Recession Repellent (Have a Spray or Two)
First a quick disclosure: That title is from Mark Joyner, bestselling author and creator of Simpleology: The Simple Science of Getting What You Want. It’s from an email he just sent out this morning (May 12th). But if you read my previous post on the Burning Ring of Fire, you know I’ve been on a “coincidence” kick lately, so I had to share his email with you. But first a bit of background.
You probably also know that I’m getting ready to start the Energetics of Attraction 6-week teleseminar series: Basic Energy Awareness Skills for Deliberate Creators.
What you don’t know is that enrollment is going slower than I expected. Right now there are about half the number of people registered for the program than I had originally envisioned.
Now in the first few days after I opened the registration I was a bit concerned (more about that in a moment). But thanks to some great conversations with some of my leading edge, Deliberate Creator friends, I’m no longer concerned. And in fact, because of these conversations I’ve put a cap on the program enrollment and there are just 6 spaces left.
Here’s why I’m not worried:
First, people are notoriously last minute when it comes to signing up for programs like this and it’s likely that several more people will join us by the time the program begins on Wednesday (May 14th).
Second, even if no one else signs up, there are enough participants to create a vibrant, dynamic group of people interested in learning how to use their personal energy systems to accelerate their ability to create an awesome life!
And here’s why I’ve capped the enrollment:
Because the recordings of this program are going to be the core content of a digital, self-paced program, having fewer people on the calls will enable me to provide focused, personalized Energy Coaching to the participants. We’ll be able to zero in on their specific questions and issues. So the recordings for the self-paced version will be chock full of highly specific and practical information that might not come out with a larger group.
So that’s all good. Now here’s the important point before I get to Mark’s email:
When I first opened registration for the course, and saw that enrollment was going very slowly I wasn’t quite as relaxed about it as I am now! And before I had those encouraging, positive conversations, I actually managed to attract four conversations in a three-day stretch that clued me into some inner work that I need to do.
You see, each of these four people responded in almost the exact same way when I voiced my concerns about the enrollment in the program. They all said:
“Well, with this recession and gas prices being so high and food costs going up, people are getting very cautious with their spending.”
I’m still amazed that every one of them used almost the exact same phrasing. It was as if they were reading from a script! (In a way, they were. Read Mark’s email below and you’ll see what I mean).
Now the fact that I had four people voice these fears to me tells me that I’ve got some internal work to do. Apparently, even though I don’t watch the news and only rarely read the paper, on some level, I’ve bought into this whole recession thing.
And obviously, many others have as well. And that brings me to Mark’s email. If you’ve been hearing lots of people around you complaining about the “recession” or gas prices or food prices, or if you’ve been catching yourself complaining about the “recession,” you’ll definitely want to read this.
[Note: The highlights are mine. Also Mark’s offer at the end is only available for another 24 hours (as of this posting) but the information in the email is definitely worth reading anyway!)
After you read Mark’s note, leave a comment below and share your thoughts. I’d love to hear how you’ve been responding to this “recession!”
Hey Ed
I hope you’re having a beautiful day!
I sure am - maybe better than I’ve had in a *long* time …
I’ll tell you why in a second. (hehe
![]()
First, there’s something I need to get off my chest before my
head pops off my shoulders.OK …
I’m really sick of hearing one particular word every time I
turn on the TV.Bear with me.
No, it’s not “election” or “Iraq.”
This word gets me more worked up than either of those two.
The word I’m talking about is “recession.”
First, don’t you get a sense that most of these “pundits” on TV
don’t really have any clue what they’re talking about?I mean, not even economists agree on the definition of a
recession, or if it’s even a significant event at all.Yet, that doesn’t stop the prime time scare-mongers from trying
to strike *fear* into the hearts of me & my family, though,
does it?I mean, let me digest my meal in peace for Pete’s sake!
Can’t they think of another way to pump up their ratings without
toying with the hopes & dreams of the average Joe?Ah, anyway … !
I’ll get off my soapbox.
What’s important is this.
When you strip away all of the hype from what is supposed to be
“fact-based news,” there are some things happening that should
cause us all to be a alert.“Alert.”
Not, “so scared out of our wits that we can’t think straight.”
Warren Buffett, the greatest investor who ever lived, recently
revealed at the latest Berkshire shareholders meeting that,
“the worst of the crisis in Wall Street is over.”Contrast that with the high-drama about a pending “financial
melt-down” the pundits are yammering on about.Who to listen to? The greatest investor who ever lived or some
TV blow-hards?Not a hard decision!
