Almost everything—all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure—these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.

How to Get Everything

You Want

Many years ago, when I was the editor/publisher of America’s leading business opportunities newsletter, a fellow by the name of Carlton Sheets sent me a review copy of his new No Money Down real estate course. Recently, after watching one of Carlton’s late-night infomercials, I bought his latest course with all the books, CDs, and videos. After all these years, Carlton’s course still teaches the same exceptionally effective methods for acquiring real estate as it did nearly thirty years ago, the only real difference being the teaching tools employed. But…

There have been countless articles written and postings to Internet real estate forums and discussion boards decrying Carlton’s course as a rip-off, stating emphatically that it “can’t be done.” In other words, the writers of those articles and postings couldn’t, wouldn’t, or just didn’t do it.

Counter to those negative “it can’t be done” articles and postings, there are a host of articles and postings giving testimony to the fact that Carlton’s teachings are do-able. A great many of them tell of their own experiences using those teachings to generate some absolutely amazing profits.*

Why then are there opposing views?

The answer is simple: Once Carlton has taught you “how” you can do it and you have consciously accepted the fact that it can be done, you will have the personal courage to ask for the alternative financing methods that Carlton has taught you. Those who fail with Carlton’s course never truly consciously accept the fact that it can be done so they never ask, usually because they have read somewhere or someone told them that “it can’t be done.”

Actually, the only thing Carlton’s course teaches you is what to ask for and how to ask for it. Hopefully, that will instill in you the courage to ask.

If you have read any of my business writings over the past 37 years, you may have noticed that I have CAPITALIZED, italicized, underlined or emboldened one word almost every time I have used it. That word is ASK.

Whether your goal is to have that pretty lady in the office down the hall as your soul mate or to have a million dollars…All you gotta do is ask!

If your goal is to have that pretty lady in the office down the hall as your soul mate, how far do you think you’ll get if you don’t ask her out?

Should your goal be a bigger or better house, you ask by looking, answering real estate ads, talking with a broker, driving around the neighborhoods in which you would like to live. The asking doesn’t necessarily mean posing the question to anyone.
