Where's the Book?

Talk about emotion.

The long awaited sequel to my book Zero Limits is out and boy is it pushing people’s buttons.

At Zero became a bestseller the first week of January and is now in the hands of lots of people.

Just like with the first book, At Zero is triggering anger in some people and awakening in others.

New book!

Where's the book?

But as I explain in the new book, what you experience is due to your own belief filters, not to the book itself.

For example —

One person says, “There’s nothing new in the book and it’s not real ho’oponopono at all.”

Yet another person reads the very same book (!) and declares, “Great new insights, advanced clearing methods, and a revelation about authentic ho’oponopono. Loved it!”

Here’s another —

One person says, “He just sells in this book.”

Yet another person reads the exact same book (!) and says, “He doesn’t sell at all in this one.”

And another —

“Joe tells stories of his struggles but doesn’t show how the practice of ho’oponopono helped him get out of them.”

Yet another person reading the very same book (!) says, “Joe shares incredible stories of his own tough times and reveals how his practice caused the problems to disappear like miracles.”

Another says —

“Joe puts down Dr. Hew Len”

Yet another person reads the exact same book (!) and says, “Joe compares Dr. Hew Len to Jesus.”

Gee, which is true?

Again, it’s not the book, but the person reading it.

You bring your own mindset to the pages.

Just like in real life. 🙂

I could show you all the expert praise for At Zero, such as —

“Joe’s new book was just as I knew it would be – FABULOUS!
The riveting stories and enlightening insights lifted my
spirits and filled my soul with love. This is indeed a path
to miracles!”
– Janet Bray Attwood, co/author NY Times bestseller,
The Passion Test

And —

“This book ought to be a movie. A masterpiece of story
telling and a revelation on how the Hawaiian healing
system of Ho’oponopono really works.”
~ Barnet Bain, movie producer, “What Dreams May Come”
and “The Celestine Prophecy”

And —

“In ‘At Zero’, Dr. Joe Vitale shares the catalyst of his
own awakening. He is vulnerable, insightful and shares
authentic Ho’oponopono secrets that are empowering and
inspiring. If you want to get to the state of zero, where
there are no limiting beliefs, I highly suggest you read
this book.”
– Dr. Steve G. Jones, Clinical Hypnotherapist

And –

“With ‘Zero Limits’, Joe Vitale introduced the world to
the incredible healing system of Ho’oponopono.  Now he’s
taking it all to the next level, going deeper and revealing
the real essence and magic behind these ancient secrets.
A must read!”
– Nick Ortner, NY Times Best-Selling Author of
The Tapping Solution

— but As E.M. Forster once wrote –

“A book is a mirror; if an ass peers into it, you can’t expect an apostle to peer out.”

I think E.M. Forster was a tad harsh, but his quote points to a truth that is in the very book people are reading:

You see what you are.

In At Zero, I explain that the book isn’t even real.

It is in fact a projection created from your mental programs.

What you see in the book is in you, not in the book.

This insight is at the very heart of ho’oponopono and my new book.

It’s the fact that you (and I) have programs (beliefs), and those programs need cleaned up in order to see any mutually agreed upon reality.

The best thing to do is find out for yourself why At Zero is so powerful.

If you want to see what all the fuss is about, and if you dare to face your own beliefs, then go see –

Beliefs Blocking Wealth

The following is a guest post by my friend and mentor Morty Lefkoe.  Morty struggled to make lasting changes in his life for 45 years until he figured out a way to unlearn the beliefs that held him back. He turned what he discovered into a repeatable process that he used to help others—including family, friends, and eventually 150,000 individuals and over 50 corporations—unlearn their limiting beliefs. He shares what he discovered with readers like you in his weekly blog at http://www.mortylefkoe.com

How negative beliefs will keep you from achieving wealth

by Morty Lefkoe

About a year ago Joe Vitale and I were having dinner at my home in Northern California. At some point we started discussing the Law of Attraction (LOA). Both of us agreed that no matter what we felt, what we focused on, and what we did, if we had a bunch of limiting beliefs serving as barriers to achieving personal success—whether you measure that by money, position, or a general sense or happiness—it would be difficult if not impossible to get what we wanted.

Let me explain why.

Why beliefs have the power they do

A belief is a statement about reality that we feel is “the truth.” Our beliefs seem like facts to us. So if you believe life is difficult, relationships don’t work, or money is hard to get, for you, those are facts about the world. You will deal with life as if they are as real as the device on which you are reading the words.

I conducted a survey of my mailing list a few years ago and asked them to name the six most common beliefs that could keep them from achieving financial abundance. Here is how they answered (the most important one first):

Six of the most damaging beliefs about money


* You have to work hard to make money.
* I’ll never have enough money.
* Money is a struggle.
* I’m not deserving.
* There is never enough money.
* Life is difficult.

