You Won the Race- What a champion!

The majority of everyday people I come across lately seem to be stressed and unhappy. Whatever the superficial reason may be, the underlying cause, in truth, stems from feelings of worthlessness and self-loathing. Let's face it we all have those moments when we feel like failures, that we are less than and will never amount to anything or ever achieve greatness. For so many of us we proceed through life with this burned out feelings of failure and 'less than' the person next door. Our faith and our belief in our greatness seemed to disappear the moment we were born.

Does Your Future Equal Your Past?

There are many that tout the catchphrase '”Your future does not equal your past,” myself included. There is a certain amount of truth to this statement but there is also a part of this that does not hold true which I would like to explain to you today. The truth of this phrase can imprison you or it can set you free. Your Future Does not Equal your Past What this means is that you do not have to have the same life that you led in the past. You can change it.

What Truth Can Your Dreams Reveal to You?

A journal can be used in many powerful ways. Previously we learned how you can open your soul and record in your journal what lurks beneath the surface there. A journal, of course, can be used to help us analyse what lies even deeper still. It can help us to get way down into our subconscious to find answers to questions and help us to solve our problems. The best way to do this is to write an in-depth analysis of your dreams. Your dreams communicate with your subconscious mind and assist you in understanding your true desires.

A New World of Opportunity for the Entrepreneurial Mind

We had the pleasure of visiting Boone Hall yesterday which is an old plantation home in Charleston. You may recognize it as it has been featured in various movies such as 'North and South' and my favorite 'The Notebook.' Boone Hall began as an indigo plantation and with the turn of each new owner it changed to a brick manufacturing plant and cotton plantation to the world's largest pecan tree farm and now to agricultural and tourism. Each new owner saw the opportunity of his time and created significant wealth from it. They moved and adapted to the demands and waves of their eras.

Thriving in Today's Economy Part 4: Serve Others

Today's article is a continuation from the previous articels where I discuss the lessons that Yossi Ghinsberg learned through his harrowing experience lost alone in the Amazon jungle. Today we continue on with a profound experience he had which saved his life. Yossi was in severe pain. His feet were torn to shreds, he survived off barely any food, and he was covered in painful insect bites. One night a flash flood arrived sweeping Yossi away. He survived and spent days crawling his way through mud and debris on his hands and knees as his feet would no longer carry him.

Ten Years in a Cave - The Resilience of the Human Spirit.

My travels around the world have allowed me to experience a different perspective on life. I have had the opportunity to meet and talk with many people from around the world who come from many different places. I have listened to many stories of survival, triumph, heartache, celebration, love and success that have brought many lessons to my heart and life. There are so many people and stories that have stayed within my soul for me to recall and draw upon when I need a simple reminder of how beautiful, bittersweet and magical this thing called life is.

Nike Says it Best...Just Do It!

I've been thinking lately of how I could put together a list of success principles based on my travel achievements. I've lived a pretty adventurous, courageous and successful life travelling the globe. You don't do that unless you possess certain qualities and character traits. I wanted to put together something as to how anyone could apply these same principles to other aspects of their life and achieve the same success. Success principles work no matter what avenue you use them for. I sat down to think about it and put some ideas together when I reached a blank.

Are you a Victim or Are you Living on Purpose?

Attending the live conference in Puerto Rico last week and having the opportunity to learn from some of the most amazing speakers was truly life transformational for us. This is the fantastic community I currently find myself involved in. To be surrounded by empowering and uplifting people for the week has left us floating on air. The messages I learned will stay with me forever; there is no price that can be placed upon such knowledge and power. An absolute peace surrounds me each day now. I'm steady and sure of the path I walk upon.

The Power of the Pen to Propel Your Growth

There is so much about you and your life so far that is hidden deep within you. Either through choice or subconciously. Like a cancer it eats away at you at the surface and on the outside creates a life that is not of your choosing. Most people keep it hidden afraid to let the cancer surface for people to see it's ugliness. The funny thing is, is that it does come out and people do witness it's ugliness in unhealthy destructive ways. What we all need to do is let out all our fears, grieveances, troubles, pains, disturbances the minute they occur.

Trump and Kiyosaki Support the Network Marketing Industry

I am constantly gobsmacked by the amount of negative attention the network marketing industry receives. Network marketing allows anyone to have the opportunity to make a lot of money and quickly. It also provides systems, leadership, training, and a community of supportive people who are celebrating you and working with you to help you rise to the top of success. Why wouldn't anyone want to be involved in it? When I think of network marketing I think of freedom, wealth, security, support, self-improvement, success, lifestyle choices and control over my life.
