Do You Take Your Expertise For Granted?

3 Comments

I’ve had an epiphany of sorts over that last week or so. Many of you have downloaded the Energetics of Attraction report and were either on the live teleclass calls, or listened to the MP3 recordings of them. If you haven’t, you can go get your free Energetics of Attraction Resource Package here:

But that’s not the reason for this post. No, there’s something much more interesting.

As I’ve been preparing to launch the new Energetics of Attraction Intensive - writing the report, leading the teleclasses, creating the curriculum and handouts, setting up the web pages - I’ve come to realize the extent to which I take my knowledge of the Human Energy Systems for granted!

I’ve been thrilled about the launch of this new program, but after reading through some of the questions that have come in and a phone conversation I had with one of my Mastermind Partners – a long-term Personal Development and Law of Attraction practitioner – I finally got that my understanding of and experience with the Human Energy Systems is rare, even in the personal development world.

I’ve been intensively studying the Human Energy Systems for over 12-years and sometimes I just forget that the knowledge and skills I possess are totally foreign to many (most?) people.

A while back, my friend Dawud Miracle started an interesting conversation by asking: Are You An Expert if You Can’t Share What You know?

It’s an important question. But before you can even get to that question, there’s another one that needs to be asked:

Are you an expert if you don’t acknowledge that you are?

We all have expertise. Every single one of you reading this is an expert at something. But because you are an expert at it - because it has become easy for you - you may well not even notice it.

A bird would not acknowledge that it was an expert flyer. He just flies!

A fish would not acknowledge that it was an expert swimmer. She just swims!

You probably don’t acknowledge that you’re an expert walker or breather or eater. But you are!

Of course you are an expert at other things as well, things that may not be quite so universal as walking or breathing!

But do you acknowledge your expertise? Do you accept that something you do is unique. Or do you take it for granted because it now comes so easily to you?

I learned my lesson. With over 12-years of active, intensive study into the practical applications of the Human Energy Systems I have achieved a high level of mastery. But as Dawud asked, “Am I an expert if I can’t share that knowledge?”

There is no definite, universal answer to that question. But for me, the answer is a resounding No!

After all, what use is mastery if it’s not shared?

So I have made a conscious decision to ramp up the level at which I share my knowledge of the Human Energy Systems.

The Energetics of Attraction Resource Package was the first step.

And the next step is the 6-week program: Basic Energy Awareness Skills for Deliberate Creators.

Where is your expertise? What unique wisdom, talent, knowledge or ability do you have that you take for granted?

Perhaps it is time for you to claim your expert status and share your wisdom with the world!

Free Teleclass - The Fulcrum Point

Leave a Comment

The Power of Positive Thinking is great… Until you get stuck on a deeply embedded, long-standing limiting belief. Then it can get a bit tricky.

Einstein pointed out that we can’t solve a problem at the same level of thinking or consciousness from which that problem was created. And yet, that’s what we usually try to do!

If we catch ourselves having a limiting thought, our first reaction is usually to try to change the thought. It can work, but it takes a lot of work, a lot of time, and a lot of diligence.

There’s a simpler way:

Shift to another level of perception.

Our thoughts are energy. So too are our emotions, physical sensations and intuitive perceptions. And every thought has a thread that ties it to every other perceptual level.

So if you move from the level of thought to the level of, say, emotion, and find the thread from that limiting thought, you can change the energy at the level of emotion which immediately creates a similar change in the energy of the thought.

Learning to move easily, gracefully and intentionally between your perceptual levels is an important skill to master if you want to be the Deliberate Creator of your life!

Later today (April 23rd) I’m offering a free teleclass on The Fulcrum Point a simple but extremely effective technique that can help you shift your perspective and find the perceptual level that will allow you to change those difficult thoughts and enhance your ability to attract your desires.

When you register for this free call you will also be given access to The Energetics of Attraction resource page which includes the free report: The Harmonics of Human Awareness and the recording from the teleclass, 3 Simple Tools to Enhance Your Intuition and Accelerate Your Attraction.

To save your seat in today’s class and get instant access to the resource page, just fill out the form below.

And even if you can’t make today’s class, go ahead and sign up anyway. The call will be recorded and I’ll let you know when the recording is posted.

[Update: The live teleclass has already happened. But you can sign up to receive the free Energetics of Attraction Resource Package which includes an MP3 recording of both teleclasses as well as the report: The Harmonics of Human Awareness. Just fill out the form below to get instant access to these valuable resources!]

