Most people say every year that they want to lose weight or exercise more. But they abandon these resolutions early on in the year because they don’t have a lot of motivation or they think they have to be perfect. One day of bad eating or skipping the morning run and they feel like the year is ruined.

It is much better to set goals for yourself instead. Spend some time thinking about where you are in your business and your personal life.
Picture yourself at the beginning of 2009. Where would you like to be? How much money would you like to be making? How much would you like to weigh?

Get as clear a picture as you can of where you want to be.

Once you have this picture in your mind you can set real goals for yourself based on where you want to go. Remember that the most powerful goals are specific, measurable, attainable, results oriented and time bound. Don’t just say you want to make more money, say you want to increase your income by $5,000 a month within the next nine months.
Goals set in this way are much better than wishy-washy resolutions because they drive you to action. They’re a lot more exciting and empowering than a mere statement of what you’d like to do.

When you set goals instead of resolutions, each day gives you a new opportunity to take a step to reach that goal. Yes, you will have days where it’s hard, where you’ll make no progress, but with consistent effort throughout the year you’ll find yourself reaching your goals and having a lot more fun doing it.

Yours in success,

For a few days each year, they greet each other, or answer the phone, or address an email with “Hello, From My Heart”.

So simple.

Yet so effective at changing our energy, the energy of those we greet, and the energy of entire communities.

In fact, each year we measure the violence level in key areas before and during this focused period. Each year, violence has measurably decreased. (You can see the exact areas and stats on the site under Event History.)

I was reading the sports section this morning – an article about Joseph Mattioli who is the owner of Pocono Raceway where today’s NASCAR Pocono 500 will be run.

In the mid-1970’s, NASCAR was not the absolute financial powerhouse it is now. And Mattioli was very concerned about mounting losses at the track. He considered selling the track to get out from under the debt.

That’s when he got a call from Bill France Sr. (Father of former NASCAR chairman Bill France Jr.) When they met in New York, France pulled out his business card and scribbled this message:

“On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones who when within the grasp of victory sat and waited and waiting died.”

Needless to say…Mattioli didn’t sell. And I’m sure he’s banked a ton of Benjamins since then.

I urge you to take a moment to reflect on whether you hesitate when you should charge forward. Do you pause just when victory is within your grasp?

Many people would argue that it’s just human nature to do this.

I’d respond that as thinking beings, we have the ability to overcome our nature and to choose…

to achieve…

and to have…

and to be anything we want!

If you’re not getting everything you want, then I’ve got something that will help:

http://www.internetpromoservices.com/secret

It would be easy for you to ignore this message. To just slough it off. To say it does not apply to you.

But if you are not where you want to be in life, then you have to ask yourself… why not?

The answer does not lie in blaming others, blaming circumstances or just plain whining. No matter how bad you think you have it, or what someone did to you, many other people have faced worse circumstances…

And overcome them to achieve great things.

It’s your choice where you go from here. Do not shy away from success. Do not turn away from victory.

Instead, grab life by the horns and go for the ride of your life.

Yours in success,

Shawn Casey

Brad Fallon, Jeff Paul, Jim Fleck and I were fortunate to play in the AT&T Classic Pro-Am with PGA Tour Pro Craig Bowden. We thought we prepared for the pressure of this event since it’s played on my home course – TPC Sugarloaf and I live on the 4th green. Brad, Jeff and Jim had played the course with me before. We should have no excuses. After all, how tough could this really be?

Keep reading.

Standing in front of the 4th green – (L to R) Shawn Casey, Jim Fleck, Craig Bowden, Brad Fallon and Jeff Paul.
My house is in the background.

How tough? That turned out to be a stupid question. Because it could be very tough. We all managed to get off the first tee without actually embarrassing ourselves. In fact, everything was going along okay until I had to hit my 3rd shot from the greenside sand trap. I completely missed the sand and picked the ball cleanly out of the bunker, straight over the flag, over the green and over the heads of the marshals behind the green. Oops.

I’d love to tell you we played great. We didn’t. This game is way harder than the pros make it look. Those guys really are good.

I’d love to tell you I played better than Brad. I didn’t. Hopefully, he never sees this post.

But we did have a lot of fun. And we’re definitely going to be back next year.  Craig Bowden is a great guy who went out of his way to make sure we enjoyed the day and gave us a few valuable swing tips. His caddy Ray was spot on with the yardages we were supposed to hit. Supposed to. <grin>

I’d suggest you go to Craig’s website or blog to wish him good luck this weekend. But…GASP….he doesn’t have either. We’re going to help him change that. But if you’re in the Atlanta area and come to the tournament this week, be sure to look Craig up and cheer him on. As I write this, he’s two under par after four holes so it looks like he’ll be having a great tournament.

