This blog post is going to be brief, but don’t let that deter you from it’s value. Today I have a new (and free) mini ebook for you from Sasha Xarrian that she literally just released this morning. This one is called “The Undercover Secret to a Life of Mastery.”

What you’ll find inside is some candid talk about our beliefs and “what if” scenarios, as well as some quick practical exercises. One of the things I also like about Sasha’s materials (and the Undercover Secret) as well is that she shares personal stories from her own life, and she writes in a conversational style… in a way that it’s easy to connect with her through her words.

Every time I’ve shared resources from Sasha, readers have emailed me to say how much they appreciated it. So go ahead and check out her newest creation today

“The Undercover Secret to a Life of Mastery”

Also, in a couple of days, she’ll email you a link so that you can listen to an exclusive audio that she’s also never released before (right now she’s editing it and putting the finishing touches on).

Enjoy!

My story is nothing inspirational compared to those who have gone through extreme adversity to become successful. There are people who were bankrupt, lost their family, lost their legs or hands, living on the street, etc and still rose up to success. I was not in any of these categories – I am a ‘regular’ guy who got lucky.

First, I was lucky to discover the importance of personal development when I was young. That is the fastest way to learn. At the same time, I was also deceived into believing that everything people taught would always work.

For example, when I was doing door-to-door sales for greeting cards, I read a motivational book. I won’t tell you the name of it (because the advice was terrible), but I will share with you that I believed what it said without giving it a second thought. The book said that I should be persistence and ignore all of the rejections because “I can do it.” That’s partially true but doesn’t apply to everyone.

Now, that concept works but it’s terrible because it’s teaching me to work hard like a dog instead of working smarter.

By end of the day, I would be very tired physically and mentally. Imagine walking under the hot sun selling cards to strangers and just being ignored and sometimes, being scolded or insulted. Then continue doing that because you believe the book that said “I can do it.”

Now, how smart is that success strategy?

(now you know why I said the book was terrible)

That experience taught me not to believe everything a “success guru” says.

Later on, I was lucky to meet direct and indirect mentors in my life. Two people that I have learned immensely from are Anthony Robbins and Robert Kiyosaki when I was young. I didn’t just read a book or two and go to the next guru… I’m talking about total immersion. I’ve bought almost all of their books/courses even when I wasn’t having a lot of money at that time and I attended their seminars when I could afford them.

As you can tell by now, I don’t believe there’s ONE SECRET to success. There are plenty of them.

Another of my success secrets, which is known by most people but they’re usually too proud to admit is this – to learn from the success others. I used to think that I could just learn everything on my own and that was good enough. That worked okay, but when I really understood the value of learning from other people – even if I already knew the answer – my success accelerated faster than I could imagine.

Learning from others showed me the difference between ‘unsuccessful’ and ‘getting by.’ It showed me the difference between ‘good’ and ‘great.’ Learning from others showed me the difference between ‘enough money’ and ‘being a millionaire.’

If you come to my house, you’ll see books and courses about the Law of Attraction because I’m doing my best to learn this success principle. I don’t know it great yet, but I will because I am immersing myself in it.

Even when I go to seminars, I already know what Robert Kiyosaki is going to teach again in his but I’ll still try to attend. He could be telling the story of his Rich Dad for the 10th time, but throughout the seminar, I will bring home at least one value that will worth more than 10 times my investment.

To me, I wasn’t looking for the “magic pill” when I’m learning - I’m just looking for the “Aha” moment. When I go through programs, instead of thinking, “is this program worth it,” my mind is only focused on getting at least one valuable insight (insight is MORE than just information).

Let’s say I spend $15 for a book and I don’t learn anything except for having one new “Aha” moment. To me it’s definitely worth more than $15 because that wisdom will be with me forever even though the $15 will be gone tomorrow.

I also think I was lucky because I started to understand about ‘abundance’ many years ago…

Abundance works in many forms - especially, when it comes to obtaining wisdom. No matter how much you share your knowledge, it won’t deplete. Abundance doesn’t mean that if you share 50% of your wisdom, then you’ll only have 50% left.

As a matter of fact, your wisdom increase from 100% to 110% or more because when you share, you’ll uncover new information. I have found that teaching or sharing something is one of the fastest ways for me to really GET it - because the conversation and questions force me to understand it better than ever before.

At the same time, when you’re learning, don’t be upset if you feel like you’re not getting anything from a course. Why? Because the attitude of “I’m not getting anything from this” means that you are living with a scarcity mindset, and that’s the exact opposite of abundance. Instead just remember to keep looking for that one “Aha” moment that makes learning worth it.

