			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>This is a TRUE story…</strong></p>
<p>Only the name has been changed to protect the identity of the person involved.</p>
<p>Let’s call the individual… <strong>“Mike.”</strong></p>
<p>I think there is a really important <strong>LIFE LESSON</strong> here so I am going to reproduce <strong>EXACTLY</strong> what was said between me and Mike. Here is what happened so you know how this came about…</p>
<p>I sent some information to my list of subscribers and received several pretty nasty unsubscribe email messages. This was one of them…</p>
<p><strong>From Mike:</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;You have sent me pure junk since I signed up, I am not stupid and dont wish for you to attempt to make money off of me, greed is a sin.</p>
<p>If you want to help me then mentor me for free and help me earn an income, but I can safely assume that would be too much trouble and not the greatest of investments hey?&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>My reply:</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>Mike,</p>
<p>Your comment would have to be one of the most ill-informed and disingenuous<br />
emails I have received for quite some time.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s take a look at a few things:</p>
<p><strong>1</strong> &#8211; You signed up for my <strong>Time in Motion ACTION Planner</strong>. That was <strong>FREE</strong>. Have you ever used it? Have you even read it?<br />
<strong>2</strong> &#8211; I have a MASSIVE amount of information freely available on my blog. It covers so many aspects of Internet Marketing. Have you looked at any of that?<br />
<strong>3</strong> &#8211; Also available on my blog &#8211; <strong>completely FREE</strong> are:</p>
<p><strong>*</strong> The Perfect Storm &#8211; a writing manual<br />
<strong>*</strong> Adswaps manual<br />
<strong>*</strong> Copywriting manual<br />
<strong>*</strong> Mindset manual <--- maybe you would benefit from that<br />
<strong>*</strong> Twitter manual<br />
<strong>*</strong> Power of Choice</p>
<p>And a bunch of other stuff &#8211; <strong>ALL FREE</strong>!</p>
<p>You say &#8220;PURE JUNK&#8221; &#8211; what, in <strong>YOUR opinion</strong> is PURE JUNK? Please tell me.</p>
<p>Also, <strong>HOW</strong> am I attempting to make money off you?</p>
<p>Mentor you for free huh? What ELSE would you require for free? Should I buy you a domain name, a website, build you a blog, buy you an autoresponder? You see Mike this all points to one thing &#8211; your rudeness and anger <strong>clouds your mindset</strong>. </p>
<p>I&#8217;m actually glad you have unsubscribed because with an attitude like yours you just don&#8217;t have what it takes to be successful right now. Waken up to yourself and stop thinking that everybody owes you something. And get out of your mind that everybody wants to take money off you. The only thing you have in your wallet is moths anyway because it&#8217;s VERY obvious that you wouldn&#8217;t pay anything to improve or educate yourself.</p>
<p><strong>You cant expect help from people by being rude and abusive.</strong></p>
<p>Have a great Easter and think about why you find yourself in this negative mindset because it is stopping you dead in your tracks. That little piece of advice is FREE too Mike.</p>
<p>Regards</p>
<p>Gary</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>Mike’s Reply:</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>Gary,</p>
<p>I have no shame to admit that you did accurately guess a few things right, I am a<br />
man of honesty and can openly admit this. </p>
<p>1. I never actually received this book, but I can assure you that I have read hundreds of others.<br />
2. Information is great. I can find information everywhere I look and even when I try to meditate.<br />
3. Adsense costs money, A domain cost money, Twitter is useless if you dont have a website to promote, Choices can be limited, I dont choose to sit in for 5 days at a time, I have no choice I am too broke to leave.</p>
<p>I am angry, I am angry towards myself and God for putting me in this hell hole. I am angry because I keep loosing my job, I am angry that I cant leave my house, I am angry because I dont have no friends and by the looks of thing no future, I am angry that I have been suffering with migraines for 8 years now and cant find a cure, I am also angry that I am fighting a spiritual battle in mind that is making me feel suicidal, I want to change my life so much, but because of a peice of paper everytime I try to attempt to build something of value I cant do nothing with it.</p>
<p>Some of the most profound self help books I paid nothing for, and actually in all honesty its how I choose what to read. If someone is giving away a free book their intent is clear. </p>
<p>I dont sit around and do nothing, I have wrote 80 pages of a guide to help people also, but what the heck shall I do with it. I have no means of promoting it, forget all these free websites they are useless, the book is not great but when you have a thumping headache/pain in your head from the time you wake up to the time you go bed, then your creativity is kind of drained. </p>
<p>I will move into my positive mind and I hope soon, and when I do my life will change, but right now my negative mind is killing me. I have alot to do on this planet, and will succeed regardless of how weak and desperate I feel. </p>
<p>I am bankrupt at 23 and cant even afford to pay bankruptcy fees, I owe court money and have a distress warrant out for not being able to afford them, you try staying positive!</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>My reply:</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>Mike,</p>
