Here’s some comments that were written to me by one
of the Ultimate Success Program members regarding
Lesson 14 which was called:

“How To Use What Others Call Failure As
Your Ticket To Astounding Success”

He writes…

I had to really listen to and read this lesson repeatedly to
let it soak in, often stopping to have a little discussion
with myself about what I had just heard or read.

I knew this information was key, but it was initially
difficult for me to really get my head around and accept
and believe as true for me. Persistence paid off. The bottom
line is that up until now I have had a tendency to be at
the mercy of my negative thoughts and emotions.

Over the course of this program, I have sensed that changing
a bit. It came to a head with this lesson. Now, when I catch
myself having negative thoughts or feeling negative emotions,
I call them out for what they are. I identify them as just
that and I remind myself that feelings are not always fact
and that I can choose to look for the positive in situations
that initially appear negative.

It’s like I’ve got a new lease on life.

What a difference it makes to really understand and believe
that I CAN control my thoughts and direct my feelings.

I’m not sure if there is any way I can convey in words the
quantum shift that is for me. It feels like I have finally
turned a corner.

I’ve read a lot of success literature in the past & it’s easy
to agree with it in my head, but this program is different.

Because I committed myself to working it and because it is
not just reading, but also listening and writing, the
concepts are reinforced until I assimilate them and they
become mine.

It’s kind of like learning the multiplication tables. First
it’s just memorization and you do them haltingly because you
have to stop and work out in your head the ones you don’t
know. Then as you keep drilling on them you get faster and
then one day it becomes second nature and they are yours
completely.

That’s what is happening with these concepts for me.

They are really soaking in.

I’d like to let you know about something I’ve been up
to over the last year, and it’s open to the next 100
people who are positive and success-minded.

Here’s what others who are already in the program
have to say:

The neatest thing is that I am starting to think differently.

I am seeing and recognizing the failure attitudes and actions
that up to now I was engaging in unconsciously. I guess I
unknowingly trained myself to turn a blind eye to these
attitudes and actions so I didn’t have to take responsibility
for my own success.

The thing that has really made the difference for me with the
USP is that instead of reading a book and skipping the
exercises, I am actually writing out the answers to the
questions and taking the time to think about how to put what
I am learning into action.

Thanks Mark. This is really starting to pay off.

- - -

I am more self confident, more successful, with a can do
attitude an I do not let the negativity of others bring me
down. I start everyday with positive reinforcement and focus
on the good things in my life. I have developed more of an
attitude of gratitude and am less selfish and more giving.
I have become more focused and more self motivated to
complete all tasks that need to be accomplished in my work.

- - -

I don’t procrastinate as much and I am less fearful of
failing. I am moving forward and less fearful of trying new
things.

- - -

I have always lived with the sense that I wasn’t there on
the day the manual of how things work was handed out to
those around me. I have now discovered that part of this
lies in several holes in my thinking which neither my
parents nor my schools were able to teach to me. My current
experiences thus far did not help me to understand either.

By becoming aware of these holes through the USP program,
I am more able to:

* see opportunity and assess whether it fits with my big
reason why.

* be more relaxed around people, as I am more in control
of my own thoughts.

* work more organized meaning I get more done with the
same hours as everyone else.

* become more focused & concentrated mentally, allowing me
to better workshop ideas and concepts inside my head
before capturing them on paper.

* I’ve become strangely more excited about life in general.

* I have become more choosy with how I spend my time.

Hi –

You may have voted already.

You may be voting on Tuesday.

Here’s one last thing to consider before voting:

Most people these days vote because of their
own special interest topics, whether it be
pro-choice or pro-life, less or more government,
lower or higher taxes, trickle up or trickle
down economics, environmental issues, and
on and on.

I’d like you to consider one more thing.

It’s the concept that the reason you have the
freedom to consider all these issues and the
right to express your opinions and vote is
that the USA has a Constitution that declares
your rights as an individual … without the
USA Constitution you would not have these
choices, nor the right to discuss or vote on
them.

I will tell you, I’m not really much of a McCain fan,
but I will tell you why I am voting for McCain/Palin.

I was shocked last weekend when I heard this information
I am about to share with you with my own ears, and have
since read this with my own eyes…

In a 2001 interview, Mr. Obama has stated that he
views the USA Constitution as “a charter of negative
liberties”, it declares the rights of the individual
and says what the government may not do to you. He
goes on to say it comes up short because it doesn’t
detail what the government can do for you. He believes
the USA Constitution is flawed in this way.

Listen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iivL4c_3pck

However, Mr. Obama is mistaken.

The Constitution DOES clearly state what the federal
and state government is to do on your behalf, see
Article 1, Sections 8 and 9. And also Amendment 10
which states:

   The powers not delegated to the United States by the
   Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are
   reserved to the states respectively, or to the people.

   (notice the last three words that grant personal freedoms)

See:

http://www.law.cornell.edu/constitution/constitution.overview.html

I believe the majority of Americans, by far, if they
truly understand this most basic issue of personal
freedom, treasure the freedoms granted by the USA
Constitution and will see that Mr. Obama could never
be sworn in as President of the USA “to protect and
defend the Constitution of the USA”, he just does
not view our great country that way, he wants to
“change” it to his agenda and record…he would prefer
to debate and legislate the Constitution to fit the
morals of today (or should I say, lack of morals).

One more thought…

Whichever way you vote, just remember that in every
election, whether it be at the federal, state, or
local level, your personal freedom is always at stake
in every vote you make.

