My Mentor Jack Zufelt

I have been blessed able to meet Jack and be my mentor and helping me how to find my core desire and how to achieve what I want in LIFE.I realize that most people don’t know what they want. They can not identify their core desire. Mark Twain said ” I can teach anybody how to get what they want out of life. The problem is I can not find anybody who can tell me what they want”Core desire create emotions that originate from your heart. Dalai Lama said ” I believe that we are like instruments. Whether the instrument is used constructively or poorly depends on us. We have a good mind and a good heart. If we combine these two - education of the mind and the compassion of the heart - then our contribution will be constructive…You will have the determination, optimism, patience, courage, and faith to overcome all obstacles”
Jack is a highly paid international speaker and trainer, not to mention having had over 50,000 in a downline earning a high 6-figure income in Network Marketing Business.

George Bush

at the bottom and built an organization that produced a
monthly income of more than $80,000 a month.

Success University "Guarantee Program Start NOW..."

The World Tour was a SMASHING success! Affiliates in the United Kingdom, South Africa, and Singapore devoured the entire stock of advanced copies we reserved for the tour...
This web page will most likely be taken down within 24-48 hours because I'm sure we'll sell out of the next 20,000 copies (only 400 orders of 50) right away. When we sell out of the remaining copies we have in stock, you'll have to wait 6-8 weeks for our re-printing. (Plus an additional 2-3 weeks for shipping!) You definitely do NOT want to put your business on hold for that long so I'm encouraging you to get your copies now before it's too late.
Here's why you want to reserve your supply of Empower Magazine right NOW…
If there were something different you could be doing today that would make your business many times more successful than what it currently is, wouldn’t you want to know about it? Who wouldn't right?
It’s that “something different” that I want to talk with you about.
As a Success University affiliate, you have at your disposal the best marketing tools around. Tools that undoubtedly offer you the adrenalin-charged potential of generating upwards of $40,000 a month in RESIDUAL INCOME.
Obviously, not everyone is ready to max the current system out to reach the apex of their potential. Many people are thrilled with an extra $2,000 or $5,000 a month.
However, we believe, as I’m sure you do, that there’s always room for improvement.
Introducing a Tool We Invested Over $400,000 in
That Could Potentially DOUBLE, TRIPLE or Even
QUINTUPLE Your Income This Year...
We’ve found that improvement all right. We left no stone unturned to find it because we take your financial success seriously. The more money you make, the more successful we become as a company and the more lives we'll be able to ultimately change for the better. Your success reflects on our reputation for excellence. We’re 100% committed to go the extra mile to guarantee you reach your financial goals.
Be that living in a plush new home, driving a BMW or Mercedes, going on fun-filled exotic vacations or simply having enough financial breathing room.
While our previous lead-generation system we’ve meticulously developed for affiliates is top notch… we’ve found another approach that’s flat out proven to be the BEST LEAD-GENERATION METHOD in all of network marketing - it’s a runaway success virtually every-time it’s applied.
In our research, we discovered other companies in the network marketing industry were triggering EXPLOSIVE GROWTH through the use of 3rd party magazines – as lead-generation tool.
These were professional magazines done in newsstand quality that have even been sold in bookstores.
These magazines didn’t merely offer ad space to present the opportunity of a company - No, their articles and stories were all about the company, explaining how the company started, its mission, its products and services, and how the home business opportunity of this company works.
The lush, full color, world-class writing and presentation of these magazines make the company come alive to the reader, and virtually sells him or her on joining the featured company in that particular issue. These magazines bring instant credibility to your business.
We worked day and night with the publishing company to give you the most impressive magazine they've ever done, Empower Magazine featuring Success University!
We’re especially thrilled that our particular issue of Empower magazine will feature anticipated articles by Suze Orman, host of the Suze Orman show on CNBC and author of best-selling books on personal finance and… John Maxwell, the internationally acclaimed leadership expert who’s trained over one million leaders worldwide.
