Just about everyone wants to advance in his or her chosen vocation. No one wants to simply stay put; everyone wants to get somewhere else. But few people really know how to make their own advancement happen.

Career development is not very complex - which is not to say that it is easy to accomplish. On the contrary, it requires a tremendous amount of discipline to be able to maximize the resources available to you, i.e., your time, money, and energy.

However, once you have mastered the skill of using what you have to the fullest, you will be well on your way to personal growth and career advancement.

Here are a few things you can do in your quest for career development:

Read extensively. In many fields, reading is one of the best things you can do to educate yourself. An oft-quoted study shows that Americans on average read one book each year after graduation.

Obviously, in a rapidly changing world, one book a year is not enough. If you expect to get anywhere in the world, you will do your share of study and research, if only in the subject area which apply to your line of work.

A large number of self-development professionals say that anyone who aspires to be a leader in their industry must read for at least thirty minutes a day. After all, they say, reading is to the mind as exercise is to the body.

By keeping your mind sharp and by staying abreast of the developments in your field, you will have a decided advantage over those who simply do not bother.

Provide what is required. Whether you work for a firm or operate your own business, a fundamental principle is to give your customers what they want.

If you are an employee, “giving the customers what they want” is really giving your boss what he wants, in terms of work productivity. If you operate a business, the principle requires no further explanation.

Always try to find out what is expected of you, and what people want to receive from you. As a business owner, this will mean conducting market research.

As an employee, this will mean making a study of your company and finding the area where your unique skills are certain to have an effect.

Go the extra mile. Napoleon Hill, the famous self-help author, advised everyone to “go the extra mile” in everything that they do.

According to Hill, when you spend an hour doing something you don’t have to do for the benefit of someone else, that one hour can be worth more than the rest of your day. Over time, a policy of going the extra mile will provide you untold benefits, and will do wonders for your career development.

"The healing of the body can not be separated from the healing of the mind". - Hippocrates

"If someone wishes for good health, one must first ask oneself if he is ready to do away with the reasons for his illness. Only then is it possible to help him."
—Hippocrates

Hippocrates was an amazing physician from ancient Greece (Kos).  He believed and taught that the mind and body functioned together.  Hippocrates was the father of holistic medicine, focusing on treating the whole person, not a symptom.  Unfortunately, most of Hippocrates’ teachings were ignored for centuries.

Today, much thought has gone into the state of mind which co exists or actually causes the development of many physical symptoms.  On a subconscious level, we are aware of the mind-body relationship, and this is evident from our everyday vocabulary.  "I can’t stomach it".  "A pain in the ***".  "what a headache that is". "He wont swallow that excuse." and the list of phrases goes on and on…

However, beyond our everyday jargon, it is essential that we examine actual physical symptoms and diseases and their possible emotional root causes.   The idea that the actual root of our symptoms and diseases are from the mind means that in order to achieve wellness we have to eradicate the problem or the issues plaguing us.

It is fascinating to see that this very premise is a basic teaching of many  present day belief systems with ancient roots (such as qi jong, ayurvedic principles, Hippocratic medicine) as well as modern day alternative theories (etheric surgery, flower remedy practice, quantum healing, past life regression, rebirthing…).

I have listed some symptoms and diseases along with the most common emotional causes.

AIDS- although AIDS is seen as a sexually transmitted disease, it is a syndrome that encompasses many different conditions.  Usually, those that are susceptible to acquiring  AIDS are known to also be struggling from issues  such as suffering from a lack of self-worth and lack of sense of belonging and searching for it through their relationships,  - usually through their sexual relationships.  This usually puts a strain on the emotional aspect of their relationships.  Also, there is usually an undercurrent of guilt associated with their sexuality.  This causes a subconscious desire for punishing the self, and it also further diminishes their sense of self worth.  These issues find their way into the persons relationships.  This commonly causes a frustration - loss- guilt vicious cycle because of the different complications in their relationships that arise  because of their emotional issues.  Most AIDS sufferers are extremely sensitive and compassionate people.  In order to survive, it is essential that they understand that they are strong, loved and valued by those around them.  They have to accept that their sexuality is their own right, and the lack of acceptance by others is a lesson that the others have to learn in life, not something that should be seen as a reason to punish themselves.  But this acceptance cant happen unless they first learn to love themselves for who they are, regardless of anyone else’s opinion.  This change in their state of mind will adjust their emotional selves.  The immune system is known to interact with the emotional state of being and their bodies will strengthen and they can begin to rebalance and heal.

