Over seventy people flew to Austin, Texas from all over the country to have dinner with Dr. Haleakala Hew Len and myself last night.

It was a day of rain as they arrived; it’s a day of sunshine as they leave.

Why did they come?

None could say for sure.

Most said they “felt inspired” or “felt it was right” to fly four hours or drive six hours to get here for a dinner and a 90-minute conversation.

But all left with a light in their eyes that no one could deny.

Last night after dinner, as the seventy folks watched and helped, I questioned Dr. Len about his years as a therapist at a mental hospital for the criminally insane in Hawaii. During the time he was there, patients got better, though he never saw any of them.

Patients who were heavily sedated were getting off medications.

Patients who were in shackles were being freed.

Patients were getting better and being released in months

After two years, all patients were released.

Today that ward remains empty.

I’ve been fascinated with this story since I first heard it. I wanted to know how Dr. Len did it.

After all, how do you heal anyone by healing yourself?

Dr. Len explained how he simply works on himself; that everything he experiences is his own stuff. He has to take 100% responsibility for it. When he does, and when he cleans it, everyone involved gets better.

When he is handed a file for a rapist or a murderer, he notes what comes up within himself. He doesn’t see or judge the patient. He clears his own “stuff.” As he does, the patient heals.

What Dr. Len does is heal the “memory”, as he calls it, or program, as I call it, that was active in the patient.

As Dr. Len erased it in himself, it got erased in the patient.

How did he erase the shared memory?

By saying “Forgive me” and “I’m sorry” to the Divine.

I know it’s wild, but that’s how Dr. Len cleans.

Do that enough times and even mentally ill criminals get to go home again — as healthy adults.

I’m not going to try to explain all this here. We recorded last night’s experience and I may release the audios at some point (maybe on my podcast or as a bonus for my upcoming March 7 promotion).

Listening to the audios won’t be as fulfilling as being in the room and feeling the buzz of people awakening. But you’ll get a sense of the magic.

I’m also working on Dr. Len to let me write a book about his experiences and methods. Since I’ve spent the last three days with him, I believe I’m starting to wear him down. 🙂

After spending hours and hours of one-on-one lively discussion time with Dr. Len, on top of last night’s shared experience, I feel like there is so much to say, and share.

This is just a taste.

Consider: If he can use this cleansing method to heal an entire ward of mentally ill ciminals, what could you do with it?

Two nights ago I interviewed a famous sports hypnotherapist. The subject was “How to Have Super-Human Self-Confidence.”

I was excited about this call, promoted it for two weeks in advance, and paid extra to open the phone lines to hold more callers.

But on the night of the call, no one could get in — not even my own guest!

Talk about frustration. I grabbed my cell phone and called the conference phone provider. They put me on hold for 20 minutes — this is while my guest and hundreds if not thousands of people are cursing my name because they can’t get on the call.

We finally got to do the call, and it was phenomenal. You can hear it on my podcast at https://mrfire.com/podcast.html

But this adventure didn’t stop there.

Last night I was being interviewed on yet another call, this one about “Invincible Marketing.”

Again, I promoted this event weeks in advance, told people to call in early so they wouldn’t be blocked from being on the call with a sell-out crowd, etc.

And yes, the same thing happened again!

Hundreds to thousands of people couldn’t get on, including my guest interviewer!

I again grabbed my mobile phone, called the service provider, and was again put on hold for 10 minutes while they sorted this out, realized it was their problem, opened the lines up, and said they were sorry.

We went on and did the call, which I think was one of the best I ever gave. You can hear it online at https://www.mrfire.com/a/invincible.html

After the call last night, I sent a stern email to the service provider.

Someone instantly wrote back, apologizing, and saying they would have someone from their headquarters call me in the morning.

Well, it’s morning and still no call.

I find this “service” astonishing.

Success in business is as easy as doing what you say you will do.

Being very successful in business is as easy as doing more than what you say you will do, and doing it before you said you would get it done.

I don’t know about you, but I’m tired of people who take their customers for granted.

Let this be a lesson to all of us — myself included — to do self-checks to be sure we aren’t screwing up.

PS – Last night’s call on Invincible Marketing was truly powerful. You can access it at no cost from https://www.mrfire.com/a/invincible.html

PPS – The call on self-confidence was intense. You can hear it on my podcast (link on lower left). You can also grab a deal on my guest’s products, at least until March 1, at www.amazingconfidence.com Go take a look.

PPPS – The kitty above is my buddy, Tiger. He’s been with me about 15 years now. He doesn’t like poor service, either. Which means I better go feed him right now…

The happy, pizza-eating group of people in the picture you see are part of my Executive MentoringTeam.

They are smiling because they are one of the first in the world to see an exclusive private showing of the brand new movie, The Secret.

The long-awaited movie was supposed to be released to the world on Feb 15th. It’s been delayed due to interest from giant movie chains, network television stations, and global giants who want to buy and air the movie to the world.

Until the negotiations are done and the dust settles, the only way to see The Secret right now is by knowing someone in it (like me). Everyone filmed for the movie received an advance copy of it. We are allowed to show it in private groups, like I did yesterday for my mentoring team.

