I, too googled flying high and fieldstone green. Yours was the first response it pulled. I appreciated your blog which answered all my questions immediately.

I have read all of the E-Myth books and have learned and grown from them. IIf nothing else, I am motivated when I read these types of books…and I like feeling motivated!

I understand peoples feeling of being ‘decieved’ by the fictitious company. I personally don’t feel that way. Mr. Gerber accomplished his goal with the story, We have all taught through stories and we have all BEEN taught through stories since childhood. They help us understand concepts.

Why waste energy being upset about how he presented the concept? My energy is better spent identifying the concepts and tools that have been presented to me that can help me improve my business and my life.

Interesting. Kind of like woot.com, but with discounted local goods and services instead of refurbished products.

Sadly, my net worth hasn’t even hit $100,000 yet, so I’m probably not going to be able to invest very substantially.

Actually, the comment was pure genius. A little low maybe. There are just a few of us that are posting here but I’m guessing that there are hundreds if not thousands of folks that did the same thing. There’s no reason to be upset by it and we should learn to think outside the box when it comes to marketing and sometimes being a litlle outrageous will produce fantastic results. Marketing doesn’t have to be boring. It can be thought provoking and imaginative. Way to go on getting Google’s top spot!

Congratulations. So, are you one of the 40% that the government sends a check to, just for filling out your tax form?

Comment on Square Foot Gardening – My Experience So Far by matthew

Thanks for the comment Ron. It would be nice to have a large area dedicated for seeds, but I’m starting out small this year with one tray of seeds. I believe there are 72 slots and we have 70 of them filled right now. Most have sprouted and I can’t wait to get them outside.