Cancer - There are many physical toxins which are known to cause cancer (cigarettes, chemicals…)  However, it has become understood that the vast majority of people with cancer are also people who have harbored emotional trauma within themselves.  Hurt, rejection, disapproval and anger are the types of emotional suffering that most of these people have buried deep within themselves.  Usually, these people are very sensitive and capable of giving alot of love.  Unfortunately, they received emotional blows at one point in their lives, and harbored this grief. Disapproval and  rejection from others seems to be a common element harboring in their psyche.   It has been known that this heavy load of buried emotional baggage became too much of a burden on the body, eventually causing the abnormal cell growth to flourish in a body with weakend defenses.  People with cancer need to look deep inside and face the emotional wound that they carry.  Although this is extremely painful for many people, (which is why they buried it in the first place), it is necessary to release the hurt and anger in order to strengthen the immune system and rebalance the body.  Here, the person needs to learn to let go, to release any anger or humiliation, and to accept any rejection or betrayal that they may have experienced as "history" and to move on.  This emotional cleansing also needs to be done in support with the elimination of all physical toxins in the diet and environment as well.

Multiple Sclerosis is a perplexing condition.  Like cancer, there are known physical causes of the disease.  Many toxins have been implicated, such as immunizations, chemicals, even dairy and wheat products to susceptible individuals.  However, there is an emotional element prevalent in the vast majority of these patients.  A common finding is an emotional trauma  has rendered the person "paralyzed" and unable to move on.  Usually this has been seen as conflicts with their loved ones and increased emotional burdens put on them from othersas well as insensitivity from others in general.  These ms sufferers seem to be very sensitive people, physically and emotionally, eager to please and loving.  They have difficulty accepting behavior towards them that they themselves consider unacceptable.  When other people become emotionally domineering towards them and insensitive, or if they receive emotional blows, they tend to bury this within their emotional self instead of confronting it and causing more hurt and conflict. This gives their immune system more toxicity to deal with.  It is important that they clear this emotional toxicity to achieve balance of their physical and emotional selves, and to heal their overworked immune system.

Depression also seems to stem from the same harbored feelings of anger, hurt and denial.

Alzheimers Disease seems to be a response by many people to shut down and tune out from a world which they cant accept, because it has been too painful, because they suffered loss in it, because they experienced pain or because they felt that they didnt accomplish what they wanted to do.

Diabetes is an expression for many people of their harbored feelings of rejection, abandonment or lack of attention from those they love ( in childhood, adolescense or adulthood). Most often we see this in people who are extremely loving, sensitive and caring, and feel that they do not receive the same attention and love from others as they have given, and they are easily hurt.  Also, some of the people suffering from diabetes actually fear one day facing the condition of being unloved, or being alone.  Most of these sufferers look to replace the attention and comfort that they feel was (or is, or will be, in the future,) missing with sugar.  Even if they dont consume sugary foods, their body is compensating for their state of mind with the glucose imbalance.  Usually these sufferers are overweight as well, which is usually another expression of trying to compensate for the love and comfort which they felt was  not reciprocated to them.

Back problems are usually seen as being caused from excessive emotional burden.

Leg problems are usually emotional burdens as well as a fear of moving ahead because once one does move on, certain emotional issues and situations  will need to be confronted.  It is a way of staying in one place.

