Are You Here?

The rains finally stopped here in Texas. All we have left are rivers where there used to be dry land.

The sun is out, the sky is clear, and I can return to the pool and read while I work on my tan.

Today I read the mind altering From Here to Here: Turning Toward Enlightenment by Gary Crowley.

It’s a wonderful companion to Zero Limits. In the beginning of it Crowley quotes Wei Wu Wei as saying:

“Free, we are not number One, the first of all our objects, but Zero – their universal and Absolute Subject.” (italics his)

The book contains insightful quotes and optical illusions to prove “you” aren’t in control of your life, so you might as well surrender to what is.

The book is a quick read unless you try to actually understand it. That will take time.

But the book is designed to carefully take you by the hand and lead you from here to, well, here.

It will definitely make you think, until the point where you decide to just watch the thinking. 

You can get a free sample at www.garycrowley.com

PPS – It’s raining here again.

Higher than "Zero"?

Forget hitting #1 on Amazon.

I’ve done that several times for several books.

So, what’s higher than that?

ZERO.

Let’s make people sit up and take notice about this mind expanding new book by Dr. Hew Len and me called Zero Limits.

Let’s make it go higher than #1 on Amazon.

Let’s make it bigger than Rock of Love or Harry Potter or Al Gore or Fire the Grid or even Jessica Simpson swimwear.

What does that mean?

Beats me.

But let’s find out.

Go to the link below and grab copies (and $300 in gifts) and give the copies as “seeds” to schools, churches, prisons, libraries, bus stops, hospitals, family, friends, clients, kids, dogs, cats, and anyone else you can think of.

Let’s spread the power of “I love you.”

www.collaborativepush.com/joevitale 

You’ll pay a little more for the book there (as opposed to www.amazon.com or www.bn.com), but you’ll also get over $300 in freebies, including a magazine subscription, audio, video, e-books, and much more.

Even if you already have the book, surely you know one or two people who would welcome a copy as a gift from you. (And you get to keep all the bonus gifts for yourself.) 🙂

The book has already been an Amazon bestseller three times — twice before it was even published, due to pre-orders.

And the 5-star reviews are coming in fast —

Mary Rose Lam said, “This will have a tremendously profound and timely effect on the universe at large. This is your best work thus far and I thank you again, for now, I see the inherent beauty of the divine mind.”

Peter Michel said, “You just set off an atomic bomb in the consciousness of man. Nothing will be the same again. ‘The Secret’ was nothing compared to this. Hold onto your hat.”

Dr. Marc Gitterle said, “There is real potential for this book to start a movement that will end war, poverty and the environmental devastation of our beloved planet.”

Best-selling author Debbie Ford said, “This riveting book can awaken humanity.”

Maverick marketer Craig Perrine said, “This book is like a stick of dynamite and the moment you start reading the fuse is lit.”

BluBlocker’s Joseph Sugarman said, “‘Zero Limits’ is Joe Vitale’s adventure into the most mind-altering reading experience of your life.”

Not everyone loves the book, of course.

Some people think it’s hype and hooey.

Well, is it?

Find out for yourself instead of relying on the biased opinions of others (including mine).

Get the book (and your $300 in gifts) at —

www.collaborativepush.com/joevitale 

Please share this special link to family and friends, post it on blogs, email it to your lists, and in any and every other way help get the inspiring message of “Zero Limits” out to the world.

Why am I so excited about this?

The book describes the three stages of awakening, and I would love for the majority of the world to enter stage three.

What is stage three?

Get the book and find out.

For Texans

I buried this news in yesterday’s post and later thought that wasn’t so bright, so here it is again, in broad daylight for all to see: 

I’ll be doing a book signing for Zero Limits in Wimberley, Texas on Saturday, July 28. It will be at www.ranchodeluxe.net from 1:00 – 4:00 p.m.

Rancho Deluxe is at 14010 Ranch Road 12 in Wimberley, TX; right downtown. 

Wimberley is between Austin and San Antonio, in the Texas Hill Country.

I rarely do book signings these days, so if you’re in or can get to the area, drop by and say hi. Feel free to bring friends.

The location is “on the square” in Wimberley, which seems so ironic, since the subject is ZERO LIMITS, which is more of a circle.

Go figure.

Ao Akua,

PS – No charge to attend but I’m hoping you’ll at least buy a book. 🙂

Creating Wealth

I’m having to swim upstream to read the book HERD, which I mentioned a week or so ago.

It’s a fascinating marketing book but so thick with ideas, theories and psychologies that I feel like I’m mentally drudging through quicksand.

So I was delighted to receive Steve Chandler’s new book, 100 Ways to Create Wealth.

As you know by now, I’m a fan of Steve’s writing. This new book is just as breezy, entertaining and enlightening as his others.

The book doesn’t so much reveal 100 “ways” to wealth as it offers 100 mind openers so you can spot and then receive wealth. 

Truth is, money is all over the place and the most unlikely people are finding it. (Watch Donny Deutsch’s TV show The Big Idea to get a real sense of this). Steve’s book, written with Sam Beckford, helps open your eyes.

One of my favorite parts of the book is right at the beginning, where Steve and Sam explain that they are writing this book so you can have wealth so you can help yourself and others.

I put that phrase in bold because I want you to get it.

Many people say money is evil and push it away. What they don’t seem to understand is the wealthier you are, the more good you can do in the world.

Money is a just a tool. When you have it, you can use it to build a lot of good things — for yourself, your family, and your world.

Get this book, 100 Ways to Create Wealth, and start expanding your mind about what is possible.

You deserve it.

So does your family.

So does the world.

Ao Akua,

PS – Steve’s site is at www.stevechandler.com Get all of his books.

PPS – Zero Limits is climbing the Amazon bestseller list — again! — yet I haven’t begun the promotion for it. The big day will be July 10. Stay tuned.

HERD

I’m reading several fascinating books right now.

This first one is something I think you need to drop everything and get if you are into marketing or psychology in any way, shape, or form.

In fact, I think anyone interested in crayon direct advertising, marketing, advertising, internet marketing, blogging, real estate marketing, branding, marketing strategies, marketing plans, email marketing, advertising agencies, search engine marketing, network marketing, free advertising, direct marketing,  web advertising, online marketing, website promotion, web marketing, marketing online, targeted advertising, promotional advertising, marketing mix, gb3 marketing, seo marketing, event marketing — you get the idea — needs this first book.

I’m talking about HERDHow to Change Mass Behaviour by Harnessing Our True Nature by Mark Earls. 

I haven’t finished the book yet but I’m finding it mind-expanding. Earls is British so many of the examples in the book are from Europe, not the US, which makes the reading fresh and stimulating.

I doubt the book actually reveals how to change the masses, ala Edward L. Bernays style, but I do suspect it makes you think about human nature in a more social way.

For example, the book says we are not as individualistic as we like to think. We join groups of like-minded individuals, but we don’t survive as a true individual.

This has important implications for anyone in marketing. I also think this is relevant whether you are in marketing or not. It reveals your core survival needs, which you may never have considered before. It also helps explain why social movements begin without any real leader or cause.

I’ll report more on HERD later, as I get deeper into the book. For now, I’m finding it thought-provoking — even if the author says I’m more closely related to monkeys than to gods.

PS — Zero Limits comes out next week! I am beyond excited. I’ve seen the published book and it is beautiful. It’s a true miracle, as it’s the first book to reveal the updated form of ho’oponopono.  If you go to www.zerolimits.info you can now hear the voice of my coauthor, Ihaleakala Hew Len, explaining Self I-Dentity Ho’oponopono.
