>QUIT Falling For HYPE!
by Laurie Rogers
Well here we go again, long gone are the days of Going
Platinum and iNet Star - a *new* breed of programs are
popping up into our inboxes. Sadly enough though, all the
people who didn't learn their lesson the first time around,
probably won't learn their lesson this time around either.
I for one, am quite elated to stay within my comfort zone.
Although, my comfort zone may appear boring to you, it's
what provides me with a secure and stable income each
month. You see, unlike all of the people who "claim" they
make a lot of money online, I actually make a fairly decent
living. I am by no means trying to sound callous, I am just
giving you the facts.
Sure, I will be the first person to admit it wasn't easy, but
when I truly started listening to my mentors (Frank Garon,
Jimmy Brown, Terry Dean, Yanik Silver, Joel Christopher,
just to name a few), things began to change for the better.
When I first came online, I struggled for quite some time
with money. My problem was that, even though I had ALL
of the right tools, I wasn't using them to the best of my own
ability.
I didn't even know what MY "best ability" was, and I kept
asking myself, Where was it? What was it? How was it? I
literally thought I would NEVER find it and was always left
in wonderment - if I would ever truly succeed online. So, I
began dusting off those old ebooks and courses and read
them all over again. Without a doubt reading can bring you
much knowledge, but you also have to WANT to apply that
knowledge.
A lot of people are completely stumped over the fact that
they should actually "read" and "learn" from ebooks. And
for some reason they just don't get it and it's not because
they are *dumb or stupid*, it's because they do NOT want
to get it! You see, there are a lot of people buying ebooks,
courses, tapes etc. but the question is, what VALUE are
they to you, if you're not reading them? They all just want
to resell them - which is fine, I resell the ebooks I buy too,
BUT I also want to LEARN from them. That is a HUGE
difference!
Certainly, I know by now that Frank, Yanik, Jimmy, Terry
etc. have better things to do with their day, then to cough
out an ebook or tape set that isn't going to BENEFIT us
ALL in some way. And certainly there is a lot of garbage
out there too! But, think about it for a moment, truly GOOD
ebooks don't become "best sellers", because they stink,
they become "best sellers" because they have VALUE.
The point is, sure it might be great to get in on some HOT
new program and make a few bucks that you need right at
this moment. But, is it really going to provide YOU with the
financial STABILITY that you NEED in the long run? And if
you can't look at that question and see the REAL answer,
maybe it is time YOU started dusting off YOUR ebooks, so
YOU can start LEARNING from them too.
QUIT Falling for the HYPE!
