One, two, three.  Ready?  Now breathe deeply.

Dear Friend,

Just a fast heads up: If you are sensitive or have strong feelings, or if you're a VERY conservative person, then you will definitely be offended at today's message.

I am so excited I am actually about to explode!  I literally have so many different things going on right now, I don't know which one of them to share with you first.  So... let me take a few deep breaths here, and just settle down.

Here, do them with me. 

Ready?  O.K. One: inhale... exhlale... Two: inhale... exhale...

Three: inhale... exhale.

Good, that's much better -- I think I've settled down a bit now.  How about you?

Okey dokey, let's roll it.

For starters, the response to my "Automatic Pimpin'" contest and viral campaign that was announced in this month's Seductive Selling Newsletter - http://www.kingofcopy.com/ssnl - is going WILD.  I have received SO many good ideas (that I will be publishing in a future issue before the year is up), I'll be busy implementing them for a good long while.

I also am working on a Seductive Selling book that should be out in 60 days or so, to complement the newsletter and the Seductive Selling System - http://www.kingofcopy.com/seductive

And lastly, if you are a Seductive Selling Newsletter Subscriber, then you just received notice about the year-end 2006 Seductive Selling Workshop I'll be having down here in sunny Tampa the 7th and 8th of December.  I just wanted you to know that anyone who attends this workshop will also be getting a free 8-CD Audio Library Set of a private meeting I held down here in March, that I have NOT released to anyone else yet.  The cost to attend this meeting was $997, so consider yourself VERY lucky.  Again, the details about this meeting are inside this summer's newsletter. 

The current August 2006 issue of Baby Talk magazine has a beautiful picture on the cover.  It's a close-up of a very young infant breast-feeding.  There is NO nudity in the photo, and nothing "private" is exposed (you know what I mean). 

If you've even been walking through the rooms in a maternity ward, it's something you see all day long, and if you're a parent and you fed your children like this, it's a very compelling and charming photo -- one that will bring you a flood of warm memories.

But sure enough, under the "there are always some stupid idiots around to ruin the party" banner, a number of readers of the magazine are totally up-in-arms over the cover.  Some of them are calling it "offensive and disgusting."  What's amazing is that they are READERS of the magazine.  It's a PARENTING magazine, not a wrestling magazine.  This is like a professional football player calling the sport "violent and aggressive" in disgust.

Personally, I find people who actually have the time to complain about this, highly annoying, and I try and coat myself with invisible "moron repellant", all over my body, that pushes them away, as if they were pesky mosquitoes here in Florida, and I was a can of "Off".

What you must realize, is that because you are someone who is climbing the (endless) ladder of success, there will always be someone around to criticize who you are and what you're doing.  That's just the way it is. 

Don't feel bad when this happens to you.  In fact, hope that it happens soon, for a couple of reasons.  First of all, it's a sure sign you're moving forward and making progress.

Second, if you can identify the fools who don't like you, you can eliminate them from your life -- or at least from your list.  Why should you have them sucking energy out of you like some kind of a "fun vampire" or something.  It's simply not worth your time to deal with them.

Remember, the race to the top of the mountain is wide open in the beginning, and then as you get closer to the peak, the going gets a little more narrow.  And even though there really is enough space for ALL of us to fit in, only those willing to sacrifice and take a little pain and discomfort along the way, can complete the journey.

So what you need to ask yourself, is... what's your threshold for pain?

Now go sell something,
