I was in the locker room at the gym after an intense workout and playing on the TV was more coverage about Tiger Woods and his car wreck and the scandals of cheating etc.

Someone next to me probably trying to strike up a conversation said this to me “I would hate to be famous.” I asked him why and he said “So I wouldn’t have all that stuff happen to me.”

WHAT DRUGS IS THIS GUY TAKING?

Here is someone watching Tiger Woods and all the media on him and he thinks it would suck to be famous.

Hmmm…Maybe this guy in the gym (let’s call him Bob for now), Bob, doesn’t realize how much good someone ‘famous’ can do. Maybe Bob doesn’t realize that ‘famous people’ do a lot of good.

Money is a RESULT! Result of what? It is a result of providing valuable services and products to people who want them. Money is the result of solving people’s problems and getting paid to do it. Fame is also a result of similar things. So being famous means you have either done a lot of bad, but usually it means you have done a tremendous amount of good in the world.

So let’s look at Tiger. Has he made some mistakes…yes. Do we all make mistakes….Yes! Has Tiger done some good in the world….YES. Do you think he’s done as much good if not more than Bob in the gym…obviously YES!!!!

Which leads me to the point. Saying something as foolish, ignorant and stupid as “I would hate to be famous” shows me a few things.

1. Bob’s paradigm is set for low success and mediocrity

By him uttering the words “I would hate to be famous because I wouldn’t want all that type of attention on me and my family” shows and tells me that he likes to play small. How does playing small in the world help other people? How does playing small help other people, or help the community. IT DOESN’T! Playing small helps nobody! It doesn’t even help the competition because good competition helps to stimulate one to become his or her very best! Therefore all the competition in the world only helps YOU to be your BEST and what the world needs is YOU to be YOUR BEST!

Unless Bob changes his paradigm about what success, fame, fortune and money his life is doomed to mediocrity and quiet desperation. Unless Bob changes his paradigm about being ‘famous’…his life is in trouble. You don’t have to be famous Bob, but you do have to be your BEST and you never know, you just might be famous and you just might help an enormous amount of people!

2.  Bob is very selfish

How in the world do you expect to help people out if you only think about yourself? Truth is that you don’t help too many people when you are only focused on what you want.

People who are ‘famous’ have opportunities to help people in tremendous ways. Bill Gates and Warren Buffet…very FAMOUS people and huge Creators who contribute, and make the world a better place. How can you contribute with empty pockets?

To not want to be famous because reporters might be at your house…are you freaking kidding me Bob? Quit being selfish. Discover your talents and abilities and gifts and maximize them to create value in the world today. Maximize them to build a better community. Maximize them to create value period! Playing small sucks! Playing small is selfish. Playing small is destructive. Yep, I said it. And please don’t get ‘humility’ and playing small mixed up. They DO NOT mean the same thing at all. In fact, humility has nothing to do with playing small. That’s for another blog though.

3. The Majority Today Live Like Bob

I wouldn’t want more money or success or to be ‘famous’ because look at all the crap celebrities and athletes and movie stars and rich people go through. Look my friend, whether you have money, fame or you don’t, you’re going to go through crap. Life has a way of testing and trying us. It just does and no one is an exception to this rule. Having an abundance of money doesn’t exclude you from the trials of life.

If you cheat on your spouse because you have a lot of money, I guarantee you would cheat on your spouse PERIOD whether you have money or not.

If you are a kind giving person with no money, then money just allows you to give a heck of a lot more.

So is it bad to be famous? Of course not!

Yes Bob, look at the Foundations and Charities wealthy people contribute to. Look at the poor people in Africa they help. Look at the scholarship they provide. Look at the buildings the build to educate students. Look at the research on cancer they contribute to. Look at the lives they change and affect. Look at the kids and adults they inspire. The list is endless…Yes, Bob, I would hate to be ‘famous.’ (I’m being completely sarcastic)

Words Are Powerful…They Reveal Our Inner Thoughts

Take a good look at the words you use and what you say and how you say it. Are you saying ridiculous things like Bob at

the gym?

Do you say things like…

“I wouldn’t want a big house because look how long it would take to clean.”

“I wouldn’t want a big driveway and lots cars…too much snow shoveling and the insurance and payments must be horrendous.”

“I don’t need an extravagant lifestyle….I am happy with where I am at.”

