The New GoChi Juice Version of Goji Juice -Random Thoughts

2008-03-25T08:04:00.000-07:00

Some thoughts on the new GoChi Juice version of goji juice. It's been out now for almost 2 months and here's what I've personally noticed. First of all by about 6 to 1 people favor the new GoChi Juice to our original goji juice. This is certainly not an indictment of the original product as it has been hugely successful. It does however, show just how powerful the attraction is to the new GoChi Juice.

In my 13 years in the nutritional arena this is the first time I've personally seen a product improved by over 30% in potency plus improved in several other areas like being preservative free and for only $1.25 more more bottle. This has a net effect of being a huge cost savings to you the consumer.

GoChi Himalayan Goji Juice Preservative-free, Kosher 30% More Potent!

2008-01-31T21:01:00.000-08:00

GoChi the new improved version of Himalayan Goji Juice has been making a lot of news in the less than 30 days since it has been released. Here is some of the information from a recent press release.

Developed with input from scientists around the globe, GoChi™ represents a significant advance in the goji and nutritional beverage categories, and is one of the first and only juice products backed by clinical research.

GoChi is preservative-free, halal and kosher, and contains 30 percent more polysaccharides (the active ingredient) than FreeLife’s original Himalayan Goji Juice. It also tastes great. More importantly, 9 out of 10 people who used GoChi in a recent study felt a significant health benefit in the first 14 days.

In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial, GoChi proved beneficial for human health in 13 key areas in just 14 days. Results included reduction of stress, less fatigue, increased energy, better quality of sleep, and increased regularity. The findings of this study were analyzed by top statisticians at the University of California, Irvine, and all were declared to be statistically significant, with an impressive confidence level of 90-99 percent. To the contrary, the lead researcher, who is a member of FreeLife’s Scientific Advisory Board, noted that in 12 out of the 13 areas studied, the test subjects taking the inactive placebo experienced no statistically significant improvements.

FreeLife has verified these findings with similar results in a subsequent controlled follow-up study, and the company is in the process of designing and conducting further research.
“The study on GoChi represents a monumental leap in the entire juice category,” ... “It raises the credibility of this product to a standard never before seen in the juice industry. We have taken the science to a higher level with our own clinical research specifically on our product.”

Since Himalayan Goji Juice was introduced to the market by FreeLife in 2003, the company has achieved four straight years of record growth. Since 2003, hundreds of thousands of people around the world have benefited from Himalayan Goji Juice.

“GoChi has been developed through FreeLife’s worldwide research efforts, and represents the next generation of Himalayan Goji Juice, delivering an unprecedented potency and balance of the unique Lycium barbarum polysaccharides in the goji berry,” ... “We anticipate that millions of people around the globe will benefit from this new product.” The market in the United States alone represents about 300 million adults and children.

GoChi - Goji Juice Frequently Asked Questions

2008-01-24T22:26:00.000-08:00

With the recent exciting announcement of the new more potent GoChi Goji Juice we wanted to answer a few of the questions we have received.

How is GoChi different from Himalayan Goji Juice?
GoChi was developed as a direct result of FreeLife's worldwide research efforts, and represents the next generation of Himalayan Goji Juice. It contains all the goodness of our original juice and much more! GoChi is scientifically demonstrated to deliver results in just 14 days; it contains at least 30% more LBPs than Himalayan Goji Juice; it is preservative free; is certified kosher; and has been preferred in taste tests to our already delicious Himalayan Goji Juice.

Why does GoChi cost more than Himalayan Goji Juice?
GoChi is more costly to produce than our original Himalayan Goji Juice. However, it's only $5 (USD) more per case or $1.55 more per bottle even though in terms of potency a case of the new Gochi product is the equivalent of getting 5 and a 1/3 bottles of our original goji juice. This is like getting one and a third extra bottles for only $5 more. This is a bargain in any language.

When can I expect to see results with GoChi?
In a recent, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, clinical trial, the use of just 4 ounces daily of GoChi resulted in significant health and wellness benefits in 13 important categories in 14 days. This has been termed "The GoChi Effect." Although your results may vary, the findings of this study are consistent with the results that we hear from our Customers.

GoChi The Next Generation of Himalayan Goji Juice!

2008-01-09T22:08:00.000-08:00

GoChi: The Next Generation of Himalayan Goji Juice!

One of our core principles as a company is the concept of “Constant and Never Ending Improvement.” In everything we do each day, we strive to get better and better and better. Nowhere is this reflected any better than in the announcement of the Pre-Launch of GoChi: The Next Generation of Himalayan Goji Juice! For thousands of years, the goji berry has been revered throughout Asia for its unmatched ability to promote health and to balance the body’s energies, especially the “vital life force” known as chi. Today, FreeLife has captured the awesome chi power of goji, and you will find it in every bottle of GoChi. GoChi contains all of the goodness of our original product, and a whole lot more.

Developed with the input from scientists around the globe, GoChi represents a revolutionary advance in the goji and nutritional beverage category. Here’s why:
1. GoChi contains at least 30% more polysaccharides (the active ingredient) than our original formula
2. GoChi is preservative free
3. GoChi is certified kosher for our Jewish friends
4. GoChi is certified halal for our Muslim friends
5. GoChi is favored 4 to 1 in blind taste tests over our delicious-tasting original formula
6. Most importantly, GoChi is backed by a rigorous, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study demonstrating its powerful benefits. And the results are quite startling.
What do words like “rigorous,” “randomized,” “double-blind,” and “placebo-controlled” really mean?

They mean that this study has been subjected to an extremely high standard of testing and evaluation used by science, worthy of publication in scientific journals.

Think for a minute about all the exotic juice products in the marketplace. Some have been very successful over the last few years despite the fact that they have virtually no real science behind them. The study on GoChi represents a monumental leap in the entire juice category because we believe it raises the credibility of this product to a standard never before seen in the juice industry.

For four years, we have talked about why Himalayan Goji Juice will become a billion-dollar brand. We cited four key areas:
1. The great history of the goji berry dating back thousands of years;
2. The great taste of our product that even children enjoy;
3. The tremendous results our Customers feel almost immediately in a wide range of health areas; and
4. The incredible science behind this berry. If you put the Latin name of goji—Lycium barbarum—in pubmed.org, you’ll now find 91 studies published on this miracle berry.

But now, with the release of GoChi, we have taken the science to a whole new level with our own clinical research specifically on our product. No other goji product that we know of can make that claim.

Breakthrough Goji Study Released!

Here is what we did. We had a team of scientists take two groups of people. They gave one group 4 ounces of GoChi each day. Then the other group, called the placebo group, was given 4 ounces a day of a juice that looked and tasted just like GoChi, but with one very important difference: It did not contain any of goji’s active ingredients found in GoChi which are called bioactive polysaccharides. Here’s the key: Neither test group knew whether they were drinking the real GoChi or the fake juice. Nor did the scientists know which group was drinking the real GoChi juice or the placebo! In the scientific world, this is called a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, and it is the Gold Standard for high-quality research studies.

For a full two weeks before the start of the study, and during its entire duration, the participants were instructed to refrain from the use of goji products, dietary supplements, energy drinks, or green tea. That way, we could be certain that any positive results would be a direct result of drinking GoChi. In practice, it can be very difficult to ask people to change their habits and preferences just because they are participating in a clinical study, and yet it is essential that they play by the rules in order to ensure a fair and honest result. Also, it is important that everyone who starts the study remains committed to finishing it, because a high dropout rate can skew the results. For these reasons, we selected 35 of our employees at random to participate. This is standard practice for clinical trials, and it enabled us to monitor the study more effectively. The randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled design of the study ensured that the results were absolutely fair and beyond reproach. Also, this study will be published in a peer-reviewed journal later this year—yet another indication of how valid the study is.

