. 🙂
After I snapped this picture I briefly chatted with the neighbor who said it would be good to get rid of the bees. Then Cindy showed up and I told her it's PG&E's pole, I cannot touch it unless we have their permission. And then all of the sudden a neighbor on the street walks over who gave my contact to Cindi the realtor and started talking to Cindi. Then someone jumps out of a BMW and shouts my name and runs towards me, it was Emily. That one neighbor actually got my contact through Emily, who lives around the block who bought honey from me in the past and just in the afternoon I visited her house because she's interested in beekeeping. So there was a lot of this and that going on but we ended up with Cindi going back to the seller to see what should be done.
At night I contacted the homeowner who I actually picked up some old paint from just the other day. Found out from her that the bees have been there for 10 years!!! Some neighbor actually sprayed the bees once but of course the bees survived. The homeowner is very protective of the bee colony and convinced PG&E not to remove the old pole but to cut it short and let the bees live in there. Now they are moving and we all hope the new homeowners will not destroy the hive, or at least contact me to see what we can save before destroying.

Metric prefixes words Explained
Some you will be familiar with others not so, here we explain then all with examples of use.
Yotta is the largest unit prefix in the International System of Units (SI), denoting a factor of 1024 or1000000000000000000000000. It has the unit symbol Y.
The prefix name is derived from the Greek οκτώ (októ), meaning eight, because it is equal to 10008. It was added to the SI in 1991.
Before the official adoption of the yotta prefix, the multiple was also known as otta.
Usage examples:
- The mass of the Earth is 5973.6 Yg or 5.9736 Zt.
- The mass of the oceans is about 1.4 Yg.
- The mass of the Moon is approximately 73.49 Yg.
- The total power output of the Sun is approximately 385 YW.
- The observable universe is estimated to be 880 Ym in diameter.
- One yottabyte is a unit of information or computer storage equal to one septillion bytes
Zetta is a unit prefix in the metric system denoting a factor of 1021 or 1000000000000000000000. The prefix was added to the International System of Units (SI) in 1991 and has the symbol Z.
Zeta is evocative of the French numeral sept, meaning seven. Therefore it was used to denote the seventh power of 1000.
A prefix of the same value, hepta, was informally introduced a few years before the promulgation of zetta. It was formed from the Greek ἑπτά, (hepta), also meaning seven. Hepta never received official sanction and is obsolete. Zeta (Ζήτα) is the 7th letter of the Greek alphabet.
- The mass of Earth's atmosphere is approximately 5 zettagrams (Zg).
- The volume of seawater in the Earth's oceans is approximately 1.369 zettalitres (ZL).
- Avogadro's constant is 602.2 zetta mol−1.
- A zettabyte is a quantity of information or information storage capacity equal to 1021 bytes or 1,000 exabytes
Exa is a unit prefix in the metric system denoting 1018 or 1000000000000000000. It was added to the International System of Units (SI) in 1975, and has the unit symbol E.
Exa comes from the Greek ἕξ, used as a prefix ἑξά-, meaning six (like hexa-), because it is equal to 10006.
- Multiplying the 10240 megabytes of storage each Gmail user has (as of April 2012) with the estimated 260 million Gmail users, the total storage needed for Gmail is more than an exabyte (not considering backups and how Google might compress the stored data).
- 1 EeV = 1018 electronvolts = 0.1602 joule
- 1 exasecond is approximately 32 billion years
- 1 exametre is approximately 110 light years
- 0.43 Es ≈ the approximate age of the Universe
- 1.6 Em — 172 ± 12.5 light years — Diameter of Omega Centauri (one of the largest known globular clusters, perhaps containing over a million stars)
Peta is a unit prefix in the metric system denoting multiplication by 1015 (1000000000000000). It was adopted in the International System of Units in 1975, and has the symbol P.
Peta is derived from the Greek πέντε, meaning "five". It denotes the fifth power of 1000 (10005). It is similar to the prefix penta ("five"), but without the letter n (on the analogy of the prefix tera (from the Greek for "monster") for 10004 looking like tetra- ("four") with a letter missing).
