Unsecured Loans at Affordable Rate Of Interest

People are usually mistaken by wrong notions that loans are not available without collateral. If you do not have property and looking for loans to meet your various demands. Then in such situation you can go for unsecured loans.

Unsecured loans are those which do not require any collateral for the approval of loans. The borrowers do not have to provide any collateral for the approval of the loan to the lenders. In unsecured loans borrower does not risk his property to the lenders against loans. As no collateral is provided by the borrower it does not mean that the lender cannot claim his money. The lender can claim his money through legal means.

In unsecured loans borrowers generally have to pay high rate of interest. As the lender earns more risk so he charge high rate of interest. But borrowers should take the advantage of the competitive rates provided by the lenders. The borrower should go for the reasonable interest rate provided by various lenders.

The repayment duration of unsecured loans is long term. The repayment duration stretches from 5-15 years. The borrower can choose his repayment period depending upon the loan amount and interest rate. Borrowers should keep in mind that the monthly repayment is less burdensome when the period is long.

Unsecured loans are intended for every sort of persons. People with County Court Judgements, defaults and bankrupt can also apply for the loans.

Unsecured loans are designed in a simple and easy way for every common mind. Approval becomes easy and less time consuming if the borrower submit proper documents with the application form.

For meeting miscellaneous purposes unsecured loans is an ideal choice. Buying car, renovation of house, debt consolidation, higher education, emergency financial crisis are some among them. Such loans are also suitable to meet emergency financial crisis.

THE Short List To Overcoming Low Self-Esteem

Extensive studies show that less than 15% of us have a sufficiently healthy level of self-esteem that allows us to live happy, prosperous, abundant, and harmonious lives.

The source of our low self-esteem is different for every person. Some of the common causes of deficient self-esteem levels are unproductive interpretations of well-intentioned educational experiences that we received during our childhood. While the damage may have occurred long ago for most of us, we continue to live an unproductive pattern in alignment with the faulty beliefs and associations that we made during the process whereby our self-esteem became diminished.

Remedy #1 for overcoming low self-esteem:

Opt out of the paradigm of perfectionism
The endless series of corrections and criticisms we’ve experienced throughout our lives has resulted in our need to seek perfection. The desire to be perfect combined with daily reminders that we are not is the number 1 source of low self-esteem! Reflect upon these questions for a moment: how often have you attained perfection in the past? How likely is it that you will ever be perfect? The answer in both cases is “almost never!” So if you demand perfection from yourself, you will disappoint yourself 99.9% of the time. This will set you up for a sense of diminished self-worth and a low self-image with subsequent low self-esteem.

In order to shift for us the paradigm of perfection, we first need to realize that we don’t need to be perfect at all. Being perfect is unattainable: nobody is perfect. It is much healthier and more satisfying to seek excellence instead. We can instead give up our obsession to attain perfection and do the best we can, knowing that life will train us daily with an unending series of opportunities to improve. Doing so will both dramatically reduce our stress levels and provide us with more time and energy to improve our performance and thus more likely be excellent in our actions. Stopping this attachment to perfection will be the single biggest step in overcoming low self-esteem and upgrading the quality of our lives in every possible way.

Remedy #2 for overcoming low self-esteem:

Learn to focus on the positive
Because so many of us tend to always strive for perfection, we tend to focus on what’s not working for us. This is a negative focus. Focusing on what’s not going well in your life will result in feelings of low self-esteem! Instead learn to focus on what is working well. Ask yourself “What have I done well today?” and “What’s missing for me that if put into place would support my excellence tomorrow?” The old adage is true: We tend to become what we think about most.

Focusing on the positive can be achieved by asking ourselves questions that will assist us with realizing our positive intentions.
Instead of asking yourself: “Why do I have low self-esteem?” ask: “What can I do to improve my self-esteem?” Instead of asking: “What’s not working perfectly in my life?” ask yourself: “What do I need to do to improve my life?”

