We can’t REALLY grow younger… can we?
Saturday, April 20th, 2013
Growing younger is a shift for most of us because society has been handicapped by the prevailing ideas and beliefs about aging. We’ve been taught that growing old is grim, that aging unavoidably involves the loss of many of our aptitudes and abilities, that aging isn’t fun or graceful and that it is often painful.
Not so many decades ago, we were also taught that people couldn’t fly – until a few forward thinkers chose not to accept the impossibility of flight. Instead, they figured out how to do it. We were taught that polio couldn’t be prevented – until Dr. Jonas Salk invented the vaccine. Today, I and other age-reversing pioneers are shaking the roots of the prevailing belief system and figuring out how we can grow younger as we age. The first step toward making it happen is to conceive of becoming youthful.
Scientific research is contributing to the day when the progressive deterioration of aging is a thing of the past. Many fields of discipline, including life-extension science and medicine, have jumped on the bandwagon of age reversal, so the possibility of growing younger is being examined and tested from many vantage points. Astounding advances are taking place every day in molecular biology, organ and tissue regeneration and nanotechnology. Breakthroughs in these fields will potentially eliminate age-related illness and give us youthful skin, organs and brains.
I focus a great deal on consciousness studies and mind/body practices, both ancient and modern, and apply the shift of consciousness to growing younger. As expressions of the Divine, we are all interacting in a field of unlimited potential. Our conscious connection to the Divine and our beliefs and behaviors determine the degree to which we express radiant, joyful life, and this applies to every area of our lives.
New scientific discoveries are revealing what many wise teachers and healers have taught for centuries: our thoughts and beliefs create our reality. Quantum physicists have found, to their complete surprise, that matter is affected by thought, a discovery that rocked the boat for the scientific community. Scientists have since peered into the life of our trillions of cells and found that they are actually responding to the environment of our thoughts and beliefs. What we say to ourselves about who we are and how we age does matter! As Henry Ford once said, “If you think you can or you think you can’t, you’re right.”
As the science of epigenetics shows, our fate is not controlled by our genes. Instead, non-genetic factors over which we can have control send signals to our genes to express themselves differently. More specifically, our beliefs and behaviors including diet, exercise, skincare, prayer, and our thoughts about and responses to life strongly influence the expression of our genes.
This is good news, my friends! For me it means the Alzheimer’s gene I have inherited has the opportunity to remain in the off position. I spent five years accepting the symptoms of Alzheimer’s as my fate. Then, nine years ago, I made a conscious choice to grow younger. My behaviors and my genes followed my belief, and now Alzheimer’s is just an unexpressed potential in my life.
You can reverse aging just like I have, and live an active, sexy, creative life.
Can EFT really help us grow younger?
Thursday, April 4th, 2013
Yes, I believe it can. I believe it is making me younger.
But it’s not my only daily grow younger practice. EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) is one of 12 daily practices that I use to grow younger and stay youthful.
EFT is very effective in releasing stuck emotions that have settled into the tissues of your body and are keeping you from being the best you can be.
I do three rounds of EFT every day, (it takes just 3 minutes total) even if I’m feeling joy coursing through my body. Why? Because I want it to be a daily HABIT!
You’ll learn all about it when my new book comes out – there’s a whole chapter on EFT with ‘how-to’ instructions. In the meantime, I’ll pass along sections of chapter 5 in my emails and blogs to help you get started.
And RIGHT NOW you can get more information about EFT from the top expert, Nick Ortner, author of The Tapping Solution.
http://thetappingsolution.com/
Who knows? You might want to use this proven technique to enhance your love life, bring in more money, lose weight, reduce stress or any number of reasons to enhance your life.
Click here and read about this fascinating process: http://
Then get his book since mine’s not ready yet. Besides, ALL the chapters in his book are about EFT.
FYI — Nick lives in Newtown, Connecticut, and he’s donating 100% of his royalties from the first 10,000 books sold to two charities helping those affected in the December 14th school shooting.
I already ordered mine.
The darkest year of my life…
Tuesday, April 2nd, 2013
No, I’m not talking about MY darkest year
but it could have been. If you’ve been with
me long enough, you know that in July 2011
I went on retreat to do inner work and didn’t
emerge until February 2012.
That was a long, dark night of the soul for
me – and one of the most important times
of my life because I learned so much and
transformed my life in significant ways.
