My Weekend With Joseph

I recently spent one of the most amazing weekends of my life. I visited London to attend on of Joseph McClendon III’s motivational seminars and WOW, this was a game-changer for me.

For those who aren’t familiar with him, Joseph McClendon has worked closely with Tony Robbins for years and serves as Senior Head Trainer and instructor at Robbins Research’s Mastery University.

Joseph holds numerous certifications in the neuro-sciences and uses his in-depth understanding of the human mind to break through the barrier between our conscious and subconscious minds.

Anyone trying to use the law of attraction has experienced the heavy roadblocks that exist deep within our subconscious minds. These blockages can sabotage all of our efforts towards manifesting success and abundance in our lives.

But what if there were a magic switch, an access point where we could easily and painlessly tap into our subconscious and replace all the negativity there with positive and inspiring truths? How much faster would we get to where we want to be if we could simply re-program our subconscious minds in an instant?

This is exactly what Joseph teaches and let me tell you…it is nothing short of miraculous. Using the techniques that I learned over my weekend with Joseph I can now instantly transform my mindset any time I want.

Now let me say one quick thing, I am not an affiliate for Joseph McClendon III (although I’d be thrilled to be one!) and I’m not writing this to you in an attempt to sell you on anything.

I only wanted to share with you the pathway to some of the most powerful tools and techniques I’ve come across in my years of entrepreneurship. If you get the chance, please don’t miss out on attending one of these amazing experiences. Then come back and share what you discovered with the rest of us. I can’t wait to hear from you!

“The amount of people that fail is directly proportionate to the amount of people that give up.”

Before It Was Real Estate, Before It Was Dot Com, It Was Tulips…?

That’s right. One of the first truly devastating economic bubbles was the tulip bubble during the early 17th century. While not on a global scale like the bubble bursts we have been witnessing today, this story brings up an interesting question whether simple irrationality is to blame for the phenomenon of economic bubbles.

In 1593, tulips were introduced to the Dutch from Turkey. These flowers had colors more vibrant and beautiful than any flower seen before and the Dutch immediately prized them and began cultivating them on a large scale.

At one point, the tulips became infected with a non-fatal virus. Instead of harming the plant, the virus simply left them altered leaving “flames” of colors on the petals.

These altered tulips, rare in nature, became increasingly valuable. That is to say, people assumed they were becoming more valuable and became willing to spend more money on them.

One could almost call what ensued a “buying frenzy.” This is the initiation of the bubble, the stage has been set, and now poorly-made assumptions and irrational decision making fuel the bubble’s inflation. Just like a hot-air balloon.

The prices of some tulips rose twenty times in a period of just one month. In 1624, a dealer in Amsterdam was offered the equivalent of a wealthy merchant’s annual salary for ONE tulip bulb. Obviously these prices could not sustain themselves.

Soon, the bubble burst as they all do and lives were devastated. Fortunes were lost in a matter of days. Men were left holding their heads in their hands wondering how they could have been so stupid.

The lesson here is to avoid getting swept up with the crowds. Keep a steady eye on what’s going on in the world and our economy. Trust your gut when something seems too good to be true.

And invest in the things that never lose their value. Like silver and gold. (I cannot say this often enough.)