In order to program yourself to ask these kinds of questions consistently, you’ll need to develop the habit through daily practice! A good exercise would be to ask a series of 5 to ten positive focusing questions right after waking up and right before going to bed at night. Invest in educational materials such as an audio program that will assist you to reprogram yourself by asking more productive questions. Keep a list with the most important questions to ask yourself with you in your wallet or purse. Now ask yourself these empowering, self-esteem boosting questions every moment that you have a little downtime. This could be during a lunch break, while waiting for an appointment, or while standing in line to check out at the grocery store.

Instilling the habit of asking yourself productive questions consistently will bring you one of the biggest distinctions in the pursuit of overcoming low self-esteem.

Remedy #3 for overcoming low self-esteem:

Live consistent with your values and beliefs.
In order to feel fully positive about yourself, you need to honor your most important values and life rules. If you master this, you master a skill that will enable you to replace your current low self-esteem with full confidence, a strong self-image, a rock solid sense of self-worth and remarkable self-esteem.

The process of determining your current values and beliefs can be an extensive process. This process requires extensive self-examination. However if you become clear about what your most important values and beliefs are with a firm commitment to honor them, you’ll position yourself to forever overcome low self-esteem. Although this journey can be challenging, it can also be fun. By starting this process you get to better know yourself. You’ll become more cognizant of and enjoy your positive traits and the characteristics that make you a truly special and unique individual. Low self-esteem is strongly influenced by the relationship between your values, beliefs and actions. Once your actions are fully congruent with your values and beliefs, you will be in integrity with what’s most important to you. Doing so will have a positive effect on how you see yourself, thus raising your self-esteem in the process.

Making Murano Glass Jewelry

Murano, a small island to the north of Venice, has been the center of the Venetian glass industry since 1291 when the Venetian Republic ordered the glassmakers to move their factories and workshops to this island. Murano glasswork has been renowned for centuries for its craftsmanship, styles and color. Murano glassmaking techniques and the consummate skill of its artisans - found their way into glass jewelry making.

The creation of Murano jewelry begins with the manufacture of colored glass canes, an activity which is (in itself) a significant challenge to any glassmaker since the chemical compounds involved in making colored glass are extremely sensitive and must be mixed with unerring accuracy. Aquamarine, for example, is achieved through the fusion of cobalt and copper during the manufacturing process; ruby red, on the other hand, requires a gold solution as a coloring agent for the glass. Other materials are used to create the different colors used in Murano jewelry.

Craftsmen use glass canes in creating their beadwork and jewelry, using various techniques.

Lampworking

Also known as the torch and mandrel technique, lampworking is one such technique which has been in use since the 1700s. Under this method, Murano glass tubes and canes are heated until they reach a molten or near-liquid state and wrapped around a metal rod until the desired shape is achieved. This is supplemented by the application of several layers of colored glass as well as gold or silver leaf, applied carefully in order to achieve the effect the artisan wants. The bead is then slowly cooled and removed from the rod, leaving a hole in the bead which is used for stringing it.

Chevron or Rosetta Beads

Murano is also known for Chevron or Rosetta beads which are created from a hollow glass cane and six layers of glass in different colors that have been defined since the 14th century - white, blue, white, brick red, white and finally, blue. After the colors have been layered, the beads are milled to produce a pattern consisting of 5 concentric, 12-pointed stars. The canes are then chopped into beads marked by a red, white and blue pattern.

Filigreed Beads

Filigreed Beads are actually blown-glass products. They are made by craftsmen by melting the glass canes. Afterwards, they are picked up with blowpipes through which air is pumped (usually using the glassmaker’s own impressive pair of lungs) to form spirals, stripes of colors and other shapes.

Sand Between my Toes

I love my life and most of what happens in it.

And while being involved in numerous projects, businesses and endeavours is, for the most part, fun and rewarding, it also takes it’s toll on my energy, my creative output and my ability to deal effectively with the abundance of ’stuff’ in my world.

Being the periodically stubborn, stupid, rest-is-over-rated, Alpha Male that I am, I can have a propensity to keep going until I fall down; not a great long-term strategy… for anything.
(Mmm… exhaustion perhaps).
I sometimes delude myself that I’m super-human… but incredibly, it seems I’m not.

