My latest $50,000 Law of Attraction story...

Ok, so using my own system of the Law of Attraction, I've now attracted the perfect girl, a great unfolding of new opportunities, great new inspired products, joint ventures and more, all within the time frame of this year. What's else is happening? I'm so glad you asked, because I have a great story to share with you.

I was talking with my MasterMind partner couple of weeks, and we were discussing whether there was anything missing in what we're doing with the Law of Attraction. While we have both used the LOA to attract money this year (even though relationship, family matters and other things were certainly more "important" LOA successes than the money), I thought to myself...you know, a really cool Law of Attraction money story would be great about now.

So, I decided to do something very specific, to really put my new "Seven Days to Success with Law of Attraction" system to the test. On November 7 (I like to start things on the "7" days) I specifically set out to attract $50,000 on or before I leave for a big week-long business event in Los Angeles called CEO Space. It was an intention to generate $50,000, either through direct revenue or capital raising. But the number was very specific.

To keep myself "accountable" I shared the number with my parents, my girlfriend Lynn and my MasterMind partner, Vernon. Then I took it one step further and shared it with one of my coaching clients, James, on November 9 during lunch. Nothing like putting yourself out there and laying your reputation and your system on the line to really be accountable!

So, here's how the "attraction target" laid out: "I will generate at least $50,000 on or before December 9, 2007 through an avenue that is unusual and will make it clear that the Law of Attraction system is working!"

Putting my Seven Days to Success system into action, I went through the 7-step process to get things moving. Then I let go and started paying very close attention to what came up in the process (part of my system).

Several opportunities arose during the first week, but most were extensions of things already in progress. Of course, I followed the path with those, but was still paying attention for that "unusual" thing that make it very clear. By the way, there is still quite a bit of time left until December 9, let's see what else happens....

On November 16, I received a phone call from a client in another business venture, entirely unrelated to MasterMindMentor.com (in fact, he didn't even know about that part of my world) or anything else that was "on the radar" for this particular "attraction" process. It was after 6 PM on Friday evening and I nearly didn't answer the phone. But I got that "tingle" of something important (follow the trail) and decided to answer.

After our introductory pleasantries, he started out by saying, "Hey, great job on the [name withheld for privacy] project and getting us a nearly 10% return last month." Then went on to ask me what else I was up to lately and how I was doing, etc.

I began to tell him about what I was doing with MasterMindMentor.com and all the interesting opportunities that have arisen since I launched it earlier this year. "This is really my heart-of-hearts project and I know it's going to be successful beyond anything I've ever done," I told him, and continued, "I'm putting together the business plan now and intend to raise some capital when I go to this big event in December."

He then responded very quickly: "I want in!" I hesitated for a moment..."Well, [name withheld for privacy] I'm working on the business plan now and I'll be happy to show it to you when I'm done." He responded with: "No, I don't need to see the business plan. I know you, I trust you and I want in."

Then came the fireworks! My client went on to say: "You don't I don't have a lot of money but I just got some money from an inheritance. I have $50,000. How do you want me to make out the check?" (!!!) Wow, the EXACT amount I put out there, back in record time. At this point, I'm both incredibly grateful (Day 7 of my system) and at the same time thinking that maybe I should have picked a bigger number!

Almost (but not quite) amazed, I responded, "But [name] don't you want to at least work out some terms and see the plan first?" He insisted: "No, I don't need the details, I trust you and just tell me how to make out the check and where to send it."

OK, now it's really a bad idea to try to work against what the Law of Attraction throws right on your doorstep, so I let go of trying to provide more information and then just said "Thank you" and gave him the information. This was NINE DAYS after setting my original intention. I gave myself 31 days to make it happen and it only took nine days! The check arrived Tuesday and is in the bank now!

Always remember that the Law of Attraction is working in your life, whether you are directing it intentionally and consciously or whether you are doing it randomly. So, get clear about what you want and by all means, USE A SYSTEM for the Law of Attraction. It works! Check out my simple, yet powerful 7-day system at:

www.LOAinSevenDays.com

And if you want some help, I also offering personal one-on-one coaching to REALLY kick the LOA into high gear, and do it quickly. If you act quickly, I have some slots open right now...
Until next time...I wish you all the best in everything you pursue!

Peace and Prosperity,

Jeff

Is something missing from The Secret?

For most of this year, as I’ve been coaching clients in various areas of life and business, the subject of Law of Attraction keeps coming up over and over. I kept getting some version of the same question: “Why isn’t this working for me? I’m meditating and visualizing myself into a cosmic stupor but I’m not getting the results I want.”

My answer is simple. Take a look at the word: Attraction. Do you notice anything in that word. Look again: AttrACTION. Can you see it now? Action is a key element. If you’re doing all the other stuff right, maybe you’re not paying attention to the actions that you need to take to really activate the Law of Attraction.

That’s why I’ve created a new system called The Law of Attraction ACTION PACK - Seven Days to Success with the Law of Attraction. This effective and efficient system includes 4 CDs and 2 DVDs with four videos and a Seven Days to Success Workbook, plus I’ll even offer some people one-on-one coaching on using the system at a dramatically discounted rate. I feel it’s vitally important to your success to make the Law of Attraction work in your life. The truth is that it’s already working in your life anyway. So, how about learning a way to consciously work with this powerful force.

This system includes special sound and music technology enhanced tracks to entrain your mind into your connection with the universal energy that drives the Law of Attraction, plus an audio guide to the Seven Days to Success with the Law of Attraction program. There is also a bonus of my updated audio program of Wallace D. Wattles’ 1910 classic, The Science of Getting Rich.

The videos include a MasterMind Movie for the Law of Attraction, an instructional video on how to make a customized MasterMind Movie for yourself, an educational webinar illustrating the “action” system for Law of Attraction.

This system is designed not only to teach but also “reprogram” the brain for success with the Law of Attraction. Check it out for yourself at: http://www.loainsevendays.com/.

I look forward to working with many of you toward unlimited success with the Law of Attraction.

Propel Yourself Forward...with Life and Business Coaching...

What Coaching is and what it isn’t

Life or Business Coaching is designed for people that are truly ready, motivated and committed to create a successful life for themselves, or ready to take their business to a new level of success. A life or business coach is skilled in helping you make dramatic improvements every area of your personal or business life and holding you accountable for the changes you say you are committed to making.

Ten years ago, coaching was considered the new “fad” in personal and business development but now everyone from Fortune 500 executives to homemakers and small-business owners are taking advantage of the power in having someone on your team, in your corner…so you don’t sit on the bench.

A Coach is not a therapist. Although many Coaches are consultants, a true Coach is more than a consultant...a Coach is also a friend who can give you the “tough love” you need to make the hard decisions in your personal or business life. A Coach helps you focus on both the big picture and the task at hand so you can reach your end goals in a manageable, organized and methodical way.

A Coach is committed to your success ALMOST as much as you are (Hint: your Coach should NEVER be more committed to your goal than you are!). Your Coach is your personal expert, motivator, mastermind partner and cheerleader to help you realize your full potential!

Most Coaches specialize but many are skilled in a number of areas. For example, a Life Coach may be focused on people in transition in their lives, whether career changes, divorce, loss of a loved one, etc. Business Coaches may be specialists too, perhaps focused on a specific area of business or a specific type of business.

Wherever you are in your life right now, if you are committed to success, whether personal or business, a Coach can help you get to where you want to go, faster, more efficiently, more profitably and with a greater degree of satisfaction.

While there are many ways Coaches work, there are also typically common areas of focus, particularly in setting and achieving goals. Depending on the structure, your Coach may give you homework to complete before the next session. A good Coach will “MasterMind” with you to help come up with ideas that you might not have considered working on your own.

There are entire books written about coaching, so I’m not going to try to cover the entire global subject of coaching in this short article, but I do want to share with you a little bit about how I coach my clients.

MasterMind Life Design Coaching (personal or business or both)

Because I have a broad and varied background and have studied and worked in a number of areas throughout my life, I have a somewhat unique approach to coaching. I can bring insight into many areas, both on a personal, spiritual and business level and because I enjoy variety, I split my coaching time between business and life coaching, with a focus on what I call MasterMind Life Design Coaching.

My typical client is an entrepreneur, or wants to be. This could be a small business or home-based business person (or both). He or she is interested in personal development and improvement. My clients typically have an open mind to new ideas and experiences and are willing to look at ways of creating success that might initially be a bit foreign to them.

Because the entrepreneur typically is in a constant state of balancing their personal and business lives, we spend time together co-creating a program to promote that balance of work and play that is so important in the lives of busy entrepreneurs. A large part of our coaching program is the MasterMind process, which essentially is idea development and execution. When two great minds get together working on solving the same problem, magical things can (and do) happen.

Seven Ways MasterMind Life Design Coaching Can Propel Your Personal or Business Life Forward Faster:

1. Help you to set realistic and achievable goals (Hint: Virtually EVERYTHING is achievable) in your business or personal life

2. Provide an organized structure to get you from where you are to where you want to be

3. MasterMind with you (and your business team, if necessary) to generate new ideas, and organized plans for executing on those ideas

4. Help you develop and automate your marketing and sales efforts for your business

5. Plug you into the MasterMind Network (yours and mine) to expand your contact base and the resources available to you

6. Hold you accountable for your own success

7. Teach you how the Law of Attraction and MasterMind process REALLY works so you can super turbo-charge your life or business by using it properly

I would like to invite you to explore coaching with me and see for yourself if it is a structure that can help propel you forward. And in order to make the process easier for you, I’m going to make you the following offer…


Special Offer for Loyal Blog Readers
FOR THE FIRST SEVEN (yes, only the first seven) PEOPLE WHO CONTACT ME…

…I am going to provide the complete MasterMind Life Design Coaching program for you personally or for your business, or both if you want to combine it…for a full three months, but you only have to pay for the first two! That’s right, commit to a coaching structure for a minimum of three months but only pay for two.

