I wrote my last article on the theory of “gambling” and  how it drives the human race. I then saw my favorite quote EVER and thought it tied in nicely. Print it, put it somewhere you can see it, and live by it. Your life will never be the same.

” The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement; and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who never know neither victory or defeat.”

Yes, I do love Kenny Rogers. This is not about country music though. This is about the genetic predisposition that humans have to gamble. Did you just say “What did he just say?” You heard me correctly. All humans are gamblers and you should learn to embrace it. Let me prove it to you. We must credit everything you value in life to humans gambling. Ever since the first amoeba crawled out of the sludge looking for more food our race has been pushing the limits. Think about fire. Try and count all the deaths that have occurred from humans trying to control it.  Yet, it has affected food, health, travel, power, heat, and a million other things. What if we had just said “Man that is hot. Let’s leave that crap alone!”

The evolution of mankind has been determined by risk versus reward. People gambling something they cherish ( money, time, there life) in an effort to create something they desire. You think it was safe for Michelangelo to be painting so high in the Sistine Chapel? Maybe you forget about the Wright Brothers? You know, those guys that were 100 feet of the ground in something that they didn’t even know would fly?

Everything you see in your daily life, everything you see when you travel, everything you see on television (including the television) started from an idea. That idea had to be nurtured somehow. For ideas to come to fruition people must voice there idea and risk being ridiculed. People must risk there time chasing that dream. People must waste there money creating that vision. All the while gambling on the fact that this idea is a good one and will pay off.

I am a gambler and I appreciate all other human beings who embrace it.  It is because of those gamblers past, that I live the life I do today. If you want to truly live life then you must chase those wild reams you have. You must voice your genius plan. When you start to make this a daily habit you start to feel that rush that only creation can bring. 

Now that doesn’t mean you should be a degenerate. There is a difference between gambling to win and gambling to lose. Addicted gamblers are just looking for a way to self destruct. True gamblers are different. They study the odds. If they have enough facts to believe that  they can win then they do not hesitate to put there money on the table.

Every time.

Everybody knows the world economy has taken a big dip. People are being laid off and institutions that were once thought to be untouchable are falling like flies. What most people do not understand is that the internet is still growing. There are, in fact, over 1.4 billion people who are currently on the net. Traffic to websites grew by 50%-100% in 2008. This happened during the worst economic year that anyone can remember.

Statistics show that over $200 billion was spent online in the U.S. last year.

So what does that mean to you? Simple. You need to learn internet marketing.

Think about it from this perspective: If you want to be wealthy (or even just secure) you have to be self-employed. Now your choices are 

1) Start a brick and morter business.

2) Start an internet business.

Have a look at any street USA. Seriously, go count how many people are walking around spending money. The streets are near dead. Now imagine opening a store that sells TVs or groceries or art supplies. Where are the customers? Now compare that to something like Google where you can access 1000 people per day in your niche almost overnight. It doesn’t even really seem fair. I personally only have one brick and morter business and it is because 2000 people per day are brought straight there from a cruise ship. All my other businesses are online because, frankly, that is where the money is.

So the question then becomes where do you start?

Well it depends on what you like.

If you want to create your own product I suggest Frank Kern.

If you want to market someone else’s product I would suggest www.mlmleadsystempro.com or www.therichjerk.com, maybe even Arbitrage Conspracy

If you are looking for  a full service education system with pre-built websites and a professional call center to help close your sales then I would suggest www.carboncopypro.com

At the end of the day I don’t care what you choose. Just choose something. My experience over the last five years have been nothing short of amazing. The people I have met, the places I have been, and obviously the money are out of this world.

This is a topic I have wanted to write about for many years but was worried I may “offend” some people. I no longer care. Over the last five years I have purchased about $100,000 worth of information online. I did this to stay ahead of the curve and improve my odds on being successful. In the last year I have started to notice that almost every author I buy from has someone calling them a “scam”. How is it possible that every known expert on the internet is a “scam”?

I started to do some research. I randomly picked some people who have affected my life in a positive way. I did a Google search on these people:

Anthony Robbins-  He has  sold millions of books, helped thousands of people, and suggests love as a way of doing business. Apparently, he is a scam.

Donald Trump- Self made billionaire, TV show host, best selling author. Guess what also called a scam.