Plus, our partnership with Feed The Children, a non-profit organization dedicated to helping starving children will be featured.
Our issue of Empower magazine will also include a dual-disk audio CD and DVD that features our company and opportunity. We invested $50,000 into creating this DVD presentation using award-winning photographers, art directors, marketing directors, and more. Empower Magazine is a complete print, audio and video presentation that’s designed to do one thing – BUILD YOUR BUSINESS!
Prospects get a full entertaining multi-media presentation that methodically sells enrollment in Success University as a member and as an affiliate. Every “what”, “when”, “where”, “why” and “how” is covered in this world-class presentation system which uses state of the art graphics and irresistible print copy.
The best part is, it’s not an over the top hard sell... once you see these presentations you’ll be blown away at how persuasive they really are without coming off as salesy. That’s the power of a third-party endorsement, which these magazines do for your business.
So there’s no “pucker” factor, there’s no fretting over someone feeling like you’re twisting his or her arm to do something. The entire magazine system takes rejection and anxiety out of the equation of recruiting and generating commissions.
This new lead-generation tool we’re introducing to affiliates has a spectacular history of success for other companies. It’s not exactly new. Even since the world tour, we’re already seeing the same results with our affiliates! Listen to this…
It’s a Tested and Proven Tool that Historically
Multiplies the Size of Teams & Incomes...
Even companies that have been around for decades (being well past their "momentum"stages) such as Pre-Paid Legal… Primerica Financial Services… Reliv International… USANA… and so many more have exceeded growth expectations using this tool. Now’s your chance to see your income soar!
Listen to what Harland Stonecipher, Founder &President of Pre-Paid Legal Services, Inc. has to say about using magazines to build his company…
“It’s a magic wand. This magazine is the best recruiting tool that I’ve seen in more than 30 years. With the magazine, anyone can do this business. In 2004 we recruited 107,000 new Associates. In 2005 we recruited more than 242,000 new Associates, a 125 percent increase, and we didn’t do anything different in 2005 than we did in 2004 other than the magic wand, the magazine.”
John Addison, Co-CEO of Primerica Financial Services says…
“The most powerful and best-selling tool in Primerica’s history.”
Angela Loehr Chrysler of National Companies, Inc. exclaims…
“You really cannot fail when you use this magazine as a recruiting tool unless you don’t promote it.”
Gary Raser, President of The Limu Company reports…
“The first month that the magazine was in our hands, sales/recruiting increased over 40 percent over the previous month.”
This tool is that powerful – we didn’t spend over $400,000 for nothing!
As you know, our team at Success University has recently finished the worldwide tour to London, Singapore, South Africa (Durban and Johannesburg), and Dallas to launch this issue of Empower magazine to our affiliates.
It was a smashing success. Affiliates practically stormed each event to get their copies of this issue of Empower magazine. They saw and understood exactly why they must have this magazine to EXCEED their growth and income goals, as I’m sure you do too. In fact, we’ve ALREADY gotten floods of success stories of affiliates using the magazines to recruit other superstar affiliates.
All advanced copies ran out very quickly. We suspect the same will happen again as today we’re giving you first crack at the next 20,000 copies of Empower magazines we have purchased. That’s only 400 orders of 50 still available so you have a very limited time to secure copies for yourself. Here’s your chance – don’t make the mistake of missing out.
Having this magazine in your marketing toolbox is the difference between using a chainsaw or a butter-knife to cut down a tree – this magazine being the chainsaw of course.
Get as many copies of this issue of Empower magazine in your hands as possible. Many leaders have purchased 1,000 copies or more. Then let those magazines do the talking and the convincing for you to secure your financial future.
Here’s how they work:
First, bring the magazines in your car or in a briefcase, backpack or work folder when you go out.
As opportunity arises, leave them with prospects, at community networking events, everyone you bring to business events or meetings, at waiting rooms, lobbies of places you frequent, give to inactive contacts, to everyone you know, everywhere you go. You can even mail them to people in your country or even overseas to grow an international business for yourself.
