Rolling with ShoeMoney…

shoemoney adsensecheckSo who the hell is ShoeMoney?

He (and his empire) are one of the best known internet marketers on the planet, and he’s shouting (Aussie for “paying for something”) an awesome trip to the Affiliate Summit West in Las Vegas next year!

And I want to roll with the Shoe for 3 days of learning, connecting and having fun!

I’ve been trying my hand at internet marketing in its various forms since 2010 and have actually made a little cash, but the big bux comes from building a network of like-minded professional marketers, and living in Australia makes it a bit hard to get those types of connections, so this is an awesome chance to meet and network with the guys on the “inside”.

And after watching ShoeMoney’s presentation last year (even though he was about to puke) I learned an awesome lesson in how one man CAN make a difference when you put your mind to it and make something happen!

Yes the parties will be fab, yes the blackjack hand will be exciting, yes having never been to Las Vegas; a 5 star trip will be awesome, but the best part of wining this gig is the networking opportunities!

Having said that, it’s also not all about the money.  Shoe donates 10’s of thousands of dollars to charities every year and being able to contribute to this effort in 2011 would be something I’d be proud to be involved with.

I started my own business last year, so have been living hand to mouth for the last 18 months but it’s been worth it!

So getting a chance to hang out with real entrepreneurs who care about others would be totally awesome!

I won’t even mention the Playboy Mansion party – ooops I just did….can you imagine hanging with Hef himself?  Wow!  What an awesome giveaway!

Shoe, I’m older than you (and probably all of your staff) so maybe with age comes some lessons for you as well….but I still party like a fiend to the chagrin of my peers…;)

Cheers Mate and looking forward to rolling with ShoeMoney in Las Vegas next year…nice…

Why Do Butterflies Seem So Joyous?

butterflies and personal developmentBecause They Left a Part of Themselves Behind…

There was a gorgeous butterfly floating around the plants on my patio yesterday and it was a truly joyous thing to watch as it floated and fluttered around from plant to plant – I always thought they should be called “flutter-bys” in my humble opinion.

And as I watched it flutter around I realized just how happy it must be to have finally left behind the old body which was tied to the ground and is now moving wistfully through the universe in a completely new form.

And of course I then thought how we too can also become like a butterfly and free ourselves from our dross old body and state of mind which weighs us down and keeps us in a state of unhappiness.

I am going back to the USA for Christmas and have spoken to several of my friends who are not in a very good place both financially and mentally.

There seems to be a common depression amongst the blue-collar workers I know, at least in Florida, and it’s unsettling for me to learn of their demise, unhappiness and utter despair.

So my philosophy will be to “live like a butterfly” and I will suggest to everyone to do whatever is required to change their world into a more joyous and light-filled place.

You do have the ability to change any situation when you release the fear and make a decision to change.

There are no limits to “buts” as in “but I don’t have any money” or “but I don’t have a college education” or even the “but I can’t leave my home”.

The reality is if your home is providing you with no options to find employment in your trade, then you basically have two options:

  1. Learn a new skill
  2. Move to somewhere you can apply your trade

I’m a big fan of learning new skills and I moved to the other side of the world, so my story should resonate with anyone who is sitting there in a state of absolute misery; get out and take a course or look for opportunities outside of your normal suburb/state/country.

butterfly change

The butterfly leaves the dross behind and learns to fly halfway through its life.

Use this humble creature as a model and impetus for you to make changes in your life no matter how old you are if you are not happy!

You can leave your doubts, worries and frustration behind and replace these unhealthy mental habits with healthy mental habits like faith, hope and joy.

You too can float and flutter your way to a new life when you release that which no-longer serves you…
