How I beat by goal by more than 800%!

subject: How I beat by goal by more than 800%!


Wow!

I'm so grateful for the incredible amount of support and encouragement I've received in the last three days.

So many of you have let me know how many people you've passed the email about my book launch to.

Something dramatic happened that I just have to share...

I made a commitment to myself (and my coach) that I would get this book launch notice out to at least 1000 people.

I thought that was going to be a stretch for me because I only had about 580 people on my personal contact list.

... that meant I needed to find at least 420 people who I'm not currently in touch with.

So I asked for help and here's what happened...

Many of you sent my note along to 2, 3, 10, 20 people... in total, these 'small' drips added up to over 200 people.

One person responded and told me that they forwarded my note to 212 people.

If you're doing the math you'll notice at this point I'm just shy of my goal of 1000 names.

If you know me, you'll know that I'm a very emotional person... at this point I was feeling so overwhelmed with gratitude for this show of support that tears were welling up in my eyes.

Then my friend Seymour Segnit sent me a note and pushed me over the edge.

And then some.

You see, Seymour is President of a company called 'Change That's Right Now' - he specializes in helping people overcome their fears, phobia and anxiety.

Well, Seymour emailed me to let me know that he sent my note to his entire client list... he pushed me over the 1000 goal mark - by sending my message to over 7800
unique people in his database!

In total I reached a whopping 8685 people with my message.

That's 868.5% more than my goal.

You're probably wondering what the moral of the story is. Well, here's what I got out of it.

You can't always do everything you dream of by yourself. But when you set the intention, ask for help and let the Universe take care of the rest, you can achieve whatever you desire...

And there's a good chance you'll get even more than you ever expected.

Thank you, thank you, thank you to everyone who supported this.

Paul

My New Book!





I want to tell you about a new book that I have the privilege to be a co-author in.

The book is titled “101 Great Ways to Improve Your Life: Volume 3,” and it is a compilation of 101 articles with practical, solid advice on how you can finally take action and improve your life.

I am extremely excited to be a part of this, and am equally excited to be a contributing author along with Ken Blanchard, Les Brown, Mark Victor Hansen, Byron Katie and many other leading Self Improvement experts.

To get more information, go to:

This book was created by David Riklan, the president and founder of the #1 Self Improvement website in the world, SelfGrowth.com. He tapped into the minds of the greatest experts of our time and pulled together something that will blow you away.

It's a complete collection of 101 insider secrets that can show you how to instantly and positively improve your life!

This book is the third volume in the “101 Great Ways to Improve Your Life” Series.

For those of you that have not seen Volumes 1 & 2, David is also offering a special discount if you purchase the three volume set together.

Volumes 1& 2 include more great secrets from Zig Ziglar, Brian Tracy, Jim Rohn, Jack Canfield, Dr. Richard Carlson and many other leading experts.

David has also bundled the book with life-enhancing tools! He calls them “bonus gifts,” and he has created a package of $1,500 worth of absolutely free gifts that you get by purchasing just one copy of our book.

These bonus gifts aren't the typical items you may have seen in other campaigns. That I can guarantee!

Every single one of these gifts has enormous value and has been cleverly created to give you value beyond anything comprehensible.

David is so confident you will love it that he is backing it up with a completely solid guarantee.

Go there and take a look for yourself - and make sure you check out the bonuses. I nearly fell off my chair when I saw what he put together. You may want to be sitting down yourself, because it could knock you over...with joy!
