Got Joy? — Resilience and Online Success

Posted: September 5th, 2009 | Author: Laraine |

For the last month, we’ve been talking about how learning new skills and habits can lead to success.  We’ve explored some existential questions and pondered the value of using great teaching resources to move us forward.  Sounds serious.

Whether you get to ‘follow your bliss,’ as they say, is huge.  And yet, we can all think of someone who is so serious about it all, they couldn’t find bliss in a bowl full of bliss.

This post wants nothing from you but this:  Mix it up!

Yes, yes, improve your mood and increase your energy with more and more of what helps you succeed.  Great teaching can be unspeakably helpful.  Follow the good ones.

Then go forget about everyone else for awhile and be.  Try actually being with yourself!  As noted in the Attention Age report, that’s not so easy.  Way too many pieces of information vying for top-dog in our brains.

Employing your imagination is born out of giving it room to wander.

Find your next resource and begin learning — AFTER you make joy.  Sustainable entrepreneurship covers more time-distance than the sprint.  Joy helps maintain the stamina and resilience you’ll need on that challenging road to success.

joy amongst wisdom and power

Super Affiliates: Turn-on or Turn-off?

Posted: August 31st, 2009 | Author: Laraine |

First, think of something you wish everyone knew.  Well, at least everyone you wish well!  (We’re working on wishing everyone well.)

Next, think of something very valuable you wish everyone could have in their lives.  Tangible or Intangible, Practical or Just for Fun or Beauty.  These should be things you really believe in for this thing to work.

Now put those two steps together:  (an example in action:  Jeff Johnson’s new video)

Think of how to make it possible
for more folks to know what they need to know
to have the valuable things they want and need.

Some people learning how to be affiliates begin by trying to answer those questions.  What do I wish I could teach people so they could have the freedom they desire?

The freedom to pursue their passions,
and the freedom from life’s pains.

One way to accomplish this is to find outstanding teachers and connect them with new students and followers.

  • Teachers who actually care about their students,
  • and who practice what they teach.
  • Trainers who are ethical, experienced,
  • and in the case of entrepreneurs, highly successful long-term.
  • Coaches who fit their leadings into the broad context of people’s real lives.
  • Students who want to know the material being taught — because they want that value and freedom in their lives.

We at APTservicesgroup.com are very picky.  We have done some serious homework in finding you reputable and talented resources.  We have checked out every person we recommend, and have studied something and benefitted from every one.

These are the Cream of the Crop.

Their courses, newsletters, products, and email lists deliver massive value to someone trying to live healthily, get their own online business going, manage time more effectively, kick fears away, and in short, Move Forward.

This week, check out Jeff Johnson’s new video on his blog.  If you don’t know Jeff, he’s a fast-talker.  He moves so fast, video is perfect — you can replay it to take your notes and capture all the juicy gems he tosses out to you.

If you’re a newbie, Don’t let the marketty-sounding parts turn you off.  Get past that and think of the value and benefits his training could bring your life.  He’s a family guy from Michigan who is so comfortable with his knowledge of business that he’s not even embarrassed to sound marketty.  But he takes beginners from clueless to ethical cash with great care and skill.

You’ll want to try his mailing list for awhile.  He sends out great content and free software all the time.  He never spams and every email includes an opt-out option.  We love his clear, detailed videos. Put your email address in the bold green bar on Jeff Johnson’s Underground Training Lab blog.  Yeah, we know, it looks “marketty.”  But it’s safe and wonderful.

Are you still here?  Go find out how to make it possible. Get the means to have

Freedom to Pursue Your Passions,
and more Freedom from life’s pains.

Yeah.
