The Energetics of Voting

by

What is the connection between voting and energy?

And to what extent does our single vote impact our world?

Things are heating up as we approach this highly polarizing U.S. election. Many are and will be voting for their candidate of choice, while a significant portion of the public doesn’t vote at all. Unfortunately, in this political system that is often less than fair and transparent, we may feel like our voice and our vote doesn’t matter.

However, it is important that we keep in mind that the universe is always receiving our energetic “vote” and giving us back the reality we are choosing with our thoughts, beliefs, and actions.

While I highly encourage everyone to vote in elections, the physical act of going to the ballot box and checking the box next to a certain person’s name may actually be the least powerful method of voting at our disposal. 

Voting is one way that we can express our convictions and values, but there are also many other ways.  You could even say that every moment of every day we are “voting” as to who we are and what world we choose to live in by where we put our energy.

However you vote, be sure to do with full consciousness of what exactly you are putting your energy and consent behind.

I am honored and proud to have the right to vote, and this week I exercised that right.  And yes I am going to trust our US Post office to deliver my choice!

Even more, I trust in a higher power to likewise always deliver my vote exactly where it needs to go.

Announcing The E-Zen Masterclass & Webinar Series

by

To meet the current challenge, I am for the first time offering my complete system of business success and Spiritual Intelligence in my E-Zen Masterclass.

These times are unlike any ever before in the history of humanity. The events of 2020 and the Coronavirus only rapidly accelerated an already decades-long process of change in the business sphere, in our economies, and in every facet of our lives. 

Create Your Destiny

This has made it all the more a necessity that you be, as Nassim Taleb calls it, “antifragile”. In other words, that you be captain of your own ship and not rely on anything or anyone external to you such as a company to deposit a paycheck in your account a few times a month.  The fact is, that for many of us, this type of security is no longer available.

In my own life, it was only when I was fired from my prolific CEO position that I was, in a way, forced to evolve and set off on my own by starting my own real-estate business. That business was very successful, despite the fact that in 2008 when it was started the U.S. was in the midst of a serious recession and a real-estate crunch. 

While the change and uncertainty of our times may lead to fear, it is precisely in these times that we receive the shocks and promptings that we must create our own destiny rather than waiting for something to happen to us.  

I am sure that we will look back at the years of 2020 and 2021 and see them as the turning point where some individuals went down with the sinking ship of their old beliefs about the world and their soon-to-be-obsolete job, while others saw the changing winds and shifted to a totally new consciousness as it relates to their business and professional work as well as their personal life and state of consciousness.

A Proven System For Business and Life Success

I have previously offered face-to-face coaching and consulting sessions to help entrepreneurs and executives take their business to the next level – but with the changing times due to COVID-19, I am now pivoting to hosting webinars and creating an online course to share my total life and business system with others.

This is the perfect time for you to pivot to a totally new strategy in your life and business. To turn that idea you’ve been thinking about into a tangible side-hustle, to radically re-think how your organization operates, or even to set off in a totally new direction altogether as an entrepreneur bringing your unique gift to the world.  And to do this while simultaneously transforming your mental, emotional, and spiritual approach to your life’s journey. 

The E-Zen Masterclass

Therefore, I am very excited to announce the unveiling of my E-Zen Masterclass and introductory webinar series. 

Starting Thursday, October 15th I will be holding a series of totally free webinar presentations to provide you with actionable tips and proven strategies gathered from my own experiences overcoming adversity while leading billion-dollar companies and creating my own companies. 

This presentation is packed with value including a brief story of my journey from barely finishing high-school to leading a Warren Buffett company. I’ll give you an introduction to my Lead To Gold Formula and the 3 P’s of Productivity, Profits, and Purpose that can revolutionize your level of success. It will also contain new insights from my brand new book The IGI Principles and the 7 essential pillars of both professional and personal flourishing.  There will also be time for questions and answers where I can personally address your biggest sticking points and challenges. 

Learn the Keys to Both Business and Spirituality & How they are Both Integral
to your Fulfillment and Success

Keys to Business Success

You will take an in-depth dive into my Lead To Gold Formula designed to help you transition, transform, and evolve to your highest good in business and in life.
