Apocalyptic 2009
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
It’s one of “those times” you know…
I am quite glad it happened again.
I am also glad it happened in the first day of this new year…
A sign.
A beautiful sign that gives me the perfect OK for what I am going to do in some months from now… when time will add another year to my back.
It’s another message that will confuse my new subscribers… having some of them clicking on the unsubscribe link (the one near the bottom on this message) because they cannot understand that cryptic “John Who…” and some others feeling an “experience” they have never felt before… To you: Welcome to the Delaverian World…
At the same time, it’s a message that will make my “Delaverians” to take a coffee, tea or juice and Enjoy…. because “John is rambling again.”
From the shivers in my body I can predict the impact this message will have… and I feel thrilled…
Are you ready?
.

It started (again) with a movie…
Two magicians on the 18th century were trying to steal each one’s secrets, and also to prove who is the best.
After the movie (in the TV) I read a reply to my forum from a new TMer, from a country in Europe.
I had told him that his country has approx. 40 million people.
Earth has approx. 6,602 million people..
Instead of thinking that he cannot “compete” with the big guys, he’d be better start thinking how to use the Globe as his target group.
What my new TMer did not know was that I KNEW how he would react.
I KNEW he’d “thank” me (in the best scenario) and then again defend his “plans” thus try to see what he can do to his country first and then see if he can compete world-wide.
So… when I read that answer, I smiled…
It happened.
Again…
The scenario repeated itself. Again.
“JD” gives an advice.
The new wanna-be marketer feels that “JD” talks with the comfort the safe place of his position gives in the Internet Marketing Pantheon.
“JD” talks from his “secured” position, so chances are he does not understand the difficulties a NON speaking English new wannabe marketer has…
How could it be possible for a NON speaking English new wannabe marketer to DARE even think about “dominating” the Globe… and thus getting a place to Internet Marketing Pantheon.
Nah…
‘That “JD” has no idea how difficult that is…’
So the TMer (whom I THANKED very much for giving me the inspiration to write this message today) will do what he thinks it’s better: try dominating his market first.
My answer to him must be included as a part of this long message…
It follows…
“I have 1 weakness.
I am not a magician…
And I regret for this.
Magicians can make the crowd believe in something,
and then surprise them… and then have them
astonished by their *magic.* (the result)
With that said, “magic” is NOT my profession.
And that’s why I say “I am not a magician.”
I mean: a professional one…
For example if I was a pro magician I could DO
something and thus make you change the way you
think in 1 second…
BUT…
I am a self-taught observer of the Universe and
I use that wisdom for me. That’s something I cannot
“transmit” easily to people. I try though.
As you can see I do not use the word “magic”
because many people relate it to underground powers.
That’s what the mass believes.
And so I avoid giving that ID to myself, and instead
saying that I am a self-taught observer of the Universe…
For example I can predict what will happen to you when
you will do what you have in your mind… aka. trying to
see “how much you worth” in the Polish crowd, thus
measuring your “power” and then “attack” the Globe
with your accumulated knowledge…
The problem here is that even if I tell you what will
happen you will NOT believe me.
Because I am NOT a “certified prophet” – or magician.
If I was able to prove it to you by showing you the
results in my crystal globe, you may believe me…
But not now.
And thus I know you will DO what you have in mind.
And that you will NOT pay attention to what I say.
Because you feel you have the “power” to bring results
to your crowd.
However I shall tell you what will happen.
And it’s upon you what you will decide to do…
Guess what….
You will succeed.
You will prove that you can sell online to your people.
And guess what will happen next…
You will remember me.
Because when you reach that level, you will indeed
realize that the whole World is waiting for you. You
will realize that your people there are NOT enough
to afford your dreams.
There may be a scenario where that will be 100% realistic.
I mean: you will not get enough money from your people there
in order to afford your dreams.
Do you know why?
Because you will have been changed.
And your dreams will change with you.
When that time comes, you will do your “attack”
in the Globe market… with a confidence that you
“can do better.”
As said….
… you will remember me when that time comes.
Of course…
… you can just say that I have no idea what
I am talking about…
…and do what you want…
OR…
Save time.
John”
If you are a new comer to the Delaverian Logic, you have not unsubscribed by now and thus you’re reading these lines, allow me to predict what you are thinking:
“It’s easy to play the magician with newbies when you are talking from your Internet Marketing Throne JD…”
Am I correct??
Of course I am correct.
And yes, you have all the reasons to believe in what you just thought.
As said, I am not an accredited “magician,” I have not performed my “magic” to an open crowd, thus who am I to predict what you have in your mind…
