The other night my wife put me in charge of coming up
with a movie that we could watch. After playing around
for a while with an online service similar to Netflix
I came up with a choice that would bring up some
memories of near death.
So I proceeded to lug my laptop downstairs and ask
if she wanted to watch Soul Surfer, to which my
10 year old daughter pipes in YES, YES, YES!
My wife was not all in at first, but decided to
go along as the kid was excited to watch this story
about a young teenage girl who had her arm tore off
my a shark while surfing in Hawaii.
This is based on a true story, so of course we knew
the main line. We had known about it for some time
as the story was all over the news when it happened.
The most amazing thing about it all, is that she never
really gave up on her desire to be a competitive surfer.
Yeah she stuggled, but then again, who doesn’t at times.
But trying to do something after a major trauma is
extemely commendable in such a short period of time.
This girl is a survivor because she never gave up.
She could have easily seen the fact that you can’t
be a great swimmer with only one arm.
She could have seen that she could not do a push up
on the board while being tossed by the ocean.
She could have easily seen that her body was totally
out of balance with one less appendage.
You know what though…
She saw none of that!
She saw herself getting right back up on the board.
Was it a struggle. Damn right it was, but she was
determined.
Regardless of what happens to you in your struggles
to make it in your business, how you see the future
playing before you is of utmost importance.
Having the proper mindset is your basepoint and this
is what this girl had.
So what does that have to do with my almost dying?
Well back in 1999, I was living in the Solomon Islands,
in the South Pacific as a Peace Corps Volunteer.
I was there as a science teacher (and math as well) for
two years and we liked to spear fish! Talk about a rush!
After a 20 minute walk down to our dugout canoe, it was
another 15 or so minutes paddle down the river to get to
the mouth where we would head over to the reef to see
what we could catch.
This time however was a little different as we got our
fellow teacher to take us in a motorized fiberblass
canoe so we could go outside the reef and throw out
a line. That’s us here with me on the right with
some Barracuda and snapper that we caught litterally
within minutes.
We wanted to spear fish as well and that is when the fun
began. If you consider near death experiences that is.
Now just to give you a little more background, we saw
sharks just about everytime we went out. These small
3-4 foot reef sharks would typically take off as soon
as we came around a reef corner and saw them.
So as we were spear fishing this day we ended up finding
a morey eel, so why not try to catch it and see what it
tastes like. The locals would eat anything, so we
knew it would not go to waste.
One spear in and it gets exciting. You can imagine it
was pretty pissed off to have just been stabbed by a spear.
A little puff of what looks like blood coming out from the
reef as the eels basically tore part of its tails off
as it struggled to get free from the spear.
One Shark….and not your typical reef shark, but this one
looks bigger than me and I stand 6’2″ tall.
He was circling me, my buddy and the eel, trying to figure
what was going on and assessing the situation because
of the sent of blood.
So my buddy is trying to get the eel out (as he was
speared again in the meantime) and I am watching the one
shark with my spear at the ready.
Two Sharks…now we have a mirror image of the first shark
circling us almost in opposite of the first one. Crap!
This is not looking good for us. Get us the “F” out of here.
Thank god for our buddy with the motorized canoe on this day.
Any wrong move and/or distress from us could have brought
these two sharks to a feeding frenzy on the two giant red-
heads swimming in their land.
We made it out safe of course and even ended up being able
to hook and pull the eel out without a scratch on our bodies
but with a definite respect for the unknown of the deep.
And yes, we did go back the following week and many times
after that to fish, because we saw ourselves being successful.
No one should go out with the mindset that they are going to
get eaten by a shark, though in the back of your mind you
need to know it can happen.
Being prepared is the best way to combat this. Having a plan
of action is what you need for the worst case scenario in
addition to the best case scenario.
So just like our Soul Surfer. Realize that no matter what
happens you can find a way to get back up on your feet
and be successful. If it is a struggle at first, expect this
and know it will get easier.
The other thing to remember is you can do it all on your own
or you can seek guidance from others who have been there.
So take action now and get yourself back up. Do something that
helps others be able to help themselves…Wait a minute, that’s
one of the main goals of the Peace Corps.
You can do it on your own or use a system that works. My buddy
Daegan Smith has been through it all and is a leader among
leader whose Maximum Leverage program gets you started
making the right moves.
Don’t let the sharks round up on you, but make sure you have that
safety boat on the side waiting to pick you up when you are down.
Come for a ride on Daegan Smith’s Ship.

It was only a matter of time. The web was going to end!
Now how the hell can that be as the web is seemingly growing non stop these days with everyone and their brother thinking that they can make it here.
Read how here in this new Report released this morning: http://yourreviewguru.com/end-of-the-web
Well if you follow the cycles, it is bound to happen. Many companines exist and one comes out alive. Think Wal Mart and Home Depot. Now I know some are against the machine and will not step foot into these locations, so don’t get all emotional on me in the comment section. The same is happening online. Think Amazon.com! They have everything you can every need and not every need to visit another website again. Is this “The end of the web?”
