Become part of the team of distributors today! The president's statement:

To: The students now attending and to graduate students.

Re: This is the type of talent we are searching for:

Dare to ask WHY! Who else is worth your time besides YOU!

Imagine you're stuck in traffic, and another driver is taking dollar bills and throwing them out the window. You can't believe it. The guy is whacko. Every five minutes, another dollar flies out the window!

You probably never saw this. But you have seen someone throwing five minutes out the window.

Maybe you even did it yourself. The bus takes off and you're really enjoying the scenery: "Oh, a hill... look at that store... and there's a park!"

It's not so bad for the first few minutes. But then the cash register starts ringing up more wasted time. Ding! Ding!

To become a great team player as well as a great human being to be around requires applying your mind constantly, until it pervades every fiber of your being.

It all begins with a decision, a commitment. Try saying aloud: "Life is an opportunity. I want to use my mind, and be constantly moving toward my goal, and moving toward that goal involves others interacting with you as well as you interacting with them."

You may notice some resistance as a little voice protests inside your brain, saying something like: "No way! All work and no play will make Jack a dull boy and Jill a dull girl. C'mon, I am a ship unto myself, who are we kidding here; I don’t need these people.

Does this mean being an obsessive workaholic? Of course not -- you still need to sleep!

Let's understand. "Constant striving" means that when you sleep in order to be more productive, then the sleep becomes part of your overall goal. It's the same with eating, exercise and working well with teammates.

So what about relaxing?

Of course it's okay to relax. But relaxing means "changing gears." Your relaxation should be purposeful and directed. Think of something else that's not as exerting, but is still meaningful. For example, shift your focus to nature, music or art. Sometimes, even a simple change of scenery, a cold drink, or a breath of fresh air is enough to recharge your batteries. When you make a continuous effort to be helpful to your teammates you become great in their eyes. Think of how they will strive to become great in your eyes.

Don’t be a time hog. A time hog is constantly accepting from others and never offering your help in return.

We turn into a time hog, because it is painful to be constantly aware of others without effort and practice, to be constantly "on."

To break through that pain, focus instead on the pay-off, it is a part of intelligence you can only learn from practice. When you are constantly aware, every experience becomes a lesson in life. For example, if you are in a dentist's office, you could use that time to reach any number of crucial insights:

- I'm lucky to have teeth. A toothless life would be much less pleasurable.

- If there is such a thing as dental hygiene, there must be a concept of spiritual hygiene, too. When you state: I wonder what it is, means I am exploring what that is, mentally.

- Without the pain of the drill, my teeth would fall out. Perhaps some other difficulties in life also help me accomplish good things.

- The human body is so intricate. The integration of teeth, gums, tongue and saliva is an incredible feat of anatomical and physiological design. How did it all come about?

Whatever you are doing at any given moment – it could be cleaning the toilet. As you were cleaning the toilet you would be thinking how nice you are making the bathroom for your next client and you might think of what your opinion is of a place you had been in and had to use the restroom and what a disaster that was. You could be leading by example, there is nothing you would not do for your team, when in fact, a clean restroom will equal dollars in the pocket of each team member. Do your homework for the job and when you become part of that team do everything with purposeful intension; talking to a teammate, reading this information -- give it your full attention. Decide that you are willing to take the pain of thinking, of being aware, all day long. Being part of a team that are all giving to each other is a combination that will transcend to your clien,t as the most pleasant place they have ever been, with people who are un-commonly wonderful to each other and whose focus is on the client. This equals dollars in your pocket.

"CONTINUOUS:" WITHOUT INTERRUPTION

Whenever you accept a position on a team you must develop specific goals with and for that team and it should be without interruption and that includes study to be a better team player. It's actually better to study for one hour straight, than for two hours with interruptions. Interruptions break our train of thought and limit our ability to retain information. Interruptions take the power out of learning, which means study should be in your time away from your team at home or after client hours when a teammate will give you time and assistance in order to make you a better contributor to the team.

Set aside a certain time when you block everything else out, where you will not budge from the activity you're focusing on. Don't sit down and then get up to open the window. Then get up to fetch a soda. And get up again to close the window. And get up to turn on the radio.

Make up your mind: "I am going to do 'X' for one hour straight. No bouncing up and down!" For an entire 60 minutes, don't stop. Not to change your seat, not to get a drink, not for anything that isn't life threatening!

You can practice this while riding on the bus, or waiting at the dentist's office. Start with setting yourself a goal of 15 minutes to focus exclusively on one subject. It may be a problem you're having at your new job, a personal goal, or an issue in a relationship. For example, you might say to yourself, "The next 15 minutes I am going to devote to thinking about my family, how I can help them, why I love them, my pleasure in them."

Or try devoting 15 minutes a day to be aware of every aspect of life around you -- from the blood coursing through your veins to keep every cell alive, to the ant crawling across the ground under your feet. For those 15 minutes, you are totally attuned to the miracle of being alive.

Then, at the end of these 15 minutes, appreciate how the time was well spent. Time that otherwise would have been wasted...

Little by little, increase your time. First 15 minutes, then 30 minutes, then one hour, then two hours. Once you hit four hours, you're sailing.

Vilna Gaon, the great 18th century scholar, said that the first three hours and 59 minutes is stoking the furnace. By the fourth hour, the pot is boiling. And don't stop; because if you take the pot off the fire -- even for a few minutes -- you have to re-boil it all over again.

"CONSISTENT:" ACCORDING TO SCHEDULE

To really get into gear, you need to find your rhythm; there is nothing more frustrating for other team players than the now you see me, now you don’t, where someone is always having to follow up with you for participation. The human body loves patterns. Even the most daunting tasks become fluid when set into a schedule. This means doing the activity in the same place, at the same time, and in the same way (as much as reasonably possible). I like to use the restroom for the task in this explanation so you can appreciate that there is no task in a team environment that is beneath your contribution level for your team. A slacker who continually allows a few to do this task will be weeded out and new team players will take their place.

That's why school has certain pre-set activities every day. When we wake up It's a moment of conscious appreciation for getting another chance, another day. This awareness gets us up on the right side of the bed, starting our day on a high note and looking forward to being a team player with wonderful teammates. How are they all wonderful? Because they have been given the same guidance as you have. Imagine a client that comes in the door and everyone approaches to make them feel welcome. Imagine every client that has ever come to your clinic had more than one person performing something on their body, like a leg message for example, at the same time they were getting the treatment which they were paying for. Think of every aesthetician placing the tip in one container and at the end of every day, splitting the tips equally with their teammates and doing so with genuine appreciation for each member of the team; creating an atmosphere where each member is anxiously awaiting to help and assist each team member and the client is elevated to a beautiful status where they want to tell everyone in the world about their experience.

Training in schools, does not teach this very important concept and as a result are turning out millions of selfish self oriented individuals who believe that promoting themselves to the client brings them the most wealth. In fact it is taking money out of their pocket.

When it comes to your team’s goals, make a certain time of the day to re-assess your notes for accomplishments and goals set for that that day.  For however much or little time, make a commitment and be consistent every day, teammates must talk as a group. There is power in that commitment. You know you are going to change. Your life will be different because you each are contributing to the same goals.

Taking a position on the team with our clinic concept will require it. Commit yourself 365 days a year, for the rest of your life to positive goals: When you wake up in the morning, appreciate being alive and access your notes and accomplishments toward your goals; they could include simple things that must be attended to; but these good habits will transcend into life altering major things as time goes on.
 

"CYCLICAL:" REPETITION AND REVIEW

Life is not one-dimensional. It must be studied from every side and turned upside down; this will be evidenced in the daily meetings with your teammates.
 

Study the same subject for a long period of time. Don't bounce around superficially from one topic to the next. Choose a topic important to each team member and hopefully become an expert and become engrossed.
 

Whatever subject you choose there is always more to learn; even as you move to other areas of knowledge, be alert to pick up information pertinent to previous topics. This allows for cross-referencing, and ultimately, a deeper understanding for all.
 

Whatever you learn, make sure you don't forget. How many times has an insight struck you with astonishing clarity -- and then slipped out of your mind the next day? The insight is fleeting if you don't capture it in some way; write it down. It has to sink into your bones and permeate your mind to be passionately expressed to your teammates.

This means constant review of one's learning in some form or another.

Verbal repetition is powerful. It clarifies an idea and brings it into reality. That's why we repeat things over and over in our minds.

