Dan Kennedy: How To Live The Internet Lifestyle - A Shortcut

By Neeraj Varma

In Dan Kennedy's course Brian McElroy reveals his secret of how to have money, time and health to enjoy the Internet lifestyle on the beach in Rio de Janeiro. Would you like to make $500,000 in 18 months like Brian?

Is Brian McElroy a genius? He doesn't say so. "You have to hook up with people who are already highly successful and start working with them", said Brian.

Rob Toth interviewed Brian in conjunction with the Info Riches course as Dan Kennedy's partner. Rob interviewed several highly successful information marketers as part of a course called "Future Of Information Marketing". Each interview provided some great insights into what it takes be successful. I have summarized some of the articles but you can get the whole course for yourself for FREE for a limited time.

In his interview with Brian, Rob found out the key secret to making it big in a short period of time. Brian said that he, like many others had been purchasing courses upon courses but never really doing anything with them. Wannabe Internet marketers are notorious for buying expensive courses then not even reading them or watching the videos.

"You have to start working with highly successful people so you can learn their business model" said Brian. With all the information out there people have so many choices of how to start a business. Choice can be a good thing to help find what works for your temperament and lifestyle, but more often than not it becomes a distraction. You have to work with someone to avoid information overload.

If you start working with someone and "provide a highly valued service to them you will build up your contacts". "Align with them...partner with them, get on their mentoring programs..." said Brian.

Brian said that one of his biggest challenges was time management. He could never really find any time to put into building his business because he was working in a job. Recognizing that as his biggest problem, Brian decided to concentrate on getting organized. After taking many courses and really applying them he came to the conclusion that "people have too much going on in their life. They don't have time to take on a new project." He then started to eliminate things from his life to free up his time. "You have to focus on one project at a time and make it successful before you move on to the next", said Brian.

Brian says that once you have yourself organized you can "then focus on providing value to your mentors". This was Brian's secret: First get organized personally, then find any excuse you can to work with or for highly successful information marketers.

18 months later, after following a "rigorous schedule", Brian is very happy "living on the beach in Rio de Janeiro...living the Internet lifestyle.