Headaches are usually a conflict between what you are perceiving around you and what your emotions and beliefs are.  It comes from disapproving of what you see, or feeling guilty about what you see. Examples of this are dissatisfaction with the workplace, conflict with a decision made by a loved one, feelings of guilt regarding ones behavior itowards the decisions made by others (such as feeling resentment or dissapproval about a family members choice , be it their choice to move away, choice of spouse,etc..).  Therefore, headaches usually arise when you do not want to be somewhere, to hear or see something, or to deal with something, and you do not express or deal with this conflict.  The conflict of "I dont want to" or "I dont like this"  or "I feel responsible for this" going on in your emotional self causes a headache.  These headaches can be eliminated when one accepts and deals with what they dont like, allowing themselves to not participate in things which bother them.  Also, one needs to let go and allow others to live freely and to make their own decisions.  Many times, chronic headache sufferers were stifled, and not allowed to make their own decisions for themselves, and this behavior gets carried down - wreaking more havoc down the chain.

Hemorrhoids are commonly caused by people who do not want to let go.  This could be not letting go of roles they played.  An example of this is the parent who is unable to let go and accept that their child has grown, and doesnt need the same type of parenting as in childhood.  This is a typical situation when the adult tries to hold on emotionally to their role as the parent of a dependent child,  because they identified their sense of self with that role that no longer exists.  Other times we see this is when facing change in ones career, life style , marraige or other meaningful parts of our lives.  The key is to literally let go of what you were and what you did because these were integral to the past and dont belong in the present, and to embrace your new activities and opportunities in life.  Fear of facing the future , coupled with insecurity and hiding behind a role as a measure of self worth is what needs to be addressed.

Heart problems are most commonly developed by the person harboring great conflict within their emotional self.  Usually these people suffer from absorbing too many ideas, actions and behavior from their loved ones and/or working environment which conflicts with their own.  They usually work on overdrive to accept and accomodate these stands, in their attempts to please and provide for others while denying their own desires.  Concurrently they subconsciously punish themselves for not asserting their own desires and personal wishes by eliminating sources of joy, happiness and pleasure for themselves.  This is why we see the classic pattern of overwork, exhaustion and unhealthy living in the history of heart patients.  This develops into a chronic vicious cycle which burdens the heart and eventually physical heart problems develop.  The heart is literally squeezed and compressed in spasm from the emotional conflict and burden a person carries from focusing on pleasing and living for others at the expense of denying themselves and the wishes of their own hearts.

Allergies plague millions of people worldwide each year. Different people are allergic to different types of irritants, but the pain and discomfort they feel is always the same. The stuffy nose, watery eyes, sneezing, and other adverse affects caused by allergies, can make you miserable anytime of the year. Many people resort to using expensive and often unsafe medication to treat their allergies, just to get a little bit of relief. However, there is a better way to get relief, natural allergy cures are both inexpensive and effective, and can often provide you with instant relief.

Prepare a Clean Environment

The first step in treating your allergies with natural methods is to create a clean home environment. Take the time to clean every inch of your home, and to wash all of your clothing and bedding in an allergy free detergent. Removing irritants from your home will ensure that you can breathe easier there.
Consider investing in an air purifier for your home that is made for reducing allergy causing irritants. An air purifier will take in and cleanse the air in each room of your home. They come in a wide variety of sizes, and can clean anywhere from one room to an entire house within a few hours time.

Stinging Nettles

Once used for joint relief many years ago, stinging nettles are also useful when used as an expectorant. They are a wonderful natural allergy cure for helping to clear up your sinuses and solving any breathing problems you may be having as well. The best part is that they are available in convenient capsule form, and can be taken every day.

Gingko Biloba

Gingko Biloba is a sacred Chinese medicine that has many different healing properties. As a natural cure for allergies, it is often used to treat pressure in the sinuses. This unique substance helps to increase circulation of blood and remove discomfort, especially from behind the eye area.

Eyebright

As its name might imply, Eyebright was originally used in Greece to treat diseases of the eyes. Since then, it has been found that Eyebright is effective in treating congestion of the chest, and reduces the allergy symptoms in those who are suffering from hay fever. This herb can be purchased at any health or vitamin store, and is inexpensive as well.

