MKS-18: Building Your Field of Dreams with the Business of 21st Century

Do you want your dreams to come true? Are you sick of waiting around for success? DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT! Building Your Field of Dreams is a Deeper Belief in You. It is as though God is saying, ‘I have got more for you, Beloved. Do not settle. Do not live a little life. Live the life I put you here to live. There is so much more for you to experience. Do not settle for an inch less. Be the greatest you I intended you to be.”

The deep, inner restlessness you may be experiencing is called Divine Discontent. This deep, inner restlessness is a persistent, loving nudge that guides you to awaken to your own power and true desires.

To put it into words it is the dream your subconscious mind has already built.

Grow. Grow. Grow. Become. Become. Become. Be all You can be. There is something wonderful and majestic in you. Something beyond your wildest dreams if you will Build Your Field of Dreams.

You are much, much more than you know. God has endowed you with power, beauty, wonder, and unlimited potential for expression of anything you want. There is something in you that is yearning for greater expression of you.

Each of us is much greater than our current expression of ourselves.

Hear Your Call to your Hero’s Journey!

Accept the treasure of the True Self that you already possess. There is a voice ‘in you’ calling you to be the person you were born to be, to fulfill the original selfhood given you at birth by God.

  • What is your Definite Major Purpose? The thread of purposefulness that runs through your life?
  • What actions do you do or return to again and again?
  • How are you allowing our life to ‘speak’ these days?

God calls everyone.

A vocation is about who you are and who you are called to become.

A vocation is the recognition that God has a claim on your life and calls you to participate in the continuing transformation of the world.

This calling is made possible by intellectual and personal gifts shaped by your historical actions and the crossing of self and society.

Growing the Dream

‘There is no planet, sun or star that could hold you if you knew who you are.’Ralph Waldo Emerson.

If you are still breathing, God still has plans for you.

‘The people who get in on this world are those who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and, if they cannot find them, make them.’ George Bernard Shaw

  • Step outside you safe, little world and break through your self-imposed barriers. God is not the one limiting you.
  • Open your mind and triumphantly roar, celebrating the possibilities that exist within you.

It is always too early to abandon hope.

Deep within you, you life, your divine pattern is an urging for you to express yourself. Practice listening. Soul’s sensing will lead you to your dream.

Spend time studying the Master Key System by Charles Haanel to learn how to practice your listening power through the MKS Exercises.

Answer, What is distracting you from your dream?

If your dream or Defninite Major Purpose was not impossible, what is the first thing you would do? And the next thing? And so on… If you did not believe youe dream was impossible, what would you do?

What will your dream or Definite Major Purpose look like when it comes to fruition?

You have been given the capacity to create whatever life you choose.

God’s gift of inspiration may reveal itself only one idea at a time. God reveals the next step as you advance. Constantly moving one step closer to your greater self.

You current dream or Definite Major Purpose will lead you to even greater dreams, if you are willing to take each step as it appears.

Support that you cannot create will come to you through your willingness to be guided by God, to go to the edge of the light you can see and take another step.

It can feel uncomfortable to stretch and grow. Acknowledge fear. Accept her as my companion, not my master.

The knowing Voice of God will persistently nudge you in the direction of your highest good, by way of the path that often confounds your logical mind.

No one can make it for you to accomplish your Definite Major Purpose or Dream, because it is through the struggle that you develop the strength to acccomplish your dream. The greatest impact in your life comes not from achieving you dream, but from taking the Hero’s Journey and awakening to the person you become as you step into it and complete it. The field is ready. The seed is good. Your life is willing. Plant the seed. Your harvest is assured. Sources: Building Your Field of Dreams. By Mary Manin Morrissey.

Mary Morrissey’s own dreams were nearly shattered at age 16, when pregnancy forced her into a reluctant marriage that nevertheless became the crucible for remarkable lessons in faith. As she was tested by the near-death of one of her children, by life-threatening kidney disease, and by years of struggling to make ends meet, she clung to her determination to be a minister.

