The Scars Of Life

My Brother-in-law Wayne sent us this email today ... maybe you have read it. I hadn’t so I thought I’d share it with you. I don’t know who wrote it so I apologies in advance to the author for not giving credit for this wonderful story.

The Scars Of Life

Some years ago, on a hot summer day in south Florida , a little boy decided to go for a swim in the old swimming hole behind his house. In a hurry to dive into the cool water, he ran out the back door, leaving behind shoes, socks, and shirt as he went. He flew into the water, not realizing that as he swam toward the middle of the lake, an alligator was swimming toward the shore.

His father, working in the yard, saw the two as they got closer and closer together.

In utter fear, he ran toward the water, yelling to his son as loudly as he could.

Hearing his voice, the little boy became alarmed and made a U-turn to swim to his father.

It was too late. Just as he reached his father, the alligator reached him.

From the dock, the father grabbed his little boy by the arms just as the alligator snatched his legs. That began an incredible tug-of-war between the two. The alligator was much stronger than the father, but the father was much too passionate to let go.

A farmer happened to drive by, heard his screams, raced from his truck, took aim and shot the alligator.

Remarkably, after weeks and weeks in the hospital, the little boy survived.

His legs were extremely scarred by the vicious attack of the animal. And on his arms, were deep scratches where his father's fingernails dug into his flesh in his effort to hang on to the son he loved.

The newspaper reporter, who interviewed the boy after the trauma, asked if he would show him his scars. The boy lifted his pant legs. And then, with obvious pride, he said to the reporter, "But look at my arms. I have big scars on my arms too. I have them because my Dad wouldn't let me go."

You and I can identify with that little boy. We have scars too. No, not from an alligator, but the scars of a painful past. Some of those scars are unsightly and have caused us deep regret. But, some wounds my friend, are because God has refused to let go.

In the midst of your struggle, He's been there holding on to you.

The Scripture teaches that God loves us. We are children of God. He wants to protect us and provide for us in every way, but sometimes we foolishly wade into dangerous situations, not knowing what lies ahead. The swimming hole of life is filled with peril - and we forget that the enemy is waiting to attack. That's when the tug-of-war begins - and if you have the scars of His love on your arms, be very, very grateful that He did not let you go.

God has blessed you, so that you can be a blessing to others. You just never know where a person is in his/her life and what they are going through.

Never judge another person's scars, because we don't know how they got them.

Right now, we need to know that God loves us, and that others love us too - enough to not let us go.

A Secret Chat Between The Teachers

Yesterday morning I called Dr Joe Vitale, one of my co-Teachers on The Secret. Last time we spoke was very briefly after an interview for the Succeed Magazine.

This time we had 1 full hour to chat and share stories and insights about the Law of Attraction, when we first learnt about it, how it effected our lives and how long it took to really understand and impliement it. I also got to ask Joe many of the questions people ask me like: "I've watched The Secret 12 times and nothing good has happened yet, how come?" Or "I keep trying to apply the Law of Attraction but it just doesn't work for me."

We invited a handful of people to listen in and they loved the casual chat between The Secret Teachers so much they have asked us to do it again. Luckily I recorded it!!!

If you want to listen to our chat go to www.TheSucceedMagazine.com ... it's FREE to download for the next 2 weeks (tell your Secret friends about it before it disappears.)

Because people loved it so much we have arranged some more Secret Chats with other Teachers. They will be listed on the site every couple of weeks so you can listen in live as we share stories, our experiences and our learnings.

I hope you find them inspiration and empowering ... give us some feedback here. If you have a question you would like answered send me an email.

Yours in abundance

The 7 Steps To Creating Abundance & Prosperity By Using Your Imagination

Like many of the Secret Teachers, I get a constant influx of emails regarding The Secret DVD and book. These days the comments are “I just watched The Secret DVD and it is amazing, thank you for your contribution” or “I’ve watched The Secret DVD over and over again, I try to do what it say and nothing has changed. What am I doing wrong?”

These questions certainly highlight missing links between The Secret movie and how to apply the Law of Attraction. Many people watch the movie, get all excited about manifesting abundance, think about a life of prosperity yet never take any action towards achieving it. It’s like sitting at the kitchen table and humming in meditation while expecting money to fall through the ceiling! It may be possible however we don’t seem to have evolved to that level of manifestation yet. Let me share a few key steps that you can do to massively speed up the manifesting of abundance and prosperity in your life. When I mention abundance and prosperity I mean in all areas of your life: Spiritual, Mental, Physical, Social and Financial.

