Been working hard on the new site at https://www.taichitraining.pro where I invite people to join my Tai Chi membership site so you can learn Tai Chi and Qigong

Been working hard - another new style for www.ex-l-ence.com my Publishing website - new eBooks galore... Also changed the look of my martial arts academy's website at www.ahmaa.co.uk

My new martial arts website is up and running (albeit a version 'one') at http://www.ahmaa.co.uk - The new 'brand' Agar-Hutton Martial Arts Academy was chosen so that I can expand and teach in places other than Gloucester...

New Tai Chi club and new website

I am opening a new Tai Chi club in Minsterworth in Gloucestershire (Just a few minutes drive from Gloucester) and the new website is at http://www.gloucestertaichi.co.uk

Doomsayers beware :)

Interesting how I seem to be attracting 'doomsayers' at the moment - I keep meeting people who tell me how bad things are - I hope it's because my mission is to help them to see that the world is as great a place as each of us cares to make it. I hope I am the 'doomsayers' invigorator :)

Quick Blog

I now have a way to post Quick Blogs – Yippee…

Radio Derby and Anger Management

I have been on BBC Radio Derby this morning talking about Anger Management http://bit.ly/aT9WE (My interview is at about 1 hour 13 minutes into the recording). I talked about anger management in general and my involvement with the Sky One TV program 'Football Behind Bars' which is hosted by Ian Wright.

Passed grading for 5th dan

Felix Yu Restaurant - Northampton

My wife and I ate at the Felix Yu Restaurant in Northampton last night...

My starter was:
"Seared carpaccio of beef with chilli, lime and olive oil, served with caviar"
- marks 5 out of 5 (5/5) - I liked it though it can't really be called a Chinese' dish.

My wife had "Wonton soup (Hong Kong style)" the Wonton meat was not very good so 2/5

Then the main courses
Stir-fried Singapore-style vermicelli - 4/5
Stir-fried mixed vegetables with cashew nuts in spicy cumin sauce - the cashew nuts were nice - 2/5
Monkfish (fillet) wok-grilled with porcini mushroom, garlic and parma ham - The fish wasn't off but it definately wasn't fresh and at £14.80 it should be - 1/5

Overall, a little overpriced and rather poor quality - not so bad that we sent any dishes back but we did mention the quality of the fish when they asked at the end of the meal if we had enjoyed it ...

The bill included a 10% service charge - they were quite lucky that we paid it!!! We would not go back.

Sadly it seems to be another restaurant where the reputation and press coverage is much better than what is on the plate...

All day but worth it

Well, the last 'ten minutes' worth of work on my new FREE STUFF website took nearly eleven hours but at teh end I am almost ready to let the site go live. Tomorrow will see the last phase of pre-launch testing and then the launch of a website that tells people about free offers and offers people the chance to earn some money from Amazon and Google affiliate programs by having (for free) their own copy of the website that I will host (also for free) - So all the affiliate (or owner of the site, if you prefer) has to do is to let people know about 'their' website.

I'm hoping this will be a very popular site and the technology that I've developed in order to allow different 'owners' is something that I'm going to extend to several other websites in the next few weeks...

New website

Moved http://www.milliondollarsummer2009.com to a new server and installed the brand new website that we have had designed. It's cool and is based on Wordpress so I am having to get used to a new way of updating things.

Buxton Tai Chi Club - New web page for books

I've just added a new page with details of a few relevant books on Tai Chi to the Buxton Tai Chi Club website.

http://www.qtvh.com is the website which lets people join my Internet Marketing Mailing List it has had some updates this week with more on the way. I will be ading more free downloads and resources shortly.

http://www.milliondollarsummer2009.com will be up and running soon I hope (as long as it's ready for June all will be fine) it's the website that I will be using to manage the three month long summer project where I and hopefully lots of other people will be earning a little or a lot of extra money...

The FREE 'entry' into the second site is strictly by joining (again for FREE) my mailing list at the first site...

New Blog Look and Feel

Hi

Playing with the look of my blog - better than it was but still a LONG WAY TO GO to get the look that I have in mind...

NEW LIST & SITE & FREEBIES

I've just launched my new Internet Marketing Mailing List (along with a mention of the 'Million Dollar Summer') at http://www.link-clicks.com/go.php?250

Joining the list is a way for people to learn more about 'Health, Wealth and Happiness' and also to be informed of the 'Million Dollar Summer' opportunity that I will be running from June to August this year.

Also members of the list get access to a page full of goodies and resources (Some FREE some not) that are helpful, useful or downright essential to people that want to make money via the Internet.

Twitter Twitter Tweet Tweet

I find myself getting more and more drawn towards Twitter - the ability to have 'mini-thoughts' or 'mini-facts' instantly conveyed to anyone who follows me (either on Twitter or Facebook) is really clever. Add to that the fact that I can update it by sending a text message from my phone and you have a system that is addictive and VERY useful.

Choosing a Tai Chi Class

I suggested the following to someone today and then realised that they were good tips for choosing a Tai Chi (Taiji) class

1) Find a class near enough to where you are so that you will train each week.

2) Find a class where, at the end of the class you leave with a smile - it should be fun physically and mentally - it may well also be hard work but should still be fun. A lot of Tai Chi teachers take themselves and the art WAY too seriously

3) Your instructor should understand that Tai Chi is a martial art that was originally designed for combat and they should have some appreciation of how to apply the moves in the art to maim and kill - that's NOT because you want to learn those things, but an instructor who understands the HOW of combat will generally be much better at teaching the HOW of health and vitality - it's to do with understanding the correct body mechanics and efficient use of energy.

My own club in Buxton http://www.buxtontaichi.co.uk is always happy to see new peopel with or without prior martial or health arts experience.

Hello,

The next year (or two or three) may be a bit bleak for many people - but look on the bright side - it's a time filled with opportunity.

Perhaps people will come to be both more self reliant and more caring of others (those things are not mutually exclusive) - Perhaps more people will leave the idea of 'a job' behind and figure out how to live the life they want (whilst paying the bills).

OK, I AM biased, I have been living the life I want to, for nearly thirty years and so I am a believer - most people believe that they have to do a 9 to 5 job they hate... and don't know what they really want and they don't know how to go about getting it.

NOW is the time to do some serious goal setting and planning as you and ONLY you can be trusted... Job security just does not exist for most people any more. Running your own business you do rely on others but you have SO much more power over what may happen. Government help - well maybe but maybe not...

What you need at a very minimum is your own home (all paid for) money on deposit (even at these terrible interest rates) and multiple independent streams of income some from 'real world' and some from Internet activities - oh it's also a great idea to offshore anything that you legally can.

If you are a Facebook user join my group Web Prosperity 101 at http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=41423854406

To OUR success in 2009.

Robert.