For the golf fanatics who want more details and pics…

Here’s the overview of the 4th hole. You can see that you hit over Old Peachtree Creek into a wide open fairway. Your second shot has to avoid landing in the creek which wanders down the fairway. The approach shot is tricky because anything left is either in the tall weeds or the creek.

The wide open 4th fairway. It looks so easy from here.

Craig is putting for birdie on the 4th green. Of course, he makes it. He’s a pro!

That means I missed all the excitement back in the A-T-L when my neighbor Ray Buchanan and his daughter Destinee were featured on MTV on Monday night! Seems that Big Play
Ray (as he was known in the NFL) threw a pretty amazing bash for Destinee’s Sweet 16 party.

You can see the clips of the show online and it’s actually a lot of fun to watch.

For those of you that are using the Law of Attraction to focus on what you want to attract, be sure to watch the clip with the tour of Ray’s house. That will definitely
give you some great ideas for planning your dream home!

Just go here – http://www.mtv.com/#/ontv/ and click on the Sweet 16 After Party image with Destinee’s pic on it.

After you see their home, you’ll completely understand why my fellow Internet marketing expert Matt Bacak and his wife Stephanie had focused on moving here. And they did move in just around the corner early this year!

One more example of the Law of Attraction at work.

One of the biggest mistakes I see, and I’ve seen it a lot lately, is the copycat guy. You know how this works… someone develops a new hit TV show / movie / book / something, and a whole bunch of people jump in and copy it.

It’s like having dozens of sequels to a hit movie.

Unfortunately, 90% of the copycats suck at what they’re doing. Seriously.

The marketing sucks. The product sucks. Did you ever notice that almost every movie sequel sucks as well? Not that some don’t make money, but you can’t keep sending out the same message and expecting the market to keep buying at the same rate. It’s not going to happen.

I’ve seen at least 2 versions of this in the arena of Internet marketing lately and it’s pretty funny if you stand back and watch this from a broader perspective.

The first one focuses on list building courses. Every business owner knows you need to build a list for your business. And for an online biz this can be incredibly lucrative. But at least once a month, I get a promotion from some guy who has just released the latest, greatest course on lists.

Nine out of 10 of these guys I’ve never heard of. They’re just copying the last guy who seemed to do pretty well selling a course. But they’re just peddling some rehashed trash that they think might work, but they haven’t actually made work themselves!

The second one is built around being an “anti-guru”. At some point in the development of the Internet, some people got labeled as “gurus”. Not sure what qualifies them. Very few of them sought the title.

So my friend Chris Adams does a great job selling his Day Job Killer course – great course BTW – http://www.internetpromoservices.com/dayjob as the young guy who stole all the gurus’ secrets.

Now what happens is all wannabe gurus decide that they don’t want to be gurus any more. They want to be anti-gurus instead. Because they think they’re going to sell more stuff that way. In fact, one guy sends out an email about getting a tattoo that actually says “anti-guru”. But apparently he was not committed enough to the position so he didn’t actually get the tattoo.

Do you see the trend happening here?

It’s like a bunch of politicians that change their minds every time a new poll shows that the voters’ opinions have shifted.

Now some of y’all might be thinking that the Big Dog here is guilty of the same thing since I worked with Antonio Thornton to recently release “Using The Law Of Attraction To Get Anything You Want!”

Obviously, this product follows the same theme discussed on the movie “The Secret” and lots of people have become instant “gurus”. Not me. Not Antonio.

First of all, I’ve been using the Law Of Attraction and similar principles for a long time. That’s why I live in the $2.2MM home, drive the luxury cars, and am currently sitting here in my $800k vacation home. Most of those wannabe LOA (Law Of Attraction) experts only see this kind of success on TV or in a magazine.

Second, Antonio Thornton IS an expert on the Law of Attraction. He personally runs the largest group in the world (of those we can find) of like- minded people who meet to work on using the Law of Attraction in their daily lives. That group has 482 people and counting.

Third, instead of rehashing the same stuff as countless other people seem to be doing, we spent time to give this a fresh perspective based on our personal lives.

Fourth, instead of some $20++ book, we recording an in-depth audio with 114 minutes of solid info. You can download this session and listen on your computer or your iPod or similar mp3 player. Plus, we give you the uncensored transcript so you can read any part you want as well.

Fifth, this entire package is more user friendly and more valuable than any static book. But it costs about 70% LESS than these hardcover books.

Just $7 gets you everything!

So while this is a popular topic, we’re not playing the boring copycat game.

Take a look. See what you think.

“I don’t have a product, I don’t have a website and I don’t have any money…how can I make money?”

