F Something with a 13 in it – the time is nigh!!!

by nigelyip on February 3, 2009

Hey Everyone,

Firstly, I like to take this opportunity to Thank all that have supported me over the past few months and since the coaching course has started, but unfortunately I have decided that I would bid farewell to you all as I have decided to leave. The reason I am quitting is that my focus and passion for this course seems to have deserted me and also, to me personally, it feels likes 100/0 rule rather than the 80/20 rules for me – that is 100% effort / 0% returns.

Prior to this and during the first few modules, I was always excited, raring to go and pretty much highly motivated, as some will have seen, however, now though, and I don’t want to sound rude or anything,  expecially yesterday’s webinar: module 6 and also module 5,  I somehow managed to nod off several occasions during both seminars – if you have read module 6 -part 1 you will know.

So, Why did I nod off on several occasions? I simply, really don’t know, but what I do know though is that, the course simply has dragged on longer than I expected which unfortunately meant that all my planning has been screwed up despite various re-planning and even those have to be thrown out of the window too.

Additionally, I don’t want to make it hard work for Alex, or everyone else either, especially since he did promise to everyone one of us in his sales video, that he would spend no matter how much time and effort necessary, in helping everyone one of us achieve online success. Not only, this, I personally do not want to hinder Alex, himself, or your success  in any way either, towards achieving and surpassing your $1 Millon dollars dreams & targets.

You are all a wonderful bunch of great guys and gals who are dedicating to helping others, and you all deserve every success you have and more. Most notable Alex, for venturing out his first coaching course and to create such great might and force in such a short space of time.

What I must mention is that my time with being in the fortunate 500, I do feel exceptional privileged to have met you all, however on the other hand I have felt overly stressed out and exhausted, and am under performing, hence another reason why I have decided to leave.

Although I am prematurely departing before graduation, I will still apply what Alex has taught me, I guess I will simply do it just at my own pace, maybe with a twist or something. Currently, for me there is something that doesn’t quite fit in, maybe I’m not ready for this, maybe I just need to take some time off, refresh my mind and re-plan, re-read the 4-Hour Work Week – and maybe then, I might be more adversed with tackling this online Internet Marketing Niche business chess game.

Good Luck to you all and all the best with your future endeavors and ventures
Nigel

PS: Remember the clue: “F Something with a 13 in it?” =  can you spot the clue?   Hint: Something beginning with the letter F contains the number 13 in it?

Answer: the month February begins with the Letter “F’ and it is something that contains a 13 in it i.e. the 13th day and what a great coincidence too: Friday 13th February 2009!!! aka Black Friday

Hi Nigel,

I am so sad to hear you are leaving the rest of the students. I can understand what you say about the 100% effort and 0% return.

You have helped me so much along the way and I must say if it was not for being able to read your Lights Camera Action ebook I would not have had a video up on you tube. Your book was so simple to understand for a newbie like me.

May I wish you luck with your future ventures

Keep in Touch
Christine

Hi Christine,

Thanks for visiting and I’m glad that during my time with you and everyone else in the fortunate 500, I have been able to offer you all, something of value and yes, I hope to keep in touch with you all as well.

All the best and good luck to you too.
Nigel

Hey Nigel,

Well I didn’t see that coming mate!

I’m going to email you later anyway but I thought I would say a few things here. I know you have thought long and hard over this so it must be the right choice for you. You have achieved so much already and whether you remained in this coaching or not, I have no doubt you will be a success.

Keep the blog going mate and most of all keep in touch, I still want that future JV with you!