<p>To be honest &#8211; I didn&#8217;t expect a reply from you. So, I give you credit for that.</p>
<p>None of what I said in my reply to you was what you call <strong>&#8220;an accurate guess&#8221;</strong> Mike. It sticks out like the proverbial Pit Bull&#8217;s OO&#8217;s.</p>
<p>Yes, from what you say below, you are going through stress. <strong>You are being challenged to see what you are made of.</strong> I have been through these times myself.</p>
<p>Lashing out at people is only gonna make things even worse for you.</p>
<p>Not EVERYBODY wants to take your money. But you have to pay your way in this world. Your bankruptcy is a result of poor decisions that you made and maybe some bad luck along the way as well.</p>
<p>Have you been to a doctor for this migraine? <strong>Try this:</strong> Figure out what side of your head the most pain is on. Left or right. Then take your opposite foot and press around the ball of your big toe until you find a spot that is REALLY painful. Press on that point with the tips of your fingers or thumb at the same rate as your heartbeat. Do that for 3-4 minutes. It&#8217;s even better if you can get somebody else to do it for you. It&#8217;s called shiatsu and it does work. I have helped dozens of people using this technique over the years but here is what I find &#8211; <strong>the ones who refuse to believe it cannot be helped</strong>. They say it&#8217;s all bullshit and they put up with their headache. Those who refuse to endure a couple of minutes of pain also put up with their headache. <strong>Their CHOICE!</strong></p>
<p>Those who take the bit between their teeth and work through the TEMPORARY pain are the ones who get rid of their migraines.</p>
<p>You may also be allergic to food substances and additives. <strong>Try this:</strong> Write down EVERYTHING you eat and drink over the next week and record when you have the headache. Compare your food and drink intake with how you feel. I can tell you from experiences of my own that chocolate, tomatoes and cucumber are migraine foods for many people. It can also be the comination of food.</p>
<p>Mike, I want you to look very carefully at these two sentences you wrote:</p>
<p><em>&#8220;I am angry, I am angry towards myself and God for putting me in this hell hole. I am angry because I keep loosing my job, I am angry that I cant leave my house, I am angry because I dont have no friends and by the looks of thing no future.&#8221;</em></p>
<p>See the KEY word there? <strong>&#8220;ANGRY.&#8221;</strong> Yes, you are angry. And that is precisely why you keep losing your job. WHO in their right mind wants a perpetually angry person around them? Tell me that! What friends are you gonna attract when you are always angry? Gang-banger types, that&#8217;s who. Other ANGRY losers.</p>
<p>You will attract what you give out. And that is what you are &#8220;offering&#8221; the world at the moment Mike &#8211; anger. And I can tell you this too. All it will do is cause you MORE pain.</p>
<p>Being angry at God is a futile and senseless way to be Mike. <strong>He is TESTING you mate</strong> and you are proving to Him that you are unworthy of His help.</p>
<p>Learn to be more calm and reasonable.</p>
<p>I can tell you this &#8211; when I read your angry email the first time my initial reaction was <em>&#8220;what a shithead.&#8221;</em> Sorry, but that is what I thought. But I decided to email you to find out why you behave this way.</p>
<p>I believe that you have the capacity inside you to get out of your terrible situation. But&#8230; <strong>it MUST start INSIDE you</strong>. You probably have a hell of a lot more to be thankful for than some poor kid in Iraq, or Afghanistan, or Haiti. Start looking at the positive things in life instead of focussing on all the crap. And <strong>stop GIVING crap</strong>. Coz when you give it that is all you will attract. More crap, more grief and then more anger. Like a dog chasing its tail.</p>
<p>You ALREADY know that what I say is true because you also said:</p>
<p><em>&#8220;I will move into my positive mind and I hope soon, and when I do my life will change, but right now my negative mind is killing me. I have alot to do on this planet, and will succeed regardless of how weak and desperate I feel.&#8221;</em></p>
<p>But, if you keep lashing out at people in frustration &#8211; like you did with me &#8211; then all you are doing is suppressing your blossoming into the being you truly want to be. Therefore, your first challenge is to MODERATE your behaviour. Take your aggression out on a punching bag or at the gym &#8211; NOT on other people. That is what I do. I train EVERY day to release the crap that people (like you) throw at me for NO good reason. In fact, as soon as I get done finishing this email, that is EXACTLY what I will do. And I will be just a little bit better today than yesterday for doing that.</p>
<p>Finally, Mike, I can tell that you are educated and fairly intelligent simply by the way you write. You have ability over and above the average 23 year old. With a bit of training you could be very good at the written word. That also is quite obvious to me. I&#8217;m a very experienced writer and I can spot talent in just a few short sentences and paragraphs. Your sentence construction clearly tells me that you have talent. Use it!</p>
<p>I want you to have this: [<strong>POWER OF CHOICE</strong>]  Please read it. You will see that the person in the story could be YOU! Don&#8217;t waste your life Mike. Life is too precious for that. Embrace all the good that you will find WHEN you look for it. It&#8217;s there mate. You just have to be <strong>LOOKING</strong> for it.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve spent over an hour writing this Mike. That is time that I could have been using doing something for myself <strong>but I chose to GIVE that time to YOU</strong>. I sure hope you appreciate it. In all the thousands of people online that you could have abused, you chose me today. And I have invested time in trying to make you see where you are going wrong. Maybe God, in His mysterious way, made me do it. I don&#8217;t know.</p>
<p>Best Wishes</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi, maybe I can help you with something here&#8230; TIME MANAGEMENT. If you take a couple of minutes to read this I&#8217;m sure the ideas you will get will save that time MANY times over and make you FAR more productive.</p>
<p>Being &#8220;busy&#8221; can destroy your ability to get things done. Let me say that again&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Being &#8220;busy&#8221; can destroy your ability to get things done.</strong></p>
<p>How many people do you know who are so busy being busy that they never seem to get anything worthwhile done? <strong>Does that describe you</strong>, maybe even just a little bit?</p>
<p>Being busy all the time, through necessity, is a curse. Being busy all the time, for the sake of it, is just sheer madness. </p>
<p>Continual busy-ness eventually leads to stress, particularly if results are minimal. You see, it will get to a point where something has to give way. It&#8217;s like filling a balloon with air. Eventually no more air will fit inside the balloon and it will do the only thing it can. It will burst. </p>
<p>It&#8217;s OK to have busy periods through each day, each week, each month and each year. However, you also need time to relax. Time to re-charge the batteries. </p>
<p>People who are continuously busy over long periods suffer from two main problems: </p>
<p><strong>1</strong> &#8211; they have difficulty saying &#8220;no&#8221; to anyone<br />
<strong>2</strong> &#8211; they have difficulty delegating tasks to others </p>
<p>Let&#8217;s look at each in turn. </p>
<p>First, those who cannot say &#8220;no.&#8221; I have a saying:<em> &#8220;You can&#8217;t save the entire world.&#8221;</em> No matter how good your intentions are, you cannot be everything to everyone. </p>
<p>Make a list of those who need and DESERVE your time. They are the ones you should give priority to. Anyone else comes next &#8211; if you have the time to spare. </p>
<p>A wise man once said, <em>&#8220;work always expands to fit available time.&#8221;</em> It&#8217;s true. But it is only true if you ALLOW it to happen. </p>
<p>You can always do the odd favor for someone on the odd occasion. Learn to say no in a nice way. Here is one such way: <em>&#8220;If I get all my own work done, I will consider your request.&#8221;</em> What does that really say? It says your work is important. If you get it done you will help. Naturally, if you cannot get it done you cannot help. It&#8217;s a soft way of saying no. Usually the asker will then go and find another person to ask. </p>
<p><strong>By saying no you actually help other people to grow</strong>. Imagine if you always said yes to tying up your daughter&#8217;s shoe laces. If you never said no she would still be asking you to do it at twenty years of age. By saying no you make her learn to do it for herself. Remember the old saying about giving a hungry person a fish to eat versus teaching the hungry person how to catch their own fish to eat? well&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230; there are some people in this world who not only want you to PROVIDE the fish but they want you to scale it, clean it, cook it and serve it up to them for dinner with a side salad. And if they don&#8217;t like it they will complain to you. <strong>Do you know those type of people?</strong> I do. We all do. </p>
<p>By saying no we can free up more time for ourselves and those who need or deserve our time the most. <strong>Do not become a slave to the wants and demands of others.</strong> </p>
<p>Turning to the second problem, delegation &#8211; learn to enlist others to perform tasks that they are better equipped, or have more time, to do. </p>
<p>If you run all over the place attempting to do everything yourself you will never have sufficient time to do anything properly. <strong>Delegation is the art of a true leader.</strong> The secret to successful delegation is to build the importance of the task into the mind of the person you are delegating it to. Then, when they do it, thank them and praise them sincerely for the things they did well. </p>
<p><strong>Don&#8217;t ever think you are irreplaceable</strong>, PARTICULARLY at your employment. Somebody gave me a definition once of irreplaceability in the workforce. It went something like this: <em>&#8220;Get a bucket of water, roll up your sleeve and thrust your arm into the water. Now pull your arm out. The time it takes for the water to settle back into position will be about the same time it will take to replace you!&#8221;</em> </p>
<p>Learning to say no and being able to delegate will allow you to perform the tasks you really want to do and really need to do yourself at a much higher level of proficiency. </p>
<p><strong>AL Williams</strong> wrote a book called <strong>&#8220;All You Can Do is All You Can Do But All You Can Do is Enough!&#8221;</strong> (ISBN: ). Catchy title, isn&#8217;t it? </p>
<p>In his book, Williams says: <em>&#8220;Don&#8217;t worry about things you can&#8217;t change. Focus on making your part of the world better, because when they click your lights out for the last time, you can&#8217;t have any regrets.&#8221;</em> </p>
<p>Like I said earlier &#8211; <strong>you can&#8217;t save the whole world</strong>. Don&#8217;t even try. </p>
<p>If you want to be more productive, try to <strong>re-organize the way you plan your time</strong>. You can do this by: </p>
<p>- making a list of things requiring your attention,<br />
- prioritizing the list,<br />
- doing essential things first, non-essential things last,<br />
- after every third task, rewarding yourself in some small way,<br />
- continuing to work your way through the list in sets of three.</p>
<p>At the end of the day review your list. This is important because it will allow you to see how MUCH you have done and achieved. I do this all the time! Achievement will drive you forward to more achievement. </p>
<p>So, now you don&#8217;t have to be busy, busy, busy and get little done. You can just be busy achieving what you want. </p>
<p>Best Wishes to you, </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve just finished reading <strong>Alex Jeffreys</strong> latest e-book called &#8220;<strong>Newbies Nightmare &#8211; the Advanced Strategies They DON&#8217;T Want You to Know!&#8221;</strong> It&#8217;s a short e-book of some 45 pages with a fair few pictures. I managed to read it all in about 15-20 minutes. [You can see a pic of the cover of <strong>Newbies Nightmare</strong> in the lower LHS column of this page - just scroll down to view.]</p>
<p>Written in an easy-to-read style, the <strong>Newbies Nightmare</strong> explains why <strong>99% of people trying to make money online FAIL!</strong> I gotta admit&#8230; the stuff that Alex wrote about hit home with me too.</p>
<p>I signed on for Alex&#8217;s first coaching course and many of the pages on this blog are dedicated to what was taught. </p>
<p>If you are considering finding a <strong>MENTOR on the Internet</strong> to help you with your marketing and selling then I can <strong>personally</strong> recommend <strong>Alex Jeffreys</strong> to you. He over-delivered on his first course and I know ABSOLUTELY that with <strong>Garry Parkes</strong> now taking on the role of <strong>Operations Manager</strong> that Alex&#8217;s new course will be <strong>EVEN BETTER</strong>!</p>
<p>As I said, troll through this blog and see for yourself the type of information that Alex teaches and the sorts of things that you will learn.</p>
<p>If you want to read the <strong>Newbies Nightmare</strong> then you can get it by clicking here &#8212;> <a href="https://paydotcom.com/r/21977/ZenithMentor/24717468/"><strong><font color="FF000">NEWBIES NIGHTMARE</font></strong></a></p>

<p><strong>PS:1</strong> I have personally met <strong>Alex Jeffreys</strong> and <strong>Garry Parkes</strong> and many other Alex Jeffreys students at the <strong>Internet Marketing</strong> seminars in <strong>Las Vegas</strong> in May/June 2009. You can read about all the fun we had in the previous post on this blog. Just scroll down.</p>
<p><strong>PS:2</strong> Having studied lots of information on Internet Marketing (just look at the size of this massive blog!) there are <strong>TWO basic themes</strong> that keep being said by all the BIG money-makers on-line &#8211; <strong>FREE tip coming</strong>&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230; here it is&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>1</strong> &#8211; Get a MENTOR<br />
<strong>2</strong> &#8211; Build a list</p>
<p>You can begin to achieve part 1 of that right here, right now. Just download the <strong>Newbies&#8217; Nightmare</strong> to see what you are facing if you are trying to go it alone. Then read what <strong>Alex Jeffreys</strong> can do for you. It&#8217;s 100% free so you&#8217;d be crazy not to.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Alex Jeffreys</strong> concluded his coaching programme today for the initial intake of some 500 students. How many are left still standing is unknown. Some never started, some fell by the wayside, some found it &#8220;too tough&#8221; and some just decided that <strong>Alex Jeffreys</strong> wasn&#8217;t the mentor or coach for them. I can&#8217;t say I feel particularly sorry for those who didn&#8217;t emerge into the sunshine from this <strong>Alex Jeffreys</strong> course. They made their decision &#8211; for whatever reason. <strong>They certainly had the same opportunity as those who finished did.</strong></p>
<p>I guess it is like a University course, in some respects&#8230; some finish, some don&#8217;t. In life some people win while others lose. Anyway, I don&#8217;t want to focus on any of that too much longer. You can go to my thread on <strong>winners and losers</strong> if you are interested enough in the REASONS for this.</p>
<p>Some students were unable to make this last webinar for work reasons or family committments, so this summary is for them &#8211; and for any lurkers who come here wanting to avail themselves of free information.</p>
<p>OK. Get a cup of tea or that poison that some of you drink called coffee and settle in coz <strong>the Gazz-Man is gonna end this Alex Jeffrey&#8217;s coaching course with a BIG banging post.</strong> I haven&#8217;t done that for a while and now seems like an appropriate time. I might slap some people around a bit too coz I&#8217;m a bit frustrated with the attitude of some. So, click away now if you are a precious flower who only blooms at midnight when there is nobody around to see you.</p>
