Self Doubt and Success

Many people I know of achieved success because they believed that they could do it. Self doubt and success never go hand in hand. If you are a businessman and have doubts about you achieving success, you will never be successful. People achieve success because they believe that they can do it. If they had an approach that they cannot achieve anything, they would not be able to achieve anything. The real key to success is to believe that you are going to succeed. Even if you do not succeed at the end, at least you believed in yourself this whole time. This is something that counts.

New Year

This is going to be my last post this year, but that is simply because New Year’s Eve is coming up fast. It seems that this year has passed extremely fast and I am sure that other people have this feeling as well. This blog has been up for quite a while now and it seems that it is going in the right direction, so I am happy about it. Since 2012 is coming very soon it might be a good idea to come up with a resolution. It might be a good time to decide that you want to start a blog. If you already have a blog, then you may want to have a resolution that you will continue working on it.

Internet TV

This time I would like to discuss internet TV. Internet TV usually includes interactive pages with embedded video streams. The question is whether it is better to watch TV on your standard TV set or on your monitor while waking advantage of Internet TV. Well, these days watching TV on your traditional TV set might still be a better option. Nonetheless, the quality of internet TV is increasing rapidly. That is because as bandwidth increases, the quality of the stream increases as well. More and more people have connections with higher bandwidth and that is required for internet TV to function properly.

My First Post

‘Modern Living’ is a blog, which I planned quite a long time ago. Actually, I already set up this blog some time ago and continued blogging for a month, but due to lack of time, I was forced to close it down. The good news is that I decided to start all over again, and I am certain this time I will be able to invest more time into this blog. Anyway, this blog is going to discuss various issues associated with modern living, technology, and generally the World Wide Web. It is amazing how these things changed our lives, so I believe that they deserve to be blogged about. Blogging is a relatively new concept in itself, but it is getting more and more popular, so I hope that this blog will help all of those who are interested these subject. I will also discuss anything else that I will find interesting that is related in any way to modern living. Free to use the contact from if you would like to request some specific topics discussed on my blog.
