Friday, 12:34 PM<\/p>\n

Dear Friend,<\/p>\n

Sometimes I need to let new ideas “percolate” a while inside my cranium.<\/p>\n

It helps me put everything in the proper place… separating the wheat from the chaff, so to speak.<\/p>\n

Now that I’ve had some percolating time… and after reviewing my notes… I thought you might like to discover a few of the things I picked up at John Carlton’s Action Seminar<\/a>.<\/p>\n

These aren’t presented in any particular order. I’m just getting them on paper (metaphorically speaking) as they pop into my demented noggin.<\/p>\n

Here goes…<\/p>\n

Clarity of Vision<\/strong><\/p>\n

Should you be doing this<\/em>… or that<\/em>? Your clarity of vision will dictate what you should be doing.<\/p>\n

What? No clarity of vision? Well, then you’re going to be running around in circles chasing your tail an awful lot.<\/p>\n

Focus!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Don’t multi-task. FOCUS on the task at hand. The reason you’re multi-tasking and not focusing is that nasty “D” word… DISCIPLINE.<\/p>\n

And you lack it.<\/p>\n

Four Tips To Multiply Your Productivity<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Surgically remove “psychic vampires”<\/li>\n
  2. Sweat! (Detox & exercise) If you’re not sweating on a regular basis, you’re toxic.<\/li>\n
  3. Eliminate sugar and processed food.<\/li>\n
  4. Use tools. (The bigger your computer monitor, the more you get done.)<\/li>\n
  5. “Messianic” sense of purpose.<\/li>\n
  6. “Noise” elimination.<\/li>\n
  7. “Theater of the mind” (Read Psycho-Cybernetics for details)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Here’s some more cool stuff from da man himself.<\/p>\n

    Nobody would deny that…<\/p>\n

    John Carlton is a MASTER wordsmith. <\/strong><\/p>\n

    If you’ve read any of his copy or newsletters it’s quite evident.<\/p>\n

    Not only has he mastered the written<\/em> word, but every time he opens his mouth these incredibly interesting word choices fly out… usually leaving lesser mortals completely speechless.<\/p>\n

    Here’s a “Carltonism” I intend to swipe for a future article or sales copy:<\/p>\n

    He said there is a “sewer of negativity”<\/strong> <\/em>in many of the online marketing forums.<\/p>\n

    Isn’t that great?<\/p>\n

    He could have said there was “a lot of negative people” or there is “much negativity”… but “sewer of negativity” is just so much more powerful and visceral, isn’t it?<\/p>\n

    Now watch… next week we’re gonna see “sewer of negativity” used in everybody’s eZines, blogs and sales copy… without any nod or acknowledgment to John.<\/p>\n

    He’s probably used to that by now.<\/p>\n

    Anyhoo… here’s another gold nugget:<\/p>\n

    James Shramko, a young hotshot who has experienced incredibly fast growth in his Internet business said…<\/p>\n

    “If you want to get rich,
    ask better questions and solve more problems.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

    He also shared his formula for selling lots of products:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Find prospects…<\/li>\n
    2. Find out what they’re buying…<\/li>\n
    3. Sell it to them.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      What an elegantly simple formula, huh? And you can become a millionaire with it… quicker than you could imagine.<\/p>\n

      John Carlton also shared his secret on…<\/p>\n

      How To Write A Book In 20 Days!<\/strong><\/p>\n

      It’s a brilliant technique… and simple to do.<\/p>\n

      Sorry, but I’m keeping it to myself. It’s just too powerful to leak out to the great unwashed masses. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

      Actually, the truth is I really don’t have time to explain it right now. Maybe some other time.<\/p>\n

      For your sake, I sincerely hope John releases the DVDs of the seminar. It’s the only way you’re going to discover a lot of these marketing gems.<\/p>\n

      And last but not least…<\/strong><\/p>\n

      I’m working on a really exciting project soon with Bond Halbert. I think I’ll let him fill you in.<\/p>\n

      Take it away, Bond. (Now is when you should click the play button below.)<\/p>\n

      [hdplay id=8 ]<\/p>\n

      Pretty exciting, huh?<\/p>\n

      I’m not sure how soon the Florida meetings will start… but I hope it’s soon.<\/p>\n

      I’ve got some other excellent video tips from the seminar I promise I’ll upload soon.<\/p>\n

      All the best,
