You know, it’s really funny. It almost doesn’t matter how good your article is. If you have a subject line that just lays there like a rock at the bottom of a lake, nobody is going to read your wonderful article. Sad but true. So, it is the hope of this article, and the author who wrote it, that by the time you are done reading this, you will have a pretty good understanding of how to come up with that killer subject line that will just make people want to read your article.

Did you ever watch the teasers before the evening news, especially Fox after an episode of 24 on Monday night? They almost always have one that goes something like this…

“Could this be the end of Jack Bauer?”

What do you think that does? It makes people want to watch the news. I mean, heaven forbid that the show did away with its beloved star. So teaser subjects like that make people watch an hour of news that they most likely wouldn’t have watched. And trust me, it’s a full hour because you know that story is coming pretty close to the end of the broadcast. That’s called smart advertising.

Well, that’s what your article subject line has to do. It has to be smart. It has to make people want to open up your article and read what’s inside. Otherwise, all the great writing in the world is just going to go to waste.

So, how do you come up with a killer subject line, and more importantly, what subject lines do you want to avoid at all costs? Well, I’m going to give you a couple of examples using different topics so you can see that this trick will work for just about any subject.

Let’s take the subject of “acne” and see what we can do with a bland boring subject line.

Let’s say you want to write an article on the causes of acne. Well, you can play it safe and come up with a subject something like “The Causes Of Acne.” Now, maybe somebody will actually read that article if they really want to know what causes acne. But what if you came out with a subject like this?

“Why You’ve Got That Zit In The Middle Of Your Forehead.”

It’s amusing, it’s funny and it will catch people’s attention. I would be willing to bet that you’ll get more people reading that subject and that article, even if it isn’t as well written, than the one before it. Why? Because it’s human nature to look for the interesting and the different.

Let’s take the subject of, well, of writing articles. Let’s take this very one.

I could have made a subject that read, “How To Write Subject Lines For Articles.” I mean it does say what the article is going to talk about, but by using the subject line “Writing Killer Article Subject Lines”, it made it just a little more interesting and made you more likely to read it.

Writing a killer subject line for your article is not hard. All it takes is a little imagination and a few minutes of thought.

Try it sometime. You’ll be surprised what you can come up with.

To YOUR Writing Success,

Steven Wagenheim

Preparation for Pregnancy

I can imagine that you are probably thinking about having a baby at this time (that is why you are reading this article, isn’t it?). As a mother I can tell you right away that pregnancy is a very exciting time in a woman’s life. But it can also be a time filled with questions and concerns. You may ask, “Why it is important to be ready for pregnancy?” and, “What is the big reason for doing this?” Well, read on to find out. Conception occurs about 2 weeks before your period is due. That means that you may be more than 3 weeks pregnant and not even know that you’re pregnant! This is important because your baby is most sensitive to harm in the period from two to eight weeks after conception. This is when your baby’s facial features and organs, such as the heart and kidneys, begin to form. Anything that you eat, drink, smoke or are exposed to can affect your baby. That’s why it’s best to start acting as if you’re pregnant before you are sure that you have conceived, if you have been trying to get pregnant.

Your First Visit to Your Doctor about a Pregnancy?

It is better to see your doctor when you’re just thinking about getting pregnant. You can talk about your diet, bowel habits, lifestyle, weight control and any concerns that you have. Try to visit your doctor in the year before you want to get pregnant. A thorough physical examination performed at this time may reveal unknown factors in your health that might have a significant effect on your ability to fall pregnant or successfully carry a child through to birth. High blood pressure, diabetes, back disease and gynecological problems are examples of some that can be found. A Pap smear test should be performed if you are due for one. A blood test for, and a check of your family history of, Rubella (German measles) infection will be arranged and a vaccination given if necessary. You and your partner (father-to-be) will be asked about your medical history because that is very important for the progress of your pregnancy and your future baby.