Know Exactly What You Want

The biggest reason people keep getting poverty and lack in their lives and not having the abundance and prosperity they seek is they do not have a clear mental image of exactly how they want their live to be. Most people know what’s wrong in their lives and can give you a big long list; some even know how they don’t want their lives to be but very few know the perfect life they would like to live every day. By another name it is called a Vision – “Where there is no vision, the people perish” (Proverbs 28:19); perish into the grips of poverty, lack, sickness and fear.

I experienced this personally before I understood the law of attraction. I was over $50,000 in debt with no electricity and the phone switched off because I couldn’t pay the bills, no job, no education, on social security benefits and a wife and four children to feed. Every day I focused on the bills coming in the mail and how much money we didn’t have. I felt paralysed with the fear of poverty and couldn’t see a way out. (The fear of poverty is the most distructive of all fears - we will share more about that another time.)

Once we truly understand the Mind, its connection with God and our Body, and our minds’ purpose, we can no longer live by focusing on our current circumstances. One of the six faculties of the conscious mind is our imagination. The purpose we were created with an imagination it to be able to create the image of how we want things to be regardless of how our life presently is. The challenge is that for most people their imagination faculty peaks at about 8 or 9 years old and hasn’t been used much since. By the time we become a teenager we are told to get our head out of the clouds and be realistic. Most people become really good at imagining how terrible things will be, they become filled with doubt and worry. We must re-train our imagination, create beautiful pictures of exactly how we desire our life to be and then live in that image with faith, expectation and love.

Here are steps to re-focus your mind and re-train your imagination:

Step 1 - Know exactly what you want. Take out a pen and paper and write down what is NOT working in your life how you want it. Could your marriage be better? Do you have the money you need to do and buy the things you want to? Do you have an illness or are you often sick? Are you unhappy? Are you working at a job you hate? Do you live in a home or area you don’t like?

Step 2 - Now write out on another sheet of paper in present tense exactly how you do want each of those things to be. Don’t just write “I want a better relationship.” Write out, in detail exactly what you want to do have and become. For example, “I have a loving fulfilled relationship with my husband. We spend time every day together communicating and falling more in love. We enjoy frequent romantic times together, like walking along the beach hand in hand or sitting enjoying a coffee together.” Describe your life exactly how you want it to be.

Step 3 - Once you have completed that task, throw away or burn the first list you made of what is not working. You don’t want to read or focus on that ever again.

Step 4 - Re-read your new life at least twice a day. When you wake up first thing in the morning and just before you go to sleep at night. Just like a child pretend that it already is, add emotion to it as if it has already happened. Re-writing your new life increases clarity, emotion and expectation.

Step 5 – Only speak to others of how your new life is. Our words create our world so our confessions or what we speak out about our circumstances creates our circumstances. If you continually speak to others about what’s going wrong in your life then that is what you attract. Start speaking with excitement about how your new life looks.

Step 6 - Have Faith … only believe!

Many people just want good things to happen and want abundance and yet doubt about whether it can happen or worry about the worst happening. This is using the law of attraction to create a life that you don’t want as we will always attract what we emotionally focus on. Worry and doubt create the huge emotion of fear. We must LET God, let the power, work through us without being anxious about whether the end result will happen or not!

I think Jesus said it so well when he told us in Mark 11:24 “For this reason I say to you, Whatever you make a request for in prayer, have faith that it has been given to you, and you will have it.”

Note the words “Have faith that it HAS been given to you … and you WILL have it” Some translations say “If you have faith…” or “If you believe…”

Step 7 – Be expectant and grateful. Expectation propels you into action and draws you closer to your goals. If you really desire something in your life there are certain steps you must take. For example if you desired to travel to Hawaii for a holiday you would have to decide when you are going, buy a suit case, inquire about tickets, hotels etc. What do you need to do right now if you truly expect your new life?

Gratitude is the other key ingredient which is often overlooked by people but absolutely essential if you want to attract anything more into your life.

If you are grateful for what you already have and expect more with the faith that you will have it, your life will be filled with a greater abundance that you now cannot comprehend. You must be grateful for your new life as if you already have it!

