Life is a cycle of joys and sorrows. Most of us are carried away by them and feel happy or unhappy accordingly. Our seers have contemplated a lot on this subject and have advised us to rise above both of them. They say that there is no absoluteness about them and both are fleeting moments of life. In other words, joy and sorrow are only external happenings and affect us only when we come to know of such happenings. If we are ignorant about them, they create no effect on us. Also, the same event creates a different feeling in different persons. It depends upon our relationship with the event at that point of time. If they were absolute, they would evoke same feelings in all of us even if we didn't know about them. In addition, the impact of any event, good or bad, fades with time and we remain affected neither by a good event nor by a bad event in due course of time.
I am narrating a personal experience here to support the above. It was in May, 1983, when I was posted as District Magistrate in Basti. At that time, one of my close friends was posted as District Magistrate in Almora (at that time Uttarakhand was a part of UP). He invited us to visit Almora, which is one of the most beautiful hill stations in India. Those days, my father-in-law, who was in Delhi, was not well and there was a risk to his life. However, after being assured that there was no immediate danger, I decided to undertake the trip with my family. My friend had made good arrangements for our stay and travel within the district.
There were several places worth visiting including Ranikhet, known as the 'Queen of Hills'. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and had a nice time. At that time, communication by telephone was not very advanced. Hill districts, in particular, had poor services and it was very difficult to get in touch even with Delhi. As a result, we had no information about the condition of my father-in-law. As we were returning to Basti from Almora, we stopped briefly at Lucknow, and I contacted Delhi from there. I learnt that my father-in-law had passed away two days back and by that time he had also been cremated. This came as a great shock to us and I, with my wife, travelled to Delhi the same evening and observed the mourning period there.
While all this was being done, the philosophical thoughts about our joy at Almora and sorrow after learning about the death kept occupying my mind. This contemplation made me believe that our joy is nothing but our ignorance and by the same logic, our sorrow is equally our ignorance. A wise person neither gets elated with joy nor gets depressed by sorrow. Since then, I have been trying to imbibe this wisdom.
intelligence of his minister by asking him some seemingly strange questions which were always answered cleverly.
Once Akbar drew a straight line on a piece of paper and asked Birbal to shorten it without erasing any part of it. Birbal contemplated for a minute and then drew a longer line by its side. The emperor and everyone in the court were greatly pleased and amused to see how Birbal had tackled the problem. I have viewed this incident with philosophical interest and have drawn an important lesson from it. The approach adopted by Birbal indicates a very positive approach. In real life we come across many situations which have to be overcome without hurting anyone, including ourselves. Someone may have insulted us or hurt us, or some problem may be troubling us. A common man's approach may be either to suffer silently or to react destructively. This helps no one, least of all the person himself. When we think of destroying someone, we create negative impulses and in the process, harm ourselves.
The same situation can be dealt with in just the opposite manner. Instead of spending our energy in destruction, we may utilize it in construction. By adopting this approach, we raise ourselves above the person or the situation which has been troubling us. This automatically dwarfs them and in the process makes us bigger. From a worldly point of view, this may be called revenge on the person or the situation which troubled us.
greater determination and surpassed even the nations which caused them such humiliation and destruction. All these examples show that people did not surrender or act in a violent manner when a person or situation upset them. They overcome them constructively and in the process raised themselves above the person and the situation.
Once I went on an official tour to Assam and Meghalaya. In Shillong my colleague and I had some spare time and so we decided to drive up to Cherrapunji. The drive was very beautiful and we came across some rare natural beauty on the way. We ate our packed lunch on the way, sitting on a parapet wall on the roadside. The sight of the hillock on the opposite side was superb. So much so that despite being a steel man, I started thinking how beautiful the earth would have been without any steel. Anyway it was a momentary thought and after sometime we drove further. At Cherrapunji we sat in a small restaurant, looking at the surroundings and tasting some local sweets. There we met a person who must have been in his fifties.
By his looks and expression, he appeared to be an educated man hailing from North India. Perhaps he was the owner of or a frequent visitor to the restaurant. When asked he told us that he was from Punjab. One of our colleagues asked him how he had decided to settle down in Cherrapunji and how he liked the place. He did not like being asked all these questions saying these were personal matters and required a long time to explain. However, he told that he had retired from the BSF and most of his family members were settled in Canada. Since he did not like going there, he decided to stay back at Cherrapunji. He also said that he did not dislike anything except dishonesty and fraud. Though he did not hold a very good opinion about the locals, on the whole he liked the place. This attitude of the man impressed me a lot. Obviously the matter was not so simple. He must have had deep wounds within him. Yet he had adopted a positive approach to life by refusing to dislike his environment. While driving back to Shillong we talked about him and we all appreciated his attitude.
