Jo Cameron, a 71-year-old woman from Scotland, can claim to be the female version of the X-Man Wolverine.
And just in case you think I’m pulling your adamantium leg, consider the following:
For starters, grandma Cameron feels no pain.
In fact, there were times when she smelled the sizzling of her own flesh before noticing she had put her hand on the burning stove.
The weird thing is that people who don’t feel pain typically don’t live very long — their unfelt injuries pile up and kill them before they get to their 30’s.
Not so for X-Cameron.
That’s because she also seems to have a superior healing ability. Her mauled and scorched flesh heals quickly, usually without a scar. That’s how she could reach age 71, in spite of constantly taking stove damage.
On top of this, the woman never feels any fear, anxiety, or depression. She even has several unique genetic mutations that scientists have never seen before.
And here’s the crazy thing. It turns out this She-Wolverine didn’t even realize she had any superpowers until a few months ago. She thought she wasn’t unique in any way.
And that ties into the plot of today’s issue of my daily email serial:
You too might have resources that you don’t appreciate.
Here’s another example to get you thinking:
Some 20 years ago, pioneering Internet marketer Joe Vitale had an email list of around 800 names. Up till then, he hadn’t done anything with this list.
But at some point, Joe got a hankerin’ to buy a BMW Z3.
And he set his mind on paying the $40,000 price tag by hustling up new money, instead of tapping into savings.
So he looked over his assets…
And he noticed the unused email list.
And he decided to create an online course, delivered entirely through email, which he would pitch hard to this list.
The price of the course?
$1,500.
Long story short, 20-odd people bought Joe’s email-only course. He got his Z3. And it was all financed by an otherwise inactive list.
Now, you might not have an unused email list sitting around.
But you probably have at least some other resources — whether it’s real-life connections, a Facebook audience, or skills that you can trade and barter.
And if you do create some kind of an offer, and you need ideas on how to promote it successfully to an email list, then young mutant, head over to the following page:
