The Big Announcement You Have Been Waiting For is Here:
A personal message from Dov that changes everything.
It’s just 6 and half minutes, please watch it all…because it’s all important

Watch it NOW, and find out how this impacts you.

The U.S. is experiencing its second warmest winter in recorded history… but it’s not just the U.S. The rest of the world has been experiencing  more extreme weather conditions as well.

Consider for a moment that the forests that give you, me, and our planet breathable air are disappearing at an estimated rate of 36 football field per minute. The Pacific Ocean pollution from what’s known as “Garbage Island“, a floating island of plastic estimated to be twice the size of Texas,  is killing ocean life through plastic and chemical reactions.

Look, I know that you and I recycle, and maybe even compose, but are we really making any significant difference?

The question becomes:

Is our pursuit of The American Dream Creating the Ecological Crisis

Have we failed to notice the connection between capitalism and the ecological crisis?

Let’s face it, we all know that for most folks, the more we make, the more we spend. However, when we spend our next level of wealth on consumer goods, we are, in fact, adding to the massive problems we are seeing with the ecology of the planet, not least of which is climate change.

So is it time for a radical change?

By that I mean a change that many Americans may even see as anti-American?

Chris Williams - Ecology and Socialism: Solutions to Capitalist Ecological Crisis

Professor Chris Wilson in his latest book Ecology and Socialism: Solutions to Capitalist Ecological Crisis, offers what many would consider a rather radical solution to dealing with what he and so many others believe is nothing short of an ecological disaster.

In the February 9th 2012 episode of the new and improved Accidental Guru Radio Show, I  (Dov Baron) will challenge professor Wilson to show us what it will really take to turn this ecological crisis around.

We will take a look at whether President Obama came through on any of his presidential promises regarding climate change. We’ll discuss the question “Is  party policy around everything, but particularly the environment, is set by the elected officials we the people put there or are are policies actually set by big corporations who are somehow the puppeteers of the Senate, Congress and even the White House? We’ll even look at  the impact or impotence of “the occupy movement.”

Make sure you tune in Thursdays @ 10:00 AM (PT) 1:00 PM (EST)

I look forward to sharing this journey with you… By the way, if you found this message valuable, feel free to send this to your friends.

Of course not every morning felt this bad… just the majority of them.

Slavery may seem like a thing from our history books. However, so many people’s day starts out feeling like they are slaves of the economic times.

Are you thinking and feeling like a slave…. or a Freedom Fighter?

A slave has given up and given in. A slave tells themselves (and often others) there’s no room for dreams, only obligations. Each day the slave dies a little as that authentic spark of creativity and expression is stifled by the blanket of repression.

Break the Chains of Financial Slavery

The bottom line is simple. Everything in the universe is evolving and expanding and you are part of this universe, which means you must expand and grow. It has always been this way – always will be that way.

Of course, there will always be those who resist change, and that includes those losing the job they hate. The ego-mind wants to keep things the same because then you will feel safe. However, too much safety numbs your life and that kind of safety creates soul crushing slavery. As you probably know; It sucks the marrow from the soul of your being.

The Good News is: There is a Genius Within YOU!

What you may never have considered is that there is brilliance, and even genius within you. However, like that road accident you almost had, it’s in your blind spot!

What is your “Genius Blind Spot”?

Your Genius Blind Spot is the part of you where real genius lurks. However, there’s a good chance that either you ignore it, don’t recognize it, or completely take it for granted.

Tapping into your Genius Blind Spot can result in amazing new cash flows and abundance beyond your wildest imagining…  It’s time to stop taking your brilliance for granted.

The secret to creating lasting success and wealth is all about you finding and recognizing something I will refer to as your “Unique Value Set”. Your Unique Value Set is the part of you that is worth way more than any amount of dollars per hour.

It’s the part of you that when you discover it will allow you to see opportunities that you would have previously been completely blind to. It’s the part of you that is already super qualified and doesn’t need another degree or certification in order to tap into an abundant flow of cash when you need it.