<p>Here we go&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Alex Jeffreys</strong> was asked before the session started (by <strong>Theresa Mayhew</strong>, I think) of what the MOST important thing was that HE had learned. Alex said, <em>&#8220;The most important thing I have learned is to take action and step out of my comfort zone.&#8221;</em> Then he also went on to say how he has also learned to sleep less. That was amusing. I think we have all had lessons in this. I know that there have been some days where I have had as little as 2 and 3 hours sleep just trying to get everything done as quickly as possible, and I work fast anyway. The massive size and complexity of this blog is proof of that.</p>
<p>Just on that point &#8211; realise this&#8230; <strong>you are gonna be dead for a bloody long time</strong>. Get all your &#8220;lost&#8221; sleep caught up with then. Seriously, only really lazy people with little ambition waste time getting too much sleep. It&#8217;s OVER-rated folks! Try doing with an hour less. It&#8217;s p155 easy when you try.</p>
<p>Most people seem to prefer my summaries in point form so here is a synopsis of the key points, in chronological order of presentation:</p>
<li> ~ a significant part of on-line marketing consists of off-line planning with a pen and paper
<p><strong>Sorry, but I simply cannot resist myself here!</strong> If you have NOT got a copy of my <strong>ACTION Planner</strong> yet then &#8211; yep, I&#8217;m gonna say this &#8211; you are a DILL &#8211; it&#8217;s FREE, it works, I use the methods myself, so do ALL those people who wrote short testimonials down the LHS margin of this blog. Am I bullsh*tt*ng you? NO! Are they? NO! So, if you don&#8217;t have it then you are at a disadvantage. <strong> I PURPOSE wrote that sucker for THIS COURSE. But is has such wide-spread application both online and offline. </p>
<p>Sure, I could sell the damn thing but it is here FREE!</strong> What are you worried about? That I might trap your email addy and try to FLOG you something down the track? Duh! Do what some other geniuses have done &#8211; download the bloody thing then unsubscribe immediately! It will be your loss anyway coz I have so much good stuff coming up soon. [Hmm, <strong>Stephen Bray</strong>... maybe, as you mentioned over at your blog, I AM getting like <strong>Gary Halbert</strong>! RIP]</p>
<p>My <strong>micro rant</strong> now being over we can go back to the <strong>Alex Jeffreys</strong> component of all this:</p>
<li> ~ an IDIOT with a plan will beat a genius without a plan (GS Gee, that levels the playing field, huh?)
<li> ~ the recipe is only as good as the chef
<li> ~ get your message out to as many people as possible in the marketplace
<p><strong>Short digression: Alex Jeffreys</strong> then presented a 12 month summary from December 2006 to December 2007 in a month by month breakdown of his activity. This was ineteresting. Briefly, he involved himself in&#8230; </p>
<li> ~ writing e-books
<li> ~ looking for JV partners
<li> ~ attending <strong>Mike Filsaime</strong>&#8217;s 7 Figure Code workshop
<li> ~ restructuring his online business
<li> ~ outsourcing
<li> ~ coaching calls with mentors
<li> ~ attending an event put on by <strong>Rich Scheffren</strong>
<li> ~ attending the &#8220;World Internet Summit&#8221;
<li> ~ attending the &#8220;Internet Bootcamp&#8221;
<li> ~ attending the &#8220;Focus for the Future&#8221; seminar
<li> ~ launching his own products
<li> ~ further planning fro 2008 (GS: Oh LOOK! There&#8217;s that word again &#8211; <strong>PLANNING!</strong>)
<p>Alex readily admitted that he wasn&#8217;t getting the results from all the effort he was putting in as this was a &#8220;LEARNING&#8221; stage. Now&#8230; I have mentioned this on several blogs where I have stated something along the lines of:</p>
<p><center><strong>DON&#8217;T confuse the LEARNING stage with the EARNING stage</strong></center></p>
<p>Unfortunately, so many have. I had a <strong>HUGE RANT</strong> (not unusual for me) on this over at <strong>Dean Holland</strong>&#8217;s blog just recently. Dean, maybe you&#8217;d like to link to that page and tell everybody the number of that post. Seriously, some people want to be Usain Bolt before they are even out of daipers. Then they throw a wobbly when they aren&#8217;t making $20,000+ a month like Alex is. <strong>It takes TIME.</strong> Think of the J curve in finance. You, me, we are at the bottom of that J curve.</p>
<p>Back to the <strong>Alex Jeffreys</strong> material:</p>
<li> ~ when your &#8220;system&#8221; is in place the money earned will go on &#8220;auto-pilot&#8221;
<li> ~ revise Module 1 &#8211; forward to basics (revise the fundamentals)
<li> ~ it takes a LOT of failing to become a success
<p>The following point is so pertinent that I am giving it special status. <strong>Alex Jeffreys</strong> said there are two groups of students:</p>
<p><strong>1</strong> &#8211; the ones who WORK their businesses<br />
<strong>2</strong> &#8211; the ones who expect OTHERS to do it for them</p>
<p>My question to YOU. Be honest! Which group do you KNOW you are in. You WILL know!</p>
<p>Moving right along with more notes&#8230;</p>
<li> ~ build your list (GS: a COMMON theme)
<li> ~ observe the 80/20 rule
<li> ~ blogging is a MUST in Web 2.0
<li> ~ your blog creates value and endorses and positions you
<li> ~ learn how to generate traffic
<li> ~ in <strong>one single week</strong> in November 2008 Alex Jeffreys had 51,035 visits
<p>Three critical elements for you to learn how to do:</p>
<p><center><strong>1</strong> &#8211; Position yourself in the market<br />
<strong>2</strong> -create your OWN product<br />
<strong>3</strong> &#8211; Build a list with that product</center></p>
<p>It&#8217;s NOW time to regroup and re-plan:</p>
<li> ~ look at the business you have now built
<li> ~ where can you better your business?
