I wanted to apologize for being a bit "absent" the past few weeks. My wife and I celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary the week of St. Patrick's Day (the day we got married) by vacationing in Hawaii (Kaui) for a week. We got in between two MAJOR storms. The first dropped about 4 FEET of rain on nearby islands but not on Kaui. Then the second came in as we were leaving. We lucked out. KIND OF. I was sick at the beginning. Really sick. I probably had pneumonia. It was BAD. Just moving about the airport was harrowing. I sweated through my jeans and shirt and was dripping sweat as I finally found a place to sit and wait for our connecting flight. THEN my wife got sick. Nevertheless, we both had a very relaxing time in a spectacularly beautiful place. I'd go again in a minute, without any hesitation (well, except for the cost and I hate flying). Anyhoo, when we got back, we were hit with some family issues that I won't discuss here. Suffice it to say, our rested state from vacation quickly vanished into near panic once we got home. Things are settling, if only slower than one could hope. Life is UNPREDICTABLE! Long story short, I *think* I'm back. Regular posting will begin again next week. Thanks for your patience!

This may not "hit" all of you the same. It's basically for those of us in the "senior" or "over 55" crowd... Dennis Becker is a friend of mine. His story is pretty incredible. I wouldn't really believe it if I didn't know him myself... Here's Dennis story: At 50+…$300K in debt…3 years of trying online with basically nothing to show for it… By most people’s standards, he was done. Instead? He set a tiny goal: $5/day. Hit it. Then scaled it. And built a ridiculously simple system around it called: 👉 Never Too Late It’s built on this framework: - E – Establish Your Mindset - A – Acquire Your Audience - R – Release Your Product - N – Nurture & Scale No fluff. No guru nonsense. Just a step-by-step way to turn what you already know into income. Now here’s where most people get stuck (and why they never start): ❌ “I suck with tech” ❌ “I don’t know what to sell” ❌ “I overthink everything and never launch” So I fixed all of that. If you grab Never Too Late through my affiliate link, I stacked it with a full ‘get out of your own way’ bonus kit: 🔥 Launch Planner (kills perfectionism) 🔥 First 5 Emails Templates (no more blank page) 🔥 Tech-Timid Toolbox (simple tools only) 🔥 Niche Validation Checklist (know it’ll sell BEFORE you build) 🔥 7-Day Traffic Blueprint (get eyeballs fast) Basically… no excuses left. 💡 Here’s the truth: You’re not too late. You’re just stuck without a clear path. This gives you one. If you want it, comment READY and I’ll send you the link. Or, if you just don't want to reach out at all, you can see what it is here - Exclusive Bonus for Never Too Late

Leveling up one lever—writing, outreach, automation—can change everything. Most people aren’t "stuck." They’re just missing one lever. Not 37 new strategies. Not a new niche every Tuesday. Not another 14-tool tech stack that looks impressive and does nothing. One skill. Because in this game, a single upgrade can change your output by 10x: - Writing → turns your ideas into leads (and sales) - Outreach → turns your offers into conversations (and partnerships) - Automation → turns your effort into systems (and consistency) Here’s the part people hate hearing: Your business usually isn’t failing because you don’t know enough... It’s failing because you’re inconsistent at the one skill that moves revenue. And the wild thing? When you level up one lever, everything else gets easier. - Better writing = better posts, emails, scripts, DMs, landing pages - Better outreach = more deals without relying on "hope marketing" - Better automation = more follow-up, more reps, more sales… while you sleep So if you’re overwhelmed, do this instead: Pick ONE lever for the next 30 days. Go all-in. Track it. Improve it. Repeat it daily. Because breakthroughs don’t usually come from "more." They come from "sharper."

Every day, do something your future, more successful self would thank you for. That’s how identity shifts happen.

I was poking around the back end 👀 of Aweber this morning and realized I'm not using something that may be super valuable - to you & me. They have a "Newsletter hub" that is an archive of everything I've written in Aweber (assuming I saved it to the archive, which I think I have, by default). You may find it helpful. Or comical. Not sure. But check it out here and subscribe if you haven't already.