So many of you sent me heart-warming
emails comforting and nurturing me and
praying for me during this difficult period.
A large part of bringing myself through
this period was using EFT – Emotional
Freedom Technique. It’s tapping on
meridian points to release trauma that’s
gotten stuck in the tissues of one’s body.
I’m writing about my experiences with EFT
in my new book. It’s just one of the
practices in “Rejuvenate Your Life! 12
Practices to a Joyful, Younger You.”
I’ll tell you more about the book another
time. Right now I want to tell you about
a short video I just watched. It’s actually
a trailer for a ground-breaking new book,
that opens with this powerful statement:
“In my darkest year, I discovered tapping,
and, miraculously, this unorthodox approach
to making sense of my life moved me out of
the fog and into the sunshine…”
You have to watch the video, it’s even more
powerful when you see it there:
http://thetappingsolution.com/cmd.php?Clk=5013082
EFT tapping is becoming more mainstream so
you’ve probably at least heard about it.
This technique, a combination of Ancient
Chinese Acupressure and Modern Psychology,
is taking the personal development world
by storm.
Thought leaders like Wayne Dyer, Louise Hay,
Cheryl Richardson, and Kris Carr…
Doctors and psychologists like Dr. Joe Mercola,
Dr. Eric Robins, David Feinstein, Phd,
Dr. Mark Hyman, and Dr. Christiane Northrup…
And millions of others around the world
are using tapping in their daily lives,
sharing it with friends, family, patients
and clients for one simple reason: It works.
If you’ve never heard of tapping before,
then I urge you to explore the short video
and explanation on this page:
http://thetappingsolution.com/cmd.php?Clk=5013082
And if you’ve already experienced tapping,
maybe tried it a couple of times and forgot
about it, or even if you consider yourself
an expert tapper who just wants to take
their practice to the next level, I highly
recommend you pick up a copy of EFT expert
Nick Ortner’s new book, “The Tapping Solution.”
Already a #1 Amazon bestseller for Stress
Management, “The Tapping Solution” is an
in-depth exploration into how you can use
tapping to change your life.
Early reviews for the book are flying in,
with 5 stars all around:
“You will love this book, The Tapping
Solution—I certainly do.”
— Louise L. Hay, author of You Can Heal
Your Life
“Put away your skepticism; this really
works. I have worked with Nick and had
great results with tapping in my own life.”
— Dr. Wayne W. Dyer, author of Wishes Fulfilled
To celebrate the release of the book,
Nick Ortner is giving away some powerful
bonuses (over $100 worth), just for
picking up a copy of the book, including
audios on Tapping for Stress Relief,
Emotional Eating and Cravings, Financial
Success, Silencing the Critical Voice,
and Tapping for Pain Relief.
You get all these bonuses instantly, when
you pick up a copy of the book today
(the book itself is right around $15!):
http://thetappingsolution.com/cmd.php?Clk=5013082
On top of that, for the first 10,000 books
sold, Nick Ortner is donating 100% of his
royalties (yes, you read that right, 100%!),
to the Jesse Lewis Choose Love Foundation
and The Tapping Solution for Newtown: Stress
and Trauma Relief Project, two organizations
that are working on the ground in
Newtown, CT, Nick’s hometown, to help
the community heal.
http://thetappingsolution.com/cmd.php?Clk=5013082
I highly recommend you pick up a copy today
and take the first step in transforming your
life and transforming the world at the
same time.
Joy and Blessings!

Sitting can be deadly. Take butt breaks.
Friday, March 15th, 2013
These days I spend quite a bit of time sitting on my butt at the computer (my second book is just about done – Yay!!) and that’s certainly not conducive to good posture. Worse than that, sitting all day can be deadly. Dr. Alpa V. Patel, an epidemiologist at the American Cancer Society in Atlanta, studies the health risks associated with too much sitting. According to Patel, there is a definite correlation between sitting time and reduced longevity.
In one study researchers discovered that people who sat for eleven hours a day or more were 40% more likely to die at any given time – of any cause – than those who exercise regularly. Prolonged sitting has also been implicated in colon and breast cancer, and people who sit for most of their day are 54% more likely to die of a heart attack than those who are active, according to another recent study.
