I'm sitting at the airport in Atlanta, Georgia, awaiting my return flight to Colorado. After living on the front range for nearly three months, I already find myself missing the beautiful mountains and am eager to get home.
I wanted to send this newsletter today because I have just spent the last few days at Big Seminar #9, where I had the privilege of speaking to four hundred attendees and teaching how anyone can make money online.
I'm not going to go on and on about how important it is to attend seminars. You already know how I feel about that.
Instead, I want to give props to one person who continues to inspire and amaze me.
At one point in my presentation about Google AdSense, I talked about the story of a 66-year old grandmother who was inspired to start a blog of her own.
There are a few things you should know about this woman.
She's not your average every-day grandmother.
This woman is a world traveler.
But not just a world traveler.
She is what the industry calls a "soft adventure traveler".
She doesn't bungee jump or sky dive, but she does things that I wouldn't consider doing...
... hiking through Siberia
... riding camels through the African desert
... spending days at the base of Mount Everest
She believes that world travel affords people the opportunity to see and experience things that they've never seen or experienced before.
And she blogs about her adventures to share her passion with the rest of the world.
Her name is Sheila, and her site has the best Travel Tips
It was over one year ago that Sheila read my book and got excited about blogging, and making money with AdSense.
Sheila was at Big Seminar this weekend, and I asked her to join me on stage to share her story.
She did wonderfully, eloquently telling the audience of her passion and inspiring them to not only travel, but to follow their own passion and "go for it".
Several times during my presentation, I told the audience that making money with AdSense is so easy that even my mother could do it.
After Sheila spoke with me on stage, I revealed the truth...
... Sheila IS my mother.
And I couldn't be prouder of her. :-)
Mom continues to travel, blog about her journeys, and see an increase in her AdSense earnings.
I hope that her story is an inspiration for you to follow your passion and create content that would be of use to others.
And I know that her wish is that her stories would inspire you to travel and see the world. See really has a knack for writing, and communicating how it doesn't need to cost an arm and a leg to travel.
I encourage you to visit her blog at:
It's time to board my plane, so this message will go out while I am en route to Denver. I'll be reviewing a new ebook while in flight. If it is as good as I hope, I will share it with you tomorrow.
