The King of Pop was the First, Now what

In the after math of Michael Jackson's shocking death most are drudging up the past about the problems he was supposed to have. Most are aware of his peculiar behavior and actions, but the thing that sticks out to me most was that he did something that was never done before. Now it is common place in the music industry to do outlandish videos. When Thriller came out as a short film it was cutting edge, people did not know what to think, critics was at a lost for words, but he decided to take a chance and go against the grain. That is the greatness of Michael; we can all learn a thing or two from Mr. Jackson. There always has to be a pioneer, there will always be a first. In the immortal words of Sam Walton "There is really nothing new under the sun", we just take bits and pieces from each to see how it can help our particular business or project.

Go out today and try to think out of the box, stop putting limitations on yourself, the skies the limit. Michael showed us that it is possible to live your dreams, maybe not for ever but for a brief moment in time you too can have it all. Each morning I listen to a very inspirational tape created by nationally recognized Motivational speaker Les Brown and he always talks about this word "Possible" what do you feel is possible. Remember your life is about Choices, Challenges and Change, what choice you are going to make, are you going to be complacent and just live your life as you have till now are you going to take a stand for change and live your life full of possibilities.

You don't have to get it perfect - you just have to get it going. Babies don't walk the first time they try, but eventually they do. - Mark Victor Hansen

Ken Brown and Tawana Williams Ask? "Are You Ready to Successfully Change Your Life and Raise One Million Dollars for Detroit's Ronald McDonald House?"

(Detroit, MI.) Ken Brown and Tawana Williams challenge people to change their lives and raise a million dollars to help Detroit children and their families. Ken Brown, a man born of poor teenaged parents has achieved phenomenal success in business and in life. Tawana Williams has also overcome humble beginnings and disability to exemplify triumph over adversity and tenacity over discouragement. Tawana Williams was born without arms in 1963 to a young mother who lacked the resources to care for her. She is the author of two best selling books and the director of a 501-c3 non-profit organization dedicated to empowering individuals to live life without limits. Today Ken Brown and Williams have combined their powerful and inspiring messages to change lives as a team via the all-day L.I.F.E. Experience seminar on October 25th in Southfield from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm at the Marriott Hotel in Southfield Michigan.

Ken Brown and Tawana Williams offer everyone a unique opportunity to change their own lives while helping sick children and their families.

Ken Brown and Tawana Williams teach that by hard work, determination, tenacity and faith one can and must develop a solid work ethic and utilize a system unleashing excellence, inner-strength and high achievement on all levels. They teach how one can be freed from the clutches of poverty, dis-empowerment, drug addiction, lack of education and a sense of hopelessness to live a life of meaning, purpose, power and prosperity. This exemplifies the L.I.F.E. Experience.

Ken Brown and Tawana Williams are living testimonies to the fact that one can achieve and dream or reach any goal despite his or her humble beginnings or so-called disabilities if only she or he would refuse to lose and use whatever gifts or abilities one has to achieve more than anyone ever expected. Tawana Williams was born without arms, but she learned how to do what she needed to do with her feet. She brushed her teeth with her feet. She uses her computer and has written two books with her feet. This amazing woman even fed her baby and changed her diapers with her feet. Tawana has never allowed anything to prevent her from doing all that she might do and she is determined to help others to do all that they might do and to become all that they might be. Together Ken Brown and Tawana Williams are an unstoppable team for change.

Brown and Williams are highly acclaimed motivational speakers, life coaches and entrepreneurs. Both are exceptionally successful at teaching, inspiring and uplifting young minds. Their honesty and candid talk about faith, vision, purpose and passion inspires and motivates people to see a vision for their lives beyond their current circumstances.