There are conditions of receiving and that is first of all knowing what you want, asking, and then believing you have it already! In less than 30 days and very little effort you will completely alter your focus and bounce out of bed every day with the vision of your new life.

Your life and circumstances will begin to change and you will see miracles start to unfold.

I need your help ...

You most likely know me from Trading Edge or The Secret DVD/book ... The "car park" and "Checks in the mail" guy.

I have a challenge that I would love your help with: We help publish a magazine called Succeed, (http://www.thesucceedmagazine.com) - it is a bi-monthly magazine with a number of Secret Teachers sharing their insights and step-by-step strategies, plus heaps of other Law of Attrraction stuff from world experts.

The issue that comes out next week has Secret Teacher Dr Joe Vitale featured in it, he shares how he went from living on the streets to world renown author and marketer ... plus 3 other Secret teachers. We featured Bob Proctor in a previous issue and included a 1 hour DVD of him speaking at the Mind & Money 2006 Conference.

The magazine costs about 16 cents per day ($9.95/issue) or the cost of a coffee once a month. Once people see and read the Succeed Magazine they love how inspired and empowered they become. Our vision is to have 1,000,000 readers around the world.

So here is where I would love your help. I have 3 questions:

  1. If you are not a reader why haven't you subscribed yet?
  2. What would it take for you to trial Succeed? (ie bribes, free, include $1000 cash!!! ok, be realistic)
  3. What would cause you to tell everyone you knew to trail Succeed?

Please email your answers to david@succeedmagazine.com.au

Thank you in advance for your help.

Yours in abundance

How do I stop the discouraging thoughts?

A question I received today on my MySpace page:

—————– Original Message —————–

I met you at the Learning Annex in San Francisco and I showed you the book “Dynamic Laws of Prosperity” and you mentioned that was one of the books that started you on your way.

Your workshop was very informative and the concepts, I still remember and share with people. One question I have for you is, how should I overcome those subconscious mind negative emotions. Right now, I am really trying to walk into a new realm in my life with my career and yet there is mental noise distracting me.

Mostly the noise involves tittering over whether I would get a job or continue to move forward with promoting my businesses. I find it challenging to market the business ideas or make steps in unchartered territory because of the low self confidence based on being discouraged through out the years…how do I over come those internal obstacles? How do I believe in myself again? and most importantly how does it become real for me? Not only real emotionally but real financially?

Your thoughts?
Jamila

————————– My Answer ———————-

Hi Jamila

Thank you for making contact with me again. The answer to your question is worth a book.
I wrote an article in the latest Succeed Magazine coming out in June that deals specifically with this challenge.

We keep reverting back to our old thought habits (subconscious paradigms) because we are trying to succeed or change by will power and with our intellect. It will never bring lasting change; we must change the very cause rather then try to change the symptom.

How would you act, what would you do, who would you be if life was absolutely perfect for you right now? If you had all the finances you required or wanted, if you had the perfect relationship, if you had perfect health, if your business was extremely successful and profitable …. How would you really be?

See the thing is you would not have a low self image or feel discouraged or lack belief in yourself if you already had life just like you dream it could be. Now move it out of the conscious mind into the subconscious, out of your intellect into your spirit (or heart).

You must believe and speak and think like the person you want to be before you can ever become that person. Archie Leach (great actor) once said “I acted like Cary Grant so long I became him.” You must create the image of your new life so vividly with your imagination, then hold it with your will, and speak the truth regardless of appearances, and act as if until the life you desire becomes your life! Then and only then will it become real for you.

Yours in abundance

Truth vs Appearances

Here is a question I received recently and my response:

Musawenkosi Tshoaele
May 17 at 9:14am

Hi David,

I would very much like to hear how you view the Truth vs Appearance.

When you will find the time to possibly post such a blog I have no idea:).

Have an awesome event at Melbourne on saturday...today I think, time zones have me confused.

And I'll keep in touch!!

Oh ya, thank u 4 replying to my earlier mails, you good people!
____________________________________________________

Hi Musawenkosi

Wallace D Wattle mentions in his book “The Science Of Getting Rich” that to “think what you want to think is to think truth regardless of the appearances.”

People will often argue that their present reality is the truth; it’s not. Our present reality is a confluence of our past thoughts; a direct reflection of the mind that thinks those thoughts. Most people are only aware of their physical body and the physical world, and total ignorant of the spiritual realm and how it operates.

