I’ve adopted a new mantra for the coming year.
ACTION! “You don’t have to get it right, you just have to get it moving.” – The late Sir Gary Halbert
I have a lot in my bucket. If your not familiar with The Bucket List, it is a film, about two guys who find out they have, well, less days then they have lived left, I’m in that category myself, who decide to make a bucket list, all the things they want to do before they ‘kick the bucket.”
A lot of the things I have done have been great, I have only a few regrets, however lots of things I would still like to do. I was reminded by Dan Kennedy in his No BS Newsletter that it’s better to leave with a messy desk, then a clean one.
It’s also a fact that a lot of the things I could have, could still do, are just because I haven’t started them. A
million and one reasons come to mind, not enough money, not enough experience, what if I do it and it fails?
The only real way to get anything done, and my renegade nature makes it easy, is to just jump in, ready or not and do it!
Do you have a bucket list? I hope so, maybe your younger and just call it a wish list, but regardless, you should have a whole-bunch-o-things that you want to do and just for one reason or another put it till latter. Start now, even if your not totally ready, it may just surprize you how ready you really are.
Have a great day, back to my bucket list. – Rick

So I’m waiting in line at the gas station to get a bargain when I notice, believe it or not, the prices changed and went up while I’m sitting there, can you believe it? Then I noticed after coming out of the grocery store they had dropped below what they were when I originally pulled up an hour before. These are some crazy times we’re in. And, it looks like this recession is going to hang on for awhile.
Then, on the way home I had my own crazy idea. What if I ran a special limited sale of my own where the prices went up and down, just like at the gas station? I mean you may see one price, click and refresh the web page and a different price shows up, may be higher, may be lower, click again and yet
another pr.ice, sounds crazy, but kind’a fun too, doesn’t it?
Well, I got looking around and found some complicated software that would allow me to do just that, have a crazy roller coaster special.
So, I’m having my first ever crazy, you name what you want to give, roller coaster sale, just like the gas stations do, maybe they found the same software, who knows?
Anyway starting today and ending on Sunday at midnight you can take advantage of my roller coaster pricing and name your own price. Don’t like the number you see, just refresh the page, as many times as you like till you get the bargain you want, hit the button and it‘s yours.
So, What am I offering? Well, if you didn’t grab a copy of the Infamous Renegade Magician DVD when it was released last spring, now is the time to grab yours and you’ll get it for less then anyone else, I’ll even pick-up the shipping.
Just a word of warning, if your being affected by the recession, in any way, and most I hear are, this DVD could well be what you need to create your own personal economic stimulus package. Doesn’t sound like Uncle Sam is going to hand it to you.
You can find my special roller coaster sa.le at the bottom of the page, but don’t wait it’s all over and I’ll come to my senses Sunday at midnight est.
