		<description>I saw how one guy (don&#039;t remember his name, unfortunately) does a great out-of-the-box article writing.

He ... uses a voice-to-words translating tool. He simply narrates the text and the thing writes it.

I was not testing it myself, but I know that many people have problems with WRITING the text. At the same time they can talk hours about their niche/passion/interesting topic.

Switch on the voice-to-words translator and create tons of content.

Really smart :)</description>

		<description>Your advice to &quot;get in the groove&quot; is so true. When I&#039;m writing I like to get lost in the work and really live and breathe it for a while without interruption.

Wow Lynn you currently have 394 posts in draft format? Now that&#039;s awesome. :-)

Keep smiling,

		<description>Deb, if you&#039;re gonna keep writing like this, we&#039;re gonna keep meeting like this.  

Stress and uncertainty in the online marketplace???   Where do you get all these crazy ideas Deb??  :-)

I&#039;m just a youngster at 56, and already I&#039;ve discovered that I have &quot;issues&quot; too.   No, really, it&#039;s true, I wouldn&#039;t lie to you!  

Everybody has issues. There is no kind of person one can be and not have issues of one flavor or another.

So, like you said, know yourself, and then accept yourself.  And then readers will accept us too.  

Not ALL readers of course.  But in a market as large as the Net, we surely don&#039;t need to connect with everybody.   And besides, there&#039;s nothing we can do to connect with everybody anyway.

To me, that&#039;s one writing &quot;secret&quot;.  If we can accept ourselves as we are, we can write as honestly as possible.   

And then we&#039;ll attract the kind of readers who enjoy who we really are, not readers who are drawn to some fake manufactured image we are struggling to create.

Another &quot;secret&quot; perhaps is to publicly own up to one&#039;s &quot;issues&quot;.   

I don&#039;t mean blurt out every personal secret.

Rather, when one&#039;s issues infect one&#039;s writings with less than glamorous side effects, try to be the first to shine a light on that.

It&#039;s simply amazing what folks will let you get away with, IF you own up to it.  

My name is Phil, I have issues, and I approved this message.</description>

		<description>Phil,

(We&#039;ve got to stop meeting like this. People will talk and Lynn may ask us to take our little rendezvous elsewhere. LOL)

Love your secret strategy! 

And what you said here: 

&quot;Sometimes I think if we were really serious, weâ€™d spend 90% of our time studying our minds, and 10% of our time studying net biz techniques, instead of the reverse.&quot;

I&#039;ve known this almost from the start of my serious IM study. It&#039;s ME that&#039;s the problem, ALWAYS. I&#039;m not talking about being down on myself (and believe me I can do THAT and whup anyone else at it, with one hand tied behind my back). 

I&#039;m talking about realizing that the problem is not with the products, not with the strategies or the techniques. It&#039;s never the &quot;what,&quot; it&#039;s the &quot;who.&quot; And the &quot;who&quot; is me (and you and all of us). 

When we get our minds in the proper frame, AND when we get our minds wrapped around the IM concepts and precepts, THEN we&#039;ll start to see things happening.

I think the best way to get that mindset is right here on Lynn&#039;s blog and at her forum, particularly in the Elite section where she gives soooo much one-on-one help. And let&#039;s not forget the weekly webinars!

So, bottom line, if anyone comes into internet marketing with self doubt or any other &quot;issue&quot; that can be a deterrent to success, those issues will not just disappear because we&#039;ve suddenly started trying to market online. In fact, the stress and uncertainty in the marketplace will exacerbate any mental, emotional or other issues (which we ALL have, trust me). 

It&#039;s no wonder so many people fail. They were doomed to begin with, because of other issues that need to be dealt with first.

Now, am I saying we all need to go into therapy before we begin marketing on the internet?

No.

But there&#039;s a caveat to that. Know yourself. Deep down we all know what (most of) our issues are. At least when you get to be 59 you do. LOL 

As I said, I knew back in 2005 that *I* was what was standing in my way of moving forward.

People like Mark Joyner, who created Simpleology, the simple science of getting what you want (simpleology.com -- sign up for free for Simpleology 101), know this. Mark is one of the most successful online business person on the planet. He created this technique of clearing the mind of all the stuff cluttering a person&#039;s thoughts that get in the way of accomplishing anything much each day. He created a whole system to deal with this one issue.

I&#039;m not saying his system will solve all our problems. It didn&#039;t help me. I didn&#039;t like the lock-step nature of going through all the steps every day. Too regimented for this creative, free spirit that I am.

But for methodical people, it could be a life-saver, as well as for anyone who loves structure and having a proscribed series of steps to take.

For the rest of us, well, that therapy is sounding better and better. *grin*

But to get back on topic before Lynn bans me from her blog, the way I&#039;ve found to create really great content is to write from my heart. I&#039;ve produced some of my best writing by pouring out my heart on a subject that struck a chord, touched my emotions, resonated with me, or otherwise stirred up strong feelings.

When we pour our hearts into what we write, we are at our most persuasive and most genuine. That&#039;s a powerful combination. We all need more of that.

		<description>Deb, thanks for the kind words.  

Yes, mindset!  You are so very right.  

Sometimes I think if we were really serious, we&#039;d spend 90% of our time studying our minds, and 10% of our time studying net biz techniques, instead of the reverse.

But, I don&#039;t want to get too far from the topic of Lynn&#039;s article.  

So here, published for the first time online, is my *Secret Writing System*, which will blow your socks off and all the usual hype like that.  :-)

What I do is...

Type as many words as possible everywhere I go, and then automagically, by the laws of random chance, sooner or later I type something sensible.  :-)

Seriously, sometimes I think we worry too much about our public image, and wind up with a dull public image as our reward.   A dull public image can be a death sentence in such a crowded environment, eh?

Shoot first, clean the egg off our face later, that&#039;s my vote.  

It&#039;s show biz folks, go out on a limb, put on a show, or kiss our audience goodbye.

This is the smallest text box I think I&#039;ve ever typed in.  Somebody tipped off Lynn that I was gonna stop by.  :-)</description>

<p>So here, published for the first time online, is my *Secret Writing System*, which will blow your socks off and all the usual hype like that.  <img src='http://www.clicknewz.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>What I do is&#8230;</p>
<p>Type as many words as possible everywhere I go, and then automagically, by the laws of random chance, sooner or later I type something sensible.  <img src='http://www.clicknewz.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Seriously, sometimes I think we worry too much about our public image, and wind up with a dull public image as our reward.   A dull public image can be a death sentence in such a crowded environment, eh?</p>
<p>Shoot first, clean the egg off our face later, that&#8217;s my vote.  </p>
<p>It&#8217;s show biz folks, go out on a limb, put on a show, or kiss our audience goodbye.</p>
<p>This is the smallest text box I think I&#8217;ve ever typed in.  Somebody tipped off Lynn that I was gonna stop by.  <img src='http://www.clicknewz.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

		<description>Phil,

What a great way of expressing this! (Wish I&#039;d said it first, LOL)

The reason that HOW you said it matters, is that our mindset, and therefore our perceptions, are what matter the most when we embark on any project or DON&#039;T embark, as the case may be. I hope your well-chosen words inspire many who need to hear this.

&quot;If writing doesn&#039;t come easily for you, become a publisher!&quot;

Well done.

		<description>Yes, great article Lynn, well done.  

I&#039;d guess most of us here were born with a natural inclination towards writing.  Words form sensible sequences in our mind somehow, we don&#039;t know how, it just happens.

But...

A lot of people&#039;s brains just aren&#039;t wired this way.  They&#039;re smart, they have other talents, they&#039;re just not natural writers, and no amount of effort will make it so.

These folks can still generate tons of great content, by giving themselves a promotion from writer, to publisher.

That is, they can become experts at creating and managing community type sites, where others do the writing.

Redefining oneself as a publisher could be an excellent opportunity for those who really want to be part of the net content world, but they find their own words just don&#039;t come easily.</description>

		<description>Lynn...great article.  I like the way you created a simple process for this.

I especially agree with the &quot;forget perfection&quot; concept.  We see so many marketers tweek and tweek and never get anything up on the website.

Also, you may want to check out our site, http://www.junta42.com.  It&#039;s all about how businesses can create valuable and relevant content.  We also provide a vendor matching service for those who need outside help and expertise.

Thanks again!