The whole thing set me thinking that there was a great lesson to be learnt from him. I, myself, believe in the same approach to life. When I decided to come to Calcutta, many friends and well-wishers asked me whether I liked the place. My answer had always been that I had never thought of disliking the place. And believe me I meant it too. I do not mean to say that there is nothing to dislike in Calcutta. In fact, there is plenty but what is the point in dwelling upon them? One can always identify so many likable things in any given situation and need not pay attention to others. If one can adopt this approach to life, life becomes much more beautiful. To be fair in my assessment of the person we met at Cherrapunji, I would say that though he was apparently happy, there appeared to be some bitterness within him. That is why he did not like being asked about his personal life. This dislike was against his claim that he did not dislike anything. He also said that he did not like dishonesty and fraud. While he was correct from a worldly point of view, going a little deeper would reveal that even this dislike is negative. While things like dishonesty, fraud, ugliness, etc., are to be opposed, there is no point in disliking them. The thought of disliking adversely affects us and creates disharmony.
This way we become the victim for no fault of ours. It is like saying, 'hate the sin, not the sinner.' If we follow this advice, peace will never be lost. There is one more way of looking at things. The whole creation of God consists of opposites. In fact, without opposites, there will be no existence. For example, we can talk of the good only so long the bad also exists. Similarly, there is no meaning of pleasure without pain. This logic can also be extended to all other things. Beauty has to co-exist with ugliness. Piousness is to coexist with wickedness. Honesty is to co-exist with dishonesty, so on and so forth. If we accept this fact of life, we have no reason to dislike anything. All things have to be accepted as they are. The only freedom we have is to play our own role in the best possible way in given circumstances. Whatever way we approach, there is no point in our disliking a situation and by refusing to dislike it we can turn every situation into something we like.
I often recall a small event of 1983 when I was posted as Collector of a district, where in an old Sanskrit college a function was being organised. The management of the institution had approached me before the function to be the Chief Guest. The institution was located at a distance from the district headquarters and I was not sure of being able to spare sufficient time for the programme which meant a long journey too. Moreover, I did not consider myself to be the appropriate Chief Guest for such an institution. However, on insistence from the management, I had agreed.
Soon the day of the function arrived. It was in the afternoon and I had some very important papers to see at the headquarters. I was in two minds about whether to go for the programme or not, knowing that a collector can always excuse himself on some pretext or the other. That temptation came to my mind also. But in the meanwhile, one member of the management had come to my office to accompany me to the institution, so I reluctantly went with him. In my mind I was not sure whether the time spent on the function would be worthwhile or not. At that time I had become a life member of the Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan and its fortnightly journal used to reach me regularly. Usually, I read it while travelling, and on that day since the latest issue was with me, I went through the Bhavan's journal. Apart from the text, this journal contains some sayings and thoughts from various sources written prominently in spare spaces. These thoughts are normally very inspiring. That day, soon after we started, I came across a thought which was like this: 'Fortunate are those who keep their promise, be it good or sinful'. This single sentence removed all my hesitation and I became enthusiastic about the programme which was organized very well. We all felt very happy about it.
This incident made me contemplate. All of us face situations when we find it difficult to keep our word or promise. Those who are sensitive face a conflict in the mind, particularly when sufficient reasons do not exist for not keeping one's word or promise. Quite often even such persons give untrue reasons for not keeping them, doing this mainly to satisfy themselves rather than others. Gradually, this becomes a habit; no wonder today we find many responsible persons whose word or promises have no meaning and who keep others in uncertainty even without sufficient justification. My contemplation in this regard has led me to the conclusion that for a sincere and truthful person, situations of such conflict hardly arise. Once we are firm in our resolve that we shall always keep our word or promise, events occur in such a manner that they are kept effortlessly. After the above-mentioned incident, I made it almost a sadhana to keep my word unless a situation arose when not keeping them became my duty. In that case, there has been no feeling of guilt or uneasiness. Gradually, a stage comes when we speak only those words which we are able to abide by effortlessly. Nature also creates circumstances accordingly. Personally, I have experienced many situations where I was surprised by the turn of events which made it possible to honour a commitment. The same situation then extends to our thoughts and we entertain only those thoughts which are actually converted into action.
