Wow... I am in a little bit of shock that it has been nearly a year since I have posted a blog. I guess I have not had anything important to say for a while, or have I?
Over the past year I have read numerous books, attended numerous conferences, listened to hours of motivational CD's, all the time looking and searching for my true meaning of life. My son said to me one day, "Mom, I figured out the true meaning of life... to find YOUR true meaning of life." Holy crap... He is so right. I have been looking for something and now I realized it was my true meaning of life and I didn't even know it. The meaning of life is different for everyone... and therefore the message is always different for all of us.
It is not important from whom the message is spoken... What is important, is that YOU hear the message.
Let's just say the message appears out of nowhere and then it is gone. You barely hear a whisper of it in the breeze, and before you can wrap a thought around it, it is gone. Subconsciously we dismiss it before we hear it. The message is spoken in passing, dismissed yet again. Over and over the message is spoken; only to fall on deaf ears. It has been spoken by friends, relatives, and in some cases, complete strangers. I can't physically list all who delivered my message to me, but once I heard it I recognized that I had heard it before.
What is the message, you might ask, it is different for everyone. When you finally hear it you will know the very moment that you hear it... and not a moment before.
How do we decide to finally hear the message. For many of us it is in our last moment of sanity, perhaps our realization we have been on the wrong job path, in the wrong relationship, the list goes on and on. We have known it in our gut for a long time something is not right but the message never seemed to penetrate our shield. When ever you hear the message it will be at the perfect moment. This is exactly what I needed to hear.
Life's journey has brought me on a path of personal growth. I am grateful for all who have gone before me and have helped me, and I am thankful that I am able to help others do the same. Become a better YOU!
When you hear YOUR message... be ready, because it will be the ride of your life.
Cheers!

A Bit of a Rant... but so be it!
"Tapping The Source," By William Gladstone, Richard Greninger, and John Selby
"The most important principle to creating true wealth is to be of service to others. Good fortune smiles on those who appreciate their good fortune and who realize that their good fortune is not for their enjoyment alone, but for the betterment of the planet and of others."
Okay... so this morning my husband was telling me about a lady that sits on the board of directors with him, who had a stroke several weeks ago, she was told by the doctors that she will never improve from the state that she is in right now. She will need 24 hour care for the rest of her life. My heart immediately went out to her and her family. I have met her several times and I do have a relationship with her. I suggested perhaps I could get her family on the phone with Dr. Wallach. I thought that we may be able to help her with some of our products and possibly improve her current state of health... my husband told me that people think that "WE" just want to profit off of other people's illnesses and their miss fortune. Don't get me wrong... I understood he believes that is what people think... he knows why I got into this business and knows my passion for helping people but he also knows how people think... so I wanted to clarify this...
First of all if someone wants me to introduce them to people who were told by their doctors that this is it, this is all you will have and we can not hope for any improvement... I can show you people who now have great health because they did not listen to what the doctors told them. Doctors know a lot but they do not know everything... how could they? There is so much information and knowledge out there... I highly recommend that you do your own research like I did.
Like most parents I took my kids to the doctor several times a year for colds, infections and such, it was unavoidable, so I thought. The Dr. would give me prescriptions to fill, products to buy and away I would go. I asked the doctor if there was anything I could do, what about vitamins, supplements? He said they would not help as long as my kids were eating well they would not need them. However, I never thought for one second that the doctors and pharmacies wanted to keep my family sick so they could profit off of me and my family. Why would I think that! But, now I have a different idea about doctors and health care. More to come on my BlogTalkradio show... The New HealthCare Revolution. (Don't get me wrong doctors can do amazing things.) I also think that doctors are in the business to make money just like the rest of us!
My son is an athlete and I started hearing about athletes dropping dead because of nutritional deficiencies after hard workouts. I watched kids prepare to get on the ice with a candy bar in one hand and soda in the other. Once your kid is a teenager we have very little control about what they eat. So how do we know if they are eating healthy. I did some research and through a good friend (I am now in business with) who is a personal fitness trainer, I started my son on supplements and while he has had a cold here and there I just have him double up on the supplements for a while and it goes away. He hasn't been to the doctor in years for sickness and my daughter swears by supplements now and so do I. I feel so much better as a mom giving supplements to my family.
