It doesn’t sound like anger to me, Sean.

Leave it up. 🙂

About three years ago, I bought a van in Bowling Green KY. I spent the night with my oldest son and his wife there. We went out to eat with his inlaws (one of which has since died), picked up the van, spent the night, went to revival meeting the next day at my home town Church nearby.

At that time I was still drinking Pepsi.

He had bought a six…[Read more]

I first read this on my phone and didn’t see the 90 days part and assumed it was a month, which added to the What??? factor.

Still, 90 days seems like a tall order, but I think it is great to ask these “what if” questions, they often lead to breakthroughs.

If the average independent marketer could do this and the subscribers be in alignment with…[Read more]

Sean,

As raised in another recent thread (by Julia Rotgers), a lot of hard dedicated and targetted work over a period of months would be required. Effort require to get a 1000 subscribers may well have to be similar to the levels of action, you yourself had to take when you submitted all of those many, many ezine articles in the past.

I don’t,…[Read more]

Hey Bruce,

That should give you a break from PreneurPal then…lol..although the input to this group might therefore drop somewhat!

Good luck with the move my friend. It can be a stressful time.

Sean,

I will be making initial preparations for my first official speech, that I will be giving to a Speaking club I have joined. It is only going to be 5 minutes long, but that is a lot longer than it seems when one is stood up in front of a bunch of people who, while very supportive, are also analyzing in order to provide feedback on my effort.…[Read more]

How do you keep the sand and salt out of your computer? 😉

Days like that, Sean, are wonderful.

They’re anchors in the storm of life.

They’re monuments to God’s faithfulness that we can look back to when we’re struggling.

I can see, from re-visiting these posts, how easily I forget what I’ve suggested to other people.

Often, I feel like I’m living in two parallel lives.

There’s the one where I’m doing all the things that I want to do, and then there’s the one where everything changes almost as soon as I get out of bed. LOL

In order to make 80/20 work in the way…[Read more]

Great insight, Julia.

I like the idea of trying to create more content than I consume.

One thing I’ve noticed is that the more I read, the more I want to write.

This has been particularly frustrating in the day job because there I’m reading constantly, trying to stay up on what’s happening on the Internet, all the while working with no budget,…[Read more]

Getting ready to move in a couple of days.

I don’t have much stuff. Everything will fit into a van, but the main thing is that I won’t have an Internet connection for a couple of weeks.

I’ll have to do everything online in the office (day job).

On the one hand, I’m looking forward to that.

No TV, no Internet, and even the cellphone won’t work…[Read more]

Something that I think most people have missed is that Google, Facebook, YouTube – all platforms, for that matter – have agendas that are different from those of IM-ers or anyone else who is trying to monetize their space.

Perhaps it can be thought of like this: In the UK, they speak of working at “cross-purposes.” It means that people who are…[Read more]

Great insights from Both Bruce and Sean! There is one thing that probably could be said here for those reading it all… Launching a product at a lower price is better than not having anything out there at all because you’re working on getting it worthy of charging more. Sean is right that it makes a great buyer lead. It also helps eliminate…[Read more]

As a matter of curiosity, Les, what does a typical day look like for you?

Hi Robert,

Thanks for the encouragement. I certainly hope I can find the right track and the right work balance sooner rather than later.

Wow Julia,

It seems you are super organised and have become super disciplined. Without developing those skills I don’t see how anyone could make it work.

Your approach may well, in the future, compare with all the foundational groundwork and massive amount of posting done by Sean Mize to ezinearticles that, ultimately, kicked started his path to…[Read more]

Yvonne,
Very good post…something we all need to remember. What you’ve said would be like a motivational speaker or a preacher deciding not to deliver his/her message because someone else just did something similar. Nobody EVER is the same. We are all totally different people, with different things to say and from a completely different…[Read more]
