"Hi Guys,

This may be a bit long, but I want to tell you all this....

What I am about to tell you is... well, as success secrets go, it may be the greatest success story yet, but in telling it I may be breaking one of the biggest rules in the community... you see…

I’m a S-u-p-e-r H-e-r-o.

But my origin story doesn't begin with a radioactive spider, mutant powers, or being rocketed to earth as an infant from a distant alien planet. No. My success secrets story begins with SBI... and an audio MP3. Let me take it from the top.

You’ve all probably heard this part before. I was working in a job that initially I had enjoyed, but that was increasingly taking up my free time and sacrificing everything else to it. My health, my happiness, my relationship, all slowly being eaten away and eroded by my job. Now don’t get me wrong as manager of one of Ireland’s leading Fitness companies and working as a personal trainer I was enthusiastic about my job. I made a difference, and I soon got addicted to what I was doing and the company I worked for.

I was spending my days working in the office, then my nights working on the company website, writing articles and my weekends training people for the company. Of course I wasn’t being paid more than my original basic salary for all the extra work I was doing... my health deteriorated, I wasn’t getting a chance to decompress, to relax, not even to eat regular meals.

Finally it came to a head when the company sent me down to the country to run a HUGE 50,000 person fitness event and to present and demonstrate the latest fitness equipment on my own. I had no backup, I had no support, I had no one there and did the whole thing single handed. Then, when it was over, I packed the whole thing up, and well past midnight walking back to my small Bed and Breakfast in the pouring rain, I felt miserable.

Truly miserable.

I wanted a better life than this.

So that night I logged on and started looking for success secrets and a way to leverage my time, to make more of myself and to find a way to pursue the healthy balanced lifestyle I wanted. And I found SBI – or more accurately Lynn Van Dyke, talking about her success secrets and her experience of SBI in an audio fitness seminar. She spoke about building a new fitness business online that let her work from home and live life the way she wanted…the way I wanted…so I signed up and started working on my website.

And thanks to Dr.Ken, founder of SBI, it was so different to what I was used to. It was so simple. The method was so breathtakingly obvious and effective I was shocked that I hadn’t applied it before. I worked furiously on the site. After 4 months I had isometric-training.com, an Alexa ranking in the top 1%, and more number one page rankings than I could shake a stick at. I followed the 10 day program, built a relationship and newsletter with my clients, implemented ad idea suggestions from this, the most awesome of forums... and then handed in my resignation.

Okay, this is all well and good. I’d freed myself from the shackles of my dead end job, got my life back and built a successful working business online... but how on earth does that make you a s-u-p-e-r-h-e-r-o?

Again, it all comes back to SBI.

I was bringing in a decent income from the Google ads on my website... so I started developing bigger and better monetization models based on feedback from the incredible SBI forums – online personal training, and then a few months later I released the my first e-book. I was shocked. It was a success. My name flew around the internet, reviews, forums, the “buzz” as SBI calls it started. I released another and another... and then a complete 250 page course... a total of 8 books on my website. Which started bringing in more money per month than I had been getting paid in a year in my previous job.

And finally I was able to achieve my lifetime ambition, the one I had since I was 8 yrs old.

I became a s-u-p-e-r h-e-r-o.

When I was 8 yrs old I was first introduced to c-o-m-i-c b-o-o-k-s and s-u-p-e-r-h-e-r-o-e-s and I had this crazy dream that I would one day grow up to be one. I was most inspired by the B-a-t-m-a-n. He didn’t have super powers. He just had his own intelligence, perseverance and resources. I had SBI.

After the first year of being out on my own with SBI, I achieved my dream, the dream of that 8 yr old boy... and I bought Michael Keaton’s 1989 B-a-t-m-a-n suit, then the suit from the 1992 B-a-t-m-a-n Returns, and most recently Christian Bales B-a-t-m-a-n suit from the new B-a-t-m-a-n movie B-a-t-m-a-n Begins.


My Justice League, a night out after a bunch of appearances for the kids. (I'm Batman)




Thanks to SBI I had the life of billionaire Bruce Wayne and the tools of Batman... and I became a super hero... taking the suits and making appearances on behalf of several children’s charities such as Down Syndrome Ireland.

Thanks to the SBI system I have been able to let children just like the 8yr old I was meet their hero’s. From schools appearance’s warning about the dangers of drugs and bullying to appearances in children’s hospital I have been able to give hope and inspiration to hundreds of kids as Batman. The most satisfying and                                                             The 1992 B-a-t-m-a-n Returns Suit

meaningful moments of my life have been in seeing the smiles of those kids faces as they shake Batman’s hand.  

SBI made me financially independent. It let me live the life I wanted where I could spend time with my family and friends. Develop and nurture the relationships that make life worth living. It gave me confidence in my beliefs and opinions. It showed me that others felt my contributions were worthwhile.

Thanks to SBI's success secrets I have helped thousands of people get fitter, stronger and healthier. Every day I get emails from the people whose lives I have touched and transformed. It is the greatest privilege of my life to know that I have helped people become healthier and happier; the way SBI has helped me.

SBI has let me live a silly childhood dream, and in doing so has helped hundreds of sick children and given support to many charities that desperately need our help.

Ken's work here at SBI, all of my fellow SBIers, have allowed me and so many more, all the other success secrets out there, to make the world a better place. You have given us the opportunity to present the very best of ourselves, and to help others make the very best out of their selves and that is the most satisfying success.

I cannot thank you enough.

Thanks you for letting me take the most remarkable journey of my life.


Yours, 

Paul J.O’Brien (Aka B-a-t-m-a-n) "