Even though writing on the computer is something I do almost every day, if I sit for more than an hour, my butt hurts. That thought reminds me of one of my favorite cartoons: There are two chocolate bunnies, one with a big bite taken out of his butt and the other with one ear chewed off. The first one says, “My butt hurts.” The other says, “What?”
I feel like that first bunny if I don’t get up and move around every half hour or so. In fact, I’ve devised several ways to make sure I get moving. Practicing the Tibetan Rites of Rejuvenation every morning will not make up for sitting all day.
One way I get myself moving is by using the upstairs bathroom instead of the one near my office. Trust me, with the 50 to 60 ounces of water I drink every day, I take quite a few swift trips up and down those stairs. Aim to drink half your body weight in ounces of pure water every day and take a walk to the farthest faucet in your home or place of business to refill your water bottle.
Another way I get moving is to get up from my chair about every half hour and touch my toes or do some other stretching. Sometimes I take two of my small weights (5 lbs. each), lie on my back on my exercise ball and extend my arms straight up, then slowly lower them and repeat this several times. I also do some modified push-ups during a butt break.
What do I sit on at my desk? I kneel on an ergonomic chair most of the time. Other times I sit on my exercise ball. Try them and see if one or the other works for you – both are much better than a regular desk chair, if that’s where you’re sitting all day.
Breathing can be a problem when you sit hunched over a desk for a prolonged period. That posture can restrict the flow of oxygen to your lungs and cause you to breathe less deeply. How does shallow breathing affect you? Perhaps most significantly, when the flow of oxygen to your organs is restricted, your brain can’t function properly. This is dangerous because the brain controls the performance of the rest of your bodily functions. Also, when your brain doesn’t get enough oxygen, there goes your memory, concentration and ability to think straight! So get off your butt and stand up for some deep breathing.
Live longer and grow younger by taking some butt breaks. You’ll be doing your brain a big favor too.
A Message From a Newtown CT Parent About EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique)
Monday, February 18th, 2013
I want to share a powerful message
that was just shared with me that
was written by Scarlett Lewis, who lost
her 6 year old son Jesse Lewis,
in the tragedy of Newtown, CT on
December 14th, 2012:
“In my attempt to heal from the tragedy
of losing my son in a tragic shooting,
an experience that has broken my
heart and made me question going
on with my own life, I sought many
different types of help.
“Initially I sought traditional ‘talk’
therapy that left me re-traumatized
and feeling worse.
“Nick Ortner introduced me to Tapping
and I always finish these sessions
with a deeper understanding of
myself, feeling better, with a lightness
of being, and hope.”
Many people know Nick Ortner as
the producer of the Tapping World
Summits, the latest of which just
ended this last Wednesday and
had over 460,000 registered…
But many don’t know that Nick Ortner
is a resident of Newtown, CT.
Nick has been working closely
with parents, first-responders,
teachers, students and many others
from the community using Tapping
to help them overcome the
overwhelming emotions that have
come from that day.
And the results he’s seeing are
out of this world powerful.
I want to share a video with you
today that I think will help give
you an idea of just how powerful
EFT and Tapping can be for you
in your life.
I can’t stress to you enough that if
you have not yet delved into how
Tapping can improve your life, that
you’re missing out on a world of
possibility for yourself and your life.
http://thetappingsolution.com/cmd.php?Clk=4978102
Also, you’ll learn on the page how
the producers of the Tapping World
Summit, Nick, Jessica and Alex
Ortner, are donating 100% of all
purchases of the Tapping World
Summit packages during this closeout
week until they reach their goal of
raising $25,000 to the work being
done in Newtown.
If you want to see just how powerful
Tapping is and can be for you, while
at the same time discovering a
meaningful way to help those of
Newtown, CT, and others in the world
dealing with difficult grief and trauma,
then make sure to watch the video
on this page and pick up one of the
amazing upgrade packages for the
event.
http://thetappingsolution.com/cmd.php?Clk=4978102
The summit is an amazing and life-
changing program on it’s own and
when you add that you’ll be helping
those most heavily effected from
Newtown when you pick it up, it
becomes such an easy choice.
You can read details on exactly what
the program can help you with on the
page below.
The results of those that just experienced
the free portion of the Tapping World
Summit were jaw dropping.
