The Greatest Money-Making Secret in History

This is a wonderful book. You will not want to put it down once you have started it. It is so inspirational. I had always had a desire that one day when I could afford it I would support a particular organisation. After reading Joe Vitale's book I realised that I could do it now and I have. Anyone reading this book will go straight into action. It is just THE BEST. An added bonus are stories from other people plus the chance to visit their websites.

Gentle Reminder of a Universal Principle

The secret is out. Indeed, it was out about 2000 years ago with the words, "Give and it will be given unto you." The amazing thing is that more of us don't apply this universal principal. So Joe Vitale has put together a gentle reminder for us in his little book. His personal stories and words of wisdom from friends help guide us to apply this natural law so that we have a greater chance of reaping its financial rewards. First, he introduces the premise that the more you give, the more you have. I've always known this is true for love. But I must admit that I haven't done actual tests to find out if what Joe says about money is true: if you give a little, you get a little; if you give a lot, you get a lot. But who to give to? If you expect a financial return (which of course we should never be thinking of at the time of giving), you'll want to give especially to those who offer you spiritual nourishment, who inspire and bring out the best in you. Joe suggests that we not give just because someone needs it, or because you think you should, but only because it feels good to give. When you donate from a heart filled with gratitude, you send a message to yourself and the world that you are prosperous and in the flow. Thus the flow continues to bring prosperity back to you. Being "in the flow" seems to be a critical part of Joe's money-making secret. To help stay in the flow, Joe suggests forgiveness, especially of those who owe you money. We should remember that money doesn't come from these people anyway; it comes through them. Also, forgiveness brings a feeling of being at peace, and inner peace keeps us in the flow. Sounds good to me. Being in the flow also means receiving as openly as giving. Although this concept was given only a few lines in his book, Joe may have hit the biggest obstacle to prosperity for people in our profession. Networking is gifted with "do-gooders," people who love doing for others, being in service. But allowing others to do for us? And enjoying receiving as much as giving? The greatest challenge to receiving may simply be our resistance to it. More food for thought came from the 4-page chapter about industry leaders John Milton Fogg and Tom "Big Al" Schreiter. How might their stories of giving away what they wanted to sell, and as a result selling more than they ever dreamed of, apply to our own businesses? Allen D'Angelo sums it up in his chapter when he says that "somehow in the vast scheme of life we are rewarded in direct proportion to the value we create for others....as a value creator I must give sincerely, abundantly, effortlessly, with absolutely no expectation of direct immediate reward." In contrast to the depth of the classic "Think and Grow Rich," Joe Vitale's fast, easy read could aptly be called "Give and Grow Rich."

Give-Recieve...Give-Receive...More Give & Receive.........

Great Book.Based On Universe Rule of giving & Receiving.I read Entire Book in One Sitting.storys Were very much Intresting & Inspiring.But I dont Give To Recieve now.I give just for the pleasure of giving & I think thats the way it works better.

Soul's Fuel: A Fantastic Book

I've been discussing your book, The Greatest Money-Making Secret in History on my yahoo group, Imagination Science. That group by the way, was inspired by me reading your book, "Spiritual Marketing." There's been a lively debate. Since reading some great stuff on giving, in 1987 I've always believed in it. But I wasn't practicing it properly. I also didn't realize how I could actually get more money by giving. Even though I was in a state of very low finances, it didn't matter. I just had to give something. I'll explain the results a little further below. I also realized that giving is the greatest marketing secret. I read your emails Joe because there is usually something valuable for me in your messages. I must admit that I don't read many other newsletters. I just don't have the time. Giving seems to me to be one of the Ultimate Secrets of the Universe. It's also the easiest success principle to put into action. It quickly gets me outflowing and I'm amazed at its power and results. Here are some of the amazing things that happened to me because of giving, in several different areas of my life. My weekly income has gone up 113% in the last week. This is my best week financially of the year. New clients started calling me from all over the place. I've never had so many new customers in a week. Also one customer tripled her weekly sessions with me. I just gave her son a small gift worth about $2.00, after his lesson. In fact, I felt I had been too hard on him and was quite sad. I thought he wanted to quit. Instead I started doing sessions with him twice a week and then twice a week with his sister. I've gotten all sorts of clients and client leads. I've decided to give my coaching and support service away. I've offered anyone who's contacted me via email or telephone a free consultation. One person I bought a dessert for at a local event. He was so happy that he immediately asked me for my business card and planned to call me. It turns out he was looking for someone who offered the exact service I was offering. The previous week and this week, he was asking me in a joking way to buy him dessert. So this week I did it. I've been on the telephone with him giving him free advice for three nights. He's having wonderful success and he's probably going to become a client. By giving I don't have to use any manipulative sales techniques. It is the easiest and most effective marketing I've ever done.Everything is starting to come in an abundant flow. I'm doing more of the things I like. This idea of giving seems like a miracle to me. I've given food to the homeless. Given money to someone who was down on his luck. I never did stuff like this before. I figured it couldn't hurt. At least I would feel good about myself. Whatever I have given seems to have come back multiplied. The spirit of giving has changed my internal flow of energy and things come to me with ease. I even got a birthday gift from a friend that was 5 times bigger than what he would usuall
