How Intentional Prosperity™ Came to Be…

Have you heard the story of how Intentional Prosperity came to be?

Bob is an amazing composer who’s able to sit down with an instrument and play without knowing what the first note or the last note will be. This form of composition is known as “stream of consciousness” or as we call it “Quantum Consciousness Composition”.

In the summer of 2006, he sat down and in less than 2 hours created an album of solo piano music that was so incredible that it made it onto the Grammy ballot in 4 categories.

This momentous event, following so many others since we had met, made us stop and question — “What’s going on?” — We knew there had to be a repeatable process since we were repeatedly achieving our dreams and beyond.

We stopped everything and examined how we had gotten to where we were and figured out how to share that process with you — the result was “The Intentional Prosperity™ System”. An operating manual for life that clearly explains how you got to where you are and shows you how to get to where you want to be.

Today we made our way back to the music — with the release of our first music video. You can watch it and read the story behind it at www.RomanceTrap.com.

Whether you’re looking for True Love, a way to Succeed in Life or Music born in the instance of creation, we can help. Visit our parent company website at: www.GatheringWave.com to access any of our sites.

Have a wonderful week and don’t forget to watch the video, “Always I’m Dreaming”!

Faster Than The Speed Of Light

The real you is already faster than the speed of light…

It’s my understanding that according to Einstein, the closer you approach the speed of light more more energy is required to increase that speed — because the mass of the object becomes greater. Which means the faster an object goes the heavier it gets — so it needs more energy to go faster.

Are you with me?

So it’s been “common knowledge” amongst rocket scientists that to get close to the speed of light you would have to harness the power of the sun! Because of all the energy you’d need to go the speed of light.

Now comes news that nano particle research has discovered that cigar shaped or saucer shaped nano particles can reflect light at 2.5 times the speed of light!

I’m not making this up — check it out here: Faster Than Light

Here’s the thing:

As you approach the smaller and smaller “worlds” of nano particles and levels even smaller — you’re getting closer to the “state” of human consciousness.

Since human consciousness operates beyond time, space and matter — outside of the physical universe — it is instantaneous — speed of light does not apply because there is no limitation of speed.

The problem with human consciousness is that it must be slowed down in order to affect what we perceive as our physical reality.

Think of it this way:

The average car, in order to go 65 mph, your engine is turning at about 2,200 rpm. But your tires don’t spin that fast! They are “geared” down. If you had a 16″ tire which covers around 50″ for one spin — spinning 2,200 times per second means — according to my calculations — you’d be going almost two miles per second! (1.736 miles to be exact!)

That translates to about 104 miles per minute or 6,249 miles per hour!

The point I’m making is in the physical universe, consciousness has to slow down from it’s instantaneous vibratory level — well it doesn’t vibrate it just is — in order to affect the physical world — just like a car engine has to be geared down in order to make useful power to spin your tires.

That’s why when you imagine something — which is instantaneous — it doesn’t immediately manifest in your life — there are steps you have to go through which “slow down” and transform what you imagine into the much slower vibration of the physical universe we’re “tuned” into with our bodies and five senses.

As nano technology continues to explore smaller and smaller particles it will pierce the veil of the next dimension — that’s just a matter of time.

Just remember: Consciousness exists beyond the dimensions of “vibration” which are necessary for the physical universe to exist.

Your true self is pure consciousness…

Operating a “bio-suit” (a physical body) in order to have experience in the physical universe — It’s all laid out in “The Intentional Prosperity™System”.

I didn’t hold anything back.

Three Strikes And You’re Out

Three Strikes And You’re Out…

There’s an old story that goes something like this:

A young Brave came to the Council of Elders to seek advice on a problem.
The Elders discussed the problem amongst themselves and then summoned the Brave.

He was given the combined wisdom of the Elders in the form of a solution to his problem.

The Brave returned a second time and again asked the Council of Elders for help with the same problem. This time there was no discussion amongst the Elders. The Brave was given the combined wisdom of the Elders in the form of a solution to his problem — which was identical to what he was given the first time.

