Rich, Famous and Live Forever

I recently heard a speaker say, “I can make you rich, famous and live forever!” I thought, “That’s a pretty bold statement.” I had heard that we all want to be rich, live forever and “get laid”. I hadn’t heard the famous part before.

It got me to thinking. It’s true… We all want to be recognized. You want recognition, don’t you? Think back, when you were a baby you cried, not just because your diapers needed to be changed and you were hungry, you needed and wanted attention!

Then you did your first finger painting and your mom put it up on the front of the fridge where everyone could see it. She gave you recognition, you were famous in her eyes.

And it goes on… As adults we have a number of ways of attracting attention to ourselves. Have you noticed the guy who drives the bright red sports car? Of course you have! As you read this, I bet you can think of ways you’ve attracted attention. Maybe doing an extraordinary job at work. Choosing to excel, to be a success, at something.

Hey, we all have a need to be recognized. If not to be famous, to be validated that we’re special. It’s almost as important as breathing for some. (Those who seek the limelight.) I’m not saying the only way to be special is to be famous. That’s a common misconception.

Look… you aren’t just special, you’re a miracle! The fact you were conceived, made it though birth and childhood as well as your unique trials, tribulations and various challenges is incredible. Do you know how fantastic the odds are of all that happening? I don’t know the exact percentage, but it is high enough to make every person on the planet, alive today, a miracle.

Even if you’re not rich, famous and going to live forever, you’re unique and wonderful.

So, your bank account isn’t what you’d like it to be and the media hasn’t been talking and writing about you… AND no one lives forever. Even so… You’re a special person and I’m glad you’re here.

Have you done anything lately that could change your current reality? Are you working on becoming rich, famous and extending your life as long as you can? Do you want some help, some insight? Check out the revolutionary Intentional Prosperity System…

Take care and recognize your own greatness today,

Miracle Pain Buster Discovered…

I discovered a miracle pain buster.

I’ve been on my back for the last three weeks with a torn meniscus (I hope I spelled that right) in my right knee. Talk about pain! I didn’t know that every part of my body was connected to my knee!

What happened was I had reached a point where I maxed out my Doctor’s prescribed dose of painkiller and nothing was happening. No relief, just a constant chronic pain that was so severe it was overriding everything.

I was completely out of ideas. Massaging didn’t work. Meditating didn’t work. Shifting my attention didn’t work. It was as if this pain had a voice of it’s own and it was yelling so loud that nothing could silence it.

Then I clearly heard a voice in my head.

The voice said “The Life on Mars”

That was an album I released in 2004. Quantum consciousness music–space music, that for a lack of a better description–I channeled. In other words, I didn’t know what the first note was going to be or the last until I finished each piece on the album.

“The Life on Mars–through your headphones!”

Was the complete message from the voice. This is the crazy part: Along with the message I had a vision of my headphones with the ear cups around my knee!

I didn’t care if it was crazy, I was at my wit’s end. I needed relief.

As God is my witness, within three seconds of putting those headphones on my knee with “The Life on Mars” playing through them–THE PAIN WENT AWAY!

THAT’S RIGHT, THE PAIN WENT AWAY!

I was astonished. Gwen was astonished. I knew “The Life on Mars” was not like any other kind of music. It was done in my unique original composing and performing style that garnered our record label the registered trademark: Escape Music® “for a unique and original style of music” from the U.S.P.T.O.–look it up.

Something was going on with the frequencies, tonalities, harmonic structure and pacing of the music that was directly affecting (and disrupting) the pain. It was the very cells of my body, not my ears, that were hearing or feeling these vibrations and reacting to them.

I went from excruciating unrelenting pain to zero in a matter of seconds.

I’m on to something here and I wanted to let you know about it. I’d be glad to share further details with you if you’re interested. I’ve had the chance to do a lot of experimenting with this phenomenon over the last couple of weeks using multiple headphones, etc.

This pain buster isn’t a fluke. It’s a duplicatable process with repeatable results.

More to come on the pain buster…

CUIL IS DOA

cuil the new search engine is dead on arrival…

Boasting 120 million indexed pages cuil falls apart with a simple search query–like my name: Bob Baran.

Eager for a deeper more substantial search of their claimed 67,000 plus references to my name, I was sadly disappointed with the results–and I’m not the only one disappointed with their search results.