It's kind of like "Remember the Alamo!" Of course, you may forget the Alamo, but you can remember this article in a catch-phrase like "Make Every Second Count" or "Live to the Max." Whatever moves you and gets you energized, repeat it again, again and again. Make it your background music. When you wear out one phrase, find another. Whatever works has power and when it works for more than one person in a team, the power exponentially explodes.

"COMPREHENSIVE:" BE A STUDENT OF LIFE

Imagine someone asking you, "What do you do?" You answer, "I'm a nurse," or "I'm an aesthetician," or "I'm an massage therapist” or a “BLANK”.

Wrong! Wrong! Wrong!

Suppose you see someone going to sleep, and you say to him, "What do you do?"
 

He says, "I'm a sleeper."
 

"You're a sleeper? How do you make a living doing that? Who pays you to sleep?"
 

That's my point exactly. When you add up the hours over a lifetime, you spend more time sleeping than being a “BLANK”.

The essential you, is not the “BLANK”. It is the thinker, the seeker of knowledge, the living, breathing human being who loves, who is continually growing, who desires greatness, who hungers to know more. Identify with this. It is who you really are. We want you to become known as part of the greatest team on earth. Our clinics will expand across the US, because of our concept that becomes human, with multi-human faces, which will provide an endless supply of clients who can hardly wait to tell their friends about their experiences.
 

Ask a woman with four children: "Who are you?" She answers: "A mother." But that's only one aspect of who she is (albeit an important one). She's also a friend, a community volunteer, an educator, a chef, a nurse, a child psychologist, a thinker, an information gatherer, a pursuer of truth, and more.

Unfortunately, we develop this identity problem early in life. Every child is asked: "What do you want to be when you grow up?" This question has subtle implications that can damage a developing personality. The child is thinking: "What's wrong with being “me?” Is “me”' so terrible that I have to “become” something different when I grow up?"

If you make study out of your life, your main occupation, then your profession will blossom.  The question is not "what are you doing for a living," but rather "what do you do in life?" If you see yourself as a "thinker," then thinking becomes a priority. So update your self-definition. Learn your whole reason for living and live it fully with conviction, by becoming a proud member of our team.

IS LIFE GOOD?

The bottom line is, you have to decide: Is life good or not?

This comes down to a more basic question: Does life have purpose? If it doesn't, then there's no reason not to waste time, because nothing really matters anyway. But if you believe there is a purpose to life, why would you want to waste any bit of it? You'll want to understand every aspect of life, to do the most with the limited time you have.

The worst crime is murder but killing time is a death sentence.

When you commit yourself to a life of pleasure -- you will go out searching for the highest pleasures. Along the way, you'll make distinctions between pleasure and comfort, between necessary pain and needless suffering. And through the process, you'll discover the true meaning of life.

Don’t just grow older, grow wiser with age, starting with classes you have taken at school; if you have made a commitment to join our team, then you are discovering the usefulness of life instead of time wasted.

10 TOOLS FOR CONSTANT AWARENESS

1) Plan out what you want to accomplish, in words and in writing with your teammates. If you know what you're after, you'll pursue it with more vitality when team players can relate.

2) Plan in the evening how you'll get up in the morning. Don't let the snooze button control your life.

3) To start off on the right foot, get up 10 minutes early and walk in the sunlight; take it into the retina; it’s good for your sleep cycle, it helps to reset your internal clock.

4) Review your day. See what the obstacles were. Strategize how to avoid them in the future and talk about them in your team meeting. Review what you learned in the past 24 hours as it applies to what knowledge you have accumulated to date.

5) Catch yourself daydreaming at least once a day and examine: "What am I doing right now, and how could I use this moment more effectively?"

6) Become a student of life and aesthetics. Study wherever you are. Have books, thoughts, etc. ready to keep your mind growing. (No staring out the window like a zombie.)

7) Memorize pieces of wisdom. It will give you something to learn as you walk down the street or wait in line at the supermarket.

8) Pick appealing catch-phrases, to inspire yourself and your teammates on the spot, and to wake yourself up when you feel like drifting off.

9) Frequently ponder the question: What is the purpose of life? What did I go to aesthetics school for? What is my goal? If your answer is not to become better at what you are now doing; get out now, do your teammates a favor; don’t hold them back with your dissatisfaction. Your dissatisfaction will likely get you discharged when your teammates begin to take note of your disinterest.

10) Plan ahead now. What do you want to study? What do you need to realize your ambitions? How do you want to grow?

Everyone says that "time is money." But which is more important: five minutes or a dollar? Time is the greatest opportunity of your life. Don't waste a minute of it. Albert Einstein said: If it were not for time, everything would happen at once.

Were you ever in an important conversation and you felt like you weren't getting your point across? You started shouting: "Do you hear what I'm saying? You're not paying attention. Do you hear me!?

Everyone is guilty of this before they learn what time really is and how important it is. How many times do we think we're listening to the other person, only to find out later that our mind was somewhere else? Before you decide whether to accept or reject an idea, before you argue, before you make statements, before you decry -- first make sure you are capable of listening and you're being objective. Otherwise, you're expressing an emotional prejudice you have experienced in every other lengthily conversation where your first inclination was to nod off because of your poor listening skills-- so any comment before you have heard the information, is not an intelligent opinion.

Effective listening means:
 

1.      Hearing the words.

2.      Understanding the message.

3.      Putting it into action.
 

We throw around concepts, but often our thoughts are vague and unsubstantial. Without an objective definition, we can't begin any intellectual process.

"Are you a good person?"

"Of course, I'm good! What kind of an insulting question is that?"

"So tell me, what is the definition of a good person?"

If you really desire to be a good person, you need more than feelings to determine whether you're reaching your goal or not. You'll need a clear way of measuring it. Otherwise people can do whatever they feel like doing and paint themselves "good." Even Hitler presumably had a goal of "doing good”. But somewhere, something went wrong.

Once you have an objective definition, then you can determine if your life is consistent with that definition. It's true a person can twist anything. But the more clarity you have, the harder it is to twist and in daily team meeting, the more you join in, the greater since of clarity you will develop.
 

THE " I – YOU – HE " GAME

It's based on the premise that we usually describe people on three levels. When we refer to ourselves, we paint the best picture possible. With others, we don't want to be insulting to their face, so we paint them gray. And when someone is not around to defend himself or herself, we paint them black. "I" am white. "You" are gray. "He" is black.

You're the passenger in a car careening 90 miles an hour down a winding mountain road. As you grip the dashboard in fear for your life, you turn to the driver and say, "Aren't you being a bit foolhardy?"
 

"Who Me, the driver states? Oh, no. I'm brave. I'm not afraid of anything!"

If you're lucky enough to live to tell about it, you say, "That guy's a reckless idiot!"

The driver refers to himself as "brave." To his face, you call him "foolhardy." To a third party, he's a "reckless idiot."

Which one is the reality?

By working through objective definitions, we can assess the situation without personal feelings getting in the way:

Back to the car on the mountain road;

You turn to the driver and say, "Why are we risking our lives? What is the worthwhile purpose?"

The driver will have to agree he's being a reckless idiot.

That's being an intellectual. Leading with your head, rather than muddling through life based on feelings alone is the formation of a great team player. Otherwise, you're always stuck on the level of: "I'm brave, he's a reckless idiot."
 

With rare exception, no one consciously chooses evil in the sense of "evil, oooooh, I want to be bad and inflict pain and suffering." No.” We choose evil because in the short term, it's a less painful way of dealing with a difficult situation. We do what we "feel like" doing because it's easy.

Apply this definition of free will to your life. Do you want to be great? Sure! But you don't feel like making the effort. You feel like postponing it, procrastinating and ducking the issue.

"I don't want to be great, I only want to be average."

"Really? You want mediocrity?"

"Of course not. I want greatness. Just not today!"

"Why not today?"

"Because I just don't feel like it..."

Do you have a goal? You know you can do it. It's just too painful. Make the decision and nothing will stop you. That's using your free will. We are searching for these types of individuals for our clinics.

If you have your certificate or, you have a commitment to obtain it; we are searching for you. We are going to help you reach your potential if you have chosen natural health and skincare as your passion.

Ask yourself:

Why am I going to the school I am now in?

·         To get a certificate?

·         Why?

·         Because I want to get into a good job?

·         Why?

·         So I can pay back my loan?

