How to Start Your Google + account

After 4 years of being active in social media, mostly in English speaking areas, I can say that Google has choosen a great strategy by not allowing anyone to register for an account to its latest masterpiece Google +.

Social media means virtual real estate assets so I am as passionate about it as I am with the regular down to earth real estate.

Google has the right mindset, people, investment, knowledge, logistic and the overall resources to make this big. Only few people if we take as a measurement the total amount of social media activists were invited so they created a huge buzz around their project. Great strategy, btw.

Here is a video published by Google explaining more about their project:

What we think actually shapes the world around us

As I am in the middle of the journey to discover myself and improve all areas of my life using training, coaching, and an improved structured way to do things, by far the most important thing to focus on is the mindset. Looking back, I’ve attracted in my life positive and negative facts, various happenings and people and the conclusion is that all these were dragged as a reflection of my thoughts and feelings. Below is a quote from The Secret and is one of the many you will find in the next period among the articles published here. Your … Continue reading What we think actually shapes the world around us

How we manage the gifts we have – my Bday present to you!

Usually at the beginning of each year and at every birthday I make a review of what I already achieved, what I have to improve, where I am in the journey towards my goals and which are the things standing between me and what I really want to achieve in life. I strongly believe that there isn’t a copy + paste solution to work for everybody but with the huge growth of Internet we all have access to the knowledge to transform the life in one full of possibilities where everything you desire to happen how you want and when you want.

Most of the times there isn’t an easy solution like to find everything in one place but the beauty of the game is to research various sources of information and find what works for you and apply what seems to be the most appropriate.

We all have one of several gifts which are inside of us from birth and due to our ignorance and the comfort of living small and comfortable they are not discovered, are not used, don’t bring value to the humanity and we arrive at a life full of compromises instead of the life of our dreams.

Kaleidoscop The Unboring Home de la Greenfield

De fiecare data cand ajung in Cartierul Greenfield din Baneasa si merg des in ultima vreme am un deja-vu cu minunata perioada din copilarie cand imi vizitam bunicii la Predeal si savuram aerul de munte. Aerul este diferit de restul Bucurestiului – pot confirma. Am zis initial ca ma sugestionez sa il simt altfel dar dupa incercari repetate m-am convins ca e “for real”.

Sa mergi la SPA este un must have pentru oricine doreste sa investeasca in propria sanatate

Unul dintre preturile pe care oricine doreste sa exceleze in business trebuie sa le plateasca inseamna sa petreaca foarte multe ore la birou, evntual in fata calculatorului, sa faca fata multor situatii stresante si unor presiuni de multe ori foarte greu de suportat. Sedentarismul este periculos pentru ca odata instalat ca obicei este foarte greu de inlaturat iar efectele pe termen lung asupra organismului uman pot fi devastatoare.


Echilibrul dintre mental si corp nu este nici usor dar nici greu de stabilit insa de cele mai multe ori necesita ajutor specializat. Noi romanii zicem ca ne pricepem la toate si de fapt aceasta este o cursa foarte periculoasa. Cei mai de succes oameni pe care ii cunosc au de exemplu un mentor pentru business, un consilier pentru relatii (chiar de cuplu), unul pentru modul in care se imbraca, un coach pentru fitness s.a. Aceasta delegare daca poate fi numita asa le asigura acel succes pe multiple planuri care pentru multi dintre noi pare de domeniul SF. Din pacate, traim intr-o societate in care suntem inoculati cu ideea ca trebuie sa muncim pentru o pensie de la stat si ca e gresit sa traim in bunastare si plinatate pana la 100 de ani. De asemenea, suntem tinuti ocupati de dimineata pana seara intre 25 si 50 de ani astfel incat sa nu avem grija de noi si sa ne cheltuim la varsta a III-a toti banii pe medicamente.

Getting Word of Mouth Started: New Book PR Method

We wanted feedback and a greater audience before publishing the print version of our new book. We gambled on a ‘public and peer review’ to help improve the quality of our book, and at the same time get out word of mouth. Did it work?

Authors and business people often go to extremes to publicize their book or product launch. Sometimes, the most successful method can appear in front of them. Take for example, book publicity. It is the one of the toughest cases to crack. Each year, at least 50,000 authors are published in the United States. Tens of thousands of authors publish electronic books. Most fail to get noticed. Very few achieve any of their goals as authors – to build up readership.

Here’s a way to get the word out and polish off your book before it hits the stores: sampling. Major corporations utilize focus groups, pollsters and other marketing experts to build up their brand name. This is similar to planting seeds to get a garden or orchard to grow. The more seeds you plant, the better your chances to grow vegetables or apple trees. As an author, you can use sampling or “seeding,” to build up awareness of your book. During the publishing process, we discovered a clever way to attract readers, and at the same time, we can upgrade our book.

Why do people like to use Facebook?

Facebook became part of our everyday life. Sometimes when we get up in the morning we check what our friends are up to even before going to the bathroom.

De cine asculta companiile de la noi in social media? (pamflet)

Ma distreaza foarte tare cum multe companii din Romania sunt invatate cum sa se descurce in social media de “gurus”, “specialisti in social media” si “blogg(e)ri”. In general imi place sa stau deoparte si sa nu ma angajez in polemici ieftine fiindca prefer sa imi investesc timpul in directii mai interesante insa nu pot sa nu observ cum de exemplu gigantii telefoniei mobile de la noi se plang ca au pierdut cu sutele de mii de clienti uitand parca de nesatul cu care si-au plasat brandurile langa cuvinte si expresii demne de site-urile cu multe x-uri. Da, au cautat trafic … Continue reading De cine asculta companiile de la noi in social media? (pamflet)