Earth Day, A New Earth, And Energetics

4 Comments

My daughter and I had a great day at our local Earth Day festival on Sunday. Compostable balloons from Whole Foods, Seed Balls from a local summer camp, some great music and our awesome Sunday farmer’s market combined for an awesome celebration. In the afternoon I planted some salad greens, sunflowers (volunteers from the compost pile) and more broccoli in our garden.

I love days like that and I embrace the belief that “every day is Earth day!” It’s not always easy to act in ways that feel nurturing to the Earth. But by staying conscious about our relationship to this planet, our home, we can begin to live and act as if today and every day is Earth Day.

There was a beautiful coincidence - if you believe in such things - in the timing of this week’s A New Earth webcast with Eckhart Tolle and Oprah. This week’s discussion focused on the discovery and exploration of Inner Space and the stillness you find there.

This is what Tolle writes about Stillness:

Stillness is really another word for space. … You are never more essentially, more deeply, yourself than when you are still. When you are still, you are who you were before you temporarily assumed this physical and mental form called a person. You are also who you will be when the form dissolves. When you are still, you are who you are beyond your temporal existence: consciousness—unconditioned, formless, eternal.

A New Earth - Oprah and Eckhart TolleIt is through stillness that we can truly connect with the Earth. It is from our Inner Space that we can see the Earth not as an object but as a Being. From within the Stillness we can connect and communicate with and learn from the Earth.

The Earth is an amazing teacher! She has taught me much about the Law of Attraction. The Earth is the ultimate Deliberate Creator.

One of the reasons that many people struggle to attract their desires is because they focus on sending their intentions “out” to the Universe. In order to attract things in the physical world it is equally important to send those intentions “down” into the physical Earth. The Earth provides the medium within which your desires will become “real.”

The ability to ground our desires into the Earth was one of the tools we explored in the free Energetics of Attraction teleclass last week. If you missed it you can access the recording on the Energetics of Attraction Resource Page.

You’ll also get access to the free report on the Harmonics of Human Awareness. I agree with what Eckhart says in the quote below. When you are detached, or I prefer to call it fully present on all levels of perception, not locked in at one level of awareness, you experience and enjoy life more fully!

Being detached does not mean that you cannot enjoy the good that the world has to offer. In fact, you enjoy it more. … When you are detached, you gain a higher vantage point from which to view the events in your life instead of being trapped inside them. You become like an astronaut who sees the planet Earth surrounded by the vastness of space and realizes a paradoxical truth: The earth is precious and at the same time insignificant.

What steps will you take today to explore your Inner Space, honor the Earth and fully enjoy all the good this world and this life has to offer?

Had a great call on the Energetics of Attraction last night. There were participants from my very own town all the way across the world in Australia and Fiji. I love it when technology actually works!

On this call, we explored a simple technique for separating your energy from other people’s and a way to ground your intentions into the Earth. We also looked at why it’s important to ground your intentions into the Earth and not just send them “out” to the Universe.

But we ran out of time before getting to the third tool - The Fulcrum Point. So I’ve added a second free teleclass on Wednesday, April 23rd from 4:30 - 5:30pm Pacific Time.

Get OUT of My Space!

4 Comments

Get OUT of My Space!

No, not you!

But, hopefully that got your attention.

Have you ever said that to someone? Have you ever wanted to say that to someone?

Most of us have probably felt that way once or twice in our lives… or maybe once or twice in the last hour!

We all have different personal space requirements. Some of us need a lot of alone time and like to maintain our physical and emotional distance. Others prefer being in social situations and being close to other people.

Our personal space requirements are also influenced by our cultural background. Different cultures have different personal space requirements.

Here’s what the website Edupass tells foreign students about our personal space requirements here in the U.S.

When two people are talking to each other, they tend to stand a specific distance apart. Each person has an invisible boundary around their body into which other people may not come. [Italics mine.] If someone pierces this boundary, they will feel uncomfortable and move away to increase the distance between them. (The major exception is family members and other loved ones.) This personal distance is not due to body odor or bad breath, but because closeness lends a sense of intimacy that is at odds with their relationship to the other individual.

Interestingly, the average personal distance varies from culture to culture. Americans tend to require more personal space than in other cultures. So if you try to get too close to an American during your conversation, he or she will feel that you are “in their face” and will try to back away. Try to be aware of this, so if the person to whom you are speaking backs away a little, don’t try to close the gap.

Also, try to avoid physical contact while you are speaking, since this may also lead to discomfort. Touching is a bit too intimate for casual acquaintances. So don’t put your arm around their shoulder, touch their face, or hold their hand. Shaking hands when you initially meet or part is acceptable, but this is only momentary.

