If you want to teach your child how to use a computer, there are a few simple steps you can take.
Konan’s not old enough yet — all he wants to do is bang on the keyboard — but if your child is, my articles for eHow outline it for you. Start with the first link before moving on to the second, which builds on the lessons:

It can be difficult to find games for your kids that are both fun and educational… or figure out how to help them enjoy school more… or find crafts that you can make with a young child.
And what about fundraising ideas that don’t involve standing out on a street corner trying to convince people to stop for a car wash — or making a bunch of baked goods that will be gone in a few days — but actually stand the test of time?
But I’ve written a few articles recently for eHow that show you how to do all those things:

I’ve just been sitting here drinking a cup of “healthy” Ganoderma Coffee. You’ve probably heard a lot of hype lately around this lately, and maybe even been courted to join an MLM program to get it.
Hey, there’s nothing wrong with the MLM model — I’ve never been actively involved in it, but I’ve been along for the ride with Barry, who has quite a bit of experience. The problem I see with it is that it can be a hollow business model if you don’t have both consumers and biz opp seekers in your downline… and the latter need to be both, but they are purchasing the product for the biz opp, not necessarily because they love the product.
Of course the products, to support the business model, are high-priced. That doesn’t make them bad products… but the best always become available through other means eventually. Just check your health food store for all the noni, goji, açai, and so forth.
For myself, I’d rather save money on the products, buy what I want when I want, and if I choose to promote something through referral marketing… let my customers do the same thing.
See, “referral marketing” can be network marketing, or it can be affiliate marketing. The first costs you money and has minimums to buy, the second costs you nothing unless you choose to buy…
And the products — the ultimate litmus test — are often just as good either way…

Last week I told you how Konan was getting out of his comfort zone by taking swimming lessons.
Yes, he was scared to try something new… like all of us are.
And it sure was hard to watch him go through it when he cried!
But by the end, he knew how to totally relax while floating on his back, and how to turn from front to back after entering the water.
At 10 months old (just today), he was the youngest in his class by far, and held his own against all the 3-year-olds.
Sure, his skill level wasn’t as advanced as theirs… but he’s a winner because he progressed beyond what he could do before.
That’s why he deserves to wear this star that was given to him for graduating from the class.
You go, Konan — you’re a star, and this is just the first of many awards, medals and trophies you’ll receive!
Daddy and I are proud of you!

Yeah, I know, it’s hard to find time these days to be healthy. Hard to find time to exercise, and hard to find time to cook healthy food. Hey, as much as I know the benefits of pure, home-cooked food rather than pre-packaged (and I can bake a mean chicken breast, while Barry’s a steak-grillin’ whiz), we too often end up eating preservative-laden meals that can be popped in the microwave, or even the dreaded fast food.
But it’s important to take self-accountability for your health.
Your body is your most prized possession while you’re here living this life.
Health is its own form of wealth, and physical health is just as important as mental and spiritual health… yet some people put it in last place.
Ya know, there’s a reason people say, “As long as you’ve got your health…”
Now, I don’t subscribe to the notion that monetary wealth doesn’t matter “as long as you’ve got your health.” All kinds of wealth are important, and monetary wealth gives you the time freedom to pursue physical health more conscientiously.
I’m just saying that too many of us tell physical health to get in the back seat.
One key that’s often missing, that can help you achieve your physical goals, is the role of the brain.
If you don’t engage and stimulate your brain with exciting and fun workouts, of course you don’t want to do them. If you don’t tantalize your brain with bold, tasty dishes, of course you don’t want to eat them.
Another way to utilize your brain in your health goals is through brainwave entrainment.
Barry and I just found a new site with some quality brainwave entrainment audios. They’re based on binaural beats, so you have to listen with stereo headphones — but they’re designed to deliver some top results as you silently meditate, by cleansing your mind, removing negative vibrations, and rejuvenating your optimism and confidence.
That increases your concentration and memory power, while prepping your body for optimal health or other functions, depending on what recording you pick. But they’re priced so reasonably, you’ll probably want a few.
The audio mix is very relaxing, with nature sounds and music mixed in for a multi-level auditory experience that I like a lot.
They call the company Unexplainable… but the results are actually explainable through science (I’m not going to unwrap that mystery of life today… you can see more on their site, though).
Check out the Overall Good Health audio, available for immediate download, as well as the other recordings… topics include manifestation, past life regression, ESP, meditation, creativity, weight loss, prosperity, and a whole lot more.

I think it’s really sad that kids don’t get taught the basic of personal development in school, and adults who discover it often act like kids — not doing what they know needs to be done, refusing to take personal responsibility, and sabotaging themselves.
If every child could learn some of the basics early on, they’d grow up to be a lot better off; more accomplished, more confident, and more emotionally intelligent; and adults wouldn’t sabotage their personal development efforts, because it would be second hat by then.

We almost take brainstorming for granted sometimes, but for kids it’s brand new. Beyond that, it’s an effective way to look beyond the obvious and find creative solutions.
