Life is already perfect

And that just means there's always room for improvement.

Lester Levenson found this "strangest secret" out when he discovered the Release Technique. Of course, he was about to die, and that gave him every reason to just sit down and figure things out. 

Multiple coronaries and other organ failures were imminent. With the medical technology of that day, they simply told him to go home, get in bed, and stay there. Days to live, all that dire stuff.

Having been active all his life, the solution didn't sit well. So he got a chair, defied his doctor's orders, and sat down to think. 3 months later, he had solved the whole scene of all life, and was in a very high, enlightened state. Oh yes, his physical ailments were cured.

What he found was simple: all possible solutions and resolutions to any problem are already present. 

This shows up in various ways, such as the Law of Attraction (remember "The Secret" DVD?) Of course, they just got it from earlier classic authors - as I talk about all the time.

But you can believe anything you want - and those beliefs create your world around you every second of every day. 

Once you let go of the ones which don't forward your progress, your own native perfection, then you can have anything you want just show up in that life of yours. 

What may become the game is educating those around you that their life is like this - that they can improve their world into the perfect one they've always wanted. All they have to do is change their mind - or change how they use it (or both.)

I went over this in some detail in "Freedom Is" and now again with "Winning Your Infinite Freedom."

Earl Nightingale described the attitude you can have toward life as "calm, cheerful expectancy." And gave a 30-day program to develop this as a habit with his "Strangest Secret" recording. 

But how you live your life is up to you. 

It's already perfect as you've wanted it up to this point...

Day 27 - Natural Laws of Marketing (but you always knew...)

Just as there is gravity, so are there Natural Laws of Marketing.

Probably no one has ever specifically talked about these before - but they exist, nonetheless.

Of course it would take someone with 20 years of experience as a counselor and a Masters in Metaphysics to make this leap.

While this isn't in The Online Sunshine Plan directly, I've already given you one of the freebies which heads down this path: The Power of Creative Selling, by Prevette.

Another would be Wallace Wattle's "Science of Getting Rich", in addition to Napoleon Hill's "Think and Grow Rich." Their underlying text would be Charles Haanel's "Master Key System". And we could trace this back to Indian and Egyptian texts, right back to Polynesian Huna (who's legends say they helped build the Pyramids and establish the early Egyptian social order). [Now of course, you can find all these in various versions - I'm giving you my Lulu links as an example of how its possible to take public domain works and possibly earn extra income online.]

When we say Natural Laws, we mean to say that there are regular recurrences and explanations for things. These are Laws which cross over from one application to others, are present in all "sciences" and studies. So it's not so surprising that they show up in Marketing.

Now, in no particular order, let's see what we can find:

Golden Rule

I've mentioned this one before. As you treat others is how you can expect them to treat you.  This is found in every major religion and philosophy in one form or another.

This is based on probably the most basic Huna principle, which is why it works:
"The world is what you think it is. "
Or, paraphrased, the world around you is as you consider it to be - or as you create it. This also hinges on the 2nd principle:
"There are no limits." 
Meaning that there is nothing separating any of us. So when you treat someone else well, you are treating yourself well, also.
It's the third principle which is distinctively applied to marketing:
"Energy flows where attention goes."
You can see this as the key theme of "Think and Grow Rich". Hill says to get a "BURNING DESIRE" about what you want to accomplish and then you will get the inspiration to do what you need to in order to help it show up. The other 12 parts of this philosophy just contribute to this one point. And this is the secret of having a "vision" or Covey's "7 Habits" and his emphasis on a company's mission statement. Wallace Wattles also goes into this, which book is what started Rhonda Byrne in her quest for data that produced "The Secret" DVD.

The Law of Attraction

Is more or less the same thing, or a consolidation of the above. Whatever you hold in your mind is what will show up for you. This law also shows up in both Testaments of the Bible and all through various philosophies as well - though not as well documented as the Golden Rule. Because those Huna principles actually cover a great deal of territory.

Here's the complete Huna list:

1. IKE - our ideas create our reality.
2. KALA - there are no limits.
3. MAKIA - energy flows where attention goes.
4. MANAWA - now is the moment of power.
5. ALOHA - to love is to be happy with.
6. MANA - all power comes from within.
7. PONO - effectiveness is the measure of truth.

 The fullest definition of these is by Serge Kahili King, as quoted on one of my sites.

And I've found that they explain how other Natural Laws work - although I expect you to simply test them out for yourself.

Inner Peace - "Feel Good"

I've earlier brought up the point of asking yourself, "Does this bring me greater peace - or make my life simpler?"

Of course, you can trace this back to that 5th principle above: "To Love is to be happy with."

During the course of these 30 days, and the stresses I created for myself, I was using my usual tools of Releasing and meditative review (See my "Freedom Is - (period.)" book-lessons and book.)