This is the final week to be able to
take advantage of getting the special
upgrade packages before they go
into production so make sure to check
out the page below and take advantage
of it. 🙂
http://thetappingsolution.com/cmd.php?Clk=4978102
Joy and Blessings,
Ellen
P.S. – Tapping has been recommended
by experts like Wayne Dyer, Louise
Hay, Dr. Mark Hyman and many others…
It’s been instrumental in helping people
people dealing with difficult situations
like veterans with PTSD, genocide
survivors in Rwanda, and those
traumatized in Newtown, CT…
And it’s created life-altering changes
for a countless number of people
during the last five years of Tapping
World Summits.
This technique works…extremely well.
It can change your life, if you’re willing
to try it for yourself and see the results.

Q & A about the LeadHERship Cruise
Tuesday, February 12th, 2013

A: No. Men want to have fun and be empowered too, so men have also made the smart decision to sign up. Many fewer than women, but it’s not a “women only” cruise.
Q: I haven’t signed up because I don’t have anyone to share a cabin with.
A: No problem. $459 for an interior cabin for the entire cruise (including seminars and all that yummy food and gala parties) is based on 2-person occupancy but you’re not alone. Just let us know if you need a roommate. Settle down, men. We’re only pairing up women with women. : )
Q: I’m hesitant to sign up because I’m a little shy and won’t know anyone on the cruise.
A: Ours is a small group and our speakers are caring, loving people who will make everyone feel welcome. You’ll enjoy the camaraderie and if you need some alone time, you can have that too
Q: What about when we’re off the ship?
A: If you want to swim with dolphins in Cozumel, Mexico, you’ll be with our group of people who choose to do that. And if you want to see the Mayan ruins and pyramids, you’ll go with those who want to do that. And there are quite a few other choices as well. There’s a fee for excursions, so check it out at www.leadHERshipcruise.com.
Q: I’ll be flying in to Miami. What time should I plan to arrive?
A: Ah, we have a special luncheon planned for you on Thursday, April 25. (No extra charge since sponsors are picking up the tab.) So, although the ship leaves at 4 PM, you’ll want to arrive sometime in the morning or the day before. Call Wanda at Network Travel if you need a hotel room: 1-888-837-6504.
Q: How will I get from the airport to the pier where the ship is?
A: Carnival has transportation from both Fort Lauderdale and Miami airports. You can either call Wanda at Network Travel 1-888-837-6504 or visit Carnival for more information.
Q: What clothes should I bring?
A: Whatever makes you comfortable, but don’t forget your swimsuit and walking shoes. And don’t be concerned about overdressing for dinner. If dressing up is fun for you, get as fancy as you want. We assure you at least one of our speakers will always dress in swanky, glamorous outfits.
Q: Anything else I should know?
A: Yes, we’re serious about empowering you to be the best you can possibly be. So onboard you’ll get a chance to try on the new you.

Bye Bye, Sweetie!
Saturday, January 26th, 2013
“Sugar and spice and everything nice.” When we were children some of us took to heart that rhyme about what little girls are made of and we gobbled candy and other sweet things. Not so that we’d become sweeter – it just tasted darn good! It certainly sounds better than “Slugs and snails and puppy dogs’ tails” – what little boys are made of. It turns out sugar is not nice – to little girls or big girls orbig or little boys, and many of us have suffered the effects of too much sugar. Now it’s time to leave childhood rhymes behind and remedy that sweet tooth we’ve had since we were kids.
Good nourishment is not only what we put into our body – it also includes what we don’t put into our body. In my opinion – and a number of doctors agree with me – the most damaging thing you can eat is sugar. Inflammation is a major factor in aging and has been linked to heart disease and obesity, arthritis, gastritis, colitis, dermatitis, and other chronic conditions, and sugar is a major cause of inflammation.
How many grams of sugar are you eating a day?Numbers can be very important, but few are more important to your health than the number of grams of sugar you’re consuming each day. I say ‘grams’ rather than ‘teaspoons’ because you’re probably aware of how many teaspoons of sugar you put into your coffee or oatmeal, but you may not be mindful of the sugar you consume in bottled drinks and packaged food – and those show the amount of sugar in grams.
To convert the grams into teaspoons, divide the number of grams by 4. For a drink that contains 32 grams of sugar, the equivalent is 8 teaspoons!
Here is a very important habit for you to undertake: every time you go to the grocery store, put “look at sugar” on your list. Then when you’re shopping, check to see how much sugar is in the bottled drinks, cereal, canned goods, packaged food, kefir, nut milks and so on. You’ll be amazed.
