Adverts / Ways To Find Effective Business Ideas by bela4(m): 1:24pm On Jun 12, 2009
Business if done carefully may provide you with the riches that you are dreaming of, but if you are careless about it, then you might fall into debt. Therefore, it is very important to find business ideas to increase your income. It can be a difficult process in sorting out the perfect ideas for your business, but with some efforts and spending time on the research, you may actually come up with ideas that will suit your business. Putting yourself as a customer will make you understand the needs of the people, and therefore, will provide you with better ideas for the growth of your business.

One of the most important ways to find business ideas is, understanding the customer. Customers are the main source of your business, as without them, there will be no business. Your business idea should satisfy the desire of the customer and not what you think might be important for the customers. Try to find out the need or desire of the customers. Often, the owners have a tendency to act according to their ideas, and later on, they find that their customers don't want the products that they are offering. So spend some time in understanding your consumers, their needs or desires, and plan accordingly.

To develop a perfect business idea, passion is very important. Passion here is not being obsessed about your products. Passion means showing interest in what you are doing. If you don't have passion in what you are doing, something which doesn't motivate you to work, then it will be very difficult to give your time and energy to make your business successful. It is also very important to understand the type of competition you are in, to develop a perfect business idea. If you don't have any idea about the competition, then your competitors may take the advantage. You will be investing more in the competition of pricing, instead of finding plans to grow your business. By knowing your competitors, you will be able to spend quality time in developing plans for your business.

Knowing yourself is the most important factor in developing plans for your business. You should know your strengths and weakness. You should be willing to give what it takes to achieve success. Many businessmen due to their unwillingness to spend their time, energy and money have failed in developing plans for the growth of their business, and thus, have failed in their business too. Try to avoid distraction that may cause hindrance like your personal financial situation and you will be able to focus on developing plans for the growth of your business and earn more income.

Health / The Many Benefits Of Youths Quitting Smoking by bela4(m): 10:09am On May 02, 2009
We hear so much about the dangers of smoking, but instead, here we are going to take a look on the positive side and consider the benefits of quitting smoking. These apply to a person who is in good health apart from being a smoker.

There are many benefits to stopping smoking, and the good news is that a lot of them start right away.

Almost as soon as you put out a cigarette, the nicotine levels in your body and in your bloodstream start to decrease. When you are a smoker, after a few minutes or hours the levels will drop lower than you like and you will start to think about lighting another. But when you quit, the nicotine in your body keeps on slowly reducing until soon it is completely gone and the addiction is broken.

One of the health benefits that kicks in almost right away is an improvement in blood pressure and pulse rates. The blood becomes cleaner and the circulation is more effective. The heart can work more efficiently, getting more oxygen around the body with less work.

At the same time, your lungs begin to clean out. This process takes a few weeks. During this time you may cough more than you did when you smoked, but do not use that as an excuse to start again. Any prolonged cough should be checked by a doctor, but generally this is a healthy sign that your body taking the chance to get clean again after all those years.

The lungs never clear out completely because we live in a world where there are other types of pollution, but they will soon become much cleaner than a smoker's lungs. Provided you did not already start to develop one of the serious diseases that smokers often get, you have a good chance of living out your natural lifespan as a non-smoker now.

You will notice that you can take exercise more easily. Your heart rate stays slower while you exercise. Your lung capacity will begin to improve, so you do not get out of breath so easily. If you had any minor respiratory problems like frequent colds and coughs or sinus infection, you may find that these do not bother you so often.

The risk of developing major smoking-related diseases begins to reduce within a few months of quitting. These diseases include cancer of the lungs, mouth, throat, esophagus and many other types of cancer. The risk of developing coronary heart disease also decreases.

There are other advantages to quitting smoking in addition to the health benefits for the person who quits. First, there are benefits for your family and anyone that you spend a lot of time with, in not having smoke in the air that they must breathe.

Second, it becomes much easier to get along with non-smoking strangers. Most people in the Western world these days are non-smokers and a lot of them dislike the smell of smoke. They will know if you smoke, even if you do not light a cigarette in their presence. If you are dating or trying to make new friends, or if you work in any situation where you need to influence people such as sales, you will get along much better as a non-smoker.

Third, you have more time and money. A lot of money is wasted on smoking, but people often do not think about the time that is wasted too. You will begin to notice how great it is to be able to do something for several hours without even thinking about going outside for a cigarette.

Bookmark this page and come back often while you are stopping, to remind yourself of some of the benefits of quitting smoking.

Health / The Effects Of Smoking On Our Youths by bela4(m): 10:05am On May 02, 2009
The effects of smoking are wider than many people realize. Everybody knows about how smoking contributes to many cases of lung cancer, but there are many other effects too. Some of these start as soon as a person begins to smoke.

Immediate Effects

- The blood pressure and heart rate go up immediately, with the first inhalations on a cigarette.

- Smoking begins to have effects on the lungs immediately too. Even someone who only smokes occasionally or has only smoked for a short time will find that they are more likely to develop coughs and sinus infections when they have a cold. They will probably also stay sick longer.

- The effect on the blood vessels means that you are more likely to suffer headaches if you smoke.

- Smoking also has effects on the teeth. The cocktail of chemicals in cigarettes attacks the teeth, discoloring them and causing cavities.

- Smoking makes you smell bad to a non-smoker - which is most people these days. Your breath, hair and clothes will smell the worst. You will not be pleasant for a non-smoker to kiss.

- Most people do not like having smoke in the air that they breathe, so many people may avoid your company when you are smoking.

- For both of the above reasons, you will be a less popular date than you would be if you didn't smoke.


Longer Term Health Risks And Other Effects Of Smoking On Our Youths

Smoking contributes to many diseases that involve years of pain and suffering, or repeated bouts of falling sick over many years. These are some of the problems that can occur:

- lung cancer and many other cancers

- emphysema

- chronic bronchitis

- cardiovascular diseases, including heart attacks and strokes

- erectile dysfunction in men

- fertility problems

- less healthy babies

- bloodshot eyes, cataracts, and macular degeneration of the eyes leading to blindness

- wrinkles

Keep in mind that these diseases can start sooner in some people than in others. It is true that a few people live to be 90 and still smoke, but they are unusual. Maybe they still would have lived another 10 years, if they had not smoked. The average person who smokes will be sick more often and have a greater risk of developing any of these diseases than if they did not smoke.

The average life expectancy of a smoker is around 8 years less than a non-smoker. However, it does not work out this way in practice. This figure does not mean that an individual smoker will die 8 years sooner than if he did not smoke.

The truth behind the numbers is that some people are more affected by the toxins in cigarettes and other tobacco products than others. So while you hear of some smokers living to a good old age, the people who do develop serious smoking-related diseases die much younger, often in their 40s and 50s. These diseases can cut 30 or 40 years from a person's life.