All the best
Mark

4 Jo 02.04.09 at 11:50 am

Nigel, I am sorry to see you are leaving. Whilst both of us have not really been introduced in the 500, I have heard from other colleagues and seen your blog how a) helpful you are and b) how you are up there with the top performers. Most uf us are realitevly new at this and when you throw 500 people together of different backgrounds,ages and careers together to learn at the same time, well its not going to happen at the same pace. Is it!! I would suggest you think on a bit here, take time out and stand back from the issue and perhaps if you do this you may change your mind. If you don’t well I wish you the best but as I say, your blog speaks for itself . Best Wishes.
Jo

5 Nigel Yip 02.04.09 at 12:37 pm

Hi Jo,

Thanks for visiting and I’m sorry I haven’t been able to met you sooner. I totally understand what you have been saying about the group as I have blogged about it before prior to Christmas in one of my module review post, it sounded like a motivational post rather than a module review lol. But yes, some will know that I have been contemplating this decision since mid December and yesterday module 6 was really the last straw for me.

Good Luck and best wishes to you too
Nigel

6 Jo 02.04.09 at 5:17 pm

Nigel, thanks for the comments. Well as someone else said up above here, keep in touch. You have our e-mail addresses. You never know, I may offer you a 2nd ticket to Las Vegas ( Don’t hold your breath, I don’t think I could win a 2nd class ticket to Bognor Regis at this rate) BUT the Toirtoise won the race over the Hare, isnt that true. Thats my mantra you see, keeps me going, otherwise the only place I would go is around the bend!! I am as slow as a funeral with this (good Irish saying) but I will keep at it cos a) Im skint and need dosh and b) I am a member of the mad, bad and sad brigade. In other words, nothing else to fill my lonely life!!. So I will keep having nightmares about Grommetts er sorry Widgets and you kep well and in touch. Tortoise Jo

7 Dean Holland 02.05.09 at 7:44 am

Nigel …. brother !!??

I heard rumours, but I didnt believe them man :(

Your quitting and doing yourself short… Thats not right !! Look at how much you have done

I cant believe what I am reading… Please dont take any offence at all from what I am about to say….

But it has only been about 7 weeks … What are you expecting ?!!?!

Come on man, we were told from the start not to expect ‘get rich quick’ but to build a business so I am unsure for your reason of giving up in such a short space of time ??

Dont mistake my upset for anger here bro, I just saw you as one of the leaders in the f500… Nigel Yip a.k.a The video expert guy !

Well I guess a guys gotta do what a guys gotta do… Just dont sell yourself short of something that could be special.

Where has this mind set come from then mate ?? Just weeks ago you were fired up with passion now your ending it all.. DAMN bro, come on.. You can do this.. Who says it all has to be done at the same pace ?! Go at your own speed, if you need a couple of weeks out then fine but dont throw it all away. The refund period has now passed so I know your not just after the money back so I just cant figure this out dude

Whatever your decision I wish you all the best and I want you to know we all support you…. I wont lie, as Im sure you can tell from my words.. It would be disappointing to see all your work go to waste… Months away from now it could be a whole different story

Ultimately you know whats best, as long as its for the right reasons !! I dont believe that lack of quick results and having to work hard are reasons for quitting…

Well done for getting this far, I hope you go on further !!

Dean

8 James 02.05.09 at 11:47 am

Hey, Nigel!

I’m with Dean on this one… I could see there were a few things bothering you but I didn’t think you’d quit the game! You’ve progressed further than many of us, and I had you down as one of the success stories. You’ve done so much good stuff!

There’s a couple of things you’ve written that I didn’t understand…

What was it about module 6 that blew it for you?

What is it that’s convincing you that even out of the active 500, only a few can succeed?

And what did you mean when you wrote:
‘I should have listened to my gut instinct which has been telling me something I chose to ignore until recently…It

9 Nigel Yip 02.05.09 at 12:59 pm

Hi Dean

How you doing bro? the guy who’s actually making money on this course lol! Thanks for your supportive message and I appreciate your time for dropping by, you’re great guy and you highlighted quite a good few points there, but I know your doing something different to everyone else here and I know that after several hard thinking sessions, that this is the right choice for me. I’m going to still be in the internet marketing niche but the only difference is that I’m going to do somethings slightly differently to everyone else, just like what I have noticed you have done as well. The blogging won’t be going to waste as I’m not going to close it down, I have quitea few things in store which need some serious thinking and implementing.

All the best
Nigel

Hello Nigel

Yes, I had an inkling you weren’t happy with some aspects of the programme and nor am I. However, I’m like Mastermaind questions: “I’ve started so I’ll finish”

I left the Triple Threat after 1 hor 45 minutes. I’ll listen to the rest this week-end when I hope he gets round to telling us what The Triple Threat Affiliate is.

I think too, he was preparing us for the end of the programme soon.

I’m very sorry to see you go. Like others I had you down as one of the leading lights even though you weren’t featured as much as others on the calls.

I respect your decision to leave but I’ll try to follow what you’re doing. Oh and like James, I didn’t understand some of your comments.

Very Best Wishes Nigel
Joe

11 Ken Douglas 02.05.09 at 10:51 pm

Nigel,

I would like to say that you suprised me but in all honesty we exchanged comments some time back that caused me to think you were considering some changes. Like you, I am on the short end of the income generating scene at this point. While I am at times frustrated I am trying a number of things and will eventually put the tools I have learned from this course (including the video tools which you so clearly presented) together in a manner which will eventually help me to reach my internet goals.

Accept my sincerest thanks for the things I have learned from you.

It is my belief that each of us have our own paths to follow. It is my wish that yours brings you success and happiness.

Ken

12 Paull Hamilton 02.06.09 at 12:20 am

Hi Nigel,

To be honest with you Nigel I had come to the conclusion a few weeks ago that you were not very happy. All I can say is that I wish you the best of luck in whatever you decide to pursue, and the open invitation still stands to visit Mallorca when you want..

All the very best,

Paull

13 Thom Swartwood 02.06.09 at 10:13 am

Nigel,

Stopped over the other day and was floored to see your post. I do understand what you are saying and we all have to do what we believe in our hearts is right for us. I am glad to hear you are not going to shutdown this blog and that you have some plans you are going to be working on.

I have to thank you once again for all of your help. Without your help, support and feedback I would still be struggling with my first video. You and your eBook helped me a lot.

I look forward to see where you are going and if I can ever be of any help, please don’t hesitate to ask.

Thanks again

Thom

14 Nigel Yip 02.06.09 at 10:15 am

Hi James

Thanks for your supportive message, I’, ever so sorry to have dissapointed you that I could not be one of the success stories, but I must make clearly to everyone that although I may have decided and left the coaching course, I will still be following you all and I will still be plotting my way to online success but just slightly different to you all.

There are quite a few things in Module 6 which blew and unfortunately I would prefer not to mention them as I don’t want to be rude, or insult anyone. It’s not like I haven’t done enough damage to myself anyway and annoyed everyone else.

My gut instinct is to do with my style of blogging, the way I interact with others and that I am not offering enough to help others and create this value concept that Alex is banging on about plus I’m
I’m in a fear of something which I cannot be certain unless I have researched into this topic more fully. There are lots of other nagging doubts, questions and thought which are bothering me. Maybe I should write a book about what bothering me – I don’t know but I’m going to get back to working on my latest project – so speak soon

All the best and good luck to you too
James!!!

15 Nigel Yip 02.06.09 at 10:19 am

Hi Joe,

Firstly thanks for dropping by and I noticed you changed your name to PLR Unleashed – your mastermind approach is great and it will sure help you succeed with whatever online venture and business your do online. I have replied to James question about the confusion, so possibly, you could read it there? if that’s ok with you.

Yeah I will come and check you out too whenever I have time

Good luck and best wishes to you too Joe
Nigel

Hi Ken

Thanks you for your such sincere message. I hope your path also brings you great success and happiness too.

Best Wishes

Hi Paull

Thanks for your message – I wish you all the best of success with your online business, video creation and everything you do. Thanks for the invitation and

Good luck and best wishes to you too!!!
Nigel

18 Valerie Davies 02.06.09 at 11:00 am

Hi Nigel,

Well, I am shocked and startled and shivered to my thick socks. I have been out of circulation for a few weeks, but to be greeted by “Nigel Quits” is like being struck down by a bolt of lightning. I have not even heard Module 6 yet. I’m worried what I might find.

