Introducing, a concise wisely humorous newsletter that will…
“Wipe a Smile onto
Your Face”
Matt Furey
Hey Friend,
It’s me. Matt Furey. Ya know, that Psycho-Cybernetics guy who recently wrote a new book, Enter the Zen Zone.
And man alive, do I have a surprise for you.
A surprise that will be delivered to you on the 10th day of every month.
This surprise represents the most profound and humorous quips, quotes, and questions that “come to me” from another dimension of my own mind – or some other farce field.
No. I don’t sit around thinking these quips up.
They come to me when I’m in the shower, when I’m shaving, sleeping, walking, and/or talking out loud to clients and friends.
When I hear the words that come to me, either in my own mind, or spoken out loud, I quickly jot them down so I don’t lose them.
And then once a month, I send them out in a 2-page newsletter that my customers feel compelled to immediately open and read. They tell me it’s the highlight of their month.
Minding My No-Mind
Some of the quips and questions that come to me will make you think in a way you’ve never thought before; they will stretch your mind to another dimension.
Some will make you howl with laughter; and some will be a combination of wisdom wearing the mask of humor – or humor wearing the mask of wisdom.
Regrettably, there will be a saying here or there that you may think… “stinks.”
But one thing is for certain, I do my dandiest to prevent that from happening.
Each month’s collection of questions, quotes, and quips, represents a “labor of love” I began some time ago – but without engaging in manual labor.
Mattisms on Hold
All my life people have been calling the words that have come out of my mouth, and off my pen, Mattisms. I never cared for the term then, and I still don’t now.
Although I’m far from being a humble person, I’ve never felt right about calling these sayings (and such), Mattisms. They’re more like Zen-isms, or what I now call Zen Observations.
Currently, those who are getting the wit and witticisms I put out each month, are proud members of the Goal Getter’s Gold Club.
This Gold Club, though, is more of a lightning rod that will have you saying, “I got struck by enlightening while reading your newsletter during a brainstorm.
It could also be viewed as a cattle prod that pokes you to get a lot more living, a lot more laughter, and a lot more lovin’ from what we perceive to be not enough, or “too little.”
Yes, it’s always the small stuff in our life that adds up BIG.
The small stuff, the “Divine in the Details,” as I call it, is always the real difference maker in our lives.
And oftentimes, when we’re stressed, worried, and hurried, we lose sight of how important it is to wipe the frown off our faces – and smear a smile on to replace it.
Use It or Muse It
Over the years, I’ve noted how many people have seemingly lost the laughter and the love they once had. So I began to think of ways I could give people something to feel cheery about.
That’s when it hit me: Why not start a 2-page newsletter, something short and pithy, something that’s somewhat similar to getting a monthly success scroll – something where there’s no reason to avoid reading it because you assume it will take too long to read?
The first 10 issues I wrote for Zen Observations were a test that I gave out to people to gauge interest.
They were training wheels for my mind.
They let me know whether I was connecting or not.
Turns out the connection was bigger than I imagined it would be.
So recently, with the launch of my new book, Enter the Zen Zone: The Natural Way to Get ALL Your Goals, I felt that I better strike while the iron is hot – to help you iron out any wrinkles in your game – even if you think you’re wrinkle-free.
Sure, I could have continued testing this newsletter, but when I’m being paid to do a job, which I am now, I go 100% perfectionisto. I fuss over every word, every sentence and every quip.
Why? Because the objective is to make an accountant, a lawyer, a doctor, and perhaps even a politician – smile. And if I can make those highly unfortunate people laugh a time or three, well then, I’ve done something positive for the whirld, haven’t I?
The Goal Getter’s Gold Club
So yes – it would be grand to see you become a member of the Goal Getter’s Gold Club, so I can send you my 2-page PDF of Zen Observations each and every month.
