I Was Hacked… Or Wormed?

So we all hear about hackers and viruses and worms that do all kinds of crazy things with our computers, websites and email accounts… but that only happens to other people, right?

Well, this weekend it happened to me.

Saturday morning I woke up to discover that someone or something had sent out a spam email through my Gmail account, to 100 people in my address book ranging from S to Z.

Since my Gmail is set to default to my LWL Worldwide email address, then everybody got an email from me on my professional business address.

Yeah, real professional!

So after doing my best to do damage control with the poor people who received the obnoxious spam, I set out trying to find out who — or what — exactly caused it to happen, and how to prevent it from happening again…

Butterfly Reports Taking Off…

Yesterday, Mike Filsaime and Rod Beckwith launched a website they’ve been working on for almost a year, called Butterfly Reports.

It’s still in beta, but I see a ton of potential for this site really taking off (pun intended… butterfly, taking off…)

In fact, this can create a whole metamorphosis for your online business! (Okay, I’ll stop with the puns now, I promise… well, for now, at least!)

The really cool thing about Butterfly Reports is it’s free — but so what, right? What do you GET for free?

Well, you get the opportunity to download money-making viral reports branded with your affiliate links, in a bunch of different niches, to give out to your subscribers or use to build a list.

Yes, that’s right… build a list AND make money at the same time.

Then you also have a chance to write your own reports that other people will brand and give out to 21 Quick Tipstheir subscribers, getting you traffic and sales as a result.

So it’s win-win all around, and pretty innovative — sure, you can find branded reports elsewhere, or write them, or have them written… but this is a one-stop free shop! Nothing to lose, just to gain.

Here’s an example of a report I branded… it’s called 21 Quick Tips for Self Improvement by Dan Gonzalez (download by right-clicking the link).

To get your own like this… and more, check out Butterfly Reports while it’s still in beta to get the most benefit.

Keep Unwrapping your Success!

Are You a Natural Born Marketer?

Most marketers want to take an approach that “feels right” for them. And it seems most spiritually-minded people aren’t very impressed with the average business or marketing book.

Why? Again… because it doesn’t “feel right”. It’s forced, or it’s dry, or dull, or too full of hype, or just doesn’t speak to their soul.

We all know that marketing and business are required to truly create a leveraged life of our dreams — one that allows us to stop trading time for money like in a JOB — and yet, how do you learn the skills when all the how-to information leaves you yawning, rolling your eyes, or scratching your head?

Joe VitaleBut there’s a new book out, by Joe Vitale — one of my former guests on Success Unwrapped and a star of the movie The Secret — and Craig Perrine, another topCraig Perrine marketer who embraces personal development and metaphysical techniques as well as physical hands-on how-to.

It’s called Inspired Marketing: The Astonishing Fun New Way to Create More Profits for Your Business by Following Your Heart.

Sound inspiring? (No pun intended!)

Visualizing the Big Reward… Or Award

Last night the Oscars were on… formally called The Academy Awards, but colloquially called the Oscars (because technically, the Emmy Awards are also Academy Awards, as are Canadian awards like the Geminis and the Genies… they’re all awarded by “The Academy”).

And besides, who wouldn’t want to honor the little gold man named Oscar?

While watching the presentations — and the many flashbacks, since it was the 80th annual show — one thing caught my attention time and time again.

People were talking about all the times they had “pictured” (visualized) that moment onstage… and how they had followed their dreams against all odds.

What does it take to make a dream come true?

  • Vision?
  • Conviction?
  • Ambition?
  • Action?

Or maybe all of the above “ion”s?

Hindsight is 20/20, and looking back on what people have achieved, it’s tempting to say, “Well, it was easy for them… they have (talent, looks, money, fame, whatever, blah-blah-blah)…”

But was it easy for them?

Maybe, because they loved every minute of the journey.

Could it be “easy” for you too?

Why not?

Go for the big reward… and maybe that involves an award, or maybe just the achievement is enough.

But dare to dream… and dream big.

Because if you shoot for the stars, you may hit the moon.

One Year Since Freedom Day

One year ago today I manifested Freedom Day.

And what a year it’s been!

A lot of changes have happened in my life since that day.  Not only did I learn a lot about myself from a business standpoint, but on a personal level too.

At the time, Barry and I were just friends… very good friends, but friends nonetheless.

Now I couldn’t imagine life without him…

And I can barely remember my work life before Freedom Day.

If you’ve ever wondered if you can work full time online — build your own business, or join together with like-minded people — I’m here to tell you that yes, it is possible.

Live the dream!

And if you need some free help… you’ll find it in my teleseminar series, Internet Marketing Unwrapped.

Keep Unwrapping the Successes of Life!

Faking It Until You Make It

Success Unwrapped AlbumWhen I started Success Unwrapped two years ago, and Internet Marketing Unwrapped over a year ago, I was working full time as an Account Rep for Nokia… the cell phone company.

