Making a Living' is not an Endgame Played for Money
It's not about the money.
It's about the Seed Dreams.
The Seed Dream of Mother Earth
for each of us is Love.

The Purpose of Life
is not to end with a lot
of money. This is shocking but true.
The Purpose of LIfe is
about Seed Dreams
that get planted.
By all Means, Plant Your Dream!
Your Dream Job is your Soul
inspired Purpose.
My Ol' Friend Mark Victor Hansen
is pretty Honest about his Game.
I have an old audio cassette of his.
He is speaking before a group of Sales People
at a Sales Conference many years back.
He addressed his Love for making Sales.
The very act of Selling excites him,
and yet I believe he is inspired by
a Greater Purpose.
Along the MEGA Millionaires
I consider Mark One of the Best.
He inspires me often, so much so that
at one of his events a few years ago I near got
kicked out of the room of that seminar multiple times.
I just could hardly sit in my chair.
He gets me that excited!!!
He is truly a Master of Motivation!
It was at the Biltmore Hotel, among the
Motif of Angels, where I first heard him and Jack Canfield
talk up the Chicken Soup for the Soul book.
That evening there was just One, the First One.
I was exhausted going in the room.
Mark spoke. I could not contain myself.
I ran out to the EG Mobile rejuvenated.
I do not take photos when I am exhausted.
I came in with my camera.
I started to take photos.
I did not have permission.
I was inspired. Mark came up to me
and said, "Say, my photographer did not show up.
How much are those photos going to cost me?"
HCI, his publisher, paid the money.
It was $200.00.

Here is a note dated May 2, 1999:
To Mark,
The day "Chicken Soup for the Soul"
became a bestseller was the dau following
the American Bookseller Association
gathering in 1994 when it first came out.
I took the book to a stream.
I held the Dream--the Seed Dream.
I planted the Sale of Millions.
the rest is history.
I did this for Love.
