Beyond Time and Money into the Eternal Flow

Beyond Time and Money into the Eternal Flow

There's an important strategy that helps people go from 'working for money' to 'wealth building'.  You stop trading time for money to pay for expenses and start leveraging your talents and resources to create businesses and streams of income that contribute value to others and welcome flow into your life for re-investment, savings, growth and expenses.  From a spiritual perspective leverage is tapping into the generous, intelligent flow of the all good that is our permanent nature and exists beyond the linear bounds of time and space.  How do you activate your receptivity to the transformational experience of feeling, sharing and experiencing the infinite, sufficient bounty of Life? Tap into the Timeless.  In Truth, we always only exist here at the place and here in the now.  There is nothing real about the past except as it operates as a memory in our thought, feeling and perception.  The future is not occurring except as projection of today's ideas in our awareness.  The things we perceive as deeply important and valuable in our businesses such as equity, clients, database, products, brands and strategies aren't permanent—their value is a present moment reality. When we tap into the timeless through prayer, meditation and inspiration practices, we don't de-value the experiences, relationships and things of this world.  Rather we remember that we are One with something greater—many feel it as the presence of God within and around.  That feeling of Oneness builds a context within which we make our marketing, financial and business decisions with more clarity, faith and patience—and less desperation and worry.  Value yourself and others.  A vital wealth practice is to deeply respect your own gifts and talents as God-given attributes that are unique to you.  When you appreciate yourself, you'll naturally be respectful of how you invest your time and energy in exchange for wages, return and income—even if you are working 20 hours a day to build a business or being a barista while you're earning your degree.  Self appreciation is a healthy reflection of how the divine loves, values and expresses as each one of us. Extend that perception of value to your clients, vendors, partners and more.  Not everyone has the same wealth creation interest, skills and aspirations.  Diversity is an opportunity for appreciating how god shows up in and as the other people and institutions—and gives you the chance to make every financial transaction a chance for creating more respect and mutual value for all.  Notice that not everything precious has a price tag. One of the 12 Tools taught in The Money Keys is Service.  It could be working at a soup kitchen, building with Habitat for Humanity, serving in your spiritual community.  Service is the generous giving of our time to help others while we receive the benefit of opening our hearts, forgetting our self concerns and deepening our humility.  Service is a prosperity practice because it awakens in the server the capacity to bring great benefit through a smile, an action, a gesture—often the very things that money can't buy but are vitally needed by others.  I encourage you to have a place of practical, sacred service in your life that enriches you and others.  Your investment of time will return great riches to you and to those you serve. As you live your life from the timeless, anchor in what you value and circulate with generosity, you create a wealth experience that is permanently peaceful, creative and free!

Pre-Paid Legal Associate Al Lewis featured in LOYOLA LIVING magazine

Our Business Partner, Pre-Paid legal Services, Inc. has tons of amazing,
incredible and inspirational stories of people from all walks of life
overcoming seemingly insurmountable odds, to achieve lifestyles many people
gave up even dreaming about.

After 1st seeing Mr. Al Lewis on stage in Oklahoma City in March 2010, Dawn
& I were fortunate enough to meet him in person in Cancun this past June,
just 8 months after his stroke.

We spent over an hour listening to him speak about how the wisdom he applies
in his life, helped him to be sitting poolside on a company all-expenses
paid retreat that he continued to qualify for every month.

Now if a guy who suffered a stroke can make $9500 in a month and maintain
his qualification to bring his wife & himself on vacation-while recovering-I
mean what's your excuse gonna be?- "My
wife/husband/mother/father/sister/brother/kids/boss/German shepherd won't
let me."

Pre-Paid Legal Services, Inc. (NYSE: PPD) Associate Al Lewis (of Chicago) is
featured in a cover story of LOYOLA LIVING, a magazine published by the
Loyola University Health System, a nationally recognized leader in
healthcare services in Chicago.

Al was a patient at Loyola, following a stroke he suffered in October 2009
while he was involved in a business presentation. Before joining PPD, Al
was a truck driver for a national delivery company. In his current PROFILES
OF SUCCESS, Al said, "I hesitate to think what would have happened to me and
my family financially if I still had [the truck driving] job.

I had catastrophic medical insurance to take care of my medical bills but
nothing in place to help meet my other financial responsibilities nothing
except Pre-Paid Legal.

While hospitalized for virtually the whole month of October, Pre-Paid Legal
sent me more than $9,500 in commissions. Had it not been for Pre-Paid
Legal, I can't think what would have happened to me."

