Inspiration NOT Motivation

Subscribe in a reader

Merriam-Webster defines Motivate as:

1 : something (as a need or desire) that causes a person to act

Merriam-Webster defines Inspiration as:

1 a: a divine influence or action on a person believed to qualify him or her to receive and communicate sacred revelation b: the action or power of moving the intellect or emotions

Motivation is a simple stimulus-response emotion. Someone or something gets you excited inside (motivate) and you react in a positive manner. Usually this emotional charge is temporary.

Inspiration goes into your deeper core, your soul. It drives you, moves you, and guides you down the road to not only change yourself but to assist/guide and impact other people's lives for the betterment of man.

For me I love to be inspired. It stays with you, inside you forever. It is an energy that gives you the ability to act on and produce results you never thought were possible. Inspiration is a force beyond words.

I'm inspired to change as many lives as I can financially. Give back to people the opportunity I have been given that has changed my financial life. There are many people not only suffering financially but ARE NOT on any path for retirement.

For those who are sick and tired of being sick and tired are the people who lives are being changed and they are loving every second of it. I'm hearing many stories of people who had lost hope only to find our opportunity that inspired them to take massive action and change their life. Does financial change happen over night? No! Absolutely not. But they see what I saw. Successful people willing to give their time and knowledge to me and others because they live a life of abundance!

Happy Inspiring!

I'll finish what I started. Here is Alex Van Halen's Drum solo for Right Here Right Now video from 1991's For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge Tour. I cannot find Michael Anthony's bass solo from this video so I put this one here.

Dreams + Blue Angels = An Awesome Music Video

Subscribe in a reader

Ok, I love Van Halen. My all time favorite band. I figured why not post another video of awesome guitar work of the Ultimate Amp Blaster and Face Melter, Eddie Van Halen, the powerful voice of Sammy Hagar, thundering bass of Michael Anthony (Go Mikey) and powerhouse drummer Alex Van Halen to go along with the mighty Blue Angels. If you have not seen the Blue Angels live, they are unbelievable!

I've met Mikey at the Hard Rock Cafe in Chicago in 2006, jammed with Sammy front row and the CEO of NR Jim Piccolo knows these guys and Eddie and Alex. I asked him about it at the April college and he said, oh yeah, I know those guys. I'm good friends with Michael Anthony and I've stayed at Eddie's and Val's place before. I NEARLY fell over talking to him about this (talk about hair raising). Now, I'm not the type of person to get all gitty about meeting celebrities, but MAN, to sit down with Eddie and watch him play on-one-on would be magic.
I have had the pleasure of seeing Van Halen 13 times in concert and Sammy 22 times with and without VH including front row for his birthday bash in Oct. 2003 at the Cabo Wabo Cantina. Greatest experience of my life!

Buckle up and let's go for a ride!

EDDIE VAN HALEN LAUNCHES THE ALL-NEW EVH® WOLFGANG® GUITAR: AVAILABLE JANUARY 2009

(Los Angeles, CA) Eddie Van Halen launches the all-new EVH® Wolfgang® electric guitar, available worldwide beginning Jan. 2009. The EVH Wolfgang guitar represents Eddie's 35 years of experimenting with guitars, over two years of intense research and development, and a full year of brutal road testing during the top-grossing Van Halen 2007-2008 tour.

It was during the massive 2007-2008 Van Halen tour that the all-new EVH Wolfgang guitar went through extensive live "road testing" performance trials. The tour kicked off in fall 2007, and Eddie punished early versions of the new Wolfgang each night; playing every updated prototype onstage under the full, unfiltered spotlight of his fans. The results are reflected in the EVH Wolfgang guitar; produced to Eddie's exact specifications and with features identical to the Wolfgang guitars he records and performs with.

"A guitar is a very personal extension of the person playing it. You have to be emotionally and spiritually connected to your instrument. I could have just stayed at home and built this guitar for myself. I do this because a lot of people ask if they can get what I use. Well, yes you can and what you get is identical to what I use," commented Eddie. "From the basics of the guitar to painstaking aspects like the binding and everything else-we re-did everything on this guitar."
"Every aspect and component of this guitar has been examined and upgraded to the highest standards possible: stainless steel frets, double-potted custom-wound pickups, five-piece binding on the matching body and headstock, custom-made signature tuning machines and Floyd Rose® bridge, new low-friction pots, and the list keeps going ... we left no stone unturned," said Eddie. "Everything that I've built, destroyed, stumbled onto, learned and experienced is in this guitar."

When Eddie Van Halen made his debut into the rock music scene in 1978, he did so with a homemade guitar (later known as "FrankensteinTM"). At a time when his monster technique and tone demanded a high-performance, indestructible guitar, he created his own to reach his own seemingly impossible standards. For over 35 years, he has continued to examine and improve every variable within the instrument, all culminating with the new EVH Wolfgang guitar.

In 2007, Eddie Van Halen and Fender® collaborated to launch the first EVH brand high-performance products, including the all-new EVH 5150III TM amplifier, the limited run of Eddie Van Halen FrankensteinTM replica guitars and an array of high-quality EVH brand accessories.

Elite Wealthy 1% Club = B + I

This was recorded at Nouveau Riche's April college. I was so excited sitting in the crowd. This was the night Jim Piccolo unveiled sketches for the $ 74 million Nouveau Riche Entrepreneurial Center.

Remember a true business is something you can walk away from for weeks at a time and still make money. Once you build the business and have it operating and managed properly, your time opens up for you to do whatever you want. You must work your tail off to get started but once it is in place, your time is yours.

I think of all the people who are trading time for dollars, yet complain and never do anything about it and wonder why? As one of my fellow investor friends said. Well, we will always need to someone to make the McDonald's french fries.

The gap between the wealthy and the poor will get larger. In order to close this gap, these people must change their mindset and take action.

Knowing the fact that the wealthy gained their riches through business ownership and real estate investing makes the one statement in this video very profound. Once again, it will only happen if you take action.
