			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Zurieka and James Model</strong> are a normal, married couple who challenged themselves to a purpose greater than themselves.</p>
<p>The couple love trotting around the globe, meeting new and  interesting people and discovering different cultures.  They are both creative, passionate people who love and respect nature.</p>
<p><strong>Zurieka and James don&#8217;t live to work, they work to live.</strong>  They both wanted to serve more fully in their <strong>volunteer work</strong>, and did not want to conform to the rules of the rat race.  They chose to empower themselves as <strong>entrepreneurs</strong> and enjoy the flexibility of working a <strong>mobile business</strong> from anywhere worldwide.</p>
<p>Freedom to choose when and where to work is very important to Zurieka and James, since their volunteer work is also on a global scale.  The ability to have a business that can work for them anywhere, is essential.  Zurieka and James to write their own pay cheque rather than have someone else write it for them&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Do you feel as if you are chasing your dreams? Perhaps the career you wanted isn&#8217;t all it&#8217;s cracked up to be? Perhaps you feel overworked and underpaid? Maybe the career you chose doesn&#8217;t value you enough. Do you feel appreciated by others? Maybe you are in a thankless job. Have you lost your determination and drive to succeed? You might have had ambitions once that you put on the back burner. Do you want to become an Internet entrepreneur but don&#8217;t know where to start? You may be unhappy commuting and would love an opportunity to work from home. Don&#8217;t give up on your dreams because I may be able to help you!</p>
<div id="article-content">
<p>I wonder if you are a local in your community? Are you living in the place of your birth? Perhaps you moved away from your home town because you were looking for other opportunities. Maybe you were seeking better education or business prospects. Do you love where you are living now? Is that higher education paying off? Have you found a lucrative career that is providing you with a comfortable income for you and your family?</p>
<p>Whether you are single, young and starting out, married and have a family or other responsibilities, we all have a basic need to feel fulfilled like we have accomplished something worthwhile in our lives. You may even be coming up for retirement or are already retired and you look back on your youth and years gone by reflecting on whether you lived the best life that you possibly could. We all have regrets because we&#8217;re imperfect and make mistakes. Perhaps we sought a high profile career and climbed the corporate ladder making shed loads of money and all of a sudden we&#8217;re hit with the reality that we haven&#8217;t seen our children grow up or we haven&#8217;t taken the time to check up on our aging parents. Maybe we acted irrationally or too impulsively when we were younger making life changing mistakes and having to bear the consequences of those actions thereby losing out on other opportunities that may have come along.</p>
<p>Whatever your personal circumstances you are never too old (or too young) to learn. You may already be successful in business but want more time with your family and friends because that corporate environment is keeping you in the office or travelling around the world (not for pleasure) too often. Or you may be a family person seeking to do the best you can for your family but you just don&#8217;t have the resources to care for everything. You might be retiring soon and don&#8217;t know if your pension plan will be enough to live on for the rest of your days. Or you may be retired and want something to keep you occupied and supplement your pension with a healthy residual income.</p>
<p>Have you ever considered a business opportunity that will allow you to work from home? You will not only get to see your family more often but you will also get to spend more quality time with them. Whatever you put into something is what you get out. If you were given an amazing work from home business opportunity with all the tools, training and leverage you need to become successful wouldn&#8217;t you take it? I mean who likes commuting in traffic every day or being shoved around by a bunch of aggressive and unfriendly public transport commuters every day of their life?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Going from employee to entrepreneur has been a transformation! No more rat race, no more commuting, no more boring board meetings, no more pithy pay check, no more office politics, no more regimented hours, no more restricted annual leave time, no more boss! How will you start your week this Monday?</p>
<div id="article-content">
<p>I did the exact same thing that many of you have done on a daily basis. Agonizingly getting out of cosy and comfortable bed on a Monday morning, getting ready and off to work bleary eyed and still feeling like I could sleep for a few more hours. There I was waiting for the next bus or train on a freezing cold winter&#8217;s day amidst thousands of other sombre faced individuals heading in the same direction as me day in and day out.</p>
