When I was 50 years old, I had accepted the fact that I was going to feel worse and worse as I got older and older. Thankfully, someone told me about a nutritional system that showed me that I was mistaken. Now, I feel better than I’ve felt since I was in my 20s, and I want everyone to feel the way I feel. Join me on a mission to have fun, take control, and change the world, one life…
Preparation pays off in business. It pays to have a system that gets you ready for any situation.
The ability to persuade can be one of the most powerful skills to learn in business and in life. Business presentations go nowhere if they don’t show people the wisdom of the opportunity.

Unfortunately, a storm came up before we started. So we decided to jog the next morning instead. Bright and early, we headed out on the sand. It was beautiful. We had barely got started when I told my daughter we should…
The other day, I was listening to a college football game while I was driving home. One of the announcers pointed out that the statistics were pretty even, but one team was winning because its players had made athletic plays at the right times.
