[Earn1KaDay] Reflections, celebrations, some fun, and other updates…

by 5buckguy

Welcome back to another Earn1KaDay update.

As I’m sure you’re aware, Steve Jobs passed away all too soon this
week. Though probably few of us had the privilege of meeting him in
person, he had a great influence on many of our lives. The Mac, the
iPod, the iPad, the iPhone, and more exist because of his genius.

At one point not that long ago, a macintosh was just an apple, and
an apple was best known as a fruit.

Steve Jobs changed that. He was more than just a genius, he
was a visionary who changed lives for the better.

I was a Macintosh user in the early 80′s, I actually purchased it
specifically because it was necessary to drive the Apple
LaserPrinter, which cost $6000, the first of its kind I believe,
and I really wanted to do state of the art (at the time) desktop
publishing.

I got great mileage out of that printer and produced training
courses for my consulting business that made me a nice income for
years.

Today we could do the same desktop publishing from a printer that
costs around $100, but Apple, because of Steve Jobs, was ahead of
its time and I appreciated it then, and mourn his loss now.

It also made me think that no one, regardless of how much money
they make, no matter how much good they do for the planet, is
immortal. It also made me remember that a year ago today I was
facing surgery the next day that really worried me, and had
prepared a long letter to my survivors as to what to do if
something went wrong.

When I prepared that letter, it made me appreciate how lucky I had
been up until then, and appreciate my family and friends. A year has
passed, and I am even luckier now than I was back then.

I need to review that letter, actually, and update it, since
someday something will go wrong, to each and every one of us. We
should appreciate and reflect on that in advance, and consider it
when making decisions about what’s most important in our lives.

I know that the world won’t mourn my passing like it did for Mr.
Jobs, but still I’d love to leave behind something that people will
remember. That’s what drives me today, and I hope I can succeed.

Anyway, here’s what’s happening inside Earn1KaDay.

Notable news:

Another member of Earn1KaDay has made it to the WSO of the Day
club, and I’m thrilled that it’s my partner Rachel, for this week’s
offer of Offline Barrier Breaker. OBB solves much of the problem
that people like me would have finding and selling local business
owners on our services.

After all, not all of us are born salespeople, and tend to choke up
when it comes time to either get our feet in the door, or make an
offer to get the business.

OBB solves that, and is still available for less than $10 (it’s
already sold almost 2400 copies, and is still going strong):

It’s not unusual to see our members make WSOOTD any more, actually,
but it’s always nice when someone does it for the first time. Who’s
next?

Remember, there’s a special section in the forum called “Special
Offers (By Authors), where members offer their products at a
special price to members.

I’d rather not highlight each one individually, so that this email
doesn’t start looking like a classified ad section, but sometimes
you can get some nice bargains and support your forum friends, so
please remember to check it out next time you drop by the forum:

Reminder: If you’re new to Earn1KaDay, or didn’t remember this, all
the weekly emails, from the beginning of time, are archived on the
blog here:
http://www.earn1kaday.net/wp/

If you ever miss an email, or want to check the archives, you can
always go there and do a search.

Another reminder: I get asked (a lot) about the affiliate program
to Earn1KaDay. A thread was set up long ago with details, here:
http://www.earn1kaday.net/members/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=417

That’s just a short review of some of the highlights, there is much
more going on all the time at the forum. Don’t be a stranger
there, that’s where the primary value of your membership is, after
all. We’re not there to chat so much (though there is a lounge
there if you want to unwind), we’re there to learn from each other,
and share with each other, and as you can see from the above sample
threads, there’s a lot of that happening.

Until next week, I wish you the very best in everything.