“Being rich is only for some people…I could never be rich and famous.”

“I don’t think it’s possible to do what I love to do and get paid to do it.”

If you say things like this you need to CHECK YOURSELF! What type of paradigm are you living by? What beliefs are you subscribing to right now?

I guarantee if you think like Bob your life right now is way below the potential line! If you say things like the statements above then your belief system (your paradigms) are ROBBING YOU AND KEEPING YOU POOR, BROKE AND UNHAPPY!

The last line UNHAPPY is the KEY. For a Creator, happiness is the ultimate ambition! For Destroyers money and things are the ultimate ambition.

So What’s Next?

Look at the results of your life today….if you are completely in love with your life and the results…then keep doing what you are doing.

If you want change and different results…comment and I will tell you EXACTLY HOW YOU CREATE A LIFE YOU CAN LIVE THAT IS ENTIRELY ON YOUR OWN TERMS!

Life is too short to live in poverty, mediocrity and in fear!

You can do it and if you don’t think you can…then you know darn well you’re in trouble and need the shift in your thinking!

One moment I have nearly

half a million dollars worth of

cars in my garage.

One moment I have flat screens, plasma screens and DLP tvs in my home.

One moment I have a Gold AMEX card that has no pre-set spending limit and over 600,000 points to use.

One moment I can by breakfast for all my youth group, I can donate to charities, church and scholarships…I can travel and buy almost anything I wants…One moment money is no issue whatsoever…staying at any hotel on the top floors…

And then one moment I literally have

no money and am trying to figure out

how to pay bills and keep the electricity on.

It’s bad enough that I am embarrassed because one moment I am talking about how abundant and good life is. I am speaking across the country about how to become wealthy and how to grow your assets…its bad enough that I am humiliated because as people ask me where my Benz is, or where the Denali is, or where the Escalade is I have no definite answer…

So how did we get through it all and get to where we are now? During the foreclosures and the repossession of cars this is what happened.

I could spend hours writing and telling about it. In fact I will do that in my next book that I write. I have one book down called MoneyBoxSystems and more to come.

One of my goals is to have a legitimate #1 New York Times Best Seller by December 2010. So yes I have my work cut

out for me. For a Creator once the commitment has been made…it’s OVER, SAID AND DONE! So #1 list…here I come.

According to the Encarta Dictionary Liquidation means to pay debt, shut down business, cash in assets or to kill somebody

In my case it meant…sell anything of value to put food on the table because 1-the mortgage and real estate industry hit me hard when it imploded and 2-I wasn’t prepared for what happened.

Believe me when I say I will be prepared.

Liquidating To Survive

So I began liquidating what I owned. First it was the Samsung 65 inch DLP that we had watched T.V. on, home videos and seasons of Smallville. I threw in the stand, the sound system and the DVD player.

Next went the Samsung 42 inch Plasma. Then the Sony 42 inch LCD with the heavy duty wall mounts.

I let go of my Korg Triton (the Lamborgini of Keyboards, or in my case, the Mercedes of Keyboards). I purchased this for $3k. This is what the big boys use in the studios and in the performances you see on the Grammys or MTV Video awards. I sold it for $1500 on ebay to a church in Tennessee. Right now a church is using my keyboard and they got it for a steal of a deal. I am happy it is being put to good use and for a great purpose.

I sold my Takamine guitar to a young boy who found me on KSL. I was grateful that he bought it. He had a disease so I felt much better about letting him live his life out with my Takamine.

I could go on and on about what I sold but my point is this…when you need something, THERE IS ALWAYS A WAY. Tables, beds, pictures, jewelry etc. Yes, I call it liquidation but it can also be called:

• • Simplification
• Humbling
• Being stripped
• Being born again
• Learning divine lessons
• Giving others a great deal

When I write my next book I’ll describe in detail how the LIQUIDATION part of my Defining and Refining Years was indeed just that…defining and refining.

I paid cash for everything when I bought it and now it was coming in handy to liquidate everything so I could have cash. I almost sold my fridge and I would have bought a cheaper fridge.

My question to you is this…Are there things in your life that you need to get rid of? What can you strip yourself of and get rid of to make your life more simpler? If you are broke have you thought about liquidating and simplifying?