My anti-aging doctor gave me a goal of no more than 15 grams of sugar a day; preferably 5 grams at the end of each meal, rather than all 15 grams at one time, to avoid rapid glucose fluctuations in my bloodstream. I decided to aim for that six days a week.
Sometimes I go slightly over 15 grams; once in awhile I go under. On the 7th day, I go ahead and splurge and allow myself a break. I normally don’t even take that break but it’s good for the soul to know that I have that freedom.
Ask your healthcare practitioner what your daily limit of sugar should be, and if you should count fresh fruit or not. I don’t because fruits are full of nutrients, fiber, vitamins and minerals. However, I believe even fruits should be limited since they can spike your blood sugar.
What’s sweet and does not spike your blood sugar? Stevia is my favorite – it’s plant-based, has a zero glycemic index and is 200 to 300 times sweeter than sugar. And although experts disagree, some prefer agave as a natural sweetener for its low glycemic index and you need less of it than sugar since it’s one and a half times sweeter.
So say, “Bye bye, Sugar!” and get on the road to healthier sweeteners. You’ll live longer and feel better.
Your attention is on the wrong thing

A positive revolution in change is occurring and LeadHERship Empowerment Cruise speaker and leading communication authority, Lisa Giruzzi, is heading this change. Lisa is a best selling author and transformational speaker whose unique approach causes extraordinary results, exceeding her clients’ expectations.
One of the core principles of Lisa’s work is “Communication is everything and everything is communication.” Because we are always interpreting the world around us, trying to make sense of things, making connections between different events, our thinking is where communication begins and ends.
In this article you will discover the ultimate secret to achieving positive, long lasting change that will get you on track for extraordinary results in 2013 and beyond.
Lisa Giruzzi’s appearance on the LeadHERship Cruise is sponsored by Jude Connally.
Jude Connally is a modern collection of vibrant prints and soft silhouettes that makes everyday dressing for women EASY, EXPRESSIVE and FUN; a perfect match for the philosophy behind the LeaderHERship Empowerment Cruise.
What others are saying about Lisa Giruzzi:
“We really enjoyed your presentation! We received all positive responses back on our survey; with 4 – being excellent – you received all fours!!! ~Joy Good, CPC RMM, Adirondack NYMGMA Program Chair
“Thanks for a powerful presentation and practical take-a-ways. Your examples really helped connect me to the message and your well-timed humor made this truly enjoyable. I look forward to learning more.” ~ Theresa Agresta, Partner, Allegory Studios
“The members you presented for are describing your presentation as “awesome.” They absolutely loved it; you helped them gain clarity on how to approach their goals and their role as leaders in their businesses. I can’t thank you enough for presenting to our group. You, as always, were fantastic.” ~ Anne Saile, President, The Saile Group
More information on Lisa Giruzzi is available at http://www.leadhershipcruise.com/Cruise_Speakers_4.html
Lisa’s article:
Here we are, midway through January and if you are like most people your resolutions for 2013 are a distant memory. Or perhaps you are one of the “good” ones who, even though the excitement and newness of setting the goal has faded, you are staying the course but it’s become really hard and sheer will is keeping you going. You are wondering how you are going to sustain it and now question whether the goal is even worth it.
By now you are berating yourself for failing, being weak willed or worse. I’d like you to consider it is not your fault. I am not absolving you of your personal responsibility for your success, however I assert you have had your attention on the wrong thing and THAT is not your fault.
We have all been led to believe that the source of change is simply taking new actions. A common example is the goal of losing weight. Everyone knows if you want to lose weight all you need to do is eat less and exercise more. While this is accurate it does not take into account the complexity of the issue. How do I know? Ninety-five percent of people who use this strategy fail.
What you weigh is the result (or outcome) of the design of your life. The simple “eat less, exercise more” solution is like putting a Band-Aid on a wound that requires intricate surgery.
Every result you have in your life, the ones you like and the ones you don’t, are an outcome of past thinking and past actions. So in the losing weight example, your current weight, body fat, muscle mass, overall health, etc., is the outcome of thousands of choices, decisions, beliefs and actions – most of which have been unconscious. These choices, beliefs, actions (and even lack of action) have become a system of thinking, a complex web of thought or mental model which leads to your actions in the present.
