The new year is coming and 2009 is drawing to an end.

In time like this, i am always anticipating…. what thing will hold for me in 2010.

One thing i do know.  The best way to predict the future is to create it.

If i want to make more money online in 2010, i need to do something.  I need a plan.

In view of the coming year, i would like to share with you a quote that hold very dearly to me.

Here’s you go: “You cannot possess what you don’t understand”.

To achieve understanding, we need to do it.  We can have all the knowledge necessary to make us successful.  However, if we cannot translate knowledge to understanding, we will not succeed.

This could  be the reason why so many people who have spent so much money attending courses failed in their endeavour.

They simply did not take action to gain understanding from the knowledge that they have acquired.

So… the progression of this successful formula is:

Knowledge —–>  Understanding ——>  Wisdom

When you are wise, money, success and wealth will flow to you… like a magnet attracting paper clips.

Once again happy 2010.

Talk to you next year.

Christmas is coming and the new year is drawing very very near.  As we say farewell to 2009 and embrace 2010, we are not too sure what will happen to the economy. Will it be a bullish year or will it be what the trader calls a double dips which is a bearish year.  Nobody know.

Will 2010 bring us joy, prosperity, wealth and health?  Nobody know.  However, one thing we do know.  We know that as long as we are still living, we can choose to live our life with dignity, joy, love and happiness.  What’s matter is what we do with the ‘dash’ that are given to us in our lifetime — the time when we are born to the time we leave this world.

In the closing weeks to the new year, it is again a time of reflection…. a time to make correction and changes for the better… a time to live and a time to be happy no matter what.  Merry Christmas and Happy 2010 to you!

Watch the ‘Dash’ Song sang by Kirk Dearman and be touched and be aware of who you are and what you what to achieve in your life.  Whatever that is good and desirable, go do it and make it happen.  God bless!

Here is the lyrics of the ‘Dash’ Song. Enjoy!

‘There was a man who stood to speak at the funeral of a friend.
 He read the dates on her tombstone from the beginning…to the end. He noted first came the date of her birth and spoke the following date with tears, but he said what mattered most of all was the dash between those years.

For that dash stands for all the time that she spent alive on earth…
and only those who loved her know what that little line is worth. It matters not, how much we own; the cars….the house…the cash. What matters is how we live and love and how we spend our dash.

So think about this long and hard…are there things you’d like to change?
For you never know how much time is left that can still be re-arranged. If we would just slow down enough to consider what’s true and real and always try to understand the way that other’s feel. We’d be much less quick to anger and show appreciation more and love the people in our lives like we’ve never loved before.

So, when your eulogy’s being read and your life is being rehashed…would you be proud of the things they say about how you spent your dash?’

On December 5th, the legendary Jim Rohn has passed away.

Indeed, he has left behind us some ground-breaking success secrets that CAN change anyone life if he chooses to listen and embrace.

Here are some of the success secrets that i have learned from Rohn.

‘Success is something that you attract, not pursued.  Work hard on myself and success will come.’  Oh man, this one really strike the right chord in my life.  All this while, i have been thinking and strategizing how to be successful in business and in investing.  Little did i realized that success is found inside me.. yes, right inside me… the man in the mirror. Whow!!!

One of my friend Wilson told me that i have to confront the man in the mirror every morning when i wake up and every night before i go to sleep in order to strike a deal to work cordially with him… everyday!  Oh yes, i will work hard on myself and attract all the success that the world can offer me.

The other great thought from Rohn is that my income is directly related to my philosophy, not the economy.  The economy is an external factor that i cannot control.  But i can change myself by imparting and adopting the right philosophies in life.  Once i am changed, the world will start to change.  Yes, this may sound a bit deep, but at this moment, my heart resonate with it.

Finally, this is something BIG.  Rohn said that profit is more important than wages. Profits give me a fortune but wages only give me a living.  Profit is exciting but wages is monotonous. How’s true!   We can create a fortune by running a business in parallel with working on a job for a living.  Life will be more colorful and exciting when we have something BIG to look forward to… to create a fortune that we can never ever dream possible in our life.  Go ahead and as NIKE says ‘JUST DO IT’.

This is a video of a speech from Jim Rohn, in remembrance of this great man. Thanks Rohn.  Rest In Peace!

This is indeed the ultimate affiliate system that you can ever find online and offline.

Most internet marketer has been obssessed with list building. They want to own the largest list possible so that they can sell the *shit* out of them.

Some more advanced marketer will tell you that it is a responsive list that they care to own. They want a buyer list, a list of people who trust and believe in him.

Well, this is all good but… BUT…. there are something lacking here.

What if you own a list of affiliates instead? Picture this… you have 2000 subscribers in your list. But what if i come to you to exchange for your 2000 subscribers with my list of only 40 affiliates?

Will you make the exchange? Yes? No?

What if i tell you that each of my 40 affiliates own a list of 2000 sbuscribers each. Har… now i am sure you are interested, right?

This is not the ultimate. The ultimate is when you have a mutli-tiers reward system where you pay affiliate brokers royalties income for helping you brokage for affiates to promote your product?

To continue with the earlier example, what if you now have 40 brokers who each own a list of 40 affiliates which each of this affiliates own a list of 2000 subscribers?

Do the maths! Now you have 40 x 40 x 2000 = 3.2 millions subsribers to promote your products. Whow! Do you salivate? I do.

In this scenarios, you only need to build relation with your 40 affiliate brokers only. You do not need to build relationship with 3.2 millions subscribers. The less you manage, the better it will be as you can focus and personalized your relationship with each of your 40 affiliate brokers.

And you are leveraging on the existing relationship that your brokers have build with their army of affiliates. In addtional, you are also leverage on the existing relationship that their affiates have build with their subscribers. Do do see you how much weight in term of leveraging this Ultimate Affiliate System can bring you?

Of course, in order for you to attract affiliates brokers, you need to have a mutli-tiers profit system in place. You see… everyone is motivated by money, other than relationship.

Today, i have read an interesting article on the newspaper.  It mentioned that Google on Tuesday has announced that it will allow web publishers to set a limit on the number of articles that people can read fro free through its search engine.

In other words and in more clarity, what is mean is that google publishers can now join a ‘First Click Free’ program where Google will index website content but prevents web surfers from having unrestricted access.  Their first click will lead them to the web page that they want to view, but subsequent attempts to read further based on a page quota will route them to a payment or registration pages.

Whow…. Do you know what they mean?

This simply mean that whoever have the most juicy and enticing content on the web will get to enjoy this program.  Why?  If you have great content that people want to read, they will be willing to exchange their name and email or even pay for more information.

And to think about it… isn’t this what we internet marketer used to do all the times?

At this point, it is not clear who will host the payment or even the registration page.  Will it be Google or the publisher?  My guess is Google.  If that is the case, there are few scenarios that i think can happen:

1)  The payment or the optin information will be share between Google and the publisher

2)   The payment or optin ifnormation is given solely to the the publisher.  Google will charge the publisher a monthly fees for enrolling in this program.

In my opinion, option two will be the most likely scenario.

Good for Google if this happen…. extra income for Google in addition to the pay per click advertising fees that they are enjoying now.

In view of this, i can envision that Internet marketers will be rolling out some cool and not so cool products on how to leverage on this new marketing system from Google.  Maybe they will come out with a software to help you to generate juicy content so that you can take full advantage of this new program?  I don’t know… but having live and breath in this industry for some time already, i can smell it is coming…
