ear Friend,

Allow me to skip the unnecessary formalities and fluffy build up and right down to brass tacks.

I want to change your life!  I want you to experience a full and abundant life!  I want you to stop spinning your wheels, get off that hamster wheel and start uncovering the opportunity-rich, abundant life you’ve always imagined and truly deserve.

In short, I want you to become a Lifeonaire!

What the heck is a “Lifeonaire”?

We all know what a millionaire is.  While technically it’s someone who owns at least a million dollars, I’d say a better definition for most of us would be that a millionaire is someone who is full of money.

Well a Lifeonaire is sort of like a millionaire, but also different.
A Lifeonaire is full of life! Get it?

Most of us spend our lives just enduring the life we’ve been given.  Tragically few of us actually end up experiencing all that life has to offer.  No matter what your circumstances are right now, your life is rich with untapped potential.  And you can and should tap into that and start enjoying it!

By understanding the Lifeonaire ideas, I’ve learned not to set goals based on other people’s expectations of how I should live my life, but instead how to design my life and pursue the things in life that provide the most fulfillment.  (If that doesn’t “click” yet, don’t worry, it will in a minute)

The truth is, since I became a “Lifeonaire”…

• My business is more profitable than ever.
• I’ve eliminated more than $600,000 in debt (yes, in less than a year…).
• My relationships with friends and family are more prosperous than ever.
• My relationship with God has strengthened tremendously.
• I have more time to “experience life” and focus on the things that mean the most to me.

Why don’t we truly “experience life”?

Quite simply it’s because we’ve been conditioned to believe that we can’t…at least not yet.

We’ve been trained to believe the only way to experience a good life is to first make a lot of money or become a millionaire. And the heart-rending result is that most of us who want more out of life have set off in pursuit of becoming a millionaire, tragically believing that if we can just acquire enough money, then one day we can truly experience a “full life” the way it was meant to be lived.

And in the mean time…through life’s trials and setbacks……we simply……endure.

Here’s the problem with this approach…

It’s that most people have made a happy, satisfied life contingent upon the ability to make a million dollars (or much more).  And if that’s you, you’re in for a major disappointment because one of two things WILL happen…either:

1. We don’t make a million dollars and therefore fail to really experience life, or
2. We make the million dollars only to realize that life is not what we thought it would be. (So then we try to make even more money, because we obviously haven’t made enough!)

Have you ever had some noble, lofty goal in mind – I mean something really big and ambitious – only to find yourself thinking when it’s finally accomplished, “Really? Is this all there is?”

Can we all be really honest for a second?

We’ve all felt this way at one time or another, haven’t we?  We’ve all found ourselves feeling unsatisfied, unfocused, unfulfilled and maybe even unsure of why…

We’ve all imagined how just having “enough money” would finally solve all our problems with time, family, friends or whatever.

This is a bold faced lie!

But here’s an absolute truism: There is no amount of money in the world that will guarantee you a full, abundant life.

In fact, the sad truth is that it’s often those with the most money whose lives are the emptiest and least fulfilling.

Just look at some of our wealthiest pop icons, sports stars and “movers and shakers” in the business world.  Do they really seem to have it all together? REALLY?

But great news!…It doesn’t have to be this way!

Listen, I’m here to tell you that…

• Yes, you can begin experiencing the life you were created for starting today!
• Yes, you can uncover the full, rich and abundant life you’ve been searching for.
• And the best part is…No, you don’t have to have a million dollars – or any amount of money for that matter – in order to make it happen. The truth is you can have it instantaneously once you know how…

Now don’t get me wrong…I like money!  

In fact I’ve worked hard to earn an income that’s well above average.  And honest, I’ve got my sights set on earning even more.  Just like the rest of us, I enjoy money…but not for money’s sake.  My focus isn’t on money…money is just a tool…a means to an end.

I’ve been blessed to have learned a secret few people will ever learn – the reality that living an abundant, fulfilling life has nothing whatsoever to do with my bottom line income, wealth or status. It’s just one component among many.

Now a word of caution…

Warning!  If you are completely satisfied with your life, please stop reading now.

If you’ve got it all together and are already entirely happy with the balance you have in your life in terms of time, family, job, work, play, faith, friends, etc…

…If that’s you, then what we have to offer is not for you!

On the other hand, if you have some areas in your life in which you’d really like to see some dramatic improvement, then keep reading.  This may just be the most important thing you’ve read in a long, long time.

I’m inviting you to be a part of a very special, game-changing experience with us.  I guarantee it’s entirely unlike anything you’ve experienced in the past.  It’s called, “Who Wants to Be a Lifeonaire”, a live learning/training/eye-opening event like none other.

