But first...

Have you circled April 5th on your calendar?

Go do it. I'll wait....

More about April 5th in time.

I just returned from San Diego after training with Frank Zane, three time winner of the bodybuilding title, Mr.Olympia. My muscles are still sore. But my quest for fitness is now light-years ahead. For details on Frank Zane, see http://www.FrankZane.com

See a pic of me and Frank at

I've become so committed to fitness that I'm building my own world-class fully-equipped gym right here on my property. I'm talking about a beautiful separate building, expensive equipment; the works. Talk about a transformation.

But enough about that (for now).

Oh. I suggest you print out this edition, so you can read it comfortably and take it wherever you need to go today.

Now to this months news and views...

REQUEST: If you or someone you know has access to Sir Richard Branson, please let me or Dave Boufford know at Daveboufford@ameritech.net NEW: What are the inside secrets to copywriting? See http://www.getresponse.com/t/454692/

LISTEN: Thanks to some new technology, and the proven wisdom from the 1930s, you can now slip on headphones and ... well, go here to see (and hear) for yourself -- http://www.ListenandGrowRich.com

NEW: Do you know what the Asians are secretly doing to rake in the fungolas online? You'll discover what one guy is doing to consistently rake in 5 figure profits without breaking a sweat. It's different and gutsy.

WANTED: A passionate hypnotic marketer who could really run with my Hypnotic Selling Secrets product and sell the bejeebers out of it. Nitro Marketing is looking to interview and assign a dedicated project manager to that product. If you're interested, write me direct at HSS@mrfire.com

If you want to know more about it, see http://HypnoticSellingSecrets.com/g.o/10386

TIP: Say you are searching for something at Google and turn up a dead end. Where do you go next?

Click on "More" on the top of the Google page and you'll see an icon for "Answers." Click on it. Now you can post your question and a live Google researcher will go looking for your answer.

You pay them whatever you want, from fifty cents to $200. I've used this extra service and love it. Seems like you can get answers for under a buck, but if you offer more money, you'll get a quicker response. I've had Google researchers return thesis-quality answers to one of my questions -- all for five dollars.

See http://answers.google.com/answers/

TIP: People trying to create "hypnotic writing" often blow it because they work with the 5 senses of the reader but forget the most important sense of all.

For example, anyone who studies my Hypnotic Selling Secrets home study course knows you need to speak to people's interests, and you need to use language that helps them see, hear, touch, taste and even smell whatever it is you are writing about.

But what about the missing sense?

In Eric Schiffer's book, "Emotionally Charged Learning," he states: "We are less equipped to experience our world from a physical standpoint (taste, touch, sight, smell, sound) than we are from a mental standpoint."

In other words, use stories and imaginings to help people awaken their own brains, because inside their brains are 10,000,000,000,000 synapses that allow new information to join with old information to create new experiences.

In essence, the more your Hypnotic Writing can engage people on an emotional level, the more they will remember and act on it.

Read Schiffer's book for more details, and get my course for the whole enchilada. See http://HypnoticSellingSecrets.com/g.o/10386 or http://www.hypnoticsellingformula.com

TIP: I was reading "Damn! Why Didn't I Think Of That" by Marc McCutcheon, and loved his chapter on all the success stories of some books. For example:

"How to Make Your Man Behave in 21 Days or Less Using the Secrets of Professional Dog Trainers." (Sold 147,000 copies)

"Don't Squat With Your Spurs On! A Cowboy's Guide to Life" (Sold 114,945 copies sold)

"Bodybuilding: A Scientific Approach" (Sold 150,000 copies)

"Bet You Can't! Science Impossibilities to Fool You" (Sold 500,000 copies)

"All I Need to Know I Learned from My Cat" (Sold 1,608,000 copies)

Ideas for books are everywhere. Bill Hibbler and I reveal numerous ways to write and market your own e-book in our new ultimate guide at http://www.create-ultimate-ebooks.com

Jim Edwards and I reveal how to write one in under 7 days at http://www.7dayebook.com

Pat O'Bryan and I answered your questions at http://www.ebookproblemsolver.com

What's stopping you from writing one?

If it's self-sabotage, then be looking for a new e-book to help you remove those blocks to your own success...

FASCINATING: Despite the title, I was riveted to the book "The Mind and The Brain: Neuroplasticity and the Power of Mental Force" by Dr. Jeffrey Schwartz.

Schwartz is a medical doctor who discovered he could help patients with obsessive-compulsive disorders by teaching them to become aware of their own thoughts.

