YOU HAVE NOT BECAUSE YOU ASK NOT by RG Williams, PhD

rgwilliamslive@gmail.com (Dr. RG Williams) — Mon, 02 Feb 2009 17:10:00 +0000

2008 was a year of mixed feelings, emotions and views. Many lost jobs, income and houses. Loss created stress, pain, anger and confusion and even death. The world economy seem to heave like a tsunami. Oil prices increased at warp speed causing another massive surge through every industry... airfare increases, consumer goods increased because the trucking industry was forced to increase cargo prices. Many consumer were forced to walk to work, bike to work, bus to work, and take a second or third job just to pay for normal life needed products. Then came the job cutbacks, layoffs, reductions, shorter work weeks, etc. All hope seem to be slipping fast into a very dark black hole.

Then we clicked over into 2009 and people began working on their New Year's resolutions, goals and commitments. New vision was being conceived and has started to bring forth new fruit. Are we still experiencing layoffs, reductions, confusion and stress? Absolutely, yet there seems to be a new hope surging.

Why? What is causing all of this new hope?

The simple answer is people are beginning to ask for the change. Not just asking the government for change, they are asking themselves for change, and most importantly they are asking the Infinite Intelligence for change. The Holy Bible says - "Ye have not because ye ask not" - Napoleon Hill states in "Think and Grow Rich" - What the mind of man can conceive and believe it can achieve.

Let's break that down -

What the mind:

the creating force, the management center, the receiver of inspiration, the vision center, the imagination mover, etc

of man can conceive:

create, imagine, envision, see, inspiration, develop, blueprint, plan, dream, ask, etc.

and believe:

faith, trust, follow, know, forgive, give into, etc.

it can achieve:

accomplish, produce, create, build, give, destroy, expand, win, finish, etc.

Only by giving into true faith in abudance through the Universe, the Infinite Intelligence, asking for and believing in can we achieve. We stand in front of a new, fresh, blank canvas every moment to create what we choose. We have the power to control every thought, every emotion, every moment. That power is within each of us from the beginning. We choose how to react, how to see things and events, how to move forward. No one can take any of that away from us, UNLESS, we give them permission to.

2009 is a building year, a new canvas. It is not up to our government to give us permission to dream, to conceive. It is up to each one of us. Imagination, as Albert Einstein taught, is the most important attribute within. We could change the wording from Napoleon Hill and say "What the mind of man can IMAGINE and HAVE TRUE FAITH it can CREATE!

STOP giving up your power!

Ask for everything! Ask for you territories or boundaries to be expanded, ask for strength, ask for opportunities, ask for vision, ask for peace of heart and clarity of mind, ask and ye shall receive. This is your time and your season. Everything exists for abundance and not scarcity - however, abundance does not mean waste or wasteful. Be mindful of your what you receive and make sure that you are a true conduit to pass it on to others. We are all on this rock, called earth, together and together we imagine the pure change for the best for all.

I imagine abudance for one and all!

Dr. MARTIN LUTHER KING Jr's LIFE BLUEPRINT by Dr RG Williams

rgwilliamslive@gmail.com (Dr. RG Williams) — Sat, 13 Dec 2008 20:53:00 +0000

This speech was given by Dr. King just before is untimely death. As I read it I was moved, first by the fact that it was given to Jr. High School level children, what great insight to start early with youth to give direction. Secondly, I found Dr. King's comments of not allowing anyone to tell you who you should be or how you should be extremely important.

Life is not a popularity contest and when you have a blueprint for your life or business you in essence have put on the blinders to stay focused on your calling.

Enjoy these words from Dr. King...

WHAT IS YOUR LIFE'S BLUEPRINT?

Six months before he was assassinated, King spoke to a group of students at Barratt Junior Hight School in Philadelphia on October 26, 1967.

I want to ask you a question, and that is: What is your life's blueprint?

Whenever a building is constructed, you usually have an architect who draws a bluepring, and that blueprint serves as the pattern, as the guide, and a building is not well erected without a good, solid blueprint.

Now each of you is in the process of building the structure of your lives, and the question is whether you have a proper, a solid and a sound blueprint.

I want to suggest some of the things that should begin your life's blueprint. Number one in your life's blueprint, should be a deep belief in your own dignity, your worth and your own somebodiness. Don't allow anybody to make you feel that you're nobody. Always feel that you count. Always feel that you have worth, and always feel that your life has ultimate significance.

Secondly, in your life's blueprint you must have as the basic principle the determination to achieve excellence in your various fields of endeavor. You're going to be deciding as the days, as the years, unfold what you will do in life - what your life's work will be. Set out to do it well.