Just recently I sold two beds to get down to a workshop. Yep, I wanted to attend a workshop in San Diego that would further my business and my ability to create and produce so I sold my queen size Ikea bed and my King Size guest bed.

I sure loved those beds but someone else needed them more than me because I wanted the funds to get to California. I drove to California and then maximized the trip and the workshop because I knew I sacrificed a lot to be there.

There is nothing embarrassing about this right now.  At first I felt like a FAILURE. At first I was ashamed. But now, I am GRATEFUL for how my life is being shaped. It’s never what happens to us, always what happens inside of us.

What great lessons I am learning through all of this!

One lesson I have learned is that when I want to buy anything from now on I will always go and look on Craigslist or KSL or on eBay. I have sold something on each of those services and people got great deals, like 50% off.

It’s just a matter of time before I have my multi-million dollar empire again (as a result of creating real value and helping people) and of course the whole purpose of having money in today’s world is to utilize it to create more value and to help more people and to give back.

Money is result and also a tool. I want that empire not just for lifestyle but mainly for CONTRIBUTION. I know what it is like to be on the side that can donate generously.  That’s what it is all about right? Using what you have to benefit other people.

We can have and live the life we commit to. Prosperity is NEVER by chance or accident. NEVER!

So what are you committed to?

If your intention is just to get by…well my friend…that is exactly what you are going to get…you’ll get by. If you could have whatever you chose to go after and pay the price for…what would you go after?

I’ve been stripped down to some bare necessities and will give it all up if that is what I must do.

Through all of this I have been developing the mindset of the Creator…an UNSTOPPABLE Belief System…a bullet proof mentality…the heart of a champion. My action muscles and commitment muscles are stronger than ever. There is something about adversity.

You either get weak and succumb or you get up and fight. You get up and work. You get up and build and rebuild and persist. “I will persist until I succeed.”

I truly believe we can create profitable businesses in today’s market because of that thing called…the Internet. That too is another story. By the way, I am building that profitable business this very moment.

I am happy. I am grateful. I will not be stopped.

I am the man who loves his life.

TO BE CONTINUED…

Setema Gali

P.S. I’ve had people tell me that I shouldn’t write about this right now. My response is WHY NOT? Should I pretend that life is amazing and that I am the perfect businessman who has all the answers? Life is amazing indeed…

I am building a business…just like Trump, just like Kiyosaki…just like Gates in his garage…just Ford…just like Vaynerchuk…just like Dillard in Texas…just like Roundy in Utah and just like every other Creator out there who did what it took to build their dreams and to create and add value to the lives of others REGARDLESS OF CIRCUMSTANCE AND REGARDLESS OF SITUATION!

“…to dwell on circumstances and situations as they are only leads to doubt and worry.”

“Faith is the knowledge of things that are true which are not seen.”

Walt Disney saw Disney World before it was ever built. I too see the company I am building and it will literally change hundreds and thousands and millions of lives.

CREATE!

Just over a year ago I gave up my final car. I went from 6 cars on my credit to zero cars in the garage. The REPO game beat me. Let me explain…

It was 2006 and I had made the real estate  millions. I’ve always been a goal setter and a goal getter. I had set goals and I had reached them.

What a year! Money was no issue at all. My wife and I would travel and never worry about money. We would stay in the Venetian or Bellagio in Vegas. We flew first class (on our credit card points) and I had a nice car collection going as well as a nice real estate portfolio.

I attended a seminar and was pretty convinced that I should buy a nice car. Yes, every single human being buys into a set of beliefs and philosophies. Some are useful and some are helpful. Some must be in the right context or you’ll be in

trouble.

My question to you is WHAT BELIEFS AND PHILOSOPHIES HAVE YOU BOUGHT INTO?

What beliefs and philosophies have you bought into and that you are holding onto right now?

It was September of 2006. I set a goal to create enough passive income to pay for my dream car. I had always wanted  this car. It was the Mercedes Benz S65 AMG. Pricetag…$200k. Yep, enough to buy a home. 30 days later I bought it. I put a large chunk of cash down and drove off in this unreal vehicle.

I bought my wife a 2008 Range Rover SuperCharged HSE before I bought my car though. I would set the goal, figure it out and then get it.

Price tag for the Range…$90k. Yep, very expensive and to this date the smoothest ride I have ever driven.

