Twitter As A Marketing Tool, Part 1: How To Build An Army Of Loyal Followers!
Twitter (http://www.twitter.com) is a communication platform that has exploded into one of the largest social network sites in the world with only Facebook and MySpace serving more users. This may soon change as more and more individuals and businesses alike realize the potential leverage that twitter has to offer over its competition. 10’s or even 100’s of thousands of followers are possible with the right strategy. This is what separates the casual twitter user from the power user..simply put, an action plan! We want to maximize our efficiency and build a following of like minded individuals who are in essence a targeted list of people interested in our niche.
Building the list is only the first step as the whole purpose of social networking is to engage in communication through relationship building. As a result of our efforts, we will also drive traffic back to our blogs and websites where even further relationship building can take place. Read more
The Yoga of Twitter
The word yoga literally means to yoke or unite. This union is nothing short of divine. A conscious merging of the self (ego) with the self (pure consciousness). This may also include uniting with the consciousness of others of like mind. The Sanskrit word which best describes this is Shangha or community. There are many steps in the yogic process which reveal who we are as well as our view of the external world and our relationship to it.
One of the steps that allows us to recognize our innateness is simply observation. Our tweets become a reflection of our deepest values, desires, likes and dislikes. Our consciousness becomes etched in our tweets 140 characters at a time (or less). Like a stream of thought molecules flowing like a river of reflective energy expressing our awareness. If we step back, we can observe the patterns that shape our minds as well as the greater collective. We can then make conscious choices to either reshape those thoughts and in some cases express them as action in the real world. In other words, tweets can shape our day to day thinking and may influence not only our actions but also the actions of others. Read more
PRACTICAL YOGA: WHY WE PRACTICE
The yogic experience is different for each person considering its many branches and disciplines. Spirituality in general is a vast ocean in which the seeker must navigate through the storm of one’s own thoughts and emotions as well as sift through the various paths in order to find a paradigm that works for you. Depending on your orientation, selfless service, devotion, meditation and more, serve as elements we incorporate into our practice.
As our spiritual training deepens and evolves, it is important that we ask or remind ourselves of the goal. Not from an idealistic but from a practical standpoint. Most of us will not become enlightened in this life nor is it about the cultivation of yogic (spiritual) powers as an end result (they will come naturally as a by-product of our Sadhana). As we interact with people at work, family members, a spouse, society in general, as we gain (and lose) friends and lovers, deal with all manner of triumphs and tribulations, we must remain fixed on the one aspect of our practice that should reside at the forefront of our consciousness. In a word, Transformation. Read more
