A Friend Has Passed On

Fran Cannon, I, and a few others involved with Cannon Training & Development have been involved with a worldwide entrepreneurial networking and business education group, Income Builders International. A local friend of ours who we met through IBI, Rachel Best, left us at noon on the 28th of March.

I just heard from Mary Carrillo that she, Fran, and others attended a traditional Jewish funeral at El Camino Memorial Park in San Diego at noon today.

Rachel was the only person over five years ago to notice that a life insurance career was not a good fit for me. Certainly she was the only one who said, "I don't get you and life insurance." Rachel cared about everyone reaching their potential and achieving their best life. She believed in God and she believed in people and their ability to improve and to love each other by helping each other.

Rachel created the Elka Best Foundation to help cancer patients receive distress-free care. Mary Carrillo just informed me that one of the big hospitals in Baltimore is using these kinder, gentler chemotherapy regimens.

You can hear recorded messages by Rachel Best and others about IPT LowDose™ Chemotherapy or Insulin Potentiation Therapy by clicking this URL:

The next paragraph is a direct excerpt from an email I received about Rachel.

Rachel has touched so many of us in so many remarkable ways. In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to The Elka Best Foundation in Rachel’s memory. If you are moved to make a pledge to The Foundation of funding or time, we know Rachel will be most honored to be remembered in that manner and to keep the momentum of The Foundation building. http://www.elkabest.org or contribute directly at https://www.registrationfactory.com/v3/?EventUUID=8FA20CE2

Rachel, we will miss you.

Great American Business Owner Starts In Less One Hour

I'm going on the SBPC Men's Retreat so Mary will share her thoughts and feelings about the progress of the seminar this weekend. Great stuff. Powerful lessons. Be part of the next Great American Business Owner seminar. Grow your business and yourself!

Your Life Will Be What You Make Of It - Max Steingart

In addition to the resources you can find to the left, I have another blog which is mostly motivational quotes - MOTIVATIONALblog.blogspot.com. Today is the third day in row that you can search MSN.com for the term - Motivational - and my blog comes up #1 [after the sponsored/advertised sites]. I think that's pretty cool! Here's what a typical post looks like on that blog:


MOTIVATIONAL MOTIVATIONAL - MOTIVATIONALblog.blogspot.com

YOUR LIFE WILL BE WHAT YOU MAKE OF IT

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The golden opportunity you are seeking lies within you.
It's not in your environment.
It's not in luck or chance,
or in the help of others.
It's all in you.

There are opportunities all around you.
If the door of opportunity appears closed,
you must knock on it and keep knocking on it until it opens.

You must become an opener of doors.
You can develop your opportunities
by applying persistence and tenacity to your possibilities.

Success doesn't come to you.
You must go to success.

What Kat Alessi Says About The Great American Business Owner Seminar

Ready to move to the next level in your business/career?

Or are you already moving to the next level with Cannon Training's Seminars? Let me know the powerful stuff that's happening for you. Here's what one recent attendee says...


The Great American Business Owner's Seminar was exactly what I needed at this time in my life. Eight weeks ago I was feeling stuck in my life. I started using tools I had learned in the Hi-Five, Advanced & Gem Seminars from 1999 and significantly turned my life around in 6 weeks. Having a new seminar that directly related to my new focus in business was a blessing.

Not only was being back in the energy of the room and other participants re-invigorating, there were new tools and insights designed to help me get my brand new business off the ground and soaring into new heights rapidly.

Fran Cannon's background certainly made a difference in the quality of business centered lessons taught this weekend, yet the personal growth work was still there. Having knowledge about business isn't effective without the internal conviction that you can overcome your limiting beliefs and go for it.

I'll be there for the next 2 phases of this seminar, I wouldn't miss this chance to to be coached, supported and challenged to go forward with concrete goals, tools and team members behind me all the way. I'll see you there.

The Dance of Business Success!

Not only can they dance...We went to Chili's Sunday night and about 90% of the graduates enjoyed conversation and great food before starting a brand new week with a brand new attitude!

I've already had some helpful conversations with graduates of The Great American Business Owner Seminar and I'm sure our networking will be more and more powerful and profitable. There's room for coaches to participate as so many business owners come to understand the necessity of being held accountable to someone who truly "gets" business and life.

---
Graduates, here are some of the songs we played. I'll include more titles in future posts. Re-visit the energy every time you press play!

I heard a few found this dance challenging:

Gettin' Jiggy Wit It - Will Smith


Step It Up - Stereo MC's
The Loco-Motion - Kylie Minogue
YMCA - The Village People
Love Train - The O'Jays

Don't forget these:

I Believe I Can Fly - R. Kelly
Take It To The Limit - The Eagles

Cannon Training's GABO - Bedtime - Day 2

Powerful day! Powerful, moving lessons. Beautiful, intelligent, creative people. They can "get jiggy with it" and "take it to the limit" and now we know - they can dance!

Cannon Training's GABO - Beginning - Day 2

I'm enjoying being "in the room" again. I'm the music guy and it's great working with Jody, Louis, Mary and Fran.

There's some eye-opening stuff for these business owners when they really see that this business seminar is about more than business. Powerful lessons illustrate how much of their success is about who they are and whether or not they are open to change on a personal and professional level. Are they truly willing to do whatever it takes even if that means getting beyond generalizations and platitudes?

What exactly does "whatever it takes" mean for them and can they dance?

Great American Business Owner Starts Tomorrow

I just got off the phone with Fran Cannon and we expect attendance in the thirties for the first Great American Business Owner Seminar starting March 3. Less than 24 hours to go. Pretty exciting stuff in my experience.

I found this quote at Zig Ziglar's site:

It has often been said the line which separates winning from losing is as fine as a razor's edge--and it is.
