Posted by Mark Ayers on Dec 30, 2008 in Blog, Blog marketing, Blogging, Optimist International, The Optimist Creed

Promise Yourself —

  • To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.
  • To talk health, happiness and prosperity to every person you meet.
  • To make all your friends feel that there is something in them.
  • To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true.
  • To think only of the best, to work only for the best and to expect only the best.
  • To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own.
  • To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future.
  • To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living creature you meet a smile.
  • To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to criticize others.
  • To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble

The Optimist Creed from Optimist International. Who adapted these words from the late Christian D. Larson

Google alerts can keep you in a constant and up to date stream of content ideas and it is so simple to set up.

Google Alerts are email updates of the most current relevant Google search results (web, news, blog, video, etc.) and these are based on your choice of keywords or search terms. Take a quick 20 seconds or less to do this and you will then be sent a confirmation email to your own email account, no need for a Gmail account. If you already have a gmail account it is an easy access when you are logged in to Gmail.

Go to:  Google Alert Home

Once there you will see a welcome screen with some information explaining what Google Alerts are about then a form to fill in.

To create a Google Alert fill in the form

  • Add search terms: the desired keywords or term
  • Type: News, Web, Comprehensive, Blog and Video
  • How often: Daily, hourly, as it happens
  • Your email addy:

You will be sent a confirmation email and you are set. You can then add or remove alerts as you want from your dashboard after logging in.

Here are some of the FAQ”s for your review

1. What are Google Alerts : Quick and easy emails that have the content you are looking for from Google search