If you came up with these answers and no others, you might be working for our competitors one day, but certainly not our team.

Can You analyze yourself objectively?

·         Am I lazy? Why?

·         Am I disorganized? Why?

·         Do I get angry? When?

·         Why do I ever get defensive? About what?

·         What makes me jealous?

·         What makes me arrogant?

·         Do I have trouble making decisions? Why?

·         Do I lack self-discipline?

·         Do I lack self-confidence?

·         Why don't I take more initiative?

Negative character traits is the root of our problems. Make a list of your negative traits, and identify when they affect you the most. Then analyze what triggers these reactions in you. Finally, formulate an effective counter-approach.
 

Working through this takes time. But this opportunity in your life will depend on that commitment.

READ YOUR EMOTIONS

Get in touch with your emotional state. Take a reading of how you feel. Happy? Angry? Tense? Sad? Emotions are a measuring stick for what's going on below the surface and it can rob a clinic of its clients. It's like taking your temperature. If you're sick, you need to be aware so you can fix the problem.
 

Find out why you're upset. Who or what is pressuring you? Is it an internal or an external problem? You need to identify it, in order to fix it; all it requires is effort and change.  Your time would be well spent.
 

Be encouraging and reward yourself and others around you for success.

Don't say that something you are trying doesn't work. You may not have made the effort correctly. Don't give up on your intuition and perception. Just realize you haven't yet brought it home to actualization.
 

Consider how the basic human drive affects you: security, self-respect, honor, passion, social pressure, and possessions. Pay particularly close attention to how you accept responsibility. Let's say that you made a mistake. You want to apologize in a full and forthright manner, yet you feel like forgetting the whole thing, hiding, running away and saying "it's not my fault."

This is the volcano. We want to be tough, dedicated and powerful -- yet we feel like being marshmallows. Choosing the path of the soul doesn't come naturally. It takes a lot of time and hard work. This will help you develop the teamwork skills necessary to seize this opportunity with our clinics.

KNOW WHAT YOU KNOW

Don't think that just because you understand something, you are living with it. It is possible to believe one way, and yet act another. It happens to us all sometimes. You can believe it's important to eat healthy food, yet gorge yourself on French fries and chocolate cake.

Our level of clarity, which can’t be hidden from our teammates, determines our actions. If we understand an idea on just a superficial level, then we'll have difficulty sticking to it when the going gets tough. Re-creating a treatment exactly the same, keeps your client from feeling cheated.
 

Next time you go to a funeral, watch carefully. When they remove the body from the chapel, the mourners start to cry. Are they crying because they want the body to stay there? No! All of a sudden there is a realization of death that he/she won't be coming back. At the cemetery, they lower the casket into the ground and the mourner’s cry again. It's the emotional realization that death is final now.

Until you align your feelings with reality, you are in dreamland. Growth begins in the mind, but your heart has to buy into everything your mind discovers. Only then will you integrate these ideas into day-to-day life and achieve greatness and you will never accomplish greatness unless others see you as great. When you lead by example you are great.

Don't just use slogans to parrot things that you have heard. Know why you are doing what you are doing. Otherwise, it's just a shell talking. You may have adopted part of society without analyzing its validity. Check it out.

Work through all the issues until you have "five-finger clarity." A human being who knows what he/she wants will get there. It's like a homing mechanism on a missile. If you program it right, you will get there.

WHY IS "KNOWING YOURSELF" AN INGREDIENT IN WISDOM?

·        You can know truth if you move honestly into yourself.

·        Emotions are powerful forces of greatness. Know them. Harness them.

·        Identify your problems. It's the beginning of solving them.

·        If you don't get it straight now, you're bound to make some bad mistakes.

·        Don't be afraid of finding out who you really are.

·        Use your free will as a conscious tool for better living.

·        If you're angry or upset, track it down. What's the root?

·        If you're acting illogically, at least acknowledge that to yourself!

·        The key to sanity is letting truth into the body.

You can't afford to wait too long to get to know yourself, because you are the most fascinating person you'll ever meet; and opportunity is close at hand.

CAPTURING THE "WOW" feeling that makes you great to be around and a pleasure to work with.

THE QUIET "WOW"

A quiet wow can be equally awesome.

After a storm, you look out the window to see the glisten of fresh snow blanketing the ground and thin icicles dangling from the trees. A moment, literally, frozen in time. 

When we meditate on the simple beauty of life, we are lifted, connected, transported out of ourselves.

We have constant access to this quiet awesomeness.

·        A spring walk through the forest.

·        A babbling brook. Majestic music.

·        A baby laughing.

·        A heartbeat.

So why don't we feel this awe constantly? Because yesterday's novelty is today's boredom. Notice how little children find everything exciting and fascinating. But before long, they get used to what they have constant access to -- people, places, ideas. And life just seems mundane.

Yet who says that growing up means becoming numb?

Instead of taking your daily environment for granted, stop and focus. When you look at a human being, appreciate the camaraderie. Consider, for example, human speech: the coordination of lips, teeth, tongue, larynx -- while the brain recalls, formulates, and transmits thoughts into muscle movements, which then somehow produce sound waves. And it's all just a bunch of electrons spinning at nearly the speed of light, connected to protons through the magical power of gravity.

For just a moment, stand in awe. See everything in the dimension that it really is, not the mundane nature that we're used to. Try it one time. This will re-tune you into the awesome power of living and transform you from a job seeker into an ultimately appreciated team player.

You don't need to travel around the world for awe-inspiring moments. They are available to us constantly, everywhere. If we just open our eyes they will impact us.  Recognizing a job well done by a fellow student or co-worker; realizing that talent came to them as did you; through commitment, long hours and passion.  Recognize the AWE in that and you are who we are searching for.

An entire forest can be germinated from a single seed. Teamwork is just as productive.

It's a mind-boggling world. We just have to pay attention.

The fight for life is to be sensitive and aware. Walk through life constantly keeping your eyes open with toothpicks, never bored, never mundane and never into a simple existence. Always wondering what is life, who are we, what are we doing, and you will always receive your bounty. Every client that comes into contact with your new and flourishing clarity will return those positive emotions with an investment in dollars.

If you pay attention and think about everything that is going on, it is a different lifestyle, a different power for existence, a different way of dealing with your family, friends, the environment. You will never be petty. You will never give up. You are lifted out of it. You become a fascinating adult. Everything is mind-boggling. This will transform you for the rest of your life and mold you into one of our team players and leaders.

EXALTED HUMAN POTENTIAL

A cheetah is awesome, and a super-computer is awesome.

But humans are much more. There is spiritual potential. Every human being has divine powers. We can become great by emulating the greatness of our mentors and through simple acts of kindness that can move mountains.
 

Treat yourself with the same awesomeness as if you were a volcano. There is tremendous energy available. You just need to tap into it. You are latent power waiting to be actualized. Never lose sight of this fact.

Open yourself up to see your real potential. Be in awe of your human ability to move this universe, to encompass it, to understand it, to reach the stars, and send hunks of steel flying to distant planets.

Don't underestimate yourself. Stop looking at what you are. Look at what you can and will be. You can solve problems, instead of just accepting them and suffering. You can destroy or create; it is up to your own free will. That is what we are dealing with. We want the best of the best and all the rest will mundanely work elsewhere.

Use this power proactively. If you've got an important deadline, or, you are preparing for a client, prepare with your teammates so you and your client can walk under the stars. It will sober you with good thoughts and snap you into the right perspective. There's no reason to be nervous. A world of opportunity awaits you. Now is the time to step up to the plate and knock the ball out of the park.
 

Always be aware of the awesome power within you, and within every human being who will accept it. Treat everyone with reverence, caution, respect and AWE and with complete humbleness. Treat yourself the same way because humbleness is not meekness, it is the only true form of power, because it lacks all animosity selfishly.

WHY IS "AWE" AN INGREDIENT OF WISDOM?

·         Awe can break through laziness and open ruts. It unleashes potential and locked-up energies.

·         It's a human tendency to be petty. Awe pulls us up and out.

·         The reality of this world is that there is nothing mundane.

·         Life has the potential to be one thrill after another, if you understand the power of every moment.

·         Concretize awesome experiences so you can recall them at any time in your brain.

·         Awe is the result of seeing potential --- actualized.

·         Seek the small "wows." The awesomeness of life is without end.

