Got no dough for a commercial WiFi antenna? Looking for an inexpensive way to increase the range of your wireless network? A tin can waveguide antenna, or Cantenna, may be just the ticket. This design can be built for under $5 U.S. and reuses a food, juice, or other tin can.

I am not an electrical engineer, nor do I have access to any fancy test equipment. I've built some antennas that worked for me and thought I would share what I learned. I have no idea if this is safe for your radio or wireless network equipment. The risk to you and your equipment is yours.

Building your Cantenna is easy, just follow these steps.

Seven Success Principles for The Success

Sabtu, 22 Agustus 2009

You will become more successful in your life if you practice the following success principles:

1. Get clarity about what you really want in life.

Heard of the saying "Aim at nothing and you get nothing"? That is the reason why most people do not experience success. They do not know what they want in their lives.

You need to find out your passion, what makes you tick, what is important to you, what is your life purpose. This will lay the foundation for success in whatever you want to do in your life.

2. Focus on what you want.

Once you get clarity about what you want, you need to focus daily on what you want. Look at your goals a few times daily. This will serve as a reminder and a compass, directing your life in the direction you have set to go.

3. Think positive.

Always have a positive mindset. There are always two ways to look at a situation. Choose to look at the good side of everything that happens to you .If something bad happens, don't let that set you back. Instead, ask yourself: what can I learn from this? I guarantee you will be happier and more successful when you do this.

4. Don't be afraid to try new things.

The saying "if you keep doing what you always do, you will always get the same results" is so true. If you don't like the results in your life now, you need to try new things: make changes. Take more risks. Get out of your comfort zone and do something different.

5. Be persistent.
Have you noticed that most things that work require time and effort? Unfortunately, we live in an instant world of fast foods and instant noodles and expect things just to "happen" without applying much effort. I believe that you cannot achieve real success without working hard at things and being persistent. According to Thomas Edison, "Genius is 1 percent inspiriation and 99 percent perspiration."

6. Be forward thinking.
Always think a step ahead of what you do. Look at the big picture and have a plan for what you do. Set goals and when you have achieved your goals, reward yourself and then set yourself new goals.

7. Take things a day at a time.

No matter how difficult your situation is, you can get through it if you don't look too far into the future and focus on the present moment. You can get through anything one day at a time.

These are principles that are practiced by successful people and will help you achieve more wealth, happiness and success.