- 1 petametre = 1015 metres
- 1 petasecond = 1015 seconds
- 1 petabyte = 1015 bytes
- the mass–energy equivalence is 89.9 PJ/kg
- 1 light-year = 9.461 Pm
Tera is a unit prefix in the metric system denoting multiplication by 1012 or 1000000000000. It has the symbol T. Tera is derived from Ancient Greek τέρας (teras), meaning "monster". The prefix tera was confirmed for use in the SI in 1960.
Giga (/ˈɡɪɡə/ or /ˈdʒɪɡə/) is a unit prefix in the metric system denoting a factor of a (short-form) billion (109 or 1000000000). It has the symbol G.
Giga is derived from the Greek γίγας, meaning 'giant'. The Oxford English Dictionary reports the earliest written use of giga in this sense to be in the Reports of the IUPAC 14th Conference in 1947: "The following prefixes to abbreviations for the names of units should be used: G giga 109×".
When referring to information units in computing, such as gigabit or gigabyte, giga may sometimes mean 1073741824 (230), although such use is contrary to standards and has been discouraged by the standards organizations.The binary prefix gibi has been adopted for 230, while reserving giga exclusively for the metric definition.
In English, the initial g of giga can be pronounced /ɡ/ (a hard g as in giggle), or /dʒ/ (a soft g as in giant, which shares its Greek root).
This latter pronunciation was formalized within the United States in the 1960s and 1980s with the issue by the US National Bureau of Standards of pronunciation guides for the metric prefixes.A prominent example is found in the pronunciation ofgigawatts in the 1985 movie Back to the Future.
According to the American writer Kevin Self, a German committee member of the International Electrotechnical Commission proposed giga as a prefix for 109 in the 1920s, drawing on a verse by the humorous poet Christian Morgenstern that appeared in the third (1908) edition of Galgenlieder (Gallows Songs). This suggests that a hard German [ɡ] was originally intended as the pronunciation. Self was unable to ascertain at what point the alternative pronunciation came into occasional use, but claimed that as of 1995 it had died out.
In 1998, a poll by the phonetician John C. Wells found that 84% of Britons preferred the pronunciation of gigabyte starting with /ɡɪ/ (as in gig), 9% with /dʒɪ/ (as in jig), 6% with /ɡaɪ/ (guy), and 1% with /dʒaɪ/ (as in giant).
Common usage
- gigabyte—for instance, for hard disk capacity, 120 GB = 120000000000bytes; for file sizes 1 GB is often 1073741824 or 230 bytes, more properly termed a gibibyte (GiB) to eliminate ambiguity. The difference is rooted in base 10 and base 2 enumeration, and is also the reason why hard drives advertised as a certain capacity have less than that capacity when installed (as hard drives are advertised in gigabytes or terabytes (base 10) whereas computers format data in gibibytes or tebibytes (base 2, powers of 2). See Hard disk units of storage capacity.
- gigahertz—clock rate of a CPU, for instance, 3 GHz = 3000000000Hz
- gigabit—bandwidth of a network link, for instance, 1 Gbit/s = 1000000000bit/s.
- gigayear or gigaannum—one billion (109) years, sometimes abbreviated Gyr, but the preferred usage is Ga.
Mega is a unit prefix in the metric system denoting a factor of one million (106 or 1000000). It was confirmed for use in the International System of Units (SI) in 1960. Mega comes from the Greek μέγας, meaning great.
Other common examples of usage
- megapixel - 1 million pixels in a digital camera
- one megatonne (of TNT) (a unit often used in measuring the explosive power of nuclear weapons) is the approximate energy released on igniting one million tonnes of TNT.
- megahertz — frequency of electromagnetic radiation for radio and television broadcasting, GSM, etc. 1 MHz = 1,000,000 Hz.
When units occur in exponentiation, such as in square and cubic forms, any size prefix is considered part of the unit, and thus included in the exponentiation.
- 1 Mm2 means one square megametre or the size of a square of 1000000m by 1000000m or 1012m2, and not1000000square metres (106 m2).