·         Use the awesomeness of everyday life to relate to drive your every movement.

·         See the power and the pleasure of understanding truth. You are in touch with the awe of "wisdom."

·         Step outside under the stars at night and into the sunlight in the early morning. It'll put you back on track.

The essential choice of life is to open our eyes to available opportunities, and to fear the consequences of avoiding that reality. We are going to cause your heart to race at the opportunity we have for you.

Fear of consequences can be a great motivator in getting the job done quickly and efficiently.

Ask a teenager: "Please take out the garbage." The response: "Later!"

Now say it like this: "If you don't take out the garbage, you can forget about borrowing the car." The teen's response? He's running with the garbage!

Fear is like any other emotion -- there are both positive and negative aspects. Negative fear is debilitating. Positive fear is exhilarating. The adrenaline gets the blood running in your veins. It gives you power to accomplish what you want to do. If you're walking along and spot a snake, fear propels you to run with blazing speed and hurdle the fence like an Olympian. With fear, you are out of the dream world and 100 percent into reality.

Making the right choice is a constant human struggle. We have an inclination to take the easy way out, and to ignore the coming consequences. "To see or not to see the opportunity.

BE AFRAID OF MEANINGLESSNESS

Remember the old TV program where you had 10 minutes in a supermarket to grab whatever you could? The woman was running up and down the aisles, looking for what is most valuable. She didn't want to end up with a cartload of soapsuds.

That show is a metaphor for life. There are eternal consequences. Each moment can be lived to the fullest -- or wasted into nothingness. Life is serious business.

The ultimate human fear is to live without meaning. We all want to have an impact, to help others, to change the world. Try saying the words: "I'm happy being mediocre." You can't say it!

Remember the time you asked yourself, "What does it all add up to?" We have this moment of clarity, and then what do we do? We run for the ostrich hole to stick our head in, start-playing tennis, put on the music, call up a friend.
 

Don't run for the ostrich hole. Be afraid of being mediocre. Be afraid of not being all you can be. Be afraid of waking up one morning and saying to yourself: "What did I do with my life?" Being a loner, not part of a team, is sadness playing out before your very eyes.

Use this fear to inspire you to figure out what counts most in life. Then become part of it.

FEAR OF MORTALITY

Each of us knows we will die one day. But we fool ourselves into thinking that those who die belong to a separate sector of humanity. "They are the mortal ones. We are immortal." Underneath it all, we have this illusion.

Did you ever have a friend who died? Maybe he or she was a teen and got killed in an accident. How did you react? "But I just talked to him/her yesterday! He/she can't really be dead. He/she was so full of life!"

What does that mean -- "It can't be"? What we are really saying is, that it's too close for comfort. I'm not in the mortal group. And now my friend is dead. That's too close. It can't be.

Realize that each of us can be dead in one minute. You don't need an airplane crashing through the ceiling. You don't need a heart condition. These are the facts of life. But in our youth, we don't feel like looking at it. "I am immortal is what we say. Other people get mugged and other people die. Not me!"

When someone we know dies unexpectedly, we feel our own sense of vulnerability. It makes us think, "Am I using my time efficiently?"

Take a close look at your life history. Trace the years back, and see how well you've used your time. Often our past is a blur, and as you get older, this becomes even more pronounced.

We all have a clock ticking and don't know how long it's going to run. How many years do you figure you have left? Don't think it's open-ended. Someday you will have only one year left. And someday you will have only one day left. So plan for it now. Put your life on track by starting today.

WIPE OUT PETTINESS

Use this realization to correct the way you're living now. Wipe out pettiness, irritations, illusions, and trivialities; they have no place as a team player.
 

How do you wipe out pettiness? Imagine you're fighting with your parents or siblings, and then find out you have only one day to live. What will you say? Or if they were dying, what would you say? Too often we don't appreciate what we have until we lose it. When they're dead, we say, "I should have treated them better. I should have called more often, etc, etc."

If you live with this reality, you will use your time more wisely. You will not hold a grudge. You won't waste your time arguing with someone who cut in line. Life is too precious to be petty.

Be motivated by the fear of losing what is precious. Imagine losing your eyesight. Walk around with a blindfold for an hour to get clarity on the subject.

Work on focusing each day and all your tomorrows will be sweeter.  Will you waste time on frivolous things -- or try to achieve something more lasting, more meaningful, more eternal, the choice is up to you?

Do you see how that fear pushes you a bit?

Unfortunately, human nature is to become distracted. Each of us has a self-doubting inclination. It's like a vicious dog, always threatening you: "You're overextending yourself. You'll have a nervous breakdown and fall apart." We hesitate to act because we're frightened by threats.

Even if you don’t fear a God, you certainly fear societies, laws and rules.  Nothing will stand in your way. The vicious dog of self-doubt is insignificant compared to fear. You just push right ahead. You're free from all other fears.

It's a mistake to think that fear is painful. Yes, fear is uncomfortable, but it delivers great pleasure. When they shove you out of the airplane before the parachute opens, you forget all the nonsense of this world. The brush with death makes you appreciate how good it is to be alive. You're plugged into reality. Suddenly life is a thrill!

Counteract the discomfort of fear by focusing on the positive side -- every moment is lived with awareness and excitement. Gather your powers. Use your potential. Be motivated by fear.

Go to an amusement park and watch people getting off the roller coaster. Everyone's giggling for the first block: "It's great to be alive." By the second block, they're getting more serious as they begin to remember their problems. By the third block, they're into petty nonsense, back to their old depressed selves.

Life is boring without fear. Notice how "successful" people inevitably look for new risky ventures. It may be a risky financial investment, or it may be hang-gliding lessons or it may be a company like ours searching for real team players that by default are real achievers.

What's the key to getting the most out of life? Feel like you're constantly getting off the roller coaster. Think about these statements and what feelings they generate:

IS FEAR PARALYZING ?

People think that fear is paralyzing and reduces their potential.

Actually, the opposite is true. Fear can generate super-human feats. We have all heard stories about a mother who picked up a car to save her child trapped underneath. Facing fear is empowering. It gives you strength you never knew you had. The same empowering fear you will face when you accept our opportunity; you stand to gain wealth to compare to your dreams, yet you risk at the same time.

Fear is only damaging when you run away and don't confront it.

Imagine watching bullies beat someone up, and you just stand by watching. You'll wince every time you think about it from that day forward if you did nothing. If you don't face the fear and stand up for what's right, you'll suffer that experience for the rest of your life. The same will be true with missed opportunity.

But if you face the bullies and they back down (or even if you fight and get a little bloody), you'll enjoy that moment for the rest of your life. You were afraid, but you stood up. You did the right thing. That's true pleasure and you were a true winner.

Better to try and fail, than to have feared and never tried at all.

"Shock" debilitates, "fear" motivates. Imagine a cowboy riding a bucking bronco. The fear of being tossed off makes him alert to every move, so his response can be accurate and quick.

You have to look at life the same way.

AVOIDING THE CHALLENGE

Too often, we miss an opportunity to excel because we say: "I can't. It's too much effort." For example, imagine you're asked to memorize one page of the phone book in 24 hours. "Impossible!" you say.

But what if you're held hostage and they say: "If you don't memorize one page of the phone book by tomorrow night, you're dead." No question you'll do it!

Take advantage of the power of fear as a tool to tackle all your "I can’t’s." Make a list of these "I cant’s" and put a price tag on them. What is the reward, and what is the consequence? Having this clarity will turn you into a very effective human being and a priceless team player.

FEAR MEANS LOSS OF FREEDOM

People avoid fear in order to preserve independence. We think if there is an outside force telling us what to do, we'll be intimidated into becoming a robot. We'd rather choose to do the right thing on our own.

At work, you know that if you don't show up, you'll get fired, so you get out of bed early. Fear of failing a test makes you study harder. In the end, this fear helps you succeed and have more self-respect.

We all want greatness. We want to be tough, disciplined, organized. Fear leaves you unencumbered. For the right amount of money or for survival, you will do whatever it takes to succeed.

Suppose there was a program to help bring homeless people into the community shelter. Ideally, you would do this for free. But if you were offered $100 for every homeless person you brought to the shelter, you'd bring in more. Did the reward "corrupt" you? No. It just gave you a stronger motivation for doing what you already knew was right.

And there's an added consideration as well. Hopefully, acting out of fear will eventually lead you to do the right thing out of love.

