How To Divorce Proof Your Marriage (from a divorce attorney)

Let's start with an underlying assumption, good relationships are not easy. When NBC did a story called Project Everlasting, they interviewed 200 couples who had been married at least 40 years and every single one of them said they had been through some rough times. So the road to love is not charger plates smooth. When these couples were interviewed every single one said that respecting each other was important and I agree. You can respect someone without loving them but you can't love someone without respecting them. When you respect someone you treat them in a different way then when you don't respect them. Respect means not belittling their ideas. It means listening to them and not cutting them off. Respect can be looking up to them or defending them because you think they are right. It can be a lot of different things to different people but the bottom line is you treat them like they matter. When you treat a spouse with respect you build them up. When you don't, you tear them down. Which manner will result in having a powerful union?


The 2nd thing that is needed to create a strong relationship is the ability for each side to compromise. You can't always have everything you want all the time. Resentments will build up if one person takes more than they replica watches give. But at the same time you shouldn't be playing goal keeper by making sure everything is exactly 50/50. When both of you have an intention to be respectful of each other and to allow the other person to have their way half the time, the place you are coming from should just naturally create many satisfying results for each of you. This was another element our 200 couples mentioned and as a divorce lawyer I KNOW compromise is the life blood of creating win/win deals with people.


The 3rd thing you must have is open and honest communication. Most people wood door are not mind readers and shouldn't be made to feel like they don't really know or love you unless they automatically understand what is going on with you. Give an emotional weather report. Directly say what you need and want. Don't wait for that one last straw that breaks the camel's back to blow up. Things don't need to get to that point if you are regularly communicating what is going on with you. When you are talking don't blame the other person for making you feel a certain way. No one makes you feel anything. That is YOUR choice. There are no victims when people take responsibility for their choices. It is perfectly valid to say, "when you do that I feel this." You are not blaming them for anything. You are just letting them know how you feel. Take responsibility for making sure the other person hears what you are saying. There are 2 parts of a conversation. You are responsible for making sure the message you are saying is getting through and you are responsible for hearing what they are saying too.


Peter Drucker, renowned management specialist, says that 60 percent of promotional inflatables management problems result from faulty communication. According to criminologists, up to 90 percent of all criminals have problems with interpersonal communication. And according to a leading marriage counselor, at least half of all marriage breakdowns are caused by faulty communication.


Effective communication is based on knowing our thoughts, desires, motives and feelings - being honest with them and expressing them creatively. People who deny or suppress their inner feelings and true desires fail to communicate effectively and can never discover true intimacy.


The 4th thing to keep in mind is to pick your battles. I have seen this over and over again in court as people dig in their heals on issues that are meaningless. Never fight and bicker over meaningless things like the best way to clean the sink or if the toilet paper rolls over or under. You better save your energy for things that really matter. When you don't sweat the small stuff life is a lot easier and you are a more pleasant person to be around. I am NOT saying to stuff what really bothers you but if leaving the toothpaste cap off bothers you that much, you need to toughen up. An easy going person is a lot easier to live with forever than someone who has a chip on their shoulder.


The 5th thing to remember is you have needs too. It is natural to want to make your mate happy and support them in any way you can but when you give up your own life to accommodate their needs without a reciprocal concession on the other person's part, you cease to exist. It is very rare that a couple has the same needs at the same time. Expect to be traveling different paths at certain points. This is when compromise is really important. If you end up moving to support their career on the promise that after a certain period of time they will do the same for you (or whatever your deal is going to be), get it in writing and have a penalty if they don't follow through. Throughout history martyrs are often killed. Why should you be any different?


The last thing you need to maintain a long term relationship is honesty and trust. These really are the back bones that everything else is built on. If you don't have an underlying sense that your mate has your back and can be counted on to tell you the truth, you are just fooling around. I have seen all trust crumble away as a spouse gets caught in little lies over and over again. Not knowing when your spouse is being 100% truthful really erodes the respect and remember you can respect someone without loving them but you can't love someone without respecting them. Don't make excuses for telling white lies. OK, if she says, "Does this make me look fat?" and you feel like she won't change her clothes if you say yes, then you can lie but if you continually underestimate what you are spending on purchases or overestimate how much time you actually need to travel from work to home, after a while your spouse just isn't going to trust you.


