Earlier this year I mentioned that this was going to be my year of power. And it has been so far. It's been a pretty amazing year...in kind of an odd way. I've experienced a lot of abrupt and unforeseen changes in my life. Some were completely unexpected. Others were more like, "Well, I knthat had to change but I just didn't know how to get out of that rut."
Here's another change:
I decided to no longer be a victim as a usable doormat to people anymore. And I decided to stand up in every situation I felt was wrong or wasn't working for me. Of course, this makes me a lonely person with very few people in my life but that only means all the loser deadbeats are now gone. When I'm ready, I'll have to start lining myself up with some awesome people. Right now I'm on a mission to do bigger and better things business-wise.
I also decided to lose weight. Which I have. (And I'm still losing the weight but I'm about halfway there.)
I decided to stop drinking altogether. I'm not sure if this will be a permanent change. I'm not discounting the possibility of an odd drink here or there for special occasions. But for now, I stopped drinking. I didn't drink at all during Thanksgiving and likely I won't be drinking for Christmas or New Years either.
So...why this latest conquest of change?
This year has given me a couple of "closures" on some lingering issues that are finally over.
A big issue of closure for me was how I was running my business with a specific marketing strategy that I abruptly decided I'm no longer going to be doing anymore effective immediately.
Another issue was the types of products I've been marketing. Just like with the marketing strategy, seemingly overnight I just abruptly closed the door on that too.
With that said, I have this feeling of great strength now that I finally closed a chapter in my book of life and I'm starting to begin to write a new one this week. When something comes to completion, it only opens up a new road with new exciting beginnings because the old is flushed away. Maybe this is what you're experiencing right now. At least I hope so. Otherwise maybe you're feeling stuck or perhaps on the wrong road in life. And that is always a sucky place to be.
So, how to do you start to gain your power back? How do you take the bull by the horns in your own life and guide your own path? You just start doing it, that's how. But you first need a direction otherwise the bull you have by the horns won't know where to go on your life's path.
I'll be the first to tell you the truth and that is life really IS stacked against you. It only gets worse as we succumb to constant distractions, "fake news," celebrity bullshit, political scandal, the latest iPhone release, game apps, the latest shiny penny...and then we wonder why the hell life is going so fast without us accomplishing much. If anything we are actually losing a grip, losing control, and losing at life.
Last month my attorney asked my "opinion" when really he was just broaching a conversation. He asked why I think (at his age) that life is going by so fast? He said it seemed like only yesterday when we were celebrating the New Year and now it's almost Christmas. In a blink of an eye. Just like that.
I told him that I thought it was much like driving on auto-pilot. We do the same things each day, especially the older we get. We are chained to a monotonous schedule. Same thing every day. Same thing every week. Like the movie Groundhog Day. Months roll over. Then we're back at Christmas and thinking WTF?! Where did the time go?
But next year will be different, right? We'll buckle down on those Resolutions and we'll make something happen in the next New Year. Right?
That's probably what you said on January 1st of this year, too. Except today is November 28th and not much has happened with those New Year's Resolutions yet, has it?
In order to get what you want, you have to start pounding the iron with force, tenacity, and great will to succeed. Get off your ass and start working some kind of actionable business plan already.
What the hell are you waiting for?
And if you don't have any kind of business plan in mind, I have a kick-ass idea for you to get out of that rut, out of that life of being broke all the time, and out of that cesspool of frustration and desperation that you've been swirling in.
Remember, nothing changes by itself. There is no ship that just comes sailing in for you. You have to swim out to the damn ship.
Or better yet, build one from scratch.

I've been a wealth trainer for more than 20 years and I've found that there is a COMMON THREAD among every student of mine who never becomes successful.
What is that COMMON THREAD?
Not enough attention to the details and NO FOLLOW-THROUGH.
Many of the students I work with believe that they will read one of my books and suddenly they are "schooled" enough in being able to start a multi-million-dollar business. They're not even willing to attend a seminar, mentorship group, or study my course materials yet they believe they're rippin' ready to jump into starting their online business.
Then...in the 11th hour, they back out. Some will get just inches from the finish line and they drop out of the game, detoured by fear (mostly because they didn't go deep enough in the learning process to understand what to do next), and then they recess into the mediocre life of what's always been. Never to become successful with anything.
I hope that does NOT include you. It probably doesn't because most of my students understand the value of learning everything they can before jumping into the big, bad world of real business.
With that said, I have something VERY IMPORTANT to tell you about the rapid changes in our economy. You absolutely MUST watch a short video that I have prepared for you. CLICK HERE to watch it now. In fact, I highly recommend that you STOP all working on or with any type of business until you watch this somewhat shocking new direction that I'd like to see you pursue for maximum cash flow potential.
CLICK HERE to find out what this is all about RIGHT NOW!
Years ago I started sharing this story with my students around Thanksgiving about why I hate pumpkin pie; how my mom used to make pumpkin pies from scratch and she's make so many of them that she's force-feed the remaining balance (usually upwards of 6 or 7 pies) of what she couldn't give away to friends and family to both me and my brother.
And how, to this day, I absolutely refuse to eat pumpkin pie. In fact, I really don't like any pie at all. My brother Jason also feels the same way.
Interestingly enough, my daughter had her first "Thanksgiving feast" at school where she got to eat pumpkin pie. She told me that it was so disgusting that she spit it out in a trash can.
And I laughed. I thought it was funny as hell. Could she have gotten the anti-pumpkin pie gene from me? (Nice thought, although I believe that would be considered scientifically impossible considering that my experience with pumpkin pie was entirely "environmental," if you know what I mean.)
I went on to say that the problem with the pie she ate was that it was store-bought. And the baked goods they sell in a store isn't nearly as good as the real thing. But I couldn't help myself in telling her my experience with real homemade pumpkin pie and why both me and her Uncle Jay refuse to eat any pie at all. She didn't say much other than to boldly state that she loves apple pie, as it's the greatest pie in the world, according to her.
It's interesting how life works, isn't it? I've come to understand so much about life in having a child's eyes to see the world through. And it's made me so grateful for all the good and even the challenges I face on a week-to-week basis.
If you think about it, no matter how hard things get, we really do have it good. At least that's the way I see it. So many people are sitting in war-torn countries, some are homeless, and some are even missing limbs.
We are blessed in so many ways and it's pretty easy to forget about all these daily miracles we get to reap. But maybe today, just once, we can see it for what it is and feel that deep sense of gratitude for everything we have and for everything we are.
If you're one of those people who actually believes you have nothing right now to be grateful for (hey, maybe it was a tough year for you) then at least feel grateful for what can manifest in your life in the months to come.
What a lot of people don't realize about me is that I don't care about any loss that may happen in my life (except for what's not replaceable). Why? Because I can create it again and again and again. I've taken a few major financial hits in my life. And with each time, I've gotten it all back plus some because I have the tools necessary to do it; these "tools" are nothing more than what I have stored in my brain.
When you're the goose that lays the golden egg and you know that you can create everything you want, it really does make a huge difference.
So, if this was a challenging year for you, be grateful for the amazing things that are coming up for you because you've done a few things that are pivotal in your life: (1) you've decided that you're not going to settle for less anymore, (2) you're going to get your ass out there and finally do this, and (3) you know that you can make this happen because you now have the tools to do this.
Many of you know that I'm a feng shui believer. And for those of you who have NO CLUE about feng shui, I'll give you the one-second explanation: it's an Asian technique to "refocus" energy in your house and work space to make significant changes in your life.
I know...sounds a little "hokey pokey." At least that's what I thought before I became a huge believer by seeing the things feng shui have done for my life.
I've told the story in a couple of my seminar events in years past. About 15 years ago I had a lawsuit that tore my entire personal and professional life apart...down to losing absolutely everything I had.
Me and my 2nd husband (at the time) ended up moving into a rental house that was (and still is) owned by his mother. She allowed us to move in without paying her any rent until we got our sh** together.
Now I'll admit. All I focused on was my prosperity corner. I didn't care about anything else at that time. I followed the suggestions by first cleaning up the space. That corner happened to be the master bedroom closet which was a disorganized disaster. I thoroughly cleaned out and organized the space then added purple (construction paper) in that corner. (Purple is a very powerful prosperity color next to red and gold.)
I went to Michael's and bought a wooden treasure chest that I painted purple then glued a ton of jewels inside; the book suggests putting things in the prosperity corner that represent wealth and a treasure chest came to mind. (I still have that same treasure chest in my prosperity corner as we speak. It's now 18 years old...cute little thing.)
