While we might not like to admit it, image and web relationships hold an extreme force in today's world. Take a look around the World Wide Web. Every web site has its own image, its own feel, its own flavor, what have you. Compare this to people. How do you perceive your best friend? How do you perceive him now?
People are superficial. This is a sad but true fact about the human species. The way we view the outside world holds tremendous influence over how we feel on the inside. We should learn to cultivate peace inside, so that we are calm and strong no matter what happens outside of us. However, image and the world's perception of a website will have strong implications for any web business. This means that superficiality will often affect people's view of one another. This is true in the business world, just as it is true in the dating world.
Be Who You Are, And Dress Up Well (Digitally)
Before you start your blog or site, you should have a definite idea of what kind of vide you want to project. This is something that will affect your interchange with other people online. It should also be relevant to whatever business you are doing, or whatever subjects you are interested in.
If you've got a great online image, you can enjoy huge web traffic even if your content is mediocre. This is sad but true, but internet savvy people realize this and use it to their advantage.
Climbing the PR Mountain
Recently, an innovative technique has arrived that has resulted in overnight web success for various bloggers. In other words, the amount of people reading their blog has skyrocketed. Many people were raving about this strategy, saying it's the newest thing that has come along.
However, if you think about it, the idea is archaic. This is the Spartacus theory. Spartacus was a Roman slave who stood up to the Empire, and because he was a brazen maverick standing up to an empire, he was able to command a whole army of slaves to rebel with him.
Bloggers have been employing this strategy as well. One blogger will read what the most established fat cat has been writing, and she will challenge it. Her maverick attitude will surprise the other people who read the blog, thus guaranteeing her strong links. However, one must be an expert on whatever subject one is talking about. You must have credibility to employ this strategy.
Blogger Without A Cause
There's also the Blogger Without A Cause theory. In this variation, the blogger cultivates a rebel imagine in order to attract followers. This is done by attacking an established blogger successfully, with logic. However, you can also include this theory in your own blog by posting challenging statements on your blog.
Korn Look In The Mirror
My husband was 241 lbs. and had a triple bypass six years ago. Today he weighs 178 lbs. and his cholesterol is 108. I never lied to him about his food; I just neglected to mention that I did things like replacing the ground beef in his chili with veggie protein crumbles (from the frozen food case) and the shredded cheddar was veggie cheese from the supermarket produce department. Believe it or not the shredded veggie cheddar tastes and melts so much better than the regular no-fat cheddar. He loves it! I finally had to tell him why he was losing so much weight. He was beginning to think there was something terribly wrong with him.
I bought a cook book with lots of creamy comfort foods that he always craved. None had the heavy cream, butter and cheese that comfort food usually has. I learned how to substitute fat-free half & half or evaporated skim milk for the heavy cream. I used margarine with no trans-fat and after a while, I didn't need a special cookbook. It was easy to convert any recipe to low fat, low calorie, low anything.
Here's a good example of a recipe conversion: Original recipe was made with veal not chicken. I used healthy olive oil and margarine, reduced both to 1 ? teaspoons. The half-and-half was replaced with the fat free kind.
Chicken in a Creamy Mustard Sauce:
2 chicken breasts (boned & skinned)
1 ? tablespoon flour
? teaspoon each salt & pepper
1 ? teaspoons each olive oil & margarine
? cup each diced onion & sliced mushrooms
? cup fat-free half-and-half or evaporated skim milk
1 tablespoon each Dijon & fresh parsley
1 ? teaspoons lemon juice
Dredge chicken in flour, salt, & pepper. In a non-stick skillet heat oil over medium heat, add chicken and cook, turning once, until browned on both sides and cooked throughout (about 2 minutes per side). Remove chicken.
In same skillet heat margarine until bubbly; add onions & mushrooms. Saut? until lightly browned. Reduce heat, add half-and-half, mustard, parsley and lemon. Stir constantly until sauce comes to a boil and thickens. Serve over the chicken.
Learn this method of good eating; forget the fad diets and the pills. It took a long time to put that weight on. It will come off, but not in 6 weeks like the skinny models on your TV screen. Have patience! Don't have the mindset of a dieter. Remember, you are not starving. You are eating delicious, tasty food.
Stop killing your husband and the kids with what you think is kindness cooking. Serve more vegetables and salad. Get healthy and then look in the mirror and be proud of your accomplishment!
