You should probably consider rejecting the bulk of what this world offers in order to make any personal progress. Or you can simply look at it from the idea of seeing things in a different light.

1. Newsletter December 2011
Learning to Ignore - and Improving Your
Freedom
And again, welcome to all our new subscribers!
I sincerely hop you all have enjoyed your Thanksgiving and the
gratitude you were able to manifest - which of course brings many
more good things toward you. And now we can look forward to
one of the highest abilities we have - that of giving gifts open-
handledly to others.
First, lets get our freebie out to you - something we provide you
every month: To make these even more accessible to you, they are
now being uploaded to either Scribd or Slideshare for easier
access.
This month's special: a specially edited magazine article from
Napoleon Hill entitled, "The Magic Ladder to Success". It was
written after his "Law of Success" and before his "Think and Grow
Rich" were published. And I've embedded this one at the bottom of
this newsletter.
Again, I've uploaded this to Slideshare so you can download it easier and even share it with others. And
if you check down at the bottom of this month's newsletter, I've embedded that file so you can read it
here and/or download it as well.
----
We'll only be talking about spiritual training and online business in this newsletter, as that is what the
majority of you have signed up for - and online business allows you a way to test what you've learning
in your spiritual studies, while to succeed in business you will need to have a thorough grounding in
the spiritual. Just the way it is.
Now, you may just have had some thoughts which encourage you to reject what I just said - and this is
good for you. Reject any and everything I say - simply test anything and everything you encounter for
yourself to see it works for you. And that is the theme of this month's newsletter - that you really need
to reject or ignore the bulk of what goes on on this planet in order to make real personal progress.
Again, this newsletter is linked here, along with this month's complimentary study material.
Good Hunting!

2. Spiritual Improvement
Not a lot of posts this month, since I've been busy writing for the National Novel Writing Month,
which occurs every November. Of course, I've been thinking and going along, since the novel is a basis
for upcoming illustrated books and cartoons. And as I mentioned last month, this is the solution for
marketing these fairly ethereal concepts out to this planet.
I will give you some collections of older works I've done - mostly from the early 90's, but some more
recent:
County Fair Caricatures
Shadows
End of the Mexico Goat
Kid Who Found Better
Did You Really Mean to Say
Colonel Webpreads Adventures
And of course, these are more for
entertainment than the heavy personal
improvement stuff. But I imagine you can
find some nuggets of truth popping up here
and there through them. Most of this work
was done before "Go Thunk Yourself" was
researched, so they're lightweight - perfect
for getting some distraction.
You may find that "entertainment" and
"distraction" is just another way to look at
things, to improve yourself - that when you
relax and enjoy life, another message or
meaning will come to you that may open
doors or explain a problem or situation you
may have.
My upcoming and current work is
developing just down that line of humor.
For the more I study how to market these
ideas of actually getting people to restore
their own freedom, the more I see that
humor and stories of cartoon animals will
be a much more effective approach. Not as
easy to reject, and people who are looking
will find something.
This does tend to lead us to the point of discussion for this month.
You should probably consider rejecting the bulk of what this world offers in order to make any
personal progress. Or you can simply look at it from the idea of seeing things in a different light.
When I was in the middle of getting scammed, my education lead me to a guess that 97% of the people
who were applying for this same scam-program I had paid my money for. And my coach was
astonished, since this was the actual number of their success rate. Later, after he left that scam

