Imagine this nightmare scenario…

You’ve spent considerable time and energy putting together what you consider to be a fair proposal for a decorative painting job that you really want to land. You’re finally sitting in front of your client revealing each intricate
detail of the finish that you want to create on their walls.

Your client seems excited and eager to get started. At
last, you reveal the total estimated cost of the project. Your
client is speechless and just gasps at you in wide-eyed
astonishment muttering that this is a lot more than she’d
hoped.

Are you left scratching your head wondering where you lost your client in your sales pitch? It’s simple. You didn’t
get a feel for your client’s budget during your initial
consultation.

Most clients won’t reveal their budget to you even if you ask them because they always want to get a lower price. So
ultimately you need to know a couple different ways of
discovering out how much money your client is willing to
spend.

The first way is to come prepared with a sample price list of all the wall finishes you do. This is not a price list,
per se, but a general list that breaks down the starting
rate for a basic room that measures 12 x 12 feet with 8 foot
ceilings.

So for instance, let’s say your starting rate for a
colorwash finish on a basic room size of 12 x 12 x 8 is
$500. You show your client this price on your list and tell
them that this is your starting rate and that you still need
to factor in windows, doors, actual measurements of the
room. By doing this your client will have some indication
of your prices when you do come up with your actual bid
amount.

The second way to gauge your client’s budget is by using
your samples. After you’ve been decorative painting for
awhile you’ll have a good idea how long each finish takes
you to accomplish from planning to completion. So if you
take the total cost of the finish (including materials and
labor costs) and divide by the square footage of the room
you’ll come up with an average cost per square foot. Take
this amount and write it on the back of the sample of this
finish in black marker.

As you’re reviewing your samples with the client you can
either casually point out the cost per square foot or let
them see it as they’re flipping the pieces over. You can
guarantee they’ll be sitting there doing some quick
calculations in their head as they’re looking at the square
footage cost for each finish.

If you’re worried about whether your bid is too high which is causing your client to now flinch at the price, there are a couple of things you can do to prepare yourself to bid
fairly.

First, do your homework in regard to the going hourly or
square footage rate in your area. Call around to some other
faux finishers or decorative painters to find out what they’re charging. When you’re speaking to them pretend you’re a buyer and ask for their basic rates. Now you’re armed with comparative prices.

Should you bid high or low on a project? I’ve always gone by the rule that if there are a lot of obstacles that will
be a nuisance such as high ceilings, lots of windows,
children or pets that’ll be running around, or if the client
will be difficult to work with, that I can justifiably
charge more for the contract.

Sometimes, when you’re first starting out and you’re really hungry for the job you may find yourself bidding low just to land the contract. On the other hand just make sure that you’re not bidding so low that you’re working for minimum
wage.

Also, when contractor’s bid low they skew the value of the work within the market unfairly for other decorative
painters, which is unfair to the industry as a whole.
Remember what they say: “if you get all your bids, you
probably are not charging enough”.

As you can see, there’s a lot to consider when you price
out a painting job. But with a little preparation you can win
more painting contracts and prepare your client for your
proposal.

Everybody at one point experiences anxiety when faced with a stressful or worrying situation. Anxiety is the feeling of fear, apprehension and worry, accompanied by nausea, palpitations, chest pain, and breathlessness. Sometimes this can interfere with your normal life. Excessive anxiety can be linked with other psychiatric conditions, such as depression.

Anxiety can be in many forms. It may be a fear of snakes, a fear of heights or stage fright, or it could also be nonstop worry about your parenting skills or constant fretting about success at work, etc.

Components:

Anxiety is said to have four components:

Cognitive components: This imposes fear of uncertain danger.

Somatic components: When faced with a frightening situation your blood pressure and heart rate are increased, you tend to sweat, and blood flow to the major muscle groups is increased. The somatic signs of anxiety might include pale skin, sweating, trembling, and pupil dilation.

Emotional components: The emotional components of anxiety cause a sense of dread or panic, nausea, and chills.

Behavioral components: This would lead to both voluntary and involuntary behaviors, and you maybe directed at avoiding the source of anxiety which is quite common.

