I chose this venue because it gives you a "penthouse moment" or what Millennium guru Iyanla Vanzant calls "an exhilarating high that makes you feel like you are on top of the world, that you are capable of doing almost anything." It is especially beneficial and empowering for people who feel like they’ve been having nothing but "basement moments" lately. And the wind up there is strong, bracing and fresh.
Another reason I chose the venue is that the room where I held the seminar is small and cozy. I prefer talking to a small group; rapport is easier to build because of the closeness, the intimacy. We can question and search for answers together, and marvel at the little revelations that come our way as a close, tightly bonded unit.
But the whole show was pretty much set. I knew my material well enough that I could recite it without difficulty even if Jennifer Lopez were sashaying and grinding right in front of me.
What a motley, enthusiastic crowd we had! There were business people, entrepreneurs, writers, showbiz folks, mothers, college students, sales persons, computer enthusiasts, artists, a gentleman farmer, a physics professor, a Korean businessman, even a little boy of ten! It was a bright-eyed bunch eager to learn and absorb.
In this dynamic four and a half-hour seminar you will learn the 12 Failure Anchors that keep you from being successful, the 9 Secret Universal Principles that you can use to achieve your impossible dreams, the 5 powerful Dream Achievement Techniques including Creative Visualization and Emotioimagineering, Man’s 12 Ultimate Goals in Life, Pedero’s 3 formulas for guaranteed success, plus many more effective success tips and proven techniques. I did all the work and the research, and collated them all into one sweet, neat package; all you have to do is sit and listen!
She told me how elated and empowered she felt after attending the course and that great effort must be taken to make more people come and learn all the success techniques I teach in the seminar.
"Unfortunately," she said, "these are not the best of economic times. You will have to lower your enrolment rates."
My natural reaction was to justify to her that good things don’t come cheap. I started to assemble in my mind all the reasons why it is such an expensive seminar. The production is expensive. Just the computer programming alone took a long time and a big chunk of the budget. Then there’s the venue to pay for, the sound system, video and computer projection rentals, technicians’ fees, janitorial fees, secretarial and printing fees, and the food bill (dinner comes with the session; in American seminars they don’t even give you water!). I was about to open my mouth but her enthusiasm calmed me down.
She said, "Schedule four sessions and I shall take care of your basic expenses. Simplify the food preparations by downsizing the present menu from six courses to three. People don’t come for the food, they come for what they can learn and apply in their lives."
I was dumbfounded and puzzled as to whether the lady was for real or just another character with attention deficit syndrome. But she was for real. And a real angel, too! And like a true angel, she demanded that her name not be mentioned at all. I became misty-eyed realizing that people like her still exist.

I knew I wanted something more in my life and it was this seminar that helped me pin it down. I really wonder why I was never able to pinpoint before what I wanted most in life.
