The Law of Attraction worked very well for the dynamic couple of Tony and Bee who have embraced hypnotherapy and NLP to assist and enhance the over 50++ with lifestyle shifts, choices and changes. They have also designed a series of audios to get people to let go of their smoking addictions.
Also magnifying were XL Country Manager and Master Practitioner for Lawyers in the UK Caroline, Master Practitioner for Leader Sue and dynamic virtual office services director Grace.
Memorable mention goes to Kai, from Hong Kong who has launched a sushi take out service in Newport and kindly provided sushi for the event – “oshi katta Kai arigatoo gozaimashita”

Dine and Deal With Dave UK
It was a pleasure and thrill to be in Manchester and share some tips and deal making coaching with the participants in the Dine and Deal with Dave program. This initiative was spearheaded and launched in Christchurch earlier this year along with my dear friend Matthew Faid and supported by super supporter Alika Rai.

The concept is simple, you sign up for a special “Dine and Deal with Dave” lunch through an investment of a nominal amount, say $100, pay for your own lunch and then get ready for an “awesome coaching experience” focusing on your deals. 

The proceeds from “Dine and Deal with Dave” www.dineanddealwithdave.com goes to an organization that feeds children in India. By getting the food, these children also get educated. So in fact, by having a lunch somewhere around the world with Dave, a child in India gets fed and educated for up to a year.

This amazing charity, Mid Day Meal, was selected by Maya Shahani in India and supported as part of the Buy 1 Give 1 global initiative. 

It is my humble goal that by August 2008, the DNDWD program will have contributed funds to nurture 150 kids in India, just by dining!

Thank you to the awesome participants in Manchester:

Dawn – dynamic, action focused, willing to make things happen and a natural deal maker. For the next six months, will be focusing on events in Manchester as well as ways to doing deals in the areas of sponsorship, service enhancers, and the mastery of magnification. A special thanks to Dawn for organizing the lunch and for the awesome support that she personally gave me during my time in the UK!  
Anne – Drink Ethical Coffee, Eat Ethical Foods and make a difference in Tanzania. Time for Anne to magnify her activities through effective networks, key people, allowing people to use her products – Best of Luck to John with the presentation and JP – you rock!

 Michelle – building the team in Manchester – created great attraction with the launch of the momentum concept in Manchester and looking to attract strategic alliances to make Manchester the “Hub for Professional Speaking” in the UK.

Justin – the calming force of Justin added a wonderful dimension to the Dine and Deal session. Joyful, unwavering commitment, sincere, trustworthy, intuitive, nice (perhaps sometimes too darn nice?), if you have requirements for Shopping Cart Solutions for your website or are in the web design space, get in contact with Justin!

Debra – life coaching, networking coaching, communications training, Debra will get you focused, clear, and ready for action! And she will brighten your day, improve communications in your office place and bring innovation and creativity to the workplace. Contact Debra to find out how your firm can get involved in Global Hugs, an international movement to inspire and share HUGS globally.

Mel – marvelous matcher, entertaining& experienced, likeable listener – licensed professional sporting agent in Manchester – an experienced deal maker who is building a team to put 11 Sports on the international scene.

Have a brilliant month ahead and Happy Deal Making!
Cheers,

Dave

KIND THANKS

We had a grand weekend in London with 90+ life members for the XL Entrepreneur Life Shift program. Many thanks to super supporters Mike and Nick and the Triumphant team for ensuring the weekend proceeded in a “smooth and simple” manner.

INSPIRING SHARING

Dr Phyllis shared some of her expertise along with her initiative to develop and train the next generation of micro-financing professionals.

Thalbir and Shira with their passion, compassion and enthusiasm to magnify, lead, and expand humanitarian programs in India.

The XL Ball received wonderful support from Haddie, Harun, Michelle, the ballroom dancing of Mark, and the very inspiring and compelling positioning by legal eagle Caroline. With the big heart, inspiring giving, and fun filled musical endeavors of Mike Fabio along with the noteworthy cause of raising 50,000 pounds for the Hunger Project. If you have not purchased your tickets, pick them up at www.extraordinaryballs.com

Can three stars successful work together? Judging by the synergy of persuasive skills of Harun, the intentionality of well intentioned Naomi, and the internet marketing flair of the “arse hole” marketer Mr F U , Colin Fu, the three stars created some tremendous attraction this weekend for Naomi’s weekend in January as well as raising awareness for the recent Bangladeshi floods by rallying donations for the construction of two houses and several water pumps - Awesome!

AWARENESS

Global Leader facilitator and best selling author Robert from Amsterdam had a number of thought provoking questions including, “Dave, what are the three biggest learnings that you have had to date?”

WOW – what a questions, unfortunately time did run out during the session so i am pleased to answer the question here!

My three top learnings are
#3) Power of Intention - What you focus on will materialize, usually along with the opposite so that you can gain an amazing perspective, awareness, and experience of the duality dance.

#2) The Magic of Now - Let each experience be a discovery, allow the emotions to be triggered and allow yourself the space to experience life to the fullest!  Live in the moment – live with gratitude and be aware that all experiences are triggers to allow us to experience the yin-yang of life.

1) Love all, serve all – the motto of Hard Rock Café and some of the smooth and simple teachings from India.
OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS

Great opportunity knocks from London in the areas of health and wellness, coaching and leadership through step up, groovy crystal studded ear phones, inspiring television, antique furnishings from China, and expansionary opportunities for XL in Europe and Latin America - get ready for XL Brazil!
RESPECT AND ADMIRATION

Heartfelt thanks to all the life members who contributed to a magical weekend in London!

Love and light,
Dave