Echinacea

Echinacea is an ancient natural allergy cure once used only by the Native Americans. While Echinacea cannot directly cure your allergies, it can help to boost your immune system, so that your body is better able to fight the effects of allergy symptoms. Since allergies destroy and tear down your immune systems defenses, Echinacea can also help to keep you from becoming ill.

There is no reason to spend a lot of money trying to fight your allergies. Natural allergy cures do exist, and they are just as, if not more effective than expensive prescription medications. With safe natural remedies like the ones listed above, you can breathe easier, and recover faster from debilitating allergy symptoms.

Some companies feel they have a global market ecommerce with an online presence. But are the international clients coming to your online store? And if they are, how did they find you? Does your online website have a real presence in foreign countries?

Once you have a local or national business operating through a website, there are a few steps you can take to develop your market further abroad.

Targeting international markets still involves the same type of market analysis you needed for your current business. Often a bit more market analysis is needed to allow for the cultural adaptation of your products. This market research is multiplied by the number of countries you would like to do business in.

Assess your communication

Then you must step back and look at your current means of communication. The website you have for your own local market. How would foreigners react to your website?

There are a few general questions to ask yourself:

1. Is your website clear and easy to understand?
2. Could an 8 year old easily understand what your company does?
3. Do you only provide an 800 number? Do foreigners know how to reach you? Put in your local land line telephone number. Give your full physical address.
4. Is your order form compatible for international addresses, or does it get stuck if you don’t put in an American State code? Make sure your order forms have enough lines for foreign addresses.
5. Do you use one specific word for things? - having two or three ways for saying one thing makes it harder for foreigners to follow you. Choose between “car” and “vehicle”. It is a good idea to create a glossary of company terms - you will greatly appreciate this later on.
6. Do you use specific cultural expressions or slang? Keep your communication easy to understand by everyone.
7. Does your website refer to specific national holidays? Is that something you should change?
8. Do you have any embedded words in your diagrams? Avoid them and it will make it easy for you to translate any images later on.

Making these changes should not take away the strength of your sales message to your local market. The good practices for an effective website in your local market are very similar. Taking those local good practices a little further will open your website up for international expansion. Your communication will become clearer to your international clients.

Once you make these transitions to your current website you will be on your way to your next transition towards an international business:

Localized Websites

Once you have your main website open for international business. If your website is actually speaking to foreign visitors and not alienating them, then it is time to take your next step in developing a global market presence.

All of your marketing efforts should be aimed at determining where you need to sign up for a localized website.

• Are your current international clients from a concentrated area on the globe?
• Does you market lead you to choose a specific international market?
• Is there a country you feel passionate about and feel there is a market there for your products and services?

Depending on your resources you may only choose to develop one new country market at a time. The more countries you do a market analysis for the easier it becomes.

Some companies at this stage decide to translate their website into 5 languages: Chinese, Japanese, Spanish, French, and German. This can be a wasted investment at this stage. Will your product hit the same emotional buttons in your foreign markets? This is highly unlikely.

Remember Spanish in South and Central America is very different from the language spoken in Spain. And the people are different. French is spoken in several countries too. Which culture is your main target?

Become Acquainted With Your Foreign Market

If you are a small business and or do not want to go to the expense of too many changes in translations, take this process slowly. Take your time to get some detailed market knowledge for your products in the foreign countries. You can do this from your “internationalized” local website.

Work with your current international clients. Run international campaigns in English from your local website that stimulates international market feedback. Use traditional methods of market research and client prospecting by phone. Even when only speaking English you will get some feedback. Keep at it until you feel you are now acquainted with your foreign market.

Localized Websites To Get To Know Other Markets

You now know which country you want to sell to. You may even have decided to target a country that speaks your own language. The next logical step is to create a localized website in your first overseas target market.

So what does a localized website mean? Create a second website for your foreign market. This new website is localized for your new target market. It can be hosted locally or in your foreign market. But it will be submitted to all of the local foreign web directories.

And it will be written specifically for your foreign market. Use your original website as a model to adapt to communicate with your new market. Company branding is important. Truly communicating with your foreign markets in a way that will get them to listen to you is more important. Play around with finding the balance.