Mary Morrissey International Speaker, Best-Selling Author, CEO, Consultant, Visionary, Empowerment Specialist Speaker, best-selling author, consultant for over four decades, and the founder and owner of Brave Thinking Institute, Mary Morrissey’s transformational talks and seminars have made her one of the elite teachers in personal development. With powerful examples from many dream-builders she has known, she shows how anyone can identify their deepest desires, build a partnership with God, confront obstacles and failure, and overcome the mental blocks that keep us from our potential. It is a great message, compellingly delivered by a great teacher.

She is widely considered the world’s foremost expert on “dream-building,” which is the art and science of transforming your dreams into reality.

She has invested the last 40 years into studying transformational principles, and is the author of two bestselling books, No Less Than Greatness and Building Your Field of Dreams, which became a PBS special.

She has addressed the United Nations three times and was invited to co-convene three different week-long meetings with His Holiness the Dalai Lama. She also met with President Nelson Mandela in Cape Town, South Africa to address some of the most significant issues that our world faces.

Through her books, live events and programs, she has empowered millions of people worldwide to achieve new heights of spiritual aliveness, prosperity, and authentic success.

She has been one of my most important mentors and teachers. She has a laser beam ability to recognize and articulate possibility in someone’s life, then take their hand and show them how to make it real.

MKS-17: Build the Business of the 21st Century With a Proven Training Program

Winning Formula:

DMP + PMA + WPOA + MMA = BUSINESS SUCCESS

Day 1 – Lesson

STEP 1: Definiteness of Purpose-the Key to The Vault

There exists a formula for success in any venture.  Most people in networking want to know what to say and how to find more people.  This was the same mistake we made while failing 5 times in the 80’s.  Then, in 1994, I reached for The Success System That Never Fails  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZUbfskQ-GAY  and Think and Grow Rich

The same success formula was in both books.  All achievement is predetermined by a single factor.  Until that factor is altered, knowing what to say and having people to talk to will make zero difference.   It all begins with desire and authentic purpose.  In this 4-hour, interactive workshop you’ll uncover your purpose and learn what that single factor is that determines success or failure.  

Once this is done, your dreams will manifest.  This works 100% of the time for people who use the Success System That Never Fails. See: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fQ_UZqVc70&t=1s

Part 1: Recording of Seminar: https://vimeo.com/478328204

Part 2: Recording of Seminar: https://vimeo.com/478339003

Day 2 – Lesson-STEP 2: Positive Mental Attitude Step 3: Written Plan of Action

The difference between success and failure is small… tiny, in fact.  But that tiny difference makes a huge difference in a person’s life.  We’re speaking of attitude.  It turns out that all human beings, in order to survive, developed a genetic negativity bias. 

What we’ll do in this workshop is move away from quotes about having a good attitude and engage you in an exercise ensuring long-term positive mental attitude.   Hardest thing you’ll ever do, best thing you’ll ever do. 

We also know from the Success System That Never Fails that a vision without a plan is a fairy tale.  Everybody knows the difference between knowing what to do and doing it is whether or not we schedule it.  We’ll build a power week schedule during this lesson that you’ll customize for your lifestyle and your teammates will be thrilled to copy.

Rejection-Free Recruiting; 90%+ Say Yes (word-for-word examples)

Day 3 – LIVE Lesson- Thurs, Nov. 12th

Step 4: Recruiting
Step 5: Retail
Step 6: Follow-Up & Follow Through

This may offend some people, but I’m willing to take that risk.  The methodologies being taught by gurus are not only ineffective, they are manipulative, unethical and untruthful. 

Nobody that has ethics wants to contact people, pretend to be their friend or that you have similar interests when what you really are doing is hoping to pitch your stuff.  I didn’t like it, I’m sure you don’t like it and we know prospects don’t like it.  Once you discover how all decisions are made in the subconscious mind, being transparent and proud will make you a fortune. 

More than 90% will say “yes” to looking with an open mind in less than 30 seconds.  That means you don’t need very many people to talk to.  The only people who believe they need a lot of leads are the people selling them, and the people who don’t know what to say to get a yes while being honest and transparent.  Rejection-free rocks!

Now the Big Money; Driving Volume and Teams

Day 4 -Lesson SUCCESS: Now the Big Money; Driving Volume and Teams
Step 5: Retail
Step 6: Follow-Up & Follow Through
Step 7: Duplication

If you’re like most people, and that was the case with me, parts 5 and 6 of The Simple 6 will awaken your common sense and make you a lot of money.   I thought, while I was failing, that the money I wanted to earn was in sponsoring.  It isn’t. 

