The Wealthy Gypsy: Business man leaves desk never to return

PRESS RELEASE
The Wealthy Gypsy:
Business man leaves desk, never to return

New York resident David Wood left July 10 for a 10 day trip to Colorado, and 4 days later decided never to return.

He's living out of his suitcase and laptop, and is exploring what it is to be a "Wealthy Gypsy."

His apartment is being rented out via remote control.

He's been seen hiking into back country armed with Bear Spray in the Banff National Park, Canada, river rafting with speakers and authors from The Secret in Vail Colorado, and lunching with such thought leaders at Jack Canfield (of Chicken Soup for the Soul fame)in the Napa Valley.

David says: "It's amazing what can happen when you quit your job".

He's using the experience to improve his "Wealthy Gypsy Training Program" which helps people to replicate this very unusual lifestyle.

David has three staff whom he's never met.

Speakers and Authors Networking Conference

(I arrived in NAPA Valley for the second conference for the Speakers and Authors Networking Group (SANG), thinking I would be bored by all the business.

But I was BUZZING and flying the whole two days.

We’re talking about best selling authors, multi-millionaires and even billionaires, including Jack Canfield (from the Chicken Soup of the Soul series), Bill Bartmann, Ron LeGrand, Alex Mandossian, Stephen Pierce, Joel Comm, Russell Brunson, John Carlton, Armando Montelongo, Veronica Montelongo, Brendon Burchard, Mike Koenigs, Kevin Nations, Matt Morris, Simon Leung, and dozens more.

Wow - just one simple idea couldl doublel sales 400%.

I'm meeting people that can put me on stages in front of a thousand people, with just a word.

I've been wanting to really connect with Jack, and yesterday we had lunch and a good, real talk.

Instead of speed dating we did speed networking, and I have a juicy, NEW (again) title for the book and training program - stay tuned.

Wild Nights

WARNING: The language is direct and explicit and may offend.

From "Wild Nights", by David Deida....

Relationship is bondage, unless your love is larger than the cult.

Love is a wound. Love hurts. You must learn to live wide open; hurting open with love.

If you are bound to objects - even people you truly love - then you suffer, because they can’t deliver what you want from them.

These boys, they’re going to fantasize about sex with young women for the rest of their lives. And by the time the ladies are saggy and wrinkled, and the men are too old to care, it’ll be too late. They won’t have the energy to open beyond their shriveled concerns for a better life. A day without too much pain will be good enough. And when they start dying, they’ll be horrified.

No-one is willing to feel the bliss of the Great One, because they are wrapped up in sex, or wishing they were.

I was using the affection and flesh that now surrounded me to pad myself from the stark free-fall of utter surrender, from the nothingness of deep, open being.

The feeling of tragedy dissipated, leaving only a deep love, wounded to be sure, but also eternal.

One day Michelle, your breasts will hang like soggy pancakes and your ass will sag to your knees. You’ll wake up in the morning, put your dentures in and paint your rotting face, and wonder which of your friends died today.

She’s not your mother. As good as her love feels, as war as her love fills your heart, you are clinging to the breast and missing the moment’s depth. You are afaid to feel totally alone – that is, so open there is no other. NO OTHER.

You need an other so you can be assured of yourself. And the one you want, the one that gives you the most assurance, is your mother. You want to feel her warmth, her smell, her support, her devotion to you – you won’t let go of that.

On the surface, it looked like he and his teacher were at war. But the war was always already over, and love had won, even if the fight continued to appear on the surface.

“You have been given a burden of bliss”, Mykonos said quietly, but with absolute intention. “You know what you have to do”. “This burden is my gift to you”.

It’s time to sit down and have dinner with the monster. (this one from David Holloway)

MM #99: How Big Will You Play ?

1.Announcements/Offers

How Did These Coaches Set Up Their Businesses So Quickly?

You can save yourself the hundreds or thousands of dollars you may have paid a mentor coach or training school. After personally mentoring sixty coaches and founding a coach training school, I've compiled everything I know about starting a successful coaching practice in one easy-to-follow Manual.

And it's wonderful to see such huge results like this:

"I have just broken through the 50th client barrier! When I first read the Coachstart Manual, I had coached just 14 people, and thought '50 clients...no way!'. But just five months later, it's a reality! Thanks for all your help setting me up as a coach, I will always be grateful."

Daniel Midson-Short, Australia

“I wish I had known about the CoachStart Manual before I signed up with my training school. I could have saved myself almost £600!”

Clare Evans, UK

"I 'inhaled' the manual and loved it. You give very practical advice and I particularly liked the 'sample' dialogues that a coach might have with a prospect (warm and hot invitations) and the sample script. I practice it every chance I get. Thanks for such a great and inspiring Manual!"

2.FEATURE: How Big Will You Play?

The year is just over half over. How have you progressed with your career goals? What do you want for the last half of this year?

For the next six months, you can decide to play full out, reaching between 10 and 20 clients and exceeding $2000 per month in revenue. Or, you can aim simply to take on a couple of non-paying clients - it's up to you. You create your game.

Either way, one of the key principles of coaching is to get clear on what you will make happen.

If you're committed to this process, write down or print out the below and put it somewhere you will see it regularly. Then put in place the supporting structure(s) you have chosen and come back. Tell three people you are doing this and ask if they can think of a way to support you.

Target Date

By Dec. 31, 2008 or _________________.

(You can pick a closer goal date.)

Target Clients

By target date I want to be coaching ________ clients.

Target Income

And have a monthly income of $______________.

Support Structure(s)

_____________________________________________

_____________________________________________

_____________________________________________

_____________________________________________

(What will you have in place so you can reach your target goals? i.e. regular marketing time in your schedule, a Mentor Coach, a mastermind group.)