Think of the two of you as Bonnie and Clyde. You want a stand up cohort who has your back no matter what. You have to KNOW they are going to split the loot with you even steven and that you don't have to keep that gun under your pillow just in case they sneak up on you. You want a partner you can count on. Some one who will fight against the world with you not against you. You want someone you can trust to drive the getaway car and not rat you out to the cops if they are caught. If honesty is important between thieves, it should be to you too. Or maybe this is just my vision. See, everyone needs to have a vision of the kind of life and relationship they want. They need to enroll the other person into their vision or create a joint vision and then keep creating that vision together. When you aim for a target there is a LOT more chance of hitting it then just randomly shooting at nothing in particular. You create your life through intention and action. So given all I have just said, do you see areas of your relationship that you can shift or expand in such a way to create the marriage you now envision? What can you do today to take a step in that direction? I wish you good speed on your journey and know that you can create the relationship you intend.

Paint Finishes Made All the More Spectacular by Dragging


An ordinary-looking wall can be easily transformed into something more chic and up-market with just the stroke of a brush ... and you wouldn't believe it, a comb. Commonly known as dragging, this technique can make a room seem immediately larger and less boxy. And it is one of the rare painting techniques that can in fact work extremely well when you get just the right color combinations in, to either contrast or blend in with the shades. This article will offer tips on how to use a comb and a brush to create utterly charger plates  spectacular paint finishes that only dragging can effect.


If you want a tougher and finer finish, a base paint that is primarily a flat mid-sheen oil-based paint would help you achieve that remarkably well as it is non-absorbent, therefore the colored glaze would slide on easily, and won't sink in. Apply the glaze using a white brush 100 or 125mm [4 or 5inch] in width and generously bristled. Dragging on the other hand only needs a cheap standard brush 100mm [4inches] in width. However, use white spirit [mineral spirits] for thinning the glaze. Glycerin, from a chemist or druggist, may help to keep an replica watches  emulsion wash malleable for a longer period.


Dragging works best with two people, one applying the glaze or wash, and the other one dragging it off; and while doing this the state of mind you should aim for is attentive but relaxed. Bristles should touch the wall firmly but lightly. Use rags to wipe dragging brush every couple of strokes or so to prevent it from becoming loaded with glaze ... you don't want to put color on instead of dragging it off! Allow transparent oil glaze a day or two to dry. Thinned paint dries faster although it doesn't produce quite the same crisp finish as transparent oil glaze. But it's easier to handle. Complete dragged wall with coat of clear matt or wood door colorless acrylic varnish as a protection against wear and tear or washing down.


A comb is another tool that can create a magnificent dragging effect on a wall with relative ease. You can actually make your own comb by simply cutting a plastic lid in half, and then cutting V-shaped notches about ¼-inch long into the straight edge of a cut lid. Depending on the look you want to create, spacing between notches can be even or uneven, but to avoid excess paint buildup between notches, make teeth fairly narrow.


In both techniques, you work your way down the wall with brush (or the comb) from top to bottom... and some professionals even add side to side, then top to bottom again over the same strip. I'd say experiment with different ideas when applying these two techniques -- you never know what you will discover. Have fun with it!


Dragging is a faux-painting technique that produces thin, vertical stripes promotional inflatables on the wall. It works best on wood paneling or a smooth wall surface. A dry brush or a comb can be used to create this look of luxury, but it does work best with two people, one applying the glaze or wash, and the other one dragging it off. So the next time you want to spruce up your walls with special paint finishes, consider dragging.

Online Profits with Google AdSense


Google as a way to profit online? Absolutely true! I'm sure by now the majority of those on the internet have at least heard of Google AdSense, almost as sure as I am that anyone with a website has tried using AdSense at one point or another to earn revenue. AdSense is a very easy to use tool provided by Google that works in conjunction with Google AdWords to provide relevant ads on your website.


