Welcome to the first full night of Money & Marketing! For those of you not aware, Tuesday and Saturday of each week is now dedicated to helping all of us to manifest whatever our hearts desire.
I want to begin this post by introducing all of you to a resilient new friend of mine; Patrick Curl
. I want you to get used to this man's face, because he is soon to be one of America's newest millionaires.
In fact, tonight's topic of discussion was inspired by Patrick's most recent post titled: Speed Linking on Steroids: Manifesting 1 Million Dollars or Making $1,000,000 by blogging.
I invite all of you to join me in making sure that Patrick gets his 1 million dollars. After all, we are all about sowing seeds of purpose; right? If I've said it once, I've said it a million times; "In order to get what we want, we must first help someone else get what they want." Patrick is a man who understands this truth as well as anyone I've ever known.
The statement above, is an absolute fact! Ask any successful person and you will find that they have made this belief or practice one of the most important strategies in the attainment of their goals.
When it comes to marketing, the most powerful ingredient is networking. Though I've only known Patrick a short while, I must say that I am truly impressed with his energetic approach to networking. I encourage you to take notes when you visit his site.
Over the past few months, I have read quite a few books and articles on the power and future of "social networking" and how it is quickly changing the way we work and play.
Where networking is concerned, the Internet has given those of us who blog, a very powerful tool. With little effort, we now, can reach across the globe to share ideas and absorb information person-to-person and business to business, building an army of like-minded individuals that can literally move any mountain we choose.
You can wake up on Monday morning knowing absolutely no one in England, and by noon the same day, you can be cultivating personal or professional relationships, with 20 or 30 new associates in that country.
With blogging communities, we now, can build a network of what are known as, "friends". We can choose our new friends by viewing the details of their profile and the profiles of the friends they already associate with.
I'm going to suggest we take our community to the "next level".
What do you think would happen if we really focused our networks of communities to accomplish a specific purpose?
I have decided to invite you to participate in what I call: The S.O.S. (seeds of success) Consortium. The idea is to take our communities to a level of purpose.
The qualifications are as follows:
1) Know exactly what you want to accomplish and share your goals with the rest of us. The group would then offer any knowledge, personal experiences and resources to advise, guide and lift you to your desired outcome.
2) Share your personal knowledge, experiences and resources with the others in the group, so that we may move more quickly to the accomplishment of our goals as well.
It's that simple!
This works just like Habitat for Humanity, where members of the community come together to build a house for an individual family. The entire community works to ensure success for a single member.
Just imagine what magic would happen if you shared your desired goal with a community of 10,000 individuals with varying experiences, educational backgrounds and resources, with everyone committed to helping you. Send me an e-mail if you're interested.
Let's begin with helping Patrick take another step forward. Go visit his blog and offer what ever advise, information and resources you think will truly help him achieve his goal.
Patrick did a search for "million dollar experiment" (since this is the basis for his blog), for the purpose of finding information that might take him closer to his goal of generating $1,000,000 by the time he's 30.
I'm going to include a few of the links he found, so that all of you can benefit from the information as well:
