Rand/US Dollar Exchange Rate

Rand/US Dollar Exchange Rate


Since September 2011 the Rand/Dollar exchange rate has been increasing. In December 2011 it stabilized at around R8 to 1 USD. In all this time Be Motivated Today members, paying in Rands, have paid a consistent R70 for their monthly subscriptions. As the exchange rate has now been stable at around R7.60 to 1 USD we believe it is time to adjust our deductions accordingly.


From 27 March we will be using an exchange rate of R7.60 to 1 USD. The fact that we have kept the exchange rate at R7 for the last 7 months means that Silver Members, paying in Rands, have saved +- R55 in this time. We have been gracious to our members during this time and believe that the increase is in no way unrealistic or unfair


Don't wait for others to work on your challenges. They won't. They couldn't care less. OK, not fair, I know. Some may really care. But the person who cares the most, is you.
Do something. Don't let one more day go by without taking control and working towards a solution to your frustration. You can. You have the potential. You are not destined for frustration, but for success

Find solutions. Chat to a friend, go to the library or google it. Do what you need to do. But find some solutions.

Then plan for the change you want. And start working on it. You will probably face obstacles. But don't accept defeat. You can improve any situation

I am amazed at how few people have written goals and plans for their life. I should not be surprised, because up until a few years ago, although I had goals, I did not have the plans for my goals. Now that I have some detailed plans, things are humming. I'm more motivated, energised and enthusiastic than ever before.

Just set 1 or 2 really exciting goals, things that really get you moving and are in line with your purpose. Work out detailed plans and then follow the basics of hard work, perseverance and self-belief. Watch what happens. Before you know it you will be making some great headway towards your goals

Here is a short video clip taken from one of my motivational talks on persevering. It will motivate you to keep going.

Ever noticed how things don't always work out the way you would like them too?
That's life. We all know it, but often forget it.


The challenges we face can sometimes get us down and depressed. That is normal too. No one is motivated and on top all the time.


We all have days where we want to quit. That is OK. Sometimes the disappointments and challenges of work or a business can cause that to happen.


But the difference between success and failure, is that successful people DO NOT QUIT. They know that they just need to hang in there. In a few days things will be different. New motivation will come.


You are a successful person. You face your challenges and have a different perspective. You see the big picture. You see yourself a year from now, having reached your goals. You know that whenever anything is worth it, there will be challenges and you just need to keep working at it.
Whatever you face right now, just keep working at it. The success will come.
