THE CONTEST IS OVER NOW.

Make your first $10 or more in next 21 days and ‘win’ over $5,000 price.

Here is Absolutely Easy Way to get paid for making money for yourself and your family.

You have between today and 30th of May to join this contest. We will stop accepting participants on 31st of May. The contest proper will start on June 1st.

You are where you are because of who you do or not do yesterday. It has a lot to do with your habits. There is no doubt about the fact that you are passionate about making money online. You go on internet everyday to make that a reality. But what did you do when you go online?

Here is common scenario…

You go online (either with your own dial up internet access or internet cafe). You open www.yahoomail.com (or gmail.com). You started reading through hundreds of email that are already waiting for you from ‘WOLRD gurus’ and ‘AMERICAN and BRITISH’ phishers.

You are first attracted to American or British phishers email because the subject of the mail is scintillating. It is about the ‘lottery’ you just won. You end up spending about 20 minutes clicking the button thinking about how to cash money you just won without playing the game.

Hey time is going!

You quickly open the mail from ‘world guru’ promising you $40,000 a week within next 14 days. It looks interesting because it is about latest internet application that vomits cash like mad. The email leads you to landing page website where you are first asked to fill short form to receive the secret report.
Immediately you submit the form you are automatically redirected to very lengthy sales page on the latest secrets. You either read the mail online or print it out.

Next you log on yahoo messenger to chat with your friend that just travel to Canada or old internet friend. The discussion takes another 30mins.

And it goes on and on like that.

This has become habit. It is a non productive habit.

A habit is what we do automatically. But it can be changed.

It’s been said that it only takes 21 days to instill a new habit - that’s all.

Just concentrate on doing something in a different manner for 21 days and it will become a habit. Or, concentrate on not doing something for 21 days and you’ll lose the habit.

If your online habit for some time has been ‘producing the result’ you desire it is time to change it.

2008 - First 100 days Challenge

Building team of nigerian internet marketing millionaires in 100 days.

Two days ago while discussing with one of my US based Internet marketing multi-millionaire mentor about our new mastermind he requested for our group target for first 100 days in 2008.

Since our first group meeting is still few days away, I told him I will contact him after our meeting. He rejected my excuse. He said that I should come up with a figure that is realistic for all members within first 100 days using the same system that I have already.

Here we go - I suggested $240,000 as our target.

Actually, he said that is a bit low but I explain to him that some of the members are complete beginner.

So guys, we now of a challenge for the first 100 days of 2008.

It is $240,000 challenge - In other word we are having N30,000,000 (million naira) challenge.

Are you ready for this challenge.

What this means is that within first 100days our individual earnings and group earnings added together must reach $240,000 (N30Million naira).

This is a big challenge but I believe 100% that is achievable.

Why am I sending this message to everybody.

Three reasons -

1. One thing that has worked for me in past is making my targets public. It has afftected my performance, efficiency and result alot in the past. Knowing that its a must I achieve it or face the consequence.

2. To let other members know as well that hundreds of other nigerians now knows about their target for the first 100 days. It will surely have same effect.

3. To motivate 6 more people that like challenge like this to come in and be part of us.

What this challenge means is that after the first one hundred days this mastermind group will be a million naira group. Which automatically means members are millionaires.

This is not a promise. It is a challenge. And I know we will even surpass it.

Those that have been to our office in past few days must understand that 2008 is going to be our best year ever.
