		<itunes:summary>Your opinion not only doesn't matter, your opinion is DANGEROUS.

Why? nbsp;Because your opinion is a belief, NOT fact.

Most people's opinions do not match with reality. nbsp;For years people ldquo;knewrdquo; the world was flat. nbsp;Their opinion was not true and kept them from fully understanding their place in the universe.

Your wrong opinions may be hurting you andnbsp;keeping you from moving forward and attaining the success you desire.

What About Expert Opinions​?

Experts are often wrong. nbsp;Even well-trained experienced doctors make mistakes. nbsp;Expert police and judges who "believe" a defendant guiltynbsp;convict innocent men every year.

Expert accountants at large companies still can't predict what the company's profits will be 5 years from now.

Expert marketers are often are wrong about what products will sell the best.

Here is an example from my personal experience. nbsp;I spent $1,000s each month in advertising without tracking.nbsp; As an Internet marketing expert I thought I had a pretty good idea of what would work. nbsp;When I started tracking my advertising, I found that 90% of my advertising didn't work. nbsp;So if I spent $1000 dollars in advertising,nbsp; I could have made the same money by spending $100 - OUCH!

Here is another personal example. nbsp;I came across a screen saver traffic system and was POSITIVE it wouldn't work.nbsp; But my previous advertising experience had taught me that my opinion didn't matter. nbsp;Sonbsp;I tried it and tracked it.nbsp; The results? nbsp;it was my BEST converting source of traffic that month and has continued to be one of my top sources even today.

It was SO good that I decided to launch my own screen saver traffic system!

So If your opinions may be wrong and even dangerous and expert opinions are often wrong, what do you do?

Instead of opinions ndash; get the facts!

Use expert's opinions as a starting point, not as the final word on a topic. nbsp;When advertising online, Test and track what you do, In medical cases, get actual tests done instead of just the doctor's opinion and get a second doctor to check.

Put aside your opinion and open your mind to the possibility that you may be wrong. nbsp;Success ONLY comes when you are dealing with reality.

Because I want to EARN MONEY. This is how I earn my living, so instead of traffic I want subscriber signups and sales. If one traffic [...]]]></description>