Several months later I bought an Escalade EXT. I loaded it up. Dropped it, slapped 24 inch rims on there ($6k), put a Strut Grill on there ($6k) and covered the interior with Suede headliner.  Oh yeah, I also had two fat 11 inch monitors in the head rests. (what was I thinking? Good lessons learned)

I also had six homes on my credit because I was buying and selling real estate frequently at this time. I also had a lot of hard money deals that I had brokered.

I had my own little banking system going. I lent out over $350k of my own money and made it all back with interest. As many financial gurus say “You’re either earning interest or you’re paying it.” At this time I was making a lot of it.

Then in the spring of 2007 I received a phone call from one of my investment guys and the whole thing collapsed. Half of my income was gone.

A month later I received another call and the news almost gave me a heart attack. Between the two investments I lost over $750k of mine and other people’s money. Yes, $750k.

I thought to myself “I can still do mortgages and real estate.” So I went back to my bread and butter of real estate and mortgages. I had investors and I was ready to become the real estate tycoon I once was before I got lazy from investments. I couldn’t have been more wrong.

It was at this time that the mortgage industry began to implode. All my systems and models of money were built on the ability to buy and sell quickly. My model of business was built on the ability of everyone else to be able to buy or sell quickly. I wasn’t ready for what was going to happen.

I was aggressive. I bought into different philosophies about leveraging everything you have. I bought into philosophies that weren’t quite congruent with my inner beliefs but I needed to learn some things that hard way for that is probably the only way I would have learned it. A great question to ask yourself often is “Is what I am doing working?”

My credit was clean and immaculate. I had used my credit for many things.

By the time 2007 ended, I had lost, been defrauded, been ripped off and had stolen from me over a million dollars of my own and other people’s money (close family and friends who chose to invest with me in my businesses.)

This was one of the most challenging times in my life.

I was forced to be humble. I was praying, studying, fasting and doing everything I knew that I could to have God’s help to prevent everything from happening but things continued to spiral downwards.

I ended up giving all the cars back even though I spent so much money on down payments and payments. It’s called REPOSESSION!

Every home I owned was so upside down I was unable to sell and the foreclosure process began on each one. I tried short-sales but I was so discouraged, depressed and humiliated at the time I was as unproductive as anyone ever was.

By the time 2008 rolled around I had no cars and no homes. I was embarrassed. I was humiliated. I was angry. I was upset. Not at anyone but me. I chose to take responsibility and not blame others even though they straight lied to my face. Partners walked away from me (even though they were 50/50 from the start with me.)

Through all of this God’s hand was clearly in my life even though it was challenging. I was fasting weekly, attending the temple weekly, praying and pleading with the Lord.

It was bad enough that I made bad choices that affected me, but the family and friends and partners who trusted me with their money for business…I was unable to sleep at night. I was so depressed and discouraged. The craziest thoughts come to your mind when everything around you is crumbling.

How do I support my wife and my son?

How do I pay the bills?

Which bills do we completely ignore and which do we pay?

How are we going to put gas in the car?

How are we going to eat?

Earlier I had an average six-figure balance in my bank accounts for nearly 18 months. It’s funny how things can change so fast.

“Be still and know that I am God” was a scripture that stayed in my mind and in my heart.

It was very humiliating to go from driving the cars I had and always being the one to pick up the tab or the one to donate funds or the one to taking care of the sub for santas to being the person on the other side of the table.

What would other people think about me? Would they make fun of me? Would they call me a failure?

Having all the homes foreclose and the cars repossessed was another valuable and important step in my becoming the man God would have me become. I was humbled and it is only when we are humble that we can be led and taught.

I was given the opportunity to know what it was like to have a family and to not have income. I was given the opportunity to feel what poor or broke people feel.

I was very foolish at times when I had an abundance of resources. When you have lots of money in the bank and you’re driving expensive cars and making lots of money, you have a tendency to tell people things like “Come on, live in abundance, read this book, change your life…it’s that easy”

In these type of statements were pride, arrogance and a lack of love and empathy.

Having been on this side now (broke, no income and humiliated) I understand completely and much better that there is something called depression and discouragement. It’s so hard to get out of bed in the morning when you have no hope or no sight of things to come.

I thought I was humble and understanding when I was driving my $200k car but there was definitely some self-deception there and thankfully God knows when to give me tough love and divine tutoring.