I am not giving any specific events here because the intention is only to make a point. Here it is clarified that the point made is not as simple as it appears. The whole process requires a great deal of wisdom and maturity. To reach a stage when one's words or thoughts are taken care of by nature, one has to undergo constant refinement and ripening. The first step is that words should be spoken after a great deal of thinking, and casual speaking should come to a stop. 'Think before you speak and not vice versa' has to be always kept in mind. It is better to keep silent if we are not sure of ourselves. One can always choose suitable words to deal with a particular situation in order to avoid further embarrassment.
Once we start doing so, our words have a weight of meaning and others take us seriously. The process starts from here. The second important step is that a promise or thought of action should arise as a result of duty, keeping in view the means available to us at a particular point of time. At times duty demands certain action on our part but means may not permit it. In such a situation, promises should be given accordingly. Thirdly, while giving promises one should be free from anger, envy, hatred or sentiments. Words spoken in such a state of mind normally create a difficult situation and disturb one's peace of mind in the long run. Lastly, we must mean what we say and apply ourselves fully to keep our word. Nature helps us primarily through ourselves, and when we apply ourselves sincerely, conditions are so created that others also help. Once the above requirements are met, the process becomes natural and we are effortlessly able to keep our word. In fact, our will in that case becomes His will and we consider ourselves only the instruments. Even an apparently sinful act then becomes a part of our sadhana and leads to perfection.

Hague-based appeals court overturns 2011 ruling of tribunal holding Momcilo Perisic guilty of crimes during Balkan wars.
A UN war crimes appeals court has acquitted Momcilo Perisic, the former chief of staff for the Yugoslav army, of all charges and ordered his immediate release.
In September 2011, the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) found the ex-general guilty of war crimes and crimes against humanity for his involvement in atrocities committed during the Balkan wars of the 1990s - including the massacre at Srebrenica - and sentenced him to 27 years in prison.
The Hague-based appeals court ruled on Thursday that Perisic's guilt had not been proven beyond a reasonable doubt.
Judge Theodor Meron of the ICTY appeals chamber ordered "the immediate release" of Perisic, 68, a former right-hand man of late Serbian leader Slobodan Milosevic.
Perisic's acquittal means that no official from the Belgrade-controlled Yugoslav republic has now been convicted for crimes committed in Bosnia.
The only other senior Yugoslav official to be implicated for the Srebrenica massacre was Milosevic, who died mid-trial in his Hague detention cell in 2006.
Thursday's judgement is the latest in a string of acquittals at the ICTY, but the freeing of a Serbian military leader will be welcomed in Belgrade where the court has been perceived as biased.
Perisic was found guilty of 12 of 13 counts of war crimes and crimes against humanity in the 2011 ruling.
The charges included helping the Bosnian Serb army murder and persecute Bosnian Muslims at Srebrenica, scene of Europe's worst wartime atrocity since World War II, and the shelling and sniping of the Bosnian capital, Sarajevo, during its infamous siege from 1992-95 and the siege of Croatia's Zagreb.
But the appeals chamber on Thursday ruled that "Mr Perisic's convictions for aiding and abetting must be reversed on the ground that not all the elements of aiding and abetting have been proven beyond reasonable doubt", according to Meron.
"Mr Perisic was not proved beyond reasonable doubt to have facilitated assistance specifically directed towards VRS [Bosnian Serb army] crimes in Sarajevo and Srebrenica," Meron said.
"Instead, a reasonable interpretation of the record is that VJ [Yugoslav army] aid facilitated by Mr Perisic was directed towards the Bosnian Serb army's general war effort rather than VRS crimes."
Perisic, dressed in a charcoal suit, light blue shirt and black-and-white spotted tie, showed no emotion as the verdict was read.
Just before the hearing started, he was seen reading from a Bible and made extensive notes during the hour-long reading.
His lawyer Novak Lukic praised the outcome.
"I feel great. He's a free man. The Appeals Chamber have confirmed what we have always been saying about his innocence," Lukic told AFP minutes afterwards.
Lukic said Perisic had gone back to the ICTY's nearby detention unit to pack his things "including 200 books".