THE PAIN REFLEX

Everyone is born with the ability to sense pain. If we are stuck with a pin or burned by fire, our hand jumps back instinctively. But some people are born without a pain response. They feel nothing if their hand is put into fire.

Sure, it's nice not to feel pain. But someone who feels no pain is in constant danger. They are black and blue all the time. If they put their hand in the fire they say: "You smell something burning? When they look down at their hand the say: Hey; It's my hand!" But their in trouble because the hand is gone already.

Pain is essential to our survival. And that's the purpose of fear, to keep ultimate consequences clearly in mind. It's not the goal in life, but a means to an end. It helps us think twice before we insult someone or yell at our friends and co-workers.

Imagine you're speaking to someone and he or she starts spewing filthy gossip. You know it's wrong to listen, so you ponder, "Maybe I'll just politely stand here for a few minutes..." But if someone is ready to smack you on the head with a baseball bat for gossiping, you'll immediately say, "I'm getting out of here!" You don't make calculations. You just do the right thing.

Fear of punishment is like a pain reflex. It keeps us from doing things that will cause us harm later on. Stealing something for example, there are many ways that fear would motivate us not to steal. Fear helps you get where you want to be. In the case of theft, to stay out of jail or, in the case of theft from your team mates, the loss of your job.

PUTTING IT ALL TOGETHER

The single most important goal in life is to have clarity, to live in reality. And of course, reality exists objectively -- outside of our own subjective perception of it; and objectivity begins in the school you attended and then on to, an opportunity like we offer.

Reality itself is very thrilling. It wakes us up and puts things into perspective. Imagine someone addicted to nicotine. How do you motivate them to stop? Show them an x-ray of tarred lungs. That fear gives them the freedom to break out of the rut and do what they know they need to.

Just as you are motivated out of personal fear, do the same for your fellow students and eventually your co-workers and this will transcend to your clients as impeccable character.

Examine a divorce. You see parents nagging their children. You see people in depression, people hurting each other. We see this all the time. So what do we do? We use the ostrich syndrome. We see but we don't see. We say: "Not me, I will never nag my children. Not me, I will never be depressed. Not me, I will never get divorced."

Do you really think you are going to be different? Not without commitment and the ability to adapt to change.

Whenever you see tragedy, learn how to avoid it. If you see someone getting mugged, call 911 and you know not to go down that street again. Whatever it is, draw a lesson. When you see a divorce, fear the possibility that this could happen to you if you allowed it. That's called living in reality.

A movie star enters the party: strutting, cocky, head raised. His or Her manner shouts: "I'm great and we all know it." The room is silent with awe. Charisma!

But this is counterfeit charisma. The movie star is totally dependent on external factors over which they have no control. Without the adoring fans, they have nothing.

The path to genuine charisma is through “humility."

Does humility really generate charisma? Don't we usually imagine the humble person as meek, hunched over, and barely noticeable?

Let's define our terms. Humility is not an inferiority complex or lack of self-esteem. Humility means "living with the reality that nothing matters except doing the right thing." The humble person is totally dedicated to the pursuit of truth. And because their self-esteem is not dependent on approval from others, they can choose the right thing even when it's not popular or politically correct.

Arrogant people, on the other hand, are mostly concerned with their own egos, their own pride, their own money. So even though they appear friendly and charming, there really manipulating things to suit their selfish needs. As far as teamwork is concerned, this will get you fired faster than a speeding bullet.

TRANSCENDING THE PETTINESS

Despite their smooth exterior, the arrogant person is, ironically, restrained and inhibited from expressing their true self. How can they "be themselves" when they are constantly preoccupied with how they appear in the eyes of others?

Humility is freedom. When you are only concerned about truth, and living by it, then you are free to express yourself in the most genuine and uninhibited way. Your natural beauty shines through. That's real charisma you will be taking to the bank, through client relations and, as important, through the relations you develop with your teammates.

With genuine self-confidence, the humble person has transcended the mundane pettiness of this world. They don't have to answer every insult. They can rise above arguments and they tend to make more money.

They know their place, and help others find their place as well. They make everyone feel important. Because with the humble person, if others excel, there's no jealousy or risk of ego crisis and best of all, they fit the mold that the Anti-Aging Clinic Assoc., Inc. is searching for.

Have you ever met such a person? They draw you in like a magnet. Wouldn't you like some of that charisma?

THE HUMAN NEED FOR MEANING

Because humility is predicated on the pursuit of truth, it fuels the basic human need for meaning.

We see that people are searching for meaning in life. Almost everyone wants to help the needy, the poor, the hungry and the homeless. And many people choose "helping" careers, like the one you have chosen as an esthetician. Money alone is not enough pleasure to carry one through a lifetime, but is helps. And for those seeking opportunity, they will certainly see the benefits the Anti-Aging Clinic Assoc., Inc., has to offer.

Unfortunately, the mundane issues of daily life often sidetrack us. Amidst all the classes, errands, meetings and e-mails, we lose clarity on what is ultimately meaningful.

One way to focus is to ask yourself: "What am I living for? Am I eating to live, or living to eat? Do I work to live, or live to work?" What is my goal? Am I achieving one step closer to my goal?

Every day you have to re-ask these questions. This will help to keep your job, relationships, and overall goals, in perspective.

So what are you living for? Do some research. See if your "life goal" is truly meaningful, or just some abstract notion.

If you hear a voice say: "There's no real objective purpose to life," check out whether that's true before you concede. Don't give up so quickly. Don't fall in with the cynics. Meaning is too vital to ignore. Just like food and water, your health and livelihood depends on it.

DO THE RIGHT THING

Doing the right thing is often difficult, because we don't always perceive it as providing a great source of pleasure.

If you think about it, you'll see there is no greater pleasure.

Material pleasures are necessary and nice, but they do not compare to the meanings of the higher pleasures of love and friendship. Imagine in the future, being offered 10 million dollars in exchange for one of your children. After rejecting the offer, you'll be overwhelmed with the precious value of that child! You may have always known his or her worth on an intellectual level, but now it becomes real to you.

Similarly, if you were given the choice of killing 1,000 innocent children, or being killed yourself, you know what you'd choose.

Even though this scenario is extreme, it reveals something deep in the psyche of every human being: Being good is so important that we're even willing to die for it. Connect with your inner self; this will help you discover the Anti-Aging Clinic Assoc., Inc's., opportunity.

WHAT IS YOUR CAUSE?

Now let's take this a step further. If you are willing to die in order to be "good," the corollary is that there is no higher goal in living than being good!

Ultimately, everyone is dying for a cause. World peace, save the whales, political reform, everyone is dedicated to something. The only question that remains, therefore, is "what is your cause?"

Try writing your own obituary. For what do you want to be remembered? This gives you objectivity and perspective and possibly something to strive for. Personally, I want to, after death, if the possibility would exist, to look back at who I really was and to discover that I have helped hundreds of thousands of people; aesthetically as well as improving health.

Once you've found a cause is so meaningful that you want to devote your life to it, and it is helping others by becoming one of our team members, then you have the answer to the more important question: What you should be living for and that life if precious. This statement is not giving any credence to the sick minds of persons who give their life so that they may destroy others. It is something like, I would give my life to protect my children and therefore, I would commit myself completely to working so that I may provide for them.

 

And when you indeed live for that cause, you will have unparalleled power, purpose and pleasure.
 

Now make a plan to implement this into your day-to-day life. Start slowly, taking one small step at a time, so not to be overwhelmed. Keep your eye on the goal and gauge your progress every day.
 

Connecting with your ultimate purpose is a big project. But there's no better use of your time and energy. Are you up to the challenge?

THE ULTIMATE IN MEANING

In the pursuit of meaningful achievement, what gives a person more impact, is  acting according to a subjective opinion (which can change at any moment), or according to an outside objective standard? Obviously, it is more meaningful to fulfill what is objectively right.

Objectivity and humility are linked ideas. Objectivity gives us the ability to rise above selfish desires and do the right thing, for the right reasons. That leads to humility.

OPEN UP TO WISDOM

Use humility to open yourself up to wisdom. Without humility we can't hear wisdom, because we are too stuck in our own subjective reality. We live in world governed by the Law of Attraction. The universe is an energy field just the same as our human body and it will gravitate toward, giving us what we focus on completely.

The bottom line: The more you rise above the need for others' approval, and develop your inner sense of self-esteem, the more charisma you will possess. And that's something no one can ever take away from you.

