Well, it's finally out and the launch is on!

If you're playing The "Old" Business Game as an owner, employee or temporarily unemployed at this moment, now is the time to discover and begin playing The New Business Game.

Hallmarks of the "Old" Business Game:

 * Get results, no matter what price you must pay
 * Vulnerability to people and forces beyond your control
 * Scarcity
 * Endless to-do lists
 * Fear
 * Stress
 * Pressure and struggle

Hallmarks of the "New" Business Game:


 * People and outside forces align to support you
 * Abundance
 * To do lists take care of themselves
 * Fun
 * Joy
 * Ease
 * Extraordinary results without focusing on them or paying a "price"
 * And so much more ...

My new book tells the entire story, opens a gateway into playing The New Business Game, and gives you everything you need to leap through it and begin your own personal and professional journey of expansion.

There's a special book launch page with special "offers" if you feel moved to get one or more copies during the launch window.

Video Games, The Human Game, And The Business Game ...

I recently expressed appreciation in the form of money for a Playstation 3 video game center. I did it to play video games myself and also to play with my kids, Ali and Aidan.

The interesting thing about video games is that many of them were created from blockbuster Hollywood movies -- like Batman, Harry Potter, the Bourne spy series, etc.

When you watch a movie, it's a passive experience for you. You sit and watch. It's very cool, but it's also a "flat" experience in many ways.

With video games based on a movie, you get to enhance the overall experience because you get to participate in the action and story line.

You get to immerse yourself in stories, like the movies, get to know and follow characters, like in the movies, and experience the environments created for them (like Hogwarts in Harry Potter, Europe in the Bourne series, Gotham City in Batman).

But with the video games, you don't just sit and watch. You get to do things, make choices for the characters, explore various options in the scenes and story line, etc.

It creates a deeper, more rich and fulfilling experience.

As I played the Playstation games myself and with my kids, it dawned on me that this is an excellent metaphor for The Real And True Reason you're  here playing The Human Game (and The Business Game).

You came here to play a game, The Human Game (and The Business Game), to have fun (like so many people who play video games and enjoy them), and to have incredibly rich and fulfilling Human Game (and Business Game) experiences -- that you're an incredibly active participant in.

Plus, in Phase 2, the nature of the stories, options, choices, etc. change and expand to give you even more possibilities to play for the sheer pleasure of playing -- including when you start paying The New Business Game.

What Being Rich, Poor, Wealthy And Prosperous Really Means ...

getty.jpgJ. Paul Getty, who, at the time was the world's richest man, wrote this about his friend Hal Seymour:

Hal considered himself to be very wealthy in personal freedom. He was always able to do things he wanted to, and always had time in which to do them. He seldom missed a chance to remind me that, in these regards, I was much poorer than he.

Before his death a few years ago, he frequently wrote me letters which opened with the wryly humorous but meaningful salutation: "To the Richest Man in the world from the Wealthiest. ......"

I'll have to admit that I envied Hal his abundance of time--which is one of the forms of wealth that people tend to disregard these days. Rich as I may be from a material standpoint, I've long felt that I'm very poor, indeed, in time.

For decades, my business affairs have made extremely heavy inroads on my time, leaving me little I could use as I pleased. There are books that I have wanted to read--and books I have wanted to write. I've always yearned to travel to remote parts of the globe which I've never seen.

(J. Paul Getty, How To Be Rich, New York: Jove Books, 1965, preface, p. vii)


Why would the world's richest man (and so many others who play The "Old" Business Game in Phase 1) create "poverty" like that? Because in Phase 1, with the "convince yourself you're the opposite of who you really are" dynamics in place, it has to be that way.

Who you really are has total control over Your time and can do as please in every moment. So, in Phase 1, you must experience the opposite of that most or all of the time. In Phase 1, there are so many things outside your control that create endless items on your to-do list, including so many urgent ones, that living in your natural state simply isn't possible.

In Phase 2, however, after you knock out enough cloud cover, the game is about having more and more of a direct experience of who you really are, including total control over your time and absolute freedom to say, be, and do anything.

In Phase 2, therefore, once you expand enough and knock out enough cloud cover, you begin to experience new "stories" that reduce the number of items on your to-do list, reduce or eliminate the need for you to be involved if those items stay on the to-do list for your business, or whatever else you choose to free up your time and energy to focus only on what you really love.