And what came up is that the primary and underlying common purpose the vast majority of us share is to always "feel good." And we could go into quite a discussion of how to remove artificial emotions from your life, which are not actually feelings per se. (Just read that book above.) You could also find this through all the lessons of "Get Your Self Scam Free" (or buy your own copy of the book...) This is where you would see that the main drive we all have it toward pleasure and away from pain.

If you understand that the purpose of Love is actually creative, then you can know that all which is bad that is happening to you is simply a lack of creation on your part. It does no good to be critical of others (and yes, I'm still working on this point myself), as this just makes you feel bad - as we are all connected.

And if someone around you is being critical, you simply have to let that go - as nothing to do with you. (And how to release or "let go" is covered in the "Freedom Is" book linked above.)

Real-Life Applications

The next point is to work constantly to improve the lives of others. Because if you want something better for yourself, it's obvious that you need to work at helping others find it first. This is paying it forward in advance. A simple, logical extension of the above.

When you focus on something you want to improve in your environment (Vision) and then work to help others find that (Law of Attraction), you then will find it showing up in your own life - or an inspiration of how to make it so (Golden Rule).

This of course explains my complete effort to "data dump" all the knowledge I have to you. Even though I don't necessarily apply all of this to my own online business efforts, it is perhaps because I have been too busy researching this all out in order to leave a path others could follow. (Or I just need to get busy with earning my own extra income online...)

As well, I mentioned I have another completely different path coming up. So I simply couldn't sit on all this data that would help others - it would affect my being able to get help in the immediate future, wouldn't it?

And so this rather different approach to marketing: finding your own purpose, finding the community which matches it, selecting or creating products which help that community, marketing them so others can find and use them to improve their lives, promoting them with regular fresh content which the search engines and social media can use.

In short, marketing by the concept of win-win-win. Everyone wins.

This of course brings you greater peace - and makes you feel good.

- - - -

A final freebie is one of these compilations I've created to have all the vital references in a single spot. But with today's essay, I think you could more readily use this to improve your efforts in earning extra income online.

It's named "Conceive, Believe, Achieve" and has James Allen's "As a Man Thinketh", Wallace Wattles' "Science of Getting Rich" and Napoleon Hill's "Think and Grow Rich" - all in one volume of almost 600 pages.

Any assignment today would be to consider if the above laws apply to your operation and whether they might be able to improve what you are doing so you are more profitable to yourself and others. As usual, reject what I say completely until and if you can prove that it works for you in improving your own life.

Day 10 - Tools, their Care and Use in Marketing

I was all set to get into yet another subject today, which would be leading us down into more material and tools - when I stopped suddenly and realized a fault that The Online Sunshine Plan and its precursor all had embedded.

This is something ingrained in my own make-up which I've had to come to grips with.

Here's the solution, then I'll tell you more about the problem:

Surround yourself with only those items which make your life more peaceful, simpler, or both.

Today's lesson is fairly short, as most go. Just to emphasize that point above.

Learning Internet Marketing is like paying a garbage truck to empty it's complete content on your lawn so you can sort through it to find the great stuff people threw out.

Remember, you paid the guy to do this to your lawn.

The point is that there is a lot of stuff out there. Capital S-t-u-f-f.

And you may recall that I said from the get-go that the bulk (97% or better) of the material that's been published on Internet Marketing (which includes my own books and this blog) are just crap, BS, shinola, garbage, nonsense.

The reason I said this and included my own material in that statement - was to get you to look at what you are studying.

It's worthless unless you can make it work for you.

There is no sense in compiling a bunch of stuff onto your hard-drive and then leaving it sit there. Or in filling your mind with a lot of useless facts that help no one else (unless you can win trivia-game prizes to entertain others.)

So a couple of very smart people each gave me one piece of that advice up there.

And they work together, as they are related.

I work constantly to boil down data into the underlying system they are based on. Once you know the rules, you can work out a strategy to win any and all games.

And is why I worked so long with my "Go Thunk Yourself" series. All self-help is based on Natural Laws. When you know them, you can get unlimited personal ability and anything/everything else you could possibly want or need. True.

So while you are working at learning this stuff called Internet Marketing, take some time to throw stuff away occasionally. (Or throw it away to begin with and then take it back only when you've proved it's useful and effective for you.)

Ask yourself these questions:

1. Does using this make my life simpler?
2. Does using this may my life more peaceful?

And when you get this down to a second-nature habitual reflection, then your life will become even easier and more direct.

I've worked to give all this to you in a format which can be rejected easily and is also logically laid out - so that you can accept the logic or refute it.

So take the time to day to reflect a bit and review what we've gone over. See if all of this stuff works for you. Check to see if you've tested everything for yourself. Throw out anything that doesn't work or is too complicated to use.