"We are in the process of arranging his release from the detention unit and putting him onto a plane back to Belgrade," he said.


The 1997 Conference on the World Climate Research Programme to the Third Conference of the Parties of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change concluded that the global capacity to observe the Earth's climate system is inadequate and is deteriorating worldwide. As a result, the chair of the subcommittee of the U.S. Global Change Research Program (USGCRP) requested a National Research Council study to assess the current status of the climate observing capabilities of the United States. This report focuses on existing observing systems for detection and attribution of climate change, with special emphasis on those systems with long time series.

I am sure all of you are familiar with this wonderful spice known as 'Turmeric'.Apart from being a common kitchen staple in India,it is also widely used in beauty regime by many.
Today, I'll be sharing a simple and effective way oily skin people can use turmeric. Follow this Turmeric Face Mask For Oily Skin recipe. But first, let's have a look at some of the wonderful benefits of turmeric.
I had been experimenting with few turmeric face masks at home. The reason I shifted more towards natural beauty remedies has a story.Two months back I had to tackle crazy sudden breakouts around and close to my chin. Going for a facial at that moment was the worst and most stupid decision I had ever taken. It only made my face more red and real bad. Never go for facial when you have breakouts, it will just spread more. So, long story short, I wanted to share this very simple turmeric face mask recipe that helped me to get rid of the acne and gradually lighten those stubborn acne scars. I have an oily skin so this recipe is specially suitable for those with oily skin.
Natural remedies takes time to show results, but it does work!
Mix all the ingredients together to get a thick paste.
Apply the mask all over your face .
Do this once or twice a week to see the desired results.
If you are using turmeric for the first time, ensure that you do a patch test prior to using the remedy.


This is a real Solo Build It! Review by someone who actually uses (and loves) SBI!
In this Solo Build It! review I'll share some of my personal story in order to provide some context about where I was starting from and what led me to create an online business.
Finally, I'll share my experiences with SiteSell and their product Solo Build It! as someone who actually uses them.
When I was a kid my dad always worked in sales. First in insurance and later in real estate. There was the illusion of freedom because he could work his own hours. In reality though he was at the beck and call of clients at all hours of the day and night. It was great that he didn't work by the hour and there wasn't a set limit on how much income he could earn.
When I started my career at The Calgary Herald (back when newspapers were still a thing) I joined the advertising design and production department. It was a unionized environment and came with decent pay, clearly outlined raises, benefits, retirement plan, and paid vacation time!
Paid vacations?! You mean I don't work at all—and I still get paid? This was a far cry from the instability I knew while growing up and it seemed ideal.
I thought the position at the newspaper had it all. Best of all there was structure. Stable working hours, stable income, and a stable future. I would soon learn how wrong I was as the dream turned into a soul-crushing nightmare.
I loved that job and I was exceptionally good at it—and that was the problem. As I mentioned, it was a union environment. I didn't really know what that meant when I first got the job. It was just a condition of employment. I thought, "Okay, I have to join the union, whatever."
Things started off well enough. I progressed and earned promotions and raises. I met the love of my life, we got married, bought a house together, and got two cats and yes—an Australian Shepherd! We named him "Levi" after the blue jeans; 'cause he was a blue merle. :) Life was great!
My beautiful bride Tanya and I were "living the dream" before things were derailed.
Since I was getting paid extremely well by my employer I thought I should be doing a really great job and earning my keep. I did everything I could to help the newspaper. I joined in special projects and even helped start the commercial print division. Then I developed software that I sold to the company that helped improve efficiency—dramatically. It was fantastic, if I do say so myself, and it was rolled out for production use in three departments. I was on top of the world!
While managers were thrilled with my contributions the union goons were less impressed. In a workplace like this anyone who believes that holding up their end of the bargain by actually doing an honest day's work for an honest day's pay is made a pariah and targeted for elimination.
You can probably see where this is going... It wasn't long before a campaign of harassment, threats, and intimidation began. My work related files began to go missing, other files were sabotaged, and I was slandered to management at every opportunity. One of them even took the time to get my address, drive to my home, and leave a threatening message.
This went on for weeks, then months, then years. Maybe I should have quit. But I thought, why should I be the one to lose my job? Besides, I now had a mortgage, car payments, and a family to think of. My skill set was also highly vertical. I couldn't just get another job in the same industry—not at nearly the same pay (half of what I was making if I was lucky).
My morning greeting at work.
I was finally terminated after 22 years with the company. I received $0.00 in severance. I went from earning a great income to nothing overnight.
Later, a Human Rights Commission investigator broke down in tears as she told me about what she had uncovered about the conduct of management and the union. She learned that the Human Resources department and the union had been encouraging ongoing and escalating abuse in an attempt to drive me to commit suicide.
Instead, the stress they caused had so damaged my health that it forced me to take time off work. This was the excuse they then used to fire me (instead of continuing with Plan A) and I was actually on short-term disability attempting to recover from the injuries they inflicted when I was terminated.
By that time I had been so stressed for so long that it had destroyed my health. I was suffering from PTSD and wasn't functional even if I could have found another job. I was in sheer panic knowing what was yet to come.
To cover the mortgage and bills our savings were drained, my retirement plan was up in smoke, and eventually we lost everything. Short of me committing suicide, the worst of the worst-case-scenario nightmares had come to pass.
Even if you are not dealing with a workplace mob of malevolent morons, if you are an employee you are still vulnerable to the vagaries of the market, business cycles, and the global economy that are well beyond your control. The economic climate for the poor and middle-class has decimated families for the last 20 years; certainly in the last ten.
I decided that I never again wanted be under the thumb of people who couldn't care less about me or my family (let alone those who are actively hateful and homicidal); that I never again wanted to be in the position of needing to stay at a job; that I never again wanted to be vulnerable to financial ruin—at least as much as is possible in the real world—but how?!
If you're still reading this; good for you! You've got one of the qualities necessary to succeed in business—persistence. ;) I didn't actually intend for the foregoing part of this Solo Build It! review to be so long. But I wanted to share with you the place I was starting from to give you a bit of context.
Perhaps you've been through a similar ordeal, or worse, and you already know, all too well, how bad things can get. Hopefully, nothing like that has ever happened to you and you just want to make sure that it never does. It may sound like a story of bitterness and disillusionment—and it would have been—if the story had ended there. Fortunately, it did not.
After what had happened I wanted to help warn others about the phenomenon of workplace bullying or workplace "mobbing" as it is often called when groups of people attack a co-worker. I didn't know anything about creating a website then. I just forged ahead and created a site.
That first site is no longer maintained and it barely got any traffic, but it helped me get my feet wet and opened my mind to the idea of earning income online. When looking at other websites I noticed that many had Google ads on them. I put some ad blocks on my fledgling site and earned pretty much nothing. Five cents here, ten cents there, and by the end of the week maybe enough to buy a cup of coffee. It wasn't much, but I was intrigued.
Of course, I was avalanched with a mountain of information. There are millions of websites and blogs touting this internet marketing guru or that turn-key money-making system. Some of the information seemed valid. Much of it seemed like an outright scam. But which was which?
There are a lot of moving parts to an online business and it can all be a bit bewildering. If only there was someone who could help you make sense of it all and provide a simplified step-by-step action plan to help you get started, keep you on track, and see you through to success.
I spent a great deal of time and money signing up for courses that focused on fairly narrow topics like link building, generating traffic, pay-per-click advertising, auto-responders, etc. In the end all I had was disparate information that only really served to enrich the internet marketing gurus and scammers who sold these products. And there was always a hot, new, must-have, "what-they-don't-want-you-to-know" program or webinar coming out every week!
You could spend a hundred years and a million dollars and still not know how to tie it all together and understand the step-by-step process you need to start and develop a real, functional online business that provides real value to your site's visitors and customers.
I wanted to create an online business of lasting value with integrity—not just find a way to become another online rip-off artist.
At the time I even came across SBI! and I wanted to learn more about it and what other people thought of Solo Build It! (back then it was still known as Site Build It!).
I searched Google for terms like "SBI! review" or "Site Build It! scam" because I wanted to get real reviews (good or bad) on what was touted as an online business builder that sounded like it was exactly what I had been looking for all that time. But I had been burnt before.
The overwhelming number of reviews were positive. Some were less positive, but that is always going to happen no matter how good a product is. The ones that were negative mostly seemed to want to steer me to some other product that it was obvious they were selling and they had an ulterior motive to bad-mouth SBI!.
I hemmed and hawed for about nine months. Should I get Solo Build It!? It has great reviews. But what if it's just another scam? It seems on the up-and-up and they focus on helping you create an online business—and have the case studies, results, and proof to back up their claims. But are they cherry-picking their data? ...and on and on, and 'round and 'round I went.
