How to Make Your First Dollars Online
Even though I do quite well for myself now at 19, even I’m not an overnight success. I just got a very early start. If you read yesterday’s email, you know that I tried to make money online 6 years ago when I was just 13 years old. Failed miserably, but I did learn some […]

Continue readingLazy Copywriting
I’m not the greatest copywriter in the world. In fact, I’m very mediocre indeed. In addition to lacking any sort of special skills, I’m also kind of lazy. Sometimes I just don’t feel like writing a long sales pitch. As you know, for the next 24 hours I’m offering my dropshipping course for 50% off […]

I can’t help myself, it’s time for a little rant… This goes directly against my self-interest, but it needs to be said.

Many of you are perfectionists. It’s not your fault…Society has raised us all to be perfectionists. Perfectionism is rewarded in schools. At my school, we were never put under enough time pressure where students who could produce good (but not perfect) results quickly were rewarded. Even at tests, we always had plenty time.

Guess who’s back on YouTube? I know it’s only been a month or so since I stopped making videos. But for some reason, the inspiration has struck. Knowing myself, this could very well be a fleeting emotion. No sooner do I decide to double down on making videos…then I have a new idea that is […]
Continue readingCan you Trust a Filipino VA
We’ve got a cool little Mastermind of smart businessmen on Twitter. (No, you can’t join – sorry) Yesterday, the topic of hiring VAs (virtual assistants) came up. Specifically, a guy asks where he can find a VA that he can trust enough to give access to his computer and handle stuff for him. His situation […]