Mmm…
Re-read this:
“…I have not performed my “magic” to an open crowd…”
“…I have not performed my “magic” to an open crowd…”
“…I have not performed my “magic” to an open crowd…”
Is this the case?
Do you think that is the case?
I’ll tell you with 1 question:
“What do you think I have been doing for more than 6 years now??”
I am not talking about magic.
Magic does not exist.
Magic is part of the entertainment shows.
While you believe “this cannot happen anyway” the magician just adds some doubts in your mind. True or false, you just accept that “he does his job… and that’s it.”
However I DO refer to the application of the Universe’s observations… and please do not think (you too) that I am speaking from the comfort of my Internet Marketing Throne…
Because the message inside this message is deep.
THINK.
Start with this:
If what I telling you is shoestring prophecies, then I am a balloon.
Nothing inside… just air.
Someone that created his “empire” online by talking and acting this way… by making money by selling thin air.
OK.
Now do me a favor.
Ask about me. Do your research.
Chances are that there will be *some* people that will VERIFY you this:
“Well… I have been with John since 2002… He has always been describing what he will do and he was always doing exactly what he promised.”
No balloon in simple words.
It becomes more difficult now eh?
If I do not sell thin air, and if I was DOING what I had been describing I was going to do, and since I did exactly what I promised… thus winning a place to what you see right now as “Internet Marketing Pantheon…” then…
…you may stop and listen to me.
Right?
Because there is 1 chance I am correct to what I am saying…
Because if I am correct then my TMer is wrong…
If I am correct then YOU that may have the same logic with my loving TMer… MAY need to RE-CONSIDER your logic and thinking too…
Right?
It’s a logical and fully justified conclusion that is based on FACTS of 6 years and more…
Can you close your eyes to the facts??
Would it be wise?
What do you think?
Should I continue now?
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Let’s go deeper….
If I am correct to the above, then I APPLIED a certain “magic” all these years.
Delete the word “magic” and put any of these words instead – because it will make more sense:
- Methodology
- Strategy
- Tactic
- System
- Logic
- Plan
You can add more similar words.
You know what…
I shall make it more difficult for you.
Would you believe me if I told you that I had no plan at all?
No strategy, no methodology, no system or tactic…
And since “success” came… and since what I am talking about is not thin air…
…how on Earth “did it happen?”
THAT’S what I was trying to explain to my loved TMer (loved, because he added a History to this first day of this new year – that something will happen…)
No matter what I can tell you here and right now, you will not believe me.
You will keep thinking the same way you’re thinking.
You will keep believing ONLY in your OWN powers.
“I can reach until that point… no reason to spend my time and energy to reach what John calls the ‘Big Land’. Let’s try on low levels first and then decide if that internet marketing thinkie is for me or not… Bills must be paid and perhaps I shall never have a start to the IM sky.”
Quite close?
I think yes.
OK… riddles must end now.
I shall try once again to tell you the truth and if you believe in what I am saying then I MAY change your life, your way of thinking…
I shall be glad to do so, because believe it or not this has been my purpose in this life.
Money is just the means.
I want to believe that I am here for helping at least 1 person to move on with his life and become a STAR – thus fulfill his/her own dreams.
Now… if that happens to more people then I shall be a happy man.
For the reason that FACTS speak, and FACTS say that SOME people WENT BY FAR FURTHER than the point they were thinking they could reach by just applying the “Delaverian logic” as a self-taught methodology through the observance resulted by all these years with me, pay attention.
My methodology that has been a strategy all these years that never failed has been one and only one.
The truth is what I have mentioned already:
“I am a good observer.”
Starting with Universe first, and please do not think it’s quite vague, because it is not.
When I applied that Universe’s observation “Law of Attraction” and “The Secret” did not have the impact they have in people’s life right now… no course existed, no marketers dealt with it, with the exception of David Vallieres from whom I learnt first about affirmations. I remember when I reached that point, I sent a message to my lists explaining to them how the “Together Project” has a destiny to be a success.
It was all about how the Universe works…
David emailed me for saying just this:
“That’s it John…”
Or something like that… more than 4 years passed anyway so I do not remember the exact phrase, but that was the meaning.
It’s all about how the Universe works.
And YES I know that it’s SOoooooo difficult for you to understand this statement…
It was for me, because you see…
… I did not believe that “magic” exists in life.
I too could not even dare to think that one day I shall be here where I am today.