I agree with Gazz-Man in that

19 Hilary Dickinson 02.06.09 at 1:05 pm

Hi Nigel

Well it was a surprise to me too. I know that various people have either left or are considering their position on the coaching course. It is up to each individual to make their own decisions – we cannot make them for someone else, though we can of course support and help.

There are many of us, like me, who are total newbies to this and have a long way to go before we even get someone on our list, let alone start to make money. My view though is that what I have already learned and the friendships I have made have been worth what I paid for this course.

I shall do things my own way – my conscience does not allow me to do otherwise, but there is plenty of room out there for us all. As Harry Harris would say “May the Force be with you”!

Thanks to for your ebook – it helped me to get going with my video. So you do leave quite a legacy here.

Hilary

20 Alan Neath 02.06.09 at 1:14 pm

Hello Nigel

Glad to read that your keeping your blog up and running, it represents a lot of work already invested, so it’s a good decision to keep it alive.

I write to you as a fellow student wrestling with what to do next, and perhaps not as successful as you, however, I am determined to stay the full course and then apply all i can to the future.

I am sad to see one of the few 500 who have gritted it out so far, and in your case been a leader too.

There was a time when i felt that the 500 could be a unique and powerful alliance of people to work along side, to learn together, help each other, find success, and then teach other to replicate the same, my vision of a brave new world on the internet.

Sadly, the statistics have won again and the Utopian plan is another that will never meet the dreams for so many.

I imagine the f 500 will never be fully fulfilled, and overtime will split and divide into the individual directions of the few that remain, who like you will follow their own plan and future.

The truth is inevitable, so it only remains to say thank you and good luck !

Soldier on !
Alan

21 Theresa Mayhew 02.06.09 at 1:33 pm

Hello Nigel,
However you came to this decision, it must not have been an easy one.

Thank you for all you have done to help.

I don’t actually consider you a quitter, just redirecting your energies.

Keep in touch,
Theresa

22 Steven 02.06.09 at 1:39 pm

Nigel,

Don’t quit :O( I know how you feel :O( Everyday I think of quitting, then I don’t because i want FREEDOM!!!! I want a better life. If I give up now, then I give up on my dreams and goals in life. I go through all of the depressing emotions. But I am still plugging away. All we have is each other. We all need to work more together and learn from each other. Yes, I want to make 1000′s of dallors a week RIGHT NOW!!! :O) But I know it takes time. I don’t have the money to go take classes and hang out with the BIG GURU’s. All I have is the F500. Don’t give up!!! :O( If you ever, EVER need any advice or help on anything let me know and that goes for the F500 students too. I will do my best to help.

Don’t quick!!!

Steven :O)

23 Susan Livingstone 02.06.09 at 1:45 pm

Nigel, I hear your frustration. A lot of people in the group share it. I’m glad to hear that you are going to continue plugging away, even if in some other direction. Determination always pays off eventually! At least, that’s what I keep telling myself…

Good luck to you,
Susan

24 Robin Pike 02.06.09 at 2:33 pm

Hi Nigel:

It certainly shows that you are loved by everyone here. You have proven that you have what it takes to be successful and I have no doubt that we will hear about your successful very soon!!!

I commend you on being up front and honest about your feelings. I have no doubt that there are many others that feel the same way — hense the reason there are only about 120 active students — but others can’t be so open and share their thoughts so they just drop out quietly.

I completely feel your discouragement of the 80/20 rule… I too have experienced 100/0 (I love the way you put that by the way) despite all the hard work I have put into what I’ve learned. I have followed every single thing I was told to do but it just doesn’t seem to work for me. I actually requested a refund last week but was told that I was 11 days beyond the deadline to receive a refund. So, since I have no choice I will be continuing with the program; hoping and praying something will turn around for me… soon! The way I am looking at it at this point is, it is paid for, there is more to hear about so why not get what you can out of it …

There have been multiple things I have not been happy with, starting with the extension of the program — and just to note the first Module started on November, 24th — that was 2 months and 2 weeks ago (10 weeks ago)!!!! Six weeks more than we heard it would be from the sales video, not to mention it has gone way beyond Christmas!

