In The Beginning by Hal Archer
This is not a history lesson!
In the beginning, humans were free to roam and live as they
wished. Of course, there were risks and they had to be very
self sufficient. They hunted for their food and for hides
and pelts to keep them warm and protected from the elements.
They were free, but sometimes as the hunter they became the
hunted. Quite often they became victims of the very beasts
they hunted. Another danger was other humans that would
attack them and take away the bounty they had hunted so hard
for. But they were free.
As time passed some of the stronger and more aggressive drew
to them others and formed a tribe or small army. They then
became the protectors of the weaker and less aggressive.
But,it was at a price. They laid down rules, formed
territories, and told the people under them where they could
hunt. When the day ended, the hunter would now bring his
bounty to the leader, who would take the largest portion and
give back to the hunter his share. The hunter's share was
much smaller than the share kept by the leader. This, of
course, was so the hunter could feel safe and secure. But,
now he was no longer free.
As human-kind progressed, they learned to till the land,
grow crops and tame beasts into herds. The tribal leaders
now became huge landowners and used the masses or serfs to
work the land and tend the herds. The masses received a
place of shelter and a small share of the crops as well as
things produced by the herds. They were safe and protected,
but they were not free.
The agricultural age moved on into the industrial age. Many
inventions came into being, making human life easier and
better. Huge factories were built to produce the products
of the inventions. The masses were employed on the
production lines. They were given health and retirement
benefits. They lived better. They were more secure. But
they were not free!
Then, along came Silicon Valley and the computer. A great
new world was being created. People could use their PC's to
play games, communicate with others and do all manner of
things.
Now - the World Wide Web is born. People can communicate
with others anywhere in the world. On the Internet we are
equal, regardless of race, creed or gender. E-commerce was
created and the masses can compete with the giants.
Even as an associate or affiliate you can work with whatever
program you choose - you can work when and how you wish.
You can earn as much as your abilities will allow. The more
you work and the more you learn, the more you will earn.
You are almost be free!
The next step is to create your own product - develop your
market or niche. Pour your heart and soul into it, and see
it succeed. You will be nearer to being free.
When will you be truly free? When you realize that the
person to whom you are marketing is a living, breathing
flesh-and-blood individual. One who has hopes and dreams
the same as you. Someone who wants to trust you and be
given their chance to succeed. And when you commit yourself
to treating everyone in an ethical and honest manner -- when
you can look at yourself in the mirror and be sure that you
have done your utmost to uphold and earn that trust, then
you will truly be free!