Note: Be sure to put a label or staple your business card to the back of the magazine.
Simply hand out the magazines to people, and then follow up with them within 24-48 hours to see if they read the magazine. Your goal is to hand out 2 a day and always have 10 magazines in the hands of others to follow up. We like to say… “Hand out 2 a day, keep 10 in play!” Let the magazine do its magic for you. It’s truly as simple as that.
The newsstand price for an issue of Empower magazine is $5.95. Fortunately we’ve secured a deal with the publishers that let’s you get copies of this magazine at a significant savings. But the requirement for us was that our affiliates had to purchase 25 copies minimum at a time. We think that’s fair enough.
Looking at the table above you’ll notice that we recommend you go with the monthly auto-ship of 50 magazines a month. That’s because we’re building the entire culture of Success University around this lead-generation tool as our #1 prospecting tool. The key is to hand out two a day and keep ten in play (always have 10 people to follow up with).
These magazines are statistically proven based on other companies results to allow you to recruit 2 people out of every 10 magazines handed out and followed up on. So by simply handing out 50 per month, that’s 10 new personal enrollments each and every month.
While that alone is exciting, what’s even more thrilling is that out of those 10 people, most of them are going to go on a 50 per month autoship themselves. If all 10 did the same, that would be 500 magazines being handed out in YOUR organization starting the second month. Based on the same enrollment percentages that would be 100 new students in your organization.
Take that out just one more month and the numbers get to be staggering… 100 affiliates handing out 50 per month is 5,000 magazines per month being handed out in YOUR organization producing 1,000 new students!
Obviously not everyone’s numbers will work out just like this, (and we certainly cannot guarantee such explosive growth statistics) but you can clearly see why some companies have grown from 20,000 members to over 100,000 in only one-year using this tool… and how others have enrolled approximately 120,000 more members than they did the previous year just because of this magazine.
Success University has Taken this Tried & True,
100% Proven Method of Building a Business and
Taken it to a Level Never Before Seen in the Industry…
Many other companies have simply used this magazine by itself to grow their affiliates businesses with ease. And they have experienced tremendous success.
I realize that we could simply roll this magazine out, make it available to our affiliates, and allow you to experience very good success. Based on the uniqueness of our product line and opportunity, I’m 100% certain we would do very well.
But for those of you who know me, I’m not satisfied with “very good” results. I ONLY accept “massive” results for the success of our Success University affiliates.
I sat up night after night brainstorming a way to make this the most dynamic marketing system that any company has ever released. In fact, Tony Michael, our VP of Sales and I literally went through hundreds of ideas and spent over a hundred hours to create this program for you.
When we came up with this concept in the middle of the night, we instantly knew that we had come up with the single greatest plan that any company has ever come up with for ANY marketing tool that’s ever been released in the industry… A plan that allows virtually anyone, including you, to earn a full-time income from home by the end of one year.
This is something that NO other company has ever done on the level we are…
We realized that in order to provide you and your team the confidence you need to follow a simple system of success, we must offer a GUARANTEE that makes following the system an absolute no-brainer…
FINALLY, a company that puts its money where it's mouth is!
You are among the very first to hear about our Iron-Clad $50,000 a Year Guarantee…
$50,000 a Year Income Guarantee!
There’s absolutely nothing to lose. Go ahead, test out and use these magazines to expand your business for one full year. Our guarantee covers your success and guarantees that you’ll be earning a $50,000 a year income at the end of one year.
(That’s $1,000 a Week!)
Here's how it works:
Simply get on the 50 magazines a month auto-ship plan and stay with it for a year. Just hand out all 50 magazines each month, put your prospects contact information in your back office (name, phone number and email) and follow up with each person. If you’re not earning at least $50,000 per year in income after 12 months, then let us know and we’ll gladly refund your entire investment spent on the magazines.
So there’s absolutely no risk, none – to you!