I will not go into the many other reasons of my dissatisfaction here but will let you know that I do NOT feel you are being premature in your decision as previously mentioned by another student. We were expecting this to be a fast paced course — those who couldn’t keep up should have been offered the additional support — which would have allowed the others who were comfortable with the fast pace to excel and achieve what we were told could be expected!

Just for the record, at this point in the course, I by no means expect to have gotten rich… however, I would like to have more than 12 people on my list and have at least a sale or two to show for all my efforts. I personally feel the expectations were set too high in the sales video that we all saw — as are all the others that are out there.

I would love to talk to you further about something me and few others are working on putting together (outside of the program) and see if you may be interested in joining our “team”. On my blog there is a “contact me” page that you can use to reach me.

Here is to your success — and our success should you chose to join my little team.

Robin :-)

25 Susan Owen-Thursfield 02.06.09 at 3:20 pm

Hi Nigel -

I applaud your brave decision. Reading your post I did not hear that you were quitting or leaving internet marketing – just refocusing to something “more you”. I know a number of people have got refunds and more still, like you, are feeling that the 100:0 ratio isn’t what they expected from the course.

I think the one thing that still doesn’t sit well with me is that the product AJ gave us was actually his – the affiliate codes on the download pages are his too and how many total newbies would have a clue how to change them? – and although he said a couple of times “just knock out a quick ebook of your early successes to build your list” – my “early successes” never arrived. A list of about 60, with 1 sale doesn’t constitute enough success to lie through my teeth in an ebook. I have enrolled in another course to help me write my own product. When that’s in place, I will revisit what Alex has taught us. I was never comfortable positioning myself as an AJ super affiliate – I respect the guy enormously but I want to be able to earn money in my own niches AND at times when AJ doesn’t happen to be releasing another product.

Although the course has not proven to be the “taxi to success” that we just “hopped in” – more like a motorbike for the favoured – I have learnt a huge amount on this course – and not just from Alex. I would NEVER have got a video up so soon – and you are in no small part responsible. Thank you.

If you need a measure of how much you’ve connected on this course, just look at the number of comments you’ve got here.

I will continue to watch what you’re doing and I hope our paths continue to cross.

Best wishes

Susan

26 Paul Livingston 02.06.09 at 4:53 pm

Quitting? I don’t get it. What are you quitting? Alex’s coaching program? Internet marketing? What?

I don’t know that that’s just a wise move at this point Nigel. After all, we just started. Yeah, I know Alex said we’d be making money by last Christmas, but I think that was just his youthful exuberance talking.

Be patient…most of the people who fail at IM fail because they quit too soon!

You have talent and skill. Use them to build your business. Take what Alex teaches and use what works, dump what doesn’t.

I advise all my subscribers to stay OUT of the IM niche. It’s too crowded and filled with heavy-hitter competition. Choose different, profitable, niches and build your businesses there.

Best of luck to you!

27 Nigel Yip 02.06.09 at 6:11 pm

Hi Thom

Thank you for your supportive comment, I’m sorry to have disappointed you and everyone else, but I am glad that I have been able to help you out with something and yes I will be definitely be keeping this blog going.

All the best and I will too look forward to seeing what you and the others do as well.

Best Regards and wishes
Nigel

28 Nigel Yip 02.06.09 at 7:17 pm

Hey Valerie

Thank you for your interesting concept about the baby and the bathwater – I do apologies if my decision had such an effect as your described, but after 2 months of contemplating, serious thinking, decisions, queries, soul searching etc… I’ve come to my conclusion and thank you also for respecting my decision too. I would certainly love to keep in touch with you and everyone else who, are, were or was in the F500 and yes, please feel free to drop me message via email or a comment on the blog to discuss anything you wish or if you think of anything I can help you with or you would like to ask, again, just email or blog me.

All the best to you too as well Valerie
Nigel

PS: Don’t worry too much about Module 6 either, each persons receptive and perception is different.