<li> ~ write down all the weak areas
<li> ~ write down all the bad parts
<li> ~ work out leverage points
<li> ~ work out where you need to FOCUS and attend to that first
<li> ~ create a plan out of this and start building right here, right NOW!
<p><strong>Alex Jeffreys</strong> then went on to say that, <em>&#8220;Internet building, with all its different pieces is like a mad circus.&#8221; </em>People get so distracted. HELL! <strong>I get distracted!</strong></p>
<p>He then gave two really wonderful examples of comments made at the blogs of <strong>Gordan</strong> and <strong>Joe</strong>. Gordan gave an analogy of &#8220;children learning how to swim&#8221; and Joe spoke of everybody&#8217;s different &#8220;bag of tricks.&#8221; </p>
<p><strong>Gordan and Joe &#8211; I am not sure who you are but I would really love a copy and paste of those comments at this blog, if you don&#8217;t mind.</strong> If anyone knows who they are please contact them and ask them to come to the <strong>Gazz-Man&#8217;s TEMPLE</strong> of learning for newbies and nail those comments to a notice board here for all the monks to read!</p>
<p>More salient points from Alex&#8230;</p>
<li> ~ we are now at the part where YOUR success will be determined
<li> ~ You have learned the techniques, you have created your site, now it is time to maintain and caress it. <strong>This is YOUR make or break moment!</strong>
<li> ~ This is not the end but the very start.
<p>OK. Time for me to digress&#8230; again&#8230; (I know, I know) This is SO important I am gonna tell you something personal that I don&#8217;t normally like to bung on about too much, especially on my blog. But I&#8217;m gonna do it today coz <strong>this is MAKE or BREAK for everybody on the course.</strong> You can certainly skim read this next bit or just pass over it if you want.</p>
<p><center> ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~</center> </p>
<p>Most of you are now aware that I have a black belt in karate. (It was an impossibility to keep shielding it anyway coz of those blasted aggregator sites that people have. So I came out and said it in point 5 of my &#8220;25 things about Gary&#8221; challenge that has been doing the rounds). </p>
<p>Please TRY to stick with me here coz I think it is very relevant&#8230;</p>
<p>When I attained that level I thought I was the &#8220;duck&#8217;s nuts.&#8221; Seriously. <strong>But I was wrong.</strong> It took me five years of beating myself to a pulp and being beaten to a pulp to get it. But what that really signified was one thing and one thing only &#8211; that I was teachable. Oh maybe it also proved that I could stick with something. But it showed that I could do the &#8220;basics&#8221; and pass a test on them. That is all. </p>
<p>Now, after almost 40 years of HARD and continuous training (incurring many injuries, some of them serious) I can see that so clearly now. I am on a much higher rung of the ladder now. A single black belt to me is such a rank beginner. They know so little. I don&#8217;t even like teaching at that level much. But it is a start. A foot on the rung of the ladder. That is where most of us are now in Internet Marketing, some are a little higher and some are a little lower. </p>
<p><center> ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~</center></p>
<p>[I hope you can appreciate how difficult that last part was for me to write. But for those who can relate to what I said, that was for YOU. If you didn't relate to it then just move on. I'm not gonna make a big deal of it.]</p>
<p>So here are your choices&#8230;</p>
<p><center>[a] Are you gonna drop off the ladder and quit or &#8220;retire?&#8221;<br />
or<br />
[b] are you gonna hang where you are?<br />
or<br />
[c] are you gonna start climbing your way to the top?</center></p>
<p>I could probably go on and on with more of what <strong>Alex Jeffreys</strong> shared in his final webinar module but I think you get the idea.</p>
<p><strong>So, what is the Big Darn Online Secret?</strong> Alex Jeffreys didn&#8217;t really say, did he? Is there a secret? Heh! You think there is? If you want to keep searching for it then good luck. You see, IMO, there are NO secrets on the Internet. Information moves at the speed of the fibre-optic cables which is, effectively, light speed. And if there ever is a secret then it doesn&#8217;t last too long. </p>
<p>The only secret is the one that you hold in your brain. What are you gonna do with the knowledge you now have?</p>
<p>These were the main points of the one hour and fifteen minute concluding Module in the <strong>Alex Jeffreys Internet Marketing Coaching Course</strong>. As usual, I hope this smor<strong>GAZZ</strong>board of information helps those who were unable to attend.</p>

<p><strong>PS:</strong> Congratulations and thankyou <strong>Alex Jeffreys</strong> on a job well done often under very trying circumstances. I am sure that the vast majority of the 500 learned many worthwhile things. I know I have. Bring on Las Vegas!</p>
<p><center>&#8220;Bright light city gonna set my soul<br />
Gonna set my soul on fire<br />
Got a whole lot of money that&#8217;s ready to burn,<br />
So get those stakes up higher<br />
There&#8217;s a thousand pretty women waitin&#8217; out there<br />
And they&#8217;re all livin&#8217; devil may care<br />