The Truth is you are made in the likeness and image of God; that abundance, prosperity, health and happiness are the normal and natural states of being. The appearance may be that a person is sick. If our physical body is sick we have been holding the corresponding thoughts, it we then hold ONLY thoughts of health and well-being the body must produce the corresponding from.

Poverty, lack, sickness and unhappiness are all appearances that the person first created in their mind. The truth is that every person can have abundance, prosperity, health and happiness. First they must create it in their mind.

Jesus said it this way, “When you pray, pray believing that you already have it, and it will be yours.” (Mark 11:24) The truth is to believe what we desire is ours and acting accordingly. Most people spend all their lives focusing on and speaking about what they don’t want and so they keep getting it.

“Know the truth and the truth will set you free.” (John 8:32)

Thought

"That negative thought produces illness, unhappiness, failure, doubt, despair; and conversely, positive thought produces health, happiness, prosperity, peace." by Michael Macguire.

You cannot think negative thoughts about another human being, you cannot seek to harm or hurt someone regardless of your reason for the action without ultimately bringing upon yourself the product of negative thought.

The story of Stephen in the Bible in Acts 6:8 to Acts 7:60 is a illustration of what negative thought creates. Stephen by all accounts was a pretty good bloke (full of grace and power, worked great miracles among the people it says). A couple of people got jealous of his following so "they secretly instigated and instructed people to say, We have heard this man speak, using slanderous and abusive and blasphemous language against Moses and God." In other words they lied to their friends, got their friends to lie to others, even creating false witnesses against Stephen.

That happened 2000 years ago, but nobody would do that today would they?!?!? Surely we have learned something in 2000 years.

What Stephen said and did and the praises he received from those he helped must have really rubbed these couple of people up the wrong way ... my guess is that they were probably a couple of old friends who wanted the same recognition as Stephen received but never did anything to achieve it!! They were actually from Stephen's old church, so they would have known him pretty well - maybe some even worked with him before he became famous.

Well, the story goes on to tell us Stephen (the guy who was creating all the miracles and liked be many) was arrested and put to trial - all because of the anger and jealously of a couple of people who never helped anyone but sought to pull successful people like Stephen down. He was arrested by those he was trying to help, who were stirred up by the lying, deceitful, jealous friends from his old church!

Eventually the hatred grew so great against Stephen these people bit him and stoned him to death. Stephen knew that these people did not understand the basics of how the mind works. He knew what was in stall for them because as he died he pleaded on their behalf "Lord, fix not this sin to upon them." Stephen understood that the negative thoughts and actions only create destruction in the lives of those who think it and do it.

We don't have record of what happened to those who instigated the evil hatred and anger to begin with nor of those who stoned Stephen to death because of the lies and deception create by those filled with jealousy. History rarely records these people ... they are quickly forgotten as they suffer their own disease, depression, failure, despair and often pitiful death; never remembered for the people they tried to bring down.

We do read of one man who stood and watched, even approved to Stephen's stoning and death - enjoying the stupidity of these ignorant people. A short time later this man who watched on was harassed, molested and blinded ... he became a very troubled man. He eventually was hung on a cross to die.

You may think this is just a story that is 2000 years old ... the truth is that this same story is happening today. There are people like those jealous angry few that lie and deceive because they are too lazy to become better themselves, they see other people's successes and fame and seek to knock them down, even destroy them so they themselves don't look so bad. Too often it is created by someone who you know, even someone you thought was a friend. They don't do the stoning, they just create the negative stories, the slander, the lies, and incite anger toward you for striving to be the best you can be.

Remember to those who want to wallow in such filth, those who wish to poke fingers at others for striving, those who seek to pull others down though lies and deception, those who even stand and watch with approval and glee - illness, unhappiness, failure, doubt, despair, an unfulfilled life ... and death is the very best they will ever achieve because this is a universal law. Never remembered for the greatness they could have done. What a waste of life and time.

To you who stand tall and bold, who focus only on giving your best, seeking only to lift up those around you, speaking word of truth and encouragement, loving even those who hate you and seek to destroy you - your rewards are health, happiness, prosperity, peace, fulfilment, love ... and life ... far over and above all that you dare ask or think, infinitely beyond your highest prayers, desires, thoughts, hopes or dreams (Eph 3:20) because this is also universal law ... God's law.

