Last evening I watch a TV movie titled “The Horse Whisperer”. I felt it had a message for us humans.

Two of the main characters were a teenage girl and her horse. One snowy winter morning in a country setting out side New York City, she and her girl friend decided to go for a ride.They decided to take a short cut and came to a very slippery slop. After much encouragement, the horses started up the slop. On horse fell and carried the rider down against a tree killing the rider. Our girl and her horse make the climb only to come face to face with a logging truck coming down the road. The horse reared, throwing the girl partially of the way, but becoming seriously injured.

Enter mother and father, mother a magazine editor and father a lawyer, who have a relationship challenge, meet at the hospital where the doctors are removing part of a leg.

Meanwhile, the veterinarian is trying to decide to put the horse down or save it. Mother, can not deal with all this and leaves it up to someone else to solve the challenges.

The story has two traumatized entities. Mother knows only that something must be done and focuses on the horse. Father says leave it to the esperts.Mother finally take control and drives from New York to Montana with the horse in a trailer and her daughter with her to fined the horse whisper, who after some coercion agrees to work with the horse. And indirectly help the girl.

We humans are a complex system of thoughts, emotions, dreams, beliefs, values and principles, which are all subject to LAW.

As we live each day, experiences, what people tell us and what we tell others affects every part of our complex system. Many of us end up traumatized with a broken spirit unable to see how we can get on track, to get out of our ruts and on the road to our dreams.

The family and the horse in the movie, each knew that things had to change, the question was how. Each was griped by fear.

I too have been in that deep pit.

Noah St. John, in his book “Permission to succeed” sets out a system of recovery and ultimate success. In summary here are the highlights:

1. Write out your view of how you desire your life should be.
2. List all of “why- to” do or have those things.
3. List all of “why-not-to” take any action. Just stay as you are.

Change will only be made when your “why-to” is stronger that you “why-no-to”

As part of this exercise, ask your self powerful questions like:

1. Why am I rich?
2. Why am I filled with love?
3. Why am I enjoying health?
4. Why am I enjoying my success?

Our sub-conscious mind knows that it must find the answer to those questions. You do not have to sit there and try to find the answer. Once the question is put in motion, it’s irrevocable.

Success is a habit. To change a habit, we must have a reason to change and develop a new habit. Success is to ask better questions, and let life give you every answer you can dream of. It is there waiting for you. And that is true wealth.

I’m back after a months absence.  During that time I received the following information from Mike Dillard, of Magnetic Sponsoring. Click over to our website to learn more about Mike.

As you read the article, ask yourself, with an open mind of an inside learner, “which group am I in?”

Mike writes.

I am fascinated by the world we live in today, America in particular…

What was once the shining beacon of hope, leadership, and freedom around the world, is fast becoming a wasteland divided – with looters on one side, and the sheeple who willingly trade-in their pride, their dreams, and their honor as men – in exchange for hand-outs like social security, unemployment, and food stamps, referred to as “benefits” by the looters.

The Land of the Free, and the Home of The Brave, has become the “Land of the Slaves and Home of The Victims”.

I see this every day, as pleads for deals and freebies flood my inbox from moochers who name every excuse under the sun, as to why I should give my knowledge and my expertise to them from free, because “I owe them”, just like the government owes them, their boss owes them, and their spouse owes

They blame money, and those who have it, for the problems of the world. They call money the root of all evil.

Is that the case?

Well today, I’d like to share with you some of the most profound words, I’ve ever experienced, which will stay with me for the rest of my life. If we’re to hold onto the freedom, the ideas, and values they stand for, they represent the last hope for our country, and our shrinking world…

And as for you… How you feel about the following story will determine your financial fate, and your life.

=============================
Page 410 – “Atlas Shrugged”
=============================

“Standing unnoticed on the edge of a group, Rearden heard a woman, who had large diamond earrings and a flabby, nervous face, ask tensely, “Senior d’Anconia, what do you think is going to happen to the world?”

Just exactly what it deserves.”

“Oh how cruel!”

Don’t you believe in the operation of moral law, madame?” Francisco asked gravely.

“I do.”

Rearden heard Bertram Scudder, outside the group, say to a girl who made some sound of indignation, “Don’t let him disturb you. You know, money is the root of all evil – and he’s the typical product of money.”

Rearden did not think that Francisco could have heard it, but he saw Francisco turning to them with a gravely courteous smile.

“So you think that money is the root of all evil? Said Francisco d’ Anconia.

Have you ever asked what is the root of money? Money is a tool of exchange, which can’t exist unless there are goods produced and men able to produce them.

Money is the material shape of the principle that men who wish to deal with one another must deal by trade, and give value for value.

Money is not the tool of the moochers, who claim your product by tears, or of the looters, who take it from you by force. Money is made possible only by the men who produce. Is that what you consider evil.

When you accept money in payment for your effort, you do so only on the conviction that you will exchange it for the product of the effort of others. It is not the moochers or the looters who give value to money. Not an ocean of tears nor all the guns in the world can transform those pieces of paper in your wallet into bread you will need to survive tomorrow

Those pieces of paper, which should have been gold, are a token of honor – your claim upon the energy of the men who produce. Your wallet is your statement of hope that somewhere in the world around you there are men who will not default on that moral principle which is the root of money. Is that what you consider evil?

Have you ever looked for the root of production? Take a look at an electric generator and dare tell yourself that it was created by the muscular effort of unthinking brutes. Try to grow a seed of wheat without the knowledge left to you by men who had to discover it for the first time.

Try to obtain your food by means of nothing but physical motions and you’ll learn that man’s mind is the root of all the goods produced and of all the wealth that has ever existed on earth.

But you say that money is made by the strong at the expense of the weak? What strength do you mean? It is not the strength of guns or muscles. Wealth is the product of a man’s capacity to think. Then is money made by the man who invents it?

Is money made by the intelligent at the expense of fools? by the able at the expense of the incompetent? by ambitious at the expense of the lazy? Money is made-before it can be looted or mooched-made by the effort of every honest man, each to the extent of his ability.

An honest man is the one who knows that he can’t consume more than he has produced.

To trade by means of money is the code of men of good will. Money rests on the axiom that every man is the owner of his mind and his effort. Money allows no power to prescribe the value of your effort except the voluntary choice of the man who is willing to trade you his effort in return. Money permits you to obtain for your goods and your labor that which they are worth to the men who buy them, but no more.

Money permits no deals except those to mutual benefit by the unforced judgment of the traders. Money demands of you the recognition that men must work for their own benefit, not for their own injury, for their gain, not their loss – the recognition that they are not beats of burden, born to carry the weight of your misery – that you must offer them values, not wounds – that the common bond among men is not the exchange of suffering, but the exchange of goods.

Money demands that you sell, not your weakness to men’s stupidity, but your talent to their reason; it demands that you buy, not the shoddiest they offer, but the best that your money can find.

And when men live by trade – with reason, not force, as their final arbiter- it is the best product that wins, the best performance, the man of best judgment and highest ability – and the degree of a man’s productiveness is the degree of his reward.

This is the code of existence whose tool and symbol is money. Is that what you consider evil? But money is only a tool. It will take you wherever you wish, but it will not replace you as the driver.

It will give you the means for satisfaction of your desires, but it will not provide you with desires. Money is the scourge of men who attempt to reverse the law of causality – the men who seek to replace the mind by seizing the products of the mind.

Money will not purchase happiness for the man who has no concept of what he wants: money will not give him a code of values, if he’s evaded the knowledge of what to value, and it will not provide him with a purpose, if he’s evaded the choice of what to seek. Money will not buy intelligence for the fool, or admiration for the coward, or respect for the incompetent.

The man who attempts to purchase the brains of his superiors to serve him, with his money replacing his judgment, ends up by becoming the victim of his inferiors.

The men of intelligence desert him, but the cheats and the frauds come flocking to him, drawn by a law which he has not discovered: that no man may be smaller than his money. Is this the reason why you call it evil?

Only the man who does not need it, is fit to inherit wealth – the man who would make his own fortune no matter where he started. If an heir is equal to his money, it serves him; if not, it destroys him. But you look on and you cry that money corrupted him.

Did it?

Or did he corrupt his money?

Do not envy a worthless heir; his wealth is not yours and you would have done no better with it. Do not think that it should have been distributed among you; loading the world with fifty parasites instead of one, would not bring back the dead virtue which was the fortune. Money is a living power that dies without its root. Money will not serve the mind that cannot match it. Is this the reason you call it evil?

Money is your means of survival. The verdict you pronounce upon the source of your livelihood is the verdict you pronounce upon your life.

If the source is corrupt, you have damned your own existence. Did you get your money by fraud? By pandering to men’s vices or men’s stupidity? By catering to fools, in the hope of getting more than your ability deserves? By lowering your standards? By doing work you despise for purchasers you scorn? If so, then your money will not give you a moment’s or a penny’s worth of joy.

By catering to fools, in the hope of getting more than your ability deserves? By lowering your standards? By doing work you despise for purchasers you scorn? If so, then your money will not give you a moment’s or a penny’s worth of joy.

Then all the things you buy will become, not a tribute to you, but a reproach; not an achievement, but a reminder of shame. Then you’ll scream that money is evil. Evil, because it would not pinch-hit for your self-respect? Evil, because it would not let you enjoy your depravity? Is this the root of your hatred of money?

Money will always remain an effect and refuse to replace you as the cause. Money is the product of virtue, but it will not give you virtue and it will not redeem your vices. Money will not give you the unearned, neither in matter nor in spirit. Is this the root of your hatred of money?

Or did you say that it’s the love of money that’s the root of all evil?

To love a thing is to know and love its nature. To love money is to know and love the fact that money is the creation of the best power within you, and your passkey to trade your effort for the effort of the best among men. It’s the person who would sell his soul for a nickel, who is the loudest in proclaiming his hatred of money – and he has good reason to hate it.

The lovers of money are willing to work for it. They know they are able to deserve it.

Let me give you a tip on a clue to men’s characters: the man who damns money has obtained it dishonorably; the man who respects it has earned it. Run for your life from any man who tells you that money is evil.

That sentence is the leper’s bell of an approaching looter. So long as men live together on earth and need means to deal with one another – their only substitute, if they abandon money, is the muzzle of a gun.

That sentence is the leper’s bell of an approaching looter. So long as men live together on earth and need means to deal with one another – their only substitute, if they abandon money, is the muzzle of a gun.

But money demands of you the highest virtues, if you wish to make it or keep it. Men who have no courage, pride, or self-esteem, men who have no moral sense of their right to their money and are not willing to defend it as they defend their life, men who apologize for being rich – will not remain rich for long.

They are the natural bait for the swarms of looters that stay under rocks for centuries, but come crawling out at the first smell of a man who begs to be forgiven for the guilt of owning wealth. They will hasten to relieve him of the guilt – and his life, as he deserves.

Then you will see the rise of the men of the double standard – the men who live by force, yet count on those who live by trade to create the value of their looted money – the men who are the hitchhikers of virtue. In a moral society, these are the criminals, and the statues are written to protect you against them.

But when a society establishes criminals-by-right and looters-by-law – men who use force to seize the wealth of disarmed victims – then money becomes its creator’ avenger. Such looters believe it safe to rob defenseless men, once they’ve passed a law to disarm them.

But their loot becomes the magnet for other looters, who get it from them as they got it. Then the race goes, not to the ablest at production, but to those most ruthless at brutality. When force is the standard, the murderer wins over the pickpocket. And then that society vanishes, in a spread of ruins and slaughter.

When force is the standard, the murderer wins over the pickpocket. And then that society vanishes, in a spread of ruins and slaughter.

Do you wish to know whether that day is coming? Watch money.

Money is the barometer of a society’s virtue. When you see that trading is done, not by consent, but by compulsion – when you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing – when you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors – when you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work, and your laws don’t protect you against them, but protect them against you – when you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice – you may know that your society is doomed.

Money is so noble a medium that it does not compete with guns and it does not make terms with brutality. It will not permit a country to survive as half-property, half loot.

Whenever destroyers appear among men, they start by destroying money, for money is men’s protection and the base of a moral existence. Destroyers seize gold and leave it to its owners in a counterfeit pile of paper. This kills all objective standards and delivers men into the arbitrary power of an arbitrary setter of values

Gold was an objective value, an equivalent of wealth produced. Paper is a mortgage on wealth that does not exist, backed by a gun aimed at those who are expected to produce it.

Paper is a check drawn by legal looters upon an account which is not theirs: upon the virtue of the victims. Watch for the day when it bounces, marked: Account overdrawn.

When you have made evil the means of survival, do not expect men to remain good. Do not expect them to stay moral and lose their lives for the purpose of becoming the fodder of the immoral. Do not expect them to produce, when production is punished and looting rewarded. Do not ask, ‘who is destroying the world?’ You are.

You stand in the midst of the greatest achievements of the greatest productive civilization and you wonder why it’s crumbling around you, while you’re damning its life-blood – money.

You look upon money as the savages did before you, and you wonder why the jungle is creeping back to the edge of your cities. Throughout men’s history, money was always seized by looters of one brand or another, whose names changed, but whose method remained the same: to seize wealth by force and to keep the producers bound, demeaned, defamed, deprived of honor.

That phrase about the evil of money, which you mouth with such righteous recklessness, comes from a time when wealth was produced by the labor of slaves – slaves who repeated the motions once discovered by somebody’s mind and left unimproved for centuries.

So long as production was ruled by force, and wealth was obtained by conquest, there was little con conquer. Yet through all the centuries of stagnation and starvation, men exalted the looters, as aristocrats of the sword, as aristocrats of birth, as aristocrats of the bureau, and despised the producers, as slaves, as traders, as shopkeepers – as industrialists.

To the glory of mankind, there was, for the first and only time in history, a country of money – and I have no higher, more reverent tribute to pay to America, for this means: a country of reason, justice, freedom, production, achievement.

For the first time, man’s mind and money were set free, and there were no fortunes-by-conquest, but only fortunes-by-work, and instead of swordsmen and slaves, there appeared the real maker of wealth, the greatest worker, the highest type of human being – the self-man – the American Industrialist.

Until you discover that money is the root of all good, you ask for your own destruction.

When money ceases to be the tool by which men deal with one another, then men become the tools of men. Blood, whips, and guns – or dollars.

Take your choice – there is no other – and your time is running out.”

On Nov 23, 2009, I had the good fortune to listen in to a phone conversation between Marci Shimoff and Darius Barazandeh. The topic of the conversation was “How to be Happy in Changing Times”.

Marci has authored several of the “Chicken Soup for the Soul” books and was a participant in the video “The secret”

Her view is that happiness is the “Goal of all Goals”.

I find it interesting that most people have the goal of “Freedom” ,time and money, when in fact the real desire of the heart is “Happiness”

When Happiness is the big “why”, in her view, the other things will follow.

Research has determined that each of us has a “happiness set point”. Set point is an emotion to which we always retire. Our lives are subjected to various high and low points after which we return always to our set point.

Study of lottery winners shows an immediate high point which wares off in about one year and then they are back to the level of happiness, or unhappiness, which they had before winning the money.

The same results for people who have been through a major accident or illness. In about one year they are back to the set point level of before the incident.

Marci informed us that research has proven that 50% of happiness is built into our subconscious mind at birth. The other 50% is developed from our environment and the resulting habits formed over our life time.

As a result we can change our habits and Marci suggests that there are 21 habits to be worked on.

Research shows that people who have “happiness” and “joy” experience the following:

1. less illness
2. live longer
3. receive more love
4. attract more success
5. make more money. ( some say a million dollars over a life time)

We live in a friendly Universe and our life’s purpose is to experience the highest good. There are no victims unless we create them. There is a loving “Presence” that can bring us into a higher energetic level and a feeling of being supported by and attached to life.

The first habit to develop is to look for ways that we are supported. When we are in the present moment, observe the signs and listen to the inner voice.

Another habit to develop is that of “gratitude”.

Marci told the story of a lady who was ill with a number of conditions and was in a wheel chair from time to time. While thinking about her condition, at first as a victim, she realized that was not getting her anywhere. She decided to plug into “loving happiness” and beam it out every day to other people as they come into contact with her.

As she went through her day she would silently say to, first to herself, those she came in contact with and anyone else, the follwoing:

            May I (you) be safe

            May I (you) be healthy

            May I (you) be rich

            Mat I (you) live with ease.

Over a period of time her health sky rocketed and disappeared. Doctors suggested a miracle. She knew it was the power of the Universe. Happiness raised the energy vibration level which in turn attracted to her unlimited benefits.

Another habit to develop is the power of forgiveness. It changes to the Heart.

To grow in Wealth, it really is an inside job.  Our purpose in life is to:

            Grow in love

            Learn our life lessons.

Wealth is an inside job.

A very wise teacher from years past, Socrates, often told his students:” I can teach you nothing. I can only help you find the answers to your questions within your self”. This blog is in the same position. My purpose is to help you determine what the “right” questions are and then lead you to where you can get the “right” answers.

Wealth is an inside job to which I am continually studying to advance myself past the Unlimited phase.

On Saturday, I listened in on a conversation between Dr. Noah St.John and Jeneth Blackert. The topic was “why are you going down the road with your foot on the brake”. He suggested that we are starving ourselves of success. Most of us settle for the crumbs of life.

Dr. St. John outlined 3 phases that all of the highly successful people have gone through. Many of them like Trump, Gates, Buffet, and others went through the stages without really knowing what they were doing.

The first level is THOUGHT.

In the subconscious, the process is, do I believe that it works?, do I believe in myself?, and do I believe that I can do it?

The second level is WORDS.

Have I voiced, spoken out loud, what my vision and plan of achievement is? Have I put the plan on paper?

The third level is ACTION.

Action is the only way to what is to be created. 

This is where the persistent action comes into play. We keep doing, adjusting the steps, until we succeed.

Dr. St. John talked about one of the main reasons most people fail.

He gave an illustration. Suppose you purchased a picture and wanted to hang it in you home. You fund a nail and were already to insert the nail into the wall, but you needed a tool, which you asked for. Your friend hands you a chainsaw, which is definitely not a usable tool for that job.

That is why most people fail. They did not have the right tool.

We cannot solve a “why” problem with a “how to” solution. In his opinion most self help books and suggestions are of no use. They have not defined the “why” action which is needed before offering a solution.

My view is that the Polaris system defines the why and then offers the solution. “Wealth is an inside job”.