<p>Squeezing on to public transport with a mass of individuals some rather aggressive and unfriendly, some depressed and filled with despair, there never seemed to be anyone smiling, happy and confidently focused on getting to their place of employment. The weekend seemed like a distant dream and now a full week of woeful work lay ahead and the cycle began all over again.</p>
<p>I remember feeling like the life was draining from me. I had no purpose and no direction. It all started to become so mundane, so stale and so debilitating. When was it ever going to end? Working for a miserable salary, making my boss rich, living from pay check to pay check and still having nothing to show at the end of another month was sickening.</p>
<p>I decided to reclaim my life. I was losing myself in this maze and I needed to find something that exhilarated me and made me feel liberated, passionate to rise and shine in the mornings and feel like I had accomplished and achieved so much more than the daily grind every day. When I decided to actively make the changes in my life, that&#8217;s when the dark, dismal shadow lifted and hope became a waking dream.</p>
<p>Going from employee to entrepreneur has been a transformation! No more rat race, no more commuting, no more boring board meetings, no more pithy pay check, no more office politics, no more regimented hours, no more restricted annual leave time, no more boss! How will you start your week this Monday?</p>
</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://zurieka-model.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Business-Leadership.png"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-946" title="Business Leadership" src="http://zurieka-model.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Business-Leadership.png" alt="" width="250" height="178" /></a>Many concerned people in India are becoming involved in water conservation. Some have been recognized internationally with awards, like Rajendra Singh, who received the prestigious Magsaysay Award for community development in 2001. Singh established a nongovernmental organization, which he utilised to revive the almost extinct Aravari River in the state of Rajasthan, a boon to a state with 8 percent of the country&#8217;s population and only 1 percent of its water resources.</p>
<p>Industrialists observe the benefits of rainwater harvesting to supplement city water supplies. In a factory on the outskirts of Bangalore, in south India, a simple, inexpensive system of roofwater harvesting was erected. The rainwater, which formerly was lost on the highway was channelled into a tank with a capacity of 10,000 gallons or 42,000 litres. During monsoon time, 1,300 gallons or 6,000 litres a day of harvested water is processed for cleaning the food vessels and the factory canteen. No water is unnecessarily drawn for these everyday purposes from the city supplies.</p>
<p>You may feel it&#8217;s just &#8216;a drop in the bucket&#8217;. Picture it in this way; imagine you have a bank account to which money is added once a year. For your daily requirements, you have to withdraw from your account, but gradually you take out more than you put in. One day you will have an overdraft. If, however, for a few months of the year, you get work with more than sufficient pay to cover your daily requirements, your account will have a chance to accumulate. Regular cash flow is essential to maintaining a healthy savings reserve. Now apply this method to water conservation. Multiply your small savings millions of times, and what does it equal? Replenished water sources, a raising of the water table, a filling up of aquifers, and a supply of water to fall back on when the &#8220;pay&#8221; in the form of harvested rainwater ends. Remember, available water is limited; there can be no overdraft when there is no available water.</p>
<p>Our beautiful earth provides abundantly for its residents. Sadly though, over the centuries man&#8217;s greed and short-sightedness have created ruinous living conditions for millions of earth&#8217;s inhabitants. We just have to note the poor economy as one detrimental aspect of the &#8220;Afflenza&#8221; virus that has infected so many people&#8217;s lives and has spread globally as a result. Poor investment choices, living beyond our means in the age of &#8216;credit&#8217; has led an untold number of people into ruinous financial destruction and despair resulting in economic drought!</p>
<p>In considering the above example and illustration, do you spend more than you earn? Do you trade time for money? If you&#8217;ve been fortunate to give up your job, is your choice of home business the right one? Are you a 3% leader with a vision of something greater than yourself? Do you lead by example and help others to succeed? Finding a good coach, mentor and leader is essential in reaching your goals.

