How To Make Money From Home As A Writer

Image
  I decided to start my own freelance writing business when I became fed up with the slow commute back and forth to work, meaning that I often missed out feeding my children their dinner, reading them a story or putting them to bed. So on deciding to leave work, finding out how to make money from home became extremely important for me. I have always loved to write and so when I started researching and saw that I could work at home and still earn good money, I decided to go for it. As a freelance writer, you can work on a huge variety of different assignments and get paid really well; such as copy writing, which is my preference, as well as writing product reviews, marketing presentations, general data entry, coursework materials and the more exciting projects such as ghost writing, biographies and much more. So if you really love writing, you should be able to turn that love into a talent where you can actually write about anything. Having the determination to succeed will also hel...

You, Me and Technology: The Truth

Image
  Can you figure out what you and I have in common with Technology? If you think a little you will find out. Read on for insights. You and I both love to take advantage of technology. Yet when we do that, we overdo it sometimes costing our health and most of all, our eyes and back. Eyesight will start to deteriorate and our back pain will develop. We need to move our hands and legs while taking breaks and walk around a bit. Otherwise our body will start to malfunction and start to give symptoms. Other than that, loving technology with limits is great. You get to learn a lot about tools and software over the mighty reign of internet. They come to your aid when you carry out computer tasks and make life easier for you. So you and I have nothing to lose. On the other hand, we must set aside technology for a while and enjoy the beauty of life, recreate and recharge our batteries. In other words, we need to have fun with friends and family. Then we can go back to work with refreshed ene...

How Technology Lies to You Everyday

Image
  Ever notice the media via TV, laptop, TABs and other digital gadgets is full of negative content? How is the media feeding this negativity to us and how is it lying on a daily basis? Read on to find out. Consider the following options and justify: 1)  Murder/Crime Murder, kidnapping and ransoming are bold news in the media which scares the death out of us and make us want to think negative about our environment and the world. 2)  Theft/Robbery Theft - trivial or big - does happen. More of it happens in underdeveloped countries.

  Technology Importance: Technology has made immense advancements over the years. It has helped us in many ways. In our daily lives there is not a single thing that does not involve the use of technology. It is just impossible to avoid the impact of technology, whether it is positive or negative. Technology has proven that we cannot ignore the ease it brings to our lives. Without technology our lives would be really difficult.

Why We Love Technology and You Should, Too

Image
  There are so many upsides of technology and we enjoy their benefits every single moment of the day. That is why we love technology, don't you? This article emphasizes on the fact. Read on to find out. There are many technologies around us such as cell phones, TABs, iPads and other digital gadgets together with the existence of the web and Wi-Fi signal. All these toys have made our life so much easier to access and/or get in touch. What would have occurred without their presence? We would have remained in history worrying about our spouses and children coming back home. We would have waited hours and hours for an appointment, never being sure whether the other person will ever turn up. We would have stayed with bulky computers instead of easy-to-carry digital toys. That is why we cannot imagine a life without technology. Does that make you love technology? Why not? We all do. You should, too. Don't you love watching movies from the comfort of your home? Don't you love work...

Would You Take Advice From a Robot?

Image
  Recently I visited a wholesale nursery where the planting operations had been taken over by robots. It saves time, money and helps with scarce labour resources. In my industry, robo-solutions are becoming more popular too. You may have seen ads for providers of low-cost, automated investment advice called "robo-advisors." They are main stream in the US and on their way to Australia. Answer a few questions online, plug in your login information, and boom! You have an investment allocation according to your age and risk tolerance. For some investors, this is perfectly appropriate. Their situation may be fairly simple and they don't need (or want to pay for) more complex or ongoing advice. The solution is OK for a small single-account portfolio. But not all financial decisions can be made with if-then statements or rules that a computer program can follow. Life is hard to automate. Some months you take home less and spend more. Sometimes, things need repair or you go on a ...

E-Communication Mania

Image
  It's approximately 2pm on a Sunday and I have probably sent 50 e-messages today. This includes social media messages, text messaging and email.   In comparison to other people, that is more than likely a very low number.  Yet, it made me think about the high percentage of communication that is conducted electronically. Instant Response Gratification If I need to connect with a friend my preferred method of contact is always text. Calling is such a bother and once you get into a conversation the entire process is prolonged. Who has time for that? Plus, I usually get an instant response. Perfect. Sounds cold but this is true for most people. We talk when we meet - hopefully. None of us want to be one of those people constantly consulting their phone when meeting with friends or worse clients! For business, my first choice is always email. Less of an instant response but the percentage is high that a response will be provided quickly. This is a bit more stressful because i...

The iPhone Looks Nice, But I Can Carry More Memory on My Keyring

Image
  Apple recently had the grand unveiling of the new iPhone. The excitement that's been generated by these new releases is incredible, yet completely expected, I mean it is Apple we're talking about. The company that has people queuing outside flagship stores 2 weeks before a release of a new product. With all the buzz about, I of course phoned my service provider and looked into when I was due an upgrade, my mouth watering at the prospect of a shiny new iPhone. Hanging up the phone satisfied with my upgrade potential, and already Googling the latest cases for protecting my potential new phone, I came across an article announcing the largest ever SD card to date, a mammoth 512GB! Granted that it's not a Micro SD card, but it's the start of something. If SanDisk are making SD cards with a punch that powerful, it won't be long until the smaller version of it will be making waves. There's already a 128GB version knocking about.   Apple are pretty much the only smart...