Yes, I still get calls now and then from store managers, which reminds me of my “old life” that I have completely left behind. I didn’t give it a lot of thought when it was small stores that don’t sell a lot of phones, but yesterday I got a call from the Bell World store in the Toronto Eaton Centre — probably the biggest account Nokia has — and the manager said they had not seen a new rep in the 10 months since I was laid off.

Hmm… not what I would call good customer service. But I digress!

So anyhow, in the old days when I had the corporate gig, I would work all day, then come home and track down personal development and internet marketing experts, ask for interviews — and then ask some more, since you never get them all to say yes — lock down the dates, ask for bonuses to if it was a live call, then send out emails about the calls, or the podcasts, review some affiliate programs, send out more emails… yes, all around working a full time job AND some other extracurricular work as well.

Then in January I got laid off, after 3 years… the whole story is here.

At that moment, I realized I had become a full-time online marketer myself… but I had been afraid to quit the JOB, just like a lot of us are. We get hooked on that false sense of security that really isn’t so secure after all (I’m a perfect example of that!)

But I had learned the concept of “acting as if” — also known as “fake it till you make it” — a little trick that has served me well over time.

I can think of numerous times in my life when this has taken me to the next level:

Business Building Strategies Across the “Nations”

Kevin NationsThere’s one guy that I would recommend to anyone who is looking to build their business from small time to BIG time… and fast.

He has a knack for looking at what others are doing, and saying, “Hey… why not try this?”

And I don’t want to say he’s always right… but about as close as you can get.

That’s why they call him The Six Figure Sales Coach, The Mogul Maker, and The Ultimate Profit Mentor.

But I just call him Kevin Nations… because that’s his name.

What most people don’t know (unless they heard his interview with me last year for Success Unwrapped Radio) is that he understands and uses the Law of Attraction and other Universal laws in his business every day… and that has created his meteoric rise up the ladder of success, as well as allowing him to attract the right clients and offer the right value that they’re looking for.

Yeah, so for everybody who thinks the only way to make money once you understand the Law of Attraction is to sell information about the Law of Attraction… well, think again. I’ve got a ton more examples, but let’s stick to this one for now.

Anyhow, I’ve had the pleasure of meeting Kevin in person, of chatting with him on the phone numerous times, and of interviewing him twice…

And he is definitely one of the most generous and giving people with his knowledge and expertise that I’ve ever met.

That’s why I’ve invited him to be part of a Live Unwrapping Event on Tuesday, November 13.

No Longer A Cubicle Slave

I just posted an article on the LWL Blog called Breaking Free From The Cubicle Prison, which tells about Jaime Luchuck’s book launch and what it means to me… and possibly to you, as well.

This is how it starts off:

Earlier this summer, Barry and I went to Colorado to be involved in the production of a revolutionary internet TV show — the world’s first competitive online reality show, The Next Internet Millionaire which I co-hosted.

All the contestants were people who wanted to escape the daily grind, stop running the rat race, get away from their J.O.B. prisons, and live the lives of their dreams… the leveraged life without limits.

I used to deal with that same struggle, so I know exactly how they felt. Maybe you feel the same way too… but it doesn’t have to be that way.

Jaime Luchuck was one of the contestants, and she has taken the leap of faith from her cubicle to becoming the next big online success. And she has documented it all in her new one-of-a-kind book that launched today, “From Cubicle Slave to Next Internet Millionaire

Not only that, but over eighty of the world’s leading marketers will give you bonuses worth $10,000 just for picking up a copy of Jaime’s book.

This book launch is especially inspiring for me because I’ve watched Jaime’s journey unfold.

Rolling Your Way To Better Health

This morning I finally got a shipment I’ve been waiting for… some of my stuff has been at my parents’ house the past two months, but they finally got a chance to send it to me, and my foam roller arrived today.

I’m so excited, because now we have two… and up until now, Barry and I have been playing tug-of-war with the one we have.

Mine came as part of the Better Posture Guaranteed system from Jason Henderson; Barry ordered his from a fitness store online. But they’re both exactly the same.

And, in awe-inspiring synchronistic fashion, Jason sent mine to me in Toronto the same day Barry happened to order his. Neither of us knew the other was getting one, but we both love them.

The cool thing about mine is it came with two Better Posture Guaranteed DVDs hosted by Jason’s partner, Rob Smith. Because honestly, when you just look at these foam rollers, you think, “What the heck is this thing for?”

Here’s a video Jason took of me at JVAlert Live in June, where I’m demonstrating one of the moves:

YouTube Preview Image

And I said it was “awesome” in the video because that was truly my reaction when I tried it the first time, and Jason asked me to repeat it. I did because… well, it is awesome, and I’ll say it again: “It’s awesome!”

So, why do I like it so much?