29 Nigel Yip 02.06.09 at 7:32 pm

Hi Hilary,

Thanks for your support and yes what you said about “it is up to each individual to make their own decisions” is so true. As you also pointed out, meeting everyone else, all the learning processes etc… is definitely worth the course fee, in fact it like some things in life that, money simply can’t buy. But unfortunately, life is life and we all have to move on and decide as well as follow our own chosen path to success. Anyway, I’m glad that my ebook has been of some help you in some way with creating videos

All the best
Nigel

30 Nigel Yip 02.06.09 at 7:42 pm

Hi Alan,

Thanks for your message and I have to say I’m sorry I haven’t been able to help you fulfill your dream of forging ahead with the rest of the others in F500, and creating your vision. Unfortunately you are right about statistics, the problems is that us humans have far too many variables which is one of the main reason, I believe, that lets statistics win. Given the perfect scenario, even then it would still be hard to defeat statistics.

Anyway, Good Luck and all the best to you too
Nigel

31 Nigel Yip 02.06.09 at 7:44 pm

Hey Theresa

Thanks for your message, and you know what? You’re so correct about the redirecting energies issue and I thank you for noticing it.

All the best and yeah keep in touch
Nigel

32 Nigel Yip 02.06.09 at 7:49 pm

Hi Steven

Thank you for your comment and I understand your point about hanging out with the Big Gurus, and about making money. And yes making money is great and yes Freedom is great too. but to me, there also something else (a few things in fact) that’s missing, this is what I’m trying to figure and what I want to pursue as well.

Like you said, if you think I can be of help with anything, (and this also goes to everyone else), please do not hesistate to contact me and I will try and get back to you asap.

All the best
Nigel

33 Nigel Yip 02.06.09 at 7:51 pm

Hi Susan

Thanks for your message and yes you are right about determination does eventually pay off, but sometimes it’s not just about determination, it about something else.

All the best and Good Luck to you too
Nigel

34 Nigel Yip 02.06.09 at 8:21 pm

Hi Robin

Thank you comment and sorry to hear about your refund issue, I personally didn’t know there was a 60 day refund option, but then again, there’s no Free Lunches in this world lol and yeah I’m glad to have been able to share, vent about my feelings. I find it much better than bottling things up and keeping it to myself. If I did, I guess my hair would be all grey now but then, one has to ask the question, of those who left, how many did set up a blog?

Your idea of milking and wringing as much as possible from the course is certainly worthy of doing and I’m sorry to hear about your dissatisfaction too. You speak my mind on some of the issues I also contemplated and influenced my decisions too. Plus I totally agree with you about we should be rewards with at least a sale or two, but I guess with 500 students all launching the same product, not to mentions Alex’s JV’s who already have major mailing lists to promote to, it was simply far too saturated and those who did get the odd random sale, well done to them. You are also correct that the video and and high expectations promised in the video.

Anyway thank you for your offer, I shall give it some deep consideration and will contact you as soon I have come to a decision.

All the best and Good luck with everything
Nigel

35 Nigel Yip 02.06.09 at 8:29 pm

Hi Susan,

Firstly thank you for your wonderful message and you are so correct about the refocusing part. Now I don’t know about the refund issue or who has managed to get a refund, but I think as everyone has been telling me there is a 60day policy. But then again, I didn’t ask Alex for a refund either and I’m not fussed as to whether I get one or not. Meeting you guys and gals have been priceless.

I’m glad that you pointed out about the AJ Product, I too thought it was disturbing to find links just with his affiliated id’s. Well, you’ve certainly done better than me in terms of getting 1 sale from it. I haven’t even made a single sale yet and 98% of my subscribers are all from my Lights…Camera…Action! eBook. And yep, I know what you mean about being a AJ Super Affiliate as it was also one of the key issues that also bugged me during my decision as to whether quit or not.

Anyway I wish you all the best with your online business and the new course your own and yeah, keep in touch and hopefully I’ll see you and everyone else soon again.