Everything other than Solo Build It! seemed like pie-in-the-sky, get-rich-quick, internet marketing nonsense at it's worst. At best they had good ideas but the concepts weren't connected in a rational step-by-step approach that could get me from here to there... From nothing—to a thriving website that gets traffic, helps me build an online community, and allows me to earn an income doing what I love.
Solo Build It! seemed to have everything I was looking for. A step-by-step "action guide" to lead me through the minefield of starting an online business and a multitude of tools for site-building, researching in-demand niches and topics for articles, user-submitted pages (to interact with my visitors and help the site grow into a real community), and monetization ideas. They also handle a host of back-end technical stuff so I can focus my time on building my business instead of getting bogged down in technical details.
I watched the video tour which gave me an overview of how Solo Build It! works and I could see how all the pieces of the puzzle come together.
There is far more included with SBI! than I've mentioned above. You can find more information about all the tools that come included (not for an extra price they sting you with later) here. These tools go well beyond just building a website (anyone can do that). They are there to help you build a real online business with integrity.
Solo Build It! takes the confusing jumble of information about creating an online business and organizes it into simple, prioritized, actionable steps and provides the tools so you can make it happen.
As I mentioned, it took me about nine months of deciding whether or not I should trust Solo Build It! and take the plunge. Finally, it was time to take action. I figured I'd give it a solid shot for at least a year. Worst-case-scenario I would make more mistakes I could learn from... but maybe these guys at Solo Build It! are for real.
I signed up and haven't looked back since... and that was over 10 years ago. The only problems I've had with my site's success came when I ignored the advice provided by Solo Build It! My best recommendation is to take your time, absorb the information and guidance provided, and build your success story one step at a time—don't try to get ahead of yourself. Becoming impatient and cutting corners will hinder your progress.
Solo Build It! is not a get-rich-quick (GRQ) scheme. In fact, SBI! warns against GRQ and advises people to avoid the highly competitive niche of "internet marketing" (IM) which is rife with over-blown claims and outright scams. Too many people have been burned by parasites who lure people into buying questionable products or join marketing schemes that in the end only benefit those running the scam, shattering the dreams of people who were only regarded as sheep by the internet marketing wolves.
I can now be proud of what I've accomplished with Australian-Shepherd-Lovers.com. I get to spend my day building our community and serving my site's visitors—fellow lovers of the incredible Australian Shepherd breed!
It has taken a lot of hard work. This is where those who want easy money on the internet get separated from the solo entrepreneurs who want to create an online business that provides real value to it's visitors.
With all the guidance, support, and tools provided by Solo Build It! the path to success is simplified—but it still takes work. It helps you get a clear picture of the steps you need to take in order to move your dream forward. It keeps you on track and and provides you with the tools you need.
Let's start here with why I wrote this Solo Build It! review. This site is about Australian Shepherds—not building websites, or online businesses, or internet marketing, but it has come to my attention that online scammers are attempting to intercept people honestly searching for a way to also make their dreams a reality and are diverting them to what I consider disreputable companies peddling inferior products.
Don't be deceived by fake reviews that play on Solo Build It!'s good name and attempt to confuse and divert you to a much inferior product.
The problem is that most people who are misled into joining WA are encouraged to create more and more fake reviews. There are then thousands upon thousands of these reviews flooding the internet. WA members are then encouraged to comment on each other's pages saying how wonderful WA is. This creates even more misinformation while also adding to social media buzz boosting their ranking in search results ever higher.
This is why when a person searches for "SBI! Review" they find fake reviews instead. YOU think it's a review, but it's real purpose is to lead you to Wealthy Affiliate.
That's why I decided to write this Solo Build It! review. Those, like myself, who use and love SBI! are too busy building our online businesses, creating valuable content, and serving our website's visitors to write reviews. Our sites, for the most part, are about things that have nothing to do with internet marketing. They are about building decks, selling comic books, traveling to Anguilla, or... Australian Shepherds.
So What? Why Should I Care About Fake Solo Build It! Reviews?
The reason I am taking the time to write this review is because of the very real damage that misinformation can do. I would guess that people who are searching for terms like "Solo Build It! review" are getting close to making what could be a life-changing decision. They may be people just looking for a better way. A way to improve their lives, take control of their financial destiny, and maybe escape an abusive workplace like the one I was in.