My sister was diagnosed with RA several months ago and fully accepted her roll as a person with RA. She lost her job and could not work because of the pain. She was ready to be on pain killers for the rest of her life and go through physical therapy and accept her fate. I love my sister and the last thing that I wanted was to see her suffer. She spoke with our very own Dr. Wallach on the phone, started on our products and within 3 weeks had amazing results. She feels so good she forgets she was diagnosed with RA and she has her life back. She has joined me in this business and immediately started thinking about people she loves and cares about and ways she could help them. I love my sister and why would I not want her to have an amazing life too.
Why is it okay for doctors, hospitals, and pharmacies to profit from our illnesses and we don't think twice about it. However, as soon as a friend or family member who truly cares about your quality of life and your health mentions about buying a supplement from them suddenly they are profit mongers and just want to take advantage of you. Why on God's earth would I want to do that. When I am a millionaire I will buy your products for you so you have better health and a better quality of life... all I ask now is that you trust me as someone who loves you and cares about you. That is why I got into this business in the first place.
I am not asking you to get sick so I can make a profit off of you purchasing products from me. Heck, I don't want you to buy products from me, buy them from one of my other distributors if you don't want to help me, but get your quality of life back or better yet... don't get sick. Think of supplements as a preventative maintenance program for the future. Just like health insurance, life insurance and your retirement... oh ya those people make profits off of you too! Or, we can choose to do nothing, keep our heads in the sand, suffer the consequences and spend our retirement years in assisted living. These people around you will make a hell of a lot more money than I will from your illness. Doctors retire and travel around the world, hospitals build new wings to support diabetics, and fat farms profit from obesity... and remember they are doing this because they want YOU to have a better quality of life because they love and care about you.
So, if I approach you and you are a friend, a relative or in some cases someone I just met... I may talk to you about nutrition and supplements if you tell me you are not feeling well or have an illness you are struggling with. If you tell me that you hate your job or wish you could make more money I may mention a business opportunity that I have because it may help you reach your dreams... but never think I am trying to take advantage of you because you are sick, have an illness or have dreams of a better life... I did not contribute to your current state I am only offering solutions to a problem. But, if you have everything you need, you are healthy as a horse and love your job then I will still love and care about you and be happy for you!
I am in this business because I care about my family, my team and the overall wellness and prosperity of the world and if I make money so I can support my family that I love and give back to people I care about... then so be it.
"Live Long and Prosper." By the way you can buy t-shirts with LLAP on them from Leonard Nimoy who I know cares about you personally and wants you to Live Long and Prosper! I love Leonard and I love what this stands for.
Thanks for reading!

A Story of Love and Loss and No Regrets!
Wow... I had this idea to dedicate my January blog to my Mom and my first husband who died way to young. But, what I didn't realize was just how hard this would be. Ironically my Mom and my first husband died on the same day, January 23, 26 years apart. It is interesting how life takes us on so many different paths along Life's Journey.
I met my first husband while I was in college in Texas and eventually moved to Grand Island, NE. Everyone that meets me always asks me how I ended up in Grand Island from the Dallas area and I always say... "Ya, because God knows you would only move to Grand Island, NE for love." I did not realize just how profound that statement really was... the part about love. And so my story begins...
I was working in a pizza place and before I ever knew his name I knew that the tall blond wearing the red jacket was going to ask me out. Jerry and his buddy came in two or three times a week and always sat in my section. I even told one of my fellow co-worker's that he was going to ask me out and sure enough he did.
