The Dean of Easy Street

What Do You Drive?

admin — Sat, 24 Nov 2007 15:44:30 +0000

If you’ve watched much TV recently you’ve probably seen the new Cadillac ads. The one’s that say we could tell you about all the cool features we’ve got, but the real question is:

When you turn your car on, does it return the favor?

Makes you seriously question the car you are driving, doesn’t it?

I’ve never been a big Cadillac fan. I don’t dislike them. Just never was attracted to them, and now all I want to do is go test drive that new CTS. That’s a dang good ad in my book.

But a much bigger question than, “What Do You Drive?” is:

What’s Driving You? In other words,

1). What do you feel really passionate about?

2). What gets you fired up and turns you on?

3). What makes you feel especially good inside?

Till you answer questions like that, success will probably elude you. Give it some thought for now. Next time I’ll start helping you unearth your passions and core desires.

P.S. One thing that helps me a lot is to do “The Complete Breath” 4 or 5 times to calm my mind and relax my body before asking myself important questions like that.

Thank you, and God bless.

Are you afraid of what people think?

Does a fear of criticism paralyze you?

And you thought peer pressure would end with high school. Nope.

If you study highly successful people in any field though you’re going to find many of them do things others would consider weird, strange, or ‘out there’.

I’ve heard of a highly successful writer who - like Joshua marching around Jericho - marches around his desk with great fanfare seven times before sitting down to write.

Why? So when he finally sits in his favorite chair he can write with the confidence of a conquering hero. Strange? Maybe, but it works.

And who would have thought Albert Einstein would place more value on imagination and fantasy than on rational thought? But in his own words:

“When I examine myself and my methods of thought, I come to the conclusion that the gift of fantasy has meant more to me than any talent for abstract, positive thinking.”

“Imagination is more important than knowledge”

What these rituals and routines do is help people access more of their own internal mind power. That in turn gives them a creative and competitive edge over others in their field.

There is no doubt mind and emotions affect our bodies, and vice versa. There’s just too much evidence on that for anybody to deny. We don’t know all the details, but for centuries men have believed breathing was one of the best ways to merge the power of mind and body and get into these altered states which are more enpowering.

That’s one reason I’m excited to introduce you an expert on movement and breathing, Karen Van Ness. See what this holder of several black belts, athlete, and student of Qi Gong and Yoga can do for your body and mind with advanced level breathing techniques today at:

P.S. If you are a newbie at breathing exercises don’t worry about it. Your secret is safe with me, but just between us my entry level ebook, “The Miracle of the Complete Breath” will probably do you more good than Karen’s advanced stuff. Walk before you run today over at:

Has Anybody Here Seen Elmer Mcallister?

Have you heard about the high school basketball coach who in the midst of a difficult season stood up before his team and said …

“Did Michael Jordan ever quit?” … “No!”

“Did Lance Armstrong ever quit? … “No!”

“Did Muhammad Ali ever quit? …”No!”

“Did Elmer McAllister ever quit?” …

There was a long silence. Finally one player summoned enough boldness to speak up and ask,

“Coach, who is Elmer McAllister? We’ve never heard of him.

”The coach snapped back, “Of course you never heard of him.

He quit!”

P.S. This blog has evolved out of my work as a basketball shooting coach and reflects my deep interest Inner Game, i.e. mind power, the law of attraction, inspiration, imagination, wealth, abundance, etc.

I’ve learned when you consistently act from inside out there is power available which makes plain old hard work about the worse way to accomplish something. When I talk about Easy Street I’m not talking about being lazy. I’m talking about turning your work into play. You’ll see what I mean as things go on.

Thanks much.
