This is going to STRETCH you in a big way…

I was deep in meditation this morning when the message I’m about to share with you came through.

I almost didn’t write this, because I was afraid that it might upset you…

But that’s no way to live life is it? Allowing fear to stop you from speaking your truth (and we’ve all let that happen way too many times)…

So I’ll warn you now…this is going to get intense and cause you to stretch your mind a bit…

…But I’m sure you’ll get a lot from (which is always my goal). So here goes.

I believe that life is a series of opportunities. Every moment, you have an opportunity to CHOOSE to take action, breathe, soften, struggle, overcome, or wallow away.

Unfortunately, most will never, ever, embrace how profound this opportunity really is.

Instead, they will become choice-less and succumb to the drudgery of the world around them. They will get beaten down by life. They will  retreat in fear. They will go back into hiding. They will stay small. They will never share their gifts. They will remain a victim to their circumstance.

This might not apply to you….but it probably does.

Why?

Because I’m speaking to myself too.

You see, I’ve experienced some intense struggle and pain in my life, and in my business. In 2008 while I was working 65 hours a week, I was losing money like crazy, feeling totally off-center, struggling, and just about ready to throw up my hands and give up (you know what I’m talking about).

Not to mention the fact that I was well on my way to loosing $80,000 in my business (which completely dwindled away all of my savings) and was close to being about $19,000 in debt.

To top it off, just three days after getting a new car, I got into a pretty bad accident that nearly totaled my new Honda and ended up giving my shady insurance company a loop hole to drop me from their policy…which then turned into the DMV taking my license away (for a whole flippin’ year) because I was supposedly “driving without insurance.”

Now I haven’t shared this story in a long time…

Because it’s pretty embarrassing, and a very dark and intense period in my life.

But here’s the catch….

This is when I decided to put aside my ego, stop pretending that I had all the answers, and start saying YES the opportunities in front of me.

Because before this, I had it all figured it out. I had all the answers. I knew what I was doing. I knew where I was going….

…Or at least, that’s what I thought…

Unfortunately, I was too stubborn, too arrogant, too busy, too broke, too smart, too spiritual, or too whatever else came to mind at the moment of decision, to take advantage of any of the opportunities that were right in front of my face.

But ENOUGH was ENOUGH, and I was ready to put that all aside and get help. And at that moment, I was given the chance to study with one of the greatest marketing coaches in the nation at a weekend seminar…

…costing $3,000 (blasphemous!)…

But I made this commitment to myself, to learn, to grow, to get help…

So I took a huge deep breath, felt my fear, and said YES, putting the entire 3-day opportunity on my credit card with no idea of how I was going to pay it off (or whether it was even the right decision in the first place).

And I’m proud to say that this decision is what caused me to go from being almost $20,000 in the hole, slaving for 65+ hours/week, and feeling very un-clear and un-focused…

…To finishing the year making over $500,000.00, working 40 hours (or less) each week, traveling the world, and feeling all-around powerful, clear, and in the flow.

And when I look at the reason why, I realized that it’s because I decided it was time to stop making excuses as to why I couldn’t do something, why something needed to change before I took action, and why I wasn’t ready…

…and I started saying YES to the opportunities that presented themselves, right in front of me.

…of which there were always many.

But before, I was able to rationalize my lame decisions with thoughts like: “It’s not really going to be that good, or another opportunity like this will come around again soon.

But finally, I suffered enough.

Meaning, I was broke, lost, confused, angry, frustrated, and all around burnt out ENOUGH to finally open myself up to learning a new way of being…

That’s when I made a choice to start saying YES to the opportunities that were right in front of my face.

And my first YES was to that $3000 seminar….

…And OH MAN, it was worth every single penny (and trust me, I was counting).

The changes that took place inside of me, about mindset, money, marketing, business, life, myself, and my purpose….were more profound than words could ever possibly describe.

And it didn’t stop there…

From that point forward, I went to event after event, learning at light-speed and implementing even faster. Then I hired a coach, and another one, and another one, and then another one, and before you knew it, I felt like I had a rocket-ship on my back.

It was kinda funny because before I started down this path, I felt like I didn’t have any clear guidance or direction at all.

Then, at one point, I almost had too much (haha).

Most importantly: I started to get much better results. People started coming to me for business. I got crystal clear on exactly what I was doing. I learned how to show up. I gained some serious momentum.

And I hit, what Malcolm Gladwell describes as “the tipping point“, and WOW what a ride!!

I started selling out events, collaborating with the biggest names in the industry (like Janet Attwood and Cynthia Kersey), making more money than I ever had before, and having the time of my life.

And I was filled with bliss.

All of this happened, without a doubt in my mind, because I started saying YES to the opportunities in front of me.

So let me say something to you in the most direct and up-front way that I possibly can…

YOU HAVE A GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY RIGHT SMACK IN FRONT OF YOUR FACE THAT’S ABOUT TO PASS YOU BY UNLESS YOU DOING SOMETHING ABOUT IT!!!!!

In a few weeks at a beautiful (and quiet) resort in Corona, CA, I’ve brought together THE GREATEST MINDS in our industry to teach you everything they know about making money, being successful, stepping into your power, creating freedom, and making a big impact in the world.

