Don't Be a Predator's Victim: Alert the Kids!

Photo courtesy of Photos8.com
Do You Care About the Well-being and Safety of Kids? Teach them Web Safety!

Hello, Everyone! After watching and listening to this video, I knew I wanted to share it with you and I'm so grateful that I can because it's embeddable. This video is from Dr. Mike Thomson, an accomplished, talented, and internationally-admired Speaker, Author, Therapist, Consultant, Coach, Educator, and University Professor. Also, he is President of two very successful companies, It’s All About Character and Thomson ETC., Inc. Dr. Mike, as he's known, is on a mission to help people realize their/our true potential as a parent, teacher, coach, employee, entrepreneur or business owner.

In this video he shares crucial-to-know information, that should be shared with every grandparent, parent, relative and everyone that cares about the safety of:
  • their grand-children,
  • children,
  • pre-teen relatives
  • and teen-aged relatives,
  • as well as other people's pre-teens and teen-agers
Thanks to Dr. Thomson's details in this video, I now know more of the lingo that online-predators are using to lure kids into danger, destruction, sexual attacks / sexual violence / sexual degradation / child-trafficking / human-trafficking and possibly death.

Dr. Thomson is enlightening us with this information and I'm sharing it in order to spread the knowledge. Predators harm others (in all the deviant ways that they do), simply to satisfy their warped desires and this is evil, malicious and wrong; it's criminal! After you view this video share the information and, together, let's do all we can to prevent these predators from gaining access to any child, of any age, everywhere!

Are You a 'Secretariat'? You Might Be!

Secretariat
"...the last shall be first,
and the first last ..."
Matthew 20:16
Achieving Like Secretariat

Hello, Everyone!  By now, many of you have seen the latest movie about the great racing horse named 'Secretariat'.  As I watched some of the online videos of those Triple Crown races, I was amazed and I became a fan of Secretariat, even though he is long gone.  Also, immediately, I saw a parallel of him being last and therefore, seemingly a 'loser' and that of people who have yet to accomplish basic goals and heart's desires such as ownership of their own homes/dream houses, career success, own successful business(es), success with their talents and such, seemingly being 'losers' in life.  Afterall, being last is not the position the winner is in. 

Just looking at the current, initial position of the horses when a horse race starts, it appears that the one that sprints ahead and accomplishes the position of 'first' early on in the race, will be the winner.  The same is true of people and the time-frame we achieve goals and heart's desires in.  It seems like those that achieve early on in life are the ultimate winners.  And, it seems like those of us that are late to start will not achieve comparable levels of achievement because of the time factor ... because they/we started last.  Well, let Secretariat's example at the 1973 Belmont Stakes be a visual example of what can happen with your achievement of your own success, prosperity, wholeness: your Divine heart's desires for each aspect of your life.  Let his victory at the 1973 Belmont Stakes, which you'll see in these videos (a playlist of 9), be an example of the degree of acceleration you can experience in accomplishing your goals & heart's desires.

In 'Secretariat Belmont Stakes 73' and 'Extended Post Race Coverage' you'll see that Secretariat & Sham are almost neck and neck. Then, Secretariat puts double-digit lengths between himself and Sham and wins!  He surpasses all those horses that were ahead of him and does so with supernatural speed and acceleration.  In these videos you'll hear and/or see that Secretariat would be absolute last horse at the start of the race. Being last was intentional positioning.  I read an article which stated Secretariat began to rest his rump against the rear gate of the stall during these races because when he first began racing the other horses would kick back their legs onto him to prevent him from getting ahead.  Many of you have encountered a similar type of treatment from people you know of, including family members.  Those people have tried to hinder your achievements or even prevent them altogether.  They tried to prevent you from winning at achieving success, prosperity, wholeness: your Divine heart's desires.  There are stories in the Holy Bible of people this type of treatment happened to including Joseph, the son of Israel (Jacob) and Rachel.  You can read Joseph's story in Genesis 37, 39-50 NIV.