And I&#8217;m just the devil with love to spare<br />
Viva Las Vegas, viva Las Vegas&#8221;</center></p>
<p>[lyrics by Doc Pomus and Mort Shuman]</p>
<p><strong>NB:</strong> I haven&#8217;t had time to correct any spelling or grammatical errors in this post properly yet. I&#8217;ll do that after I get back from the gym this evening. I just wanted to get this summary up FAST!<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hello,</p>
<p>Well, I finally got it done&#8230;</p>
<p>Amid a flurry of mis-haps &#8211; dogs barking, phones ringing, jet aeroplanes roaring overhead, batteries running out, interruptions, troubles editing and rendering the video on my computer &#8211; I have FINALLY completed a video.</p>
<p>Here is my <strong>Motivational Moment Video #1</strong>. I have planned a series of 52 of these short Motivational Moment videos. Hopefully, now that I have done the first one, they will get easier to do.</p>
<p>I haven&#8217;t uploaded it to <strong>You Tube</strong> yet. I&#8217;ll get around to that. I just wanted to get it up here first before I go to the gym. Click the link below (2 min 25 sec): </p>
<p><center><a href='http://motivationselfesteem.com/talk/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/motivational-moment-1_0001.wmv'>motivational-moment-1_0001</a></center></p>
<p>OR just watch the short video directly below:</p>
<p><center>
<div id="tmip-5-511007"><embed style="width:400px; height:326px;" id="VideoPlayback" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://video.google.com/googleplayer.swf?docId=-7081549202367857600&#038;hl=en" flashvars=""></embed></div>

<p>I hope you like it. <strong>Watch for my little &#8220;surprise&#8221; at the end</strong>. I was gonna delete it then I thought&#8230; nah, my friends are so used to me doing this thing&#8230;</p>

<p><strong>PS1:</strong> My thanks to <strong><a href="http://paullhamilton.com/"><strong>Paull Hamilton</strong></a></strong> who gave me some good advice via email and on his instructional video &#8211; which I watched about a dozen times, pausing at appropriate places along the way.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi folks,</p>
<p>Just wondering if you would care to make any comments on the usefulness of my new <strong>&#8220;HINTS&#8221; &#038; &#8220;TIPS&#8221; </strong>page. You can find it on the RHS of this page under the <strong>PAGE</strong> title, after the blogroll. </p>
<p>Now, is that a blogroll to be reckoned with or what? I&#8217;m thinking about closing it off soon and I&#8217;m considering not putting any more names on it unless people come here and ask me. I think I&#8217;ve done enough service to new people in that regard. I have welcomed so many people.</p>
<p><strong>Can we just stick to comments about the <strong>&#8220;HINTS&#8221; &#038; &#8220;TIPS&#8221;</strong> page here, please?</strong> Please try to be as brief as you can. I&#8217;m the king of verbosity!</p>
<p>Um&#8230; and if there is anything else that I may be able to help newbies with then you can suggest it here. If I know what you need I may be able to throw some light on it. Please don&#8217;t ask high-tech questions as I am not a techie. Austin Delaney and David Smith are better equipped for that. Sorry guys&#8230; I just dropped you in it, didn&#8217;t I?</p>
<p>Regards</p>
<p>Gary Simpson<br />

<p>Here I am again &#8211; up at 4.15am answering all the emails and blog questions that have inundated my blog overnight. Gee&#8230; I&#8217;m making a rod for my own back here. This blog is busier than a one legged sea gull chasing food.</p>
<p>OK &#8211; we are all here with sardines on our tongues (ie bated breath) awaiting the <strong>Alex Jeffreys Internet Marketing Coaching Clinic Module 3</strong>. Enough of my silliness.</p>
<p>Please come back here after the event and share what you learned. But PLEASE be brief. I am flat out answering all the wonderful comments. That applies ESPECIALLY to you Miss Coleen Cook &#8211; teacher&#8217;s PET and class snitch&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230; over to you guys, I mean&#8230; PEEPS (copyright Dean Holland)&#8230;</p>

<p>I&#8217;ve been up since 4.30am answering blog questions before the <strong>Alex Jeffreys</strong> Module 2 Coaching Webinar. How awesome was it? Lots of info that&#8217;s for sure.</p>
<p>I really feel like Alex is working so hard to make this a success for everyone, himself included. But the thing that I am cementing in my mind is that here AT LAST somebody is giving the newbie and/or the &#8220;puppy&#8221; marketer as he calls them some REAL guidance (ie do this - then do this - fix this - then do this type stuff) And that would be SOMETHING that few others do. Actually, make that no-one.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve lost count of all the damn &#8221;I will tell ALL&#8221; e-books that I have bought over the years. <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Most of them are about as useful as an ejector seat in a submarine.</span></p>
<p>Anyway, what was the key thing that you got out of it with respect to your own personal circumstances?</p>
<p>Regards</p>
<p>Gary Simpson</p>
