“Discover how to end the struggling practice and make sure that by this time next year you’re booked solid, even turning clients away

12 months of strategy setting, marketing makeover, tactical manoeuvres, rapid revenues, staff handling, competitor out witting, problem solving and opportunity laden sessions - with my continual advice, guidance and mentoring STARTS 13th JANUARY 2009

Chances are you've been struggling, yes? And it's not because you're less capable. Its because -- chances are -- you were not brought up with an entrepreneur, possibility thinking, profit oriented mindset. The great majority of us are brought up and educated to believe in limitation, false ceilings, hard slog, luck and lack.

I love how Joe Polish of Piranha Marketing terms it - "you want an ELF business - easy, lucrative and fun. Right now you have a HALF business - Hard, Annoying, Lame and Frustrating!"

Fill your diary with paying clients Express your uniqueness at work
Take days off whenever you want Virtualy guarantee a rewarding future
Double your income while helping people Breathe new life and fun into your practice
Be able to tell people what you do in a way that makes them want it! Remember why you got into this profession in the first place!
Stop thinking like a therapist & think like a business owner Market & promote yourself in fun ways - even if you hate marketing
Turn your ideas into income streams Dissolve any fears that are holding you back

Powerful marketing strategy is critical, but it's by no means enough. It takes a systemised series of in-depth training days spanning months, that begins with a broad and deep analysis of you and your business as you are today, then the creation of a powerful step-by-step growth leap, backed up with a bullet-proof attitude and psychology of excellence.

It takes mentorship, driving forward every week by you, with my constant input and coaching. It takes accountability, encouragement, support, regular re-exposure to the game plan, and live events where we create letters, adverts, websites, emails, systems and procedures.

AND I'll Coach You For A Full 4 Weeks To Help You Step By Step To Get Out Of Debt And Grow A Nest Egg That Will Spare You From Eating Cat Food On Crackers When You're Seventy..."

Dear Financial Freedom Seeker,

FACT: One third of all borrowers lie to the bank about the real reason for taking out a loan. Did you?

FACT: Parents typically spend £165,668 raising a child from birth to age 21. Are you?

If you’re as fed up as I am with crumbling bank institutions, scaremongering news headlines and the gradual creeping up of daily expenses, then I’d like to ask you to STOP and read this 5 minute message.

FACT: One in four pensioners survives on less that £7,500 per year. Could you?

If you'd like to get out of debt, get control over your money and never lose a night's sleep over finances again, then this might be the most important message you'll ever read.

What would happen if you cleared up any hidden limiting beliefs about deserving more money that you don't know you have?

How would you like to know what's bound to be coming next in your personal growth?

And does the title "Master Practitioner of NLP" after your name appeal to you?

Is it true that you still have pain and hurt left over from the past? If you let all of that go and aligned yourself to race forward in life, who would you most like to emulate?

NLP Master Practitioner On the Weekends

Enough’s Enough - How to make the most of the recession:

You can’t get away from the propaganda – the US stock market nosedive, home repossessions, house prices falling, banks being nationalised. Lots of people are scared and anxious about their mortgage, their job and their finances. Remember that the media make money by scaring us – the more we’re scared, the more we buy papers and watch the news. There’s no money in good news.

I’ve been watching this from the sidelines and now its time to speak up. Let’s look at things from a different angle. The fact is, people still have money – your wage hasn’t gone down, but your expenses have gone up. Chicken is more expensive, petrol, bread, everything costs more. So you probably have less disposable income per month. That means people are being cautious. They’re being more choosy about what they buy. They want to know more about the details and they want to get a good deal. But people still have needs and wants, and that means they still spend money.

Then there’s the law of cycles and rhythms – this is a sine wave, and it always turns out OK. The good times will return. Like fashion, economics, trends. Up and down then up again. There’s no need to panic. Recessions make millionaires – certain informed people make more in troubled times than in any other time in history. You can decide if you are going to struggle, or thrive in the recession…

So here’s 4 points to think about.