Most of the people we encounter in the real world fit the following profile:

1. They are living in a fog. They cannot clearly state what they want or the reason they are in their present state.
2. They are on a tread mill going nowhere very fast, and cannot get off it.
3. They feel like a failure, because they are continually looking at the past.
4. They keep trying the same old solutions that have brought them to where they are now. They persist in doing what they have always done.

Many of these people use the traditional affirmation which brings no results.  He used the common affirmation “I am rich”. Of course the result is that the subconscious mind pipes up “You are not rich, why lie to yourself” We do not believe what we say, so the universe cannot supply our desires.

Dr. St. John suggests it be reformed (afformation) into a question” Why am I so rich”

This gets the subconscious mind on empowering us as Rich. It searches

for a positive answer.

The final phase in getting your foot of the brake is as follows:

1. Forgive your past
2. Appreciate (raise the value) your present.
3. Set into your best future.

If you want to dig deeper into Dr. St.John’s work, get a copy of his book,

Alvan,

Happy Saturday!
(Every day is Saturday, right?)

In the spirit of the
greatest day of the week,
I wanted to share with you
this inspiring story

By the way, this story
has the potential of making
you a bucket load of money.

Listen carefully:

A woman living in downtown Ontario, Canada
came out of her house and saw
3 old men with long white beards
sitting in her front yard.

She did not recognize them.

She said “I don’t think I know you,
but you must be hungry.
Please come in and have something to eat.”

“Is the man of the house home?” they asked.

“No”, she replied. “He’s out.”  

“Then we cannot come in”, they replied.

In the evening when her husband came home,
she told him what had happened.

“Go tell them I am home and invite them in!”

The woman went out and invited the men in.

“We do not go into a house together,” they replied.

“Why is that?” she asked.

One of the old men explained:
“His name is Wealth,” he said pointing
to one of his friends, and said pointing to another one,

“He is Success, and I am Love.” Then he added,
“Now go in and discuss with your
 husband which one of us you want in your home.”

The woman went in and told
 her husband what was said.

Her husband was overjoyed.
“How nice!” he said. “Since that’s the case,
let’s invite Wealth.
Let him come and fill our home with wealth!”

His wife disagreed.
“My dear, why don’t we invite Success?”

Their daughter was listening from
the other corner of the house.
She jumped in with her own suggestion:
“Would it not be better to invite Love?
Our home will then be filled with love!”

“Let us heed our daughter’s advice,” said the husband to his wife.

“Go out and invite Love to be our guest.”

The woman went out and asked the 3 old men,
 ”Which one of you is Love?
Please come in and be our guest.”

Love got up and started walking
toward the house. The other 2 also got up
 and followed him. Surprised, the lady asked
 Wealth and Success:
“I only invited Love, why are you coming in?”

The old men replied together:
“If you had invited Wealth or Success,
the other two of us would’ve stayed out,
but since you invited Love, wherever he goes,
we go with him. Wherever there is Love,
there is also Wealth and Success!”

I heard that story from an
amazing friend of mine, Bob Proctor.

Six Minutes To Success

He went on and told me this:
“Most people don’t have wealth or
success in their lives and that’s probably
 because they don’t know how to love.  
Whether you want just wealth,
success or love in your life…I can help you achieve it.”

I believe in Bob Proctor 100%.
He has helped me achieve great success in life,
and he can help you too.
But there’s one condition…

You’ve got to give him 6 minutes
 of your life everyday till the day
he helps you achieve your goals.
 Is that a deal?  

As a first step, go to this website
and watch the video right now:
Six Minutes To Success

Make sure you watch all the way through to the end.  
There is a HUGE bonus at the end.

Today, I’ll talk with you about the great teacher’s command.” Know yourself”

An interesting challenge, which few of us every really consider.

I have a buddy, named Tiger. He is a Jack Russell terrier pup. I honestly believe he is a mind reader and psychic.  A few night s ago, he decided to get me up so he might show me something in the back yard while he went about his business.

He wanted to show me the night sky. We live very close to the north shore of eastern Lake Ontario. We have no street lights to reduce the darkness.

The sky to the east was clear blue with stars almost as bright as the sun. Many of them were really brilliant against the dark back ground. I stood in awe at the incredible sight.

Then I looked slightly to the west, and it appeared that some one had drawn a dividing line across the sky and taken an eraser and scrubbed everything out of the universe. It was black and lifeless.

My thought was isn’t that just like we humans. We look out and see the bleakness of a situation, and then turn our minds just a degree to the left and there is the most beautiful world possible right in front of us. It is ours just for the asking. Most of us never get the abundance and wealth promised because we do not ASK.

If we knew ourselves, knew our innate power to received, we would not hesitate to ask.

We would already be enjoying WEALTH.