I was also lucky to fail many times in my life…

This also has to do with over-absorption of personal development stuff that doesn’t work

Because I was able to fail many times, I learned how to get back into the game again. I’m not talking of major failures like bankruptcy and stuff like that… I thank God that I didn’t have to go through those. Like I said I am lucky to be just a regular guy who was lucky enough to be where I am today.

I was just able to realize that failure is just PART OF THE GAME of success. I realized that I couldn’t win all the time. I had to accept that I would lose once in a while, and that I would grow from the experience.

Michael Jordan (the greatest basketball player of all time) said it like this:

“I’ve missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I’ve been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.”

I was also lucky to be ridiculed and mocked…

I had a dream - to become a millionaire before 30. Everybody I told that to laughed at me, of course not in my face. When I attended personal improvement seminars, attendees who are already successful didn’t seem to enjoy my company because they didn’t see the benefit of mixing with a “loser.” Some people even brushed me away.

Well, because of all the things I’ve shared with you, I achieved my dream several years before I reached the age of 30 (I just turned 30 this year, actually). When I said I wanted to buy a nice car, people discouraged me and said not to dream too much… because I was just riding a small cheap motorcycle at that time. And now I do have that dream car, and I am happy to be able to drive my wife and 3 year old daughter around in it.

Most people tend to ridicule you when you’re not like them because they don’t believe that they have the potential to have the success that you dream to achieve. Your big dreams threaten them and makes them small, so some people don’t even dare to dream.

But I say just who cares if they ridicule me?

I proved them wrong before, and I will prove them wrong again. Actually I am happy when I prove them wrong, not because it makes me feel bigger or better, but because sometimes my success inspires those people to realize how much potential they have!

Like I shared with you at the beginning of my story, I think I was lucky. I was lucky to have so many challenges and setbacks that forced me to learn, and I was lucky to have amazing mentors that helped me accelerate my path to success.

Thank you for reading my story.

Tapping For Kids With Cancer

 

This is going to make a really big difference in the lives of some children. Not only that, but it will help enable the scientific documentation of the benefits of tapping, so that tapping can begin to get more widely accepted by mainstream mediums.

Just how accupuncture and chiropracty were once considered “on the fringe” and are now widely accepted healing modalities, the more tapping is documented the more likely it will be to take a similar path.

Check it out… it’s a great win-win for everybody.

See, a very trusted colleague showed me a new (and FREE) program, and he felt that I should share it with as many people as possible. I was hesitant because the specific program is about turning our passions into profits (entrepreneurship).

Now as a spiritual entrepreneur, I resonate strongly with Sam’s “Six Days to Saturday” message. In fact, ever since I was laid off from my employer last April, I literally live this every single day in support of your personal development.

I just wasn’t sure that this specific opportunity was one that the Inscribe Your Life™ Community would be truly interested in. Then I paused and remembered…

Inscribe Your Life™ isn’t just about writing our stories, it’s about re-writing the stories of our lives. Inscribe Your Life™ is not just a program or a community, it’s a movement… of people like you and I who are choosing to become co-creators in our world to live lives of peace, joy, and abundance.

Even with that in mind, I wasn’t sure that Sam Crowley’s "6 Days to Saturday" was something you’d want to hear about. So I decided to be present, patient, and see what wisdom my inner guidance had for me. I watched more of his videos, and the more I watched the more inspired I became.

And even though I knew I was definitely getting it for myself I still wasn’t convinced I should share it with others. But while I was thinking about ordering his program in August (I hadn’t ordered yet), two things caught my attention:

(1) He’s giving away his entire 6-CD program for free All he asks is that I pay $20 for shipping and handling.

It’s no mystery that he had ME hooked already!

(2) There’s a sentence on his order form that says, specifically:

"You don’t need a perfect plan, you don’t need the perfect story - You can start with a blank page and start writing your future."

After all, here was somebody else that was teaching, specifically, about the relationship between our stories and literally writing our financial future.

But again, even though I knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that "Six Days to Saturday" was right for me, I still wasn’t convinced I should share it with others…

That is, until, the Universe sort of smacked me upside the head!

You see, I had just finished lunch and I went over to a local bookstore / coffee shop with the intention of writing you a message (I just didn’t know what I was going to write about yet).

So I sat down, opened up my laptop, and I looked up and saw the following sign less than 20 feet away from me:

If that’s not proof from the Universe telling me that IT wants me to share this with you, I don’t know what is!

I’m sure it’s no mystery that I immediately sat down and signed up for my free 6-CD set, and during the following week I just loved listening to all the CDs while I was driving in to Portland to teach internet marketing at the Art Institute.