And I say to you, my young friends, doors are opening to you - doors of opportunities that were not open to your mothers and your fathers - and the great challenge facing you is to be ready to face these doors as they open.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, the great essayist, said in a lecture in 1871, "If a man can write a better book or preach a better sermon or make a better mousetrap than his neighbor, even if he builds his house in the woods, the world will make a beaten path to his door."

This hasn't always been true - but it will become increasingly true, and so I would urge you to study hard, to burn the midnight oil; I would say to you, don't drop out of school. I understand all the sociological reasons, but I urge you that in spite of your economic plight, in spite of the situation that you're forced to live in - stay in school.

And when you discover what you will be in your life, set out to do it as if God Almighty called you at this particular moment in history to do it. Don't just set out to do a good job. Set out to do such a good job that the living, the dead or the unborn couldn't do it any better.

If it falls your lot to be a street sweeper, sweep streets like Michelangelo painted pictures, sweep streets like Beethoven composed music, sweep streets like Leontyne Price sings before the Metropolitan Opera. Sweep streets like Shakespeare wrote poetry. Sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will have to pause and say: Here lived a great street sweeper who swept his job well. If you can't be a pine at the top of the hill, be a shrub in the valley. Be the best little shrub on the side of the hill.

Be a bush if you can't be a tree. If you can't be a highway, just be a trail. If you can't be a sun, be a star. For it isn't by size that you win or fail. Be the best of whatever you are.

- From the estate of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

The Secret before the Secret by RG Williams

rgwilliamslive@gmail.com (Dr. RG Williams) — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 23:23:00 +0000

How many of you have watched the video or read the book - "the Secret"? The Law of Attraction was brought to the attention of the world through this great work. Great people, authors, ministers, motivational mentors and the like were brought together to share their views on this very powerful Law.

The Law of Attraction stats that you will attract into your life the things that you focus on. I may be simplifying it a bit, yet that is the concept. You create a thought and a vision of what you want in your life and keep it in front of you so wherever you turn you focus your attention on that which you are seeking. The Law of Attraction works in every are of your life, with people, places, and things.

Let's say that you want a better position at work, the Secret says that you must focus your positive attention on that - a better position - you create a visual, a vision board of the new office, the new executive assistant bringing you coffee or your mail. Having lunch with the "suits" (a term from the great Michael J. Fox movie - Secret of My Success) and on and on. You create such a clear and vivid picture and "throw it out to the universe" and let the energies go to work. Then miraculously things begin to change for you at work, the manager above you gets a promotion, a transfer or quits and low and behold you are promoted to that better position.

or

You want a million dollars... you create the vision of what that amount of money looks like. You buy a poster that says "my first million" which is a stack of printed money. You print small labels - "one million dollars" and post them on the fridge, your bathroom mirror, and on your computer screen at the office. You visualize it as you close your eyes to sleep each night and say to the universe - "I am worthy of the money"!

All of this is awesome except for one major secret BEFORE the secret.... and that secret is this.....

You must understand your internal programming first before you will attract anything!

What does that mean? Simply this, what are your beliefs about money? Do you truly believe that you deserve the money, the better position, the new expensive car, the gorgeous partner? How do you see yourself? What does your internal programming tell you everyday? What are your conversations like when you talk to yourself? Do you feel that you deserve success?

or

are your internal programs holding you back? Were you taught that money is the root of all evil and having it will make you evil? Were you programmed that because you were born on the "wrong" side of the tracks that you will never amount to anything? Did you grow up over weight and were told that "people who look like you".... were your grades in school less than others and you were titled "stupid" or the "last in your class".....

What are your internal programs telling you?

The Law of Attraction is real and will attract exactly what you want, however, if your previous internal programs are still active and not deleted or replaced then you will NEVER attract the same things that you envision! You will attract what those old non-servicing programs will demand from the universe!

In my book "Open Your Destiny" I wish to share this with as many that will listen. This world is so willing to give us anything and everything we desire, we simply need to ask. The bible says "ask and ye shall receive"... What a simple concept!

I believe that a life of abundance is driven by the Law of Attraction, and the Law of Attraction will only bring true and pure abundance with a belief in self! It is all based on how we see ourselves, our self image and then how we define our programming.

Take time to discover who you are and create a life of abundance!

TAKE BACK AMERICA! By RG Williams

rgwilliamslive@gmail.com (Dr. RG Williams) — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 17:13:00 +0000

I received a YouTube video "The Second American Revolution" and I strongly recommend that everyone, everywhere - watch it, and then get off your butt and do something about it! Everyone is watching Wall Street and the World Economies and running like scared children from a "falling sky"

STOP RIGHT NOW! THIS IS AMERICA! STAND UP AND HOLD YOURSELF ACCOUNTABLE! IT IS TIME TO YELL FROM THE HOUSE TOPS "I AM MAD AS HELL AND AM NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE!!"