I know that you may have many false ideas and myths about money, wealth, and your access to it. However, what you may want to consider is this:

“What you know about money and success you’ve likely learned from those who did not have enough of it. Doesn’t it make sense to check with those who do have it, to see if what you believe is actually true?” ~ Dõv Baron…

Clearly, in today’s economic climate, it is of vast importance for you to discover keys and unlock the potential within you that you may never have known was there. Fairly obviously, the focus of our Authentic Wealth Mastery live event is about money/wealth/abundance, how it works, and how you can have more of it.

I will be working with you throughout Authentic Wealth Mastery shining light on your Blind Genius Spots and revealing your Unique Value Sets. And by the last day, you will be ready to set up as a leader in your chosen field.

Now you get to decide; Slave or Freedom Fighter?

Of course the question is: How badly do you want it? And are you interested or committed? Because despite what you get told by the media, You Are In Control of Your Destiny.

This is a New Economy… and You need to be New to make it work for you!

NOW, is the time for you to experience a real breakthrough in your financial situation…This is your opportunity… take it!

Come discover for yourself, create a strategy and a plan that will get you from where you are financially to where you want to be. Come be with people just like you, from all over the world who share one common belief: They know that they have something magnificent to offer even if they don’t know what it is yet and they demand to live from that place!

P.P.S. The Event Will Take Place In Vancouver, Canada (Just across the Border from Seattle) Take a look at this stunning city

A tsunami of fear came crushing down on the global economy and jobs disappeared under the surge. Homes were foreclosed. Banks went under and long established old money companies went bankrupt or needed the government to bail them out.

Was it all over? Would business recover? Was this some kind of an apocalyptic warning that the end was near? These were questions spoken about on the news, late night talk shows and in living rooms around the world.

A New Beginning

It’s  just a few short years now since it was made official that we were in a global recession. Although bankruptcies were up by an unprecedented 34.6 percent over the first quarter of 2009, and even though many today are still buried under the debt and devastation brought on by over lending, over borrowing and over spending, and the general infestation of greed, there is a subtle but growing sense of hope that is beginning to return.

This hope is not for things to return to the way they were, although there are many who would want it that way…

No, this blossoming hope seems to be of growing a new and “healthy economy,” based more on collaboration than direct and adversarial completion.

The world and its economics have changed and I don’t believe it can ever be the same.

“Those who go into business to make money serve a cruel master, and rarely get anything else. Those who go into business to be of service feed not only their bodies but also their souls.” ~ Dõv Baron

The belief in a stable job has buckled at the knees. The corporate ladder has been pushed over. The result is that many people are less willing to be dependent on some outside force for their financial certainty, and I believe that ultimately this is and will be seen as a good thing.

In many ways, it is that quiet rumbling within the middle class mind that has and will continue to catalyze the “the new economy” becoming a reality.

Yes, the economy has changed. However, the opportunity to live the life of your dreams did not die with the announcement of a recession.

There have been many recessions, in fact 14 since the “Great Depression” of 1929 and although people thought some of them were going to be financially fatal, in the long run that was never an actuality.

In this new economy we will have to do things differently, we will have to tap into resources that we have ignored and or taken for granted. These are not just the resources of the world but the resources of the self.  Everything we do at Baron Master is dedicated to you discovering how you can not only survive but flourish by tapping into what you have that no one else has—even if you don’t know what that is—yet.

Think back to Boxing day 2004: It has taken time for the people of Indonesia to recover from the tsunami that devastated part of that country. It will take the people of Japan some time to recover from the devastation of the earthquake and tsunami of 2011.

And it will take some time for the world to recover from the financial tsunami that came crashing down in 2009. However, what I know about human beings is that in times of trouble we find a way to come together. We find away to be there for each other. And we find a way to not only come back but to come back better and stronger than we were before.

So my call out to you is: Let’s use these seeming endings as new beginnings through our creating a tsunami of hope.

Be a leader have the courage to NOT do what others make okay, but rather, step into excellence?

Come to the edge, let’s fly!