Secretariat's Triple Crown achievements and Joseph's achievements are examples of how GOD, {the Creator of humankind, the Earth, Heaven and everything in them (the whole Universe)}, will help you catch up in the achievement of goals and heart's desires.  He will cause you to surpass, in achievements, those that tried to hinder and/or stop you.  And, He will propel you so far ahead so efficiently that in comparison, they’re left far behind you like Secretariat did with the other horses!  Secretariat kept on going, efficiently, 30+ lengths ahead of the other horses that were, at one time, all ahead of him! 

GOD mentions the topic of 'last' and 'first' in His Holy Bible.  Read some of His words, below,  about those that are last, and those that are first:

"But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first." ~ Matthew 19:30
"So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen." ~ Matthew 20:16
But many that are first shall be last; and the last first. ~ Mark 10:31
And, behold, there are last which shall be first, and there are first which shall be last. ~ Luke 13:30


I shared all of this post's content to encourage those that are 'last' to achieve their GOD-given goals & heart's desires.  Consider the possibility that you could be a 'Secretariat', a great, victorious, super-achiever 'last' that becomes 'first'.  You might be the last in your family to achieve anything with your talents, and yet the first to write a #1 Best Seller, the first to win an Emmy, the first to be a CEO, and so on! Go, you 'Secretariats', GO!



My gratitude is extended to the YouTubers that shared these videos with us, by making the embeddable; I thank each of you!





Below, are a few of the books available at Amazon.com about Secretariat

Where Do Miracles You Desire, Begin?


Desired Miracles!

Good day, Everyone! I received a letter, recently, with a helpful paragraph in it which states something I thought you'd find helpful, too. This is the paragraph I'm 'speaking' of:





"Miracles begin in the soil of the images created in your mind. God

plants the seed image, and your faith transforms the seed into a vision of the

miracle you desire. Jesus said, "... ... Seek, and ye shall find ..."

meaning "pursue, and you will possess" (St. Matther 7:7) . Go for it, in

your faith
, and let God make a way for you.

You must walk through it." ~ SMC

Myra's $2-Million Heart's Desire Came True!

HGTV Home Design & Remodeling SuiteMyra Lewis' Heart's Desires Are Coming True!

Hello, Everyone! Here's another wonderful, inspirational story of what happens when you have a heart's desire that you affirm! In the video playlist featured below, a 60-something years-of-age lady, named Myra Lewis, experienced a heart's desire come true this year that manifested as a $2-million-plus grand-prize from the HGTV Dream Give-away!

As I watched Myra Lewis' cry tears of elation for this manifested blessing, I cried joy-tears, too; I felt gratitude for this manifestation/actualization of a blessing that she needed and desired, too!

As you will see I've added a playlist of Myra's HGTV Dream Home Give-away experience, and of the actual HGTV Dream Home that she's won!  I'm grateful that HGTV made these videos embeddable and therefore, shareable with you all. I've arranged the videos in this playlist in an order I appreciate and think you might appreciate, too.

Specifically, in this playlist you can see Myra Lewis receive the news (on camera) from host Jamie Durie, of her winning the 2010 HGTV Dream Home, along with a new, 2010 GMC Terrain automobile and $500,000! You'll hear her inspiring story about how Hurricane-Katrina affected her home and retirement. You'll hear about her only child's victories over autism, including his educational and artistic achievements. Then, you'll see the gorgeous dream house Myra Lewis deeply desired to win (in her heart  and affirmed, well before she won it)! In the tours you'll see the:
  • Location
  • Exterior
  • Interior
    • Entry Hallway
    • Kitchen
    • Dining Room
    • Master Bedroom
    • Master Bathroom
    • Kid's Bedroom
    • Guest Bedroom
    • Great Room
    • Casita
    • Home Office
    • Home Theater
I am confident that you'll find Myra Lewis' heart's-desire-come-true story, inspirational! Right now, I'm reminding you that Our Creator has stated in His Word (Bible) that He wants us to have the desire's of our heart! There's divine power in a heart's desire from Him! Are you affirming your heart's desires, yet? 2010 isn't over, yet! You may be in line for a quantum leap of faith (see, 'Perry's Heart's Desires Are Coming True! Hear How!') orchestrated by our Creator, this year!