Using his instructions, patients could actually create new neural pathways in their brains, which he calls "Neuroplasticity." They were able to reshape their brains by doing one thing: Staying aware.

The implications are enormous. While most of the world says we can't change our chemical structure, let alone the wiring in our brains, along comes this medical doctor who *proves* otherwise. And it all stems from "mental force" -- the power to choose what you will do or think despite what your brain may be urging otherwise.

I've said it repeatedly. Anything can be changed.

You can succeed when in the past you may have failed. I've lost almost 60 pounds after a lifetime of obesity. The secret is in taking control of your thoughts. For help, consider:

SECRETS: I love Sir Richard Branson. He's the mega- rich mega-popular business tycoon behind numerous global businesses. If you want to learn his secrets for doing business, grab a copy of "The Rebel Rules: Daring to Be Yourself in Business" by Chip Conley, with a nice foreword by Richard Branson himself.

The book isn't about Branson's secrets so much as it is about Conley's secrets. Conley is the boy wonder of the travel industry. He's famous for the same kind of outrageous thinking as Branson. The book covers it all, including ways to woo the media. I love it and think you will, too. From Amazon or from http://www.simonsays.com

HYPNOTIC: Last month I reported on the new playing cards, "Irresistible Influence," which help you learn verbal persuasion skills. Well, the same company just released yet another set of playing cards, this one designed to help you learn Ericksonian Hypnosis. I love these. See http://www.saladltd.co.uk/

INSIGHT: I didn't think anything else could be written about persuasion and influence, so you can imagine how skeptical I was when I picked up "Instant Persuasion" by Laurie Puhn, a lawyer in New York City

Boy, was I wrong.

I opened it to the chapter called "Rule 10: Beware of Uncomplimentary Compliments." These are compliments that most of us say without thinking. For example, "Your face looks thin with that new hairdo" isn't a compliment.

It's an insult. It's saying, "You have a fat face."

Another of Laurie's rules is "Rule 24: Create Comfort in a Difficult Time." This one struck home for me. It's about the need to say something comforting to a friend in their time of pain or sorrow. When Marian died last October, I heard from hundreds of people, but I never heard from some close friends of mine. That hurt.

As Laurie points out, saying nothing sends the unintended message, "I don't care about you."

There are 35 eye-opening rules in this engaging, highly readable, enjoyable, and educational book. It's made me more aware of how I (and others) communicate.

The book is about the social blunders we make, usually unknowingly. I strongly suggest you get this one. It's at Amazon or from http://www.LauriePuhn.com

SPIRITUAL: What's so spiritual about business?

I was wandering through a bookstore in Austin, Texas last month when a book with the title, "Spiritual Business" seemed to leap off the shelf.

I grabbed it. Bought it. Love it.

It's the riveting true story of how Michael Peter Langevin started the magazine, "Magical Blend", over 25 years ago. He began with no experience, no money, a distaste for business, and an inner desire to help the world.

Along the way this anti-establishment, anti-capitalist learns that money and spirit go hand in hand. His story is enlightening, inspiring, and unforgettable. It helps show that spirit is everywhere -- even in business.

Get it from Amazon or from http://www.hrpub.com

INSPIRING: I love people who do what others consider impossible. David Bornstein wrote about some of them in his book, "How to Change the World." It's about social entrepreneurs: People who use their ideas to make a difference in the world.

I'm talking about people such as Veronica Khosa, a woman in South Africa who created a home- based care program for AIDS patients that changed health care policy in that country.

I'm talking about Fabio Rosa, a man in Brazil who brings electricity to hundreds of thousands of remote rural residents.

And I'm talking about James Grant, who saved 25,000,000 lives by using marketing to get global immunization.

The list goes on. These are people with "impossible dreams" -- to make a difference in the world -- who are actually doing it in clever and creative ways.

Read it and be inspired. Get it from Amazon or from http://www.oup.com

PERSONAL: The home Marian (my late ex) lived in is now for sale. If you're in or around the Houston area, or know someone who may be interested in a beautiful 3-bedroom brick home on the north side, see:
http://houston.craigslist.org/rfs/56239938.html

And that's a wrap for this month, but...

Remember: One day soon I will reveal my entire fitness story, including how a $15,000 time-machine, a secret group of Indian mystics, and a rare magic ring helped remove the final barriers to my weight-loss goal.

Oh. Did you circle April 5th on your calendar yet?

Until next month, consider...

"Money is only a tool, like a knife or fire, which
can be used to inflict pain or to bring about healing."

-- "Spiritual Business" by Michael Peter Langevin