Claim Your Competitive Edge

Live with courage,

P.S. If you enjoyed this article, please feel free to comment, like and share it with your friends. It is an excerpt  from my Bestselling book: “Don’t Read This…Unless You Want More Money”

P.P.S. If you really want to fly, step into your leadership and take a look here http://CYCEdge.com/ Claim Your Competitive Edge is going to take place this weekend, March 18th – 20th, and we have very few seats available at subscriber’s special offer, this is where you will get the opportunity to stand dynamically in your magnificent self and shine like the diamond you truly are!

That being said: I am also aware that we all have our own lives and a set of priorities that go along with those lives. It is for that reason that it is easy for us to turn off the news and allow ourselves to forget that our brothers and sisters in Japan need our center.

I would like to make a request of you for all of our brother and sisters in Japan. Throughout the day if you would please just take a minute or two to center yourself and deeply feel and repeat the Japanese words: “Heiwa”, pronounced hay-wa, and the word “Chiyu”.

Heiwa is Peace,

Chiyu is Healing.

As you center on these words focus NOT on the devastation, but rather focus on people assisting each other, building bonds, returning to happy healthy living being in a place of peace.

To assist you in doing this, particularly if you feel kind of disconnected from something that may be taking place a long way from your own personal reality…

May I suggest that you think of someone you know, knew of have heard of in some way who is Japanese someone you could have caring for. Failing that center your heart first on beautiful Japanese children playing together.

And as you hold these images, softly, deeply repeat “Heiwa”, and “Chiyu” (Peace and healing).

As much as the ego-mind tells us we are alone and separate, I believe that we have all had at least one moment of knowing the truth, whether in a dream, or through some conscious or unconscious act… Science is only now embracing what mystics have proclaimed for millennia; WE ARE ALL CONNECTED!

Thank you for taking the time to read this. If you feel that this is an important message, please send this to everyone you know. Even the busiest of us can spare a minute or two.

Live with courage and compassion,

P.S. Again, if you feel this article is important, please feel free to comment, like and share it with your friends.

Embracing The Freak for Fun and Profit!

It wasn’t until my thirties that I realized that being called a “freak”, “weirdo”, or “strange” were compliments. These were in fact clear messages that I was not like the people around me… (and thank heavens for that)

Richard Bandler said; “Nothing has any meaning but the meaning we give it.”

There was a time when I had given these labels a meaning that I was different and by virtue of that, not lovable. I finally realized I needed a new meaning. Being different meant that I had to look at who I was separate from the crowd. I began to see my unique gifts. I began to see my differences as blessings I had been gifted. Instead of seeing those labels as negative they became positive. These labels were in fact statements that I was and am unique.

Therefore I was not average as…

“Average; the best of the worst and worst of the best” -Dov Baron.

I finally got that not fitting in didn’t make me less than average, it made me aspire to be so much more. In so doing, I had to acknowledge my gifts and that I am compelled to share those gifts.

Hey, stop skimming for a moment... Because I have a  gift Id like to share with you here is this; rather than reading this as if it was about me, (Dov Baron) read it as if it is about you. How have you let the labels from others become the screaming voice of the insane that keeps you hidden in the mediocrity that prevents you from being who you are and sharing your gifts?

“If you hide your gift from yourself and the world, you rob the world of a light that would shine into the shadows, giving direction to those who are lost under the weight of their adopted labels” -Dov Baron

Let me challenge you to put aside the labels of yesterday and begin the empowering journey of discovering your Unique Value Set.

Your Unique Value Set. is a set of skills, knowledge or talent you all ready have but likely don’t fully recognize yet. However, when all the parts of that Unique Value Set come together what results is your own personal brand of genius. The challenge has been that you have likely either ignored or take this Unique Value Set for granted and as a result you have created your own Genius Blind Spot!

My questions to you are; are you willing to see that discovering your Unique Value Set, your Genius Blind Spot, could have a profound impact on not only your income but also the quality of your entire life?

What would discovering that make available to you that had previously believed to be impossible?

And if you expanded that out over the next 2-5-10-40 years what might be the impact you’d have on your own life and the lives of those you love?

My last two questions are here to assist you in finding out whether what you want is a fantasy or reality:
The question is: Do you want what you said it would make available?
and:

How badly do you want it?

Listen my friend, put your bias aside because:

Freaks become leaders when they embrace their Unique Value Set.