The results of the study noted below are currently only approved to be used for marketing purposes in the United States and Puerto Rico. As GoChi is released in other markets around the world, please check your country specific website to see what claims your governmental agencies will allow FreeLife to make regarding GoChi and the new study.

The first thing studied was fatigue because that’s become a chronic and serious problem in modern society. The placebo group found no statistically significant benefit. But the GoChi group showed a statistically significant improvement.

The next thing to be tested was energy levels during the day. As you would expect from the fatigue scores, the placebo group had no statistically significant improvement. But the GoChi group experienced an energy lift throughout the day. And it’s important to note that GoChi contains no caffeine or any other stimulant.
For athletic performance, the placebo group showed no significant difference, yet the GoChi group showed a significant improvement.

The researchers also tested stress levels and calmness. Once again, the placebo group showed no significant difference, yet the GoChi group showed significant improvements, feeling calmer and less stressed. This benefit alone will positively impact the lives of millions of people who are not experiencing a good quality of life due to increased stress.

We also found that there were significant improvements in mental function. The researchers tested for mental acuity and the ability to focus. Again, the placebo group showed no significant improvement, but the GoChi group showed a substantial improvement in those areas.

The researchers had heard reports that people were sleeping better when drinking our goji juice, so they tested for quality of sleep and ease of waking up in the morning. The placebo group had no statistically significant difference in these areas, but the GoChi group had a tremendous difference in both the quality of sleep and the ease with which they wake in the morning. In fact, 80 percent of the GoChi drinkers reported better quality of sleep, and 70 percent reported a refreshed and easier awakening.

When asked how healthy and content they felt, the placebo group noticed no statistically significant difference, but the GoChi group noticed a significant improvement, feeling both healthier and more content. The GoChi group also noticed a much better improvement in feeling happier than did the placebo group.
Finally, in a big surprise to the researchers, the GoChi drinkers noticed a significant improvement in bowel regularity, while the placebo group noticed no difference.

The GoChi Effect
Together, we call these 13 benefits The GoChi Effect.

One of the lead researchers from the University of California at Irvine, who is on our Scientific Board, noted that each one of these findings for the GoChi group was statistically significant, which in the scientific community means this study is on very solid ground with a confidence level between 90-99 percent! And he also found that the placebo group had no statistically significant difference in 12 out of the 13 areas tested. So there are two amazing ways to look at this study. One is that the GoChi group was far superior to the placebo group in all 13 areas. A second way to look at it is that the GoChi group had a statistically significant benefit in all 13 areas, while the placebo group had no statistically significant benefit in 12 out of 13 areas. In our sales aids, you will see that we will refer to these magnificent results in both ways.

We have already performed one controlled follow-up study which showed similar results. We are doing further follow-up studies which will be released in the future. This study was just released yesterday and we’re the first ones to announce it. As mentioned, it has recently been submitted for publication to a peer-reviewed scientific journal, and we are expecting it to be released later this year.

I truly believe this product and this study puts us far ahead of the competition. Why? Because we have taken one of the most successful products in the history of Direct Sales and we have made it FAR, FAR more effective! We have taken the magic of the goji berry, the polysaccharides, and we have increased their levels by more than 30 percent over Himalayan Goji Juice. This is such a significant development because it is the standardization of our polysaccharides that make Himalayan Goji Juice so unique, and we have now taken that process to a whole new level with GoChi. It’s kind of like taking a world championship basketball team and adding to that team Michael Jordan in his prime years. You’re taking the best and making it infinitely better.

Goji Dog Presents -Beautiful, Healthy Hair on a Small Budget!

2008-01-07T09:51:00.000-08:00

Women’s hair catches a truly raw deal. Every woman wants beautiful, shimmering hair that will turn heads, but in trying to do so they actually damage their hair and take out all of the ingredients that allow your hair to naturally shine at its best. Drying, curling, wet-brushing, and other common styling practices take out all of those essential vitamins and minerals and leave you with dry, unattractive hair. A lot of people are now looking for simple, effective ways to put back all of things that get taken out of their hair, and fortunately, this isn’t hard! There are a lot of great things you can do to improve your hair’s appearance, and here we’ll focus on how to fix your dry, brittle, damaged hair with simple ingredients you’ll probably find around your house.

1. Olive oil. Its in most kitchens, but oddly enough it also deserves a place in most bathrooms as a hair care product. Dry hair is lacking the oils that it needs to keep itself healthy and moisturized, and olive oils are perfectly prepared to put all those wonderful oils right back into your hair. Simply warm up enough olive oil to cover your hair thoroughly, and apply it to your hair. Wrap a plastic bag around it to make it a less messy experience and follow up with a nice warm towel around the bag. Your hair will be soaking up all that needed moisture, and moisturized hair is always more brilliant and beautiful.

2. Mayonnaise is another kitchen item that’s great for hair. Although it may sound odd, mayonnaise is actually quite well known as an effective hair treatment. It just so happens that mayonnaise is loaded with the vitamins, fatty acids, minerals and protein that is extremely beneficial to hair and that gives it a brilliant, lush quality. It’s important that you also make sure to avoid using products like Miracle Whip – you want only 100% real mayonnaise, so make sure you look for it. When applying it to your hair, put it on rather thick. The goal is to soak each and every individual strand of hair. Then just wrap it up in your plastic bag and then follow up with a warm towel, and let your hair soak it up for about 15 minutes!

3. Finally, we come to eggs. Eggs are perfect because hair is, at a basic level, constructed of protein. As a great source of pure proteins, eggs can help you avoid or alleviate any deficiency in protein, which can cause damaging, weakness, and dull, brittle hair. It’s important that you get plenty of protein in your diet to keep your hair (and body) healthy, but a mask of eggs can help replenish and revitalize your hair as well. Look online for great recipes – most of them are very simple to make and use!

As you can see, our three key weapons for the battle of beautiful hair really are actually quite similar to what our hair needs and is made up of naturally. – Proteins, like the collagen that forms each strand, and oils, like our scalp creates! Try and experiment, have fun with it! Taking even one night a week just to pamper your hair can make all the difference in the world in its health, beauty and shine. Having beautiful hair does not have to be hard; it doesn’t even have to be time consuming. – Taking care of your body inside and out is the key to achieving gorgeous hair.

Don't Let Your Child Fall Into the Fat Trap - by Goji Juice Dog

2007-12-30T22:04:00.000-08:00

Childhood obesity is a serious topic that needs to be discussed with parents. It is an epidemic that is reaching massive proportions – children are larger than ever before, and even young children are becoming clinically obese. When you really stop and consider this, it becomes increasingly clear how absurd and damaging this is. In their youth children grow faster and have faster metabolisms than at any other point in their lives – at this stage, they are able to burn fat and maintain a healthy weight the easiest. Because of this, it takes an extreme amount of unhealthy food consumed in massive quantities to create a child who is obese, yet this is becoming more and more common as time goes on.

The first step in solving this problem is recognizing who’s to blame. It’s not the children – they are never going to be concerned with their health, and don’t know any better. It is the responsibility of parents to ensure that their child is being raised with healthy eating and exercising habits to reduce their risk of unnecessary illnesses in their lives. By making sure that your child is eating right and leading an active lifestyle you can make an extraordinary impact on their future. Countless serious diseases can be avoided by a healthy lifestyle, and it is never easier to adopt one than when a person is young. Parents must realize that they have to step up and take a constructive, active role in the health of their children.