3. organization, he told me it was much worse:
• 3% of the people who started actually completed the program and built their own website.
• 3% of those actually made their money back.
• 3% of those actually were outrageous successes - and were used to make the promo for the
(scam) program.
So you had a 1 in 10,000 chance of actually succeeding at what they were promoting - which is why
the Feds and their own State officials got all over their case and forced them into a different line of
work (they're still scamming, but not as much as before, mostly in different states.)
The point of this is that this is close to your own success rate at improving yourself. But you are in luck
- you probably are already in this elite group if you are reading this.
But it might get worse.
The number of people who actually achieve any useful degree of enlightenment in any given lifetime is
probably closer to 1 or a few out of a million. Meaning it's something like 3% of 3% of 3% of 3% of
3% of everyone out there. (Feel free to check the math on this.)
And it won't be any of those people who were demonstrating, calling themselves the "99%". Logically,
1) there weren't enough of them for such an occurance to be statistically probable, and 2) they weren't
interested in improving themselves, just mostly complaining about others. (And we all know that
pointing the blame at someone else has three fingers pointing back at you.)
It's the personally creative people who actually improve their life enough to achieve what is called
"enlightenment", among other things.
It's more that the scene you should be working at is consciously testing every datum you run across (or
are told about) to see if it will help youto acquire your own personal freedom - or whatever you are
trying to achieve or acquire in your life. While any individual datum you get from the news or
entertainment sources you watch or follow might be useful to some, you can bet that the bulk of it is
useless. (Watch the news tonight and see for yourself.)
This same percentile-split applies to the information you get: 3% may be helpful, .09 percent is
probably useful, and .0027 percent will be incredibly valuable and instantly life-changing. You could
probably improve your chances of finding something very useful if you simply quit reading, watching,
or listening to anything which wasn't already designed to be valuable for self-improvement.
So you may find that you want to eliminate out of your life all these things which are simply wasting
your time. Concentrate instead on just those things which may and can help you find your own path to
enlightenment/satori/cosmic consciousness or simply being able to feel good every day.
In doing this, you may find that a great deal of what passes for culture in our modern societies are
really wasted motion for you personally. You may also figure that if you quit doing or participating in
these things, that your life would be better. (Like the patient said to the doctor, "Doc, it hurts when I do
this." and the doctor replied, "Well, quit doing that!")
An idea you may want to use (or not) to improve your world. Like everything, it takes faith in yourself
and discipline to get these out of your life. But you can also simply not turn on the TV at night, and
quit reading the newspaper. Pick up a good self-help or inspirational book or movie instead. Start
filling your time with these other datums and you may find your life being more inspired, that what you

4. start seeing in the world around you is more helpful.
Just an idea for you to try.
A common technique to start with
The people I've been conversing with lately by
e-mail have had a common basic situation and
got the same advice from me.
In all cases, they were simply starting out with a
ton of mental blow-back of how "I don't know
where to start" or "I keep feeling I can't do this"
or "I keep thinking how I'm not going to
succeed."
And this is simply all those bad mental habits
you've accumulated over the years which are
designed to keep you in that state. Period.
And releasing simply takes care of these. Even if
you don't feel like you are releasing, it's simply
that more stuff is pushing in to make you think
you can't or won't get any progress with this
material. Just bad mental habits, programs which
keep your mind filled with negative and self-
defeating thoughts. The more you listen to these thoughts and take them seriously, the more they keep
you down.
The trick is to start setting up new habits. You replace the old ones with the new ones.
This is actually a discipline which underlies any self-improvement. It's borrowed from Charles F.
Haanel's "Master Key System", but is also found in ancient Buddhist training.
You learn to simply sit and listen to the world around you without moving or interacting with it. Just be
there.
Do this every day for 30 days. Sit in the same place at the same time for 15 minutes per day - just sit
there and listen to the world around you. Don't participate in it, don't think about it, just be there. Most
people can't do it right off, but anyone can if they practice. Once you can simply be there for 15
minutes, then you can start releasing the stuff which is coming in that you don't like. And that doesn't
mean getting into what it means or how it came to be, it's just letting go. Very simple, very direct.
The point is to learn to release daily for a certain amount of time, but to do that you have to learn how
to sit still and just be there first.
So that's the technique you can start with.

5. Economics
Before I start in no this, have another download - this is an old
excerpt I distilled from one of Earl Prevette's books: "The Power
of Creative Selling" - in this section he tells you how the Law of
Attraction works to get more and better sales.
Now, to discuss an underlying path to success.
There's a lot of people out there trying to sell you stuff which
they claim will make you successful. Most of it (at least 97%, if
not 99.9973%) is useless waste of your energy.
Your success, as it always has been, is due to what you do with
what you encounter along the way. (I got all my money back
from a big scam I was involved in, and did the research to write
a couple of books which enabled others to get theirs back as
well. Not all people who this scam joint tried to fleece did as
well. It certainly threw off their estimated profit margins.)
Now I've resisted this, but there are certain affiliate programs
which I recommend, but haven't been really pushing. And I
subscribe to the mail lists of all the programs I've found effective. Some of these are very active, and
are very supportive of people who support them. They send out regular emails (at least once a month)
and are quite good offers.
But I've resisted forwarding them, as this type of stuff can get pretty lame, real quick (just what you
needed in your email in-box). The problem is that many people aren't receptive to this when they first
hear about it. Or the offer isn't made that particularly appeals to them.
Unfortunately, this means I haven't forwarded some very good offers to you. So unwittingly, I've kept
you from your own progress - perhaps.
You won't know until I start forwarding these offers to you.
These are the programs which routinely send good information either about their products or how to
use them to improve your life:
• Millionaire Mind Intensive - techniques on how to get rich
• Jurisdictionary - legal self help
• SiteBuildIt! - online business web site building
Not surprisingly, these are all under the heading of how to help you build and defend your own online
business to get the success you've always wanted.
I'd like to start forwarding these emails to you, so that you can take advantage of these many limited
offers. And if I find some more, I'll send them along.
Again, I only recommend those products which I personally have gone through and gotten gains from.
Sign up here, and they'll start coming to you. This is a pilot program - if enough people want this, then
I'll expand it so everyone can get these benefits. But you'll be able to sign out of these special offers at

