ARTArticleApple's Business Unit StrategyAdmiring Apple for only its well-designed products and clever commercials is only scratching the surface. Apple is actually a great case study on brilliant business modeling. Apple treats every product as its own business unit. What this means is that every product line could exist as its own standalone store. Even though all Apple products fit into each other in some way, every Apple product also has to standalone in terms of generating revenue.ARTArticleAre You One of the Normal Crazy People?Join all the dots plotted by over seventy years of psychological research and you’ll immediately come to the blindingly obvious conclusion that normal people are crazy. You probably don’t even have to look far for concrete evidence of this psychological fact. Normal crazy people are all around us! You’re probably one yourself!!ARTArticleAre You Proactive or Reactive?Are you proactive or reactive when faced with life’s challenges? Throwing your hands in the air and acting as if you have absolutely no control over what happens doesn’t do any good. That’s being reactive and staying stuck. To be proactive, take the initiative, take action with steps to face any challenge using clear and balanced confidence.ARTArticleArticle Five: Your Quantum Purpose in Life“There is very little doubt that our universe is embedded in a vastly bigger megaverse.”
Leonard Susskind
It is slowly becoming reality for many of us that the reality of Einstein’s space-time is one of consciousness, quantum minds and souls.
The realisation is also emerging that it is those minds and those souls that individually and collectively create the informational ‘material’ environments through which all evolve.ARTArticleArticle One: The Einstein Visualization FormulaArticle One

The Einstein Visualization Formula
With yesterday’s science the pendulum of mankind's beliefs in any God, had swung to a dogmatic lack of any belief outside of particles.ARTArticleArticle Seven: Quantum Mind DualityQuantum Mind Information: A Series of Articles on the Quantum Theory of Mind and Soul Evolution
The Duality of Quantum Mind and Soul of the Universe
In order to create a holographic universe that is conscious from within, the consciousness prime energy had to create a duality without separation.
By focusing the universal consciousness to be both universally wide while also being of infinite numbers of finitely-limited individual consciousness points, this was achieved.ARTArticleArticle Six: The Quantum HologramA Series of Articles on the Quantum Theory of Mind and Soul Evolution
"The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present"
Abraham Lincoln
The Quantum Hologram
A BBC Programme I watched recently began:
“There is a strange and mysterious world surrounding us. For most of the time it’s hidden from our senses.” So began the narrator on a BBC Horizon programme. He went on to say... “The quest to explain the nature of reality is one of the great scientific detective stories.”ARTArticleArticle Three: The Quantum Mind and Soul Half of Darwin's TheoryArticle Three of: Quantum Mind Information
Consciously evolving oneself and moving on from where you are to where you dream of being, lies in understanding the energy links of consciousness that create time and space.
1. It is these energy links of consciousness that create the present moments of each of us.
2. It is those energy links that caused us to be born to the parents, the siblings, friends and yes, the enemies, the sex and even the countries of our births.rARTArticleArticle Two: The Quantum Ghost UniverseArticle Two: The Quantum Ghost Universe

Quantum Mind and soul Evolution is about personal development and success through evolving one’s mind and soul, so ensuring oneself as amongst the fittest to survive. However this ‘survival’ means rather more than it meant in the Darwinian Theory.
The majority of people knowing little of this and caring less do nothing to consciously evolve themselves, which results in lives of chaos, poverty and disease.ARTArticleAt the MallDerron liked to play his Xbox as much as he could in between work and school. He competed with his friends and family as well as people online. His new game just came out and he just had to beat everyone’s score. He always had to have the highest score.ARTArticleAttitude of GratitudeThe practice of gratitude as a tool for happiness has been in the mainstream for years. Long-term studies support gratitude’s effectiveness, suggesting that a positive, appreciative attitude contributes to greater success in life, better health, peak performance in sports and business and a higher sense of well-being.ARTArticleAttractive Vibes - Internal HappinnessThe subject of happiness often splits the opinion of many people. Is it something we chase and obtain by achieving our goals and dreams or is it our birth right…there irrespective of what we do?
In western culture we tend to adopt a ‘build and maintain’ view of the world. That is, if we want something (like money, good career, quality of life etc…) we have to go out and build it from scratch then maintain and develop it through time. In essence it’s a fundamental driving force of the capitalist world view.ARTArticleAustralian LIfestyle, American Mind SetHaving just returned from visiting my family over the holidays in Adelaide, South Australia, I discovered how Americanized I’ve become in my thinking. Not a bad thing. Just different from how I grew up in this Down Under city of one million people.ARTArticleAvoiding Failure Does Not Lead To SuccessA common theme among my clients is the fear of failure. They are so afraid of failing that they are unwilling to press the "go" button to get their lives started. Ironically the fear of failure usually leads to more failure. The fear of failure can lead to procrastination, perfection paralysis, indecision, and even depression. One thing the fear of failure will never lead to is success.ARTArticleAwaken your Creative GenieOne of the reasons you stop creative efforts is your feel you are not getting the praise you want from others.
Why not consider the praise and growth you get from the Universe?
Another reason you stop creating is you think your creation is not as good as others; so what? It’s yours.
Stop comparing your projects with other people’s. I love to paint and sculpt horses. If I go online, open an art book or go to a gallery, I see that mine are not the same as the pros.
Should I stop doing something I enjoy? I don’t think so.ARTArticleBack to School Made SimpleAs the carefree days of summer wind down, it’s time to start thinking about sending the kids back to school (or if you’re a frazzled parent or caregiver, maybe you’ve been thinking about it for a while now!). As much as you may welcome the arrival of the school year, it can be a hectic and stressful time. Whether your kids are in preschool or headed off to college, advanced planning and preparation can reduce everyone’s anxiety level and make school days run more smoothly. This month’s newsletter offers some ideas to help with the transition.ARTArticleBe an Indispensable Linchpin to the Right PeopleIf you are reading this blog, you have probably at one point either heard of, or read the Seth Godin's book, "Linchpin". If you haven't read it yet, here's the highlight: be indispensable. I would take it another step, and say that you need to be indispensable to the right people.ARTArticleBe Prepared When Emergency StrikesThe recent series of disasters in Japan, as well as unrest in many parts of the world, should have us all thinking a little bit more about whether or not we’re prepared for an unexpected disaster. Whether caused by Mother Nature or a human being, an emergency can throw our lives into chaos – being prepared can help mitigate an emergency’s negative impact. While there’s been lots of information in the press recently about how to prepare for physical survival in a disaster, you may not have given much thought to your recordkeeping and paperwork. Here are some ideas you might want to implement:rARTArticleBe Productive Rather Than Busy or ActiveARTArticleBe Where Your Buyers AreOne of my clients, Anna, recently tried to sell her photographs at a concert that one of her friends held at a hotel. Anna's friend, Johnny has a small jazz band and was able to get his band booked for gig at the bar/lounge inside the hotel. Johnny also asked the hotel if they could have friends sell art and crafts in the lounge area. The hotel approved as long as it was kept to a small space.ARTArticleBE YOUR BEST SELF BY NOT TRYING TO BE A BETTER YOUBE YOUR BEST SELF BY NOT TRYING TO BE A BETTER YOU