This offer is available to you simply by providing me a comment below (or contact me directly if what you want to tell me is more personal to you) and telling me three things:

• Why you believe MasterMind Life Design Coaching will benefit you
• What you wish to accomplish through the process
• When you are ready to get started

…that’s it…just comment (or message) back with your answers to the above points, and we’ll set up an initial “Exploration Session” to see if we’re a good fit, and then off we go…on the way to creating your Ultimate Dream Life through MasterMind Life Design Coaching!

Because of my current schedule of producing new personal and business development products, speaking, and of course, balancing my own busy personal life (including being the single Dad of three young boys still living at home), I can only commit to 11 coaching clients at any one time…so please respond right now if this interests you because my schedule WILL fill up quickly.

Thanks for taking the time to learn more about MasterMind Life Design Coaching. I look forward to working with you and wish everyone the very best in all you pursue.

Peace and Prosperity,

Jeff

Passion and Inspiration

Dear Friends,

When we feel lost or disempowered, it is a certain sign that something important to us is missing in our lives. We feel emptiness and a longing for something more. Something deep in our being calls out to us, sometimes with a whisper and sometimes with a scream. This typically happens whenever we are not being true to ourselves, to our mission, to the purpose of our spirit, or what I call "The Passion" inside us.

We all have it, that one thing, or those few things, that truly inspire us to greatness. When we are engaged in THAT process, we feel balance, peace and harmony. Time seems to stand still and we awaken from the process feeling refreshed, rejuvenated and empowered. For some, The Passion comes from playing music or singing, for others, writing, or cooking, or helping special needs children. Whatever it is, experiencing and acting on "The Passion" in you is vital to your very being, to your physical, emotional and mental balance, to virtually every aspect of your life. You must pursue your passion, with passion.

We all have off days. In fact, I'm kind of having an off week this week...it happens. No matter how much personal development or counseling we may have been through. No matter how much success we may have created in our lives, we can still have a day (or a week) that throws us off our game. The key to overcoming this is to find your passion, get yourself back to center again.

Are you having trouble finding inspiration in your life? Feeling a little off your path or lacking in direction? There are many ways to rekindle that inspiration: get out of your normal routine, take in something of divine beauty, like a sunrise or walk in the forest, pick up your guitar and play for awhile, sing your favorite song (even if it is just in the car on the way home from work), just do something that brings your spirit back into alignment.

When I woke up this morning, after experiencing this “off” week I mentioned, I decided I was going to dedicate today to bringing myself back to who I really am. I do this by searching for something inspiring. Usually, that search is not really even a “conscious” thing. In other words, I’m not really sure what I’m searching for…I just “follow the trail” and stay aware until it becomes obvious that I have found what I need in that moment. The Passion for me is writing, playing music, speaking and doing all I can to inspire others. Today, I just had a feeling that music was going to be involved bringing me back to center. And so it was, but not in the “normal” way for me…

In the end, three out of four of my significant “passions” entered into my return to my Self. First, I discovered inspiration and passion in the process of watching a series of four videos about Paul Potts, who was the winner of the U.K television series “Britain’s Got Talent”...here's the first one:





This is the story of a man who knows his passion, but works (worked – past tense - actually) as a cell phone salesman. His passion is singing opera and while I am not a huge opera fan, the Puccini aria called “Nessun Dorma” is one of the most passionate pieces of music ever written, at least in my opinion.

I've included three more videos below documenting Paul's process and transformation. Watch Paul transforming from a meek and mild cell phone salesman with very little confidence to a world-class opera singer who went on to win this competition. If this doesn’t bring tears to your eyes, you should probably check your pulse. I hope this inspires you as much as it did me.

So, today, thank you all for reading this through. I am grateful for the opportunity to have experienced some of my great passions today, through music, through writing (to you…thank you for being there to give me this vehicle) and through doing my part to inspire others.

Please do spend a little time with Paul Potts in the videos below. It will be well worth your time.

In the hope that this helps someone else find their passion today in the way it has helped me come back to a centered place in my own life.

Peace and Prosperity,

Jeff

How do you do it....???

"How do you do it, Jeff???...I don't know if I can actually accomplish everything I want!"

A few days ago, a potential coaching client was going through a laundry list of things she wanted to accomplish...all during this year, I might add...and she threw that question out to me with such conviction that I had to stop and think for myself...can the average person really learn the MasterMind Life Design process? I mean, I'm writing the book and audio program about it now, so it was a pretty important question to ask for my own clarity too. One of the beautiful things about coaching people is that you gain so much insight about yourself through the process of coaching others.