Yet, a clever investor is never complacent.
So, that’s why I’m going to spray myself with a whiff or two of
“Recession Repellent.”Don’t laugh.
This may sound like something silly, but it’s not. Far from it!
Warren Buffett has done it.
Bill Gates has done it.
So has Richard Branson, Donald Trump, Oprah Winfrey and just
about every other billionaire you can name.So, what is it?
First, you need a little “background” before you can really
understand it.Sorry if that sounds like “talking down” - it’s not meant to be
at all.Most people tend to dismiss this at first, but you won’t be so
fool-hardy when you are armed with the following facts.Ready?
OK, let’s play a little game.
Can you name a group of people who, year in and year out,
weather the toughest financial storms?Even if they lose everything these guys can get it *all* back
without breaking a sweat.They’re not doctors.
They’re not lawyers.
Nope, they’re most definitely not stock-brokers.
Who are they?
Now, promise me you’ll keep reading after I tell you because
you may think this doesn’t apply to you, but it does.It most certainly does.
Promise?
OK …
They are “best-selling authors.”
Now, remember your promise!
You’re about to understand why this fact can not only cause an
immediate cash windfall for you now, but also “set up” you and
your family for bedrock stability, year after year, no matter
what happens.In the next 90 seconds, you’re about to get an education
that has taken others decades to learn. And sadly, some never
get this education at all.Consider these facts:
FACT: A best-selling author can, because of his or her
celebrity status, get in front of large audiences almost
anywhere in the world, sometimes within hours of picking up
a phone.One of the most challenging things for any business is to get
“traffic.”Best-selling authors can get instant traffic, any time day or
night, like flipping a switch.It’s a fact.
FACT: Best-selling authors have “instant trust and credibility”
with their audiences.Another barrier that holds you hostage from the riches you know
you deserve is “trust.”You may have a product with more selling power than “instant
hair,” but if no one knows you or trusts you, it just doesn’t
matter.If, however, your message comes from “Best-selling author of …”
vast audiences will stop in their tracks to listen.FACT: Products from best-selling authors are “pre-sold” so you
can sell without selling.Let’s face it, no one likes an annoying pushy salesman, and
unfortunately, that’s what most people think the business
world requires.That just couldn’t be further from the truth.
What happens most often in today’s world is “selling without
selling.” Pre-selling is the name of the game, but most people
just don’t understand how it’s done.Products from best-selling authors have pre-selling built in
to them, often without the best-selling author understanding
how their products “just seem to keep selling.”I could probably carry on like this for a few hours and barely
scratch the surface.People often ask, “If Donald Trump has so much money why does
he keep writing books?”And now you know why.
Not only does he get a tidy flood of cash from the sale of his
books (and the additional products he sells to his readers), but
he enjoys limitless “ripple effects” that churn more and more
profit out of every nook and cranny.Pretty cool, huh?
Well, it gets better?
What if I told you that *you* could be a best-selling author?
And what if I told you that …
- you don’t have to have any business experience
(what I’m about to show you has worked for many who just blindly
followed the plan without even understanding it)
- you don’t have to have a “list”
- you don’t even have to write a book!
(you’ll laugh - many of the world’s best-selling authors have
never had to put pen to paper even a single time)And what if you could do all of this with minimal cash outlay?One young man from Singapore, with barely a penny to his name,
followed a similar plan and made 100K (US currency) within weeks.(you’ll hear his story and others)
Pretty cool, huh?
Now you’ll understand why I’m on such a “natural high” these
days!Well, it gets even just a little bit better.
This system comes with a high price tag (if you had such a
system that actually *worked* wouldn’t you expect that?), but
if you act quickly, you can get it on a drastically reduced
price with a payment plan that makes it affordable for even
someone on a “minimum wage” budget.Here’s the link:
http://www.simpleology.com/p/bestseller/edwardmills/
Do yourself a favor and at least test this out.
You’ll know instantly after reading that page (it’s actually
fun to read and you’ll learn a ton more) that it’s all on the
“up and up.”The man who put this together is a well-known 4 time #1
best-selling author who is endorsed by people from legendary
business luminaries to University professors to “work at home
moms” who have followed his advice and turned their lives
around.It’s backed up by an iron-clad guarantee and they have “assumed
the risk” for you, so you’d be crazy to miss out.OK, I’ve got to get back to work following this plan myself
![]()
My wish is that both of us, you and me, are best-selling authors
by this time next year.You game?