6. any time, without having to quit any particular email course you are currently taking.
The point is to enable you to improve your life beyond any reality which may be currently limiting you.
Your choice, as usual.
Thanks for reading.
Here's hoping your days are filled with success and joy...

8. Thrivelearning Guide
Find ways how to improve your life, run a
successful online business, get your freedom
back.
Thrivelearning System - A Guide
I've searched over the Internet for really workable programs for more than a couple of
decades. The main criteria was that they had to work and they had to help people
actually improve their lives. The goal is that people are enabled to get their abundance
which is already native.
People don't know how simple it is to have a peaceful, free life. They don't know that
starting an online business does have a learning curve, but when you find the right
mentor and the right partners, it can be really simple and successful.
So these programs each individually work. But the real power is that they integrate into
a powerful system that is more effective than the single parts.
There are two approaches to this - Spiritual and Business
Spiritual: You should be able to have all the freedom, peace, and abundance
you could ever want.
Business: You can and should know how to leverage the Internet to make
your own online success.
Like many, I was caught up in the “get rich quick” “how to make money online”
schemes that are very often pushed with Internet Marketing.
And it took me a long time (over a year) to learn enough to earn my money back out
of the scheme I bought into. (No, I had to attend “Hard Luck U” and sweat it out with a
keyboard and Google searches - it wasn’t found in the “training” I bought.) And that
company has improved considerably since that time - it was lessons all around, the way
I saw it.
But since then, I’ve really discovered how to thrive - by discovering and testing the
exact techniques of self-help and spiritual training which will attract any amount of
money or abundance you want. No “institute” required, no expensive ”schooling” or
“coaching” - learn at your own pace, from your own home.

9. Now I am starting to regularly earn money working at home, mostly from online
affiliate sales and my own books . It’s not hard to learn, if you want to invest your time
(and a little cash here and there.) But you only get out what you invest of your self…
Here’s the programs I found that actually work:
Spiritual
1. Find your inner peace - Use Release Technique
2. Learn how to remain calm under stress - Use Silva Life System
3. Thrive financially with your Millionaire Mindset - Learn from T. Harv Eker
4. Simply Wake Up and Live! - Dorothea Brande's classic.
5. Get a library of proven, workable materials - Spiritual Training Materials
Business
1. Do market research for products which can factually earn you online income -
Chris Malta's Worldwide Brands
2. Master social network marketing - Charles Heflin’s Synnd
3. Get a site builder and web host with decades of experience -Ken Evoy's Site Build
It!
4. Find the simplicities to protecting yourself legally – Dr. Frederick Graves'
Jurisdictionary
5. Get and stay scam free from here on out - Get Scam Free (book and online
course)
Release Technique
Release Technique is simply learning to actually look at what is
happening around you and letting go of what you don't want. Too
easy, actually. Some people have to know more about such a
technique before they can really put it to use in their lives. Larry
Crane used it to save his life. He was already a millionaire - even
on the cover of Time - but found he wanted to commit suicide
because of his own inner stress. He met a guy named Lester

10. Levenson, who taught him to release the inner programs which caused that. Larry
changed his life – and has been teaching and promoting this course ever since.
Silva Life System
Laura found herself in trouble. Her health was failing, she
couldn't keep a job, she was desperately "in love" with someone
who only took advantage of her. Then she rediscovered for
herself the system of active meditation she had been involved
with since childhood, literally growing up around it. Once she put
this to use in her own life, she became more and more successful
as she applied it. Now happily married with several children, she has devoted her life to
continuing her father's proven program of active meditation. More people than ever have
found how easy it is to meditate through Jose and Laura Silvas' works. There are
reportedly millions internationally who are using Silva materials to gain calm,
successful lives. You can, too.
Millionaire Mind Intensive
The key point is that you have to re-learn all you've learned up to
this point about money. What he starts out to begin with is to tell
you, “Don’t believe anything I say, but try these ideas out in your
own life - and trust these ideas you are trying.”How Eker gets
you to re-train your millionaires mind isn't all that new. But he
took up the study of millionaire and rich-people psychology in
earnest so solve his own inability to make and hold onto money.
While he made (and lost) millions early in his life, it was his own
studies into how people did this which made him an international success. Now he
spends his time only in helping others to adjust their own Millionaire Mindset
Wake Up and Live
I was introduced to it by Earl Nightingale (of "Our Changing
World" fame). It was in his "Strangest Secret" recording where
he introduced her now famous credo:
"Act as though it were impossible to fail."
And she explains how she got to that point in this book. The first
section is an autobiography of sorts, explaining the gist of her
discovered philosophy of life - and how that credo lead her straight to an amazing career
after a rather mundane existence prior. Newly republished in an easy-to-read format, this
book is an essential classic for anyone's library.

11. Spiritual Training Materials
For anyone to really make their way through life, they have to
find and follow mentors. With our modern Internet Age, you no
longer have to take time out and travel to distant lands in order to
sit at the feet of a Master and absorb their knowledge. Even the
long-passed can reveal their secrets from their book sand
materials. I've assembled a short list of books which have been
proved time and again to hold the secrets to all health,wealth,
success, and relationships. The path is there - you have only to
walk it. Build your library today!
Web Site Builder
Site Build It! is the only product that takes the time to prepare
you to build a profitable business, before you jump into building
your site. For the beginner, your learning curve will be shorter
and you’ll bypass any show-stopping errors. For those
experienced in site-building, SBI! deepens your level of
understanding. No matter who you are, you are guided all the
way until you succeed. This approach symbolizes SBI!’s steady-
and-sure approach. It’s definitely not GRQ (Get Rich Quick) and
keeps you from getting distracted by false promises or dead-end tools and strategies that
end up costing more money. Experienced users will appreciate avoiding time-wasters
that don't help you succeed. Think of it as a simple, direct, hype-free path that leads to
success. Check it out for yourself.
Profitable Market Research
The reason Chris started WWB is just because he knew how
profitable it was to sell for others - but ran into the same shady
operators so many of us do. He sat out building a company which
did the homework for you - so you only need login to their single
interface where they've already predigested the product
discovery, keyword research, and verified the drop-shippers as
legit. No middlemen, no scammers. Just you, your hard work, and your filling bank
account. Not for the faint at heart - this is only for those serious about doing the
homework necessary to find salable, profitable products to sell.

12. Social Network Marketing
Once you have a product and a website, you need to promote it.
Charles Heflin has been marketing at least as long as the World
Wide Web has existed. And he formed Social Media Science just
to study the social media phenomenon. Per their website: "Social
Media Science is dedicated to the science of online social media
as it applies to gaining visibility for you ronline or offline business. We are dedicated to
educating the business community through a robust educational system as well as
providing cutting edge software tools to make marketing your business easier, more
effective and measurable. See what sets us apart." It's only here where you learn how to
really market online.
Get a Winning Lawyer - Defend Your Company
Dr. Frederick Graves is a lawyer who has taken on the formidable
task of educating people how to figure out what the hell is going
on. But it's not all that complicated. For any business, if you
understand the legal system, you can avoid situations which
would lead you into any unnecessary involvement in the courts.
Technically, you learn enough to use the laws to do what they are
supposed to - protect against inequality and bullying behavior.
The point is that when you do need to get a lawyer, you can also ensure that he's doing
what you're paying him for. With all else you need to follow in business, you don't also
need the excess expense which legal costs can bring.
FTC Disclaimer
Self-help and Spiritual Training are highly personal. You get out only what you put into
them. There are no "typical results." None of the above should be considered as a
“business opportunity”. These are personal training programs and materials which you
alone can determine if they assist your own progress or help improve your life.
Caveat Emptor, and all that.