Apparently we are getting a reputation for being a bit stand-offish here in the U.S.

So what is that “invisible boundary” they mention?

Well there is much more to your “space” than meets the eye. Your personal space is more than your body, more than your room or your office or your home. Your personal space includes your personal energy space as well, and it’s very possible for someone to be in your energy space even when they’re not around.

Have you ever felt that someone is “in your space” even when they are not anywhere near you?

I know there have been times when I have felt my parents in my space even though they are 2000 miles away!

I also know that I maintain a connection with my daughter even when she’s not around.

The connection itself is not a bad thing. In fact it can sometimes be a very good thing. There are times when having a non-physical connection with others is important and beneficial.

At other times, especially when the connection is made without awareness, it can feel stifling, controlling, overwhelming, or even suffocating.

And it’s at those times – when you feel controlled or suffocated – that it would be good to have some tools and techniques for disconnecting from others.

Now depending on how sensitive you are, having someone “in” your personal energy space can feel just as intense as having someone literally standing “in your face.”

There have been times in my life when those energetic connections have felt more intense!

Fortunately, I’ve learned some techniques to limit the intensity of those connections and create healthy energetic boundaries.

One of the most powerful tools I’ve learned is called Neutral Separations. It’s a deceptively simple technique that instantly reduces the impact of any dysfunctional energetic connections you have with other people.

If you’re interested in learning how to use this technique in your life, I’d love to have you join me for a free teleclass later today.

You’ll not only discover how to use Neutral Separations, you’ll also learn a simple tool for grounding your intentions into the physical world, as well as a technique to help you instantly shift your perspective.

The call is today (Wednesday April 16th) from 4:30 – 5:30 pm Pacific Time (7:30 – 8:30 Eastern).

You can register for the call at the Energetics of Attraction website.

And if you have any questions, leave a comment below.

3 Simple Solutions to Your Law of Attraction “Problems” – Free Teleclass

Leave a Comment

Sometimes we make things more complicated than they need to be. Well, I’ll speak for myself: Sometimes I make things more complicated than they need to be. I’m sure you’ve heard the phrase: “The simplest solution to a problem is usually the best one.”

Well tomorrow (Wednesday, April 16th, 2008) I’m offering a free teleclass where I will share three simple solutions that can help you solve some of your Law of Attraction “problems.”

What problems am I talking about? Here are some of the issues that these 3 simple tools will address.

  • I’m great at visualizing what I want, but I have a hard time translating that vision into reality.
  • I know what I want but I’m not sure what actions to take.
  • I know what I “should” be doing to attract my desires, but I have a hard time staying focused.
  • It’s difficult for me to get clear on what I really want.
  • I sometimes feel like my desires are not really mine – almost as if someone else is planting their desires inside of me.
  • I tend to get stuck on a limiting thought or belief – like a broken record.
  • Sometimes I get so bogged down in emotions that I can’t even think straight.

If any of these sound familiar to you this free teleclass can help. During this one-hour call I’ll share three simple tools that can instantly change the way you work with the Law of Attraction.

And unlike some tools, these are not just simple, they’re also easy!

On this call you’ll learn:

  • How to simply AND easily separate your personal energy from other people’s energy (OPE). This one simple technique can literally change your life overnight.
  • Why sending your intentions “out to the Universe” is not enough and how to GROUND those intentions into the physical Earth!
  • How to instantly shift your perspective and increase your personal vibration.

So whether you’re struggling with your ability to attract your desires, or just want to take your deliberate creation to the next level, this teleclass will help you.

It’s completely free, but space is limited, so go sign up now!

But you can sign up to receive the free Energetics of Attraction Resource Package which includes an MP3 recording of both teleclasses as well as the report: The Harmonics of Human Awareness.

A Microsoft Vista Lesson In Perfectionism

7 Comments

I woke up this morning all excited to publish Part 2 of my free report: The Energetics of Attraction: Understanding and Applying the Harmonics of Human Awareness to Compose the Life You Desire. (If you haven’t read Part 1, you can get it here).

Yesterday, I spent over 4-hours “finalizing” the document. I added the section on the role of the subconscious in attraction, made revisions based on feedback I received, and added the layout elements including all the callouts and quotes.

So imagine my surprise this morning when I fired up my computer, started Word and got to the quick launch menu and saw no sign of my revised file! I spent a few minutes poking around, but rather than get completely stressed before my morning yoga class, I took a deep breath and walked downtown for some hot yoga.