<p>When you think of an entrepreneur what do you think of? According to Wikipedia it&#8217;s described as, &#8220;An entrepreneur is a person who has possession of an enterprise, or venture, and assumes significant accountability for the inherent risks and the outcome. It is an ambitious leader who combines land, labor, and capital to often create and market new goods or services&#8221;. Do you think of yourself as an entrepreneur or as an employee?</p>
<p>Think for a moment of some well known, even famous entrepreneurs. Names like Walt Disney, Donald Trump, Robert Kiyosaki, Oprah Winfrey, Richard Branson, Bill Gates and Simon Cowell to name just a few. How do you feel about these people? Do you think that they are special, gifted or talented in some way that the rest of us &#8220;mere mortals&#8221; aren&#8217;t? What is the X Factor? One dictionary describes it as &#8220;a hard-to-describe influence or quality; an important element with unknown consequences&#8221;. People generally admire successful entrepreneurs like these but do they aspire to be like them? Do you have ambition, motivation and drive to succeed in creating a life of financial freedom, personal development, more quality time and the opportunity to do more of the things that you love to do? If you have strong desire to change your circumstances, find your inefficiencies so that you can eliminate them and find your strengths so that you can multiply them, then you are a strong contender for home business.</p>
<p>If you can actively visualize being your own boss, quitting the rat race and living a life on your terms, then you already have the first steps to mapping out your journey to becoming an entrepreneur. The Internet has become the new way to do business and is fast becoming the most efficient source of income. Learning to leverage the Internet and learning from some of the best Internet marketers in the world can only help you reach your destination more effectively and quicker!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://zurieka-model.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Online-Entrepreneur.png"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-956" title="Online Entrepreneur" src="http://zurieka-model.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Online-Entrepreneur.png" alt="" width="303" height="223" /></a>In these uncertain times, many people are experiencing workplace depression. The Guardian of London reported that &#8220;In the workplace . . . anxiety, burnout and depression are spiraling out of control&#8221;.</p>
<p>According to the UN&#8217;s International Labour Organisation, up to 3 out of every 10 employees in the United Kingdom are experiencing mental-health problems, and 1 in 10 workers in the United States reportedly suffers from clinical depression. Nearly 7 percent of early retirements in Germany are due to depression. Over half of Finland&#8217;s work force suffers from stress-related symptoms. In Poland, anxiety resulting from soaring unemployment rates increased by 50 percent in 1999, while suicides also rose. The report predicts that with the continued shift to new technologies and management methods in the workplace, depression will grow dramatically. It warns that &#8220;by 2020, stress and mental disorders will overtake road accidents, Aids and violence as the primary cause of lost working time.&#8221;</p>
<p>Bleak and distressing reports, but evidently something we all need to consider seriously. Is our workplace killing us? We could open up an entire debate about that, however in the interests of getting straight to the point, have you been eager to quit the rat race and favour quality family time in working for yourself rather than an employer? Have you been seeking a business where you could work from home, in the garden, in the park or on the beach anywhere in the world? Do you have an entrepreneurial mindset with a disciplined and focused work ethic doing whatever is necessary in order to succeed in home business? Have you been searching for a business plan that will afford you the opportunity to fire your boss, quit your day job and enable you to become an entrepreneur?</p>
<p>Well if you already have a strong and focused mindset, if you are questioning why you are doing what you&#8217;re doing day in and day out and getting no-where, then you are on course towards becoming an entrepreneur. Finding the right business platform is essential to becoming a success or failure. With so many business plans out there today it&#8217;s often difficult to find the needle in the haystack. However, if you have a strong magnetic pull towards a certain business then it&#8217;s wise to do some research and due diligence, check it out and see for yourself if it&#8217;s something that could enable you to throw in the towel on corporate business and the daily 9-5 grind!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Times are changing. Globally, traditional businesses have been affected by the economic downturn as well pressure to conform to environmental changes. Employers and employees are increasingly disloyal and unreliable, which is all contributing to a vanishing work ethic&#8230;</p>
<p>The Futurist magazine reported that &#8220;55% of the top executives interviewed in the United States, say that erosion of the work ethic will have a major negative effect on corporate performance in the future.&#8221; The magazine further went on to state that &#8220;a number of factors may cause such a decline, including children who &#8220;watched their parents remain loyal to their employers, only to be downsized out of work.&#8221;</p>
<p>This has contributed to many of the post-baby-boom generation viewing work as &#8220;a means to their ends; money, fun and leisure.&#8221; The article stated that for this reason, &#8220;job security and high pay are not the motivators they once were.&#8221; A couple of current symptoms of the vanishing work ethic include increasing sluggishness and abuse of sick leave among workers.</p>
<p>Do you feel sickened at the thought of going into your job everyday? Do you feel like the daily commute is wearing you down? Are you burned out by gruelling hours and no overtime pay? An increasing number of individuals in the work place are beginning to feel the same way. The vast majority of the employed population are weary and increasingly concerned about their job security. Are you a hard worker in a corporate organisation that fails to acknowledge your diligent efforts? Are your personal relationships suffering as a result of never having enough quality time to spend with your loved ones?</p>