Here’s some examples:

Albert Einstein, Salvador Dali, Copernicus, Gandhi, John lennon, Richard Bach,  Renuka Baron, Dame Edna,  Groucho Marx, George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, Henry ford, Testla, Frank Herbert, Robert Bly, and Oprah Winfrey, to name a few.

“Shine a light into the shadows of your own soul and in so doing you will light the way for others.” -Dov Baron

You really have to be honest with yourself…. Are you living the life your at the level of abundance you desire and deserve?

If not, maybe now is your time to tap into the freak within and discover the goldmine that you have negatively labeled!

If you’re like many people right now, you may feel that the media and nay-sayers have got their grubby little fingers in the soft part of your mind.  All this negative hype is being used in an attempt to direct your life and possibility of success, versus you having the ability to now grab back control of your own success path from the jaws of defeat.

It’s time for you to take back control of your financial destiny, to take back control what you think, what you feel, what you experience and of most importantly what you make happen in your life and the lives of those your care for.

Maybe, you’ve already taken back control of your financial destiny and you are just hungry for more— you know that there is a higher peak and you want to stand on it, if not for yourself, then as a legacy.

It’s time for you to experience a real breakthrough in your financial situation…  It’s time for you to discover how your own freakishness maybe the very fastest way to financial freedom!

It’s time to come to a place where you now decide that the media and the nay-sayers will not be the determining factor that defines who you are, what you experience, or how you live. You know that now is the time where you decide to lead, rather than follow.

There is a place within you, a place where no matter where you are in your finances or business, you now know you must decide that you will conquer the obstacles and you will be the victor of your circumstances!

If there’s something inside of you that knows and screams:

“Now is the time,—I will no longer be an economy victim!”

… then 4 of the most financially empowering days await you.

You can take a look by clicking on this: QWM
Imagine: Four days of working live with 5 Quantum Wealth Mastery Mentors… Four days of getting to the core of your Unique Vale Set and discovering what is hidden within you that can change everything in your financial experience in a flash. Four days that will create a real and lasting breakthrough in your thinking, feeling  and finances. It’s your turn…

This is your breakthrough… take it!

Come discover for yourself, create a strategy and a plan that will get you from where you are financially to where you want to be. Come be with people, just like you, from all over the world who share one common belief: They know that they have something magnificent to offer even if they don’t know what it is yet and they demand to live from that place!

Time is running out…

On October 15th-18th 2010 you’re going to be somewhere. The question is… will that somewhere be the place where your finances change forever?

Quantum Wealth Mastery only happens once a year. Now it’s time for you to be one of the few who do, rather than the many who are gonna and do nothing!

P.P.P.S. The Event Will Take Place In Vancouver, Canada (Just across the Boarder from Seattle) Take a look at this stunning city

Are you where you want to be?

Q: At the End of Next Summer Where Will You Be?

A: I’m Sorry to tell you: Unless You Take Some Very Different Action…You’ll Be Pretty Much Where You Are! (Or worse)

The media are telling us: “Home sales slowed further following an initial drop after the expiration of the home buyer tax credit at the end of June, prompting a slowdown in construction activity.”

An official US unemployment rate that hit 10% last year, and seems set to stay there or thereabouts for months yet, already makes grim reading.

Yet there’s growing concern that even that large and unpleasant number doesn’t do justice to the size and severity of America’s problem with jobs, or the lack thereof.

The manufacturing sector also saw growth slowing in several districts across the US, the Fed said. And if the US sneezes, Canada gets the flu…

Okay, we all know the bubble has burst and what clear once again is: When they told you to get a good job and everything would be great…They Lied!

So what does all this really mean?

In my opinion:

‘Do Not Go Looking For Another Job!

The days of believing that there is such a thing as a steady job are gone…

Instead: Believe it or not, you can now build a life doing the exciting, mind-expanding, joy-creating activities you were born to do. I know because I have a lot of my clients, students and friends who have just that!