He worked on a ranch training Quarter horses... you know the very expensive kind. While he loved the job it did not pay very much, actually nothing, but it was about the experience. After several moths of dating he eventually decided he needed a paying job and he had been offered a position at the Post Office in Grand Island, so he took it. After a long discussion we decided he would move back Grand Island and I would save up enough money to move there as well. After nine months of being separated I quite my very good paying job in Dallas and moved to GI to join him. I arrived in May, 1977 and he was working 3 jobs. I got a job too and we hardly saw each other. The following October he was diagnosed with cancer. The day he got the call from the doctors office explaining that he had to have his leg amputated was the same day he had already decided to ask me to marry him. He proposed and then we both sat on the floor in his dinning room and cried. We loved each other so much and knew we wanted to be together no matter what. You see, we fell in love on our first date and while a lot of people say that doesn't happen, I'm here to tell you that it does.
The next year was a blur of exciting moments preparing for the wedding and many sad moments in and out of hospitals. On October 7, 1978 we were married. It was a bitter sweet wedding day as Jerry was very ill the night before and the doctors wanted him to go to the hospital but he refused. If his fever had raised ever so slightly we would have no choice but to take him to the hospital immediately. His temperature held that evening and I attend the rehearsal by my self and finished up the preparations for the following day.
Jerry managed to make it through the wedding on his crutches. His artificial leg had not arrived as promised and Jerry stood before his friends and family without a leg, something he did not want to do. It was difficult to watch his 6'4" frame ever so fragile. Some how part of the wedding ceremony had been missed but it was perfect because Jerry couldn't have stood much longer on his own. We walked down the aisle as Mr. and Mrs. Jerry Miller.
The following few months were a continuation of hospital visits, only now there was nothing exciting to talk about. Eventually the day came when the doctor's had to give us the bad news... there was nothing more they could do.
The days that followed were us telling each other how much we loved each other. We talked about the future for me that did not include him and I cried. He knew these conversations were important, at the time I did not want to hear them but he knew that I had to. He released me to move on, to love again and to be happy. What a brave soul he was and I love him for that. I did not know how I would ever be happy again without him being a part of my life but he knew that I could be.
On January 23, 1979 I sat in a hospital room with the first love of my life and watched his heart beat begin to slow and minute by minute eventually it stopped. It was the most profound moment in my life. Everyone left the room and there I stood over his bed and kissed him goodbye. And who knew that exactly 26 years later I would watch nearly the same scenario with my Mom on the very same day.
My Mom was an amazing women and as for most of us it took me a life time to realize that. I look back at what my life was like growing up and now as an adult I can only imagine what it was like to be my Mom. Two marriages and 5 children between them both and one lost sister/daughter at 19... way too young. Love and miss you Sharon.
When my Mom was young she was recognized for a very unique talent... she could toe tap in ballet shoes on her toes. I decided to dedicate my blog to my Mom too and I wanted to write about her dancing. I called my brothers and sister and my Mom's best friend Mary. Ironically everyone had a different memory about my Mom's dancing. I guess it depended who you were hearing it from so I took what everyone told me and here is what I came up with...
My Mom grew up in Hackensack, NJ in the early 1900's. She was about 3 years old when she awoke from a nap one day only to find her right leg paralyzed. We remember seeing photos of my mom with her leg in a brace and eventually photos of her standing while my Grandma held her up. Miraculously her leg got the feeling back.
The doctors recommend that my Grandma should start her in ballet to strengthen her now very weak leg. My Mom loved to dance and excelled in it. As she got older she perfected tap dancing in ballet shoes, something that was not heard of back in the day. They had a special metal cup made to fit on the toe of her ballet shoes. Ya, no kidding. It makes my feet hurt just thinking about it. I remember her telling me part of the story about her dancing in between boxing fights and eventually an article was written about her unique talent. Someone told me that they heard that she had been offered a job in California to dance.
We are not sure what happened but she never took the job. Some of us thought my Grandma put an end to that. My Mom lied about her age and married my dad only a few short weeks after meeting him... others say my Grandma wanted her to go to California and was upset that my Mom decided to get married instead. I also heard that my Mom just wanted to move out of the house and that was why everyone thought she got married so quickly. They have all passed now so I guess that we will never get the whole story but my Mom was a women that could do anything she put her mind to... you know a regular MacGyver. I see that now and I eventually matured enough to forgive her for all of what I thought were short comings. Eventually I cherished every moment we had together and I am so glad that I did.
