“What makes people rich or poor is their context”  ~Robert Kiyosaki, author of the #1 bestseller, Rich Dad, Poor Dad

NOT WHERE YOU WANT TO BE?  DISCOVER CLEARING!

Many factors are involved in successfully attaining goals and getting where you want to go. What one individual is struggling with is a piece of cake for another. If you feel you are not making progress with your goals, or in life in general, look into Clearing. I recommend the Clearing technology because I see it as the fastest and most direct way to expand your contexts.

ARE YOU IN CONTROL OR ON AUTOMATIC PILOT?

A context is simply a viewpoint, an opinion, the way you look at something. In life, contexts are created that sometimes set up unworkable paradigms. Examples: I never have enough money, Life is hard, People can’t be trusted, Men are too logical, Women are too emotional. Having contexts such as these, even if you don’t know you have them, are comparable to being on automatic pilot - the “program” or context is set, and the content follows automatically. When the programming kicks in, at that point you are just along for the ride.

YOUR CONTEXT DETERMINES YOUR CONTENT

Have you ever tried to change a behavior pattern or break a habit by reading a book, saying affirmations, or giving yourself pep talks? Despite good advice, expert coaching, and your sincere commitment and good intentions, did you still fail to accomplish the changes you wanted?

Well, the answer is amazingly simple. Contexts that were programmed in when you weren't aware of it, such as during times of stress or duress, can’t easily be overcome, and until cleared, they can continue their hold on you and literally RUN your life. Life can be very difficult when you have programming that contradicts precisely what you are trying to achieve.

ANYTHING YOU CAN UNDERSTAND YOU CAN RESOLVE!

Another aspect of Clearing focuses on people who might be troubling you in some way. This is handled with simple processes which help you better understand what is happening; as a result, your context expands and there’s space for your relationships to heal. Any challenge you fully understand you can solve easily and quickly!

Clearing not only helps you to convert self-defeating contexts to successful ones; it also focuses on the positive and expands the workable contexts you already have, allowing you to more successfully use all your resources, to help you have what you want in your life.

YOU ARE A POWERFUL BEING WITH INFINITE POTENTIAL

The context of Clearing itself is that you are a powerful Being with infinite potential. Clearing is not therapy or counseling. It is a path to expand your contexts so you can move to higher and higher levels of awareness, power and success.

You can get off to a quick, easy start by reading Understanding Life by Lawrence West, hard copy or ebook. Ebook also available en Español, Entendiendo la Vida. Get it HERE

THE BOTTOM LINE IS THIS...

Know who you are. Love who you are. Trust what you know. That is a powerful context for achieving what you want in Life!]]> http://theclearingsight.com/news-highlights/expand-your-context-improve-your-content/feed/ 0 TWO GAMES – Baseball & Financial Education http://theclearingsight.com/news-highlights/two-games-baseball-financial-education/ http://theclearingsight.com/news-highlights/two-games-baseball-financial-education/#comments Thu, 05 Feb 2009 15:56:05 +0000 Jayne Johnson http://theclearingsight.com/blog/?p=322 FIRST, BASEBALL

I am a baseball fan. Have been all my life. I used to watch the games with my Dad on a tiny RCA television way back in the day. That was the day when both the Brooklyn Dodgers and New York Giants were both still located in New York!]]>

FIRST, BASEBALL

I am a baseball fan. Have been all my life. I used to watch the games with my Dad on a tiny RCA television way back in the day. That was the day when both the Brooklyn Dodgers and New York Giants were both still located in New York! Both teams soon moved out West, as did our family. Pure coincidence, I assure you! In the summer of 1962 I had the fantastic opportunity to go to a baseball game with my friend Betty Jo. Her Dad drove us up to L.A., to Chavez Ravine, aka Dodger Stadium. We watched the Los Angeles Dodgers play the San Francisco Giants and what luck! Sandy Koufax, my hero, was pitching that day. The Dodgers won 11-2. How do I remember the score? Have no idea! All I can say is that it was an historic experience for me.

