EXCELLENCE can be attained if you - CARE more than others think
is wise - RISK more than others think is safe - DREAM more than
others think is practical - and EXPECT more than others think is
possible.

For all our new subscribers who don't know, I have a pet
cockatiel. His name is ET because he looked exactly like a
little extraterrestrial (as in the movie of the same name) for
several weeks after he hatched. He'll be five-years-old, the
end of March.
ET was hand-raised and hand-fed from the age of nine-days-old.
He owns me, my life and everything around me. At least,
according to him! I finally had to ban him from my desk to get
any work done.
He can whistle the Andy Griffith theme song, Yankee Doodle
Dandy, Old MacDonald had a Farm and Jingle Bells. But, he
flatly refuses to talk. Probably just as well. Hard telling
what he might pick up around here.
I've always loved birds, but I loved them outside - where they
belong. I still can't believe this arrogant little pile of
feathers not only stole my heart, but even got his own bedroom!
A baby cockatiel is on the opening of the video I've linked to
below. But first, here's some email I received about it:
------------
I have been laboring under the delusion that Pet Smart
respected animals. The PETA video shocked, disgusted, and
angered me. I sent the email and would gladly sign a petition.
Until now, Pet Smart was a regular shopping venue - that's over.

I am sending this to everyone in my address book.........Just
too hard to put into words the horror the animals are going
through. Sure hope God is watching!
Jean
If you missed the video these emails are referring to, you can
see it here:
And, please let PetSmart know how you feel about it at the
bottom of the page.
Sheeeeez - sometimes I wonder about my wandering mind! I do
something I'm completely invested in. Then, I change a few
things, and that project somehow falls by the wayside.
Last week, while reading iCop member Steve Brunkhorst's
newsletter, Achieve! "60-Second Nuggets of Inspiration", I saw something that had
happened to.
I had promoted The Hunger Site for years and have NO idea when
it slipped through the cracks.
Please visit and click to help a starving person. It costs you
nothing! Also, please sign up for their daily reminders so you
can remember to click every day!
Every 36 SECONDS, someone DIES of starvation. That's
disgraceful when there is so much food thrown out in this
country (USA) alone. I'm not even asking you for money ...
Just take 36 seconds of YOUR time daily to go to a web site and
click a button so someone can eat:
An iCop member sent me the following message. I'm sending it on
to you with the same wishes.
My Wish for You in 2008
May peace break into your house and may thieves come to steal
your debts.
May the pockets of your jeans become a magnet of $100 bills.
May love stick to your face like Vaseline, and may laughter
assault your lips!
May your clothes smell of success like smoking tires.
May happiness slap you across the face and may your tears be
that of joy.
May the problems you had forget your home address!
In simple words ...
May 2008 be the best year of your life!
Pam Jones

Yet it is the basics of life, and business, that create reliable
and predictable results.
Today many are having a hard time finding true success online.
Everyday I hear from people who make a few dollars here or get a
check there but have yet to find that stable, reliable passive
income stream they were hoping for.
When I dig a little deeper into their situation, I find they
have three things in common. These are the common denominators
of their demise online.
1. They believe the hype, falling for the lie that others will
do the work for them and they need make no effort.
2. They are constantly looking for the next big thing, focusing
on products and programs that are in pre-launch or are so new
that their success simply cannot be predicted.
3. They spend all their money on one program and have nothing
left when that program fails them.
But the #1 thing they fail to do is this -- they do not begin
focusing on the basics NOW and put time on their side.
I've actually had people cry on the phone when I asked them
where they thought they would be today if they had only done a
few basic things when they first came online.
Understand that I'm NOT casting stones here - I fell for the
same things, wasting money and time I could not afford to lose
when I first came online.
So, what can you do NOW that is rock-solid, proven to work, and
will put time on your side?
What can you do today that will help your efforts tomorrow and
every day the sun rises?
Now is the time to think about what you are doing online and
ensure that you are using EVERY tool to it's maximum advantage.
One of those tools, perhaps the most powerful, is email.
You email every day right now, and email is the tool that is
easiest to learn to use.
So that's where you start.
Use this short checklist to ensure that you are taking full
advantage of the power of email and, by so doing, making time
your ally, not your adversary.
Fast, easy, and free, the consistent use of email in the follow
six areas will yield powerful results for you.
Whether it's a simple as a one-time 'thank you' or as elaborate
as a 50 message follow up system, customers love to know you
care. At a minimum, send one message thanking customers for
every order.
To power up this idea, create a follow up system using your
favorite autoresponder and offer your customer more chances to
buy. Keep messages short and no more than two per week.
Do you offer a product that takes a bit of learning to use?
Teach your customers how to get the benefits they deserve from
your product or service via email.
Keep messages on topic and separate your follow up series into
bite-size learning pieces. These follow up messages can bring
your refund rate to near zero ... a good thing indeed.
How often do *you* buy the first thing you see? Comparison
shopping is the way of the Internet, and getting prospective
customers to return to your site is the challenge.
A pre-sale series is the answer!
This is actually very easy to do. Just write down the top ten
reasons why someone should buy from you, then put each in a
follow up message. Send one a day until they are all delivered.
Offer the series to everyone who visits your site and let time
do the selling work for you!
Our experience has been that up to 40% of visitors will take
your free information if you do a good job of selling the idea.
Use email to deliver insider information on special bargains,
limited time pricing, and more. Much like a coupon sheet in
your local newspaper, selling advertising in this type of email
is a breeze.
Want to know THE secret to building a loyal mailing list? Give
the people what they want!
People love offbeat news, especially when it has a connection to
their lives.
For the *best* example of this on the Net today visit: thisistrue.com
You'll love it!
* Announce Special Events
Email is everywhere and tremendously effective. Don't let the
"sky is falling" crowd convince you that it's not.
Start to USE email in your business today and you will make more
money with less effort in the months to come.
And THAT is a beautiful thing indeed!

At a southern university, students in the psychology program were attending their first class on emotional extremes. "Just to establish some parameters," said the professor to the student from Arkansas, "what is the opposite of joy?" "Sadness," said the student. "And the opposite of depression?" he asked of the young lady from Oklahoma. "Elation," she said. "And you sir," he said to the young man from Texas, "what about the opposite of woe?" The Texan replied, "Sir, I believe that would be 'giddy up'."
