Believing Is Seeing: Manifesting Your Desires
I will be hosting a course beginning tomorrow night May 9 from 7PM to 9PM titled “Believing Is Seeing: Manifesting Your Desires.” This is a 6 week course every Wednesday May 9th to June 13th.
It will be my first time teaching a course and I am really looking forward to it and a good turnout of people.
The course covers 11 spiritual laws that govern our day to day lives. It will explain what the laws are, how they interact to create both good and bad in our lives and how they are intended to be used to create a fruitful, prosperous and abundant life for you and everyone you come in contact with.
The first week will include an introduction to the course and the first law. “The Law of Thinking”. Each subsequent week will cover two additional laws. There will be a break between each session to stretch, step outside, etc.
The class will be held at The Light House Chapel at 1501 Windsor Ave Lansing, MI 48906.
There is a $10 suggested donation per session however we wish this information available to everyone so no one will be turned away due to inability to pay so the donation is not required but is strongly encouraged.
You can register online at: http://www.thelighthousechapel.info/events/classes
You can also get directions from the website as well.
Hope to see you there.

The 31 Major Causes Of Failure
#30 – Lack Of Capital
This post we are going to discuss the # 29 Major Cause of Failure according to Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill.
#30 Lack of capital – This is a common cause of failure among those who start out in business for the first time, without sufficient reserve of capital to absorb the shock of their mistakes, and to carry them over until they have established a reputation.
Many people at one point or another decide they want to be their own boss. If they haven’t taken the time to learn, either through experience or study, exactly what is necessary to run a successful business they can be very surprised at all the little things that are not obvious to the employee or outsider.
While this continues to remain true even today when attempting to open a physical brick and mortar type operation the internet has given many people the opportunity to start business with a much lower initial investment of capital. Selling physical products using drop ship suppliers, promoting affiliate programs and creating and selling your own downloadable information products such as e-books, videos and audio recordings are all ways a person can run a business with very little monthly overhead.
While covering these subjects would be too lengthy for a simple blog post there is much information available on the internet about these subjects with just a simple search. Do be wary of “sales letters” that are thinly disguised as free information products. Most will use the “useful but incomplete method” where they give you just enough information to interest you but not enough to be useful unless you purchase their product.
The problem I have found with most of these is the product itself is “useful but incomplete” and they then steer you towards yet another purchase and another and another. There are plenty of free forums out there were you can get most of the same information without draining your pocket book
Until Next Post

The 31 Major Causes Of Failure
#27 – Intentional Dishonesty
This post we are going to discuss the # 27 Major Cause of Failure according to Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill.
#27 Intentional Dishonesty - There is no substitute for honesty. One may be temporarily dishonest by force of circumstances over which one has no control, without permanent damage. But, there is no hope for the person who is dishonest by choice. Sooner or later, his deeds will catch up with him, and he will pay by loss of reputation, and perhaps even loss of liberty.
While I can think of a few situations where it would be necessary to be dishonest to save your life for the most part I try to follow a quote I once read. “Either you are honest or you are dishonest. You cannot be dishonest in one part of your life and feel you are honest everywhere else.”
Not to say that I have not had dishonest moments in my own life. I have made my fair share of mistakes and maybe even more than my share. The worst part about dishonesty is that you may think you are aware of the consequences of your actions but you often find there are concequences you had never considered possible.
Ask any person convicted of a felony that is trying to put their life back on track how easy it is to find someone who will trust you enough to give you a job. The jobs are out there but they are usually on the lower end of the income bracket and to advance you must go above and beyond what others may be required to perform to prove your worth. And be careful of trying to hard as it can have it’s own set of perils.
This is yet another reason to invoke “The Golden Rule” as often as possible and remember to treat others as you would wish to be treated.
This is not to say that a person cannot “change their ways” and stop being dishonest. The past is the past and one can be honest from this moment forward. But if you have been dishonest in the past it may be a long time before those whom you have hurt are able to trust you again if ever.
Today’s Gratitude Statement
I am so happy and grateful that, I am a free man; my destiny is within my control, I do not need envy the possessions of others as there is plenty for myself and everyone.
Today’s Affirmation
I am an honest person. It is not possible to be dishonest “part of the time”, one is either honest or dishonest. My reputation and trust of my friends and family is more important than any amount of wealth I may accumulate through dishonest measures.
