• Are you looking for solid training, or strong information to share MA+ or one of our other products with prospects? Have you ever wished that a prospect could have heard some information on a conference call, but wasn't available at the time the call was aired on the conference line? To answer this need, Mark Greenawalt has professionally prepared a number of CDs of recent conference calls. These include, but are not limited to:
  • A discussion on how to obtain and implement the radio program, "Your Health Connection" (There is outstanding training on this CD. The principles demonstrated on this call can be applied whether running the radio show, doing the 100 Club, or talking belly-to-belly with someone on the street.)
  • Conference call on water and filtration systems with Bruce Rodney (recorded in the fall of 2003)
  • 100 Club training with Keith Begly and Curt Johnson
  • Various Monday night product calls (some with Dr. Cords; also, there is the recent call on diabetes with Robert Gauthier)

  Mark has broken the calls down into tracks for easy access of the information. For example, it is possible to play a specific testimony for a prospect simply by going to the specific track number on the CD. These are powerful tools to use in building your ITI business -- as well as getting a solid education for yourself as well.

  The list of available calls is constantly growing. For a FREE CATALOG and order form, email a request to Mark Greenawalt at mark.gr@sbcglobal.net.

Victim and Responsible: Give Yourself a Choice
By Brian Klemmer

Let's continue our discussion of two viewpoints for looking at life: victim and responsible. Victim is the viewpoint that something is being done to me. Responsible is the viewpoint that I am the cause for my experience. My experience is the result of choices I have made.

The key element that distinguishes these two viewpoints is choice. The victim doesn't see that they have choices. This is revealed in the use of three common victim statements: 1) I can't, 2) I have to, and 3) They won't.

Using each of the above statements, make a list of how you look at life from the perspective of a victim. Here are some examples to get you started:
I can't raise my income, because...
I can't be competitive, because...
I can't have what I want, because...
I can't get my customer (vendor, boss, subordinate) to listen to me, because...
I have to say yes, because...
I have to agree to these goals, because...
I have to work here, because...
I have to do it this way, because...
I have to run this kind of schedule, because...
They won't allow me to...
They won't let me do it the way I want...
They won't listen to me...
They won't work harder...
They won't ever change...

After you make your own true list, simply change all the statements to "I choose to.. ." At first you might resist this exercise, but do it anyway! Do you notice that rewording your statements to "I choose to..." feels different? That's because victim statements are draining. They consume energy and bring with them resentment, powerlessness and frustration. When you make choices, however, you create options and feel empowered.

In our summer teenage leadership "live in" seminars, the theme for the class is: "Every moment is a choice, and every choice has benefits and prices." At the beginning of camp, one of the students inevitably brings up something he or she views as an exception to having choices by saying that school is mandatory. Our facilitator responds by saying, "No, that is a choice." The student usually argues by saying, "No, I have to go to school." Our facilitator then maintains, "No, you are choosing to go to school." This verbal volley continues until the student eventually says something such as, "Look. If I don't go to school, they'll drag me to juvenile hall." At this point, our facilitator says, "That's correct! That's called a price! You are choosing to go to school and pay one price, instead of another."

When we're honest with ourselves and admit that we make choices because of consequences, our experience changes. We begin to see how we can live from a responsible -- rather than a victim - point-of-view.
