Humor: The light side of life... The Priest, the Donkey, the Nun & the Bishop...
The priest entered his donkey in a race and it won.
The priest was so pleased with the donkey that he entered in another race and it won again.
The local paper read: PRIEST'S ASS OUT FRONT.
The Bishop was so upset with this kind of publicity that he ordered the priest not to enter the donkey in any more races.
The next day the local paper headline read: BISHOP SCRATCHES THE PRIEST'S ASS.
This was too much for the Bishop, so he ordered the priest to get rid of the donkey.
The priest decided to give it to a nun in a nearby convent.
The local paper, hearing of the news, posted the following headline: NUN HAS THE BEST ASS IN TOWN.
The Bishop fainted. He informed the nun that she would have to get rid of the donkey so she sold it to a farmer for $10.
The next day the headlines read: NUN SELLS HER ASS FOR $10.
This was too much for the Bishop, so he ordered the nun to buy back the donkey and lead it to the high plains where it could run free.
The next day the headlines read: NUN ANNOUNCES HER ASS IS WILD AND FREE.
Alas ... The Bishop was buried the next day.
MORAL OF THE STORY?
Being concerned about public opinion can bring you much grief and misery and even shorten your life.
So, be yourself and enjoy life. Stop worrying about everyone else's ass and you'll live longer.

A Note From The Universe:
Avoiding something, draws it ever near.
Defending yourself, can become a full time job.
And worrying about things that might never happen, increases their chances of happening.
Yet still, you are 10,000 times more likely to laugh than cry, be healthy than sick, live rich than poor, have friends than be alone.
That's the kind of momentum you've garnered through countless lives of love; that's the kind of power you long ago learned to master, and, quite frankly, those were the odds you negotiated.
You're just another part of me -

Keep Your Dream
I have a friend named Monty Roberts who owns a horse ranch in San Ysidro. He has let me use his house to put on fund-raising events to raise money for youth at risk programs.
The last time I was there he introduced me by saying, "I want to tell you why I let Jack use my house. It all goes back to a story about a young man who was the son of an itinerant horse trainer who would go from stable to stable, race track to race track, farm to farm and ranch to ranch, training horses. As a result, the boy's high school career was continually interrupted. When he was a senior, he was asked to write a paper about what he wanted to be and do when he grew up.
"That night he wrote a seven-page paper describing his goal of someday owning a horse ranch. He wrote about his dream in great detail and he even drew a diagram of a 200-acre ranch, showing the location of all the buildings, the stables and the track. Then he drew a detailed floor plan for a 4,000-square-foot house that would sit on a 200-acre dream ranch.
"He put a great deal of his heart into the project and the next day he handed it in to his teacher. Two days later he received his paper back. On the front page was a large red F with a note that read, `See me after class.'
"The boy with the dream went to see the teacher after class and asked, `Why did I receive an F?'
"The teacher said, `This is an unrealistic dream for a young boy like you. You have no money. You come from an itinerant family. You have no resources. Owning a horse ranch requires a lot of money. You have to buy the land. You have to pay for the original breeding stock and later you'll have to pay large stud fees. There's no way you could ever do it.' Then the teacher added, `If you will rewrite this paper with a more realistic goal, I will reconsider your grade.'
"The boy went home and thought about it long and hard. He asked his father what he should do. His father said, `Look, son, you have to make up your own mind on this. However, I think it is a very important decision for you.' "Finally, after sitting with it for a week, the boy turned in the same paper, making no changes at all.
He stated, “You can keep the F and I'll keep my dream."
Monty then turned to the assembled group and said, "I tell you this story because you are sitting in my 4,000-square-foot house in the middle of my 200-acre horse ranch. I still have that school paper framed over the fireplace." He added, "The best part of the story is that two summers ago that same schoolteacher brought 30 kids to camp out on my ranch for a week." When the teacher was leaving, he said, “Look, Monty, I can tell you this now. When I was your teacher, I was something of a dream stealer. During those years I stole a lot of kids' dreams. Fortunately you had enough gumption not to give up on yours."
"Don't let anyone steal your dreams. Follow your heart, no matter what."

