Here is a video explaining how to easily get setup:

Yes, you’re witnessing the ultimate example of me geeking out…
There’s a new movie coming out this October, about Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg.
It is my belief, that when it comes to internet, internet technologies, internet revolutions, trends, web properties, businesss, successes… there is NOBODY that holds a candle to the monster that Mark Zuckerberg created.
I view Facebook as possibly the most important use of the Internet ever created.
It is a marvel.
It unites families.
Builds friendships.
And sparks off relationships and marriages.
It preserves memories.
It gives the shy bunch a way to connect and the extroverts (like me) a way to manage all their contacts.
And it’s an incredible tool for landing deals, leads, clients and business relationships.
That all barely scratches the surface.
It’s the 8th or 9th wonder of the world (or whatever we’re up to).
And as an obvious internet-business geek myself and one who is VERY FOND of the community business model and happens to be in the same age bracket as Mark… well, I’m just hopping up and down for this movie’s release.
I’m far from a movie buff but I’m addicted to base-on-a-true-story movies about interesting individuals.
Watch the trailer for “The Social Network”.

Trailer #2:
TELL ME that doesn’t grip you.
And if it doesn’t, then you’re no internet nerd. (so maybe that’s a good thing).
Jesse Eisenberg plays Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg. Justin Timberlake is also in here.
P.S. I’m a really big fan of based-on-a-true-story movies about interesting individuals. I’d love to hear of any great ones that you know of that I (and others) should watch.
Here are my current favorites in this genre…
* The Social Network (it will be a favorite, no question)
* Ray
* Ali
* Into The Wild
* The Aviator
* Invincible
* Get Rich or Die Trying
* 8 Mile

I just closed out July 2010 as my best personal income month to date. I made more cash-in-hand spendable money (ie: net income, not gross sales) this past July then I used to make back in my job days working a full time AND a part-time job in a YEAR.
Process that: more in one month of work, then I used to make working roughly 55 hours per week as an employee for a year.
And I just finished 6 hours of ramping up a gameplan for this August to even surpass that…
And I put in a lot of hours and work to make that happen.
I WORKED for it and I accomplished my goal…
Yet there are probably even some readers of this article, RIGHT NOW, who see the above as bragging or showing off or just otherwise rude and taboo.
It seems, to some, I’m not allowed to celebrate the results of my skill-set which happens to be marketing and sales strategy.
To some, we’re just not allowed to celebrate business and monetary successes.
And here’s my hang-up about all this…
I spent some time with friends this weekend and through conversations I mentioned this accomplishment. I got smiles and nods but only one or 2 “good for you” or “congratulations” (which was nice to hear). I also got 1 friend saying “that’s nice, why are you telling me this?” and another saying “do me a favor and next time you have a ‘record month’ don’t tell me about it”.
Huh??
Those last 2 replies surprised me.
One of them is a guy who is built like a warrior out of the movie 300, and wins mixed martial arts fights regularly and excitedly announces every win. Well, I”D like to do that!!
The other is from a gorgeous girl friend who wins probably half of every swim-suit and bikini type competitions she enters (she’s been in dozens!!). And she quickly sends me a text to announce each win.
Well, as someone who just a year ago took up boxing… I sure wouldn’t mind knowing that I’m winning fights left right and center. But I’m not. Not yet.
And as a male, I certainly wouldn’t mind having a room full of women whistling and voting for me (though, hopefully not in a BIKINI competition).
So why is financial success taboo??
Unless I’m talking to mover-and-shaker entrepreneur friends, talking about numbers is a no no.
And I completely disagree with it.
Namely because I believe you should celebrate ALL of your successes.
Whether you’re winning fights or in other sports, or swim suit competitions or writing contests or poker tournaments … if you know you worked hard for it and you achieved a goal, enjoy it.
I almost let a couple of friends make me feel BAD about hitting my goal and a new milestone (top net inc*ome month). That would have been ridiculous! I’m glad I caught myself so I wanted to write this and remind YOU to enjoy YOUR successes … even if they are financial/business related.
And surround yourself with other peers who can help you celebrate. Always keep building your mastermind.