And based upon current enrollment and feedback, there’s a good chance I will expand this newsletter to 4 pages at some point, but only if it doesn’t reduce your desire to procrastinate or put off reading because you think you’re too busy – or it’s too long.
Now, if I do end up expanding this thingamajig newsletter to 4 pages, I will also include (just so you know up front), special offers on the back page for special products, at especially low prices, that you’ll never hear about anywhere else. Not even in my emails – or on my website.
“How About a Little Something for the Effort?”
About now you might be saying, “Hey Furey, if you’re the so-called Zen Master of the Internet, how about a little something for the effort? How about a quick sampling of your quips to see if this newsletter is worthy of my time, attention, and moohlah?”
Now that’s a question that’s worthy of some attention, eh?
So here I goeth with…
Sample quips to poke, pound, and prod you in the
“you’re not freakin’ funny bone”
• Success doesn’t just come to you when you learn to get your ego out of the way; it comes to you when you also learn how to get your ego IN the way. My advice to the people who are telling us to kill our egos is simple: “Leave go my ego.”
• Don’t let your daily routine become routine. If you do, you’re likely to get re-routed.
• If you want to make something out of nothing, then you gotta get really good at sitting around doing nothing – because you’ll never get an idea that’s worth anything when you’re busy doing everything.
• Instead of overlooking your goals, you need to look over them – and figure out the common denominator that exists, not in the goals you always set – but in the ones you always get.
• The purpose of keeping records is so you have a record of when you break a record.
• I was raised to believe that money doesn’t grow on trees. I now believe that money grows from trees, not on them.
• Those who think that people are in danger of losing their ability to think – haven’t completely lost their minds – but when you’re as young as I am, and have already lost some of your marbles, you know one thing: You won’t get ‘em back playing Scrabble… with your nuts instead of your marbles.
Not Brought to You by A.I.
Perhaps most importantly, you should know that I don’t get any of my quips, questions, or quotes from A.I. – and for one simple reason that will upset those who practice A.I. as if it’s a religion.
And that is… I’m an A.I.theist.
Yes! I believe in the power of human thought more than I do asking a machine to do my thinking.
This means, after I get the download for each of the quips I record, I tinker with them until God, or whomever you don’t necessarily believe in, is satisfied.
And that’s why each month’s 2-page PDF of Zen Observations will give you some highly digestible and rich food for thought.
Zen Observations is not only loaded for bear – I guarantee it will not bore you–because it’s not a boar. Then again, it’s not a sow either.
In fact, because this newsletter is a mixture of the profound and at times, the profane, it will make you laugh – but hopefully it will make you say to yourself, “Now that’s something I can use immediately. That’s something I can put in the bank. That’s something I can pass on to help others brighten their day.”
How much, Mr. Furey?
Great question, my friend. The answer is that Zen Observations isn’t going to set you back at all – but it will set you UP for greater success, more laughter and hopefully a lot more lovin’.
For only $9.95 a month you’ll get a heaping of these jolly good feel-good quips – many of which you will feel forced to memorize.
Zen Observations will be sent to you digitally by email in a power-packed PDF that you can easily print and store as a success scroll.
And anytime you’re stuck in a difficult situation, these quips will wake you up and rescue your mind – as they tickle your heart strings.
Enroll NOW for only $9.95 a month and I’ll send you the most recent issue straightaway.
BUT EVEN BETTER, when you enroll now for one year, you get 12 months for the price of 10.
On top of that, let me sweeten the pot even further. When you enroll for a year, I’ll send you all 10 of the back issues for FREE (a $100 steal). Now is that value, or what?
Other than that, all future installments will be sent to you on the 10th of each month until you say “I give up” – which hopefully never happens.
Let’s do it – together!
All the Best,
Note: Normally I would add a P.S. here – and I’m pissed that I can’t come up with one yet. Then again, that’s part of the problem so many people have – myself included at times. Whenever I try to come up with a good P.S. – I have to remind myself that a good P.S. comes through you, not to you.