It Is A Sin To Be Poor
To quote George Bernard Shaw, "It is a sin to be poor."
If you trace the etymology (roots) of the word sin to its Greek
origin, you'll find that it comes from an archery term meaning "to
miss the mark."
In today's society, you're compensated monetarily based upon the
value (real or perceived) that you provide.
For example, we obviously place more value on our own entertainment
than we do our own evolution, transformation and growth. Witness
the difference in remuneration between an actor and a teacher.
We also have no problem compensating our sports figures multiple
millions of dollars per year to chase balls around a field (Tiger
Woods pulled in over $80 million last year), but we think that our
spiritual teachers are supposed to be paupers. That's faulty logic.
It's interesting to me that many of us in Western culture are
conditioned to believe that it's not "spiritual" to make (or
desire) large sums of money (green energy). This is ludicrous!
In the creative story in Genesis, God stepped back on the 7th day
to observe His handiwork and determined it was all "good." All of
it.
Anytime you "damn" any part of creation, you damn God.
For where is God not? Where is spirit not? Where is energy not?
It's all the same stuff.
When you truly understand that the money in your world (or lack
thereof) is directly related to the value you provide, then you'll
realize that those who aren't making enough of it aren't providing
enough value. This is the REAL mistake or missing the mark: an
incorrect focus.
Quite frankly, I've never had a money goal for the entirety of my
life until just recently... and yet I've become a
multi-millionaire. Why? My entire focus has been to learn, grow,
love and give more value to myself and others.
...and money has come as a byproduct of this focus.
"Why do you have one now?" you may ask. Only because I believe that
in our society, like Warren Buffet states, "Money is just a
convenient way of keeping score." I use the money my company
generates as a feedback mechanism to how much value we're providing
to the world. No more, no less.
One of the messages in my daily Thoughts of Power is this:
"A feast is made for laughter and wine maketh merry; but money
answereth all things." --Ecclesiastes 10:19
If you look at studies of those who are "poor," it's comprehensive.
Poor is a state of mind, not just an empty wallet or purse. Those
in our world who are poor are also invariably poor in their
relationships, their intellects, their health... All of which are
pillars of Harmonic Wealth®.
Poor is a focus, a vibration and mindset that attracts more of the
same.
Only when you change the fundamental cause of this vibration will
you ever experience different results and indeed "hit the mark."
Mr. Shaw was dialed in.
What will life be like when money is unlimited? And what does it take
for you to accomplish this outcome? Clïck hëre to find out.
Think Right Now! Series:
A letter to the depressed, anxious, afraid, panic stricken
Pain, viruses, injuries, disease, low energy, mental and
physical deterioration...
We are blessed that there are effective medications for these
things.
Medications have and will continue to save many lives.
Without certain drugs, I know that I probably would have been
dead long ago.
It's because of the breakthroughs in surgical procedures and in
drugs that I have a quality of life at all... I am referring
specifically to my spinal fusion surgery in 2002.
Antidepressant and anti-anxiety drugs can make people feel
good, too.
But in way too many cases they are handed out like candy to
people who, understandably, are distraught and filled with grief
about a current or long-standing situation in their lives.
Most of these people's brains are not broken. Most. 99%.
And these drugs can have such horrific, permanent effects on a
person's body and brain.
A new client told me recently that she was getting a divorce
and she was so terribly depressed that she couldn't function...
that she cried all the time. She said that her doctor
prescribed an antidepressant, a very powerful drug, that if
taken for a period of time might hijack her body so that she
might never be able to get off of it. Happens to people all the
time. He didn't tell her that though. She didn't take the
pills.
So I asked her if she was depressed before her husband asked
for a divorce. She said no, of course not. So I asked her if
in the space of 30 days, did she think that she suddenly
developed a "chemical imbalance." She said no of course not.
I said, "So your depression is all because of how we you are
thinking of the situation?"
She said yes absolutely.
Now she is using Freedom from Depression Now, Dissolving Panic
and Anxiety Now, Infinite Joy Now, Real Self-Esteem Now and
Unstoppable Motivation Now, rotating them constantly.

