Hi there
Got thinking about names again today.
When I was at school (back in the dark ages!) we always had nicknames for the teachers and most of our fellow prisoners oops sorry pupils.
In fact I was always called Percy or Perce. I don't know why but even today if I ran into anyone I knew from school they would call me Perce as I don't think they ever knew me as John. Strange isn't it?
Actually if you had a certain surname then you would be likely to be called by the first name associated with that name. For example all Wilsons were called Tug, Clarks were always Nobby, Frosts were Dusty etc.
You don't find that now do you. I wonder why not? Answers on a postcard please!!
Listened to a great Webinar this evening from the six figure mentors group of which I am a member. Very interesting. Will help me with my internet business no end.
Thought for today: What have you learned new today?
Joke for today:- Here's to alcohol-the cause of and the sokution to all of life's problems. Homer Simpson

Going on holiday?
I received and have put out to my internet marketing list some interesting thoughts about holiday planning.
It's interesting how just before we go on holiday most of us make lists so that we are sure we have done everything that needs to be done before we go.
You know like cancel the papers check the passport is in order etc.
It seems to work quite well doing this list.
So why don't we do this all the time?
If we make a list of 6 things we must do the next day before we go to bed and then look at this list the next morning and ensure we complete everything we can before the day is out we start to create a great new habit.
It is estimated that after 20 days the new habit is so ingrained we become much more productive.
Make sense to me!
Thought for today. Are you going to try it?
Joke for today: Parent to child. What did you learn at school today? Child. Not enough I have to go back tomorrow.
On this day:- June 24th
In 1876 it was Custer's last stand!
In 1990 the first two women Angican priests were ordained

Can't Do Right for Doing Wrong
The long and winding road going downwards rather then heavenwards is as they say paved with good intentions. Which probably means you have lots of stones inscribed with the slogans " Coulda, Woulda, Shoulda". I'm feeling like this when it comes to this whole weird world of blogging. Could I have spent more time researching blogs before I started, should I have asked for more advice from more experienced bloggers in my turn key group and would I have been more effective if I can come up with a better email address then the huge long one I struggle to remember.
Still on the plus side I do feel I am learning a lot about blogging. It certainly seems to be a subject where the learning comes from doing rather then reading. I feel that when my Son talks about blogs I have at least a vague understanding of what he's going on about. Plus I know what people mean these days when they talk about Twitter. I thought that was something that birds and old ladies did.
Althoug it's slower than I would like right now I do feel that my internet business is starting to improve based on this practical experience. It's not easy but then again nothing worthwhile is.
Thought for the Day: Banish your doubts.
Joke of the Day: Marriage is not a lottery - you get a chance in a lottery
Action for the Day: Embrace a cliche 'Don't worry be happy'
Till next time folks,
John

Here I am again
Well here I am again. You know that Young Age Pensioner with the batty dog.
I “rescued” him from a kennel last year. He had been found wandering and no one claimed him. I tell him I’m not surprised!! He is an English Springer Spaniel who was given the name of Owen. No wonder he is batty. Fancy giving an English Spaniel a Welsh name! He is not a Gorgi! Any rate he is great fun even if he is a handful.
I have been ploughing on with getting my head round some of the excellent information in the back office of My Internet Business and Turnkey Marketing. Yesterday I started looking at Ezines. I didn’t even know what an Ezine was really so the masses of information in the back office was really helpful particularly the step by step methods given. There is no doubt that once I have studied all the information available and visited the other recommended sites I will be an expert!!! (Have you noticed the advertisements under the “I am a PC banner “where they are using young children as an example as to how easy the systems are? The true test of how easy it is to be a PC is when old, sorry young, fogies like me are up to speed!)
Thought for the day.
If success was easy we’d all be successful so don’t be afraid to take baby steps. Don’t worry that others may laugh or see you as weak because every one had to start at one time. It is better to take baby steps than end up doing nothing at all. This is very much me with My Internet Business!
Joke of the day
A postman (or woman, we mustn’t be sexiest!) approached a house where there were new occupiers. Just as he approached the door a large dog came bounding out and chased him/her back down the front path. Unfortunately his hat fell off and the dog grabbed it. After slamming the gate shut on the dog the furious postman waited whilst the owner of the dog strolled down the front path.. As soon as the owner got near enough the postman told the owner exactly what he thought of his dog!! I’m too polite to give the actual words!. However all the owner said was “so what”. At this the postman screamed “ I don’t like your attitude to which the laid back owner replied “It’s not “my hat he chewed” but yours!! Boom Boom.
Objective for today. Give a smile to at least one stranger.
Catch you later. Have fun. As Owen would say “go chase de rabbits” (Don’t worry he never catches them)

One small step
A great philosopher once wrote, well to be honest I'm not sure if he was that great, or even a philosopher, in fact he may have been Homer Simpson, well regardless of who it was, someone said that every great journey must start with a small step.
Well my great journey into the mysteries of blogging begins here. With this post, my first post and hopefully the first of many as I share with you my journey into setting up my Internet Business.
For those of you who are wondering Y.A.P stands for Young Aged Pensioner. I made be retired but I am not old. An OAP is someone you see hobbling around a rest home and I have no plans to see one of those just yet. Even if my batty Dog and crazy family seem to be doing their best to send me round the bend enough so I can go into one.
I'm sure some of you might be thinking “Oh he's just some salesman whose going on about his Internet business and his TurnKey marketing to sucker me to something which is really complicated and you'd need a degree to figure out"
Not at all, I am just like you. I searched the web, I found Turn Key and IMB and like everyone I will be starting from the bottom as well. I don't expect it to be easy but then again nothing worthwhile ever is but I do know it will be worth it
So make sure you check back regularly as I will be updating you all on a regular basis to what I'm up to and maybe my thoughts on what's going on in the world today.
See you Soon,
John