The Law of Generosity

I was sent this article today - many of you will know that the author, Dr Thurman Fleet, was the creator of the stick figure that presenters such Bob Proctor and I use to explain the spirit/mind/body connection. Dr Fleet created the stick figure in the 1930's. We have an exciting article in the next Succeed Magazine (www.succeedmagazine.com.au) about this amazing man:

The Law of Generosity
Excerpt from
Rays of the Dawn Natural Laws of the Body, Mind and Soul
by Dr Thurman Fleet © 1948

Great fallacies prevail regarding the nature and significance of true charity or generosity. Much so-called charity is done through a sense of obligation and not as an expression of love. The majority of people feel they have contributed to the betterment of humanity when they have given financial aid, which often finds no higher expression than dropping a coin in a panhandler’s cup.

There is also the selfish individual who gives only where the compensation is equal or greater in proportion to the contribution. This type of charity sinks to the level of a business deal designed to promote selfish social gains and self-glorification. The person so indulging rarely sacrifices personal time or energy to do a charitable act for another. That person prefers to feel exclusive and aloof from other people. Too busily absorbed in selfish interests, he or she resents being inconvenienced to assist the needy or the handicapped.

Inevitably the time arrives in each of our lives when we face a difficult situation and must call upon someone else for help. Those who have done no charity will then feel humiliated to ask another to render assistance in time of need. Ignorant of the Law of Generosity, such a person attempts to repay favors in terms of material things he or she has gathered and hoarded. Little does that person realize that the deeds of the Spirit are performed without any thought or hope of gain or reward and cannot be compensated for in material terms. True generosity, as with love, is a quality of the Soul that expresses kindness, beneficence, mercy and tolerance.

When we give from the heart we must also receive from the heart. Thus we establish a balance between giving and receiving and maintain the two sides of our consciousness. Only through an awareness of the value of giving does the consciousness receive its greatest power. People who feel they have fulfilled their obligations by making an appreciable contribution to charity should realize that the mere giving of money is not enough. We should give of ourselves and our love, thus causing our consciousness to grow and expand, enabling it to receive the best our fellow humans have to offer.

We are always dealt with generously when our natures become generous, enabling the Divine to have greater expression through our thoughts and actions. Until we reach the plane where there is free giving and receiving, we cannot be assured lasting security. “He profits most who serves best” becomes a living principle and truth when we give not from our hands but from our hearts. It is a law of spiritual compensation that when we give the world our best, the best comes back to us – often in greater abundance.

Therefore, we follow the Golden Rule and do unto others as we would have them do unto us. However, we must use discretion in exercising generosity. Being too generous often debilitates the will of those we desire to help and interferes with the experience necessary for their growth and progress. At the same time an excess of generosity may deplete our own resources that may be destined to promote other worthy causes. Charity is then misdirected and defeats its own purpose, for people become irresponsible, shiftless and dependent when we absorb all their problems and take on all their burdens.

It requires fine control and discretion never to do for others what they are unwilling to do for themselves. We cannot always compensate for others’ ignorance. Furthermore, it is a violation of Law to be kind to one person at the expense of another.

True giving is wisely directed and helps others to help themselves. The person who merely flings a coin to a panhandler is not expressing true charity. On the contrary, the donor often encourages some vice in the individual to whom he or she gives and this endangers society in general.

To those who do not understand the Law of Generosity, this method of giving merely offers balm to their sympathetic nature or their false sense of duty. True charity is not synonymous with mere giving but is distinguished by discerning service, true helpfulness, kindness and love. We must recognize the great truth that the best and only way to help another is to help oneself, and that poor, neglected individuals need friendliness and understanding more than they need donations.

The mark of true love and service, distinct from the mere pretense for show or personal glory, is that it does not seek praise or publicity. The individual who has the spirit of true service at heart has no desire for commendation and does not boast of good deeds. That person’s reward comes from the knowledge of a deed well done. The joy given to others becomes that person’s greatest joy. His or her whole nature radiates a spirit of love, kindness and generosity, thus unintentionally but irresistibly drawing to themselves a rare and divine praise.

