OK, I believe I am the luckiest guy in Fort Myers. Here are some reasons why:

1. I have great personal and business relationships. My adventures in life have led me to a wonderful life full of great, great people. For example, right now I am up in Pittsburgh, PA helping my friends launch the Pittsburgh Forever Wealth Club and they are such awesome friends that I am helping enable them to help others here in Pittsburgh.
2. I believe I am the luckiest guy in Ft Myers because I have two awesome, awesome kids. Yes, I am divorced but I now have a good relationship with my former wife and a GREAT relationship with my kids. Both of my boys are active in Cub scouts and my youngest is active in peewee football.
3. I am the luckiest guy in Fort Myers as I have helped a lot of people get what they want or at least get clarity on what they want. You can see evidence of this at Ray Higdon’s Testimonies
4. Another thing that makes me the luckiest guy in Ft Myers is I get to speak at all of the high schools in Lee County. This is one of my favorite things to do. I speak to high schoolers on being an entrepreneur.
5. The last thing I believe that makes me the luckiest guy in Fort Myers is that I wake up everyday loving life. Has life gone exactly how I wanted it to go? No, it has gone EVEN BETTER! Fort Myers is such a beautiful area filled with cool things to do, I sure am glad I picked Fort Myers to be the luckiest guy in!

Know that you are lucky too. Your belief systems dictate your experiences. When you feel lucky, things go better for you. So, the question is…Do you feel lucky? Well, do ya?

PS: Make it an awesome day!

First of all, anyone serious about success should use a coach. I have used a life coach, business coach, even a speaking coach to take my knowledge and strategies to the next level. Before you hire a coach in Fort Myers, make sure you are clear on what you want. Do you have personal goals in your life that you want to accomplish? Or are you more focused on your career? Perhaps you believe a coach in Fort Myers could help you build that company you have either always wanted to build or that company you already have but feel could be much better.

As a coach in Fort Myers, I can tell you that coaches are a great way to get real and candid feedback on your current situation and your goals. You want to make sure if you do decide on using a coach in Fort Myers that their personality meshes with yours as this is a relationship, not just a business transaction. Listen to your gut. If you do not believe that the coach in Fort Myers will provide you value, DO NOT HIRE THEM! I have met some great coaches in Ft Myers but know that you never have to settle. The costs are not that much different to hire the best coach in Ft Myers for your needs, just be sure to be open to your options. If you and your business is in Ft Myers, I do think a coach located in Ft Myers may be a great option for you.

PS: A lot of people ask me what I do, I have been hired as a life coach, business or marketing coach and even a speaker coach. My passion in life is helping others, as should be the passion of any other coach in Ft Myers. Wherever you are in your journey, I wish you amazing success!

Jim Rohn said it best when he said, “Don’t wish for things to be easier, wish for YOU to be better!” This is advice I think a lot of us could use more in our lives. If you study the law of attraction, you learn that when you worry and focus on your competition, you attract more competition, SO STOP DOING IT!

If you subscribe to the idea that there is plenty of whatever it is you do out there for everyone, you stop worrying about competition. When I am out and about at events and businesses, I hear a lot of business owners and real estate professionals talk about their competition, and typically in a negative way. There are two main reasons not to do this. Number one is if you subscribe to the idea of the law of attraction, which I do, you understand that energy flows where attention goes and you focusing on your competition only creates more competition for you! A great example is elections. The media talks about how bad someone is and they end up winning!

The second main reason is when you talk about people or competition, you are reducing the amount of time you can think and talk about your own business. I don’t care who you are, your business can always be improved! Spend your time and energy thinking of how to make your own business better and that is time well spent!

I work with a lot of real estate investors and I see a lot of investors spend their time focusing on their competition. I recall one time I had a property for sale and I emailed it out to my database. The next day, another investor had taken that property and resent it out to his database telling everyone how bad of a deal it was! The great thing — he had a link to my website in his email! The next two days I had more than a 20% increase in hits on my website than normal and I have to think that investor had a lot to do with it!

Now, not all competition stories are that clear cut where focusing on the competition was a dumb decision but just know that each minute you spend focusing on things you cannot control, you lose control of the things you do!

Ever notice when you expect something to happen or expect it to turn out a certain way, it usually does? Have you ever noticed how when you are around people that think you are awesome…YOU ARE AWESOME? And when you are around people that you know don’t really care for you, you never seem to say or do the right things?
Your beliefs become your experience. When you think the least of someone, they will deliver for you. When you believe something is going to be hard or impossible to do, that will be your experience. Did you know that some people, like me, are addicted to the beliefs that they are lucky and that money and happiness comes easily and frequently? When you have good things as your beliefs, that is what you experience!
Some believe that nothing good can happen to them unless they take massive action or work really hard. If those individuals are unable to or just not motivated enough to work hard, as long as they have the belief that without working hard they cannot succeed, they will not. Some people wonder why others never work hard, nor ever worry but they seem to have a charmed life and are just lucky with what comes their way. If you ask those individuals why they think they are “lucky”, they would usually say that they just believe things come to them or that they are lucky. Talk to people who have won the lottery multiple times or the ones that always seem to win contests and you will find different THINKING (not action) than those that are struggling. THINK ABOUT IT!

