Ab Exercises of 41 Year Old Ripped Freak
Earlier this morning two amazing things happened. First, I gave you my 3-exercise “rip-up-your-abs” circuit. And second, here in Denver, I had breakfast two tables away from 43-year old pro hockey player, Teemu Selanne. Growing up, I used to watch a lot of hockey, and Selanne was a legend. Today, he’s an inspiration to ALL…

Read MoreInspired to Create a New Special Event
On Sunday I did something unusual. No, it wasn’t the amazing kettlebell workout I did, nor was it the delicious bowl of “Fro-Pro” that I made. (Details about both are below.) Instead, the unusual thing I did was really what I did NOT do. You see, for the first time in a long, long, long…

Last September I met a friendly fella. It was a bit surprising though… …because you could tell he was a rough-and-tumble scrappy old veteran that had spent years in New York City. But the day we met, down in Asheville, North Carolina, at Joel Marion’s affiliate party last year, I could immediately tell that John…

Read MoreHow To Identify Opportunity
I’m always disappointed when great marketers like Frank Kern and John Reese stop writing emails. But I can’t blame them. They’ve found easier ways to make money without all the headaches that come from being an IM superstar (then again, they are often to blame for those headaches…). Back when he was still releasing content,…