Next, I bought something called Abundance Oilby Young Living. (Available at Amazon.com.) I put this on a small Buddha that I put in my corner.
And that was it.
I didn't even put in a desk fountain (which I should have done to magnify the results much quicker) at this point.
During that time, my future was pretty bleak and hopeless.
Fast forward one year from that date...I had a successful multi-million-dollar company and was building a custom home with a pool from the ground up.
It happened so fast but yet "naturally gradual," if that makes sense. It wasn't like I bought a lotto ticket and was an overnight millionaire but the opportunities came and came and came some more! Before I knew it, I was back on top!
Now, here's what feng shui WON'T do for you. It won't make the money for you. It won't take any action for you. But it WILL allow opportunities to come through. It will give you ideas that you never had before. It'll send magic your way. It's up to you on how you follow through. It's up to you to put some type of action plan into place because it'll do nothing for you if you won't unglue your ass from the couch.
So...a couple of weeks ago I was starting to feel stuck with a couple of career/business decisions. Plus business seemed a little too slow for my liking. So, I amped up my prosperity corners, starting with torching a smudge stick in my office. And within mere hours, I started seeing the new vision of about how things will be unfolding from this point forward.
At both my home and office, I have a fountain that runs 24/7 in my prosperity corner. I put loads of the Abundance Oil in the fountain over the course of a couple days.
In my prosperity corner at home, I have my master bathroom in my prosperity corner (upstairs). And this sucks. The worst thing you could ever have in your property corner is a toilet. I don't exactly have a toilet but I have a bathtub. When I moved into my house, I painted the tub plug red and I keep it plugged all the time when the tub is not in use. This has helped keep the energy from being sucked down the tubes.
Literally.
But I have 2 sinks that are next to the tub and I keep those open. This apparently was presenting a problem in my prosperity. Not only was business slow but my expenses were increasing for some reason.
So...I bought these rocks. That's right. Medium-sized pebble rocks of 2 colors: white/clear and purple. I put these rocks in each sink, sitting on the stopper in each one. And I added a feng shui mirror to sit on the side of the bathtub to push the energy to the ceiling instead of letting it fall to the bottom of the tub.
That's all I did.
Within 2 weeks my business has quadrupled with NO additional effort on my part.
So, when I tell you this stuff works...it means THIS STUFF WORKS even if it sounds "hokey pokey" or weird.
Trust me. When I first started with this, I felt weird. I felt stupid putting purple construction paper in my cleaned-out closet. I felt lame painting a treasure chest purple and gluing jewels all over it. But I gave it a chance. And it worked.
I recommend that you at least put a small fountain in your prosperity corner in your home and in your office. That corner is located to the far back left of where your front door is. So when standing at your front door, imagine where the far back left corner of your house is. That's your prosperity corner. And if you have 2 stories, you have 2 prosperity corners to contend with.
When I've recommended that students use this technique, they've been shocked at how magical that it works.
But there's another part to this. You can't just sit on your ass and do nothing. You have to implement some type of plan or strategy so that the magic can happen for you.
I have something that will likely blow your mind. CLICK HERE and watch a quick video that I put together for you about this.
Listen up if you don't have a mid-FICO of AT LEAST 720 or higher.
Credit is more important than ever yet many people let their FICO scores slide right down the tubes in the past couple of years because of one reason or another. Time to get control of your FICO with this quick and easy secret I have for you called "The Holiday Blitz."
Last year I gave my students a quick "crash course" on how to use the "holiday blitz" to remove some delinquencies off their credit reports in record speed. The students who used this strategy reported that they increased their personal credit FICOs anywhere from 100 to 200 FICO points last holiday season just by using this little-known simple "holiday blitz" secret.
So, I'm going to up the ante this year because I shot a quick tutorial video for you with complete instructions and downloads. CLICK HERE to watch that tutorial now.
This project will cost you about $70 to do this because you'll be sending these letters these letters Priority (which costs $9.90 x 3 envelopes) and you'll need a current copy of your credit report (which you can get for $39.95 from www.Experian.com). But the upside is that you can increase your FICO score FASTER THAN ANY OTHER TIME IN THE YEAR because of the upcoming holiday season due to the credit bureaus being UNDERSTAFFED this time of year! So, take advantage of this ONCE-A-YEAR "holiday credit blitz" by doing this little project (which, at most, will take you ONE FULL HOUR) between today and Sunday night. (The goal is to get your 3 Priority envelopes out in the mail between TOMORROW and NO LATER THAN MONDAY before the post office closes that day.)
