Liberty League Associate of the Month

Liberty League International's Associate of the Month for September 2008 is my buddy Gene Braxton. I hope you enjoy this peek into Gene's life. He's been a huge impact on my life and business. He and I have toasted our successes all over the world from the Caribbean to Sydney to Rome Italy.

If Gene were "guest-blogging" with me, I think he'd be the first to tell you....his accomplishments are achievable by anyone who is willing to follow a simple system. He might also add, "you haven't seen anything yet!"

Congratulations Gene Braxton on being Liberty League International's Associate of the Month!

Who's The Commodity?

I always think it's interesting that -- if you do a search on the words "Liberty League" or "Liberty League International" -- you seem to find a lot of people who think they're in competition with Liberty League who are spending some SERIOUS money to try to catch your attention.

And I suppose that's to be expected. Some people really don't get that part of "prosperity consciousness" is just to understand that there is an unlimited amount of pie. That is, you don't have to keep someone else from getting a piece in order for you to get a piece.

Still, I guess it's easier for some people to claim that belief than to actually live by it.

So, they go to Google or Yahoo and spend thousands and thousands of dollars on OUR name....in order to try to route traffic to their business.

But this all begs the question: who's the commodity in this scenario?

If someone chooses to spend thousands of dollars a month to bid on search terms like "Liberty League"....it seems to me that they're affirming what we already know:

• Liberty League is making huge strides in the industry.
  
  
• Liberty League is experiencing near-vertical growth.
  
  
• We have people in Liberty League who have earned more than $700,000 in their FIRST YEAR in the business
  
  
• Liberty League has active associates -- that's not a typo...ACTIVE associates -- in 69 countries around the world.
  
  
• Liberty League has retail product customers in over 100 countries around the world
  
  
• Liberty League has an 8-year track record of success and continues to lead by example

So, when I see other companies -- and marketers -- who feel that the only way they can succeed is by attacking Liberty League....well, I can't help but smile a bit. It makes me wonder where they got their lack-consciousness and "limited pie" mindset. I certainly hope it's not from the products they're selling that are supposed to make one more successful!

At the end of the day, none of it matters. If people quiet their minds....unplug from the "noise"...they will tend to attract the right business for them. Maybe it's Liberty League. Maybe it's something else.

In the meantime, it sure seems like a lot of people are worried that it might be us. Either way, it's good publicity for Liberty League.

Best of success to you guys!

Executive bathrooms, meaningless titles and other BS

I just saw an article about "interning" and I can't avoid ranting for a second. This concept of "interning"....is that the stupidest thing in the world or what?

In any other part of the world, if you were forced to work without pay, it would be called "slavery" or "forced labor". But, in America, some corporations (and politicians) have actually managed to talk people into the idea that working for free is a good thing!

It'd be funny if it weren't so sadly ludicrous.

Of course, it's based on the concept of "apprenticeship" which has been around for ages. An apprentice works for years with a master of the craft and then one day is able to be his own boss and reap the benefits of his study.

But the difference is that an "internship" usually leads to a path of DECLINING value.

And what's really funny is that people actually believe that an "internship" is better than getting paid! Seriously. If you were to go to a college campus and ask students if they'd rather work as a carpenter's apprentice for $20 an hour....or go answer phones in some corporate office for free....

...they actually choose to work for free!

So, if you're looking to get an "internship", let me offer you a perspective you might not have considered:

1. If your "internship" goes according to plan, the best-case scenario is that you're going to wind up getting hired for around $24,000 per year to do what you were already doing for free anyway: answering the phone, taking messages, picking up the boss's dry cleaning. Or whatever.
   
   
2. The likelihood that you could earn far more money far more quickly is almost guaranteed. The only real satisfaction you will have as an intern is the dangling carrot that the boss keeps waving about how you're "building your resume" and "making connections".
   
   
3. If you DO manage to put up with the office politics long enough to get yourself hired, the only real "payoff" you get at that point is the ability to kick around the latest crop of interns who have signed up to work for the office for free!

