FREE Gratitude Pencils
Thank you for your generosity!
The Power of the Pencil
I've made it a habit to find five things I am grateful for before I
get out of bed. Typically it's my son, the house that I live in,
my ability to communicate, the warm water that comes out of my
shower etc.
I also noticed that each day, I kept adding little things to the
list that I used to take for granted. I sure know I did not
appreciate many of these things too long ago. But his morning I
felt inspired.
A few weeks ago I was invited by two of my heroes,to share my
experience with hundreds of people of how wonderful it was to
attend the Attract Wealth Seminar in Austin Texas and how much my
own life has changed.
I had a whole elaborate speech prepared, but at the
last minute decided to toss it out and opt for inspiration.
I was elated to be able to express my gratitude for life and to
several people that have been key players in helping me take The
Halcyon Center to a whole new level.
The other man, whose name I shall disclose to you in a second is a
person that I credit with my biggest A-ha moment. There have in
fact been many, but the catalyst for the MAJOR turning point in my
life, was his book Spiritual Marketing. It was re-printed as The
Attractor Factor.
If you have read it, you know by now that the man I am referring to
is none other than the magical Dr. Joe Vitale. I chose the word
magical because the vibration around this man is just that.
If you have not read any of his books (He has written too many to mention here)
but the name still sounds familiar, he is the teacher from the hit movie The Secret that
says "You are the Michelangelo of your life, and the David that you are sculpting is YOU!".
I got to meet with him in Maui last year, and again this year in Austin.
I not only got to thank him personally but I got to meet the amazing people around this man,
Including his beautiful love Nerissa, which has also changed my life immeasurably.
Joe is the inspiration for today's message from me.
For those of you who are not familiar with Dr. Vitale, he is
certainly not your uptight suit wearing, bone crunching
millionaire. Although he is a seasoned entrepreneur, and one of
the most successful Marketers in the world, commanding upwards of
$150,000 for a single marketing campaign, Dr. Vitale is also a
Metaphysical Practitioner hence, Spiritual Marketing.
If you can imagine the energy of a Franciscan friar, Shakespeare
and P.T. Barnum all rolled into one with the cutest dimples and big
beautiful warm brown eyes that emanate love, you've got a picture
of Joe.
I have observed this man, and he glows ...and gives off the vibration
of a person who lives in a perpetual state of gratitude, hence the
miraculous life he has created for himself.
What is so interesting about that? Well Joe was not always this way!
Joe has told the story of the "pencil" numerous times, and THE
PENCIL has become a "symbol" for me of the power of gratitude. This
may sound a bit strange at first, but stick with me here... You will
understand in a minute.
Have you ever felt stuck? As if there is absolutely NOTHING you can
find in your life to be grateful for? I know I have had those days,
and so did Joe. He talks about it all the time.
There was a time Joe's life when he was completely suicidal!
Joe felt as if he had NOTHING to be grateful for in life. He was a
writer that was "down on his luck" and things were just not
happening for him. He was despondent and depressed.
Somebody told him that he should be grateful; He said he would be
grateful when he had something to be grateful for and someone told
him it did not work that way. You need to be grateful for what you
have NOW!
Joe said since he basically had NOTHING in his life he could think of
to be grateful for... NO home, car or anything else he
found a PENCIL. He looked at the pencil and thought "I can write
the great American novel or I can write a suicide note.... If I
don't like it I can erase it etc...."
At that point he began to realize what a powerful tool a pencil was
and that is what marked the beginning of Joe's current success. Now
factor in everybody else who he has inspired and has had success thanks to his
inspiration and all of those down the line that will continue to benefit from what I now call The Power of The Pencil!
This is Universe Rocking stuff people!
Shakespeare would love this!
When was the last time you were grateful for anything?
Make a daily list of at least 5 things that you are grateful for in
your life! No excuses just DO IT! It's not difficult. Make it one
of your habits!
I will let you in on a secret! A big one! Do you know what the real
definition of wealth is? For me it is GRATITUDE!
At the beginning of my email I told you I was inspired this morning
and here is where you have a chance to express your gratitude!
I have launched a POWER OF THE PENCIL campaign. The aim is to
raise money in order to give formerly abused /divorced destitute
women a fair shot at making it on their own.
Some of them have taken responsibility for themselves by leaving,
but many of them go back because they cannot find the
means to stand on their own two fee, as they have never worked outside of their homes.
Some others wind up at shelters, simply because they are divorced and are in the same position , and therefore cannot afford to support themselves and their
children.
We provide them with essential tools: We create audio CD 's for them with inspirational chats, meditations, positive affirmations and we let them borrow books
from The Halcyon Library by teachers and authors that send a message of personal empowerment.
We offer day long courses (twice per month) where they are invited
to come share and partake in meditation and spiritual work.
They are charged a minimal amount for the courses and materials.
This campaign has been fully funded by yours truly until now!
It's not enough! They need more help and now I am asking for your help.. See how cool this is?
Think of how many more women we can reach with your help.
I apologize if I am starting to sound like a Feed the Children commercial folks but this is a cause that is incredibly important to me!
Through expressing your gratitude( for women, we all have a mom, sister, friend etc) you can help by co-sponsoring the cost of the materials that will keep
these ladies reaching for their goals and focused on a new way of
life.
Single pencils are free. All you pay for is postage and packaging.
How do we raise money? You make a donation, any amount helps no
amount is too small.
Those of you who donate $20.00 or more, you will receive my Elemental Gratitude Power Affirmations infused with Ho'oponopono in down loadable mp3 format. Value $ 29.99 each this will give you a MAJOR power boost! Its rocket fuel for the soul!
Isn't life grand! It is one of my ways of thanking The Universe for
my wonderful life!
It's FREE! Go LOOK!
