The Question

January 5th, 2010 by Clayton

So a few weeks ago, I was got an e-mail from super bad-ass internet marketer Frank Kern about this holiday DVD he was giving away for free as a way to give back to the community. I got it and watched it.
The DVD is a presentation he gave at some seminar. He details [...]

Gratitude

November 25th, 2009 by Clayton

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving Day in the United States.  Maybe it’s a bit cheesy, but I feel like I’d like to take a moment to reflect on what I’m thankful for this year.
There’s still over a month left, but this year has been pretty wild so far.  I’ve gone through the grueling ordeal of completing a [...]

This Moment is Your Point of Power

October 21st, 2009 by Clayton

After having a discussion with my girlfriend about why some people are “losers” I wanted to make a post here on the topic.  I imagine if you made it to my blog, you probably don’t believe in luck and that whether or not certain people end up rich or poor is just based on a [...]

Template Living

October 16th, 2009 by Clayton

One interesting thing about doing keyword research is that you get a hidden peek into what people actually search for in search engines.  Here you have the unedited truth about people’s desires and interests.  Some keywords are rather mysterious.  Why would thousands of people search “boyfriend me” each month, and what could they possibly be [...]

Three Ways to Ensure You Fail at Anything

October 12th, 2009 by Clayton

So, in doing the diet I’ve been reading the tons and tons of comments on Tim’s blog.  A lot of them are really annoying.  Stuff like:
“I don’t like beans, can I eat cereal instead?”
“I can’t live without milk, can I put milk in the diet?”
“I know you said no bread, but can I eat bread [...]

Moving Forward

October 9th, 2009 by Clayton

So, my first two websites are up and running.  I’m aggressively building backlinks to improve their search engine rankings and bring in more than the small trickle of traffic.
Waiting for a website to rank is pretty maddening.  It’s totally outside of my control and I’m a very impatient person.  So, I’m just distracting myself by [...]

A Sale!

October 5th, 2009 by Clayton

I made a sale yesterday.  Sure, I’ve made sales before, but this one was different.
I didn’t have to pay for it.  The traffic came totally free through SEO.
In these early days, when I log into Clickbank and see those rare little spikes indicating a sale, I really can’t believe my eyes.  It seems unreal.  I [...]

Broke

October 2nd, 2009 by Clayton

Well.  I just want to make it clear that I’m totally broke.  I have about $1700 to my name and it’ll be $1200 after I pay rent today.  Times are pretty tough.  And I picked the worst time to graduate from school.
One thing I do have is time, which I’m pouring into affiliate marketing.  I’m [...]

Don’t Give Up on Your Dreams

September 30th, 2009 by Clayton

If you’re trying to change something in your life, or do something that scares you, you must first solidify your goals in your own mind.  Tell yourself over and over again that what you want is indeed possible.  Seek out others that have done what you want and listen only to them.  Don’t let people [...]

…A Single Step

September 21st, 2009 by Clayton

So, here I am beginning this blog.  I’m here documenting my journey toward a more intentional life.  I’m questioning things that society tells us to do.  And I’m striving for a life that is truly unique, truly my own.  I want to consciously choose as much as I can instead of sleepwalking through life.  I [...]