Let me offer you a different possibility:

What if....you could own your own home-based business in an $11 billion per year industry where you can create your own fortune without having to kiss anyone's butt?

What if....you can earn a multiple six-figure income before the current crop of interns ever figure out how to take a second coffee-break without the boss finding out?

What if...the path from where you are to where you WANT to be didn't have to involve boardrooms, office politics, glass ceilings, or the so-called "perks" that don't do anything to help you with your financial well-being?

What if...you could replace the promise of a fancy title, pretty business cards, a fancy desk chair and a key to the executive washroom with the reality of living where you want to live, driving what you want to drive and doing what you want to do?

What if....the only paperwork you had to do were deposit slips at your bank?

What if...you earned more in a month than a hired-intern earns in a year?

What if.....well, you've got the picture.

Interning -- and employment in general for that matter -- is for people who think they need to postpone their dreams in order to live someone else's dreams.

When are you going to start living YOUR dreams? How much time do you have on this earth? When would NOW be the right time to start doing what YOU want to do?

Visit LibertyLeague.com today and find out how I jumped out of the rat race and landed in a life without limits. If you like what you see, give me a call and I'll be glad to show you how I did it and you can too.

P.S. If you don't know about the Beyond Freedom Life Achievement Course, click here!

So you watched "The Secret".....

So you watched "The Secret"....

So you read the book....

So you downloaded "The Science of Getting Rich"....

So you went to a Tony Robbins weekend....

So you read "Think and Grow Rich"....

So you've been around personal development for years....

.......and you've learned some really "profound" things.

Let me ask you a question, though:

How profound is it if you know everything and your life doesn't work any better?

Does it really matter how educated you are about success principles if you can't see a dramatic difference between how your life looks as a result of what you know?

Seriously. Think about that.

Because, here's the thing: you've got a limited amount of time on this earth before your ride is over. And every day, week, month and year that goes by in your present situation ....is a day, week, month or year that you are not...living...up...to...your...potential.

Period. End of Story

All the resources I mentioned at the top of this post are GREAT. They really are. But, if your life is not a demonstration of what you know....then you're still not getting it.

The Beyond Freedom Life Achievement Course is unique in that it has a built-in COMMUNITY of people whom you can mastermind with daily and weekly.

It's not a book.
It's not a DVD.
It's not a CD.
It's not a study guide.

It's all of those things PLUS a personal experience.

What level of this chart are YOU on?

FACT: most of the people you see every day are engaged in "survival-thinking". Only a handful are engaged in "success-thinking".

If you're not familiar with Abraham Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs (pictured here), take a look at the bottom two levels. These are the areas that -- according to Maslow -- give you ZERO positive emotional payoff if you achieve them. But they DO give you a very NEGATIVE emotional payoff if you DON'T achieve them.

This is where most people operate. They spend all their mental resources thinking about food, shelter, clothing, and paying the bills.

They focus on how they're going to get from this payday to next payday. In many cases they're "robbing Peter to pay Paul"; that is, they're running late on their mortgage so they can pay their insurance.

And make no mistake about it: these aren't just people living below the poverty line. Some of these people are making $50,000 a year.

In fact, if you were to poll 1,000 people who earn only $25,000 a year, I'd guess that most of them would think that their life would be problem-free if they earned $50,000.

But it wouldn't. Why? Because they're so accustomed to "doing without" that they don't even have some of the bills that they SHOULD have. Like health insurance. And life insurance. And putting aside a portion of their earnings into investments.

So, when the $25,000 earner gets to $50,000 they often find that they're STILL not living the lifestyle they wanted. They're just operating at a higher level of survival.

Liberty League International is all about helping people achieve the top THREE levels of Maslow's hierarchy of needs; look at the chart. These are the areas where you not only have the basics of life handled....but you're finally able to focus on things that DO give you a huge emotional payoff.