My answer is always the same: Affiliate programs.

A friend of mine just launched a really cool affiliate program: http://www.prosperable.com/affiliates.html to promote a product I helped him create. (By the way, it’s an EXCELLENT program that shows you how to get anything you want http://www.prosperable.com I HIGHLY recommend you getting it.

We’ll long story short, I told a few people about the site (and sent them there with my affiliate link), then about 11 minutes later, massive amounts of PayPal payments started coming into my account…so much so, that I had to switch accounts so PayPal wouldn’t shut me down.

It didn’t cost me anything, I didn’t have to make the website… I just sent people there to the site using my affiliate link and people bought the program and I got paid – IMMEDIATELY.

He even mentioned to me that he has a ‘tell-a-friend’ script so that when you buy the product, you can fill out the email addresses of your friends and it automatically emails them with a link to the site using YOUR affiliate link…so if they buy, YOU get the commissions immediately in your PayPal account! Pretty cool.

Go there now and start making some cash (hopefully in the next 11 minutes ) ==>> www.prosperable.com

No tricks. No gimmicks. Just the solid facts about how you can finally get what you want…
when you want… how you want it.

I kid you not – it’s crazy how well this works!

I urge you to do this right now:

Do this before the dog barks.

Before your spouse calls you to dinner.

Before that next email comes in.

It’s time for you get what you want!

Now, many people don’t understand the Law Of Attraction. First of all, they don’t think it works and I can absolutely, unequivocably tell you that it definitely does work. Whether you’re intending for it to work or not, and so one of the things we should talk about first of all is the unintended consequences of Law Of Attraction.

You’ve probably heard the term that nature abhors a vacuum. Well the universe abhors a vacuum as well. In other words, if you’re not focused on what you would like to be, where you wanna go, what you wanna achieve, what you want out of life, you may not be consciously doing that but unconsciously something is going on all the time because you are where you are for a reason and you pretty much have to put yourself there whether you want to admit that or not.

So, when we look at the Law Of Attraction, we have to think about what is it that we want to attract into our live. Now, using the word ‘want’ is a dangerous thing here, because many people will say I want, I want, I want, I want.

Well, what are you immediately setting up? Forget the ‘I’ word, what’s left; the ‘want’ word. You’re setting up a whole bunch of ‘I wants.’ I want a big house, I want a big car, I want a new girlfriend, I want a new husband, I want a baby; these are all ‘wants.’ See, when you set up wants, then you get a life full of want which leads to a life full of lack and you feel unfulfilled, unsatisfied. You can’t be talking about I want, I want, I want. What you need to be focused on is; I am, I have, I am doing, I am achieving, this is what’s happening for me.

See, we need to change our language. It’s very important as you think and as you speak you need to think about what it is you’re saying. Go back and analyze what you said, how you thought, and when you do that you will realize that whatever it is your most saying and thinking, that is what actually is happening in your life. If you think, I am poor, I am poor, I am poor; guess what, you are, and if you’re not you will be when you’re done. If you say that long enough and focus on that.

The two key words in here; the ones you wanna really focus on, the ones that are the words ‘I am.’ ‘I am are very, very powerful words throughout history, the words ‘I am.’ You say ‘I am great, I am powerful, I am healthy,’ then you feel that way. In fact, I can feel the energy flow through my body as I focus on what I am saying I am. I could likewise depress myself by saying, you know, ‘I am sick, I am unhealthy, I am poor, I am in position of a miserable life,’ I can feel my energy drain away.

So, you can raise your energy, raise what’s actually your vibrational level, everything is energy vibrating at a frequency including every cell of your human body, and you can raise that level simply by, you know, ‘I am great, I am powerful, I am wonderful, I am achieving so many wonderful things, I am living in such a wonderful area, I live such a wonderful life.’ It feels different, it feels great. You can feel the energy flow through you, and of course, if you feel that way, then you approach it from a very positive I-am, I-have standpoint, then you’re going to see miraculous things happen in your life…it will seem like miracles as these things come to you and you enjoy so many great things in life.

So, watch your language. Think carefully about what it is you’re doing and saying, those are the things you’re going to attract. The Law Of Attraction is working whether you’re working or not.

Coming up soon, make sure you catch the Oprah show that’s gonna be on very soon after I’ve recorded this message, and it’s gonna in fact feature Lisa Nichols and Michael Beckwith, you’re gonna love to hear from these folks about the Law Of Attraction, about The Secret, and so make sure you stay tuned and catch Michael Beckwith and Lisa Nichols on the Oprah Show.

With that, folks the Law Of Attraction is working. Make sure it’s gonna work for you, for your benefit.

Wish you all the success,

This is Shawn Casey.