The way this works is pretty simple. A business pays for advertising on Google, then places ads to be shown in Google's search results and on other websites. In turn, Google then places these ads according to their relevancy, into their search results and on websites that have partnered with Google through AdSense. Since most of Google advertising is done on a Pay-Per-Click(PPC) basis, Google gets paid each time someone clicks on an add. Websites owners that have partnered with Google through AdSense also receive a portion of Google's profit each time someone clicks an ad displayed on their website. These transactions can range anywhere from a few cents to a few dollars depending upon how much a company is paying for advertising.


There are several "packages" or "systems" out there that promise to show you how to make thousands of dollars a month or per week even, just by using Google AdSense. I'm going to go ahead and break this down for you...even if you did make thousands of dollars a week (highly unlikely) using only Google AdSense, Google only sends out checks or direct deposits once per month. Thousands per month? This is actually a possibility if you have an extremely popular website. To give a reality check to these "packages" and "systems," seriously take a moment and do the math. Just say that you have a blog that attracts 100 visitors per day, and your average profit per click is $0.20. If 100 percent of those 100 visitors each click an ad, your profits would average around $20 per day. This averages out to be around $600 per month. Still not too bad, but a far cry from thousands per week.


You don't need some 20 to 50 dollar package to tell you how to do this...its really simple, and you wont get much more than this out of any of the packages for sale out there. Go to https://www.google.com/adsense/login/en_US/ and click on "Sign Up Now." Follow the instructions, sign up for the account, wait for approval from Google. Once your AdSense account is approved, follow the instructions after logging in to get started. Answer a few questions from Google, tell them how you want ads to be displayed on your page, submit, and copy your HTML code provided by Google AdSense. Paste the code into your website. Ads will appear on your site, people click on the ads, you get paid. Its as simple as that.


Keep in mind that this is just a very brief overview of the "how-to," but if you have questions or need to find information about performance and optimization of the ads, refer to Google's AdSense help forums and the training material provided by Google. DO NOT waste your time and hard-earned money with any of the so-called proven "systems" as you will find that all the information, training, and advice is free and available to the public.












If you have any questions on this topic or any other topic that I have discussed, please don't hesitate to ask!

Developing a New Project Scorecard

Managers and project managers gauge the success of any project undertaken through a new project scorecard. In the development of this scorecard, relevant metrics would have to be pre-determined. Most companies see the need to use scorecards in order to assess and measure how corporate efforts contribute to overall organization objectives. These tools of measuring performance are deemed to be mandatory, especially with the implementation of new projects or tasks. Focus of corporate executives should not only be limited in scorecard development but also in strategy implementation. Nevertheless, designing a scorecard that is most appropriate to an organization is not an easy feat. In designing a project scorecard, corporate executives should first ensure that operational plans implemented are consistent with the preferences and needs of the end clients. These plans as well as metrics identified should not contradict with each other. While in the process of project scoreboard development, corporate executives and managers are urged to follow the Balanced Scorecard management approach. This concept was introduced by David P. Norton and Robert S. Kaplan back in 1992. This aimed at the assessment and evaluation of corporate activities in terms of overall strategy and vision. The use of the Balanced Scorecard approach involves focus on four sections, or perspectives as they are also called. These perspectives include the customer perspective, learning & growth perspective, internal business processes perspective and financial perspective. In the process of scoreboard design, five to six metrics are identified for each of the perspectives. There should be justification as to the choice of these selected metrics. The data derived from these metrics should be able to help managers understand how a new project is performing. Moreover, these will also help them translate strategies into appropriate actions. For these metrics to achieve their purpose, they should be simple, measurable, and very straightforward. They should become a common language by which all members of the organization should base their actions. Before deciding what metrics to use for performance assessment, managers and corporate executives should be able to identify the problem and company objectives. Prospective metrics to be used should be brainstormed and individually appraised. Often times, managers have problems determining whether a new project that recently ended can be considered a success or a failure. With a project scorecard, managers should be able to do this with ease through the metrics identified which would then function as a criteria or indicator for success. So, if the metrics show poor numbers then, the project is considered a failure. Aside from using a new project scorecard, project assessment could also be done by asking for the opinion of the project or client sponsor. His reply should be based on whether or not initial objectives are achieved. The drawback of this approach is the fact that response could only be one of two, "no" or "yes." There is no middle ground for this approach resulting to less reliability. By using multiple success criteria through a project scorecard approach, project managers would be able to effectively define and determine project success or failure.