You can spend time with your family.
You can focus on your art.
You can visit the exotic locations on the planet.
You actually have time to sit down with your child and watch them draw a picture.
You can sample the best quality foods, fabrics, clothing and experiences.
You can hire people to make your life easier (a lawn man, a nanny, a personal chef, a trainer, etc.)

So, let me tell you something you already know: you don't live this way on $25,000 a year. Or even $50,000 a year. And usually not on $100,000 a year.

Don't get me wrong. Everyone has to start somewhere. And any new step on that ladder is a step in the right direction. But, when you join Liberty League International and you find how simple it is to achieve a $25,000 per MONTH income.....you'll begin to find that the life you've wanted has been waiting for you all the time.

Where are YOU spending your time? On the bottom two levels of Maslow's chart?

Are you ready to create the kind of freedom and income that will allow you to tap into the top levels?

It all begins with a choice. Contact me for details and I'll be glad to share with you a very special mastermind group I'm putting together within Liberty League International that will assist you in achieving your goals.

I'll look forward to speaking with you!

We just arrived in Rome Italy for the 2008 Summit Conference with Liberty League International. We've set up a special blog for this trip at http://www.LivingTheLifeInRome.com if you'd like to see pictures and read updates and what we're doing.

It's going to be an amazing Liberty League event! Check it out!

How To Earn A Simple Six-Figure Income

Liberty League has a ton of different ways to make money. About 7 different ways last time I counted....and I'm sure I might have missed one or two.

But, when I was looking at Liberty League for myself....I've gotta be honest. I knew that there was a lot of different ways to make money. But the thing that I saw most clearly was that the primary income stream would create a six-figure income EASILY for anyone who was willing to follow the system we teach.

So, here you go: this is about as simple as I can explain to someone how to earn a six-figure income in Liberty League International.

Adjust your speakers and click the play button below to listen to this simple explanation:

Like what you hear? Call me on my cellphone at 334-655-8194 and let's talk about how you can start creating these results THIS WEEK. It's all about choice.

Note: the numbers used in this audio are for explanation purposes only and no guarantee is expressed or implied that you will have this same result. No purchase of product is required to earn an income in Liberty League International and no one earns an income for enrolling people as an Associate.

There are two kinds of people in the world....

Broadly speaking, there are two kinds of people in the world: leaders and followers. Decide at the beginning whether you intend to be a leader or remain a follower. The difference in income is vast.

The follower cannot reasonably expect the compensation which a leader is entitlted to...although may followers make the mistake of expecting such pay.

And it's no disgrace to be a follower. On the other hand, remaining a follower isn't a credit, either. Most great leaders began in the capacity as a follower. They become great leaders because they were intelligent followers.

With few exceptions, the person who cannot follow a leader cannot BECOME an efficient leader. The person who can follow a leader most efficiently is usually the person who develops their leadership abilities faster.

So...which group are you in? Which group are you committed to staying in?

Want more "Law of Attraction"?

If you haven't heard of Michael Losier, yet....you will. His book "The Law of Attraction" is the #6 best-selling book on Amazon.com.

He's going to be speaking at the next Liberty Conference coming up in Cancun, Mexico in March of 2006. If you haven't had a chance to experience Michael, enjoy the video below of him speaking at one of his workshops.

How would you like to be here?

How would you like to hang out here for a week?

You can.

The picture to the left (click to see a larger version) is a satellite photo of the location of the 2007 Summit Conference for Liberty League International. We'll be staying at the Sydney Intercontinental, just a stone's throw from one of the most famous buildings in the world....the Sydney Opera House.

Also, I just learned this past week that Bob Proctor of Life Success Productions and the movie The Secret is a confirmed speaker at this event. An opportunity to spend a week up-close and personal with Bob Proctor....it's exciting stuff.

Also, it's my son Easton's first birthday on June 26th as well. Imagine being able to look back and see pictures of your first birthday party in Sydney, Australia with a couple thousand people and Bob Proctor at your party. What a life.

Find out more about the Summit Conference. It'll be here before you know it!

And here's the kicker....they do...

They just aren't willing to act on it...

