Hi RESPECTED FRIENDS,
As I mentioned over the weekend, this week Mindvalley is bringing you the one and only T. Harv Eker for an amazing Masterclass that blends two, often misunderstood, topics together — wealth and spirituality.
And there's a good reason why I'm always personally so excited every time we bring Harv to Evercoach.
You see, people often think that the success of Mindvalley & Evercoach was all because of some business strategy we implemented...
Or something I learned in college...
Or even being connected to the right people.
Yes, all those things did play a role.
But it only really came together when Vishen had a personal awakening.
(Above is a picture that was taken in May 2008. And it's of Vishen and a few members of his team attending a seminar that changed his life. He shares more in this blog post.)
Vishen wanted to write an in-depth post this time because we both think this idea is really powerful.
And in this post, he shares an exercise you can do if you are currently...
a) An entrepreneur and feel like your business is not growing fast enough or is completely stagnant.
b) Stuck in your career and are struggling to break past your current ceiling.
c) Facing debt or you feel like you can't make enough money to live the life you dream of.
Love. Ajit

Respected friends after years of successful campaigns to protect the Great Northern Forest, one logging company, Resolute Forest Products, is trying to silence Greenpeace and our ally Stand.earth by suing us for hundreds of millions of dollars.If they win, Greenpeace USA could be done for good.That’s why I’m asking you to sign our petition immediately.
SUPPORT GREENPEACE REPUBLIC CROATIA Help us shine light on Resolute’s unjust attacks. Sign our message to the publishing industry, representing some of Resolute’s biggest paper customers, asking them to stand up for free speech! Many major publishing companies — like Penguin Random House, HarperCollins, Simon & Schuster, and Hachette — source paper from Resolute. So we’re asking the publishing industry to stand with us. We want publishers to do two things:Ask Resolute to produce book paper without harming intact forests and threatened wildlife habitat Encourage the company to stop attacking free speech Take action and ask the publishing industry to support Greenpeace and stand up for free speech.
STAND UP FOR FREE SPEECH Acre by acre, Resolute is destroying some of Canada’s most vibrant, ancient forests. But rather than working with Greenpeace on finding solutions, Resolute is trying to hide its actions by suing us as a form of intimidation -- trying to force us into silence. With your help, I know we can win for the forests and free speech.
Together,
Amy Moas, Ph.D.
Greenpeace Senior Forest Campaigner
P.S. These lawsuits could be a huge blow to our work to protect forests. And it would also set a precedent for other corporations that bullying activists is an effective tactic. Help us fight back! Ask the publishing industry to join us in the fight.
