Ever seen a video on YouTube with great meaning and significance? One with great lessons in life? This article is about such a video.
It's about an Award Winning short film with profound yet fundamental lessons for us marketers online.
It's one that really got my attention.
It's full of meaning and won an award at the Cannes Film Festival in 2008.
It's called "historia de un LETRERO" in Spanish or "the Story of a Sign" in English.
To watch it now, just Google, "historia de un Letrero".
Make sure you watch it before you read on.
Today I'd like to cover the first of 4 very important lessons for Online Marketers, from "historia de un LETRERO".
And that is: We Need Someone Successful to Show Us the Way.
The world is de-sensitised to our needs as it walks on by.
Right now you might just be another face in the crowd.
Just another voice calling out.
You might be just another email that people walk by (or read past and delete), as they go on their way, focussed on their needs.
Just another "sign", that most people ignore! Like many online, who try to do the same thing day in and day out, the blind man was going nowhere.
In such a world, in order to succeed, we must have someone to show us the way.
To succeed with Attraction Marketing, as with any online venture, we must have a mentor.
The blind man was hardly earning a dime.
And if he did, it was almost by accident, as someone dropped a coin and went past.
It took someone successful to stop and show the blind man another way.
No one EVER achieves success on their own.
As John Dunn the poet said, several hundred years ago, "No man is an island".
What's interesting is that the help the successful man gave was MUCH more valuable than a 1-off donation.
It wasn't financial but it led to great financial success.
He took his know-how and shared value, for free and brought great blessings to the blind man's life.
He stopped and helped the guy where he was in life and showed him how to use what he already had to get great results.
He showed him how to fish, for life, in GREAT ABUNDANCE! What he gave was much more powerful than figuratively dropping a few fish, into the blind mans collection can.
We all need mentors, leaders, successful entrepreneurs to show us the way.
Successful people got there, by modelling themselves after successful people.
Successful people still have mentors, whats more, they all have Millionaire or Billionaire "Inner Circles" or "Mastermind" groups.
Napolean Hill, in most of his works, talks about the power of the mastermind principle where, whenever 2 or more are gathered, there is the presence of a third mind.
A third mind he called, "Infinite Intelligence".
One plus one, is always greater than two! Successful people surround themselves with others of greater talent and value than themselves.
None of us will EVER outgrow this need.
What's exciting about this is that none of need to re-invent the path to success on our own.
Trail blazers have led the way! Robert Kiyasaki, author of "Rich Dad, Poor Dad", had his Rich Dad to advise him in his youth.
He had a mentor.
The young Napolean Hill, was sent out by Andrew Carnegie to interview and discover the "secrets" to greatness from the likes of Henry Ford and Thomas Edison.
He then went on to advise 2 US Presidents later in life.
He had many mentors.
Just as the blind man needed the successful man to show him how to "attract" and magnetically draw abundance into his life, so too do all of us.
A mentor can help you now, right where you are sitting, to set out on the path to true success in life.
Pick a mentor, or several.
Study, learn, apply and grow.
Read their works, listen to their audios, watch their videos and watch the change in your life.
You'll increase your value to others and embark on a new journey to success.
To Your Success!