Spoiler alert!  We get paid on volume, not the number of distributors we have.  You can’t do the minimum and make the maximum.  What does that mean?  Would you rather have your teammates doing the minimum autoship monthly or $1,000 each month?  No brainer. 

You’ll learn a skill we used to help each rep get 4-8 customers a month, 50+ for the year.  That’s volume, everybody makes more money.  

 Follow-up and follow-through is where the huge money is in network marketing.  In 1995 we discovered that duplication cannot be taught, it must be caught. 

Not only did this discovery lead to greater growth, it reduced our time commitment weekly to under 12 hours.  The 3-Deep Pattern creates more money in less time and fosters astonishing partnerships and relationships.

MKS-15: Business of the 21st Century Purpose and Profit

For many around the world this was a year full of uncertainty, challenges, and chaos.

And where you once found stability and security, you might feel shaken to the core. Together, we can create a new reality for all your future years ahead.

Would you like your work or careeer to provide psychic AND material wealth? You CAN do. You came here to do. To earn more money than you ever have.

BUSINESS OF THE 21st CENTURY PURPOSE AND PROFIT FOR YOUR CAREER OR SMALL BUSINESS

The purpose of making money.

Purpose, by its nature, transcends making money: It is about people coming together to do something they believe in and allowing profit to follow as a consequence, rather than as an end in itself. But there is a paradox here.

The Purpose and Profit training has been incredible. Here’s what we’ve covered:

  • Purpose and Vision
  • Paradigms and Goals
  • Attitude and Self Image
  • Decision

You’ll also find the daily assignments below.

[1]: Purpose and Vision:

Purpose is the foundation of mission and vision, but impact is what matters. A vision statement is a statement of what the future looks like if the organization is successful. It is a statement of where you as a company are headed. A vision statement describes what the world will look like if you achieve the mission that serves your purpose.

Vision is the picture. Mission is the road map to get there. Purpose is the feeling that everyone, from the CEO to the janitor, has when you accomplish what you set out to do.

What is your purpose, mission, and vision in your life or business?

Vision – a vision is a statement of what you would like to become. Mission is a statement of how we will accomplish our vision. Purpose is a statement of why we exist/reason for being.

The difference between vision and purpose

As nouns the difference between purpose and vision is that purpose is an object to be reached; a target; an aim; a goal while vision is (label) the sense or ability of sight.  Purpose is to have set as one’s purpose; resolve to accomplish; intend; plan while vision is to imagine something as if it were to be true.

Mission, vision, purpose, and values

Mission, Vision, and Values: Mission and vision both relate to an organization’s purpose and are typically communicated in some written form. Mission and vision are statements from the organization that answer questions about who we are, what do we value, and where we are going.

What is the purpose of vision and mission statement?

Mission and vision statements are concise, inspiring statements that clearly communicate the direction and values of an organization. These statements can powerfully explain your intentions, and they can motivate your team or organization to realize an inspiring vision of the future.  (1) Finding Your Purpose Bob Proctor – YouTube

Assignment 1:  Write a script 6 months from now in the presence tense the way you really want to be living earning the profits you really want to earn from your business. Once you have written it, take a picture of it and send us a copy.

[2]: Paradigms and Goals

What is a paradigm? [pronounced para-dime] A paradigm is a model, a perception or understanding. It is only by seeing things based on the correct principles that we achieve success and happiness. In order to understand paradigms, Covey encourages us to think of them as maps. They are not the solution, merely a representation of how to get somewhere.

Paradigms are the ONLY roadblocks between you and your goals, so you need a goal that is bigger, more exciting, than your paradigms. How do you come up with a goal like that?

Examples include fairness, integrity, honesty, dignity, service, excellence, potential, growth, patience, nurturance, and encouragement. These are guidelines for achievement. Where your paradigms are the directions on your map, these principles are your landmarks that confirm that you are on the right track and that you have the correct map.

Knowing what you want to achieve is the first and most important step in setting your goals. Have a vision for your life. Visualize where you want to be at various stages of your life and the relevant goals that you would have liked to achieve. Remember, it is important to set goals that are important to you personally and not others.

