As I have just launched my first ebook called I want to give you some tips to help you overcome some of the obstacles that I faced trying to write my first ebook. This is the best time to write a post on how to write an ebook since the process is still fresh in my head.

This is the best place to start because knowing the purpose of your ebook will make the rest of the process easy. Are you writing an ebook to sell and make money? Or are you writing an ebook to drive traffic to your website and growth to your Twitter account or email subscription list? If you are writing an ebook to give away it has to be longer than a free ebook and it has to have an immense amount of value packed in it. 

Most high-end ebooks that cost around $97 dollars or more come with works sheets, videos, and a slew of other supporting assets that add a great deal of value. I would suggest you give away your first ebook to build trust and a relationship with your readers. I used mine to build my Twitter list. I will also create an ebook to build my email list which will be free as well. 

Then once I have a solid email list and build a strong relationship with my readers, then and only then will I launch a paid ebook. This way I have developed a pool of readers who value my advice and don’t mind paying for one or two of my valuable products.

Your ebook does not have to belong. My first ebook was 47 pages but you can also write 10-20 pages if you are creating a free ebook. Figuring out number 1 above will help you figure out the length of your ebook.

Don’t worry if other people have already written an ebook in your niche, just write it from your perspective and from your experience. Also, you have more content than you think. 

Don’t be afraid to revise and use some of your old posts in the ebook. Just because it is on your website does not mean all of your readers have read it. Also as time passes some of your best blogs get pushed deep into the archives. An ebook is a great way to republish your amazing work. 

Make sure your ebook title is catchy and something that compels your readers to want to download or buy it. It should also describe exactly what your ebook is about.

Your ebook won’t write itself. You have to set up a daily schedule to get a little of it done every day. Once you have your schedule set the world will try and get in the way of you getting this ebook done. You must stick to your plan and just write it.

How to write an eBook: 5 important tips

Nothing warms a dreary day like a hot cup of comforting tea, cocoa, or soup. These foods not only soothe your body and soul, but they also give health benefits. Many hands are warmed over a cup of tea. Tea has been promoted for its possible health benefits, especially for preventing heart disease. Many researchers discovered that tea drinkers usually had lower blood pressure than those who did not sip tea. Furthermore, there appeared to be more benefits to drinking less tea. In this observational study, those who drank less (one-half a cup to two and a half cups a day) had a 46 percent lower chance of developing high blood pressure. Many health experts know that weight gain often makes high blood pressure worse. Recently there have been reports that drinking tea may affect metabolism and weight loss; however, the studies are suggestive but not conclusive.

Many people admit to loving chocolate but for several years chocolate has been considered an indulgence. Today, the news is different and there are health benefits from drinking cocoa. To begin with, any beverage that you make with fat-free milk will provide bone-building calcium. Add the cocoa and the list of health benefits grows. The positive health benefits of cocoa are polyphenol flavonoids, such as epicatechin. Dark chocolate offers the most polyphenol content. The cocoa flavonoids have been shown in studies to act as platelet inhibitors and it is hypothesized that they may also offer anti-inflammatory effects but there still is little evidence that chocolate and other cocoa consumption may help prevent cancer. Both tea and cocoa are plant-based foods; however, they still will not act as substitutes for fresh vegetables and fruit! 

From healthwise to decadent, soup can boost your nutrition. Recently, a study found that regular consumption of soups rich in antioxidants boosts vitamin C levels and reduces some stress molecules. Selecting a broth-based soup is the healthiest option since traditional cream soups and bisques may provide up to 20 grams of fat in just one cup. However, healthier versions can be made with non-fat milk, non-fat half-and-half, and olive oil instead of butter.

Soups are quick and easy to prepare and lend themselves to sneaking in leftover vegetables, protein, and grains. Just about anything can be added to soups when you start exploring exotic cuisines. Use your imagination and basic herbs and this culinary creation can be savored one day and frozen for future use a few weeks later. For a memorable homemade soup, you simply need to decide on the ingredient combinations that your family will enjoy. It is as simple as a stock [broth], vegetables, and protein source [chicken, fish, meat substitute, or meat]. Add some spices, whole grain bread, and a green salad, and enjoy!

Healthful winter warm-ups

The most abundant mineral in the body, calcium is best known for maintaining strong bones. It also supports the normal cardiovascular and muscular function. But now there is evidence that calcium may also improve weight control and even lower the risk of some cancers. Considering that only 1/3 of Americans meet their daily needs for calcium (1,000 mg for adults through age 50, and 1,200 mg for older adults), most people are not enjoying the full health benefits offered by this common mineral.
 
A recent report in the Journal of the American College of Nutrition showed that people who had less calcium in their diets were more likely to gain weight. In fact, every 300 milligrams of calcium (about a glass of milk) per day for adults was associated with about six pounds lower weight. So avoiding dairy products in an effort to lose weight may be counterproductive.
 