Have you bought into philosophies that are not useful?

Are you deceiving yourself into thinking you’re humble and you’re really not?

Can you recognize God’s hand in your life and do you allow Him to mold and shape you?

Like clay in a the master’s hand, the only way he can mold it is if the clay is SOFT. If the clay turns hard there is a brutal process that the clay must go through in order to be fashioned.

Soft humble hearts is what one must have to overcome and learn from the challenges of life.

By November 2008 I lost all my cars and my six homes around the country.

This was the relocation and repossession part of my refining years.

Not only did we relocate, my heart was relocated to a more humble state of being. No only were my physical belongings repossessed, my materialistic natural man inside of me was taken which allowed a greater awakening inside of me to become the Life-Changer that I have always wanted to become.

P.S. It’s not what happens to us in life, it’s what happens INSIDE OF US that matters and we choose to be led by God or we can choose to wander in darkness by ourselves. I am grateful my wife kept me close and focused.

This was one of the most depressing times in my life. We went from Riches to Rags and it was very painful. I am happy and if I had to do it all over again…I would go through it again.

P.S.S. I used to say “I would never wish this upon anyone.” Well, I changed my mind. The past couple years have given me incredible perspective and have helped me to develop a trust in God that might not have come in another fashion.

P.S.S.S. I even changed my phone number because I was getting like 50 phone calls a day from creditors. Yes, I have felt and seen much of a side I had never experienced. It’s hard to have empathy for people who go through this if you have never gone through this.

Thank you Lord for teaching me and giving me an opportunity to know how to better help my brothers and sisters around the world.

I love it not because it’s easy. I love it not because I don’t have trials or have money challenges…I love my life because I choose to be a Creator, a value creator, a conributor, a man of love and a man of service and passion.

Exactly a year ago I moved my family from our home in Provo, UT. Although it was by choice to move we were highly motivated to move. I had lost my job, my companies, my investments, my partners and more importantly my pride. We were being kicked out by the bank because our home had foreclosed.

It was the week of Thanksgiving 2008 and my entire family helped us move. Neighbors and people from our ward helped us pack up, load up and relocate.

I was sad to leave. We had lived in this home for nearly two and a half years. It was our very first home plus I built it.

Many memories had been created in this home.

• The birth of our first child
• Numerous family parties
• Birthday parties
• Church activities with the youth
• Firesides in our home
• Family home evenings
• Countless prayers came from our home in Provo.

A good friend of mine offered his home to us. It was vacant and would foreclose within several months. I felt that it was the right place for us to go. It was a blessing from heaven.

I packed up our home and relocated to Highland, UT. I knew going into this home we only had 4 months there but my good friend said to take advantage of it. No rent for four months was a good thing.

Thanksgiving 2008 was unforgettable. We had just barely moved in to this temporary home and then ate at Golden Corral for Thanksgiving.

As a man, a provider, the protector and the presider of the home it is humiliating and embarrassing when you’re unable to provide for your family especially when you recently were able to provide abundantly for your family.

If you’ve experienced anytype of job loss, pay cut or challenge with the economy then you know exactly what I”m talking about.

One thing I’ve learned through all of this is that our faith will be tried and tested. We will be tried and tested, maybe refined and purified are the better choice of words.

I had a choice. I could either choose to learn, to be refined and to be humble or I could choose to be a victim, feel sorry for myself and blame others.

I chose the first.

It is moments like this that truly define who we are.

Are you choosing to be refined through your challenges or are you playing the victim role?

I often say “I am the man who loves his life.” I love my life, not because it’s easy and not because I don’t face challenges. I love my life because I clearly see God’s hand in it and the opportunity to become more like Him and His son.

The past two and a half years have been defining to say the least.

If you’re just barely getting by or scraping by day to day, paycheck to paycheck and relationship to relationship there are a few fundamental things wrong with YOU, not anything or anyone else but with YOU.

1. You are just a lazy person. If you are, then you deserve what you get. Lazy people know very well how to work. They work at being lazy. It takes work to be lazy. It takes work to not work.

2. You don’t know HOW TO get out of the rut which is still your fault because if you don’t know how, LEARN HOW. With the internet available, knowledge and information are so easily accessible you can ‘Google’ anything and have answers immediately. Learn how. Success is a learnable skill. Money is a learnable skill. Prosperity is a learnable skill.