Types of Anxiety and the symptoms:

There are various types of anxiety - Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Panic Disorder and Agoraphobia, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Post traumatic Stress Disorder, Social Anxiety and specific phobias. Anxiety Disorder is very common throughout the world. It is a chronically recurring case of anxiety that can seriously affect your life. People with this disorder feel afraid of something but are unable to articulate the specific fear. If you are constantly worrying, and have a hard time controlling your worries then you might be suffering from anxiety disorder.

Some of the common symptoms of anxiety disorder are:

• Muscle tension
• Heart palpitations
• Dizziness
• Fatigue
• Shortness of breath
• Sweating
• Nausea
• Cold hands
• Jumpiness
• Difficulty falling asleep
• Hot flashes or chills
• Diarrhea and irritated bowel syndrome

Anxiety can make you cranky and irritable. You may get tired easily and often suffer from insomnia. It is very important that you seek professional medical help. For the initial diagnosis of this problem, a good assessment is required by taking a standardized interview or questionnaire procedure with expert evaluation. There should be a thorough examination to find out the cause that could have triggered this condition. If the patient has a family history of anxiety disorders then this could be a possibility.

Treatment:

You can get help and come out of your fear. There are four types of therapy that have proved to be helpful and they have been used successfully to address the symptoms of anxiety disorders.

Behavior Therapy: Here you are made to face your fear in a planned environment, and using different relaxation techniques, you are made to accept and overcome your anxiety and panic. This helps you to become more confident about managing fear and anxiety and also prepares you to face any kind of inducing situations.

Cognitive-behavioral therapy: This is the most popular and effective type of psychotherapy to overcome your anxiety. The goal is to understand your thinking process and help you to develop coping skills before your anxiety takes over. This helps you:

• Challenge false or self-defeating beliefs
• Think positive

Psychodynamic psychotherapy: This therapy helps those who have fear because of unconscious mental conflict. You are made to uncover the conflict as a means to stop the fear-causing anxiety and panic.

Alternative therapies: Different therapies have been developed for treating anxiety, like EMDR - a therapy that utilizes rapid eye movement, repetitive sounds and tapping to reintegrate an “out of sync” brain. Even acupuncture is being used to treat anxiety.

All these therapies depend on various subjective factors, such as therapist competence. It is advisable to go to only a well known and experienced psychotherapist. Self help and relaxation techniques also play an important role in relieving anxiety symptoms. Improving your eating habits and reduction in caffeine and sugar intake also helps. Exercise and a relaxation technique such as yoga, is also very helpful. Try to reach out to your friends and family and share your troubles; do not let it get accumulated before it hits you hard. Anxiety is very common and you are not the only one, so don’t hesitate to seek help.

Multivitamin supplements are an excellent source of the daily recommended allowance of vitamins that you can’t get from a good diet alone. Food is no longer as nutritious as it once was. There are fewer farms, and more crops are being grown on less land. Have you heard of any new farms being opened lately? Or an area being cleared to make room for a farm? Probably not. That is why a daily multivitamin is so important. Just take a pill and you have your daily needs in one easy swallow. Multivitamins are the most convenient way to get vitamins into your body that would otherwise be left out. In this article you will learn what multivitamins do for the body and what the consequences of a vitamin deficiency are. After reading this you will understand why it is crucial to supplement your diet with a multivitamin.

Vitamins are food substances that aid your body’s essential biochemical reactions. There are thirteen known vitamins that are classified as either fat soluble or water soluble. Fat soluble vitamins can be stored in the body for months and come in the forms A, D, E, and K. Your body is able to store enough water soluble vitamins to last only a few weeks. The nine water soluble vitamins are C, B1, B2, B6, niacin, folic acid, biotin, and pantothenic acid.

If you eat a healthy diet with plenty of whole foods and the correct balance of proteins, fats, and carbs, you may be fine. However, if your diet is lacking you should consider investing in a basic multivitamin. The problems that can result from a vitamin deficiency could fill a book. Some of the most basic signs of a deficiency are a greater tendency to feel stressed or sick. Cigarette smoke also depletes vitamin C, calcium, magnesium, vitamin D, vitamin E, and selenium, so if you smoke, make sure that your multivitamin contains these ingredients.

