What a Week We Had in Vanuatu Working

Yes friends , our new career meant that both my lovely wife Sandra and I were required to fly to Vanuatu last week and tend to some internet marketing duties that just had to be done. We tried to get out of having to go yet our coach and mentor insisted , we make sure we were there when he arrived .

I have that much respect for Sean and Cherie Rasmussen that there was no way I was about to let them down and watch them struggle with the duties at hand it just would not have been fair. So while I was weighing up that hard decision in my intelligent brain, Sandra had already made all the bookings for flights and accommodation and invited another internet marketing friend Sharon de Bryun to come along and help .

So as I was already out voted and all the arrangements were made, I realised there was no way out of this, so just decided I would have to go to Vanuatu working.
The first thing Sean had us do was to sit down and plan what needed to be done, who was going to do what and how we should go about it all.

This is Scotty , Sharon & Sean sitting around in the Meridean Resort lounge in Vanuatu laying out the duties at hand for us all. Some of the things he wanted me to do were a little unfamiliar for an ex Plumbing contractor and I was not used to this work.
Jobs To Do List At Vanuatu

• Visit the bar at the pool regularly and drink lots often.
• Make sure the Pizza was always fresh and on time
• Always finish the days work with a huge Island coctail
• Go swimming regularly so as not to overheat and save going to the toilet
• Take turns holding down the bananna lounges by lying on them
  
• Tweeting business messages and then re-tweeting them #followfriday
  
• Digging articles and stories to support the business associates
• Plan the next days events before retiring while we were still sober.
• last and not least. Eat as much tropical fruit and sea-food as possible

OMG !!
Do we have to do all that while were here I said to Sean, his answer was .....No not while your here that is only what we will do the first 2 days. After that I have a convention planned for us all down on the main beach where we will go over the work we have done , compare notes, drink some more, go sailing on the catamaran. Oh and bring your computers down to the beach as well , we have some more tweeting,digging ,shouting and emails to complete, he said.
The girls tried to escape and go shopping in the village, that's when our trusty guard and tracker caught them sneaking away and bought them back immediately. So Sean gave them extra duties that day, Sandra and Sharon were told to go swimming for an hour and then paddle the surf ski's for another hour as punishment.

We worked hard on all our projects and managed to finish all the required work inside the time allocated, because we were all so hard working Sean & Cherie took us into the village the last night with their two lovely boys and we were shouted a magnifficent meal at an outdoor restaurant on the harbor water front.

You see my friends most folks only dream of a job like this, only 2 yrs ago so did Sandra and I, until we met Sean & Cherie Rasmussen who have taken us under their wing and taught us that Dreams do come true if you want them too. We are still only apprentices in the internet marketing world and still have so much to learn, oh and some more work to do like the Week We Had in Vanuatu Working our little bums off with the internet marketing business.

Both Sandra and I are well on our way to becoming financially free and never having to work physically again in our lives, that has always been our Dream and how good it feels to see it unfolding as a result of lots and lots of hrs and commitment building our internet marketing business. I am in no way boasting here, yet I do hope that those who are looking towards the internet marketing as a way of replacing their income , do so seriously as any one can build a successful business online.

Well thank you all for showing interest in the life and chapters of Allen Sentance, as I have so many more chapters to complete and bring to you all. They will be things I have experienced and achieved through commitment and working hard , and as I leave you all now remember the Week We Had in Vanuatu Working can be any one.

Hey.........Life Is Good........

Easter With Family and Grandchildren

Hello to all the folks who follow my blog, as you may have noticed by now I am a very family conscious person. Easter With Family and Grandchildren is always a special time for my wife Sandra and I , it is one of the times in the year we usually get together. For me personally I like to sit back and watch the young grand kid's having fun and some times even fighting with each other as kids do, you can observe all the different personalities they each have or are developing. Do you have special memories of easter time with your family as you were growing up, for our family as I grew up it always meant camping & fishing some where in the bushland or a special spot on the river.

We were taught as children at sunday school exactly what easter really was for , and we have always honored that tradition. As a working man my father had very little time off to do anything more than take us into the bush for the day catching rabbits to eat and feed the family. So easter was one of the times we had 3 full days for the easter break and so we would take full advantage of the time to make it special and quality time as a family.

I was the eldest of six children and we at the time could not afford expensive trips or holidays, and that never ever worried me, as my childhood is full of wonderful memories of the times we all spent as a family usually in the bush around nature either catching fish or rabbits which for a young boy growing up was an adventure and always exciting. No wonder today at 58 I still go fishing and love to camp in the bush, it is without a doubt the thing I love most , and I am at peace when I am with my best mate NATURE.

