Another Sunny morning in Stockholm!


Good Sunny morning from Stockholm!

Checking out what has happened during the night. Concepts such as "daytime" and "office hours" have lost their meaning with the arrival of internet.

We are working globally nowadays! When it is nighttime in Stockholm some other place on earth have their office hours.

Anyway, have a fun-tastic day or night wherever you are :)

Finished two articles!



Sunday with both rain and sunshine in Stockholm.

I took advantage of weather well adapted to work and brought my laptop to an outdoor café. Sitting in the sunshine/rain I wrote two articles on the subject of twitter.com

They are now waiting for approval at the publishers.

Lovely sunny morning in Stockholm

Write a few articles

I spend the evening writing articles about twitter!

After a week on twitter I have gained some experience and learned a lot about what it is. Writing it down gives many advantages:
- The process of writing enhances my understanding of what I learned
- Sharing my thoughts can give feedback and start discussions whether I am wrong or right
- Drives traffic to my websites

Welcome to read my articles and comment, I will let you know when and where they are published.

Have fun!

Saturday afternoon at my desk

Saturday afternoon and Midsummers day... Energized after a long walk and a good lunch. Everything is closed because of the holiday. A good time for some work!

Just light up that spark of inspiration, now where did it go... :)

Have fun!
/Tomas

Going for a Saturday walk:)


Today is Midsummer's day. Weather in Stockholm is ok, some sunshine, some clouds, and a little bit on the cold side. Perfect weather for a long walk! I need that after long hours in front of the computer...

Have fun,

Hope for nice weather during the weekend :) Right now it is raining...

Marketing on twitter.com


Been on twitter for a good week now. Interesting experience! And have found so many products, services and programs of all possible kinds...

I did an interesting experiment: I promoted my 2 years old Ezine articles every 30 minutes for approx 48 hours. The result was approx 500 new reads according to Ezine statistics. I will write a new article on ezine about the experiment.

My initial question, whether twitter is a huge "write-only" bulletin board, remains to be solved. Obviously some people are actually reading the tweets, even if probably the vast majority promotes their own stuff without looking at other's tweets.

/Tomas

Happy Midsummer



Today we celebrate Midsummer Festival in Sweden! The shortest night of the year!

To the right please find the Midsummer-pole, the thing we dance around and play funny games!

Happy Midsummer!

Back from lunch


Back from a delicious lunch :)

Eagerly throwing myself at the keyboard... website need update, articles need to be written, affiliate programs need to be applied for... Perhaps even hire someone to help with website construction!

Have a wonderful afternoon!

/Tomas

Time for lunch


Hey! Where did this morning go? Handling emails, some phone calls, messages and - whooosh - it is lunchtime!

I think I shall have a foccacia here at Café Helga, it tastes very well and I save a lot of time not needing to go somewhere!

Have fun,
/Tomas

WELCOME TO MY NEW BLOG



Dear blog reader,

Welcome to my new blog! From now on this is the place to follow my daily adventures when learning, setting up, growing and monetizing an online business.

Thank you for reading. I hope you enjoy it!

/Tomas

Ka-Chiiing :)


Monetize, monetize, monetize...


Online business opens up endless opportunities :)
And the possibility to work from anywhere in the world... anytime... !
Time to go home now, for some more opportunity hunting from my home office ;)

Keep looking for business opportunities!


Back from a delicious lunch at the "Nr 1 Thai restaurant" in Sundbyberg. Back in my office at Café Helga.
And back to look for online business opportunities :)
Have fun!
/Tomas

Lunch break!

Spent the morning looking for affiliate programs, and found several interesting programs.

Now I shall have lunch. Today I will go to a Thai place nearby for a change. Back to Café Helga soon. See you!

Fantastic internet...


Internet is truly amazing!
You can find absolutely ANYTHING there! A problem is to filter the information; What is credible, what is true, what is relevant...
When using the internet for business you certainly have the entire world as your market, billions of potential customers to your service, your product, your whatever... And on the other hand you compete with the entire world!
Internet offers new opportunities, and requires new ways-of-working. Interesting, Challenging... :)

A new business day


Woke up to clear skies! Very welcome after several days of heavy clouds and rain :)
At my office now, Café Helga in Sundbyberg! Checking what happened overnight... Exciting!
Online business is fascinating because it is truly world-wide. So while I sleep things are happening in e.g. Australia and America. The concept of "daytime" gets quite a different meaning ;)

Business opportunity!



This is something I found that seems like a very good opportunity:

Good Night!

I got a lot of things done in my apartment today!

Got rid of lots of things. Things that I have not used for long time I might as well dispose of. Carry around far too much unnecessary stuff in this world!

Now time for a good nights sleep.

Sleep Well!

A cloudy, grey and rainy morning in Stockholm! Long for some sunshine and warm summer temperatures...
Anyway, a this is a good day to organize my apartment! and do some more experiments with my online business! Check me out at http://twitter.com/t2yes
Have fun!


Time to go to sleep!

One more inspiring day have passed. Before falling asleep I will think about what I learned today, what I did well, what things I shall be grateful about...

See you tomorrow :)

Problems or Opportunities

You have problems? Or you have opportunities?
It is a matter of attitude!

When something is not the way you want it to be it is easy to call it a "problem". In fact it is an opportunity! An opportunity to learn, an opportunity to grow, an opportunity improve something... an opportunity to make life become the way you want it to be!

"I HAVE A PROBLEM"
or
"I HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY"

Taste the different feeling when you say it! So which one gives more quality to your life?Your choice!

Walk in the rain


Hello again!
Had a nice walk in the rain... I come back wet but HAPPY :)
Walking is a good opportunity for positive thinking + get fresh air and excercise.
Walking is excercise for body and brain!

Time for a nice walk around the local lake here in Sundbyberg.

Grey, rain and wet outdoors... Good weather for a walk :)

Facebook


I have had a facebook account for long time but never really used it. But I will make a serious attempt now ;) Connecting my Facebook and Twitter worlds:

631 twitter followers :)


Ok, ok... so it might rain today. Better stay at home and do work on my online business web site instead.
And some twittering of course :)

Grey Saturday morning


Good Morning, world!
A grey morning in Stockholm... looks like risk for rain!
Have to check weather report for today! Plans were to go Harley in the afternoon...

400 followers on Twitter :)

Celebrating my 400 followers on Twitter :)

Going to sleep now, 1:05am in Sweden! Have FUN, see you tomorrow :)


PS: 1:25 reached 418 followers :)
Sleep well...