Do you remember the thrill of a past major achievement, comparative to hitting a home run? Getting out on the last day of school? Riding your new bicycle? You jump with joy. Fantastic!

Joy gives you energy and makes you feel great. You can achieve all kinds of things that otherwise may seem too difficult to attempt. With joy, you're not afraid to talk to the guy sitting next to you on the plane. You've got energy, buoyancy. You're alive!

Some people may have more "natural" joy. But joy can be studied and mastered like any other tool.

When you have joy, you can do anything better, stronger, faster. Your memory is better. Your drive on the golf course is better. Your sales pitch is better. Everything is better.

You're not reaching your potential unless you have joy. A pro athlete, no matter how many times he or she steps up to the plate, still needs a thrill from the pitch, the swing, the serve, the fresh spring air, the cheering crowd. Otherwise the game is flat; he or she is playing by rote, which is routine or repetition.

It's the same in life. When you have joy, you live with a different verve. Joyous people are energetic and ambitious. There's never enough time to do everything you want to do.

So whether you're studying, touring, working or relaxing, first get into a state of joy. It will give you a big boost of power and confidence.

COUNTERFEIT JOY

Remember something in past comparable to when your home team won a championship, like the World Series? The city erupted in energy and euphoria and thousands took to the streets. But in the end there was violence and destruction and arrests.

Is this what joy is supposed to produce? Did those people have joy or didn't they? What went wrong?

It wasn't joy. It was hysterical delusion.

Learn to differentiate between real joy, which generates the power to accomplish, and illusory joy, whose burst of energy fades into a let-down, like a cup of coffee will do.

Illusory joy is New Year's Eve and you celebrate all night long. "The world is perfect and you love everyone!" But there's a letdown. More than any other day, New Year's Eve has the highest rate of suicides.

People who win the hundred-million-dollar lottery jump with joy. What is their anticipation? To travel around the world, to be important; "Now I'm going to do whatever I feel like the rest of my life. I am free, a master of my fate. No more work, no more worries, no problems, no nothing. A hundred million dollars!"

Will that sensation last? You know you can have tons of money and be thoroughly miserable. One only need look at the young actors and actresses in trouble most of the time, to understand that. The lottery winner may not know what he/she wants to achieve with life. So the joy is an illusion. After a year, they are back in university, the hundred million dollar university student. Why? "Maybe philosophy will interest them..."

Joy isn't silly drunkenness, playing jokes, or making fun of people. Joy is the deep happiness that comes with fulfilling your potential.

If you know what you want out of life, then you can go after it even without a hundred million dollars. A shot of joy and you're ready to go. Do you see how this is power for living and unity for building relationships worthy of the teamwork we are structuring?

THE PLEASURE OF GROWTH

It used to be when they wanted to show euphoric joy in a movie, a man would be told he had a new son. He'd dance up and down, delirious with joy, running down the street sticking cigars into people's and horses' mouths.

Today, when the doctor tells him he has a son, he starts thinking about all the problems - late-night feedings, saving for college tuition, etc. What happened to the joy?

True joy comes from the pleasure of growth and self-actualization - when we conquer a difficult challenge, or experience a moment of clarity.

When your team wins the World Series, or when you win the lottery, the joy is a delusion. Why? Because you did not change or grow.

Joy cannot result from events, from "good things happening to you." Joy is solely the result of your reaction to life, your commitment to turning every moment into a growth experience. A new baby means you have to extend yourself at all hours of the day and night. That's not easy. But if you focus - even at 3 a.m. - you'll recognize this as real joy.

Do significant things and you will have more joy. You are making an impact on the word If you are fighting to reach your goals, or for a cause. You are heavy. You are eternal.

Find your cause, whatever it is, and work at it. Hopefully your cause will grant you opportunity that the Anti-Aging Clinic Assoc., inc. is offering to the right people.

INTERNAL, EXTERNAL

The external awakens the internal." This means it is possible to develop an emotional state by acting as if you're already in that state. The popular word for this state is the Law of Attraction.

For example, studies show that smiling when you're "sad" can improve your mood. There is a direct correlation between activating the physical muscles and your emotional state.

Do things that require joy, and you will become more joyful. For example:

·         Wear clothes that make you feel good.

·         Eat delicious food that is also good for you.

·         Sing.

·         Take a long walk in the early morning sunshine our under the stars at night.

·         Think positive thoughts.

·         Spend time with friends you enjoy being around.

·         Show kindness toward others.

·         Ponder how great it is to be alive.

·         Call your parents and thank them for giving you life.
 

Once you feel joy, channel it in a productive direction. Don't just sit back and bathe in the joy. You have the energy to go out and do something fantastic to become a catalyst for joy with your teammates. Help someone in need. Or tackle a new phase of learning you have been challenged with.

THE JOY OF POTENTIAL PLEASURE

One way to increase joy is to anticipate the pleasure coming your way; think of the opportunity that awaits you. When you anticipate something beautiful, you are more likely to see it as beautiful. And the joy of it will be more galvanizing, more exciting and more real.

"Hurrah! We're going to the circus today. We'll have a grand time!" “Hurrah” I am working with the most wonderful people on earth and I am happy when I am around them. You feel joy just by expressing the anticipation.

The implication is profound. If you constantly anticipate pleasure, you can constantly be in a state of joy. For example, today is a new day. What do you anticipate? Who will you meet today, what will you encounter, what will you achieve? "Today is going to be a great day." Use this anticipation to energize yourself.

You're going to work confident and diligent today! Don't focus on the negatives: "I'm tired ... My boss/teacher/client is impatient..." Rather, stick to the positives: "I'll accomplish something productive ... I'll earn money to pay my bills..."

Use this tool for everything. Are you going to a museum today? What do you expect to gain? Articulate the benefits and pleasures beforehand. It will give you a constant influx of joy.

STATE OF MIND

Many people don't experience joy because they take life for granted.

That is, unless they come close to death.

Someone who survives a car crash never lives the same again. Or someone who had cancer and is dismissed from the hospital with a clean bill of health; think of Lance Armstrong. He bounces around telling everyone, "Isn't life wonderful? I'm alive!"

Some people think he's crazy. No one should be that happy unless he's won a million dollars!

Appreciate what you have. What is the pleasure of being alive? Your family! Your hands! Your feet! Your eyes! Your mind! Your friends and teammates! Learn to feel that pleasure. It will be with you always, wherever you are and you will glow with positive energy, which will make positive things generate to you.

Happiness is not a happening. Happiness is a state of mind. You can have everything in the world and still be miserable. Or you can have relatively little and feel unbounded joy.

Learn the pleasure of just being, the simple joy of being alive. Then you have a basis to become more and more and more. Otherwise, it's just a sensation, a dream, an illusion. What will a new car give you? What will a million dollars give you? It will give you a way of running away from life, to dream, to be comfortable ... snug as a bug in a rug; that is not the reality.

THE NATURAL CONDITION

Joy is the natural human condition. Children have it and enjoy life in its simplest form; A carrot, a ball or even the moon. But we adults learn to be miserable. The reasons for joy haven't disappeared. It's just that the burden of daily responsibilities, which we view negatively, distracts us.

Become conscious of the beauty of every moment. Focus on your underlying natural state of joy, even amidst the mundane issues of daily life. Because if you don't have the sense that life is good, then underneath it all, you have nothing. Your teammates are going to be thinking just like you, we guarantee it, or they won’t be your teammates.

That's why the morning prayers begin with a series of blessings thanking God for the simple and obvious:

TAKE THINGS IN STRIDE

Beyond this, approach even your troubles with joy. How is this possible? Focus on them as opportunities for growth - challenges to help build character.

By definition, life has its challenges. Are those challenges going to raise your level of joy, or diminish it? If you let little things get to you, your joy will evaporate. When you find yourself worrying over a problem, ask yourself: Is it worth all the negative energy? The choice is yours; it’s called free will.

MAKE A "JOY LIST"

·        As a practical exercise, take 10 minutes and write out a list of all the times you danced with joy.

·         An outstanding athletic achievement?

·        Meeting a long-lost friend? Being discharged form the hospital after a serious illness?

·        Graduation and so on.

Now study your list and identify the common denominator of what triggers joy. By isolating the "cause," you'll have a secret weapon to snap out of a negative mood.