In the photo above you can see an adult playing in the shallows with his 4 children, he is my 33 yr old son who is a Sgt in the army at Darwin Australia, and the 4 children are his , 2 lovely little girls Chandelle & Kate . He also has the twin boys who are 5 there my future fishing mates, so I am teaching them how to fish and we go to the river often. That photo basicly is a replica or indication of me growing up, I would spend the time with the 4 children I had, camped out some where enjoying nature. So that photo shows how my son Fred has it instilled in him what I used to do with him and what my dad did with me, that to me is special.

The river you see there is 1km from my house where Sandra & I currently live, in a small Village called Adelaide River and you guessed it , this is in fact the Adelaide River also. It is located 100km south of Darwin on the stuart hwy and has about 200 residents. A beautiful picturesque quite little village, in the middle of NATURE with all the modern day services and a great place to go fishing, camping,swiming or even pig hunting if you like.

Now you know why I , the Fisherman as all my friends know me lives where he lives & until the day you pay me a visit so I can have the pleasure of showing you around my back yard, you just will never know what you are missing. We are also blessed to have our baby , Donald who is 26 and lives in Darwin with his wife Leslie and their 2 children, Andrew 5 and little girl Calin 1. I want to at this stage put another photo of some out doors on the river with us fishing.

Here my good friends is the terrible
twins Mitchell & Briley , they had a
ball this day and they caught more
fish than Poppy. Now I have been told
by on good authority that there is most
likely going to be an invasion on our
place with 6 grandchildren coming
friday and saturday. I am prepared
and will take them all down to the river, so we can have some fun together as
the mothers catch up on the gossip.

Well while you all think of the great memories you had as a child at easter time when you ate that much chocolate you were sick, and wished easter was over I will do a quick head count of who we expect as family to visit us. My son Fred & wife Kim and their 4 children, my other son Don & wife lesley with their 2 children. That is a grand total of 10 visiting family members plus myself and my darling wife Sandra, so our Easter With Family and Grandchildren is going to be a grand and traditional easter. May you all have a wonderful easter of you own and with who you love.

Hey.....life is good....... try some this easter, until my next post take care.

Without Struggle You Will Not Evolve

Fisherman welcomes you all once again to yet another inspirational person and wants to share with you all a message he recieved to-day from this close friend in Kenya. The man I am speaking of is to the right here, he is Jared Akama Ondieki. What he has in common with the other two on the left is they are of all the same background , the two on the left are in fact already very great and respected leaders.

What I want to point out to you all here is that they and Jared all started out with a VISION ..... Jared also has a vision and is only 30 yrs old. He wants to lead his people in Kenya to true freedom and peace, and intends to achieve this goal in the near future. At the moment he is working to save starving & orphaned Children.
This Is His Message Today

Subject: Dear Member
20-march-2009
Dear Friends,

Where did the week go!
It's Friday!
I hope and trust that the week was great as I wish you a great weekend ahead.

As I went on with my daily work this week,I thought about you and wondered what you were doing at the time and the following story came to my mind,read this:-

A man was confined to a bed for months.On his windowsill,there was a cocoon going through the motions as nature took its course,the butterfly inside struggled to emerge.But it was a long,painful and hard battle.
As hours passed,the struggling insect made no progress.
And at this Point,the man felt sorry for the poor insect and decided to help.He took a pair of scissors and snipped the opening of the cocoon larger.The butterfly crawled out,but that is all it ever did-Crawl.

The Pressure of the struggle was meant to strengthen it's wings and give them life.However the cleverness and mercy this human batched the birth.It was a stunted abortion!

* So friends remember....Without Struggle You Will Not Evolve.

Wonderful people,it is my hope that all this Economic,social and Political Problems we are facing today are meant to make us stronger and emerge Victor and never to crawl in issues of life,I am sure after all this we will emerge United and stay close to each other always as we are already doing.

Let Peace,Interdependence and Love be the outcome of our struggle for we shall have come out strong and full of life.

You are all my brothers and Sisters and I will always stay close to you in spirit.Kindly lets invite more people to join us as we work together towards our common goals for the people and the children.

Thanks,

Sincerely,

Jared Akama Ondieki.
--------------------
I am very proud and honored to have him as my now personal friend, and we have combined our efforts from this point on to help and save as many of the underprivilaged, starving & orphaned children as we can. I have already set up a friendship program for the orphaned children already in jareds care at the orphanage.
From here we will be working towards raising the funds to set Jared and the orphanages school up with a computer ,printer and associated equiptment to help in the education and co-ordination of all future programs we intend to implement.

My New Online Friends Help Fisherman

The Fisherman as you all probably know by now is in fact me Allen Sentance, and to-day I want to honour the good friends I have made since joining the internet world as they are the ones who have delivered me through the barriers and challenges to a place now where the world has become what ever I want it to be.

Yes all my life I have worked like a demon and have always been proud of just how good a worker I am and my life has overall been quite good, not as good as I would have liked yet I have learned to be grateful for what you have as there is always some one who would love to trade places with you , no matter how bad you think your life is.