So if you know Bob Proctor, or Esther Hicks, or Jack Canfield, or John Assaraf, or Bob Dyole, or Bill Harris, or James Arthur Ray, or me, you might be able to see the movie before the public does.

So, what IS The Secret, anyway?

I’ve reviewed the movie elsewhere on this blog.

Other reviews are starting to appear on other blogs. I’m told Blair Warren will have one on his blog soon at http://www.BlairWarren.com

The movie is a masterpiece.

Inspiring and electrifying.

When it comes out, see it, buy it, get copies for friends and family, and tell the world.

This is the kind of event that can elevate humanity.

A fitness trainer I know looked at the recent photo of me and actor James Caan and exclaimed, “Eat more protein! You’re losing too much weight!”

Was he right?

While in LA, I had my blood work done and a nutritional profile worked up. The nutritionist called me when the results were in and exclaimed, “You’re eating too much protein! Cut it out!”

Was he right?

When the lab sent the blood work results back, I got a call with someone saying, “Your cholesterol is too high!”

Was he right?

I had a friend who is a medical doctor review the lab results and he said, “I think this is a false reading.”

A what?

He went on to explain that I was badly dehydrated the day they took my blood, so my levels were off. He didn’t think my cholesterol was high at all. And my protein intake was probably fine.

Interesting, isn’t it?

In every situation — whether health or marketing related — I think we need to get second opinions from professionals, and then compare notes and look at variables.

What appears to be reality may in fact be a “false reading.”

This is true in marketing, as well.

A mailing may not do well and someone will blame the list, when in fact it may have been a lousy headline…or a poor offer…or…?

Beware false readings.

PS – As a result of the temporary scare that I may have had high cholesterol, I discovered a physician-created new supplement that is guaranteed to lower bad cholesterol, raise good cholesterol, and also help prevent heart attack and stroke. This is pharmaceutical-grade, all natural, and proven to work — in only 30 days. It contains a “secret ingredient” that no other supplement on the market has. This “secret” helps prevent heart attack and stroke. I’m so excited that I invested $12,500 in the company just to insure that I’ll get the stuff as soon as it’s ready. I’d tell you more about it but the next batch of this special cholesterol-lowering formula won’t be ready for three weeks. Personally, I can’t wait. Stay tuned.

PPS – NLP/Hypnosis/Persuasion expert Kevin Hogan and I had a fun time at a photo session last summer. See the silly and not-so-silly pictures of us and study our body language (a specialty of Kevin’s) at http://kevinhogan.com/hoganvitale.htm See any false readings there?

I’m about to write the largest check of my life.

I’ve bought large houses. And expensive cars. And built my own gym. And Catarium. And an entire library for books.

I’m comfortable spending money.

But today I’m faced with spending more than ever before — for a giant publicity event to help bring global attention to my forthcoming books.

Truth is, I’m nervous.

I’m nervous because I’m afraid of what people will think.

What if they don’t like this PR stunt?

I was nervous when I released The Attractor Factor.

But it went on to become a #1 bestseller on Amazon and Barnes and Noble.

I was nervous when I began to lose weight.

But now I’m 80 pounds lighter and considered the Charles Atlas of the Internet.

Despite all the successes I can draw on from my past to remind me that everything works out in the end, I’m still sweating.

Why?

I think it’s because I want people to like me.

I remember hearing Rod Serling, the creator of The Twilight Zone TV series (who I met when I was a teenager), once say that he was as sensitive as anyone else to people’s comments and criticisms.

I can relate.

Just a few days ago someone who I considered a friend wrote me a fiery email, so hateful that it shot chills up my spine.

He mis-read, mis-interpreted, and missed the point of one of my blog entries, and in a website mention in my recent newsletter, and he shot through the roof with anger. He wanted nothing to do with me ever again. He condemned me, my experience, and my education.

It was not pleasant.

And that was from a friend.

Then there are the emails I get from complete strangers who don’t like one thing or another that I do.

Some liked me better fat. (It’s true.)

Some liked me better with a beard. (I looked “hip.”)

Some are blunt in telling me what they think, oblivious to how I may feel afterwards.

So here I sit, about to write a check that would make Donald Trump think twice, and I’m nervous.

But here’s the lesson:

In order to be outrageously successful, you can’t let yourself be affected by others.

You can hear what they say. Sometimes they have a point. But you can’t let yourself be stopped by what they say. You have to have an iron will.

Yes, I still care what people think. But in my heart I know I am being true to me.

My mission is to help people go for and achieve their dreams. I’m doing everything I can do make that happen. If people complain about that, then they’ll complain about anything.

Truth is, complaining is easy.

Creating is the challenge…and the joy.

I’m a creator.

And now I’m going to write that check.

PS – Consider: What positive thing would you do if you weren’t afraid of what people thought?

PPS – The above picture is of me and persuasion expert Kevin Hogan of www.kevinHogan.com We were hamming it up while my beautiful Nerissa www.thevideoqueen.com took pictures. We didn’t care what people thought. It was a fun time with a good friend. Check him out. His books are excellent.
