How to Move to New York

There are always jobs in New York...even in the middle of an economic recession. People get paid more in New York City too! So when your boss treats you like shit and shakes his millionaire asshole head at you like you are stupid when you are really putting forth all you've got...moving to NY seems oh so nice!

You won't need a car in New York. No more being ripped off by mechanics. No more rednecks with dog testicles hanging from the back of their pickup trucks. New York is full of people who actually are doing something with their lives. Working hard. And I bet they know how to spell. Everyone has a hope and a dream in NY. Let's go!

1. You have got to read about New York. Learn the areas, how to get a job in New York, how to get an apartment in New York City...etc. You can look all over online at various blogs. But having a book packed full with info is best. I got the red one below at home along with a map of Manhattan. Make sure the map also has a subway map too.



2. Plan an escape! Some books even give tips on the actual moving. The best ways to move. I would prefer Greyhound if I didn't have a dog. If you have small pets you may have to drive yourself or go by plane. Planes will not fly pets in the summer or winter. Pick a place to live. Research it too!





3. Visit New York first. You need to get to know the area. This will help you find an apartment faster etc. Again, a book about moving to New York and a map will help with the visit that will help you with the move!

Want a Successful Business?

(Oragami art by Won Park)

Try being simple and minimal. Look at Twitter.com its one of the most successful website in the history of the World Wide Web. Youtube.com is still relatively simple and easy to understand. Facebook.com and Myspace.com on the other hand has made several "improvements" but it has gotten more complicated. And once you make a website more complex by adding features, you can't take them away.

I deleted both of my Myspaces this morning to try and make a new one but it is extremely complicated. I may just say goodbye to Myspace for good.

I think the same rule goes for everything else. The best cars are simple cars. Not too many features. Just because its simple doesn't mean its cheaply made either. Best books are simple and to the point. best clothes are simple. No one wants something with several layers, belts, straps or buttons. Just put it on and go.

Too many features can scared off customers. Too many rules in a contest will scared off people. Too many words in a contract will scared off buyers.

Too many ingredients in a food or too many items on a sandwich.

Simple simple simple.

Too many options can be a bad thing. Kinda like too many bills.

People want simple. One easy payment...no hidden fees.

How to make life more enjoyable

Real heirs and heiresses have a very enjoyable life. We can't take away some of the things that make life a pain...like greiving, job stress, bills, etc. But we can always add some things to make us enjoy life a little more.

Things you should try that will make your life more enjoyable:

1. Sweatpants. Yes! I had to buy some a few weeks ago for a treadmill stress test. I put them on and they were so soft. I remember in college I wore hoodies but I never tried the sweatpants. These are the ones with the drawstrings so they always fit. And you can wear them around the house or out when you run errands. Then I read Paris Hiltons book "Confessions of an Heiress" and she also writes about how comfortable sweatpants are. You gotta try them really.

2. Keeping a journal. Remember I said it helps to count your blessings. Every morning I find myself grumbling to work. But I need to think of the good things. Keeping a journal makes you write down those good things. I understand keeping track of the bad things...you gotta get through em. But keep getting excited about the good things. List them...everyday. Like mine today would be: nice weather, there is nothing wrong with my tires, I don't have to pay any bills until payday, the recession is over, I am on lunch break now, I showed my readers my silly Youtube page, I have a nice purse, etc. I could go on and on. You should too!

3. Fruit flavored tea. Its healthy and its fruit flavored. Its not like the usually tea flavor. Remember to add honey or it won't taste right. Its like a little healthy treat. Boil the water, put the tea bag in the mug, pour the hot water in the mug, pull the tea bag in and out of the water...up and down for about a minute, throw tea bag away, squirt some honey in the mug, stir so the honey dissolves, then add some cold water and I put it in the fridge to chill. And I drink it later.

4. Keep track of the funny things that happen to you. Just little funny stories. Like I was looking for a picture of Paris Hilton to put on my Myspace.com and he walked into my office and the computer froze. Now he thinks I like girls. HA! Paris always gets me in trouble.

How to be happier

Not how to be happy. Just happier. Positive thinking. But what does that mean? Here is a method. Try counting your blessings. We always pay attention to the crap in life. Like going to work, paying bills, getting sick, and so many other problems. When Paris Hilton tweets about how she is loving life....she is focusing on the good. She isn't gonna tell you that bad things that happen in her life unless its funny like her phone breaking.

So try focusing on the good. Like today I have to go to the doctors again and I have a lot of work and I just want to go home. But I need to think about how I got a free meal from Arbys because of an advertising promotion we are doing, and my "club sandwiches not seals" hoodie came in the mail, and its raining (I love the rain).

Its like I said before...changing that orphan mentality to an heiress mentality.

An orphan would say..."I'm tired...I want to go home."

An heiress/heir would say "ITS FRIDAY! And I get to sleep in tomorrow"

Here is some good news. I am still gonna post that Mother's Day chat on here. And you guys can still follow me on twitter since I don't have internet at home. So there's some nice things to think about. I got some other neato stuff too.



And if you want to find out where you can get a "club sandwiches not seals" hoodie. Here is a link: club sandwiches not seals hoodie. Make sure to get the right size. Mine is a small.