Some medical problems, including genetic diseases such as Cystic fibrosis and sickle cell anemia, run in the family. These problems aren’t caused by anything you do. Talk with your doctor about your risk factors and whether screening tests are needed. If you are over 35 years of age, a talk with your doctor is highly recommended. You’ll both also have the chance to ask your doctor any questions you may have at this exciting time. Conception, when life begins, is a miraculous process. Today, we know more than we ever have about its wondrous ways, but many aspects still remain a challenging mystery. Once fertilized, the egg has seven days to get down the fallopian tube, enter the cavity of the uterus and burrow into the lining so that it is covered by nutrient-rich blood of its mother. This is probably the most hazardous journey any of us will ever take. Failing to complete the trip leads to certain death. To begin the trip, but be delayed means either death or an ectopic pregnancy. Getting to the uterus too quickly probably also results in failure and death. Even if this developing new person makes it to the stage of implantation into the lining of the uterus, 50% will miscarry in the very early stages.

Shettles’s System to Increase The Odds of Having a Boy or a Girl in Your Favor.

What can you do to improve your chances of having a girl next time, if you already have two sons and you want to have a girl? Is there any way to increase the odds in your favor of having a boy or a girl? There is no simple way in which the sex of a child can be guaranteed, but the following system (known as Shettle’s System) may help. Using this system is free; it absolutely does not cost you any money, only your determination and desire. At best, this system increases the chances of a child of a particular sex from 50% to 75%. It is definitely NOT a guarantee of success, but it is currently the most well-known method for influencing gender without the use of medical procedures. The method is based on the premise that men produce two types of sperm, the X (female) and Y (male). The Y sperms are smaller and more delicate, but faster, than the X sperms (which are bigger, tougher and slower), the system is based on providing an environment which is more likely to help the type of sperm that matches your preference to get to the egg first.

There are 6 basic recommendations to follow:

1) Timing - the most critical aspect of the Shettle’s method is to time when you have intercourse. The closer to ovulation that you have sex, the better your chances of having a boy, because ovulation provides the most optimal time for conceiving, and male sperm are faster. If you have intercourse about 3 days prior to ovulation, you may maximize the chances for the slower but tougher female sperm, which are able to survive until the egg appears.

2) The pH of the woman’s tract is also important. A more alkaline environment is generally favorable to fertility and, therefore, favors the quicker, but more delicate, male sperm. For a girl, a douche of very diluted water and vinegar is done just before intercourse. For a boy, a douche of very diluted water and baking soda just before intercourse is indicated.

3) A woman’s tract is more acidic, the closer to the entrance of the vagina that the measurement is taken. Therefore, intercourse with shallow penetration may favor the conception of a girl, and intercourse with deeper penetration is believed to favor a boy being the result.

4) Orgasms in females produce a hormone which makes their vaginal tract more alkaline and therefore more favorable for boys.

5) A high sperm count favors boys. To increase sperm count, Shettle’s method recommends that you abstain from intercourse for up to three to four days before ovulation. Also, men should wear boxers rather than tight underpants. To reduce the sperm count, men should take a hot bath just before intercourse and couples should have as much intercourse as possible until 3 days before ovulation.

6) Drinking a cup of coffee just prior to intercourse tends to favor a boy.

To sum up all of the above:
To Increase the Chance of Having a Girl:
Use a vaginal douche, consisting of 20 ml white vinegar in 500 ml of water, ten minutes before having sex. Have sex frequently in the seven to ten days before you ovulate. Have no sex from one day before ovulation until ten days after ovulation. Your partner should ejaculate just inside the vagina, and not deeply inside. Your partner should withdraw immediately after ejaculation. It is better for the woman not to have an orgasm.

To Increase the Chance of Having a Boy:
Ten minutes before sex, use a vaginal douche consisting of 5 g of baking soda in 500 mg of water. Have no sex from the end of your period until the day ovulation occurs. Have sex twice daily from the day of ovulation until four days afterward. Your partner should ejaculate deep inside the vagina. Your partner should withdraw immediately after ejaculation. It is better for woman to have an orgasm; ideally just before ejaculation.
Good luck!

Symptoms of Early Pregnancy

These are some of the first signs of impending motherhood. You may experience all, some, or none of these symptoms during the early stages of your pregnancy:

1 )Tender, swollen breasts: If you’re pregnant, your breasts will probably become increasingly tender to the touch, similar to the way they feel before your period. A tingling sensation will be felt in the nipples. Once your body grows accustomed to the hormone surge, the pain will subside.

