    Watch this One to Trade!

    IFLH announces Senator David Cain has joined its Board of Directors!!

    IFLH volume trading is beginning to surge with landslide Announcement. The value of this
    stock appears poised for growth! This one should not remain on the ground floor for long.

    BREAKING NEWS!!
    InterFinancial Holdings, Corp. (OTC Pink Sheets: IFLH - News) announced that they have added
    David Cain to their board of directors. David Cain is currently the Chairman of the advisory
    board to TTI (Texas Transportation Institute). Senator Cain represented Senate District 2 for
    eight years in the Texas Senate and Chaired the Senate State Affairs Subcommittee on
    Transportation and served nine terms in the Texas House of Representatives for District 107.

    During his twelve years as Chairman of the House Committee on Transportation, Senator Cain�s
    efforts on behalf of the people of Texas have been widely recognized. He was named to Texas
    Monthly Magazine�s list of Ten Best Legislators, the Dallas Morning News said he was one of
    the outstanding legislators of the 73rd session, and the Texas Department of Transportation
    awarded him the Russell H. Perry Award in 1995 for his efforts to gain public awareness of
    the need for and benefits of transportation facilities in the State of Texas.

    Jeffrey C. Bruteyn, Managing Director, stated, We at InterFinancial are proud to have such a
    widely recognized Senator join our board and oversee out automotive lending division. His
    affiliations and connections to the automotive industry will be invaluable to our company.
    Senator Cain will be instrumental in expediting our approval to use a government issued Seller
    Finance License.

    Seller Finance Licenses are very difficult to obtain and are usually reserved for the Big Boys
    with heavy lobbyists. These licenses are highly coveted because it allows the finance company
    to collect the entire down payment, instead of paying a portion of it to the taxing authority.
    This dramatically helps a finance company�s bottom line if the buyer defaults on the loan.

    With the new GPS tracking systems being installed on every car to dramatically improve
    repossessions and with Senator Cain on the Board of Directors, InterFinancial Holdings
    is ready to take their business to the next level.

    Conclusion:

    The examples above show the Awesome, Earning Potential of little known Companies
    That Explode onto Investor�s Radar Screens. This stock will not be a Secret for long.
    Then You May Feel the Desire to Act Right Now! And Please Watch This One Trade!!
    GO IFLH!

  • I’m about to make you think.
    It might be painful.

    Have you done anything earth shattering lately?

    Read anything that really sets your mind on fire with a passion to do good?

    How about doing something important for yourself?

    Have you?

    Do you know without a doubt where you will be living a few years from now, what you will be doing?

    Got a Plan?

    Know how to get there?

    You gotta have goals!

    I enjoy blog surfing and when I find one that makes me think a bit I like to leave a little nuget behind that may help the writer.

    What will you do with this “nugget”? Ignore it or use it…

    Here’s yours;

    Write Goals Down

    This crystallizes your goals and gives them more force. In writing your goals down, you are better able to keep up with your scheduled tasks for each accomplishment. It also helps you to remember each task that needs to be done and allows you to check them off as they are accomplished.

    Basically, you can better keep track of what you are doing so as not to repeat yourself unnecessarily.

    Set lifetime goals. At least have an idea of what you want to accomplish with your life.

    Keep the low-level goals you are working towards small and easy to achieve. If a goal is too large, then it can seem that you are not making progress towards it.

    Keeping goals small and incremental allows you more opportunities for reward. Derive today's goals from larger ones. It is a great way to accomplish your goals.

    Set Performance Goals, not outcome goals

    You should take care to set goals over which you have as much control as possible. There is nothing more dispiriting than failing to achieve a personal goal for reasons that are beyond your control.

    These could be bad business environments, poor judging, bad weather, injury, or just plain bad luck. If you base your goals on personal your performance, then you can keep control over the achievement of your goals and get satisfaction from achieving them.

    Set Realistic Goals. It is important to set goals that you can achieve.

    All sorts of people (parents, media, and society) can set unrealistic goals for you which is almost a guarantee of failure. They will often do this in ignorance of your own desires and ambitions or flat out disinterest.

    Alternatively you may be naive in setting very high goals. You might not appreciate either the obstacles in the way, or understand quite how many skills you must master to achieve a particular level of performance.

    By being realistic you are increasing your chances of success.

    Do not set your goals to low.

    Just as it is important not to set goals unrealistically high; do not set them too low.

    People tend to do this where they are afraid of failure or where they simply don’t want to do anything.

    You should set goals so that they are slightly out of your immediate grasp, but not so far that there is no hope of achieving them. No one will put serious effort into achieving a goal that they believe is unattainable.

    However, remember that your belief that a goal is unrealistic may be incorrect. If this could be the case, you can to change this belief by using imagery effectively.

    Good Luck and Happy Goal Setting!

    Hi Mubarak

    After reading a good blog I tend to analyze it to see what the person behind it might be like.

    I've been in the goal setting business a while now and just like most people with experience in different areas of expertise, I can tell a lot about a person just by speaking to them or reading something they've written.

    You haven't wrtten any goals on paper for awhile have you? And if you have I'll bet you haven't looked at them for a long time. Right?

    Goal setting is hard work, and harder still if you don't have short range goals, mid range goals and long range goals.

    I think you'll agree that few people really take the time to set goals of any kind.

    When is the last time you really thought about setting some real goals, or are you like the vast majority of people who just "hope for the best"?

    You already know successful people aren't "just lucky", they know how to set effective goals and reach them.

    I was like that once, you might be also.

    How about changing all that.

    Come on over to goals+ and learn exactly how to set effective goals, act on them and be the real you.

    There's a ton of FREE information and who knows, this little insert in your blog might well change your life!

    Happy New Year!