If we knew ourselves, we would be living on PURPOSE.

Many years ago, I was associated with a company whose President would ask everyone every morning.” Are you on purpose today?”, and, “Is the company on purpose today?”

In all honesty, most people do not know what their purpose is so they cannot say whether they are or are not on purpose.

Two very successful business leaders, John Lavenia and Shane Krider, have used the phrase recently “ Keep the main thing the main thing” I originally learned the phrase as” The thing is not the thing, the thing behind the thing, is the thing” In other word. “Be on purpose”

Here is an exercise which can help determine your “On Purpose”

Most people have 5 or 6 segments to their daily life: career, financial, health,

family, spiritual, etc. These are the various segments to your “WEALTH”

So take some lined paper and head up a page for each one of your segments.

Start listing your wants, wishes, desires on each. Place the first one at the top of the page, the second at the bottom and continue up and down until you have covered every one in each segment. Fill the page and if needed start a second.

To determine what we like best, we must measure it against something we maybe do not want. We would not know “light” if there was not darkness. We would not know “hot” it there was not cold. Etc.etc.

The next step is like a tennis tournament. Two players are matched up. The winner moves on to ply the winner of the other match ups. Finally one winner appears.

Suppose you start with your career segment, match up the number one with the number 25. You then ask the question, “Which of these is the more important to me?”

Keep the exercise going until you have just one important want/wish/desire in each of your segments.

The next step is to rate your segments against each other: result, your true “purpose”, your “Vision”, within your wealth.

In my experience, I found that getting into business was simply a step in my achieving

my Vision, a vision held consistently for 25 years, to assist young entrepreneurs in achieving their vision.

Of course we live in an environment which is constantly in change. So it is necessary to from time to time check your “purpose”

The great teacher from time to time tested his students by asking “Are you 100% committed to my message?”.  If not, then it is better to check out now as the road is narrow and challenging.

The same applies here. If you are not passionately following your Purpose/vision, then check out and go back to the masses. Or maybe you have not yet found it.

However, if you need a hand along the way, simply ask, seek for the knowledge needed, and we will walk the path together. Go to the website;

Looking forward to talking with you next week as we continue together.

Alvan, (and my shadow Tiger).

This week lets talk about “JOY” . fits into my theme that
“Wealth is an inside job.”

Do you have a plan that will increase your JOY?

I guess the place to start is to get a definition of JOY. One dictionary defines it as follows:
“The EMOTION of great delight, or happiness caused by something of exceptional good, or satisfying; Keen pleasure; Elation.”

I place joy as a key element of WEALTH.

My wife attends “Curves” faithfully and brought home their magazine. In it was an interesting article on “Happiness”.
The author suggests that approximately 50% of people are born “happy” Those people embrace everyone with a smile, they laugh easily and love life. The result of the people are responsible for the rest of it. They must work to achieve and maintain it. 10% is determined by circumstances and 405 is from hard work and motivation.

Why claim back you JOY? Psychology research has found that in general joyful people are:
- more successful
- enjoy stronger relationships
- get sick less often
- lead more hopeful lives
- bounce bad more readily from bad experiences.

All are major components of Wealth.

What are the qualities and character strengths of a happier life? Gratitude, optimism, curiosity, ability to give and receive love,and pursuit of meaningful goals.
Here is a strategy to strengthen your WEALTH:
1. Go for goals. The happiest people have clear-cut and meaningful goals, says Caroline Miller author of Creating Your Best Life. Goals, which are outside of your comfort zone, come from your own desires and interests that one can pursue with vigor. These people believe that they can find the resources to get the job done.
2. Move your body. Regular exercise is an antidepressant.
3. Make time to talk each day. Show real interest in what is going on in your circle of friends and loved ones.
4. Be more curious. When we are open to new experiences and relish the unknown, positive events linger and we extract more pleasure and meaning from them.
5. Spread kindness. Be a do-gooder. Go out of your way to give a kindness.
6. Count your blessings. Focusing on your blessings shift your thinking which results in the whole situation changing. Each morning write down at least 5 things for which you are extremely grateful that morning.
7. Silence your inner nag. How we talk to our selves can have a significant effect on how positive we feel. A simple different word can empower you and release energy-draining guilt.
8. Reconnect with a higher power. Reconnect with your Universal creator and spend 15 minutes a day in mediation. Write out the positive thoughts which come up during your meditation.
9. Live in the moment. Enjoy the wonderful feeling which psychologists call “flow”. Flow occurs when you are facing clear goals that you know how to achieve without thinking too much.
10. Savor life’s joy. Ask these questions: What do I see? What do I hear? What do I smell? What do I taste? What do I feel?

So bring JOY back into you WEALTH arena and get ready for an awesome LIFE.