She listens to them softly while she sleeps, while she cooks,
while she drives, while she watches TV, while she showers...
She said she hasn't felt this good since she doesn't know when.
She's still getting a divorce, and she's completely thrilled
about it.
If you are sad, if you are depressed, if you live your life
filled with fear and anxiety, if life has grabbed you by the
throat and squeezed hard, it does not mean that you need to be
medicated.
What you need to do is learn how to deal with it... naturally,
so that you can become stronger... naturally.
Look at these five programs, and others at:

They can help you get along, find your place in life and be the
best YOU that you can be...
Naturally.
Here's what I mean...
Hi Mike,
I can't tell you how wonderful I have found your Think Right
Now tapes
I was looking for answers to depression, anxiety and panic I
had been dealing with for years. I have been on several
medications and have had expert private psychological help on a
weekly basis. That helped, but there were still some blocks I
couldn't get by... like anger, and the terrible sad feelings
that would overcome me every so many days.
As soon as I got your tapes I started listening to them during
the day while I was on the computer, and during the time I would
fall asleep at night. I used the "Freedom from Depression" and
"Dissolving Panic and Anxiety" tapes interchangeably for the
first week.
Think Right Now! Audio Programs Catalog
I thought I was feeling more placid, my anger and panic didn't
seem to be so bad, but I was afraid to say anything to my
husband or my doctor in case I slid back. I continued to listen
as much as I could while doing housework, making meals, and
working on the computer. After two weeks, my husband said, "You
seem so relaxed -what pills has the doctor changed you to?" Ha
ha! My meds had not been changed, just my attitude! I cannot
tell you in words the calmness that seemed to gradually come
over me. Things that would have bothered me terribly two weeks
prior, didn't bother me at all! I just placidly went on with
whatever I was doing.
Since then (about two weeks) I have been listening to the
Organization and Goals tapes, interspersed with the depression
and panic tapes.
Think Right Now! Audio Programs Catalog
I have much more energy, and have tackled things around the
house I couldn't face before. I also have your "Think Right Now
Windows Software" program which I run when I am writing in Word
or doing spreadsheets in Excel. Its great!
These tapes have not only put new thoughts into my head, they
have removed bad thoughts from my head. I had some blocks that
were not letting me progress, and my psychologist says "Whatever
you're doing keep it up!" because now we are forging ahead with
my therapy.
Thank you so much Mike,
J. Batzold
Love you all!

Your Health is Your Wealth: Incredible new EFT video for you...
If you've spent any time with the Wealth Beyond Reason
material be it the free sample material, or the material in the membership area, you know how Bob Doyle and I feel about EFT and it's use with the Law of Attraction.
Releasing resistance is absolutely key, otherwise you've got a true energetic force field up, literally
repelling what you're trying to attract.
You may have visited the EFT site before, but if you
haven't been recently, you have GOT to go check out
the new introductory video they've done (it was
directed by the same guy who directed The Secret,
and if you've seen
It REALLY communicates what's possible with this technique.
If you're already using it, you'll enjoy watching the video anyway. If you're NOT yet using it, I'll bet you'll be trying it by the end of the day.
Look for the "New EFT Introduction Video" icon in the
upper right of the screen.
Totally cool. :-)