It can probably happen a lot sooner (it took one of his students
just 45 days!), but let’s be realistic.
Coincidence Or A Burning Ring Of Fire?
Now I’m not a big believer in “coincidence.” I find that when I remain open to the signs and signals from the Universe my life tends to flow much more smoothly.
That said, there are certainly times when I’m better at picking up on those signs even when the “coincidences” are a bit subtle and require some stretching to turn them into signs.
And there are other times when I’m a bit slow on the uptake and I either miss the sign altogether or the Universe is forced to send me one of those unmistakable, “bang-bang Maxwell’s Silver Hammer on the head” type of signals that does not need a whole of stretching!
I think you know the kind I’m talking about!
Well last weekend I got one of those.
It began on Saturday morning at the monthly meeting of the Drop In Law of Attraction group. We were exploring the connection between the Comfort Zone and the Law of Attraction. A great topic by the way!
During our discussion, after I had led the group through a visualization where they got to explore the edges of their comfort zone, one of the participants shared that the edge of her comfort zone was a circle of fire surrounding her. I immediately began singing the Johnny Cash song, “Ring of Fire.” I’m not sure where it came from. I’m not a big Johnny Cash fan and have only heard that song a handful of times. But out it came.
So there’s #1!
Later that night at a housewarming party for a friend who had just returned to Sonoma County, I was playing my guitar and singing along with a few of the party guests. Although my song list is significantly shorter than before my daughter was born, I was doing my best at taking requests. Some of them I could muddle through, most of them I either didn’t know or had forgotten.
And then, out of the blue, someone asked if I could play… you guessed it, “Ring of Fire.”
Now in all my years of leading sing-alongs at parties I have NEVER had anyone request Ring of Fire! What’s up with that?
Someone there knew the basic chord progression and another person knew the lyrics, so we were able to put together a passable version (although Johnny was probably rolling over).
There’s #2.
The next day at our local Farmer’s Market, my daughter and I ran into one of her pre-school friends and her dad, Mike Emerson. Ella and Sequoia started playing a bit while Mike and I chatted.
I knew that Mike was a keyboard player and since I’ve been interested in taking some piano lessons, I checked in to see if he knew of any good teachers in the area. Turns out he teaches as well as performs. Cool.
So as we talked about schedules he said that he wouldn’t be available until late in the month because he’s doing a quick European tour with… are you ready for this? Carlene Carter.
Now if you’re not a Country Music fan and don’t know who Carlene Carter is – I didn’t – she’s the daughter of June Carter – who happens to have written Ring of Fire - and Stepdaughter of Johnny Cash – who as you now know made it famous! And Ring of Fire is one of the songs they play in their shows.
So there’s the magic #3 and Maxwell’s bang on my head!
Yes I got it!
The sign that is. Still working out the details of the meaning. Sometimes with these “coincidences” the meaning is obvious and sometimes not so much. With this one I’ve got some ideas, but I haven’t come to any conclusive opinion.
I do know that I’ve been having fun imitating Johnny’s deep, gravelly voice as I belt out “I fell into a burning ring of fire…”
What do you think? What message is the Universe sending me? I’d love to hear your take. And in case you haven’t heard Ring of Fire, here are the lyrics:
Love is a burning thing
and it makes a fiery ring
bound by wild desire
I fell into a ring of fire…I fell into a burning ring of fire
I went down, down, down
and the flames went higher.
And it burns, burns, burns
the ring of fire the ring of fire.The taste of love is sweet
when hearts like our’s meet.
I fell for you like a child
oh, but the fire went wild..I fell in to a burning ring of fire…..[etc]

SleepTracker Pro Watch Review and Recommendation
![]()
Have you ever noticed that some mornings, when the alarm goes off, you’re wide awake and ready to jump out of bed and start your day, and other mornings… well, you just aren’t?
Well you probably know that during the night you cycle through different sleep stages from light, almost awake sleep, through the dreaming state, down into deep, dreamless sleep and back up again. You move through this cycle several times each night.
On the mornings when you don’t have to set your alarm and can wake up whenever you want, you naturally arise when you’re in one of those light, almost awake stages of sleep.
