The SHIFT-We The Change

  I came across something today very exciting and wanted to share it with you straight away. In my efforts to stumbleupon great content as I do, this was one of my most exciting finds!

We The Change is a fantastic blog by Todd Goldfarb and is inspiring, informational and insightful. He's got lots to share and I would suggest you visit his blog immediately.

He's also a producer of a new movie coming out that looks to have all the makings of something incredible called The SHIFT. When you watch this trailer you will realize that you are definitely a part of this shift.

A good friend of mine and overall successor in life told me once that you have to have big arms. He said you can tell a lot about a person by the size of their problems they have. He chooses to  have big problems and  come up with  big solutions to them.

This movie and Todd's blog are tackling big problems through the collective consciousness.

Wow.

I thought long and hard about that just after reading his blog today.

My good friend Saiful over at Saif Improvement I noticed, had also commented on We The Change before I had commented. small world my friend ;-)

It all leads me to believe out of all the sites I could have stumbled upon that We The Change was the one and out of only 23 comments on the blog my friend Saiful had commented on it haha.

There are no accidents in life my friends.

I'm not sure where exactly this leads me except that I am leaving myself open to inspiration right now.

When I do that I notice changes that I may not have made had I consciously forced them.

Stay tuned to see.

Meanwhile please go visit Todd's blog now and then view the movie trailer The Shift. You will be inspired I promise!

Problems in Paradise...

 It seems that if you don't know who Mark Joyner is of Simple-ology then you may not realize he's one of the fore fathers of internet marketing and studier of human behavior. He sold the very first ebook on the internet. EVER.

Well my friend over at Saif Improvement has taken him head on as crazy as that sounds. He's challenged Mr. Joyner on one of his elements of Simple-ology and I have to tell you I'm brimming with excitement right now...

He not only challenges Mr. Joyner but he actually makes a lot of sense! How did I learn about this?

Well Saiful sent me a "leaked chapter" of his new ebook "The Law of Attraction On Steroids" that he'll be releasing soon and I have to tell you it's POWERFUL.

I'm going to give you access to this "Leaked Chapter" so you can see for yourself how much sense he makes and all you have to do is email me at the end of this post.

It seems that he has taken some advice and is putting together this incredible new ebook and he will be charging for it. I seriously told him he should be charging for the ebook that he gives away for Free now at his blog.  (Plus he gives away over $500 worth of FREE bonuses along with it when you subscribe for it!)

Well I've got the leaked chapter and I want you to take a look at it and see if you think it's as incredible as I do.

• In it you will find one question alone that will have you staying up at night, (like I did last night) thinking of all of the new possibilities available to you.

• You'll see this controversial element that he challenges Mark Joyner on and why it makes so much sense. There is even video on the theory that he challenges Mark on by Al Pacino!

• He actually gives you a 5 step formula that you can use RIGHT NOW to make powerful change happen in your life and even destroy those competing beliefs that keep you locked into old behaviors. (I can't believe where he got these steps from and he's the only person in the world applying these steps.)
   

Here is all you have to do. Email me at empower4life05(at)yahoo(dot)com and in the subject line simply write, "Yes give me the leaked chapter!"

I'm telling you if this is just the leaked chapter I can't wait to see what the entire book is because I got ton's of value from just it.

The Law of Attraction on Steroids is going to be a huge success and you should get your "leaked chapter" now.

Email For The Heart In The World of Web 2.0

I wanted to share with you an excerpt of an amazing email I got last week from one of our readers. I was tearing up towards the beginning of the email and crying tears of joy by the end of it.

I told you I get some pretty amazing emails from readers and this is none the less, one of them. Please be sure to read all the way to the bottom. I need your help when your done.

You're right, I've been living in quiet desperation, non conscious of my  union with divinity, lost and bound by my own mind.

As a child, our concept of reality comes primarily from values and actions of our parents. What they say becomes truth, what they demand  becomes our understanding as law, and we believe how they treat us is love.

Whooo, no wonder I couldn't love anyone or allow anyone to love me.

What I knew of love was highly dysfunctional. You were right again, I did have competing intentions in all area's of my life.

I wanted success, I wanted love but I was unable to receive it. All of my decisions and actions have not supported my goals for myself but were truly congruent with how I saw myself  deep down inside.

Truth is when I did what you said ,  (Closed my eyes and tried to picture my home business in five years and even myself being free from all that has held me back) I couldn't it see it clearly.

I am incredibly grateful for these recent discoveries that I now realize have been unfolding  since the  change of my relationship with (name withheld), probably even sooner.  (It reminds me of the foot print story-Just when I need God the most, but only saw one  set of foot of foot prints, it was then when he was carrying me.

Have I mastered this entity called the painbody? Nope, not yet. I know bad days will arise and I will seek out the painbody unconsciously, but I have been given the gift of awareness which can only co-exist with unconsciousness for so long. As Tolle puts it, "The painbody finds awareness quite indigestible." I know i will be o.k.

When the student is ready, the teachers will appear. I'm not sure which of those role's I held after I read this readers message. (This was only part of the email) My heart was touched for them and by them.

Network marketing can be so much more than a business, it's a way of life and even more importantly a road to personal discovery and mastery.

Unlike traditional corporate America, where you can hide behind paper work, tasks, to do lists and upper management or a boss telling you what your duties are, (because you're not willing to take on that responsibility) In network marketing and the free enterprise system you have no choice to live authentically, remain vulnerable & commit to self improvement daily in order to lead others effectively to their own awareness.

Yes there are the how to's don't worry. Realize the masses are looking to be lead. Leaders make more than followers because they are willing to go through the work and pay the price to reach awareness much like the reader is doing through their story above.

It's not easy.

Are you strong enough and willing enough to challenge your current beliefs?

