Created The First 'In Search Of Heroes™' Program In
The Coronado Eagle Newspaper"
by Ralph Zuranski
What is a Hero or Heroine?
How does one
arrive at this exalted position? According to "Big Brain," my
talking "Franklin Language Master," the attributes are the same
for both sexes. Heroes are individuals admired for their
achievements and qualities. They especially demonstrate the
courage to conquer fear or despair. Where are the Heroes of
today, when the world needs them so desperately?
Are we the audience and the
major news media equally responsible for the lack of publicity
for Heroes?
Have you ever wondered, "Why is
there such a focus on traumatic, violent and frightening
events?" Does a steady diet of this material perpetuate fear and
despair?
Do we experience a vicarious
thrill from the misfortune of others?
Are our senses dulled, ethics
corrupted and morals so jaded we require greater quantities of
violence and shocking events to stimulate our interest? I still
remember when one murder caused social outrage and community
activism!
Too many people today are
apprehensive, frightened by things beyond the edges of
perception.
They are afraid of many things.
Riots, wars, terrorist acts and natural catastrophes are
increasing in frequency and intensity.
Physical and emotional abuse,
chronic diseases, financial failure affect every family to
different degrees.
The consequences of unremitting
fear just don't go away by themselves. The quality of life
decreases dramatically when all hope is lost. Something positive
must be done. A solution is to locate and publicize real-life
Heroes in these fearful and perilous times.
The tremendous need for
inspiration and positive role models increases exponentially
with each horrific act and devastating event.
Experts believe a factor of ten
times as much positive stimulus is required to overcome one
negative event.
How many people are desirous of
reading and seeing uplifting articles about people triumphing
over human trials, tribulations and misery?
Are there any real-life Heroes
laboring to help solve the immense social and environmental
problems facing humanity?
I believe the answer is an
emphatic yes! Heroes are everywhere!
They are ordinary people
determined to serve and help others; to make the world a better
place. Daily, across the face of the earth, people willingly
assist family members, friends, and strangers.
They compassionately minister
to the injured, poor and sick.
They Help Enthusiastically,
Responsibly, Optimistically, Exceptionally and Socially
(HEROES), with no fanfare, demand for recognition or public
acclaim. These humble people of every race demonstrate the
loftiest qualities of humanity.
Hopefully the news media will
publish and broadcast these stories. The goals of the program
will be to:
-
Identify and
praise local Heroes.
-
Educate people
about Heroes and heroic action.
-
Inspire young
people to want to become Heroes.
-
Help young writers
and photographers develop and perfect their writing skills.
-
Receive published
credit for their writing, art and photo contributions.
Extensive research has proven
individuals often meet or exceed their own and other's
expectations.
When children envision themselves
as Heroes, heroic action is not far behind. Public recognition
and concrete rewards for excellence are a wonderful incentive
for young people. Every person can benefit by creating a Hero or
Heroine within, to help them deal with the difficulties of life.
Eleanor Roosevelt once said,
"The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their
dreams."
The creators of the "In Search Of
Heroes Program" have the desire to inspire young children to
dream, to imagine themselves Heroes. These people are working
hard to create vehicles for the dreams of teenagers to become
reality. As in the book "Dune," the dreamers must awaken. People
need to believe they can make their dreams for global peace,
joy, prosperity and love a universal experience. The heroic
example of others is a prerequisite.
"I don't know what your destiny
will be, but one thing I know; the only ones among you who will
be really happy are those who will have sought and found how to
serve." Dr. Albert Schweitzer.

"Ralph realized in
the year 2001 that the internet is the perfect vehicle to spread
Good News world-wide instantly and inexpensively!"
He started attending internet
marketing conferences in 2001, searching for the most successful
copywriters, marketers, legal experts and software creators to
help develop the training material for the new program. To pay
his way at the conferences, Ralph photographed speakers and
attendees.
He then created theme websites for
each event to educate others about the "In Search of Heroes™"
Program.
Click Here for
links to the Internet Marketing Photo sites to see the photos
and the speakers sharing their wisdom through the captions under
each photo. The message is so much more powerful when you
combine words and photos of the speakers. The photos of
attendees and the speakers created a definite sense of community
where individuals were able to match the names on business cards
with the faces of the people they met at the events.
"Leaders in the Internet community
offered to help create the training course that will make the
2007 'In Search Of Heroes™' internet marketing program an
international success!"
Many of the top internet experts
were recognized as Internet Heroes by Ralph Zuranski. The
leading internet professionals,
copywriters, marketing experts, lawyers and asset protection
specialists and software developers, volunteered to help create
the training material for the In Search Of Heroes™ Program. You
can benefit from their amazing wisdom by reading their articles
published daily in the
"In Search Of Heroes™" Blog.
"The Internet Marketing Training
Course will include copywriting as a primary focus because of
the incredible power of words to transform people's hearts and
minds."
Many of the top copywriters like
Ted Nicholas,
David Garfinkel,
Michel Fortin,
Joe Vitale,
Lorrie Morgan-Ferrero,
Vicky Heron,
Alex Mandossian,
Craig Garber,
Craig Perrine,
Troy White and
Carl Galletti volunteered to
be interviewed and create course material for the program. Many
have kindly offered the use of their educational articles at no
cost to the visitors to this site. Every day new articles are
posted on the
"In Search Of Heroes™" Blog
for your reading pleasure.
"Using the newest internet
technologies along with the application of the best marketing
wisdom and most effective copywriting techniques, the program
will be an important vehicle for generating income for community
programs that need funding."
The internet leaders want to teach
young people how to use the power of words, audio, video, blogs
and podcasting to promote "Good News" about local heroes and
their businesses or the companies they work for. When
these individuals receive the recognition they deserve and their
businesses generate greater income, because of this valuable
exposure, they have the time and money to make a beneficial
difference in their community.
"Once students learn how to write
copy, develop websites and work with audio and video, they can
help small businesses in their community generate income through
he internet."
Working as interns in different
businesses will give students the experience they need to excel
in the business world after they graduate. The community works
together to benefit everyone, especially those in the greatest
need.
"The 'In Search Of Heroes™'
Internet Marketing Training Course will revolutionize the
learning experience for students."
The interviews of the copywriting
and internet marketing super stars will be transformed into a
course that includes the videos, audios and text. The material
will be presented in multiple learning formats so each person
can benefit from the information presented in the way that
stimulates and enhances their ability to learn. We will use
mind-maps and
brain balancing images and
colors that appeal to how boys and girls brains and left and
right hemispheres process information differently. These
advanced techniques of teaching will insure, "No child is left
behind!"
"Health Heroes will help young
people to feel like Heroes...to discover their own Heroic
potential within, to have a clear mind, plenty of energy and
balanced emotions"
Many health professionals
volunteered to help young people look and feel their best by
sharing the secrets of health they discovered during their
medical careers.
