Think And Grow Rich Software
Hello High-Achiever,
--- Welcome to MARK'S CORNER ---
Last weekend Google Video showed the wealth-building movie: THE SECRET. When I found out about it, I immediately dashed off an alert to you and others on my priority list. Hopefully, you were able to watch it.
For just a moment, consider how a couple THINK AND GROW RICH principles relate to the showing of the video and my newsflash to you.
Napoleon Hill said, “Through the aid of the sixth sense, you will be warned of impending dangers in time to avoid them and notified of opportunities in time to embrace them.”
Were you notified in time? Did you check your e-mail by accident? Were you already thinking about that movie?
If you were notified in time, did you use the 7th step to riches - Decision? Did you decide to watch the movie? I know many did because of the notes of appreciation I received in response to the newsflash.
I’m only bringing this up because today you are going to make many more decisions. How many of them will help you ‘think and grow rich’? Will you listen to the enlightened voice that is constantly whispering in your ear? You can, you know.
Quote Of The Day
"The doors we open and close each day decide the lives we live.”
How John Mackie Turned a Healthy Diet into a Successful Career!
I was watching 60 minutes recently...sort of half tuned in. Letting the program play in the background of my attention.
Suddenly, I was jerked to full awareness.
John Mackie was being introduced. I had heard the name before but that isn’t what caused me to sit up. It was the man himself.
There was a presence about him that shouted success...and more. He gave the impression of being totally comfortable with who he was and his relationship to the universe.
I’m not speaking of conceit. In fact there was a gentle humbleness about him.”
John told his story quite simply and honestly to Dan Rather. In the sixties he was a full-fledged hippy who lived in a commune while attending college. The love that he learned during this time...for others...for nature...and for animals...has always remained with him.
Also, at the commune, he developed a passion for eating healthy, whole organic foods. And it was then that he found his life's purpose. Giving people fun, wholesome and healthy food choices. (Note that word purpose. It’s an important part of the Think Rich Software Program.)
In 1978, John’s purpose led him to establish an Austin, Texas health food store called Safer Way. It was not your traditional health food store filled with synthetic vitamins and other processed ‘health food’. He stayed true to his concern for sharing a diet of whole, non-processed, chemical-free foods and refused any compromises...even when it meant lower profits.
In 1980, an opportunity came along to merge with another similar health food outlet in Austin and the Whole Foods Market was formed.
Today, the Whole Foods Market has 183 locations and is worth over 9 billion dollars. Over the past five years, the company’s stock has grown faster than Yahoo, Ebay or Microsoft. And from an employment base of only 19, they now provide jobs for more than 39,000 people.
Has success spoiled John Mackie?
You’ve no doubt read many stories about successful business people who fell in love with money and power on the way to the top. Some of these people are now in prison or on their way. Others live broken lives, hiding behind a charade of non-stop work to get more and more.
What about John? Recently, he took five months off to walk the Appalachian Trail. It wasn’t a competitive thing. He didn’t do it to be able to say, “I walked the Appalachian Trail.”
He walked that trail because John loves nature and animals. So he takes the time to enjoy this love which adds a wonderful dimension and balance to his life.
He also expresses his love for animals through such movements as Animal Compassion Standards. He fights against the way animals are treated at factory farms and refuses to sell their products.
How Important is Quality Of Life?
For example, he stopped selling live lobsters in his stores because of the way they were treated from capture to sale. Dan Rather, on the "60 Minutes" news show, tried to ridicule this policy, much to his regret.
Dan asked John, “What difference does it make whether you have a happy lobster or not? That lobster is going to end up being dropped in boiling water. In other words, it’s going to be a dead lobster so the quality of its life doesn’t much matter.”
John calmly asked, “Dan, are you going to die someday?”
“You bet,” Dan answered, somewhat smugly.
“Then the quality of your life doesn’t much matter, does it. I mean, you’re going to die some day anyway so what’s the difference whether you’re happy or not. You still get dropped in your own pot?”
Dan switched to another topic.
Notice how Napoleon Hill’s, Think & Grow Rich Philosophy impacted John’s life.
I have no way of knowing whether John Mackie actually read, Think & Grow Rich. And it doesn’t much matter.
So much of what Napoleon Hill teaches was part of John’s life. Whether he learned these principles from a system such as the Think Rich Software...a book...or simply from life, is not terribly important. The fact that he did learn them is all important.
Consider the success steps in John’s life and career:
1. He had a passionate purpose. Providing Healthy foods.
2. He gave expression to that passion by setting up a health food store.
3. He refused to compromise his beliefs and standards by stocking synthetic or over-processed foods or inhuman animal factory products.
4. Within two years, growth opportunities were attracted to him.
5. He took action to incorporate these opportunities into his business.
6. During the years of growth, he never lost sight of the need to keep a balance in his life.
Listen in while John talks to a group of Whole Foods Market employees.
“Wake up! Wake up! Learn and grow. Evolve your consciousness to higher levels. Open your heart wider. Extend your love and compassion further.”
Not exactly a corporation executive type speech. But that’s one of the reasons why Whole Foods is rated 15th among the best 100 companies in the nation to work for.
It reminds me of what Napoleon Hill wrote. “Awake, arise, and assert yourself, you dreamers of the world. Your star is now in the ascendancy.”
Another quote from Napoleon Hill ties in almost directly with John Mackie’s employee speech. “The emotions of FAITH, LOVE and SEX are the most powerful of all the major positive emotions. When the three are blended, they have the effect of ‘coloring’ the vibration of thought in such a way that it instantly reaches the subconscious mind, where it is changed into its spiritual equivalent, the only form that induces a response from Infinite Intelligence.”
Are you learning the principles that propelled John Mackie into the upper atmosphere of success?
A few rare people learn the lessons of success through the process of living. But, unfortunately, most of us don’t.
Napoleon Hill discovered and incorporated these principles into his amazing book, Think & Grow Rich. These same principles now provide the framework for a dynamic and effective interactive software program called the Think Rich Software.
Not only does this program enable you to learn the principles of successful living both easily and fast...but it allows you to track your growth and permanently capture personal insights, shortcuts and steps.
It’s one thing to read about a subject. But to really make it a part of your life requires daily study and personal involvement. This is part of the secret behind the success and growing popularity of the Think Rich Software.

--- FUNNY OF THE DAY ----
Funny of The Day:
A Texas millionaire had fallen ill. The doctors consulted did not seem to understand what ailed him. The millionaire let it be known that any doctor who could heal him could have whatever he desired.
A country doctor was finally able to cure him, and as the doctor was leaving after a week's stay, the Texan said, "Doc! I am a man of my word. You name it, and if it is humanly possible I'll get it for you."
"Well," said the doctor, "I love to play golf, so if I could have a matching set of golf clubs, that would be fine." With that the physician left.
The doctor didn't hear from the Texan millionaire for some months. Then, one day, he got a phone call from the millionaire.
"Doc, I bet you thought that I had gone back on my word. I have your matching set of golf clubs. The reason it took so long is that two of them didn't have swimming pools, and I didn't think they were good enough for ya. So I had pools installed and they're all ready for you now!"
Well, that's all for today. Know that I'm in your corner.
And keep Thinking And Growing Rich!
