How you can cash in on Other People's INGENUITY (OPI).

[Dien Rice]

Hi Gordon,

Wow - great topic!

You wrote...

And to my point, when you have a wide base of ideas to choose from, it makes it easier to see the INGENUITY and ask how one can use it in another area. For example, I used my Qual card from submarine service to create a Golf Card, for measuring progress. I used the instruments from Social Services, like IHP, IEP, (all plans of some sort) to create the Personal Program Plan, so one way to apply and use OPI, is to ask how could you use this on that, or the other.

You may not always come up with a way, but you might be able to borrow, twist and turn OPI, to your own profit.

That's the truth! People think they need to be a genius, come up with some ingenious idea...

Hogwash!

Perhaps all you need is to find an ingenious idea... and adapt it!

We have your examples above!

Harvey Brody, in his course (as you know), talks about creating... or ACQUIRING... a toll position...

And how can you acquire one? Will it cost a lot of money?

Not necessarily!

You've talked before about the concept (from Harvey Brody) of "buying a cow, and paying for it with its own milk"...

Speaking of Harvey Brody. And TOLL POSITIONS.

You also wrote about some REAL examples in your "Fly Low and Collect the Dough" report...

People's heads should be exploding now... If they're not, then they haven't understood it!

We're sitting on a lot of dynamite, Gordon!

Best wishes,

Dien

There are over 300 business ideas and plans in the Hidden Business Ideas "archive" that you can put into action...

Many of them are quite ingenious... (I didn't come up with the ingenuity, but I recognized it and wrote about them, like the examples above!) I want to share these with you, so you can use them to profit from too...

You can use the ideas as they are... Or they can be modified and combined to create new ideas...

And I found this insightful, and started wondering, HOW? One thing I will share with you today is, my somewhat eclectic surfing, watching sites...not much of Tik Tok or reels of teens dancing...but I visit all the sites that Dien's brother mentions in his newsletter; THOMAS'S INNOVATION WRAP.

All the latest in tech. And I also watch the Why Files, with AJ and Hecklefish, where he covers conspiracy, UFO, ancient history, fun stuff.

Of course there is lotterypost where I have been a member for over 11 years, and YouTube to look for the odd, different, unusual, etc.

I've had my fill of talking head MARKETERS and I can no longer scroll to read anyone's brilliant copy. If I have to scroll, it is a hard NO for me right there, and I sleep well not worrying about what Guru offer I missed out on, believe me, there will be another "opportunity of a lifetime, or once in a lifetime" come around tomorrow morning, check your email.

Thanks Dien, good stuff, even in your sales pitches, ha!
