When things in your lives seem almost too much to handle, when 24 hours in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and the 2 cups of coffee.

A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, he wordlessly picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was.

The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.

The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with an unanimous “yes.”

The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar effectively filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed.

“Now,” said the professor as the laughter subsided, “I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The golf balls are the important things–your family, your children, your health, your friends and your favorite passions–and if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full.

The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house and your car.

The sand is everything else–the small stuff. “If you put the sand into the jar first,” he continued, “there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff you will never have room for the things that are important to you.

“Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness. Play with your children. Take time to get medical checkups. Take your spouse out to dinner. Play another 18. There will always be time to clean the house and fix the disposal. Take care of the golf balls first–the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.”

One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee represented. The professor smiled. “I’m glad you asked.

It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem, there’s always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend.”

After reading the title the first question that may come to your mind is: what exactly is social bookmarking?

Social bookmarking refers to the process of saving bookmarks to a web site or web page and tagging them to social bookmarking sites. These sites are popular and convenient ways to store your favourite sites. You can also share your link with friends and send them to search engines. Other users can also easily find your web site via tags on these social bookmarking sites.

These sites are usually free – you can submit your site and can share your links to the others for free. Normally in these social bookmarking sites you can save your link publicly but you have the option of saving these links privately.

You have to be aware that some sites are NoFollow while others are DoFollow. Of course, it’s better if you submit your site to the DoFollow social bookmarking sites. So that your bookmark may be crawled quickly by the major search engine. Submitting to NoFollow social bookmarking sites means not that they don’t have any value. However, the NoFollow sites might increase your your site’s Yahoo backlink score.

So the more votes you get for your bookmark, the more valuable it becomes. Thus, Social bookmarking gives a resource credibility.

Joining a make money affiliate marketing program can prove to be beneficial if you want to earn money using the Internet. The popularity of affiliate marketing has risen with the steady increase in online marketing. Sometimes, websites are created for the purpose of affiliate marketing only. However, you can very well create a blog and use it for the same. Make your blog a lucrative medium for earning dollars through affiliate marketing by extending it beyond a space for publishing personal posts.

Affiliate marketing can be of 3 types. It is important to have a clear understanding of each type before a blog is created for this purpose. The 3 types of affiliate marketing are:

1.) Pay-per-click affiliate marketing – In this case, you will be paid by an merchant company/advertiser if the ad or link displayed on your blog is clicked by a visitor. Just a click on the ad or link will earn money for you. It is the easiest money earning medium, out of the 3 types of affiliate marketing.

2.) Pay-per-lead affiliate marketing – This type involves payment based on leads. A lead can be of many types such as filling out a form for receiving newsletters, downloading software, providing information about oneself and one’s contact details etc. All of this is done on the advertiser’s website. If your blog acts as a medium in making this possible, you will get paid by the advertisers.

3.) Pay-per-sale affiliate marketing – As the term implies, payment is based on sales made by the advertiser. If using your blog, a visitor goes to the advertiser’s website and buys a product or service, the advertiser will pay you.

Chances of earning from a make money affiliate marketing program depend on your ability to promote and popularize the products and services of the company you are working for. The following steps can prove to be helpful:

a.) Chatting - You can chat with people through blog comments/posts to build network. Your aim will be to convince your viewers about a product or service. Also, through chatting, you can answer their questions if they have any query regarding anything.

b.) Using images – In order to attract visitors to the advertiser’s website, use appealing pictures of their products or services on your blog.

c.) Selecting proper keywords – Perhaps this is the most important requirement for popularizing your blog and thus making money. You need to have a good knowledge about keywords. You can learn about this on the Internet. Use keywords which are popular and which increases the visibility of your blog on search engines. Not only it will attract more advertisers, but also it will increase the chances of getting paid by the merchant companies.

Whether you need money or just want to earn some extra dollars, joining a make money affiliate marketing program can prove to be beneficial. Using your blog for this purpose makes it all the more easy.
