Dear friend,

Index -

 


 

Well here we are again, the beginning of a whole new year, a new chance, a new opportunity to build the life of our dreams, the chance to create, to succeed. An opportunity for us to be all that we can be.

We have something special, a rare opportunity to start again to set clear goals to decide exactly what it is we want in life

However I know from experience that the next month can be the most trying. It has been shown that something in the region of 90% of people who set goals over the festive and New Year period start to fall down within the first month of the New Year. However if you can get over the first month and stick to your guns, it has also been shown that a huge amount of people who do that, will go on to succeed massively in the next 12 months.

So there it is, the next month is crucial.

So, time to decide ???

Are you going to be a dream builder or a dream breaker ? Where will you be in five years time? Let me tell you. Five years from now you will be exactly the same person you are today, Except for the people you hang around with, the books you read and the courses you take. So, now is the time to start. Surround yourself with the right people over the next month. Every day if you can, listen to something motivational. If you don't have motivational tapes or CDs don't worry just go to youtube.com you will find hundreds of opportunities to listen to some of the world's greatest motivational speakers.

Lay the ground work over the next four to six weeks, and I promise you, you will not look back for the next year.

Warmest
Gerard

However, many of you have contacted us and asked us to delay the price increase as we shut our office on the 21st of December and the offer did say if was available until the end of the year.

Today almost everyone who wants to do business has a presence on the Internet And I see coaches spending so much of their hard earned money getting people to build websites for them only to end up with something that does not really do the job

With 2008 now upon us, client growth is most likely near the top of your to-do list. So this is definitely a timely message.

Over the past few months I've become acquainted with Andy O’Bryan. Andy specializes in helping coaches grow their client base through better copy and creative marketing.

He's just compiled what I believe to be a truly ingenious system for building and maintaining a robust database of coaching clients.

I'll now pass the baton to Andy and let him tell you more about it.

Thanks Gerard and Happy New Year to all Noble Manhattan readers!

The system I've developed is really a paint-by-numbers way to get you to a level of security in your coaching practice.

And being on this level is a great feeling; just ask any coach who is already there. Here's the link for more information:

http://www.clientslikeclockwork.com

If you want more clients in a given week or month, you perform one simple activity and you'll actually have coaching prospects reaching out to you.

I've personally met and worked with some of the biggest names in the industry and grew my own business over 5,000% using these exact methods.

And the best part about this is that the system is based not on hype, but on truth, integrity and powerful ongoing relationships.

I'm going to share my secrets with you in this 5-CD set, and I'm going to ship it to you at no cost!

Click here to take a look:

To Your Success,

Andy O'Bryan

P.S. Make sure you read the comments from the coaches who have already gone through the system. They are at the bottom of the page.

We have recently been doing a lot of work with Chris Coney from WSI. And I have to say he has achieved some remarkable results for us. I am delighted to be able to recommend his service. Read what he has to say below here. Warmest, Gerard

Internet advertising is almost the opposite to traditional advertising. As time goes on traditional advertising gets less effective and Internet advertising gets more effective. UK companies now spend more money on Internet advertising than on any other form of advertising.

Why is everyone switching? Because Internet advertising works. Almost every company has spent money on advertising that went completely to waste. This was probably an advert in a magazine or in the newspaper that was paid upfront and didn't help the advertiser make any new sales.

The problem with traditional advertising is that the idea is to hit as many people as possible and hope some of them will want to buy what you have when you advertise it.

We solve this problem by using the Internet to display your adverts only to people who are specifically looking for your product or service. So the customer is in control. We already know they are interested so all we have to do is show them your advert which offers the product or service they're looking for.

On top of that, once we've shown them your advert, you don't pay anything until the customer decides they want to know more.

THE AWAKENING
-The Moment of Clarity-

A time comes in your life when you finally get it. . . when, in the midst of all your fears and insanity, you stop dead in your tracks and somewhere the voice inside your head cries out - ENOUGH!

Enough of fighting and crying or struggling to hold on. And, like a child quieting down after a blind tantrum, your sobs begin to subside, you shudder once or twice, you blink back your tears and begin to look at the world through new eyes.

This is your awakening . . .

You realize it's time to stop hoping and waiting for something to change...or for happiness, safety and security to come galloping over the next horizon. You come to terms with the fact that you are neither Prince Charming or Cinderella and that in the real world there aren't always fairy tale endings (or beginnings for that matter) and that any guarantee of "happily ever after" must begin with you...and in the process a sense of serenity is born of acceptance. You awaken to the fact that you are not perfect and that not everyone will always love appreciate or approve of who or what you are ... and that's OK. They are entitled to their own views and opinions. And you learn the importance of loving and championing yourself...and in the process a sense of new found confidence is born of self-approval.