And please do not consider this as a statement of feeding my vanity, because I must tell you that the best are yet to come… the journey keeps going and I do it longer in purpose, because as an observer I accumulate knowledge and transform it to tools that help me to define new destinations by far longer than those ones I had drafted a year or 2 or 5 years ago.
So yes, magic exists in Life.
Imagination is NOTHING when compared to what happens in Life.
Magic exists in Life and magic starts when you reach a certain point, a specific certain point and level.
You MAY think that it’s the time of your “harvest” and you may think it many times… only to see that the time has not yet came.
The key here is to move on.
Move on and be tougher.
Endure when you quit yesterday and move on.
Do more than you what you did yesterday.
Be tougher with yourself.
Move on… keep it going….
…and always OBSERVE the changes that happen around you.
Again…
I feel I am too vague here and yes I cannot explain exactly what you need to do.
It’s not just a matter of 1, 2, 3 steps you know…
It’s a way of living.
Observe everything that is happening around you.
I’ll try to give you a hint.
Try the “Dialectic” method established by Socrates 2,000+ years ago.
Read this en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dialectic for a reference.
Here is an excerpt for your convenience:
“Dialectic (also called dialectics or the dialectical method) is a method of argument which has been central to both Eastern and Western philosophy since ancient times. It is rooted in the ordinary practice of a dialogue between two persons, each of whom holds a different view and wishes to persuade the other of his view. The presupposition of a dialectical argument is that the participants share at least some meanings and principles of inference in common, even if they do not agree. Different forms of dialectical reason have emerged in the East and in the West, as well as during different epochs of history (…) Among the major forms of dialectic reason are Hindu, Buddhist, Socratic, medieval, Hegelian, and Marxist.”
Tough?
We need to start from something, right?
Pay attention to this phrase:
“…participants share at least some meanings and principles of inference in common, even if they do not agree”
I shall make a mental jump now and I hope you will follow me:
“If you replace participants with society what do you get?”
This:
“…societies share at least some meanings and principles of inference in common, even if they do not agree”
Another mental jump:
“If you replace societies with nations what do you get?”
“…nations share at least some meanings and principles of inference in common, even if they do not agree”
Can you feel the power in this phrase?
Pay attention to the last phrase:
“even if they do not agree”
Question for you now.
If “nations share at least some meanings and principles of inference in common” then…
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
… wouldn’t become MUCH EASIER for you to conquer NOT only the crowd of YOUR NATION but the crowd of ALL NATIONS if you KNEW what those “meanings and principles of inference in common” are?
Momentum?
If yes, I am glad.
Not yet?
Read on.
If nations share a common area of “thinking” through which they agree in principles “even if they do not agree” wouldn’t become easier to TALK to ALL nations if you KNEW that “language?”
Momentum?
Guess what…
Are you aware of Frank’s “Mass control?”
Well… Frank did a good job when “touching” that subject.
However, truth is DEEPER… Frank offered the “Introduction to Mass Control for Internet Marketers: A case-studies’ collection.”
Mmmm…
Who said that… “it’s better to learn how to fish instead of been given a fish to satisfy your hanger temporarily?”
He was right.
I am not going to tell you more for today because I think I baffled you enough. Too much food for thought; especially if you are a beginner to the aforementioned “Delaverian Logic.” Old susbscribers can now see the past through a specific angle and if this is your case, keep that momentum.
It’s just the first day of the new year 2009… and you just got an idea of what I am going to be telling you at least for 3-5 months from today. I and you need time in order to absorb some terminology here, so we need those months in order to understand each other better.
As you can now see, the “Universe” I was talking about becomes more “tangible.”
We start from the ground, the Earth.
Observe what is going on here so to be able to locate, isolate and record the “common patterns…”
THEN we can go deeper.
With “Universe’s” allowance (you can replace “Universe” with Whomever you believe in) 2009 is going to be the most important year in the Delaverian History.
But then again, that would be another “occurrence.”
The journey never ends.
Stay tuned.
And enjoy it!
John Delavera
p.s. If you are not a TMer yet, you’re missing episodes… you HAVE missed episodes. I am going to add ONE of my rock-documents “The Delaverian Code” inside Turbo Membership soon, and when this is done, the price will change. Reserve your spot today. There are banners that lead to the TM all over this blog.
p.p.s. If you believe I am asking for your money through the first ps. you are right. Money is the means, as said and societies recognize it as such. Consider it this way: your monthly fee FUNDS what is delivered to you through the TM, what is going to be delivered as promised and all the goodies added to the membership. More money means more goodies… more benefits for you. Just another fact. Will you follow?