However, on the mornings when you have to be up at a certain time, your alarm clock does not know where you are in the cycle and wakes you up at the time you have set, regardless of where you are in your sleep cycle.
If the alarm happens to go off when you’re in a light part of the cycle, great! But if it goes off when you’re in a deep, dreamless sleep state, you are NOT going to feel like getting up!
Enter the SleepTracker Pro Watch.
I’ve been using this cool little device for about 2-months now, and I can tell you that it definitely works!
The theory behind Sleeptracker is simple but effective: It tracks your movements during the night in order to find the best time to wake you in the morning. Here’s what their website says:
SLEEPTRACKER® continuously monitors signals from your body that indicate whether you are asleep or awake. Because you wear SLEEPTRACKER® on your wrist like a watch, its internal sensors can detect even the most subtle physical signals from your body. SLEEPTRACKER® finds your best waking moments, so that waking up has never been easier.
To use the SleepTracker, you set the alarm for the latest time you want to wake up. Then you set a Window during which the SleepTracker will watch for a moment when you are in a light phase of your sleep cycle.
For instance, if I need to be up by 6:00am, I’ll set the alarm for 6:00 and the Alarm Window for 30-minutes. Then, at some point between 5:30am and 6:00am when the Sleeptracker senses that I am close to being awake, the alarm will go off.
Yes, that means that on some mornings, I’ll be up 30-minutes earlier than I “need” to. But because I’m waking up during one of the light sleep state, it’s much easier to get up.
Again, this is from the Sleeptracker website:
By monitoring your sleep cycles for optimal waking moments during the preset ALARM WINDOW, SLEEPTRACKER® finds those almost awake-moments and gently wakes you when you’re most alert. The result? You wake up refreshed instead of groggy. Waking up has never been easier.
Does it work?
In my experience, yes!
Now keep in mind that I’m a morning person, so in general it’s fairly easy for me to wake up. However, since becoming an early riser, there have definitely been mornings when the alarm going off at 5:00am caught me in one of the deep stages of sleep.
Since using the Sleep Tracker those mornings have been very rare. In fact, in the 2-months that I have been using SleepTracker there have only been 2 mornings when the alarm went off at the end of my Alarm Window and caught me in a deep sleep. And each of those mornings were after I had gone to bed much too late.
Usually, the alarm goes off when I am already becoming aware that it is time to get up. And, in fact, there have been quite a few mornings when I have been lying in bed thinking, “Hmm, if this was in my Alarm Window the SleepTracker would be going off right now,” just as the alarm went off!
Other Features:
Vibrating Alarm:
The SleepTracker includes a vibrate alarm which is great if you’re an early riser sharing a bed with a not-so-early riser! I also find that the vibrating alarm wakes me a bit more gently than the audible alarm.
Sleep Data Collection:
Another cool feature of the SleepTracker Pro is its ability to store the data from each of your night’s sleep. (Note that the standard version does not store and upload data). There is a USB cable and software included that allows you to upload your sleep data to a computer and track the quality of your sleep over time. This allows you to track what factors influence your sleep patterns both positively and negatively.
I used the data tracking feature for about 2-weeks and found it interesting. But for me it was not interesting enough to continue uploading the data each morning. Sleeptracker only stores one-night’s worth of data, so if you want to track your sleep patterns you need to upload the data every day.
Note to SleepTracker: If the watch stored more than one-night’s data I would be much more likely to use and benefit from this feature.
I do, however, check my data manually each morning. You can view your sleep data on the Sleeptracker with a view button pushes. And even without the graphs I have benefited from this information.
Nitpicky Stuff:
Other than a desire to have the watch store a week’s worth of sleep data, I have nothing negative to say about the functionality of the Sleeptracker.
The only area I have a little quibble with is the aesthetics of the watch. It’s just not a watch I would choose to wear on a daily basis. This would be less of a problem if they expanded the data storage capacity - then I would only need to bring it into the office once a week. But when I was tracking my sleep data I had to wear – or bring – the watch into my office every day.
And I will say that the Sleeptracker is definitely a conversation starter!
Interestingly, the SleepTracker Standard, which does not allow you to Download Sleep Data to PC looks more like a “normal.”
Bottom Line:
If you’re not a morning person and you have a hard time getting up in the morning, the SleepTracker can help get your mornings off to a better start. And that means that your entire day will be better!
After all, the way you feel when you first wake up often determines the tone of your entire day. The SleepTracker can wake you up gently and allow you to ease your way into the morning. No more jarring alarms and multiple snooze button cycles!