Regrets... what I learned from my short time with Jerry is that you can not wait for tomorrow you have to go for it now. Jerry always wanted to snow ski and yet he never did. We wanted to get married right away but for some reason we waited. For my Mom... dance was her true love and for some reason none of us kids will ever understand why she gave it up. However, she always encouraged us to do what we wanted and to live our dreams no matter what. Maybe because she realized she had gave her's up and she did not want us to do the same.
So, Life's Journey continued as it does for all of us... I learned a lot in those few years... this is dedicated to Jerry who was one of the bravest men I ever knew at a very young age of 21 and to my Mom who would dance for us when we were kids and showed us how to live life.
Ironically Jerry's cousins introduced me to the second love of my life, Ken, my husband now, of nearly 28 years. And while it was not love at first sight it is as deep and full as my short time with Jerry. Ken once said to me, "I think it was Jerry's destiny to bring me to him." "Ya, because God knows you would only move to Grand Island, NE for love."
I miss them all... Jerry, Sharon, and most of all the most amazing women I have ever known... my Mom!
Tell everyone you love them every day... love deep and full... and know that you are who you are because of all the times you have been touched by love along Life's Journey!
Be Well,
Marianne

The "Money Ripple" Mind Set... we all have!
I believe I had an epiphany this morning! Actually, I know I did. I was in the middle of having a conversation with my husband. He mentioned that they needed some help on a project. It was something that I could help them with and I knew they paid the other person to do it. Before I could offer he said they wanted to find someone to do it for FREE. Well, once he said the word FREE I knew I was not going to offer to help and my epiphany began... (Now don't get me wrong I do plenty of stuff for FREE and I believe in paying it forward but this is a little bit different. We can't go broke doing everything for FREE!)
I like FREE we all like FREE and we are all constantly looking for a great deal or something for FREE. When we get a great deal we can not wait to tell our friends. We are thrilled and they are thrilled too!
In business we may think we have to do something for FREE or discount our services. (Obviously we think if we discount something or do it for FREE when they have money they will come back and work with you... not so, I can speak from experience!) Because our mind set is such we figure if we found it for FREE before we can do it again and away we go... looking for the next something for FREE or a big discount.
Think about it, think about it hard... because what goes around comes around and you may not like what comes back around to you. Have you ever heard of the "money ripple." You know how when you toss a rock into the lake and it causes the water to ripple and the ripple goes on and on and runs into other ripples. Well, that is how the "money ripple" works. The problem is that our mind set is reversing the "money ripple." If we do this enough times the "money ripple" may never reach us. Our clients want discounts and we want discounts and we have always thought that was okay, in fact better than okay. What is happening to the "money ripple?" Your right... it is getting smaller, and smaller and in many cases it has completely disappeared. How is your "money ripple" doing?
We wonder why when we purchase something and it is crap. I guess we know why, but we don't consider that we the consumer has demanded it! No wonder the manufacturer has had to cut every corner, hire inexperienced employees, buy cheaper materials and the list goes on and on.
Our next thought is that the reason we need stuff for FREE or discounted is because we don't have the money to pay full price for something. Well, let us think about that. Really! Why is that?
How many of you like buying a car? My ideal situation would be to walk in, pick out the car of my choice and pay the full sticker price in cash! I feel relaxed just thinking about it. Most of us hate buying a car because we have to haggle the price, sit there and wait for the sales person to go back and forth... trying to get us into our dream care. Figure out if we are getting the best deal on our trade in.. I can tell you right now you are not. I am exhausted and a little pissed off just thinking about it. Our mind set is that we have to get the very best deal. If you told your best friend you did not haggle and you just paid the sticker price they would kick your butt!
However, this is where our mind set begins to get a little twisted. Let's say you get a great deal and you can't wait to show all your friends and family your new car, whoo hoo! What you don't realize is that the sales person who sold you the car gave up part of his commission (who cares it was just some car sales person and they are hardly human) and their kids Christmas is going to be a little smaller this year... the reverse "money ripple" begins. The dealership has discounted so many vehicles this month they can't order as many next month. The manufactures of the vehicles feels the reverse "money ripple" too. They are forced to cut back on materials they purchase. The "money ripple" continues to get smaller.
