Success Is One Thing, Impact Is Another The No. 1 cause of death in the United States is still heart disease and it has been for the last 80 YEARS! So much for the impact of progress and technology! The main contributor to heart disease is stress, so I will ask you again, how is your business affecting your health? I remember when I answered that question honestly for the first time back in 2005. My main business division was in rapid-growth mode, and money was pouring in, but so was the stress. I realized that my business model at the time was not working well for my overall health and sanity. So I leveraged the power of the 80/20 Prato Principal. I ran the numbers and, sure enough, 80 percent of my profits came from 20 percent of my clients. After deeper study, I realized these were my favorite clients and they caused me the least amount of stress. I took action that day and changed my model to only work with those 20 percent, and I’m so glad I did. I share this story to encourage you to make a shift in your business so you can maximize your health and sanity. Remember, health is the Real Wealth. The next question is how is your business affecting your marriage and, if you have them, your relationship with your kids? Yes, we are going there, because if you’re not Living Life to the Full, then you are not really living at all. In Los Angeles, where I was born and raised and still reside, I’m surrounded by people living one- pillar lifestyles. They have nice houses and cool cars, but they are bankrupt in their health and relationships, and they have no time. No wonder everyone is trying to escape through entertainment, drugs, alcohol, porn, or whatever. No thanks, not for me.
“Many men can make a fortune but very few can build a family.” –J. S. Bryan
What is the eternal impact that you are having through your business operations? Have you ever thought about it? Now is the time. Living Life to the Full is so much more than success; it’s all about impact. The biggest impact is a lasting impact. Let’s take a look at the most critical areas, shall we? How is your business impacting your health? Tell me: How can you have a lasting impact when you’re sick, stressed, and angry? “Wait a minute, Evan. I thought this article was going to be about leaving a legacy, not my health.” One of the greatest legacies you can leave is the legacy of good health. It all starts with an apple a day!

Yes, you are good enough! The greatest lie from the enemy has always been this: You are not good enough. We know better, yet the bad stuff always seems easier to believe. That’s what makes the lie so powerful in the first place — we believe there is some truth to it from our past experiences. For example, many women can relate with Cindy’s story. She is happily married and has two kids, a nice house, and a dog, and her husband is a successful entrepreneur. Like many of us, Cindy came from a divorced home, which is the most fertile soil for the you’re-not-good-enough lie to grow and develop. Cindy also lives in a busy American city, so over the past 30 years, she has been exposed to millions of self- image-destroying messages from the beauty industry. TV commercials, magazine articles, billboards, and bus stop ads all say the same thing: You are not good enough! You are too fat, too short, too tall, too pale, too dark, too plain, too whatever, but no matter what, it’s not good enough, which is why you have to buy this product. If you hear a lie over and over, pretty soon you start to believe it. Legendary singer-songwriter Tina Turner performed at a high level into her 70s while still managing to look 40! Want to know her secret to ageless skin and hair? Simply staying hydrated. Tina drinks eight glasses of water a day. Tom Brady reveals in his new revolutionary fitness book “TB12” that he’s on the same bandwagon. He attributes his longevity in football to being properly hydrated. Tom’s advice is to drink half your body weight in ounces of water per day. So for the average female, it’s about eight glasses per day. Just doing these few simple things will boost your health and fitness levels 1,000 percent over the average American. Yet most people don’t do it. But I know you’re not most people! I know you understand that health is the real wealth. It doesn’t matter if you have all the money in world and you’re the creator of world-changing technology like Steve Jobs; you can’t buy your health back. It’s simply not for sale. Speaking of not for sale, our spiritual lives cannot be bought either. You may be lacking in this department, but did you ever think it’s because of your health choices? “We are spiritual beings in a physical form. To neglect our physical bodies and expect our spiritual life to be unaffected is insanity.” –Jay Scully Take action now and choose to invest in real wealth: your health. Start drinking eight glasses of water a day, keep eating your apple a day (remember last issue’s article), and say YES to foods that strengthen your heart, mind, and soul. Cindy also had a long courtship with her husband; he opted for the five-year-plus plan to marriage. By

HEALTH IS THE REAL WEALTH
Gary Player, one of golf’s all-time greatest legends, still plays the game he loves. Gary is 82 years old and is known all over the world for his health and stamina. How many 82-year-olds do you know who can play 18 rounds of golf without using a cart? Gary has often been asked what his key to longevity is, and his answer is very simple, “No bacon, no milk, no white bread, and very little ice cream.” Pretty simple, isn’t it? There are certain foods that simply are not worth eating.

