  • Falling off a flying trapeze

    Falling off a flying trapeze

    Last weekend I eventually gave in.

    One of my friends from drama school, has been trying to get me to go and learn the flying trapeze for years. He does it three or four times a week, and absolutely loves it.

    So, having moved out of London, he eventually managed to persuade me to go and do something in London.

    It’s funny how, when you move out of a city, suddenly you actually do more things in that city, than you ever did when you lived there.

    You kinda take everything for granted when you’re there. You kinda think… “well I can do that anytime I want.”

    But you never actually get around to doing it.

    Anyhoo…

    I bloody loved it.

    It was truly an awesome two hours, and I’m going to be going more regularly from now on.

    We learned how to hang from a bar upside down, using our knees, and did a catch mid air.

    You can see me doing it in my new YouTube channel here.

    And, just for the record, I’m going to be posting some more stuff up in that channel (most of it to do with marketing), so you may want to Follow it 😉

    There was something I learnt very quickly on the flying trapeze. If you wanted to do it, then you had to trust the instructor and just jump.

    Literally.

    They would tell you when to jump, when to spin, hook your knees, stretch out, catch and let go.

    If you didn’t think about it, and just followed what they said, it was’t so hard. Because they know what they’re doing.

    And it’s the same with internet marketing.

    There are loads of people who’re standing on the edge, too afraid to jump off, planning and planning and planning, but never actually doing.

    But that doesn’t work.

    You’ve simply got to jump, otherwise nothing will ever change for you.

    And, if you’d like me to be the one shouting instructions to you when you jump, you’re going to want to register on the early-bird list for my new book and newsletter.

    https://michaelwilding.com/mw-early-bird/

    Because I’m going to be opening the doors to early-birds tomorrow. And I may have a rather nice surprise for you 😉

    It’s time to jump.

  • Yes, it’s the brutal truth

    Yes, it’s the brutal truth

    I sent an email out at the end of last week, with the subject line…

    “I don’t f**k about”

    In it I talked about how I just say it like it is. You may not like it, but you know it’s the truth, and it’s what I’ve done to get to where I am.

    But there were a few folk who got offended, and they decided to write me some delightful emails detailing what they thought.

    For example, in the midst of one persons rant was this statement:

    “I do not have time for such nonsense.”

    Looking into their email stats, they’d opened pretty much every single email I’d ever sent since they joined my list.

    For someone who didn’t have time for nonsense, they’d spent a heck of a lotta time reading my emails.

    The truth?

    They weren’t ready to hear what I was saying. They wanted me to say that they were doing the right thing, they just needed to try harder and everything would be fine.

    But that’s balls. They weren’t doing the right thing, and I know that from what was put in the email, and they were pissed I’d told them.

    No problemo.

    If you don’t want to hear the truth, then you don’t want to be on my mailing list, so I unsubscribed them and blocked them from re-joining.

    On the other hand, I also got a bunch of emails with statements like this one…

    “Hell Yeah! This is great stuff man. Lets Do This!!!!!”

    Now that’s what I’m talkin about.

    That’s somebody who wants to hear the truth, someone who wants to learn and take action, someone who wants to succeed.

    And that’s exactly the kinda person I want on my mailing list, because you’re the folks who’re going somewhere and I wanna be the person to help you get there.

    If that sounds like you, then you’re gonna want to pre-register for my book and newsletter at:

    https://michaelwilding.com/mw-early-bird/

    The proof copies arrive this week and, when I’ve checked all is hunky-dory, I’ll be opening the doors to the early-bird list first.

  • I don’t f**k about

    I don’t f**k about

    “I really like u because you tell me like it is”

    I got that in an email the other day.

    And it’s true. I don’t f**k about.

    There are too many people online telling you what you want to hear. If you want that kind of gentle massage, then you wanna get off my mailing list.

    Coz I’m never gonna do it!

    Simply put… I’ll tell you what you need to hear if you want to run a successful online business.

    Don’t like what you’re hearing. Then it’s time to head-off, jump onto another gooroo launch party and fail again.

    If you’re prepared to look in the mirror and change shit. If you’re prepared to work hard. If you’re prepared to do whatever it takes.

    Then you’re gonna want to register here, because I’m closing in on the release date!

  • I’m an excellent driver

    I’m an excellent driver

    Holly, my wife, is currently learning to drive. We’ve recently moved out of London to a beautiful little place in the country. The only thing being… you kinda need a car.

    She’s passed her theory test and we’re booking her actual driving test in around six weeks. And she’s nervous.

    Why?

    Because she hasn’t got a huge amount of experience.

    I keep trying to tell her that you don’t really learn to drive until you’ve passed your driving test. You need to just get in the car and drive as much as possible. The more you drive, the better you’ll be.

    But she never really believed me until this weekend. We were at a wedding and then a BBQ, and at both places got to talking about her driving test.

    (Okay I kinda brought it up both times, but don’t tell anybody!)

    Anyhoo… everybody said the same thing as me. You just need to pass your test as quickly as possible and then drive as much as possible.

    Which is exactly the same as internet marketing.

    I can give you guidance, I can give you advice, but like driving you have to jump in and just do it. That’s the only way you’re gonna get good.

    Stop over-thinking and just do. There’s nothing so bad that can happen to you online that you can’t recover from it.

    And if you’d like this driving instructors manual. Here’s the early-bird registration to Business Ignition:

    www.michaelwilding.com/mw-early-bird/

    See you soon,

    Michael

    P.S. I’ve finished editing the Business Ignition manual and am waiting for the sample copy to arrive. If I’m happy with it, then the release date will be soon. And I’m toying with the idea of giving the people on my early-bird registration list a lifetime discount. Not decided yet, but it’s worth the chance 😉

  • Will Smith says it right when he says…

    Will Smith says it right when he says…

    “If you’re not making someone else’s life better, than you are wasting your time. Your life will become better by making other people’s lives better.”

    I’ve found this to be true in every aspect of life, including my online businesses.

    If you’re still focusing your online business with the mindset of how can I make more money, how quickly can I make more money, when will things start working for me. Then the most likely answer is… it ain’t.

    Start looking at how your product can make someone else’s life better. How your product can help someone else achieve their dreams. How you can lessen someone else’s pain.

    Do this and you’ll find that customers come to you. Do this and your business will begin to grow. Do this and you will be ahead of 99% of people online who are only interested in helping themselves.

    And if you’re prepared to do that and you want some knowledge on how to implement this incredible product you’re going to be sharing. Then you can register here to get notified when my book is released.
