Bah Millennium Humbug!
by Mike Banks Valentine
I just want to take this opportunity to say that I never did
believe that the Y2K bug was anything more than a dust mite.
There were those who would have us believe it was like the
coming of the locusts to destroy life as we know it. But when
my wife had dreams of nuclear Armageddon because of those
doom saying radio reports she heard and asked me did I really
think it was going to be alright, I had to draw the line.
So, I admit that we bought a case or two of bottled water
and a few canned goods . . . just in case the county water
works was down for a day and we had to have Dinty Moore by
candle light. It would be romantic and a little thrilling to
live by our wits as if from a scene out of Mad Max! Now I
have to actually eat that nasty canned stuff we bought.
I'll wager it's a good year for donations of canned goods to
charity drives as folks realize that they panicked over the
possibility of being cold, in the dark and hungry for a short
time. Something that countless people face on a daily basis.
If nothing else, this is a better time to reflect on how truly
lucky we really are. Those of us with the means to buy those
millennium bug infested computers that frightened us witless
are not likely to be attacked by anything worse than a disk
error or just possibly some faulty software.
My video player does think it's 1972, but I've never seen a
bad date cause such mass hysteria. I think the programmers
have all had one over on us, had a good laugh and gone back
to work creating some valuable software, instead of twiddling
with millions of line of old code to find out if it's 1900
or 2000.
I'd like to suggest that we use this opportunity to think
about those that must face each day cold, hungry and without
electricity or even shelter. Then donate the same amount of
energy that we put into worrying about failing computer chips
into helping those less fortunate than ourselves.
I know someone that developed a web site meant only to fret over
Y2K. They attended community meetings on the subject, stored
up a years worth of food and bought weapons to fight off
those who might attempt to take any of it away. I wonder how
much energy he will spend on the homeless and hungry now that
he is assured of surviving the millennium bug.

"The Real Secret To Creating Wealth On-Line"
Want to learn the "Real" secret to establishing a successful
presence on the internet? Want to learn how to earn an extra
$500 plus per month marketing on the net? Well, its really quite
simple, but requires a lot of hard work to accomplish.
Hard work you say! Yes, that's what I said. You read about all
the "heavy hitters" on the net that are pulling in thousands
of
dollars every month marketing products on the net. It appears
from the surface that making money on the net is as easy as
following a few simple marketing steps and then just raking in
the profits. Well maybe you need to take a closer look at all
those successful internet marketer to find out their "little"
secret.
Let look at a great example of what I am talking about.
Baseball, the great American sport. Everyone watched Mark
Mcquire hit all those home runs last year. Man, wasn't that
great. It looked so easy as he just stood at the plate and
hammered all those balls out of the park. The point here is that
what you saw last year was the result of many of years of
hard work on his part developing the skills and experience
necessary to put him on top.
What you saw him do last year was the end result of the 'hard
work' and persistence that earned him a great reward. If you
asked him what was the real secret to his success, I'd bet that
he would say persistence. So, what does all of this have to do
with you and making money marketing on the net? Persistence
is the secret that you've been looking for to help you succeed
on
the net.
So, what is persistence anyway? Here's the definition of persist.
1. to go on resolutely or stubbornly in spite of opposition,
importunity, or warning. 2. to remain unchanged or fixed in a
specified character, condition, or position. 3. to be insistent
in
the repetition or pressing of an utterance (as a question or an
opinion). 4. to continue to exist esp. past a usual, expected,
or
normal time.
Have you practiced persistence in your Internet marketing
career? Have you continued on resolutely or stubbornly in spite
of opposition, importunity, or warning? Internet marketing is
a
profession. It's a learned process that can only be successfully
accomplished by those who persist. Persistence will teach you
the lessons that you need in order to succeed in any business
venture. It's really quite simple, but requires an earnest effort
on your part.
While this article has not taught you any great web promotion
trick, email marketing secret or money making product, your
success in establishing a profitable business on the net is
dependent how you go about gaining the experience necessary
to succeed. Persistence is the key. Now that it has been
revealed to you use it and you will succeed!
