Tag: the book The Secret

I just learned that my first app — a quote of the day from me with other cool features you will love — is a Top 100 iPhone App under the Lifestyle category on iTunes.

This app is an easy and fun way to stay focused and positive and keep your energy at a high vibration — which as you know is the key secret to making the Law of Attraction work for you.

Plus, it’s just plain cool!

Take a sec and go see —

PS — I use a Blackberry phone so I can’t use my own app on it, but I also use an iPad (which I love) and I CAN use the app there. Check it out — http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/mrfirequotes/id471326131?mt=8

Following up on my last post about using the Law of Attraction to attract legendary rock and roll drummer Joe Vitale, I just completed the basic recording for my first singer-songwriter CD, Strut!, where I debut as the world’s first self-help singer-songwriter.

In the studio recording "Strut!"

Strut! features the other Joe Vitale, the world famous drummer who’s played with Joe Walsh, Dan Fogelberg, Neil Young, Linda Ronstadt, Stephen Stills, John Fogerty, Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, Peter Frampton, Jackson Browne, Bonnie Raitt, Beach Boys, Eagles, Ted Nugent, Peter Frampton, and more! For the first time ever, Joe Vitale meets Joe Vitale!

Strut! also features Glenn Fukunaga on bass. Glenn just completed a tour with legendary singer Robert Plant of Band of Joy and Led Zeppelin.

Strut! is being produced by Rubicon Artist Development, owned and operated by Daniel Barrett, lead singer of the award-winning band, Porterdavis.

Celebrating the recording of "Strut!"

Talk about doing what you love and having a blast!

My new book is out today!

Talk about Instant Manifestation!

When I needed a drummer, I instantly took a long shot and asked the other Joe Vitale. My recording dates just “happened” to be the ones he was available, as he was going on tour the very next day!

Having a clear intention, taking inspired action, and having support, will lead to the fulfillment of your dreams.

What are your dreams?

Ao Akua,

You haven’t lived until you’ve met your double.

I’ve been hearing about the other Joe Vitale since I was in college in the 1970s. He’s a legendary drummer who performed with everyone from Joe Walsh, Dan Fogelberg, Neil Young, Linda Ronstadt, Stephen Stills, John Fogerty, Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, Peter Frampton, Ted Nugent, Jackson Browne, Bonnie Raitt, Beach Boys, Eagles and more.

Whew! What a list of rock and roll legends. Drummer Joe even wrote a recent autobiography:

The other Joe Vitale

I figured the drummer Joe Vitale was proof of a parallel universe. In this one, I’m an author. In the other one, he’s a drummer.  And never the twain shall meet.

Until yesterday.

As you probably know, I already have one music CD out: Blue Healer. It’s blues meets New Age music. It’s designed to help you relax and heal.

What you may not know is I’ve been working night and day to record my next CD, a rocking album of original songs, all written, played and sung by me. They are songs of inspiration, motivation and transformation. I’m calling myself the world’s first self-help singer-songwriter and the CD is called Strut!

My next CD!

It’s an enormous undertaking to jump into such a project. I put together my trifecta: Daniel Barrett, Mathew Dixon and Guy Monroe. These are my coaches for my music. They are incredible and I love them.

When it came time to actually record my new music, Daniel said I needed a drummer. I thought for a minute and told him, “Well, it’s probably a long shot as he plays with the greatest of the greats, but what if I ask the famous drummer Joe Vitale?”

Well, I did ask Joe.

And Joe said YES.

Turns out Joe has been hearing about me for a long time, too. He once emailed me that people often ask him for advice about life. He writes them saying, “I can advise you on what kind of drum sticks to get.”

Joe flew into Austin and I picked him up. We instantly connected. He’s a non-stop storyteller, generous with his time and expertise, and as loveable as a kitten. I instantly loved the guy.

Joe Vitale meets Joe Vitale

Over a light dinner before the first day of recording my new CD, I told Joe my purpose for the music:

“I love music but too much of it plants negative messages that we absorb without thinking. The Rolling Stones singing “You can’t always get what you want” is programming us to believe in scarcity. I want to record music that is as beloved as the classics, but instead plants positive messages in you.”

Joe loved the idea.

As I write this, we’re about to record day two of Strut!

