Regardless of your belief system, you have to admit that this is a pretty solid idea. But does it apply to governments as well as individuals? In this episode Sean and I have an provocative discussion that is sure to raise the hackles of more than a few people.

“Jesus used stories when he spoke to the people. In fact, he did not tell them anything without using stories.” Matthew 13:34 (CEV)
So it seems to me that storytelling might be a good way to spread your message.

Spiritual FoundationsOur word for this episode comes from Ephesians 4:29, “Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers.”
We all know what happens if your computer gets a corrupted hard drive. It’s been infected and is no longer capable of properly performing the task it was assigned.
The same is true for the words you speak. If they are infected with negative and hurtful attitudes they are no longer capable of performing the task they were given from God.
What is that task?
Your words were designed to edify, uplift, and encourage those around you…and yourself.
Selah.
Tip of the WeekOur tip of the week, not surprisingly, is connected to our guest Jeff Goins and his new book, “Real Artists Don’t Starve: Timeless Strategies for Thriving in the New Creative Age.”
One of the things I love most about this book is that it debunks the myth of the starving artist.
As a side note, be sure to listen to the interview before you buy the book because he has a link that will hook you up with a couple hundred dollar’s-worth of free bonuses!

Tip Of The WeekIf one of your goals this year is to take a trip…enroll in course…get in better shape…or anything else you’re likely to not do when it’s no longer convenient…today’s tip is for you!
Most of us struggle to achieve our goals, that’s because there’s a big difference between having a goal and achieving a goal—stickK works by helping people eliminate this gap by using a Commitment Contract.
A Commitment Contract is a binding agreement you sign with yourself to ensure that you follow through with your intentions—and it does this by utilizing the psychological power of loss aversion and accountability to drive behavior change.
By asking users to sign Commitment Contracts, stickK helps users define their goal, acknowledge what it’ll take to accomplish it, and leverage the power of putting money on the line to turn that goal into a reality.

Quote Worth NoteSeth Godin tells this story in “What To Do When It’s Your Turn (And It’s Always Your Turn”…
“Stephen King, one of the most beloved, famous and bestselling authors ever, often goes to writer’s conferences. After he talks for a little bit he says, ‘Any questions?’
Inevitably, someone raises their hand—I’m paraphrasing here—and says, ‘Mr. King, you are one of the most beloved, famous, and bestselling authors ever. What kind of pencil do you use to write your books?’ It’s almost as if knowing what kind of pencil Stephen King uses will help them be more like Stephen King.”
It’s not the pencil.
It’s not the computer.
It’s not the app.
Or as they say in music… “It’s not the gear, it’s the ear.”

Feature Segment: “10 Commandments of Hiring a Copywriter”Maybe you’ve tried to hire a copywriter in the past, but you had a bad experience with The 7 Deadly Copywriter Sins:
You’d like to hire a pro, but you can’t afford the fees of an “A-List Copywriter” (Ray’s current minimum is $250,000 up-front, plus a percentage of sales, for a “Private Client Launch Package”.) Yikes!
You’re frustrated because it seems like the biggest “X-Factor” in your product launch is the copy, and you are afraid neither you nor your team is good enough to get it right.
The 10 Commandments of Hiring a Copywriter
i. Scope: Thy copywriter shalt help you determine exactly what type of copy you’ll need, and how much copy you’ll need to bring you the results you seek.
ii. Voice: Thy copywriter shalt spend time with you and your material to learn your unique voice, and then infuse that voice into your copy. Your voice is what differentiates you from the crowd.
iii. Deadline: Thy copywriter shalt deliver your copy on time…every time. If he doth not, woe unto them, and they shalt be cast into outer darkness.
iv. Milestones: Thy copywriter shalt set up mile markers along the way during your project so that you can be consistently confident that your project is receiving the loving care it deserves.
v. Communication: Thy copywriter shalt check in with you throughout the process to get your input and make absolutely certain that you’re thrilled with the hand-crafted copy thou receiveth.
vi. Revisions: Thy copywriter shalt continue to work with you until thou art thrilled.
vii. Proofreading: Thy copywriter shalt have thy copy proofread, and ensure the text is error-fee.
viii. Review: Thy copywriter shalt put thy copy under the watchful eye of a mentor or other senior copywriter.
ix. Results: Thy copywriter shalt have a track record of results.
x. Followup: Thy copywriter shalt NOT just hand off your project and wish you luck. Thy copywriter shalt be there if things go sideways ready to swoop in and save the day!

Are you tired of feeling sick, broke or like you are a failure? Today we go through the 12 principles of Think and Grow Rich, how to focus on your one thing, talk about being decisive people like the Disciples, and how to to get the best audio quality in your podcast.
Click here to download or listen to this episode now.
Tip of the Week: Fix Your Podcast AudioIf your podcast quietly is less than perfect, hire someone to edit it for you. Get rid of distractions and background noise in your audio. Make your podcast more user-friendly. Danny Ozment, from Emerald City Productions, tells us how important the sound quality of your podcast is. Not only does it help your listeners create a relationship with you, it increases their ability to understand and listen while on the go. Don’t just hire anybody to help edit your podcast, but hire someone who really knows what they are doing.
Spiritual Foundations: Be DecisiveBe a decisive human being. When we are decisive, it demonstrates our faith. We know Who we are, WHOSE we are, and WHAT we stand for. It is easy to make decisions based on our morals and beliefs if we are decisive. Look at the Disciples, Jesus said “Come, follow me” and they did. They didn’t have to pray about it or ask someone if they should- they just did.
Feature Presentation “The One Thing That Causes You To Fail- Or Succeed“What is your one thing? Napoleon Hill decided to take on the book Think And Grow Rich in a matter of 60-seconds, and he took 20 years to finish it. Do you think that he was happy that he persevered and finished that project? It became his grand obsession for him, and I can relate. When I took Michael Hyatt’s “Best Year Ever” challenge in 2015, it became my grand obsession. I made having my best year ever, and my best life ever my destiny. If you think your destination is about what is set out for you., you are wrong. Your destiny is where you end up based on the past you decide to take. So, what have you decided your destiny is?
I always suggest people sit down and write out their perfect day to help achieve their destiny. I want you to sit down and write out every detail of what your perfect day would be. Every detail from the start of your day until your head hits the pillow at night. It should be at least 3 or 4 pages long. Were you bold enough? Is it really your perfect day?
Now, you don't need some complicated plan or scheme to accomplish this “perfect day/perfect living”. You just need to focus on your 1 thing- your unique wisdom and knowledge only you have that you can share with others. As John Lee Dumas says- FOCUS.
F-Follow
O- One
C- Course
U- Until
S- Success
And Follow the 12-Principles of Think And Grow Rich
So really, the ONE THING that causes you to fail or succeed is how you pursue your ONE THING.

Don’t worry, we’ll continue to focus on:

If you get these phases out of order you will have problems. If you are frustrated with lack of traction in building your personal brand online, chances are you’re out of sequence.

Tip of the WeekIt’s common knowledge but it’s not common practice, “Carry a pen and a notebook with you at all times.”
The reasons for your pen and notebook:
Capturing your thoughts and your best ideas is invaluable.
If you’re a writer, this is required. “ Writers are the ones with the pens and the notebooks.” (4:40)
Spiritual FoundationsThe Dream… Should you pursue your dreams? God is the giver of dreams.
Proverbs 18:16, “A man’s gifts make room for him and brings him before great men.”
“The world needs your message.” — Ray Edwards

Spiritual FoundationsI believe we often don't see God's miraculous intervention in our lives because we don't believe he'll do it…and we don't ask.
We believe God for little, vague things that don't put our faith to the test.
Pray that God will relieve our back pain? No problem.
Pray that God will heal a killer disease like cancer? Somehow we think that is harder for God.
Yet God says in His word, “Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh. Is there anything too hard for Me?”
Just know that whatever you're facing, God has what you need and He's ready, willing, and able to supply you with it.
In this episode I’ll share some astounding examples that prove once and for all that nothing is too hard for God.

Spiritual FoundationsAn indicator of someone’s character and integrity is how they handle their possessions. Paul stated in Philippians 4, “I know how to get along with humble means, and I also know how to live in prosperity. In any and all circumstances, I have learned the secret of being filled and going hungry, both of abundance and suffering need. I can do all things through Him who strengthens me.”
Paul was actually talking about wealth in this circumstance. He was saying, “I've had a lot and I’ve had very little, and I’ve learned to be content in both circumstances. I can handle either situation through Christ who strengthens me.” Powerful advice! (3:00)

Spiritual Foundations: Be DecisiveThere is nothing we can do to get into heaven. We all try to align ourselves with our creator, so we can live in his kingdom by doing things on this earth, and we do not need to do that anymore! All we need to do is have faith in Jesus Christ. That is the only thing we need to do to enter the kingdom.
In the old covenant with God, we had to have ceremonious sacrifices in order to be cleaned in the eyes of God. When Jesus came, He removed the need for that system. The work was all done by Jesus Christ, and now we no longer have to do it. So now we are just supposed to enjoy God's approval. You are perfect just the way you are. You do not need to be something different. Just be who you are.
Feature Presentation “Change Your Thinking And Change Your Life“After being the Podcast Answer-Man, for so long, Cliff Ravenscraft decided to push that all away, and completely do something totally different. Why? Because he knew he was made to encourage, educate and inspire people and he wanted to help people live their best life. If you have hope, you have influence. Are you living the life that you are created to live? Find a mentor to motivate you and hold you accountable for your actions and your outcome. You have to shift your identity and what you are saying to yourself. Even though there are other people that teach what you may do, only you can do it and reach the people who would identify with you.
Cliff suggests reading the ‘Big Leap” by Gay Hendricks. It teaches you to work within your zone of genius, where you can make the greatest impact. What will it take to get to do the things you love to do 80% of your day. What do you have to do to make that possible? Your language and what you tell yourself is so important. You have to make a decision to do what you want to do with no other possibilities or wavering.
Free the dream is for people who have a dream inside of them that says I wonder what life could be like if I do _____. It is for anyone who is on the fence and doesn't know what their dream is, and also for those who had the dream, left their day job, and are struggling to succeed because they feel sleazy trying to sell their product. Free the dream will help to ignite you and your dream and set it into motion. Go to Cliff's event!