“When we take on the generalities of others we often do so at the cost of the specifics that come from knowing who we are. It is only in the specifics of who we are, that we gain the inner certainty that gives us freedom from external manipulation.” ~Dov Baron

Believe me, Ill bet there’s a good chance that you didn’t grow up in a ghetto. And for those of you who did… when you got out, did you fall 10+ stories onto your face? Nah,  Didn’t think so.

Both of those things were as you can imagine massively repressive and I only recommend going through them if you need as big a wake-up call,  as I did…

These are all reasons I love Quantum Wealth Mastery… It is an opportunity for me and some close friends to open minds in ways that they may never have experienced before. In a way that I needed back in the ghetto and certainly after I feel.

The line up for this year’s Quantum Wealth Mastery has become more excited than ever.

Stephan Stavrakis say that we’ve got to get out of this dag eat dog mentality into a  No More Competition, one! Stephan and Scott Paton are returning, Scott is going to give us the latest insights into the next big wave of money making technology that anyone can tap into. He calls it the Un-Web.

While James Malinchak - The Big Money Speaker, will be showing you how to access the speaking world so as to share your message. Peggy McColl will show you how to create Viral Explosions! so that you and your business burst onto the scene, and Diane Conklin is going to show you how you can mast the social media world in 27 minutes a day.

And of course me Dov Baron Ill be sharing with you how to tap into what I call Your Genius Blind Spot, discover what you already have that other people would willing pay you big fat checks to share.

Ive been chatting with all these wealth masters and they are all excited to share their expertise with you.

Learn more about our exciting group go take a look at http://QuantumWealthMastery.com

“The idea that we need mentors in order to succeed easier is as ridiculous an idea as the one that we need oxygen to breath easier” ~ Dov Baron…

Like I said at the start: Summer is over. Are you where you want to be?

Q: At the End of Next Summer Where Will You Be?

Once again: I’m Sorry to tell you: Unless You Take Some Very Different Action…You’ll Be Pretty Much Where You Are! (Or worse)…

As someone who strives for excellence you know that no matter how successful you are there is always another peak to climb and another obstacle to overcome.  Are you ready to launch your life to that next level? If so, it’s time to make a bold move and take immediate action.

It’s time to step into a leadership role in your own life!

I highly suggest that you register now for the entire Quantum Wealth Mastery event taking place the evening of October 15th – and all day 16, 17, & 18th, and walk away with a massive shift in your wealth resonance, the map, and everything you need to achieve massive wealth now.

Are There Any REAL Leaders left?

When I was a boy, I wanted to be an American. It wasn’t the cowboys or Hollywood that appealed to me. It was something more, something deeper.

In America I saw a country where it was truly possible to become more than the stature of your birthplace. I saw America as a country that grew great leaders.

Today, as a man in his 50s, having traveled to many places around the world, I have seen many political leaders from many different nations say one thing and do another. My belief in the inherent beauty in people has grown and sadly, at the same time, so has my cynical view about the words of politicians.

‎“Every leader, every genius, every star must face the pull toward mediocrity.

The pull that will keep you from your own brilliance is the need to be accepted.

Remember no greatness was ever achieved without opposition”. ~Dõv Baron…

Back on January 20th 2009, hopeful tears rolled down both my British and my wife’s Fijian cheeks like streams that suddenly appear across a dried up desert after an unexpected rainfall.

I know our tears were merely drops in the ocean of the collective joyous tears being shed not just in the US, but around the world.

On that day, as I watched the inauguration of Barack Obama as the 44th President of USA, I saw the shoots of faith burst through in what has been a desert of leadership desperation. Barack Obama had inspired a stream that had awakened a spirit of greatness that had lain dormant for far too long.

Barack Obama did not claim to be a wizard who could wave a magic wand and fix everything. In his Inaugural speech, he made it clear that for dreams to come true work is needed and that part of that work is about being inclusive rather than exclusive.

This man, the new president of the U. S of A was all about Change. Eloquent and articulate, Barack Obama was, for so many, the manifestation of Martin Luther King Jr.‘s civil rights dream.

America may have been, and may still be, if only by a thread, the leader of the free world. However, to be a nation that leads the free world, that nation must have a “True Leader” at the helm. A leader who has integrity, someone who says what they will do, and does what they say. Sadly, it seems to me that there are fewer and fewer True Leaders in the world today.