So, when I asked myself the question: Can the average person...can ANYONE learn this process? I got a big smile inside (and outside) when I realized that the answer to that question is...YES! A resounding YES...not just yes, but HELL YES! It's all about life management. MasterMind Life Design is my original coaching process that couples the concepts of the Law of Attraction with creating your MasterMind group and adds the most efficient and effective time/life management system I have come across to create your Ultimate Dream Life! Of course, along the way, there's a lot of real-life, down-to-earth insight about your business and your life.

You can learn more about MasterMind Life Design Coaching by visiting our web site: www.MasterMindMentor.com/coaching.html

But here's what I told my potential client during our initial Discovery Session:

"You can do it all. You can have it all. And you can be it all. But...you have to know what it is, prepare for it and it takes practice to break old habits and patterns. The best you can do is spend time each day in contemplation and reflection. Once you have discovered your dream, that is, what you WANT, versus what you DON'T WANT, it's okay to adjust it along the way. Make sure you're on track by reflecting on your day each day. Keep a clear vision, a 3-D Technicolor picture of your Ultimate Dream Life in your sights at all times. And spend some time each day focusing on getting BETTER. Improve your knowledge base. Listen to, watch or read something inspiring. Keep your mind in the right place and you'll keep your Ultimate Dream Life heading toward you. And don't forget to take inspired action. Learn to recognize opportunity, even if it's disguised as a challenge."

Through the MasterMind Life Design Coaching process, I can help you to hone in on what you really want and help you get there faster. And one thing I'm going to do right now is give you an opportunity to access part of my own personal library, at absolutely no charge to you. I think it's vitally important that you improve yourself and educate yourself on an ongoing and daily basis, so I'm giving you an entire library to get your started. Just go to: www.EnterTheMasterMind.com and you'll be taken right in…

I'm going to be giving away some free coaching time in the next few days too, so come back and check out the blog to learn how you can earn your way to a full month of MasterMind Life Design Coaching sessions.

Until next time, I wish you all the very best in everything you pursue…and remember, YOU CAN HAVE IT ALL!

Peace and Prosperity,

The Law of Attraction...Keyword: ACTION!

Greetings MasterMinds!

The Law of Attraction has practically become a household word nowadays, hasn't it? The Secret, The Science of Getting Rich, Pass It On and the list goes on and goes. Oh, and there is so much more coming down the line. Can't you just feel it? We have reached that time in human evolution that the collective consciousness is shifting and people are coming to the realization that they do in fact have some control over what happens in their lives.

Life isn't just some random series of events. Whether we choose to do it consciously or just let our thoughts drift from one thing to the next, the fact remains that we are creating our own reality as we go. And since that is the case, doesn't it make sense to create our lives in the most conscious and intentional way possible?

So, for those of us who have studied "prosperity consciousness" for long periods of time and still come out wondering why things are not quite lining up as we intended, perhaps one little missing key to this magical formula is going to help move that process along.

When I first started this journey toward creating my dream life about 30 years ago, after reading Napoleon Hill's classic Think and Grow Rich as a junior in high school, I have absorbed everything I could get my hands on with regard to the fine art of creating wealth, prosperity and the perfect dream life. I still do it. Okay, I admit it, my name is Jeff and I'm a personal development addict!

In my 30's, studying the more metaphysical side of prosperity consciousness I learned that I must visualize my dream, or my desired outcome. Meditate, pray and visualize. But even when I would visualize myself into a stupor, I didn't always get what I had intended. Why is that?

Well, part of the problem was that the underlying message in that "new age" version of prosperity consciousness was that visualization was the key to creation. But there was a piece of the puzzle missing.

In fact, it wasn't until I read The Science of Getting Rich a few years ago that the pieces all began to come together. It dawned on me that while I was sitting in meditation, opportunities and the right people to bring them to fruition were calling out to me but I was not practicing the KEY ELEMENT of the Law of Attraction. Silly me, it's even right there in the words…Law of AttrACTION.

Right there is was, in front of my face, ACTION, ACTION, ACTION! Take inspired action. When the opportunities arise, take action. When the people show up, take action. The Universe conspires to bring you what you want but it is up to us to take ACTION and bring it all come together in the form of our desired reality.

Try adding that one little bit to the magic equation that we call The Law of Attraction. Notice when things show up. Be aware and ready. Expect miracles to happen and you will see them. As Mr. Wattles put it in his classic 1910 masterpiece The Science of Getting Rich: "It is a mathematical certainty."

And by the way, don't forget to accept all this in complete Gratitude…but more on that later…

Until next time, I wish you all the very best in all you pursue.

Peace and Prosperity,

Jeff
