To be frank, when I began I always viewed A-list bloggers like John Chow and Shoemoney as big things. But after a while I realised that there is no such thing as a problogger. You write good content and attract readers and you’re better than the rest.

How true, how true. I found my way here through a mastermind group of peers I belong to. Its so important to associate with people that have dreams and are like minded. The support you receive in a group like this will stay with you to success and beyond. Relationships like these benefit all concerned.
Great stuff Yaro.

Thanks for the post. What a great read. I actually emailed it to myself for a later read. I am a firm believer in that you become who you hang around. Everything in your post I knew but somehow forgot. Life gets in the way, you forgot what got you to the top. The comment that kept on coming back to me in your post was…..

“The only time when money feels like a big deal is when you don’t have it. This unfortunately is when emotions like jealousy, envy, bitterness and anger can surface, when you see that others have money.”

Just these lines have made me change the way I rethink about money. Thanks, Mike

I agree. The good times are over and they’re not coming back. 2010 and 2011 will see the total destruction of our economy and defeat of our military forces on a global scale. People will be praying in the streets, even atheists, but it will be too late. It’s all said and done.

I’ve been hearing a lot about Rich Schefren lately and just took out the time to check out his website. I’m impressed so far, and might check out more stuff by him. Is he having a membership website or something similar?

Its always been said that those who you hang out with are reflections of you, and if they are negative you should drop them. Sometimes its hard for people to see that they are being negative and even harder to drop them because you also have to think about: do you have a backup group you can cling to after them? Like many things, Its easier said then done.

The Law of ‘You Get What You Focus Upon’ (part of The Secret, The Aladdin Principle etc) is also stri#ongly at work here.

I know many who say “It’s OK …. sure they think I’m crazy, but I can handle them” or “I just ignore their comments and jibes” or “I can win an argument with them any day!”.

But all this is sapping your energy and getting your attention. It’s like a payload in your mind … it’s like spam in your mental mailbox.

And if you spen time on this AT ALL …. then that’s what you’ll get.

We DO have to say “Thanks and Goodbye” to these people. ‘Putting up with them’ isn’t an option for success.

Great post and very informative! I guess what you’re saying is that in this business it’s who you know AND what you know. You really have to have both in order to succeed in this market place.
I loved that you brought up the fact of how we are only as good as our peer group. Many of us don’t realize it or don’t want to admit it, but our friends aren’t inspiring us to do better but dragging us down – so true.
Keep up the great work!