Apparently, I need sleep and rest like normal people.
Who would’ve thought?

Johnnie and I filmed a video post yesterday afternoon and the man who never scripts anything and who rarely stumbles with his words (me) sounded like he’d had forty five beers and began learning English two weeks ago.

I chatted with the bald man about an hour ago on the phone and asked him if he had reviewed the recorded post from yesterday… and the conversation went like this:

“Did you take a look at what we shot yesterday?”
“Yep.”
“Did it come up okay?”
“Nup.”
“Really?”
“Yep.”
“And?”
“You sound exhausted, you mumbled three times, your eyes are blood shot and you look like crap.”

Sometimes I get so immersed into what I’m doing that I forget that I need to switch my brain off for a day or two and recharge my batteries.
Sometimes I do so much, for so long, that eventually my output starts to decrease and so does the quality of that output.
I do this now and then.
And I end up doing sixteen things badly…. rather than a few things well.

Sound familiar?
Or is it just me?

Sometimes I forget what it’s like to be alone, in silence, with no phone, no knocks on the door, no TV, no noise, no stress, no busy-ness and no people. My gym is open sixteen hours a day and while it’s a great environment with great people, it’s also mayhem at times… and incredibly draining.

Sometimes we need space.
And time alone.
And distance from our daily grind (perspective).
And sleep and rest.
And more time alone.
And sometimes we need to put everything on hold for a minute (or a day or a week).
And to step out of the busy-ness of our existence and into the serenity and tranquility of no timetable, no schedule, no pressure, no to-do list and no alarm clock.

For a while.

Imagine that; getting out of bed with nothing (in particular) to do.
Sometimes no plan is the best plan.
Sometimes ‘nothing’ is exactly what our body and mind need.

Too many high-achievers think (on some level) that they can function at a hundred miles an hour twenty-four-seven.
Indefinitely.
They think that (somehow) they’re different.

“The laws of science and medicine don’t apply to me.”
“I don’t need sleep… I’ve trained my mind and body to survive on eight minutes of REM sleep per day…. I’ve done a workshop on it.”

The last two months of my life have been crazy.
Crazier than usual.
And while I’m being completely honest… there’s a slim(!) chance that I’ve over-done it lately.
No!
The last three days I’ve had headaches (I never get headaches), red eyes and my brain won’t get out of second gear.

Clearly my body is smarter than me.
It’s telling me to take some time off and to give sleep a try.

Here’s a brief snapshot of my life at the moment.

*I don’t share the following to impress anyone (not that it’s impressive anyway) but rather to share with you the reality and normality of my life. I get lots of emails asking me about my daily existence and what I do (specifically) when I’m not working on craigharper.com…. well this will give you an idea.

As most of you know, Sam (my business partner in the kid’s gym) and I opened our new centre six weeks ago and the response has astounded even me.
We have been inundated with kids, grateful parents, schools… and even business people who want to buy a ‘Gecko’ franchise. We have had newspaper, radio and television coverage because the concept is a new and unique business in this area… and our biggest challenge is not getting kids through the door but managing the level of interest and business we’ve generated; a good problem to have.
We are very busy at the moment refining the business model, employing staff, developing our range of services and trying to figure out the most effective way to grow this company. Sam is fantastic and the kids (and mums) love him.

Harper’s (my ‘grown-ups’ gym) is busy all day, every day; probably the busiest in Australia. 1500 plus personal training sessions per week, fifty(ish) trainers, two new staff this week and new people walking through the door daily…. all good (but demanding and non-stop).

Radio is going great at the moment, today I did my three hour show (health,fitness, lifestyle talk, interviews and talkback), tomorrow I host a five hour sports show (12-5pm) and I am doing regular work on two other stations… each hour of radio I do requires somewhere around two hours of organisation, preparation and planning… again, fun but lots of work.

TV is cool and challenging. I host a weekly ‘Lifestyle’ show on Channel 31 here in Melbourne and I appear regularly on Channel Ten (national) as the fitness editor for the 9AM show. It’s a steep learning curve and I definitely still have much to learn. They haven’t thrown me off yet… so I guess that’s a positive!

