You’ve probably heard of the Law of Attraction. This is the idea that you attract what you think about. If you really want something and truly believe it’s possible, you’ll get what you want – or the idea that your thoughts determine (not influence, but determine) how your life goes. Think positive and positive things happen to you. Think negative and … OK so much for the BS.
The Law of Distraction
This law really works. If you think you are going to make big bucks in internet marketing or your home business by trying everything that comes along, you won’t. Simple, the Law of Distraction dictates that the more things you are trying to do, the more distracted you become and the less productive. You end up accomplishing nothing. Well, something – you kept yourself busy being distracted. And you aren’t going to make any money!
The Lesson
If you are constantly buying or trying the latest product launch, internet marketing ebook, home-based business opportunity, webinar, marketing course, coaching program, internet marketing scam, etc., and you have them stacked up like cord wood on your bookshelf and your computer is so full that it is about to throw up on your keyboard, you have become a victim of the Law of Distraction.
You’ll have a lot business ‘expenses’ and no business ‘income’.
I could not emphasize this too strongly because I know from experience. Try one thing, one program, one coach, and stick with that one thing until it works at least a little, or until you thoroughly understand why it doesn’t work for you.
In the process, you may find the kind of internet business that really fits you instead of squeezing yourself into a mold that doesn’t.
I‘m just testing this out. You might want to take a look to see if it’s something that interests you. You have to sign up for an account but it’s basically FREE.
In essence it’s sort of like Adsense but for Clickbank products. You insert CBClicks code on your website and it displays Clickbank products for which you could get paid if someone buys from your link. That’s all I know at this point.
You design the code to fit your website using the tools provided at CBClicks.com. Here’s what you will see – and what I used to design the ad that appears below. And the banner above came from the Marketing Tools menu on the CBClicks website.
If I can do this, I think you can too. You might even get paid by Clickbank!

Can you "think" your way to internet marketing success? Jim Edwards apparently thinks you can. He’s giving his ebook, appropriately entitled, "Guaranteed Success Thinking" for FREE.
What’s the catch? Jim would like you to buy "5 Steps to Getting Anything You Want" for $97 plus shipping & handling. And there are lots of links to his other products in the FREE ebook too.
Although this is another example of giving away something for FREE as a marketing strategy to get you to buy something not free, you can’t hurt yourself by reading what Jim has to say about thinking your way to success. Go ahead and give it a read.
A few weeks ago I got an unsolicited phone call from the staff of Russell Brunson, the famous internet marketer. It went like this.
The Screener – Gatekeeper 1
The first call was from a screener, a person who treats you nicely and asks some leading questions to see if you might be a candidate for the coaching program. If the screener decides that you are willing to "make the effort to be successful", the screener passes you on to a manager for more detailed investigation of your qualifications for the coaching program. To this point, no specific amount of money has been mentioned. The screener never wants scares you off with any specific dollar figure. But you are willing to invest some time and money aren’t you? "You sound like a good candidate for our program so I am going to have my manager call you and give you the details."
The Manager – Gatekeeper 2
The manager treats you nicely and pretends to be your friend for some fun conversation. This person explains what OPM is – Other People’s Money as if you won’t be spending you own money (Please don’t reveal this SECRET until the end of the story: OPM is generally a CREDIT CARD). Then you start talking turkey. Here’s the deal. For a measly $15,000, we are going to teach you how to be a successful internet marketer and we are going to hold your hand until you make your original investment back even if that takes … however, long it takes. And we want to get you up and running quickly so you can make a sufficient profit to pay the monthly bill on the OPM so you don’t have to use your own money (Please don’t reveal this SECRET until the end of the story: the profit you make to pay for the OPM is YOUR MONEY).
Sticker Shock
Whoa! $15,000! I’m just a newbie starting out and that’s not in my ballpark – yet. What? (more…)
Sylvie Fortin continues her no-holds-barred expose of internet marketing sins. BUT she also points a finger at you (and me) too for generously forking over our limited cash resources to the sharks greedily gobbling up our money in return for not much of anything except empty promises.

Destructive Personality Traits To Stay Away From
Part 2 of Internet Marketing Sins zeros in on personality traits that you want to avoid in developing your internet business.
Me Too Marketer
"Me Too" is a copycat. He won’t be able to help you because he hasn’t got a clue what he’s doing.
Piggy Back Marketers
Their whole focus is on attacking the marketer on a personal level.
Lazy Ass Marketers
They don’t take the time and put in the effort to market a quality product.
Cult Leaders
Of all the internet marketing sins, it is the most important subject because It applies to every single one of us. Cult leaders do not care if the free information they give away is actually useful to your business. They often deliberately hold back one critical step that keeps the majority of their followers dependent on them forever.
Guru Bashers
Guru Bashers are people who are often struggling to be successful, and blame the gurus when they are unable to achieve success.
It’s FREE – It’s Recommended – Get it!
PS If you have gotten the impression that Sylvie Fortin knows what she is talking about, I recommend that you watch this one-hour video tutorial from Success Chef. If you are a beginner, I would say that this is a must-see for you. You will get a load of invaluable knowledge in the first 45 minutes of this video. If you don’t want a membership in Success Chef (discounted beta pre-launch life-time membership price of $2,497), skip the rest of the video.
If you think that you missed the incredible FREE training of the August 30 Day Challenge, well, you haven’t. It’s starting again today. But it’s even better because now you can proceed at your own pace. In fact, you can start whenever you want.
Need more time?
If you need more than 30 days to absorb what could be an overwhelming amount of useful training for a beginner, you got it. Take your time because Ed Dale and colleagues have arranged to make this material available as long as you want it.
Highly Recommended
I couldn’t recommend this program more highly for newbies. It’s the training you’ve been looking for and you can’t beat the price. But please do all 30 days to get the most benefit.
Due to technical difficulties (that beginners almost never have to worry about), it didn’t happen today as you surely know if you were waiting to get Stomping the Search Engines 2. But that may be a benefit because you’ll get some things that weren’t included in the original offer. Keep at it.
Everybody and her sister is telling you that you gotta have Stomping the Search Engines 2, and that it’s FREE! Well, what can I say – I agree it could be a big help to you. And the price is right. So I’m recommending that you get this package.
Just remember: it actually is NOT free, you have to pay some shipping and handling fee, plus you have to sign up for a free trial to a monthly subscription to the Net Effect. That could cost you $39/month unless you cancel in 30 days. If you don’t like the Net Effect or you just don’t want it for whatever reason – CANCEL.
