A few months ago I committed to writing daily emails.
That’s in addition to the 4,000 to 7,500 words I was ALREADY writing every day for…
– Sales copy for clients…
– Books I’m working on…
– And other ancillary projects that are birthed from my Marketing Camelot.
So here I am… Wednesday night at [10:56] PM… sitting on the couch with the Colombiana.
Her watching “Celia” on Telemundo.
And me…
Sitting here on the couch with my laptop, writing this email for you to send Thursday morning.
When what I SHOULD be doing is winding down, enjoying my family and allowing myself to relax.
(I’ve been working since [6:30] AM. Maybe that’s why my doctor is predicting my “widow maker” heart attack this year.)
But I made a commitment, goddammit.
And I would rather die than break my commitment.
Literally.
So here I am.
And I have no idea what to write you.
You see, I’ve already shared stories with you about my entrepreneurial journeys.
Once those were “released”, I had to dig deeper.
(Perfectionists never “finish” anything. They “release” it.)
(BTW, “perfectionism” is REALLY just self hate. I PRAY to all things good and holy that you don’t suffer from it.)
You see, I have to dig deeper because I have to keep coming up with more and more stuff for your daily emails.
So I shared success stories from the knights in my Marketing Camelot.
Then that was released.
And I was back to zero again.
So I had to dig deeper.
And… with much fear, I shared some of my deeper insights.
Then that was released.
And I had to dig deeper.
So now I’m to the point where I’m digging deeper than ever.
And I’m into the weird shit.
The stuff the 99.99% will never understand.
The crazy shit that famous dudes in the past shared…
…like Ghandi, Martin Luther King and a Jew from Galilee…
I’m talkin’ ‘bout completely BATSHIT crazy stuff.
Like “love your neighbor.”
The radical shit that all those famous dudes revealed.
And people KILLED them for it.
Soooo… it scares the beejeezus outta me to dig this deep.
But what else do I do?
I’ve already told all my stories.
I’ve already shared all my best “motivate you to success” stuff.
I’ve already used my best “shame you into getting off your ass and taking action” stuff.
I’ve used up all my ammo.
I’m empty.
But I COMMITTED to writing you an email each day.
So I’m FORCED to dig deeper.
And it scares the living shit outta me.
But I’ve discovered an undeniable truth…
Something that in the entire history of the world has NEVER been proven wrong.
And I’m scared shitless to share it.
But I HAVE to…
‘Cuz I made the commitment to dig deeper.
Listen, whatever it is you do…
Whatever it is you’ve done…
Whatever it is you want to do…
Whatever your “track record”…
Whatever you think are your successes…
Whatever you think are your failures…
Whatever you think are your strengths…
Whatever you think are your weaknesses…
Whether you think you’re God’s gift to the world…
Or you think you’re one of God’s mistakes…
Whether you think you were born to accomplish great things…
Or you wonder why you were ever born PERIOD… and you think the world would be better off without you…
There is one unequivocal truth you can count on.
Just as surely as you can count on the sun rising every morning.
Love is the answer.
Regardless of the question.
Regardless of your doubts.
Regardless if you feel on top of the world…
Or you feel so bad you just want to die.
Regardless of your faith…
Regardless of your doubt…
Regardless of ANYTHING…
It’s the answer you’re looking for.
Hell, it’s what you’ve been looking for your entire life.
It supersedes EVERYTHING.
Religion…
Politics…
Prejudice…
Racism…
Hate…
Fear…
Everything.
And yes, it really IS that simple.
Rest in that.
All the best,
Doberman Dan
P.S. Wow… I feel like I just gave birth.
To something that has been percolating in my heart for five frickin’ DECADES.
Yeah, I realize I’m not the messenger you wanted.
But I’m the one you’ve got.
And that’s better than no messenger at all.
If I haven’t scared you off… and you’re ready for truths like this, click here…
Pax vobiscum