Writing is what I love to do and I do lots of it.
Apart from writing for this site, I also write every issue for a couple of national magazines (one sport, one fitness) as well as contributing periodically to several others and have written a few books. The last two months have taught me the importance of not writing for the sake of ‘churning out’ another article or post. Several times I have sat down to my computer at eleven o’clock after working a fifteen hour day and come up with donuts. I will do my best to add quality content to the site most days but I will not write just for the sake of it.

Speaking: At the moment I do somewhere between two and three (mostly corporate) talks per week and have a ball. Being the shy little wall-flower that I am, I enjoy getting in front of groups and offending, challenging, motivating and educating the masses whenever I can… I also do fitness industry gigs speaking to trainers and talking at health clubs to the members. My speaking is managed by one of the best speaking agencies in Australia (ICMI), so they do all the hard stuff and I just need to turn up and do my thing.
Nice.

Mentoring and coaching. Although I don’t have as much time these days to do one on one coaching and mentoring, I still do somewhere around five sessions per week; these are done in person or over the phone and are really rewarding and productive… some of my sessions are even with overseas clients; the world really is a small place!

Training. I do my best to train myself about an hour a day doing either weights or cardio or both. I don’t always get there but most days I do okay. I should stretch more but I don’t; I have the flexibility of a ceramic tile.

So I guess it’s no wonder I’m tired and no wonder my body is telling me to kick back, relax, have some sleep and put the to-do list away for a day or two.

Amazingly, this time I’m gonna listen.

Tonight is Saturday night.
It is 6.32 as I write this sentence and I have three invitations to various functions or social gatherings tonight.
I made a decision an hour ago to attend none of them and to speak to no-one.

I’m home alone and I’m diggin’ it.

I thought I’d hang out with me tonight.

Here’s my plan for the evening:

1. Walk to the beach, feel the sand between my toes for a while and then sit, look at the water, ponder nothing in particular and see what happens…. or doesn’t happen.
2. Walk home and eat something healthy (or not); possibly involving cheesecake.
3. Read.
4. Sleep.
5. Wake up with no alarm (hopefully I don’t sleep through my radio show).
6. Walk to the bathroom, look in the mirror and hopefully the red eyes will be gone and I’ll look (and feel) better than I do right now.

Sometimes our body finds a way to slap us in the side of the head and get our attention.
Today was such a day for me.

I’m gonna pay more attention.

Right, I’m off to the beach.
See ya.

Murano Glass Jewelry Origins

Glass beads have been in use as jewelry, probably as a substitute for the rare and expensive gemstones, for centuries. There is evidence of a method known as ‘core forming’ in Mesopotamia in 2340 B.C. where a metal rod with pieces of glass was held over a fire; as the glass softened, they were worked into intricate ornaments that were treasured by their owners so much that people were buried with them.

Although glassmaking has been an art and an industry in Europe, particularly Venice, since the 11th century, it was the return of the Venetian explorer Marco Polo and his father in 1294, which provided the impetus for the widespread development of the glass bead as ornamental jewelry. Returning from his travels in Asia with jewelry and precious stones from China, the Venetian glassmakers took to their furnaces to reproduce the gems he had brought back. Soon after, improvements in glassmaking techniques and materials provided the means for the development of a wide range of Venetian glass jewelry, especially Murano jewelry.

The island of Murano lies to the north of Venice. It has been the hub of the Venetian glass industry for several centuries - mainly because Venetian lawmakers forced the move in 1291. The style and color or Murano glass is unique and much sought after. It is now a standard and much enjoyed component of the jewelry industry and looks great when worn.

Murano glass jewelry makes a fine gift. The workmanship that goes into making the jewelry means that everybody can expect quality glass adornments every time.

Exploring the Concept of True Self

A story to begin.
Two monks were washing their bowls in the river when they noticed a scorpion that was drowning. One monk immediately scooped it up in his hand and set it upon the bank. In the process he was stung. He went back to washing his bowl and again the scorpion fell in. The monk saved the scorpion once again and was again stung. The other monk asked him, “Friend, why do you continue to save the scorpion when you know it’s nature is to sting?”
“Because,” the monk replied, “to save it is my nature.”

