Duplication Article by Jayne Johnson

At our 7:30am Round Table Meeting held on 9/25/07, Jayne had another great half hour speech on Duplication!!

"Duplication: Impartial perception; it’s perceiving something exactly, precisely, with no alteration.
Example: if a person says, “green apple,” the listener gets “green apple,” not “apple,” or “red apple” or
“green apple with a brown stem.” You get something exactly as it is. No spin on it, no change to it, no
“I agree” or “I disagree” type of judgment tacked on to it. You just get IT, precisely, with nothing
added to it or subtracted from it.
Misduplication: The prefix “mis” means “wrong” or “incorrect,” etc. Misduplication is perceiving
something inaccurately, incorrectly; it could include adding more to it or subtracting something from
it.
Adding more to it could mean putting a spin on it or putting an interpretation to it. This is often done
through judging, assessing, evaluating, associating, or identifying. Example: You perceive a certain
look on your friend’s face and interpret it as anger. You say, “What are you mad about?” Your friend
says, “Nothing, I’m not angry. I was just thinking about something.”

America's top oil suppliers to slash exports by 2012: CIBC World Markets

I was carpooling with one of my co-workers at work, Bob Turner, the oil man at Rich Dad's. We were listening to the news and heard that the oil barrel has gone up to $83.50 per barrel! Then he saw this article:

America's top oil suppliers to slash exports by 2012: CIBC World Markets
Global supply gap, surging prices will shift attention to oil deposits north of border

NEW YORK, Sept. 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - CIBC - Six of the largest oil suppliers to the U.S. are poised to significantly cut exports by 2012, ramping up pressure on supply and price, and intensifying the focus on one of the last great deposits open to private investment: Canada's oil sands.

The forecasted cuts by Mexico, Saudi Arabia, Venezuela, Nigeria, Algeria and Russia are the subject of a keynote address that Jeff Rubin, chief market strategist and chief economist at CIBC World Markets will deliver at the firm's Industrial Conference Oct. 2 in New York City. In his remarks, Mr. Rubin will share his latest research on the global oil supply/demand balance, with specific focus on the size and scope of the oil supply crunch facing the U.S. over the next five years.

Big Favor to ask.........................................................



Please tell ten friends to tell ten today! The Breast Cancer site is having trouble getting enough people to click on their site daily to meet their quota of donating at least one free mammogram a day to an underprivileged woman. It takes less than a minute to go to their site and click on 'donating a mammogram' for free (pink window in the middle).

This doesn't cost you a thing. Their corporate sponsors /advertisers use the number of daily visits to donate mammogram in exchange for advertising.
Here's the web site! Pass it along to people you know.

Success Principles Mentorship Message # 2


Click here to purchase the book

This lesson is pretty cool. It taught me something that I never do! Need to Acknowledge your past success. We remember our failures more than our successes. The more self-esteem you have the more risk you are willing to take. Divide your own life into 3 equal time periods:

#1 - Birth to age 20

Think of things that you have accomplished, victories, etc. Like the first time you learn how to ride a bike, participate in a school play, learned how to spell a really tough word, graduating from high school, wrote an essay, etc.

#2 - Age 20 to 40

Same thing as above, maybe got the job you always wanted, relationship, house etc.

#3 - Age 40 to 60

Same as above

Then the lesson takes you to another exercise, list 100 or more successes. Boy was that hard!! At first I just couldn't. Once I read into the lesson more than it became easier.

Another lesson is to do a Victory Log daily.

What successes can you come up with? Comments?

"Looping" by Jayne Johnson


In our 7:30am Round Table meeting last Tuesday, 9/11/07, Jayne Johnson spoke on a subject called "Looping" She is a Clearing Practitioner for Robert and Kim Kiyosaki. She also attends our early meetings every week and she give us an half an hour of her speech. Have you ever felt that you were stuck and you couldn't move forward? There can be different reasons why one gets stuck. Consider the idea that people sometimes communicate their opinions as if their opinions were facts. They may not be facts to the listeners, but the speaker, even the most well-meaning friend for loved one, at times will communicated to you as facts. One comment can suddenly put you stuck in a mystery that you now must solve. So you ask yourself questions, questions for which you probably have no solid answers. Now you are caught in a loop, puzzled, second guessing yourself, and worrying, with lots of maybes and I wonder why swirling around in your head. When we are certain we feel good, when we are uncertain, we loop around and around trying to become certain. Sound familiar?? Find yourself doing that?? I know I have. It is self-doubt about what you thought you were sure about an can lead to worry and stress quickly. Boy is that a fact! The opinions of others can often be helpful, but at times they are flat out wrong. If you fail to notice that and abandon your own certainty, the trap is set. You are unwittingly throwing your own truth out the window. Looping comes from doubting yourself. Is there a solution to this?? Sure there are, TRUST YOURSELF AND DON'T BUY IN. Someone says something to you, is it true to you? If it is not, then acknowledge that to yourself because rebuttals to the other person often produce an argument or upset. Simple silent recognition accomplish four things:

1. Prevents you from looping
2. Keeps you from being engulfed in mystery
3. Releases stress you may incur from being told something that is worrisome to you
4. Gives you certainty about yourself and your own truths

This is an article she wrote in her Goals Workshop Companion Workbook. You can also check out her website by clicking here

Any body have any comments or feedback?

It is true that every one has the right to have and express his or her own opinions, when you consciously distinguish between your own opinions and the opinions of others, you show respect for both the other person and yourself.