POSSIBLE FRANCHISE OPPORTUNITY We are convinced this is the best marketing system ever created and we are ABSOLUTELY COMMITTED to continuing the use of this system with YTB. While there will be changes to the process as it relates to the sale of franchises, the downline genealogy and network marketing division will remain intact. We believe a franchise model of our existing business will be easier to comprehend and more readily accepted by the general public. Our commitment to becoming a world class travel company will be supported in the franchise system with additional tools and training for those who choose to actively pursue the travel business. Now let's talk about California & some of the Attacks being made on YTB : Have you ever heard of a company, that has never had a bad word spoken about them? Let me use an example of one company that you all know about and have heard about. Before I tell you the name of this company let me ask you a questions. Would you invest or buy stock in a company that has: Been sued so many times, can't be counted. Thousand if not millions of unhappy customers around the world. If you were to ask 8 out of 10 people about this company they will tell you that they have had a numerous bad experience with their product at least on a daily basis. More bad press then any company has ever had in history. In trouble with the department of Justice and local state agency for anti-trust in the past years. If you search Google and search for their name + lawsuit your will find 26,900 websites about this company. In trouble with the FTC numerous times. Paid millions of dollars in fines of t he years. Numerous class-action lawsuit currently in supreme courts. History of releasing bad products, before they have been tested properly. Oh, by the way I should also tell you that this company has over 80% of the market share in their category. Their stock price has been up and down over the years. Have also lost millions of customers over the years. I know what most of you are thinking, I would not only never use their product or service, but also would never buy their stock. Right? And, if you said NO, NO, NO. Then you would have missed out on one of the best producing companies in history. And most of you should just stop using your computer because the company I have been talking about is: Microsoft. My point is: That if you are looking for bad news about any company you will find it. If people are not talking about a company, the company is most likely not growing or doing anything. People love bad news, bad news sells. It took Microsoft over 15 years to hit 1 Billion in sales annually. YTB is about to do it in 8. Only 90 BBB filings against YTB? In comparison to other similar online agencies listed in Travel Weekly's top 35, that's a great track record! Other BBB top complaint companies: Expedia.com - The BBB processed a total of 1024 complaints about this company in the last 36 months. Orbitz - The BBB processed a total of 1729 complaints about this company in the last 36 months Travelocity - Number of complaints processed by the BBB in the last 36 months: 1528. And in the last 12 months: 533. Not to mention...American Express (Travel Related Services Co.) - The BBB processed a total of 606 complaints about this company in the last 12 MONTHS. Some of you know and some of you don't know that California filed a lawsuit against YTB for deceptive sales practices and operating a pyramid scheme. We don't have any secrets here at YTB and we don't keep any secrets. YTB has been in meetings with California for months over a new proposed law in that state concerning the travel industry and it's potential impact on our business. The discussions reached a stalemate and California filed suit. Folks, this is not the first time YTB has been challenged. When any company is revolutionizing an industry, and growing faster than any other company in the industry, the industry doesn't like it. In our case, that is the travel industry. It is not a coincidence that last year YTB showed up as #35 on the Power List, and within 3 months we were challenged by IATA, Royal Caribbean, and Rhode Island. Why do you think that happened? The industry doesn't like us. Now we are #26 on the Power List. This lawsuit is a result of the INDUSTRY putting pressure on the lawmakers, not an issue of whether YTB is in compliance with California law. We will be challenged. We will be shot at. It has happened to EVERY company that changed an industry. It happend to Microsoft, Walmart, IBM, McDonalds, Amway, Mary Kay, Excel, A.L. Williams, and every other company that revolutionized their industry. Why do you think we would be different --- especially when we are taking over the largest indutry in the world? This is EXPECTED. Coach, Scott, and Kim are not rookies to this business. They have fought these battles before and won. The blessing WE have is that we have them running the show, and they have "been there, done that" before and been victorious. During this time we will lose some weak reps. We know that. There will be competitors out there trying to steal our people. We know that. There will be some fear and indecision out there. We know that too. But there will also be LEADERS that step up. There will be CHAMPIONS born. There will be people t hat just decide that WE ARE READY for a fight. That's US. WE are READY FOR THE FIGHT. We are READY to go kick some butt. We are READY to STAND UP AND LEAD OUR TEAM THROUGH THIS CHALLENGE. DON'T YOU EVER DOUBT your company's commitment to YOU. DON'T YOU EVER DOUBT that we will win this thing. DON'T YOU EVER DOUBT that YTB will be the #1 Travel Company in the World --- No Matter What We Have To Go Through. REST ASSURED --- YTB is all over this issue. Our attorneys are already in California working on this. This WILL BE RESOLVED, and when it is, YTB will be even stronger because of it. Have faith in Coach, Scott, Kim, and your company to handle this matter. They will handle it. It is just a bump in the road. There are 4 things that WE can do to help. 1) Sell more travel. Tell EVERYONE you know that you own a travel business and ask them to book their travel with someone they know vs someone they don't know. The more travel we sell, the more power we have. 2) Sell more Travel Stores. Go find every friend you have that wants to get paid to travel, get tax deductions when they travel, and travel for less, and sell them a travel store. The more travel stores we have, the more travel we sell. 3) Do not talk to the media. If someone tries to talk to you that has a notebook, a microphone or a camera, just tell them to send their questions to media@ytb.com, and refuse to talk with them. We have to let Coach, Scott and Kim fight this battle. We need to stay out of it. 4) Step Up and LEAD YOUR TEAM. Nobody wants to follow a weak, disillusioned, crybaby, pansy. At times like this, they look for STRONG, COMMITT ED, POWERFUL Leadership. You need to STEP UP and be that LEADER for your team. Talk to them. Keep them informed. Let them know where you stand. Tell them --- You can quit if you want to, but I'M STAYING RIGHT HERE FOR THE FIGHT. It's gonna be WORTH it to me and my family for generations to come. That's what Leaders do. Team, Coach, Scott, Kim, and all of the Directors that were in the convention meeting are a FAMILY. We are here for the long haul. There is NO FEAR in any of our eyes. None of us came here to get this far and fail. WE WILL WIN THIS THING. WE WILL BE THE #1 Travel Company in the world. WE ARE READY FOR THE FIGHT. We never said it would be EASY. We said it would be WORTH IT. You just BE TOUGH, and communicate to your teams that they just have to BE TOUGH, and we will ALL WIN. Let's go BUILD A COMPANY TOGETHER. "Only The Strong Will Survive"

