When it comes to online dating, you are competing against millions of other singles…all looking for love. You must find a way to keep a step ahead of the competition!

With offline dating, we can dress attractively, wear the best perfumes, make seductive eye contact and other suggestive gestures. But online, we have very little to work with. But, there is something that works each and every time!

The online seasoned pros, usually sends what I call the canned introduction. I can spot them a mile away…“Hello, I love your photo and your profile. My name is Desperate. I love to hunt, camp, and fish. I am divorced with 2 children, ages 7 and 10. I currently live in the city and I work for the county. I would love to get to know you. Please feel free to contact me at still desperate@lonely.com. And my phone number is 408-555-2468.”(Don’t you watch T.V.? All fictitious phone numbers begin with 555!)

I personally do not like canned emails. I feel I deserve more than that…so, my usual response is, “Thank you so much for the email! But, can I ask you a personal question? What are the 5 most important things about you, that I must know? Only 5…”

This totally erases the “canned email“, and the two of you are starting with a clean, personal, heartfelt slate! It also says: “I’m special, and I need more than what you’ve given to the others.” You will be amazed at the different responses you will receive!

Also, the 5 personal revelations will not only keep you 5 steps ahead of your competition, but it will also give you a foundation to build upon.

Since I am trying to lose weight I have been going to the
gym and walking the treadmill. Each day I try to increase the distance
and length of time I walk. Attempting to muster the strength to go
farther on one occasion, I started repeating to myself the words
from the Eagles song, “Take it to the limit one more time”. As I
repeated those words, I was infused with the strength to increase my
distance.

At that moment, I understood how those powerful words could be used
for motivation in the pursuit of my online business goals. When I find
myself getting discouraged, anxious about my expectations, I sing to
myself repeating the words, “Take it to limit one more time”.

Life is a gift. There are marvelous sensations to experience. The warmth of a sunset, the laughter of a newborn, the embrace of a loved one are just a few things that bring us great joy.

A large part of life is also portioned out to the mundane activities. Our jobs, paying bills, high taxes and bureaucratic red tape are just some of the daily problems that rob us of joy and make us weary. At times the mundane is so exhausting that we tend to forget that life is beautiful and bountiful. We lose sight of what is important. No longer do we smell the roses or enjoy the sunsets. Instead we pile worry on top of stress and soon we resent, instead of appreciate, our life.

Here are 5 remedies for bringing our love-of-life back into focus.

When dealing with other people, your goal should be to develop a rapport. You will improve the quality of your relationships if you learn the art of agreeableness. Develop an agreeable feeling within the minds of others towards you. What does it mean to be agreeable? In the simplest terms, being agreeable means being in harmony.

Being agreeable doesn’t mean you will always agree with another’s opinions. It does mean you will not show indifference to others. Be willing to listen even if they have opposing views. Being agreeable means you employ tact to disagree in an agreeable manner.

In today’s world of technology we do not have ample opportunity to get personal. Life is fast-paced and everyone seems to be in a rush. We dial the phone and we talk to machines. We spend long hours on the computer playing games, emailing one another or working with our web pages. Even in the office environment, we email the person in the cubicle 3 feet away instead of walking over to hand them a task list.