- 1 Mm3 means one cubic megametre or the size of a cube of 1000000m by 1000000m by 1000000m or 1018 m3, and not1000000cubic metres (106 m3)
In computing, mega may sometimes denote 1,048,576 (220) of information units (example: a megabyte, a megaword), but denotes 1000000 (106) units of other quantities, for example, transfer rates: 1megabit/s = 1000000bit/s. The prefix mebi has been suggested as a prefix for 220 to avoid ambiguity.
kilo is a unit prefix in the metric system denoting multiplication by one thousand. It has been used in the International System of Units where it has the unit symbol k, in lower case.
The prefix kilo is derived from the Greek word χίλιοι (chilioi), meaning "thousand". It was originally adopted by Antoine Lavoisier's research group in 1795, and introduced into the metric system in France with its establishment in 1799.
- one kilogram is 1000 grams
- one kilometer is 1000 metres
- one kilojoule is 1000 joules
- one kilobaud is 1000 bauds
- one kilobit is 1000 bits
- one kilobyte is 1000 bytes.
A second definition has been in common use in some fields of computer science and information technology, which is, however, inconsistent with the SI. It uses kilo as meaning 210 = 1024, because of the mathematical coincidence that 210 is approximately 103. The NIST comments on this confusion: "Faced with this reality, the IEEE Standards Board decided that IEEE standards will use the conventional, internationally adopted, definitions of the SI prefixes."
- one kilohertz is 1000 hertz
When units occur in exponentiation, such as in square and cubic forms, any multiplier prefix is considered part of the unit, and thus included in the exponentiation.
- 1 km2 means one square kilometre or the area of a square of 1000 m by 1000 m or 106 m2.
- 1 km3 means one cubic kilometre or the volume of a cube of 1000 m by 1000 m by 1000 m or 109 m3.
Hecto or hecta is a unit prefix in the metric system denoting a factor of one hundred. It was adopted as a multiplier in 1795, and comes from the Greek ἑκατόν hekaton, meaning hundred. Its unit symbol in the International System of Units (SI) is the lower case letter h.
It is rarely used, except in certain specific applications:
- hectopascal (hPa), in meteorology, for atmospheric pressure, the modern equivalent of the traditional millibar.
- hectolitre (hl or hL), in agriculture, for liquids (notably wine and milk) and bulk commodities (e.g. grain).
- hectogram (hg), in agronomy, for quantities of animal feed (hectogram/animal) and for measures of agricultural productivity (hectogram/hectare); also used in Italy abbreviated as etto, and in Canada and New Zealand simply as 100 g, for retail sale of cold cuts and meat.
- hectometre (hm), in radio astronomy, occasionally used to indicate a radio band by wavelength
- hectare (ha), in surveying, as a measure of land area equal to 10,000 m2 or one square hectometre (100 ares)
Deca- or deka- (symbol da) is a prefix in the metric system, also a numerical prefix, denoting a factor of ten. The term is derived from the Greek δέκα meaning "ten". Its symbol is the only SI prefix that uses more than one character.
The prefix was a part of the original metric system in 1795. It is not in very common usage, although the decapascal is occasionally used by audiologists. The decanewton is also encountered occasionally, probably because it is an SI approximation of the kilogram-force. Its use is more common in Central Europe: in German, Czech, Slovak and Hungarian, deca is common (and always means decagram).
Before the symbol was standardized as da with the introduction of the International System of Units in 1960, various other symbols were more common, such as "dk", "D", and "Da".
- 1 decametre = 10 metres
- 1 decalitre = 10 litres
- 1 decare = 10 ares
Deci (symbol d) is a prefix in the metric system denoting a factor of one tenth. Adopted in 1795, the prefix comes from the Latindecimus, meaning tenth. Its most frequent use is in the non-SI unit, the decibel, used to measure sound intensity (relative to a reference) and many other ratios.
Centi (symbol c) is a prefix in the metric system denoting a factor of one hundredth. Adopted in 1795, the prefix comes from the Latin centum, meaning hundred. It is mainly used with the metre to express lengths in centimetres, a common unit of length.