Instead of getting the information they need to make an informed decision and get started with Solo Build It! they get diverted to something like WA, where they are used, chewed up, and spat out. After that they may be too disheartened with the experience to bother trying again. Instead of starting to build their dream and creating success with the tools available in SBI! they are lied to and cheated. That makes me angry!
That is why I have created this review—in the hopes that someone will read it and get an honest opinion from someone who actually uses Solo Build It! instead of falling for the misinformation spewed by the plague of internet locusts from WA and others like them.
A common thread among the fake reviews by Wealthy Affiliate members, and the like, is a pronounced lack of verifiable data to support their claims. When you are lying—facts are your enemy!
As with any such scheme, a few WA members will be successful at getting unwitting people to join them and those few are then lauded as "success stories" among the WA acolytes. There may even be a handful of WA sites that are not dedicated to the internet marketing niche that see some degree of success. But which sites? What are the domain names? How many of them succeed; and compared to what?!
With outfits like WA this information, and the data to prove it, is weak (to say the least). On the other hand, SiteSell has always gone to great lengths to share detailed information about the success of those who use Solo Build It!.
I don't want to go into all the details of the in-depth study conducted by SiteSell which compares their actual results to the questionable claims being made by WA—but the data is telling. Let's just say the truth is not WA's friend.
Solo Build It! sites are 33 times (33X) more likely to achieve "Outstanding to Excellent" levels of traffic than Wealthy Affiliate.
Solo Build It! sites are 10 times (10X) more likely to achieve "Medium" levels of traffic than Wealthy Affiliate.
87% of Wealthy Affiliate sites are "Invisible." This is the only category where Wealthy Affiliate "beats" SBI! (i.e., in the worst level of failure - "Invisible" - they get no detectable traffic).
What would you rather have? A Solo Build It! site that gives you 10x to 33x the level of traffic compared to a WA site OR a WA site that is effectively "invisible" as far as the internet is concerned.
I encourage you to take a closer look at the study data for the Wealthy Affiliate vs. Solo Build It! Review. The methodology to gather and interpret the data is clearly laid out and is transparent so anyone can go ahead and reproduce the information for verification themselves.
Wealthy Affiliate Review: Head-On vs Solo Build It!
Take down your so-called "review." If you didn't know before, you have to know now that it's just not based on facts. The study undertaken by SBI! is transparent and reproducible. You can check the data yourself!
Okay, enough about Wealthy Affiliate... I just wanted to make sure that if anyone has come across their fake reviews they had a chance to see the truth to counter-balance their claims.
Solo Build It Review: PART 5: What's So Great About SBI!?
This is supposed to be a Solo Build It! Review and I've spent half my time debunking Wealthy Affiliate fake reviews. Let's take a closer look at why SBI! does so much better than any of it's so-called "competitors" (including WA).
There are plenty of companies out there that can provide you with domain name registration and web hosting services. They are happy to start you off with a domain name that may, or may not, be appropriate for the success of your website—which most likely won't ever see any real traffic. Many have started to offer other services to help improve the dismal results most websites get, but you are pretty much left to sink or swim on your own.
Solo Build It!, on the other hand, is first and foremost a road map for solo entrepreneurs who want to develop an online business. That is a very different thing than slapping a website up on the internet. SBI!—right from day one—is there to help you step, by step, by step, from a concept, to a blueprint, to a thriving online business that provides the revenue you need to be able to supplement your income or make a living doing what you love.
With Solo Build It! the SiteSell team and other solopreneurs are always there to lend a hand to help you take the next step.
When starting a business most of us could use a bit of guidance along the way to avoid the pitfalls. Why reinvent the wheel and learn everything the hard way? That's where SiteSell is different from its so-called competitors. SiteSell is dedicated to helping you build a business and with Solo Build It! they provide you with the guidance and tools you need to get there. They don't want you to just build a website; they want you to build a successful business.
That's why I chose Solo Build It! and I'm very glad I did. I started this website as a labor of love hoping (and not really believing) that it could someday help me escape the full-time job-from-hell that I was trapped in.
I followed the advice laid out in the Action Guide. It was hard work, but I was motivated and I kept at it. Australian-Shepherd-Lovers.com began to take shape. I kept writing more content, added a forum, started a newsletter, created a directory for breeders, wrote an ebook, and created one of the best sites on the web for Australian Shepherd fans from around the world.