Oprah - Self made billionaire and super philanthropist. Also called a scam. Impossible you say? More like unbelievable.

Now, just for fun I thought I would enter the search term Mother Theresa. There is no way that someone could call an icon, a person of such amazing levels of compassion, a saint, a scam is there? Wrong. There is actually a website that calls her a fraud and an evil person. That one blew my mind.

How could all these people and there businesses be a scam? The truth is….they aren’t. The true scammer is the person writing the article about them.

Now, I am not saying that there aren’t illegal or illegitimate businesses out there. There are. But not anywhere close to as many as you think. At least 98% of people and businesses that are of accused being a scam are being improperly labeled. Here are the  three reasons why calling something a scam is a scam.

1) People take zero responsibility for the decisions they make. They buy some information  or start a business and when it doesn’t work for them they call it a scam. Did they do the research? Did they follow the instructions? Were they under capitalized? There are so many reasons why a person can fail and 99% of them are the fault of the buyer.

2) They want to “ride the coat tails”. This means they have something they want to sell and they leverage the successful person’s traffic to get people to there website. If you ever see someone selling something right after they trash a person on there site then understand it is a marketing tactic. It has zero credibility.

3) Consumer protection-like sites. These are the biggest scammers out there. Most of owners cannot even be found for a reason. They are constantly being sued for slander but if you can’t find them you can’t sting them. They allow uneducated people to whine and complain about people and companies without verifying the validity of anything. You could even go on these sites as an employee of a company and randomly trash your competition….without anyone verifying the truth. So why do these sites exist? So the owners can sell advertising spots on there website. They are cockroaches. Plain and simple.

I hope this article gets passed around to millions of people. I want to educate everyone on how ridiculous things are getting. If you have a bad experience with something then ask yourself if you could have done something more.

Why?

Because that is how you learn. If you never take any responsibility for your failures then it makes it almost impossible to succeed. Look at the people who have the results you want and copy them. Don’t rip them down.

Don’t be a coward and call them a scam.

So the world sucks right now. At least that’s what the dipshits on CNN would have you believe. Here is the funny thing: if you tell the world we are in a recession then nobody spends money which makes a bigger recession sooooo they are actually making it worse. The bright side is that people “in the know” make money in every cycle and they actually make more in a down one. True story! So here are a couple ways you can clean up over the next year.

1) Buy Gold- When currencies get trashed, like the US government is doing right now, gold shoots up like a rocket. Read Mike Maloney’s book on buying gold at his website www.goldsilver.com He actually expects gold to be worth 10 times it’s current value in the next three years. Talk about a return.

2) Get involved in a Network marketing company- Why? Simple. People are panicky, getting laid off, and NEED a solution. That means they are looking and it will be as easy as it has ever been for you to make some money. Watch this video on youtube to help you find a good company: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5Vm0FmfVTs

3) Buy real estate- I know this sounds crazy right now but the Rockefellers made a fortune during the Great Depression buying up foreclosed/cheap real estate. I think the bottom of the market is still a year away but you can get some smoking deals right now that will not only provide you positive cash flow but will also appreciate over the next 5 years. Think it’s too expensive? These guys will find it, sell it to you, and rent it for $20,000. Clear title! Ridiculous. www.growrichproperties.com

Making money is all about mindset. Change your “feelings” about how things are right now. If you start to look for the opportunities you will feel like redneck at a Nascar race. So may things to choose from!

Be Awesome!

One of my favorite new people is Jimmy Davis. He has a very cool story that is similar to mine. Three years ago he was living in his parents basement and last year he made $1.6 million without spending a dime on marketing. Not only that, the guy is just real and won’t sweat about dropping the occasional f-bomb. At one point in this video I almost make him cry. Try and find it.

PS This video is in 3 segments so just let it keep playing.

If you don’t know who Frank Kern is then do a Google search on him or his product Mass Control. Frank Has sold more than $20,000,000 in products online (and that was just last year alone). The reason Frank has such a loyal follower base is because he gives away SO much great content in his pre-launch. The quality is so high that you begin asking yourself “How good must the product be if he gave me all this already?” The other great thing about the content he gives away is it is easy to follow and doesn’t overload you with useless informations-so you actually watch it. I am not posting any affiliate links to sell stuff for Frank here so you can take my word on this. He is avery compelling copywriter that I take a lot of direction from and you should too.

Be Awesome,
