Lots of marketers (more than I ever expected!) seem to be fascinated with me, my daily routine, and how I live my life.

I am not.

That’s not fake humility either. It seems to me I’m an ordinary entrepreneur. I live an interesting (but not insanely interesting) life. I just happen to have the uncanny knack to synthesize oodles of information, spot the upcoming trends and pinpoint all of it with laser focus to grow businesses fast.

Still, it seems many online marketers have a tendency to “glorify” me. A few others seem to consider me the evil mastermind behind everything that’s bad in internet marketing.

Truth be told, I am not that amazing, nor that wicked.

But, people are curious about me and so I thought I would invite you to come along with me to an incredible web 2.0 event happening in Texas right now… SXSW.

Just got off the stage a while ago (WOW what a great crowd), and I wanted to get this to you quick…

Here’s 2 important elements of mavenship (along with the one thing you must do to succeed in your market) direct from my presentation today.

Great stuff…take a look.

Gotta make this quick, because Strategic Profits Live! is getting set to kick off. But I wanted to let you in on a special surprise I’ve been keeping under my hat for a while…

We’ve decided that, if you couldn’t make it to Strategic Profits Live!, you’ll have a daily ringside seat.

You read that right–for the next several days, the Strategic Profits Blog will be transformed into Conference Central, complete with daily updates on the latest happenings, smokin’ hot video clips from the speakers and behind-the-scenes interviews you won’t want to miss.

We’re talkin’ no-holds barred (and completely pitch free) nuggets of wisdom from the world’s greatest marketing and business building minds, including Frank Kern, Jeff Walker, Mike Filsaime, John Carlton, Jay Abraham, Janet Switzer and many more.

There’s never been anything of this magnitude ever attempted in the internet marketing world, and I’m giving the cameras an All-Access pass into every nook and cranny.

Here’s a few clips from today’s opening day activities – some workshop attendees and the crew getting up for the main event that I kick off tomorrow … looking good …

Have you made up your mind yet?

Do you know who you’ll be voting for in the upcoming presidential election?

Well, whether you’ve already made up your mind, or you haven’t… I want you to choose who you would vote for and who you wouldn’t (if the election were today and you had to choose).

But wait, because before you cast your imaginary vote – I want you to remove politics from your decision. Instead of thinking about the candidates’ positions on issues that are important to you – think about the candidates as people, just normal human-beings like you and I.

You see, Presidential elections can be an extremely valuable gift for entrepreneurs in the Attention Age.

I feel awkward writing this blog post.

It’s not the topic, the timing, or any personal event causing me to feel uncomfortable. Nope, it’s nothing like that.

You see, it’s been 8 days since my last post. And while that may not seem like a long time… as I sit here writing to you, my absence feels like a 50-foot wall I must scale.

It’s weird.

On the one hand, I’m desperate to get writing again. But, because of my absence I feel my first post has to be better than normal.

Of course, the more I focus on how great this post needs to be, the less likely it will ever get written. If left unchecked, it could even prevent me from writing altogether.