Consider this: We’ve not had one single person attend a Lifeonaire event whose life and views were not drastically changed for the better as a result.

Yes, this is just that powerful. It’s not because we’re so great – it’s because of the paradigm shift that happens when you finally open your eyes to lies you’ve believed so far about what it takes to be fulfilled.

Sadly most of us are running the race hard, but on the wrong track…and don’t even know it!

Has “goal setting” been a big letdown for you too?

What separates those who experience life from those who end up simply enduring it?

Many would say that those who experience life are great at setting goals and achieving them.  And I’ll agree with this to an extent.  At the same time I’ll disagree.  Because the answer is so much more than just setting more or better goals…

There are key components to whether or not a written goal will actually be accomplished.  Many people have goals, write them down, but never achieve the life they so desire.  Every year in January, most people announce a laundry list of new resolutions only to see them fizzle out within a few weeks.

In time, we don’t even want to try because we’ve conditioned ourselves to fail.

Getting Off Life’s Hamster Wheel…

So why is it that few people seem to get everything they ever want out of life, while the rest end running on life’s hamster wheel?

Is it because some people want it more than others?  Maybe some people are just smarter?  Harder working?  Luckier?

NO!

For the vast majority of us, none of these things are really what’s standing between you and the success you’re so longing for.

(In fact, just because you are reading this right now, I’d be willing to bed you have what it takes, you’re already better equipped than the “Average Joe”.  I’ll bet you want success so badly you can taste it!)

Do you really want to know the answer?

OK, here’s the big secret…

…And it’s also in my assessment the biggest difference between those who achieve their dreams and live a fulfilling life and those who struggle and struggle, only to die trying.

It’s a “Lifeonaire Vision”…

Now I realize that not everyone calls it that.  But what I mean is basically is that the person who lives a rich, fulfilling life also has a crystal clear vision of what they want out of life – and it’s not about money…money’s just one component…a means to an end.

These are the people who start with a clear picture of the end in mind, and have established a unique big picture plan as well as specific short term, actionable “waypoints” and goals to get them there.

In its simplest form, this is the Lifeonaire Vision. And armed with it you can set clear goals along with a specific action plan to help you achieve what you really want.  It’s the difference between having good intentions and a specific, step-by-step plan of action.

Let me share a quick story with you.  It’s the story of…

Your “Deal of the Year”…

Imagine this…

Your phone rings (ring).

Someone is calling you up with the deal of the century.  You’ve been waiting for a deal like this all your life.  The details are presented to you and it sounds perfect.  You know you can do this deal, and it’s going to change your life forever.

Before you know it, the person on the other end of the line is begging you to do this deal and you begin to get very excited because you’ve already determined in your own mind that this is something that you’re going to do.  The person on the other end of the line tells you that the only thing you need to do is come to their office to sign some paperwork and the deal is all yours.

So you hang up the phone ready to jump out of your seat with excitement, jump in your car and start driving…to…somewhere…

See the problem?  Before you got off the phone, you failed to find out where his office is located.

You immediately begin to panic!  Here, the deal of a lifetime has been presented to you, you know it will make an enormous impact on the quality of your life, as well as the lives of everyone you know, yet for some strange reason, you’ve just set out to claim your reward with no map.  You think “How could I have done this?”  You literally have no idea of specifically how to get from your house to his office.

Oh well.  At least you know it’s an office that you have to get to.  If you just start driving- let’s say East- surely you’ll recognize it when you come across it… at some point……right?

Are you driving through life without a map?

While I hope the above story makes it obvious, my point is this: Most people live life guided by what they believe to be goals, but turn out to be little more than a vague idea of where they want to go, and no “big picture map” for getting there.

And sadly, without this big picture “vision” map, any goals you set (and maybe accomplish) will lead you…well…who knows where?

Maybe in the right direction, maybe not.  At the very least it will take you much longer to get there than if you’d just planned your entire journey.

Get it?

As a result, most people really struggle to find themselves confused, lost and miserably frustrated.

Just as you’d be pretty crazy to try driving someplace you’ve never been without a good map or driving directions (i.e. a plan), you’re not the smartest tool in the shed when you try to meander your way through life, striving for success without a specific roadmap to getting there.

But here’s what most people just don’t realize…

Whether you realize it or not, you’re following a plan.  The question is not whether or not you’re following a plan…but whose plan are you following?

What I mean is, even if you have a set of directions (i.e. a plan)…who’s directions are they? Are you following your plan or someone else’s?

