I hope to become a successful book author. Currently, I am working on a book and hope to get it published by the end of the year at the latest. However, I am still taking my time to write it and to find worthy things to jot down and have it printed. Writing a book is a laborious task and it is not for everyone. First, you need to have a laptop or a computer and be able to type with 10 fingers! Then you need to be able to thing coherently with tapping on the keyboard so that your contents make sense and people want to buy your book to read it.
You have to consider the end user in mind. Your book clients. There might also be speaking engagement and autographing of your book in the various bookstores. So there will be much publicity and your life will not be the same as before. You might have to trade off your privacy to successfully sell your book. Just wait and see!

Choosing a Good Web Design
I am a freelance web designer and appreciate any good web site designs by Designpax which has a business web site in designpax.com, where you can click on the link to find out more information.
I can identify with the difficulties a web site designer faces especially when he or she has to come out with a fresh looking layout or template that is easy to navigate, not cluttered and clean design with a preferably white background for readability.
Not only that, the web site also has to load fast, hopefully within 20 seconds on a dial-up modem as many countries in the world and especially in the developing ones are still using the old dial-up system. That is because, you don't want to miss out on this target group of people and hope that they don't bypass your beautifully designed web site all because they have to wait for too long for all the page elements to load up fully.
The landing page design is also just as important and you can also add Facebook landing pages to increase traffic for the taking. Hence, a good website designer not only can design a fully functional and beautiful web site but one that works well with any browser like Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome and so on.
These are the pertinent factors to consider when designing a web page or a web site for that matter.

Making Money is Not Easy
Making money is not easy and not everyone in the streets know how to do this. That is why you have beggars begging with some genuine cases while others are professional beggars recruited by organisations. This is the easiest way to earn money but can be very very boring! Sitting down there whole day doing nothing, except to look pathetic, dirty and destitute. Hence, it is all about education and integrity. The higher educated you are, the more likely you will earn more.

Got an Offer Today
Today, I received an offer to blog and get paid. Working on the internet other than my main job is my part time income, where I will write articles for clients now and then. It is a win-win basis for both parties. I love my job and I work in my pajamas.
It is like a dream come true - my goal all this while is to be able to sustain myself while working from a home office with just a computer and internet connectivity. So, working at a home office suits me perfectly well. No more office politics and back stabbing.
No more 'disease of Egypt' or simply known as 'stress!' Do you know that stress can kill you slowly but surely? Now with an understanding boss, my life has turned around 180 degrees and I take it as God's provision and blessings upon my life.

Received Offer to Write
I received a writing offer after submitting my resume for the job which I found online. Well, the young start up has paid me a few times already after I delivered the work promptly. It is about 5 sen per word which is about 1.67 cents USD per word, which is not too bad.
What I like about this gig is that I have the freedom to write as much as I like or as little as I wish. So, everything is up to me. The articles are for the web site and there are reference sites for me to browse through. It is so easy peasy but who says working hard for money is difficult?
If you are afraid of hard work, then I think it is not for you. Otherwise, it could be a profitable hobby working at home in your own pace.

Money is Not Everything
Do not worship money. Love people and use money. Not love money and use people. We are not to allow our love for money to cloud our judgement and do the things that we will regret later. Relationships are more important and you can lose the money, but don't lose the good relationship. Money can be earned anytime as long as you are happy, of sound mind and have a good relationship with someone you love. Eventually, both of you can earn back what is lost and recoup your loses in a matter of time and will. Two heads are better than one and find friends that will motivate you to greater heights. Look for positive people to encourage each other. Avoid negative and boastful people if possible.

God Grant Me Wisdom
I pray for God to grant me wisdom in my everyday affairs, especially when dealing with my parents. It is not easy being left out and the length of time spent at home can be uncomfortable. But I pray that God will give me favor to get along with people and the determination to work by the computer long hours, checking out pertinent information so that I can continue to earn money way into my golden years. I am neither young nor old and need to make as much as I can for my golden year during retirement ahead. But happiness with contentment is great gain and I should strive to be happy inside my soul. When worry and anxiety are gone, then can I rest and relax in His shalom peace. Now I have quite a substantial savings with some leftover for investment into the share market. Today, I bought Nestle at RM 55 per share for 100 shares through my Public Bank online trading account. I plan to keep the money there untouched for at least 10 years before realizing profits.