I have learned also and believe that if you can manage to count all your true friends on your fingers of one hand at the end of your life, then you can consider yourself very fortunate. You see most people throughout their life aquire what they think are friends yet when the chips are down and they turn to them, they discover these so-called friends were in fact only aquaintences.

Well for me over the last 18 months I have truly been on a roller coaster believe me, my life hit the wall and not only was I struggling with life and what it was all about, I discovered the difference between true friends & aquaintences. I then realised I needed change in my life, So like many others to-day I turned to the internet with the hope of developing an income that would replace my current one.

I discovered it was not that easy and infact it was hopeless and was never going to happen......UNTIL.. the day I came across a man by the name of Sean Rasmussen, that was the beginning of Fishermans new life without a doubt. This man has a method of internet marketing that very few have, he explained to me that if I was good at working hard and applied it to his methods , then I could replace my current income sooner than I realised.

The rest is a story for another day as it is a beautiful story of the fisherman being re-born. By building this successful internet business I have to-day I was exposed to meeting thousands of people, through setting up of social networks & joining online classes to learn the computer and apply Seans techniques. At this point I want to share with you all a link to an internet book which Sean wrote and gave to me, it was the basics to the internet I began with...Thank you Sean...
You get it here.... Year Of The Affiliate by Sean Rasmussen ...

Now I also started to meet hundreds of like minded people and began sharing information and developing friend ships, not just where I live and the majority of them come from other countries all around the globe. I am also now involved with a very close knit group of internet marketers , who are my personal friends and business associates, who to-date look like being friends for life.

The Fisherman would without hesitation state that he now has more genuine friends who would stand by him through thick and thin, then he has managed to aquire from his previous 40 yrs of life, sad in a way yet true. I highly recommend the internet to anyone... just get with the proper people and develop the skills before expecting to generate big incomes, in fact if there is any one message I could give you to save the heartache of dissapointment and loss of money is this..... Never Get Involved With Any Program That Promises To generate Quick or Instant Income.....As I can assure you from experience , It generates instant income for them only...

I am very passionate about the possibilities on the internet now and Fisherman has so many great friends from it that he intends to pass on the teaching and integrity that was given to him. He still has a long way to go himself and is currently still under the full time training and guidance of his now mentor & life long friend Mr. Sean Rasmussen.

The Birth Of a Child and Love Of a Mother

Hello and how are all of my great friends ?
Fisherman wants to welcome you here with him.

To-day I want to talk about some beautiful things that have happened to me since joining the world of internet just 12 months ago. You may have read some of my very first blog posts that are now archived & I explained there how I struggled to learn the computer. Well I am glad to say that through a few beautiful friends efforts and my commitment I am better now then I was back then , and mind you I have in no way finished learning. What I have done though is managed to uncover the true power of the internet through affiliate marketing and am now in fullon mode building an internet business under the direct coaching and supervision of one of Australia's outstanding and successful internet coaching teams.. http://www.smartonlineprofitsystems.com.au/SeanRasmussen

Well I would say that was my first beautiful thing that happened to me in the last 12 months.

Moving on I must say there have been numerous events that have happened for me and my lovely wife Sandra for which I will be forever grateful, I will only touch on a few of the most signifficant ones here. I then was fortunate enough to enter into a group of internet marketers that were hand picked from Australia and England by none other than one of Australia's most successful internet marketers Mr. Sean Rasmussen and his beautiful wife Cherie. We are now personal friends of theirs as well as the other 22 students and their families from all over , more about this great and influential group another day and another post in the near future.

I have become intensely involved on the internet also with social natworking and have set up my own personal social networking site where people can join and mix with other like minded and positive thinking folks. This site has been a godsend for me and at first I had no idea what I was doing, now our members are nearing 100 and they have all become personal friends of mine through regular contact on this site.

Feel free to join me here on this site as you too can meet so many wonderful people from around the world ... http://www.lifeisgoodsocialnetwork.ning.com

A lot of people who now know me on a personal basis, know just how passionate I am about Children, good friends & nature. Well I have saved this little treat for you all until the end it is special to my heart and the person it is about.
About 9 months ago , I became good friends with a lovely young woman on the internet at this forum http://www.universalwealthcreation.com/forum/
And once again feel free to check this forum out it is full of wonderful people.

This young womans name is Viki and on the forum they know her as goodthingscome
now I want to let you know she has had to do the IVF program to have children and for an eternity was broken hearted on many occasions with failure after failure to become pregnant. Now with a never say die attitude a lot of practice and persistance, she was rewarded with her first child a little son she named Andrew.
Can you imagine how excited Viki & Shane were, I want to now share with you a poem that Viki had written prior to knowing she was getting little Andrew. This is the power of manifestation at it's best which Viki , Shane & I all believe in
OUR CHILD
By Vittoria McDonald

Our child
by: Vittoria McDonald a dear friend of Fisherman.

