Very soon, I will be speaking at the crème de la crème of events, as one of the handpicked Successful, Elite Entrepreneurs Tactics team and I would like to see you there, meet you face to face if I haven’t done so before plus have the chance to sit down and talk with you face to face.

Without any hype or B.S. this truly could be the best event I speak at all year after seeing the star studded line up of the other speakers . . . such as;

Mark Joyner
Joel Comm
Marshall Sylver
Matt Furey
Simon Leung
Mr. ‘Z’.
. . . and myself, plus many more.

At many seminars and events, there is a mystery speaker, usually referred to as Mr. ‘X’.

Due to who this mystery speaker is and the fact the promoter has managed to drag him away from his secret hideaway and come out of ’speaking retirement’ for a one off speaking engagement . . . he is clearly not any old ‘Mr X’ . . . he’s so rare, he deserves to be called ‘Mr. Z’!

What I can reveal to you about Mr. ‘Z’ is this; When he speaks, you can hear a pin drop in the room because everyone hangs on every single word, not wanting to miss even the smallest nugget of pure gold which flows effortlessly from his lips.

He’s like the pied piper of entrepreneurs and someone you don’t want to be kicking yourself for the rest of your life because you passed on the rare chance to see him live.

I know I will be taking notes like crazy.

After looking at the website for the event and knowing what each and every other speaker will be talking on . . . you would be wise to investigate for yourself so that you can make an informed decision.

I can reveal to you, some of the Team of speakers do private consulting . . . and, on average, it costs $5,000 to $10,000 an hour to buy their time and advice, and you would probably have to get in a very long line and wait forever.

In reality, YOU would have more chance of going to the moon. Others NEVER reveal their strategies and business secrets, for any price . . . to anyone. Some teach other subjects, however they have kept their best kept success secrets locked away in ‘Fort Knox’ . . . until now.

If this interests you even slightly, I urge you head on over and get the full story at:

PS. I am very selective as to which events I will put my name to because it’s my reputation on the line. When I was invited to speak at this event, my decision was a no-brainer. Head on and see why.

O.K.  I know it’s really girly, but last night I went out with some gals pals to see the Sex and the City movie.   We had a blast.   The music, the fashion, was great and the story line was much more grown up than the last one.  There were 3 poor guys in the audience – obviously on first dates or dragged there by their mates.  But on the other hand- single guys – I have to say this movie’s audience is the best looking crowd I have seen in a room.  Designer duds –the works!  No sloppy joe’s.  Smart guys will pick that up and attend with friends, guaranteed you will be sitting next to a good looking gal.

My friends and I went out to dinner, enjoyed a drink, and then went to the show.  We looked around the restaurant and saw pods of girls doing exactly the same thing.  It was an amazing sight to see.

What stands out in this movie is the power of friendship – it endures over problems in marriage, difficulties of parenthood, work troubles, everything.  The movie reminds us to enjoy ourselves and not take life too seriously.

If you’re on the fence about it – go!  It’s one of Kim Catrell’s BEST performances – there’s one scene in a marketplace where you’ll know what I mean!

Enjoy the weekend

I have been approached by a few people to who would like to train on either my Joint Venture Program or my Millionaires in Training Program to their own clients or to audiences.

I am considering training and licensing a few people on what I did for my high level clientele.  These people would have a coaching business, plus be able to sell my products for 50% split.   This would be viable for you whether you want to train other speakers, authors, entrepreneurs or large corporations.

If you would be interested, drop me a note of interest and if there are a few great people interested, you’ll be first in line, receive the best price reduction PLUS work with me personally.  I would only give this opportunity to a handful of people per year.

You would have to pay for the training and license.  Please let me know if you are “mildly interested” or “very serious”, and ready to move forward with it.

Thanks!

I’m heading out to Philadelphia in May to a small intimate event where there are only about 80 – 100 people there, and would love to see you there.  It is a small event, however EVERYONE is there to network and do business deals.  Many people were doing deals where they were joining forces and expanding or simply promoting each other and splitting the profits.  At the last event, I met some people who could impact my life in a very profitable way.  
This is not a fancy huge event, just a simple event.  A simple event where you will stand out (as there are less people).
Many of the remarkable things that have Happened around me have come from the power of joint ventures.
 
At Impact San Diego, my good friend, Frank Sousa and Ken McArthur went out to dinner together to celebrate his multi-million dollar sale of his interest in Traffic Geyser which is a powerhouse created by a joint venture between Frank, Mike Koenigs and Rocket Helstrome at jvAlert Live in Philadelphia.
 
But that’s just the tip of the iceberg.  At EVERY jvAlert Live event, I heard incredible stories of joint ventures that have changed lives in so many ways.
 
I know I push hard to make sure that you come to these events.
 
It’s because it’s so important to be there.
 