If you really thought these six statements were accurate descriptions of reality, can you see how you would be blocked in your ability to create financial abundance in your life?

  • You would have to work very hard all the time (which is not really a good way to enjoy your life) and, if you didn’t, you wouldn’t expect to make money.

  • How motivated could you be to make money if you really were convinced you would never have enough? And if somehow you did have “enough,” there would be the constant fear that you would lose it, because you don’t expect to have enough.

  • You would expect to struggle all the time to make money. And if you were unwilling to struggle all the time, you wouldn’t even try to make money.

  • The fourth belief is an interesting one because it is a self-esteem belief, not a belief directly related to money. If you really believe that you aren’t deserving, you will unconsciously resist getting what you want. And like the second belief, if somehow you did get some money, you probably would find some way to lose it because you wouldn’t deserve to have it.

  • If you really believe there is never enough money, you will never be satisfied with what you have. You will always experience needing more money no matter how much you have. This dooms you to dissatisfaction no matter how much wealth you accumulate.

  • The final belief isn’t even about making money or achieving financial abundance as such; it is a belief about life, one that is very common. If you expect life to be difficult, it will be.

Self-esteem beliefs can also sabotage your ability to accumulate wealth

These are only the major beliefs specifically relating to achieving abundance. It should be clear that self-esteem beliefs could affect your financial situation—beliefs like I’m not good enough, I’m inadequate, I’m not capable, I’m not competent, I’m powerless, and I’ll never get what I want.

Is it real now that your beliefs could severely sabotage your ability to earn money and accumulate wealth? In other words, personal success will probably always be just outside your reach.

Is eliminating beliefs sufficient?

But what happens if you eliminate all the beliefs that could interfere with your accumulating money? Will that insure your financial security? Unfortunate, the answer is, no.

If you have a behavior you want to stop, such as procrastination, or a negative feeling, such as anxiety, if you eliminate all the beliefs that cause the behavior or the emotion, they will permanently stop. Guaranteed.

But attaining wealth is not a behavior or a feeling; it is something that has to happen in reality. And, although getting rid of limiting beliefs can increase the possibility of something happening in reality, eliminating beliefs will not insure it.

There are many factors determining your ability to accumulate wealth

In order to earn money you have to offer people something of value they are willing to pay for. If you have nothing to offer, or if your price is higher than what people think the product or service is worth, or if your expenses are higher than your revenues, etc. you will never earn much money.

If you want to work for someone else and don’t have the skills that employers are looking for, or if you aren’t particular effective at what you do, or if you are late in doing what you are asked to do, etc., the chance of getting or keeping a job, much less a promotion and raise, is not very good.

So getting money depends on more than eliminating beliefs, as important as that is. It is a precondition, but not sufficient in itself. You also need an effective strategy that is implemented well.

Eliminating beliefs can help you find the best course of action

Getting rid of beliefs will not only remove barriers, as discussed earlier, it also creates possibilities for taking action that significantly improves your chances of doing what needs to be done to make money.

Let me explain how eliminating beliefs creates new possibilities that didn’t exist before. Imagine you had the beliefs: I’m not loveable, relationships don’t work, and men/women can’t be trusted. If you really believed that is the way reality is, what would be the possibility for you to have a good, nurturing, loving, long-term relationship? Slim to nil, right?

Now let’s imagine that you totally eliminated those three and a few other related beliefs. Can you see that without changing anything else about you or reality, you now have possibilities for a good, nurturing, loving, long-term relationship that you didn’t have before.

How eliminating beliefs creates new possibilities

My wife Shelly, a Certified Lefkoe Method Facilitator who has helped thousands of clients eliminate the beliefs that stop them, tells the following story about personal success..

A client called her one day and told Shelly that she and several friends had just attended T. Harv Eker’s “Millionaire Mind” workshop, after which she purchased the summerhouse of her dreams. She was so excited that she just had to tell Shelly that what she had learned in the course had enabled her to do it.

Shelly pulled out the client’s file and read her some of the beliefs she had recently eliminated: Money is scarce and hard to get. Mistakes and failures are bad. If I make a mistake and fail I’ll be rejected. You have to save your money for a rainy day. Taking risks with money is dangerous. I’m not deserving.

Shelly then asked her: “Regardless of what you learned in the course, do you think you would have purchased the house had you not eliminated these beliefs first.”

There was silence on the other end of the phone. Finally the client responded: “Probably not.”

Shelly then asked: “What did your friends buy or do to increase their income after they finished the course?”

The client answered slowly: “Nothing.”

In other words, you need the possibility for something to happen before it can happen. When you create possibilities, you see things you can do that you never saw before. And eliminating beliefs is the best way to create new possibilities.

So what do I do to accumulate wealth?