The husband, let’s call him Carl, may come from a home where his mom and dad stayed married, however, like most men, Carl has his father-son issues to deal with. Carl’s dad was just like mine: a structural engineer by day, finding all the faults in the airplane wings his company manufactured. When Carl’s dad got home at night, he would immediately start finding faults in everything his son did, thinking he was helping him “improve.” The only thing Carl’s dad was doing was telling him, over and over again, “You’re not good enough.” Carl also lives in a busy American city and he has been exposed to millions of ads telling him he isn’t man enough unless he drinks this kind of beer, drives this kind of car or truck, or wears this kind of watch. The product is irrelevant but the message is the same: Unless you have this product and more of it, you’re not good enough. It’s all a giant lie! The only way to combat a lie is with the truth! With God you are good enough. You were made in His image; it doesn’t get better than that! Join me and a special group of entrepreneurs who want to live Life to the Full and Grow, Thrive, and Revive! If you’re married, I will personally underwrite the cost so you can bring your spouse for free! The first five people who email [email protected] will be eligible.
taking the delayed approach, the unintended message he sent to Cindy was, you guessed it, you’re not good enough. If she was good enough, he would have married her sooner. Whether it’s true or not is irrelevant; it’s true to Cindy, and the damage is catastrophic as well as long-lasting. All of this adds up to a low self-image for Cindy — exactly where the enemy wants people to be. The reason is that people with a low self-image don’t want to change or grow is because it makes them feel not good enough all over again. Do you see this vicious trap? This is why, when a couple comes to one of our breakthrough seminars, the man may be taking extensive notes and appear excited to change, grow, and take action on what he has learned, while his wife is withdrawn and somewhat depressed. She is fighting the lie that she’s not good enough. She knows the skills and tools she has learned will help skyrocket the joy and passion in their marriage. Yet she is paralyzed by the lie of you’re not good enough, so she is spiraling down while her husband is spiraling up. He can’t figure out what’s gotten into her and why there is so much resistance. The reverse is also true in many homes. The wife may be gung-ho on all she has learned from my bride at one of our life-changing marriage events, and the husband is chained to the lie that asks this question: How come I’m never good enough for you? Wisdomource From the PROVERBS 15:23 “A man has joy by the answer of his mouth …” How are you? Fine, okay, hanging in there. When asked this question, I normally shock the person asking by my reply: “I’M TREMENDOUS!” The reason I answer this way is because I have JOY by the answer of my mouth! Because it’s my choice. But what if things aren’t going great? The simple truth is that there is always something to be excited about, even if it’s just your ability to talk. There are many people in this world who can’t hear or even speak. Think about that and count your blessings one by one.

The purpose of your business is to serve the lifestyle you want, not the other way around. Too many people get confused and feel like they have to keep building or keep scaling up in order to be successful. J. S. Bryan said, “Many men can make a fortune but very few can build a family.” I encourage you to join me and be one of the few who chose to Live Life to the Full and thrive not only in your business but also in your health and relationships. The simple truth is “All things are possible for him who believes,” Mark 9:23. All means all, but it will require some intentional living and a focus on harmony instead of the balanced lie. Oops, I’m getting ahead of myself; I’ll share more about that in the next issue.
For now, I challenge you to stop and take a new look at your life. Are you leaving the
legacy you want in your marriage? How about the intentional time you spend with your kids? Lastly, are
you leaving the legacy of good health? Now is the time to take action and change. You can do it.

They’re still in you because they need to come out. Let your greatness out; this is the year! A friend of mine just sold his house and left his job of 35 years to pursue his mega ambitious dream.
