Hey hey hey! It's a beautiful day in Toronto, and I WANT TO TALK TO YOU!

What's the biggest question that you want answered today?

Seriously.

What's on your mind? Is it a marketing problem? Food? Diet? Politics? Religion? Drugs? Dating advice? Video Games? World of Warcraft? Facebook stuff? Twitter? Lead Generation? Martial Arts? Philosophy? More Web Traffic? What's up?

What is the single biggest question that you want answered?

Here's the scoop. I feel like answering rapid fire questions. Fire away. No holds barred, anything goes. Simply post a question in the comment field below. I am going to compile them as they come in and create a post of nothing but Answers To Burning Questions! In fact, I'll do a live web broadcast via Ustream on Friday afternoon that we can watch live and record.

At least, that's the plan. If you don't have a burning question, make one up. It will get you a cool back link in Google at the very least. And maybe I'll plug your website on my show!

COME ON? What's on your mind?

Talk to me, I want to talk back….

So I'm back in Toronto.

I find myself 1/3 of the way into January already. Wow, take a little cruise and time gets away from you. Taking 17 hours to fly home instead of 4 sure doesn't help. I had to cross 6 time zones to fly from Miami to Toronto. Thanks US Airways!

I find myself with 104 real emails to deal with this morning that have been filtered and designated "ME". Plus I have the sale of one of my companies to oversee this week. Listen to me complain like a little kid, eh?

I'm selling off a company in order to start a new one. I plan to lay out a lot of the steps, plans, mindmaps, and tools that I will be using and letting you follow along as I build it. This one is what I call a "5-year" business. I plan to build it out for 60 months and then sell it. Should be fun!

As DidYouSmellThat.com officially turns 4 this week (as in 4 months old), I thought I'd share with you some of the top posts that you might have missed.

1. 7 Sexy Blogs That I Read Everyday

Take a sneak peak over my shoulder at some of my favorite RSS feeds from some brilliant bloggers.

2. How Do I Get Cheap Traffic To My Website?

Why do 80% of the people who ask for help suddenly quit? What is the strange force that causes good people to fail?

3. Are You Desperately Searching For A Niche To Market In?

I give you 2 excellent marketing niches, with tremendous growth potential. Learning to raise organic tomatoes is a $10K/mo niche to the right marketer!

4. Even More Top Articles!

As you did deeper, you find more gold…here is even more of it!

As September winds down, I hope you find what you are looking for.

Notice that when you visit these posts, I have a couple of new ads on the right sidebar. If you think you might qualify for your ads to appear on my blog, visit our Advertising Section.

I mentioned the great Ed Dale as one of the authors of the 7 Sexy Blogs I Routinely Read.

He gives incredible value. That's one of the reasons why millions of pieces of paper with a picture of a dead president have flowed his way.

He turned me onto one of the most incredible websites I have ever seen. Kiva.org

Imagine completely changing an entire family's life with $25. Imagine the tremendous feeling of being a global banker, lending money to third world countries, to ordinary people with an entrepreneurial dream. Imagine doing that important work with what we spend on a large 2 topping pizza and a six pack.

Kiva is not just mind boggling…it's MIND BLASTING!

Falia and I have 10 kids with World Vision that we sponsor. But Kiva is all about building a fresh crop of entrepreneurs in countries that desperately need them!

I plan to get involved…want to play with me? Want to change some lives? Let's put our collective minds together. How can we have fun with this? How can we make a difference? What are your thoughts? Leave me a comment below or post in the discussion forum.

Have you taken a summer holiday? Have you been at the beach working on your tan or at the cottage?

Even if you have been chained to a cubicle at Sukalux Industries with no window and a single florescent bulb, you still might have missed some of the top posts at DidYouSmellThat.com over the past month!

Do One Thing And Do It Very Well
I was asked on a recent episode of Dave TV what the secret to riches was….

Free John Chow!
Yesterday I mentioned that the world's most evil blogger John Chow was the 2nd coolest man in Vancouver according to Google. Well, Google doesn't think so, in fact they might actually hate John Chow!

The Death of Television
I just don't understand the commercial TV business model anymore. My Gen Y friends tell me it's just for old folks now. I'm starting to believe them!

Please Show Me How To Make Money Online!
I got a bizarre email yesterday. It was from a 14 year old high school student. He didn't include a photo, but I would imagine him with the ever popular slacker hair cut, pants crotch down to his knees, backwards baseball cap and over-sized basketball jersey.

There you go…4 ultra-groovy posts for you to dig…or to Digg! Your assignment? Read all 4 and leave a comment on each one. Then treat yourself to your favorite adult beverage afterwards!

How was your day yesterday?

My private mentoring clients are often asking me to document my day as a working example to model. As my concept of "Lifestyle Architecture" has evolved over the years, I have given up working just for works sake. Yes, it was a little difficult learning to fill my day instead of sitting at a desk or computer and pretending to be busy. You are literally forced to challenge yourself to be an explorer of the world around you.

8 am. Woke up with the sun, no alarm clock. Shower, shave, breakfast while watching Daily Show on Tivo. Took coffee to my home office.

9 am - 10 am: Writing. Blog posts, 7 mentoring emails, post projects on Elance, assign tasks to outsourcers for week.

10 am -10:30 am - weekly staff meeting via Skype

10:30 - noon: went to club for weekly golf lesson with Falia, we both hit bucket of balls at driving range too

noon - 1pm : lunch

1 - 1:30 pm : Power Nap in Magic Chair (I have to do a post on this in the future. I did some research a few years ago on how to compress 4 hours of sleep into 30 minutes using a massage chair, beta sound wave light and sound machine, and subliminal cd)

1:30 - 2:30: Reading. Am currently reading "Fierce Invalids Home From Hot Climates" by Tom Robbins

2:30: go to gym

3 - 4:00 pm - strength & conditioning training with personal trainer

4 - 7pm: shower, dinner, relaxing with Falia

7 - 11 pm : went downtown, we saw the Russell Peters show at the Air Canada Center - OMG, laughed so hard my sternoclidomastoid muscles ached in my neck! He's a stellar Indian-Canadian comedian, his homecoming last night was packed, over 20,000 people…amazing.

That was my day. If you want some help designing your life, may I suggest my 1on1 mentoring program?

If you haven't seen Russell Peters before, here's a taste — enjoy!

When I was a kid, I got my very first chain letter. It was from a man named Edward L. Green. It was a very official looking document outlining the legal loophole that he discovered in the mail system. Bob C. from Oklahoma had followed this loophole and had made over $6000 dollars!

All I had to do was send a $5 bill to 5 people and order the special report that each one had. Then I was to make 100 copies of the package and mail them out. Soon I would be getting oodles of money in the mail every single day!

This was nearly 30 years ago. I cleaned out my piggy bank, mailed off the money, used the "photostat" machine at my dad's office to make copies, mailed them out (a stamp was ten cents back then) , and sat eagerly awaiting my fortune.

I spent $50 bucks. I got zero back. My first marketing business (if you can call it that) was a dismal failure!

But the good news is I didn't give up. And today I am testing my own blogging version of the classic Edward L. Green system.
