The Myth of Fast Results

October 29, 2015 by Mark Shepard

44341045_mThe “Myth” of Fast Results

mmmmmmm

those sweet sacred moments between waking and sleeping… slowly rising to the surface of awareness from deep dreams…

And ahhhhhhhhh

the smell of coffee brewing…

and then the harsh sound of a phone ringing…

WTF?

[here’s the video version in case you like that better or keep reading below the video]

OH! It’s my friend Michael Guerin calling me on the phone…at 7:30 AM eastern time…
If anyone else called me that early I would NOT appreciate it. LOL

He was driving back from the airport and had some rare, uninterrupted time to talk.

In so many ways Mike is the foundation for my success here at HonestHypnosis.com.

Just in case you think the “Mark Shepard” you see here at Honest Hypnosis got here the easy way, you might want to consider that Mike and I started helping each other with our online businesses back in 2007…

It’s been almost 10 years of trying different ideas, different approaches, different cameras, different websites, different niches… in some peoples eyes we’ve FAILED more than anything.

But here’s the deal. We all want fast results. Some people seem to get them. But usually it’s because they “Primed the pump” and put in years and years of trial and error, failure, giving up too soon, whatever…

Here’s what I mean:

When I rolled up my sleeves and wrote my very first program, “The Clear The Fear Fast Home Study System” I did the best damn job I could do to translate what I was doing with my clients, many of whom paid $3,500 to work with me, into something that a person could do on their own and that would only cost $900.

I recorded it professionally with my sound engineer, Joe Mennonna, and got it professionally printed… it cost me thousands of dollars to produce… and it was an 8 CD set with a massive loose leaf binder of a manual.

I think I may have sold 3 of them.

3… of… them….

So THAT clearly wasn’t the way to paying my bills. :o(

It was a massive struggle. A huge learning curve. What some people would call at “FAILURE”.

And then the entire economy went into a meltdown in 2008. My private practice just crashed. The phone stopped ringing. My debts mounted…. and I ended up kind of… homeless… squatting in an empty apartment in a building being foreclosed on by the bank…

But even then I kept at it… I couldn’t afford internet so I parked my butt at starbucks and worked there…

Putting my entire NLP Certification Training up online… A MASSIVE project…

and one that that I think only 3 people bought… (but they were some of the BEST people I’ve ever MET. So I forced myself to smile and call it a “win”. )

Then I moved to the middle of nowhere in upstate New York and kept at it… then moved to Schenectady… and kept at it… trying different approaches, different ways to communicate what it is that I do… online…

My girlfriend at the time basically came right out and called me a “loser”… a “failure”… told me to “get a job”… and it hurt…

Because I just KNEW THAT IF I COULD GET WHAT I HAD, OUT into the world TO ENOUGH OF THE RIGHT KINDS OF PEOPLE, I COULD MAKE A POSITIVE DIFFERENCE… AND A GOOD LIVING.

But whatever I did just didn’t seem to be “good enough”… (Transformation Nation member Margaret asked me about a course for help with the “not good enough stuff” and trust me I’m working on a course about How to install “good enough” in your unconscious mind :o)

And then one day it all came crashing down on me…

I just couldn’t take it any more.

And I was ready to unplug all my different websites and just call it quits.

I called Michael Guerin and said, “Dude. I’m just gonna shut all this shit down.”

I think at the time I had:

ClearTheFearFast.com – my first program
CrushAnxiety.com – my anxiety prevention course
ModernJedi.com – my online NLP trainings
ReluctantSales.com – my persuasion power for shy professionals
ShyGuyHelp.com – my site for shy men
DrumSongStory.com – my storytelling site
BullyingPreventionNow.com – my bullying prevention site
MarkShepardSongs.com – my music

[most of these sites are now being folded beautifully into HH by Mike]

I had poured my heart out into each of them… but it was too many directions… I was overwhelmed and burned out…

I was working hard, but not really noticing that I was making progress…

And it hurt. I hurt as much as my anxiety clients hurt before I help them…

Hurt… just plain hurts… and we want it to stop… and sometimes we react like a wounded animal…

and that’s where I was. It all started because I wanted to share my songs with the world… and I couldn’t… and it became a legendary, epic adventure that I would have gladly avoided to stay home in the “Shire with the other hobbits” LOL…

But Michael Guerin stopped me.