One key to successfully finding this balance is using web templates…without text imbedded in the graphics.

At this stage probably only part of your website will be translated. This is not the best scenario. It may feel like a cold brochure. Just be sure to give your international clients access to your local website in English. If they know what to expect in which language and this is clearly indicated on your new website, this is acceptable.

Continue to develop relationships with people in your new markets, do more research, test changes and adaptations to your localized website. With a little bit of follow up and concentrated effort you will become very familiar with your new market. You will learn how to offer your product and services to get sales in a different market.

You will then be ready for the next transition:

A Fully Customized Website

Once you have a localized website adapted to each of your target markets you will want your international clients to feel more familiar with your products and services. You will want to improve the level of communication with your foreign markets.

Your website is now localized. It is already on their territory. The best way to deepen your relationship is to communicate with your foreign markets solely in their language, and to communicate exactly how you would if you were your local competitor.

Foreign Language Communication Strategy

The better you know your foreign markets the more options you will have. At the very minimum you could organize an email campaign in their language. Before doing this, make sure this would be appropriate in their culture. Will your target market read your emails, how would they read your emails?

Foreigners targeting North American business men might be surprised at how many of them use tiny little Blackberry screens to read emails. A country like France with high ADSL penetration might forget that other countries are not so lucky and they should therefore send appropriate content in their emails.

Easy, Low Cost, Multi-Channel Communication Each Month

Once these elements have been defined, create a simple communication strategy in the foreign language. With a little thought and preparation you can come up with a foreign language communication plan for minimal investment in time and money.

Take advantage of the possibility of re-purposing content to be used in different formats both online and offline. Come up with ways to get your international clients to interact with you, plan beforehand to get feedback and track results.

• Online events
• Surveys
• Competitions
• Ask for feedback campaigns

Use incentives to improve responses. Think of the foreign appeal your incentives might have. This can often translate into something low cost. Tie this with your own local events.

Example Based On A Monthly 2-Page Newsletter Written

One cost effective solution is a monthly 2-page newsletter with 4 articles written by a foreign native marketing professional. This monthly newsletter can be repurposed into several formats using the same content. This will give you a variety of communication touches in your foreign market each month:

• Monthly Newsletter - online and in print
• Weekly Emails
• Podcasts
• Videos
• Monthly Surveys
• Product Reviews
• Case Studies
• …and more, with variety over the year

This entire international client lead generation strategy only by investing in one 2-page translation.

This can work very well if combined with a local event, international exhibition or some other way clients can interact with you.

A great bonus is getting your writer to use foreign language keyword optimization.

This foreign language communication campaign will increase your understanding of your international markets even further. A valuable asset for any business. You will be ready to move towards a fully customized foreign website.

Website totally customized to local cultures

You will need to analyze your market potential again. Do you understand what incites your foreign market to buy your product? If so, then it is time to look at translating your entire foreign language website.

Your own knowledge of your international market will make it easier for you to determine which web pages can be translated and which web pages should be exchanged for pages written in the foreign language by industry experts. Your foreign website will probably not look exactly like your original local website.

Adaptation Phase

Creating a foreign language website can be done in stages. Remember to always think of how your foreign visitors may react to this.

• Welcome them
• Acknowledge their needs
• Show them what you have in place already to help them.

You may or may not have a fully multilingual staff, explain this appropriately somewhere on your website.

“We particularly appreciate all of our foreign clients. Unfortunately we are not able to have staff to speak to you in your own language on a full time basis. Please leave us a message and we will get back to you as soon as we can”.

There’s a holiday marketing campaign going on right now called BOOKS=GIFTS. The program was organized by Random House, with many other publishing companies joining the effort. The goal is to emphasize that books are a more ideal gift than ever this holiday season, with the struggling economy. Many high profile authors like Dan Brown, Christopher Paolini, Judy Blume, Deepak Chopra and Maya Angelou are doing short video clips that share their perspective on why books make great gifts, the gimmick being that each one says “books make great gifts because… (fill in the blank for each author),” and then “Give… (blank).”

