Why do so many businesses end up sucking wind? Perhaps you might reflect on this question while I tell you what I’ve been up to lately. Another seminar! You might be wondering, will it ever stop? I hope not! I’m committed to improving myself and whatever part of the world I can touch, so I must continue learning and challenging myself to move on to greater things.

The seminar in question was Peak Potentials “Seminar of the Century - Woodstock for the Mind”. It truly was! Imagine sitting outdoors on a mountain slope, with an incredible panorama, in the picturesque ski village of Snowmass, Colorado for 13 hours everyday for 3 days, listening to the greatest personal/business development trainers in North America. Whew! T. Harv Eker, president of Peak Potentials really delivered!

Each day consisted of 4 to 5 speakers, the likes of who I’ll introduce later. And every evening we were treated to a bit of nostalgia in the form of live music, provided by some of the headliners from the 70’s and 80’s. Many of you may remember David Jenkins (Pablo Cruise), David Pack (Ambrosia), and Alan Parsons (Alan Parsons Project), to name a few.

Up and Away!
Believe me, enlightenment and inspiration were in the air! And we absorbed it like sponges. Was it the experience of a life time? I hope not. My goal is to attract many more incredible experiences which will continue to motivate me. This was not the first for me, and I won’t allow it to be the last. I know Blair is of the same mind set. It’s been crucial to our personal and business successes to participate in similar experiences.

Before I share some of my gleanings from the gurus who shared their greatest secrets with us, I have more exciting news. Before departing Snowmass, we orchestrated another unbelievably awesome experience - a hot air ballon ride in the midst of the Colorado Rockies. Something else I’d highly recommend!

I think the best way to share my ‘AHA’s’ from the seminar is to give you insights from the speakers, without expounding on their offerings. If something speaks to you, I urge you to check them out - Google them, buy their books, study their philosophies. These are highly successful people, personally and financially. They live their lives with joy, and they give back to the world. Giving is unanimously their emphasis; in fact, it’s what motivates each of them to greatness. Let’s get started! (Disclaimer: These are not necessarily direct quotes, but my interpretation of what was said.) (If you’ve already read the print version, for your convenience the extra content is highlighted in red print.)

Bob Proctor (”You Were Born Rich”, “The Secret”)
- The definition of a paradigm is a multitude of habits which control our lives. To make a difference we need to change them. Paradigms affect our logic, perception, happiness, relationships, and dictate how we use our time and our money!
- At birth your mind is wide open to thoughts, images, ideas. Then ideas become fixed (the conditioned mind). The conditioning is known as the paradigm. The paradigm is in the subconscious mind!
- We’ve been conditioned to live from the outside in. We need to learn to do the opposite. How many things do we do habitually, not even knowing why, that someone else decided for us?!
- The law of attraction responds to the paradigm, not the intellect!
- Results will change if your awareness changes. Don’t focus on intellect - focus on awareness. Once awareness is expanded, it’ll never change!
- Make a lifetime commitment to a daily program of self-improvement!
- Working is the worst way to earn money. Rich people have multiple sources of income. This is the way to become wealthy. Work only for your satisfaction!
- Money can be used to make you comfortable, and when you’re comfortable you can be creative!
- Spend your money on things that will earn you money, so you can do something bigger!
- If there’s something you want to do, decide to do it now - don’t wait to figure it out!
- Time can’t be managed - activities can!
- Decide to do it; don’t wait to figure it out!
- Money is a magnifier. If you’re a jerk, you’ll become a bigger jerk, but if you’re committed to doing great things, then you can do greater things!
- The wealthiest place on earth is the cemetery. There you’ll find all of the gifts that were never given away!

Mark Victor Hansen (”Chicken Soup for the Soul”)
- When feeling rejected say, “NEXT!”
- Mental malpractice - “I can’t!”
- People with BIG goals build and buy BIG companies!
- BIG companies are built with BIG ideas, a BIG story, and BIG promise!
- BIG people like BIG projects!
- BIG ideas get BIG capital!
- BIG companies play with BIG partners!
- BIG distribution makes you rich!
- Rich people can do BIG charity!
- Ask...Believe...Receive!
- Focus on refirement, not retirement!
- Marketing is story telling!
- Teach your children and grandchildren to be wealth creators!
- Paradigm shifts are fast!
- Create massive value for others!
- 94% of all business failure is system failure!
- 7 Goal Categories: Family, Relationships, Spiritual, Health/Fitness, Financial, Career!
- You are one MEGA idea and one KEY CONTACT away from unlimited fortune!

Jack Canfield (”Chicken Soup for the Soul”, “The Secret”)
- Go farther and faster with less effort!
- Take responsibility for your life. Give up blaming, complaining, justifying, defending, and excuse making!
- You have control over your thoughts, images, and feelings!

