DivineDelusionDeception?

By Alan Forrest Smith | March 9, 2010

Have you noticed…

God for cash, God for love, God for living, real God, no God, I’m God, Your God and… this is just an observation but…

I met this lady.

She was wonderful. We went for a long walk in a long open space and she spoke to me in a gentle kind manner about how her life has been revealed, opened and guided.

She used to believe in God.
Now she believes in herself as a god.

She used to rely on God.
Now she relies on herself as a godlike being.

She used to pray to God.
Now she chants endless repetitions about how she has arrived to save the World.

Now this is JUST AN OBSERVATION… but is there more and more of these people coming out of the woodwork?

She had given up everything.

Her car, her home, her husband, her regular life. She was now flat broke and had no plans. I asked her why? She replied because the Universe has plans for her, big, [...] Continue Reading…

RealRareHuman

By Alan Forrest Smith | February 25, 2010

Her name was Andromache, she was beautiful and strong like a real woman should be and used to be. Her hair was long, thick, dark and would blow in the wind like the sails of a ship blowing on the seas.

Her skinned was smoothed with exotic oils and the finest luxury care that could be afforded.

Andromache was tall, refined, stunning and every bit the Greek looking goddess she was meant to be.

Her life was a life of a Greek queen. She was worshiped as she should and would also worship the man that would give his very last breath for her. Her man was the kind of man we mostly no longer make. He was a real man, a warrior man, strong, proud, defiant and loving. Nothing could touch him, nothing could affect him, nothing could break his love for his wife. His name was Hector.

Yet here I was sitting in a Museum in Manchester across the small, aged [...] Continue Reading…

the MESSAGE

By Alan Forrest Smith | January 14, 2010

People are asking more and more about the MESSAGE.

If you are one of those I think you’ll find this quick interview about the MESSAGE interesting.

********************************
INT: So Alan, what is the MESSAGE all about?

You know, as a child growing up, developing, learning, discovering we all accept what we are told in love from our parents and most other adults in institutions like school, colleges, authorities etc. That is normal for inexperienced kids and adults right?

Yet as we begin to step into adulthood we very quickly discover that a lot of what we were told doesn’t appear to have a solid foundation in the truth of life. In fact a lot of what we have been told tends to hold us back, time and time again. This in turn can create problems for us in areas of … Relationships, health, finances and more.

Yet all of what we have been told to help us in life as we grew up was told [...] Continue Reading…

The Profit Prophets

By Alan Forrest Smith | January 11, 2010

4 Years ago Ste left his job because of the Profit Prophet’s.

He had a great home, a great car, a great wife and kids. Not anymore, 4 years ago Ste left his job.

Ste was in a rut. His job meant he woke at 6-30am, left his home at 7-15am, spent the whole day watching a clock, looking and waiting and praying for the end of the day to arrive. When it did, he got back in the car that was costing him a fortune every month, drove home to his wife, his two kids and his ideal home. He arrived home around 7pm, relaxed, got ready for bed and did it all over again.

Until one day Ste got an email.

The email promised the lifestyle he had always wanted.

The car, the holidays, the travel, the big house and work at home as much or as little as you liked.

It was exactly what Ste wanted in his life. He ordered the [...] Continue Reading…

The Logical Liar

By Alan Forrest Smith | January 4, 2010

Susan makes all her decisions on logic, pure logic, always with no exceptions.

Her teachers told her to think about it. Her parents would tell her to give it much thought. Her peers would say think it over and then decide.

Yet what Susan had been discovering in her life that there had been lots of times when her logical, well thought out decision had caused her lots of pain, regret and confusion.

Susan was faced with another choice. It was a decision to move home from a place she loved to a new place.

Logic kept telling her it be closer to work, it’ll be better for promotion, it’ll make her stronger, it won’t take long to make new friends.

When faced with the choice her heart and body said ‘NO’ in a split second yet … her logic kicked in again.

Her friends and family gave her the usual advice and Susan decided to really think this one through.