2) Darkening of your areolas: If the skin around your nipples gets darker and the small lubricating glands become more prominent with small bumps appearing, you may have successfully conceived. But, this may also signal a hormonal imbalance that is unrelated to pregnancy or be a left-over effect from a previous pregnancy. It can even be related to the consumption of oral contraceptive pills.

3) Frequent urination: Once the embryo implants and begins producing the hormone ‘human chorionic gonadotropin’ (HCG), pregnant women start to urinate more frequently. This settles down after the twelfth week. But, later in pregnancy, the increased size of the womb puts more pressure on the bladder and frequent urination occurs again.

4) Dark patches on forehead and cheeks: These patches are caused by hormonal changes that affect the pigment cells in the skin (they are called ‘chloasma’). Such changes may be also be a side-effect of the contraceptive pills. The navel and a line down the center of the woman’s belly may also darken. These pigment changes fade somewhat after the pregnancy but those areas will probably always remain darker than before.

5) Food cravings: Food cravings can, sometimes, be a sign of pregnancy. Don’t rely on them as a sure symptom (it may be all in your head, or even a sign that your body is low on a particular nutrient), but if the cravings are accompanied by some of the other symptoms on this list, the chance is that you are pregnant.

6) Implantation bleeding or cramping: You may experience implantation spotting, a slight staining of a pink or brown color, as well as some cramping about eight days after ovulation. You might also see some spotting around the time you expect your period; this is caused by the egg burrowing into the endometrial lining.

7) Fatigue: High levels of the hormone progesterone can make you feel tired; as if you’ve run a marathon, when all you’ve done is to put in a day at the office. Tiredness is a hallmark of early pregnancy, though probably not a sure symptom on its own.

Morning sickness: Normally, morning sickness won’t hit you until a few weeks after conception. A lucky few escape it altogether. But, you may begin feeling nauseated and queasy as early as a couple of days following conception. This may not just occur in the morning; pregnancy-related nausea can be a problem morning, noon, or night. You may also notice that your sense of taste changes. Some women say they have a metallic taste in their mouth, others that they cannot stand the taste of coffee, tea or a food they usually like.

9) Your basal body temperature stays high: You will notice this only if you’ve been charting your basal body temperature. If your basal body temperature has stayed above the cover line for 18 days in a row, you’re probably pregnant. Basal body temperature is your temperature taken the first thing every the morning before you get up, usually about 6 a.m. It is important to keep taking it at the same time. The temperature can be taken orally, vaginally or rectally – just stay with the same method for the entire cycle. On the picture, you can see the graph of basal temperature taken during one cycle. It shows the effect of an ovulation; the temperature rise in the middle of cycle. If you are pregnant, the temperature rise should last for 18 days in a row.

10) A missed period: This is the surest sign of pregnancy in a woman of childbearing age who usually has regular periods. If you’re usually pretty regular and your period is late, it’s worth trying a home pregnancy test.

11) A positive home pregnancy test: Now, you should make an appointment with your doctor to confirm the good news.

Nowadays, while growing consumer debts have become a typical part of the way of life, many people dream of a time when they will be debt free but don’t know where to start. This article is full of debt free solutions to develop and maintain a debt-free lifestyle:

1. Make the Commitment.

Every time you go to a designer store, or feel the need to make an impulse purchase, you must ensure that you are committed to maintaining a debt free lifestyle. Leave the store, think about it over night and then see if you really want it.

2. Make a Budget.

Allocate your income and expenditure so that you know how much money you are making, and what you need to spend money on.

3. Leave your Plastic Home.

Credit Cards should only be for emergencies, or if you can afford to pay them off in full each month. Leave the plastic at home so you won’t get tempted.

4. Pay your existing Debts.

Pay off your existing debts. Pay more that the minimum monthly commitment, and if you have any extra cash, put it into your debts so they can be paid off more quickly.

5. Choose one, chuck the rest.

Limit the number of credit cards you have to one or two. Pick the one’s with a lower interest rate.

6. Avoid impulse Buying.

Leave the credit cards at home. And make it a habit of thinking and discussing big purchases with friends and family.

7. Get rid of things you do not need, and turn them into Money

Have a Garage Sale to sell unwanted items, or sell them on eBay.