Research suggests that greater dietary calcium makes cells less likely to store fat and more likely to burn fat when calorie intake is reduced. It appears that too little calcium in the diet leads to decreased fat-burning in the cells and increased fat storage. Recommendations are for 1,000 to 1,500 mg of calcium intake daily, which is what we get in a balanced diet that includes three servings of dairy products or calcium-fortified foods a day. There was no benefit from further increasing the calcium intake beyond these recommended levels.
 
Some studies also suggest that calcium might also lower the risk of cancer. The strongest link is between colon cancer and calcium consumption. The Journal of the National Cancer Institute reports that people with higher calcium diets developed 35 percent fewer of some types of colon cancer than people with lower calcium consumption. It appears that increased calcium consumption causes the cells that line the colon to change into lower-risk cell types.
 
In another study, pre-menopausal women with higher calcium consumption developed about 30 percent less breast cancer than those who consumed very little. The effect was not observed in post-menopausal women. Other studies suggest that calcium may offer some protection against ovarian cancer. Further research is needed to confirm these links. As with weight control, there appears to be no additional cancer protection benefit from consuming greater amounts of calcium that are currently recommended in a balanced diet.

Fresh cranberries are appearing in the produce section so why not learn all the health benefits of these wonderful health-promoting fruits? Most people are aware that cranberries may help prevent urinary tract infection. Research shows that the cranberry’s bacteria blocking properties help prevent E. coli bacteria from attaching to the bladder wall and causing infection. 

In fact, distinctive substances in cranberries, called tannins, help prevent certain bacteria from attaching to cells and causing infection. According to the research drinking 10 ounces of cranberry juice cocktail or eating just 1 ounce of dried cranberries daily is what it takes to achieve cranberry’s bacteria blocking benefits. Another health benefit is the ability of the cranberry to prevent the development of certain ulcers and gum disease. Remember to include more cranberries in your meal plans.
 
 Health Benefits
 
Heart disease is the number one killer and perhaps that is reason enough to eat more cranberries. Studies have shown that diets rich in flavonoids, which are found in fruits and vegetables, can help reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, including heart disease and stroke. 

Many people do not realize that cranberries are one of the richest fruit sources of heart-healthy flavonoids. These same flavonoids can also help reduce the risk of certain cancers. Remember that cranberries are great to eat all year round, not just at Thanksgiving. Dried cranberries are easy to incorporate into the family’s meals, especially in your evening green salad.
 
When you shop this season stock up on fresh cranberries. I always keep several bags of cranberries frozen for use in baking throughout the year. Frozen cranberries can be added to any muffin or quick bread batters for extra flavor pizzazz and nutrition. You can also add dried cranberries in place of the traditional raisins to salads or trail mix.

Holidays, family celebrations, and social events are joyous times, but these special occasions usually are centered around huge quantities of tempting, high-calorie foods. But do you have to give up holidays and special events and become a hermit? You can enjoy the celebrations without gaining weight with some preplanning strategies. 
 
Many people still believe that they gain at least 5 pounds during the holidays. However, a new study suggests that Americans gain only about one pound during the winter holiday season. So, there is no need to face holiday feasts with the "all or none" principle. Just a few simple changes in food choices along with regular exercise can help keep off unwanted pounds.
 
Break the Cycle of Holiday Weight Gain
 
The holidays always seem to bring on overeating. The foods that are available not only taste good but are also everywhere you turn. Add the stress of a house full of guests, last-minute shopping, and or travel, and food often seems like the only solace. 
 
If you want to survive the holidays, begin by preparing what and when you will eat holiday goodies. One way to sabotage your healthy eating plan is to go on a holiday or social event hungry. The impulse will then be to nibble on high-calorie foods like fried appetizers and delicious cookies and candy. At any holiday gatherings, everyone needs to be especially cautious of these high-calorie pitfalls. Nibbling on nuts, cheeses, and candies can add quick calories. And, large portions and second servings during a meal not only add extra calories, fat, and cholesterol but also leave you too full to take a post-meal walk. 
 
Celebration Strategies
 

• Plan ahead: Write a strategy of what you will be eating during any holiday season, including portion sizes and calories. Remember to be realistic. You are not going to enjoy a dinner salad when everyone else is eating roast beast with all the trimmings.

• Eat 4 or 6 small meals, instead of one large meal: Because most holiday meals are served as "dinner", plan to eat small frequent meals.

• Reduce the fat and calories in meals. Use reduced-fat and calorie ingredients. Also, remember to eat a true portion size and increase fiber-filled ingredients, like fruits and vegetables.

• Focus on other activities: Instead of making dinner the main event, try emphasizing games, singing, an expedition, or conversation.

• Exercise regularly: Plan regular daily exercise even through the holidays. You can always plan on taking a walk with family or friends after dinner.