The thought of moving made [...] Continue Reading…

Cult of Significance

By Alan Forrest Smith | December 30, 2009

The cult of significance has spread like a bubonic plague amongst mankind even more so over the past 10 years and especially with the rise and rise and rise on the internet.
 
Now anyone, anywhere, anytime can be famous.
 
People are driven messages into their minds about how important they are, how special they are, how they are here for a bigger purpose and to release mankind from one thing or another.
 
This is the Cult of Significance.
 
I’m on TV… I’m significant.
 
I’m on the stage … I’m significant.
 
I’m on a website … I’m significant.
 
People look up to me … I’m significant.
 
And so on and on. But the problem is this…this insidious cult is focused mainly on one thing and one thing only… THEM! The individual, no more, no less.
 
Look how politicians have changed. I’m old enough now to be able to look back over the years and see how they are gigantically different to how they used to be.
 
Decades ago a politician [...] Continue Reading…

Happy New Year

By Alan Forrest Smith | December 27, 2009

Looking back over my past 10 years!
In just a few hours from now I’ll be in New York, USA bringing in the New Year at the famous Pink Elephant with some friends overlooking Times Square where it’ll be packed with revellers and a huge sprinkling of famous faces.

Before I get there it’ll be a time for reflection and goodbye to the ‘noughties’ and welcome to the ‘teenies’ That was a decade has taught me more about life than anything, any manual, any guide ever could.

2000: I began the year 2000 discovering something called the internet. I can see myself now as I ordered my very first home computer as the possibility of leaving hairdressing forever seemed like a reality I could actually reach by using the internet.

2001:By 2001 I was an expert at Search Engine positioning with page one positions on ALL search engines.

2002:By 2002 people were asking me [...] Continue Reading…

Law of Resolution

By Alan Forrest Smith | December 22, 2009

19 years ago on New Years Eve Dave was with his ex-wife, he made a promise to her, a new years resolution, his RESOLVE to her that things would change, he would change.

Life would get better, cash would get easier, life would get clearer. Each new year Dave entered started well and then quickly went back to his old place.

After 10 years of marriage his wife told him … change or this marriage is over.

So again for the next 5 New Years Eves Dave went over the same ritual, the same words, the same promise that clearly weren’t going to be fulfilled.

When he said his resolve, he meant it, kind of, but it was never really going to happen.

19 Years later Dave is alone wondering what went wrong. He says… next year will be different.

Why all the fuss on New Years Eve then?

New years day has it’s modern day invention as far back as 153 B.C. The whole thing [...] Continue Reading…

The Battle of YOU

By Alan Forrest Smith | December 21, 2009

There is a battle taking place right now with you, in you. It’s called … the battle for YOU.

Today you will have over 100,000 words pass before your eyes and brain. Some won’t enter, some will.
These words, messages are fighting to get you first. See what happened to Matt.

Matt was having trouble making decisions of any kind. His business wasn’t going great, in fact he was struggling big time with countless debts rising and tearing his confidence to shreds.

Talk of recession and downturns all around him never helped. His wife didn’t like it, she fought daily with him about doing better, making more money, being a success like his pals.
Matt was unhappy, sad and lifeless. With no one to turn to Matt headed for the self-help area in the bookshop. He bought books, he read them, his ideas and directions began to change. Next h went to seminars, he watched, he listened, he went away with more ideas. The [...] Continue Reading…

Old Helen Knows

By Alan Forrest Smith | December 18, 2009

Have you ever been to a Jazz club? Last night I went and was surprised by Old Helen. She is looks in her 90s. I’ll tell you about her in a second.
 
As I stood and sat by my table I looked around observing and looking at everyone. The majority were aged from 25-45 maybe 75%. The rest were older.
 
There was a group of four sat in front of me. One lady with a very funky sense of style, wearing a black Cleopatra haircut and massive smile with her blonde laughing friend, could be seen laughing and singing all night.
 
Facing them were a couple that looked all lived out. I would say they were average people, aged around 45-50. They looked much older. They were grey, looked miserable and dull. They were clearly a couple yet the distance between them was huge. They knew they shouldn’t be together.
 
She sat hunched looking at the lady singing and laughing almost hypnotized [...] Continue Reading…