Milli (symbol m) is a prefix in the metric system denoting a factor of one thousandth (10−3). Adopted in 1795, the prefix comes from the Latin mille, meaning one thousand (the plural is milia).
Micro (µ) is a prefix in the metric system denoting a factor of 10-6 (one millionth).Confirmed in 1960, the prefix comes from the Greek μικρός (mikrós), meaning "small".
The symbol for the prefix comes from the Greek letter μ (mu). It is the only SI prefix which uses a character not from the Latin alphabet.
Symbol encoding in character sets
For historical reasons, there are two different characters in Unicode, which appear slightly different in some fonts. The micro sign (µ) is encoded in the "Latin-1 Supplement" range identical to ISO/IEC 8859-1 (since 1985), at
U+00B5 (Unicode 1.0, 1991). The Greek letter (μ) is encoded in the Greek range at
U+03BC. In circumstances in which only the Latin alphabet is available, the prefix can (unofficially) be represented using the letter u as in um for µm, or uF for µF.
In pharmacy, nursing, and other health care fields, most especially in hospital environments, the standard symbol for microgram, "µg", is deprecated because of the risk of misdose via the misreading of poor handwriting. The two alternatives are to abbreviate as "mcg" or to write out "microgram" in full, the latter being best practice (see List of abbreviations used in medical prescriptions). In physical sciences academia, "µg" remains the sole official abbreviation
Nano- (symbol n) is a prefix meaning a billionth. Used primarily in the metric system, this prefix denotes a factor of 10−9 or0.000000001. It is frequently encountered in science and electronics for prefixing units of time and length, such as 29 nanoseconds (symbol ns), 100 nanometres (nm) or in the case of electrical capacitance, 100 nanofarads (nf). The prefix is derived from the Greek νᾶνος, meaning "dwarf", and was officially confirmed as standard in 1960.
In the United States, the use of the nano prefix for the farad unit of electrical capacitance is uncommon; capacitors of that size are more often expressed in terms of a small fraction of a microfarad or a large number of picofarads.
When used as a prefix for something other than a unit of measure, as in "nanoscience", nano means relating to nanotechnology, or on a scale of nanometres.
Pico- (symbol p) is a prefix in the metric system denoting a factor of 10−12 or 0.000000000001.
Derived from the Italian piccolo, meaning small, this was one of the original 12 prefixes defined in 1960 when the International System of Units was established.
Femto- (symbol f) is a prefix in the metric system denoting a factor of 10−15 or 0.000000000000001. Adopted by the 11thConférence Générale des Poids et Mesures, it was added in 1964 to the SI.It is derived from the Danish word femten, meaning "fifteen".
Example of use:
- a proton has a diameter of about 1.6 to 1.7 femtometres.
The femtometre shares the unit symbol (fm) with the older non-SI unit fermi, to which it is equivalent. The fermi, named in honour of Enrico Fermi, is often encountered in nuclear physics.
Atto- (symbol a) is a prefix in the metric system denoting a factor of 10−18 or 0.000000000000000001.
The unit multiple was adopted at the 12th Conférence Générale des Poids et Mesures (CGPM) in Resolution 8. It is derived from the Danish word atten, meaning "eighteen".
Zepto- (symbol z) is a prefix in the metric system denoting a factor of 10−21 or 0.000000000000000000001.
Adopted in 1991, it comes from the French sept or Latin septem, meaning "seven", since it is equal to 1000−7.
Examples of its use:
- The charge on one electron: 160.217657 zeptocoulombs (zC).
- One zeptomole (zmol) of substance contains 602 particles.
Yocto- (symbol y) is a prefix in the metric system denoting a factor of 10−24 or 0.000000000000000000000001.
It was adopted in 1991 by the General Conference on Weights and Measures. It comes from the Greek οκτώ, meaning "eight", because it is equal to 1000−8. As of 2012, yocto is the smallest official SI prefix.
It can be used to state a subatomic particle's mass, for example:
Rest mass of electron: 0.000911 yg Rest mass of proton: 1.6726 yg Rest mass of neutron: 1.6749 yg Atomic mass unit: 1.6605 yg
