“Read the Transcript From Jason Potash’s Amazing In Search Of Heroes Interview–If you had three wishes for your life, the world, that would easily come true, what would they be?” by Ralph Zuranski
Ralph Zuranski: If you had three wishes for your life, the world, that would easily come true, what would they be?
Jason Potash: I would say, we can go in left field here and have these high high in the sky dreams which will never come true, like we are all going to love each other and be friendly to one another and stamp out anger and violence and everything else.
We all know that unfortunately, that day will never come. I just think that basically, if everybody had a positive attitude, if everybody was connected and had faith and really believed in, and just being happy with what they’ve been given in life.
So many people that I deal with as well are just so angry and felt they have they have been given a raw deal, and “woe is me, and my life sucks, and this is terrible what I’m dealing with, and nobody deals with my problems. I’m making bad money and my kids are totally out of control.”
You just really have to give thanks, and I think so many people do not really count their blessings. I’m not just talking from a spiritual/religious standpoint. I’m talking about looking around saying, “You know what, I’ve got a roof over my head and food on the table. I’m making money. I may not have a car but I have enough to take the bus to work. I’m not walking five miles to get to work every day in snow and so forth.”
We all heard the stories about our parents who say they walked to school back and forth in five feet of snow. My dad had these stories and my grandfather had these stories as well. There is probably one point in my life where I walked to school up the hill both ways, as they say, when I was a young lad.
But other than that, I’ve been blessed with so many things. And I think so many people let that negativity just totally, it’s like a cancer that eats you from the inside out. Obviously, as we know, being positive, being motivated and having goals and always trying to lift up above your current situation and circumstances, that’s going to help you to rise up and conquer your goals.
I think if everybody had that attitude of wanting to work together, an attitude of cooperation, an attitude of giving before receiving, an attitude of being positive, an attitude of thankfulness and forgiveness and not just letting it fester inside that you have it so bad and things are terrible.
I know it’s hard to do that when you are dealing with $10,000 in credit card charges and everything else because I’ve been there, and it’s hard to believe that gospel when you are dealing with all the crap that is happening in your life.
But I think if people had that attitude, it would definitely change things. I think what is also missing with many people is just having that rock solid foundation. If it’s being grounded with faith, a higher power, or just being grounded with morals and values, having a purpose in life.
Again, just having an attitude of giving and being thankful, I think that can become something that can have a huge impact on an individual’s life. If everybody in society would follow those same principles in life, I think you would have a huge impact in society as we know it.
Frequently Asked Questions About Ezine Announcer
Q: Can EzineAnnouncer also help me to promote my ebook or affiliate program?
Yes it can. Have you ever considered starting an ezine? It provides a great way to develop a “warm” prospect list to market your ebooks or affiliate programs. EzineAnnouncer includes an extensive database of ezine publishers and free ad sources. You can use these resources to promote your ebooks and associate programs at no cost! Also, why not write a few small articles about your area of expertise? It’s a great way to subtlety promote your product and use EzineAnnouncer to blast out your articles to hundreds of resources!
Q: Does EzineAnnouncer work like Search Engine or Classified Ad submission software?
Yes and no. Submitting your website or classified ad usually involves completing a form with two to four fields (URL, e-mail, name, etc.). Therefore it’s very easy to 100% automate this submission process.
Ezine submission works differently. Ezine directories require a larger variety of information (20, 30, or 40 fields). And unfortunately, many of the forms that you are required to complete contain drop-down list boxes — you must physically choose an option by clicking on your mouse.
On average, EzineAnnouncer completes 80% of forms for you automatically. In most cases, you may have to click on a selection or two, and press the “submit” button. This usually takes 10 seconds per submission. Compare this to 10-15 minutes if you were to type in each form manually.
Q: Is EzineAnnouncer easy to use?
EzineAnnouncer was designed using a simple “spreadsheet” type interface. Most computer users have used a spreadsheet program before (such as Microsoft Excel). Therefore this style of interface is very familiar to them.
90% of the functions that you will most often use, can be accessed by a simple left-click on your mouse. That’s really all there is to it. EzineAnnouncer will allow you to begin promoting your ezine the minute it’s installed. However, for more advanced functions, it will take you a few days to become more familiar with the software.
Q: Can I use EzineAnnouncer to send e-mail messages?
Yes you can. With EzineAnnouncer you can send personalized e-mail messages (using built in mail merge function) to other ezine publishers, contacts, or customers with a single click. You can also send out multiple e-mails at the same time when submitting your ezine ads or using announcement lists to promote your ezine.
EzineAnnouncer uses your default e-mail software to send messages and is not designed to replace your e-mail software (Outlook, Eudora, Pegasus, etc.).
Q: Will I become better organized using EzineAnnouncer?
With the abundance of resources included with EzineAnnouncer, it would be literally impossible to organize and track all this information any other way.
All the 900+ resources within EzineAnnouncer are categorized for rapid searching. You can sort using: Ezine directories, Ezine announcement lists, Article directories, Free ad sources, Trade ad sources. And you can freely delete, add, or modify any resources found under these categories at anytime.

It’s up to you — you can track as little or as much information as you require.
But what use is all that information if it doesn’t help you work smarter? EzineAnnouncer also includes “trigger” capabilities that will remind you to perform certain functions.
For example, some ezines will require you to resubmit your free ad every month — EzineAnnouncer reminds you automatically and let’s you resubmit your ad with ease — it’s a no-brainer!