So anyone who turns on a computer anywhere in the world is in my universe, even further, anyone who has access to a computer is in my universe. I can influence anyone within my universe.
I don’t want to fish nor be given a fish to eat. I want to sell the boats, tackle and bait for those who want to fish and give fish to the hungry.
It doesn’t matter what part of my universe you live in, you have the same desires and fears as I do. We just don’t all share the same drive and passion for success.
Everything that John just said is summed up in one redneck phrase we use here in the country. GET ER DONE

Hi John …
I truly agree.. that what you do today has changed my business life signficantly and am glad to be part of it. Every project that you are promising to happen is becoming reality. Thanks for listening to your customer and TMers
Happy New Year 2009 … Long Live and Prosper

Whoever you are, please read and reread again John message completely.
Get a chance to get into the episodes. You won’t regret it.
Give this 2009 a shot!
January 2nd, 2009 at 12:20 am
Happy New Year!!!
John, as always you give so much food for thought. Thanks!
Your thoughts are so deep and everything you say is true and backed by your experience, knowledge and support you give. I feel very lucky of being introduced to your Delaverian Logic, the logic that is shaping my online identity.
After reading this message, I know I should be prepared for something really BIG!
A great big Thank You!
To a great a successful online year for everybody!

Do I need to listen to this rambling again?
I wish I would have put this question.
But shame on me if I do it.
Your ramblings worth million dollars.
Why in the world a master like you keep lecturing newbies?
(sorry M:-) No hurt feeling!
But this is a truly your wisdom.
Never forget where the feet stand
Never ignore where the sky to reach!
But this IS a truly a newbie wisdom to LISTEN to THE guru.
That’s the point!
Thank you.
You’re back!
January 2nd, 2009 at 12:29 am
Hi John,
Well said John! AMEN! another great blog post.
Happy new Year to you and yours’
Thanks’

John I really marvel when you do this.
Get into the “Talking Stage”
Every line you write is a window into your wonderful mind. Although I will admit
that I at times need to re-read your words to make sure I get a full understanding
(at least I think I do) of the meaning.
I will attest to the fact that ” John Does What John Says He Will Do ” and he will
do it the way he says he will do it.
I know there have been many of your TMers that have followed your lead
(listening and acting) on your words that have achieved success with their
ventures. And I know of a few “Gurus” that have extended their reach into
the market by falling into line with the “Delaverian logic”.
I for one look forward to this year and many more to come with you showing
the way. Where you lead I will follow! My only concern is….
Can I keep up?

Thanks again John,
The saying: “If you give a man a fish, he will eat for a day… but if you teach a ‘man’ (meaning Man, Woman or child) – HOW TO fish (Empower them through knowledge), he will be Fed for lifetime (IF he takes action!)” … is a philosophy that has influenced my entire life’s thinking and actions.
And we know there are also other facets that you Share with the World, John.
Some are encompassed in:
*The Improvements*
“Give a man a fish; you have fed him for today. Teach a man to fish; and you will not have to listen to his incessant whining about how hungry he is.”—Author unknown
“Give a man a fish; you have fed him for today. Teach a man to use the Net and he won’t bother you for weeks.”—Author unknown
“Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. Unless he doesn’t like sushi—then you also have to teach him to cook.”—Auren Hoffman, Herald Philosopher
“Give a man a fish; you have fed him for today. Teach a man to fish, and he will sit in the boat and drink beer all day.”—OldFox (hahaha, that happens to some…)
“Give a man a fish; you have fed him for today. Teach a man to fish; and you have fed him for a lifetime. Teach a man to sell fish and he eats steak.”—Author unknown
“Give a man a fish; you have fed him for today. Teach a man to fish; and you can sell him fishing equipment.”—Author unknown
…sounds good, sounds like resell rights in action…
John, you have already inspired thousands of people to Take Action and to know that it is possible to make a living through Online marketing (imagine what will be by this time next year) and anyone can do it if they take the initiative and DO what is required (with the right know-how)
In Internet Marketing we believe that leveraging one’s time & energy is essential. The key to a recurring income. Take actions that will create an energy that moves you forward… and gathers momentum in time (Just like you’ve done, John!)
For Newbies & experienced marketers alike:: Offer a good service / product, but most importantly – provide value and be different but consistent, be creative but logical, be bold but be kind, be friendly and care….
It occurs to me that another Phrase can be added to the above like:
“Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.
Teach a man to TEACH OTHERS how to fish (source information, get customers), cook (put it all together just right) and eat properly (the right combinations) and you’ve empowered them to Earn a residual income for LIFE!” – Author Bruce Gibson (http://YourPLRmembership.com)
Thank you John for your support and guidance,
Happy New Year and Prosperous 2009 and beyond….

Hi John
All I can say is WOW.
After working so closely with you over the past year, I am still amazed at your thought processes!
I look forward to your ramblings as I know wht you say is pure wisdom. I always reread what you have said multiple times so I don’t overlook even one small nugget of Delaverian logic.
Thanks for aother great thought provoking post.

Hello John,
Wow…thanks for the words of wisdom. I understand exactly what you are saying. It has been a continued study since one of my mentors at the age of 22 gave me my first Think and grow rich teachings.
It is true I kept looking for something magical to pop right out of the book!!! It took me severals years and rereading, studying and applying what was needed to be learned and accepted.
I to, share your goal. All of my business has been offline, until 1 and a half years ago. I have been trying to find that secret again!!! Knowing that I just need to believe and go for it the same way I did when I started my business serveral years ago.
You are right about going global!!! Have been like he person in your above posting.
Do you have any advice for a seasoned IM newbie?
Yes it is time to go global. What is funny is that NRS is trying to go National.
Thanks,
Erick J

John,
Giving million-dollar advice huh? Excellent.
The words in this post are absolute gold…in a matter of speaking.
Now off to finding the common threads in my markets…