Your batch of Empower magazines will be true assets – they’ll work tirelessly, 24/7, all day, all night, even on Holidays to MAKE YOU MONEY.
Through these magazines and their accompanying DVD and CD presentation you will have the key to unlocking the money vault. Enjoying the rich rewards of a high six-figure income is suddenly possible for you like it never was before. All the finer things in life can now be yours. But you must take that next step. I can’t do it for you.
Those who don’t see the remarkable opportunity here will find themselves 6-months to a year behind everyone else. You know what to do, remember, your investment is COMPLETELY GUARANTEED to make you at least $50,000 per year in income or you’ll get a refund check in the mail. (Or on your Global Cash Card) Simple as that.

Establishing Dreams and Goals
Jim Rohn's Second Pillar of Success: Goal-Setting
As you know, we are focused on the Second Pillar of Success this month - Goal-Setting. Here is an overview of the four main components we will cover this
month:
1. Evaluation and Reflection. The only way we can reasonably decide what we want in the future and how we will get there, is to first know where we are right now and secondly, what our level of satisfaction is for where we are in life. As we focus this month on goal-setting, our first order of business and our topic last week was evaluation and reflection.
2. Dreams and Goals. What are your dreams and goals? Not related to the past or what you think you can get, but what you want. Have you ever really sat down and thought through your life values and decided what you really want? This isn't something that someone else says you should have or what culture tells us successful people do or have. These are the dreams and goals that are born out of your own heart and mind. These are the goals that are unique to you and come from who you were created to be and gifted to become.
This week we will show you exactly how to find out what you want from life.
3. S.M.A.R.T. Goals. S.M.A.R.T. means Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic, and Time-sensitive.
Specific: Don't be vague. Exactly what do you want?
Measurable: Quantify your goal. How will you know if you've achieved it or not?
Attainable: Be honest with yourself about what you can reasonably accomplish at this point in your life - along with taking into consideration your current responsibilities.
Realistic: It's got to be do-able, real and practical.
Time: Associate a timeframe with each goal. When should you complete the goal?
We will spend some time next week looking at how to apply the S.M.A.R.T. test to your goals to make sure they are as powerful as they can be!
4. Accountability. Think of the word "accountable." It means to "give an account." When someone knows what your goals are, they help hold you accountable. Whether it is someone else going through this program with you (have you thought about inviting a friend to join you on this one-year
journey?) or just someone you can give the basic idea to, having a person who can hold you accountable will give you another added boost to getting your goals! In Week Eight we will show you how to set up an accountability partner.
This week we will be discussing Part Two - Establishing Dreams and Goals.
One of the amazing things we have been given as humans is the unquenchable desire to have dreams of a better life. But even better than just the gift of dreaming, we also have the ability to establish goals to live out those dreams.
Think of it: we can look deep within our hearts and dream of a better situation for ourselves and our families, dream of better financial lives and better emotional or physical lives, and certainly dream of better spiritual lives. But what makes this even more powerful is that we have also been given the ability to take action and pursue those dreams and not only to pursue them, but we possess the cognitive ability to actually lay out a plan and strategies (setting goals) to achieve those dreams. Powerful! And that is what we will discuss in detail in this week's lesson--how to dream dreams and establish goals to get those dreams.
What are your dreams and goals? Now let me clarify here, this isn't what you already have or what you have done, but what you want. Have you ever really sat down and thought through your life values and decided what you really want?
Have you ever taken the time to truly reflect, to listen quietly to your heart, to see what dreams live within you?
Your dreams are there. Everyone has them. They may live right on the surface, or they may be buried deep from years of others telling you they were foolish, but they are there.
Back when I met Mr. Shoaff, he put me to work by asking the hard questions that got me excited about my dreams and helped me to translate that excitement into strategic action to pursue all that I wanted. And now I'm going to walk you through the same disciplines that will help unleash the power of the dreams inside each of you.
So how do we know what our dreams are? This is an interesting process and it relates primarily to the art of listening. This is not listening to others; it is listening to yourself. If we listen to others, we hear their plans and dreams (and many will try to put their plans and dreams on us). If we listen to others, we can never be fulfilled. We will only chase elusive dreams that are not rooted deep within us. No, we must listen to our own hearts to hear the dreams born out of the passions and desires we each uniquely possess. Quiet yourself and listen. Just like when you are quiet enough to hear your own heart beating within your chest, your dreams have their own rhythm that beat within you and all you have to do is get quiet enough to hear the beat.
Now let's take a look at some practical steps/thoughts on hearing from our hearts on what our dreams are:
Take time to be quiet. This is something that we don't do enough in this busy world of ours. We rush, rush, rush and we are constantly listening to noise all around us. We must not get faked out by just being busy. Instead we must constantly ask ourselves the question, "Busy doing what?" In other words, are the activities you are participating in moving you towards your goals? If not, then work to eliminate those things and replace some of that time with quiet.
The human heart was meant for times of quiet, to peer deep within. It is when we do this that our hearts are set free to soar and take flight on the wings of our own dreams!
Schedule some quiet "dream time" this week. No other people. No cell phone. No computer. Just you, a pad, a pen, and your thoughts (you get to do this in the workbook exercises this week).
Think about what really thrills you. When you are quiet, think about those things that really get your blood moving.
What would you love to do, either for fun or for a living?
What would you love to accomplish?
What would you try if you were guaranteed to succeed?
What big thoughts move your heart into a state of excitement and joy?
When you answer these questions you will feel great, and be in the "dream zone." It is only when we get to this point that we can truly realize and begin to experience what our dreams are!
Write down all of your dreams as you have them. Don't think of any as too outlandish or foolish - remember, you're dreaming! Let your thoughts and pen fly as you take careful record.
Now look at your list and prioritize those dreams. Which are most important?
Which are most feasible? Which would you love to do the most? Put them in the order in which you will actually try to attain them. Remember, we are always moving toward action, not just dreaming.
Now here is the big picture of why I'm asking you to take part in this exercise.
Life is too short to not pursue your dreams. Someday your life will near its end and all you will be able to do is look backwards. You can reflect with joy or regret. And we all know that joy (or disciplines) weigh ounces while regret weighs tons. Those who dream, who set goals and act on them to live out their dreams are those who live lives of joy and have a sense of peace when they near the end of their lives. They have finished well and for that they possess a sense of pride and accomplishment, not only for themselves but also for their families. And that feeling is priceless.
Remember: These are the dreams and goals that are born out of your heart and mind. These are the goals that are unique to you and come from who you were created to be and gifted to become. Your specific goals are what you want to attain because they are what will make your life joyful and bring your family's life into congruence with what you want it to be.
As you know, we are focused on the Second Pillar of Success this month - Goal-Setting. Here is an overview of the four main components we will cover this
month:
1. Evaluation and Reflection. The only way we can reasonably decide what we want in the future and how we will get there, is to first know where we are right now and secondly, what our level of satisfaction is for where we are in life.

Measurable: Quantify your goal. How will you know if you've achieved it or not?

Which are most feasible? Which would you love to do the most? Put them in the order in which you will actually try to attain them. Remember, we are always moving toward action, not just dreaming.
Now here is the big picture of why I'm asking you to take part in this exercise.
Life is too short to not pursue your dreams. Someday your life will near its end and all you will be able to do is look backwards. You can reflect with joy or regret. And we all know that joy (or disciplines) weigh ounces while regret weighs tons. Those who dream, who set goals and act on them to live out their dreams are those who live lives of joy and have a sense of peace when they near the end of their lives. They have finished well and for that they possess a sense of pride and accomplishment, not only for themselves but also for their families. And that feeling is priceless.
Remember: These are the dreams and goals that are born out of your heart and mind. These are the goals that are unique to you and come from who you were created to be and gifted to become. Your specific goals are what you want to attain because they are what will make your life joyful and bring your family's life into congruence with what you want it to be.
