Friend - will you help me?
July 21st, 2005 at 2:51 pmDear Friend you are receiving this message because you signed up
for the Emotional Healing Quick Start Guide. If you'd like to
unsubscribe from future mailings, simply click on the link at the
bottom of the page. This issue is a lot different from most of the
others you've received from me. I didn't write an article today,
although I've certainly got a few in mind. (And at the bottom of
this message, you'll find a link to every article I've written in
the last year or so.) No, today I'm writing to ask you a simple
favor. I'm asking for your honest opinion of what I've written so
far. I'm asking your opinion for two reasons. First, it's always
good to get feedback so I'll know what I'm doing right and what I'm
doing wrong. Here's your chance to get in your 'two cents worth'.
Don't worry about hurting my feelings. I've already been insulted
many times over, from every angle you could imagine. (I used to be
offended. Now I'm just amused!) My main reason for asking your
opinion, however, is a little more selfish. I want some really nice
testimonials I can post onto my web site so other visitors will be
more inclined to sign up for this newsletter themselves. You see,
there's certain (unnamed) people who've always believed I'd never
amount to anything. I even believed it myself for many years.
Building up a huge mailing list is one way to prove them wrong.
Sure, it's a petty reason to be asking you for your testimonial,
but at least I'm honest about it! Plus, some of the things I write
about really do help people, according to the many hundreds of nice
letters I've already received over the last few years. Every time I
get one of those letters, I think, "Gee, maybe I should save that
in a separate file and ask the sender if I could use it..." And
every time I end up just blowing it off; always planning to get to
it later, but it seems I never do. Until today. So here's what I'd
like you to do: Hit REPLY right now and just rattle off whatever
comes to mind when you think of this newsletter. Don't worry about
spelling, punctuation, grammar, and all that stuff. Just write from
the heart. If you feel gratitude, express it. If you think I'm an
arrogant so-and-so, express it. Just write whatever comes up. Make
it as long or as short as you wish. Then at the bottom sign your
name, your first name, your initials - whatever feels comfortable.
Then put your town, your state, your country, or some other
geographical feature you'd like to be identified with. If you'd
rather keep your comments personal that's okay also. Just write
DON'T PUBLISH at the bottom. Believe me, I'll respect your wishes!
Thanks for taking a minute to do this. Your opinion really means a
lot to me. And if you're new, or just curious, here's that link to
a whole bunch of articles I've written in the past -

raw feed, and may contain some errors and duplicate messages. I
didn't have time to 'pretty it up'. Thanks again, and I look
forward to hearing from you! all the best, Mark brought to you by