After returning from yoga I searched everywhere on the internal hard drive, external hard drive, and flash drives. I’ve looked for the autorecover files. And I’ve searched Google on the slight chance that Vista has some glitch (no snide comments please!) that makes files just disappear.

No luck.

The file is gone.

So, either I had a major hallucinatory/out-of-body experience for those 4-plus-hours yesterday, or Vista/Word decided to eat that file. Either way, I can’t say that I’m thrilled!

However, being a Law of Attraction practitioner, I’m taking a lot of deep breaths and looking for the positive and the lesson in this.

One big positive is that, aside from the brief moment when I considered smashing the computer, I have remained relatively calm during this process. I haven’t whined (too much). I haven’t screamed (thought about it). I haven’t found a “Microsoft is the antichrist” website to rant on (hadn’t actually thought of that one until just now. Maybe… Nah!)

In fact, as I write this, I actually have a silly grin on my face and feel pretty good. (Check in with me again when I’m 2-hours into making those revisions again!)

Now, as for the lesson… Can you say “perfectionists anonymous?” Sure, as a coach and trainer, I encourage people to let go of perfectionism and get more done. But that’s still a life lesson I’m actively working on.

If you have already downloaded and read part 1 of the report you know that Part 2 was supposed to be done last week. Didn’t happen. Yesterday, I planned to publish it by lunchtime. Didn’t happen. So when I “finished” it around 9:00pm last night, I thought, since it was “too late” to publish it, that I would give it one more read through this morning before sending it out.

I guess that was one too many versions and the computer gods conspired to give me a gentle reminder that next time I should focus on getting it done, not perfect!

Are you a perfectionist? Do you tend to take your projects one, two or more versions beyond where they need to go? What would happen if you “finished” your project in 3 versions instead of 5? How much time would you save? How much sooner would people have access to it? How much more money would you make?

Vista is a prime example! Do you think the project managers at Microsoft knew there were bugs in Vista when they released it? Absolutely. Did they find a good balance between getting it right and getting it done? I suppose it depends on which desk you’re sitting at. If you’re in the accounting office at Microsoft, I’m sure you’re feeling pretty good about Vista being out in the world. If you’re sitting at home pulling your hair out, you may not agree!

But Microsoft aside, I’m going to challenge you, and I’m challenging myself as well, to focus on “finishing” your projects - blog posts, reports, presentations, art projects, songs, etc. - in at least one fewer drafts than you normally would.

Don’t do what I did last night and say, “I’ll just give this one more read in the morning.” Get it out the door so that you can move on to the next project.

Does this mean that some mistakes will get through? You bet. Is it the end of the world? No!

In my case, a few typos in a free report isn’t going to make someone say, “Look, there’s a typo. I’m not going to read any more of this stuff!” And, honestly, if someone is going to be turned off by some typos, I’d rather they move on to someone else’s free report!

So here’s my promise to you: I will have Part 2 of The Energetics of Attraction: Understanding and Applying the Harmonics of Human Awareness to Compose the Life You Desire published by Noon pacific time… Today! That gives me two hours to redo the revisions, quotes and other layout elements. (Now it’s 1 hour and 53 minutes because I just did a quick proof of this post!)

If you haven’t downloaded Part 1 of the report, go get it now.

And then watch for an email at Noon announcing Part 2!

Is The World Ready For Mind-Control Marketing?

4 Comments

Mark Joyner thinks so!

Tomorrow night at 8:00pm he is re-releasing his bestselling book, Mind Control Marketing: How Everyday People are Using Forbidden Mind Control Psychology and Ruthless Military Tactics to Make Millions Online.

This book hit #1 on Amazon within 36-hours of its release. And since it’s been out-of-print, used copies have sold for as much as $500! I just checked Amazon and the cheapest copy available right now is $198. (That price will most likely drop pretty dramatically as people hear about this offer!)


Now Mark is releasing a downloadable version for just $27!

This version will also include the “missing chapter.” Apparently there was some important material that was left out of the original version.

Now, I can’t say that I’m thrilled with the title of the book. As someone interested in bringing positive changes to the world, I would like to think that the marketing tactics I use do not fall into the “ruthless” category! However, I also believe that those of us who are bringing positive change to the world can learn a lot from studying and embracing some of the techniques and tactics that mainstream marketers use!

And yes, I realize that is another HUGE topic that I’m not going to open right now.

But if you are a business owner and are interested in learning about these “secret” mind control psychology tactics and how to use them to reach more people - with your positive, world-changing products and services - I suggest that you head over to www.MindControlMarketing.com and get on the list.