You are sitting in your office all excited about your new car and the great deal you got. Your boss walks into your office and explains how one of their largest customers just cut back on their future order. (Your company supplies vehicle manufactures). Your boss explains this is the third customer this month that cut back on their order, sales are down and your Christmas bonus just got cut in half for this year. Did you just feel that "reverse ripple" in effect!
Maybe your company has nothing to do with manufacturing cars but each person working for that company has buying power. When the reverse "money ripple" begins it touches all of us.
This may be a little bit dramatic but actually no so much! We can choose to push the "money ripple" out as far as it can go or to create what I am calling a reverse "money ripple."
Now don't get me wrong I have purchased many vehicles and I have worked my best deals with no remorse at all, but that is what I am saying... I had an epiphany. I am part of the reverse "money ripple" which is probably a vortex but I am not a science geek.
We need to think of ways to increase our income so we don't have to be a part of the reverse "money ripple." Strive to push that "money ripple" out as far as it can go! Be proud of it, share it and eventually the "money ripple" will touch us all!
Thanks for stopping by!
I wish you a magical journey in life.
I like FREE we all like FREE and we are all constantly looking for a great deal or something for FREE. When we get a great deal we can not wait to tell our friends. We are thrilled and they are thrilled too!
In business we may think we have to do something for FREE or discount our services. (Obviously we think if we discount something or do it for FREE when they have money they will come back and work with you... not so, I can speak from experience!) Because our mind set is such we figure if we found it for FREE before we can do it again and away we go... looking for the next something for FREE or a big discount.
Think about it, think about it hard... because what goes around comes around and you may not like what comes back around to you. Have you ever heard of the "money ripple." You know how when you toss a rock into the lake and it causes the water to ripple and the ripple goes on and on and runs into other ripples. Well, that is how the "money ripple" works. The problem is that our mind set is reversing the "money ripple." If we do this enough times the "money ripple" may never reach us. Our clients want discounts and we want discounts and we have always thought that was okay, in fact better than okay. What is happening to the "money ripple?" Your right... it is getting smaller, and smaller and in many cases it has completely disappeared. How is your "money ripple" doing?

10.10.10 Hockey Intense Parents Launches!
Today is the 10th day of October, 2010. Wow... what a day to celebrate. Not because the date is 10.10.10, but for the fact this date will signify for me the launch of www.HockeyIntenseParents.com.
This has been a passion of mine for the past 2 years. As I was reading Timothy Ferriss', "The 4-Hour Workweek," the question was asked... "What is the one goal, if completed, that could change everything?" At first it seemed very obvious and I wrote my goal down and continued on with my day. But, for some reason it did not really stir any emotion in me. I look for that, when I have a project or meet someone new, I look for the emotion... are the vibrations good, how does it make me feel. That kind of stuff is important for me. I went about my day, as it continued I read Tim's statement over and over again. I read it out loud to a few of my friends and then I realized the goal I wrote down earlier in the day would not change everything, because everything related to it was the same. The same thing that I had been doing and I realized that I had to do something different... I know again with the vagueness but you see this is not about my original goal, it is about the realization that is wasn't big enough. It would not change everything, it would have changed some things, but not everything... but this will.
Eventually it came to me.. I had to play it bigger, I had to reach out, dig deeper within me and there it was... my website, my social media website that would bring hockey parents together from across the country. I know, I can't keep you all to myself, that just wouldn't be fair.
I had never started this before because, I was not able to fit all the pieces together.. until now... thank you Tim Ferriss! Seriously "The 4-Hour Workweek" changed my life... more about that another day. So, it was easy now. I knew what I had to do and without hesitation I began the journey. My goal was to create a site that Hockey Parents could go to and find resources, brag about their kids, sell or give away all that gross used hockey gear stinking up the corner of their garage.. oh wait that is me.
