Hi Joy!
First of all I’ve got to say that I’m so glad you enjoyed the course and I am very appreciative of the fantastic review you’ve wrote here.
I love how you went through section by section and told us what you found valuable. I use all feedback I receive to make the course better for everyone so this really helps everyone out.
To clarify on section 4 – helping those close to you is something that makes YOU happy, so I would never ask you not to do that. 🙂 The problem arises when you begin sacrificing your own happiness for the happiness of others. Even if you love that person, I believe it is detrimental to them because each person needs to learn how to keep their happiness under their own control or they will forever be reliant on other people, and that is not an enjoyable way to live.
Of course, every person on the planet wants to connect with others, be understood and appreciated, love and be loved. If helping others makes you happy, I am all for that. I know I find happiness from it too. But the moment it comes at the expense of your own happiness.. it’s time to start seeking out solutions.
That’s just the way I see it. 🙂
Anyway I again appreciate the review and I will certainly be here to answer any questions that pop up.
Thanks again Joy!
Hi James,
Thanks for standing by to look out for questions.
It was a great course – my only regret is that I didn’t come across something like this years ago (before you were born, actually) LOL.
I have to come clean and say that there was a major career decision in my life that my much loved and very well-meaning Mum and Dad made for me when I left school. I went along with it “just because”.
Had I done what I really wanted to do, my whole life would have been completely different. Who knows whether it would have been more successful, or less? But I have always regretted not following what was a huge career dream for me at the time.
That said, the other career they chose for me instead – computer programming – was a great choice as I love that, and it’s been kind to me too. Maybe it WAS more suitable than what I wanted to do – but I’ll never know and it does bug me even now, years later.
It’s just how it was in those days – but the good that came out of it was that when my sons chose very unconventional paths after uni I stood back and did what I could to help them.
Soul-baring over for today – thanks for a great course, and I hope many people read it before they’re left with the regrets I still have.
If you have a dream, follow it, and let James’s course guide you on the way 🙂

Hi Joy and James,
I’ve known James for a long time. I was so impressed of how much of business and life itself at such a young age.
Leave it to you James to explain how success can be simplified. It can if we get rid of all the noise in our head and subconscious. We have to believe we can be successful in any endeavor we seek. It starts from within, no matter how much family and friends have told you it is impossible.
We need to step out of that box and walk our own road. I believe it starts out with “where are you going” Ahhh…such an important question to ask. We do need to be clear on what we want to do and make a plan. Then take action.
Sounds simple hugh? Not when you do the work, so I do believe this course will help the new and seasoned.
Thanks Joy and James,

Hi Donna,
James never ceases to amaze me with his insight and wisdom. He’s packed so much learning into his life that it’s almost scary – in a nice way 🙂
Yes, getting your head in the right place is so important and, however much you already “know it”, I think everyone can do with a “top-up” every now and again.
I know in my head where I’m going – still working on getting it put down in writing!.
Thanks for your visit,
Joy – Blogging After Dark
Hi Donna!
I believe that without the proper mindset, it doesn’t matter how much techincal know-how you have – you’ll never put it to use and make anything out of it. Likewise, with the proper mindset, you’ll eventually find out everything you need to know to succeed, even if it comes through a series of failures.
If I were logical, I would’ve quit the whole blogging thing after several years of getting nowhere. But I knew in my heart that I could succeed and so I have. And I believe with the proper mindset, all of us can succeed in every area of life that is important to us. I think a complete, happy, successful life requires focus in all of the different areas so I’m happy to be able to provide such a complete resource for those individuals who crave success.
Thanks Donna!
Hello Joy,
Great post 🙂
Good to know that you loved the course, many of us will get retired off in our middle ages.
But this is something which can help every body out there.
Now the time is of socialization. Everyone wants to reach beyond their limit and establish relationship
with other persons on the globe. The world we never dreamed off.
Thank you.
Keep Writing 🙂

Hi Shantanu,
My generation has been luckier than youngsters today and I certainly wouldn’t like to be starting out now, because I fear you’re right.
My elder son has already been made redundant from a well-paid job that he studied hard to qualify for. Happily he has started his own business now, in a completely different field. Intelligence is never wasted, and he’s just applying it differently now.
I hope all young (and not so young) people will see the writing on the wall and look for their own “plan B” – taking James’s course to encourage them.
Joy – Blogging After Dark
Hi Shantanu!
I’m a strong believer in freedom of material possessions and I actually have another course out on early retirement.
However like anything that’s challenging in life, you’ve got to have the proper mindset to really be able to go after and acquire it. There’s a reason most people in life unfortunately do not reach the levels of success they desire – it’s not easy, and they don’t know how to do it.
People interested in a success course are already more likely to achieve it anyway – with this course I hope to clear those blocks.
Such is the beauty of the internet – I’m so happy I’m able to teach and help people from all around the world at any time of the day or night!
Thanks Shantanu!
Hi James,
Thanks for replying to all these comments – please prod me to review your course on early retirement in a few weeks.
Joy – Blogging After Dark
Hi Joy,
Another honest and interesting review. I really appreciate the sparseness and clarity of your writing. Also liked how your related the review (and course content) with examples from your personal life – very effective.
Didn’t know James had this course out. I’ve been quite pleased with his other courses that I bought. (Thanks to your reviews 😉 Based on the past quality he delivered, I wouldn’t hesitate to buy from him again.
Good post, good review. Thanks and have a great week and enjoy even more success…
Edward
Hi Edward,
I’m pleased you liked how I approached the review of Success Simplified. I had a different “treatment” in mind, and then changed tack at the last minute and thought it would be interesting to go the way I did.
James’s course and ebooks have never disappointed and I’m pleased you’ve enjoyed your previous purchases (for which, thanks once again!)
Have a great week, Joy – Blogging After Dark
Hey Edward, good to talk with you again!
Out of all my courses I consider this one to be one of the most important. Without the proper mindset, it doesn’t really matter how much technical know-how you have – you’ll never make the most out of it.
I want to help people make the most out of every opportunity that they create.
So hey, if that sounds like you, you know where to reach me! 😉
Here’s to your success!

I thought it was going to be a major borefest. It was surprisingly great. I learned a lot about marketing my business. I know that marketing is very pivotal in increasing your revenue and client base. It isn’t a long drawn out 150 chapter book. It was actually a pretty short and easy read. I recommend this book to anyone looking to help market their business.
Hi Peter,
I think you’re mistaking this course for something else you might have bought. It’s not a book to be read, it’s videos.
Just making clear to anyone who IS thinking of buying the course, that they will be getting videos, NOT a book to read.
Joy – Blogging After Dark
Hi Peter!
You’ve definitely got the wrong product. You haven’t taken this course, and it isn’t a book.
I would however be interested in whatever book that is, as I may wish to read it myself!
Hi Joy
Success is a mind thing so I absolutely agree with you. This seems to be an interesting course which looks at Success from the angle of the mindset.
I love the way you described the course and you made it so interesting and simple. Thank you for sharing and I will take a look at it.
Have a wonderful weekend.
Thanks Ikechi,
I’m glad you enjoyed the review, and I’m sure you will be impressed with the course too.
You have a good weekend too – it’s one of our UK holiday weekends, so I may even manage a little relaxing too.
Joy – Blogging After Dark
Hi Ikechi!
I believe that the mindset someone carries is one of the largest factors that will determine the overall level of success and happiness they achieve in life. This is true for all areas of success, be it personal success, professional success, so on and so forth.
My goal is to provide a complete solution for those who want to get in this frame of mind and position themselves to set and achieve all of the goals they want in life.
Thank you for taking the time to read through Joy’s review!
Hi Joy (and James),
It’s great you have written a review on James’ course
People can learn the nuts and bolts of internet marketing and the like, yet never reach their full potential because of mental blockages.
This course will certainly help people pinpoint the problem areas. But it also offers practical strategies to help fix the problems.
You talked about fear and how it can be a limiting factor. We kind of become paralysed by our fears – inertia sets in and before we know it another year has passed and not much to show for it.
Of course, there are different types of fear – fear of the new, fear of failure, fear of success, and fear of criticism.
You are right – fear is the greatest motivator. In my country (Australia) and the USA, we see opportunistic politicians playing the fear card for all its worth. They do it because they know that people always respond to fear.
Thanks again for your excellent review, Joy, and thanks to James for bringing this valuable information to the marketplace.
Kim
Hi Kim,
James always does good work, and he was extremely effective with this success mindset course.
Interesting you should mention politicians and their use of fear tactics.
In the UK (as of May 2016) we’re completely beset by political scare-mongering at the moment as the politicians from both camps of the “Stay in Europe” vs “Leave Europe” paint doom and gloom scenarios if we make the wrong decision. Which will be the successful outcome I’m no longer sure!
Perhaps I’d better try re-watching the success course videos before I vote LOL.