It shouldn’t come as any surprise when I say that one of the biggest contributors to childhood obesity is diet. The food you put into your child’s body gets used up and absorbed, so if you are making sure they eat healthy and nutritious meals, their body is going to function well. – Of course, if you are feeding your children fattening slop, their body is not going to have the proper vitamins or nutrition that it so desperately needs. Obesity is the very result of improper nutrition taken to the extreme. Good nutrition for children is much more critical than for any adult, as their bodies are developing and growing. – Good food will help them to develop into a normal adult. Of course, if your child isn’t used to eating nutritious food, you must introduce it slowly, but the best way to avoid your child eating junk food is to associate healthy foods with “snacks”. Fruit is perfect for this, and by substituting more fattening foods with it, you are ensuring that they’ll grow up with a healthy sense of what they should be eating.

Children’s bodies burn energy at a very efficient rate. They are growing rapidly, and while this means that is more difficult for them to put on weight than an adult, they still need plenty of regular exercise. A child who is active is much less likely to develop circulatory diseases later on in life, and they will usually have an easier time losing weight and maintaining proper levels of fitness. Fortunately, this is one of the easiest things as a parent you can do. Kids are bursting with usable energy; they simply need a way to use it. If you can become involved and play active games with them or teach them sports, they’ll be off of the sofa in no time. Teach them tennis, ping-pong, hackey sack, basketball, or simply go on bike rides with them. There are many things you and your child can do that will bring you closer together while strengthening their heart and preparing them for a better future.

Remember that, as a parent, you are responsible for your child’s health and well being. The biggest mistake a parent can make is by being a poor role model for them. Because of this, taking a more active stance on physical fitness in your own life is often the most powerful way you can influence your child. It’s also important that you do not ignore your child’s diet and exercise – this is the mistake most commonly made by parents. You may think that whatever you feed them will work, but that is not the case. With just a little effort, you can pick out healthy foods they will love, and change their lives for the better. The bottom line is that your child’s health rests in your hands, and you have the power to help mold them into healthy, active adults and you can reduce their risk of debilitating health-related illnesses.

Himalayan Goji Juice - Why It's So Valuable and Good!

Goji (Juice) Dog Presents Get Gorgeous Hair In Only Six Steps

2007-12-16T14:26:00.000-08:00

This is one of a series of articles to help you improve your life. This one is geared toward the females in the audience and features 6 steps to more beautiful hair.

What woman doesn’t want her hair to look as perfect as in the hair commercials? After all, there are few things more beautiful than shiny, healthy, silky hair. Fortunately, Photoshop isn’t the only way to achieve pretty, silky hair. Let’s talk about six different steps you can take to get your hair looking and feeling healthier and shinier.

1. First, we have to help you avoid actually damaging it. The first thing you need to avoid is using a brush on it while it is still wet. When it’s wet, it isn’t as strong as when it is dry, and a brush is too rough for it to handle, and will only cause damage that will show up later. When detangling your wet hair, stick with a nice, wide-tooth comb – this is much easier on your hair. Also use a good leave-in conditioner, to help make it a little more durable.

2. Blow dryers are every woman’s dream. – They’re perfect for styling, smoothing, and drying anyone’s hair. But the downside is that they are very damaging. While you may never want to give up your hair dryer, make sure never to dry your hair completely. Leave a bit of moisture left in your hair, and also make sure to use the dryer’s “cool” setting as often as possible, as the lack of heat is much less damaging.

3. Everyone knows that a head full of shiny hair is just gorgeous. Unfortunately, the simple build up of hair care products and normal, day-to-day living can dull your hair out and take away that glamour. To combat this, use an apple cider vinegar rinse on your hair about once a week. Simply mix roughly one or two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar with about four cups of water, and then pour it over your hair. This is a great way pull away all that residue that’s been dulling your hair, letting your natural color and shine come out. It gets rid of grime, and is completely natural. It doesn’t smell that great when you put it on your hair in the shower, but after you’ve dried your hair, the smell will be gone and nothing but pure shine will remain.

4. Contrary to what a lot of products say, there is no way to seal or fix split ends. If you notice any split ends on your hair, go in and get them trimmed off. Keeping split ends can result in the split gradually moving up the hair shaft, making your hair look and feel very damaged. Even if you’re growing your hair out, it’s a good idea to go in and get your ends trimmed every so often to keep it looking its best.

5. Moisturizing is a good way to keep your hair healthy and vibrant, and fortunately, it’s a very simple, enjoyable process. Homemade moisturizing masks do a very good job, and they can be made from ingredients that can be found in your very own kitchen. They can be a lot of fun to make and apply, so go do a search some recipes, and select the one that’s perfect for your hair needs.

6. Hair care is not just on the outside. The healthier you are, the healthier your hair tends to be as well, and fortunately there are some great vitamins you can add to your diet that will enhance the quality and health of your hair. Vitamins A and C have antioxidants that are very beneficial to the health of your hair, and vitamin E helps to enhance circulation around your scalp. Vitamin B6 can help to prevent hair loss and to create melanin, which will aid in keeping your hair color richer and more vibrant. Add these to your diet, and you’re sure to have some beautiful hair.

The key to naturally beautiful hair is making sure it is kept strong and healthy. Every hair color, style, length or type will benefit when you treat it properly. Hair care is something that is easy to promote, and can be achieved by making just a few little changes or additions to the way that you style and take care of your hair. All of those simple little steps will quickly add up over time, and with little effort you’ll have shiny, radiant hair, naturally!

Self Defense Tips For Women Plus Goji Juice

2007-12-11T20:41:00.000-08:00

Unfortunately today, being assaulted by a sexual predator is something that can happen to any woman. Knowing what to do in case you’re ever attacked can be the difference between life and death, and it’s more important now than ever that you learn some key tips for escaping a predator’s grasp. Fortunately, there are a lot of things you can do to fight back and get away from an attacker. Our goal here is to keep in mind that you’re not out to kill him, just to find a moment that you can get away and find help.

Ideally we never want any attacker to get his hands on you in the first place. By appearing cool, confident and calm, you come across as far less attainable to any predator. – Most attackers want an easy victim, and seeming nervous, lost or frightened makes anyone look like an easy catch. Pay good attention to your surroundings, memorize exits, and keep your head up. Take note of any strangers that may appear suspicious to you, and always listen to your gut feelings. Try not to ever be alone, but if you have no other choice, make sure to stay in well-lit and well-populated locations.

There are also a several things you should keep in mind when parking your car. If you’re parking somewhere at night, always make sure to put your car underneath or very close to a light source and as close to the building as possible. Make sure to keep your vehicle out of shady or hidden areas, and keep the sharp end of your key sticking out between your fingers. – This is a better weapon than nothing if worse comes to worse. Also, don’t ever park next to, or walk alongside, a van that has sliding doors. These doors make it much easier to be able to reach out and snatch up a person with little notice.

Now let’s create a hypothetical situation here: You are in a public place, and a man has jumped you. He’s got some form of weapon pressed into your back, and is threatening to kill you if you don’t leave somewhere with him. – The action you take here is absolutely of utmost importance. Never, ever let a predator get you to another location. Let’s face it: If the man is really that willing to kill you there in public, once he gets you somewhere else, your chances are that much lower. Instead of complying to his demands, scream, kick, make absolutely as much noise and commotion as possible. Your attacker is already going to be on edge, because of course he does not want to be caught, and once he realizes that you’re not about to be taken without a fight, there’s a fairly decent chance that he’ll run off and try to flee.

