Travel Club - Pays YOU!

I love to travel. Many of my family and friends just watched us on Facebook complete three weeks of traveling west. It was a great experience, and we are ready to travel some more. What we discovered was that we really enjoyed our uninterrupted time together and that we were ready to take on more travel opportunities. Maybe the beach next time?

I just joined Travel Ventures International and the small initiation fee to get started entitles us to a 6 night - 7 day vacation at a beautiful resort of our choice. Plus the initiation fee helped us get started in a great business opportunity where there will never be any additional fees to belong, or any minimum numbers per month, or any things to stock. It's kind of a no-brainer.

I have become part of the fastest growing team in North America, and you can join me too. Just click on this link or copy and paste it into your browser to learn a little more. http://www.tviexpress.com/rstebelton

Lessons of Forgiveness

I have written before about the importance of forgiveness in one’s life in order to move forward. For several weeks I had the privilege of listening to Rev. Charles Imhoff during the Sunday morning services at the Lancaster Campground.


The following are points Rev. Imhoff shared as a summary of his talks. Seven points to consider when you are forgiving. As you read them please contemplate who needs forgiven. Forgive those who did it. Forgive those who did nothing. Forgive yourself.


These points are lessons learned from my Christian faith. I make no apologies to anyone for sharing my faith through this writing and so do not ask forgiveness of the reader in that regard. However, even if you are not of the Christian faith, these lessons work.


  1. Don’t tell anyone! That means you don’t go around telling everyone. You don’t brag about it. You just do it. That also applies to forgiving yourself. Rick Warren has said, “Every time you hold your tongue when attacked or misrepresented, your spiritual power grows. Humility gives you authority.” Forgive them, but keep that to yourself.


  1. Don’t let them be afraid of you! What does this mean? It means that if you have forgiven them, you welcome them back without condition. You do not make them afraid or cautious to talk to you; you simply welcome them and let them know how happy you are to be with them. That’s what Jesus taught us through the parable of the prodigal son.


  1. Don’t make them feel guilty. Well, isn’t that a tough one? You forgive them, but now you’re told you can’t make them feel guilty. Then you say, “Where’s the fun in that?” People who like to make other’s feel guilty truly do not experience the power of full forgiveness.


Imparting guilt is as much a wrong as what the person who wronged you did. I know what you thinking… “but what about the person who kills someone or severely hurts someone on purpose?” Remember that arguing from extremes is the weakest kind of argument. We are talking about regular folks and situations that would likely exist within our daily lives. And, we also know of those who have had severe emotional and physical attacks who have learned to forgive in this manner. It is possible.


  1. When forgiving someone it is important to let them “save face.” Protect their self-esteem. Forgiveness does not involve humiliating them privately or publicly. What good does it do for you to forgive someone only if you humiliate them in the process? And, think about this….part of not humiliating is also forgetting.


You say what? Now I have to help them save face and also forget about it? Yes! Christ teaches us that when we are forgiven, He also forgets. That’s an amazing thing to contemplate. I’ll bet you have said, “Oh, I forgive him. But, I’ll never forget.” I have too, and I guess I still do at times. Forgetting is tough, but we have to try in order to fully realize the power of forgiveness.


  1. Protect them from the darkest secrets! Maybe you are the one who needs forgiveness. There is no doubt about the fact that at some point in time we all do things that are wrong. This is when self-forgiveness really comes into play. God really does want to forgive us and because he desires that, He also desires for you to forgive yourself. It eliminates the negative thought patterns that can so often drag us down. He wants you to confess what you have done to Him, but you don’t have to air out all your dirty laundry to your family, friends and neighbors. Realize your faults, but don’t dwell on them. Learn from your mistakes, but don’t dwell on them. Remember not to argue this point from extremes.


  1. Total Forgiveness is a “life sentence.” You may have to forgive them again and again. You may have to forgive yourself again and again. Ok, now you’re making it tough on me! You mean I have to forgive them multiple times? Yes! Because it may just creep back into your life, or something similar may happen. But, we are taught to forgive many times over, because we are forgiven endlessly. If it is done for us, we have to do it for others too.


  1. You bless them! OUCH! This one is the toughest point. Now that you have forgiven unconditionally, you expect me to bless them? If you can do this final step, you will have advanced to the highest state of forgiveness possible. As humans we have a hard time with this one. But, try it. If someone or some people have wronged you, bless them. If there are people who witnessed others hurting you but did nothing, bless them. Bless them continuously until you absolutely believe in what you are doing. Yes, this is the toughest of all the points of forgiveness, but it is the most powerful and liberating. Remember what Jesus said on the cross? “Father, forgive them for they know not what they do.”

Are You Ready for Real Change?


Fr: Ron Stebelton, CEO/Founder Eagle Leadership Consulting

Re: Ready for A Change?