BOTTOM LINE:
John, “JD”, however you prefer to lovingly address him,
has figgured out the “secret”, or however you choose
to call it, the “Dream” – “How To Make Money Online”,
his “Reality”.
Can you agree?
How can we not?..
Bottom line… If you want to learn how to pull
money from the air, get involved with John at
the highest level you can afford. : )

Wow. I was gonna sign up for the Turbo Membership. I had decided that 2009 was to be the year to put all I had learnt through trial and error over the last few years and also take the advice of someone that has been there. But I realise how little I know about this Internet Marketing gig. Is this a cult? Do you guys dance around a campfire chanting incarnations? Is there some sort of secret handshake when you meet a fellow member? So I think perhaps I’ll give it a miss. Cause after reading the above blog I obviously have no idea, or any idea in how to understand what the heck you are on about.
January 2nd, 2009 at 4:19 am
Hi John,
Great words of wisdom! I love your delaverian logic.
I have had similar beliefs but they were all jumbled up in my mind. Thank you for making them coherent.
The million dollar part of the rambling was:
If “nations share at least some meanings and principles of inference in common” then…
… wouldn’t become MUCH EASIER for you to conquer NOT only the crowd of YOUR NATION but the crowd of ALL NATIONS if you KNEW what those “meanings and principles of inference in common” are?
Thanks again for lighting the idea bulb in our heads.

January 2nd, 2009 at 5:42 am
I saw that movie
It was quite the eye opener and…..
I was seeing it around me in various intangible ways.
Magic.
I should share with you what hapenned to me several months ago;;
I was in the shower and an object came towards me from absolutely nowhere.
About a meter off the floor.
It landed at my feet.
I instantly called my husband.. he answered from 2 rooms away.
He came in (not looking at my naked body of course),
and I asked him to pick it up and tell me what sort of coin it was.
Yes sorry it was a coin…..
It was a 1981 American quarter dollar.
I live in Australia!!
It landed with the side “In God We Trust” up.
That side was tarnished badly.
The Eagle side was shiny as….
It came from the direction of a solid wall, window closed and door at right angles to where it came from.
There is no logic or explanation so I keep the coin, and forget it I guess.
I think a time warp from a wishing well
or a ghost trying to tell me something?
The song:
“If I could read your mind love, what a tale my thought would tell.
Just like an old time movie, and a ghost from a wishing well.”
Some thought it my be from a worm hole in the universe,
anyhow, “belief in the invisible can open a can of worms”.
Happy New Year

John,
You are truly unique and the insights that you give us are priceless. I’ll be honest, I don’t always understand everything that you say on first reading. I have to let it perculate through my brain over weeks sometimes months before the pieces start to assemble and the picture comes into focus.
I’m looking forward to the ride in 2009.
Happy new year and best wishes.

John,
Thanks for a thought and action provoking post. The more I read your own words, the more I understand the reason why I became a TM’er in the first place.
Many people will never realize the wisdom of the ages that comes through your words. That becomes their loss. To recognize and utilize what you bring out is different for every person, but essential to their success.
If each of us applies what you says in the way that it speaks to us on a personal level, then we are very likely to all take different steps in our business from what we gleaned from your golden nugget.
Universal thinking brings about universal change which can make universal income and success not only conceivable, but attainable.
Thank you JD for allowing us to over-hear your thoughts. As always we look forward to each and every post that you make. Keep doing what you do!
~John Melanson

Always thought-provoking John….
Agree with thinking big and looking at the bigger picture….
Good time of year to think about strategies, goals, etc. and then *do something about them
Nice story re goals on my blog. Inspiring stuff. (Not my story I hasten to add, but well worth reading!)
Best wishes & Happy New Year to all JD’s readers (& JD himself too

Hi John
One thing I did learn a while ago is that if you do something well enough, and long enough and with the consistency you have, you begin to reach a level of clarity that allows you to see through the mist, smoke and mysteries.
You begin to trust in your own ability to make judgements and decisions, and not follow the crowd or herds. Some people are gifted with it early in their lives, others have it join them later.
Some people call that magic, others call it faith or belief, some would say it is just sheer determination of focus on a theme or goal.
One thing I can say is that this past year has been fun working with you, and learning from you. I am now in the application phase again, back to the right mindset, and you have played a big part in that process for me this past year, so a sincere thank you for that.
John I wish you well in 2009, and to your readers here also.

Hi John,
Excellent post to get us started in 2009.
From above – Mike – you should join – no secret handshake – no dancing around a fire – in a nutshell – the tools and knowledge to get your internet business going.
La m – think about what you said – have YOU made it?
Everyone, I am looking forward to getting to know you even better in 2009.
Happy new year all.

