A Tribute to Renegade Thinkers

As you probably know by now, there are TWO very important elements required to achieve what you
want in this journey we call life; and those two elements relate to the two sides of you: spiritual and physical. Inner and outer.

Neither is better than the other, because like the rest of the Universe, we operate in total balance.

Sit and meditate or visualize all day, without DOING, and you won’t get results.

Work your butt off all day, with no understanding of your beliefs, purpose, or the importance of
down time to nurture your inner self, and you won’t get results.

At Life Without Limits, we go out of our way to offer you both… and for little or no monetary investment (because we know you still have to invest the time, AND we love to over-deliver on value)…

The Beach and the Forest

This weekend, Barry and I met my parents for a little adventure — the Northern California coastline, the Southern Oregon coastline, and the Redwood forests.

Yes, that one little pocket of the world contains sandy beaches, rocky shorelines, and awe-inspiring trees, all within a few miles of each other.

Mom, Barry and Dad in Cali

Here’s Barry with my parents by the California beach…

And Dad’s taking my picture as I take theirs!

You’d never know it was North instead of South… this is the type of beautiful beach that you could find and enjoy in nearly any warm climate area in the world.

If you blindfolded someone and brought them here, they’d probably never guess where they were!

Then we moved further North up the coastline, where it turns rockier (and windier! Wow!) but just as beautiful.

Heather - Oregon coastThis is me above the point where the sand and rocks meet… like teeny rocks that have been formed from what the big rocks once were.

Millions of years of history can be seen in a place like this — and it’s amazing that we get to experience it.

I like to imagine it 100 years ago. Did it look the same?

What about 1,000 years ago?

How many people have stood, just like me, above the beach with the wind whipping all around them?

Things like that make me stop and contemplate the world we live in, and the way it has unfolded over time.

It also makes me enjoy the moment, even as I think fleetingly about other moments that have also been enjoyed in that very same spot.walking in Jedediah forest

After that we headed back south and went through the Redwood forests, on a small trail off the beaten path (literally — it’s just a dirt road), stopping every now and then to take a short hike into the huge trees.

This picture gives you some idea of the size of the giant Redwoods, as Barry walked behind the rest of us… but for some reason, none of the pictures we took really did them justice.

The awe-factor somehow seemed to go missing as soon as the 3-D world was captured on a 2-D photo.

This really makes me think about our significance (or rather, insignificance) in the vastness of the Universe.

It makes me appreciate everything we’ve created, everything we co-exist with, and everything that defines what we call home.

And of course, it makes me appreciate those I love that were there to experience it with me.

Shakespeare Meets Old West and Canada in Ashland

Mom Dad and Heather in AshlandMy parents came to visit a few days ago… they’re here for almost a 2-week stay, and they’re planning to see as much of the area as they can during that time.

They’ve never been to Oregon, but it’s strangely reminiscent of Ontario in a lot of ways (besides both starting with an “O”)… for instance, both have beautiful rivers and tree-filled scenery, and both have Shakespearean festivals that are among the top in the world.

So Barry and I thought they’d enjoy going to a play here at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival in Ashland… and I decided on A Comedy of Errors, which was presented as a Western musical.

Yes, Shakespeare, Western twangs, and song-and-dance — all in the same play.

This picture of us is one Barry took a few hours before the show, walking around the quaint historic downtown Ashland. And since my Dad is a retired history professor, we knew he’d like the old-time aspects of the town, and also the local school — so we took him to explore the campus of Southern Oregon University.

It’s interesting how things happen in patterns in life… and no matter where we go, we find things that remind us of home.

It reminds me of the saying, “Wherever you go, there you are.”

I moved 3,000 miles across the continent, and to a different country, almost a year ago… to follow my heart.

And here I am.

7 Figure Secrets Are Yours… Almost FREE!

7 Figure Secrets, the long-awaited resource by Mike Filsaime, has just been released to the pubic. This is a top-notch manual on how to not only start your own online business, but how to grow it to the level of 7-figure sales (yes, that’s right… millions).

And the best part is… it’s FREE!

This is actually a physical product that gets shipped to your door (along with a pile of other extras worth hundreds of dollars, including the Butterfly Marketing Manuscript that tons of customers have already purchased for $97) and all you actually have to pay for is the shipping and handling… which is less than 10 bucks! (Actually it’s less than 8, but “less than 10″ rolls off the tongue easier!) ;-)

Anyone that wants to market online should certainly be able to pay $7.99 to get these free and powerful resources that promise to make it happen.

The information in this manual comes from a life changing seminar, The 2007Figure Seminar, that many of our friends attended and paid $5,000 for. Then a DVD set was created from it, The 7 Figure Code, that people are currently paying $1,297 for.

You’ll discover how to pick a niche, vision and mission that TRULY works for you, and therefore impact the world — and your bank account — doing what you love.

We believe everyone should be paid for what they are passionate about and good at — and this manual will help you do that, as well as live the leveraged lifestyle, be your own boss, get things done even if you don’t know how… and a lot more.

And it’s not just all hands-on, either — there’s a lot here about inner world success, having the right mindset, and using metaphysical laws to have truly well-rounded success.

And not only that, but if you get this free package (for just the price of shipping and handling) then you ALSO get an amazing bonus from us… 30 minutes of phone time from either Barry or myself, to strategize, consult, coach or whatever you like.

You might want to talk about marketing, creating a product, connecting with people, interviewing, metaphysics or life in general — it’s your call, and your 30 minutes (by the way, I usually sell my interviewing consultations for $500, and Barry sells marketing consultations for even more).

And all of this is yours for almost free!

Placating Our Kids With Placebos?