Yes, you can LEARN how to make and manage more money. You can learn how to develop more meaningful relationships. You can learn how to build a business and how to attract customers and clients. You can learn how to build a site, create a blog and you can learn how to have people pay you for a members site. You can learn everything. You just have to want to learn and pay the price to learn it.

3. Your blueprint, paradigm, perception, values and belief systems are completely wrong. It’s like having a map of New York City that says New York City but it’s actually a map of Baltimore. You are doomed from the start. Your map, which I call a paradigm is your set of beliefs. If you consciously and subconsciously believe that the world is a scary place, a place of scarcity, lack, fear and horror, then the world you see is a place of scarcity, lack, fear and horror.

If your blueprint is wrong, you are going to fail no matter what you do. If the paradigm is rooted in myth, fallacy and lies then no matter how much money you have you’ll be miserable and no matter how much fame and success you experience you lose and no matter how hard you try and pray and work…you’ll fail.

I am not judging anyone for just getting by. There are times in my life that I have merely gotten by and it’s my fault. If you are ignorant and don’t know what you don’t know then yes, getting by is OK. But when you are well aware of the opportunities, the stewardship, the obligation and responsibility to not just get by, but to prosper and create value with what God has given you, then you must do more than just get by.

“A man filled with the love of God, is not content with blessing his family alone, but ranges through the whole world, anxious to bless the whole human race” Joseph Smith.  This is what being a Creator is all about.

I am creating a 4 disc set called Goal Setting and Goal Getting-You Get What You Want. It is the exact formula that I have used in setting and getting my goals. If you want a sample please email me at SG@MoneyBoxSystems.com and place in the subject -Sample of Goals

I have also written a book and a course for network marketers and small business owners. The whole object of the book is to teach people how to stop doing things that don’t work and actually work against you and start doing the things that allow you to build your customers and distributors without asking, begging and pitching. I also dispel the lies of business building and of signing distributors up as well as most of the myths that people live by that cause only misery and heart ache. Email me at SG@MoneyBoxSystems.com and put in the subject – Free Book Chapters and I will tell you how to get it.

Create the life you want…not the life you get by default.

I am the man who loves his life. Do you love yours and if not, what are you doing about it?

I often speak of changing your life and creating the life you want. This post is dedicated  specifically to covering one of the things I do daily to Create the Life I Truly Want and Love!

Spiritual Beings in a Physical Body

I believe we are spiritual beings having a physical experience. Therefore each day I have a choice to make. Either I choose to let my physical body govern me or I choose to let my spiritual body govern me. No matter what I did yesterday, I must choose each and every single day.

The major problem with allowing the physical body to govern is that it is a carnal and sensual being. It’s the EGO, or often times called the Natural Man (Mosiah 3:19). It’s like having a reptile in our mind and yes if unbridled and untamed can and will lead us to a path of unhappiness and misery. Look at the lives of people who allowed their ‘natural man’ or ‘natural woman’ guide them. The results are misery, unhappiness and pain.

The scriptures teach us “the natural man is an enemy to God…unless he yields to the enticings of the Holy Spirit, and putteth off the natural man…”

No matter how incredible one day is, it cannot sustain me for the next day. How do I put off the natural man and allow myself to have my Daily Divine Reset?

I choose to climb the mountain every single day!

Learning From the Great Prophets of the Past

Moses went to the tops of the mountain to pray and converse with God. There were no temples built in his time. It is in the tops of the mountain that he receive knowledge, understanding and wisdom.

No matter how spiritual one day is, we must have our daily divine reset, our power hour or what I call my Tops of the Mountain Experience. Nephi, (1 Nephi 18:3) another prophet of God was commanded to ‘get thee up into the mountain’ and it is there that the Lord spoke with him.

The Power of Prayer

Each morning I awake no matter how long my night was, no matter how tired I am, I have conditioned and trained my mind and heart to immediately pray. As my feet hit the floor I pray. I express gratitude to God. There’s saying prayers and then there is praying. There is a huge difference between going through the motions and really speaking with the

Lord.

I enter my office and get on my knees and offer up my humble cry to God, the Creator of worlds without number.

The Power of Study

I begin my studies. I study everything from the Book of Mormon, the Bible, the Ensign and other powerful literary works written and/or inspired by the finger of God.

Email me if you want to know the other books I am currently reading. Let me put is simply. I have read more books in any 6 month span right now than I did throughout high school and college COMBINED! Sad but true. I have changed since then. I love to learn.

The Power of Meditation

Usually after but not always after, I take time to meditate, visualize and ponder. Many blessings are promised to those who meditate, visualize and ponder. I visualize my goals. I visualize what I want. I visualize and ponder on the great things the Lord has already given me. I see my life as I want it and feel it as I am already in it.

There are numerous times the Lord visits those who are pondering and blesses them and opens up the heavens. I do a gratitude segment in my meditation where I express gratitude and get in the feeling of gratitude. It’s not like I haven’t faced adversity. Look at any one of my previous blogs and you’ll see it’s been a financial wilderness over the past 2.5 years but I am filled with gratitude for it. Gratitude and feeling the gratitude in full sincerity is POWER! When we are grateful we get into a vibration of gratitude it allows us to receive. “I am an EXCELLENT receiver.”

The Power of Keeping A Record

I keep a journal on my laptop as well as a handwritten brown covered journal that records my thoughts and inspiration through my study.  When we learn to record the inspiration from God and follow it, He gives us more. Click here for an amazing talk on this subject.

I pray fervently through my study. I allow the Spirit of God to touch my mind and inspire my heart. I then begin the ‘physical’ day of work, exercise, parenting duties etc.

When I begin my day in the ‘Tops of the Mountains’ I recharge my spiritual batteries. I plug-in to the source of happiness. I prepare myself for the pulls of the world.

Early To Bed Early To Rise

This quote comes from a talk click here for the full talk

“There is also a great value that can come to the early riser. Years ago my wife and I were driving with President and Sister Marion G. Romney. Along the way, President Romney shared some of his personal experiences when he was first called to serve as a General Authority in 1941. He felt he needed some advice, so he went to Elder Harold B. Lee, a new member of the Quorum of the Twelve. He asked him how to be a successful General Authority. Elder Lee answered, “Go to bed early and get up early. If you do, your body and mind will become rested, and then, in the quiet of those early morning hours, you will receive more flashes of inspiration and insight than at any other time of the day.”

This ‘climbing the mountain’  can be any amount of time. When I was still young in my spirituality climbing the mountain was quick. I now like to take between 30-60 minutes. If I could I would spend 2-3 hours reading, studying and meditating. If I get a late start in my day then it’s shorter nevertheless I still climb the mountain. If it’s only 10-20 minutes I still climb the mountain. The point is…CLIMB THE MOUNTAIN.

When I don’t climb the mountain and have the daily divine rest…well, it’s a very difficult road to travel the rest of the day. No matter whether I am in a hotel traveling or if I’ve stayed up late for my newborn son or to take care of my sick son or wife, I begin each day with the Tops of the Mountain experience.

What Do I Truly Want

I want power from God to be strong against the natural man inside of me. I desire greater patience, greater faith and greater humility. I want to be a light for my wife and children. I want to influence others to know Him who walked the shores of Galilee. I want to shine light on the path that others are traveling so they can feel the divine guidance that I feel and the warmth of the Saviors love which is all-encompassing.

Climb the Mountian and Experience It Yourself

Take Action Now

Those who never climb the mountain never get what I am talking about. Those who do climb the mountain daily know exactly what I am talking about. In fact we connect spiritually and verbally. There is an unsaid understanding and connection. Some call it spiritual maturity. Others call it spiritual power. Regardless of what it’s called, in order to experience the Tops of the Mountain…you MUST climb the mountain. The more you climb, the more power you receive.

It’s 5:16 AM now and I will finish my Tops of the Mountain Experience. Wouldn’t you love to begin your day in the Tops of the Mountain?

I’ll see you at the Top.

Please share your experience so that others may benefit!

I just finished watching Will Smith’s Pursuit of Happyness. It’s the story that is based on the true events from the life of Chris Gardener. I heard Chris speak two years ago and was deeply touched.

What an awesome movie! Inspiring and touching to say the least. I watched it twice in two days while working on my business.

It’s powerful because you have this man who will not quit not matter what.

You have this man who will not be distracted.