I have been a student of Ryan Deiss for a while now and he just put out a report this morning (don’t worry, nothing for sale at this point) which is 24 pages long. It took a short while to read through with some parts making sense like the change of event from many companies to few with cycles, while other parts were eye opening.
Now as a small business owner, you have to think what the heck am I doing to get more traffic to my site. The big guys are killing me, so to speak. You can have an “if I can’t beat em, join em” attitude and Ryan discusses this as well. I personally started to make an app for my Lacrosse website, as everyone is now looking for the best app. “Do they have an app for that?” Perhaps this is where you will be able to take the next wave of internet success.
Whether you are new or seasoned to the online marketing world, I suggest taking a few minutes to check out Ryan Deiss’ new report (no sense listening to a Review Guru huh!) and see what you think yourself.

I have just put together a report on 6 easy ways to get traffic to your websites this afternoon. Check out my new website at BarefootDesigners.com and get the full report there. It is geared towards, but not limited to new business owners, newbies in the online marketing world, people looking to develop their social media profiles, and people 1-3 years in business who may be struggling to make things work online with what they know so far.
What may seem basic to the more seasoned gurus with outsourcing crews around the world, those new to at home work, entrepreneurial experiences or affiliate sales might need a little more direction in what they need to do to succeed. After you get the report, find a quite place and time to read it though! I want you to come back here and leave a comment on what you think after reading it the first time and then I want to have you read it again a few days later to see what you have accomplished and come back and leave another reply with the updates and improvements you have made.
So head on over to BarefootDesigners.com now and check out the 6 easy ways to get traffic to your websites this afternoon.
Last summer I had the opportunity to take part in the Social Media Money System, which was an online course taught by Ryan Deiss and Perry Belcher. These two Texans were not afraid to lay it down and tell it like it is. They were personable, highly knowledgeable and funny as all get go at times. Whever I get an email from either of these two, I am sure to open it up. With other marketers, it might not be so sure I spent time reading their emails.
When Ryan Deiss announces he was coming out with three rocking reports/softwares, I was excited to find out what they were going to be.
First, Ryan came out with the Perpetual Traffic Formula Report, which was a quick easy read, that went in to details in regards to the changes that Google was going through over the past couple years in regards to their algorithms and how they rank sites. One of the key gems that Ryan Deiss brings about in the Perpetual Traffic Formula is that “Activity + Content + Links = Perpetual Traffic!” What Ryan Deiss means is that you do need to put some effort into your business in order to get people to come check you out.
Don’t get fooled that this is some get rich quick scheme. This is a course where you need to put an effort in to get the results you want. One of my favorite quotes is “You get out of it what you put into it” and this holds true with all internet and online business ventures. There is not going to be some magic pill or “business in a box” that you plug in and set it to go. You need to take care of it in order for it to grow.
Secondly, Ryan Deiss released his Cherry Picker Software. WOW! This easy to use software links to the internet with a term or keyword phrase of choice and within seconds starts pumping out websites who are ranking for these keywords. Websites that contain keyword rich domains often do well, but they are not always the end all of being successful. I actually checked a keyword for a lacrosse product of mine and am ranked #1 for in Google and it is ironically with only 3 pages indexed on my site. I have had some experience in social media (as mentioned in the beginning of the article) and have spread out my links a bit as well which has helped this effort.
Using the Cherry Picker software though allowed me to see other sites I was in competition with. Now why is this important….Because I did most of this without paying anything for this rank…I did not really use PPC for this, but instead using the right words allowed me to see what people were looking for.
Finally, Ryan Deiss sent out the Authority Codes Report in which he supplied some great ideas in regards to getting .EDU and .GOV backlinks to your sites. As Ryan Deiss put it, these are the sites that give you great “Link Juice!” The main idea to remember that a link is a link, but keeping in mind that some links carry more juice, as Ryan Deiss would put it compared to others. He gives a set of codes for these .EDU, .GOV, .ORG and .COM sites that allow you to be able to gather highly ranking pages on google and other search engines (using a Firefox plugin, where YES, you do need to do a little work) where you can join in a conversation and be able to leave behind your contact info and of course the infamous link you want to get sending back to your site.
I played around for about 2 hours doing the whole process of reading the report and searching with the codes and was able to find a few sites to make comments on (be sure not to spam and keep your comments relative to the blog post). I also focused again on only the lacrosse field but was excited to visualize using it for other niches I am involved in as well.
As a final overview, getting these three pieces alone is enough to get your site headed in the right direction, but is only a small piece of the puzzle. Ryan Deiss, does of course intent to sell you a great product that helps to “increase your Belief” in the work he has done over the last 9 months in putting this together for you. His trainings are well organized and planned to lead you in the right direction towards achieving successes in your business. It is up to you to determine if the investment in the course and yourself is worth it. For one, I think it is! Please Post a comment below on what you think about these great programs! Being in a community and sharing your comments and leaving an appropriate backlink here is working the “Link Juice” for yourself right here and now before you even go check the software and reports out yourself.
