Can you imagine deciding it's your goal to
beat Tiger Woods at golf? Well, you'd certainly have your
work cut out for you. First, Tiger was born with the exact
mental and physical attributes required to play great golf.
And, if I'm not mistaken, he's had a golf club in his hands
since he was 3-years old. And even though he is the best
golfer in the world, I'll bet he still continues to practice
more than any of his competitors.

Can you imagine having a goal of becoming
wealthier than Bill Gates? I can't even begin to think of a
way to intelligently attempt to achieving that goal.

Having said all that, you are probably
thinking I am conceited about the gift I have for writing.
You are dead wrong. Many people who've had the opportunity
to personally watch me work have marveled at how good I am
and they are insanely jealous of me. But I can tell you, if
you lived inside my mind and body... that jealousy would
fade away like a Key West sunset!

I think a lot of gifted people feel that
way. Someone desperately wishes they could play music or
sing as well as the star on stage. But that star, at the
same time, may be suffering from suicidal thoughts, anxiety
and feelings of worthlessness.

Listen, I don't want to ramble on and on
about this so let me get to the point: You may never be able
to ride a bicycle like Lance Armstrong. You may never play
golf as good as Tiger Woods. You may never become as wealthy
as Bill Gates. You may never be able to play a guitar
like Dickey Betts. And... let's face it... you'll probably never
be able to...

Write Copy As Good As Gary Halbert!

That being said, you probably CAN learn to
ride a bike, CAN hit some golf balls, CAN make some money,
or CAN write copy good enough to have some fun and
maybe even make a little profit.
