Manifestation and Limiting Beliefs What is stopping you from getting what you want? You often have the feeling that everybody else can just manifest their desires. But when you try, you do everything by the book. And nothing manifests. Why? Because manifestation and limiting beliefs go hand in hand. Chances are that like most people, you have limiting beliefs that block successful manifestation. A limiting belief is a thought or state of mind that you think is the absolute truth and … [Read more...]
Inspired Motivation at a Moment’s Notice
Generate Motivation At A Moment's Notice by Flipping the Switch Motivation On? What do we mean when we say "flipping the switch" anyway? The Urban Dictionary defines it as a sudden or drastic change of heart. Here, I'm talking about it as it relates to inspired motivation at a moment's notice. We are all unmotivated sometimes. We all procrastinate getting started on a new project or task we don't enjoy doing. But often in life, we don't have a choice - we must get certain things done. These … [Read more...]
The Infinity Pool
All summer long I had worked as a babysitter to save money, and whenever I was asked to help mow a lawn or some other chores that would bring in more money I said yes. I even scraped barnacles off wooden boats and that paid the most, even though my knuckles would be bloody and the pain lasted for days. In those days, the infinity pool wasn't even a gleam in anyone's eye. Very few people had their own swimming pool of any kind. Right before Labor Day I had gathered all of the coins and bills … [Read more...]
A Decade Older and Worlds Apart
A Decade Older and Worlds Apart When my mother and I moved from Los Angeles to Miami, I was not happy and overall nonplussed by this disruption to my life. The four-day trip on the train was fun and would have been more so if it had been round trip. I was almost twelve and finishing the 6th grade, and the thought of making new friends for a month and then heading off to junior high school without knowing anyone was not a concept I wanted to embrace. It was no secret that I was less than … [Read more...]

Limiting Beliefs Around Money
Limiting Beliefs May Be Holding You Back Are you continually disappointed about how much (or little) money you’re making in your business each month? If you’re stuck at a certain income level and can’t break through no matter how many Reels you record or social media posts you share or well-crafted sales emails you send, your limiting money beliefs around money could be the culprit. If you’re unfamiliar with the term, limiting beliefs are exactly what they sound like: beliefs that … [Read more...]
The Courthouse in Miami
It was a sweltering Wednesday afternoon in Miami on the 21st of July in 1971. Two years earlier on this day, astronaut Neil Armstrong became the first man to step onto the moon as part of the Apollo 11 mission. This was one of the most significant events in human history, marking a milestone in space exploration. At precisely the same time and just over a thousand miles north of the courthouse in Miami, President Richard M. Nixon and H. R. ("Bob") Haldeman were meeting in the President's … [Read more...]
Achieving the Greatness You Have Within
Achieving the Greatness You Have Within is a Worthy Goal As I am writing this it's Wednesday, and that means it is time for some "Wednesday Wisdom."

Achieving the greatness you have within is a goal worth pursuing, in my experience. Yes, this is possible for you, no matter where you are right now … [Read more...]
My Life as Ongoing Story Ideas
My Life, as Told in Story Ideas In the world of writing, more specifically scripts and screenplays, everyone knows that we don't share our story ideas. You cannot copyright your ideas or concepts, so by putting your story ideas online, you are vulnerable. Agents and editors don't steal stuff; it's other writers who are more likely to steal ideas. I do not advise posting fiction excerpts online just to see what happens. I've seen ideas get taken before, and I always advise writers on the safe … [Read more...]
Do for a Year What Others Won’t
Are You Willing to Do for a Year What Others Won't? Early on in my journey as an online entrepreneur, I chose a motto that would resonate not only with me, but with people all over the world. It's "Do for a Year What Others Won't; Live, Forever the Way Others Can't." It was in 2008, just as I had reached six-figures a year in my online business and had begun my first mentoring program. Elyse was my age and we'd both been students at UCLA during the late 1970s. She was married and they had a … [Read more...]