Or maybe you are the person that is content to allow others to control your life, dictate how much money you make, why it makes sense to overtax some and then give that overage to those that refuse to work, or be accountable for the destructive health habits... dictate what food you eat, clothes you wear, where you live, where your children go to school, what your children learn in school... maybe you are the person that says "I don't want to draw attention to me, so I won't do anything, let someone else take care of me and my family" - maybe you think it is ok to be a sheep and you can't stand those who use their voice, those who refuse to let others do things for them... I don't know who you are - BUT - you do!

SO I YELL OUT! I AM MAD AS HELL AND AM NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE! BECAUSE THAT IS WHO I AM.

What Makes A Great President? by Dr. RG Williams

rgwilliamslive@gmail.com (Dr. RG Williams) — Tue, 16 Sep 2008 17:47:00 +0000

It has been awhile since my last post - I have been traveling quite a lot laying the foundation for my new "Global Life Awareness Network" - once it is ready I will announce it here and give everyone the link.

Recently my wife and I were talking about the upcoming Presidential election for the United States and she shared with me an article from "Women's Home Journal" which I want to share with you.

"What Makes A Great President? For more than a year America has been in the process of choosing its next president. The candidates have been endlessly inspected, dissected, analyzed and debated.

Impossible expectations have been created because most people mistakenly think that the president's role is to manage the nation's problems. The reality is that a president's ability to manage is restricted by our Constitution, Congress, the courts, the states and local communities. Still, the president's role is to lead. So what makes a great leader?

The foundation of leadership is not competence or charisma, but character. Charismatic people are often assumed to be the best leaders, but it's a trait that can be used for good or evil. Three of the most charismatic leaders of the 20th century - Hitler, Mao and Stalin - were also its worst, destroying the lives of millions. Without character, charisma becomes a menace, used to manipulate situations for selfish reasons. Whether leading in business, education, politics or family, character always trumps charisma.

What we desperately need in our leaders today is strong character. And while these six qualities aren't the only ones a president should possess, it's hard to be a great leader without them.

COMPASSION - Great leaders genuinely care for and love the people they lead more than they love leading itself. Leadership without love degenerates into self-serving manipulation.

A great example of someone who led with compassion is a little-known Jewish leader name Nehemiah. In 445 B.C. he assumed the dangerous task of rebuilding Jerusalem after a devastating war. When he heard about the living conditions in the city, he mourned, prayed and fasted for several days in order to identify with his people, who were facing food shortages, high taxes and threats of violence. Sound familiar?

Nehemiah's compassion propelled him to action. Love acts. Apathy ignores. Leadership begins the moment someone assumes responsibility for the pain of others.

CONTEMPLATION - True leaders don't just act, they think. Many leaders today are like poor photographs: overexposed and underdeveloped. Always being in the spotlight blinds you. It can be addictive and corrosive to one's character.

Great leaders build deep spiritual, emotional and intellectual reserves through prayer, quiet, reading and thinking about their responsibilities. They balance time spent in the public eye with time alone.

Nehemiah understood this. He thought through decisions, crises and criticisms, seeking a wider perspective. He didn't rush to a conclusion, knowing that making the right choice was far more important than making a fast one.

CHEERFULNESS - Great leaders inspire. They maintain a hopeful attitude, even in the face of discouraging setbacks, constant criticism and abundant opposition. People don't follow discouraged leaders. They follow those who persist with hope.

The basis of leading with cheerfulness is not found in denying reality, faking optimism or creating political spin. It's rooted in faith. Notable leaders keep on believing in what's right when everyone else wants to give in or give up. They believe in overcoming evil with good.

CONCENTRATION - Great leaders stay focused on their objectives. They pay attention to key issues and refuse to be distracted by less important ones. Our next president needs to examine the three or four most critical issues facing America, not an exhaustive agenda of secondary problems.

COURAGE - When recruiting men for his Antarctic expedition in 1913, Sir Ernest Shackleton placed an advertisement in the London newspaper that read: "Men wanted for hazardous journey. Small wages, bitter cold, long months of complete darkness, constant danger, safe return doubtful. Honor and recognition in case of success." What he was saying was that only courageous people need apply; the same goes for the presidency.

When the situation requires it and the cause is worth the cost, leaders do not hesitate to take risks. When you must jump across a canyon, cautious small steps and vacillation won't work. Sometimes you just have to go for it. Genuine leaders are willing to pay that price. Attacking tough issues takes great courage because the solutions aren't always popular. Without courage, leaders are just slaves to shifting public opinion.

CLEAR CONSCIENCE - Some people believe that when it comes to their leaders, private lives don't matter, but we see in the media every day that that's not the case. Their sins may be personal, but they're definitely not private. These missteps crush credibility and followers' trust. Personal integrity is vital because leadership is always built on trust. The moment a leader loses that, he or she is no longer a leader - regardless of title of position."