My husband has joined me in contributing to HockeyIntenseParents and for that I am grateful, because he truly is the expert. However, he is does not type very fast and I could not wait for him. But, that is okay he will be a huge contributor via his blog and his support.
And, with all of my travels this summer, my son I met even more hockey parents that hungered for information and had something to share. The premise of the website continued to grow. It became a place for hockey parents to contribute however they want to.. they can talk about experiences, ask questions, offer up reviews on camps, coaches, associations they have been involved with and so on. What started out as a simple website idea grew into something that is living and breathing and will continue to grow.
But, what this is really about is my journey and what I accomplished just by putting my mind to it. I can not tell you how excited I was today as I sent out my first round of emails to may hockey friends and family. As I began my social media campaign for my own creation... it is a apart of me and a continuation of my Life's Journey.
Thanks for stopping by and thanks for the support. Hope you found something here that inspired you... get the book. Maybe it will change your life too....

What I learned from My Son this Summer!
I just pulled up my blog and I can not believe that it was over a year ago that I last wrote. What the heck have I been doing... well, the list is long and distinguished. Okay, maybe long, but not necessarily distinguished.
A few weeks ago I was a guest on "Home Based Business Live" with my partner in crime, Trish Hetherington. Click on her photo to see and here the show. I have to admit I enjoyed it very much. And, I hope to be able to do it again! Hint, hint! Actually, it was my second time on the show and both times were fun... if you ever get a chance to be a guest on a radio show, go for it!
I shared a little bit about my summer with my son on the show and it was such an inspirational time in my life I wanted to share it in more detail in my blog today.
This past summer was amazing traveling across the country with my son. My husband says I put over 5,000 miles on our car (he is the numbers guy) but doesn't take into account our flying miles.
As most of you know Riese is an ice hockey goalie and has aspired to play in the NHL since he was 5. Through the years you watch your child development and in the back of your mind you hope their dreams are fulfilled not matter what they are. The dream either becomes a passion or it fades away with time. No fading for us and so I guess we just have to join in.
At the end of the season last year Riese confessed that he wanted to go into the 2010 season playing JR hockey... what ever that meant. So, as the high school hockey season came to a close and high school was out for the summer the pursuit of JR hockey began.
What I want to share with you about my son was something that you rarely see in the everyday person... a never ending desire to accomplish his goal. I numbered them because each event there was a decision made and you can see how many decisions were decided upon over the few summer months.
1. He wanted to be in the JPS Show case here in Denver and we signed him up and paid the money and they never cashed the check and when the day came they announced who was on the list his name did not appear. Of course we were curious and we followed up with them. Riese was too young and the JR Teams were not looking for "93"' goalies. Hummm... do we tell him that and his goal is ended before it even started.
2. But, he really wanted to show his stuff so we called around to have a few of his coaches contact the JPS on his behalf and low and behold he was on the list. (Many times it is who you know!)
3. He went to JPS and had a great showing and was approached by several teams to come to camps and the owner of one team said that if Riese would show up he was on the team. Heck, we did not know any better so, we did a little research and flew to the East coast.
4. The coach never spoke never spoke to Riese or I off the ice and the last day we were there they basically offered him the 3rd goalie position and we kindly denied.
5. We sent Riese out to his goalie coach in LA. He spent several weeks on the ice and one day a player called a coach that he knew and the coach called Riese's goalie coach and before you knew it, we had 3 days to get him from CA to MN. With much deliberation we decided to fly him home and then him and I would drive through the night to get to MN early morning of the first day he was to be on the ice. Riese stood on his head and made a good showing. Made it to the All Star Game and then he was cut. He was very close to making it on the team. They are keeping an eye on him.
6. Next tryout was a few weeks away and Riese needed a rest but in two weeks we were on the road again and back to CA for yet another tryout. We arrive on a Sunday and for the next 5 days it was intense... two days of goalies and then he playing two games a day for 3 days. Wow, he gets cut.
7. We leave CA and head to OR for the next tryout. We are positive that this team is going to take Riese. They saw him at JPS and they offered him a Tender with the team and they even have someone call and interview him for an article on their website. We are so impressed and are sure this is where he will play his first season of JR hockey.