The Astronaut Farmer

I was looking through some movie trailers today and found one called "The Astronaut Farmer".

The Astronaut Farmer?? What the heck is that?

Turns out it's a new film from Billy Bob Thornton. And it looks pretty empowering. It's about a guy in Texas who has dreamed of going to space so badly that he finally decides to do something about it.

He builds a rocket. And despite threats from NASA, the government and everyone in between...he's made the decision to live his dream.

The movie isn't out yet but the language in the trailer is POWERFUL. Adjust your speakers and listen to this 30-second clip:

If you're not where you can listen right now, here's the quote:

Somewhere along the line, we stopped believing that we could do anything. You'd better know what you want to do. Before someone knows it for you.

Man, that's powerful. Most people go through their entire lives with no plan of their own. They're just fitting into someone else's plan. An employer. A supervisor. A boss.

And guess what they've got planned for you?

Not much.

And that's why you've got so many people driving what they don't want to drive, living where they don't want to live and doing what they don't want to do.

Have you figured out what YOU want in life? Are you doing anything about it? Or are you just going along with someone else's plan?

Here's the truth: you're either living your dreams or you're working for someone who's living theirs.

Don't be boring in 2007

It's a New Year and another chance to do something amazing with your life.

Read that again. Got it?

2006 is dead. It's history. And unless you're doing something different than you did in 2006...well, 2007 is going to be about the same.

And here's the problem...most people aren't asking the right questions.

I'll give you an example...

Jessica and I just got back from Hawaii. I'm tall enough, vain enough and wealthy enough to pay an extra $3,000 to fly first-class. So, we were eating real food on real plates with real glasses.

The folks riding in coach were on a "buy your food" plan.

Now, the questions they were being asked were: do you want to buy a bag of chips, trail mix, a bag of M&Ms or what looked like a quarter-pound Snickerdoodle sugar cookie?

This is an example of someone being asked the WRONG question. Do you know what happens to people who eat M&Ms for breakfast? Nothing good.

Here's a clue: there's never a right answer to a wrong question.

So, what question should YOU be asking in 2007?

In my opinion, these are all WRONG questions:

-- how can I get promoted at my job?
-- how can I figure out how to save money on childcare?
-- how can I get an extra weekend off?
-- will I get a vacation this year?
-- how can I get more overtime?

Those are stupid questions, in fact. Here are the correct questions:

-- how can I quit my job and make more than my boss?
-- how can I raise my own children instead of paying a 7-dollar=an=hour stranger to do it?
-- how can I have all the free time I want?
-- how many vacations do I want to take this year?
(We took six this past year)
-- how can I never work more than 25 hours a week?

That's what you should be asking. The other questions are for The Herd.

It's 2007 and a new adventure is beckoning you. It's calling you by name. This is your chance to start a new direction in your life or to stay in the same situation you've been in for ages.

I gotta tell you...I KNOW what the next 12 months look like for me and I am JAZZED. It's totally different than what the average people will experience. And it's all a CHOICE.

Think about what most people are spending their time worrying about:

- Their neighbors leaves blew in their yard.
- Their substitute mailman runs a half-hour later than the usual guy.
- Whether they tipped the pizza guy $2 too much.
- Whether or not the dry-cleaner broke a button on a blouse.
- The cashier didn't ring up the "double coupon" on the can of pinto beans.

These people are driving what they don't want to drive, living where they don't want to live and doing what they don't want to do.

Their biggest plan for the weekend is to load up on videos from Netflix or Blockbuster so they can spend all weekend watching TV in a coma and eating Fritos, Cheetos and Doritoes.

Sheesh.

Somebody give me a break.

You don't have time for that crap. Your life is too short.

Wouldn't you rather be thinking about how to make an extra $10,000 a month? Or whether or not your spouse would like the Cartier watch or the Rolex? (Mine bought me the Rolex Daytona....$8k)

So, here's the deal.....

If you want something different, you're going to have to get out of your comfort zone and actually DO something different.