Bodybuilders need vitamins to build muscle and burn fat efficiently. Even though 99.9% of the world’s population is not bodybuilders, they should still take a multivitamin. Women of child-bearing age, people over age 60, pregnant or breast-feeding women, strict vegetarians, people on weight loss diets, and anyone not eating a balanced diet will all benefit greatly from them. But keep in mind that even if you take a multivitamin, you still need to eat a healthy diet. Foods such as vegetables, fruits, and whole grains provide fiber and many other antioxidants not found in any type of pill.

Look for 100% of the daily value for vitamins D, B1, B2, B3, B6, B12, folic acid, and at least 20 micrograms of vitamin K. A multivitamin should not cost more than a few cents a day. You don’t need anything fancy to reap the benefits of daily multivitamin intake. And remember: taking more than 100% of the daily value is not good for you either. In fact, it is harmful because large doses of copper can interfere with your absorption of zinc and vice versa. Large doses of vitamin A and zinc are also worse for you than not taking one at all. I hope that you now understand the basics of multivitamins and will make an educated decision the next time you shop for vitamins. GA-003

One of my favourite things I like to watch is the bloopers and outtakes that are shown of mistakes made during the making of a movie. Most DVD’s have a section of outtakes to be viewed, and often they will set me off laughing, especially when you know what was supposed to happen.

In one sense it seems strange to laugh at other people’s mistakes, and yet we all do it, and our enjoyment is not usually of malicious intent. We laugh because we can all relate and identify how much part of being human such bloopers are!

We all make mistakes, and have many bloopers and outtakes in a lifetime. Some of them may be funny like movie bloopers, a stupid mistake and we are able to laugh at our selves. Other outtakes in life, however, are not funny, and are neither unforeseen nor self imposed. I am referring to the tragic turns of events that happen in life that can turn our life and routine around in a moment. Accidents, disaster, the death of a loved one happen unexpectedly, and can profoundly affect our lives. These are outtakes we would prefer not to happen or even replayed in life. Some of life’s outtakes have the potential to embarrass, humiliate, hurt, or disappoint us and also can stop our hopes and dreams for ever.

Times of crisis and tragedy can not be prevented, but how you handle these outtakes will affect the rest of your life. There is always a choice in any crisis. We can choose to grieve, but cling on to hope and move forward, or choose to cling onto the past and become stuck there. We cannot choose our circumstances, but we do have a choice how we respond to them. We can succumb or overcome, and our choice will determine our future. When we drive a car our focus is the road ahead; if we spend all our time looking in the rearview mirror failure is more or less inevitable! The same is true in life, we will fail, or at best remain at a standstill if we keep looking back and focusing on the events behind us, reliving the past.

A young African-American girl was born to unwed impoverished teenagers, in the racially charged backwoods of Mississippi in the middle of the twentieth century. She was abused by male relatives, and became pregnant at age fourteen. This girl did not seem to have many choices about her future and its potential to turn around towards success. However, this girl determined that these devastating outtakes of her life would not predetermine her future. Despite her circumstances this girl learned how to succeed by working hard, being true to herself and communicating with compassion and honesty.

This woman’s success story may seem like a fairy tale, for Oprah Winfrey is now one of the most well known and influential women in the world. However Oprah would acknowledge that her tragic childhood experiences have helped her remain true to her commitment to persevere and aim for excellence.

Oprah Winfrey is well known for her TV show, O magazine and book club, but also for the way she had explicitly described her own battles with depression, her weight and her relationships. She has made many connections between her past struggles and poor choices to the ‘aha’ moments that motivated her to take those experiences and learn from them, ultimately bringing her to a place more success and respect. Oprah chose to overcome, not to succumb.

Oprah is one of numerous examples of people who overcame the outtakes of their life and did not allow the odds to intimidate them. Just as actors learn from their mistakes and use them to improve their performance, so can we use our outtakes to improve our lives.

Don’t let your outtakes ‘take you out’; use them to take you forward.

When deciding what kind of internet business you want to do, there are a few factors you need to look at before plunging into building your website.

a) TYPE OF BUSINESS

The first thing you need to consider is exactly what kind of business you want to build. There are generally two types of internet businesses out there: a full-fledged online store selling a product or service, or an informational website earning income from affiliate commissions and advertisements.

i) You might want to consider setting up an online store if you fall under one of the following categories:

- You have a product that you are already selling offline, and want to use the internet to increase your market.

- You provide a service (such as consulting or web design) and want to use the internet to sell your services and increase your clientele.

