THOM BURLINGTON BLOG

I want to repeat here part of the note I sent to you through our Turbo Community communication lines earlier. This way, anyone who wanders by can sense the admiration that so many of your students feel.

I hope you, the reader, will take a few moments to read John’s article, here:  http://www.johndelavera.com/blog

Here I am very early on this special, bright shiny new day, listening for the peck, peck, peck, and the cracking of shells, and the squawking and screeching and cries of surprise as you emerge into the light, friendship and wonder that is always waiting for you at the awakening of a new day, but especially this one.

It is really great that you have such a large, kind and stimulating flock of birds fluttering all around you. Reminds me of some fabulous tropical island with so many exotic species colours sounds, and even smells no doubt.

I would like others to know that I feel very fortunate to have met you in person at the Turboseminar, not only because it was a lot of fun. We humans have some kind of special wiring that allows us to connect with each other regardless of physical distance, but I think it helps to create the initial resonance with a personal meeting physically. Thank you so much for taking the initiative and risk of starting your new path partly with that seminar. I am excited as we go forward.

Your writing above and the events of the past few weeks remind me also of a couple of important things. We surely need to pause and contemplate and weigh the balance of our choices and actions, and it is equally important to be courageous and persistent in our self evaluation. The lesson is both that we can change for the better from this moment forward, and we can learn from our mistakes without becoming too discouraged (for more than a moment to recognize it.)  And, well, that’s what friends are for, isn’t it. (I must spend more time in the Turbo Forum.)

Turbo Online Estate Up Fror Grabs - April Only - Maybe Fr*ee

John Delavera’s new eBook, “Metamorphosis Technique”, is an elegant, natural and perfect resolution of my, and perhaps others’, transformative experiences of the Turboseminar #1.  John’s language and writing style is very clear and inspirational – he often adds his own twist which shakes our mind, like “You are PARTNERING with the Universe”.

You can transform your life the same way a caterpillar is transformed to a butterfly. This book is to be read often for stoking your inspiration:

Simpleology 101 is a perfect match with Metamorphosis — it’s a gift from Mark Joyner, and will help you create a very powerful daily practice of working consistently with the Universe:

In Turboseminar #1, as I outlined last week, we were challenged by John and Mark Joyner to face up to our habits, especially the ones which no longer serve us, and to notice, with the right mindset, we can just let them go, quite easily, if not painlessly – how? trust the Universe (and a little help from our friends).

We read “The Magic Story” – at least I hope we all did ( I found it a little difficult to get a nice version of it, so I have posted an initial version here:

http://www.TheMagicStory.info

and this week I will soon post an MP3 I made).

The Magic Story comes to fulfillment with 11 ‘Admonitions”, all of which are embodied even more elegantly in John’s Metamophosis; check  Admonitions 9 and 10:

9.         ‘Your plus-entity is beside you now; cleanse your brain, and strengthen your will. It will take possession. It waits upon you.’

10.       ‘Start tonight; start now upon this new journey.’

We watched Al Pacino’s “Any Given Sunday” video:

It is a wake-up Call to the Heart! -  even more the older you are.

John told us more of his own story to encourage us that anything is possible – as you can see from my website I have great respect for the “Eagles”.

Personally, in the bright light of our group, I realized how I still retained a very old habit – no mistakes, know it all – that has been seriously holding me back – and I saw I can just let it go – I need to keep reminding myself for a short time – so thank you for Metamorphosis.

I also realized, because of all the fine people and presenters, that I do not have to do and know everything myself, before I offer a product or service – there are many ways and resources and I can always improve it. My potential customers will benefit more from something than nothing.

The most important thing, I would emphasize is to cultivate the 4 Steps John mentions – you really need to read John’s language and the context, and read the “Metamorphosis Technique”  once a day until it really sticks, especially the core from page 39 on.

To paraphrase John, “We are ready; no preparation is needed; visualize our goal; go for it; the Universe will support us in ways we can never imagine.

NOW is the time.”

Thanks John and Mark

Hello world!  An Auspicious Start to this Blog  with Turbo Seminar #1 !

The Centerpiece of Turbo Seminar #1, February 26-28 2010 – a huge amount of small group and personal time with the great “Eagles” (in John’s metaphor) of internet marketing:

• intimate and lengthy discussions with Mark Joyner and John Delavera, and as a result, personal breakthroughs for me, and apparently other people too
• getting to know online friends face to face – so much better than webinars and email
• learning from experienced marketers and teachers like Simon Leung (Google Insider) and Andy Huang, Lee Collins (Hybrid Marketing), Morgan Westerman (Interview with God; Affiliate strategies, Glen Dietzel (Intellectual Property and publishing), Warren Whitlock (Being an Expert), Susan Preston (Being Yourself – Social Media), and Mike Wesely (Article Cartel traffic system);
• Jeremy Gislayson dropped in for a day; Albert Hallado gave a very moving speech.
• We missed not meeting Joe Sugarman (threatened by Tsunami) and Ken McArthur (snowed in), but next year?

The discussions with Mark highlighted Inspiration, Choice and Habits, in other words:

1. who am I
2. where am I going, and
3. how do I travel in that direction most effectively
4. and the foundation of it all, where is my joy?

Some of the Inspirational pieces that Mark and John brought to our attention below:

Mark Joyner

As I said, Mark does his best to shake us loose from some of the thoughts and behaviors that might not serve too well. To interrupt some patterns he pointed us to:

The Magic Story

After scratching around online a bit for it, I felt this old story, “ The Magic Story ”,  deserves better expression that it seems to currently get online, so I will offer it in several ways at    http://themagicstory.info/

But really, the main purpose of reading a story like this is to reconnect to “ My Magic Story ”, our own magic story that whispers to us now and then, and is waiting to be told out loud.

I hope we can have fun with this.

Al Pacino’s Any Given Sunday

Watch it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_iKg7nutNY

What can I say but     …            Wake Up and Move your Butt!

The one thing Mark is really insistent about is for us to do “Simpleology 101”.

John Delavera

I have been with John’s Turbomembership for more than 2 years, and it has surely changed my life, and the weekend was certainly a highlight. To get some idea why, check out the following right now, and I will explain more in other posts:

John Delavera: “I have a vision”

John Delavera: “Be a Shakespeare of your Kind”

As well as watching the videos, be sure to download the pdf documents to read about John and his introduction to the story.

Then, for anyone interested in internet marketing, be sure to go ahead and read “The Big Yellow Book”; it can change your life.

Eagles

John talked about joining the Internet Marketing Eagles this weekend, so let me say this about that, and I will take it further later:

From the book, “Medicine Cards” (Jamie Sams and David Carson), we learn:

“ Eagle medicine is the power of the Great Spirit, the connection to the Divine. It is the ability to live in the realm of spirit, and yet remain connected and balanced within the realm of Earth.

…

Eagle represents a state of grace achieved through hard work, understanding, and a completion of the tests of initiation which results in the taking of one’s personal power.

…

Eagle Medicine is the gift we give ourselves to remind us of the freedom of the skies. Eagle asks you to give yourself permission to legalize freedom and to follow the joy of your heart desires.”

___________________________

Main Point

Eagle reminds you to take heart, gather your courage, soar above your usual habits, and

JUST GO FOR IT!
