“But don’t I need advanced business or computer skills?”
You’ll be surprised. You’ll learn how thousands of people are every day turning their passion, skill, life experience or hobby into a fun and productive business – to either quit their day jobs, or create an additional revenue stream on the side.

David Wood is fast becoming one of the foremost voices in online marketing and lifestyle design, having built a rewarding hobby into a million-dollar online empire that allows him to work and play from anywhere in the world. He was recently voted into the Transformational
Leadership Council, along with such thought leaders as Stephen M.R. Covey, Jack Canfield, John Gray, and Marianne Williamson.
In 1997, while consulting to Fortune 100 companies in New York, David felt the call to resign as an actuary and follow his passion to
entertain and teach. Within a few short years he was attracting 95% of
his clients from the internet, publishing the largest online coaching
newsletter in the world, and celebrating reaching seven figures in
income - all supported by one employee he'd never met.
He wrote Get Paid For Who You Are to share the same techniques he has
now taught to thousands of people around the world, including students at
Columbia University. Born in Australia, David has a home base in San Francisco and spends time in Calgary, New York, and Sydney.

Thin and wiry, with a shock of red hair and a roguish grin, David Wood
didn't look like anyone's idea of a guru. But as we sat talking together
in my living room for the first time, I realized immediately he had
something important to share. David has figured out how to do what most
people only dream about doing their whole lives live an abundant life
while making a huge contribution, and having a blast every step of the way.
In my thirty-plus years of teaching the principles of success, I've seen
that too many people are unhappy in their careers. They travel to an
office every day, working 9-5 (for someone else), trading their time for
money, and often at something that doesn't light them up.
Reading Get Paid for Who You Are can change all that. This book opens
a door, one of realistic opportunity. If you have a passion, a hobby, a
product, a service, or even your own life experience, David shows you
how to reach the world with it, and to get paid for it. His system makes
all of this possible now! And the only person who can get in your way
is also the only person who can make this happen you!
This book is a call. A call to express. To give, influence, receive,
play. To engage.
Will you answer the call? Is now your time? If you've been waiting to
share what you truly care about with the world - and to fully receive
the gifts this life has to offer - your wait is over.
Everybody's talking about the "challenging economy." And they're right,
it is challenging-it's challenging us to play a bigger game. Are you
ready?Read on.

When a baby elephant is born in a circus, they tie its leg to a stake
with a strong chain. Over time, they gradually reduce the thickness of
the chain until a full-grown elephant is "held" by a flimsy piece of
rope. The elephant is tied to a stake because it believes it is. What do
you believe?
You could say a lifestyle of complete freedom, contribution and
abundance isn't possible for you, or you can test the strength of your rope.
With your permission, I'll show you how to create a lifestyle of
contribution and creativity, with financial and location freedom. Inside
this book you will learn the five-step process that I used to create
this lifestyle, impacting over 100,000 people and funding my travels and
adventures, through an automated helping-the-world business. You'll
learn the same process that is now helping thousands of people to ditch
their nine to five jobs and create the lifestyle they dream of - even if
they're non-technical or time-scarce.
I'll show you how to get paid for what you know and love.
"I'll show you.
how to get paid.
for who you are."
You Have so Much to Share
I Was Where You Are Too
If you are working 9 to 5 for someone else at something you’re not passionate about, or struggling to get more clients for your own business, then I can tell you I understand. I’ve been in both places not too long ago.
I was a consulting actuary for Fortune 500 companies based in New York. By all measures, I was a success. I had gone to school to learn a great profession, worked hard to get promoted, and had taken 8 years to qualify as an actuary (no small feat). I was making good money. I’d moved from Australia to my dream destination, New York City. My parents were proud. My friends thought I had it made.
But I couldn’t shake the feeling that this just wasn’t me!
After much soul-searching, I took six months off to pursue a life-long dream of playing guitar and singing in pubs. I dressed up in fun, silly costumes like a kilt and a long blond ABBA wig, and sang party songs like Blame It On The Boogie. My parents smiled bravely, and at times I worried I was being irresponsible, but hey – it was all temporary.
You know what? I never made it back to corporate life. I’d broken my old thought patterns and started coaching people to achieve their goals. Soon other coaches were asking me how to attract clients using the internet. I was now doing what I loved, but I was still working five days a week. So I turned my knowledge and passion into a CD product. Now I was helping people 24/7, without using my time!
I took many deep breaths the day I slowly wrote my resignation letter to the Institute of Actuaries of Australia. My mind was screaming “You’ve invested eight years of sweat, stress and tears in qualifying – you’re crazy to let that go!” But I was letting go of the old to create the new, so it felt right. I made my own choices. And that’s what I want for you. |
Your passion, hobby, skill or life experience is valuable -- literally.
Whether it's being married, or getting divorced. Whether having a child,
or losing someone dear to you -- it's valuable. Whether you like stamp
collecting, investing, riding horses, parenting, or catering. Maybe you
created a million dollar business, or failed at three startups. Perhaps
you simply found a way to stick to your diet, or handle an angry spouse
or upset child, or make pottery, or can help people find a fishing
guide, or any of a myriad of skills, interests, or abilities -- it's all
valuable.
If you already have a business, you'll be happy to know this process is
powerful for anyone with a product or service: professionals, small
business owners, chiropractors, dentists, florists, potters, inventors.
You can make more revenue and work less.
Now, I'm not promising you'll make internet millions. It took hard work
for me to reach $40,000 a month. I also won't promise you a "4-Hour Work
Week." The author of that book and I work many more hours than that,
although it's entirely by choice. While it is completely possible to
make a fortune and never work again by following the steps in this
book, it's also normal if you have some healthy skepticism. And, I know
not every one wants to aim that high.
So let's take a look at more down to earth goals that are easier to wrap
the mind around:
How would your life be enhanced if you made an extra $3,000 per month
while keeping your day job?
How would it feel to cut back to a job working only two or three days a
week because your "how to" CD or book is starting to sell really well?
What would it be worth to you to transition to doing something you
really care about and receive five testimonials a week from people you
have helped?
People ask me, "What is it that you do?" and the answer changes every
time. For many it doesn't fit into their paradigm of what they expect to
hear.
I work from my laptop wherever I am.
I create and sell information products in 49 countries using the internet.
I work from home as often as I like
I can take three months off work when I choose
I'm a speaker, a writer, a trainer.
I'm a traveler having fun with my friends.
I have the great satisfaction and fulfillment of helping people.
It's a life you can have. That's all I'm saying. Read on.