You have this man who will not fail regardless of the situations and the circumstances.

How many obstacles did he face?

His wife left him.

He was thrown in jail.

He was kicked out of his apartment.

He failed miserably at selling those machines.

He lived in shelters and on the streets.

He had little or no money at time.

He slept in bathrooms, on the street and endured.

I could go on and on.

What did I learn from the story of Chris Gardener played by Will Smith? I was reminded of many but I’ll share two.

1.  If you really want something, you’ll do anything and everything (ethical and moral) to obtain it.

At anytime in his life he could have quit and blamed it on circumstance, situation, other people, his wife, the color of his skin….BUT HE DIDN’T. People say they really want something  but when it comes to doing what it takes to get it, they won’t do it.

When I played football and wanted to be the best I could, I trained 4 days a week, ate like a horse, ran hard even through the pain of the lactic acid in my legs and even though my lungs felt like they were going to explode.

When I wanted to learn how to play the piano, I spent between 50-70 hours a week practicing. In the beginning of ANYTHING, all your energy and focus must be in the same direction.

When I committed to losing weight (which by the way i am 40 lbs lighter and down to 15% body fat) I didn’t let anything or anyone distract me.

How bad do you want what you want?

Do you even know what really want? Take time to write down exactly what you want and the price you’re willing to pay to do it.

If someone offering you a million dollars to shovel poop for 1 year 50 hours a week would you do it? Well, Chris Gardener shoveled the poop and kept shoveling so to speak. We all have a price to pay, are you willing to pay the price?

2.  Success Is A Decision, A Journey and a Result

Chris Gardener never let failure stop him. In fact, he learned from each ‘failure’ and continued to move forward. How many of us stop after one attempt and failure?  Sad to say most people in Chris’s situation would have failed and quit and given up.

Becoming the right person is the KEY. This right person is what I call becming a CREATOR!

A Creator does what he/she has committed to do NO MATTER WHAT.

A Creator doesn’t make reasons or excuses, they simply get the RESULT. It’s Reasons or Results, can’t be both.

A Creator creates maximum value in all situations regardless of circumstance. Are circumstances and situations stopping you from achieving and obtaining goals? If so, you’ll be stopped no matter what. If discomfort and fear of failure is holding you back from achieving massive success, you’ll be stopped all the time. If fear of what other people think is stopping you from doing what you feel would make a difference in the lives of others, you’ll be miserable most of your life.

Once you figure out exactly what you want, commit to it, set a plan, move forward, course correct and keep moving forward.

As seen in the movie, Chris Gardener NEVER STOPPED BELIEVING, MOVING AND WORKING. If you stop and quit, you fail. Remember that because in the journey of life most people stop and quit then wonder why their life is mediocre at best.

If you keep believing, keep moving, keep searching, keep asking, keep learning, keep working and keep enduring, you’ll find success.

Success is deliberately choosing what you truly desire, then embarking on that journey with a good plan in hand that most never take because of fear, doubt, lack and worry.

Success comes as a result of following the laws and principles that success is based upon. Success like everything else in life follows laws and principles.

Look at every successful person from family, relationships, sports, business, money and on and on. They all follow a set of guideliness and principles that aren’t secrets to most but most act like it’s a secret to find prosperity and success.

Here’s the bottom line:

Are you becoming the type of person who will succeed NO MATTER WHAT or will you make excuses and reasons as to why you can’t and shouldn’t succeed?

Are you willing to pay a hefty price to achieve happiness, prosperity and abundance or will you give in to the circumstances and situations of the daily rigors of life?

I already know how my story ends. I know what awaits me. It’s like watching a movie on the big screen. We knew Chris Gardner would succeed. It was just a matter of watching him go through the ups and downs of what he did to get there. For me, it’s just a matter of going through the script of the ’story’ to become that type of person who attracts and creates success. But I already know in my mind and heart how my life movie ends. This allows me to find joy each and every day.

Can you envision the story of your life and how it’s unfolding?

Do one thing today to make a change in your life. Be a person of your word. Set a goal and do it no matter what. Exercise. Read and study more. Pray more. Serve more. Throw aside the things that are keeping you from becoming a true Creator.

Yesterdays beliefs, thoughts, feelings and actions brought today’s results. Today’s beliefs, thoughts, feelings and actions bring tomorrow’s results.