Anyway, that’s my story and I’m sticking to it! I’m sure it’s no mystery when that happened I was feeling a little bit "crazy"…

Cold Souls was recommended by Stephen Simon of Spiritual Cinema Circle, and I don’t know how much I can share about it without revealing too much of both the plot and the essence. The main character of Cold Souls is Paul Giamatti, who is actually playing himself - and he has a mid-life crisis and in an effort to stop the pain he feels inside, he decides to have his soul extracted.

His action sheds light on what many of us might call “insanity,” and forces us to ask a simple question: “Is it enough to not suffer? Or do we need joy and happiness in our lives to be fully human?” At its core, Cold Souls is a movie about the journey outwards in the search for deeper meaning in life, only to return back to our starting place, perhaps transformed if we’re fortunate.

This is definitely a movie worth watching, and quite frankly, it may take a few viewings to capture the full essence of Cold Souls. One message is clear though: When we try to be somebody other than ourselves, life gets very complicated very quickly.

So last year my friend Song released his Quantum Confidence program with great acclaim, and then he pulled it off the market to evaluate exactly how effectively it was working with his customers. He has tested his technology thoroughly, including a scientific study done by the Brazilian armed forces that statistically showed his program helped with PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder).

Well, I literally just got an email from him on Wednesday saying that he’s going to be releasing his program again soon for a very limited time, and to introduce people to his work he’s letting me give you a COMPLIMENTARY 20 minute MP3 audio sample recording from his program.

It turns out that, although the full Quantum Confidence program does have some carefully designed audios that include words (including guided meditations), the words aren’t required to get the benefits of the sample audio.

That’s because the program (and his sample) uses brainwave entrainment technologies specifically designed to bring your brainwaves into alignment with each other (left and right hemispheres). Each time I’ve listened to it, I immediately feel calmer and more centered.

I hope you enjoy the sample, too!

A Note About Brainwave Entrainment

I want to share a few cautions about brainwave entrainment. It is very powerful and effective, and as they say in Spiderman “Along with great power comes great responsibility.”

Under no circumstances should you drive a car or operate potentially dangerous machinery/equipment while listening to brainwave entrainment technologies. Additionally, if you are prone to epileptic type events, pregnant, wearing a pacemaker, prone to seizures, or under the influence of medication or drugs, then first consult a physician before listening.

Though you may experience immediate benefits from listening to brainwave entrainment, each person is different and you may need to listen to brainwave entrainment audios several times before experiencing the full benefits. It is very important to remember that whether you initially notice “effects” or not, it is indeed having an effect. It’s just like exercise — you wouldn’t expect to see changes in your body after the first few times working out either.

This is a quick heads up about an incredible teleseminar series called “Healing With the Masters” that begins in March – and you get to listen in on these amazing people for FREE!

People like… Guy Finley, Byron Katie, Dr. Bruce Lipton, Neale Donald Walsch, Bob Doyle, Colin Tipping, Sonia Choquette, Gary Zukav, Scott Blum (from DailyOM), David Wolfe, and more!

http://www.healing-with-the-masters.com

Jennifer McLean runs this series about 2 or 3 times per year, always with different people, and always with amazing guests. If you already follow me on Twitter then you know that when the calls go on, I often tweet out quotes -as they’re happening- while I listen.

Also, here’s a funny story about Gary Zukav…

(one of the people in this Spring’s series)

Did you know that upon hearing of his work, Oprah Winfrey called Gary unsolicited and asked if he’d be on the show. You know what he said?

“Oprah who? No thanks.”

He had never heard of Oprah. She wouldn’t take no for an answer, so she kept calling until eventually he accepted.

I thought you’d get a kick out of that.

Anyway, since I’m a big fan of many of these peoples’ work, you can expect to hear more from me about this phenomenal series… especially as some of those specific calls are about to happen (and like I said, especially if you’re following me on Twitter or my friend on Facebook.

No matter how many times Jennifer runs this series, it -always- gets my highest recommendation, so go ahead and register at the link below and join us on the calls

A dear friend sent this movie to me months ago, and I only finally took the 20 minutes to watch it and I am SO glad I did.

“Validation” is a short film about what happens to people when somebody starts believing in them, even when they don’t believe in themselves. I’m reminded of a quote that was always hanging on a banner in my martial arts studio that said:

“People have gone further than they thought they could… simply because somebody else thought they could.”

Sometimes all we need is a little bit of “Validation” to help get us through the day, or perhaps, even to change our lives forever.

Enjoy