“Don’t quit he said. I’ll help you.”

And he did. You see on HIS journey (which kind of mirrored my own), he was totally intimidated by the fact that he didn’t have a website and had paid a guy thousands of dollars for a website that never got built…

So with my encouragement, he started teaching himself how to build websites…

I was one of his first clients… He practiced on ME…

First he helped me set up a website to market my hypnosis practice to my new hometown of Albany NY.

Within 6 months my practice was up again and running and I was knocking all the other local hypnotists down off of their perches on google… That was pretty much all Mike’s web design and Search Engine Optimization knowledge put into practice.

Plus my willingness to make video after video even though they were pretty bad… I kept at it… learning. adjusting, learning some more…

the story goes on…and on…

but the point is… And yes there IS a point Mildred! LOL

It (whatever your “it” is) often takes longer than we think it will.

It often takes longer than we want.

But when you have someone helping you who has been there, done that, who has long hard won experience, they can settle you down and encourage you to have at it one more time and then another time and another until one day you too have the experience and the wisdom you’ve earned.

The greatest mistake I made in my 30 plus years of being an entrepreneur was trying to make it work all by myself.

Screw that stiff upper lip, solitary struggle shit. BLECCH!

I helped Mike to clear his agoraphobia and social anxiety, his fear of the phone etc. He had tried to clear that alone for years and I was able to help him with that, faster, easier, better. But it still took some time and effort on his part.

Once he discovered there were tools and techniques he could use to understand how he was creating his anxiety and then clear it, he applied the tools and got results.

And on the flip side, He’s been able to help ME in so many ways that I can’t even begin to tell you.

Without Mike you would probably not even know about me or be reading these words right now.

Because he experienced my work first hand, he knows how helpful and valuable it is, and when I wanted to quit he insisted that I keep going.

Ultimately that’s what I want to do for you.

I want to insist that you keep going…

You are worth it.

You are getting closer.

Stay the course.

I got an email from Transformation Nation Member in good standing,  E. yesterday that really confirmed this, he’s been trying valiantly to crush his anxiety and just didn’t see that he was making progress, he ended up speaking to someone who had managed to clear it who said, “I just went for a 5% to 10% level of relief and worked from there…”

BING! A light went off for E. He’d been thinking that anything other than 100% instant anxiety relief wasn’t relief.

Well, like me, with learning how to share my music and hypnosis work with people who ‘get’ it, I wanted instant, massive results, E. had to discover for himself that sometimes slow steady improvement is where it’s at.

But we also have to learn to stop beating ourselves up for our apparent lack of success…

It’s just a journey… success is taking the next damn step… and then the next…

So regardless of your level of anxiety or your dreams for a better life, a better future, today is where the rubber meets the road. The small things we CAN do today, matter. They DO make a difference.

You have me now.

I am here every single day rooting for you.

I totally believe in you.

If I could spare you the learning curve to make your progress, faster, easier, better I would. I can save you time by modeling for you how your mind works and the tools and techniques you can apply to take charge of your own change and master your own mind for that change.

Faster, easier, better… IS possible…

AND ultimately it comes down to YOU taking action.

Some action is more like a drowning swimmer flailing away…

We are talking INTELLIGENT sustainable action…

Facilitated by having a coach, having a mentor, having a team, a tribe, a community that supports you, loves you, believes in you…

Well, THAT my friend makes all the difference. You still have to do your work. You still have to take action.

But the thing that puts you over the top is the fact that you are not alone.

Innovators often live on the edges or the “fringes” of the larger culture.

Like Jonathan Livingston Seagull in the classic 1970’s bestseller by Richard Bach, we can only go so far by ourselves… and then others begin to be attracted to our different way of thinking because it offers them freedom.

Soon, even though he was rejected and ejected from the “flock”, other outcasts began finding Jonathan and asking him to teach them how to fly better…

Today you have me.

And… behind the scenes making everything work… is a guy by the name of Michael Guerin… He’s overcome his own anxiety and built the kind of life most people can only dream of… he works from home. He’s there to take his kids to the bus stop and to meet them at the end of the day. No time wasted in traffic or dealing with bureaucratic nonsense.

So when I ask you to email me and tell me your story, ask me your questions, I mean it.

This is a two way street. When I can be useful to you through my songs, or my words or a course or video it helps me to know you are out there practicing this stuff…

It keeps me fired up and motivated to put in the hours… and I put in a lot of hours at this and I LOVE doing it… I like knowing that it is actually making a difference in folks lives… but I will do it regardless.

Great music usually starts with the composer alone in his solitude… but it doesn’t really EXIST until it is shared WITH an audience. In a way the audience is the CO-CREATOR. It’s a shared experience that lifts both listener and performer up and transports them someplace neither could go to alone…

And I want to reward your attention, your desire to go deeper and to truly benefit from my years and years of experience CRUSHING anxiety in my own life, and helping others to do the same.

Sometimes you just need to know you are not alone. Sometimes you just need someone to hang with you while you put some new ideas into practice…

Ever watch a kid learn to walk? They just practice RELENTLESSLY. They may cry in frustration at times, but they get back up and give it another go…

Today. My new course, CRUSH anxiety NOW! is in it’s last day of “beta testing price”.

It’s currently $59 but going up at midnight to a modest $99 bucks.

It’s 31 days of me coaching you.

Working with you. Encouraging you. REMINDING you to use your tools.

I set it up so that it’s as if you came and did a private session with me every single day for a month.

NO ONE could afford that. I couldn’t afford the time to do that with ANY client. I don’t care how much they paid. And even if you had all the money in the world, NO ONE goes to work with ANY COACH every single day. It would just be too much.

Even Olympic athletes and coaches have days off.

HOWEVER, you CAN have that kind of persistent support every single day with this course. And at it’s current price it’s a little over a buck a day… plus at the end, if you don’t think it was worth it, you can get your money back…

Seriously? Yeah SERIOUSLY. We’ll take all the risk to give you a chance to check it out with a clear mind.

I will still be here for you with the Mind Mastery Daily every single day whether you buy the course or not, but if you want to go deeper, if you want to give yourself the benefit of having the same tools in your tool kit that Mike and I and all the amazing folks who have jumped in in the last few days, have in ours and that we still use every single day “as needed.”

The time to take action is now.

Eventually CRUSH anxiety NOW will probably be priced at about $300 which would be about $10 a day. Still cheap. I would rather make less money and help more people, but a lot of times if something is too cheap people don’t respect it or value it or it makes them suspicious that there is some “catch”.

And there is a “catch”.

YOU… are the catch.

Will investing in yourself motivate you to “get your money’s worth” and actually apply the information immediately in your own life?

Only YOU can answer that.

If you’re ready. Here’s the link.

CRUSH anxiety NOW! For only $59 bucks

If you’re not ready that’s ok too. No pressure, No rush. It’ll still be here when you’re ready it just may cost more.

But please at least take away this thought today:

It always takes longer than we want.

It is our desire for results that moves us forward.

So I beg you to be patient with your own journey, your own process and trust that even if it seems like there is little progress going on with you, under the surface, roots of transformation are growing and finding nourishment.

Peace.

– Mark

Why Anxiety Is Not A Disease

October 28, 2015 by Mark Shepard

24561941_mA lot of people have been hoodwinked by the big pharmaceutical companies into believing that anxiety is a disease…

Big Pharma wants it to be a “disease” so they can get doctors to prescribe their shitty pills with all their addictive and soul killing side effects so that they can make the big bucks. Cha Ching! Month after month.

It’s not. I repeat. Anxiety is NOT a Disease.

There is no “anxiety” germ. There is no anxiety “virus”.

Other than the metaphorical “thought virus” that anxiety really is,

Anxiety is thinking about what you do not want to have happen.

It’s really the same as “worry”… just a bit more intense.

What’s worry? Thinking about bad shit happening. Often to our LOVED ones! Why would anyone DO that?

We all have this ability. It comes with the “human software download” you got when you signed up for this lifetime.

Unlike all the other animals, we can imagine a future that we don’t like.

The flip side of this is that we can also imagine a future that we DO like.

Either way, your unconscious mind gives you the “biochemistry” of whatever you are focusing on with your “mental movie screen”…

Before this morphs into a full blown “rant”… I’m going to go turn the video camera on just in case it gets interesting…
[Here’s what I ranted up for you]
Okay, that felt better…   (BTW If you ever feel so inclined to “go deep for cheap” you can always check out all 80 or so videos I’ve  uploaded to my Honest Hypnosis YouTube channel so far since JULY!  :o)

The bottom line is that only YOU have the power to stop your old patterns and habitual ways of thinking that cause your unconscious mind to react with fight, flight or freeze biochemistry.

As I mention in the video, sometimes our negative thinking patterns about the future are so insidious and “normal” that we don’t even notice that we are doing it… Kind of like the fish in the ocean don’t really “notice” the ocean.

Well that makes sense right? That’s literally what we mean by being “unconscious”.

It’s happening outside of our conscious awareness…

And though it may be outside of our conscious awareness, it is really happening on your “internal storyboard” and it really affects what hormones are triggered in your body which in turn creates “how you feel.”

The Honest truth is that the only way to actually “cure” anxiety is to change your thinking, to change your focus and to do it enough so that you install a new habitual way of automatically responding to the world and life’s little (and not so little) bumps, curves, hills, valleys, or mountains.

You see, one thing nobody else is telling you, is that your immune system is constantly eves dropping on your self talk. Immune systems have the ability to actually listen and LEARN.

So what you are doing unconsciously actually matters a great deal. And as I’ve said a gazillion times, hypnosis is really the “process of communicating effectively with your unconscious mind”.

It’s not hocus pocus or some magical power that suddenly happens when some creepy asshole starts swinging a watch and telling you to go into trance…

Hypnosis is YOU running your own stream of consciousness in a way that actually gets you what you want instead of what you don’t want.

Oh! What a surprise!?!…

All that stuff that you’ve been getting i n your life that you don’t want? Your “old” hypnosis brought that in. Hmmm Let’s see what the “new” hypnosis could do if  you gave it a chance!

So just a quick reminder, CRUSH anxiety NOW! increases in price Tomorrow. It will still be reasonably priced and affordable but it will never again be THIS CHEAP. So if you are curious about going deeper with me, check it out. The risk is on me. A bunch of you awesome action takers have already jumped in and are already CRUSHING the “beast” of anxiety… Cowabungah!  Looking forward to your questions and success stories! OH YEAH!

CRUSH anxiety NOW!  Cheap… Price… set… to expire…

[wpdevart_countdown text_for_day=”Days” text_for_hour=”Hours” text_for_minut=”Minutes” text_for_second=”Seconds” start_time=”1446052439″ end_time=”1,,” action_end_time=”show_text” content_position=”center” top_ditance=”10″ bottom_distance=”10″ ]times up![/wpdevart_countdown]

In the meantime, I will see YOU on the… INSIDE!

p.s. A shout out to all the new Transformation Nation Peeps like locals, Dottie and Jeremy from my home town of Albany NY and the fabulous, far away Peter from New Zealand… NEW ZEALAND. Where it’s already tomorrow! Way to go Peter! Also Brian from California! Kristan from Pennsylvania, Welcome!!!! The “Transformation Nation” is assembling… MIND MASTERY ROCKS!

Life Outside The Box

October 27, 2015 by Mark Shepard

19728676_m-2Imagine a box.

You’ve lived your entire life in this box.

It is beautiful.

It is comfortable.

It is safe.

You’ve got all your favorite things right there…

And then one day…

[Here’s the video version or just keep reading. It all leads to the same place…]

One day you hear a sound…

It’s coming from a long locked, unused closet door that somehow no-one knew about… or that hatchway in the ceiling… that someone painted shut…

It sounds like Someone or some thing is knocking on the door… of your box.

Whoever is knocking keeps banging and banging until the plaster of that part of your beautiful home begins to crack and fall …

What a mess! You think. And you also might be feeling a little “trepidation” or uncertainty or downright fear.

“Who is out there!?!?”

“What is out there?!?!?!?”

You retreat to the farthest corner of your “box”… and watch in horror and fascination as…

Eventually the hatch swings downward  or the door swings inward and some friendly guy who you’ve never met before pops his head into your little world and says,

“Hey! There’s a great big world out here for you to explore! I’ve come to rescue you from your limited little world, your box… your cage. Your comfort zone. Come out and be free! Come out and Play!”

If you’re like most people. You would do just about anything to shut that guy up, close that door, and reseal it like it was never there…

“Cage! How DARE he call my lovely world a ‘CAGE!’ GO AWAY!”

And if you did that, no one would blame you….

However… after a time wandering back around through your “known world”, your “box”… your “home”… you will find yourself wondering,

“hmmmm What IS out there? What if I AM missing something really good?”

Eventually, you might want to open that door yourself… curiosity can be insatiable…

And I’m not suggesting you are curious… but if you were curious, what would that be like?

And when you do…. carefully,…. gingerly peek out…

at first you might not even be able to focus in the new light… or you may not be able to conceive of what is out there, or perceive it…

And the guy who originally knocked on your door? Pounded your hatchway open a bit… is he a god? a saint? a messiah?

Nope.

He’s just a guy who went through exactly the same thing, just a little sooner than you did.

So he has set about finding all the little cages and boxes that people have shut themselves up in and he is calling you OUT.

Calling you out into a vast adventure that we call “the awakened life”.

At the end of your first day out in the wide open spaces, you might want to slip back in to your familiar comfortable “place”… and that’s fine… it’s a good place… it’s a relief…

But eventually you will want more… The brilliant sun and sweet breezes and the fullness of life in the vastness of the universe is simply too breathtakingly beautiful to ignore.

You want it. Don’t you?

Well you can have it. Come on out and play. Join us!

Essentially what I’ve described is the bare bones formula of pretty much every adventure/fantasy story or “heroic journey” ever written, filmed, or told around a fire.

The main character is going along quite nicely in his or her life, Bilbo Baggins has very little need of Wizards and Drwarves, Elves, or dragons… But something interrupts that routine, that pattern, and he is called out of his limited comfort zone into something bigger. Along the way he learns some things about himself and the world and his place in it. His knowledge and confidence grows, he begins to respond to events as they arise. As best he or she can. And it turns out, our little scaredy cat character has grown into an actual hero.

In the Russian story of Baba Yaga, a young girl is forced out of her home and on an unwilling adventure… along the way she meets a mysterious stranger on the road… she is kind to him. He gives her advice, or a magic hunting horn, or the gift of a talking crow… Whatever it is, it has magic powers for her to call upon when she most needs it…

She continues on… eventually she makes other friends whom the witch has treated badly, A dog, a gate, a comb, a fish, a certain tree… whatever. It changes depending on the version of the story…

By the time she meets the witch, she has support, help arrives from many places, many sources…

Since our unconscious minds LOVE story and metaphor. Crave it, actually, these lessons are internalized into our deepest beings…

When we commit fully to our own heroic journeys, I believe the “universe” conspires to support us.

This is such a human universal that I believe we need to pay attention to it. As a professional storyteller, I used to watch hundreds of school kids settle down into what can only be described as a trance, as I told them stories…

We are a storytelling people. But what stories have we been telling ourselves lately?

In CS Lewis’ classic, “The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe” Access to the “other world” is through the back of an old wardrobe… Time is different there. The “rules” are different there.

But the characters we step into as we read or watch a story unfold are as real to your unconscious mind as anything else you might imagine… remember?

Your unconscious mind is your imagination.

That’s why when you go to see a movie, your heart rate increases as the main character runs head long to a cliff and then jumps…

Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid hunted down by a posse, choose to leap off a cliff into a raging river rather than be caught… boom! Fourth grade. I’m watching that movie with my next door neighbor Peter Miller. All I have to do is remember and I’m there… I’m in the movie seat but I’m also in the movie and my heart catches in my mouth as we jump over the edge into that crazy river…

Alice falls down a rabbit hole into a totally topsy turvy, crazy different realm.

Harry Potter discovers that he’s not like other kids… for real.

Wherever you go in your imagination, your unconscious mind believes it’s real.

Once you know that, you can start imagining better and better worlds… and then begin to live them authentically in your life, and that’s how we make them real.

I can’t climb down into your world… It doesn’t work that way…

But you CAN come on up and out into this one…

and there are others even bigger than this!

This is the adventure of your life.

I dare you.

I double dare you.

I double dawg dare you!

Explore it with me or without me.

Today I could be playing the part of the mysterious “stranger” on the road.

Whatever, my job is to let you know it’s here… and it is yours.

– Mark

p.s. One way to stick your toe in the water before you fully climb into your greatness, is to check out CRUSH anxiety NOW!  at its, soon to be forever gone, “beta test” price… you can always get a refund… it’s ridiculously cheap… It’s worth 10 times the price.

Give it a shot. Take a test drive. You’ve got nothing to lose except your fear.

Take the puppy home and keep it overnight… see how you like it in the morning…

Peek your head out today… that’s all I’m saying…

No big commitment. If you don’t like it you can go back to being the way you were… Not everybody is ready for freedom. There is no judgement. But I HAVE to knock. It’s my job. It’s my calling. It’s my destiny.

Come on out and play!

CRUSH anxiety NOW!

Your Mind Is A Lens

October 26, 2015 by Mark Shepard

hh-10-26-lens-focus-ss1A Monday Morning Mind Mastery Moment…

Well…Well… Welcome, welcome, welcome… to MONDAY morning! (okay so it’s AFTERNOON. It STARTED out early this morning…)

By the time you see this… it may be Thursday evening or a year from now or whenever… hopefully the kick ass Transformational content I’m about to share with you is pertinent and applicable and immediately helpful no matter WHEN or where you are right now… THAT IS, if you’re READY to hear what I have to say… if not that’s cool too…

Read on! (or watch the video). Extra points for both! :o)

[here’s the video in case you are visually inclined]

Anyway, A lot happened over the weekend.

A lot of new budding mind masters joined the Transformation Nation… (use the handy yellow opt-in form and experience the love and grooviness for your self if you haven’t yet joined us…).

Over the weekend, a lot of new folks grabbed my new, CRUSH anxiety NOW program at the ridiculously low “VIP beta test” price.

Speaking of which, One of my favorite CRUSH anxiety NOW customers, Linda, stepped up and shared with the “process” she is going through in her battle with GAD.

She writes in response to my posts from the previous few days where we were talking about Imagination being Your Unconscious Mind and your Will being your Conscious mind…

Letter from a real person
==================

My UCM is my imagination and my conscious mind is my will. Imagination always trumps will. Oh my, seems hopeless, but it doesn’t have to stay that way… I suppose I am thinking that way because of the GAD?
I know that I want to be free from the anxiety!!
– Linda

==================

I wrote back to her with this:

You aren’t thinking “that way” because of the GAD. You have the GAD because you are thinking “that way”. Make sense? – Mark

===================

Why is Linda one of my favorites? Because she is WORKING on her stuff. Because she writes to me. A lot. Because she is consistently, bravely stepping into new ideas that challenge her old, painful, victim paradigm…

And truth be told… Because she is so much like the way I was when I was first discovering that the only consistent factor in my own anxiety and misery, was my old way of thinking…

hold that thought… someone at the door…

ok.

Back.

It was a friend of mine, “M.” who’s going through some really tough stuff in his life too.

Just like Linda, He’s really beginning to ‘get’ that even in the midst of deeply, challenging times, he is healing and growing and coming to new understandings about what’s real, what’s imagined, what are the old patterns and where are the new opportunities for stepping into one’s own personal power to “own” our own experiences.

Both my friend and Linda and so many other Transformation Nation members are demonstrations of the courage to go for something truly bigger, better, healthier, more congruent for our lives.

The sad truth is most folks in the vast masses of the “99%” are clueless to the fact that every… single… day… they are creating their own experience here on earth, in their bodies… They are creating an experience that starts and ends with their thoughts, with their perceptions, beliefs, generalizations, distortions, and deletions of this thing called “reality”…

The filter of all of this is your unconscious mind…. it’s kind of like a glass magnifying lens.

Your conscious mind acts like a the frame of a lens… it turns the lens every which way and attempts to focus it…

The magnifying lens is your unconscious mind… as you move it back and forth, closer and farther the things you can see through it change… sometimes it’s out of focus… sometimes it’s sharp and clear…

If you focus the Sun through a magnifying glass onto a piece of paper or a dried leaf, you can start a fire… The lens doesn’t change the Sun. But it focuses the powerful rays of the Sun in helpful or hurtful ways. The lens doesn’t judge. The lens is just doing what it does. Aligning visual light.

It is the “operator,” the person holding the magnifying glass, that determines what it is going to “frame” or show, magnify or distort.

And then, because of the wonderful power of our minds to form “habits”, whatever you focus on long enough, with enough emotional intensity, eventually becomes a “fixed frame” and stays in place even when you are not consciously holding it there…

So if the frame is focusing your UCM on what a victim you are and how “bad” everything is, and “how everyone is out to get you” or how helpless and hopeless your are or what a victim you are or whatever, THAT is the energy that your body will react to “as if it is real”.

Enter the “fight or flight” response…. BOOM!

But it’s no more real than if you had built a “frame” over time that held your focus on how much of a damn miracle it is simply to be alive, simply to be able to experience the intense beauty of this Autumn day… and then to expand THAT focus and perception to ALL the miracles in your life.

All the the “miracles of the modern world” that you are constantly in contact with… from the touch screen on your phone to the fact that when it gets cold outside your home thermostat automatically calls for just the right amount of heat from your heating system…

and you could take that “lens” of the miraculous, and look ANYWHERE, EVERYWHERE and see your pre-supposition of the miraculous being confirmed…

Focus now on the fact that you are breathing. That your heart is beating. That your body is regulating your temperature and digesting your food…

THAT is a freaking miracle. And it happens automatically whether you are focusing consciously on it or not.

So the entire purpose of CRUSH anxiety NOW! (as well as pretty much all my other courses, no matter what the specific subject matter or “focus” is) is to give you the tools to INTERRUPT the old patterns of thought and behavior and put you in the consciously powerful place of gently and lovingly “breaking” the old “frame” and PRACTICING HOLDING the new frame, and the new focus, until THAT becomes your new Habitual way of looking at the world…

Whew! Does that make sense on a Monday?

I wanted to start the week with you by giving you some of my BEST stuff.

My focus. My frame. My unbending intention, is to show up for you with the keys to an incredible, positive, empowered, healthy, joyful, loving experience of your life.

I can’t “make” you put these keys into the locks that hold the chains and cage doors of your old life, and I can’t “make” you turn the keys to open the locks, but I can put them within your reach so that when you are ready, you can take the keys, open the doors, drop the chains and come out into the bright sunlight… of your own CHOICE… to hang out with us “cool creatives” who are practicing this stuff too…

I’m here for you when you shuffle out blinking into the lightness of being that is your birthright.

Let’s DO THIS! Let’s transform your life into something beyond fabulous.

I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again.

“We either make our lives miserable or we make our lives magical. The amount of work is the same.”

And, I might add, the tools and techniques are the same as well. We are all using our minds to create something.

What if?…

(and here’s an example of a positive “What if”)

What if, we used these fabulous minds of ours to create something amazing?

Something fabulous?

Something better than the best sex?

Better than the best food?

Better than the best music?

Better than the most entertaining movie in theaters or available for instant streaming online?

Are you in? Want to check it out?

I’ve created something that I think could help you to kick start your new reality. It’s called,

CRUSH anxiety NOW!

I’m really proud of it. It’s one of the best things I’ve ever created. I want you to have it.

It is 31 days of me showing up and helping you to interrupt and “CRUSH” the old pattern of anxiety.

Not “someday”.

Now.

Anxiety, If you will recall from my previous posts, is:

“Thinking about what you do not want to have happen in the future…

…and your Unconscious Mind (which runs your body), physiologically REACTING to that projection in your mind as if it is real.”

Anyone can say, “Change Your Mind and Change Your Life” but in this course, I teach you dozens of ways you can actually do that. FAST. I give you a full palette of colors from which to choose to change the painting of your mind and your thinking.

AND if I say so myself, we have a hell of a lot of fun doing it.

Teaching it to you helps me to LIVE it. Watching you LIVE it is better than just about anything else i get to experience in my own life… It’s fabulous to see you grow my friend.

Hearing from people like Linda and watching my friend M. putting these ideas into practice every day causes me to want to send even more ripples out into the world of people taking charge of their change and stepping into their power to perceive a VASTLY different world…

And that is my core MISSION.

To help 1,000 people… 10,000 people… 100,000 people to discover a world that is vastly different than the average 99% cubicle slave focusing on how to look busy but get done only what’s absolutely necessary so as to not make the other cubicle slaves look bad… or what to say at the water cooler about that sad little TV show that everybody else watches on Sunday nights while they are recovering from their weekend of recovering from their miserable shitty week…

BLECCH!

You are better than that!

I believe you have something special to share with the world and maybe it is as simple as allowing the spark of your authentically joyful smile to shine as you dance through your amazing life.

But if you’re like most of us here at Transformation Nation central, you have amazing gifts that you long to share with the world in a way that makes a positive difference.

Your presence here in this world, on this planet MATTERS. We just have to stop ourselves from stopping ourselves. We have to love ourselves enough to allow ourselves to love ‘what is’.

So if you haven’t yet checked out “CRUSH anxiety NOW!” at the bargain basement “beta test” price, you might want to… practice being the action taking mind master in training who invests in yourself, and goes for it,

(unless of course you want to wait until we raise the price to where it “should” be in order to reflect the MASSIVE value I’ve built into this course so that you don’t feel like you’re taking advantage of me… LOL… ;o)

====================

This is weird,  I just got an email from my business partner. He said, “Let your people know that on Thursday, October 29th the price of CRUSH anxiety NOW is going up to $99”

====================

I think He’s just a bit jealous at how cheap the course is because he paid $2,500 for the same stuff…

AND HE INSISTS THAT IT WAS MORE THAN WORTH IT AT THAT PRICE…

(sorry I had to shout cuz I’m so excited by the fact that my business partner is fvcking awesome at APPLYING his CRUSH anxiety techniques so well that he’s rocketed himself to being WORTHY of coaching ME! LOL… HOW COOL IS THAT? and there are certain things that I totally trust his coaching on… so the price will go up on Thursday… actually he wanted Wednesday but I negotiated more time for you. :o)…

And while I’ve scaled way back on my one on one private coaching work, I still check and answer my emails from my students every single day. THAT’s my MISSION.

And this extremely full post is an example of that…

This is my truest and highest work… Inspired by Linda and Ronald and Eric, and Mike, And “Wez-we” and the thousands of folks all over the world who have been finding my work and applying it in their lives over the past 13 or so years.

Thank you for your presence and patience and persistence and PRACTICE!

…Damn! How did THREE hours go by so FAST? It’s almost Noon my time… LOL

Time for Breakfast. TTYL.