<p>If you are working hard for very little (not necessarily from a monetary perspective), and have an entrepreneurial mindset, then perhaps you would consider self-employment. I&#8217;m not talking about a traditional brick and mortar style business though. In this day and age, traditional business models are failing people. There are crippling overheads and hassles such as unreliable employees, insurance, security risks and so on involved in traditional business. Investment is usually on a large scale and profit is small. Actually reaping the benefits of profit may take a few years if you&#8217;re fortunate. If you are tired of commuting and all the costs involved in using transport on a regular basis, not to mention the environmental factors, then you may wish to work from home.</p>
<p>These days the Internet has taken households by storm! Online business appears to be the new age way to do business! It affords us the opportunity to be home based, from anywhere worldwide! Nowadays the Internet connects us with like-minded individuals on a global scale, thereby making the world an increasingly smaller place. Imagine choosing who you do business with on a global scale! Imagine having the choice to live anywhere you fancy in the world!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://zurieka-model.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Happy-Gecko.png"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-944" title="Happy Gecko" src="http://zurieka-model.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Happy-Gecko.png" alt="" width="177" height="177" /></a>Quite often we come up against obstacles and challenges that may cause us to &#8216;slip&#8217; off our surface or distract our course of direction. Entrepreneurs in online marketing have a lot to contend with. It&#8217;s easy to become distracted, frustrated and irritated with your online business. Keeping focused on the goal requires fervent attention and dedication if true success is to be achieved.</p>
<div id="article-content">
<p>However, it is also easy to become unbalanced. Endeavouring to multi-task a hundred different things, being disorganised and not keeping healthy and fit will impact your overall well-being causing your business to suffer. Fear of failure and losing the plot can make it all too easy to &#8220;throw in the towel&#8221; when the &#8220;going gets tough&#8221;.</p>
<p>Perseverance is essential if we&#8217;re going to stick to the task at hand. Consider these 7 points:</p>
<ol>
<li>Recall your goals in launching your online business.</li>
<li>Clearly identify why you are doing this and what you hope to achieve as realistic aspirations.</li>
<li>Give yourself a practical time period in which to achieve this goal, perhaps no less than 12 months.</li>
<li>Stick to a schedule so that you keep balanced and organised.</li>
<li>Keep a diary of all the tasks you were able to accomplish on a daily basis so that you can monitor your progress and witness results firsthand.</li>
<li>Prioritise these tasks with the important money making strategies first, and less important tasks can be left until last in the day.</li>
<li>Be patient and remember that every entrepreneur has at one time or the other felt similarly in online marketing.</li>
</ol>
<p>Consistency is vital in achieving your business goals. A solid coach, mentor and leader has true staying power. This is a person that perseveres through the tough times and faithfully endures to achieve that ultimate goal at the end! This is a person who not only helps himself achieve success but also his or her team no matter what it takes!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://zurieka-model.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Working-At-Home-Naturally.png"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-965" title="Working At Home Naturally" src="http://zurieka-model.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Working-At-Home-Naturally.png" alt="" width="170" height="224" /></a>As time moves on, we humans are becoming increasingly concerned with our environment. With the onslaught of climate change we have been forced to reassess our carbon footprint. Terms such as &#8220;global warming&#8221; are becoming the norm in the media today. Although we can&#8217;t do anything about this on a massive scale as individuals, we can still contribute to a somewhat cleaner and healthier environment by making active changes to the way we do things today on a personal level. Have you ever considered a &#8220;work from home&#8221; solution?</p>
<p>Scientifically many of us are in agreement that the earth has buckled under contributing factors such as harmful gases and an increasing rise in pollution. We contribute to our environment in how we expend energy even on a personal scale. In particular using public transport and vehicles that are not energy efficient or healthy for the environment contributes to our carbon footprints. Office buildings with large quantities of technical equipment are radiating extreme amounts of heat into the atmosphere. Reports have been written on the harmful causes of working in such an environment day in and day out besides the fact that we are travelling along with thousands of commuters on public transport which in itself raises other questions regarding our personal health and overall well-being.</p>
<p>Well, how can we personally change the course of our footprints? Have you considered working from home? Today, in this unsure global economy more and more people are considering becoming entrepreneurs and quitting the rat race to find a better work life balance. People have realised that strength of relationships is more important than the accumulation of vast amounts of wealth and having no-one special to share these riches with. More people search for home business ideas in the pursuit of more quality time and the choice to write your own pay check. Despite these uncertain times, global Internet business is on the rise and more people are turning to the Internet to make money online.</p>
<p>So if you are concerned about your family and the natural environment in which you live, then take action to change your life no matter how small this might be on an individual scale. Choose a better quality of life for yourself and your family by learning how to take advantage of the growing trend in network marketing. Choose to live a healthier life naturally and start your own home business sharing the fruits of your labour with your family.