Take a moment to re-read this article and then reflect on your choice for the next President of the United States of America. We are experiencing some of the most volatile economic times in the history of this great country. Never before have we had such great opportunities as well as we have right now.

My question to you is - "Are you in the game or on the sidelines watching" and " Do you know what game it is you are playing?"

You have total control of you and what you do to secure your family. What is your choice - play or watch?

ARE YOU A REAL ESTATE PROFESSIONAL? by Dr. RG Williams

rgwilliamslive@gmail.com (Dr. RG Williams) — Fri, 18 Jul 2008 00:38:00 +0000

I received this article via email today and thought it interesting enough to share....

Are you a Real Estate Professional? Maybe not, says IRS - by Diane Kennedy

"If you're a real estate investor who has ever taken a real estate loss on your tax return, there is a target on your back. Fo months, members on my Forum have been complaining about being selected for audit, and losing, based on the IRS's new set of real estate professional guidelines.

Under tax law, a "real estate professional" isn't always a licensed real estate agent or a broker. It's a tax classification, and it's an important one. As a regular real estate investor, you are limited to deducting $25,000 in passive losses each year, against your passive income. That amount begins phasing out once your taxable income tops $100,000 and disappears entirely when your income reaches $150,000. Real estate professionals have neither the dollar nor the income limitation, making this classification an important part of tax-planning.

When the market got hot, the number of real estate professionals shot up. But as the "tax gap" (the difference between taxes that should be paid and taxes that are paid) increases, government is looking for ways to turn things around, and this classification is squarely in the cross-hairs.

To meet the IRS requirements, you need two things: spend the majority of your working time spent performing qualified real estate activities (regardless of what you do), and rack up at least 750 hours. Qualified activities include "develop, redevelop, construct, reconstruct, acquire, convert, rent, operate, manage, lease or sell" real estate.

Practically speaking you won't make the cut if you work elsewhere and report full-time W-2 income. And there's a third hurdle: material participation. In a twist that can only make sense in the IRS world, real estate activities are one of two things: passive, or materially participating passive. If you have a passive loss, it can only be used against passive income. Period.

Materially participating passive losses, on the other hand, can be used against materially participating passive income and, in some cases, other income. This is where the power of the real estate professional classification come in: the ability to take the loss from real estate investments against other income. Unfortunately, what has been acceptable in the past, no longer is.

Here are three areas the IRS is focusing on right now:

Limited Partnership Interests: by definition, if you hold property in a limited partnership as a limited partner, you do not materially participate. This area is being hit hard, and the number of audits of limited partnerships has increased.

Failure to Aggregate Hours Worked: the material participation rule requires that you work 500 hours on each property you own, or make an election to aggregate all the properties together into a single 500-hour block. Fail to make this election, though, and you will run into trouble.

Failure to Meet 500 Hour Threshold: to get even the $25,000 deduction you've got to meet the 500-hour minimum, even if you aren't going for full real estate professional status. Fail to meet this requirement and your passive loss will be limited to the amount of your passive income.

But the biggest change that we're seeing is to the material participation rules, and what does and doesn't constitute a real estate activity. For example, managing real estate is a qualified activity, but managing real estate through a third-party property management company is being challenged. So if you live hundreds of miles away from your rental properties, be on the lookout for this type of question. Another is research. The hours spent on researching properties and markets is being challenged by the IRS who consider this a passive activity.

Proper records are also becoming vital. Anyone looking to claim this classification must be keeping a detailed time log of dates, locations and activities, preferably backed up with photographs or other evidence showing you hard at work.

Finally, frustrating everyone is the fact that in many cases the "new" IRS rules (which came out in December of 2007) are being applied after the fact, and made retroactive to 2007 and earlier - when the old rules were still in force. Both sides are appealing up to the Tax Court, hoping to either set a new precedent or rein in the IRS. Until the Tax court rules one way or another on whether or not the IRS can apply new rules to old earnings, we're in limbo. Reviewing your activities and taking steps to make sure your are in compliance with the new rules may be your best plan."

Diane Kennedy brings up solid points, yet the one thing that rings out loud and clear is the fact that we must all be aware of what is going on within our own affairs.

One thing that most of the Real Estate Gurus and instructors fail to mention is that you must treat this as a business and not a hobby. If real estate investing is going to be a hobby for you then you must understand that the IRS will only allow hobby deductions!

Make sure that you get GREAT legal counsel in setting up your business, have a GREAT accountant that is up to speed on the current rulings and last but not least - document, document, document everything you do as a self employed, hard worker!

I am amazed at how in America we must make tons of money in order to provide for our families, and yet when we do make tons of money we are penalized for making tons of money... but that is another seminar!