It would seem that the monk had clarity and certainty about who he was.
His true self.
But then again… maybe he only had certainty about his nature.

Which begs the question, is he his nature… or is his nature merely part of him?
Does it define him… or is it simply a guiding force?
And if it is a guiding force… is it an emotional, spiritual or psychological guide?

My brain hurts already and I’ve only just started typing!

I don’t know how far I’ll get with this philosophical exploration in a thousand words (or so) but being the adventurer that I am, I thought I’d give it a bash.
After all, how hard can it be?

So, today I went against my ‘no research’ policy and googled the term true self… I got 143,000,000 matches. Clearly, there’s no definitive answer or consensus on the subject.
It seems that the religious folk, the academic folk, the personal development folk and the philosophers don’t agree on too much.

I didn’t do it… but I reckon that if I interviewed ten ‘experts’ and asked them the one question (what is true self)… I’d get ten very different answers.
Good thing I’m here to end the debate and clear up the confusion on this topic for mankind, once and for all(!).

My humble little gift to humanity.

When I write for the site, I typically do no research.
Zero.
Nada.
Sorry… hope you don’t feel ripped off.
As a rule, I sit at my computer and write from the head and heart…. and from my experiences and observations.

Having got 143,000,000 matches for true self, I quickly realised why I keep the research to a minimum…. I guess all we really get when we research a subject like this is someone else’s ideas, thoughts, philosophies and beliefs anyway; not necessarily a bad thing… but when someone else tells us who our true self is, or should be (a ridiculous notion all by itself) then we run the risk of being ‘their concept’ of true self and in the process we deny ourselves the opportunity to really discover who we are, what we’re all about and why we are… the way we are (if you get me, well done… that makes two of you).

Lately I have heard the terms “being true to yourself” and “discovering your true self” used with increasing frequency in conversation and the other day someone asked me if I thought that they were being true to themselves with a situation that they were dealing with in their life. I was kinda confused and blurted out some lame-ass, not-very-helpful answer and walked away with the concept of ‘true self’ running through my mind.

It’s not really a term I use… and I hadn’t explored it.

How do we discover our true self, I wondered.
What does the term mean?
Do we really need to worry about it… or is this just one more piece of unnecessary personal development fluff to distract me from just living, laughing, learning and loving?
Maybe I already am being my true self… but if not, does that mean I’m being my fake self?
Maybe I’m already too introspective, reflective and analytical?
Maybe I need to forget about me and focus on other people’s needs for a while?
Maybe the way to personal empowerment and finding our true self is actually to empower, help and serve others.
Perhaps I need to read less self-help stuff, do less workshops, have less therapy and just get out and start doing.

On one hand, I do ‘get’ people who say that they feel like they are living a lie by being in a job, relationship or a situation that doesn’t stimulate them, challenge them, make them happy or fulfill them… but I also think it’s important to acknowledge that being our true self is not necessarily about the situations and circumstances we find ourselves in, but rather how we behave and conduct ourselves in those situations and circumstances.
How we choose to live; the decisions we make, the conversations we have, the actions we take, the type of relationships we develop and the realities we create… no matter where we find ourselves.

Perhaps being true to ourselves is all about the internal stuff; the head and heart stuff.
Yep, that’s what I’m thinkin’.

I’ve been in situations in my life where I’ve been involved in things (relationships, businesses, projects and various wacky situations) that just didn’t ‘feel’ right. Without spending another thousand words exploring the reasons why (and boring you), I just knew that it wasn’t the right fit for me.
Perhaps when we’re not being true to ourselves we just know.
I believe I know.
And I also know when I’m compromising and being a hypocrite.
I know because I’ve done it all and I know how it feels to do the right thing (for me) and how it feels to compromise.

For me the true self thing comes down to two simple questions:

1) What are my values (what are the things which are most important to me)?

2) Do I live a life which is consistent with (and reflective of) those values?

I figure if I can answer question one honestly…. and say yes to question two, I’m doing okay.