Oh yes, I almost forgot to tell you that the last video features the location for HGTV's 2011 Dream Home! Is it your heart's desire to live there? Someone's going to win it, could be you!

Lauretta's Heart's Desires Came True! She Received Far More Than $13.50!

Lauretta Marie Pierce's Heart's Desires Came True!

Hello, Everyone! Today's post features Lauretta Marie Pierce's amazing life story.You may already know of her as the 'Cookie Lady', founder of Covenant Cookies. However, long before she experienced this heart's desire, of several, she was married to an abusive man and spent many year's experiencing domestic violence in her first marriage. During her first marriage, her first husband attempted to murder her. During his attempt to murder her he severely ripped off a portion of her face. Consequently, she was left disfigured and was paralyzed for a year. Also, as a consequence of the violence, she had suicidal thoughts and actually attempted suicide. Later, she re-married thinking this was her last chance at marriage because of her disfigurement. However, that marriage didn't work out and the second husband left her. When the second husband left her, he did so at a time when her income was only $13.50 per hour, or as she describes it, "Two fives, three ones and two quarters".

To overcome her circumstances, she sought help from our Creator, who is the 'Lord' we Christians speak of. He responded in miraculous ways and provided deeply needed and desired financial provision for her (faster than the time-frame she chose) which she used to aide her family and a friend, in addition to herself (a 'win-win-win').

Among other trials Lauretta Pierce experienced are:
  • Electricity was disconnected from her home for four months, before she lost her home
  • Her daughter went blind from a brain tumor
  • Her daughter was dropped from her insurance plan
  • They lost their home; their belongings were placed out on the street
  • She lost her car (ended up with a 1991 Ford Explorer with no heat, that she was grateful to have)
  • Got fired from her job
Her victories over these trials are credited to the fact that she's experienced our Creator, God, as a provider, a healer, the giver of a multi-million dollar business idea through a thought and dreams, as well as experiencing His faithfulness and favor! 

This lady has experienced many trials, and overcome them victoriously with our Creator's help. I love it when she says, "He can do that. He can do anything for me. He loves me. He can do anything.", as she speaks of what God has helped her with. He love's all of us, and He wants each of us to have the divine heart's desires. Let her awesome prayer, at the end of the third video, be for you as well because He loves you, too! Ask Him to help you achieve those divine, 'win-win-win' heart's desires. He will. I know, first-hand, that He will !

Perry's Heart's Desires Are Coming True! Hear How!

Shane Perry's Heart's Desires Are Coming True!


Hello, Everyone! In the following videos Speaker, Shane Perry shares how he began to experience his heart's desires for his life after he and his wife experienced the following trials (which many people are experiencing right now, or will experience at some time):

  • He and his wife lost everything they owned
  • His service came to a halt
  • He was financially 'broke'
  • His wife was pregnant with their first child
  • They were virtually home-less and
  • They had to share the house of a parent/in-law, for awhile