Have you become aware enough through this post to reason with yourself that the rules of which you govern yourself by daily are not getting you the results you desire in your life today?

This work is the road less traveled but is the road most rewarding.

Receiving an email like the one above feels amazing. Although I couldn't share it all with you I can tell you being a bridge to someones awareness is unlike anything I could have imagined it would be. Although it has never been my intention to gain the emotional rewards but I admit it's great :-)   

Will you be that for someone in your life & in your business?

I dare you.

No, I triple dog dare you. ;-}   

P.S. Here is where your help is need. If you would like share with me your insights and explorations from that you gain from this blog that are geared towards personal reflection and growth feel free to email them to me at: empower4life05 (at) yahoo (dot) com so that I may share it's inspiration with other readers.

P.P.S. If you choose your name and information will remain anonymous.

Passion Vs. Profit -3 Things to Ask Yourself

  Yesterday I mentioned that I was going to write about how to get yourself back in the hot seat with your business if you're not feeling it like you used to. If this doesn't pertain to yourself personally I highly recommend you read it so you know how to coach your challenged team members through it..

So let's get to it.

You see one of the reasons I work from home is the freedom it gives me. The idea of working from the same cubicle day in and day out is absolutely scary to me. The idea of going into the same setting day in day out is absolutely petrifying.

I work from the comfort of home and if I choose to change my scenery I can certainly do so at will. I have a wireless card and a cell phone that has unlimited and nationwide minutes so I can literally do my business anywhere in the U.S.

I like that freedom and it was worth fighting for in the beginning and disciplining myself still today.

That kind of freedom is what's in it for me. I'll explain what that is so important in a minute.

As you begin to read this, through my story, I want you to find your why.

Your reason for choosing your vehicle is maybe different or it isn't. I originally was a customer of the services that I still market 8 years later. I didn't initially see the marketing side of it though.

Matter of fact I loved the company's services except for the "pyramid part." Seriously I said that haha.

I still laugh when I say it.

So the services was my first love. Making money with it came  2nd. The mission or vision actually came 3rd as I realized that making money should be a by product of the passion for the service and mission.

There is a fine line between focusing on your network marketing business being profitable and staying passionate about it as well.

Passion vs profit in business to some people is like saying which came first, the chicken or the egg?

Many traditional business owners will tell you that profit is the reason you start a business and I believe that works from some people, however a person has to buy into what they are marketing period and be passionate about it. There must be a passion for the product or services for longevity in your business.

Unlike a traditional business, you're not looking for a niche to start  a business. A good network marketing company has already done that research and has identified the niche to be profitable. The question is are you passionate about that niche, the market niches need and the product or service that fills that need?

Listen you must reevaluate your mental position on your companies products, services and mission if you find yourself not as passionate about what you're doing.

Here are 3 things to ask yourself when reevaluating your position:

1. Are you having a good experience with your companies products or services still?
2. Are you clear on your companies mission or vision?
3. Have you bought into your companies mission or vision and come to understand what's in it for you?

Chances are, if you're not having a good experience with your services or products you're heading on a downward slope and fast. There is a good quote that showed up in my in box this morning that explains this well.

"The mind can't take you where the heart longs to go."-Debbie Ford, Author

You may be able to make a logical decision about business but your heart will tell you if it feels correct or not. How do you feel about your companies services or products and do you believe in them like you once did?

If you're not clear on your company's vision and if it doesn't align with your values then you have another issue. How do you over come this? Simple go back to step one and ask yourself how you feel about the services or products. If you feel that you're just as passionate about them as you once were then get clear again on the companies vision. People want to be a part of something and chances are if you're going to build a big team you want to convey that message that they will be.

After steps 1 and 2 ask yourself do you realize what's in it for you? Are you clear on what the profitability is going to do for you and your family?  Are you clear on what you will spend your profits on and what will that mean to you?

These are some questions you will need to ask yourself before you move on.

Clarity is a wonderful thing.

   

 

What Do You Do After Your Thoughts are Postive?

  When working for yourself have you ever wondered why only 2% of the population can work unsupervised? 

Shouldn't you ask yourself what are they doing that your not?

I'm going to give you 3 words that answer that question in just a second. 

That means only 2% of the population have the ability to govern themselves accordingly and discipline themselves so that that they meet their desired goals and ambitions.

Not a big number but also not really surprising that 90% of the worlds wealth is controlled by 3% of the population. 

So the question is, how do you become self sufficient and able to consistently operate like the top 2%?

You think positive, you listen and read positive things, and you surround yourself by positive people.

Well then what, right?

Well lets take a look at a quote from the book "The Science of Getting Rich" by Wallace D Wattles:

"Every act can be made strong and effective by holding your vision while you are doing it and by putting the whole power of your faith and purpose into it."

Yes, it got my attention too.

You may want to reread it  to really grasp it.

A.L. Williams said the same thing when he built a working network marketing force of well over 200,000 strong and built the largest life insurance company in the world, surpassing over 300 Billion dollars of active life insurance at one time. A record that today still stands today, and many years later, unbroken.

He had a vision, started doing it and put his whole power of faith and purpose into it.

He also got others to buy into his vision and excitement, empowered them with what was in it for them if they did and grew his corporation with the cooperation of others.

Here are those 3 words that explain why the 2% can work unsupervised.. 

Vision, passion and purpose.

I personally don't like the idea of being "dead weight" nor is it something I believe you should focus on. Focus on your vision, your passion and your purpose and you will take persistent and consistent action day in and day out.

The home business or network marketing company you're with, at one point empowered your thoughts and drove you to take inspired action.

If you're still there, good. You know what I'm talking about.

If you're not then we'll talk about that tomorrow and what steps you can take to get back to that place or even find it in the first place.

Till then.