You stop complaining and blaming other people for the things they did to you (or didn't do for you) and you learn that the only thing you can really count on is the unexpected.

You learn that people don't always say what they mean or mean what they say and that not everyone will always be there for you and that it's not always about you. So, you learn to stand on your own and to take care of yourself...and in the process a sense of safety and security is born of self-reliance.

You stop judging and pointing fingers and you begin to accept people as they are and to overlook their shortcomings and human frailties..and in the process a sense of peace and contentment is born of forgiveness.

You realize that much of the way you view yourself, and the world around you, is as a result of all the messages and opinions that have been ingrained into your psyche. And you begin to sift through all the junk you've picked up from the garbage dump of others about how you should behave, how you should look, how much you should weigh, what you should wear, what you should do for a living, how much money you should make, what you should drive, how and where you should live, who you should marry, the importance of having and raising children, and what you owe your parents, family, and friends.

You learn to open up to new worlds and different points of view. And you begin reassessing and redefining who you are and what you really stand for.

You learn the difference between wanting and needing and you begin to discard the doctrines and values you've outgrown ... and in the process you learn to go with your instincts.

You learn that it is truly in giving that we receive. And that there is power and glory in creating and contributing and you stop manoeuvring through life merely as a "consumer" looking for your next fix.

You learn that principles such as honesty and integrity are not the outdated ideals of a bygone era but the mortar that holds together the foundation upon which you must build a life.

You learn that you don't know everything, it's not your job to save the world and that you can't teach a pig to sing.

You learn to distinguish between guilt and responsibility and the importance of setting boundaries and learning to say NO.

You learn that the only cross to bear is the one you choose to carry and that martyrs get burned at the stake. Then you learn about LOVE. How to love, how much to give in love, when to stop giving and when to walk away. You learn to look at relationships as they really are and not as you would have them be. You stop trying to control people, situations and outcomes. And you learn that alone does not mean lonely.

You also stop working so hard at putting your feelings aside, smoothing things over and ignoring your needs. You learn that feelings of entitlement are perfectly OK..and that it is your right to want things and to ask for the things you want ... and that sometimes it is necessary to make demands.

You come to the realization that you deserve to be treated with love, kindness, sensitivity and respect and you won't settle for less. And you learn that your body really is your temple. And you begin to care for it and treat it with respect. You begin to eat a balanced diet, drink more water, and take more time to exercise.

You learn that being tired fuels doubt, fear, and uncertainty and so you take more time to rest. And, just as food fuels the body, laughter fuels our soul. So you take more time to laugh and to play.

You learn that, for the most part, you get in life what you believe you deserve...and that much of life truly is a self-fulfilling prophecy.

You learn that anything worth achieving is worth working for and that wishing for something to happen is different than working toward making it happen. More importantly, you learn that in order to achieve success you need direction, discipline and perseverance.

You also learn that no one can do it all alone....and that it's OK to risk asking for help.

You learn the only thing you must truly fear is the greatest robber baron of all: FEAR itself. You learn to step right into and through your fears because you know that whatever happens you can handle it and to give in to fear is to give away the right to live life on your own terms. And you learn to fight for your life and not to squander it living under a cloud of impending doom.

You learn that life isn't always fair, you don't always get what you think you deserve and that sometimes bad things happen to unsuspecting, good people. On these occasions you learn not to personalize things.

You learn that God isn't punishing you or failing to answer your prayers. It's just life happening.

And you learn to deal with evil in its most primal state - the EGO.

You learn that negative feelings such as anger, envy and resentment must be understood and redirected or they will suffocate the life out of you and poison the universe that surrounds you.

You learn to admit when you are wrong and to build bridges instead of walls.

You learn to be thankful and to take comfort in many of the simple things we take for granted, things that millions of people upon the earth can only dream about: a full refrigerator, clean running water, a soft warm bed, a long hot shower.

Slowly, you begin to take responsibility for yourself by yourself. You make yourself a promise to never betray yourself and to never, ever settle for less than your heart's desire. And you hang a wind chime outside your window so you can listen to the wind. And you make it a point to keep smiling, to keep trusting, and to stay open to every wonderful possibility.

Finally, with courage in your heart and God by your side you take a stand, you take a deep breath, and you begin to design the life you want to live as best you can.