I loved the Dodgers and listened to the games on my little transistor radio every night. I was supposed to be sleeping... school the next day and all... but I listened to every game. I did that for 2 or 3 years, in the early sixties. I knew all the players' names and their jersey numbers. They were all my heroes but Sandy Koufax was my favorite. I loved Vin Scully too. He was the announcer for the Dodgers, and he was the best. He holds the record for the longest consecutive service of any current major league broadcaster for one team. Vin Scully is now 81 years old and still announcing for the Dodgers!

Fast forward to the late sixties and there I am watching a brand new Major League Baseball team, the San Diego Padres. It was May 1969, and I'll always remember it. It was my first date with Ted, a fellow baseball fan and oh, as it turned out, my soon-to-be husband! I was so happy to be able to share the joy of baseball with someone who loved it as much as I did. It was the first of many games we attended, and we had great seats too - right behind home plate. That's because Ted's Dad had season tickets, so you see, my “baseball family tree,” which includes both my kids too, is a pretty big tree. When I saw the movie “Bull Durham” (1988) with Kevin Costner, Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins, I loved it. At the beginning of the movie when Susan's character Annie describes why she loves the game, I could relate.

A BASEBALL MOVIE ABOUT HARD FINANCIAL TIMES AND FORECLOSURE

Though “Bull Durham” was entertaining, Kevin Costner's next movie was right up my alley: “Field of Dreams” (1989), a movie that can legitimately be described as one of the most perfect combinations of spirituality and sports ever made. Ironically, it's also a movie about facing hard financial times and foreclosure! In this one video clip we have both sides of the story. Costner's character Ray is being told by his brother-in-law: “Ray, when the bank opens in the morning, they will foreclose. You're broke, Ray. You sell now or you lose everything.” In the same clip we have James Earl Jones' character's incredible oration on baseball and how following your dreams will lead to prosperity.

Fast forward again, this time to Fall 2001. Best-selling author Robert Kiyosaki had just finished presenting a 3-day seminar up at the Carefree Resort, just north of Phoenix, Arizona. A group of us, including Robert & his wife Kim, were celebrating at a Mexican Restaurant after the seminar. The TV was on and blasting full force. No one in the whole restaurant was eating. No one was doing anything except watching the most miraculous series of events unfold. The Arizona Diamondbacks were playing the New York Yankees, THE dynasty in Major League Baseball, in the seventh and final game of the World Series. The two teams were tied at 3 games each so whichever team won this game won the 2001 World Series. Amazing game, won in the 9th inning by the D'backs in spectacular fashion. Read about it. Well, that's the short version of the part of my life called baseball. If you asked me WHY I love it so much, I swear to you, I could not tell you. I don't know why. I just do.

SANDY KOUFAX AND OTHERS SWINDLED BY MADOFF

So all that said, it was sad to see the headline this morning on espn.com - an article about Sandy Koufax and other baseball folks being among those swindled by Bernard Madoff. The damage this man has done reaches far and wide. It's astounding. But this post is no comment on Sandy Koufax or anyone else. My compassion goes out to ALL who've lost their money. There are people who have lost their entire fortunes. They went from being wealthy to scrambling for a dime, some trying to get a job as a greeter at Wal•Mart. An enormous amount of trust was placed in this man Madoff, by a multitude of people, many of whom were business-savvy. Perhaps there's only so much you can do but I still feel that raising one's financial IQ is one of the best forms of insurance.

THE FINANCIAL EDUCATION GAME AND HOW TO WIN IT!

Coincidentally, the same morning I see the headline about Sandy Koufax, I received an email from the Rich Dad Company about Robert Kiyosaki's FREE online book, Conspiracy of the Rich - The 8 New Rules of Money. Read Chapter 1

I understand that there are no guarantees in this world. But the best insurance in the financial arena is financial education, in my opinion. Doesn't mean everything is going to be perfect all the time, but to put the odds squarely in your favor, financial education is the way to go. Check out Chapter 1 of Conspiracy of the Rich -The 8 New Rules of Money. Robert Kiyosaki is the best-selling author of Rich Dad, Poor Dad, a book that has been on the NY Times Business Best Seller List for over 6 years. Robert has written many other books, all of which have valuable information to offer.