(1) Paradigm Shift Bob Proctor – Reaching Your Infinite Potential – Ep. 5 – YouTube

Assignment 2: [A]: Write out the paradigms that are not serving you and burn them (safely). Then take a picture of your bowl burning ceremony. [B]:  Write out your goal 50 times in the presence tense starting with “I am so happy and grateful now that…  Then take a picture of it.

[3]: Self-Image and Attitude

Self-image is what you think of yourself. Most of the people have difficulty in accepting the way they are. You ask people and a majority will say that they were rather someone else than what they actually are. Self-image is a number of self impressions that you have created over time.

Attitude reflects self-image. The reason that one person is positive while another person is negative is due to the fact that attitudes or outlooks on life reflect our self-image. The discovery of our self-image has been called one of the most important discoveries of this century.

Our self-image is continually assessing this type of information and the attitudes that we hold towards ourselves. Another example might be related to our physical appearance. Imagine that you put on a few pounds over winter.

Self-image is a portion of what makes up our much broader self-concept. Self-image is strictly how we view ourselves, not how we think or feel about ourselves. Again, as was the case with self-concept, self-identity is a broader and more comprehensive term than self-image.

A positive self-image has the ability and potential to boost our physical, mental, social, emotional, and spiritual well-being. On the other hand, a negative self-image can decrease our well-being in each of these areas as well as our overall life satisfaction and functioning. A lot of people tend to get self-image confused with self-concept.

We define self-image as the individual’s willingness to cooperate for the sake of the public good, we define environmental attitude as the individual’s concern regarding waste prevention and disposal, and the environmental behavior as the individual’s recycling behavior.

Having a negative self-image can certainly influence self-esteem, and having low self-esteem is likely to be accompanied by a negative self-image, but they are at least somewhat independent “self” aspects. How Identity is Related Identity is also a closely related concept but is also a larger and more comprehensive one than self-image.

Assignment 3: Listen to the Magic Word-Attitude Audio 3 times and then post your biggest takeaways.  The Magic Word by Earl Nightingale

Write a description of the person you intend to become.   How you and others see you.  Remember: I am not who I think I am. I am not who I think I am.  But I am who I think you think I am.

[4]: Decision

The great importance of having good decision-making skills in life, lays out the common problems people face, and gives us the keys to being truly successful at it.

The business decision-making process is a step-by-step process allowing professionals to solve problems by weighing evidence, examining alternatives, and choosing a path from there. This defined process also provides an opportunity, at the end, to review whether the decision was the right one. (1) Universal Laws of Life – Full Stream – YouTube

Decision-making process is a reasoning process based on assumptions of values, preferences, and beliefs of the decision-maker. Every decision-making process produces a final choice, which may or may not prompt action.

Decision-making process

  1. Identify the decision. You realize that you need to decide. Try to clearly define the nature of the decision you must make. This first step is very important.
  2. Gather relevant information. Collect some pertinent information before you make your decision: what information is needed, the best sources of information, and how to get it.
  3. Identify the alternatives. As you collect information, you will probably identify several possible paths of action, or alternatives. You can also use your imagination and additional information to construct new alternatives.
  4. Weigh the evidence. Draw on your information and emotions to imagine what it would be like

Decision-making Steps

  1. Define the problem:
  2. Analyzing the problem:
  3. Developing alternative solutions:
  4. Selecting the best type of alternative:
  5. Implementation of the decision:
  6. Follow up:
  7. Monitoring and feedback:

Assignment 4: 1. Read the decision 3 times and post your takeaway. 2. Act on one definite decision you have been procrastinating on that will help you reach your goal.

[5]: Decision

There’s a habit I want to encourage you to adopt – a habit that W. Clement Stone formed of saying – “That’s Good!”

Because, there is ALWAYS something good. Whenever we are inundated with negativity, it is essential that we go back to the basics.  

I look at the basics as to what Ray Stanford said to me.  He said, ‘Bob, you are the only problem you’ll ever have and baby, you’re the only solution.’

It took me a long time to understand what Ray meant, but he’s right.  It is always our perception that’s the problem; it is easy to blame everything outside ourselves, the government, the virus, your partner, or spouse.  

