Your PC running slow? Speed it UP!

Revolutionary product speeds up your computer



There are many reasons why your computer could be running slow...

I'm myself pretty much a hard core computer user, couple of friends have mentioned that if a new computer needs to be tested in just a couple of hours, it should be given to me.



Simply because my normal computer workload is pretty much at maximum at all times. I have Mozilla FireFox open with 20-50 different tabs, couple of Adobe Acrobat windows, couple of word files, Editplus (text editor) with 30 tabs, plus of course Adobe Photoshop, mail programs, MSN and these are just the main things.



So if a PC has a reason to strike for some reason, it should definitely be my computer. However, luckily I haven't really had any big problems except for speed issues due to my hardcore memory and CPU consumption. Most of the 'computer speed up' software out there focuses only on ONE problem area, but with a user like me, its far from enough. Products like "PC Doctor" and "Registry Fixer" are decent products but they leave a lot of your computer's speed potential unused (I know that after I have tested the product PC Secret Formula).


PC Secret Formula system covers all important areas so your computer is literally forced to perform at maximum speed and that's why I would definitely recommend the PC Secret Formula to everyone who feels their computer is running slower than it could be should be.


While I use my laptop around 16 hours a day, I haven't really done much to keep it running fast and safe. I run a firewall and anti-virus software. In the past I have tried some spyware software pieces,
registry cleaners and so on, but overall they haven't done much good, some of them have actually screwed up my computer.

And this makes me happy to see a tested product, which teaches me how to do it all safely. At least for me it worked like a treat, really made my PC faster again and at the same time didn't cause
it to blow up or anything like that.


Did you know that some anti-virus software might make your computer virus-free but at the same time take up so much of your PC resources that it makes your computer reaaaly slow?



Using PC Secret Formula


PC Secret Formula has been designed so that you run through the entire program step by step. First you get your machine cleaned up and to get familiar with software (btw, all the software names there are freeware, so no extra costs). It takes some time the first go around but it's very clearly explained.


You'll learn exactly what to do and most importantly, what NOT to do. How to use the software and a number of built-in Windows utilities to fix your slow computer. After that there's a regular maintenance plan outlined that will take much less time but will keep
your machine in great shape.


Usually people charge a lot for just a registry cleaner, but in this package, its included! With this program you really get your money's worth plus more..


What I didn't like about PC Secret Formula? After going through the system I'd say there are one thing that I don't like about it. Firstly, being a hardcore computer user I know enough about computers as well as different tasks. What I don't know much about is how to speed up my computer.


I know a few things but I haven't really had any time to work on obtaining knowledge in that area. And here I'd like to see special chapters that would be combined of the section of the book. There could be like 3 different combinations, one for hardcore users like me, another for intermediate PC user and finally one for hardcore amateur. Right now the sections of PC Secret Formula all together last just a bit less than an hour's read, but for me it
would be enough to have a 10-15 to get straight to the point.


Overall impression

PC Secret Formula has easy-to-follow, professionally produced and well put together ebook, but in addition to that, every single chapter also has notes attached which provide additional notes that will further enhance your PC's performance. So if your computer is running slow and you want to speed it up today, PC Secret Formula is the system you should use.

Start a savings plan.

Start saving today. Many people will say "my income is not enough for my family, its not even enough for myself". These are the usual outcries, and yes it's true, with the current financial crisis and the high cost of fuel and food items, we can say that we can't save.

But as the saying goes, "If there's a will, there's a way". And there is a way, if we put our mind into it.

Here are some steps:
  • Set a goal for yourself. This will motivate you to save. For example: A long needed vacation in five years or a new car, or a down payment for a new home. Whatever will motivate you to save. If you are not motivated, your goal is just wishful thinking and your life will just drift or coast along into nothingness.
  • Create a budget. I know this is mentioned in every article you read about money but believe me without a budget, it will be very hard to save. The nitty gritty of budgeting can be discussed in another article. Below are simple ways of creating a budget plan. Keep in mind though that your budget should be in line with the times, as you know the prices of goods and services have gone up. So make a budget that's not too stringent and must be realistic.
    • Plan how much money you expect to come in this month. This will be your Income column.
    • Pay yourself first, allot ten (10) percent for your savings. You can increase this as your income increases. I know you can do it.
    • Write down the expenses you anticipate every month. Put the necessary things first like recurring bills (e.g. rent, electricity, water, phone, transportation or fuel, etc.). For annual expenses like insurances, get the monthly expense by dividing it by 12 and put it in your monthly expense column.
    • Put an amount beside each expense item.
    • If money still is not enough, adjust the amount of items that are variable like food. Minimized eating out, choose less costly dishes and eat more home cooked meals. If you have your own vehicle, read on how to save on fuel and apply it, and if you are commuting, ride more on buses, and less on taxis. I know you can do it.
    • If there is still money left, congratulate and reward yourself by spending it anyway you want, but if you want to go to the extreme add it onto your savings
  • With this plan you assure yourself of a savings and still meet necessary expenses.
  • What if you found out that your income is not enough to meet your needs. Then, find ways to increase your income (More of this in future articles). You can start by selling assets you don't use by having a garage sale in your own or another's yard, posting it on e-bay or approaching friends and forcing them to buy it from you. You can also have a part-time job or start a sideline business you can do after office, on weekends or online (just beware of scams). The extra income will greatly help you.
  • If your budget still is too much, examine each expense item closely to find out where you can save. Check on suspicious little expenses that you spend on every day or week.
The bottom line is not to bring misery to our lives by being frugal, spendthrift or miser but in taking charge of your own money. By doing this, you'll make money your slave and not the other way around.

Have fun!

How to Think Like a Millionaire

2nd of 2 parts

By T. Harv Eker
Author of Secrets of the Millionaire Mind


4. Rich People Think Big

Poor people think small.

We once had a trainer teaching at one of our seminars who went from a net worth of $250 thousand to over $600 million in only 3 years. When asked his secret he said, "Everything changed the day I began to think big." In my book, SpeedWealth, I discuss the "Law of Income" which states that "you will be paid in direct proportion to the value you deliver according to the market place."
Another way of understanding this is to answer the following question: How many people do you actually serve or affect?

For instance in my business, some trainers enjoy speaking to groups of 20, others are comfortable with 100, others like an audience of 500, still others want 5000 people or more in attendance. Is there is a difference in income between these trainers? You bet there is.

Who are you? How do you want to live your life? How do you want to play the game?

Do you want to play in the big leagues or in little league, in the majors or the minors?

Will you play big or play small? It's your choice.

But hear this. It's not about you. It's about living your mission. It's about living true to your purpose. It's about adding your piece of the puzzle to the world. It's about serving others.

Most of us are so stuck in our egos that everything revolves around "me, me and more me." But again, it's not about you, it's about adding value to other people's lives. It's your choice. One road leads to being broke and miserable, the other leads to money, meaning, and fulfillment.

It's time to stop hiding out and start stepping out. It's time to stop needing and start leading. It's time to start being the star that you are. It's time to share your gifts and value in a BIG way. There could be thousands or even millions of people counting on you. Are you up to the challenge for our society and our children's sake? Let's hope so.

5. Rich People Are Bigger Than Their Problems

Poor people are smaller than their problems.

Getting rich is not a stroll in the park. It's a journey that is full of obstacles, twists, and detours. The simple fact is, success is messy. The road is fraught with pitfalls and that's why most people don't take it. They don't want the hassles, the headaches and the responsibilities. In short, they don't want the problems.

Therein lies one of the biggest differences between rich people and poor people. Rich and successful people are bigger than their problems while poor and unsuccessful people are smaller than their problems.

Poor people will do almost anything to avoid anything that looks like it could be a problem. They back away from challenges. The irony is that in their quest to make sure they don't have problems, they have the biggest problem of all... they're broke and miserable.
The secret to success is not to try to avoid or shrink your problems; it's to grow yourself so you're bigger than any problem.

Imagine a "level 2" character person looking at a "level 5" problem. Would this problem appear to be big or small? The answer is that from a "level 2" perspective, a "level 5" problem would seem BIG.

Now imagine a "level 8" person looking at the same "level 5" problem. From this person's perspective, is this problem big or small? Magically the identical problem is now a SMALL problem.

And for a "level 10" person, it's NO problem at all. It's just an everyday occurrence, like getting dressed or brushing your teeth. Whether you are rich or poor, playing big or playing small, problems do not go away. If you're breathing, you will always have so-called "problems."

What's important to realize is that the size of the problem is never the real issue. What matters is the size of you!
Remember, your wealth can only grow to the extent that you do! The idea is to grow yourself to a place where you can overcome any problems that get in your way of creating wealth and keeping it once you have it.

Rich people do not back away from problems, do not avoid problems and do not complain about problems. Rich people are financial warriors and when a warrior is confronted with a challenge they shout: BRING IT ON!

6. Rich People Focus on Opportunities

Poor people focus on problems.

Rich people see potential growth. Poor people see potential loss.

Rich people focus on the rewards. Poor people focus on the risks.

It's the age-old question, is the glass half empty or half full? We're not merely talking about "positive thinking" here, we're talking about a habitual way of seeing the world. Poor people come from fear. Their minds are constantly scanning for what's wrong or what could go wrong in any situation. Their primary mindset is "What if it doesn't work?" or, more bluntly, "It won't work." Rich people, as we discussed earlier, take responsibility for creating their life and come from the mindset, "It will work because I'll make it work."

In the financial world, as in most other arenas, risk is directly proportionate to reward; generally, the higher the reward, the higher the risk. People with rich mentalities are willing to take that risk.

Rich people expect to succeed. They have confidence in their abilities, they have confidence in their creativity and they believe that should the "doo-doo hit the fan", they can always make their money back or succeed in another way.

On the other hand, poor people expect to fail. They lack confidence in themselves and in their abilities, and should things not work out, they believe it would be catastrophic.
You have to do something, buy something, or start something in order to succeed financially. You have to see opportunities for profit all around you instead of focusing on ways of losing money.