In fact, there are several important reasons why books really do make great gifts, for everyone on your list (and especially for kids), this year and any year. Here are just a few:

* Books are evergreen - they keep on giving, well beyond the day they are received. They give with each read, and if they are subsequently shared or passed down, they keep on giving. They are like presents that can be opened over and over again.

* Books send a message to the recipient beyond that of the book itself. They tell the reader, “I care about you. I think of you as this sort of person, and therefore I think you would enjoy this book.”

* Books educate, inform and inspire. They broaden consciousness and perspective. They also cultivate curiosity, nurture the imagination, and promote a sense of wonder.

* Books provide outstanding long-term value for a relatively low cost.

* Giving young people books as gifts subliminally underscores the connection between reading and the joy of receiving, thus strengthening the association between books and pleasure.

* There are countless types, genres, styles, subjects and authors to choose from, maximizing your opportunity to find something uniquely suited to each recipient.

* If you are overwhelmed by options, or not sure where to begin to find the right book for a loved one, there are myriad resources to help. Your local bookseller is trained to help match the right book to the right person. You can also explore Amazon.com’s “listmania” lists and “Customers who bought this book also explored…” feature. You can pick up a copy of the New York Times Book Review, Publishers Weekly, American Libraries magazine or any number of other publications dedicated to reviewing books. There are even websites geared to helping people find books they love - one to explore is www.goodreads.com.

So give the best gift of all this year. Give books!

Do you find traditional white weddings a bit dull and boring? Are you running out of unique ideas for an exciting and adventure filled wedding? Then don’t just vegetate and watch your special celebration turn into nothing but a usual Sunday mass ceremony. Do not let this extraordinary day turn ordinary.

The simplest technique to an adventure packed wedding is novelty in location and bizarre wedding destinations. Equipped with all the budget deals from your tour specialists, your wedding can work out cheaper than a church setting and regular restaurant reception. You can allot a bigger budget for your wedding favors and your bridal shop trips. Posted for you, are noteworthy ideas for your wedding location that will fill your thirst for an escapade.

1) The Rainforest — In Australia, there’s no need of any wedding dresses. There are great wedding deals that take advantage of the forests in Cairns, some package includes flowers, music, and even wedding witness!

2) The Light House — It would be great to hold your wedding at sunrise or sunset. On a light house, the sun-streaked horizon can provide a romantic ambience. You can add a picnic reception near the location too.

3) In flight Nuptials — The main marriage ceremony will take place on the ground. If you are so into flying, you can rent a small plane where you and your partner can exchange vows and a wedding blessing. If money is not an issue, a variety of models ranging from helis and jets are available for your convenience.

4) Ice Wedding — To experience a romantic chilly ride, snow mobiles and sleds are available in Lapland. If you like the combination of white wedding dresses and snowflakes, you can have your special day celebrated here.

5) Temple Wedding — Even perfect wedding dresses are incompatible to the ancient Temple of Poseidon in Greece. This place has easy access to huge hotels that offers competitive wedding deals.

6) Tropical Beach Site — Hawaiian blue waters is probably the most exotic wedding location. In the island of Oahu, marriage is held right on the sand beach with the waves as your background music. Wedding dresses would not be appropriate for this splash-wet wedding. You can also have fun with the luau party to make your day.

7) Hayride Wedding — Should you decide to have it on a fall, this is one unique idea you might want to try. However, you and your guests would not dare fit on wedding dresses on this funky and special day. Pony ride is an option as well. You can enhance the event by having hay bales as seats and bandanna-wrapped wedding favors.

Do the Dive — Hold your breath and exchange your matrimonial vows underwater. A plenty of wedding packages offer underwater ceremonies, you can have it from a boat or on shore. The famous Great Barrier Reef is an option worth picking. You can also have an underwater diving after the nuptial reception.

For a wedding worth remembering, do not settle for less, add a little spice that will jumpstart your special day. You can hold your holy matrimony anywhere on the nowhere and be assured to experience the wonderful thrills it provides.