Additionally, in the videos Perry dynamically shares:
  • the principles of vision (dreams/goals/heart's desires)
  • the purpose of vision 
  • the power of vision (what happens when a person can see something greater than where they are)
  • that life has a way of beating your dreams out of you
  • what he describes as a quantum leap of faith (rapid forward movement/a leap forward when God does your vision ahead of a time-frame that you've chosen)
  • the significance of praise for where you're going (praise for manifestation/actualization/achievement of the vison/dream/goal/heart's desire before it materializes); doing dancing/celebratory movements of gratitude for where you're going
  • the kind of quantum leap he's experienced, recently
  • Albert Einstein's statement about what thoughts do
  • that our problems are not greater than our Creator's vision/dream for our lives 
Perry details that a person can envision/dream the highest dream of goals/heart's desires that they would like to achieve, if there were no limitations. As he likes to say, "The sky is NOT the limit!" Also, he details:
  • Write your 'no-limitations' visions/dreams/goals/heart's desires down (make them bigger than merely self-serving ones; 'win-win-win' ones)
  • Create and speak a positive, daily affirmation about each of your major visions/dreams/goals/heart's desires
    the term 'affirmation' is from the Latin 'affirmāre' [ which is the present active infinitive of 'affirmō' ] : ad + firmāre, to strengthen (from firmus, strong)
I present (something) as fixed, firm, or true; affirm, assert, maintain.
  • With each affirmation for each major goal, write a one-page business plan; make a plan-of-action for you to do to achieve them.
  • Make a mission statement for each major goal
  • Praise now /present-tense for the manifestation of your visions/dreams/goals/heart's desires, while you are waiting in expectation  and working your plan-of-action for them to manifest. 
I find Perry's story very helfpful, because several year's ago I began thinking that quantum leaps (as I defined them: receiveng several goal manifestations simultaneously, that advanced me (and consequently others)  forward in one day, one week or one month) were possible for me, and his story outlines a way, with steps to take, to experience quantum leaps of faith. I imagine that his story and details will be quite helpful to many of you, too, that would benefit from one or more of our Creator's (God's) divine quantum leaps of faith. Watch, listen and learn. Then, start doing!

Successfully Embrace the Struggles You Face: Follow Zig Ziglar's Example

You Can Embrace the Struggles You Face: Follow Zig Ziglar's Example

Embrace the Struggle: Living Life on Life's Terms
'Embrace the Struggle'
by Zig Ziglar &
Julie Ziglar Norman

Hello, Everyone!

Today's post features a video from Embrace the Struggle site about an experience Zig Ziglar went through, using principles he's been teaching others for year, to overcome successfully.  He and his daughter, Julie Ziglar Norman co-authored a book with the same title, 'Embrace the Struggle: Living Life on Life's Terms' which tells Zig's story.  Among other things that Zig Ziglar is famous for are his positivity quotes, and he practices what he preaches/teaches to others to achieve, succeed, survive and thrive, the right way!

Specifically, the book features:  One of the leading stars in the "positive thinking" movement, Zig Ziglar, who has made a career out of telling people how to have a positive attitude, no matter what their circumstances are.  When a fall down a stairway onto a marble floor (in March 2007) leaves Zig with a head injury, he is challenged with how to put the principles he's been speaking to others about into practice for himself.  Zig Ziglar's willingness to be transparent got him writing and speaking again with a renewed energy, before audiences (in the tens of thousands) to show that life on life's terms is still well worth living.  This book, 'Embrace the Struggle' affirms the validity of the principles Zig has held true his entire life and includes not only his account of living positively through difficult circumstances, it includes heart-warming stories of real people who encouraged him with how they put into practice these vital principles he's taught, as well.




As we go through the challenges that we are/everyone is facing aroung the world, now, we may need encouragement to not give up and know that we can succeed in spite of them.  Know that when life circumstances seem like they are trying to beat you up and destroy you, you do not have to give up, despair and let them win!  If you need an example, let Zig Ziglar's life example encourage and inspire you, as well as the stories of those that have already been encouraged and inspired by Zig's life of positivity lessons. 


Below are editorial reviews of this book to give you an idea of the impact of its contents on other people.


" "For decades Zig Ziglar has been a champion of positive thinking. On the sixty-ninth anniversary of his twenty-first birthday, he declared he was 'refiring' rather than retiring. And despite a brain injury that's left him with short-term memory loss, he's still fired up. Anyone facing tough circumstances will find comfort and inspiration in Zig's encouraging message." -- Ken Blanchard, coauthor, The One Minute Manager® and Lead Like Jesus


"Zig Ziglar's Embrace the Struggle, written with his daughter Julie, is timely reading for me. As my wife and I grow older we know we will have to leave our home, where we have lived for over fifty years. But with Zig's guidance we can Embrace our Struggle with energy and with hope." -- John Sherrill, roving editor, Guideposts magazine