P.S. – A Universe can also be a state of mind – otherwise Google would have a search engine such as google.mars

Hi John…
Yet another insight into the brain of the Turbo Master….
I have learnt that if you do not Act on what your brain is telling you, then nothing will happen you can’t expect something out of nothing, you have to set your goal and aim for it….have a positive attitude to your goal and never loose site of what you wish to achieve and there is only one person who can achieve you goal and that is you and if you are not a tmer and have any doubts then join because your goals will be achieved a lot easier, faster with the help of the…
Delaverian genius JD. and his great Turbo Membership !!!!
JD. is without question the Best Mentor an Internet Marketer could Wish for!
Keep the Wisdom comin John

Hi John
& Happy New Year to everyone.
I am a brand spanking new TMer, only days old. Not new to the internet/marketing etc., no, I have beens chased around that block more than a few times!
. However, I have been blessed to always be led to the “perfect next step”. What I did not realize for some years, is that I was not ready. That is a very important part of our life experience here on planet earth, I think. It is almost like we live our lives in two parts. Part one is where we are drawn to the “wrong” things just for the experience maybe, bashing our heads against self constructed walls;
and no one and nothing can draw us out of that, until we are ready. We are just incapable of hearing what is said, because it is not our time to come to Part two.
Part two is when we are blessed with “ears to hear ” and “eyes to see”. When we WAKE UP– we are then amazed at how the very things we now embrace and thank the Universe for-(which propel us to the long sought success we crave) had no meaning for us before.
The saying “When the student is ready, the teacher appears,” is spot on! I am so thankful that now, I AM ready and that YOU did Appear! Fabulous Post! Full of wisdom, but not appearent to all, yet.
Thank You and I can’t wait!!!

All: thank you for your feedback indeed. As they say “more is never more” and since “applause” is “the gratification of the artist,” more feedback is always welcome. Let’s talk.
To La m
What an ego eh?
I see you have the word “dreamer” in your email. Are you?
Have you seen a dreamer without an ego?
Is there a human being without an ago?
Do you think that success favors those with no ego at all?
And how do you define the “bad” ego from the “good” ego?
Is that it or you’re just against alcohol?
Or do you have the tendency to characterize as “drunk” all those that talk in a weird way? And how one defines what is “weird” or not? Don’t we define something as “weird” either because WE think it’s either silly OR makes no sense to US?
But, is “weird” indeed something we cannot understand?
Or are you just against to anything that reminds you “Him?”
You know Who. What if I told you that walking on the water could be a metaphor? Would you change your mind for Him? Would that make Him less “magician” – because that’s what you say in an epagogic way. Don’t you?
Isn’t just so easy to write and talk without thinking at all?
We read a post, freak out because it’s “weird” (aka. inconceivable) and just add our flame… Super easy.
And that makes our Democracy great right?
Take my answer for example.
We have a debate here.
Isn’t that great?
Or are you just adding your words and fly?
Wouldn’t THAT be considered as a SUPER Egoistic behavior?
For the records:
What I do with myself is completely irrelevant. What I do when writing could be weird indeed, because others may not be able to write without citing what they are writing for example… or others may prefer to talk lied down on the floor and have a software converting the words to text… Or anything else.
Thus what I am doing and my mental situation while writing is a private issue, and of course you will never know the truth about it. I do not ask you to reveal anything personal anyway – and I am not going to.
Scientifically speaking though, and if you are interested to learn more about things you do not know (and thus if you DO care about what your written immortal records you leave in blogs will look like after 10 years – when you’ll possibly change according to human evolution’s laws) you can click on the URL below and read various statistical data related to a study titled “Alcohol, tobacco, and marijuana use: Relationships to undergraduate students’ creative achievement”
http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qa3752/is_/ai_n8821289
Mind you, more than 20 years passed from when I was an undergraduate student so chances are that I know what is wrong and what is correct in Life – as an adult.
Again for the records, Ernest Hemingway’s, F. Scott Fitzgerald’s, and Edgar Allan Poe used alcohol when writing. Some famous musicians I assume their names are known to you even used to take marijuana, heroin, and other drugs – as is widely reported by the press.
And all the above take us to the last question:
The answer to the question who of the 2 of us is correct and who is wrong, is quite easy if you take into consideration what turbo people posted here.
But I can accept that we all are drunken and you are the only 1 sober here.
What if the opposite happens though??
Would YOU accept the possibility of being drunken instead…
…without knowing about it at all?
Welcome to the Delaverian World.
Enjoy & Cheers!

I had 1/2 of the story, based from my own internet experience as a webmaster ,marketer from Haiti.
I managed, THANKS TO PEOPLE FROM INDIA, to have the No 1 site – http://www.archivex-ht.com on the subject HAITI based on Alexa.com ( http://www.alexa.com/browse?&CategoryID=26486 ) rated my site 57,280 by the end of 2008.
Internet users from INDIA which makes 70% of my traffic where as people from Haiti makes only over 11%
I had the feeling that the market is WORLD WIDE!
Now You Just Confirm it with your post.
What I missed in 2008 was the Know How and Capacity to go after that world wide market…
Strategy – Tactic – System, JD would say.
As a TM, I am looking to learn more in 2009 and get my share of The Global Money Streams
Thanks JD, for helping me confirm “The World Wide Market Feeling” as being Real