That's a great story. And here is a link to the LOYOLA LIVING article about
Al's recovery and the beautiful music he is now making:

Outside the Comfort Zone

Outside the Comfort Zone
Things We Don’t Want to Do

Putting off doing what scares us and brings up fear only creates more obstacles in our lives.

Most of us have had the experience of tackling some dreaded task only to come out the other side feeling invigorated, filled with a new sense of confidence and strength. The funny thing is, most of the time when we do them, we come out on the other side changed and often wondering what we were so worried about or why it took us so long. We may even begin to look for other tasks we’ve been avoiding so that we can feel that same heady mix of excitement and completion.

Whether we avoid something because it scares us or bores us, or because we think it will force a change we’re not ready for, putting it off only creates obstacles for us. On the other hand, facing the task at hand, no matter how onerous, creates flow in our lives and allows us to grow. The relief is palpable when we stand on the other side knowing that we did something even though it was hard or we didn't want to do it. On the other hand, when we cling to our comfort zone, never addressing the things we don't want to face, we cut ourselves off from flow and growth.

We all have at least one thing in our life that never seems to get done. Bringing that task to the top of the list and promising ourselves that we will do it as soon as possible is an act that could liberate a tremendous amount of energy in our lives. Whatever it is, we can allow ourselves to be fueled by the promise of the feelings of exhilaration and confidence that will be the natural result of doing it.

Evaluating Your Associations

Look at the power of influence in our lives and see how it is possible to be nudged off course a little at a time until, finally, we find ourselves asking, “How did I get here?”



Ask yourself three key questions:

“Who am I around?” You've got to evaluate everybody who is able to influence you in any way.


“What are these associations doing to me?” That's a major question to ask. What have they got me doing, listening to, reading, thinking and feeling? You've got to make a serious study of how others are influencing you, both negatively and positively.


“Is that okay?” Maybe everyone you associate with has been a positive, energizing influence. Then again, maybe there are some bad apples in the bunch. All I'm suggesting here is that you take a close and objective look. Everything is worth a second look, especially the power of influence. Both will take you somewhere, but only one will take you in the direction you need to go.


Now let's discuss three ways to handle associations or relationships that are holding you back.

1) Disassociate. This is not an easy decision, nor something you should take lightly, but in some cases it may be essential. You may just have to make the hard choice not to let certain negative influences affect you anymore. It could be a choice that preserves the quality of your life.

2) Limited association. Spend major time with major influences and minor time with minor influences. It is easy to do just the opposite, but don't fall into that trap. Take a look at your priorities and your values. We have so little time at our disposal. Wouldn't it make sense to invest it wisely?

3) Expanding your associations. This is the one I suggest you focus on the most. Find other successful people who you can spend more time with. Invite them to lunch (pick up the tab) and ask them how they have achieved so much or what makes them successful. Now, this is not just about financial success; it can be someone who you want to learn from about having a better marriage, being a better parent, having better health or a stronger spiritual life.


It is called association on purpose—getting around the right people by expanding your circle of influence. And when you do that, you will naturally limit the relationships that are holding you back. Give it a try and see for yourself.
~ Jim Rohn

Guest Post: Make a Dent in the Universe

"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life.

Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of
other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions
drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the
courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already
know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary."-Steve Jobs

Most of us crave to have an impact.

Most of us desire to make a difference.
We all want to leave things better than we found them.



Apple CEO Steve Jobs used to tell his people that
by showing up at their best, they would have the opportunity
to "make a dent in the world"

Jobs understands that it's important to make a profit
in business. Sure you want your business to run on
excellence. Sure you want high quality products and
services. And sure you need to keep innovating
and growing your brand and your business.

But isn't having an impact in the world by helping your
customers and clients - and positively inspiring
and influencing others - what business is all about?
So a question for you to contemplate is:
What "dent" will you make today? What cause will you
pursue? What contribution will you make... at work,
at home, and in life?



Lead From Within: Each one of us can make a difference
and make a dent in the universe. What will your dent be
this week, this month, this year?

Celebrate all Wins

By now, I hope you have been able to identify your "Little Voice" and start to challenge it when it is giving you a hard time. Last week, you learned how to stop the "Little Voice" so you could you make decisions that are in your best interest instead of giving into the negativity of your "Little Voice".
Today I will give you another technique to manage your "Little Voice". This one will give you the ability to train yourself to feel strong, confident, and powerful by anchoring experiences of success. So, in times of adversity, you can draw on positive experiences to fight off your negative "Little Voice". What does that actually mean?
It's simple, Celebrate all Wins! Every time you experience a little (or big) success, clench your fist, pull it in and say "YESSSS!" This will help you recall this experience of winning and success at a time your "Little Voice" is telling you that you cannot succeed. Your energy will go up AND put you in a winning frame of mind as you deal with whatever challenge may come your way.