Here are just a few of the people coming to jvAlert Live Philadelphia!  Thought you’d like to know who is already headed that way!
 
http://learningfolder.net/blog/?p=891  
 
By the way, if you don’t have your hotel room yet, you can reserve it now here:
 
http://jvAlertLive.com/hotel/
 
The hotel overlooks the Delaware River right where they came ashore to found the city of love at Penn’s Landing.
 
And for goodness sake, if you haven’t registered for the event yet, get it done today!

See you soon!

I was so excited because this year my Exclusive Mastermind Group – the Business Olympians received a special gift from me.  I sent each one a pair of the HOTTEST and most coveted Olympic souvenir – the famous red mittens.  It was all over the news that people were lining up at stores around Vancouver, Canada for hours and hours and there were NO MITTENS to be found.

Luckily I have a connection at the Hudson Bay and imported directed mittens for my special group.

Then – I watched Oprah and the Today Show she was wearing the mittens and her audience went NUTS when she revealed she asked Hudsons’ Bay to send her mittens.  Ok, so she copied me.  LOL.

BUT you saw it here first!  Ha Ha!

So I have 1 special pair left!!!!!

If you would like it – write a comment below and we will choose a winner & ship it to you – remember to add in your email address so we can contact you!!

These will be a FABULOUS souvenir for you and by the way – now there is security round the store, a 4 mitten minimum per person AND a 4 Hour line –up wait.

So exciting!!!!

What a day.  I have never been to an event where there was so much excitement and devastation on the same day.

For those of you who have not heard, one of the athletes died during practice of the Luge sport the day of the opening ceremonies.  This sport is dear to my heart as my favorite Luge Man –  Ruben Gonzales, a friend and past client of mine also competes.  Unfortunately Nodar Kumaritashvili, a Georgian slider, died when he flew off his sled going around a corner during practice on the Olympic track.  He was travelling at 88 miles an hour and hit a medal structure beam.

That night during the opening ceremonies all eyes, hearts and minds were on the Georgians, when they entered the area.  No matter what country you were from, you got out of your seat and supported these athletes, who were such a small group, and were now down 1 very good friend and teammate.

All 60,000 people also prayed silently as they honored Nodar with a moment of silence.  I believe Nodar was watching the ceremonies or walking down the great oval alongside of his teammates.  You could certainly feel his spirit and presence.  He will be missed by those who loved him and every one of the 60,000 fans in the audience.  We all felt for him and their teammates.  

Lugemen will tell you their sport is not reckless, they are “engineers” as my friend Ruben Gonzalez says.  Engineers who analyze the track and have the courage of test pilots.

This tragic event has caused many of the fans to appreciate the risks and the heart, the passion and the courage, that all athletes encompass.  Often this is overlooked as we focus on whether they won a medal or not.  How easily we can forget all the work and sacrifice and mental workout they do to even compete and represent us – the bystanders enjoying our hot dogs and festivities.

This also caused some of the athletes to remember that there is more in life than competing, some of them commented that they were retiring and moving on to other goals in life.  For others, you could see it in their faces, the process of overcoming fear and emotions to achieve their goals.  You could see this, as the next day, all the lugemen and woman practiced on the very course that killed their friend and fellow athlete.  Just think about what strength you would have to materialize to take that journey down the track – even to take the first step.

I am in awe.  This year my powerful pack of leaders are called the Business Olympians (www.hartofsuccess.com/circle ).  Today I know that each of us may face or have faced days of devastation or obstacles that we did not foresee, and I hope each of them (and you) really think about those athletes on that track the morning after this tragic accident.  If they could do that – what could you do?  And what did they think about in order to keep going?  What would you be thinking in their shoes? Their skates? Their luge sleds?

What would you have to feel in your heart and think in your mind?  What would you be telling yourself?  And this is all after (I’m sure) a somber sleepless night.

Have you given up – with so much less real adversity – before?  If you have, I hope you use this day as a reminder of what you CAN do in your own life.  We ALL have that power.  Claim your moment!  Show yourself you CAN do this, even if it frightens you.  There is perhaps no stronger inner power than walking calmly and carefully through your fears or facing your own ring of fire.

Now for the celebration….

Hey – I told you it was a wild day.

Here’s how it went…

Security was actually pretty easy if you followed the guidelines of what to bring, very similiar to airport security (I did get my apple chips confiscated).

Then when we found our seats, there was a box attached to it.  This was a fun surprise.

Inside the box (which was shaped like a heptagon) was an audience participation kit.  There was a colored flashlight, an electric candle, a white poncho, a drum set, and a Canadian flag.

In the audience were “helpers” in white sweaters with bright red hats on.  These “helpers” would rehearse with us and then also cue us for our participation.

