What does my high school Spanish class have to do with anything?

Back in high school, our Spanish teacher introduced the class
(and me) to a 30 record set of recorded dialogs that coincided
with our text book. Wanting me to succeed, Mom bought me
a set. (wonder if she knows what she started)


I know, I’m dating myself.....I listened to those records
over and over and over again. Not only did that make me
the #1 student in Miss Gorski’s freshman class, those
recordings became such a part of me that I can still recite
the dialogs to this day...

"Oye...donde que da la biblioteca?
Alli delante. Vas ahora mismo?
Sí. Tengo que buscar un libro.
Voy contigo. Tengo que leer el periodico."


OK...so forty+ years later,
Maybe I can't spell them...
but I CAN STILL SAY THEM!
(and I can STILL hear John Barnes' bass tones saying
"Paseme el pan, por favor. Y la mantequilla")


Now I don't often have the occasion to tell a Spanish-speaking
person that I have to go read a newspaper at the library...
or ask them to please pass me the bread and butter...

So what's the point?

Just this...

Those dialogs are ingrained. What I learned so many years ago
is still with me. It's a part of me.

My Spanish experience also validates the fact that repetitive
listening really works!

For years, those "in the know” have listened to recordings over
and over because it’s one of the most effective ways to learn.
Repetitious listening is how babies learn to talk, how we learn
our ABC’s, etc. (ask any advertiser how they get their slogan
into your head!)

In his book, What to Say When you Talk to Yourself,
Dr. Shad Helmstetter recommends making a recording that
addresses the areas in your life that you want to change
and play it over and over...every morning and night.
This is based on fundamental truths about the way our
subconscious minds work.

My mentor and good friend, Diane Hochman, has always been a
HUGE advocate of listening to audios (tapes, CD’s and MP3’s)
and did a 2 part video series about it awhile back. In case you’re
interested, here’s Part 1 and here’s Part 2. (She says she was
actually referred to as the “Headphone Lady” in her town! LOL)

Then this morning, I listened to Eric Worre’s vlog post for
today, and heard the same message...
“Using Audio to Re-program your Mind”

Listening to audios is the easiest way to learn anything......

and it’s EFFORTLESS!

There’s TONS of content on the Internet ready and waiting to
be downloaded into your computer and mp3 player.

But here’s the thing...

Do you have the time and/or money to go get it?

I HONESTLY hope you do.

There’s a lot of genius out there just waiting...

But if you don't, what then?

What if there was one place where you could tap into an audio
library with over 500 hours of audios on every topic you can
think of in network marketing?

What if you could download ANYTHING you wanted,
including articles, for an entire week?

What if I told you that there IS such a place,
AND that you can have access to it for a measly BUCK?


What if you decided to spend that buck in your pocket on some
solid training for yourself?

Listen...

You want to succeed, right?

You KNOW there are things you need to learn…
Things you need to change.

You gonna sit there and hope the “solution” comes to you
Or spend a dollar and begin programming yourself for success?
(you know you’ve got a buck)

By the way…you’ll get other perks besides access to the
audio library, not the least of which is being part of
Diane Hochman’s private, inner circle trainings with me!

So here's the deal...

Spend a buck...don't spend a buck...

Your choice

BUT....

Whatever you do, start listening and learning.

Start reprogramming your mind for success today.

You SO deserve it!


Change your mind.

Change your income.

Change your life.