“THE NEW WEALTH IS KNOWLEDGE -- IT ALWAYS HAS BEEN KNOWLEDGE”

Two insightful quotes from Robert: • “Learning is actively seeking new information” • “The new wealth is knowledge -- it always has been knowledge.” Whether you study Robert Kiyosaki and Kim Kiyosaki, or Donald Trump, or Warren Buffet, someone else, or ALL of them, the point is, protect your family and your future by continuing to increase your financial education.

This book is very special! It's co-authored by Robert's sister, Venerable Tenzin Kacho, the only woman ordained by His Holiness the Dalai Lama. The book is entitled “Rich Brother, Rich Sister. Two Different Paths to God, Money and Happiness.” Personally I think it's going to be one of the most popular books in the Rich Dad series. And that is saying something. I believe Rich Dad, Poor Dad has been on the New York Times business best-seller list for over 6 years! The book is available in stores now, as well as the Rich Brother Rich Sister website.

“What makes people rich or poor is their context”  ~Robert Kiyosaki, author of the #1 bestseller, Rich Dad, Poor Dad

NOT WHERE YOU WANT TO BE?  DISCOVER CLEARING!

Many factors are involved in successfully attaining goals and getting where you want to go. What one individual is struggling with is a piece of cake for another. If you feel you are not making progress with your goals, or in life in general, look into Clearing. I recommend the Clearing technology because I see it as the fastest and most direct way to expand your contexts.

ARE YOU IN CONTROL OR ON AUTOMATIC PILOT?

A context is simply a viewpoint, an opinion, the way you look at something. In life, contexts are created that sometimes set up unworkable paradigms. Examples: I never have enough money, Life is hard, People can’t be trusted, Men are too logical, Women are too emotional. Having contexts such as these, even if you don’t know you have them, are comparable to being on automatic pilot - the “program” or context is set, and the content follows automatically. When the programming kicks in, at that point you are just along for the ride.

YOUR CONTEXT DETERMINES YOUR CONTENT

Have you ever tried to change a behavior pattern or break a habit by reading a book, saying affirmations, or giving yourself pep talks? Despite good advice, expert coaching, and your sincere commitment and good intentions, did you still fail to accomplish the changes you wanted?

Well, the answer is amazingly simple. Contexts that were programmed in when you weren't aware of it, such as during times of stress or duress, can’t easily be overcome, and until cleared, they can continue their hold on you and literally RUN your life. Life can be very difficult when you have programming that contradicts precisely what you are trying to achieve.

ANYTHING YOU CAN UNDERSTAND YOU CAN RESOLVE!

Another aspect of Clearing focuses on people who might be troubling you in some way. This is handled with simple processes which help you better understand what is happening; as a result, your context expands and there’s space for your relationships to heal. Any challenge you fully understand you can solve easily and quickly!

Clearing not only helps you to convert self-defeating contexts to successful ones; it also focuses on the positive and expands the workable contexts you already have, allowing you to more successfully use all your resources, to help you have what you want in your life.

YOU ARE A POWERFUL BEING WITH INFINITE POTENTIAL

The context of Clearing itself is that you are a powerful Being with infinite potential. Clearing is not therapy or counseling. It is a path to expand your contexts so you can move to higher and higher levels of awareness, power and success.

You can get off to a quick, easy start by reading Understanding Life by Lawrence West, hard copy or ebook. Ebook also available en Español, Entendiendo la Vida. Get it HERE

THE BOTTOM LINE IS THIS...

Know who you are. Love who you are. Trust what you know. That is a powerful context for achieving what you want in Life!]]> http://theclearingsight.com/news-highlights/expand-your-context-improve-your-content/feed/ 0 The Clearing Sight » Articles of Interest http://theclearingsight.com Expand Your Context - Improve Your Content!

NOT WHERE YOU WANT TO BE?  DISCOVER CLEARING!

