Happy Thanksgiving 2012

By | November 21, 2012

Happy Thanksgiving! I realize that only about half of Eric’s Tips readers are in the USA, but gratitude transcends all borders.

First, I want everyone reading this to know that I’m thankful for YOU. Without you, Eric’s Tips wouldn’t exist.

Here’s a small free gift as a token of my appreciation. It’s a 49-page ebook that I paid to have ghostwritten awhile back, but I never got around to launching it.

I literally paid $600 for it, and it’s been sitting on my hard drive ever since. It’s never been released until today.

So I’m going to let you download it for free WITH Master Resale Rights. I even left it white-label (didn’t put my name on it), so you can sell it or add it as a bonus to any product.

Next, here is the 5th annual Eric’s Tips Thanksgiving contest!

Wow, this is the 5th year we’ve done this!

It’s a good thing to express your gratitude for what you’re thankful for. In fact, it’s been shown to have health benefits.

So once again, we are going to do a group exercise to demonstrate our thankfulness.

All you have to do is post a comment below saying something you’re thankful for. It could be one word, or it could be much more… it’s up to you. If you need some inspiration, feel free to check out the comments from the past four years: 2011 | 2010 | 2009 | 2008

Here is something I’m thankful for…

frozen custard
(My wife, 5 kids, 2 cousins, mother-in-law, and 24 flavors of frozen custard. This was a fun day on one of our road trips, and was a special time because it was the last day we saw my wife’s grandfather before he died.)

Please post a comment below and let us know what you’re thankful for 🙂

Have a great day and a happy Thanksgiving!

    I am thankful to the “light” that openned my mind and eyes to what was there beyong the very far horizontal line in the sea and that because of this enlightment (that I did not know was God until later since I was told in school there was no God)I left my sad drowning country and brought my kids to a new future. I am thankful to God that I know now is guiding me now to take care of them as I am close to them at home. Thanks to Eric I am now knowing the steps to get there. Thankful because not knowing what internet was 4 years back I can say now I will give my children the time they need to have a healthy and open bright future Thankful because I know I will get there and help everyone in need in my homeland Cuba including my family that is suffering from misery and mind blindness. I am thankful that I wake up everyday and I know what I am here for and the path I will follow. Thankful to life and all good souls around the world. Thankful

    I’m thankful for eyes to see the beauty of the universe; ears to hear music and the voices of loved ones; a nose to smell the sweetness of flowers and dinner cooking; and a mouth to eat the bounty of the earth and tell everyone just what I think of them. 🙂

    You became to me during this course a secret supportive friend- therapeutic! (and you don‘t even know it!)
    I am in a very “low” part of my life and I’ve got to look forward to listening to your lessons as one of the very few positive parts of my every day
    Thank you for being there and Happy Thanksgiving to your wonderful whole family (without seeing you pictures I would not remember that happy families and good times still exist)
    PS-…and I know, my email is still “@rogers”…

    I remember a story from the book, “The Secret”. It was about a man who picked up a rock along the side of the road while walking and pondering his problems in life. He decided to use the rock to remind himself to be grateful for all of the good things that he had in his life. Later, someone saw his rock, and asked him why he carried it. He told him why, and the rock was dubbed the “Gratitude Rock”. I now have my own “Gratitude Rock”, and among other things that I am grateful for, I am grateful for you, Eric, and this community of people all trying to find a way to get ahead and learn from one another. Happy Thanksgiving!

    Still having a roof over my head, and my wife still believes I can make a success on the internet.
    Thanks for all your help and I’m sure the Listbuilding book you gave us will be a great help.

    I am thankful that God saved me from myself. When I was at my darkest hour God comforted me and brought me closer to my brothers who helped me to step out of the darkness and into God’s light. I was saved by Jesus Christ that day and my life will never be the same.

    I have been blessed ever since and have had many new opportunities opened to me because of my relationship with the Lord.

    I am thankful for my loving wife who never gave up on me, my In-Laws who saw through my pain, my church and wonderful people that I have met online, just like you.

    Eric, thank you for being who you are.

    I am thankful for the hope God has given me! After over 5 years of hit and miss business opportunities, selling on eBay, loosing over 3 grand, I still have hope in a business of my own, I haven’t gone mad, I still don’t get high, and because my reasons are not selfish ones. For some reason, I trust you Eric. To you and your family…Have a Blessed Thanksgiving!!!

    As part of the group of your followers that has already celebrated thanksgiving I have a bit of a head start 8=)

    I am thankful to God for my Saviour, my family and the opportunities I have every day to be part of this wonderful life.

    Having mentors and guides like yourself who have been there, done that and share the knowledge is also something I’m thankful for. And that includes you Eric!

    I am thankful for my God who watches over me in all that I do and I know that he watches out for all of mankind at all times.
    There is talk now that there is proof that Christ was a figment if the Roman empires imagination to control the people as we have those trying to control us now.
    For me Jesus was and is the son of God and member of the triumvirate and I give thanks that we have the freedom to believe what we want to as, everyone does, ONLY some can’t express it for fear of retribution.
    Do this for your own benefit: PRAY to your God for what you want or need! Then sit still and listen for an answer as you would if you had asked your Grand Mother, You will hear the answer in your mind. But only if you take the time to wait for the answer.
    Have a very happy Thanksgiving, Eat until you can eat no more, and give thanks every day.
    Love Art

    Hey Eric:

    I know how important family is to you. Thanksgiving is even more special when you have someone to share it with.

    We are all blessed in our own way and have much to be grateful for each and every day.

    I am thankful for the manifold blessings of a loving wife, sons, a house that is paid for, enough food to keep us filled, enough money to pay our bills, and the ability to get up every day to help others, learn new skills. I am thankful to my Lord, who daily gives me life.
