I was just going over my goals again, and realized I knocked out a lot of the things I wanted to achieve by September 25 – my 26th birthday.

(Lots of amazing Internet Marketers with my birthday actually – Gregg Gillies,  Bill Glazer, Feldo Nartapura (He isn’t known yet, but he will be! Met him at my Toastmaster’s, he asked me for a few tips, and he’s going full-speed-ahead! VERY impressive!), Yanik Silver, and Chris Vendilli.

And when I was at Laguna Beach last year on that random trip… that entrepreneur dude had my birthday, too.)Anyway, I digress – the goals – I’m ECSTATIC that they’re coming to fruition. I’m also really looking forward to everything else I’m going to make happen this year (not by my birthday, but this year):

I’ve decided (after 2.5 years!) that I’m finally ready for a serious relationship. I’m actually really looking forward to it. I’m also looking forward to doing a lot of huge things with my favorite charity – more on that soon. =)

My book is going to be a NY Times bestseller this year… I’ll be getting my NLP practitioner’s license (not for mind control – just because I think psychology is fascinating)…  and I can’t wait to just travel, travel, travel.Materially, I want an Aston Martin made into a convertible, a “green” mansion in California – something like this one (this is the only “dream house” I’ve found, and I’ve looked a LOT), and an American Express Centurion card.

Hrmm… I think when I get home, I’m going to type up all my goals for my blog. Seems like the right thing to do. =)

Just made a quick blog post on what I’m up to, a great book I’ve read, and more…

Here were the photo shoot pictures I was talking about. =)

The silliest things make me happy.

(…and by “windowsill”, I mean “window”. )

Grrrr, again with the bird’s nest, but I made this post at the same time as the last one.

To prove to the world that my hair is normal, here’s a picture from my photo shoot :

Thank you for indulging me. Here’s my latest video:

Geeez, my hair does not look this bird’s-nesty in regular light, I swear!

Anyway, I just found this awesome program and wanted to talk about it:

(And like I said in the video… I’d ONLY talk about it if I thought I was helping. I don’t like shameless affiliate promotions on my blog. )

So I’m sitting here on my plane – free upgrade to first class, by the way – and decided to make a new blog entry.

Cancun was absolutely AMAZING.

It was the best trip ever. Jaime and I went for 2 weeks, and the trip was broken up into 3 parts. We got to one hotel for a few days where we partied like rockstars, then we went to Club Med for a seminar for a week, and then we went to another hotel where we just relaxed and settled down.

I’ll forever hold the trip as one of my best experiences ever, but here are some of my main takeaways:

1. Intuition trumps logic every time. I don’t know why I’ve fought so hard against this for such a long time, but it’s really true. Whenever I go with my gut instinct, things work out far better than what I “think” should happen.It’s true in business, with relationships, with everything.

It used to be hard for me to justify things on emotion – “But it just feels right” – but I don’t care anymore. And I feel like most successful people agree, based on the conversations I’ve had and listened to.

2.I will never again say I’m not sure about “spirituality”. Some of the experiences I had over the weeks were absolutely mind-boggling. The way things came together for me, the experiences I went through, and the growth that came out of two weeks time… just incredible. There’s no way there isn’t something bigger out there, it’s just not possible.

3. Relaxation is AWESOME. I didn’t have the Internet for a week at Club Med (there was a storm that blew it out) and my air card wasn’t working, so I had to learn how to relax.

That might sound easy, but I’m normally a very go-go-go person. In fact, I even wrote down what relaxation felt like in my journal. But I really realized on the trip that not only is relaxation a fun feeling, but when you actually stop and take time to THINK and LISTEN TO YOURSELF – that’s when everything comes together.

So many successful people say to “center yourself”, or “meditate”, or “quiet the noise”, and I never wanted to stop long enough to do that. It’s absolutely mindboggling, though, once you do it… how much you just inherently know.

The more I learn, the more I realize that the path to success is incredibly counterintuitive. (Counterintuitive to logic, that is – definitely not counterintuitive to your intuition.)

Guess that’s it for now. I did learn some good business stuff, too, but I just shared the much more important part.