1. The self employed entrepreneur adapts – we’re proactive, we alter our approach. We change tack. The average person is reactive - eats up the propaganda and stays scared, at the beck and call of the media.
2. Our business relies on sales by providing valuable products and services to the public. Others care about bling, keeping up with the Jones’ and having the best toys. Expensive and superficial.
3. We think about abundance and optimising, looking for opportunities. Most of the population will focus on scarcity and will medicate themselves with food, alcohol and other numbing habits.
4. Marketing is the key – direct response marketing that asks for action. Everyone else will engage in the activity called “waiting”. Remember that waiting is an activity.

OK so there is an economic problem – that we can all agree on. But here’s the thing, in a recession people make fortunes. This is an opportunity. The average person is going to panic and freeze like a rabbit in the headlights. It’s not the economy that determines how well your business performs – it’s how you react to it.

What you need to do is to market more effectively, make your message more punchy and to the point. Increase your free taster sessions, become the industry watchdog and guided counsel. Educate your target market more and they’ll reward you with their business.

Body & Soul Event In Glasgow August

Oh dear. I used to do these events and have a stand as an exhibitor, and to be really honest, I couldn't remember why I stopped. But having done this one, now it all comes flooding back to me...

In a room full of therapists, psychics [well, some of them maybe...] and alternative retailers I set up my stand to promote my practice building programme at www.fullpractices.com I figured this was a good place to meet my target market client. There's a piccy of my stand.

I had 2 psychics on either side of me - one had a pal working the door and sending her leads, the other had loads of repeat customers from their last visit. Both saw a client every 30 minutes at £35 per time, over the 2 days. Do the math. Time to get my palmistry books out again... No problem filling their practices! Then one of the other psychics clocked them and an argument ensued. Never seen a bust up at an alternative event before.

What I found astounding was the fact that several stands in there were really quiet, yet not one of the exhibitors asked me about how I could help them. Therapists working on other therapists cos there was noone else coming close. Some stands even made it really difficult to know what they were promoting!

Didn't get many enquiries, but the ones I did get were all quality people who really want to grow their business. Some have joined Full Practices as a result. And I'm booked to do the next one, but unless I become a Druid I'm not so sure...

Can't Read Can't Write

Superb series running on Channel 4 with the rebellious [and therefore successful] Phil Beadle, who you may remember from a previous series called The Unteachables teaching equally rebellious children how to learn. This time he's got 6 months to turn a group of adults around. And its working!

"Today in Britain, over five million adults have a reading age of 12 or less or, worse, cannot read at all. From dealing with bills, letters, helping with their children's homework, shopping, and finding work, this illiteracy blights nearly every aspect of their lives, especially their self-esteem. Ashamed and embarrassed, many keep the fact that they can't read a secret, sometimes even from their own family."

I love this series - watch as a 58 year old woman who's never read a book before reads one aloud to her mother just to prove how far she's come in such a short time. And the kinesthetic learner who just wasn't "getting it" until Phil made pipe-cleaner letters on the floor and she could get her hands onto them, thus building the neurological connections. Pure NLP at its best in the real world!

There is a quick and easy 20 question free dyslexia test on the website http://www.xtraordinarypeople.com/ but this is not a diagnostic test.

Revealed: How To Get Everything You Want, & Change Anything You Don’t!

Tired of dragging around a painful past, or facing a dull looking future? GET out of your own way and meet the silent partner who's been running your life!

You can let go of past hurts, old hang-ups and bad habits that up until now you haven't been able to shake. And you can do it in September…

My name’s Jonathan Clark and I'd like to gift you a Profound Mind Technology with all of the answers to help you run your own head, reprogramme your habits and boost your self-confidence in a fun and easy way. Let me train you in HGE™

How? With my 10 day live seminar “Get Everything You Want, Change Anything You Don’t”.

There are lots of -ologies out there with no heart, that are too cold and "techniquey". They exclude people who want a more spiritual approach, are usually stuck in the 70's and haven't evolved much since then. They also tend to ignore the physical body, which is your foundation for everything else.

Instead, this 10 day course is the VERY LATEST personal development system that integrates every mind action approach you can think of, both mainstream and the esoteric, so you can change physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. It even covers ALL of the NLP syllabus, and a lot more!.

You’ll get a complete training in Hypnosis for self and others, a complete training in Time Line Therapy, cutting edge emotional balance techniques and all of the surprisingly fast NLP tools for change. You'll be able to let go of any past pain or trauma in minutes not years, AND design your future the way you want it.

Finally, you'll be able to destroy problems and build new solutions, in yourself and anyone else. You'll be able to change dumb beliefs that hold you back, neutralise triggers that fire you off, and increase your motivation and confidence - all in 10 days!

How? Using simple self-relaxation exercises you'll have the key that unlocks the vault to your brain, dump the rubbish and replace them with healthier thoughts, more upbeat feelings and more useful habits.

“I have received everything I expected and a whole lot more. This has been a very emotional, fun and profound experience. If people are interested at all in growing and changing for the better, you have to start training with Jonathan!” – Liesha Ross, Firewalk Instructor

According to the Office of National Statistics, 1 in 6 adults between the ages of 16 and 74 years old have a neurotic disorder - a phobia, depression or anxiety. They also said these disorders affect women more than men. A lifetime of stress can eventually lead to physical illness and disease. Don't become another statistic…

If you could change just one thing about your feelings, beliefs or habits, what would you change?

Full Hypnosis training, Time Line Therapy and all of the NLP tools -- plus the pre-study materials on 31 CDs and a full colour 193 page, easy to read manual.

• 2 Certificates for the price of 1 – NLP and HGE™
• Full money back guarantee so your money is safe.
• Repeat the training as often as you want for only 10%
• Come back and assist me on future courses and I'll pay you.

Most people come for their own personal development. Others want to become therapists or coaches, and we can even show you how to get clients & fill your practice.

Live Phobia Cure On BBC Radio

On Friday the 11th of July I was a guest on BBC Radio Scotland's Fred MacAulay show. This was all arranged by a friend of a friend. We had a spider phobic called Martin, a tarantula called "Rosebud" and a spider handler called Clare... you can see where this is going.

Basically the challenge was could I "fix" the phobia on air in 30 minutes. The good news is I did, and the photos of Martin holding Rosebud are on my website below. The bad news is that it happened after the show in the green room!

You can listen to the replay at http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00cd5lz

You can see the webpage I'd already set up in advance at www.jonathanclark.org The big hairy spider pics are RIGHT at the bottom of the page [not for the feint hearted!]

Welcome Technorati

Technorati Profile

You Mean There's 4 of You?

The Kahuna explains - FORMATION OF THE 4 BODIES

The four bodies mature at different times in your life. The Emotional body develops between 18 and 22, the Mental Body between age 28 and 32, and the Spiritual Body between 38 and 42. Most people experience big shifts in their identity during those periods as the body activates and grows. How about you? These are huge learning curves, and we may or may not optimise that body’s development at that time.

The spiritual body activation is often called a “mid life crisis”. Unresolved emotional issues come up, and if they are cleared, all is well. If not, men may find problems with relationships, expressing intimacy, and family values. This can lead to heart disease if unresolved. In women, who they are and what they want comes up. If resolved, the life shocks will spill out and she’ll become very expressive. If blocked, it can cause thyroid problems. Again, all the more reason to learn Huna, build your energy and clear out any unresolved issues.

ENERGY
Mana is life force energy. It’s called Chi in China, Ki in Japan, Shakti or Prana in east Indian system. The hypnotist Mesmer called it “animal magnetism”. Huna was originally called Ho’o mana – the Hawaiians said there was only one real difference between someone who was dead and someone who was alive – one has energy, or mana. And only one’s breathing…

Really simple, and really profound. But then, profound things are really simple. Like that last sentence.