Although getting rid of beliefs is not sufficient to make money, it certainly is one of the most important things you can do if you ever hope to accumulate wealth. And if you take advantage of the possibilities that get created when the appropriate beliefs are eliminated, your chances of personal success and financial abundance increase exponentially.

What are you waiting for?

Missing Dr. Scott Lewis

The death of Las Vegas stage hypnotist, author and friend Dr. Scott Lewis has left me rattled.

When I heard of his sudden death in a freak accident in Australia early yesterday morning, I hoped it was a sick hoax.

But as I searched for reliable news bulletins, I realized it was true.

I am still processing this, as Scott was one of my best friends.

Scott began as a client of mine decades ago. Over the years, he became one of my closest friends. He took me to my first magic convention in Las Vegas. He bought me magic tricks for my birthday and Christmas. He introduced me to Vegas celebrities when he was their chiropractor.

Dr. Scott Lewis

Dr. Scott Lewis

He took me back stage at Vegas shows and had me hang out with the stars. He always introduced me as a star, and told legends like magician Lance Burton that I was a marketing genius and author of a book on P.T. Barnum. Scott always elevated my status in a room full of high level people.

He used to tell me his dream of having his own show. He had a lot of doubts, fears and reservations, but one day he decided to do it.

He was so scared, he dripped sweat and kept his notes on a stool on stage. Yet he got past his jitters and ended up with the longest running stage hypnosis show in Las Vegas history.

Many of my friends got to know Scott because he’d perform his comedy hypnosis show at marketing seminars. Many were hypnotized on stage, had a blast entertaining all of us, and still tell the stories of how it happened.

I loved his sense of humor. He was fun to be around. He visited me when I lived in Houston, and more recently outside of Austin. We talked for hours, shared stories, insights, hopes and dreams.

He was supportive of me when I went through family loss and health scares, and was supportive when I expressed my own big dreams. Numerous times he invited me to be his opening act at his Vegas show at the Riviera, where he said I could perform magic or sing my songs.

Though he turned to me for marketing advice, news releases, and encouragement, he was an idea machine and a product generator on the level of uber intelligent. Recently he sent me his new promotional flyer. I looked at it, shook my head in wonder, and wrote Scott a note, saying “It’s genius! I wouldn’t change a thing.” It was true.

We created hypnosis products together, coauthored a book on Las Vegas marketing secrets, worked together on a series of videos with Las Vegas show girls, and more.

Scott was very generous, too. He helped friends of mine quit smoking, lose weight, end pain, and stop bad habits, with hypnosis sessions he never charged to do.

We spoke on the phone a lot, emailed weekly, and continued to support each other in having fun as we make a difference in the world. He was very excited about getting to be in the Australia show he loved and admired, the one he was scheduled to perform in again when he fell to his death.

Scott was 50 years old. He didn’t smoke or drink, and was almost unhealthily concerned about health.

I remember giving him a ride in my Panoz roadster (the one Stephen Tyler owned and I later gave away). Scott had to lather sun block on his face before he’d get in. He was again doing his best to protect his health.

Yet what took his life was a fall off a balcony in Australia.

I’m still processing this news, and mourning the loss of my friend.

Is there a lesson here?

Here’s one —

I had a spiritual teacher once who said that in any moment, everything can be swept away with a pen stroke, an accident, or something else.

Knowing this reality, our job is to stay in the moment and do what needs to be done with gratitude, focus and passion.

I loved Scott Lewis, and will always miss him.

He lived his dream.

May you live yours.

Ao Akua,

joe

PS – Scott’s site is here. I just found this video of Scott and me playing and promoting from 2008. I laughed and cried at the same time. I loved the guy.

Get book today and get gifts!

Get book today and get gifts!

“You mean ho’oponopono?” I asked.

“Yea. That one. I loved your book Zero Limits but this new one blew the lid off my mind.”

“What did you like about the new book?”

“You really showed me how deep you go in using the method,” he explained. “I was amazed to read about your own dark night of the soul and how you went so deep to unravel how you attracted it and how you got out of it.”

“Thank you.”

New book out today!

New book out today!

“Most people think they are working on themselves when they aren’t; not really. Your stories reveal how to dig into the heart of change.”

“I appreciate that.”

“Plus I didn’t know I was doing ho’opo wrong,” he confessed. “Your book really opened my eyes.”

“Yea, a lot of people don’t get how the method actually works to bring on miracles.”

“I also didn’t know that that ho’opono-thing came from such dark beginnings.”

“Most people don’t,” I said.

“The final secret that you reveal took me a while to get,” he said. “I almost missed it until I realized you spelled it out in this new book and my mind wasn’t letting me see it.”

“Our minds are tricksters,” I said.

“Well, I loved this new book At Zero and sure hope you sell a lot of them as it can really help people.”

“Thank you again.”

“Well, I better finish your lawn.”
