Achieve Truly Spectacular Success! Be An Internet Marketing Cockroach!
As human beings and Internet marketers, we can learn some important life and business lessons from nature's creatures. Imparticularly, the cockroach.
Without question, cockroaches are truly one of nature's most amazing and enduring creatures. How amazing? Read on.
Cockroaches are thought to have originated 0ver 280 million years ago (during the Carboniferous era).
The world's largest roach (which lives in South America) is six inches long with a one-foot wingspan.
Cockroaches bleed white blood.
Cockroaches have 6 hairy legs. The tiny hairs found on each leg gives them their sense of touch.
Cockroaches can hold their breath for up to 40 minutes and spend about 75 percent of the time just resting. There are an estimated 5,000 species of cockroaches worldwide.
Some female cockroaches mate once and are pregnant for the rest of their lives.
You've no doubt heard the legend of the headless cockroach. Well, in this case, the legend also happens to be fact. A cockroach can live a week without its head. The roach only dies because without a mouth, it can't drink water and dies of thirst.
Cockroaches can run up to three miles in an hour.
Young cockroaches need only a crack as thin as a dime (about .5mm wide) to crawl into. Adult males can squeeze into a space of 1.6mm or the thickness of a quarter. Pregnant females need the most space to hide: 4.5mm or a space as tall as two stacked nickels.
A cockroach's heart is nothing but a simple tube with valves. The tube can pump blood backwards and forwards in the insect. The heart can even stop moving without harming the roach.
Roaches can live without food for a month, but will only
survive a week without water.
Roaches will eat just about anything--including finger nail clippings, bread crumbs, food scraps off of dirty dishes-- even labels on cans, including the glue.
Most species of roaches live in the tropics. But roaches live all over the world, including the North and South Poles. Pest cockroachs can withstand temperatures as cold as 32°F (0°C), but will die if the temperature goes much below that. In extremely cold places, however, they survive by moving in with humans.
Cockroaches can climb walls because they are equipped with a set of little claws on their feet designed for that very purpose.
Crushed cockroaches can be applied to a stinging wound to help relieve the pain.
Roaches use their feelers, or antennae as noses. Their sense of smell is so great, they recognize family and friends by their distinctive odors.
Female roaches attract male roaches by producing pheromones. Pheromones are chemicals that attract male roaches like a magnet and drives them wild.
Those are some pretty amazing facts, aren't they?
So, what's the point of this article? Simple. If you want to achieve truly spectacular success, be an Internet marketing cockroach! That means, take full advantage of your environment and opportunities, be remarkably adaptable and don't let anything stand in the way of achieving your goals!
Those are truly valuable traits that can be applied to both our personal and business lives!
