See how easy that makes it for prospect?

All he has to do is take a couple of seconds to reply and he'll be rid of you for good (hopefully). :P

The prospect has no real hassles with having to take much time to think up how to word a reply.

It's all done for him.

And should prospect need to check things out before he can give you a final answer, be certain to send prospect a follow-up email (like template above) 1-7 days after you receive prospect's answer.

The follow-up email can sit in his email box and be available to him when he does finally have answer to your question.

Remember, more your prospects have to think or work, less chance you'll have of receiving that reply. Ever.

Do as much of work as you can for them.

Have you ever noticed people taking negative actions like hanging out at local dive bar every day after work, spending all their money on liquor and fun, and then complaining that they're broke and can never catch a "break"? Have you ever noticed people who confide to their family and friends that they can't find love, yet they never leave house or put themselves in situations (or on TV) to meet new people? But haven't you also noticed people who surround themselves with positive influences, work hard, are accountable, plan for future, and "create" their own breaks?

In my new friend's case, he was and is simply seeking love. What he got, however, was something completely different (! he was slandered in press). While he admits that he put himself in that situation to begin with, he thrives on fact that he took such a bold chance before anyone else did in history. Would he change way it turned out if he had power to do so? Of course. But he wouldn't change opportunity itself because he was one who put himself there in first place...the bottom line, he took a chance and stood by outcome.

The moral of this story (or newsletter, in this case) is presented in form of a challenge. Sit down and ask yourself this question: "What is right, and what do you wish to be different in your life?"

You might want to take a minute or two to make a list. Take accountability for all those things, both good and bad; for after all, you created them. Then simply keep doing things that are right, and work on a strategy to create new (positive) actions to stop doing things that are not.

It would be complete insa! nity to continue punching yourself in face and then complain to world that you always have a black eye...now wouldn't it?

As you work on your list, keep this mind: You are handed two major tools in life-a hammer for building and a shovel for digging. If you ever find yourself digging a hole deeper and deeper and wishing you could get out of it, just stop digging! Because, when it's all said and done . . .

We are exactly where we choose to be.

Keep Smilin' ----------