8. Live within your Means.

Don’t spend more than you earn. A credit card is a useful tool, but it shouldn’t be considered an extension of your income.

You need to look long-term if you want to be debt free, as debt-free means living within your means whilst having investments to increase your income.

The main key to attain a debt free lifestyle is to keep track, know how to manage your finances, and resist temptation. Always make sure that as days pass by, you’re getting rid of your debts, no matter how slow your progress is.

1. Ambition is the other name of Dream, Every achievement is preceded by a dream and all outstanding Performances/Achievements are preceded by big dreams. So, dream, dream and dream, go on dreaming. Dream big since big dreams realize to big results.

2. Physical impact accelerates the Achievements but Dream is intangible hence it requires to be translated and to be put in black and white so that a Tangible effect is placed before the eyes and the achievement made easy.

3. First Deserve and then Desire. Each one of us has a Spark in him. It is through our intellect, ingenuity and imagination; we should try to bring out the spark in us make us the fittest one to deserve the best one.

4. Success also requires a blueprint before it is achieved. Put first things first. You must know where to Start and where to stop. Begin with the end in mind. Allot time for planning. Planning is the essence of life. Remember—failed to plan means planned to fail.

5. One must know himself first, his strengths and weaknesses. Remember not to settle for less when you have the Potentiality. Build on strengths. Make your decisions more effective.

6. God helps them who help themselves. Do your Best and leave the rest to God, whatever happens will be for the best. Always compare your contribution, not the success with that of others.

7. How your time is spent? Know it first, this is most important. Secret lies in the saying–Early Bird catches the Worms. Time management is the most effective tool to excel in life.

8. Opportunities seldom repeat itself. The secret of success in life for a man is to be in readiness to grab the opportunity when it comes.

9. Do not show your weakness to your enemies, nor even seek relief by communicating your difficulties to your friends if they are not aware of them already.

10. Your success also depends upon the contribution of others. Therefore, have the ability to lead. Have the ability to motivate people working with you. Your effectiveness depends upon teamwork. Inculcate team spirit. Develop subordinates. They will help you to achieve your goals

11. Unlock your mind a bit so that new ideas can come in. Be creative and innovative. Receive the suggestions and advices with an open mind but translate them into action after a bit of critical analysis.

12. Keep your mouth shut. Do listen to others. Talk less, listen more, you will have lesser competitors and enemies to set stumbling blocks in your pavement of success.

13. Try to know everything of something and something of everything. Have the hunger for knowledge. The world needs knowledgeable workers. They cannot be suppressed by any force whatsoever nature in the world.

14 There are three rules for success : the first is : go on. The second is : go on. And the third is : go on, because you are being chased by numeral aspirants and once you pause, they will surpass for success.

15. Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration. Nothing is achieved before it is thoroughly attempted.The greater the difficulty, the more glory in surmounting it. Skillful pilots gain their reputation from storms and tempests

16. It is a good idea to keep your words soft and sweet as you never know when you may have to eat them. Be polite, prepare yourself for what you want to achieve, know yourself, be cheerful/enthusiastic. Don’t be envious, be honest with yourself, be helpful, and interest yourself in your job.

Thank you for reading and best wishes for your success.

I took “The Secret” to task for misrepresenting the truth in order to make money. I heard back from a number of people. Two New Agers were unhappy, and everyone else spoke about their discomfort with “The Secret’s” lack of spiritual depth and its materialistic focus. Other writers have criticized “The Secret” as well. Stuart Davis said, “The Secret” teaches bad self-help masquerading as mysticism.” Jerry Adler commented in Newsweek, “On an ethical level, “The Secret” appears deplorable. . . Even some of the major figures in the film confess to uneasiness with its relentless materialism.” Jerry and Esther Hicks, who popularized the Law of Attraction, have pulled their material from “The Secret.” It’s easy to sell get rich quick schemes. As P.T. Barnum said, there was a customer born every minute.

Many of you asked questions about how things worked here on earth. I am finishing my new book on just that topic, but I will try and address a few thoughts here:

“The Secret” relies on the “Law” of Attraction taught by some new age speakers. The idea is a simple one: what you place your attention on will manifest in reality. In the words of “author and personal empowerment advocate” Lisa Nichols, “When you think of the things you want, and you focus on them with all of your intention, then the law of attraction will give you exactly what you want, every time.”