Thank you John, for again giving us a “piece of your mind” that you do so eloquently. What you are basically pointing out is that we have the capability of doing whatever we choose to do with planning and a self-discipline to the goals we have established for ourselves.
Napoleon Hill in “The Master Key to Riches” said, “Discipline over the mind is gained, little by little, by the formation of habits, which one may control. Habits begin in the mind; therefore, a daily repetition of this creed will make one habit-conscious in connection with the particular kind of habits which are needed to develop and control the six departments of the mind.
The mere act of repeating the names of these departments has an important effect. It makes one conscious that these departments exist; that they are important; that they can be controlled by the formation of thought-habits; that the nature of these habits determines one’s success or failure in the matter of self-discipline.” and in the inner-core of your message, you have said the same thing.
It reminds me of the key to success in 10 words with no word being more than 2 letters, which says,
“IF IT IS TO BE, IT IS UP TO ME.”
Yogi Berra once said, “WHEN YOU COME TO A FORK IN THE ROAD, TAKE IT.” I came to that fork in the road a couple years ago relating to IM, and the fork I took was the one labeled, JOHN DELAVERA.
Since that time, you have directed me toward making the right choices for me with my desires and goals of Internet Marketing but, I got a bonus. I also got a friend whom I trust.
That is the key, TRUST. A couple of replies indicate the contrary and the results that they are striving for in their IM quest will at best be miniscule as they lack the self-discipline needed.
I posted this creed for self-discipline in the TM forum but I would like to post it here.
For those of us who follow John Delavera’s “mind ramblings”, we know and are constantly learning “The Delaverian Logic” which has been successful and true. To others who do not follow, theirs will always be a world of confusion which will not guarantee the results of their own capabilities.
Here is a Creed for Self-Discipline which is a self contract that will allow us to focus.
A Creed for Self-Discipline
Willpower:
Recognizing that the power of will is the supreme court over all other departments of my mind, I will exercise it daily, when I need the urge to action for any purpose; and I will form habits designed to bring the power of my will into action at least once daily.
Emotions:
Realizing that my emotions are both positive and negative I will form daily habits, which will encourage the development of the positive emotions, and aid me in converting the negative emotions into some form of useful action.
Reason:
Recognizing that both my positive emotions and my negative emotions may be dangerous if they are not controlled and guided to desirable ends, I will submit all my desires, aims and purposes to my faculty of reason, and I will be guided by it in giving expression to these.
Imagination:
Recognizing the need for sound plans and ideas for the attainment of my desires, I will develop my imagination by calling upon it daily for help in the formation of my plans.
Conscience:
Recognizing that my emotions often err in their over-enthusiasm, and my faculty of reason often is without the warmth of feeling that is necessary to enable me to combine justice with mercy in my judgments, I will encourage my conscience to guide me as to what is right and what is wrong, but I will never set aside the verdicts it renders, no matter what may be the cost of carrying them out.
Memory:
Recognizing the value of an alert memory, I will encourage mine to become alert by taking care to impress it clearly with all thoughts I wish to recall, and by associating those thoughts with related subjects which I may call to mind frequently.
Subconscious Mind:
Recognizing the influence of my subconscious mind over my power of will, I shall take care to submit to it a clear and definite picture of my major purpose in life and all minor purposes leading to my major purpose, and I shall keep this picture constantly before my subconscious mind by repeating it daily.

John,
As always… you take us so deeply into your intricate thought processes… and mesmerize us in your attempts to elucidate the truth as you know it.
I always get a sense that you truly want everyone to ‘get it’ even though you know in your heart that only some will absolutely understand you.
Actually, I wouldn’t be completely surprised if you could walk on water…
Thank you for sharing and most of all for caring,
Happy 2009

John,
I know that some don’t like the way that you speak. But I must say that it is nice and fresh for me to read what you have to say.
So many people try to just give you information, but all we do with it is read over it and probably forget what was written 5 minutes later. But not with your words. I actually have to think. And thinking is good as it means that I have to consider what is said and then think about how it may or may not affect me, or how I may or may not be able to use that information.
Thank you for the deep thoughts and the way that your words invoke the brain instead of putting it to sleep.

Every words that JD said are totally awesome and meaningful.
The best way to deal with this situation is to start thinking as a Global Citizen.
I really like your style JD.
Will be your follower forever.