Someone who focuses only on personal interests deprives life of its chief charms. Moreover, that defeats the very objectives the person hopes to attain. The natural world has a law that whatever is of no use or serves no purpose will whither and shrivel up. Likewise, a law of our own being holds that if we contribute nothing to the great body of humanity, if we make ourselves of no use or service to others, then those qualities of our nature that promote the development of our higher self will begin degenerating and disintegrating. Thus we lose the chief charm and happiness of life. Then we live only with a small and stunted self. However, when we project our lives into the service of others, in generosity, kindness and helpfulness, we evolve to a very high plane of existence. Our whole nature will grow and expand, and we will share in the greatest joys of life, our lives becoming rich and beautiful. When we have entered into and taken part in many other lives, as a consequence we share in everyone else’s successes, joys and happiness.

Once we recognize the truth that all are ONE, and that each individual is an integral part of the whole of humanity, then we will strive for the perfection of all people. Just as the imperfect functioning of one bodily organ can impair all function, so in the greater body of humanity when one individual is poor, disheartened or ill, all people in some degree share the suffering. Humanity is created in the image and likeness of God. All of us are the children of God, and therefore all are entitled to share in God’s beneficence and abundance. Each individual is but a channel for the outflow of God’s abundance to bless all humanity. Just as the individual contributes to the enrichment of others, so all humanity contributes to the individual’s well being.

Once we have purged our minds of hatred, fear and their allies and have welcomed into our minds love and its companions, we will recognize that these positive attributes of the Soul bring a peace of mind and an infinite inspiration that clarify the vision until we can see all the beauties of the earth and recognize humanity’s perfection. Each individual is humanity: the ONE in the many, the many as ONE. As part of humanity, the individual finds the God-given confidence and ability to go forth and carve out a career of divine usefulness.

In accordance with what we give, and the spirit in which it is given, so shall we receive. If we understand and obey the Law of Generosity, Life is bound to give us what we ask. The Law of Compensation forever operates, and we cannot bargain with life on any other terms. Generosity is a quality of love that gives of itself without any expectation of a material reward – the giving that grants true freedom.

Opps!! I'd better write another blog.

Time flies so fast when you're having fun! I can hardly believe it is so long since I wrote my last blog. A friend on msn suggested today that I should post again ... so here I am.

There is much too much to write about to bring you up to date, so I'll share with you just a little of my day today.

At 7:30am the editor of our Succeed Magazine phoned Texas, USA. It was a special call to an amazing man, friend and co-presenter on The Secret, Dr Joe Vitale. I enjoyed immensely sitting in and listening to Joe's story.

Over the coming months we are sharing with our readers the story behind The Secret Teachers ... the real stuff of where they started and the key distinctions they learned on the journey that brought them to where they are today.

Joe's story is amazing - from homeless and poverty stricken to an international author, speaker and world acclaimed marketer. While on the call Joe shared something with us that he is doing which will make the world a better place - and Succeed will get to announce it exclusively in the next issue.

The purpose of Succeed Magazine is to bring regular inspiration and education from the best minds in the world on the Law of Attraction to help people to move more rapidly toward their dreams and goals - To be Your Guide To Living The Abundant Life.

Joe Vitale wrote an article in the current Sir Richard Branson issue (April/May 2008). I'll post Joe's article in the current edition up here tomorrow.

Next issue we not only feature Joe Vitale, we also have stories from Secret Teachers Lisa Nichols, Marci Shimoff ... and ... I'll tell you more later :-)

That was just the start of the day - now its time for me to go the bed. I'll share more again soon.

You will have to wait for the next issue of Succeed to find out the AWESOME project Joe is doing that WILL change the world - it's still a secret!

from Orlando, Florida


It has been a while since I posted on my blog! My son Matthew said "Dad, you need to write something on your blog, its been too long and so much has happened."

It sure has so I will bring you up to date over the next couple of weeks of the events that have unfolded since Christmas.

Right now I'm typing this from my hotel room at the Boardwalk Inn Disney World Resort, Orlando, Florida USA ... at 3:17am! My clock seems to still be on Aussie time where it is 7:17pm! I am here as part of an award I won a little over a year ago. As many of you know I have studied marketing for the past few years and one of my mentors has been Dan Kennedy from the States. I joined Dan Kennedy and Bill Glazer's Platinum Mastermind group in 2006 & 2007.

At the end of 2006 I won the international "Information Marketer of The Year" for 2006 for "The Secret To Wealth: Mind & Money Strategies" event we put on. Part of that award was to spend one-on-one time with Dan Kennedy and Bill Glazer in Orlando, Florida ... so here I am. I'll give you an update on how it goes after I return home.

Until then and always ... Live in abundance,

David Schirmer