This assertion is not completely wrong, which is why it is confusing. But as presented, it is mental sleight of hand. Your thoughts do not determine your reality. Your beliefs determine what manifests in your life, and there are very important differences between the two.

If you believe that you deserve abundance, you will have it. If not . . .

If you believe that you deserve to be happy or successful, you will be. If not . . .

If you believe that you deserve to be loved, you will love yourself. If not . . .

So you can see that the law of attraction does work – but in regard to beliefs, not thoughts. The question is, can you change your life situation through your thoughts without changing your beliefs? The short answer is no.

Beliefs are antithetical to the God Space. As you read this, The Universe is busy creating life experiences that will bring you to question the beliefs that you carry, especially the ones you hold about yourself. And no matter what you desire, nothing is going to upset that process. It is why you are here on earth.

Now, there is an exception (sort of). The exception is that you can bulldoze your beliefs for a time. You can commit your willfulness and your intellect to (artificially) create what you desire (for a time). You can achieve fame and fortune by having a positive attitude and working hard. It is the American way. America is the land of materialism, get rich quick plans and self-made billionaires. And the thing is, a few people actually do it! Every year, some people in corporate mergers, Wall Street brokerage firms and class action lawyers work their tails off and make a great deal of money. America’s top lawsuit lawyer made $40 million last year! The average CEO of a Standard & Poor’s 500 company makes over $15 million in compensation. Americans are obsessed with money.

Western culture is built on the doctrines of positive thinking and hard work. We venerate aggressiveness. Dale Carnegie has been teaching people to think successfully for almost a century. Norman Vincent Peale first published The Power of Positive Thinking in 1952. There is nothing new there. But those programs have little to do with spirituality. These people speak to what can be accomplished through effort, intelligence and self-confidence, and although there is nothing wrong with these things, there is nothing inherently spiritual about them either. Success motivation programs and “The Secret” are preoccupied with obtaining money and success, neither of which can exist in the God Space.

The trouble with money and notoriety is the reason we usually seek them. Most of the time we are trying to compensate for what is not happening within us. We do not love ourselves, and we want to ignore the inner work that The Universe is asking us to do. We just want the good stuff without doing the real work to get there. The problem is that there is a high price to be paid for making a deal with the devil. When you accomplish things through effort, in contravention to your beliefs, it takes a considerable toll on your physical and emotional well being.

Materialism hit the big time in post world war America. So did stress related diseases such as heart disease, cancer, stroke and Alzheimer’s (unknown before WWII). Do you really believe that these are not related? Some people will argue that there are other causes, but in 1904 there was very little cancer in the U.S. Now there is an abundance of it. In 1940 a woman had a 1 in 22 chance of getting breast cancer. Today that rate is 1 in 7. Only one in 10,000 women in China will die from cancer, compared to one in 10 in the West. In men, death from prostate cancer is 70 times higher in the West. Seventy times! When Japanese people move to America their stress-related health problems multiply, especially heart disease. As industrialization sweeps across India, Southeast Asia and China, the stress related health problems in these nations are skyrocketing. There is a price for not doing your inner work and for turning away from the eternal.

It is helpful to remember that the Universe is a place of infinite abundance. God has more love or gold or anything else you desire in amounts beyond your wildest imagination. He freely offers it all to you just like He does fresh air and sunshine. So the issue is not the availability of what you want. Studies show that people who are optimistic do better in life than people with pessimistic beliefs, so there is a good deal to be gained by doing your inner work. The issue is, can you come to peace with what you believe so that you can let God’s abundance manifest naturally? Having harmonious thoughts is a good first step, but Eckhart Tolle tells us there is much more:

Some spiritual teachings urge us to let go of fear and desire. They are unsuccessful. Trying to be a good or better human being sounds like a commendable and high-minded thing to do, yet it is an endeavor you cannot ultimately succeed in unless there is a shift in consciousness. This is because it is still part of the same dysfunction, a more subtle and rarefied form of self-enhancement, of desire for more and a strengthening of one’s conceptual identity, one’s self-image. You do not become good by trying to be good but by finding the goodness that is already within you, and allowing that goodness to emerge. But it can only emerge if something fundamental changes in your consciousness.[1]

You can do a great deal to make yourself happier. And these things have merit. But they do not have great substance. When the deep wave of pain or anguish rolls up from the depths of your being, it will blow away anything that is not firmly anchored in your beingness.