But hey, that’s just my take on it and I’m just a simple ex-bodybuilder trying to figure it all out… so what would I know?

The Impact of Commonwealth Games on Tourism

Being able to bring in the 2010 CWG, Common Wealth Games, to Delhi, the National Capital Territory (NCT) as the host country has been a big boost for brand India. Delhi stretches for 1483 km, skimming border areas of States of Haryana, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh and the contact ability of CWG (Common Wealth Games) Delhi 2010 on tourism is obviously expected to help build and establish better, stronger and enviable resources and image for the host city, its surrounding areas and the country at large.

How far this impact of the Commonwealth Games on tourism will be felt can only be determined after this great sporting event, scheduled for October 2010, comes into full spirited force; bringing along with the pleasures of the games, a greater scope for allied industries and ministries that look towards sports tourism as a smart card to enhance their own lot. Some of these include marketing, advertising, education and hospitality sectors that are looking forward to introducing a new India for the sportspersons, their respective entourage and other global visitors to the country.

While knowing the time frame beforehand for the CWG is a definite advantage for the ministry of culture, tourism, transport and industrial development, there are many related ministries wanting to also jump the band wagon to use the CWG as a base for developing greater public relations with domestic, regional and international representatives at the CWG for their industry.

Since the Olympic and Commonwealth Games are the second largest sports events held in modern times, going by the fact that other cities that have hosted the CWG have recorded major spurt in tourism, Indian tourism sector is also looking forward to this chance of their country playing host to the CWG and it getting a worthy chance at presenting newer, vibrant youth-appeal for their motherland. Some examples for novel cultural showcasing and successful gift-wrapping done by tourism sectors having played host to CWG before are global interest segments like adventure, spa or spirituality tourism, as evident in the case of earlier hosts of world sporting events: Beijing, China and Barcelona, Spain benefited from hosting the Olympics while Manchester, UK and Melbourne, Australia received greater tourist inflow during and after playing host to CWG 2002 and 2006, respectively.

Working Of Polarized Sunglasses

It is been years together, boaters and fishermen have used polarized sunglasses to lessen the glare appearing from water. In past few year, any how, the advantages of polarized sunglasses have been recognized by a variety of other outdoor sports and as well as by the drivers and for the general use wearers. The fame of polarized lenses and glasses has tremendously increased.

Apart from the boaters and fishermen, people who received the benefit from polarized sunglasses and lens include skiers, golfers, joggers and bikers, who really enjoy a clear view and elimination of glare. These sunglasses could be further used for driving and actually could decrease the glare, which comes off a long, flat surface such as the hood of the car or by the facade of a road. Polarized sunglasses could as well be used in indoors by the people light-sensitive such as post-cataract surgical procedure patients or by those showing to bright light through windows.

Working of Polarized Lenses

Light reproduced from surfaces like a flat road or by the smooth water is normally horizontally polarized. This horizontally polarized light is blocked by the perpendicularly oriented polarizer in the lenses.

There are some arguments on the effects of polarized lenses and glasses on snow-covered surfaces. Some professionals say they could certainly decrease the intense glare, which is caused by sunlight sparkly off snow. Others purport, which the lenses are not acceptable for sports such as downward skiing as they might not offer the difference the eye requirements to differentiate ice patches or moguls.

In addition, polarized lenses might also respond unfavorably with liquid crystal displays (LCDs) found on the dashboards of some cars and in some other places such as the digital screens on automatic teller (bank) machines (ATM’s). The problem with LCDs is, which when looked through polarized lenses and glasses from a positive angle, they could be invisible.

However, for most other sports and other activities, polarized sunglasses and lenses could provide huge advantages. And today, many kinds of polarized lenses and glasses are obtainable on the market.

Polarized progressive lenses are ideal for the presbyope who is as well an amazing outdoor sports aficionado. And polarized photo chromic lenses and glasses that change from dark outside to light inside, are right for the light-sensitive people who changes environments often (inside to outside and vice versa).

Whether you spend your time boating or for waterskiing, in-line skating or for mountain biking, driving or for jogging, polarized sunglasses are just excellent choice.
