My strange yet powerful secret, part 2

A reader asks the following questions, after reading my post titled "My strange yet powerful secret."

PETER: Here's what I want to tell you: I have the incredible feeling that this year, I'll be getting super rich. Just as I wanted and actually predicted at the beginning of this year. Things just happen so fast. The manifestation process is truly working.

READER: Are you really going to become a millionaire this year?

PETER: It looks like it. Here's a clue to how I will do it: Iron Man. Just watch that movie, and you'll understand.

READER: What do you mean by "manifestation process"?

PETER: Read the three books written by Esther Hicks. Read also Harv Eker's Secrets of the Millionaire Mind. They're talking about the conscious (and unconscious) design and engineering of the manifestation process. The process whereby your feelings, thoughts and actions turn into reality.

READER: You wrote: "My fortune will happen in the information and advice publishing industry, although I plan to launch businesses outside of that industry." Why did you choose the information and advice industry?

PETER: Information is what publishers or teachers supply. Advice is when the information is APPLIED to a specific client situation. That is PRECISELY where the value of the information comes out. In other words, advice is what clients pay for, while information is what customers pay for. Another way to put it is that clients pay for solutions while customers pay for products.

READER: So customers buy a book, which is a product, but clients don't want to buy a book. They want to buy an actual recipe or an actual solution, like a step-by-step process that they can use to get RESULTS and solve their problems.

PETER: You totally understand it, hombre!

READER: You wrote that "There is a mysterious flow of incredible, powerful and highly profitable business ideas that keep coming to my little brain!" How did you achieve that?

PETER: A person can only look in ONE direction at a time. Try, for instance, to look at the sky while looking down at your feet. You can't, right? Same thing with your mind. You CANNOT point your mind in two directions at the same time. Wherever you point your mind, that is where your life is going. Let me repeat that super important principle: WHEREVER YOU FOCUS YOUR MIND, THAT IS WHERE YOUR LIFE IS GOING. And since what we focus on expands, then it becomes harder and harder to change direction once our mind is set in one direction. This is why it will be much harder for baby boomers to become entrepreneurs than for members of Gen Y. But don't cry for the boomers, they have enough money to take care of themselves! Gen Y may have less capital, but once they get into business -- and trust me, they WILL -- they will financially accelerate faster than anything imaginable. Just look at how the Youtube founders did it, or what the teenager Ashley Qualls did it with Whateverlife.com.

READER: Aren't they rather exceptional? I mean, can we really use those extreme examples when it comes to ordinary people?

PETER: Any person has the capacity to create enormous wealth. We are born wealthy. Before I forget, grab a free copy of Bob Proctor's book, You Were Born Rich, on the Internet. Email me if you can't find it. He's giving it away for free.

READER: If we all have the capacity to create enormous wealth, how come most people haven't achieved it?

PETER: They are stopping themselves. They are psychologically resisting the idea that they are truly millionaires inside, even 8- or 9-figure multimillionaires. I'm coaching many people, and I can feel it when my clients have internal resistance. I can't help them much on that score. At the same time, I'm also consulting for entrepreneurs that have absolutely NO resistance to the idea that they deserve to get super rich. They're really fun to work with.

READER: You talked about your having "a simple digital product which can sell for as little as $10 and can be sold worldwide via Internet." Here's what I don't understand: how do you actually reach all those people on the Internet? The fact that they CAN be reached, doesn't mean they WILL be reached, right? Unless you have a huge database of millions of emails?...

PETER: I don't have such a database, you're right. But we live in a world where Facebook has over 70 million users, and Linkedin has over 21 million users. So the key is simply to create an affiliate program whereby people who sell your products, will get a big reward -- at least 30% in commission. Some people even give away 100% of the commission. Why? Because afterwards, they are in touch directly with the customers, and can sell back-end products. Back-end is where fortunes are made. Remember, "Give up the rook to capture the king." I will write more later on about that strategy, which is based on the game of chess.

READER: You mentioned the portal PowerKnowledge.net. What is your big goal for that portal?

PETER: Are you sure you want to know? Okay, here goes: The goal is to make the content on PowerKnowledge.net as easily accessible as electricity. That is, every household and organization will be able to "plug" into the PowerKnowledge... warehouse, or whatever the name will be when we get that big.

READER: You think really big...

PETER: As I mentioned before, all humans can think big and thus access an inner world FULL of millionaire ideas. Most people just don't do it. They turn their gaze outward, they watch the news about what is going on in countries they've never visited and will most likely never visit in their lifetime. People forget that real power lies within, inside of us. Most people read or watch the news, and are filled with fear. If a person is serious about becoming wealthy, I recommend that he/she watch TV no more than one hour per day. He/she should also read at least one book per week. You don't even have to read the WHOLE book. Just browse through a book, jot down the best idea that you can implement, and then go implement it! If the results are not good, the book is probably not worth reading in its entirety. In other words, use things and objects and technologies to reach YOUR goal. Don't read a whole book just because the author says you should! Same with Linkedin. Most people use it for networking, which is a very unprofitable use of that social networking site. I use it to discover leads. Once again, we go back to people's resistance to making money and getting rich. It's quite ridiculous, because you cannot get rich unless you provide value to people. So resisting the idea of getting rich, basically means you refuse to help as many people as you can.

READER: Wow, a lot of valuable material here! I'll stop and reflect on it. Thanks!

PETER: You're welcome.
