Blogging for Money

Thursday, February 14th, 2008

Starting a blog is very easy these days. You can start your own blog in a matter of minutes if you want. Many web hosts will even install a blog for you or provide an easy installation process. And of course you can always use a hosted service like WordPress.com or Blogger to get started.

How to Build a Successful Online Business

Tuesday, February 12th, 2008

I love the lifestyle that comes from running an online business. I get to work from home each day, set my own hours, choose my own projects, and enjoy abundant income. It’s hard for me to imagine how I’d feed myself without the Internet. When I think about income generation, I immediately think of the web.
I was talking […]

Raw Food Diet

Monday, February 4th, 2008

This is the final postmortem of my 30 day trial of the low-fat raw food diet, which I conducted from January 1 to January 30, 2008.
The two posts I made before starting this trial explained the background on this diet and my reasons for doing this, so I won’t rehash all of that here. If […]

Diet Update

Sunday, February 3rd, 2008

Eating cooked food on January 31st after 30 days of 100% raw foods didn’t go well for me. As I posted in the Day 31 update, I was feeling poorly with a mild fever by the end of the day. I could barely sleep at all that night, and the next day my fever spiked […]

Raw Food Diet - Day 31

Thursday, January 31st, 2008

Today was my first day eating cooked food since December 31, 2007. While not technically part of the raw food diet trial, many people expressed interest in knowing what it was like to return to cooked food, so I’m happy to share those thoughts. Well, to be honest I can’t say I’m happy, since I’m […]

Raw Food Diet - Day 30

Wednesday, January 30th, 2008

Today was good overall. No problems to report aside from continued dry skin and itchiness.
Now that the trial has officially ended, it almost feels like a graduation. This has definitely been the most challenging 30-day trial I’ve done to date, but I can’t say I’m sad to see it end. I’m looking forward to eating something — […]

Raw Food Diet - Day 29

Tuesday, January 29th, 2008

Today was good overall, although I ate a couple ounces of walnuts this morning and then got really drowsy a few hours later. A short nap restored me completely. Walnuts didn’t have that kind of effect on me before this trial.
For a change of scenery, this morning I went to the Strip to do some […]

Raw Food Diet - Day 28

Monday, January 28th, 2008

Good days seem to be the norm now, and today was no exception.
I can’t remember the last time I had any daytime drowsiness. I feel totally awake and alert all day long. On my previous diet, if I really worked hard in the morning, I might take a 20-minute afternoon nap. But now I don’t […]

Raw Food Diet - Day 27

Sunday, January 27th, 2008

This was another very positive day. I finished editing another chapter of my book this afternoon. This was one of the most difficult chapters to get right, mainly because it’s the first chapter, so I’m glad to put those 7,000 words behind me. My physical energy was steady throughout the day, and my mental focus and concentration […]

Raw Food Diet - Day 26

Saturday, January 26th, 2008

Today was pretty normal but certainly on the positive side. For the most part, I enjoyed following the raw diet today and had good energy. I spent most of the day working on my book, doing tons of editing. I didn’t feel like my mental endurance or creativity was any higher than usual, but it was […]