“We discover who we have always been when we stop attempting to become better than who we really are” ~Stephen Levine.ARTArticleBe Your Own HeroI finally got around to seeing the movie, "Whip It" (dir. Drew Barrymore).ARTArticleBe Your Own Tipping PointWe often remember the people who symbolize a movement, but forget all the people who came beforehand to create that movement. We remember the dates, but forget all the events that lead up to that moment to make that moment possible. These historical figures weren’t just in the right place at the right time. Their internal beliefs and their outward actions were aligned in such a way that when the right time and right place came along they had the courage to step into their moment in history.ARTArticleBeating Yourself Up for Mistakes is Like Pressuring Yourself to Fail<img class="size-medium wp-image-149 " style="border: 0pt none; margin: 1px;" title="ideavist_image_20110310_BeatingYourselfUp" src="http://www.ideavist.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/ideavist_image_20110310_BeatingYourselfUp-300x225.jpg" alt="Beating Yourself Up foARTArticleBeauty Profits, Why are YOU working for FREE?If you’re in the business of helping other people look and feel beautiful there’s no reason for you to be a “starving artist”. I’m sure you give your clients/customers great value. You deserve to profit from your passion!
We’ve all heard the saying “Pay your dues” but sometimes that means working for FREE, a cycle for some that never ends.
In the beginning I think it's important to work for FREE to develop your confidence, sharpen your skills, learn your industry & network.ARTArticleBecome Who You AreOne year, I decided to try food photography. I loved food, I loved local restaurants, and I loved photography. It seemed like a perfect fit for me. One problem... two actually. The first was that I had no experience in product photography; my style was more akin to photojou
alism, which is stylistically different than product photography. The second problem was that I had absolutely no culinary background. Being who I am, I didn't let any of that hold me back.ARTArticleBeing Mindful of Money Means Having a Mind Full of PenniesI once saw my mom pick up a penny that she somehow saw in the middle of a parking lot. She waved it in the air as if it were a blessing, and placed it carefully into her purse. I asked my how she was able to see that penny? She said that pennies are everywhere, and that all you have to do is look.ARTArticleBeing Overwhelmed by Useless ThoughtsI’ve been running Personal Development Seminars now for over fifteen years and still, after all these years practicing what I preach, I wake up some mornings plagued with useless thoughts – or the little rascals come after me during the day when I least expect it. But, of course, I should expect them because, sad as it may seem, the adult human appears to be hell-bent on destroying our best efforts in the course of our everyday lives.ARTArticleBelieve in What You Sell, and Sell What You Believe InI ran into an old friend of mine, Brian, at a nearby bookstore, and we immediately went through the pleasantries of finding out what the other had been up to. Brian started telling me about how he and his wife were struggling financially, but that he was hopeful about a new business venture he was starting. Being who I am, I asked him what his new venture was. Brian said that he was going to start selling some kind of weight loss vitamin supplement that someone at his church had told him about.ARTArticleBook Marketing Tips: A Dime A DozenTom Wright/The One Penny Millionaire!®
