Time for a bit of tough lovin’…<\/p>\n
A reader asks:<\/p>\n
I totally respect and understand your decision for sticking with print. However\u00a0it would be nice to consider being able to get a digital format (maybe Kindle or something) for those who travel from spot to spot and don’t want to rely on someone else scanning it and emailing it over.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
I’ve answered variations of this question before.<\/p>\n
But, it’s been a while.<\/p>\n
And so, I’ll reiterate my position:<\/p>\n
If you want it bad enough, you’ll find a way to receive it (despite the inconvenience — real or imagined), and devour it probably 10x’s more intensely than everyone else, and profit from it 10x’s more abundantly than everyone else, precisely because it IS so inconvenient.<\/p>\n
This analogy isn\u2019t exactly the same, of course.<\/p>\n
But, I’m the same way with some things:<\/p>\n
I hate watching videos, for example.<\/p>\n
I prefer audio.<\/p>\n
That way, I can listen\/learn while walking my dog, etc.<\/p>\n
So I tediously take the time to rip the audio off of videos using an RCA cable and a voice recorder. (Yes, I know there’s an easier way, but so it is…)<\/p>\n
Anyway, it’s a total pain in the gluteus assimus.<\/p>\n
But guess what happens?<\/p>\n
I use and benefit from it FAR more as a result. What I don’t do is ask the publisher\/author\/marketer to change their formatting and delivery mechanism just for lil’ ol’ me.<\/p>\n
After all\u2026<\/p>\n
If the product\u2019s good, they’re doing me a favor<\/span>.<\/strong><\/p>\n
Not vice versa.<\/p>\n
As far as my world-traveler readers:<\/p>\n
I promise elBenbo doesn’t hate you.<\/p>\n
But, hear you me:<\/p>\n
There are services that will scan it for you. A quick Google search will take care of that, so that’s not really an excuse *if* you want it bad enough. Frankly, the added expense will simply make you value it more if you’re someone with an investment mindset (i.e. you value your time, implement the info, make money from it, and realize it’s a long term investment, not an overnight riches thang) instead of an opportunity-minded person (i.e. wander the goo-roo casino playing every game with the brightest lights, think of “Email Players” as an expense vs an investment, and are too weak-minded to implement…)<\/p>\n
All right.<\/p>\n
’nuff said.<\/p>\n
I like making people jump through a few hoops.<\/p>\n
It’s taken me many years, many tens of thousands of dollars, and many frustrating failures to learn the stuff I basically give away for what comes out to $3.23 per day.<\/p>\n
Subscribing to my product ain’t a right,<\/strong> it’s a *privilege*.<\/strong><\/p>\n
