Sell it!! and now!

I love quick fixes! I didnt approve of them at school, at work or in my own private life but I love them! Reasons? mmm..let me think…they are quick, they get the job done and 9 cases out of 10, they are the equivalent of 10 days of WHAT-WOULD-I-DO-INSTEAD effort bundled into one hectic day!
….plus … They have this semantic & ideological correlation with ’strike the iron when its hot’, the sort that Sean Connery had with James bond! Its not the same thing, but you think of one thing, you inevitably think of the other !

Sort of makes me wonder which is probably why I see such countless (..wondering if baseless too!) claims of get-quick-rich schemes taking over the Internet after their not-so-old victory over traditional media like TV and mouth-to-mouth marketing!
The other day, I lived past my more-than-fair share of those ‘you could make-a-mill-in-a-month (and wake up to Roger riney or schwab calling/begging you to take care of your investment portfolios)’ commercials on TV !!

Typically after midnight, they strike, one after another, in methodical precision..!!
.. and mostly after all those commercials about the latest hot.flash.skin episode of ‘girls gone wild’ and more-than-you-can-handle proportions of celeb gossip. Now, not a lot of people are watching TV after all that direct pandering, and I know I want something “more” out of life in general and my TV in particular when I am done with the daily mass of kitsch kichidi!

Probably the best time to pick a middle-aged voyager (thats right! strike it when ‘hot’) like me who knows there is no point going back and no fun moving forward in life…and so ends up looking for that ultimate ‘quick fix’ to patch it all up … to become the next da-awesome who can eat like a pig and still look a deer because …….(s)he is rich !

Seriously, I am glad there is so much in my life that I can fall back onto, much in my relationships that makes me feel loved but I wonder what if I (for that matter anyone) did not!

Then, is that not a subtle line that I cross when I make that eager attempt to “Sell it!! and now!!” to someone like that..?
when I close that deal in a rush, or use that extra twist of aggression (ah! I wish I could) or those by-now-famous ‘take-back’ clauses (”may be this is not for you”, “I could show you something from the less expensive range”, “This is the high end..but who has the money to buy it..right?”) instead of doing what we know is right but probably takes longer??!!

rrrrrr…My fear of death is eating me up ..and if you will excuse me, I need to go get some breakfast..before I starve and end up there ..and I gotta do it quick :D ~!
