Transforming is different than change. Transform is like turning a corner. In the Lord’s Way to Wealth group I posted about the lilies of the field. Please give me this day my daily bread. Look at all the abundance, variety and plenty.Fire is a great agent of change. Fire can bring heat to be able to mold even hard things like metal. Fire refines. Fire can also destroy when left unchecked.Malinda brought up when we repent we release those shut up confined pent feelings. We give our will to God. Pent is shut up and confined. Friday’s call we talked about the prefix re-. Repent could be giving our will to God so could it be a better kind of confinement.Today I give myself permission to be transformed by fire Interactions bring understanding and feedbackI am open to transformationI am transformingI am turning the cornerI am refinedI receive the help and support I need nowI burn brighlyI am radiating the light of ChristI nourish my light and my God withinClick Here for more info on living a life of gratitude.Click Here to find out how to join the Gratitude Call live every weekday morning at 7 am Mountain Time.Click Here to join the “Breakthrough with Gratitude!” Facebook Group.

Bestselling author of We Were the Lucky Ones, Georgia Hunter, joins me to share her (mostly) historical fiction book recommendations, talk about the impact her novel had on her life and her family, and go behind-the-scenes of her recent book tour. Highlights Georgia’s discovery at age 15 that she was ¼ Jewish and that her grandparents’ were Holocaust survivors…and then, recently discovering that she’s actually ⅓ Jewish. Georgia’s grandparents’ decision to put the past behind them and not talk about their experience in the war. Georgia’s family’s reaction to having huge gaps in their personal histories filled through her research. Georgia is beginning work on a sophomore novel! What it’s like to blurb another author’s book (and her approach to writing blurbs). An All the Light We Cannot See read-alike. Georgia’s book she didn’t love is one I recommended!

Doctorow Quote: "Writing is like driving at night in the fog. You can only see as far as your headlights, but you can make the whole trip that way." Article about author Daniel Mason in New York Times Magazine: If This Book Is Not Expressing Everything, What Am I Doing With My Life? About Georgia Hunter Author Website | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram For as long as I can remember, I’ve loved to write. I penned my first “novel” when I was four years old, and titled itCharlie Walks the Beast after my father’s recently published sci-fi novel, Softly Walks the Beast. When I was eleven, I pitched an article—an Opinion piece on how I’d spend my last day if the world were about to come to an end—to the local newspaper. Since that debut in the Attleboro Sun Chronicle, my personal essays and photos have been featured in places like the New York Times “Why We Travel,” in travelgirl magazine, and on Equitrekking.com. I’ve also taken on the role of freelance copywriter in the world of adventure travel, crafting marketing materials for outfitters such as Austin Adventures and The Explorer’s Passage. In 2000, a family reunion opened my eyes to the astounding war stories of my grandfather and his family. Eight years later, armed with a digital voice recorder and a moleskin notebook, I set off to unearth and record my family’s story. I spent nearly a decade traversing the globe, interviewing family and digging up records from every possible source I could think of, eventually piecing together the bones of what would become my novel, We Were the Lucky Ones.

Here are the Show Notes: Lane is dringing Maui Brewing Company Makawao beer and POG IPA and homemade mead (honey wine), Abhi - Whiskeyhttps://abhigolhar.com/How old are you? 1985How much simple passive cash flow do you have coming in and from what investments?At this point my cashflow is a little lower because some of sfhs are offline because I'm trying to sell them and my syndications are in the ramp up stage but I'm around 3k. more importantly I have very low expenses and essentially financially free. My salary from my paycheck is 4k at the-end if taxes and that's what I use to put right back into my business. That's 3k not including my day job.- What are your healthiest habits? How do these help contribute to being your best, most productive self?Intermittent fasting. Used to do paleo but has evolved to ketoI used to do crossfit but the 225 lb deadlifts twenty one times for three rounds really got old. Its for people in their twentiesGot a trainer who won the hawaiian iron classicKeep changing goals- What do you attribute your ability to be prolific and productive to?I don't have that many distractionI got lucky with initial positive feedbackI work really hard/consistentMake tweaks frequently. If you follow me around I do weird things. or going to the restroom put coffee in microwave and then take a call like a machine- Looking back what do you wish you had done differently along your journey so far?I wish I would have gotten a personal mentor to call me out on my and minimize the hours of mental planning and scenario Q1) You mentioned that you have spent close to $60K last year in coaching & mentoring programs/events, can you share some insights on how do you determine which ones worth investing your time & money into, which aren't, and how to avoid the scammers/pitfalls? Are there ones that you recommend trying out or avoiding? Get feedback from actual students. Make sure there is no referral fee going on. Allocate a development allowance. 10 percent of your income. A mentor taught me never to speak bad of others so I won't here publicly. But if you guys get to know me I tell you what I think. Another example of going an inch wide mile deep. Q2) I've listened to most of your podcasts (and yes I did leave reviews :-)) but can't say every single one so apologize if I missed it if you shared already - how do you manage employer/manager after they learnt you were doing this REI "side gig" with the eye of quitting your day-job? I am sure quite a handful of your listens work for companies that have requirement of disclosing outside business activities that require either company/manager approval, or Compliance clearance, varying level of scrutiny , or maybe just a disclosure. What would be your words of advice or caution on how best to navigate this when one cannot fully launch into investing full-time? I have a humorous article of what to do in a day job. But honestly people don't rreally know what I do. I am a government worker who drives a mercedes at work and smiles a lot. It does not make sense. Its good that my parking lot is really big so no one really sees me. I work in a non profit so I try to respect that they are paying me for my time. Honestly if they find out I bet the “clock watchers” will become whistle-blowers. my mindset is that it won't be a bad thing. It will just pressure me to work my ass off and get out of day job and take that leap. I just like how authentic I can be in the way I work with people… In the I interviews for the this last job they asked why should we hire you? No one else has a masters degree and real world experience that I do and willing to be paid the salary level and will be happy there. If people give you a hard time this is all about lifestyle creation. Financial freedom gives you the freedom to do what you want. a recommended real is Mark Madsen “How to not give a fuck”. Its not about living life like a cavalier but opting into a conscious life of people and projects that are aligned with you. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