Good Luck and best wishes to you too
Nigel

36 Rob Brooks 02.06.09 at 11:45 pm

Hi Nigel,
I appreciate your honesty. It took guts. Also I’m glad your not quitting Internet Marketing. I think perhaps Alex made a mistake telling us how easy it would be to make money by Christmas. I’m sure he realizes that by now. What he is really teaching is a long term effort to build a real business. So the short term specifics of how to make real money right now have alluded many of us.

For my self I am combining learning both. The big picture from Alex. And I am also in another Mentoring Class that teaches short modules on practical ways that don’t take much time to bring in real money.

So having both perspectives which are very different are complimenting my growth very well. I did get much out of Module #6. I have been wanting to hear some real inside info from List Builders for a long time. I feel Alex delivered that very well. So the fact that you were dosing off may just be where each of us are at and so we heard everything different.

I never thought the idea of Building a List on Alex’s Product was a good idea for me unless I wanted to specialize right now in List Building techniques. So I by-passed his list product and put an Opt-In on my blog for what I really know which is Video Marketing and giving away a very through e-book I wrote on that subject instead.

Alex will learn much if he receives all opinions for the class. I think he should take a survey. This is just his first effort at Coaching. This type of class is never perfected at a first try. But I am happy with it so far and still feel it was a bargain for just $500. Though I am disappointed he never instituted the forum that was discussed at the very beginning. I think that would have been the best way for all of us to communicate since keeping in touch with so many blogs has been overwhelming. (Though Of Course it has been good to at least get to know some of our classmates)

Best Wishes and you have done well just getting people having an honest discussion on the class.

Hi Nigel,

I am shocked and truly sad that another F500 is leaving this chess game of online. I was floored and speechless that you made this hasty decision so quickly. Just 7 weeks!! I still can’t believe that you decided to quit. I have never had a chance to really learn from you but I have heard about you from some of the students blog. I had tears rolling my cheeck when I read this post. This is my second time I am leaving a comment on your blog and certainly won’t be last. The reason is I am still a newbie in this game and still so much to learn. That’s why I am slow leaving comments on your blog.

I hope you will reconsider your decision but if you decided you won’t change your mind, I will respect your decision.

Best wishes and good luck to you. Whatever you do, I am sure you will achieve your financial success sooner than later. No doubt about it. Take care and keep in touch always.

Sincerely.
Jeffrey

Hi Nigel,

I am desperately sorry to see you leave but I saw this dark cloud coming over you several weeks ago in your blog posts and comments on other blogs. I also know that I managed to irritate you with some of the things I said at that time in relation to your “F in 13″ comments and for that I apologise if I inadvertently hurt your feelings. I hope you know that I am NOT the sort of person to do that deliberately.

Your sentiments are being echoed by many AJ students. That is part of the reason why I have been putting messages up all over the place about it, including my own blog and also why my colleague Linda made her impassioned recording. My latest comment on this is at Stephen Bray’s blog for those who may be interested to read it.

Thank you for your nice parting gestures at my blog, Nigel, and I certainly wish you all the best for the future. I know you have something cooking. You are knowledgeable and you will succeed in your own way. It doesn’t have to be via this training. Each of us must do what we feel is correct and in accordance with our own decisions. For you that decision is to leave. I respect that.

Best Wishes

Gary Simpson.

Hi Nigel,

I heard this from Jeff Dibble.

All I can say is: Good on you! :)

I don’t know you enough to tell you what’s wrong or right and I certainly been through a lot of scrapes to decide for myself that you gotta do what you gotta do. I do believe in the Law of Attraction and I wish you well on your way to riches in Internet Marketing

Everyone knows on some level you will have to break away and do your own thing to get rich, if this is what you feel has to be done, then I support you. Let me know what you need and I’ll do my best for you.

You have my email. Most people haven’t asked me so much but I’m putting it out there again and again till people listen. Do let me know. :) Have a wonderful life!

All the best!

Regards,

Erwin Chua

Hi, Nigel,

Thanks for your contribution to the class and for your great ebooks. It is my interesting point of view that people choose their feelings, which means, you can’t disappoint people. They choose to feel that way.