What You Focus on the Longest Will Become Your Strongest

"Do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may prosper wherever you go." Joshua 1:7

To be focused means having a keen sense of direction. Every thought, action and association has a purpose. Outstanding leaders are focused. They know what they are doing and why they are doing it. To become more focused a leader should:

1. Live on Purpose: We must understand that our life is a gift from God and the use of our life is a gift to God. Do not confuse profession with purpose.

2. Know Thy Self: Outstanding leaders know their strengths and opportunities. Stay in your lane. Do what you do best and delegate the rest.

3. Keep the Main Thing the Main Thing: A double minded man is unstable in all his ways. All distractions are equal. Keep you eyes on the prize.

4. Be a Master: If you try to do everything that comes your way, you will not excel at anything. Remember, a specialist earns much more that a generalist.

5. Commit to Life Long Learning: Always be coachable. Invest in self-improvement. Steven Covey calls it sharpening the saw. The market pays according to your value. Once you increase your skills the market will pay you accordingly.

Sticks and Stones

At an early age, I discovered the power of words. I can remember running home to my parents crying because the kids in our neighborhood would say hurtful things like, “You are so poor you can't pay attention!” It was true. We were poor, but that fact did not make the taunting any less painful. Unfortunately for me, however, I could pay attention and I paid close attention to the every hurtful word hurled at me. Those cruel words pierced into my soul just as sure as any knife would have.