In all my years of attending events, I have NEVER been to one with this amount of high caliber conscious, good-hearted, EXPERT business wizards…EVER!

http://www.EnlightenedEntrepreneurExperience.com

Much less…an event like ours that is private, intimate, deep, connected, loving, and real (meaning it’s not a pitch-fest where one speaker after another gets up just to sell you something).

In fact, none-of-the guest speakers are pitching you anything of their own. We’ve made a strict deal that they are there to teach you, guide you, support you, help you, and hang out with you (how cool is that!).

You will literally be getting their focused attention for 4-straight days. Now tell me, where else in the whole world can you go this level of personalized knowledge and support to help you grow your business now?

Not to mention the fact that we have made it SO EASY for you to join us by offering flexible installment plans (3 small payments), bring a friend specials (so you can split the cost), and we made a deal with Glen Ivy to include 3 organic, home-cooked meals per day as part of your housing package (which is only $125 per night).

PLUS, you get a laser-coaching session with me before you even attend the event so that I can personally look at your business and determine the quickest and most effective way to help you get your message out, help more people, and make more money fast.

The only other people on the planet who get this type of attention are my $20,000 coaching clients…and this bonus is yours FREE when you grab one of the last seats.

So…let me share something with you that I realized this morning when I was thinking about you (yes you, reading this post).

It’s very possible that you might have a legitimate reason for not coming to this next event. Maybe you had prior plans, or you’ve had something special in the works for some time now….and that’s all fine.

But if I was to take a guess, the mass majority of you probably won’t be there because…

…somewhere inside of you, you’re afraid.

…Afraid that you don’t have the money, time, ability, vision, presence, power, clarity, or whatever else you’ve made up in your mind to stop you from coming.

And instead of feeling the fear and doing it anyways, you’re going to let this opportunity pass you by and stay exactly where you’re at.

…At least that’s what’s going to happen to most.

But what if you’re one of the few who DECIDES to step up and say YES to this?

What if you muster up the courage, strength, and gusto to get off your butt and make this happen?

What if this event is the turning point for the rest of your life?

I’ve been to our events, and I know what’s possible.

And guess what? This one will be the best yet.

Guaranteed.

Just look what a few people said about our last one:

Rodney Washington said: “Absolutely one of the most profound experiences I’ve had in a long time.”

Lisa Longo said: “The people that came together were truly some of the most loving and powerful souls I’ve ever met.”

Andrea Dykstra said: “This was THE most inspirational and practical business retreat of my life.”

Please, for your sake, don’t let your small self stop you from getting to this event. Because it’s absolutely inevitable that this LIVE experience, with all of us, will be a MASSIVE turning point for you and your business.

So it’s decision time.

We are not only down to the wire in terms of time, we’re down to the last remaining seats as well.

We intentionally hold our events at private, intimate venues so that everyone has a chance to connect, go deep, and really experience paradigm-shifting breakthroughs.

If you are an entrepreneur, who seeks to make a powerfully positive difference in the world, and create a financially free lifestyle, and do it with with tremendous ease, flow, and fun, all while sharing your gifts and stepping into your power as a leader…

You would be absolutely crazy to miss this event.

  • Focus on THE OPPORTUNITY, instead of the obstacles.
  • Focus on THE PAYOFF, rather than the payment.
  • Focus on TAKING ACTION, instead of wishing and hoping that things will change.

Yes, it can be scary to step into uncertainty, and to move in the direction of your heart…

…And YES, it will be fulfilling beyond your wildest dreams.

Let me be crystal clear and re-iterate what you’ll get when you show up:

+ Intimate private time with Vishen Lakhiani, Alexis Martin Neely, James Roche, Cynthia Kersey, Julia Mikk, and myself…learning the best of the best in cutting-edge business building and life-enhancing knowledge.

+ An opportunity to meet, connect, and develop lasting friendships and partnerships with some of the leading conscious entrepreneurs in the world who will be attending for themselves.

+ Daily yoga, meditation, dance, massage, and other powerful and fun activities to help you clear your mind, unwind any stress or tension, and experience a deep and lasting sense of peace and comfort.

+ Special guided experiences that will both help you embrace your power, presence, and purpose as an authentic leader on this planet, and imprint beautiful memories that will most certainly last a lifetime.

As I’m sure you can tell, this is a very different and unique type of business event. We are only one’s in the world doing it this way. And if you’re into REAL, it will strike a very deep chord with you.

Not to mention the fact that you also have an unconditional, 100% HAPPINESS GUARANTEE, so that you literally have no risk and everything to gain.

So if you know that YOU need to be there (and I think you know who you are), don’t wait. Register right now. We won’t be doing another one of these events until the end of the year, so this opportunity will not come around again soon.

This is your opportunity, looking at you square in the eye.

Take it.

I believe in you….and I’ll see you soon.

Much love,

Max

P.S. Really put things in perspective here. The course is only $997, and you might have to invest a little more for travel and housing.

And consider this: after one event like this, I gained the courage to raise my rates from $200 to $500, in one fail swoop, just like that. So I only needed to pick up one client for three hours to make back my entire investment (which I did within two days of the event)

…Not to mention the fact that I kept earning that for months to come.

That is, until I attended another event and raised my rates to $1,000…which means that one client paid for the entire event (which I often picked up at the event itself).

Could this happen for you? Likely. You just need to show up to make it real.
