“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them”
– Albert Einstein
…or, wherever you are in life at the moment, your best thinking got you there.
Why the quote? Well kind of sums up the message of the main speaker at the afternoon session of the Crocodile Marketing conference, Pat Mesiti.
Now, like many people who teach about success and prosperity, Pat has attracted his fair share of controversy, critics and detractors.
However, I’ve now seen Pat speak twice and he’s someone well worth listening to, in my opinion.
His message isn’t new. The idea that how we think determines the results we get in life is almost conventional wisdom in the world of personal development.
But Pat has a unique and very dynamic way of getting his point across.
And his key points…
…if you’re not where you want to be you need to change your thinking…
…successful people think differently…
…you can learn from successful people!
Hey, you may well have heard this sort of thing before.
Perhaps many times (I certainly have!).
So, how’s that working out?
I know that for me it was a useful reminder.
Now, I confess that I left halfway through the afternoon to catch my flight home and missed the end of Pat’s presentation.
That meant I also missed the wrap up from Pete and David McMahon…
…which presumably covered their plans going forward after this last ever Crocodile Marketing Inner Sanctum conference.
From what I gleaned over the 2 days, basically Pete is going back to what he was doing before Crocodile Marketing and will be relaunching his “Emotional Ad Writing And Marketing Letter”.
David will continue to run Crocodile Marketing as a company offering training and other services to business owners (first program will be “Online Sales And Social Media Mastery”).
All in all a worthwhile trip for me. Great to catch up with old mates and met a lot of new friends too…
…as well as picking up a few new tips and insights. Jennie Armato’s talk on social media was particularly useful for me.
So farewell to the old “Crocodile Marketing”…it was good to know you!