Your mental model runs you and for the most part, you have no idea what it is! You have unwritten rules, disguised as “shoulds,” about absolutely everything. These are the “of courses” to you, the common sense things you think everyone should live by. Things like:
- “I should weigh less”
- “My husband should appreciate me, say I love you, know what I need, etc., more often.”
- “If he/she loved me he would… (Fill in the blank)”
- “I should be better organized, focused, intentional, disciplined, etc.”
- “I should exercise more, eat healthier, spend more time with the kids, spouse, parents.”
- “I shouldn’t care what others think or let fear stop me.”
- “I should speak up more, delegate more, etc.”
- “Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah…”
You get the picture. I am not passing judgment on rules or shoulds; they are neither good nor bad, right nor wrong. The question is, does the thinking “I should ______ ,” produce the result you want? Does knowing what you should do change your behavior over the long-term.
The litany of shoulds you have is the window to your mental model and the access to causing long-lasting real change. Each of the shoulds in your life represents a rule or belief to be examined with love and curiosity. Please be clear this is NOT about positive thinking. That’s like putting frosting on dog food. It may look good but it’s still dog food underneath.
Instead, objectively inquire into the rule with the intention of discovering something new. Ask questions like:
- Does this “rule” or belief work for me (produce the result I desire)?
- Am I actually taking action consistent with the belief?
- When did I learn this rule/belief?
- Does following this rule lead to joy and freedom in my life or does it constrain and limit me?
- What if this rule/belief were not true, how else could I think about it?
Here is the bottom line; in the areas of your life where you do not like your results focusing only on the actions will lead to failure. You must first and foremost focus on and assess the ways of thinking that led to the actions you took. Then, you must engage in new thinking, which will lead to new actions and new results.
When you sign up for the LeadHERship Empowerment Cruise and mention this article you will receive a step-by-step guide for exploring your rules and shoulds that will lead you to more powerful actions and exceptional results. Go to www.LeadhershipCruise.com to register and then email Lisa Giruzzi at Lisa@YourCommunicationAuthority.com to obtain your step-by-step guide absolutely free.
And, oh yes! Sign up today for this fun, empowering cruise at www.leadHERshipcruise.com.
Full Rejuvenation in Near Future?
Thursday, January 17th, 2013
Here is an important newsletter from the founder of Maximum Life Foundation, my friend David Kekich. I encourage you to sign up for his free newsletter at www.maxlife.org and learn about the exciting findings in life extension science.
Love and Blessings,
Ellen
Did you see the February issue of Life Extension Magazine?
The cover article was about a stem cell technology that Life Extension has been supporting… to the tune of $2 million so far! The company has raised more funding as well.
The ultimate goal is to develop a progenitor cell treatment that will rejuvenate every tissue in your body. That’s right. The implications are… turning the aged into biologically younger versions of their former selves. Individual diseased or aged organs can be targeted as well.
Pie in the sky? Maybe, if they were the only one working on this approach. But others are pursuing it too, including one company I’ll tell you about in a moment which may get there first.
The company that Life Extension has been supporting is BioTime, Inc, headed by Dr. Michael West, one of the most brilliant researchers in the world and one of the most respected stem cell researchers. BioTime is a publicly traded biotechnology company focused on the emerging field of regenerative medicine. Their core technologies center on novel stem cells capable of becoming all of the cell types in the human body.
Mike West has been a champion of extreme life extension for about two decades.
There are other lesser known champions as well. One in particular has a novel and simpler way to do what BioTime is working on. This particular scientist is just as dedicated as Mike. What sets life extension researchers apart from researchers working on other diseases is… they are afflicted by the condition they are determined to cure.
It’s not that researchers working on individual diseases aren’t dedicated. Most are. It’s just that most cancer and heart disease researchers aren’t afflicted by cancer and heart disease. Self-preservation may be the strongest motivator of all. We see it throughout the animal kingdom. So the bottom line is, when scientists’ lives are on the line, they tend to work more evenings and weekends. They seem to be more innovative. And they tend to be more focused.
That’s one reason I like Mike West. And it’s the same reason I like scientist #2. He is preparing his business plan now and may be able to accomplish on a shoestring budget and in record time what no one before him has done. None but a few of us are even aware of what he has planned and what he has designed.
Hopefully, there are others silently developing world-changing concepts such as this. Meanwhile, I’m pulling for #2 to find one or more investors before too many more of us die prematurely.
More Life,