<p><strong>PS:</strong> Great to hear so many people on the Q&amp;A session at the end too &#8211; and a few that have left their comments here as well.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hello there!</p>
<p>Just a quickie for the moment but I need <strong>YOUR</strong> input&#8230;</p>
<p>I am putting together some notes from <strong>Alex Jeffreys&#8217;</strong> first coaching module. I need to know whether this is ethical (having regard for those who have paid for this information and also to Alex himself).</p>
<p>Would it be ethical and, if so, <strong>what level of detail</strong> should I go into?</p>
<p>My inclination, at this stage, is just to summarise the key points of each segment of the 10 part Module 1 Camtasia video of the webinar. I&#8217;m planning on doing this in bullet point form &#8211; <span style="text-decoration: underline;">IF</span> it goes ahead.</p>
<p>OK, so give me some idea of what I should do here? I don&#8217;t mind doing the work but I am concerned that I may be contravening ethical principles. If so, I will keep my notes to myself.</p>
<p>Copyright wouldn&#8217;t be a problem because I have taken all the notes myself and they are in my words.</p>
<p><strong>If I can get 10 people to say &#8220;do it&#8221; then I&#8217;ll do it.</strong></p>
<p>So, the question is&#8230; do it OR don&#8217;t do it?</p>
<p>Talk to me people!</p>
<p>Best Wishes to you all.</p>
<p>Regards</p>
<p>Gary Simpson</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hello everyone,</p>
<p>First, well done to all those who responded to my question, <strong>&#8220;Alex Jeffreys Mentoring Program &#8211; Anyone Got it Figured Out Yet?&#8221;</strong> Some of you were right on the money &#8211; social media. Even Alex Jeffreys himself came in and confirmed it. If you&#8217;re not sure what I&#8217;m talking about here then just go and read the post and all the comments.</p>
<p>Now, <strong>IT JUST HAD TO HAPPEN DIDN&#8217;T IT?</strong></p>
<p>What?</p>
<p>Well they are out there&#8230; already. </p>
<p>The <strong>buzzards</strong> are circling our camp looking for stragglers and the <strong>seagulls</strong> are flying past dropping their usual load all over everything.</p>
<p>What am I talking about?</p>
<p>I&#8217;m talking about all the nasty, negatively inspired people who are just hoping that the Alex Jeffreys Mentoring Program will crash and burn. I call them buzzards and seagulls.</p>
<p>Now, <strong>Dean Holland</strong> will know EXACTLY what I mean because he has been the target of these people. And, Dean &#8230; dude&#8230; for a young fellow I just gotta say that you responded magnificently to all their criticism and their filthy, disgusting four letter taunts to you and Alex Jeffreys. Some of what I saw was absolute gutter filth.</p>
<p>And I think <strong>Alex Jeffreys</strong> has a very good case to sue some of those people for what they have published and appended their names and identities to. The ISP of at least one of these sites needs to be contacted and made aware of what has been going on under its nose.</p>
<p>You can always tell when some people are jealous. They <span style="text-decoration: underline;">ooze</span> it through the way they behave and what they say. Yes, the big green-eyed monster is <span style="text-decoration: underline;">definitely</span> out there.</p>
<p>Dean, I felt like getting in there and hammering some of those morons but you did a damn fine job just by being nice and polite in the face of their collective vindictiveness. Well done! <span style="text-decoration: underline;">You are a leader!</span></p>
<p><strong>PLEASE</strong>, folks, don&#8217;t try to find these buzzard and seagull sites because all you will see there are&#8230; well&#8230; buzzards and seagulls. They just want to tear at your flesh and poop all over you. They have <strong>ABSOLUTELY NOTHING</strong> decent to contribute to what we are doing.</p>
<p>Keep the faith. Show the strength to ignore them.</p>
<p><strong>Our positive social media</strong> white light will reign supreme over their attempted social media black-hearted attacks.</p>
<p>Remember&#8230; rubbish attracts more rubbish. Graffiti attracts more graffiti. Pity loves company. Let all these pitiful people play in their own graffiti splattered rubbish tip. Do not seek them out. I&#8217;ve been there. I have seen their garbage. It is worthless. In fact, I actually feel sorry for them because I can see how negative and jealous they are.</p>
<p>Well done Dean Holland. You are a good lieutenant to Alex Jeffreys.</p>
<p>Remember &#8211; <strong>everyone</strong> &#8211; the only person who will defeat you will be yourself. Stick together. There is strength in numbers &#8211; just like the movie of the 300!</p>
<p>Let them come and squawk and criticise&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>thump&#8230; thump&#8230; thump&#8230; 300!</strong></p>
<p>Repel their negativity and spite.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>thump&#8230; thump&#8230; thump&#8230; 300!</strong></p>
<p>(I guess you would have had to see the movie to understand the thump, thump, thump stuff  LOL!)</p>
<p>Even roses come under the attack of aphids.</p>
<p><strong>NEVER</strong> let them beat you. <strong>NEVER!</strong></p>
<p>Together we are united.</p>
<p>Onward!</p>
<p>Regards to you all. Until later&#8230;</p>
<p>Gary Simpson<br />
