As the U.S. focuses it’s attention on Independence and?4th of July celebrations today, I am reflecting on the universal concepts of seizing opportunity and celebrating freedom that Internet Marketing provides - ideals that know no borders and can be shared worldwide.

Are you taking advantage of the opportunity that surrounds you?

Let me give you an example that?begins with the photo shown here of me and Carl Galletti at?his recent Internet Marketing Super Conference. Originally, we were attending as invited VIPs to the 4 day event here in Las Vegas that included speakers?the likes of Willie Crawford,?Michel & Sylvia Fortin, Doug Champigny, Stu McLaren,?Greg Cesar and more. A line up of top notch marketers who provided an opportunity to network indeed!

But for Greg and I, on day 3 of the event it turned into even more of an opportunity…

At the end of the third day, Carl announced that the final speaker of the event was unable to make it and reviewed the schedule change with the attendees before ending the day on Saturday. No sooner than the words were out of Carl mouth and he jumped off the stage, I was up and on my feet. Without a second thought, I approached Carl and offered to fill the vacant speaking slot. And before you knew it, I had seized an opportunity to grace the stage of this prestigeous event in it’s 10th year?and could proudly claim a spot at the podium.

Sure, I could have sat back, let the opportunity pass, and crawled into bed early that night?after a long day, instead of burning the midnight oil and staying up long past midnight to get my Powerpoint presentation in order for the following day…

But when opportunity presents itself, I believe in doing whatever it takes to capitalize and as a result I had the honor of closing the 4 day event with a motivational recap of what the attendees had just experienced after four intense days and turning their thoughts to how they could best capitalize on what they’d be taking home with them and the paths their future would take.?I also got an opportunity to preview one of my new presentations in the process and gain valuable exposure live on stage. Opportunity indeed!

Likewise, there is opportunity all around you and forging ahead to seize it will serve to accelerate the freedom you are seeking as you pursue your Internet Marketing endeavors.

Freedom to set your own schedule, pursue your passions and carve out the life of your dreams!

We are but a few hours away from having another marketer join us here in Vegas for 2 days of holiday and birthday (Greg’s birthday is tomorrow - whoohoo!) celebrations. The marketer is Paul Klein, and he’s packed up his lovely wife and 2 boys in the car to make a drive from Utah to be with us. Seizing the opportunity to meet with us in person for two days to explore his online endeavors, discover how to take?his online business?to the next level, and create an exit strategy from his J.O.B.

Sure, it would have been far easier for the Kleins to sit at home,?light a few sparklers today,?and let the opportunity?pass them by. But these eager entrepreneurs are crossing?hill and mountain (literally)?in the heat of the day to pursue their dreams and we will stand waiting on this end to support them along the way. Yes, their freedom is that important to them and they are willing to go to whatever extent necessary to make their family dreams come true.

So now what about you? What are you doing today to make your own dreams come true? How have you seized opportunity?or taken advantage of your freedom on this great day of celebrating our independence? Leave a comment below?with an?example and perhaps you too will inspire someone else to greatness along the way!

Following are some additional pictures?of the Internet Marketing Super Conference… enjoy!

Above pictured are Michel & Sylvie Fortin (top) and Doug Champigny (we finally met after all this time!) with me and Greg on the bottom. What a delight it was to meet the Fortins and spend time with Doug and his wife Teri. There is no substitute for the bonds that are formed when you finally meet in person at live events!

What a wonderful time we had getting to know the Crawfords outside of a formal event setting and spending time relaxing at a quite Italian restaurant off the strip. Freedom indeed!

Don’t forget to leave a message below… and Have a Happy 4th of July if you are in the US, and for all our friends and family worldwide - take a moment to reflect on what opportunity you have before you and how you can catapult that to your own personal freedom!