Anything that adds life – is good. Anything that takes away life/decreases aliveness is bad. So some days you have tons of energy and you race to work. Other days are heavy gravity days, when you look over the quilt, the sun is too bright, the sheet wraps itself around your ankle and you just slide slowly back into sleep…

So begin now to pay attention to the energy in your body. The Huna diet book would be one page:

Eat it and have low energy, stop eating it. Eat & energy up? Eat more!

What is your energy doing inside you? How is it feeling inside of you?

You see low levels of mana leads to sickness and dis-ease, and premature ageing. Most esoteric studies taught that if life force energy was low or depleted, or maybe stuck and stagnant, ultimately that would lead to physical dis-ease. High levels of mana leads to empowerment and health, youthfulness and longevity. Imagine sending mana up to the Higher Self, and then having it come back down into the Unconscious Mind, turbo charged. Like rocket fuel.

Max Doubt Replies: OK, so now there's 4 of me? C'mon, you only have one body and that's the one I'm about to bitchslap you with in a minute... The other things aren't 'bodies' - my emotions, my thoughts and my spiritual beliefs are just electricity and chemicals in my bloodstream, making me feel things. And they're part of me, like everyone else.

Trying to say that people go through big stuff at key ages is a big claim to make.

Mid life crisis is just you looking back and taking stock - there's nothing "spiritual" to it, its just time to add up the scores on the doors and see how well, or how badly, you've played the game. And its a good excuse to start chasing skirt that's half your age! I'll show you some animal magetism darlin'....

Profound things are really simple yeah - like this is all tree-hugging hippy crap! See? Simple!

By the way, its a well known fact that every animal that eats gets tired afterwards cos it's digesting the food and that takes it out of you - Christmas pudding and the Queen's speech - works every time.

Who's right? VOTE NOW!

What Exactly Is A Kahuna, And Where Do I Buy One?

The Kahuna went on…

Let’s start with the definition of word “Kahuna”

Ka the light
Huna secret, spiritual, concealed knowledge or wisdom protected like a treasure
Kahu honoured or high servant who takes charge of persons, property or knowledge
Na calm, centred, balanced

So a Kahuna is anyone with specialised knowledge, PhD, a Jedi Master. Someone who protected a state of calmness and balance. Keeper of the calm, centred state. There were all types of Kahuna – in politics, government, planting, fishing, child birth, negotiation, farming, canoe building, navigation, tiki (statue) carving. The areas we’re interested in here include:

La’au Lapa’au doctors of medicine, herbal
La’au Kahea Literally “We call the medicine” - psychologists, faith healers
Kilikilo prediction, divination, runes
Na’auao mystics

It is rumoured that Huna was the secret teaching behind all other secret teachings. Certainly there are legends of an advanced island civilisation sinking and the people of the land sailing to the four corners of the globe, talking their lore with them. The Hawaiian islands are mountain tops centred on a tectonic plate resting above an active hotspot. The volcano on the Big Island is active to this day.

Polynesian is the oldest language on the planet. In fact 80% of the content of Huna has never been published in writing. Originally it was called “Ho’o mana”.

Ho’o = to make
Mana = Energy, Chi, Ki, Life force [as in mana from heaven]
Ho’o Mana = empowering yourself.

Think about it - everything you do requires energy, and the more energy you have, the longer you will live, and the more you can do with your life. Huna is all about making connections with sources of Mana. Now that may sound weird and “out there” to you, but there are corresponding systems that you may already be familiar with:

Having a Higher Self/Guardian Spirit— Native American, Hermetic(western Europe) and alchemy
4/5 Elements— Alchemy, Hermetics, Egyptian Magic, Tantra, Western and Japanese astrology
Entering the Dream Time (Moe Uhane)— Native American, Maori in New Zealand, Aborigine in Australia.
Herbs in Healing— Native American, Chinese, etc.
Energy Healing— Philippines psychic surgery, Reiki, Chinese Acupuncture
Numerology— Cabalah, Pythagoras, Japanese astrology, numbers and their vibrational essence
Astrology— Most systems use the stars and planets to predict
Chanting - Native American, Aborigine, Maori, Tantra

Of course these should all correspond if they all came from the same source…? Now is the time for the revival of ancient teachings – a shift is occurring…

Max Doubt’s response?