Many factors are involved in successfully attaining goals and getting where you want to go. What one individual is struggling with is a piece of cake for another. If you feel you are not making progress with your goals, or in life in general, look into Clearing. I recommend the Clearing technology because I see it as the fastest and most direct way to expand your contexts.

ARE YOU IN CONTROL OR ON AUTOMATIC PILOT?

A context is simply a viewpoint, an opinion, the way you look at something. In life, contexts are created that sometimes set up unworkable paradigms. Examples: I never have enough money, Life is hard, People can’t be trusted, Men are too logical, Women are too emotional. Having contexts such as these, even if you don’t know you have them, are comparable to being on automatic pilot - the “program” or context is set, and the content follows automatically. When the programming kicks in, at that point you are just along for the ride.

YOUR CONTEXT DETERMINES YOUR CONTENT

Have you ever tried to change a behavior pattern or break a habit by reading a book, saying affirmations, or giving yourself pep talks? Despite good advice, expert coaching, and your sincere commitment and good intentions, did you still fail to accomplish the changes you wanted?

Well, the answer is amazingly simple. Contexts that were programmed in when you weren't aware of it, such as during times of stress or duress, can’t easily be overcome, and until cleared, they can continue their hold on you and literally RUN your life. Life can be very difficult when you have programming that contradicts precisely what you are trying to achieve.

ANYTHING YOU CAN UNDERSTAND YOU CAN RESOLVE!

Another aspect of Clearing focuses on people who might be troubling you in some way. This is handled with simple processes which help you better understand what is happening; as a result, your context expands and there’s space for your relationships to heal. Any challenge you fully understand you can solve easily and quickly!

Clearing not only helps you to convert self-defeating contexts to successful ones; it also focuses on the positive and expands the workable contexts you already have, allowing you to more successfully use all your resources, to help you have what you want in your life.

YOU ARE A POWERFUL BEING WITH INFINITE POTENTIAL

The context of Clearing itself is that you are a powerful Being with infinite potential. Clearing is not therapy or counseling. It is a path to expand your contexts so you can move to higher and higher levels of awareness, power and success.

You can get off to a quick, easy start by reading Understanding Life by Lawrence West, hard copy or ebook. Ebook also available en Español, Entendiendo la Vida. Get it HERE

THE BOTTOM LINE IS THIS...

Know who you are. Love who you are. Trust what you know. That is a powerful context for achieving what you want in Life!]]> http://theclearingsight.com/news-highlights/expand-your-context-improve-your-content/feed/ 0 TWO GAMES – Baseball & Financial Education http://theclearingsight.com/news-highlights/two-games-baseball-financial-education/ http://theclearingsight.com/news-highlights/two-games-baseball-financial-education/#comments Thu, 05 Feb 2009 15:56:05 +0000 Jayne Johnson http://theclearingsight.com/blog/?p=322 FIRST, BASEBALL

I am a baseball fan. Have been all my life. I used to watch the games with my Dad on a tiny RCA television way back in the day. That was the day when both the Brooklyn Dodgers and New York Giants were both still located in New York!]]>

FIRST, BASEBALL

I am a baseball fan. Have been all my life. I used to watch the games with my Dad on a tiny RCA television way back in the day. That was the day when both the Brooklyn Dodgers and New York Giants were both still located in New York! Both teams soon moved out West, as did our family. Pure coincidence, I assure you! In the summer of 1962 I had the fantastic opportunity to go to a baseball game with my friend Betty Jo. Her Dad drove us up to L.A., to Chavez Ravine, aka Dodger Stadium. We watched the Los Angeles Dodgers play the San Francisco Giants and what luck! Sandy Koufax, my hero, was pitching that day. The Dodgers won 11-2. How do I remember the score? Have no idea! All I can say is that it was an historic experience for me.

I loved the Dodgers and listened to the games on my little transistor radio every night. I was supposed to be sleeping... school the next day and all... but I listened to every game. I did that for 2 or 3 years, in the early sixties. I knew all the players' names and their jersey numbers. They were all my heroes but Sandy Koufax was my favorite. I loved Vin Scully too. He was the announcer for the Dodgers, and he was the best. He holds the record for the longest consecutive service of any current major league broadcaster for one team. Vin Scully is now 81 years old and still announcing for the Dodgers!

Fast forward to the late sixties and there I am watching a brand new Major League Baseball team, the San Diego Padres. It was May 1969, and I'll always remember it. It was my first date with Ted, a fellow baseball fan and oh, as it turned out, my soon-to-be husband! I was so happy to be able to share the joy of baseball with someone who loved it as much as I did. It was the first of many games we attended, and we had great seats too - right behind home plate. That's because Ted's Dad had season tickets, so you see, my “baseball family tree,” which includes both my kids too, is a pretty big tree. When I saw the movie “Bull Durham” (1988) with Kevin Costner, Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins, I loved it. At the beginning of the movie when Susan's character Annie describes why she loves the game, I could relate.

A BASEBALL MOVIE ABOUT HARD FINANCIAL TIMES AND FORECLOSURE

Though “Bull Durham” was entertaining, Kevin Costner's next movie was right up my alley: “Field of Dreams” (1989), a movie that can legitimately be described as one of the most perfect combinations of spirituality and sports ever made. Ironically, it's also a movie about facing hard financial times and foreclosure! In this one video clip we have both sides of the story. Costner's character Ray is being told by his brother-in-law: “Ray, when the bank opens in the morning, they will foreclose. You're broke, Ray. You sell now or you lose everything.” In the same clip we have James Earl Jones' character's incredible oration on baseball and how following your dreams will lead to prosperity.

Fast forward again, this time to Fall 2001. Best-selling author Robert Kiyosaki had just finished presenting a 3-day seminar up at the Carefree Resort, just north of Phoenix, Arizona. A group of us, including Robert & his wife Kim, were celebrating at a Mexican Restaurant after the seminar. The TV was on and blasting full force. No one in the whole restaurant was eating. No one was doing anything except watching the most miraculous series of events unfold. The Arizona Diamondbacks were playing the New York Yankees, THE dynasty in Major League Baseball, in the seventh and final game of the World Series. The two teams were tied at 3 games each so whichever team won this game won the 2001 World Series. Amazing game, won in the 9th inning by the D'backs in spectacular fashion. Read about it. Well, that's the short version of the part of my life called baseball. If you asked me WHY I love it so much, I swear to you, I could not tell you. I don't know why. I just do.

SANDY KOUFAX AND OTHERS SWINDLED BY MADOFF

So all that said, it was sad to see the headline this morning on espn.com - an article about Sandy Koufax and other baseball folks being among those swindled by Bernard Madoff. The damage this man has done reaches far and wide. It's astounding. But this post is no comment on Sandy Koufax or anyone else. My compassion goes out to ALL who've lost their money. There are people who have lost their entire fortunes. They went from being wealthy to scrambling for a dime, some trying to get a job as a greeter at Wal•Mart. An enormous amount of trust was placed in this man Madoff, by a multitude of people, many of whom were business-savvy. Perhaps there's only so much you can do but I still feel that raising one's financial IQ is one of the best forms of insurance.

THE FINANCIAL EDUCATION GAME AND HOW TO WIN IT!

Coincidentally, the same morning I see the headline about Sandy Koufax, I received an email from the Rich Dad Company about Robert Kiyosaki's FREE online book, Conspiracy of the Rich - The 8 New Rules of Money. Read Chapter 1

I understand that there are no guarantees in this world. But the best insurance in the financial arena is financial education, in my opinion. Doesn't mean everything is going to be perfect all the time, but to put the odds squarely in your favor, financial education is the way to go. Check out Chapter 1 of Conspiracy of the Rich -The 8 New Rules of Money. Robert Kiyosaki is the best-selling author of Rich Dad, Poor Dad, a book that has been on the NY Times Business Best Seller List for over 6 years. Robert has written many other books, all of which have valuable information to offer.