All the best to you and your endeavors,
Joan

Hey Rob,

Thanks and welcome to my blog, and yes indeed promises and dreams of making money before christmas was certainly very optimistic and have been shattered. Your other course sounds like one I’m also registered with but hardly visit other than once every fortnight as I know some of the methods listed anyway. And yes listing building is not for everyone, I, for one am one those who like you disagree with list building.

Well if Alex does take on the feedback, then it might be a disadvantage to other gurus lol. But then it might be useful.

Best wishes
Nigel

Hi Tara

Thanks for the kisses and hugs, much appreciated – hope all goes well for you

Good Luck and best wishes
Nigel

Hi Jeffrey

I think you might have been confused by the online chess game – I’ve mentioned it to others but I will reiterate again and that is: I’ll still be making money and be around in the Internet Marketing barring that I have focus on something else and I will be making money online (as I have done so for the past 5 years using eBay part time *uprising business has picked up again recently*) albeit a slightly different approach with a twist. Please feel free to drop me a comment, a message or email.

Best regards
Nigel

45 Nigel Yip 02.10.09 at 6:15 pm

Hi Gary,

Let’s just forget the matters and concentrate on moving forwards. You didn’t upset me in anyway – so no worries about that, I was away from blogging because I just couldn’t cope, stressed out and literally had enough of the repetitiveness. Now to clarify things, I’m quitting the training but will still be making money online albeit different methods, strategies etc…

Best wishes to you as well
Nigel

46 Nigel Yip 02.10.09 at 6:17 pm

Hi Erwin,

I like you motivated approach, keep pluggin’ at it, and yeah do keep in touch, the laws of attraction can be a very strange thing yet also be so magical in the right hands and minds. You too have a wonderful life as well.

All the best!
Nigel

Hi Joan,

Thanks for visiting my blog and leaving your supportive message. All the best to you too.

Hi Nigel how are you? well I finally made it to your blog,I must be the last student to do so, I am one of those newbie anyways I have to say it looks like you have made some friends from the class and I hope to be one of them as well and maybe you could stop bye if you want and I can add you to my blog roll so I guess I am really still at module two but moving forward slow hope to catch up some time still learning as I go forward. would like to know what other coaching class you have taken?or taking right now. would like to say in touch with you as well.
Thomas

49 Nigel Yip 02.11.09 at 4:09 am

Hi Thomas

Firstly a warm welcome to my blog, and of course you can be my friend too. I hope you are well and yeah the other coaching course I’m on, is the one that Dean recently promoted and that was ‘Internet Marketing – The Kick Start Course by the Laycock Publishing Duo – Sara Brown & Tony Shepherd – I met them back when I was doing eBay part time, studying full time, trying out various home business opportunities and just about to delve my feet into the Home Biz Opportunities Direct Mail Order. I’ve been following them for quite a few years but with other commitments, was unable to keep up and I was pursuing my education anyway.
But yeah, I’ve also enrolled on quite a few various internet marketing ideas such as Wealth Foundation and with Howie Schwartz. Still not sure what the latter guy is about but I guess I will sooner or later figure it out.

All the best
Nigel

Hi Nigel,

I’m sorry that you’ve left Alex’s course, you’ll be missed! I just heard that you left on the 11th (I’m a bit behind on keeping up with everyone, too busy working my butt off online!).

I’ve learned a lot from Alex, especially in the beginning, and I’ve learned so so much from you and some of the other students. I’m a little disappointed with a few things also, like a lot of the other students. I love what Susan said about it being “a motorbike for the favored”, because it’s the truth!

You’ll do great because you’re doing what you feel is right for you!

I’m happy to have you as a friend on Facebook too! Makes it easy to keep in touch.

I wish you the best,

Lori

51 Nigel Yip 03.13.09 at 7:39 am

Hi Lori

Thanks for adding me to Facebook, and yeah I’ve noticed you’ve been really actively, which is fantastic.

Best wishes to you
Nigel
