Humor??? DidJA Know.....
Marilyn Monroe had six toes.
No piece of paper can be folded in half more than 7 times.
It is possible to lead a cow upstairs...but not downstairs.
A duck's quack doesn't echo and no one knows why.
Turtles can breathe through their butts. (Now

you!)

Commentary
Several readers have asked for more information on
my results using ScreenBlaze which I commented on in the last issue.
Well - its free, its doing good things for my site rankings, and I
am getting both product sales and signups to SmartBusiness.
So, I can see no reason for anyone not to try it if they have a
website, product, or affiliate program to promote.
Update: Since I wrote that piece, I've actually expanded my
use of ScreenBlaze to promote multiple products. I have the
luxury of having multiple severs upon which I have installed
ScreenBlaze. Since these puppies are working 24x7, they might
as well be driving some traffic my way. The copy of SB on each
server is set to target a specific product page at 21biz.com.
Click the following links to see what a ScreenBlaze user would see
on their computer when their screensaver kicks in. The ad
shows for 1 minute before SB rotates to the next vendor.

Mark Joyner's New Business Will
Surprise You.
Internet Super Star Mark Joyner created quite a stir
when he sold off all his online business ventures earlier this year.
I believe he ended up selling a thousand copies at $1,000 each.
You do the math! A lot of people have been wondering
what he planned to do for an encore. Well now we know.
A couple of weeks ago, Mike Chen emailed and asked if I would help
beta test Mark's new system. Turns out that Mike is a key
partner in Mark's new venture. Well, I'm not one to turn down
what looked like a potential ground floor business opportunity with
two of the Internets leading marketers.
Now, I have to say that I was a little surprised at
his new business venture. It wasn't what I expected - but
great new ideas seldom are. The beta test concluded earlier
this week and the system is now available to the public as of 8/25.
I call this a system because its a series of steps designed to teach
anyone (willing to work) how to create personal wealth. No!
Its not another ebook! Once you know the system, you can apply
it to create multiple streams of income. The first income
stream launched on 8/25/2003. There are more to come...
I could say more, but I think it would be better to
let you experience the introduction to the system just as I did.
So here's the link to Mark Joyner's new business.

Stuff!! - TOP Affiliate
Programs Plus a Free Ebook
Promoting affiliate programs is one of the top
ways of making quick money on the Internet because your only function is
drive traffic to the affiliate site. Your master affiliate
takes care of the rest of the details.
Download this free course to learn
more. Here's my list of the top
programs that are currently working well for me. I choose
programs that are generating the most buzz on the web because
they're easier to promote. I also try to promote
products that I use somewhere in my Internet business. That
way I can write and talk about my personal experience with the product.
Most of the programs I choose use a two tier approach which
means you can earn bonus income from sub affiliates. How to
signup: First click the links, review the programs offered,
and determine if they fit your interests, web site focus, or email
list. Don't join a program that doesn't fit your situation or
that you're unwilling to spend some promo time on. OK, Here's
my top affiliate programs.

on my life by helping me define where
I'm going and how to get there.
If you're looking for more success in
your life - Jim will help you get there.
CHANGE BEGINS WITH CHOICE
Any day we wish; we can discipline ourselves to change it
all. Any day we wish; we can open the book that will open our
mind to new knowledge. Any day we wish; we can start a new
activity. Any day we wish; we can start the process of life
change. We can do it immediately, or next week, or next
month, or next year.
We can also do nothing. We can pretend rather than perform.
And if the idea of having to change ourselves makes us
uncomfortable, we can remain as we are. We can choose rest
over labor, entertainment over education, delusion over
truth, and doubt over confidence. The choices are ours to
make. But while we curse the effect, we continue to nourish
the cause. As Shakespeare uniquely observed, "The fault is
not in the stars, but in ourselves." We created our
circumstances by our past choices. We have both the ability
and the responsibility to make better choices beginning
today. Those who are in search of the good life do not need
more answers or more time to think things over to reach
better conclusions. They need the truth. They need the
whole truth. And they need nothing but the truth.
We cannot allow our errors in judgment, repeated every day,
to lead us down the wrong path. We must keep coming back to
those basics that make the biggest difference in how our life
works out. And then we must make the very choices that will
bring life, happiness and joy into our daily lives.
And if I may be so bold to offer my last piece of advice for
someone seeking and needing to make changes in their life -
If you don't like how things are, change it! You're not a
tree. You have the ability to totally transform every area in
your life - and it all begins with your very own power of
choice.
To Your Success,
Jim Rohn