Increase Sales By Flying Under Your Prospects'
How do you persuade someone to do what you want them to do?
A whole world of marketing exists around us trying to do
that every minute of the day. Do you even notice it anymore
or, like your prospects, have you subconsciously set up a
system of "radar defenses" against the daily bombardment of
marketing messages?
Take a minute and count up the advertising methods which
fight for your attention (and money) every day. Just the
basic list includes:
· Yellow page ads
· Newspaper and magazine ads
· Postcards, catalogs, and direct mail circulars in your
"snail mail" box
· Radio pitches interrupting the flow of your favorite songs
· TV ads - about 20 minutes worth per hour now
· Hundreds of storefronts, "mega" malls, and strip malls
· Highway billboards by the thousands
· Circulars hung on your doorknob
· Illegal signs on stop signs and telephone poles
· Legitimate email messages
· Spam email or UCE (without permission commercial email)
Just these 11 sources can overwhelm your brain with
marketing messages. Like trapped rats, people develop
defenses against this never-ending onslaught. They throw up
a wall or a "radar defense" that goes into action the minute
they smell a "pitch" or a sales job. Don't blame them. We
all do it!
So how can you get around this psychological wall against
the constant sales and marketing messages? Well, the answer
does NOT lie in hitting people with more frequent and
obnoxious advertising or sly, sneaky tactics. You might get
them to trust you for a minute, but it will backfire in the
long run.
You must do two things instead:
1. First, you must establish credibility for yourself and
your business as an expert.
2. Second, you must reduce their fears about doing business
with you.
Doing these two things will get you past their defenses and
allow you the opportunity to persuade them to buy your
product.
So how do you accomplish these two "simple" things? What
will win someone's attention, raise your credibility, and
lower their fear factor all at the same time? The one-word
answer really applies to most everyone.
Trust!
If a seller can get behind your defenses with information
which makes you trust them, then that credibility will carry
over into a sale much of the time.
How can you get this credibility?
Well, take this next fact as online marketing "gospel," for
many people have proven its effectiveness.
Fact: Publishing and promoting with free articles gives you
one of the most powerful opportunities available to tip the
buyer's credibility scale in your favor.
How can we prove this works? Quite easily actually. Take a
break from reading this and go check out a newspaper or
magazine for a minute.
Which do you trust more, the ads or the articles? Most
people will choose the articles hands down. Why? Because
the articles don't try to "sell" you anything. Instead, they
hand out useful information for educational or other
practical purposes.
Most of us grew up in a culture which says we can believe
and "trust" what appears in the standard "news" or
"information" format. In other words, if it appears in
print, then we can believe and trust the author.
So go ahead! Use this lifetime of conditioning to your
advantage in selling your products and services!
Very few things will create an atmosphere of trust and
confidence in people as reading one of your articles on a
subject that greatly interests them. It shows you know your
business. It also demonstrates you will do more than just
try to sell them something.
Publishing articles literally lets you fly under their
advertising "radar defenses."
So remember these points when deciding whether or not to use
articles to promote your business:
1. Few things create as much trust and confidence in the
minds of potential customers as reading an article you wrote
on a subject which specifically and intensely interests
them.
2. Articles establish credibility quickly because, right or
wrong, we've all been trained to trust the "news."
3. An article, or series of articles, will differentiate you
from the competition, who bombard people with nothing but
sales messages.
4. Providing content-rich, non-sales-oriented articles will
also help build and solidify your relationship with existing
customers so they give you repeat business.

Dominating Amazon
Earlier this week I've found an e-book called "Dominating Amazon",
written by James Simpson. I bought it even though I didn't really
expect to find anything new to me, but I have to admit that I did.
It actually gave me some ideas how to improve the Amazon project I started recently.
The price of this e-book is only 7 dollars, I'd say that it's money well-spent. Check it out here.
Final Note Of Inner Wisdom:
You are worthy!
As a human being, as spirit manifested in form, you are innately worthy. Your worthiness does not have to be strengthened or improved. However, you may not PERCEIVE yourself to be worthy.
If you doubt your self-worth, consciously or unconsciously, you will limit the good things you will allow into your life.
Do you consider yourself worthy? It may help to answer these questions:
Heal your relationship with MONEY. Discover and resolve your behaviours, emotions and limiting beliefs around money.
Shift your money consciousness, your self worth and your net worth.
I appreciate you,