Sit quietly and you might hear us rocking…

Ao Akua,

joe

If you want money for something you believe in, I may have a way for you to get it.

This is not my service and I don’t make a dime if you use it or not. They don’t even know I’m writing this. I just feel this is too good not to share.

I’ve seen bands, artists, authors, photographers, film makers, and new businesses get the money they want this way.

I first heard about this service when a start-up company needed fifty grand to create their product. They used the service and raised 350 grand — six times more than what they asked for.

And I just saw a band I know raise over ten grand for their new recording.

I’m talking about http://www.kickstarter.com

You can list your project there, describe it with an engaging short video and a written overview, and offer incentives for people to invest in you. It’s a win win. I love it.

I’ve not listed any of my own projects on Kickstarter, but I’ve helped fund several people that I found there and wanted to see their ideas come into reality. All did.

Some of my projects

I can’t guarantee your project will get funded. Not all do. But everyone I know who used Kickstarter achieved their financial goals. It’s certainly worth a look. And it’s free to list your project.

One thing to remember: You still have to tell people about your project being listed on Kickstarter. In other words, don’t list your project and sit back and wait for people to find you. You have to go tell everyone.

One band I know (Patton Sparks), successfully raised what they wanted on Kickstarter. When I asked where the traffic came from to their listing on Kickstarter’s site, they said as far as they could guess it came from them telling their family, friends, fans, Facebook, etc. Almost no one poking around Kickstarter’s site actually funded their project. As always, spreading the word about what you are doing is essential.

Again, I’m not affiliated with Kickstarter. I love their noble service and urge you to check into them.  I believe they take 5% of what you raise as their payment, which means just ask for 5% more than what you need for your project. If you don’t raise your capital, you don’t pay anything.

It’s a glorious time we live in when services like this one help make dreams come true.

Ao Akua,

Joe

A few days ago I sent an email to my mailing list requesting people hold the vision of safety for all those affected by the Texas wildfires. I pointed out that more than two dozen scientific studies proved when a group holds an intention in meditation, that intention tends to come to pass.

People from all over the world sat and prayed, or visualized, or intended and requested that the fires diminish.

What happened?

Almost instantly a friend who had been evacuated from his home due to the fires wrote to me saying the smokes seemed to clear, the power came back on, and he was told he could return home safely.

Friends of mine who were preparing to evacuate were told they were safe.

Then I looked at the news and saw that while the fires were still burning and there was no rain in sight, most of the larger fires around my area of Austin, Texas were either contained, put out, or greatly improved in containment.

That’s progress, but we’re not done.

At last count, there were 180 wildfires in Texas. The smoke from them could be seen from space.

This is a very real emergency, with over 1,400 people having lost their homes in my area alone, so I am sincerely asking you to help right now.

How can you help?

Two ways:

1. Go here and offer whatever you can:

http://in.gredients.com/2011/09/05/central-texas-wildfires-how-to-help/

2. Send love to the fires and see them burn out:

I know it seems bizarre, but we are at a point where trying the bizarre might be the wisest next step.

Send love to the fires…Visualize a steady rain coming down for several days in Texas…Pray and request help from your connection to All…

Most of all, be at peace.

These fires probably represent our own inner anger.

Life is an out-picturing of our internal state.

Your inner sense of well being will contribute to the well being and peace of the planet.

Do whatever meditation or technique you know to reach that inner place of serenity. Use ho’oponopono/Zero Limits or Tapping/EFT, or anything else you know of or can think of.

Inner peace is the answer to outer peace.

Here’s one way to achieve that inner state of serenity:

I love Neville (who I wrote about in my book, The Attractor Factor). You can “Nevillize” the end of the fires by going to the end result of rain falling and fires out.

Imagine that it’s now next week and you are telling a friend how the fires in Texas were really scary until the sky opened and the rains fell and the fires went out…

Really see the future right now.

Nevillize the end result of what you want.

Make that future vision so real that it feels like it already came to past.

Or, as Neville signed a book I own of his, “Assume the feeling of the wish fulfilled.”

As Neville said, “Think of the world as a sounding box, echoing and reflecting what you have assumed.”

In other words, assume the reality that the fires are over.

Please do that right now.

Thank you.

Ao Akua,

Joe
