What is Spirituality?

As a Soul Coach I am often asked what is spirituality? To me spirituality means that you have an inward feeeeeeeeeeeeeling of a spirit or power greater than you. It also means you can turn to this spirit or power or God with your life issues and get courage and guidance. It is the outside relationship you feeeeeeeeeeeel with something greater than yourself that gives you strength and power. And finally, it is the combination of faith and hope and love that you can live by which will make your life experience more EXTRAordinary.

Soul coaching is my process to help people discover who they are and to develop and strengthen their spiritual connection. It is a way to set yourself free and deeply know who you are and honor and love yourself.

Yours in Living an EXTRAordinary Life,

7 Deadly Mistakes Network Marketers Make

Network marketing is a great way to have a business, create income, freedom and a life and lifestyle. The problem is most network marketers make some or all of these 7 deadly mistakes and then don't make money from network marketing.

Here are the mistakes and what to do about them!

Mistake 1: They believe they can get wealthy fast doing little or nothing

Sure that sounds great but the truth is building any business takes time and energy. It would be great to imagine yourself on a beach in Tahiti while money rolls in and you do nothing. You can't start a business that way, though! Many network marketers fail just because they believe they don't need to work.

You wouldn't start up a restaurant and then sit home and do nothing! You'd work that business and take it serioulsy as a business! I am not saying you have to work it full time, but you DO have to work at it.

Money flows in to those who are persistent and who work at network marketing.

Mistake 2: They believe they don't have to market and sell.

They believe the company will feed them leads or that CD's or DVD's or meetings or 3 way calls will bring them all the customers and business associates they need. So, they have no background in sales and marketing and don't learn those skills. Again, if you started your own business you'd find ways that are comfortable for you to market and sell.

Mistake 3: They believe they can market solely through the Internet

Sure you can get leads from the Internet and some companies have great lead generators and autoresponders for you to use. But here is the catch. People buy from people and people join a team because of people. You must be willing to spend time talking to leads and building relationships with them. Without the personal connection, you'll have leads and no business and make no money.

Mistake 4: They believe the product/company will sell it self

No matter how hot the product or service or industry nothing sells itself. If you believe this hype you'll end up doing nothing and making nothing. If you have a product/service you are passionate about that is great, but they won't sell themselves. You still need sales and marketing and relationship building if you are going to succeed. Sure the company might succeed, but I am talking about YOUR success!

Mistake 5: Anyone can do it

No the only ones that do it successsfully are the ones willing to build relationships, speak to people, share the products/services and opportunity and use marketing and selling skills. People willing to learn these skills and these processes and then make them their own and do them regularly and consistently WILL make money... those who don't do these things can not be successful.

What I want you to get is that network marketing can be done well and you can make a lot of money at it (I know as I do!) and coach others to also. It is done by learning skills and tools, putting those to work and going through the process of self growth and business building.

If you are willing to learn and work a business, I think network marketing is a fantastic choice!

Spiritual Health is Essential For a Healthy Life

Most people are so focused on caring for their physical body; they forget to care about their emotional and spiritual body. They don’t see themselves as spirits having a human experience. Even if you don’t agree that you are a spirit having a human experience, I am certain you do agree on having some spiritual nature or essence.

Our lives are comprehensive and include mind, body and spirit. When you fulfill your spiritual health you have a more joy-filled life and feeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeel more connected to others and to yourself.

Spiritual health is a belief in a spirit or power that is greater than you and that has the wisdom upon which you can rely. It is recognition of a relationship with something outside of you. Spiritual health includes having a healing attitude that you bring to problems in your life experience as well as self-love and self-acceptance. Here are the keys to spiritual health to create YOUR healthy life:

Letting go:

Not holding guilt or control and forgiving yourself and others. Forgiving and forgetting and not holding hate or bad feelings. Letting go of the burden of anger to increase your own well-being.

Gratitude:

Being thankful for your life and all the blessings you receive, even the smallest ones. Instead of living from negative and self-defeating thoughts shifting to appreciation and positive aspects of people and things. When you are grateful you allow in more health and wellness in your entire life!

Feeeeeeeeeeeling Peaceful:

Choosing to feeeeeeeeeeeeeel tranquility and peace means you have faith and believe in the power and presence of some higher being or spirit. This lets you feeeeeeeeeeeeeel peaceful even during life’s chaos of troubles, sorrows and pains. You know that there is always hope and that things are going according to a higher plan. It is choosing to “let go and let God.”

