What do you feel when you stand on the shore of the ocean?

In the summer we like sneaking over to the beach on the hot days after a day at the office and in the winter we love the beach strolls with our dogs alone just listening to the waves.

What do you feel when on the shore?

I feel calmness.  I also feel like our challenges are nothing when comparing to the entire world and the ocean reminds me just how tiny we are in the universe.  It also makes me feel quite appreciative...for everything!

Kim and I are fortunate to be so near the ocean!

What is the greatest crime one person can commit against another?

Think about this for a minute and think about what your answer would be. I have several but I was thinking about this on a plane when I read it in a magazine.

My answer: Stealing someone's DREAM.

You know, my grandfather used to tell me that he wanted me to make sure I remember to get him hockey game tickets when I played for the Bruins. He was a big DREAM BUILDER. At the same time, my brother and I experienced a coach in High School that took years of positive programming away because he was the complete opposite and I was too inexperienced to know or grow through it.

In 1986 when we first got married I joined the Amway Corporation for about a year. I remember specifically that my parents didn't only support me ...they attended some meetings to support me. At the same time, I had a dentist that I shared the idea with that shot it and me down- real hard.

I strongly suggest that you not let anyone commit the crime of stealing your dream. Feed your mind with awesome books like Magic of Thinking Big or Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson so you aren't vulnerable to anyone stealing your dream!

What would a franchise cost you to produce income in multiple states or countries?

Simply Recommending

It's best when speaking about your business that you think of it as simply recommending. You simply listen to the people around you...listen to their challenges and problems and when someone shares a challenge or problem that either your product or business can help with -- just tell them your story and how you see it being a solution for them. If you go out this week and have a great meal at seafood restaunt and you recommend it to a friend and the friend says "I don't like seafood" or "that place cost too much", you just let it go as their opinion; you're not tied emotionally to it. It's the same with your network marketing business -- Just recommend it. If it is a fit, perfect. If not, let it go.

Your personal timing is the only thing you can control -- you don't know the dynamics of what's happening in other peoples' lives.


...oh and by the way, look at who thinks the network marketing profession is a great fit for many!

What Do You Say When You Talk to Yourself?

What do you say when you talk to yourself? That’s actually a great book by Shad Helmstedder if you haven’t read it yet.


Are affirmations hocus pocus to you? Have you studied how they work…or could work in your life?

One of my friends and business partners –John Alexandrov – also wrote a great book about this subject called Affirmations of Wealth: 101 Secrets of Daily Success – another suggested great read for you.

If you’re not already using affirmations, you will after reading those two books.


What if you were to place yours on an index card and read them morning and night as you take them out and put them in to your pocket?

 What would that do to your subconscious and conscious thoughts?  

Try it, but don’t try it for a week and tell me it doesn’t work. Try it for one full year and then write to me with the amazing result(S).

I have shared a few of my daily affirmations below.

Some of mine…
  • I am 100% responsible for my results. That gives me the power to create what I want. To change results I change my activities and inner game strength. I repeat and capitalize what works and fix what doesn’t. I learn quickly and grow from each experience. Obstacles serve as an indication that I am taking action, providing necessary feedback for adjustments along the way. Whatever I can conceive and believe I can achieve. If it’s possible for anyone it’s possible for me and much more! 
  • There is nothing I cannot accomplish. Anything is within my reach. Every obstacle I confront is an opportunity to grow and improve. My potential is only limited by my current habits, attitudes, beliefs & expectations. I expect great things daily…so I naturally attract great things daily. Others can live ordinary lives & produce ordinary results; I live an extraordinary life and people are amazed at what I can accomplish with ease. 
  • We design & attract our lifestyle daily. 
  • True friends surround me. I have boundless energy. I have great wisdom. I am a true leader. I am filled with God-given creativity and I am dedicated to helping others. The spirit of the Lord goes before me and makes my way easy, fun & successful. I am getting better & better every day in every way. I attract true leaders who help achieve my mission. I praise god from whom all blessings flow. 
  • Today is going to be an outstanding day because it’s my choice. 
To your success, Think HUGE!
