What I think you should do during 2012

Rejoice fellow warriors!

Even though the Mayan calendar says so.. 2012 may not be the end...
maybe they miscalculated by a year? Surely, they must have meant 2013:

Milky Way’s black hole set to eat giant gas cloud


Happiness! High times! Considering where it is happening (we are about 25,000 light-years away from the galactic center) we will still have a bit of time to fool around, or grow our businesses

Ok, so now that you got another year.. what should you do with it?


Of all the things in life which are keeping you from doing that which you want to be doing ( or at least progressing towards that which you want to be doing)... the nr.1 reason it ain't happening... is because you are thinking about it too much.

Let's suppose there are 2 types of thought..

One is built around facts, actual events and physical surroundings. Most of it happens subconsciously or is based on experience. How to open a door, setting your alarm clock because tomorrow is Monday, etc. Even figuring out where the tree will fall if you cut it down in a strong wind is part of this because, if you haven't done it and don't think it through, experience will teach you a lesson. Next time you will think it through and have some experience to go by. Even guessing falls into this category because guessing is based on similar experiences, having observed other's experiences, or related learning. No, “wild guessing” does not count because that, my friend, is gambling

The other type of though is emotional, and often delusional. Some of it happens subconsciously but most of it is part of a feedback loop which you started. Somewhere, somehow you started it by slipping through the backdoor instead of confronting whatever it was that you had to go through. Your mind registered that a certain response to a situation or thought made you feel good, or better, or it provided a simpler answer. Unfortunately, in this category you do not want to think things through because since it is based on emotions - it just builds up and your mind easily builds smokescreens around your primary goal, soon forgotten. Drugs work this way. When your subconscious notices that the smokescreens are working (in maintaining the status-quo and preventing you from getting anywhere) that is where the trouble begins. I ought to go outside & take a walk.. but what if it starts raining? Where's the umbrella anyway? Wait, have another cookie. Ah, too late now, I´ll do it tomorrow.

Something to remember:

Thinking about doing it tomorrow can feel good because

1. you don´t have to do it now
2. now you have a plan for tomorrow

Looking forward to being productive and “doing good” can feel just as rewarding as actually seeing the fruits of the labor. Keep looking forward and the feedback loop will trick you into feeling good without ever doing anything. Pure addiction. And if the dope starts to loose effect, your emotional delusion will easily boost the credibility of the effects to any level you want.

THINK LESS AND DO MORE

Not just in our little IM world. Apply it to everything, and hopefully get more out of life.

Thinking about a new job? Stop thinking, actively look for it, apply for it.

Thinking about a sweetheart? Stop thinking, get hooked up, or get dumped. Do it.

Thinking about building some sites? Stop looking for backdoors and just do it. Gain the experience. Move on.

Wondering why your coughing never ends? Put the pack of smokes down and go see a doctor.

Anyway, where were we?

Ways to make money as a Internet Marketer in 2012? Basically the same as 2011. Just get on with it.

Personally, I think this was the FB year and that FB will loose a lot of it's attraction 2012. Not sure what category of thinking I am applying here though, so make your own decisions

2012. The end of the world.
Why do stuff this year when it all ends anyway... ?

Great! Let everyone else build their emotional fortress while you do stuff.

Less thinking. More action. Experience guaranteed.
