Are You Working Hard to Stay Broke?

Having been to about 70 countries, people often tell me how easy it must be to become wealthy in the United States. And while it’s not necessarily easy to become wealthy, I do know you have to work very hard to stay broke. And not only here in the United States. You have to work very hard to stay broke almost anywhere in the world. Really.

The Question That Sets You Free

I only met Harry Browne once, and it was probably almost 20 years ago.  But he taught me a lesson I apply virtually every day of my life; a lesson that is one of the most powerful tools for manifesting success that I know.  (Side note:  You know how people often say if you can just get one great idea from a book, seminar, etc., it’s worth it?  Trust me, there’s more truth in that than there are circles in a box of Cheerios.)  What was the gist of the lesson you may wonder…

Escaping Mediocrity

When is the last time you attempted something really great?  Something so bold, daring, and imaginative – that if you failing at it you would face a potentially strong degree of risk?

Don’t Give Up on Hope

If ever there was a time for hope, it is now.  You may be feeling overwhelmed right now, anxious or disconcerted.  Perfectly understandable.  There’s a lot going on right now, and media and your social feeds are probably in hyperdrive to report it all to you.  But they can’t extinguish hope.

Tithing, Karma, and Payback

One of the fascinating beliefs of religion is the notion of how the actions you take (or don’t) influence the response you receive from the world around you.  In the Bible there are unforgiving examples such as “an eye for an eye,” and beautiful ones such as the concept of tithing.  Buddhism, Hinduism, Jainism, Taoism, and Sikhism all speak of karma.

Pandemic + Politics = Death

In the case of a worldwide pandemic, lots of people die.  And unfortunately, lots of them die needlessly.  These unnecessary deaths are usually because of politics.

What Have We Learned from the Pandemic?

One of the wisest things economist Milton Friedman ever taught was that only a crisis — actual or perceived — produces real change.  It is times of crisis that cause our preconceived beliefs and confirmation biases to get shaken and stirred.  Things that weeks ago seemed politically impossible become politically inevitable.  Countries and cultures mirror individual people in the sense that we usually learn a lot more from our challenges than we do from our victories.

Calling All Prosperity Warriors…

The problem is real: we’re in a global pandemic. There is no denying this reality.  Things look dark, and you could be forgiven for feeling anxious, frightened, or even defeated.  But please don’t allow yourself to stay there.  We need you right now.  And there is cause for optimism, harmony, and hope...  Because there is something else that cannot be denied – and that is the awesome power of the human spirit.