Examine your list to see which reflects true joy, and which reflects illusion and hysteria.

Find a way to expand your joy list. Ask others to describe their greatest joys.

WHY IS "CONSTANT JOY" AN INGREDIENT OF WISDOM?

·         Joy gives you power and energy.

·         With joy, you will knock the ball right out of the park.

·         It is natural to feel joy; it is human to overlook it.

·         Don't suffer your problems. Solve them.

·         Why wait until you're almost dead to appreciate how good life is?

The Olympic athlete stands transfixed, reviewing the jump over and over again in his mind: approach, takeoff, propulsion and landing. He is 100 percent focused. The goal is defined. The mind is pure. Time stands still.

When we totally concentrate, we achieve intellectual and emotional purity.

We've all experienced it. A moment so focused that we're actualizing full potential. In college, the final exam is tomorrow and suddenly the realization gets through. You stay awake all night, not eating or drinking. Nobody can talk to you; nothing else can enter your mind. You're 100 percent there.

Or remember the time you were sitting on a bus absorbed in a novel, and the driver had to go back and say, "Where are you going? This is the end of the line."

Has this happened to you? This is the power of concentration.

We use only a small fraction of our mental capacity. In professional sports, the athletic difference between competitors is small; winning is 90 percent mental concentration. So to achieve more in life, focus your attention. Extract your latent power and pull the switch.

GUARD YOUR THOUGHTS

It's often hard to concentrate. Our mind wanders all over the place.

You need to guard your tongue" in order to not waste words, so too, you need to guard your thoughts to steer them in the right direction.

Get in touch with your mind. It's flopping all over. Freeze the frame: What are you thinking right now?

You set the agenda, close off other compartments, and concentrate. Your mind is here, not anywhere else. If the room is too hot or too cold, it doesn't matter. You couldn't care about sports or politics or finance or anything else. You are only aware of the task at hand. When we associate you with others that are willing to do this, clients are going to hate to leave your presence and announce to the word that no other place is in existence, that each and every team member, was so special.

Remember when you first learned how to drive? You couldn't handle any distractions. If someone started chatting, you'd ask him to be quiet. It was full focus on the road ahead.

Now think of all the activities you do while driving: tuning the radio, planning your day, talking on the phone, enjoying the scenery, looking for a parking space - and driving the car, too! Of course this multi- tasking is not the smartest thing to do, it is only used as a comparison.

By controlling different tracks, you can exponentially increase your power for living.

This skill does not happen overnight. Like juggling, before you can coordinate three balls, you first need to know how to catch one.

To develop concentration, choose one thought, focus intently, and work it through. (Of course, the prerequisite to concentrate on one idea totally is that it must be interesting and important to you.)

Once you've mastered a single track, you can expand to the other 69 tracks of your mind.

CLEAR THE MIND

We are what we think. Our ideas dictate reality. If someone thinks people are out to get them, it doesn't matter whether it's true or not, they will be afraid. Or if a smart child gets the idea that they are stupid, that will become their reality.

Intellectual purity means sorting out your ideas. Distinguish which are true and which are false; which make sense and which are foolish. Then clear your mind; filter out the "garbage" so it doesn't get mixed into your brain.

Get in touch with your mind. What are you thinking? Whenever you utter a statement, ask yourself, "Do I really mean this?" A false idea repeated often enough would become your reality - even if at first you don't believe it.

Go through the process of clarifying ideas. 

Everyone wants to be good. You want to be good, too. So what is the definition of "good?" Bin Laden thinks he is doing well by ridding the world of Western imperialism; certainly he is not considering life and humanity and in so doing, he has lost touch with reality and clarity of life.

You have to get clarity, to know what you know. Make a list of 100 things that you are convinced are right. My parents love me. I have 10 fingers. The earth is round. Don't put these things in the same basket with ideas that are unclear, because that will contaminate your whole basket.

Write it all down and sort it out. Ask yourself: "How do I know that my parents love me? Because I have evidence from the way they treat me. You get the idea.

Finally, interact with ideas as if they are real. Once you decide that a certain idea is correct, translate it into a concrete idea. For example, take the feeling: "I don't want to waste time," and turn it into the idea: "Life is precious." The next step is to take it from your mind and put it into action. To ignore it and go on is living a schizophrenic life.

EMOTIONAL PURITY

We've all seen a football team running onto the field after a pep talk. They are going berserk. Get out of the way! Or the sales manager gives his Monday morning pep talk: "We're going to hit the phones and sell 100 policies today! If you're the poor guy who gets called first, you will buy five policies before you know what hit you.

Just as you need purity of mind, you also need purity of heart - "one emotion at a time. Different emotions can invade at the wrong time, and if you're not clear, you'll get pulled in too many directions.

Being pulled in opposite directions causes paralysis. There's an old saying that "the donkey died of starvation because he couldn't decide between two bales of hay, which he would eat.

Before entering a situation, decide in advance which emotion you want to "ride." If you're going to a wedding and it's important to have joy, don't drift to extraneous topics like: How will they support themselves? How does my hair look? Will I have the salmon or the beef? Instead, focus on the singular emotion and tell yourself, "I'm going to be joyful - and no one's going to stop me!"

When you wake up in the morning, turn on that switch. Which emotion are you riding today? Joy! When you first open your eyes, and decide that life is good and it's going to be a great day. No headaches, no problems, no troubles. Joy is the keynote for your day.

Even if you don't feel cheerful, fake it. Emotional purity is an act of discipline. You are the master of your mind. Intensify your will and pull your mind where you want it to be. Before long, your internal reality will catch up with your external actions.

BLOCK IT OUT

Get a hold of crippling negative emotions and block them out.

If you feel a negative emotion, realize that you have the ability to "let go" and feel upbeat in a moment. It's only wounded pride that says, "I have to pout a while longer before I can get over this one." The negative energy is hurting no one but yourself. You have the power of free will to lift yourself out of it.

This is especially important in times of confusion and anxiety. You have a flight to catch, but the taxi arrives late and then you're caught in traffic. Don't sit there aggravated, seething and kicking yourself. It will ruin your day. Instead, switch to positive thoughts: Okay, so I missed the plane. But I can still enjoy the view! Of course, if there's something to do about it, do it. But otherwise, block it out.

Imagine a surgeon who had an argument with his wife this morning. He's aggravated, and now he's going to operate. How can he possibly concentrate? He's a trained professional. He'll block it out.

Be ruthless in your focus. It's not always bad to be ruthless. If the surgeon doesn't ruthlessly focus, he'll endanger the patient.

The goal, of course, is not to be devoid of emotions, but to control them and apply them appropriately.

Some people abuse the tool of emotional block when it comes to things they don't want to deal with. Talk to someone about nuclear war. There's no such threat. It can't be. It's too upsetting. Leave me alone. Or try to convince a racist of the beauty of every human being. They don't hear you. They block you out. They're not interested in the subject, finished!

How do you avoid this trap? Be interested in truth, wherever it will lead. If you find truth and it conflicts with your prior beliefs, dissolve your prejudices. Be relentless in the pursuit of truth. I have to change my whole life? Okay, I am not afraid.

MULTIPLE EMOTIONS

Just as we have 70 tracks of intellect, we also have 70 tracks of emotions. It is possible to feel both happy and sad at the same time.

Imagine you got a great promotion, which is possible in opportunities we offer, but it means relocating to another city. That's mixed emotions. Or a close relative dies and leaves you a large sum of money. There is a whole array of emotions storming through you at one time.

In order to master these emotions, you have to take one at a time.

Always ask yourself, "What am I feeling now? Anxious? Happy? Both?"

Once you identify your emotion, you can control the switch. If you're all fired up at work, but then an urgent call comes from your spouse, you won't say, "One minute, I've got to close this deal first." You will stop and switch around.

PUTTING IT ALL TOGETHER

Once you've developed the twin tools of intellectual and emotional purity, the next step is integrated purity? - Putting it all together.

Of course, stay away from counterproductive activities. You can't party all night and meditate in the morning. It's the antithesis of purity.

Don't contaminate your goal. Focusing on what you want is the first step in getting what you want. "Confused equals diffused." If you don't know where you're going, you'll never get there. We offer direction and opportunity to those who can remain focused.

Wishy-washiness often comes from not being clear about personal goals. Know your goals and priorities at all times, and have a plan or accept a plan, as to how to reach them. Our plan may fit you into the Anti-Aging Clinic Assoc. Inc's., opportunity that is being offered to the best of the best.

