A HUGE Harvest Moon hung over the Mountains west of Las Vegas this morning as my Uber made its’ way to the airport…

I’m compulsively early, so I’m sitting here in Maccaren Int’l Airport waiting for my 7 am flight and I want to share a little bit of the story of…

How I Struck It RICH in Vegas…..

Reflecting back on 4 days RICH in conversations and RICH new friends that is…

I stayed away from the one armed bandits of the slot machines.
I ignored the “strip”….

I focused on people.

I helped my new friend Paul overcome some limiting beliefs around dating women with one of my favorite NLP techniques.
check out the video:
Changing Limiting Beliefs around Relating

I applied another NLP technique to chivalrously assist a hot chick in a bikini to stop drinking sugary drinks while we were hanging out in a hot tub.

Sorry. No video of THAT. LOL.

In the same hot tub, at the same time, I helped a young man who was part of the video crew at my conference to install some positive beliefs about his life…

I even met a new friend, Betsy from close to home in Troy NY.

(BTW She’s coming to the Last Concert of Mark Shepard and the Rogue Mystics on Saturday Nov. 19th…. Get Tickets Now!

if you’re local to the Albany Capital District, you can meet her.

Speaking of the Last Concert, so far we have sold 31 out of the 50 total tickets so if you still want to join us AND get a painting (valued at $100 by Cowabungah International Art Evaluation LLC) you still can…

In case you missed it, I was at Kimberly Seltzer’s MakeOver Blueprint.

40 men and women flew in from around the country to explore the leading edge of style, nonverbal communication and how to get out from behind our “devices” and actually meet, converse and connect with members of our own species…

• There was a shy housewife going through a divorce and looking ahead to re-entering the dating world after 25 years of marriage.

• There were a number of women MD’s who just never had time to date in medical school… They had to learn how to take off their white coats and slip into attire that allowed them to connect with their femininity.
• There was a young man, a former football quarterback who survived a car crash with his right side paralyzed…  working on rebuilding his social life with a handicap. (He actually had 2 dates with women he’d met in the casino/hotel over the weekend!!)
• and many more amazing folks searching for love in new and resourceful ways

There were speakers,

• the CEO of E-Harmony was on hand,
• as well as the creator of “The Great Love Debate”,
• an international expert in body language and nonverbal communication,
• there were Salsa dancing lessons and
• interactive communication exercises
• as well as a hell of a lot of authentic, caring connection between men and women who, like YOU my beloved Transformation Nation are willing to GET OUT OF THEIR COMFORT ZONE and INVEST IN THEMSELVES, and TAKE ACTION to improve their lives.

Rather than bitch and moan about “the men today” or ” the women today” they worked on recognizing that wherever we go, we take ourselves with us. and Ultimately it is up to US to do the work to create the lives and experiences we desire.

I went to sing the song that I wrote for Kim Seltzer after my mind expanding MakeOver Experience back in August.

Kim is one of the most caring and authentic thought leaders working in the field of image, relationships, self improvement and dating today. She is formerly a marriage and family therapist who got tired of hearing people TALK about change and started helping people to take charge of their change.

I highly recommend that you check HER out:

Most of us there were introverts. Most of YOU are introverts. And that doesn’t have to stop you from finding love in these strange and confusing modern times.

Personally, I felt deeply confirmed that all of the old “shyness” that used to cripple me is GONE.

We can’t change our height, we can’t change our age. But we CAN change how we interact and communicate with ourselves AND each other.

It feels really hopeful.

so.
Your Mind Mastery Message for Today is this:

What if?
What if you COULD change something as immediate and simple as how you present yourself to the world through your clothing?

I started small 2 years ago by getting different glasses and getting rid of the big baggy tee shirts I was wearing to hide my middle aged middle.

I credit THAT small beginning to building the confidence to take my own game of life to the next level… I can pretty clearly see how it has helped me to increase my income. I can also see how it has helped me to attract an amazing girlfriend.

Eventually I was able to work one on one with Kim. And whether it is a coincidence or directly responsible for my trip to South Carolina last week, and my idea to actually put my dream of playing with my most beloved musicians into reality, or the gigs I’ve got coming up in CT and Queens NY, this month, stuff is shaking loose and showing up.

So my challenge today to YOU is to simply CONSIDER what it might be like to walk down the street KNOWING you look your best and present your best self, your true soul to the world?

and while you’re at it, you might want to listen to this song:

and now I have a flight to catch.

Thanks for taking the time to catch up with me.

I hope you catch a little inspiration.

and I hope you can catch the idea that you are lovable, you are worthy of love, you are a radiant being of light. Let it shine!

I love you!

Mark

p.s. my focus this week will be to seel every last one of these tickets so that some of the best musicians you will EVER hear can have a full audience. You don’t have to spend $1,000 bucks to experience transformation. Just be brave enough to leave your house and come out next Saturday to this one of a kind interactive concert event!