“THE NEW WEALTH IS KNOWLEDGE -- IT ALWAYS HAS BEEN KNOWLEDGE”

Two insightful quotes from Robert: • “Learning is actively seeking new information” • “The new wealth is knowledge -- it always has been knowledge.” Whether you study Robert Kiyosaki and Kim Kiyosaki, or Donald Trump, or Warren Buffet, someone else, or ALL of them, the point is, protect your family and your future by continuing to increase your financial education.

“What makes people rich or poor is their context”  ~Robert Kiyosaki, author of the #1 bestseller, Rich Dad, Poor Dad

NOT WHERE YOU WANT TO BE?  DISCOVER CLEARING!

Many factors are involved in successfully attaining goals and getting where you want to go. What one individual is struggling with is a piece of cake for another. If you feel you are not making progress with your goals, or in life in general, look into Clearing. I recommend the Clearing technology because I see it as the fastest and most direct way to expand your contexts.

ARE YOU IN CONTROL OR ON AUTOMATIC PILOT?

A context is simply a viewpoint, an opinion, the way you look at something. In life, contexts are created that sometimes set up unworkable paradigms. Examples: I never have enough money, Life is hard, People can’t be trusted, Men are too logical, Women are too emotional. Having contexts such as these, even if you don’t know you have them, are comparable to being on automatic pilot - the “program” or context is set, and the content follows automatically. When the programming kicks in, at that point you are just along for the ride.

YOUR CONTEXT DETERMINES YOUR CONTENT

Have you ever tried to change a behavior pattern or break a habit by reading a book, saying affirmations, or giving yourself pep talks? Despite good advice, expert coaching, and your sincere commitment and good intentions, did you still fail to accomplish the changes you wanted?

Well, the answer is amazingly simple. Contexts that were programmed in when you weren't aware of it, such as during times of stress or duress, can’t easily be overcome, and until cleared, they can continue their hold on you and literally RUN your life. Life can be very difficult when you have programming that contradicts precisely what you are trying to achieve.

ANYTHING YOU CAN UNDERSTAND YOU CAN RESOLVE!

Another aspect of Clearing focuses on people who might be troubling you in some way. This is handled with simple processes which help you better understand what is happening; as a result, your context expands and there’s space for your relationships to heal. Any challenge you fully understand you can solve easily and quickly!

Clearing not only helps you to convert self-defeating contexts to successful ones; it also focuses on the positive and expands the workable contexts you already have, allowing you to more successfully use all your resources, to help you have what you want in your life.

YOU ARE A POWERFUL BEING WITH INFINITE POTENTIAL

The context of Clearing itself is that you are a powerful Being with infinite potential. Clearing is not therapy or counseling. It is a path to expand your contexts so you can move to higher and higher levels of awareness, power and success.

You can get off to a quick, easy start by reading Understanding Life by Lawrence West, hard copy or ebook. Ebook also available en Español, Entendiendo la Vida. Get it HERE

THE BOTTOM LINE IS THIS...

Know who you are. Love who you are. Trust what you know. That is a powerful context for achieving what you want in Life!]]> http://theclearingsight.com/news-highlights/expand-your-context-improve-your-content/feed/ 0 TWO GAMES – Baseball & Financial Education http://theclearingsight.com/news-highlights/two-games-baseball-financial-education/ http://theclearingsight.com/news-highlights/two-games-baseball-financial-education/#comments Thu, 05 Feb 2009 15:56:05 +0000 Jayne Johnson http://theclearingsight.com/blog/?p=322 FIRST, BASEBALL

I am a baseball fan. Have been all my life. I used to watch the games with my Dad on a tiny RCA television way back in the day. That was the day when both the Brooklyn Dodgers and New York Giants were both still located in New York!]]>

FIRST, BASEBALL

I am a baseball fan. Have been all my life. I used to watch the games with my Dad on a tiny RCA television way back in the day. That was the day when both the Brooklyn Dodgers and New York Giants were both still located in New York! Both teams soon moved out West, as did our family. Pure coincidence, I assure you! In the summer of 1962 I had the fantastic opportunity to go to a baseball game with my friend Betty Jo. Her Dad drove us up to L.A., to Chavez Ravine, aka Dodger Stadium. We watched the Los Angeles Dodgers play the San Francisco Giants and what luck! Sandy Koufax, my hero, was pitching that day. The Dodgers won 11-2. How do I remember the score? Have no idea! All I can say is that it was an historic experience for me.

