"Hi Mark,
A lot of people have been blessed in having the opportunity to come across with this information including me. Being an automotive service consultant here in North America is so challenging & honestly I've been looking up to my fellow consultants who by nature are I would say Yangs. Our upsell results never goes far in volume comparatively even though they do a lot of talking more than I do.
Thank you so much. This piece of information has again reassured my confidence in my personal conviction that truly you can earn a customer's trust by going through the Yin's way. I am sure a lot of people are interested including me to attend your seminar but I am proximity challenged right now being here in North America. It would be awesome if you can come up with Webinars on similar topics in the future. Webinar is the trend here in North America & it's really effective & flexible. I strongly recommend you give it a shot sometime.
Again, congratulations to all my fellow Yins & I'm equally hats off to all them Yangs including you Mark! ;- )"

"Hi Mark,
I love this article. Indeed, very true.
Most people live lives that are suggested (or more likely dictated) to them by other people and end up as victims. I believe that we can choose our own destiny and you nailed it with the power of suggestion.
Thanks again!"

"This is a good article. I used to have 2 columns only when doing budgeting: money in, and money out (ie, expenses). I had always thought expense is just money going out. Now I know, there is such a thing as good expense. This article also interesting in that budgeting is likened to dieting- I don't have to deprive myself of things I want, but I just have to find a more sensible expense to substitue for the bad expense. I am applying this now in my monthly budgeting. More power!"

"Hi Mark,
Nice article. I like your concept. Making a business in a bite-size and more manegeable scale. How I wish I can arrange one day to go for your seminar. By the way I'm an OFW and currently working here in UAE. Being separated from my pecious family is quite an ordeal as I work here in abroad. I really need to do something to have a reasonable and concrete source of cashflow in the Philippines to end my abroad job.
As I started receiving email from your group, a spark of idea of doing a business in food catering or a small restaurant have been ringing in my mind since then. As I was saying, I'm thingking of ending my career as an OFW. I want do this food business and be with my family. As an OFW, my wife & I managed to save some significant amount of money and we're really want to do the venture the moment my contract here in UAE expires (that's almost 2 years from now).
I know that I need to invest first in acquiring relevant informations how to make this "small business" sustainable and make it progressive as the operations goes on. I do hope that your group can enlighten me further about this endeavor. I'll be having my next annual vacation soon. I really want to have a seat in your 7-Point Formula Course/Seminar."