Before tryouts even start Riese has received some information that he is probably not going to make it on the team. As you can imagine, Ken and I are not only exhausted we are shocked. Oh, and I left Riese there with all his stuff. At this point we had no idea what to do. I asked Riese what happened... his reply was... Mom, I am not looking back, I am only looking forward, find me another team to tryout for.
Here is where I get a little teary eyed. Most of us would have given up on the 1st cut, or maybe the 3rd or 4th cut. Heck, even one of the coaches mentioned that he hoped Riese was not not discouraged... to Rise's face.
8. We packed him up, after he was officially cut from the team. He did not even make it to the All Star Game, yet another shock on our part.
9. Back to CA to work with his Goalie coach again and he went in front of yet another coach and team. It was way too expensive and so that did not work.
10. And with only a few weeks before the season was to start Riese headed to yet another tryout. He packed up his gear and a few days worth of clothes and jumped on a bus for a few hour trip. Three days later he managed to get a contract and the season is finally on it's way.
I learned a lot this summer traveling across the country with my 17 year old son... if it your dream, if is your passion, never, never, never give up... even when someone tells you that you are too young to play Junior's and you probably won't make it on a team.
In the hockey world you never know how long you will be on a JR team and they can trade you or cut you at the drop of a hat or if you are not playing well they may sit on the bench. But, when something means so much to you... and you have worked so hard do you throw it away because of a little set back. Do you sit on the side lines for a while and get better and then go for it again? Do you watch and learn.
I think of myself in business and look at what I have accomplished over the past year. Success comes in many different forms. Sometimes it comes in the fact that you know you are on the right path. It comes in the fact that you have surrounded yourself with the right people that are like minded. Or, it comes in the fact that you are doing something that you love. Everything else will come.
Hopefully this story will help you when you think about quitting or think that your dream or goal is out of reach. Hopefully if your dream or goal means that much to you... you will never, never, never give up!
I have read Several great books over the past year.
"Rich Dad Poor Dad," by Robert T. Kiyosaki
"Think and Grow Rich," by Napoleon Hill
"The Multi-Level Mangler in King Arthur's Court," by Greg Arnold
"The Energy Bus," by Jon Gordon
"The Richest Man in Babylon," by George S. Clason
And, I am currently reading "The 4-Hour Workweek," by Timothy Ferriss and this has changed my life and I am not even done yet!
I will be back soon... I am on a mission and you will soon figure it out if you stay tuned...

When Is the Right Time to do Anything! Right Now!
I am dedicating this blog to everyone that thinks they have missed the boat, made every mistake there is and has lost hope... I have realized that over the years my hopes and dreams slowly disappeared and not that long ago my life in general seemed like there was no hope. However, I am here to tell you that if you wish to, if you want to, YOU can change all of that, you can!
I am also here to tell you that it takes determination, passion, desire, consistency, but above all else you have to believe that YOU can do this... because if you do not believe in yourself the people around you will see that. And even though everyone seems to have good intentions many times the people closes to you, some of your closes friends and relatives for that fact are the ones who believe in you the least. You may find the person that you have confided in for years is happier to see you low then they are to see you at the top. Be ready to start to see your life in a very different way. I always told myself I was the most positive person that I knew, until I really got to know myself and then I was in shock! But that is okay, I am better now.
I recently heard a quote at a FREE seminar, (more about those later) but I am not sure who originally said it, "To figure out if something is a good idea or not, tell all your friends, if they tell you you would be stupid to do it, chances are it is the right thing to do."
So, if you are ready and if you wish to I am dedicating this blog to people who are where I was a few years ago and while I am still on my journey you can start yours and together we will surround ourselves with people we trust, who are successful, who have what we want to have, and that truly believe in US. Hang on!
"It is never too late to be what you might have been." —George Ellot

Today's blog is in thanks to Gary Gomez a long time friend, colleague, and someone who believed in me and bought me "The Wealthy Spirit." Little did he know the transformation and journey it would start. Thank you!