And tell me what you find.

Day 01 - Welcome! Some Ground Rules...

Day 01 - Ground Rules

Glad to have you all here. This should be interesting for all concerned.

There are just a few pointers to go over:

1. We are here to share information and get feedback. So let's keep it politely interesting. If you wouldn't like to be referred to in that manner, then...

2. I don't expect you to buy anything. And that includes buying what I say works. The only way something works is if you test it out for yourself. (Of course, if you want to get copies of my books or sign up through my links for some program or other, I'd be more than happy to accept the commission or royalty.) But this program isn't here to get you to do anything except help you get information on how to get started earning online income.

3. The material on this blog is licensed under Creative Commons - meaning that you can use it for what you want (except commercially without license) as long as you share it similarly - here's the blurb:

Online Secrets Review by Robert C. Worstell is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License.

Based on a work at onlinesecretsreview.blogspot.com.

 Now, all that said, the intent of this is to enable you to also develop habits to create your own content. I'll go over in more detail about these later - but know these 2 things: 

• Content is King on the Internet.
• Habits are made in 30 days (both good and bad) and can be re-made in 30 days.

Suggested here is that you subscribe to receive this in your email, so you don't miss any. As I can, I'll set each individual lesson up as a PDF, though that might lag, as getting the content up on the blog comes first - not polishing it until it shines as midnight.

And the polish is where you come in as well. Leave a comment as often as you can and help the discussion along. Contribute as you can and point out anything and everything you think is questionable or could be improved. We'll hash this stuff out as we go.

The reason I've asked you here is to point out where I go over the average newbie's head. I've been doing this for a decade, so may have lost track of how to set this up simply enough that anyone could follow it.

Now stuff that's common knowledge like how to set up a Wordpress blog, I won't get into. Mainly because there are just too many good tutorials on this. I'll hit the highlights learned from my use/misuse/abuse of that platform, but not what plug-ins I suggest you get - other than in broad terms.

However, there will be numerous freebie materials which will take you more than just 30 minutes a day to go through. It's all this stuff I've been hoarding all these years, after I went through and found what works (yes, my hard-drives are a mess, but they are chock full of goodies.)

2 books this is based on

You all probably know the 2 books I've written some years back:

• Online Sunshine Plan
• Get Your Self Scam Free

And you should have a copy to hand for use. Both were written (and revised from earlier versions) based on hard-lived experience with real-life scammers - who really, factually didn't give a damn about people they were screwing over.

But we won't rehash this here - other than to say it was a great learning experience and I not only got my money back, but helped some other people get theirs back as well. These two books were the result of this, and will tell you the basics of what you need to know to succeed with any online venture.

This 30-day program is a successor to these books (and my wind up being a book on it's own, I haven't decided yet.)

So if you don't already have a copy, you can pick one up from Lulu, (where you can also get the printed versions) or visit the below blogs/sites which cover this material:

• http://midwestjournalpress.storeblogs.com/online-sunshine-plan-book-2
• http://robertworstell.com/lessons/get-scam-free.php

Credits

I've been around the pike more than once, and have attended many courses online. Some good, some not so good. One which has evolved over the years (since 2005) is what is now known as The Challenge, created by an Australian Ed Dale. It's a free sign-up and once you are in, you are able to proceed at your own pace. They do a decent job of taking you through all the steps you need to in order to figure out how to find a product, promote it, and earn income with it.

Practically, this would be a good start for anyone. It's laced with affiliate links and has just a few places where you'd have to pay money to get going.

My exception to this is that I've worked out how to get almost everything figured out about how to start for nothing. Not that I haven't paid good money for certain products/services. But I intend to tell you right off how to get it done, how to save your time doing it, and then if there is a decent service or product that I've tried and recommend that will make your results much much better.

Additional to this is the benefit of working with this material for years. Not only do I know some professional short-cuts, but I also have a different take on what passes for how to get a site ranking and getting people to buy your product or services. It's simpler than most self-proclaimed "guru's" make it out to be.

- - - -

And that is more than enough for today. Of course, I reserve the right to change these things around if I find some material is better.

Assignment today is to get your copies of these books. And dust them off. 

Today's freebie: I put a short version of "Get Your Self Scam Free" up on Scribd a few years back - http://www.scribd.com/doc/24665551/Get-Yourself-Scam-Free-Handbook-for-Personal-Freedom

See you tomorrow, where we get into some meat about how to earn extra income online - based on how the Internet is set up and what makes or breaks online success - Natural Laws to be followed, that sort of thing...

UPDATE: I've been finding stuff here and there about these various subjects. It's been easiest for me to add these as comments. So do check for comments to get your latest updates. And also, I'm still alerted about comments here - so if you don't want to send me a personal email, then you can leave a comment.
