                              Eight years ago my mate John Mason told me to get Eva back from Czech. He thought a few months together would make us realise it wold not work.

                              The advice was great, the thinking behind it ................

                                    I can relate...the one I learned...is:

                                    Sometimes you eat the bear. Sometimes, the bear eats you.

                                      Favorite piece of advice:


                                      The world is a fiery kiln of pragmatism where rules are publicly observed yet privately trashed if there is a chance of getting 'the edge'. In life, love and sport...if someone else has that 'edge', you'd better find a way of getting it too.

                                      For additional advice - sit down and watch 'Wall Street'.

                                            My sister once told me at a time I had a lotta shit in my life...she said 'get rid of the shit in your life whether it's people or situations and you'll be happier'...I never forgot that, I've followed that advice so many times and when I do my life gets better.

                                                  It's not traffic that's king. It's how you control it. It's what you do with it.

                                                    Dont believe what everyone says only 50% is true
                                                    if someone says they were doing 1000 sales a day it really meant 500
                                                    that was advice given to me 5 years ago I bet its alot worse now.

                                                    so dont belive the hype there is a reality and just focus on yourself and never give up

                                                      big affiliates might give you big cash payouts and more bonuses but small less-saturated ones bring in more sales and long term sign ups its good to have a mix of both.

                                                      Where possible try and get a website to plug your link rather than trying to force your way onto their topsite or referrer list.

                                                      I have to agree with that 'build what your users want' too..