Talk more soon as we journey to WEALTH. In the meantime, come visit my website and take a look at how to create a passive income so you can have time and money freedom which can really give you great JOY.

Many professionals tell us that we are Mind, Body and Spirit.
Most of us know a bit about the body which we live in. Many of us know
very little about the mind except many thousands of thought go through it
each day.

The spirit is a big unknown to almost everyone.

Where is the Spirit residing. Again, the professionals say “It’s in the Heart”.
The control center for each of us is “The Heart”.

Therefore by deduction, the path to Wealth is controlled by your heart.

Certain things are programmed into the heart. Like all the systems that
allow us to live, be healthy, to grow and become all that the Universe
desires us to be. Then as we grow, other factors get immersed into that system, what we see, what we hear and most importantly, what we speak. All of the above are the things that go on in our environment.

All of these create various habits of thought and actions.

The journey to wealth is under control of the Heart. It has control over what happens, for good or bad, or more importantly, what we want to happen in our lives.

To ensure only good things coming to us, how do we reprogram the control systems of the Heart? Here are some thoughts to follow that can lead to wealth.

They are pleasant, effortless, and effective.
The first is Meditation.
Preparation:
The process is started by allotting a time in the day where one can be quiet and not be disturbed for at least 30 minutes. Habits are developed by doing something every day at the same time.
Initially ask the Universe “ What is my path and where am I to go?”.
Meditate:
Meditation is the act of allowing your thoughts to open up as they come into your mind. As they come, have a verbal discussion with the Universe as to how you feel and react to those thoughts, and then expand them. Visualize what this means, what things would look like if you were to follow the thoughts. Flesh out the ideas as how they would work for you. Put yourself into the picture that is in your mind. What would the end results be like? How would you feel as a result when you get that picture?
A secret is to then, thank the Universe that what you have is now ready for you.
Understand:
Part of the rebuilding the program in your heart is to understand what is havening. A new habit of thought is growing from a seed planted by the Universe. That seed must be fed and watered every day. And as you play your meditation process every day, seeing yourself in the picture and the end of the picture, a new heart is growing within you.

This new heart is like a new person inside you and you are building a relationship with him/her. Your belief level will rise to the heights as you now know for yourself that all things are possible.
Wealth:
The place of wealth is a place of calmness, stress free and no need to struggle. You must continue in agreement with the Universe while your heart is growing. The Universe will now give to you your every desire.
You are in complete control. You are at cause and fully responsible for the events that follow.

As the great teacher said,” you have not because you ask not, seek and you will find, knock and the door will be opened.”

The road to Wealth is in your heart. Nurture it and enjoy it.

I am helping others along their path. Come on over to my website and find
out more about our Wealth Building process.

It’s been nice chatting with you, see you again soon.

Here’s the note from Mike Dillard

Here’s The Secret Software I Used To Build

 My Online Empire… (And It’s Free!)

Ok Alvan H., as promised I’m going to reveal the secret weapon I use on a daily basis to achieve incredible results in business.
It’s a piece of software that has built my entire little empire brick-by-brick, day-by-day…
It’s not DreamWeaver, Outlook, Front Page, 1ShoppingCart, or an auto-responder.
No… I’m afraid to say that it’s just as lame, and yet just as important as the secret I revealed yesterday.
When I look out across this industry, I see two kinds of people…
Those who have made “execution” a daily habit, and those who have not.

Here’s what I mean by that…
Many close friends and associates have noticed that I’ve acquired one particular trait over the years which has enabled me to achieve some incredible things.
It’s not that I’m smarter than anyone else, or that I’ve had better opportunities, or that I’ve had more money to start with, (which was definitively not the case).
They all say it comes down to one thing… “Mike, what makes you different than everyone else out there is that once you have an idea, you actually sit down and do it”.
To be honest, that never really occurred to me, and it made me stop and really think.
I just took it for granted that if you have a great idea, you freaking do it right?
But most people don’t. They have an incredible idea and think about doing it. Day’s go by. Weeks go by. Months go by. Before they realize it, they’re still sitting in the same position they were a year before.
I don’t think about things, I do them.
I have an idea, and I execute that idea one little step at a time, each and every day until the project is complete.