Hi John,
I do believe with you that magic exists in life – or, what seems like magic to those of us raised in the traditional ways. And yet, it is not really magic; it is the unimagineable nature of the Universe unfolding, and of course ourselves. So, let me reflect what you are saying from my perspective and why I like what you teach.
My experience for this note arises from my training in Ki Aikido, other practices I tried before that, and from my wandering around internet marketing studies the past year or so.
I know I am moving forward because I have finally made a commitment to Ki training that is changing my life , and I am close to finding he way I can make a similar commitment to the use of internet marketing in the style of what you are teaching, which will also change my life (and the lives of people around me).
The general practice underlying Ki Aikido is:
“Coordinate Mind and Body, and be one with the Universe”
Specific practices facilitate this: start with natural, good posture (this is well-defined), coordinate mind and body through “keep one point”, “extend ki”, etc.- these really are feelings or knowings of the subconscious mind eventually, make use of a specific testing method to confirm this state of mind-body coordination; and then make a practice of Ki meditation, and especially Ki breathing for at least one hour per day (which I have especially committed to) which deepens one’s concentration and ability.
The result of this practice, which anyone can learn without interfering with any other belief system they may hold, is similar to your explanation of the way things are:
“Believe and follow Universal Spirit; Listen well (and act accordingly), All things come true.” (Koichi Tohei Sensei)
What I think I can learn from you (and I am enjoying David Vallieres a lot) are a compatible mindset, practices and tools for Internet Marketing, so I can facilitate freedom and growth of myself and others in this way. I have learned something from my mistakes in the past year in my internet marketing activities –need for focus, plan, step-by-step, consistent ACTION, write something, offer something, generate some results, and learn by doing. Now I am eager to move on it.
Thank you for your teaching.
I think you would appreciate the Ki Society motto:
“Let us have a universal mind that loves and protects all creation and helps all things grow and develop. To unify mind and body and become one with the Universe is the ultimate purpose of our study.” (Koichi Tohei Sensei)
PS. I imagine you might be very intrigued by the way the following person thinks:
James M. McCanney, http://www.jmccanneyscience.com ; his website is almost impenetrable, but, otherwise his mind is very innovative.
I have started reading his solution of the direct propagation of Prime Numbers; his methodology is an especially interesting reminder for approaching any problem; his solution, if true, is an amazing achievement;
The simplest approach would be to order the book at the bottom of the page:

Hi John,
i personally find it remarkable that people think they are marching around the planet completely independent and self-propelled when it is a scientific fact that if the Sun were to suddenly go out and the light that takes about 8 minutes to get here suddenly stopped arriving we would all very quickly be history… and the Sun is but one of many, many, many factors/forces of the Universe unconditionally supporting each one of us every minute of every day.
thank you for your insights, which are illuminating, as always.
peace, heres to a fine 2009, david

My guess is JD, that some people are just very, very stubborn and that’s quite fine by me. You win some and you lose some, that’s the way the cookie crumbles. We are our agreements, that’s the plain and simple truth. The part I enjoyed the most of your post, is The Creed For Self Discipline. One thing I would like to add, is it always pays to take time out to smell the roses. Thanks again JD. Top of the year to you mate.

Lets see if I read these fragments as intended.
“The key here is to move on.
Move on and be tougher.
Endure when you quit yesterday and move on.
Do more than you what you did yesterday.
Be tougher with yourself.”
I read this as self-discipline or the right self-esteem.
“wouldn’t become MUCH EASIER for you to conquer NOT only the crowd of YOUR NATION but the crowd of ALL NATIONS if you KNEW what those “meanings and principles of inference in common” are?
Well, this might be the values that the human race strives for: security (both financial and physical), love, personal development, harmony (no I have not cracked any code yet!), please feel free to add a few more..

April 3rd, 2009 at 9:55 am
It’s all a bit too high flown for a simple mind like mine John but I respect what you are achieving and admire what you provide for your TMers.
I can see why I find Fantasos so hard to use though, as it must be based on your logic – which takes quantum leaps ahead of mine and runs rings around me with 7 league boots!!! I always get lost and end up in Cul de Sacs!
I’ll understand it all one of these days, so I’ll keep on working at it………..
Thanks for your inspiration!

Dear John
Your thoughts like mine are far beneath the Creator’s thoughts and ways. And because Jesus Christ has been given all authority and power He holds the key to “success”. Who in all of history can come near to Jesus in speaking and living the truth. And who dares to judge men for how they live and relate to Himself and the world He owns? Who in the world can give eternal life and save people from their sin and selfishness? And what is it worth to pursue being ’successful’ if your life ends up being nothing, indeed being destroyed because of ignoring Jesus. Our accountability is to a specific God who has revealed Himself in Jesus Christ, none other. We delude ourselves if we think we can direct our lives just by tapping into God’s scientific universal laws. We may benefit by observing these in some ways but if we neglect or ignore His essential fundamental crucial laws of sustainable forever joyful ’success’ then it is to our peril. I have a doctor of science and appreciate ‘objectivity’ but of what use is this if we do not listen to the facts of revelation in Jesus? The wisdom of God and what He has revealed in Jesus is far superior to anything you or I can think of. How foolish for us to assume we can independently do it ourselves. Don’t lead people astray John. You will have to give an account of your life before God Himself and His word and standards will judge you not your own thoughts, opinions and beliefs. Turn to Jesus John. And let the world know!
Your friend
Ronald