In a conversation this morning, my weekly share group talked about the media declaring that the recession is over. We laughed about it because we know that there are successful people in any economy. In fact, there are some people who tell us they absolutely refuse to participate in a recession. I agree!

There is an industry that is a multi-billion dollar industry that thrives in any economy, and that is the professional development industry. People are waking up to the realization that only those who continually engage in ongoing learning to improve their knowledge and skills will be recession-proof.

In Rich Dad Poor Dad, Robert Kiyosaki explained the importance of owning your own business. And, he recently stated that if he it to do all over again he would have earned his fortune in network marketing.

Until recently only a few very fortunate individuals have been able to fully participate in the professional development industry. That is .... until recently.

Now with the power of iLearningGlobal available 24/7 you can join this industry for a very low start up cost, and begin to earn a long time residual income that could easily surpass your now depleted 401K.

My good friend, Brian Tracy, is the Chief Learning Officer of iLearningGlobal, and my direct partner. You can watch Brian introduce me on my website at http://www.eagleleadershipconsulting.com and sign up for a free goal planning kit at the same time.

Ain't It Awful!


Ain’t It Awful?

For the past 8 days my family has been on a 21 day quest to drive and camp our way out to my in-laws in Wyoming and back to our home in Ohio. The trip started out as exciting as any other family vacation. We loaded up the mini-van with our luggage, camping gear, kids and dogs. I have joked that this trip should be labeled “Mr. Marriott Goes Camping.” Up until this trip my idea of camping was a hotel with bad room service.

We traveled our way across Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa and moved smoothly into South Dakota. As we were driving toward our campsite near Deadwood, SD I could feel the transmission of our min-van slipping. I was worried since we were driving at night in the Black Hills. Just as we rounded a corner and saw the entrance into the Fish-N-Fry Campgrounds, the transmission completely gave up. Fortunately, we had just enough momentum to coast the mini-van right to a parking spot in front the camp office. It wouldn’t go another inch.

We were so tired after a long day driving that we rented a cabin just for the night, then decided the next morning to set up our tent and get settled while I called various places to see if they could work on our vehicle. I went to the camp office and got suggestions of repair shops from the camp owners, found a place that I was comfortable with who recommended a local tow truck driver, the local tow truck driver was a great guy who recommended a car rental business that was local and honest. Keeping a positive attitude brought the right people together to help us continue our vacation.

No matter what your situation, the only thing you have to ask yourself is; “How can I make this situation work?” Don’t get caught up in self pity and playing the game, “Ain’t It Awful?” It is so easy to get caught up in the negative and let others feed your brain with their “Ain’t It Awful?” stories.

You know the the “AIA” people. They are the ones who say to you things like, “I got up late this morning, my back hurts, my job stinks, my car broke down too and it never was right after that, ……. You need to get away from them as soon as you can.

Negative people attract negative situations and circumstances. Positive people will experience setbacks too, but they deal with them differently and can move on.

Successful people exhibit the following traits:

1.They surround themselves with only positive people and always remain positive no matter what the situation. You become like the people you hang around with.

2.They realize that the only opinion of them that counts is the one they have for themselves.

3.They have learned to forgive. They forgive those who did it. They forgive those who did nothing. They forgive themselves.

4.They learn from their mistakes, but won’t dwell on them.

5.They celebrate their successes, but won’t dwell on them.

6.They invest in themselves and are constantly acquiring new knowledge and skills by reading books, listening to audio programs, or watching experts. They realize they will not live long enough to learn everything they need to know by themselves. They know they have to learn from the experts!

If you have not experienced the power of iLearningGlobal, the EDGE and Premium sites, I invite you to join it today. Go to http://rstebelton.ilg.tv to explore, learn more and join. You will surround yourself with positive people and never again play the “Ain’t It Awful?” game.

Slice and Dice Your Tasks by Brian Tracy


Slice and Dice the Task
By: Brian Tracy

Why You Procrastinate:

A major reason for procrastinating on big, important tasks is that they appear so large and formidable when you first approach them. One technique that you can use to cut a big task down to size is the "Salami slice" method of getting work done. With this method, you lay out the task in detail and then resolve to do just one slice of the job for the time being, like eating a roll of salami, one slice at a time. Or like eating one piece of a frog at a time.

Do One Small Part to Start:

Psychologically, you will find it easier to do a single, small piece of a large project than to start on the whole job. Often, once you have started and completed a single part of the job, you will feel like doing just one more "slice." Soon, you will find yourself working through the job one part at a time, and before you know it, the job will be completed.

Just Get Started
Once you start working, you develop a sense of forward momentum and a feeling of accomplishment. You become energized and excited. You feel yourself internally motivated and propelled to keep going until the task is complete.

Action Exercises
Now, here are two actions you can take immediately to put these ideas into action.

First, select one big important task and lay it out in front of you.

Second, select one part of the task and do it immediately.