Success is not a destination, it’s the result of a pattern of habitual behaviors.
That’s why you can take someone who’s had a track record in one field, and move them to another with the expectation that success will be achieved again.
It’s not the job, the business opportunity, the new marketing system, or the product that resulted in their success… It was their daily habits. They were “do-ers”.
There are successful people and unsuccessful people in every company – all using the same tools, the same websites, and the same system.
The difference is found in their daily habits.
So how you can you transition from a “thinker”, to a “do-er”?
Well that’s where my little secret software weapon comes into play. This little gem has been crucial in creating my habitual pattern of getting things done, producing millions in revenue in the process.
It’s called “WordPad”.
Also known as NotePad or TextEdit for Mac users, it’s that little program that opens up to a blank white page and just stares at you with a blinking cursor at the top.
You write text in it. That’s all. It doesn’t do anything what-so-ever, or even check your spelling.
Yes I know… Another big let down just like yesterday right?
Well here’s why this program is so valuable to you… It’s your new boss.
Every night before I go to bed, I pull up my Word Pad file which I save as “To-Do.txt”, and I write down five tasks that I must complete the following day in order of importance.
For example, here’s my actual “To Do List” for today:
To Do List:
1: Write and send newsletter.
2: Update Ad campaign.
3: Run new headline split-test.
4: Finish Chapter 4 in.
5: Return prospect phone calls and emails.
6: Read a book.
Now here’s what’s so magical about this process…
If you make your list the night before, you’ll subconscious will have all night to think about it.
The moment you wake up, you’re on task. You already know what your goals for the day are. You’re focused, and by starting your day with this focus and this purpose that’s already laid out for you, it allows you to ignore the onslaught of distractions that come with each new morning.
You’ll find that if you don’t have your To-Do List waiting for you in the morning, that you’ll get side-tracked immediately. Life happens. It gets in the way.

And unless you take back that control and focus, it will prevent you from accomplishing anything. This is the deadly trap you must avoid at all costs that’s preventing you from achieving the results you want.
Above all other things, this little process of creating my To-Do List each night using nothing more than Word Pad, as allowed me to create the Magnetic Sponsoring empire.
The most sophisticated and effective marketing system in the industry was created one step at a time by my little Word Pad file.
And here’s my challenge to you…
Make a commitment to use my method for 30 days, starting tonight. Before you go to bed, make your list of 5 tasks that you MUST complete by the end of the next day.
They must be actions “tasks”, not goals.
If you do the tasks, your goals will be accomplished automatically.
Don’t put…
1: Sponsor a new rep
2: Get a new customer
3: Read a book
4: Etc…
If sponsoring a new rep or getting a new customer is the goal, focus on the tasks that will result in that goal like producing 20 new leads, and contacting previous prospects.
1: Send out a press release.
2: Send a newsletter to my list.
4: Talk to at least 5 prospects.
5: Read Chapter 3 in “ Beyond/Freedom”.
If you do this without fail for 30 days, you’ll be a completely different person, and you’ll have made more progress in one month, than you have in the past 12.

This is EXACTLY how you execute traffic building methods for maximum results.

Thank you for your leadership,

Mike Dillard

I recently received an email from Dr. Van K. Tharp titled

“Gain Financial Freedom, Learn how to become Infinitely Wealthy”. Come to his money workshop and follow his model for the wealth process.

Dr. Tharp had carried out a small survey among stock market traders asking them if they were “wealthy”. All of the respondents replied that they would need “ten times as much money” as they then had to be wealthy in their mind.

In their mind, wealth equated money. This started him thinking about the concept of “wealth” and that it perhaps had nothing to do with how much money one had.

Perhaps, it really has to do with freedom, and the ability not to work.

About the same time he was introduced to Robert Kiyosaki’s money game “Cashflow 101”.He says he was stunned by many new things that he had never thought of before. This resulted in a new mind-set of abundance resulting in his becoming “infinitely wealthy”

Think on this:

If you stopped working today, and kept your current standard of living, how many months could you survive? Most people could last maybe 45 days.

How much money does the average person have at retirement? Surveys report $2,300.00 after a life time of effort.

Do you feel as if you are on a treadmill?  Economic professionals report that the US dollar in 1950 provided a lifestyle the same as 2009.

And on top of that, you may never see a dollar from all of the social security program benefits promised by our Governments.

For persons who want to change, to take responsibility for their future, we have a system that can lead people to Wealth Unlimited.

1. Make a firm decision that you will achieve Wealth Unlimited. This requires a mind-set of abundance. That you will no longer rely on someone else to provide your wealth.
2. Take steps to reduce your expenses. Decide where your priorities are in relation to a plan leading to Wealth.
3. Develop additional streams of income. Pay yourself first and allow that money to accumulate.
4. Invest your accumulated saving to create passive income. This is an incredible way to build Wealth Unlimited.
5. Once you have achieved infinite Wealth, adjust your lifestyle accordingly. Bring some luxury into your life.

The above techniques and procedures are very simple.

Visit our website

You will find there the tools to create additional streams of income which may develop into passive residual income. Also, check out the products and tools which can help in developing a mind-set of abundance and leadership.

The choice is yours. We are here to assist you on your journey.

Until we meet again, here’s to Wealth Unlimited.
