Goooood Morning!

Especially lazy today. My get up and go got up and went…

That last phrase i just used reminded me of a recent guru lesson from some biz book: “Don’t use cliches.”

And why not? As the cookie crumbles, so does the cliche ridden landscape of my bloggistic dreams.

~~~

Have closed my twitter, delicio, buzz, health blog etcet and will head out into the day. Will brush the yatzees, pearl it up and head to coffeeville.

Oh life is good - thanks to free trade farmer in South America. And… those ever wicked oil companies that fire the fuel that brought my coffee to me.

Today’s Lessons:

“Keep on truckin no matter how u FEEEL.”

“Don’t use Cliches.”

Bullpuckies. Cliches are every nonthinkers last resort to bottm out his desperate little bag of literary tricks. I should know.

More Money More Stress

I always wondered why money didn’t motivate me. Seems i lack the money gene. Think I found my answer in the video below. He explains how offering employees more money doesn’t necessarily lead to better performance.

Thing is… using money to induce or seduce can inflict more stress than impetus, more control issues, more under the gun stuff. Making more money can imply more stress.

Rich men get their rockies off making money. It’s a shot to their arm, a festive celebration every time a dollar comes in. So you can see how they are able to “magnetize” money. I magnetize ice cream the same way. Love the stuff.

Lesson: Give yourself a piece of your favorite food treat every time you put money in the bank. Pretty soon you’ll be stashing that cash like a crazy (wo)man.

Or, just get addicted to the stuff. Money that is.

Advice from a Newbie to a Super Newbie

Starting Over from Scratch… if i could start over again working on the Web, this is what I’d do instead of what I did: (Disclaimer: Will be Revised in 3 Months No Doubt)

  • focus on a product 
  • realize I need to finish this project even if I tire of it
  • create valuable content related to the product 
  • list benefits, bullet points, good sales content
  • follow the best advice gleaned from multitudes of true gurus these last 9 months 
  • create a (valuable and worthy) membership site using autoresponders yielding residual income

Then I would do something else that interests me. Something new and fun and exciting. 

In fact, i have the best cleaning product in the world. And it’s the safest. Do I promote it? No. Why? I’m an idiot.

~•♥•~

GURUS

The gurus DO have info that works. For THEM. They LOVE what they do and therefore are good at it.

One guru drools when his mailing list increases. It’s his joy. No wonder he’s super rich… he truly does what he loves - marketing and sales.

If that’s your gig, lucky you - take any of the gurus advice and you’ll fly. 

…… if you figure out YOUR nature, apply YOUR natural gifts and write up a storm that offers others TRUE value, you’ll fly high. 

Correct me if I’m wrong, but we’re best at what we love. Maybe because it’s just <i>easier.</i>

COMPLEXITY

I’ve discovered that complexity isn’t necessary. If you can do simple, you can always go complex later. True gurus succeed at the simple and then do complex just for what - i don’t know.  

~•♥•~

INFINITE POSSIBILITIES

The more i think about this, the more lost I get in the infinite possibilities.

I have come to realize that there are MANY paths to success… all of them work.

But in the end, it’s basically having a good product, providing honest forthright and well written benefits and information to your audience, and asking them for the sale. 

The trick is being ABLE to be true to your nature while creating income. 

As for me and why I don’t have BIG success yet - I’m a wierd one who throws checks in the corner, neglects to debit my clients, and never finishes a project I start with blazing energy, just to fizzle out.

My very nature is antithetical to money - money doesn’t interest me. Terrible. My family tells me if I keep this up, I’m bound for the streets.

It’s my potential nemesis up to this point… but changes are afoot…

~•♥•~

DREAMS

If I had such dreams, drive and ability to focus as yours, the world would be my oyster. Well maybe not. After all i’m me and you’re you.

Finally…

the more you give, the more you get.

Life can be amazing that way.

: )

I wish you all the success in the world.