I loved the Dodgers and listened to the games on my little transistor radio every night. I was supposed to be sleeping... school the next day and all... but I listened to every game. I did that for 2 or 3 years, in the early sixties. I knew all the players' names and their jersey numbers. They were all my heroes but Sandy Koufax was my favorite. I loved Vin Scully too. He was the announcer for the Dodgers, and he was the best. He holds the record for the longest consecutive service of any current major league broadcaster for one team. Vin Scully is now 81 years old and still announcing for the Dodgers!

Fast forward to the late sixties and there I am watching a brand new Major League Baseball team, the San Diego Padres. It was May 1969, and I'll always remember it. It was my first date with Ted, a fellow baseball fan and oh, as it turned out, my soon-to-be husband! I was so happy to be able to share the joy of baseball with someone who loved it as much as I did. It was the first of many games we attended, and we had great seats too - right behind home plate. That's because Ted's Dad had season tickets, so you see, my “baseball family tree,” which includes both my kids too, is a pretty big tree. When I saw the movie “Bull Durham” (1988) with Kevin Costner, Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins, I loved it. At the beginning of the movie when Susan's character Annie describes why she loves the game, I could relate.

A BASEBALL MOVIE ABOUT HARD FINANCIAL TIMES AND FORECLOSURE

Though “Bull Durham” was entertaining, Kevin Costner's next movie was right up my alley: “Field of Dreams” (1989), a movie that can legitimately be described as one of the most perfect combinations of spirituality and sports ever made. Ironically, it's also a movie about facing hard financial times and foreclosure! In this one video clip we have both sides of the story. Costner's character Ray is being told by his brother-in-law: “Ray, when the bank opens in the morning, they will foreclose. You're broke, Ray. You sell now or you lose everything.” In the same clip we have James Earl Jones' character's incredible oration on baseball and how following your dreams will lead to prosperity.

Fast forward again, this time to Fall 2001. Best-selling author Robert Kiyosaki had just finished presenting a 3-day seminar up at the Carefree Resort, just north of Phoenix, Arizona. A group of us, including Robert & his wife Kim, were celebrating at a Mexican Restaurant after the seminar. The TV was on and blasting full force. No one in the whole restaurant was eating. No one was doing anything except watching the most miraculous series of events unfold. The Arizona Diamondbacks were playing the New York Yankees, THE dynasty in Major League Baseball, in the seventh and final game of the World Series. The two teams were tied at 3 games each so whichever team won this game won the 2001 World Series. Amazing game, won in the 9th inning by the D'backs in spectacular fashion. Read about it. Well, that's the short version of the part of my life called baseball. If you asked me WHY I love it so much, I swear to you, I could not tell you. I don't know why. I just do.

SANDY KOUFAX AND OTHERS SWINDLED BY MADOFF

So all that said, it was sad to see the headline this morning on espn.com - an article about Sandy Koufax and other baseball folks being among those swindled by Bernard Madoff. The damage this man has done reaches far and wide. It's astounding. But this post is no comment on Sandy Koufax or anyone else. My compassion goes out to ALL who've lost their money. There are people who have lost their entire fortunes. They went from being wealthy to scrambling for a dime, some trying to get a job as a greeter at Wal•Mart. An enormous amount of trust was placed in this man Madoff, by a multitude of people, many of whom were business-savvy. Perhaps there's only so much you can do but I still feel that raising one's financial IQ is one of the best forms of insurance.

THE FINANCIAL EDUCATION GAME AND HOW TO WIN IT!

