Measurable Results

I am a fan of personal development. I think it's important...

I also see how many people use "personal development" as a way to avoid a measurable result. This is called, Creative Avoidance!

Your dream house is not going to materialize and your charities are not going to get funding just because your vibes are in tune with the universe (ditto about the car, yacht, bank account, etc... sorry)

But, identifiable, measurable results = progress and if you want more than you have, you have to be more than you are. Hence: personal development + action = measurable results.

I set out to complete the Landmark Education Curriculum for Living. I started in August 2008 and completed in July 2009. I think this is the most significant educational experience I have ever had.

I have recently taken a stand that the world financial crisis will end one day sooner because of me, than it would have without me.

To this end, I have created a Prosperity Mastermind with a group of extraordinary people. Initially, we met once-a-week with this agenda:
  • 30 minutes in a conversation about scarcity and abundance as they occurred in the previous week. This is to keep us present to the distinction and allow us to make a choice between them.
  • 30 minutes reviewing the personal development homework assignment.
  • 30 minutes of generic and practical education about the profession of network marketing and how it can result in an additional stream of income.
My intention was to combine the pursuit of the abundance mentality with personal development and education in a proven way to create cash flow. We rotate the leader each week and the incoming leader assigns the homework.

The initial requirements to participate were: completion of the Landmark Forum and acceptance of MLM as one potential way to earn supplemental income.

The experiment was a success! Now, another chapter is opening as a leader has donned the mantle of leadership.

Can you imagine the effect of these coffee-shop gatherings on the world financial crisis as they propagate across the country?

I can hardly wait!

Take a stand for a problem big enough to be worth having, become more than you are now, and take action!

I am a stand

I am a stand that the world financial crisis will end one day sooner because of me than it would have without my action.

I had an amazing breakfast meeting on Monday morning with two extraordinary men. What was planned for an hour became 4 1/2 hours and resulted in the creation of a Prosperity Mastermind Group.

We will meet every week and discuss our personal development homework, we will share experiences of abundance and scarcity since our last gathering, and we will discuss how network marketing is one practical access to prosperity.

I am inspired by this quote from the Tao Te Ching:
Those who admit that they don't know
Become wise.
Those who conceal their ignorance
Never learn.
Those who admit mistakes
Develop strength of character.
Those who pretend to be strong
Become weak.

Tao Te Ching, chapter 71

We are access per aspera ad astra (through adversity to the stars).

Who will you be? How big of a game will you play?

Join this conversation.