Most people wake up each morning ready to go…and go…and go.  But in reality they have little-to-no idea where they are really heading or what it takes to really get there.

So haphazardly stumbling their way through life, they end up living out a plan, but not their plan.

Here’s an alarming fact:

If you don’t have a well thought out plan of your own, you’ll soon find yourself living out someone else’s (your father’s, your employer’s, your neighbor’s plan…) whether you realize it or not.

Or said another way…

…Not having your own specific plan is a sure fire way to get unwittingly stuck in someone else’s.

They don’t teach this stuff in school!

In fact, I’d say that most schools condition you to live out someone else’s plan for your life.  It’s like we’re programmed from an early age to live someone else’s dreams for what our lives should look like.

Don’t do it!  Rebel!  You deserve better!

A predictable pattern with successful people…

…is that they take the time to get in touch with who they are and what they truly want out of life.  But since most people don’t know what they really want, for most it ends up just being easier to follow someone else’s idea of what we should be doing.

I’d be willing to bet that most people spent more time last year planning their vacations then they did their lives.

Consider that for a moment. It’s it alarming? But it’s true!  Isn’t planning how you are going to spend the rest of your life more important than how you are going to spend a few days of it?

Let me really spell it out for you…

• … If you want to eliminate your job, you can do it with a proper plan.
• … If you want to start a business, you can do it with a proper plan.
• … If you want to lose weight, get out of debt, buy a home, travel the world, drive a classic car, go on a missions trip or vacation, you can do them ALL with a proper vision and plan.

Look, I’m not just spouting a “Rah Rah” message for you here.

I’m a realist, so I don’t believe in just getting all hyped up about an idea, and then not turn it into action.  Simple motivation tactics don’t last.  Its one thing to have some motivation in your life, but it’s a completely different experience to have a life shaping vision.

One of my own personal goals for 2009 is to open as many eyes possible to the power of discovering your own Lifeonaire vision, so they can finally begin achieving the incredible results I have been so blessed to experience.

I truly know what it’s like to struggle with turning dreams into goals.  I know what it takes to crystallize your goals into a specific plan of action, and then actually achieve them. I’ve lived it.  Even more importantly I’ve worked through it.  And now I’ve taught it to others, and I’d like the chance to take you by the hand and teach you how to do it as well.  Will you join me?

“YES, I NEED TO BE A LIFEONAIRE!”

Here’s What You’ll Learn at This Event:

• We’re going to take you gingerly by the hand and give you step by step instructions on how to find your passion and create the vision for exactly how you choose for your life to look.

• You will know exactly what’s been holding you back from accomplishing your goals in the past.
• You’ll have a specific plan for achieving your vision, and you’ll know exactly how long it will take for you to get there.
• You will know the exact dollar amount your vision will cost you to create.
• How to devise a specific action plan to ensure the accomplishment of your vision, regardless of how extraordinary you make it.
• Step by step action plan for eliminating debt (regardless of how much debt you have)

Our goal at these events is to flip your life upside down and open your eyes to possibilities that you have never seen before.  We’ll also be right there with you to help you put together a vision and plan that will truly change your life forever.

The bottom line? Your life will never be the same again.

I hope you hear the passion in my “voice” here.  This is something I’ve been profoundly impacted by – my life will never be the same.  And I’ve seen the same thing happen to everyone who’s gone through the same, eye-opening experience. And I want the same for you.

We have scheduled two events, taking place in two different locales.  If what’s laid out above resonates with you – if you know you need your own “Lifeonaire Vision”, or maybe you’ve identified you’re living someone else’s plan for your life…

“Yes, Please Reserve My Seat Now!”

You’re now at a crossroads…which path is yours?

If you’ve read this far then I’m going to assume there’s something about the way you life is structured right now that’s unsettling you.

• Maybe you’re sick and tired of “setting goals” in the usual way, only to continue falling embarrassingly short time and time again.
• Maybe you’re struggling and can’t seem to find that balance between work and family.
• Maybe you’re pushing fast forward, but aren’t sure where you’re really even going in the long run.
• Maybe up to now you’ve believed the lie that “enough money” is all you need to live a fully satisfied and fulfilled life.
• Or maybe there’s something else entirely, nagging at you, begging for change…

Whatever it is, if you’re sick and tired of what hasn’t worked so far and you’re ready to take the bull by the horns and become a Lifeonaire, then there’s really only one choice you should make at this point: Join us…either in Baltimore or St. Louis in June…

…and take those first key steps with us into a notably more fulfilling life.
