End Of My Grieving: Part 3

Did I mention the flight will take us to Orlando, Fla?

This is going to be fun… Back to the story.

I’ve started to experience people now calling me that I haven’t talked to in years – and I mention the “deal” I’m considering and they want in!

So I’ve spent the last couple of days fielding phone calls from all over the country (and Canada) – hearing from people I haven’t heard from in years and having a blast telling them about this amazing thing that’s been going on in my life.

It can’t be a coincidence

How does your phone go from a few calls a day to almost non-stop?  Maybe if you spend a fortune on advertising… I’ve only been making a series of decisions that began with my willingness to become open to any possibility.

I’m convinced the people who are calling me can sense the “quiet fire” of inspiration that’s now burning in me.  They sense it and want it for themselves!

Inspiration is a contagious primal force!

It’s the most basic form of “knowingness” – a place within ourselves where we know our life has meaning – the things we are doing from moment to moment have a purpose – and we have a destiny.

Maybe we don’t know how we’re going to get there – but that doesn’t keep us from taking the journey…

I’m on that journey and my wife Gwen is on that journey.

It’s fantastic to look into each other’s eyes and just giggle!  Cause we both know we’re experiencing a form of “magic” – the magic of the imagination being unleashed by the natural passion and joy that comes from knowing your in the right place at the right time.

And it wasn’t by accident or luck.

It is the natural progression of the process which began with my good intent.

If you want to know a bit more about what I’m experiencing and what this amazing thing that has appeared in my life is all about – drop me an email or call me... 406-475-3458

Better yet, go to www.intentionalprosperity.com and follow the link under the new logo your going to find – the one that says “Intentional Prosperity Network”…

Join us and together will  make all of our dreams come true.

End Of My Grieving: Part 2

This may turn out to be more than a two part blog.  So many things are happening so quickly now – just in the 24 hours or so since I wrote yesterday’s blog post – that I need to tell you about what’s going on…

First:  There’s a certain kind of “timing” that takes place in life.  In the Intentional Prosperity™ System I refer to it as “quantum timing”.  Put simply: Being in the right place at the right time.

No such thing as luck

Too many people still cling to the fantasy that there is such a thing as luck.  I believe that being in the right place at the right time is actually the result of a process that you consciously or unconsciously put into motion.  Those who do it unconsciously are the one’s who call it luck.

Luck tends to be a hit or miss situation because – all too often you’re not aware that you’re in the right place at the right time – so when you actually “harvest the fruit” of that situation you find yourself  thinking “I was lucky”.

So what I’m going to share with you now is in no way luck – it is the direct result of practicing what I preach.  In other words a conscious intent on my part to do good and bring good into my life.

As you recall from yesterday’s post I wanted to create new pathways and relationships in my day to day world – I was ready for a new adventure.  Ready to meet new people and have my energy amplified as I amplify the energy of others…

Inspiration is the greatest gift we can give to each other…

So here’s what happened today:

I receive a conference call from my old friend Garry Schoen and another individual he wanted me to talk to about a business opportunity.  I was very clear with Garry about my motivation – I wanted to interact with people.  I love watching people come alive with the awakened belief that they can make their dreams come true.

At this point in my life I’m not motivated by “making money”

I’m motivated by what inspires me…  Money always follows passion – it’s one of the foundation principles of Intentional Prosperity™ and the way I’ve always lived my life – once I realized passion was the true key to prosperity.

As I’m stating my beliefs  in the phone conversation I hear the words:  ”Can I fly you and Gwen out to meet with me and some of the people on the team”  Fly me out to meet like minded individuals…

My first reaction was complete surprise at the generosity of the invitation – Flying now days isn’t cheap – and even if I did get involved in the business opportunity – they wouldn’t recoup their investment right away.  There was not  a big pay-off because of a big lump sum of money I would potentially be spending on some kind of “deal”.

She said , “We want you and Gwen to be a part of our team”…

Then it dawned on me – the team she was representing fully understands the principle of inspiration and amplifying energy.

Gwen and I are booked on that flight!

So much to tell you and so little space – on this blog that is – so I’m going to share with you the next amazing thing that happened right after that phone call in the next installment….

The End Of My Grieving…

My Grieving Process is over…

I just completed a grieving process that began in September last year.

I didn’t realize that I was experiencing it – but reviewing my blog postings and the direction I was moving in with my attitudes and opinions in my day-to-day life –  tells a very different story.

I was dealing with the death of a “system”.  A way of doing business -  I had  taken for granted  would always be around.

I’m talking about the so-called “free enterprise system”.

The shock – denial – confusion – anger -  and finally acceptance of change.

Things will never again be as they were six months ago – And I believe it’s a good thing!

I think a lot of people have been going through a similar process – grieving on a deep subconscious level.  Because intuitively  you know something has changed – forever.

You see, the fact that some people could create enormous wealth was – for many of us –  the outer boundary of what was possible. Maybe you didn’t strive to be a billionaire or a millionaire – but you could see yourself buying a new car or owning a home…

But the rapid collapse of the “high end” of our economic system has created  a profound chilling effect on the rest of us.

On a subconscious level,  hearing about society’s financially successful people having their dreams and fortunes collapse is affecting our own belief that our dreams are possible.  If it’s collapsing for them it can collapse for us – goes the “logic”.

In the beginning of February I had a life transforming epiphany…

Regardless of the changes taking place in the outer economy – the foundational principle of the Intentional Prosperity™ System remains intact and even more relevant than before.

Prosperity comes to you as the direct result of the quality of your relationships.

What better time to begin practicing the powerful technique of creating new pathways for prosperity to come to me – by creating new relationships.  More important – opening myself up to allowing prosperity to come  in ways I hadn’t even considered.

Too often – and I’m guilty of this myself – we assume that our financial prosperity is only going to manifest itself through a very narrow mechanism.

A job, investments, a business or career – so we continue – in spite of the changing reality around us – to expect those mechanisms to continue to provide us with the prosperity we want out of life.

What happens when the economy shifts and the “marketplace” goes through a paradigm shift – as has been taking place over the last few months?

We all know  on a deep level something has changed – yet our “status quo protection mechanism” fights the reality that is taking place around us.

We deny the change and limit our options.

My personal epiphany:

I had unknowingly limited the pathways of prosperity in my own day-to-day reality.  I had focused soley upon those mechanisms I had been devoting most of my time to – and had literally shut off – with a sub-conscious barrier – even considering other alternatives.

I consciously changed this limitation in the beginning of February.

I decided to “open myself” to anything – no preconceived notions.  Of course I was going to use discernment – but I was going to consciously not predetermine what or how prosperity was going to come to me.  I did however place a simple criteria on my “change of attitude” within myself:

It had to be fun – unleash my natural passion – and be something that was going to be helpful to someone achieving their dreams…  In other words I was going to be “serving” the needs of others.

Within the first week, as a result of doing nothing more than making a list of people – and a few phone calls –  I had been out of contact with for many months and in some cases I’m sorry to say – years – amazing things began to happen.

I was commissioned to produce an album project for a dear friend of mine.  It turns out he thought I was so pre-occupied with my “business endeavors” he avoided asking me if I would be interested.  Interested?  In participating in a music project – the very passion that has sustained me throughout my life?  WOW!  I was flabbergasted at the realization that I had unknowingly created a barrier to doing those things that were a pure joy for me…

And other amazing things began to happen – someone who’s name was on my list – who I hadn’t talked to since 2002 – called me the next day! Before I had a chance to call her – asking if I would consider doing some consulting for her organization!

I saw her name and she calls me the next day.

It didn’t stop there:

I’ll reveal the most amazing thing in tomorrow’s posting.
