Hello world!  An Auspicious Start to this Blog  with Turbo Seminar #1 !

The Centerpiece of Turbo Seminar #1, February 26-28 2010 – a huge amount of small group and personal time with the great “Eagles” (in John’s metaphor) of internet marketing:

• intimate and lengthy discussions with Mark Joyner and John Delavera, and as a result, personal breakthroughs for me, and apparently other people too
• getting to know online friends face to face – so much better than webinars and email
• learning from experienced marketers and teachers like Simon Leung (Google Insider) and Andy Huang, Lee Collins (Hybrid Marketing), Morgan Westerman (Interview with God; Affiliate strategies, Glen Dietzel (Intellectual Property and publishing), Warren Whitlock (Being an Expert), Susan Preston (Being Yourself – Social Media), and Mike Wesely (Article Cartel traffic system);
• Jeremy Gislayson dropped in for a day; Albert Hallado gave a very moving speech.
• We missed not meeting Joe Sugarman (threatened by Tsunami) and Ken McArthur (snowed in), but next year?

The discussions with Mark highlighted Inspiration, Choice and Habits, in other words:

1. who am I
2. where am I going, and
3. how do I travel in that direction most effectively
4. and the foundation of it all, where is my joy?

Some of the Inspirational pieces that Mark and John brought to our attention below:

Mark Joyner

As I said, Mark does his best to shake us loose from some of the thoughts and behaviors that might not serve too well. To interrupt some patterns he pointed us to:

The Magic Story

After scratching around online a bit for it, I felt this old story, “ The Magic Story ”,  deserves better expression that it seems to currently get online, so I will offer it in several ways at    http://themagicstory.info/

But really, the main purpose of reading a story like this is to reconnect to “ My Magic Story ”, our own magic story that whispers to us now and then, and is waiting to be told out loud.

I hope we can have fun with this.

John Delavera

I have been with John’s Turbomembership for more than 2 years, and it has surely changed my life, and the weekend was certainly a highlight. To get some idea why, check out the following right now, and I will explain more in other posts:

John Delavera: “I have a vision”

John Delavera: “Be a Shakespeare of your Kind”

As well as watching the videos, be sure to download the pdf documents to read about John and his introduction to the story.

Then, for anyone interested in internet marketing, be sure to go ahead and read “The Big Yellow Book”; it can change your life.

Eagles

John talked about joining the Internet Marketing Eagles this weekend, so let me say this about that, and I will take it further later:

From the book, “Medicine Cards” (Jamie Sams and David Carson), we learn:

“ Eagle medicine is the power of the Great Spirit, the connection to the Divine. It is the ability to live in the realm of spirit, and yet remain connected and balanced within the realm of Earth.

…

Eagle represents a state of grace achieved through hard work, understanding, and a completion of the tests of initiation which results in the taking of one’s personal power.

…

Eagle Medicine is the gift we give ourselves to remind us of the freedom of the skies. Eagle asks you to give yourself permission to legalize freedom and to follow the joy of your heart desires.”

Main Point

Eagle reminds you to take heart, gather your courage, soar above your usual habits, and

JUST GO FOR IT!