"My mood-swing patients who listen to Ziglar the most do the best. Embrace the Struggle is for everyone who faces challenges, whether medical or from life's stressors. Facing an unpleasant reality with a positive attitude can make all the difference. Zig explains his highly successful approach to traumatic brain injury with courage, common sense, and his usual humor." -- Leland M. Heller, MD


"Zig Ziglar understands life including its struggles and setbacks. If you want to live an abundant life by embracing all that God gives -- read this book written by one of the greatest Christians I've ever known." -- Jack Graham, pastor, Prestonwood Baptist Church


"Zig has one more valuable lesson to teach each of us. Living in the moment, right now, with the people you love and for a cause you believe in -- this is what matters. He is an inspiration and a national treasure, and each of us is better off because Zig Ziglar cares about making the world a better place." -- Seth Godin, author, Tribes " ~ Amazon.com


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


“You are who you are and what you are because of what has gone into your mind.
You can change who you are and what you are by changing what goes into your mind.”
~ Zig Ziglar

"When you do the right things in the right way,
you have nothing to lose because you have nothing to fear." ~ Zig Ziglar

"You can have everything in life you want if you will
just help enough other people get what they want." ~ Zig Ziglar

More SEO for 'Heart's Desires Are Coming True, Globally!'

Photo courtesy of Photo8.com
Updating the Heart's Desires Come True Template

Hello, Everyone! I'm still excited about sharing more of your content in the remaining months of 2010! So, I'm updating this template's sidebars so space is utilized even more efficiently, and consequently, more beautifully. My long-held goal is to reduce the height of the home-page, yet retain the information I'm sharing in a more attractive, space-efficient manner. Therefore, soon you will see tabs in the right, center and left sidebars. The information that is contained in individual sections/widgets will go into those tabbed sections. In the interim, you'll see some list of links in drop-down menus in order to reduce the height of the sidebar(s). Also, I've coded some information to only be visible off the home-page/on the post page(s). One of the main results of these changes is that your content will 'stand-out' even more when it is featured in my posts.

Fortunately, as I follow you all on Twitter I add shortcuts/your links to my pc desktop file folders so that I can find your content when I'm scheduling post, again.

15 Interesting Billionaires Age 77 to 99!!

Think Like a Billionaire, Become a BillionaireBillionaires: Interesting, Enlightening Facts About Super-wealthy Women and Men

Hello, Everyone! Today's post features a Business Insider story about fifteen interesting billionaires, with enlightening details we** should pay attention to and learn from. As I read the story, I noticed recurring themes for many of these billionaires are:
  • their generosity/philanthropy/foundations
  • they have children and a spouse to share it with
  • they are business owners
  • they've lived a long-time to enjoy their wealth:
    • are affluent Senior-citizens
    • have maintained being independently-wealthy deep into their 'Golden Years'
    • are still brainy, vital, active and beneficent beyond age 50, 60, 70, 80 and 90
  • some or each of their children are prepared to operate an aspect of their business(es)
  • their children and other heirs are givers/philanthropists, as well
Two of my favorite, enlightening excerpts from this story are:
  1. "When WWII ended and Albert Gubay, the 82-year-old supermarket billionaire who founded Kwik Save, was a candy vendor with 80 pounds to his name, he made a deal. "I made a pact with God: Make me a millionaire — and you can have half of my money," he said. Now he's keeping good on his promise to hand over half of his fortune to the Catholic Church by placing his business (worth an estimated $690 million) in God's hands. When he dies, half of the money will go to causes identified by the Catholic Church, while the fate of the other half will be decided by the trustees of his philanthropic foundation." 
  2. "Hillman and his wife have four kids -- two who live in Pittsburg, and two who don't -- and various grandchildren. He has arranged for each off his descendants to have his own rich foundation and free reign on how to spend it."  ~ Business Insider

** we = those that aspire to manifest super-wealth / become super-wealthy / become millionaires & billionaires
