LWL Tools — Life Accelerated!
It’s come to our attention — more vividly than ever now — that YOU want information in ways we haven’t been delivering it to you.
Before I get into that (briefly — more on that too), a big heartfelt “Thank You” from Heather and I for greeting Konan into the world. One day, he’ll look back on the previous blog post and smile 🙂
Back in 1997, when I was marketing a nutrition product — a time way before I had any clue about things like manifestation, conscious living, and peak performance — I wrote:
“In this day and age of instant gratification and vicariousness, people want thrills without risks, wine without alcohol, more money without effort, beer without calories and, yes, optimal health and longevity without a continual (life-time) commitment to nutritional supplementation…”
Looking back at those words now, I shake my head... cause, really, regardless of how much realism I was trying to instill on my readers, I now know I was LIMITING them (and myself) too.
* * * * * * *
Sure, I was teaching from the perspective that you can’t have optimal health, or live to your genetic potential, by just falling off a stump (i.e., that you actually have to “DO” something); however, the concept of “doing more with less” wasn’t even in my awareness then.
It is now!
Over the past several days, I’ve witnessed Heather handle (and accomplish) the seemingly impossible by consciously turning on laser-focused thinking and EXPECTING to GET whatever it is she wants and needs.
It’s a beautiful sight to see. Feeding a baby every 3 hours brings about “less” in an entrepreneur mother’s life, in the way of time that WAS spent on business. Yet, the results haven’t changed. Seeing her dance between editing an audio, calling the Pediatrician, taking care of paperwork, and mentally remembering the next time to wake up Konan for feeding has brought the idea of “instant everything” to the forefront for me.
Just like there’s nothing that says we can’t have wine without alcohol (simply go buy the Fre brand of wine and, voila, your wish is granted), thrills without risks (many ways to experience this — holding Konan in my arms while rocking him in the La-z-Boy comes to mind), there’s nothing that says we can’t have more money without (a lot of) effort.
Over the past year, especially, I’ve witnessed several business partners and marketing friends do just that.
We, as well, have learned to work smarter, not harder, by accessing resources, advice, research and mentoring that has given us the the ability to get more done and deliver more value to more people and make more money with less time and energy.
When you break yourself away from such conditioned beliefs like “anything worth having is worth working for,” and “hard work is what brings home the bacon,” you start to FEEL a few things:
>> There’s never a money problem… only an idea problem. Anything’s possible, in whatever time I want it, if I’m creative enough and my reason for being creative is to add VALUE to somebody.
>> If I replace myself, I can leverage myself. Replacing what I think I know, what I think is possible, and what I think is efficient and effective, comes about by looking, listening, and learning from others with an open mind.
In other words, when you commit yourself to getting the highest and best possible use and effect and result from every effort and action you ever expend, it all manifests in one thing, baaaaaaaby:
Being highly-efficient and experiencing, almost instantly, what you set out to do or have.
In this mode, you’re controlling life!
You’re living how you were meant to live — with joy, purpose, excitement, focus and passion in your life!
This post today is to let you know we’re making a commitment to FOCUS our efforts here (the messages on this blog) by getting to the heart of the matter — shorter, and more frequent posts that cut directly to a resource, contact, interview, or recommended vendor.
Think of what we’re about to start doing here as our “Public Rolodex“…
Fast, down-and-dirty blog posts that offer you meat-and-potatoes insider advice, expert tips, how-to instruction and little-known tools that either we, or people we know, are using to accelerate and enrich our lives.
Some will be no-charge recommendations. Some will cost money. Either way, when you see what we’ll be bringing your way, the VALUE will always EXCEED the price… whether that price is reflected in your time, money, or effort for utilizing the various TOOLS we bring your way.
Tomorrow, Monday, we’ll be starting this with a complimentary 45-minute interview with one our recent SuperManifestor.com Gold Sponsors.
Heather, somehow*, between putting a second coat of paint on the baby’s room, helping me put together the crib, and editing marketing material for the promotion that just ended, squeaked in a compelling one-one-one conversation with Bob Doyle… all this just a few days before her water broke (which will explain her shortness of breath when asking her questions to Bob).
* wait a second, somehow implies “by chance.” Let’s call a spade a spade here: as I’ve been saying:
Life moves, when you move. And you move, more often than not, when you get yourself (your self-defeating habits, your conditioned beliefs, your fixed thinking) out of your own way.
Together, Heather and I have experienced almost rapid-fire productivity, while having fun, by having a genuine interest in TOOLS that can bring about our internal genie, if we’ll just “let go” and believe in the infinite possibilities.
We can’t wait to pass along those tools, more frequently, starting tomorrow….

Great post man!

Great , Makes you think.
Tools are always necessary to complete any project.
Also congratulations on the new baby. I know you will have many grateful moments looking in to his magical face!
What a miracle children are!
Thanks!
Great post Heather and Barry…Thank You.
Also VERY heartfelt congrats on the new bouncing baby “Super Manifestor” Konan. I know first hand the joy that creates (MANY times in fact!!) and the incredible resonance of “Unconditional Love” that emanates just ALL OVER THE place as a result.
For me personally, that’s when I first discovered and had a real sense of what those indescribably powerful words “truly” meant. Amazingly, just when you think it can’t get ANY stronger or more present…it does. The horizon just keeps expanding. How incredible is that???
That’s one of those “intense miracles” that regardless of how many times we might experience it, NEVER becomes old hat although Heather “may” disagree with “part” of that. 🙂 )
Only the best for both of you AND your new “Little Man.”
Congratulations Barry & Heather on meeting your 20 year meditation…Konan.
I wish you all great health and goodness.

I ditto what Ada said. I very much needed to see this.
Blessings, good fortune and my very best wishes to all three of you.
Looking back as the parent of a 37 year old son, trust me when I say…enjoy and savor every moment with Konan while he’s little, time goes by fast. Blink and he will be going into kindergarten, blink again and he will be in high school, blink once again and he will be holding his college diploma as he walks off the stage…yes, it goes by very, VERY fast indeed!
“CONGRATULATION”
Barry and Heather…..what a bundle of joy you have.
Lots of love and smiles.

Congratulations to you both.
Konan will be very blessed in having such committed parents. When you rock him you will move not only Konan but yourself. Rock on Kids.
Love