Alan Cohen (”Relax Into Wealth”)
- If you have a need for something, someone out there has a need to fulfill it!
- Limits are learned - there are no limits!
- We are born fine; then we are defined; now we work to be refined!
- Stop what deadens you!
- If it’s not a “Hell Yes!”, it’s a “Hell No!”
- Every minus is a beginning of a plus waiting for a stroke of vertical awareness!
- It’s all about the ride; suffering does not buy happiness, joy buys happiness!
- Is there life before death?!
- Success Steps: Claim inherent brilliance!
- Pave your own avenue to wisdom!
- Trust your gut!
- Be perfectly authentic!
- Deliver with passion!
- Be not distracted!
- Take an action step that signifies belief!
- Launch and release!

Les Brown (”It’s Not Over Until You Win!”)
- If there’s no enemy within, the enemy outside can’t do you harm!
- If you aim at nothing, you’ll hit nothing dead on the head! Most people aim too low and hit (or don’t aim at all.) Better to aim too high and miss!
- If you’re the smartest in your group, you need a new group!
- Leap, and grow your wings on the way down!
- Don’t be afraid to fail your way to success!
- When life knocks you down, land on your back so you can get up!
- Life is about expansion; success is never ending!
- Live full - die empty!
- Someone’s opinion of you does not have to be your reality!
- It’s necessary to have a strategy and game plan to change the story of yourself!
- Be a risk taker!
- Invest in yourself until you die!
- Don’t take it personally!
- When things go wrong, don’t go with them!
- Try to get on top; the bottom’s overcrowded!
- You’re never too old to learn or too young to teach!
- Feel it in your heart, not your head!
- Provide more service than you get paid for!
- It’s better to expect an opportunity and not have one, than to have an opportunity and not be prepared!
- Shoot for the moon, because even if you miss you’ll land among the stars!

Brian Tracy ("The Psychology of Achievement")
- One of the universal laws of physics is the Law of Cause and Effect: Thoughts are causes; conditions are effects!
- Follow the recipe to be successful. If you do over and over what successful people do, you will eventually be successful, too!
- If you believe something strongly enough, it becomes reality!
- The Law of Attraction is necessary, but not sufficient for success. It eventually requires action on your part!
- Your outer world is a mirror of your inner world (thoughts, feelings, emotions)!
- To attract something you must be absolutely crystal clear about what you want; write it down. Then take off! Keep correcting and never quit!
- Another universal law is the Law of Sympathetic Resonance, which stresses the importance of the vibrations you emit. According to this law, striking a tuning fork on one side of a room will cause a piano string on the other side of the room to spontaneously begin to vibrate, sounding either the same note or a harmonic of the note sounded by the tuning fork!
- The Law of Super Conscious Activity says that any thought, plan, goal, or idea that you can hold continuously will be brought into your reality. In other words, you become what you think about most of the time!
Suggestion: Write down 10 goals to accomplish before the end of the year. Once you’ve decided on a major goal, the only question is how?!

Barbara DeAngelis (”How Did I Get Here?”)
- Make your vision bigger than your story!
- Honour divine discomfort. When you find yourself restless, depressed, lazy, or self-sabotaging you may be getting ready to give birth to yourself (transformation)!
- You came here with a bundle to give away, so you can finish your life empty-handed and light-hearted!
- There is nothing holding you back from greatness except yourself!
- We see the world through the lens of our issues!
- Don’t scare yourself forward - love yourself forward. Love everyone forward!
- The winds of grace are always blowing, but you must raise the sails!

Art Linkletter (”Kids Say the Darndest Things!”, “People Are Funny”, “Make the Rest of Your Life the Best of Your Life”)
- Positive action versus positive thinking!
- Don’t get old - grow old!

John Gray (”Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus”, “The Secret”)
- Don’t waste your time waiting for someone else to change or acknowledge they’re wrong!
- Every storm is temporary!

Michael Gerber (”The E-Myth Revisited”)
- So many businesses end up sucking wind!
- Definition of a job: No passion, no purpose, no meaning - just filling up days to get by!
- What is your dream? Start with what is unacceptable to you. Everyone has an entrepreneur within!

The Raven
I’ve learned so many businesses end up sucking wind because the owner is focused only on creating a job for themself. In order for a business to be highly successful, it must focus on marketing and innovation. A successful business must be created by an entrepreneur, not a technician. If you are willing to discover the entrepreneur in you, and spend most of your time working on your business, rather than in your business, you can have greater success, too.

We’re here to encourage your inner entrepreneur. Our purpose is to provide sign manufacturing businesses with the products, service, education, and inspiration they need to grow their business. If this is what you’re looking for, please contact us now.

Our heart is with your business,

Team SignEquip by Corbins