Make sure that your personal freedom, as granted by
the USA Constitution, is your measuring stick first and
foremost.

Your freedom is your power to succeed.

As always, my best to you –

Mark Hendricks

PS - If you are upset that I have discussed this with you,
please consider … it is “THEY” that tell us not to discuss
politics and religion, have you ever asked why “THEY” tell
us that? … it’s because the freedom to discuss both of these
empowers our freedoms to do so.

You can copy the letter below and send it to your elected representatives at:

http://www.congress.org - you must take individual action for us all to be heard

The American banking system looks very much like a “Pyramid Scheme” once you fully understand how they structure the various levels of lending from bank to bank, no wonder the “house of cards” will fall.

Take action, call and write your congressional representatives repeatedly, do not let up, your America is at risk (I am not an alarmist, but I am a concerned citizen).

- - -

True action to solve our banking crisis

I support and respectfully request that my elected representatives immediately begin the process to pass legislation known as the “Monetary Reform Act” as endorsed by the late Milton Friedman.

This proposed law would require banks to increase their reserves on deposits from the current 10%, to 100%, over a one-year period. This would abolish fractional reserve banking (i.e., money creation by private banks) which depends upon fractional (i.e., partial) reserve lending. To provide the funds for this reserve increase, the US Treasury Department would be authorized to issue new United States Notes (and/or US Note accounts) sufficient in quantity to pay off the entire national debt (and replace all Federal Reserve Notes).

The funds required to pay off the national debt are always closely equivalent to the amount of money the banks have created by engaging in fractional lending because the Fed creates 10% of the money the government needs to finance deficit spending (and uses that newly created money to buy US bonds on the open market), then the banks create the other 90% as loans (as is explained on our FAQ page). Thus the national debt closely tracks the combined total of US Treasury debt held by the Fed (10%) and the amount of money created by private banks (90%).

Because this two-part action (increasing bank reserves to 100% and paying off the entire national debt) adds no net increase to the money supply (the two actions cancel each other in net effect on the money supply), it would cause neither inflation nor deflation, but would result in monetary stability and the end of the boom-bust pattern of US economic activity caused by our current, inherently unstable system.

Thus our entire national debt would be extinguished – thereby dramatically reducing or entirely eliminating the US budget deficit and the need for taxes to pay the $400+ billion interest per year on the national debt - and our economic system would be stabilized, while ending the terrible injustice of private banks being allowed to create over 90% of our money as loans on which they charge us interest. Wealth would cease to be concentrated in fewer and fewer hands as a result of private bank money creation. Thereafter, apart from a regular 3% annual increase (roughly matching population growth), only Congress would have the power to authorize changes in the US money supply - for public use -not private banks increasing only private bankers’ wealth.

12 Parts of Every Successful and Profitable Internet-Based Business

Enjoy!

Mark Hendricks

Politics, a pat on the back, a kick in the pants

Times are pretty scary here in the USA for
many of us.

- job insecurity
- economic slowdowns
- financial meltdowns

…and the craziest presidential election I’ve
ever experienced in my lifetime.

First, the pat on the back…

Congratulations on being already successful.

That’s right, you’re already successful.

In spite of all the hardships you face, you’re
still standing and getting up each day to face
the new challenges thrown at you. Just look
back for a moment and realize how much you’ve
accomplished, pretty amazing, isn’t it?

Second, the politics…

I’m not here to discuss who to vote for, but rather
to mention that on November 5th (the day after the
election), you will know who will be the new Prez
of the USA and life in the USA (and many parts of
the world) will resume some sense of normalcy
without all of the political circus of confusion
that we are experiencing now.

Third, the kick in the pants…

Don’t let the politicians, the media, the bankers, or
anyone else control the actions you take to achieve
the goals you want in life.

I am seeing so many people just frozen, not taking
action, because of all the social issues of the day.

It’s you that truly controls your success, just look
back over your lifetime and see how many times you
had to take action to get to the next step. That is
the one constant in you being a success right now, and
it will be the one constant in you becoming more and more
successful in the future.

You must control your mind, your thoughts, and your
actions — even when you hear conflicting information
from all sources — you’ve got to sort it all out, make
decisions for yourself, and take focused action toward
your own goals.

I hope you will take all of the above in the best and
most positive light, it is meant to encourage you to
keep moving forward.

I just found a really cool tool that makes “word cloud” graphics.

Here’s what I did to create one that I will show you in a moment:

- copied the words from a long sales page, or any website, or
  and other text

- put the words into their first box (they have other ways to do it too)

- played around with the Randomize feature until I kind of liked
  what I saw

- then began customizing using a “right click” to access variables

I did a few and saved them - you’ve got to do a screen capture using
a free tool like the one found at:

http://www.mirekw.com/winfreeware/mwsnap.html

Then I added the words at the bottom left and right with a graphics
editor that I have: http://www.faststone.org/FSCaptureBeta.htm - it
does video capture too — there’s a free 30-day trial on it

- - -

Here’s the word cloud I made…

Have fun playing with the tool at:

There’s three live conferences that I know of going on
the weekend of October 23-26.

One of them is a Non-Salespitch event (it’s a private
educational and mastermind event), and I will give
you a link to it in a moment.

Another one you’ll probably be getting slammed with
the big launch salespitch announcements over the
next 3 days (it’s kind of like “gang-land marketing” :-).

Here’s the one I suggest you come to (the Non-Salespitch
event I mentioned a second ago):

http://internet-success-system.com/home.html

There’s ongoing support and training built right into it.

Enjoy your weekend!
