The Formula For Failure
One thing I make an effort to do is to collect failure secrets. Because if you know how to fail you know how not to fail. Justin Brooke just wrote a great blog post called “The Formula For Failure.” It shares several failure secrets. Check it out!
Robert Plank Shares How To Make $5,000 Writing Articles
One of my favorite bloggers and Internet Marketing types is Robert Plank. This guy is a productivity machine. He’s constantly writing articles, making videos, creating products and more… all while holding a full time day job.

Please Leave A Comment If You Have A Blog…
I’m wondering how many of my readers have a blog. If you’re reading this and you do have a blog, will you leave a comment? If you don’t have a blog, consider starting one. Blogs are a great way to start a business or generate traffic. A great way to establish yourself as an authority […]
How To Double Your Productive Hours
I just watched this video by Perry Belcher. I was surprised to find we have a similar technique (and reasoning) for keeping organized and focused. Watch the video if you’d like… I don’t use post-it notes. But I do jot down thoughts as they come to me for the purpose of clearing them from my […]
Forget The Recession!
Hmmm… I’m assuming you just read the title of this post. I wrote it, but I didn’t mean it. I’ve heard comments like “forget the recession” or “ignore the recession” lately.

She was… using the backspace key WAY too much, constantly deleting her progress because in her words, “It wasn’t good.” staring at the screen wondering […]
Going Mobile
I’m making some more switches to my business to make it more mobile. Coinciding with the death of my laptop, I’ve decided to make an extra effort to make all of my business files accessible from the web. And preferably in more than one place. This way if my laptop suddenly shuts down on me, is […]