To my special little child, The day has finally come. When
you ask those wonderful questions Of how you became our son.
You see your story is quite different, But very much the
same. It happened the way most things do, Born from love
heartache and pain. Unable to have you the way others do, We
tried and tried and found our way. It cost lots of money
sweat and tears We cried and cried for what felt like years.
But our day of mourning has finally past. Celebrations are
here, our day at last. So here's to you our pride and joy,
And to the world of IVF who gave us our boy.

This is Andrew, he is a little champion and thank you Viki & Shane for a job well done. Oh !! now wait this is the most exciting part, I spoke with Viki yesterday and she has informed me success has come yet once again. Andrew is going to get a little brother in 4 weeks time....HOW COOL IS THAT... Below is an ultrasound of the soon to be born little brother for Andrew...taken at 33wks.. Just love it !!!


Well my friends these are just some beautiful things I am sharing and I would love to do a follow up with Viki once the big event has passed. Thank you all for reading my post it is special to me and if you have enjoyed it share it with others and show appreciation with a digg.

Hey.....life is good..... and gratitude & belief will deliver all

During this horror of the Victorian Fires

We are all aware by now of the devastating bushfires in Victoria Australia, so many have been effected and I came accross an anonymos email that I would like to share.

Hello everyone, During this horror of the Victorian Fires, I'm just wondering if everyone can include call centre agents/telephone operators in their prayers, please? During my shift today, every agent handled calls from distraught people searching desperately for loved ones, friends and employees. Some callers had already lost folk and were now frantically looking for others. For many callers, we were the only number that would answer. Our training doesn't cover how to handle grief stricken people, many sobbing, and our agents were affected deeply by stories they heard first-hand. Naturally, the emergency services of police, ambulance, fire brigades, hospitals, OOO, SES and Red Cross hot-lines were totally overwhelmed with callers and many people had been trying for hours to ring but had been unable to get through. They then turned to us, at 1234, as they knew they would be answered by a human who they could talk to and hopefully get some answers from. One agent received a call from a woman saying she was in a house surrounded by fire, with no way out and what should she do? Whilst the agent was talking with her, the line went dead. That agent will forever be wondering what happened to that poor woman, as we all will. I took a call from a woman who's daughter, who lived at Kinglake, had sent her a text message, late yesterday, saying, "The house is going" followed shortly by another that simply said, "Pray for me". She had been unable to contact her daughter, or heard from her, since. I had another call from a young man, who was holidaying in NSW but lived at Maryville, and was trying to be brave and not sound too concerned that he was unable to raise anyone at home or his boss. He kept trying to convince himself that his boss would answer his mobile phone later as the boss never went anywhere without his phone. He just couldn't accept that, maybe, some of those he was calling would never answer the phone again. He wouldn't take any number to call but, in the end, he let me sms some hotline numbers through to his mobile, which he could ring later, when he was more able to cope with the reality of the situation. We were being asked for directions from people trying to get away from the area, but were being confronted by blocked roads and wanting to know which road to take to get around it. We had no idea which roads were blocked, or even where the fires were actually burning, so could ony hope and pray we were sending them on a safe path and not straight at one of the fire zones. I had a young girl, who decided she had to go home to Kinglake, just to make sure her family and everything were alright. I gave her the directions and tried to convince her to stay in Melbourne, but she was determined she had to see for herself. I can only hope she was turned around at a roadblock and never entered the danger zone. We had calls from people, frantically trying to access water from their tanks but were unable to, as the powerlines had gone and their pumps wouldn't work. So many are so unprepared. We handled calls like these all day, knowing those coming on to replace us, would be confronted by the same, for their entire shift and most of us have to go back tomorrow to cope with it again. Many of our agents are young and, therefore, have very few life skills learnt from experience so have absolutely no idea how to cope with grief/distress, especially others'. I guess, I'm a little more prepared than most, for this type of situation as I completed the Lifeline Telephone Counsellors Course in 2001 and worked 2 x 5 hour shifts a week for almost 2 years, on a volunteer basis, so I coped much better than most, and was able to give very limited assistance to other agents. That doesn't mean I'm not deeply affected by handling these calls. Many tears were shed in our centre today, mine among them, with many more to come. Our stories are probably nothing compared to those heard by the emergency services but we're still here, coping as best we can, and will continue to be. We don't just take a call, then wander off for coffee. One call ends and the next drops in straight away, with it's own new challenges. I take an average of just over 400 calls per shift. On a day like today, when over 3/4 of our calls were regarding the fire zones, that is alot of others' grief and distress to cope with. Please keep us, the thousands of call centre agents and telephone operators, in your thoughts and prayers.