My parents attempted to make it better by insisting that I retaliate by saying the old school yard comeback, “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will not hurt me". As much as I repeated the retort, the power of the cruel words lingered on within me somehow. My parents were right about a lot of things, but they missed the mark big time on this sticks, stones and words. I now know for a fact that sticks and stones may break your bones and words will not only hurt you they can kill you!

According to the book of Proverbs the power of life and death are in the tongue. WOW.... That is truth. I often witness people that I coach or lead in my business as they talk themselves into or out of situations and circumstances. I believe that your success is in your mouth.

I always wanted to own and operate a restaurant. I would use " The 5 yard rule”. I would tell anyone that came within 5 yards of me that my business name is Ken's Hot Dog Stand. A couple of years later I was presented an opportunity to purchase 2 McDonald's Franchises.

Words are the most powerful force in the universe. Your words are the power that you have to create. Your word is the gift that comes directly from God. Through the word you manifest your intent, regardless of what language you speak. What you dream, what you feel, and what you really are will all be manifested through the words you speak.

The word is a force. It is the power you have to communicate, to think, and to there-by to create the events on your life. Remember, to be Impeccable with your words. If you are interested to hear the entire story of how was able to speak my way to success and wealth or if you are ready to move to the next level and need coaching, visit me at www.KenBrownInternational.com

Phil Knight Say "Just Do It"

The phrase ‘Just Do It’ has become a legendary mantra of self-sufficiency, rugged individualism and fearlessness. If you look deeply enough you can see that there is much more to the statement than meets the eye. Oft times in life we just have to face our fears and do it (whatever “it” is) anyway. Phil Knight had fears just as most people do when it comes to starting something new, but Phil Knight did it anyway.

Nike is a household name that came out of necessity. Mr. Knight was a great track athlete in the late 50's when he starred as a miler at Oregon. He experimented with different techniques to improve his times. He was very good. Roger Bannister broke the 4-minute mile in 1954 and Phil's best times were 4:10. Not bad. That being said, Phil Knight decided that there was a better shoe that could be made in Japan as opposed to the shoes that were being made in Germany at the time.

In 1962 Knight wrote a term paper for one of his graduate school courses. The paper was titled, "Can Japanese Sports Shoes Do to German Sports Shoes what Japanese Camera's Did to German Camera's?” Now just look at the time in between 1971 when Knight’s first shoe sold out and that term paper in 1962. In less than 10 years Knight created an unstoppable force by just doing it!

I did a little research into what Mr. Knight is worth today. The man is worth a cool 10 billion dollars. I am not saying someone reading this article can be worth 10 billion dollars like Phil Knight is today and I am not saying that saying that someone reading (or writing) this article cannot be worth 10 billion within the next decade. I am saying that it is possible. That’s huge. Sit with it for a minute…

It is possible for you or me to manifest a net worth of over 10 billion dollars in the 10 years. And before you start rolling yours eyes chew on this wise quote by Mr. Henry Ford, “If you think you can do a thing or think you can't do a thing, you're right.”

It is possible for you to keep doing the same thing for the rest of your life and to keep getting what you’ve always gotten till your life is over. Or it is possible for you to ‘JUST DO IT’ (whatever ‘IT’ is) and change your life for the better forever. It is possible!

There is something very special about the world possible. It can be used in a positive manner such as, "I think it's possible to do this or that." Or it can be used in a negative capacity as in, “Man, that's just not possible." Either way the person saying it is right. How would this tie into becoming successful in real estate? The thing I try to impress on individuals daily is that time is on your side. Donald Trump did not become "The Donald" overnight and neither will you.

Take daily consistent actions towards your goals. Empower yourself and improve your odds by first educating yourself. Phil Knight was a track athlete who studied the game and went to earn a Master’s degree to further enhance his success. I'm not saying you need to take the exact same route that Phil or even Donald Trump took (he has a Master's degree from the Wharton School of Business). I am saying that you need to define your own goals, dreams and aspirations and go for them doggedly. If your goal requires a Master’s degree, get registered for college. If it requires excellent physical condition, join a gym and hire a personal trainer. What ever your dreams or goals require you to possess in order to manifest them—just do it!