Here’s what we did:
First we had to assemble all our equipment – get everything ready.  Then we rehearsed the opening countdown that you saw on TV where the lights counted down 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1!  I was seated in the first group – section 10.  So we had to take our drum box, and stand up on cue with our box over our head and yell 10.  Each box was color coded to give a huge affect of the number 10 in the audience on TV.

It was very cool.

There was pressure on us – especially because we were starting.  We didn’t want to be late.  In fact I was laughing as 4 people were seated behind me that came in bit late and were totally stressed (in a funny way) on the pressure to participate.  It was funny seeing people juggle their hot dogs and standing up then sitting on all these cues.  I laughed so hard.

After this countdown we were able to watch the ceremony.  Basically we had about 20 mins between each participation activity.

The ceremony (I thought) was really spectacular.  The lights show was amazing.  I won’t describe the whole event as you would have seen in on TV.  It began to my left with snow falling and a snowboarder entering the Olympic stadium by sliding down a ski jump through the Olympic rings onto the center of the stage.  It was unexpected and made many people next to me (and ok me too) jump.

Then the athletes entered the arena.  It was a parade of nations, everyone entered in alphabetical order with the exception of Greece going first and Canada coming in last.  Korea was split into 2 teams this year (which was different than in 2006) and came in at different times.  And as I mentioned everyone was on their feet in support of Georgia.

The organizers really transformed the arena to look like a snow covered blank canvas from which lights told an ever changing story.  A story of our history, plus highlighting the seasons of Vancouver, Whistler and rest of Canada. This portion was designed to demonstrate how the climate & landscape shaped the Canadian culture.

There was a 20-meter led bear that rose up out of the floor, hundreds of fiddlers and tap dancers, aboriginal dancers welcoming everyone and skiers and snowboarders hanging in mid-air, skiing down a curtain of snow and lights.  The lights turned off and suddenly it seemed as if hundreds of skiers were (rollerblading) over the ice in red & white lights.

My favorite is when it looked as though real whales were swimming across the stadium floor, complete with spurting blow holes.  Everyone cheered! 

What were clouds became trees with a light change.  It was very magical and you never knew what to expect.

And something that made us all laugh was Canadian slam poet Shane Kcyczan recited a poem entitled “We Are More”, which had many on their feet with drums banging in agreement.

One of the ways the audience helped with the transformation was we all had to wear our white ponchos.  This allowed for a unity in form and color throughout the area, and provided a limitless backdrop for the lightshow to continue.

We were guided to blink and twirl our flashlights in unison to create a diamond like sparkle that took over the arena.  We gently waved our lit candles to the melodic sounds of Sarah McLachlan, K.D. Lang, and Jodi Miller.  We beat our drums as the percussionist background to Brian Adams & Nelly Furtado.

We saluted our Canadian athletes, and stars (Donald Sutherland) and much loved Wayne Gretzky – known to us as the greatest Hockey player ever to have lived.  And in true Canadian fashion, he was humbled by the cheers and adoration and took it all in red & white stride.  He said lighting the Olympic cauldron was one of the greatest days of his life. He was joined by NBA star Steve Nash, gold medalist Nancy Greene Raine and speedskater Catriona LeMay Doan.  There was a slight hitch as one of the columns would not come up. But in the end it was no big deal.

All in all this spectacular ceremony united our country and we were able to take pride in our spirit, beliefs and culture.  Everyone was smiling, and fans from every country went to celebrate over a beer together.  Isn’t that the way we should always be with our competitors?  Sounds good to me.

It was an amazing event.  I took LOTS of photos – so go here to check them out: http://www.flickr.com/photos/stefaniehartman  and add your comments please.  I am looking forward to hearing your thoughts –please post below.

Thank you!

So…What’s next?

Well every night there are fireworks right above my house – it is seriously freaking out my dog, but I hope you all enjoy it.

There are TONS of ceremonies and music concerts and all kinds of slow to fast paced entertainment going on all around the city.  You can take a quiet stroll on Granville street downtown and cuddle with your date and soak in the lanterns from around the world – a romantic idea or go ice-skating downtown and sip a cocoa or take in a rock concert around town.

Oh – and of course the games!!!!

On Friday I attended the Olympic Opening Ceremonies and as  a good Canadian I went to the Bay ahead of time and bought some Olympic T-shirts & fleece jackets – plus the customary (and hard to find) Fuzzy red official Torch Relay mittens!  I was prepared to go into the stadium in nice jeans and my gear.

But then I was told I was attending an Olympic business luncheon before and had to dress Business Casual.  I was also told the limo was cancelled as the streets were shut down so I had to somehow combine business casual, with Olympic Gear, with shoes that I could walk 5 or 6 blocks in –oh and it will likely be raining.

Ok, that’s a tall order.  So what do you think?  Did I pull it off?