Let’s suppose, however, that he doesn’t run. Instead, he may panic and try to snatch you away or push you into his car. This is where it is important that you fight back. Do not by any means give in to him. He’s going to have an advantage in strength over you, but there are a lot of ways you can cause him harm and make his job a lot harder. One good trick is to try and head-butt him with your forehead to shock him into letting you go, giving you an opportunity to get away. Pull your head back, and act exactly as if you were sneezing, thrusting your forehead into his. Also, you can do what is called the doorknob – grab either his nose or ears, and twist them with all your might exactly as you would a stuck doorknob. This is going to cause intense physical pain, and the chances of him keeping his grasp on you are slim. You’re looking for any opportunity at all to get away and run as fats as you can. Kick, scream, bite, and try to poke his eyes out. Do whatever it takes.

If a man decides to kidnap you, the last thing you ever want to do is give in. Just because he’s larger and stronger than you doesn’t mean you can’t get away. Keep these things in mind, and be prepared should anything happen. It’s a good idea to practice these routines regularly, and make sure you never let your guard down in public.

A Down Syndrome Boy Who Isn’t Handicapped Plus the Goji Dog

2007-12-07T07:01:00.000-08:00

I found the following article by Cole Carson. This article is not intended to be judgmental of anyone. It is only intended to inspire and help people be the best they can be. Let me warn you - this article is probably not politically correct, however, well you be the judge and I hope this helps you to be the best you can be. And in reality I don't want to ever view anyone as being handicapped, everyone is an incredible individual capable of accomplishing great things. I hate to put the label of handicapped on anyone.

---------------------------
Article by Cole Carson
You know, our culture puts a lot of emphasis on negative things and bad people, but I found something the other day that was amazingly positive and that I feel needs to be talked about. I stumbled upon the home-grown web site made by a boy of about twenty years of age who was born with Down Syndrome, as well as several other birth complications. He rides bikes, speed skates, rock-climbs, plays sports, works on cars, and does countless other amazing things that many of us can only imagine. As I looked through his site, I found a wonderful sticker on his car that said “Powered by an extra Chromosome!” This made me smile, as well as drop my jaw in awe.

Here was a person whom everyone in the world would consider handicapped doing things that even I couldn’t do. He was a person with natural determination and resolve like I had seen in few people in my life. This kid literally knew how to do nothing but set goals and achieve them, regardless of how much work was involved. He worked hard every day to make sure no one thought he wasn’t capable or handicapped, proving that he could do anything that any other person could do.

Just a few days later I took a trip to my local Wal-Mart. As I was about to make my way inside, I noticed a car pulling into the closest space reserved for handicapped people. The driver was a woman who looked about thirty-five years old. She had the handicapped sticker, tag, the whole nine yards, and I was amazed as I saw her step out of her car unaided and walk right past me into the store. She seemed to have little problem getting around, and soon began searching through the shopping carts. It soon became obvious to her that what she was looking for was not there, and she confronted the greeter about it. She asked for an electric cart, claiming that her legs grew painful if she had to stand on them for any length of time. The greeter, of course, had a cart brought to her immediately, and she drove on into the store with her purse sitting in the little basket mounted on the front.

This, of course, was unsettling to me. Out there somewhere was a young man that had been born with Down Syndrome, someone who had more obstacles to overcome than most of us have ever even seen, and he was most likely riding a bike or working hard at his job. Almost everything this boy wanted in his life was certainly made more difficult by this birth defect, and yet he thrived, he persevered. And here, at Wal-Mart, was a woman, an apparently normal woman, with a handicapped license tag, a handicapped sticker and parking pace, and an electronic scooter. – She was proclaiming herself handicapped to the world, and all because of some pain in her leg.

There is a serious attitude problem out there today. More and more I notice people wanting to be victims. People who will desperately try to find any reason that things should be made easier on them because they feel like they “deserve” it. I notice more and more handicapped stickers on cars with owners in their thirties or forties. People want everyone else, on one hand, to give things to them and apply a different set of standards because they claim to have a “disability.” They want people to look down on them and pity them, and that makes no sense to me. I don’t ever want anyone to pity me, or feel like I need their handouts.

I know that in my heart of hearts there are very few truly handicapped or disabled people in this world. The only handicap I ever see is a poor mindset and way of looking at things. That young man with Down Syndrome is one the very least handicapped people I have ever even heard of. Not a thing on this earth isn’t there waiting for him, and it’s all because he has a willingness and a determination to earn everything he’s got, and prove to the world that he not only isn’t handicapped, but exceptional. In this boy, there is a very crucial lesson that this world needs to learn. Any person who wants to be handed things, any person who feels that because they are “disabled’ life should be easier for them, they need to grow up, wake up, and get themselves some dignity.

I believe that all of us are capable of amazing things. People do inspiring things every day by simply being themselves and trying to do their very best at everything they do. When a person decides that they are going to overcome the obstacles in their way and that no one is ever going to look at them as less capable, miraculous things happen. That boy with Down Syndrome, for example, has left a lasting impression on me that makes me want to do everything I can to the best of my abilities. When people look at me, I don't want them to see my shortcomings – I want them to see my abilities, my achievements, and the things that I am capable of.

I charge the rest of the world to get off of their butts and be the people that God made them to be. Right now there is a kid with Down Syndrome overcoming the odds and doing things that people have for all his life told him he couldn’t do, so why can’t others? If you really care about yourself, stop asking what other people are going to do to make your life easier, and start finding ways to work around your problems and overcome your obstacles. The world will look at you differently, and you will be surprised at who you’ll inspire.

Himalayan Goji Juice - Why It's So Valuable and Good!

Weight Loss in Five Easy Steps Plus the Goji Dog

2007-12-03T21:35:00.000-08:00

Weight Loss in Five Easy Steps an Article by Cole Carson,

It’s easier than ever to gain weight. Our lives are constantly becoming less physical, as the need for convenience and ease is met with advances in technology. At the same time our diet is suffering from high-fat greasy foods and genetically altered food products. Combine these together, and its’ easy to see why the pant size of Americans are growing by the inch. Fortunately for all of us, there actually are very convenient, plentiful ways to counteract those pesky pounds, and here are five great ways of doing just that.

1. Starting small, a great way to help you keep weight off is to brush your teeth after every meal. Part of the weight-gain problem is that we often eat when we aren’t hungry – we’ll snack out of simple boredom. Brushing your teeth after each meal is great for your smile, but more importantly, that fresh, clean feeling sends signals to your body that the time to eat is over. You won’t be as likely to put those little fat-building snacks in your mouth between meals, and you can be sure to be cavity free!

2. Many people underestimate the importance of water. Water is necessary for your body to function properly, and you need at least a few glasses of water a day to give your body what it needs. Water can also help you lose weight. By replacing all of those soft drinks and coffees throughout the day with water, you can eliminate as many as 245 needless calories or more from your diet. Water also does a good job of flushing from your body toxins and excess waste that it doesn’t need. You’ll also find yourself with more energy for longer periods of time, and you won’t find yourself hit with thirst so often.

3. Breakfast is a very important meal, and as you can guess, is the one most likely to be skipped on by Americans. We generally have busy mornings and opt to pass up on breakfast for a little more sleep or time to ourselves in the morning. This is a very bad thing, because this means our appetites will be greater throughout the rest of the day, and the later in the day you eat, the less time you give your body to burn off the calories. Eating in the evening causes your body to have to store all of that food away as fat, which puts on the pounds. Spend a little extra time in the morning eating a big, healthy breakfast, and you’ll find that you actually can lose weight by eating!

4. It’s no secret that we eat far more food than we need. We are a culture that is obsessed with food, and we pack in more than our bodies can possibly handle. If you want to lose weight, the first thing you have to do is cut down on your portions. As a general rule, when you get a plate of food, discard between a quarter and a third of it before you even sit down. It may be painful to do so, but the bottom line is that you don’t need all of that extra food. Your body won’t be able to burn that many calories.

5. When most people think of exercise, they imagine push ups, trips to the gym, jogging, or other intensive forms of exercise that are difficult to start and take a lot of effort and discipline to stick with for any length of time. Fortunately, all of that is really not necessary for losing weight. Walking is one of the most efficient fat-burning exercises on the planet, and it can be done anywhere you are. Walk around the office, take the stairs, and go out of your way to get the steps in. If you really want to lose weight, start walking every single day for extended periods. Any good long walk is beneficial, but it is generally recommended that you take 30 to 45 minute trips to lose those pounds.

It’s a fact that big things can only be accomplished by starting small, and that the fastest way to get anywhere is by taking a lot of small steps. Remember all of the small things that are contributing to your weight, and go about fixing them. Follow these handy tips and others like them, and you’ll be amazed at how simple losing weight can be.

Himalayan Goji Juice - Why It's So Valuable and Good!

Himalayan Goji Juice and Gratitude at Thanksgiving

2007-11-05T07:34:00.000-08:00

What would you do? The following is an example of how much of the rest of the world lives. We live in such an abundant country and yet many people in this country don’t realize how much they truly have. If they would only look at people in other countries around the world. Especially as we near this time of Thanksgiving, we should reflect on all we have to be thankful for. Have an attitude of gratitude.

The following is from a letter from Ray Faltinsky, CEO of Freelife.

Dancing in the Rain

Dear Friends,
They stood nervously at the podium at our Convention in Orlando.
Through their tears they talked of how much they had wanted to build a FreeLife business. Friends deserted them. Family shunned them. There was little encouragement.
They had sold their wedding rings to purchase enough Himalayan Goji Juice to start their business and survive for a few months. “In the end, we only had each other,” she said.

Then, I sat in amazement as they expressed gratitude and appreciation for FreeLife, Himalayan Goji Juice, their Organization, and the fact that they had now joined our worldwide family of Ambassadors.
In the audience of thousands, Filipino flags waved, their friends cheered them on, and the FreeLife Family gave them a standing ovation.

I believe their gratitude and appreciation was a function of their service and their sacrifice. Indeed, it is both service and sacrifice that makes gratitude so meaningful. The willingness to sell a wedding ring to make a dream come true lays the foundation of gratitude for the success that follows.

As we celebrate a national day of Thanksgiving in the United States, I thought you might enjoy this story about choosing to be thankful for what we have.

There once was a woman who woke up one morning, looked in the mirror, and noticed she had only three hairs on her head. “Well,” she said to herself, “I think I’ll braid my hair today.” So she did, and she had a wonderful day.

The next day when she woke up and looked in the mirror, she saw that she had only two hairs on her head. “Hmm,” she said. “I think I’ll part my hair down the middle today.” So she did, and she had a grand day.

The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror, and noticed that she had only one hair on her head. “Well,” she said, “today I’m going to wear my hair in a ponytail.” So she did, and she had a fun, fun day.

The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror, and noticed that there wasn’t a single hair on her head. “Yeah!” she exclaimed. “I don’t have to fix my hair today!”

Happiness is never a numbers game. It isn’t about “how much,” but rather the way you look at how much you have.

Gratitude is always a function of attitude.
Often, great sacrifice brings forth great love and with it wonderful feelings of thanksgiving and appreciation.

Everyone experiences storms in their lives. Thunder rolls, lightning strikes, and skies darken. However, as someone said:
“Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass … it’s about learning to dance in the rain.”

With love and appreciation,
Ray

The Oprah Winfrey Show Recommends Goji to NBA Player.

2007-10-02T20:08:00.000-07:00

Goji just yesterday was given and unsolicited, unpaid endorsement on the Oprah Winfrey Show. This is a tremendous thing. Consider that Oprah is the highest paid TV star by far and when an endorsement comes out of this show by a leading Medical Doctor it carries considerable weight. Nobody is going to risk their credibility on National TV by in effect endorsing something they don't highly believe in.

In 2005, the Los Angeles Times raved about the health benefits of the goji berry. In 2006, Time magazine called the "Himalayan Goji Berry the Superfruit of the Year!" But yesterday, it got even better. The Oprah Winfrey Show, the highest-rated talk show in television history, recommended goji to Chicago Bulls leading scorer Ben Gordon to maintain high energy levels and not crash after working out. They called the goji berry, "…the most potent antioxidant fruit that we know."

As the category creator of the goji berry and the number one goji company in the world, we were thrilled with this unsolicited, unpaid endorsement of goji. We saw the great momentum created in our business that occurred after the Los Angeles Times article and the Time magazine piece. We believe this recommendation on The Oprah Winfrey Show is unprecedented in the Direct Sales industry and will help us to spread the good news of Himalayan Goji Juice around the world faster than ever before. Congratulations, everyone. Spread the word!

Blog Post - The Difference Between Goji and Other Juices (Noni, Mangosteen, Etc)

The Difference Between Goji and Other Juices (Noni, Mangosteen, Etc)

2007-09-23T21:27:00.000-07:00

I’m often asked what's the difference between goji juice and all those other health juices on the market like noni, mangosteen, acai and others. Well all those other juices other than goji come from tropical fruits. Consider what happens to tropical fruits when the temperature gets below 30 degrees (freezing), the plant or tree dies. With goji when the temperature goes well below freezing it thrives.

In fact the more you stress the goji plant with high temperatures or low temperatures or whatever other stress factor, the goji builds up more of the beneficial lycium barbarum polysaccharides in order to protect itself.

In fact goji in some ways is an intelligent plant. It somehow is able to sense for example if there is harmful mold in the soil and increase its production of the lycium barbarum polysaccharides to protect itself. This in effect is like its defense system. The best part is these lycium barbarum polysaccharides when you ingest them work to provide you great health benefits. This is why the true goji is able to deliver more health benefits to you than these other health juices.

Now the goji berry will grow virtually anywhere, however the less stressful its growing conditions the less of the beneficial lycium barbarum polysaccharides it seems to produce. This is also why Freelife's Himalayan Goji Juice is far the best goji juice on the market as they are the only company that has developed a method to screen the goji berries and be able to measure the lycium barbarum polysaccharides in the berries. Thus insuring you that you get the highest concentration of the beneficial lycium barbarum polysaccharides possible.

Starfish Throwers are the Reason we Market Himalayan Goji Juice

2007-09-08T08:26:00.000-07:00

Starfish Throwers, Fred Rogers and Himalayan Goji Juice

Greetings everyone - wow what a wonderful day! I just returned from a walk on the golf course right behind our house. I talked to a couple of gents who were setting up a drink machine on the 14th tee getting ready for a tournament. Everyday is a new day and an opportunity to make a difference in someone's life. We never know who it may be, that's just part of the excitement of sharing Himalayan Goji Juice with others.
The point is if each day is not an exciting adventure of sorts, well you could use a wakeup call. When you're trying to make a difference like in sharing Himalayan Goji Juice with others, you're in effect planting seeds. Some of those seeds will bear tremendous fruit, others will lie dormant for many years before taking root, other seeds will simply die. Here's the rub though, you don't know which seeds will grow and which ones won't. So you just keep planting seeds, never knowing whose life you'll make a tremendous difference with, just like the starfish in the story below.

The following is a letter from Ray Faltinsky CEO of Freelife.

It's You I Like

Dear Friends,

You've all heard the story.

It is powerful in its simplicity and its message.

Every afternoon, the young boy walked along the beach where he lived. One day, he noticed that when the tide went out, there were many starfish left stranded on the beach, only to die before the water returned.

The young boy began to pick them up and throw them back into the water. There were so many. However, he did what he could.

One day, an old man walking the beach paused and observed the boy as he threw the starfish back into the ocean. He confronted him and asked him what he was doing. The boy did not answer. The old man turned him around to look down the beach where there were thousands of stranded starfish.

"You'll never make a difference," he said. "There are just too many. Forget about them. Just enjoy your day."

Purposely, the young boy reached down and picked up another starfish. With all of his might he threw it as far as he could into the ocean. Then, he turned to face the old man. As he looked into his eyes he said, "I made a difference for that one."

What a wonderful message that is. You can be the difference that makes a difference!

You can touch someone no one else can. You can show kindness, listen to someone, share a burden, try to understand. You can give the goodness of Himalayan Goji Juice, and the opportunity for financial freedom.

Some of us have even forgotten the thrill of receiving an unexpected letter. There is a sense of eagerness and anticipation as you open the envelope, wondering what is inside, and who has taken time to write you.

I have been so fortunate to have people write to me—people that I have only met once, or perhaps not at all. They have come to one of our Conventions or other meetings. This unexpected treasure came to me several months ago from a young FreeLife Family member. Let me share it with you.

Dear Mr. Raymond,
I love your hair. And, I think you are a really nice man and funny, too. When I am old enough I am going to be with those other leaders on the stage. I am going to hug you because I know that Himalayan Goji Juice is good and I tell everyone about it. I am 14 years old. I wish I was older but I am not. I am going to help people.
Love,
Theresa

There is a fourteen-year-old "difference maker." This little girl is a "starfish thrower." She is going to be the difference that makes a difference. Her short letter inspired me and made me want to do better.

We have so many difference makers in FreeLife. Their service often goes unnoticed because some think, "There are so many starfish, you can never make a difference." The truth is that we always make a difference one person at a time.

You may never know the extent of your influence, or the reach of your service. However, I promise you they will know. Your willingness to help will never go unnoticed.

One of the great starfish throwers was a wonderful man named Fred Rogers. His television program, Mr. Roger's Neighborhood, sent a message of love and service to generations of children.

On one occasion, a little boy in a wheelchair was in the audience. Mr. Rogers went to him and knelt beside him. "Why are you in a wheelchair?" he asked. The little boy said, "Because I was in an accident that broke my spinal cord."

Mr. Rogers said, "What would you like me to do?" The little boy said, "Will you sing with me the song, 'It's You I Like'?"

So together, Mr. Rogers and a little boy sang the words Fred Rogers had written and sang so many times:

It's you I like.
It's not the things you wear,
It's not the way you do your hair—
But it's you I like.

The way you are right now,
The way down deep inside you—
Not the things that hide you,
Not your toys—
They're just beside you.

It's you ... I ... Like!

Thank you for continuing to serve others, and for being the difference that makes a difference.

Love,
Ray

Himalayan Goji Juice a Product with a Foundation of Love

2007-09-02T09:46:00.000-07:00

Often I'm asked how is Himalayan Goji Juice different. I mean with all the other juices on the market (noni, mangosteen, acai, etc) what’s the difference. Aren’t they all the same?

There are a number of things, but I believe the biggest difference with Himalayan Goji Juice is there"s more love built into it than any other product. Here’s one example of why I can say this:

This is a letter from Ray Faltinsky CEO of Freelife.

May I share with you a personal experience?

I wish you could have been there for the toast.

I had agonized over it for several weeks, knowing that I would have an opportunity to tell my lovely wife Tricia what she meant to me. It would be her 40th birthday, a celebration to be shared with family and friends at a beautiful resort overlooking the Pacific Ocean.

How, in a few short words, do you communicate to the love of your life what she means to you after 23 incredible years together?

I think all men share this common dilemma. We are long on feelings, but short on words. So... I struggled.

I was certain of several things. First, no gift I could give her would be as meaningful as the words I would speak. Second, when we met as teenagers, we were both financially "broke," and so it was not material things, but rather the words we shared that began to build a lasting love.

As I searched through our years together, three pivotal moments stood out. They were so clear, so vivid, that I could easily see them before me now, like watching a movie.
The first was when I saw her for the first time. She stepped out of a car-with all of the flawless beauty of youth. Our eyes met, and I thought, "This is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen."

The second occurred some ten years later. I stood nervously in the church. Then the wedding music started. I looked, and there she was, walking down the aisle, and I thought to myself, "I have never seen a more beautiful sight in my life. A pure Angel."

The third occurred the morning of her 40th birthday. She lay on the pillow beside me, and I watched her sleep. As I reflected upon our last 23 years together, I was overcome with feelings of gratitude, appreciation, and love.

She was now the mother of four children and the most supportive wife I could ever ask for. I thought of her patience, her character, her wisdom, and her sacrifices for our family. Complete unconditional love at its best.

Then came this powerful insight: Her beauty was "inside out." As she slept I thought, "She is like a fine wine, now more beautiful than she has ever been-physically, emotionally, and spiritually. I am the luckiest man in the world!"

And so, as unpolished as I'm sure I was, I told her those things in front of our small group. It was a memorable evening.

Some years ago, a person who attended one of our Conventions wrote me a letter and shared these few powerful words:

"I came to Convention to see what it was like. I left Convention seeing what I was like. I could see what I could be if I only tried."

What a rare and wonderful insight. That is one of the reasons I love our Conventions so much. People gain valuable insights about themselves, about others, and about their potential.

Come to Orlando and be with us. And in the process, perhaps you will see that you…

Have incredible potential…

That you can begin again to change your life…

That you are not just a number, or an ID, or an address.

You are an important and beautiful part of our FreeLife Family.

Then, as you sit in our audience, Kevin and I can raise our glass and say, "Here's looking at you. The real you. The most service-oriented beautiful group of Marketing Executives of any company anywhere in the world."

I'll be looking for you in September.
Ray

The Power of Love and the Rent We Pay.

2007-08-27T22:04:00.000-07:00

Love is a powerful gift. When we are loved and when we love we summon the power of unselfishness that can brighten up even the darkest of days. We can never give or receive too much love. Here is a personal message of love from FreeLife International's CEO Ray Faltinsky

Dear Friends,
A very wise and spiritual man once said, "Service is the rent we pay for the life we live."
I believe that statement is profound. Life is a precious gift. At FreeLife, we have a principle that we try to practice constantly. It is the principle of "Constant and Never-Ending Improvement."
Similarly, we ought to practice "Constant and Never-Ending Service." Then, the life we are privileged to live takes on such meaning and value.

Young Casey Mayor lay in an Army hospital in Texas. A roadside bomb in Iraq left him with a mangled left leg. He was alone, discouraged, and after 12 surgeries, uncertain about his future.
Then she walked in. She was a secretary at the hospital. She came with movies, small gifts, and home-cooked dinners. She came to cheer him up because he had no family or friends close by.
Nicole Cartmill wanted him to know that somebody cared—and that his service to his country was appreciated. Young Nicole instinctively knew what many people never come to understand in their lives: Service is a verb!

It really is. It is love in action. And often, it is given in small doses over a long period of time. Then, Nicole Cartmill made another discovery: We can never love anyone who we do not serve!
When Spc. Mayor returned home on convalescent leave, he talked with Nicole every day. Finally, he returned to Ft. Bliss, and while still in a wheelchair and in front of a small crowd at an airport in El Paso, Mayor popped the question.

"I told her, ‘I’ve never met someone like you before,’" he said. "She started crying and she said, "YES!"
Last February 13, they married. Then Casey Mayor made this profound observation: "Something so bad turned into something so good."

That’s what service does. It helps bad things become better, eases burdens, lessens pain, and provides a fertile seedbed for love and appreciation.

When you think of how meaningful the first four words of our mission statement are—TO SERVE EACH OTHER—it gives us the opportunity to frame our FreeLife business in an entirely new context. We can truly become a "service" business, reaching out to millions of people who need our help.
We have wrapped our FreeLife business around core principles that encourage us to be of service every day. For instance, consider the all-encompassing Law of Giving. The more of anything you give, the more you get back. Or, how about the Golden Rule that tells us exactly how to treat others? What of the Principle of Abundance that allows us to view the world and people in it with generosity and appreciation?
How about the concept of being a FreeLife Family that we so strongly encourage? Is that not a welcome mat to the wonderful uniqueness that each person brings to us?

In my mind as I write this, I can hear the wonderful chorus of GojiKids throughout the world whose lives have been so blessed because all of you have given so much. Their "silent song" is a testament to the difference that every single bottle of Himalayan Goji Juice can make.

Recently a man approached me in a parking lot as I was sitting in my car. He looked desperate. He plaintively asked, "Do you happen to have any jumper cables? My battery is dead." He was stuck, and I remember that feeling.

So do you. You’ve been stuck before, haven’t you? Not moving forward—in a rut—unable to get enough energy and motivation and desire to fire up your own engine and become the person you know you can be.
I told him I was sorry that I didn’t have any cables with me but I could call a service station for him on my cell phone. Instead, he approached several more cars, finally finding a Good Samaritan who got him going. I saw him shake his hand and open his door with a smile on his face, until his tail lights faded in the distance.

In FreeLife, we ought not to just carry jumper cables in our trunk, but in our hearts. Then we could always give someone a needed boost of enthusiasm, a charge of encouragement, or a helpful push to get them going.

It is so true. Service is the rent we pay.
Love,
Ray

I can say this without reservation - Himalayan Goji Juice is truly love in a bottle. People ask me all the time how is it different than all the other health drink juice products. And the best I can describe it is like this - suppose we were given a drink. Now suppose we were given a drink by someone we cared about who in handing it to us looked us in the eye for a minute and these words came across their lips as they handed us a drink, "I love you won't you please take this drink as a token of my love!" Doesn't the second scenario feel a whole lot different - that is Himalayan Goji Juice - a whole lot different.

Simple Social Experiment and Your Certificate of Greatness

2007-08-12T07:56:00.000-07:00

Here's a simple experiment. I want you - those of you who have any kind of relationship, anything from a friend to a spouse, boyfriend, girlfriend, boss, employee. Do this ask them how you can be of extra help to that person and watch their reaction.

Let me ask you a question – do you like it when someone asks you what is important to you? I’m sure it makes you feel special when someone really pays attention to your wants and desires.

It kind of came to me today. Have you ever been hit by a mental brick? That's a mental brick that hits someone upside the head and gives them a good idea for something.

The mental brick I got hit with had the word encouragement written all over it. I got to thinking, what is the one thing that especially adults don’t get enough of? It’s you guessed it - encouragement. Every person has the ability to accomplish great things - that's right there's greatness within you. But instead of encouraging you to bring out that greatness and let it shine, most people try to drag down others and discourage them and tell them they can't do this or they can't do that.

Well I want to give you a Big Word of Encouragement. I know you'll special and you need to start feeling that you’re special each and every day. We can never be encouraged enough and so I've created for you a Certificate of Greatness. I want you to print it out, fill in your name and carry it around with you, and if anybody ever tries to belittle you or bring you down you can whip it out and show them your Certificate of Greatness. If you ever fill down or discouraged, show yourself your Certificate of Greatness. It's guaranteed to give you an instant pick me up or your money back.

Here's something to think about, if you're reading this you’re my friend. Just a friend I haven't met yet. The point to consider is, "What is a true friend?" Are they someone you just hang around with because you share some simple common interests or are they someone who has your back, someone who will tell you the truth even if it hurts?

Why do most people remain silent when they see a friend engaged in some activity that may harm them self?
Usually it's because their focus is on themselves instead of the other person. It would make them feel uncomfortable to say something to their friend. They would in effect rather their friend suffer through a bad situation than experience the unpleasant situation of saying something which could greatly benefit their friend.

So I ask you a question, what would you rather prefer? "Would you rather be told that the reason you haven't been promoted at work is because of a particular bad speaking habit you have? Or would you rather your friend keep quiet and not say anything so you're never aware of it?"

As a friend that's how I feel about Himalayan Goji Juice. I don't care what people think of me, I've been marketing nutritional products for over 12 years. I've seen and used numerous different products. However, this has been the best of all those products. I’ve had too many people tell me how they’ve benefited from the product, such that I would be remiss in not telling you about it. So as simply one friend to another I recommend you give it a try.

Nutrition Health Goji, Comments, Observations and Skeptics

2007-08-03T13:34:00.000-07:00

General comments observations and more. Have you ever noticed how negative the news reporting is. And it’s not just in one particular area. It could be in anything from the Iraq war to discrimination.

Speaking of discrimination I saw an article discussing the perceived difference in pay between men and women. I’m not here to totally discuss that issue. However, a study by economics professor Linda C. Babcock of Carnegie Mellon University, reported recently in the Washington Post, women may not actually ask for as much money as men. And ultimately this costs them in both starting pay and in earning higher raises.

Babcock and her colleagues observed how men and women reacted when told they would be paid according to a sliding scale. Men were eight times more likely to ask for higher compensation than they were initially offered to participate in a simple experiment.

That’s a little bit off point but I found that quite interesting. And let’s face the facts most employers aren’t likely to offer their employees if they don’t ask anymore than you would volunteer to ask to pay a store clerk more money for an item. So women, start asking for more money.

I guess the old adage is true bad news sells. Thee bad news is how it affects us as consumers. We could hear 10 unbiased stories about how great a product or restaurant is and then if one person says they thought it stunk we tend to believe the person with the negative comments.

Why is this – I think our mind has been programmed to look for negative things. Think about it, not everyone likes everything. Everyone has different tastes so when someone says they didn’t like something why don’t we just chalk it up to their personal taste especially in the light of when 10 other people say they love the product. So who’s right and who’s wrong in this case? Actually none of these 11 people are wrong provided they are being objective and don’t have a prior biased motive behind their statements.

Below are several articles that further investigate negativism and skepticism.

Article the Goji Skeptic

Analyzing Skeptics in Nutrition and Other Areas

Nutrition Skeptics - Are They Always Bad? - An Examination!

Thoughts on why negative skeptics aren't always bad and can even be good. Their published skepticism usually means the product they are being skeptical about is working and it's competition to them.

Whenever a new product comes along it almost always comes out in a niche where there is established competition. Initially smart competitors will ignore the new product, hoping it will never catch on and eventually go away.

Now if it doesn't and the product becomes highly successful competitors who stand to really lose financially will try to discredit the product hoping this will influence people to stop buying it and it will go back to obscurity. Eventually though if that doesn't work competitors will eventually just have to keep quiet or risk appearing to be fools and simply learn to compete. So often when competing interests try to discredit a product it usually means the product is working too well. After all it's usually not necessary to be skeptical about a bad product as it will fail on its own.

Let's examine Himalayan Goji Juice in this light, holy cow for several years now it's been receiving all kinds of positive press. Here are just very short list of them.

Time Magazine in July, 2006 called goji the SuperFruit of the year.

It has been featured on MTV cribs.
New Woman magazine in Australia showed a photo of a bottle of goji juice and proclaimed, "Madonna, Mischa Barton and Liz Hurley can't get enough of the powerful antioxidant-packed...

Goji juice was in Golf Magazine in Australia - with Catherine Zeta-Jones talking highly of it.

Mischa's immaculate complexion is the result of a daily dose of goji juice.

Nobody is going to love everything, no matter how good something is there will always be someone who doesn't like it.

So the point is with Himalayan Goji Juice you have 43 straight months of record double digit sales growth with people raving about the product and a 60 day money back guarantee. I can see some people being skeptical as most people tend to have negative thoughts about things, but on the other hand if I drove by a restaurant everyday for 43 straight months and I saw people standing in line out the door, I might just figure they had a pretty awesome product.

Paradigm Shifts, High Definition Television Adventure and Himalayan Goji Juice

2007-07-08T12:48:00.000-07:00

Let me ask you a question, have you ever had an experience where you tried something new and afterwards you’re thinking, wow this is great, why didn't I ever try this before?

If you're like most of us I’m sure you have, and most likely a number of different times. It could be anything from a movie your spouse had been wanting you to see that you thought would stink only to see it and discover you really enjoyed it. It could be a restaurant you'd been reluctant to eat at.

Think of the first time you saw something in high definition, all of the sudden your regular TV, which you had been quite happy with no longer seemed so great.

Remember the first time you used a high speed modem to access the internet. Your dialup modem didn't seem so bad before, but now it was crap. The same could be said for VHS tapes after the DVD came out, and there are many other examples.

The point is this - life should be an exciting adventure. What makes an exciting adventure, it certainly isn't driving the exact same way to work or eating at the same restaurant all the time. Adventure by it's very nature calls for exploring new things.

I have been around nutritional products for over 12 years. In that time I've never seen a product provide more exciting results than Himalayan Goji Juice. And I've seen hundreds of products. The exciting results I've seen people get with Himalayan Goji Juice with increased energy, vitality and so much more has been amazing.

However, like any great thing like DVD's or high speed internet, or high definition television (hi-def TV) it all starts with being willing to try it. Sometimes it's easy to think you’ll feeling great until you experience something that makes you feel even more energy and vitality. There’s a reason why Himalayan Goji Juice has had 15 straight quarters of record sales growth.- It’s called results - results like you don't experience with products that haven't had 15 straight quarters of record sales growth.

It's because of all the wonderful results people are getting that Freelife offers an unprecedented 60 day empty bottle guarantee, longer than any other nutritional product.

Whatever it is goji juice or something else let your explorer side get the best of you because, "life is a daring adventure or nothing at all."

July 4th Independence Day, It’s A Wonderful Life and Freedoms

2007-07-04T10:26:00.000-07:00

July 4th, 1776 is a special time for all Americans to reflect on what they have, where they’ve been, and where they are going.

Actually July 4th is much more than then just the celebration of an American holiday. Keep in mind the history of the world had been filled with government’s oppression of men. Certainly much more slavery and oppression than freedom and liberty. But on that day in 1776 all would change for that would be the beginning of a nation of freedom lovers putting literally their lives, possessions and honor all on the line, to say to the most powerful nation on Earth enough is enough.

They basically said “We will have liberty and freedom or we will accept death” and most assuredly (all 56 signers) would have been hung or at the very least imprisoned for the remainder of their lives if they had failed.

And now 231 years later people still see America as the beacon of freedom and hope around the world, and that is why so many risk so much to get here. Because their governments are too oppressive and corrupt.

The following is a letter from Ray Faltinsky CEO of Freelife that tells a couple well known stories of Freedom.

"It is Christmas Eve, 1946 and George Bailey is in a dark place. Faced with the loss of his business, he is on the verge of suicide. The prayers of his family and friends alert Heaven to George’s state of mind and Clarence Odbody, an Angel Second Class, is sent to Earth to save George. Clarence later reveals that he is also being tested; after over 200 years of trying, he has still not earned his wings!"

In the last scene of this classic movie, It’s A Wonderful Life, George Bailey (Jimmy Stewart) holds his little girl in his arms, celebrating the freedom the tiny community of Bedford Falls finally has earned from the rich and evil "Mr. Potter."

Amid tears and cheers, everyone is celebrating as George holds his little daughter. Then, there is the unmistakable sound of a bell.

Not a loud bell … a soft bell.

A bell so penetrating that everyone can hear it.
George Bailey’s little girl says, "Listen daddy. Teacher says that whenever a bell rings, an angel gets his wings."
What a wonderful story. A "Second Class Angel" saves a first-class manbrings freedom to a community, and in the process earns his own wings. And a tiny bell rings, honoring the occasion.

Another bell rings loud and clear on July 8, 1776. It is the Liberty Bell ringing out from the tower of Independence Hall summoning the citizens of Philadelphia to hear the first public reading of the Declaration of Independence.

A bell rings, a young nation declares its independence, and people become free. Now, more than a million citizens have earned their wings by giving their lives to preserve the freedoms we hold so dear.
On the Fourth of July, we in America celebrate our cherished freedom. It is fitting that we should do so.
However, we love freedom no more than people in any country. From Canada to Australia, from Mexico to the Philippines, and with all nations in between, we claim freedom as a God-given birthright, as vital and important to our lives as oxygen.

In fact, that is what freedom isit is spiritual oxygen.
We cherish it, fight for it, share it, and breathe in its sweet fragrance.

Perhaps that’s why those of us in FreeLife are so passionate about our opportunity to live the "free life." That’s why we get so excited when we receive a check each month from FreeLife.
It is our check.
It is in our name.
It is our business.

So when you come to our Convention in September, I would challenge you to stop and notice how many people are smiling, how many people are happy, how many people are hugging and embracing each other.

Watch them celebrate each other's success, and shed tears at their stories of victory. See their eyes light up as they hear what Himalayan Goji Juice has done for someone's health. See them glow!
There is something in the air, something tangible and good.
It is the sweet smell of spiritual oxygen.
It is freedom in motion, a group of people with one heart and one mind who want to change the world for good.

And in the process, thousands upon thousands of tiny bells will ring, and people who would never claim to be angelic are being filled with the desire to serve others and bring freedom into their lives.
And if you listen closely... perhaps you'll hear the swish of wings as people go about the most important business in the world, the business of making a difference in the lives of others.

A Story of Perceived and True Value with Two Morals!

2007-06-18T12:03:00.000-07:00

I saw a story the other day dealing with what we value and our knowledge and perception. The story took place many years ago and in a story a rich man had a valuable jewel and he was wanting to educate his servants on how valuable information was still valuable even if it wasn’t seen as valuable in the eyes of the beholder.

The man told one of his servants to take the jewel and show it to a farmer in a field and ask him how much he would be willing to pay for the jewel. Of course the farmer not understanding the value of jewels offered him very little. So he next went to a blacksmith and asked him how much he would be willing to pay for the jewel. And once again the blacksmith like the farmer not understanding the value of jewels offered him very little.

And this went on as he continued to contact many people until he found a jeweler and gem specialist. Because the jeweler understood the value of this precious jewel only he offered the servant what it was worth.

As the moral of the story two principals were at play here or perhaps there are two morals of the story.

One moral was just because someone’s lack of knowledge doesn’t comprehend the value of something. It doesn’t make that object any less valuable. The same is also true with information.

The second moral is our actions and what we are willing to pay and for what determine what we value in life. And have we taken the time to properly value those things.

How much is your family worth to you?
How much is your health worth to you?
How much is having the resources to or being able to make a difference to others worth to you?

I know after reading this story it really got me thinking. What were my priorities?

And my friend what are your priorities?
