So, this is a momentous post for me.

Together, along with some of the greatest leaders I’ve had the joy of working with, I’ve succeeded in something which I set out to do nearly two months ago.

The goal was set.

The timeline was made.

I decided what I would give in order to achieve the goal.

I made a concise statement.

It was written down and put on my computer monitor.

With a white-hot burning desire, it become my laser-like focus every day.

And so, by following those Napoleon Hill’s six steps to success, and applying faith to every action I took, it happened.

Infusion.

Both the Infusion of my faith with action, but also the conception and creation of my first product, Infusion.

You can find it here:

Where there struggles? Absolutely. We had many difficulties to work around, and many tribulations to go through, but I was reminded constantly of something that’s found in “As A Man Thinketh” (one of my all time-favorite books ever) when it came to accomplishment.

There can be no progress, no achievement without sacrifice, and a man’s worldly success will be in the measure that he sacrifices his confused animal thoughts, and fixes his mind on the development of his plans, and the strengthening of his resolution and self-reliance.

and later on…

He who would accomplish little must sacrifice little; he who would achieve much must sacrifice much; he who would attain highly must sacrifice greatly.

So I bring this up, because here are all the things that stood in my way and circumstances that stacked against me…

  • No previous experience in creating my own, original product
  • very little knowledge about making a website
  • never have done any copy-writing
  • lost my entire blog (yes… what you see here disappeared for over a whole day)
  • a merchant account that didn’t accept credit cards
  • websites that wouldn’t link to order pages
  • moving my family from one part of the province, to another
  • extended family telling me that any money I make will be ill-gotten
  • having the new place we were to move in not be available to move into for close to two weeks, so having an impromptu camping trip, recording the bonus video in the middle of a rain storm.

But, had I descended to thinking patterns like, “Oh man… this is way too hard.” or, “why does this always happen to me?” or, “This’ll never work” (which by the way, was my pattern of thinking 12 short months ago….), it would’ve never come together.

What I had stacked in my favor was an unquenchable desire to see you benefit from the content. Infusion will set many people free. It’s not the magic-pill, but it will lead you to your magic pill.

Once you master infusing your faith with your action – and this convergence becomes a daily routine for you, anything you desire: relationships, influence, certainty, security, finances, can all be yours.

Even when circumstances are stacked against you.

Blessings…

And always