And so I ask: Where are the contemporary Gandhi, Martin Luther King Jr., Rosa Parks, Indira Gandhi, Nelson Mandela, JFK?

Where are men and women who are willing to do the work that is necessary to change the world?  Are there no REAL leaders left?

Just to be clear:  I’m not attacking Barak Obama; remember I was delighted at his having been elected as President. I’m simply asking–Are There No REAL Leaders left?

So what are the qualities of a Real Leader providing Authentic Leadership?

For years I traveled and studied with great masters and along the way I became fascinated with leaders. Not just any leader, but great leaders men and women who walked their talk, who stood in the face of rejection and were unwavering in their convictions.  Some of these leaders were people I personal didn’t like or agree with, but they had certain qualities in common and I decided to make a study of those qualities. In fact, it is upon the framework of that research that I developed what I call my Core Affluence System for leadership development.

To start off, the term “affluence” is most often assigned as being directly and even exclusively related to money, and that is not the case. The root meaning of the word affluence is flow. So if a person is affluent, they are in the flow.  The Core of  Core Affluence System is a multi-layered acronym. However, I’d like to share with you the first layer of the Core Affluence System

C: Clarity.

A great leader must have a clarity of purpose. Great leaders know specifically what they want and why they want it!

O: Ownership.

A great leader takes complete ownership of that purpose. They have a burning desire, a sense of mission about their purpose!

R: Resilience.

A great leader stays the course, does not lose focus just because of opposition.

E: Expansiveness.

A great leader has a laser beam level of clarity about the desired outcome, however, they are also expansive in their thinking about how that outcome will come to fruition.

Every great leader I have researched and studied operated from a place of Core Affluence !

In the interest of transparency and at the risk of upsetting some folks, from my position it seems most contemporary leaders, even those in personal development, have become pretty wishy-washy, passive and placating.  What they say and what they do seems designed to validate denial and make people feel good for a short time. (And my comments aren’t meant to be taken personally.  Some great folks are aspiring to be leaders, but that’s not the same as being a REAL LEADER in the world today)

Much has dramatically changed since I began my path several decades ago. However, I’m left wondering if you still yearn for leaders and teachings delivered by higher caliber leaders who stand in integrity and are willing to call you to stand with them in yours?

I look forward to your feedback

Is that why your life doesn’t shine the way you want it to?

Let me put it another way….

Is your future going to be your past with a paint job?

Let me explain what I mean… If you were to take a look into the future of most peoples lives you would see that for the largest majority of them, their future will be pretty consistent with their past – except there’s possibly a slight and fairly uninspiring level of improvement. It’s like they took the old jalopy and gave it a paint job in order to convince themselves it was new.

I’m not saying this to me mean, we just need to be honest. Seriously, put some thought into it, most people are “waiting” for something or someone to bring about the change they say they want. Maybe “the secret” or some other magical thing will come along and solve their problems, but in all likelihood it won’t and in a moment I’ll tell you why.

Why is it that most people lives pretty much the same from year to year?

Why are so many people ‘stuck’ when we live in a time where there is more knowledge and more availability to that knowledge than ever before in history?

Are we on automatic and if we are, can we get off it?

Let yourself marinade in this thought:

“Most people’s lives are nothing more than the realization and the rationalization of a promise… A promise to whom, you may ask.

A promise or a series of promises they make to themselves”.

We either (consciously or unconsciously) promise to live ‘better’ than we have, and than those around us have, which means we are willing to butt up against the people, situations and what’s ‘normal’ in our lives. Please be clear , I’m not talking about being some kind of a rebel without a cause, what I am talking about is going “Deep” within to discover your authentic self.

Of course there is another option: Promise to not be a ‘problem’, take a look around, decide what’s ‘normal’, be quiet, accept your circumstances. Which means you also must accept how you are treated as a result of being with the people you’re with in those circumstances.

The question worth asking yourself is which set of promises are you living by?

Because that will absolutely determine every circumstance of your life for the next 5-10-20 years

I look forward to reading your feedback.