Coincidentally, the same morning I see the headline about Sandy Koufax, I received an email from the Rich Dad Company about Robert Kiyosaki's FREE online book, Conspiracy of the Rich - The 8 New Rules of Money. Read Chapter 1

I understand that there are no guarantees in this world. But the best insurance in the financial arena is financial education, in my opinion. Doesn't mean everything is going to be perfect all the time, but to put the odds squarely in your favor, financial education is the way to go. Check out Chapter 1 of Conspiracy of the Rich -The 8 New Rules of Money. Robert Kiyosaki is the best-selling author of Rich Dad, Poor Dad, a book that has been on the NY Times Business Best Seller List for over 6 years. Robert has written many other books, all of which have valuable information to offer.

“THE NEW WEALTH IS KNOWLEDGE -- IT ALWAYS HAS BEEN KNOWLEDGE”

Two insightful quotes from Robert: • “Learning is actively seeking new information” • “The new wealth is knowledge -- it always has been knowledge.” Whether you study Robert Kiyosaki and Kim Kiyosaki, or Donald Trump, or Warren Buffet, someone else, or ALL of them, the point is, protect your family and your future by continuing to increase your financial education.

I have the honor of being an Advisor on a wonderful website called In10YearsBooks. On my Top Ten Favorite Books list I share the books that have had a great impact on my life and how those books influenced me. Choosing my Top Ten books was quite a process! Just like you, I've read tons of books over the years, all valuable and helpful in one way or another. To trim that list down to the Top Ten was definitely a challenge, but a beneficial one that brought back to me the value of each and every book, not just the Top Ten. Wow! Once I had my Top Ten books, I wrote a little synopsis for each one, and those are included with my list. Believe me, that was another valuable process! As I revisited each book in my mind, I was reminded of what the book was all about and how it had helped me to have more clarity, awareness, understanding, and increased power to change and improve my life. I'm happy to share my 2008 Top Ten Book list with you! So grab a cup of coffee or tea and take a few minutes to check out my list of My Top Ten Books! And please comment on this blog post! What are YOUR Top Ten Books? Please share with us!

Hayes’ Act of Honesty a Point of Controversy! http://theclearingsight.com/articles-of-interest/pro-golfer-jp-hayes-act-of-honesty-a-point-of-controversy/ http://theclearingsight.com/articles-of-interest/pro-golfer-jp-hayes-act-of-honesty-a-point-of-controversy/#comments Sat, 22 Nov 2008 15:30:07 +0000 Jayne Johnson http://theclearingsight.com/blog/?p=234 PGA Professional Golfer J.P. Hayes has been getting national attention for his act of honesty. Last week Hayes realized that, while playing in a PGA tournament, he had inadvertently used a golf ball that was not on the list of officially-approved balls. From a story on ESPN.com where Hayes turns himself in:
“Hayes had a choice: He could have said nothing and kept playing, with no one aware of his mistake. Or he could turn himself in and let his mistake cost him a 2009 PGA Tour card. He chose the latter.”
His act of honesty means that Hayes is disqualified from playing in PGA Tournaments in 2009. I first heard about this as I was driving and listening to two local sports radio guys discuss/argue about it. One guy was OK with what Hayes did. “OK” means, you know, OK if he did turn himself in and OK if he didn't. The other argued passionately that Hayes should not have turned himself in, his reasoning being that:
A) no harm was done B) Hayes would not ever have gotten caught
A radio caller acknowledged Hayes for demonstrating such a high level of integrity. The caller also said it was rather sad that an act of honesty would cause such amazement. In the video below you can see that J.P. Hayes is pretty amazed, himself! Interestingly, the radio guy against Hayes turning himself in could not hear what the caller was saying. So entrenched in his own rightness, there was no room in his paradigm to grasp the caller's viewpoint. What amazed me was the sports radio guy arguing against Hayes' act of turning himself in, all the while completely oblivious to how dishonest he sounded as he made his points. Listening to him, you could think, “Uh, wouldn't want to be your wife!” Well, no sense being righteous about it. The remedy is to ask, “When have I done that or something like that?” Acknowledging that allows for taking responsibility instead of getting in an uproar about how someone else is wrong about something. It's a good lesson. As for the issue at hand, kudos to J.P. Hayes! Your act of integrity is a gift to all of us!
