Episode 17: Defying the Odds

Eric Bailey“When you can put other people’s aspirations and goals a little bit higher on the priority list, then you allow yourself to give more of yourself. And when you can give more of yourself, it’s just a good feeling,” Eric Bailey

Eric was born with a bone disease in his knees. The doctors told him that he would never be able to play sports and would never be normal like other kids. His biological parents didn’t want to take on the responsibility to raise him so they gave him up for adoption. Yet, he defied the odds and became an elite basketball player and NBL legend.

Eric grew up in poverty, in a rough neighbourhood in South Central Los Angeles. His young life was surrounded by crime, drugs and struggle. Today he is a successful entrepreneur, a renown inspirational speaker and world class coach. He was voted as the Top 22 Motivational Speaker in the world.

Episode 15: How to Deal with Anger, Blame, Shame and Guilt

Shanti Zimmermann“Holding onto anger is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die.”Buddha

Everybody has to deal with anger, shame, blame and guilt from time to time. And it’s perfectly normal but when you allow anger and guilt to consume you then you must learn how to deal with them because these toxic emotions will eat away and destroy your self worth. If left unchecked they will rob you of your peace and happiness.

Episode 13: Everybody Matters to God

Geoff FreindThere are thousands of churches and pastors around the world preaching God’s messages, but unfortunately not many walk their talk.

I have great admiration for people like Major Geoff Freind and my wonderful friend Dennis Perry. They truly are walking in God’s footsteps. They dedicated their lives to feeding the homeless, caring for the sick and giving hope to the forgotten.

Major Geoff Freind has been spending over 34 years of his life offering emotional and spiritual support for thousands in need and helping them find a meaning in life.

Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill – free ebook

Napoleon Hill

In early 2000’s I met my late teacher Jim Rohn at a seminar in Sydney, Australia. During his talk he highly recommended this classic book.

He said “I recommended this book to millions of people around the world and only a handful of them would actually go out and buy it. If you go and buy it today it will set you apart from the 90% of the population.”

That’s all I needed to hear. I borrowed the money from my colleague and bought the book that very day.

This book transformed millions of lives around the world, including mine. I truly hope it will do the same for you.

Now that the book is in public domain there is no excuse for you not to own a copy. I wish to pass on this incredible book to you. I hope it will help you find whatever it is you’re looking for. All you need to do is apply the simple techniques described in this book.