So if the question is, “Can I be rich or famous?” The answer is yes, but don’t confuse that with anything real. What God cares about is the love and compassion in your heart, especially toward yourself. As long as you do not cause pain to yourself or others, God doesn’t really care what else you do. Earthly concerns are of little, if any concern to God. If you can be compassionate and rich at the same time, wonderful!

But the problem is that money and notoriety are extraordinarily seductive. They have a terrible tendency to pull people off of the spiritual path, and ignore the human love and compassion that God is interested in. Spiritual teachers have spoken about this dilemma for centuries. That is why in The Sermon on The Mount, Christ spoke of not piling up earthly treasures. He said, “Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon the earth. . . “[2] I’ll bet you didn’t know that eschewing possessions was an essential Christian principle! As with Christ’s firm admonitions against violence, the churches don’t pass along these teachings because people don’t want to hear them!

You are here because part of you does not move in harmony with the rest of The Universe. This part of you is where you become afraid, anxious and insecure. This is the place your beliefs originate as you compensate for the loss of your connection to the God Space. When urged to move to compassion, you are only able to go partway – especially in regard to being compassionate toward yourself.

Everything that happens in your life will be part of a process to realign your beliefs so that you can live closer to the God Space. Everything that happens in your life will urge you to challenge your beliefs of unworthiness and move to greater compassion. We do not like going into the parts of ourselves where we feel inadequate. We would prefer to stay involved with “safer” earthly concerns. But God is primarily interested in what is happening within us. Guess who wins?

I think it is important to keep Morris Adler’s words in mind:

Our prayers are answered
not when we are given what we ask for
but when we are challenged to be what we can be.

People are used to throwing out their bait and letting it set while they wait. Some days this works and they do not have to wait very long for a fish to tug on their line. However, there are times when the waiting just seems endless. Are you frustrated trying to find the fish? You just know they are near by but you spend more time trying to locate them than you actually spending enjoying yourself fishing. You constantly ask yourself, are they really near by and how deep in the water are they?

Fishing is definitely more fun when you are actually catching fish rather than trying to find them. Well now you can take the guess work out of where those “darn” fish are hiding.

The latest technology uses sonar and GPS technology to locate fish. It does not matter whether you are a weekend hobbyist or a tournament angler. It does not matter whether you prefer fresh water or salt water. The is a GPS unit for you.

There are now a range of fish finders which are ideal for all kinds of fishing. It does not matter whether you prefer to fish from a small craft, from the side of any water, or whether you prefer to fish from a 50 foot yacht. The big ones will never remain elusive again.

The latest technology now has a Fish Finder Watch designed especially for the kayak and float tube user. When the bulky, feature-filled fish finders are too awkward to carry on board a small craft, take a look at the Humminbird RF30.

There are fish finders available which use the best of both sonar and GPS technology for all levels of experience and budgets.

Some of the brands which provide this technology include:

1.Furuno: talk to any commercial or sport fisherman and they will tell you that Furuno makes some of the finest Depth Sounders and Fish Finders that are marketed.

2.Garmin: mariners and anglers, worldwide have come to rely on Garmin products to make being on the water more enjoyable. Their line of products includes fish finders, and portable GPS units.

3.Humminbird: continues to lead the way from fish finders to innovative super-portable SmartCast units.

4.Lowrance: has a superb range of split -screen navigation and fish finder units. They also carry portable, waterproof GPS units.

5.Magellan: offers a superb Meridian range of GPS units to ensure your safety while fishing.

6.Eagle: Eagle fish finders are available which make the best use of both sonar and GPS technologies for all levels of experience and budgets.

Why leave fish finding to chance. Use an electronic fish finder. Fishing is definitely more fun when you are catching fish rather than trying to find them. Using the latest technology of sonar and GPS units allows you to spend more time catching fish than looking for them.