I knew it was only a matter of time before I could give up the job completely—and that's exactly what happened. I finally gave my two weeks notice. I now work on my online business full-time. No more commuting. No more bosses. I now have the freedom to work the hours I want. I have created my own financial "safety net" and I wouldn't trade this freedom and self-reliance for anything.
I've managed to achieve all this with Solo Build It!, but a word of advice if you decide to start an online business of your own. My progress was much slower than it needed to be. I made a lot of mistakes because I didn't really believe earning a real living online was possible (it is) and I didn't know if everything that SBI! was telling me was true (it was). Knowing what I know now, I recommend anyone who is just getting started to take the guidance provided by the pros at SiteSell to heart.
One thing you'll learn about SiteSell is that the people at the company, from it's founder, Ken Evoy, to the programmers, to the support team, and coaches are all rooting for your success because their focus is on helping people like us build online businesses. Helping solopreneurs succeed is what they are all about, and that is what separates them from the pack.

Working online is a huge bonus because you can work with me from your home or from your hotel if you are traveling.
I'm never late to your lesson and the quality of the internet is now so good that it feels like we're in person.
- Do you have a specific method ?
**I work with books that are certified by the french alliance ( they work with the same method ) , only difference is ... you don't have to go anywhere , you can stay at home and enjoy a relaxing way of learning and you are alone with me so you learn 5 to 6 times faster than anywhere else.
- How may hours do I need per week ?
** Depending on how fast you want to learn I recommend to start with 1 hour per week for a month to see if you like it and if you are motivated I think 4 hours per week ( 2 hours twice a week ) are ideal.
- Will I have homework ?
** Yes , your homework will depend on your motivation.
I never give too much and it's always related to what we are working on.
For example , the first lesson is the french alphabet , your homework will be to learn how to spell your name in french.
- What do you give your students to help them become fluent in 1 year?
Bonjour everyone , my name is Zach.
I was born and raised in Paris, France.
I graduated from "Jean-Monnet European High-school" in France where I specialized in English and French Literature.
I moved to the US six years ago and I have been teaching FRENCH for more than 10 years now.
Most people I've taught first came to me saying "French is so hard , I will never be able to speak it" or "When I try to speak french, french people answer me in english"
Bonjour à toutes et à tous ! Hi everyone !
I would highly recommend Zach! He is patient, supportive, and knowledgeable. He truly wants you to learn, while always keeping class fun. Zach will repeat pronunciations as needed until you have complete understanding. Not only does he teach the French language, but also French culture. Zach is encouraging yet provides a challenge for you to reach your goals for learning. He's always organized, on time, and shows interest in your progress. I have been learning with Zach for months and will continue taking his classes.
I cannot recommend Zach highly enough. He's extremely positive, encouraging and fun in his lessons. I started learning French with almost zero knowledge of the language. After only a few weeks, I already felt comfortable expressing myself in basic French conversation. He challenged me to stretch my abilities as a student and helped me create my own system(s) for understanding the structure of speaking - this philosophy helped me build a foundation that is self-sufficient, a basic understanding of how the language works so that I can experiment, speak, learn, grow beyond what we learn in class. If you're looking for a teacher that is fun to learn with and someone who will challenge you to truly learn the nuances of the language, Zach is your teacher. I still have much to learn, but I have full confidence in Zach as an instructor.
Zach makes the course challenging and fun. He keeps you busy the entire class time - making the time go by very quickly.
Very helpful and very nice.
Zach knows his stuff! Very personable, patient and thorough. A great instructor!
Zach is wonderful. He is very adaptable to my needs and goals. Very personable.
I have taken several lessons and his lessons to be comprehensive and creative.
He is very professional and has always adapted to my needs and level with much encouragement.
He suggested many interesting French materials to listen or watch outside the lesson to create a natural French language environment. I would definitely recommend Zach!
Excellent teacher! Zach is wonderful. He is very knowledgable, patient and intelligent. I just moved from China to America, so my English is not so good. However, Zach is so kind and patient to encourage me to study French. I really enjoyed my first French lesson with Zach! And I am looking forward to continuing my lessons.
Very good first lesson. Instructor is professional, helpful, and invested.
Only one session in but I'm already having fun and learning a lot!!
My first lesson - very good start, patient teacher.

Great start to learning French. It was fun and I'm excited to continue.
