Internet Gurus in the Buff

I’ve Had It With The Law of Attraction

You'll never attract anything worthwhile by being a shadow of yourself.  Live life on purpose.

You'll never attract anything worthwhile by being a shadow of yourself. Live life on purpose.

The Law of Attraction has gotten a lot of mileage from self-help gurus intent on telling common folks that they can’t ever understand its premise  without their worldly assistance.  Bah! Humbug!  Curse “The Secret” movie for passing on a ridiculous notion that thinking alone can bring a diamond ring or a Mazarati.

Truth be it that people who are doing splendidly may be total a-holes or they may be saints.  They may wake up ready to spit on the first human who crosses their path or they may be devoted to neverending service.

In most cases they haven’t the foggiest notion why they are on top of their game or why they have the inherant or acquired talents which have enabled them to execute masterfully.  But the guru gawkers and those who live their fantasies vicariously through others plead with the guru to impart magic words of wisdom or explain exactly how they have attracted big bucks and fame.

He/she does what the fans ask and consequently gets even richer and more removed from the struggling rabble.  The gawkers fall in love with rabble-rousing speeches, sophisticated how-to manuals, and nifty software applications which inevitably collect cyber dustballs on their harddrives.

While I do believe you can’t fly like an eagle by hanging around a flock of turkeys, I also believe we can’t be a carbon copy of an eagle just by wishful thinking, reading good books about successful eagles, or engaging in eagle-speak. 

That’s why the euphoria of a weekend seminar seldom transforms a turkey into an eagle.

No two people are alike in how to find happiness and success.  No two flowers grow identically, even though they may be in the same soil, same climate, and the same elements.  Our destiny is tied with detaching ourselves from the outcome and just following our true heart.

That destiny must never be tied to a dependance on others to give us our life path and energy to attain it.  You will attract what you really want and need in this life by being true to yourself.

Sometimes greatness burst onto the scene after years of living in the shadows.  Watch this…

Promoting Products You Don’t Use

Promoting another is really a matter of trust more than product.

Promoting another is really a matter of trust more than product.

Indian guru Sai Baba was quoted as saying, “The joy one gets while promoting another’s joy is incomparable.”  Undoubtedly, he was a man who could have been writing for the Internet Age of  affiliate programs, read email schemes and such.

There is a growing cluster of high-value entrepreneurs working online who value-add every day they live.  Their products are in demand and their character is anchored in integrity.  Who wouldn’t want to hang around with such divine people?

Yes, if we look into the checkered past of some of these esteemed individuals, we can find justification for hesitation in handing over greenbacks to them.  They charm, critics may say, because they relish lucrative and frequent paydays.

So when we get an affiliate link to some product that these people are flogging, we can trust that it is good, though we may not have the funds nor interest to first try it ourselves.

They – whoever they are –  always get rave attention and stellar results.  They have the Midas Touch, and we commoners can catch some loose change by promoting them.

Perry Marshall is a great example of  a stellar marketer with a down-to-earth attitude towards everyone he encounters.  His site content is rich in ideas on Adwords, Adsense and SEO-related materials.  His life philosophy is well-grounded.

Yet what sets him apart is that he really seems to care  about over-delivering to clients and prospects.  I have virtually no hesitation in promoting him as an affiliate.  He knows his stuff and his content stuff can make you a bundle of money, even if it bores you to death.

Perry just announced that he’s hosting a free teletraining on
- Bionic ad technique for breaking out of an ad writing rut that gets your ads to stand out from the crowd (and get higher click through rates)
- Facebook PPC bidding tactic from a mysterious Mr. R
- Shelley Ellis’ top tool for zeroing in on placements
I’ve seen the content and what Perry’s going to share is a really powerful tactic that can be used right away. So I suspect the response to this is going to be very very positive.

Video is all the Rage

10 February 2010 | No Comments »

But the big question is: Will it last or will something replace it?

No, nothing can replace visual. The impact has been proven again and again by psychologists studying the impact of TV and movies on our attitudes and behaviors.

There are some outstanding video gurus out there and most of them are giving away free information to help the rank beginner get started. Video is easy to get first-page ranking with in select niches where video competition is nil.

The people who I highly recommend for training and products with video include Mike Koehnigs (great presentation), Andy Jenkins (the mestro), and Gideon Shalwick.

Get started. It isn’t hard to get going, though there is a learning curve. But putting up video for your niche will bring you instant recognition. Don’t get it right, just get it going. Distinguish yourself.

Racism on the Internet is Equivalent to Apartheid

28 January 2010 | No Comments »

I made this stark YouTube video because the world is a big place and is more non-white than white.  Yet if you look at the Internet Marketing and Self-Help fields (and other) virtual inner circles, they smack of racism, mostly of the unintentional sort, and exclusionary tendencies.

I am not dancing with minorities just to show how liberal and open-minded I am, but just pointing out a blatant wrong that needs to be righted.

First they came for the communists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a communist;
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist;
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew;
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak out.

First they came for the communists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a communist;

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist;

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew;

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak out. ~Pastor Martin Niemöller~

More Than An Entertainer

18 January 2010 | No Comments »

Entertainers are our escape from reality.  We often transfer our power to the star who can live out our fantasies, make love like Casanova, hobnob with the in-crowd, and rake in moolah like there is no tomorrow.

Find Your Perfect Business!

Vicariously living through others is a one-way ticket to mediocrity and underachievement.  The next time you plant yourself in front of a TV when you could be improving your life and vocational skills, remember that

“Sport in the sense of a mass-spectacle, with death to add to the underlying excitement, comes into existence when a population has been drilled and regimented and depressed to such an extent that it needs at least a vicarious participation in difficult feats of strength or skill or heroism in order to sustain its waning life-sense.” ~Lewis Mumford~

Get on your game before life kicks the wind out of you.  Movie star Will Smith says it better than most.  He consistently speaks and conveys through his body language that he believes the God-force works through him (and through us).  Watch this:
