Simplicity Gets You What You Want…

Posted By Patricia Ritsema van Eck On 11th August 2005 @ 03:23 In Miscellaneous | No Comments

Today I want to share something very personal with you about simplicity, getting what you want and a dear friend of mine. If you are short on time:

Otherwise…

I have a millionaire friend who asks $2000 for a one hour telephone consultation. Can you believe it?! When I first found out, I didn’t dare to contact him anymore. At a rough 33 dollars a minute I felt *nothing* I had to say could be worth wasting his costly time…

He’s been my friend for a while now, but when we first met there was nothing suspicious about him. He wasn’t bragging about how well to do he was. About how brilliant he was at doing business. About how cool it was to drive a Lexus. About how he doesn’t fly economy class ever. You know, the kind of things some rich folks like to show off with.

He did have one of those slick Italian leather bags to carry his laptop around with. That should have set me thinking. But otherwise you couldn’t tell from the looks of him how fat his wallet must be.

You see, we never spoke about business or marketing or making sales when we first met. We were engaged in discussing the great minds of this century. People like Naom Chomsky and Rupert Sheldrake — never mind if you’ve never heard of them. He did. I did. And that’s why we were having a good time together. We both love philosophy and science.

At some point I got myself into some serious shit. My friend had seen it coming and he warned me to be careful. But I didn’t listen. Frankly I had some dollar signs embossed in my eyes and when that happens… Well, you probably know how it is. You act on crazy impulses and you call it intuition. But really you are on the edge of reason…

A couple of weeks later I had to admit I made a BIG mistake. And I felt really bad about this. I had chosen to trust someone, while the evidence against it was pretty overwhelming. And I had chosen to ignore someone who had always proven to care about me. Who had stood behind me every mile of the way, even when he knew I was going way off track.

So I wrote him about how wrong I had been. And how right he was. And that he’d probably be mad with me. (I felt that I had betrayed our friendship. You know how your mind starts to play games with you when you’re feeling guilty.) Please accept apologies - etc. And frankly I thought he wouldn’t even consider it worthwhile to respond.

Much to my surprise, I got the following reply:

“Everyone makes mistakes and I’ll never find fault in anyone for trying their best to see the good in someone else. For that you should be applauded. That you trusted someone is not your failing. That someone betrayed your trust is their failing and theirs alone. I hope your dealings here don’t make you any less of the ‘Happy Heart’ Patricia everyone knows you for :-)

It was pretty soon after this I made the discovery of his telephone consultation fees. As honorable as his reply to me had been, it made me feel even more miserable when calculating what it had actually cost him to waste his time on warning me…

Anyway, at that point I decided to become a millionaire.

Aiming to be a millionaire can seem like an overwhelming goal. Especially if you are used to earning something like $100 or $200 a day.

However, that doesn’t mean it cannot be done…

Every 60 seconds someone in the world becomes a millionaire. There are literally millions of millionaires. And you could be the next. But before you get there, you have to start with working on the right mind set.

Do you agree that being a millionaire is a possibility?

If not you yourself, who can you name that has already achieved millionaire status? You can probably come up with at least a dozen names of people you know to be millionaires. Write them down too. (Hint: who’s your favorite movie star?)

The famous ones are just the tip of the iceberg…

Have you ever lived an a-ha-experience? A moment in which you suddenly came to a deep realization? Your paradigms shifted. Pieces of a puzzle fell into place. And after that the world was never the same again…

A-ha-experiences can happen on every age and with anything you believe in.

Like when you first understood that reindeers cannot fly through the sky and suddenly you realized the man in red is probably your next-door neighbor dressed up. Which explains why your mum had those packages hidden in the back of her closet, which then turned up under the christmas tree. Come to think of it… She didn’t even get mad when she caught you snooping through her bedroom. Instead she turned somewhat red and began to stutter when trying to explain to you that she was Santa’s secret helper…

Can you relate to that?

Realizing that you too could be a millionaire is a huge a-ha! I used to ‘joke’ about being a millionaire. The reason I say ‘joke’ is that - though part of me meant every word of it, another part was always going “Yeah, you a millionaire?! That’ll be the day…” This only changed for me very recently. It was actually my millionaire friend who shifted my paradigm.

After a couple of weeks of sulking I had picked up correspondence again. One day I showed him some manuscript I had written. He wrote me back a long feedback and finished this with:

“With a little bit of direction you’re going to be a millionaire.”

When that line sunk in - something just clicked inside…

Tell me: do you get what you want?

Because there is actually a science to this. A science my friend has applied for himself and for his friends on many occasions. And when you follow certain laws and rules, there is actually almost no way you cannot get what you want.

My friend showed it all to me. And what’s got me really excited is the fact he turned it into a multi-media course. With video clips, audios and pdf material he is teaching me how to get exactly what I want in less than 40 days.

I really love this. It is a perfect blend of heart and mind thinking. It has the ancient elements linked to rocked science. And it’s all in accelerated learning format, which means that all of your senses are shaken up and involved in the learning process. While at the same time: it really is all dead simple and easy.

When things are simple, they usually work…

Hey, you know what’s even more cool? As of today my friend is making this course of his available to everyone. There is no charge. All you have to do is go to his website and sign up for a membership. You will get 38 lessons which will take you about 15 minutes a day and change your life forever.

I whole heartedly recommened you take a look and get what you want. Now!