One way to “big up” yourself is to give yourself a fancy shmancy title! I thought a Ka was a crap motor!

You hear the words “Na” and “Ho!” on the streets of Glasgow ever day!

Methinks that these people keep a calm centred state by smokin’ the wacky backy!

See, you lost me at “faith healer” – are you honestly yelling me that people believe in this hokum? That I can heal myself through the power of spirit or divine intervention or whatever mumbo jumbo you’re pushing? I’ll stick with crawling up to the health centre and coming back with a bottle of penicillin mate! That’s white man’s “Ju ju”

Prediction and runes- it gets worse. You can find these freaks at any health fair, pretending they can read the future from the shape of your belly button fluff. Please! I predict I’m going to stop reading this shortly.

Come back Arthur C. Clarke, all is forgiven.

You get energy from calories, which is food and drink. And the occasional can of Red Bull. Looking at the average Hawaiian I’ve seen on TV there’s no shortage of McDonalds on those islands!

The Muppets had a song about this. “Mana mana doo doo do do do”

Wait a minute – Tantra you say? That’s that kinky stuff that Sting gets up to? Now this might be getting interesting…

Its your turn – tell us who’s right HERE

Can't Accept You If You'll Misuse It

The Kahuna was explaining that there are numerous ways to express the same thing. Sometimes people get caught up in their philosophy, getting almost righteous about it and that’s always bothered her. People try and tell you the real reason why something is the way it is. According to whom right? And in the process of teaching this she’s trying to stay true and to honour the original teachings.

Any training in esoteric studies should increase the positive character traits in the student. I think we’d all agree with that? It should bring increasing balance of the mind. What is the point of achieving a connection with the creator and infinite possibility, if you lose your rationality, livelihood, possessions and friends? The result should always be balance. You have 4 aspects to your personality – physical, mental, emotional and spiritual – any esoteric study should balance all of these. If not, there’s something wrong…

The Huna author Laura Kealoha Yardley said that “The key to becoming a strong, self-contained Kahuna means creating an inner balance so strong that nothing in the external material world or the internal spiritual world can throw one off centre without the individual being aware of it and possessing the ability to re-establish that balance at will. The reason for this is that balance is not a static state that, once achieved, remains forever. Balance is ever changing, constantly shifting and rearranging itself in order to be established. There is no such thing as static balance. Therefore, in order to experience balance, a Kahuna must learn to constantly shift and rearrange himself or herself according to the exterior world he or she is experiencing. And experience is the key.”

And no real teacher would ever withhold knowledge from anyone who was worthy to receive it. On the other hand, he or she cannot accept as a pupil someone who would misuse that knowledge or betray that trust.

Max Doubt’s response: Everyone’s entitled to their opinion. And facts are facts – you can’t argue with facts. This is the way it is – this is all there is. I believe it when I see it. I can touch it, see it, smell it – it’s real. There ain’t anything else.

OK, I can understand being true to your roots. But what’s this Hawaiian mumbo-jumbo got to do with the price of cheese?

Increase positive traits? Dunno about that. People are people, and they don’t change. I’ve been hoping the wife would change for years! Nah, you can’t teach an old dog new tricks.

My connection with my creator will be when I pop my clogs! But, I do agree with the old dame – if you’re expecting me to shave my head and wear robes then you can shove it! That’s a quick way to lose my friends all right!

There’s the physical yes – me, my car, my house and my money. And my kids. That’s the emotional part. And yeah it can be mental! Spiritual I’ll leave to the happy clappys and the bible bashers.

Listen, shit happens, that’s all there is to it. You deal with it. What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.

Balance IS ever shifting – especially after a few pints!

And as for trust – you keep your friends close, and your enemies closer.
