I wan’ t to share my profits with you.

If you are expecting to read some fancy marketing letter you will be disappointed. Although I often wish I could right such emotionally grabbing copy, I don’t think it will happen today.

I have an online business  www.label-land.com

We sell Personalized Iron-on and Sew-on labels,  Permanent Stickers and Bag Tags.

Our main customers are parents of kids going to Camp and Daycare.

In the past I have paid Google lots of money to bring me customers (via Adwords), but I have not found it to be worth the expense (last year I spent over $40,000).

This year I am going to try something different.

I am looking for partners that want to share 30% of the sales that they bring to our site.

The average sale in June of 2007 was $20.

If you are interested in partnering please sign up on our affiliate page

https://www.label-land.com/affiliate/

Once you are approved you will receive a URL link that you can post on your site or send in an email.

When someone orders through your link the affiliate system will track the sale, and you will receive the 30% commission.

The top 5 partners will share in an additional 5% bonus.

If you have any questions you can email me at

rob (at) label-land (dot) com

or call

All the best,

I have recently taken on a whole pile of obligations.

Within 2 months I have gone from zero board involvement to being on three boards, the GTA Coaches Assosiation, my child’s school board, and a community board to help people earn a livelihood. I am also getting ready to start the next phase of my coaching education at Adler School for Professional Coaching, and have decided to do an online interning project to learn how to build my blog (I will post about it in a couple of weeks).  Oh yeah, I am also trying to incorporate some new habits over the next 45 days (also a future post), which to say the least is not going as planned, with everything that is happening. This is all on top of trying to be a great Dad and Husband, exercising, and running two businesses.

I am typing this now at 2:07am and have to get up by 7:00am

Now that I see what I am up to, I think I understand why I am wiped.  On the bright side in the past couple of weeks I have been far less wasteful with my time (No T.V. or Movies), and I’m feeling a strong sense of being on the right track.

I am looking forward to going on a revitalizing hike in 10 days, hopefully my escape from the city and a reconnecting with nature will help to remove some of the physical and mental fatigue that have built up in the past weeks.

Peace and Prosperity

No. You’re not a loser.

This title was a test. I am advertising on a feed that just shows titles. I was curious to see what attracts people to read a post. If you can please leave a comment expressing your reactions to the title and why it drew you to the site, it would be appreciated.

While were on the subject of being a loser, maybe I can share a thought. A person sometimes feels like a loser for two primary reasons. One is because he mistakenly judges himself based on the status of others, and two because people treated him in such a way that made him feel degraded and worthless.

If you have pegged yourself as a loser through your own mistaken perceptions, STOP. In one way or another you have value to share with the world. We are not meant to be the same as everyone else, you have something unique within you that no other person in the world has. If you spend your life being down on yourself you might end up leaving this world without adding your part to it, and as such we will be incomplete.

If you have been degraded by others, know that they only due this due to their own insecurities. Unfortunately some people have a hard time raising themselves to greatness through their own efforts, they have to knock others down so it appears like they are moving higher, when in truth they lead a life of stagnation. I’m sure you have seen some of these people at you high school reunions, they never really amounted to anything because they never made the effort to offer real value.

Lastly if you are ever in a situation where you are about to degrade someone, know in your mind that when you do such a thing it is no different than if you took a knife and rammed it into their heart. Our begging is two tiny cells, our end is dust, who are we to think we are better than someone else, why do we think it is OK to degrade someone because they are different then us.

We are all great.