- You do not have a product or service, but want to start an online store by partnering with a product manufacturer or wholesaler.

ii) On the other hand, you might want to set up an informational website and earn from affiliate commissions and advertisements. This is possible if you fall under one of the following:

- You want to create a website about something that you really like or are interested in.

- You want to promote an affiliate program or product that you like and want to tell the world about.

- You want to provide information or compile advice from various sources regarding something that you are good at.

b) INTEREST

Another very important factor is your interest in the topic or industry in which you want to do your internet business. It is not advisable to start an internet business relating to a lucrative industry such as online casinos, but you have no interest whatsoever in casinos, and worse if you have moral issues with the running of casinos.

I just want you to be aware of some of the common pitfalls you might encounter if you get involved in something that you are not quite interested in:

- If you have not much interest in a topic or industry, it will show in the content and quality of your website. It takes someone with considerable interest to perform good research on the topic, and to create a website full of relevant and personal information and content.

- Without continued interest, you will slowly start to find excuses not to work on your website. And internet business is a continuous love affair. It requires constant updates and internet marketing effort to enjoy good success. If you’ve lost interest and start to ignore the business, your profits will also start to decline.

In short, internet business (like any other business) requires genuine effort and interest in order to succeed. And it is a lifelong love affair, not a one night stand!

c) INCOME OPPORTUNITY

However, interest isn’t everything. The income potential is important too. After all, it’s no use laboring over something you love with no profits to show for it. But the good thing is that internet businesses are so cheap to start that it doesn’t take much to make a profit!

i) If you want to setup an online store, don’t just look at how big the market is. You also have to look at how much competition you face in your chosen industry. For example, an online bookstore will have a huge market (almost everyone reads), but there are plenty of competitors out there such as Amazon.com with a bigger wallet and are more established. In cases like these, you will have to consider allocating a larger budget for advertising and attracting customers.

On the other hand, if you want to start a online store selling waterproof cameras for diving, the market might not be all that big (probably just diving enthusiasts), but because there are few competitors, it will be easier for your store to stand out. As they say: “It might not be a big pie, but you’ll get the lion’s share of it”.

ii) If you want to create an informational website, you have to keep your competition in mind as well. In addition, you need to make sure that your selected topic has sufficient income potential such as affiliate programs and advertisements.

These affiliate programs and advertisements should be related to your website. For example, a wedding planning website can promote affiliate programs related to photography and event management, but should not promote an escort service! In addition, every website can earn some extra cash by placing advertisements (not too many) on their webpages. A good ad service is Google’s AdSense program.

d) Commitment

The last factor I want to touch on is commitment to your internet business. There are two types of commitment you should be aware of: money and time.

By its very nature, internet businesses require very little money to start. However, profits don’t come immediately. Websites take time, sometimes as much as 6 months, to start ranking in the search engines and getting traffic. You therefore have to plan for that much time of operational losses (including your hosting costs). If you are in a highly competitive industry, you will also have to factor in your monthly advertising budget.

However, the most important commitment you have to make is your time. As they say: “If you treat it like a business, it will pay you like a business; If you treat it like a hobby, it will pay you like a hobby.”

You need to know how much time you can allocate to the business. A simple informational website can be setup gradually on just one hour a day. However, setting up an online store will require almost full-time effort in the beginning. Once your store is done, then your time commitment will drop.

When you’ve decided what kind of internet business you are interested in, and how much resources to put into it, you can then look at the second step, researching the design and content of your website. You can check out the entire Step-By-Step Guide by visiting the website below.

With a hand held electronic dictionary, you can have a dictionary in your back pocket at all times. Whether you are in medical school and it is a medical dictionary, or if you are in a foreign country and it is a language dictionary, you can use a hand held dictionary to your benefit.

Whatever type that you have, you can benefit from having it with you. Whether it is a pocket PC or cell phone technology, you can have instant information at your fingertips.

How They Can Benefit You

You might be able to benefit from a hand held dictionary in the same way that Tom did. Tom was Executive Coordinator for his business and he was often asked to make speeches and give live reports of what was happening in his business. Well, Tom had been public speaking for a long time and he felt pretty confident in front of his colleagues but writing was not his strong point.

