===========================================
Friday night was awesome with the girls from Stella’s House! These girls have been snatched from the hands of human traffickers.
And super fun to have Carrie Wilkerson and her daughter visit with our family for the weekend. Carrie has BIG plans for a book release to benefit Stella’s. Watch for it in August.
You know, the “internet marketing lifestyle” usually paints with a think brush of selfishness and self-interest. It cracks me up to see the sales pages of the flashy cars and mansions as those marketers speak directly to our greed.
BUT! BUT! BUT! There is no car or house that can match the smile of a young lady who says to you, “Thank you for rescuing me from human trafficking.” Or to hold a disabled, helpless orphan in your arms knowing that your internet business impacts that life.
THAT is the REAL internet marketing lifestyle (in my opinion). 
How do we get there?
By committing to and applying a Personal and Business Growth Strategy.
So….. did you complete your assignment form last issue??
ASSIGNMENT: Go to your book shelf. If you were a guest in your home what would you say you were interested in? What would you say you were really serious about?
Now look on your hard drive, how many product have you downloaded and never activated?
Develop YOUR PBGS
01:: Make a List of Areas Where You Need to Grow.
-Web mechanics?
-Online traffic sources?
-Affiliate marketing?
-Joint venture proposals?
-Eliminating procrastination?
-Gaining confidence?
-Time management?
Where do YOU need to grow?
02:: Budget for the Investment.
Stop unmeasured spending. Stop falling for the picture of the big house on the page.
Instead, plan to invest in resources and courses that will help you in your particular area of need.
(Commercial: Nicheology.com is a no-brainer. You get resources to sell and keep ALL the profits from. Niche research done for you. Affiliate markets selected for you. Monthly web mechanics tutorials. Monthly live webinar event for advanced internet marketing. Monthly live call where you get to ask YOUR questions. As far as an investment goes it cannot be matched in terms of quality and value. Feel free to explore the entire internet and prove me wrong on that. I know that’s bold, but I’m serious. And you get the entire archive!
“Paul, I cancelled my membership to 5 other sites. They were all more expensive than Nicheology and were not even close in terms of what I got with you. You’re blowing me away. It’s like being part of ten different sites. You’re saving me a bundle!!)
If you are not budgeting a minimum of $100 a month toward your online business education and equipping, you’re not serious about online business.
03:: Education and Results
Part of your investment should be education based. Simply learning more about a topic or issue.
Almost everyone in online business buys because they want THE answer. But some purchases should focus solely on intellectual breadth. You may not apply the information directly. You’re creating a vault of knowledge you can pull from and use at a later date.
Other investments should focus on actual results. If you purchase a tutorial on “How to Create Videos with Camtasia,” that’s an educational resource to be used not just stored mentally.
ASSIGNMENT: Make your list, budget for your investment and select resources for knowledge and for results.
OK, going to pack for Dallas. Spending the week coaching online entrepreneurs with my friends Carrie Wilkerson and Perry Lawrence. Then closing the week with a mastermind meeting. It’s all part of my PBGS!!!!!
Success is NOT an Accident,
Paul
P.S. Got something free and cool planned for the 100th issue of the Nicheology Profit Letter. A free tele-seminar on “Core Business.” We’ll be getting down to the essentials of REAL business. Not the fake stuff being pandered online today. Plus you will get to ask questions if you make it to the live call. More details soon.

Just 5 words:
Give and you will get!
Thanks Paul from a guy in Europe who sees a fair chance in achieving his dreams not only for himself but for others as well. I know so many people have been treated badly and I want to share my success with them. My idea is developing a product with Nicheology and when it makes money, simply give it to them as a present including my knowledge as advise for no money. I know that would have an impact on my friends lifes.

Hi Paul and Vonalda,
I’m just starting out. Please don’t feel offended. But I believe we can have it all.
My dream: To live 90/10
90% of my income goes to helping people and keep our planet viable for generations to come.
10% for my lifestyle—And that lifestyle is I fly First Class any time and as often as I want.
I believe this can only be done with Internet Marketing. Now, I want to prove it to myself with the help of Nicheology and a few other member sites I below to.

Paul,
This couldn’t have come at a better time for me. I found myself wasting so much money so I pared down to the really important and necessary stuff (including Nicheology!).
Thanks for the kick in the pants and thanks for showing me it isn’t just about the “stuff” — it’s about what’s in your heart!
Keep up all the good work,
Diana

Paul I’ll just come out and say it. I love you best. I’ve been on your list and a member of nicheology for awhile now – and your information is top-notch. I appreciate so much that you back important human rights causes and can illustrate the power of success with your business through that, versus showing off your mansion and your latest yacht. (Not to say that you have a mansion and a yacht, but you know what I mean…). Of course I understand the point – successful internet marketers want to show us they have the money to buy those “material things” – so we understand they are financially successful and can therefore show us how to be successful so we will buy their stuff. But the value system there, sucks, frankly, and it really turns me off. YES, I want to be successful, but it’s not so I can buy a mansion and a Porsche! Show me you are so successful that you can donate big to your favorite nonprofit causes and change lives, and also spend more time with the ones you love, and you’ve got my attention!
Thanks, Paul.