Next week, look for another technique on managing your "Little Voice" so you can win the war between your ears and achieve the life of your dreams.
 
Be awesome!

Blair

Do Your Worst, for I Will Do Mine!

"Do Your Worst, for I Will Do Mine!"


By David Blanchard
________________________________________

We are living in a most interesting time. Daily, waves of bad news pound against our already badly damaged economy shaking the fragile underpinnings of business and our personal lives. When we personally experience any of these very real, yet unwanted difficulties, we can easily be swept away into the depths of anxiety, frustration and despair.


It is difficult enough to swim against the tide, let go of the anxiety and climb up and out of these circumstances without adding the burden of destructive and unhealthy thought processes. When we engage in destructive thought processes, we engage in fantasy and attempt to put tomorrow's gold in today's purse. We concern ourselves with events, which we may never witness, or we torment ourselves with problems that may never come to pass, that is until they finally become self-fulfilling prophesies.


Og Mandino writes about these unhealthy and destructive habits of thinking, "I have surrendered my free will to the years of accumulated habits and the past deeds of my life have already marked out a path which threatens to imprison my future."


If we get swept into this dark dungeon of the mind it can add enormous amounts of unwanted stress to our lives. Unnecessary stress often results in decreased creativity and productivity, two of the most critical ingredients of success. The inevitable result of these decreases is simply more stress.


In our personal relationships this level of stress can impair our clarity. We can quickly become short-sighted and short-tempered. This slippery slope can destroy commitment and trust, dampen if not destroy much needed intimacy and rip apart once loving relationships. Innocent children often pay the highest price when we are myopic.


However, when we learn to think constructively, we receive inspired ideas, impressions and solutions to problems. This clear vision ignites our passion, which drives our focus, discipline, effort and action. As we live in the now in passion-driven action, people are put on our path whom we can serve and who can serve us. Our natural genius is awakened and accessed. We create tangible results and experience a sense of accomplishment. Our self-esteem heals and our confidence is restored.


When faced with challenges, we create the most we can with what we have been given and see opportunity even if it is limited. We feel connected and alive. In spite of firestorms of life that may be raging around us, we are able to stand with confidence and shout as Albert in the movie, The Count of Monte Cristo, "Do your worst, for I will do mine!"




Viktor Frankl wrote, immediately following his release from a concentration camp, "Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms — to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances."


Viktor shared this timely principle in a most poignant context. While in the camp he lost his pregnant wife, his mother and father and several good friends. They were all killed. His life's work, an exhaustive manuscript, was torn up in his face while vile and angry tormenters cursed and scoffed. Everything he had lived for, his family and career, was brutally destroyed.


Viktor and others who were spared from the gas chambers were assigned to grueling work details — an interminable sentence to hell. Beaten down by the shear gravity of their desperate and dire circumstances and with no hope in sight, many gave up. They simply died in their sleep. However, Viktor noted that those who used their minds to vividly visualize constructively, created a clear vision that gave them purpose in their suffering and joy in their journey despite all the catastrophic losses. Many survived.


We would never want to compare the challenges of our day with the horror of a concentration camp. It would be an insult to humanity. What we can do is learn this valuable lesson. In spite of the unspeakable, many still made the conscious decision to exercise the last of the human freedoms — to consciously choose one's attitude in any circumstance, and Viktor meant "any circumstance."


From his words and actions and all those who courageously joined him in this conscious decision to think constructively and live, we can take courage. We can learn how to be okay while standing in the middle of the firestorms of life. When we do, we are free to be in creation — mentally and physically.


To think constructively, find peace of mind and stay in creation, we may have to change some of our old, deeply seated and unhealthy habits of thinking. James Allen wrote, "Let a man radically alter his thoughts and he will be astonished at the rapid transformation it will effect in the material conditions of his life."



It is time to learn the truth about vivid visualization. It is time to know how to use this powerful gift constructively to manifest inspired ideas that will ignite passion and drive action. Let us learn the truth, alter old and destructive habits of thinking and experience the joy and freedom that will inevitably be ours.


Og Mandino says it best in his perennial bestselling book, The Greatest Salesman in the World, "I will begin to awake, each morning, with a vitality I have never known before. My vigor will increase, my enthusiasm will rise, my desire to meet the world will overcome every fear I once knew at sunrise, and I will be happier than I ever believed it possible to be in this world of strife and sorrow."