He sometimes went through stress while writing his speeches and reports and sometimes spent hours with a dictionary, a thesaurus and a word processing program to get it all right. But once, while at a business conference in Atlanta , he was asked to fill in for someone who fell sick and give a speech in front of the entire convention. While being in front of people did not bother him, the actual speech writing was a bit of a problem.

So while stuck in his hotel room preparing at the last minute, he got a great idea partly out of desperation. He ran out to the store and purchased a hand held dictionary which helped him write his speech in less than 45 minutes. The next morning he gave a fantastic and intelligent speech and shortly after was offered a promotion. Now his hand held electronic dictionary goes everywhere with him. How can a hand held electronic dictionary help you?

Trying to be environmentally friendly is something that is going to change us all in the far off future. We have Eco Travel, Electric Cars & Biological Diesels to look at now.

There are also several kinds of Bio Fuels. Biological Fuels are many mostly plant based substitutes to oil- based Diesels such as petroleum, diesel & cooking oil. Using biodiesel discharges C02, nevertheless this is equalized through the fact that the crops used to construct it uses CO2 emissions in the environment to grow. Nonetheless the climate advantages of Bio Fuels are hotly questioned, with some green commentators declaring that Biological Diesel cause more damage than good. There are many 2 prime breeds of Biological Diesel and Ethanol. Reduce your carbon footprint with Eco Travel.

As the name suggests, biodiesel is designed for use in diesel cars. Biological Diesel is remarkably similar to veg oil & is manufactured from the similar breeds of plants- oil rich sources such as sun flower, palm, rapeseed and groundnut. Bio Diesel can also be fabricated from sheep fat or oils reused from Italian restaurants. Biodiesel can often be tried smart in some diesel cars, however, at this current time Bio Diesel is much more generally seen in a mix with normal diesel- ordinarily twenty five % biodiesel with regular diesel fuel. This blend should be used by any regular diesel van.

Ever thought about purchasing an eco friendly car? There are two varieties the G WIZ and the Mega City. All of these is genuinely environmentally friendly machines; in fact the electric cars are many an environmental daydream. Electric cars do not create any carbon dioxide emissions in fact more to the point Bio Diesels cars don’t even have an emission pipe. If you power an electric car from renewable energy, it fabricates not any CO2. Though this eco friendly car has legions of advantages it does have quite a few cons as well. The evident one being it is an eco friendly car and it will often only do 96 miles before you may have to charge the batteries and all that usually has to be completed over the course of the night, if you’re arranging on doing a long road trip, this may have to be concluded over the course of quite a few days.

Form is the arrangement of the general structure of an artwork while function is a relation such that one thing is dependent on another. For instance - height is a function of age or price is a function of supply and demand. A function is an abstract meaning which, by itself, has no intrinsic form. Form and function are independent dimensions along which the subject is defined.

Form ever follows function. This was the idea of architect Louis Henri Sullivan. It denotes that the two are intertwined and inseparable. This idea set forth by the architect can also be applied to any type of design - industrial, print, web or product.

Most designers are not aware of this fact. If truth be told, we have seen so many designs so many of them lack form or are deficient with its function. The blatant truth is that even those extravagant corporate sites are often as guilty as others. I can say that it is manifest but it is essential to know the reason why they fail in order to patch things up.

Majority of large corporate sites are packed with functionality for they are equipped with information. The problem though is the lack of pleasant form. On the other hand, small personal sites are often flashy - there are biographies, galleries, portfolios and stories but they lack functionality. These kinds of sites care less about marketability since they mostly do not market.

The general rule is that there will be no form without function and there will be no function without form. The key is equilibrium. The solid balance between form and function is a catalyst to achieve the envisioned idea of excellence. Function must be known first before a form can be developed.

To discover the function is not that easy. Many of the sites still lacks purpose and functionality. Understand your market, know your products and services and how you will carry out your endeavor, by that you can formulate your set of functions.

To formulate a form, try to feel the site, consider its functions, organization, expectators and its structure by then you can create its accurate form. What color will complement the site? Does it need lots of graphics or texts? Is smooth navigation accessible? To know the answer to this queries will give you the idea of what kind of form is needed.

Balance is too hard to capture and seize however, the web is still so young to encourage trials and explorations. No matter how hard it will take us but we should get balance to achieve our ultimate goal.
