Positive thinking on it’s own doesn’t really work.
Knowing and implementing The Secret based on thinking and repeating affirmations doesn’t work.
The glue that pulls it into action is getting emotional about your goals.
It’s true that what you believe will happen does.
Belief isn’t an intellectual exercise, it’s an emotional one.
When you have that emotional connection to your goals your entire body is on your side and working for you.
I don’t know if they know this or they just know it works but so many of the motivational speakers say you must feel what it will be like to reach your goals.
Wow.
That changes things doesn’t it?
Feel your way to success.

P.S. Some of the posts inside this group, https://go.wm-tips.com/asal, are master classes that will guide you to your personal goals.
But here’s what they don’t tell you – you’ll be working harder than ever during your waking hours to make that happen.
Think about it like this: automated sales are the RESULT, not the system itself.
The system needs feeding. Constantly.
New ads. Fresh creative. Traffic management. Testing. Tweaking. Optimizing.
I’ve watched businesses pull in serious revenue with automated funnels – we’re talking multiple six and seven figures. But behind every “set it and forget it” success story is someone who definitely did NOT forget it.
They’re obsessing over conversion rates. Running new ad tests. Responding to customer questions. Adjusting offers based on what’s working NOW, not what worked last month.
The funnel might run on autopilot, but the traffic? That’s where the real work lives.
So if you’re chasing passive income (and hey, it’s still worth chasing), just know this going in:
Build your system to work 24/7, absolutely. But plan to hustle like crazy while you’re awake to keep it fed and healthy.
That’s the real secret.

P.S. John still has his Skool group open to most people, not everyone.
Daniel was just going to refund his money and be done with it, but he spent time recreating the course in such a way that it will be totally useless to the pirate and any sub-pirates he wants to on-sell this to.
These secrets for copywriting are the same for all content.
This was ‘liberated’ from an email in my inbox.
Harry Dry’s 17 Secrets for Irresistible Copywriting.
Here they are:
A great sentence is a good sentence made shorter.
Writing great copy begins with having something to say in the first place.
Copy is like food. How it looks matters.
Kaplan’s Law of Words: Any word that isn’t working for you is working against you.
You know a paragraph is ready to ship when there’s nothing left to remove. It’s like a Jenga tower. The entire thing should collapse if you remove something.
Make a promise in the title so the reader knows exactly what they’re going to get if they click. Then, deliver on the promise.
The three laws of copywriting: (1) Make it concrete, (2) make it visual, and (3) make it falsifiable.
Make it concrete: Don’t be abstract. For example, say you’re writing about habits. Don’t talk about “productive routines.” That’s abstract. Write about “waking up at 6 am to write” instead. It’s concrete — and much more vibrant.
Make it visual: People see in pictures. This is why instead of memorizing card numbers directly, world memory champions memorize cards by turning them into pictures and then back to cards.
Make it falsifiable: When you write a sentence that’s true or false, you put your head on the chopping block, which makes people sit up in their seats.
When has a falsifiable statement resonated? Galileo was sentenced to a decade of house arrest for saying that the earth spins around the sun. That’s a falsifiable sentence. But nobody would’ve done anything if he’d said that the earth has a harmonious connection with a celestial object.
Write with the delete key. Using fewer words lets you be more impactful with the words you keep.
The job of a sales page is to make a bold claim at the top. Then spend the rest of the page backing up what you’ve said… with a ridiculous amount of proof.
If your competitor could’ve written the sentence, cut it.
Good copy is differentiated. Here’s an example: Elon Musk shouldn’t write “The Cybertruck is the world’s best truck.” Ford or Dodge can write that sentence. But only Elon can write: “The Cybertruck is tougher than an F-150 and faster than a Porsche.”
Some days, the writing comes easily. Some days, it takes sweat. The reader doesn’t care if you wrote for two minutes, two hours, or two days. The ink looks the same.
Great copy reads like your customer wrote it. Talk to them.
I couldn’t say it better, so I did the copy paste thing.
Once upon a time there was a town that had their water supply diverted away from the edge of town to 20 miles away by a Government decision.
The town hall meeting was chaotic until the Mayor announced that two people would be given the chance to supply the town’s water supply, and they would be chosen by drawing the names of those interested from the hat.
Ten people were interested in supplying water at a maximum fee per gallon that the townspeople had agreed was fair.
Tom immediately bought a water truck and began daily deliveries and regularly ran out of water.
Bill didn’t appear to be overly interested for several weeks as he wandered about muttering to himself and measuring things.
Tom bought a second truck and was able to keep up with the demand, but was working himself and his son ragged, and the water quality suffered.
Everybody had forgotten about Bill until he built a water supply station in the middle of the town and connected it to his new pipeline.
On the day the taps were first turned on it was clear that the water quality was better than Tom’s and, since the price was the same, it didn’t take long before Tom was out of business.
Short term money loves speed, long term money loves planning and solid infrastructure.
Sometimes you can get short term money as you build to long term money.
