About 3 months ago I decided to move to Cyprus. I went to see Mark Vurnum in November for some consultancy and kind of really liked the place…

Especially the fact that it was sunny and warm in November.

So while I was getting ready I realised that most of our life is based around accumulating things, and I was about to do the opposite – get rid of things, simplify and declutter. Great feeling. Sold my car, gave up a storage unit and gave away all the stuff in there…

Truth is you think you’ll miss that stuff but you actually don’t – at least I don’t. Tom calls it ‘mental ram’ – stuff that takes some of your attention and thinking time up everyday. Every property you own, every thing you possess… it has a ‘maintenance trail’.

I also want to share a statistic regarding how ‘happiness’ and ‘income’ are related. Below $60,000 US there is a direct connection between happiness and income, but guess what happens above? (watch the video to find out more)

Moving out here is showing to my students and friends that you can do what you want if you go after it. The internet lifestyle – is real.

keep your dreams – pursue them

to your success – if this is work, then let’s have some more of it

PS: btw, people asked me about the music at the end of the video. It’s Peppino D’Agostino. Check him out. He is amazing.

PPS: let me know your thoughts, please comment on this post.

James and I wanted to meet Mark V, creator of the incredible system and hang out strategising and talking 2010…

What I loved about it so far: weather, food, making recurring passive income, working in the sunshine…. having some cool dinner conversations and meeting great IM guys….

Back in a few days… question: could you live like this…. I start thinking I could. – To be explored.

James and I both talked a lot about having taken the leap of faith and quitting day jobs to live this amazing new life of choice and freedom! bring it on!

to your success

I will be down in Pinewood studios being interviewed for SWAT.tv… they are a online TV station (they are also on sky I think) and they have thousands of viewers… cool!

On the same day – (why is it always on the same day – I got nothing else on next week!) I will be speaking at the yes! group in London…. you can book your ticket for £15 here: http://www.yesgroup.org.uk/index.php?option=com_registrationpro&Itemid=138

weird is that I wanted to speak at the yes! group for over a year… I applied and asked and – NOTHING… then – one day (last week!) I had a reply to one of my broadcast emails (the one which said ‘Why working from home SUCKS …) and they asked ME to speak!

The guys from the yes group titled my talk ‘ From Loser to Inspirational Winner’. LOL. I have 45 minutes and my main outcome is to get everyone there inspired and to believe they can do whatever they want.

I hope to see you there, guys…

Daniel

PS: Here is a video I did yesterday in Manchester… I have a unusual ‘family’ connection with Manchester… and – it’s not what you think (l0l)

With the launch of Yibbies and the two 3 day workshops coming up I just felt I couldn’t do it justice….

So instead I decided to take my first in many working breaks abroad, embracing the internet lifestyle. I am here with my business partner James and both our partners….

check out the video below and please note: this is NOT a watch me I am so cool I am a millionaire BS…. it’s a concept I would love many more people to try and see how it feels for them…. for me? it feels great!

Btw, the video was done with the new ipod nano… love it… check it out in an apple store near you!

as always, please let me have your thoughts and feedback in the comment section below….

This is James here, fellow Internet Buddy of Daniel, and I’m going to let you in on a secret…

I’m going out on a limb here as Daniel doesn’t know I’ve written this post at all -  and frankly he might not even be that chuffed about it.

But what the heck, sometimes you’ve got to roll the dice and today I feel its my duty to let you know that Daniel, once again, needs your help. To those of you who came to support Daniel when he appeared on stage in front of 1000 people in London recently, let me tell you Daniel *really* appreciated your help.

Fortunately today’s assignment (should you be willing to accept…) is MUCH simpler

Daniel’s currently speaking RIGHT NOW in front of a group of coaches at Dan Bradbury’s Marketing Seminar in Heathrow. You see, he’s one of only THREE people who are competing for a coveted prize and title of ‘2009 Marketer of the Year’ (from among Dan B’s group).

Whoever wins apparently gets to drive around in some fancy car, or something, for a year. However, anyone who knows Daniel understands that he could care less about flashy cars… What *is* important to him, just occasionally, is to get a bit of recognition that he has been able to help people improve their lives and their businesses.

Since I’ve known Daniel my own personal life has changed radically… and for the better. Not only have I found a real friend, but also an amazing business partner and together we’re looking forward to bringing more prosperity and work/life balance to as many people as possible over the next 12 months and beyond…

So, here’s the deal, I know that if Daniel doesn’t win this award he’ll feel like he’s failed to make the sort of difference that makes a real impact on people’s lives – and he’ll be really upset…

I know… and you know… how *great* an injustice that would be

So please, leave a comment below to let everyone at the event know just how much and why Daniel has made an impact on your lives in the last 12 months.

*If* you do… then surely justice will be done… and Daniel’s fear of failure will literally be blown away.

Best wishes, James Watson.

Well, you will have to watch the 1 minute video. In case you are wondering why I look the way I look? It was 7:40 in the morning and the sun was right in my eyes.

to your success

Daniel

PS: I am looking forward to meeting up very soon…. I have my birthday coming up in October and I am planning to invite all of you… I had a great idea while reading the millionaire code. I let you know soon so that you can make arrangements…

I am actually getting tired of some of what happens in my industry. so much hype and BS… I sometimes don’t even want to go on stage – but then I think if I don’t go on then there is no chance I can work with people and teach them and they will most likely buy someone else’s course who cares less and buggers off to somewhere far away after the event….

anyway. went to the gym this morning and learned a few lessons of life. Affirm the truth if you want to make progress. Success is subjective and then later on – being stupid is not a problem (as long as you are not being stupid all the time)…

Watch the video below, give me feedback or comments please.

to your success – for real

Daniel

Now I know after looking at many products, my own included, that we make it too hard for people to succeed. Not on purpose, but most people looking at internet marketing don’t want to learn all about internet marketing – they just want to make money.

I realise that trying to teach them product creation, conversion strategies and membership sites (just to name a few) is for 1-2% of people only… most want the results only…what to do?

People want to learn about IM, and so they should, but along side their job to learn their is sooo much to learn and it changes all the time.

What we need is a EARN as you LEARN model, where we teach the most important tasks first (Traffic!) and then focus on marketing. Then pay people high affiliate commissions (50%) on coninuity models of education so they get paid as they learn more. If they choose to, they can then apply the traffic and marketing skills to their niche or business and learn about product creation.

This is what I want to do. I am working on it right now. Make more people more money and make some along the way as well

Speak soon

Daniel

I didn’t have a one day seminar… until then I suppose. I remember preparing for months. I remember being so worried about not having enough to say, enough to share, worried about not being enough.

that is how it all began. I remember interviewing Armand Morin and some other Internet Marketing greats in September 2007 in London. I went on the stage in the evening and I told myself. In 2 years I will be on stage with them!

The ’secret’ – as they call it – is actually quite obvious. If you set an intention and work towards it – it will manifest. (I actually send an email to Rhonda telling her she should call it the ‘obvious’ but I suspect it wouldn’t have sold so many copies

so why am I telling you all this and why is this post called comfort zone stretch?

Because this September, just 2 years after interviewing some of the big guys… I will be on stage as one of the speakers with them… I am not scared, not a lot at least… they made 30 Million $$$, I made some as well….

I can only be myself and there is always more to learn…. so until very soon…

Now that they are gone I am faced with the freedom that means no more excuses… what am I to do? settle for what? any advice accepted

Daniel