Understand there is good in everything and it is our responsibility to keep our attitudes right.

PURPOSE AND PROFIT IN BUSINESS

You may think that business is all about profit, businesspeople are unethical and business in general is a black art of guile and greed. Over the years I have found this to be mostly untrue.

The story that businesspeople are bad and what they do is morally questionable is false. For every Enron, there are 10,000 good companies. And most companies, like most people, are trying to do the right thing.

Business can solve the world’s problems. And more people are coming to believe that. Having observed business for more than three decades, I can tell things are changing. Thousands of new businesses are working to make the world a better place and, most importantly, add real value to our daily lives.

We need to recast the very way we think about business, especially in the aftermath of the global financial crisis, in which the old model of business — profit maximization — contributed to the meltdown.

Stakeholder Theory argues that stakeholders come first — whether they are suppliers, investors, employees, customers, or the community.

The old way of thinking about business presupposes the point of business is to make profits. This is akin to believing that breathing is the purpose of life.

Yes, you have to breathe to live, just as businesses must make profits. But the purpose of business is usually determined by a passionate entrepreneur chasing a dream to change the world.

John Mackey, co-CEO of Whole Foods Market, is an example of the new order of those great business leaders who practice conscious capitalism. Mackey says that entrepreneurs — though they want to make money — start businesses out of passion.

Think about it this way, he said: Physicians make money, but their mission is to heal; teachers make money, but their desire is to educate; and architects make money, but they yearn to build.

The question then is: Why the myth that businesspeople only want to make money?

The Motley Fool’s main mission, says its CEO Tom Gardner, is to help people become better investors. Kip Tindell, CEO of The Container Store, explains that taking good care of its 6,000 employees leads those employees to take very good care of customers and other stakeholders. The result is profit.

PUTTING PURPOSE BACK INTO CAPITALISM

Capitalism has always had its share of critics, who claim it leaves scandal, pollution, and poverty in its wake. Capitalism may not be perfect, but it is the greatest system of social cooperation created thus far. Capitalism works because entrepreneurs and managers figure out how customers, employees, suppliers, communities, and people with the money all can cooperate to mutual benefit. Competition is important, but it is a second-order property that gives people more choice in a free society.

Business is a deeply human institution, but its purpose is not to make as much money as possible. The purpose is something else. We need to put purpose back into capitalism because business is primarily about purpose and creating value for stakeholders — money and profits follow.

Business and ethics go hand in hand. Sometimes we act for selfish reasons and sometimes for other-regarding interests. Incentives are important, but so are values. Most people tell the truth and keep their promises and act responsibly most of the time. And we need to encourage that behavior. When these expectations are not met, it is not just bad ethics, it is also bad business.

Critique by creating something better. If you think that too many executives just concentrate on profits and money, then start a business that focuses on a purpose more than profits and relies on the passion of its employees.

Purpose and Profit Framework Today, it is finally safe to say that collective business wisdom accords purpose and profit virtually the same weight of importance in planning and leading a sustainable new enterprise. It is particularly true for startups, but it is also progressively true for established major corporations.

Every new venture is particular to itself and there is no one size-fits-all way to define its own purpose and profit goals. Neither is there only one singular way to conduct a process to consider what they both will be.

At worst, the founder will be the sole arbiter who makes the determination. Even solopreneurs would be well advised to seek the inputs of people around him or her—people whose opinions, experience, and skills are valued.

The Purpose and Profit Framework set out below is generic, but it attempts to define a way to go about considering both the two vital subjects together.

Profit with purpose is set to become the new norm.

Up to this point, social enterprise and impact investment have been driving this concept, which has somehow remained confined to a niche. Not anymore. Now, it is all set to change: the CEOs of the future will want their companies to be recognized as forces for good.

The most successful companies do not target profit directly but are driven by purpose – the desire to serve a societal need and contribute to human betterment.

Purpose, according to Ratan Tata, the recently retired CEO of the Tata Group, is “a spiritual and moral call to action; it is what a person or company stands for.” When such a purpose exists, it provides employees with a clear sense of direction, helps them prioritize and inspires them to go the extra mile — which, the argument goes, should ultimately be good for profit. Purpose, by its nature, transcends making money:
