Chris Guillebeau sent me a review copy of his new book, The $100 Startup. The basic premise of the book is that anyone can start a business, and that your business doesn’t have to include high upfront costs. I skimmed some of the Amazon reviews, and noticed the same feelings I had when I read through it.
Most of the stories are about “infopreneurs.” An infopreneur is an entrepreneur that deals in information products; things like books, courses, and training. This reflects the author’s background and his current line of work. The other thing noted in most of the Amazon reviews was that most of the example businesses in the book cost more than $100 to get started.
At this point, it’s important to realize that the title of the book is just for the wow factor. Just get past the title and pay attention to the content of the book. [Continue Reading]

Most complaints come from a single thought – life dealt me a bad hand.
Essentially we are saying that we don’t have any control over the bad areas in our life. Do we really not have control over the things we complain about? We have to assume we don’t because assuming the opposite would mean we are complaining about things that we do have control over, and complaining about things that we do have control over makes us look incompetent.

What if you were fully educated about all the countries of the Earth; the good and the bad, the standard of living, the political views, the happiness quotient. Then, after being fully educated about all the places of the Earth, what if you could choose to live in any country? As it stands, we seem to default to a country and are greatly shaped to believe the beliefs of our country. [Continue Reading]

You are beautiful
Have you ever seen and ugly husband and wife couple together. They found beauty in each other. Have you ever had a crush and looked back years later to wonder what the heck were you thinking? They stayed the same; it was your opinion that changed. Did you ever see the movie “Shallow Hal,” where Hal’s fixation on external beauty is reversed by Tony Robbins, making him only able to see the inner beauty? This really happens in a sense; inner beauty can impact how you are seen by others. Internet beauty is the latest variety of fakery; it is all about camera angles and photo shopping.

I released a new ebook on Amazon Kindle today. The book is computer buying guide titled “What Computer Should I Buy?” I have worked in the computer industry for over 15 years, and I often get asked for advice when friends and family plan to buy a new computer. For that reason I put together a guide to help everyone navigate the technical jargon that is so prevalent in the world of computers. I’ve maintained a version of the book over the years, and I finally decided to convert it to Kindle format to sell on Amazon.
For the next two weeks I’m offering a free copy to the readers of Eden Journal.
You can download a pdf version or the kindle version.
Click here for pdf version
Click here for Kindle version
If you have trouble downloading either version, leave a comment below and I’ll email it to you instead.
All I ask is that if you like the book, you take a few minutes to review it on Amazon. Here is a link to the Amazon page where you can leave a review. A positive review will help immensely as it will enable me to stand out from similar books that have no reviews.
Also, as you are reading through the book, if you notice any typos, find it missing any important info, or find any sections unclear, please leave me a comment below so I can address the issues and update the book. (Ignore the extra table of contents in the Kindle version, I am playing around with the TOC formatting.) My goal is to produce the most useful guide to buying a new computer, and your comments and suggestions will help greatly.

I love seeing kids with incredible talent. It’s fun to watch and imagine what it must be like to have an amazing talent at a young age. Today I want to share a couple of videos from VazquezSounds. VazquezSounds is a musical group consisting of three siblings, Gustavo, Abelardo and Angela Vazquez (ages 15, 13, and 10 respectively.) They are very talented, with Gustavo and Abelardo playing multiple instruments and Angela singing like a pro.

Yesterday we saw an epic cello battle. Today we are moving on to another stringed instrument in our YouTube creativity series, the violin. Violin is one of my favorite instruments. I just love the sound that little stringed instrument creates.
Today we are featuring the super talented Lindsey Stirling. She is a classically trained violinist that adds a little kick to the classic sound. I’m sure you’ll love the energy in her videos. The upbeat sound and energetic dancing can really make you feel the good vibes emanating form Lindsey and her violin.