If you’re ready to pop the question, you want to find an engagement ring that demonstrates how much you really care for your bride to be. However, if you’re on a budget a cheap diamond engagement ring might seem impossible to come by.

Thankfully, the following tips are designed to help you stick to your budget while you shop for diamond engagement rings. Whether you choose a 14k or 18k gold band, platinum settings, or anything in between, you can find something affordable for your special someone.

The 4 “C’s”

Prior to shopping, it’s important to research what makes a quality diamond. Deciding to purchase a ring solely on price isn’t the way to go, and the price of a diamond ring means very little unless you understand the 4 “C’s” of diamond quality.

The four “C’s” consist of color, cut, clarity, and carat size. These components are very important in determining a diamond’s quality, but they can show you that a cheap diamond doesn’t necessarily mean it’s worthless.

Granted, an engagement ring that’s 14k gold will cost considerably less than a band that’s set in 18K Gold. Similarly, the larger the carat size, the more money you can expect to shell out towards a fitting ring.

Saving Money on Engagement Rings

Once you’ve educated yourself on the components of a high quality diamond, it’s time to figure out how you’re going to find a ring that still retains its quality.

There are several places you can search for without breaking the bank. First and foremost, you can choose to use a family ring as an engagement ring, which will eliminate any major costs right from the start.

However, if that isn’t an option for you, there are several other places to search for cheap yet high quality diamond engagement rings. For example, consider purchasing a ring from an antique store or pawn shop. This might sound a little odd, but you might be surprised at what you can find if you only take the time to look!

You could also search through jewelry classified ads and find a ring that will suit your needs – you can always have the stone reset, if you prefer. Finally, you might also want to consider purchasing a ring that has several small stones in the setting rather than one large stone. You’ll save money this way, and still have an affordable diamond engagement ring for your bride to be.

Once you learn what makes a high quality diamond and how to comparison shop for the best price, you’ll be able to find a “cheap” diamond engagement ring she’ll love – without breaking the bank.

We each have deep within us the knowledge and the resources to build a life of happiness and creativity.

We’ve tasted enough of being both creative and happy to know what we love and what we want more of, and what we don’t like and need less of.

The difficulty comes in filtering out the surface noise so we can truly listen to this deeper source of knowledge.

Every one of us is unique in our creativity, so every one of us has a unique recipe for a creative and happy life.

But there are some basic ingredients that are needed for everyone’s recipe.

Today we’re going to focus on one of the most important.

Letting your creativity naturally evolve is essential for a life of creativity and happiness.

What do we mean then by “letting your creativity naturally evolve”?

Many of us are capable of being prolific in our creativity and churning out project after project more efficiently than a factory conveyor belt.

But we’re creative artists aren’t we, not production line automated robots?

If we’re producing the same end product each time, how creative is that, really?

We’ve all heard and witnessed many times over the story of the “One Hit Wonder” in the pop music charts.

They write and release a catchy infectious tune, everyone loves it and it sells in the hundreds of thousands. Fantastic, everyone’s happy.

Then they release their follow up.

Hang on though, this sounds almost EXACTLY like their first song…

By the third single they’ve virtually disappeared off the pop radar, never to be seen or heard again.

So how do we avoid being a One Hit Wonder? Or even worse, a NO Hit Wonder!?

We let our creativity naturally evolve.

Letting our creativity evolve is about experimenting, taking risks, being brave, colouring outside the edges.

It’s also about listening to ourselves and finding what helps us be more confident and bold in our creative experimentation.

Of course we don’t try to reinvent the wheel completely each time in the way we create. Much in the same way we don’t relearn our alphabet from scratch each time we go to write or speak.

Finding consistent methods and techniques that work well for our creativity is brilliant, and to be highly encouraged.

But following the same techniques down to the very last detail, without shaking things up at all, can only lead to producing the same product over and over and again.

And that’s not one of the ingredients of a happy and creative life.

So what are you going to do, from TODAY onwards, to help your creativity naturally evolve?

Start right now by going and creating something different, something brave, something edgy.

Vow to do this every few weeks or so, just to give your creative work some freshness and the chance to develop and evolve in new directions.

By doing this regularly, and letting your creativity naturally evolve, you’ll be giving yourself one of the essential ingredients for a creative and happy life.