Brian Johnson, our marketing assistant at LWL Worldwide, sent us an interesting article yesterday.

It’s about a placebo pill developed by a woman who wanted to control her niece’s hypochondria by giving her some kind of pill — preferably not a drug, since her mother-in-law (also a nurse) had suggested Motrin.

Since placebos were not readily available at the drug store, she decided to develop one for kids called Obecalp (”placebo” spelled backwards). Basically a gummy candy that’s meant to taste bad so children think it’s medicine.

The whole article in the NY Times is here.

Okay, hold on a second… I sense good intentions from the inventor — after all, she didn’t want to give her children or her niece REAL drugs — but, come on! What the heck are we trying to teach our kids with this kind of “solution”?

We Manifested A Dream House!

Well, for the past several months Barry and I have been looking at EVERY house in the local market that fell within a certain price range.

But we’re picky… we need somewhere we can live and work together 24/7, since we work out of the home. We need a place that has room for two offices (we work separately because when one of us is on the phone, interviewing someone or chatting up business associates and JV partners, or recording audios or screen-capture videos, both of us need to be able to concentrate, and not be interrupted).

And of course, we also need someplace with a separate bedroom for the baby that’s both near our bedroom, and my office, so he/she (we’re now affectionately calling the baby Mango instead of Peanut since that’s about the size he/she is) can get immediate attention when required, and when not sleeping right beside me.

We need a nice yard, where we can work outside if we want, or get some fresh air while still having privacy, or meditate and connect with nature… and we need to be away from noisy streets for sanity, and so we don’t have traffic noises in every recording we do.

We also need room for our home gym and our video studio. We need a big walk-in closet (yes, NEED, or else we have to live in an uninspiring mess). And we need modern bathroom and kitchen facilities, with a double sink in the master (because that’s what we’re used to) and granite or tile counter tops in the kitchen, including an island in the middle (because that’s what we like).

Yup, we need the perfect house… but we want this champagne-grade house on a beer budget.

And finally we found it… or, perhaps, it found us…

I’m Finally FRE!

Since I’ve been pregnant (or at least, since I’ve know about it at 6 weeks) of course I haven’t been drinking any wine — even though in Europe pregnant women drink it without consequence, and in Canada they used to say a glass “every now and then” was okay — because here in the U.S. it’s Zero Tolerance (no alcohol for pregnant women).

Actually they’re just being safe, because some studies have shown it takes much more alcohol than a glass of wine every few weeks to cause problems — BUT since they “don’t know” how much is safe, they just say “none at all”. Better safe than sorry, and I’m fine with that, even though I feel they’re probably being over-cautious.

But I really have missed my wine — not so much for the alcohol, but because I enjoy the taste, I enjoy the antioxidant health benefits, and I enjoy the ritual of sipping a fine beverage from a fancy glass.

Enter my savior… Sutter Home Fre (alcohol-removed) wine!

Another Acupuncture Allergy Combination

Yesterday I went back to my acupuncturist to see how the sugar allergy treatment went… but I’ve been having severe digestive issues the past week again, and we found out it was related (for the second time, now indicating a “pattern”) to a combination reaction — requiring a second treatment for the same food group.

Last time that happened, Dr. Doss decided the “combination” was physical and emotional… so he had done an emotional clearing, and I didn’t have to avoid any foods for the first time during these sessions.

This time it seemed to be physical though.  He didn’t treat me with any needles (like he said last time, my body is allowing less and less needles to be used each time) and ended up doing acupressure instead of acupuncture.  That treatment included a Shiatsu-type massage at the back of my head and neck, and the massaging of my lymph glands, which are for some reason swollen and tender.

It was nice, but I was kind of hoping for another BodyTalk emotion-clearing session, and not having to avoid foods again (since we treated sugar, I had to avoid fruit too — and that’s what I crave more than anything, especially since I was thinking we’d move on to grains and the “limited” diet for that one INCLUDES all fruit).  No such luck… it was a regular treatment, and I had to avoid the sugar all over again.

Not that I minded so much avoiding refined sugar — after all, I did that for 10 years of my life — but I have never avoided fruit, except when I was a kid and didn’t really care for it, and during some of these other acupuncture allergy treatments (like Vitamin C and Vitamin B).

Oh well, hopefully that’s one of the last times ever, since I should now be cured… and now, just writing about it, I’m getting another craving for fruit, so it’s time to go and eat some! ;-)

A Different View of Human Rights

Bloggers UniteMay 15 is Bloggers Unite for Human Rights day… where the call is out for bloggers to “use their space to make the world a better place”.

There are many human rights issues that deserve to be talked about. My personal issue though, is with the way journalists have often been treated, and now — through expansion — censorship of the internet.

Barry made a great post on his blog about Net Neutrality that is a good place to start on that topic. If you publish OR consume content on the internet; if you like to be able to go to whatever sites you want, regardless of what ISP you choose; if you actually want to receive emails that you subscribe to; then you need to care about Net Neutrality.

And of course, this is just an extension of the censorship that has been going on in mainstream media for years. The internet is the media of the people — anybody can create a video, audio, article, e-book, or nearly any kind of content and distribute it online, including very professional “radio” and “TV” shows that are webcast or podcast rather than broadcast… and is in essence “the medium of all media” in the way that you can mimic any other form of media online (be it print, TV, radio, or anything else).

The true “journalist” — even in mainstream media — really believes that they are working for the people, and publishing our “right to know” for the good of all. But true journalism doesn’t really exist in mainstream media, try as hard as the reporters might.

Yes, journalists around the world are being wrongfully jailed, tortured, and even killed for publishing (or attempting to publish) stories that certain countries want to censor and keep under wraps. Those governments don’t believe that people have the “right to know”…