Okay, so here are your EXACT instructions:
Step 1: Go to www.Experian.com to get all 3 of your credit reports and FICO scores. This will cost you about $39.95. Don't be cheap. Pay the money. Your entire credit future hangs on doing this project RIGHT the first time out.
Step 2: Print out the file (and also save a PDF copy in your computer) and take a highlighter marker for all the "adverse" items you'd like to dispute with the credit bureaus. (Usually these "adverse" items are listed first in your credit report.)
Step 3: Download my free letters (by CLICKING HERE) and use them as templates for the 3 credit bureaus. You will be creating a letter FOR EACH CREDIT BUREAU SEPARATELY. VERY IMPORTANT: While it's tempting to dispute online, DO NOT SUBMIT DISPUTES ONLINE. This will BACKFIRE on you. Take the time to fill in the letter templates that you downloaded from my website and MAIL OUT THE LETTERS in USPS Priority envelopes.
Step 4: Input each adverse account on your letter templates for each credit bureau. Since most of the information will be duplicate from one report to the other, I recommend creating one letter to include each disputed account and then simply change the credit bureau name and address at the top of the page for each subsequent bureau letter. This will save you loads of time. Be sure to SAVE YOUR LETTER so you can repeat this process in 30 days if needed.
Step 5: Print out each letter. Make 3 copies of your valid driver's license or passport. Make 3 copies of at least 2 utility bills showing your name and your current address. If you moved within the past 2 years, be sure to include your prior address at the very bottom of your credit bureau letters. Each envelope should contain the following: 1 Letter, 1 Driver's License (or Passport) Copy, and 2 RECENT Utility Bill Copies (showing your name and current address). This will disallow the bureaus from playing games with you to buy time by saying something like, "We don't believe this is a legit dispute." Or, "Prove your identity," and giving them another 30 days to put off the process. You can't afford to be dickering around like this with them. And since they're understaffed during this time of year, it's typical that they try to blow people off with whatever lame response they can muster if you don't have all the paperwork I outlined above in your envelope.
Make sure you send the envelopes to the CORRECT and current addresses on file for each bureau which are as follows:
Experian
PO Box 4500
Allen, TX 75013
Transunion
PO Box 2000
Chester, PA 19016
Equifax
PO Box 740256
Atlanta, GA 30374
Get those suckers out in the mail (remember, use USPS Priority with a SIGNATURE CONFIRMATION) either tomorrow (ideally) or Monday (no later than the close of business).
And what happens next?
Most of the credit bureau staff is either gone on vacation starting Monday. Those who are working aren't mentally "on the job" and are probably going to be pissed off that they're working when they believe they shouldn't be but because they don't have enough seniority to have time off. These are the staffers who will be grumbling because they have to sit in their soul-sucking cubicle in a barren office. So, likely they're playing Candy Crush instead of working just to "stick it to the man." This means that your envelope just rots away on their desk, garnering no attention at all. (I'll explain in a minute why this is actually a good thing!)
In case you don't know how imperative this 30-day period is (starting tomorrow), let's analyze this period.
If you mail your letters NO LATER THAN THE CLOSE OF BUSINESS ON MONDAY, they'll get the letters via USPS Priority (2-day) which means they arrive to the bureaus by Wednesday (the day BEFORE Thanksgiving). This is when the clock for you starts ticking on the 30-day time frame in which they are legally required to complete your investigations on your claimed disputes. Thirty days from that day (that your envelope arrives) is going to be right after Christmas. And nobody is there between Christmas and New Years either. In fact, during most of this next 30-day period, many of the credit bureau (and creditors including collection agencies, law offices handling collections, etc.) are taking loads of time off too.
TAKE FULL ADVANTAGE OF THIS ONCE-A-YEAR "CREDIT BLITZ" BECAUSE THIS HAPPENS ONLY ONE TIME PER YEAR!!
Let me walk you through what happens when you file a dispute with the credit bureau. They receive your letter and have 30 days to investigate your dispute. During this investigation, they will send a letter to the creditors you are disputing and require that they send the appropriate documentation required to substantiate that the account(s) you are disputing is yours.
Except that during the "holiday blitz," many of these employees working for these companies aren't around, they're taking extra time off, and when they actually are working, their minds are elsewhere such as thinking about shopping, cooking, partying, etc.
And this is where your advantage comes in. If there is no response (or a late response) from any of these creditors or collection agencies, the delinquent account falls off your credit report altogether as if it never existed in the first place.
You see, your envelope that was rotting on somebody's desk will be picked up by a more experienced credit bureau employee when he/she comes back from the Thanksgiving vacation. They'll be irritated that Lazy Jane didn't do the work (because she was too busy playing Candy Crush, remember), leaving the just-returning-from-vacay responsible staffer with a wheelbarrow full of credit dispute letters that MUST be done before the 30-day deadline...which is now already a full week in. So, this staffer has to work quick to catch up on the work, doing everything in her power to just get them done...usually deleting and updating a bunch of stuff (in your favor) just to get the work completed. (IMPORTANT: This is ALSO the time where they'll send out boilerplate "form" letters to people who did not include their driver's license or passport copy with 2 utility bills with the whole... "We're putting your investigations on hold until you prove your identity" shtick. This is why you MUST include a VALID copy of your driver's license or passport with 2 recent utility bills showing your name and current address so this DOESN'T happen to you!)
Within the past couple of years, because of major hacking breaches of security with the bureaus and among major creditors like Capital One, the credit bureaus were blasted with so many disputes in recent years so they started using slick tactics to "buy time" in order to put off the 30-day time line. They would do things like sending letters back stating that they didn't believe the letter was a "valid claim" or that they needed "proof" of your identity such as a driver's license and utility bill. (This is why you are REQUIRED to include these things with your dispute letters.)
So, let me reiterate what you'll be doing, for maximum clarity, because I won't be able to respond back to you in time if you send me an email for clarification (only if you want to take advantage of this "holiday blitz" because you don't have a mid-FICO of AT LEAST 720 or above). You're going to download these letters that are in the Microsoft Word document format. There is one for each of the bureaus including their respective addresses at the top of each letter. (Double check to make sure the address is the same as what I have above. What I have above are the MOST RECENT dispute addresses. Use those addresses.)
Next, get a copy of your credit report. If you received one recently (within the past 45 days or so) you can use that one. Otherwise, go to www.experian.com and download a new copy. Yes, it'll cost you $40. So what? You can also try some free services like www.creditkarma.com. You really don't need your FICO. You just need your delinquent or "negative/adverse" accounts.
Next, fill out each letter. Include your full name, current residential address, and your prior address if you've moved in the past 2 years. Include your Social Security Number and your date of birth.
The letters I've given you only has a section for one single disputed account. Copy the entire dispute section and keep pasting it underneath one right after the other for each account you will dispute. Put in the name of the creditor, the partial account number as shown on the credit report, and the dollar amount listed.
Here's a hot tip: Collection agency accounts (including those from a law office) will come off easier during this time than those from banks or very large lenders.
Print off your letters, SIGN the letter with a wet signature (use blue ink, if possible) then include a copy of your driver's license AND a utility bill of a major utility like the electric company or water company. Make sure the service address on the bill MATCHES the address where you currently reside. This will give them no excuse to kick out your dispute to buy themselves time.
Go to the post office and send via USPS Priority with a signature confirmation. You'll have tracking information for each one. And each bureau will receive this package no later than the Wednesday before Thanksgiving. This is when the 30-day clock will start.
Then, REPEAT THE PROCESS AGAIN on December 27th. You'll want your next set of 3 letters going out ON December 27th (even if you didn't receive a response back yet from the credit bureaus). You want those next set of disputes hitting their desks RIGHT BEFORE THE NEW YEAR. This second round won't be as effective but...if, say, 30% of your disputed items were positively updated or completely removed for you during the Thanksgiving Credit Blitz, then a second round can get, say, another 15% positively updated or completely removed, giving you some MAJOR positive progress when it comes to cleaning up your credit and boosting your overall FICO score.
By following these instructions, you will make the greatest impact on boosting your personal FICO during this time over any other time of the year because of these holidays that create "stumbling blocks" for the bureaus and creditors to respond in time.
Finally, I should add one more valuable tidbit of information if you want to dispute "inquiries": Experian is the only bureau that will allow you to dispute your "hard" inquiries. So, on your Experian letter, you can mention that you are also disputing the following inquiries then list the name of the company that put the inquiry on your credit and the date of the inquiry. Doing this alone can boost your score 10 to 20 points alone with Experian. (The other bureaus won't remove hard inquiries but sometimes I ask them too anyway because you never know when they may change their policies.)

Mind-Blowing Secret #2: If you want to make $200,000 or more in the next year doing a pretty easy "job" with our company, CLICK HERE and apply for it. It's easy, highly profitable, but it's NOT for everyone. (I'm only working with a dozen students on this one and that's a HARD cap.) CLICK HERE to check it out now.
Listen, things in the economy are getting dicey...and fast! If you don't line up good credit (under "Mind-Blowing Secret #1") AND a hot opportunity for you to make an easy and steady $200,000+ per year (under "Mind-Blowing Secret #2) then you're going to have a hell of a time treading water in 2023.
Last night I had to run to the grocery store to get a loaf of bread, milk, eggs, and a few other things. I find it to be highly odd and rather unbelievable that people who are in the business of doing a menial simple task (that would take 5 minutes worth of training TOTAL) can actually screw something up so badly.
Long story short, the milk ended up on the top of the bread in the bag, smashing it into something that resembled a wet pita. Not even the birds would have any use in bread that's smashed and doughy (because of the sweat from the milk). And a few of my eggs broke, as the lame-oid who bagged my groceries apparently decided that throwing them into the bag sideways was the way to go.
Again, we're talking about a job that requires MAYBE 5 minutes in training for the entire life of the position. Ten minutes in training for those who are especially dense and slow. And even then, my experience with grocery baggers these days are somewhat in the range of around 1/3 of them who can actually bag the items correctly.
I shutter at the prospect that any of these people may inadvertently slip into a position such as being a brain surgeon or air traffic controller.
So we always circle back to the question: Where did all the common sense go? I think by the time you're in kindergarten, you'd have an idea that it's not a particularly smart idea to put a bowling ball on top of a sack of potato chips so...what happens to that common sense afterwards?
I have a theory. Of course, this is ONLY a theory. But I'm noticing that this lacking of common sense tends to pull more toward the Millennial crowd. Gen X seems to have been the last reliable and innovative generation and then it rapidly went downhill from that point on.
During one of my recent business trips, I started watching this movie called Idiocracy (2006) with Luke Wilson. It's basically about a Pentagon experiment that had gone wrong and left this "average intelligence" guy shoved into the future via a time machine. There (500 years from now) he discovers that he is, in fact, highly intelligent since the average intelligence of the average American had slipped well below even where most mentally challenged people are now on the IQ scale. While this was a comedy, I couldn't help but to see the truth in how this future could be our possibility...but in much less than 500 years.
Try about 50 years.
I'm not one to place a myriad of blame on any specific source of why I think people are mentally going down the tubes like this. I figure there has to be many factors involved including these possibilities:
1) The EASY button mentality. Kids these days seem to think that anything and everything is merely a click away. Any physical exertion beyond the point of a computer mouse, video game controller, or swipe of an iPad means that they simply have no interest in doing it. Plus...what's the worst that can happen when you "die"? I think you just hit "respawn" or "restart" and everything starts from scratch. There are no consequences to any actions with the EASY and RESTART buttons involved. There is also no need to get off their asses at all since everything is at their fingertips. I believe that all this iPad/video game/computer activity numbs the brain more than we think.
2) Skewed and media hype coupled with being barraged with internet and media disinformation. Did you know that nobody in Europe even knows who the hell the Kardashians are? Yet Yahoo! "News" jumps on every little thing those useless people do. And this whole deal with Meghan Markel and Prince Harry every time we turn around? What the f***? (Need I say more??) Isn't there anything ELSE in the news to talk about? By the way, most of these blog online news stories are churned out as fast as possible by "writers" who barely graduated college, have absolutely no life experience, and base their "research" on the rest of the bogus blogger crap they find online, thus giving out even more misinformation with each "news article" that they write. Add this to just adding fuel to the fire by purposely omitting essential details to a story and adding a writer's "opinion" and this is where things can get dangerous for malleable minds reading any given article. Unfortunately, our kids (and many others, believe it or not) who don't have the basic common sense mechanism in their brains needed to sniff out bullsh** versus reality will believe anything and everything they read. Sad really. It's almost better to know nothing at all than have a load of baseless useless nonsense wasting valuable space within your brain cells.
3) A global attack on our personal health. This can include all the clouds of gas that the U.S. Airforce is generously spraying in the sky on a daily basis along with the chemicals they put in the water because it's "good" for us (including the use of fluoride which is actually NOT good for us ATALL). These are known as "chem trails." Look up in the sky once in awhile and when you see a giant tic-tac-toe grid, that's a chem trail. (We see them ALL the time in California.) And if you're a meat eater (including consuming dead cows, pigs, and birds), you're getting it even worse with the vast collection of hormones and pesticides that come in your meat, all complimentary of course. This is why girls are developing at a much earlier age. This is why cancer is becoming rampant and uncontrollable, happening in larger numbers than ever before. Did you ever think that maybe it's from all the crap in the air, all the hormones from our food...and now from GMOs?? All of this, of course, affects our brain function and whether we can think clearly...or at all. And don't even get me started on the "scam-demic" and how much health damage Covid did to all of us. (I still have brain fog and severe lethargy from when I got Omicron back in January.)
And if you have ANY of the disadvantages I've outlined in #1 and/or #2 then you're definitely going to see an impact on your thinking process. In fact, if you are guilty of #1 and #2 then I'm fairly certain that you didn't even read down this far, as I would have lost you in the first sentence of this email.
You can't fix stupid but you can at least TRY to do something about it. First, start with your health. Cut your meat consumption. Drastically, if possible. Add organic vegetable juice each day, mostly with greens. Clean up your diet as much as you can. Eat a lot of organic fruits and veggies. Get on a regular exercise program. Clean out your colon with a 3-day cleanse. Do what YOU can.
No, you can't change everything but this is NOT an "all or nothing" type of deal. You can't breathe different air unless you plan on carrying an oxygen tank on your back at all hours of the day and night. You're not going to avoid every hormone or pesticide in your food. But you CAN cut some of the damage down by a significant percentage of consuming this junk and this alone will make a big impact.
Then you'll start to THINK CLEARER. Once you think clearer, you can start rising above the rest of the dummies that grace this planet and realize success like you've never imagined.
I have another theory and that is this: Do only 7% better and you'll be happier, healthier, and wealthier than you've ever dreamed of!
And doing 7% better only means doing better than what you are doing now. It really has nothing to do with what everybody else is doing out there because, well...who really cares what everyone else is doing? Right?
This means getting healthier, educating yourself, create meaningful goals for yourself in all areas of your life, generate a doable action plan to achieve those goals and, most importantly, get off your ass and start working the plan. Don't let the noise and chatter of what everyone else is doing, thinking, and talking about become a distraction because, as we've established, they're mostly dopes anyway.
It also means rolling up your sleeves and doing things that other people are just too lazy to do. And I have a way you can do that. It can be a real game-changer for you for 2023. CLICK HERE and see what I'm talking about.
And by the way, stop watching the news. Stop reading stupid Yahoo! News articles, especially the comments section. They're written by a bunch of uneducated dummies who don't have a job (or don't excel at one they have). Focus on yourself and what you need to do to reach your goals. That's all you have to do.
And, finally, realize that there isn't an EASY button. Be willing to roll up your sleeves and do what it takes to achieve whatever you want in life. If you're willing to do that then...the world is your oyster.
See you at the top!

P.S. I did a quick "crash course" training on my famous "Holiday Blitz" where you can increase your personal FICO by 100 to 200 or more points during this holiday season. Usually I wait until the week before Thanksgiving to start giving you guys and gals tips about how to remove a lot of adverse and negative marks on your credit but...I'm getting a head start by a week to give you extra time to prepare for this annual "Holiday Blitz" secret strategy.

Why am I talking about 2023 already when we haven't even hit the holidays yet?
A couple of reasons:
1) Our economy is in "crisis mode" right now and most fools don't even know it yet,
And...
2) I predict that in the first quarter of 2023, we'll be seeing the start of a 2008-eque economy unfold quickly.
Yes, once the "holiday hang-over" is over, the I forecast that the credit bubble (you know...all those credit cards people were living on for the past two years of the pandemic?) will officially explode in everyone's faces.
And there will be A LOT of people scrambling around for money.
But that won't be you because here's what I have for you...
