Young children are full of dreams of what they will do, be, see when they grow up. As adults most of us have given up the habit of having big dreams. Or if we do, never following through with them. Why do so many people let their dreams die unlived?
One reason is the negative cynical attitudes of other people. These people are not enemies they are friends, even family members. If our friends are negative towards our dreams or aspirations ?our friends can kill our dreams.
A person gets excited about the possibility of a new business opportunity or a new idea.
They see the opportunity to make money, do more meaningful work, improve their financial future, rise to a personal challenge, change their lifestyle. They get excited about this stimulating new prospect. But then they tell their neighbour about it over the back fence one evening. The neighbour gets a smirk, a laugh that says, ?You can?t do that?, a foot long list of all the problems and obstacles and fifty reasons why they will never make it and are better off to stay where they are.
The person?s enthusiasm disintegrates. They lose all their excitement and self-confidence and begin to think of all the reasons why they can?t make it in a work at home business, instead of the reasons they can succeed in their new investment opportunity. They have let the negative attitude of someone else become more powerful than their belief in their dream of financial independence and more time with the family.
Friends can do more damage than a dozen enemies. Remember, the easiest thing to find on earth is someone to tell you all the things you cannot be. Don?t listen to them. Often they have the best intentions. They don?t want you to be hurt or lose money. Often those that try to steal your dreams are very conservative and have achieved little in their own lives.
It is always the person who has never made $40,000 a year, who knows all the reasons why you can?t make $100,000. If you have a dream, give it a chance to happen. Don?t let your sister-in-law, the plumber or the person in the next office, rob you of that faith in yourself and your new home based business. It is that belief in your dream that makes it into a reality. Don?t let the person who lives on the couch and watches TV every night tell you how futile life is.
Don?t take on other people?s negative attitudes. Surround yourself with positive people. Read inspiring authors. A few suggestions are Susan Jeffers, Paul Hanna, Anthony Robbins and Jim Rohn. Spend at least half an hour a day nourishing your dream. Believe in yourself and you will make your dreams a reality.
If you have that flame of a dream deep down inside you somewhere, do something about it. And don?t let anyone else blow it out. Believe you can, and you will find you can. TRY! You will be surprised at how many good things can happen to you.

The Dangers Of Thinking Too Big And Too Broad
by: Jason Tarasi
Planner before him? he sits puzzled? wiping sweat from his brow. Fighting off an overwhelming feeling of combined fear, wonder, dread and ambition he slowly flips through the pages as he watches the clock counting the hours left in the day. Twenty-four of them ? twenty-four hours a day is all he has. How should he spend them?
Should he finish the website launch that is so close to being completed, or should he work on the e-book that is sure to replenish the dwindling balance in his bank account?
If that site gets indexed by the end of the month, surely the advertising dollars will compensate for the software programmer he hired for product development, but without the money the product launch won?t happen. If he wants that e-book finished he?ll have to do it himself, no money is left to outsource it. The domain for the content site is about to expire. Should he give it up...

Photovoltaic Systems - Energy From The Sky
by: Ross McIvar
As people search for alternatives to fossil fuel energy, solar energy emerges as one of the cleanest and most practical sources of electricity.
Solar panels can be installed on rooftops or any area that receives a lot of sunshine.
The solar panels consist of a photovoltaic system that converts the energy of the sun into electricity.
Photovoltaic systems have existed since the 1950s but only in recent years has the technology matured to the point of making it a viable alternative to power utilities.
Indeed, most solar systems do not replace the utility company, instead they work in conjunction with it to produce extra electricity that can be fed back into the grid.
One of the main problems with solar power is storing it for use during non-daylight hours.
Batteries can be used but they are expensive and have a limited life span.
