Joe Vitale

We’ve been staying in a beautiful home on the beach in Maui, Hawaii.

The home belongs to marketing legend and genius copywriter Joe Sugarman, father of the famous Blueblocker sunglasses.

I can finally tell you where we’ve been staying because tonight Joe gave me permission to do so.

Joe is a wonderful, generous, brilliant, spiritual and dear friend. I’m amazed that I know him at all let alone know him well enough to be allowed to stay in his home here in Maui.

But Joe is a little upset with me.

Joe is famous in marketing circles. Most people know of his breakthough books, such as Triggers. Or they know of his classic infomercials for his Blueblocker sunglasses.

He’s also a celebrity here on the island. He published a weekly Maui newspaper for many years, so all the movers and shakers have come to know his name, even though he sold the paper a year ago.

But Joe has seen something unusual during my time here with him.

When we go places, and someone yells out, “Hi, Joe!”, they aren’t looking at him.

They’re looking at me.

Turns out most of Maui has seen the movie The Secret.

Most of those who see it remember my face.

And when I show up someplace with Joe Sugarman, they are attracted to me, not him.

Joe’s not upset, of course. He actually prefers being reclusive. He’s a humble guy, which is another reason why I love him.

When I try to tell Joe how grateful I am to know him, he simply says, “You attracted me and all these good things yourself.”

Ao Akua,

PS – Joe has a new book coming out in late November. You’ll want it. Anything by Joe is a masterpiece. Go get his books on amazon. And then memorize them. And if you can find a copy of his now out-of-print earlier book, Success Forces, get it NOW. Joe told me that book could have been easily titled “Karma for Business People.”

PPS – Nerissa filmed Joe Sugarman, his wife, and me last night at dinner. Stay tuned for information on this rare footage, which we’ll post one day down the road. For now, Maui is calling me back to her…

Last night we had an inspiring dinner with Rhonda Byrne, the woman who created the hit movie The Secret www.thesecret.tv

She’s hiding to get some rest, just like me. As it turns out, we discovered we were on the same island at the same time. We quickly set up a time to visit.

The evening was magical. Rhonda told me one person watched The Secret 200 times in 2 weeks.

She also said that a recent study proved if you watch the movie just 7 times, that your brain would be transformed. Just seven times and The Secret is part of your life forever.

The evening was rich with insights. Nerissa caught some of them on video, which we’ll post later.

If you haven’t seen the movie yet, get over to www.thesecret.tv

PS – We’re headed out to shop for an island property. Magic lives. What’s your dream? The Secret can manifest it for you.

Last night I stood on a high cliff overlooking the ocean. A waterfall to my left. A full moon above me. I felt tears of happiness to be in that place. I felt like I walked into a painting and became part of it.

Today we walked under the bright sun, visiting shops along the ocean, buying books, clothes, and more. Shop owners were smiles and hearts. Discounts came easily. The moment was beautiful.

Tonight I relaxed in a hot tub while the ocean waves slapped the beach not far from me. I relaxed into the arms of the moment.

Each moment is gone yet remains alive in my mind.

Which is real — the reality or the memory?

Or – just this?

PS – Work is piling up back home. Sometimes it sneaks into my awareness and stresses me. I keep saying, “Be here now.” THIS is it. In this moment, all is well. Isn’t that true for you, too?

I took Nerissa’s hand today and said, “Let’s go increase our prosperity.”

We then set off on a wild shopping spree. It was exhilerating to buy things for ourselves and our friends. I even stunned myself by buying something for $12,500.

You read that right.

Twelve thousand, five hundred dollars.

But Ill tell you about that in a minute.

I almost bought a giant hand carved Tiki but it would be like shipping a small car back home.

I loved the feeling of just letting go, enjoying, and spending. It was all based in a solid feeling of unlimited prosperity.

The day made me think that you’d like to know how to increase your prosperity, too.

So, here goes:

There are two ways to increase your prosperity:

1. The first way is to buy something nice for yourself that makes you feel great joy.

You don’t want to go into debt or to fall into guilt, but you do want to feel like you are appreciating yourself. If you can buy something for yourself that is a stretch for you, that makes you feel a wee bit uncomfortable while also exciting you, all the better. This helps you increase your ability to deal with more wealth.

2. The second way is to give money away.

I wrote about this in my book, The Greatest Money-Making Secret in History. The idea is to give money to the person or place that has inspired you. One day that might be a waitress or waiter; another day it might be an author or speaker; yet another day it may be a church or other organization. The point is to give with a sense of appreciation.

In both approaches, you are sending a signal to yourself as well as to the universe (whatever the energy of all that is means to you), that you are happy, grateful, and ready for more. There’s real magic when you do these steps.

A while back I told you about buying a gold plated lighter for $612. It became a tool for testing one’s prosperity IQ.

Well, today I topped it and have increased the Prosperity IQ test.

Today I ordered a Rolex watch.

It will have to be made for me by Rolex in Switzerland. It may take six months. But it will be a wearable work of art.

Clearly this purchase is a prosperity increasing event for me. I was once homeless. I didn’t own a watch. Today I ordered a Rolex. Massive difference.

As I mentioned above, I told Nerissa on the way to the jewelry store, “Let’s go increase our prosperity.”

And that’s what I did, using one of the steps I described above.

Later, when we had lunch, the server was so loving, helpful and happy, that I gave her a huge tip.

That’s applying the other way to increase your prosperity.

You can do this, too.

You don’t need to buy a Rolex. But you do need to be good to yourself.

And if you aren’t ready to do that, then give money away. Start small but get a little uncomfortable. Show the universe that you are trusting.

Either way, you will be joining the flow. After all, money needs to be circulated to help the economy, which helps everyone.

Even you.

It’s raining as the ocean waves pound outside my ears. I thought about how the mind generates thoughts. It’s a thought projector. It’s not as important as the screen the thoughts are projected on. Freedom comes from being the screen.

Now there’s a thought for you.