The most important thing is to know what you're living for - i.e. "The Main Goal." If you are ready to die for something like your family members, that is pretty heavy. You want to be a good man or woman? Every human being is ready to die to be good.

Once you have a goal, you need to get psyched up and focused. Everyone needs a cheerleader, and there is no better (or more readily available) cheerleader than yourself and your teammates. Try giving yourself a pep talk like a football coach: "I'm going to accomplish today. I'm going to concentrate. I'm going to search for truth and nothing will stop me. The next person who gives me a piece of wisdom, I'm going to listen, appreciate it, think about it, and apply it."

Make your goals real. You only have a short time to achieve everything you want in life. Start now and give it all you've got.

WHY IS "TOTAL CONCENTRATION" A WAY TO WISDOM?

·         It Interrupts the daydreaming process.

·         You can apply yourself to the task with single-minded dedication.

·         You can incorporate what you've studied into your behavior.

·         You can contemplate one idea at a time and clarify it to the fullest extent.

·         You can take one emotion and experience it to the fullest.

·         You can link your emotions to your goals.

·         Your success depends largely on the intensity of ambition.

·         You can take one emotion and pump it up.

·         You are the master of your mind. You can train it to focus.

·         You can block out insanity.

·         You can mean what you say and say what you mean.

LEARN ABOUT LIFE

Human beings like independence. We hate to admit that we need others. Most people would rather learn from their own mistakes, than learn from others. We imagine we'll just "figure it all out" as we go along, this is from a lack of teamwork skills. "I know I'm smart. I can work it out." This is the total absence of teamwork and a sign of a mediocre employee; certainly not a Leader and certainly no one we are interested in.

Life is too short for this. We're bound to make mistakes. So why add those we could otherwise prevent? As the saying goes: "A fool learns from his own mistakes, a wise person learns from the mistakes of others."

But we see people doing this all the time. College students travel across Europe "to learn about life." They may meet a lot of people walking down the street, but there are much more efficient ways to learn about life. If you're serious, you'll plan to get someone to teach you. The Anti-Aging Clinic Assoc., Inc., is searching for you specifically.

Imagine you could go back in time 10-years and teach yourself an important lesson.

Would you have listened? Would it be a mistake not to listen?

Now go talk to someone 10-years older. Ask him or her: "Did you ever make a mistake?" They certainly have learned something about life. Does that make sense?

Realize that you have a built-in resource of wisdom: your teachers, your teammates and your parents. As Mark Twain used to say, "When I went to college, my father was a fool. When I came back four years later, I was amazed at how much wiser he'd become!"

Do you want to give your parents some pleasure? Ask them for advice on an important issue - marriage, career, they are full of experience. And on the wisdom scale, you can achieve what it might take 20 years on your own.

As a way to get started in this process, think about the following question: "If I could meet anyone alive today, who would it be, and what would I ask?" A sign of true genius is knowing the right questions. For example, can you imagine the police releasing a suspect without questions?

Now work backwards and find someone who can help approximate your ultimate goal. And don't stop pursuing wisdom until you find it.

ASSIST THE WISE PERSON

If the president of the United States came to visit, you'd get up, bring him a drink, and be ready to help him in any way possible. You'd ask for advice and listen attentively. (Even if you voted against him - He is still the president of the United States and you would respect that!)

We should do the same for a wise person. Pay attention to them. Serving a wise person is even greater than learning - from any lecture or textbook.

Be an apprentice. Follow your mentor around. Observe every nuance. You can read all about it in a textbook, but the best education is to watch an expert work, to become an expert yourself.

Serving your mentor makes you closer to them. You will be alert and eager to hear their advice. You'll have more respect for their wisdom. You'll understand what makes your mentor/s a cut above the rest.

Above all, you will learn and you will grow.

BE PREPARED TO ABSORB WISDOM

If you learned everything from everyone, you'd be one of the wisest people in the world. But that's not practical, so you have to prioritize your "wisdom needs."

THE LOYALTY FACTOR

Human beings tend to hold onto what we "know" and defend our position. Wisdom requires change, moving out of our comfort zone. Too often we avoid the pain and drop the wisdom altogether. You might be one of those who say, I was taught this way and this is the only way I am going to do it.

Resist this temptation. Find people who will challenge you and encourage you to become great. Don't choose those who allow you to maintain your weaknesses and prejudices. Persons like that truly feel inferior and they want to see you fail.

Be loyal, then you're less prone to shop around every time they suggest something you don't like. By shopping, you'll end up with someone who is less challenging to your prejudices. If you have a good professional, you rely on their opinion. If you have good mentors, stick with them. Don't shop around for answers that you would rather have.

The power of having mentors is that the message eventually penetrates your wall of defense. You will overcome some bad mistakes.

Furthermore, we humans are very subjective about ourselves. We twist reality and refuse to see ourselves. A mentor gives us objective feedback. They reduce our capacity to rationalize our mistakes; I did that but it is ok, because. They help us to feel accountable and think twice before we act. "What would my mentor say if I did this?" If you can't come up with a good answer, don't do it.

WHY IS "HONORING THE WISE PERSON" A WAY TO WISDOM?

·         To learn about life, you need a mentor, someone to guide you on a rational and consistent path.

·         Human beings are subjective. We need someone to help give us objectivity.

·         Independence is human nature, but if you don't moderate it, it will stand in the way of your growth.

·         Be a student of truth. The most destructive disease is ignorance - not being connected with reality.

·         Get in touch with those who understand life and pump them for information.

·         Go find a teacher now.

We have a marketing strategy that begins with an incentive-based system. You are invited to attend a seminar. Seminars are planed according to applicant interest and the admission is $175 and requires 15 days pre-paid registration. CALL FOR DATES AND TIMES.

The topic will be our opportunity and our search for persons who will become distributor teams of our “Aging Younger” Clinics to be developed across the US market.

Contact David Tippie the director of the Anti-Aging Clinic Association Inc., at: 954-742-4430 or by mail at 7200 West Commercial Blvd., Suite 209, Lauderhill Florida 33319.

Some of the seminar content will be:

To examine the question “Should there be an Anti-Aging Clinic in your town”, we review some information. In short, you have the opportunity to be able to offer the proper treatments and professional products to all in your hometown that will help your clients Age Younger. 

There are doctors and businesses no doubt in each town that offer part of the concept, such as: Plastic Surgeons and Dermatologists, who offer additional aesthetic non-invasive treatments, such as microdermabrasion, as well as some type of skincare products and facial treatments.  

Additional competition would be day Spas that have no basic concept other than to make their clients feel good and certainly nothing results oriented or age reversing or body balancing.

Some Spas offer cellulite treatments with little, or no results, because there is no complete program necessary to make the treatments a success. Some of them also offer facials, but often with the use of inferior grade products that actually can damage the skin; still others offer massage that in most cases is just a feel good thing, and a few more, offer microdermabrasion.  None of these facilities offer a complete concept that includes:

Very few if any places, including Derms and Plastics, will have measuring analysis and treatment equipment that is truly on the cutting edge of natural health, such as Lymphatic drainage or biofeedback for example, to truly enhance the concept.

Parties Interested in becoming an Aging Younger distributor teams in their hometown will be trained in all operations, techniques, products and their applications. To be a distributor of an Aging Younger Clinic in your area with our complete support, interested parties will receive training at our training center in Florida; we advertise for your client base; we develop a complete operating business with you.

A Distributor team will have a turnkey business; one in which no prior business experience is required; a business that has great dignity with proven results.

The treatments taught, will be performed by licensed estheticians from the area, or they will transfer to the area.

Our team of professionals provide each of our distributor teams a better and unique advantage, that allows them to offer to an ever-growing population, who all want what you will be able to offer with proven results and that is: “TO AGE YOUNGER”. 

There are jobs being eliminated from the top down in major corporations announced weekly in the media. If you could be in one of these numbers, think of being a distributor in your hometown. The ultimate time for locating Distributors for the Aging Younger Clinics across the US is now and can be further exemplified by the choices many doctors are making today. Doctors of varied professions are adding a Hodgepodge of skincare treatments and products that have no real science behind them; simply to try and cash in the nations fastest growing industry. Some are leaving their practice and entering this industry, because they recognize the benefits for their patients and their desire to escape the managed care grip of insurance companies.