The Brave returned a third time and asked the Council of Elders for help with his problem.

“Why do you bother us with the same question we have answered two times? Nothing has changed and our answer to your problem is still the same.

Now you insult us by asking a third time.

You insult us because you disrespect our wisdom. You insult us because you are deaf to our words. You waste our time because you think your problem is special or different — yet you make no effort to use our solution.

Instead you choose to protect your problem because it gives you medicine — a reason to come before the Elders. You fear solving the problem because without it you no longer have meaning to your life. What will you talk about once the problem is solved?

Answer that question and the problem will go away.”

The Brave returned a fourth time — his status as Brave was immediately reduced to that of a boy.

“In the world of people — said one of the Elders — a Brave seeks the council of his Elders when he has faced the end of his understanding.

To be kicked by his pony is the destiny of a boy.”

Age Does Matter

My recent posting of a letter I had written eleven years ago got me thinking:
There’s a reason why my Life Coaching and Mentoring is not focused on “young people”.


This may seem strange because in the music business, my primary music recording and production customers tended to be twenty-somethings — for demo and album projects.

Life Coaching and Mentoring is very different — age does matter.

I’m talking about actual life experience — and the ability to trust that experience to clarify the difference between what you believe — and what your friends or parents believe.

My personal experience with 20-somethings has been that they tend to be fearful of trusting their true feelings about things.

You can have a very lucid conversation — come to a logical conclusion — and the person with the least life experience — becomes fearful of accepting their own conclusions. They are afraid of their own truth.

They will still give more consideration to what their friends will think — rather than what is right for their life.

Thankfully this immature approach to living life tends to dissipate as you get older.

Maybe you finally realize that your friends aren’t going to “jump into the grave for you” because you gave them so much power over how you lived your life.

So, with a few exceptions of course — obviously there are young people who are mature and trust themselves — I’ve found the most successful people — with Life Coaching and Mentoring — have achieved a certain self-trust which comes with personal life experience.

It’s not surprising that the further someone gets — in time and experience — from the influences of their parents and peers — the more successful they become with how they live their lives.

Trying to explain this truth to someone who already knows everything and has a circle of friends who will back that claim — may not be the best use of my time and energy — I’d rather let time and their own life experience make — and win — the “maturity” argument for me.

To My Protegee

I ran across a letter I had written to someone I had been Life Coaching — and Mentoring her musical career — 11 years ago — when she was 23 years old.

What I was telling her about moving ahead with her life and dreams was timeless — as if I had written it for this blog!

I didn’t use her name to protect her privacy.

Dear —

Someday in the distant future you may remember me as the man who saw the “real you” and drew “you” out. Someone who gave you a different way of looking at life. Made you feel things you never felt before — and made you confront your apprehensions.

I hope that you will think of me as the person who forged your love of music into the understanding and determination you needed — to break-away from the chains of doubt and fear — a guide who gave you a the foundation that let you live life on your own terms.

Showed you how to be a “life artist”.

You are an incredible protegee. Your ability to grasp and internalize is phenomenal. Your honesty has made this possible.

There is one decision you still must face.

Are you ready to live and create your future from the “real you”?

Are you willing to change your perception of reality to encompass who you really are becoming — or will you continue to have a secret dream life?

Your two greatest barriers continue to be:

(1) Living your life and being controlled by your concern for “what other people think”.

(2) You still don’t trust yourself to “let yourself go” and continue to opt for the comfort zone of “control” — by doing what is safe and predictable.

These are issues that no amount of philosophical exploration can change. They are strictly “free-will” issues. If you continue to rationalize to go with the limitation of the “known” rather than the “unknown” — you’re going to hold yourself back.

It all really comes down to trust. Trust yourself! Trust your heart!

Stop trying to create the perfect scenario — before you take action.

You will waste precious time and perfection will never be attained. Forge ahead. Take action from the person you are now — let the world see who you really are.

Warmest Regards,
-Bob Baran
