Confession of a Book Addict

I admit it. I'm a book addict. I've a study covered from floor to ceiling with shelves packed with books. And there's piles of books on the floor.

Here's what I bought. It's a weird mix of self-help and marketing books.

I've Moved to Celebration, Florida - In My Mind, At Least

Back in '99, I visited the town of Celebration, Florida. It was love at first site.

You've probably heard of it -- it's the town that Disney built.

Well, for the last eight years, I've lived in Celebration -- in my mind, at least.
I've drunk coffee by the lake. I've met chatted with friends on my front porch. I've played with my daughter in the fountains. I've walked hand in hand with my wife down moonlit streets.

In reality, I've got a Celebration t-shirt, a Celebration baseball cap, a Celebration keyring, a Celebration fridge magnet, a Celebration mug. I've got pictures of Celebration on a cork board in my kitchen.
Each one is a symbol. Each one is a message to the universe that I live in Celebration.
And one day, I'll walk up the steps and unlock the front door of a wonderful home in Celebration -- for real.
What's your dream? And what can you get that will symbolise it?
I'll see you on the back roads...

Avis and the Law of Attraction

I'm back in Florida on another family vacation. And the law of attraction has followed me across the Atlantic.

I'd booked a car with Avis and asked if I could get a Jeep. The guy on the other end of the phone said he couldn't guarantee it but he'd do his best. I simply stated an intention for a Jeep or something better.

When I turned up to pick up the car I was told I was getting a Ford Explorer. Half-an-hour later the Explorer still hadn't turned up. The guy behind the desk apologised and upgraded the car to a Dodge Durango.

I hadn't a clue what this was but when it turned up I was stunned. It's huge. Althought I hadn't got a Jeep as I'd intended I'd definately attracted 'something better.'

I'll see you on the back roads...

Does reading Joe Vitale cause DVT?

Yesterday I spent nine hours with my backside glued to an airplane seat.

Why?

Because I picked up Joe Vitale's latest bestseller Buying Trances. And I couldn't put it down.

I barely moved. I barely ate. For nine straight hours.

Never mind a buying trance - I was in a reading trance.

We all sell something - even if it's selling your kids on tidying their rooms - so you'll want to get your hands on Buying Trances.Go to Amazon and get it now!
