Credit Repair Business Opportunities - Huge Profit Potential!
In the world today, many people are further in debt than they realize. When they finally come to understand they need help, they are on the brink of bankruptcy. However, President Bush’s signature on the new bankruptcy law has changed this option. He has created booming credit repair business opportunities.This boom is the result of the new law requiring people to obtain consumer credit counseling before they are eligible to claim bankruptcy. Even when they can claim bankruptcy, it is now the Chapter 13 bankruptcy, which requires a payment pl

In Part 1 of this article, I described a 'mardy bum', how you behave when being mardy and what the underlying reasons can be for being one! In this second part of the article you can see how to stop being one...

Using the example of an unsigned artist being mardy before going to into the recording studio for the first time, take a look at the following tips to help you stop being mardy in the future:

Tip 1: Take 5 minutes to look at the underlying issues. What is the root cause of you feeling mardy? Try to be as honest with yourself as possible. This is not always an easy exercise to undertake and can take several questions to yourself to tease out what exactly is causing you to behave in a mardy way.

For example, your internal dialogue might go something like this: What are you feeling right now? "Anxious". What is causing this anxiety? "I'm nervous of going into the recording studio". What is it about the recording studio that makes you feel anxious? "I don't know what to expect and I'm frightened of making mistakes and the engineer and/or producer thinking that I can't sing or play and that I'm rubbish and stupid!"

Bingo! You now have the root cause of your mardy bumness! You are worried what other people in the music industry might think of you and your work, which can be interpreted as a lack of confidence of self-belief.

Tip 2: Take a look at the evidence. Having got to the root cause of you being mardy, you can now take a closer look at the issue itself and see what evidence you have to substantiate it.

E.g. How much preparation have you undertaken before this moment of going into the recording studio? "Loads". What feedback have you had from other people about you and your songs? "It's all been very positive so far".

Please expand on this and write down exactly what you have done so far to make you ready to record your first song(s), alongside examples of the positive feedback you have received.

You have:

• written the 4 songs to be recorded - both music and lyrics and know them off by heart.
• rehearsed each morning and night for the last 3 months to make the songs tight.
• performed 12 gigs to live audiences in your local area - who have loved your work.
• now got a fan base of 1,000 people on your mailing list and this is constantly rising.
• and so on...

So, what makes you think that performing these songs in a studio will be any different from you rehearsing or performing live in front of an audience? "There isn't any differ

When Is It Time For A Dedicated Server
A shared server works for a good deal of people, but when your website continues to grow and you simply need more bandwidth, software, or ram you need to look at investing in a dedicated server. A dedicated server not only gives you more control, bandwidth, software options, and ram it also gives you the security you need to ensure that your website is as secure as possible for both you and your website users. A dedicated server makes more sense for those that are going places and simply need more from their website.Much of the problem with

So, what makes you think that performing these songs in a studio will be any different from you rehearsing or performing live in front of an audience? "There isn't any difference really".

And what makes you think that the 1,000 people on your mailing list are wrong, against 2 people in the recording studio who may or may not like your music - after all who is your audience? "Hmm. I see what you mean".

Tip 3: Communicating your fears. There is no shame in sharing your worries with those around you or even with those you fear the most! Rather that, than staying the mardy bum whom no-one likes. This way you will find that the majority of people will go out of their way to help you, reassure you and guide you.

E.g. Your dialogue with the engineer and/or producer may go something like this: "Hi, pleased to meet you, I'm Kev, I've never been in a recording studio before and don't know the drill, but I'm really wanting to make the most out of this session with you and so would be very grateful for your guidance".

Make sure that whilst speaking that you have good eye contact and that you smile when introducing yourself. Also, from here on in, listen carefully to everything they tell you and act on it, take an interest in what they do and ask them questions - they will love you for it - and it builds good working relationships with them - it will even make them more open to liking your music!

I hope this example will help you to work on some of your own issues that make you mardy, but if you are finding it hard to deal with yourself, I may be able to help you. Just send me an email to request a free consultation and let me know when and to whom you are being a mardy bum and I'll promise not to quote any more Arctic Monkeys songs at you! lindsey@bravura-group.com