So, to get you started, here are some things you in 2007:

-- Unplug your TV for a month.
-- Get your head into some good personal development.
-- Watch the movie The Secret at least twice a month.
-- Start a business.
-- Get rich.
-- Rescue a pet from the Humane Society.
-- Forgive somebody.
-- Heck, forgive EVERYBODY. Most of all yourself.

You are a powerful, beautiful, wonderful human being who has the ability to create whatever results you want in your life.

And don't let anyone tell you any differently.

But, your quality of life depends on you and what you're going to do with your days.

Read this whole article again.

Save it.

Print it.

Pass it on to someone else.

But, for God's sake....get off your butt and actually go DO something with the life God gave you.

And if you want to work with me and find out how simple it really is to get rich working at home...then give me a ring. I'll give you the details.

But, whatever you do...do SOMETHING.

Your life is calling you. Will you answer?

You know you're doing something right....

You know you're doing something right when you look on the back of the latest issue of The Robb Report magazine and find an ad for a location where you've already been.

This picture is on the back of the January issue of The Robb Report. I took the same picture when I visited St. Thomas myself.

To get to the top of this mountain, you have to take a cable-car from the marina up about 15 minutes. As you can see, the view is amazing. St. Maarten is close by and is just as luxurious.

You know, Liberty League has allowed me to visit a ton of places I would never have visited otherwise. In the last two years, we've been to Cancun, Puerto Rico, Hawaii, Whistler, British Columbia....the list goes on and on. We're going to Australia next -- it's going to be a blast.

Heck, my kids have more stamps in their passports than most grown people. How cool is that?

You should come along. It's just a choice. Get started and watch how much your life changes. Maybe you'll pick up a Robb Report sometime and find a picture of your favorite vacation spot...

Joining Liberty League makes you thin?

Okay, Americans are fat. No doubt about it. Over the years, many people have speculated why.

Some have suggested that the food pyramid is screwed up. Others have accused fast food restaurants citing the typical amount of trans fat in an order of French fries. Still others have blamed thyroid problems, psychological disabilities, and low self esteem.

And while I’m sure that some of these theories do play a part in the rising obesity epidemic, they carefully ignore the main reason.

See if you can make the connection:

A. 61% of Americans are overweight and a whopping 27% are clinically obese.
B. The average American brings home less than $2,200 per month in net income.

Am I the only one who sees the connection? Americans are fat because they're broke. People struggle with their weight because they don't have enough money to stay thin.

And you can prove this to yourself. If you've got $5 in your pocket, you don't have enough money to buy a piece of grilled salmon with a side order of steamed asparagus. But you've got enough to buy a Super-Sized Quarter Pounder meal, don't you?

You can buy a Snickers bar for $.50. But I've never seen a fruit cup for under $3.

Here's another example: go to the grocery store and buy all the stuff you need to make a great salad at home. You're probably going to spend around $30 and the stuff will stay fresh in your fridge for a few days. On the other hand, you could spend the same $30 on macaroni & cheese, Ramen noodles, hamburger helper and Tombstone pizzas and you can buy enough food for a month.

Get clear on this: Hollywood superstars and multi-millionaires aren't wearing size 0 dresses or size 32/34 pants because they have more willpower than you. They're trim and fit because they can afford to hire a personal trainer, someone to cook nutritious meals and spend as much time as they need to working out.

Now, obviously I'm not saying that making a ton of money is going to automatically make you the next Daniel Craig. But, I AM saying that making a ton of money gives you the ability and freedom to take better care of the most important commodity you have: your body.

Being healthy is an investment. And it's not an investment that the average person can make when they're squeaking by from paycheck to paycheck.

And this is why it is VITAL that you get involved in a business where you can have A.) Plenty of money and B.) Plenty of free time.

And Liberty League International is an environment where you can do this. With profits of $1,000 to $8,000 and more and a business plan that involves working only 15-20 hours a week....it's an ideal career for someone who wants to improve EVERY area of their life.

Including your health.

It's 2007. Don't keep killing yourself with your fork. Make some money and get healthy.