If you’re already a morning person and want your mornings to be even more graceful, the SleepTracker can help you too.
I wear SleepTracker every night, with the alarm set for 5:30am and the Alarm Window set for 30-minutes. Even on Sundays when I let myself sleep in I still let the SleepTracker wake me up and then meditate or go back to sleep if I feel like it.
Product Details:
Price: Sleeptracker Pro - $179; SleepTracker Standard - $149
Warranty: 1-year
Guarantee: 30-day unconditional money back guarantee.
Where to Buy:
You can purchase the SleepTracker Pro or Standard directly from the manufacturer.
Right now they’re offering free shipping (not sure if that will last). You can also have the Sleeptracker giftwrapped for an extra $4.99. And this would definitely be a great gift for anyone you know who could use a little help getting up on the RIGHT side of the bed!
Teleseminar Series: Energy Awareness Skills For Deliberate Creators
If you’re a SERIOUS Deliberate Creator you’ll want to check out my new teleseminar series:
Energy Awareness Skills for Deliberate Creators.
It’s a 6-week course that will teach you how to work directly with your personal energy to increase your intuition and significantly ramp up your ability to attract your desires!
As a Deliberate Creator, you know that Positive Thinking is great, Positive Emotions are even a bit better and Inspired Action is best! But you also understand that beneath all of it is Energy!
Why not work at the Energetic Source?
It’s not as difficult as you might think. And it’s certainly not impossible. In fact there have been systems of energy perception and manipulation for thousands of years.
I’ll be honest with you: I didn’t believe human energy systems when I was first exposed to them. I was definitely skeptical of the thought that I could (or someone else) “read” my energy systems and use that information to gather information and improve my life.
But I’ve experienced far too many “weird coincidences” to write off energy work to “chance.”
This 6-week course will give you the knowledge and tools to begin exploring your own energy systems so that you can align your energy with your desires.
Here’s some of what we’ll cover:
An Intuitive Meditation Technique that will improve your intuition and help you connect with your internal guidance system
The ability to consciously ground your energy and your intentions into the physical world - A critical component in your success as a Deliberate Creator!
Practical tools to strengthen your Intuition and Energy Awareness.
An intuitive technique for making difficult decisions.
An understanding of the Basic Human Energy Systems including:
- The Grounding System
- The Auric System
- The Chakra System
Here’s the bottom line… If you’re a SERIOUS Deliberate Creator the material in this teleseminar series will take your Law of Attraction work to the next level - the energetic level!
You can read more about the course and register here.
And fyi, there are two Fast Action bonuses worth over $325 available to the first few people to register.
Do You Take Your Expertise For Granted?
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
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.

Earth Day, A New Earth, And Energetics
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.
It 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?

Ask The Coach Blog Is Live
Well after weeks, or has it been months -
- of big changes over at Wendy Piersall’s emomsathome… er… Sparkplugging CEO, blog network, the Ask the Coach blog is live!
Now if you don’t know what Sparkplugging means, here’s the definition:
Giving life or energy to an endeavor.
Love that!
If you have not checked out the new and - I think - improved version of Wendy’s network, I highly recommend that you take a few minutes [hours!] to see all of the great stuff going on over there.
I’m thrilled to be part of the Sparkplugging community and especially excited to be a part of the Ask the Coach team with two other amazing business coaches, Marla Tabaka of LifeMap Business and Life Coaching and Starla Sireno of Fearlessness Inc.
The three of us will be answering your business (and life) coaching questions and hopefully Sparkplugging - giving some life and energy to - your endeavors. But more important we’ll hopefully be showing you how to generate that life and energy yourself!
The first answer I tackled was from a handyman having a hard time charging for all of his hours. Check out How do I bill for all of my hours, and while you’re there, leave a comment.
And if you’d like to get your question answered, use the Ask A Question form at the bottom of the official Sparkplugging Edward Mills About Page!
Listen To The Energetics Of Attraction Teleclass Recording
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.
Take a listen to this recording and then fill out the form below to register for the call on April 23rd.
You can listen to the recording of the entire call here, just click on the play button, or download an MP3 version by clicking on the download link below the audio player.
And if you haven’t downloaded the free report - The Energetics of Attraction: Understanding and Applying the Harmonics of Human Awareness to Compose the Life You Desire - it provides some excellent background for the teleclass.
