By now you may be wondering what the “Plus!” was all about.  The ‘Plus!’ is truly all about IMPLEMENTATION – putting into practice what you learn.  Statistics have shown time and time again that roughly 95% of the people who buy a self-improvement book or program – never read or complete it in its entirety, let alone apply the knowledge, skills, or wisdom presented.

My goal of the Success Principles Plus! Workshop is to facilitate the process whereby you actually implement what you learn.  Jack’s book is a collection of principles – the golden nuggets of the insight and wisdom of many other teachers – each who have a unique perspective on human potential, personal and spiritual development.  I have  been an avid student of this area of knowledge for nearly 35 years and have read and studied hundreds of books, attended dozens of seminars and workshops, been coached by some of the wisest and most insightful people who have gone before.
Although I have implemented many of the principles, ideas, strategies, and tactics offered by many of these great authors – often times I was inconsistent.  Thus my results have been inconsistent.  So, my goal is two-fold; help you and me implement these success principles CONSISTENTLY into our lives so that we may reap the rewards you and I so ardently desire!  I feel that by leading and facilitating the workshop, I must ‘walk-my-talk’ and be an example of what to do.  So, it will not be a case of do what I say – it will be ‘do as I do’ – the only way that really works.

However, one thing to keep in mind, is that some of the deepest insights I have had and some of the most important lessons have, come from knowing what questions to ask.  Something many people do not seem to  know, is that the Latin root of the word ‘educate’ is ‘educo’ – which means to ‘draw out from within’.  So what you will find is that what you are truly looking for is inside of you right now.

Reveals how our thoughts determine our reality

Read the works of  James Allen, author of As a Man Thinketh;  Allen reveals how our thoughts determine reality.  Whether or not we are conscious of it, our underlying beliefs shape our character, our health and appearance, our circumstances, and our destinies.   Allen shows how we can master our thoughts to create the life we want, or else we drift through life unconscious of the inner forces that keep us mired in failure and frustration.   “The Vision that you glorify in your mind, the Ideal that you enthrone in your heart-this you will build your life by, this you will become.”  This principle, which others have called “The Secret” or the “Law of Attraction,” was clearly and convincingly stated for the first time in “As a Man Thinketh.”

Tells us the complete story behind the world's most famous equation

David Bodanis, author of E=mc²: A Biography of the World’s Most Famous Equation;  Already climbing the bestseller lists-and garnering rave reviews-this “little masterpiece”* sheds brilliant light on the equation that changed the world.  David Bodanis – author, mathematician, intellectual – thinks faster than he can talk; okay so many of us can think faster than we talk, but Bodanis is quite unique.   This is very disturbing because he talks at an auctioneer’s clip.   He knows everything, or at least seems to know everything, but is far from a know-it-all.  His knowledge issues forth matter-of-factly, as though everyone on earth knows what he knows.   For instance, the Chicago native said the following as casually as one would say “Good morning,” or “God bless you”:

“Right now, particles from distant explosions in our galaxy are being funneled through magnetic lines as they head toward Earth.   When they hit the Earth’s upper atmosphere, they explode, and the shattered particles come down and go through our bodies.   Right now, tiny particles are bombarding my fingers.  They’re going through the mayor’s brain.  They’d go through George W. Bush’s brain if it were possible.   It takes these particles 15 minutes to reach the Earth, whereas it takes light 60,000 years.   They move so fast, distances contort, seem to shrink, time slows down.”

It was mid-morning; he was drinking decaf.

“This is not a physics book.  It is a history of where the equation [E=mc²] came from and how it has changed the world.   After a short chapter on the equation’s birth, Bodanis presents its five symbolic ancestors in sequence, each with its own chapter and each with rich human stories of achievement and failure, encouragement and duplicity, love and rivalry, politics and revenge.   Readers meet not only famous scientists at their best and worst but also such famous and infamous characters as Voltaire and Lavoisier…

Exploring the Role of Spirituality in Technology

Gregg Braden, scientist investigating the role of spirituality in technology and author of many books such as The Divine Matrix and Unleashing the Power of the God Code;  Between 1993 and 2000, a series of groundbreaking experiments revealed dramatic evidence of a web of energy that connects everything in our lives and our world—the Divine Matrix.   From the healing of our bodies, to the success of our careers, relationships, and the peace between nations, this new evidence demonstrates that we each hold the power to speak directly to the force that links all of creation.   What would it mean to discover that the power to create joy, to heal suffering, and bring peace to nations lives inside of you?   How differently would you live if you knew how to use this power each day of your life?

His 12 books have sold more than 8 million copies in 17 languages

Carlos Castaneda, a spiritual visionary and author of numerous books including The Active Side of Infinity and Separate Reality;  “Ordinarily, events that change our path are impersonal affairs, and yet extremely personal.   His teacher, don Juan Matsus, said this is guiding me as his apprentice to collect what I considered to be the memorable events of my life…. Don Juan described the total goal of the shamanistic knowledge that he handled as the preparation for facing the definitive journey: the journey that every human being has to take at the end of his life.   He said that what modern man referred to vaguely as life after death was, for those shamans, a concrete region filled to capacity with practical affairs of a different order than the practical affairs of daily life, yet bearing a similar functional practicality.   Don Juan considered that to collect the memorable in their lives was, for shamans, the preparation for their entrance into that concrete region, which they called the active side of infinity.”

A new way to get more living out of life

Dr. Maxwell Maltz, renowned plastic surgeon who published the first book that defined the mind/body connection – Psycho-Cbernetics;  He was inspired to move from treating “outer scars” to “inner scars” after observing that so many patients’ unhappiness and insecurities were not cured, as they and he had believed would occur when he gave them the perfect new faces they desired. Dr. Maltz first wrote of this discovery in his book New Faces, New Futures.  In this groundbreaking book, Dr. Maltz suggested that many people “see themselves” inaccurately, their perceptions distorted by unchallenged and often erroneous beliefs embedded in the subconscious mind.
