“Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things you did not do than by the things you did do. So, throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
By Mark Twain
It took 5 months to post again in this, my personal blog. Since my last post, my life has changed dramatically. My father passed away 2 months ago at 74 years old. He was a healthy person and died without disease. His death cause was a pain-free massive blood hemorrhage.
Now, without my father, my life has changed in a huge way. Although I don’t have and enjoy anymore his physical presence, it is curious, that he is present in my mind stronger than ever!
He gave me a powerful lesson in life about 2 human qualities that you can’t often find in our current life.
Now I affront my future with his example and trying to apply these 2 important qualities in my present life. Try to do the same in your life!
I must confess it! My biggest mistake and success is curiously the same thing.
Let me explain it further. I consider myself as an avid reader. You are probably thinking that’s a good habit, but I think it can be a mistake because being an opportunistic seeker, I am always jumping from one opportunity to another, from one business idea to another without properly extracting full profits. But it is a big success as well, because if you are capable to discern which are the important points for your business and life you mind improves and you acquires a broader PERSPECTIVE.
Ok, now that I really believe that my mind possesses a broader perspective, it’s time to FOCUS on what is important. If you are starting a business project or your business seems to be paralyzed it’s time to focus on the right strategy, keeping away from disturbing opportunities.
This is the point my life seems to be right now. I must focus on important things and develop the right strategy to build up my business. I have just enrolled in Rich Schefren’s Coaching program. This program is currently closed but you can read more about it at Strategic Profits. I strongly recommend you to carefully study the free material you can find at:

I will share my personal experiences with Rich in the future , but now it’s time to start thinking strategically, broadening your mind perspective and focus on your important things.
Yours in profits.

Oh my God!
Six months have passed without any post. Well my life has experimented many changes in these six months. I learned many lessons from these changes. But my mind has a brighter vision of my business and life.
Probably one of my own character qualities I feel more proud of is PERSPECTIVE! When you have perspective you can use this powerful tool to raise your mind above turbulent waters and find solutions to your problems easily. Other important lesson I learned is that you need to build your business based on principles not techniques. Techniques come and go but principles stay and grow your business.
I am preparing an especial report about the seven principles and character values you need to posses and work with in order to succeed in business and life. I will keep you informed about the date this especial report can be available.
Yours in profits.

I must confess my main sin:
LAZINESS
Yes, I consider myself as a lazy marketer. Those days of 3 different jobs (2 from Monday to Friday and other on weekends) and 70 working hours per week are PAST!
But do not think laziness is the same as inaction. Even the laziest marketer has an extraordinary energy with his hobbies and passions. However, inaction on internet marketing is mainly caused by information overload. You can get inaction from paralysis from analysis disease as well. Yes they are the most important diseases affecting your profits.
If you want to become a successful lazy marketer you must convert yourself into an efficient marketer. Efficiency is the key concept here. Maybe hard workers can obtain more profits from their businesses, but these hard workers pay a very expensive price for their results. They lose their balance in life. Most of times, behind very successful workaholics you’ll probably find broken marriages, bad parent-children relationships, stress… Behind lazy efficient marketers you’ll find people enjoying their life, family, relationships and hobbies.
In my future post I’ll explain the differences between efficiency and effectiveness and I’ll provide you the most powerful concept every successful lazy marketer must use to go beyond projected goals.