So this Saturday I had a vision. I know I can do more to help
people but had never thought of a way. This vision showed me
how. I am currently in the process of leasing commercial
space and having a type of community center to help listen to
and educate those in SWFL that are facing tough times. Those
in foreclosure, those that have lost their job or those
crippled with fear and stress over the current financial
environment. This center will have a nursery for those
parents who need a babysitter, audio stations that people
can come in and listen to such greats as Rich Dad, Poor Dad,
4 hour workweek, think and grow rich, etc. And I will do free
events, with absolutely no sales, to help them address and
overcome their current circumstances.

I have raised money, collected cans, ran laps and served food
and while ALL of those things are worthwhile, they were not
using my talents and skills. Teaching and educating is my
passion and my skill.

Tonight I kick off the first event at the Clarion Hotel at
6:30pm.
12635 South Cleveland Ave.
Fort Myers, FL 33907

This event is FREE and I encourage you that if you know
someone who is going through tough times, please invite them
and invite them with the knowledge that they will not be sold
anything. I will not be mentioning ANYTHING I am associated
with. This is NOT a foreclosure help center, nor a credit
repair event. This is a no holds barred, look at your
current situation and lets help you get aligned with where you
want to go. So many people I talk to in SWFL are crippled with
stress and fear. They have been beaten down and have forgotten
that they are still alive. As long as our hearts continue to
beat, we still have so much power within us that we can
literally do anything. Those who attend tonight will have the
opportunity to complete homework of which, those that do, will
have the opportunity to work with me, or one of the other
coaches who have volunteered their time…FOR FREE.

Thank you in helping me get the word out. I will continue to
do these events at places until I have the center as I believe
SWFL needs it.

Are you in the stands or on the court?

Picture life like a basketball game. You have people in the stands, players on the court and coaches. How do you spend your day? Do you spend your day thinking about what you are going to do? Do you spend your day studying for something you plan to do? Do you spend your day complaining about others? Do you spend your day complaining about things that happen?

PEOPLE ON THE COURT DO NOT THINK, THEY JUST DO.

People that are in the stands of life talk, gossip, hate, love those people that are really living life. Whether you are jealous or envious of your neighbor or admiring of your favorite sports star or country music singer, that is NOT living on the court. That is living your life in a mass trance and allowing life to pass you by while you do a great job of being a spectator. Ever notice that people in the stands of games will boo or talk about which way the player should have done this or that? Life is so painfully mundane when you don’t have anything on the line. We go through this life and do what we do and then we die. Talking about writing the book you want to write, planning your around the world vacation, even reading this note right now, is still spectating. Get on the court. Get on the court by taking action. Take action by calling the people you have been meaning to call but keep putting off. Take action by eliminating the divide between the people you care most about. What does Gandhi, Martin Luther King, and yes, even Obama, all have in common? They are human. So are we all. We all have the same capabilities in us. One person can make a difference in this world. You can make a difference today by just sharing that infectious smile of yours. You can make a difference by holding your loved one a little longer. The next time you start complaining about all the things that are wrong with your spouse, stop and ask yourself, what do you love about them? What are the things that originally attracted you to them? What is the security, the compassion, the sex? What was it?

YOU CANNOT GAIN ANYTHING NEW UNTIL YOU ARE GRATEFUL FOR WHAT YOU HAVE

There is no someday. Someday is made up. Someday is laziness. Next time you say someday, just correct yourself and say I will never do that thing I would like to do. Here’s an example:
“Someday I will find the job of my dreams” and convert it to
“It is not important enough for me to find the job of my dreams so I will just settle my entire life”

Sounds a little different right? But unfortunately, it is accurate.

Take action now. Wanna fix a relationship? Pick up the phone and do it. Wanna write a book? Don’t finish this note and start writing it. Want to find your perfect soul mate? Love who you are, and you will attract someone that loves you. Stop blaming others. Stop pointing the fingers.

WE ALL HAVE VALID REASONS WHY WE ARE SCREWED UP, SO WHAT!

I know, I know, some of you have REALLY, REALLY good reasons why YOU are screwed up or why your love life sucks or why you can’t be successful. You are not unique. Your circumstances have happened before, and people overcame them. Don’t believe me? Ok, here goes.

As a child this woman grew up in a boarding house and her Mom relied on welfare. It was until the age of 7 that this woman experienced a bed of her own having always had to share. This woman was raped at the age of 9 by her cousin, then taken out for ice cream and told to keep it secret. This would not be the last time. Later her uncle would do the same as well as a family friend. At the age of 14 she gave birth to a boy that died two weeks later. Do you know who this woman is?

That woman, is Oprah Winfrey.

Now, some people find fault like there is a reward for it. Maybe your story is WORSE than Oprahs…so what? What do you wish to win? Do you wish to win an award for most screwed up life? Or would you rather live a life worth living?

There is nothing holding you back but yourself. Jack Canfield says Success is just outside your comfort zone. Take Action Today, not someday. When you are on the court the experiences are more vivid, your energy is unlimited and you lose the shackles of limitation and fear. You have all that which you need within you, just take action and be a witness to how great you really are.

Blessings and Gratitude!