Loving:

Spiritual health includes showing love and concern and generosity to others and reaching out to others. Loving relationships with others increase your spiritual well being.

My wish for you is to know that the higher power, whatever that is to you, loves you and created you as a beautiful gem, even with your flaws. Love yourself, love others and be gentle and kind and loving and know that there is a love for you that is always there and that comes from a higher power. Let this spiritual sense into your heart and you will create more peace and joy and live a juicy, fuller and healthier life.

Distance Learning and Coaching

Distance learning is sophisticated way to train coaches who are already professionals. The Internet allows us to close the distance and enhance the coach training experience. With a self-study, self-paced experience you can learn from the privacy of your home or work, at days and times that serve you best and learn as quickly or slowly as you desire.

Coaching students who do best in this career have a common desire to work from home, make about 1-2k a week as they transition to a full time career over time, or simply work part time as a hobby or to earn extra income for themselves or their families. They are typically in service oriented professions such as massage therapy, physical therapy, Chiropractic, speech therapy, nutrition, sports/fitness, healthcare, psychology, business, etc.

They want to learn coaching to enhance their careers or to form the foundation of their new part time or full time business.

I believe the best coaches live coaching!

News From My Doctor

Today I went to the Orthopod to see what the status was on my healing and I got a good news/bad news response... my foot is healing (not healed, but healing)... I do have RSD :( That is Reflexive Sympathetic Dystrophy which is something I will need to continue to remain on the neurological nerve blockers for. I am now seeing a neurologist to get me started in a pain therapy program which they are hoping will help relieve the pain in about 15-18 months.

I am still happy as my foot is healing and I do not need surgery and I can walk more, bike, start to work out a bit, and I can drive once I get used to the pain blockers neurological effects. So, that's the story as of today.

Thank you for the good thoughts and wishes.

Fear of Success

Posted 2/15/07

As I continue to train and work with coaches and as I coach my own clients, I see many people having difficulty handling fear of success. This fear of success comes from an old story or pattern that they are not good enough. This fear results in them losing their motivation to grow, to achieve and to succeed.

I help them establish new behavior patterns and new beliefs and feeeeeeeeeeling to overcome this old story.

To begin this process we look at their life and where they had fear of success.

If you want some free coaching advice, here it is:

Create an autobiography of your life and age by age write down when/where and how you had fear of success.

The first step in changing our stories is knowing what we are thinking.

The Pain of Working At a Job You Don't Like

Posted 2/13/07

So many people really desire not to commute to work... not to spend hours and hours each day away from their homes and their families... not to work for a paycheck... not to do work that they don't feeeeeeeeeeeeel rewarded for and actually dread going to work and are miserable at their jobs. They stay stuck working for someone or a company and making that company profitable while they are underpaid and under- appreciated. They struggle each day to get up and get motivated enough to go back to work and do their boring work. They feeeeeeeeeel stuck as they need the paycheck and health benefits and they are missing out on living their lives and being with their families, having hobbies, having time for themselves and their lives go by with no meaning and the hopes of someday retiring and finally enjoying their lives then.

This pains me.

What I believe people want is what I wanted and created for myself... a life that allows you to do work you enjoy, that allows you to work from home, work far less hours and make way more money and having you feeeeeeeeeeel rewarded and appreciated. You can have the time with your family, friends, hobbies and to live your life instead of letting it pass by while you work for a company that can easily replace you without a thought.

Stop being afraid to live the life you were meant to be.

You are creating your own pain and suffering by believing you are stuck in a JOB.

You can make the transition and earn $50k or more within 6 months.

I did it and taught thousands of others to do the same.

If you really want help, I'll show you the formula.

If not, stay stuck, be miserable and blame yourself:(

Does this sound familiar to you?

Posted 2/12/07:

You have been considering doing work that you enjoy and no longer commuting to a job where you are unpaid, undervalued and overworked.

You have some ideas of what you might want to do.

You fear you won't be able to pay the bills, so you keep on going to work every day and feeling down.

Late at night you dream about doing your own business and being more fully connected with people.

You know there is more to your life.

You know you are smart and you can do other things that are more valuable to others than the current work you do.

You feeeeeeeeeeeeeeeel trapped.

You fear investing money and loosing money.

So, you quiet your dream.

I want to acknowledge you for having a dream and now I want to encourage you to stick with your dream. Most people give up their dreams and don't create joy and ease in their lives.

I honor you for having the desire to build a new way of life and work.

I know it is scarey and yet I also know how wonderful it feeeeeeeeeeeeeels to do the work you love while serving others and getting paid what you deserve and having the freedom to live your life, too!

I want for you to live life on your own terms and understand you can do this.

If you are serious about having the life you want stop fighting for it and allow me to assist you in getting there.

You deserve to be a success on your own terms and not giving 40-60 hours a week to someone else who gets rich and has their dreams come true. To reach your dreams you have to be your own boss.

You can have your own business and what you need is someone who will guide you.

I am proud of the clients and students who have followed my methods and created success on their own terms.

They no longer wander to a job, but they have made massive changes in creating their own businesses where they are wildly rewarded.

If you don't know where to start let me hold your hand and make it happen with you.

I want for YOU to create the life and work of your dreams like I have.

More About Israel

Posted 2/9/07

As I was reflecting today I realized that my trip to Israel was eye opening. The ancient sites we saw, the many religions all coming to sites to view and tour and the feeeeeeeeeeeeeeling I got from the land and the people has made a huge impact on me. I am reading emails from people at my events and feeeeeeeeeeeling loved and appreciated and connected. I have been journaling about the feeeeeeeeeeeeling I had in the Dead Sea of floating with ease and then standing up with ease and how this has helped my healing of my Achilles... seeing myself stand with such ease.

I had an experience in Israel that added deeply to my life and am choosing to hold that experience and use it in how I respond to the world around me. I am taking my new emotional point of view and blending it into my work and my life.

I have such gratitude for this experience and look foward to speaking in other places around the globe!

My Trip to Israel

Posted 2/8/07:

I can't say enough about my trip to Israel! The coaching conference was amazing and they did an awesome job of packing the house with wonderful, excited, and open-minded people. I found all the people loving and giving and generous and felt appreciated and connected.

During my workshops I got to know many people on an individual basis and was in awe of their intelligence and love. I have never been anywhere in the world (and I travel a lot!) where the people are so engaged and caring.

We spent time touring after the conference and got to tour with the other speakers from around the world. I found them interesting, enlightening and such fun to travel and tour with.

The State of Israel is beautiful! Mountains, sea, sand, desert and so much ancient history and interest of every religion. I want to go back soon as there was so much to see and do and not enough time to fit it all in!
I had the honor and privledge of meeting the Acting President and Speaker of the Knesset, Dalia Itzik. We met her while having dinner in a local restaurant and she invited us to come for a personal tour of the Knesset! We had a private tour and got to spend a great deal of time asking questions and got to meet with her (she even invited us to lunch) and I got to sit in her chair at the Knesset!

What a warm place to go. I highly recommend everyone spend time seeing the history and connecting with various religions and meeting EXTRAordinary people!

I will be going back as soon as I am invited to speak again and I hope this is soon!

Personal Coaching with Terri

Hi! It's Rachel in Terri Levine's office, and I've got some really exciting news to share.

Have you been wanting to personally coach with Terri, but you've been holding off because you just can't afford her rates? Then you're gonna' want to jump on this offer TODAY...

A few months ago, Terri launched her exclusive Dream Racers program in which she personally coached 20 individuals to accelerated success. Unfortunately, demand for this closed-door program was much larger than Terri's time allowed, and hundreds of highly qualified individuals had to be turned away. In fact, demand was so great, Terri decided to develop the entire 6-month program into a home study course, and the course is finally ready.

I've taken a look at the program, and I can tell you, it is really powerful. I can't believe she did this, but in the course, Terri actually reveals her secret coaching tools that you can use to achieve ANY goal in ANY area of you life. The program is incredibly motivating, and after using it, your self-confidence is going to soar through the roof.

No more struggling to reach those goals that always seem just beyond your grasp. Terri will teach you her life-changing techniques for increasing your goal achieving ability. In fact, according to one of the original Dream Racers, "The program acts like an energy drink that stimulates you to take action."

And speaking of taking action, I suggest you take action soon. You see, Terri is currently in Israel at a speaking engagement that she is really excited about (I'm sure she'll tell you more about it when she gets back). And while she's gone, I've decided to offer a discount on the Dream Racers Home Study Program. It's already priced WAY BELOW its value, but if you act before February 8 (when Terri gets back) you'll save even more!

But you need to grab your copy now, because when Terri gets back on February 8, I need to have everything back to business as usual. So do yourself a favor, don't set this aside and say to yourself "I'll do it February 7." Get over to the web site NOW, while it's still fresh on your mind, and take advantage of my very own, first ever discount.

Don't you owe it to yourself to finally achieve those goals that you KNOW you deserve?

Thanks for your time, and here's to your success,