All kinds of mp3 sites (including itunes) featuring my music. A lot of it with free downloads of my songs which is a part of my record label’s marketing–yeah it’s legal but it’s all so 2006!

The problem is nothing showed up on cuil, from the last two years, within the first few pages– relevent to what I’m involved with now: Intentional Prosperity. Not even bobbaran.com which is the number one search listing in all the other search engines.

Oh, I appreciate all the publicity it gives my music.

Thank goodness google, yahoo and msn and all the others get it right. I’m not interested the hundreds of online stores carrying my music around the world. I get a full report on that stuff every time my royalty check arrives in the mail.

My main focus is Intentional Prosperity and cuil failed miserably to pull up what was really important (to me) on the web.

By the way if you haven’t yet, take advantage of getting my music free online–but don’t waste your time with cuil (believe it or not it’s supposed to be pronounced “cool”–you’re only going to get part of the story.

cuil–another promise undelivered.

Time Goes By So Fast…

It goes by so fast…

My father used to say: “Life goes by so fast — In the blink of an eye”.  When I was a young man it was hard for me to comprehend the full meaning of his lament.

Now I’m astonished how quickly life moves.

It is unrelenting. It doesn’t wait for you take a vacation or watch a movie. Time keeps moving forward creating memories which you remember as your life.

I did discover something surprising about time:

Doing something consistently on a day-to-day basis creates an anchor point in time. If you want something to be different in the future, you have to create an anchor point which becomes the foundation upon which your future will be built upon.

Do nothing, and your future will be no different than your past.

Create an anchor point with your imagination, emotion, mind and body being focused on a day-to-day activity — on a consistent basis — and you create a parallel reality which will, in time, become part of your day-to-day life.

If you do nothing, nothing will change.

Fill your day with distraction and one day you will look in the mirror and wonder where all the time went. Then you’ll vaguely remember it was movies, tv and all of those hours of entertainment that gave you so many moments of escape.

Only you won’t remember what great lessons they taught you. What challenges they presented you and what significant accomplishment resulted form all that time you spent.

In fact, you probably won’t remember the names of the movies, the characters in the tv shows or anything of significance from all the hours you invested entertaining yourself. It will all be a blur.

A Little Bit Of Honesty Goes A Long Way

My sister works at a major Las Vegas hotel located on the strip. She’s also a union steward. She told me about a recent situation where, for a couple of employees, personal honesty took a back seat.

Las Vegas hotels and casinos have a zero tolerance policy for stealing money.

So my sister was suprised to learn that within a two day period, two employees admitted to stealing money. I’m talking about five dollars or less. One, an employee of almost ten years, the other was actually a former “employee of the month”.

No excuse, no tolerance: Instant dismissal

How can someone possibly justify, under any circumstance, taking company property …and in the case where there is a zero tolerance policy, why would they risk their job and future employment, over a few bucks? I mean a very few bucks?

My sister’s reaction was astonishment over how “stupid” these decisions were in light of the consequences. We both agreed It really comes down to a matter of personal integrity. That somewhere along the way both of these people justified stealing as being okay.

My take on it is that you would probably see a pattern of dishonesty in the lives of these two people. What else would explain risking everything over a few dollars? There must have been a long series of little compromises on personal honesty with these two. “Nickel and dime” stuff like watching a cashier give you back more change than he or she is supposed to and saying nothing about it.

There’s always a bigger price to pay.

My gut feeling is that those two employees were pocketing a few dollars here and there over a long period of time. It was so easily justified by their personal attitudes, opinions and beliefs that they didn’t think twice about it …until they got caught.

The more you begin to realize about the power of your intent, the less tolerance you’ll have for the compromise of “grey areas”. As you evolve spiritually, honesty actually becomes more black and white. You begin to see that the “grey areas” are just so much rationale that justifies dishonesty.

The good that comes from this is you begin to see how you’ve been “spinning” the truth to yourself, regarding certain things in your life. You begin to realize that you’ve been using your power to rationalize in a manner that has been working against your best long term interest.

In the case of the two employees they created bad habits which finally caught up to them.

In your case, being able to recognize a self administered excuse, which spins the truth …and taking steps to avoid or stop the “spin”, can be a powerful building block necessary to the foundation, you must build, in order to sustain a lifestyle of joy, fulfillment and prosperity.