The main thing I want to impart on those willing to risk their time, energy, efforts, and money is to take steps daily to improve your chances of success. Take specialty classes like real estate training courses and take courses specifically for your field of choice. Someone asked me once why I continue to go to seminars and continue to read books on my field. I answered with the following the question, “Would you go to a doctor or a lawyer who was not current on new cutting edge techniques or new laws that could help there clients win?” Most respond with a resounding “NO!” to that question. Yet I get the same question on a daily basis. Things change daily and so should you. There is no such thing as learning to much when it comes to reaching your highest goals and embracing your fondest dreams.

In closing, PREPARE! Increase your chances of succeeding in real estate by educating yourself with specific classes that can get you to your desired goals faster and more efficiently. Explore the possibilities. If you could invest 5K today and in 12 months it could pay you back 60k, would that be a good investment or a bad one? Do you understand how to evaluate an investment such as that? Do you know what your ROI (return on investment) ought to be with that amount of money over that length of time? Would you like to understand how money grows and how real estate investing really works? My guess is that you do or you would not be reading this message. You’d be off watching celebrity gossip, whining about gas prices or text messaging your neighbor about some trivial pursuit.

You are reading this message and that means that your possibilities have already greatly increased. With a few good mentors, the proper education in a reputable real estate course and a little common sense and diligence on your part, you can drastically change your life. You can tap into your own inner power to be free. You are serious about changing your life and learning how to generate wealth through real estate investing. You just need to surround yourself with like-minded people. You need real solid information, assistance, direction and encouragement from people who understand the field. You need to stop wasting time and get started on building the rest of your life.

A group of us are meeting this week. Some Power to Be Free members are new to real estate investing. Some have been involved for a couple of years, are making a little money and are now ready to learn more and earn more. Some are real estate investing millionaires who want to show others how to do what they do. Too many people will never make this meeting. They will never know what we have to teach them. This is your opportunity to expand your possibilities and learn what too many people just do not know. So, please, don’t just think about coming to the meeting.

In the Words of Phil Knight "Just Do It"

BAD NEWS SELLS

Have you ever heard of a company, that has never had a bad word spoken about them?
Let me use an example of one company that you all know about and have heard about.

Before I tell you the name of this company let me ask you a questions.

Would you invest or buy stock in a company that has:

• Been sued so many times, can't be counted.
  
  
• Thousand if not millions of unhappy customers around the world.
  
  
• If you were to ask 8 out of 10 people about this company they will tell you that they
  have had a numerous bad experience with their product at least on a daily basis.
  
  
• More bad press then any company has ever had in history.
  
  
• In trouble with the department of Justice and local state agency for anti-trust in the past years.
  
  
• If you search Google and search for their name + lawsuit your will find 26,900 websites about this company.
  
  
• In trouble with the FTC numerous times.
  
  
• Paid millions of dollars in fines of the years.
  
  
• Numerous class-action lawsuit currently in supreme courts.
  
  
• History of releasing bad products, before they have been tested properly.
  Oh, by the way I should also tell you that this company has over 80% of the market share in their category.
  
  
• Their stock price has been up and down over the years.
  
  
• Have also lost millions of customers over the years.
  

I know what most of you are thinking, I would not only never use their product or service,
but also would never buy their stock.

Right?

And, if you said NO, NO, NO. Then you would have missed out on one of the best producing companies in history.

And most of you should just stop using your computer because the company I have been talking about is: Microsoft.

My point is:

That if you are looking for bad news about any company you will find it. If people are not talking
about a company, the company is most likely not growing or doing anything.

People love bad news, bad news sells.

It took Microsoft over 15 years to hit
1 Billion in sales annually.
