I think metaphors are the best way to make others understand what you mean, especially as they don't feel it's direct advise. I would add a couple of points to this metaphor: - Believe in yourself and those who are part of your team. - Distribute responsibilities according to capacities Thanks for sharing. Hi!

And this was not just another "big fish" story. Great photos, but an even better lesson to apply to our marketing efforts. Keep up the good work!

My thought beyond that is this....If you are a novice and you really know nothing about internet marketing or businesses of any kind, how can you make the right choice? There are so many programs out there and they all promise to be the best. How can an inexperinced person ever sort through all the hype to find the very best one for them?

My moral of the story would be... If it's not for you, set it free. Don't keep what you can't use. So much time is wasted on junk fish that your hooks not in the water when the really big one swims by. You have to have your hook in place when opportunity swims by. Keep up the great work. Loved learning from you in Sandusky. Fantastic seminar!!! Carol and Denis Truly a great story, and with pictures!!! My moral of the story would be… If it’s not for you, set it free.

The pictures were awesome as well! Perhaps the best lesson there, though, is #1 - Be Prepared. I have a feeling that this is one of the lessons that required proof and that most reading won't believe it. Let me tell you -- from my own personal experience! -- this one happens WAY too often! I can give you example after example, such as: * Site opens day #1 and gets bombed with traffic; by end of day, PayPal account #1 is shut down because of "unusual business activity". Day 2, PayPal account #2 gets shut down for same reason. Day 3, the brand new merchant account gets shut down. Can you guess what happens Day 4? Yep, website gets shut down. This was just one example, but it happens all the time! "Be prepared" is a really important lesson to remember! Thanks for some great content! Socrates:
