"Whatever the mind can conceive & believe the mind can achieve."
Napoleon Hill's "Daily Practice" and more. . .
"I bargained with life for a penny and life would pay no more, however, I begged at evening when I counted my scanty store; For life is a just employer he gives you what you ask but, once you have set the wages why, you must bear the task; I worked for a menial's hire only to learn dismayed that any wage I had asked of life, life would have willingly paid."
From Napoleon Hill's book, The Master-Key to Riches.
What I'd give to have a Conversation with him <smile>

The American
Association of Retired Persons held a contest in 2007 on YouTube called
"U@50". The concept was to ask for videos to be submitted by people
between the ages of 18-30 and expand upon the subject of what they
expect their lives to be like at the age of 50.
Although first place was awarded to a film studies student at Emerson College in Boston, it
was the second place video that has since taken on a life of its own.
Created by Jonathan Reed, the video is entitled "Lost Generation". The
video is a version of a Palindrome
in which a voiceover is used to read the words appearing on the screen
from top to bottom, and then reverses itself reading each line up the
page and back to the top, changing the meaning of each statement.
The video has been viewed more than 11 million times on YouTube.
Here is the text. Read it and then read it again in reverse.
Lost Generation by Jonathan Reed
I am part of a lost generation
and I refuse to believe that
I can change the world
I realize this may be a shock but
“Happiness comes from within.”
is a lie, and
“Money will make me happy.”
So in 30 years I will tell my children
they are not the most important thing in my life
My employer will know that
I have my priorities straight because
work
is more important than
family
I tell you this
Once upon a time
Families stayed together
but this will not be true in my era
This is a quick fix society
Experts tell me
30 years from now, I will be celebrating the 10th anniversary of my
divorce
I do not concede that
I will live in a country of my own making
In the future
Environmental destruction will be the norm
No longer can it be said that
My peers and I care about this earth
It will be evident that
My generation is apathetic and lethargic
It is foolish to presume that
There is hope.
And all of this will come true unless we choose to
reverse it .

Early on in the first 90-Day Challenge I noticed, very clearly, that people's beliefs were (mostly) what was getting in their way of accomplishing their goals. What was happening was evidence of what I've claimed for a good while:
What your mind believes you will achieve— always and in all ways.
Being the guy who put the Belief Busters program together, this was a wonderful opportunity to expose the people in the Challenge to the ideas, tools & techniques I'd developed for transcending our limiting Beliefs. So, we did this call. It's a pretty comprehensive explanation and exploration of the whole business of Beliefs and how to have them serve our Values & Vision.
It's a long one. Lots of substance & value. We cover how and when Beliefs are formed, what they are & how they operate, Belief & Belove, BeliefBusters First-Aid, managing your thoughts & emotions, the FADWAS (Fear Anger Doubt Worry Anxiety Sadness), the BeliefBuster Process from Current Reality to Vision, and all focused on the vital importance of your having your beliefs NOT your beliefs having you. [01:07:35]
You're invited to a "real, live" Coaching Call with the inspiring men & women of The

And so you can learn if this is something you want...
What does it
take to bring what you desire & dream of into being? Is it the same
or a different process from problem solving?
What's the role of belief… and does what you believe about what's
possible or even believe about yourself,
your talents & skills matter in the creative process? What about the
past— what is its importance? And what do
you know about "structure" and it's role & place in the creative
process?

In this podcast-clip, I asked Simon about how we "discover" our WHY (if we don't already know what it is). Simon said (not says <smile>) that we have our WHY in place by the time we're into our late teenage years. Your WHY is the value (and values) you bring to the world— and what the world values most about you. So... how do you find out what your WHY is? I think you'll enjoy Simon's simple process.[5:13]

Yesterday, I completed my first session of Conversations with a Master of "The Creative process," Robert Fritz. I'm such the liar that although I promised my subscribers they'd have it in their hands on April 15th... they'll get it Monday (the 5th) <smile>. Under promise & over-deliver.
Today, I'm recording with Simon Sinek, a Master of... well... Inspiration. What? Here, from the first chapter of his book Start With Why is a bit more about what that means. (Incidentally, clicking the title link back up there will get you a PDF file of that entire chapter. Great examples of people & companies that Inspire.)
What if we could all learn to think, act and communicate like those who inspire?
I imagine a world in which the ability to inspire is practiced not just by a chosen few, but by the majority. Studies show that over 80 percent of Americans do not have their dream job.
If more knew how to build organizations that inspire, we could live in a world in which that statistic was the reverse— a world in which over 80 percent of people loved their jobs.
People who love going to work are more productive and more creative. They go home happier and have happier families. They treat their colleagues and clients and customers better. Inspired employees make for stronger companies and stronger economies. That is why I wrote this book. I hope to inspire others to do the things that inspire them so that together we may build the companies, the economy and a world in which trust and loyalty are the norm and not the exception. This book is not designed to tell you what to do or how to do it. Its goal is not to give you a course of action. Its goal is to offer you the cause of action.

Hi, it's John,
"I just don't have the money." I heard THAT more times
in the past week than. . . So many people who WANT
to get Conversations told me they couldn't even afford
the $248 Annual Subscription (Cut back from $488).
I don't hate many things, but I HATE it when the price
of something as important & valuable as the information
that can change people's lives for the better forever is
out of reach financially.
Makes me cry. Literally. Been there. Not fun.
So. . . Here's what I'm doing about it. (No strings. No
hooks. Just a simple lowered-price offer so you & others
you know CAN afford what I've got for you.)
Many people told me they COULD afford to subscribe
to Conversations IF it was a monthly pay. $248 was
just too much in one hit. So, how about. . .
$28 a month. . .
The people who paid $248 saved $88 a year-- and you
can still do that. I'm going to keep that price going. It
just seems right. So, your choice. Low monthly. Money-
saving annual. BOTH bargain prices.
http://JohnMiltonFogg.com/Conversations
No "urgency." It's there and will be for a while-- at least
until the first 250 people subscribe. Then it will go up.
I sincerely want people to have this resource. I promise
it will be some of the best-- and sometimes THE best--
you'll find on how to have more & better in your life and
work.
I just completed editing my Conversation with Robert
Fritz. Amazing! Controversial, too. Robert will rock your
boat with things like "Belief doesn't matter. Creating does."
And "Positive thinking & Affirmations are lying to yourself."
Ooooookaaaay. Sometimes we learn & grow MORE from
things with disagree with-- and there's also LOTS to
agree with from Robert. He is a Master Teacher of the
Creative Process.
There's a clip on the site from our Conversation.
Check it out.
http://JohnMiltonFogg.com/Conversations
$28 bucks a month for "The Greatest Master Teachers
of Transformation in the World" I know. I'll bring them
to you. And for less.
Thanks.
I appreciate you.

Robert
Fritzis an artist, composer, filmmaker and
organizational consultant. He is the founder of Technologies For Creating® and
author of the international bestseller The Path of Least
Resistance and Your Life As Art. Robert is a mentor & master of the mechanics, orientation, and
spirit of the creative process.
In this podcast-clip, Robert speaks about the differences between problem solving & creating. Problem solving, Fritz says, is about taking action to have something go away— the problem. Creating is about bringing something into existence. We can solve all our problems and still not create what we want.
