			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Howdy &#8211; its late Thursday night and I am thinking about voice mail.  I know kind of odd but its true.</p>
<p>Today I called a friend of mine and got her voice mail.  It wasn&#8217;t the same old boring leave a message, or I am not here right now.  It was upbeat positive and it gave me a ton of great information about her and her product.  WOW, I thought I had a part in that.</p>
<p>You see, a while back I created <em>VoiceMail Secrets</em> an audio program that helps you do exactly what she did and more.  Its an awesome product that everyone loves and when they implement the system they get great results.  The challenge is it doesn&#8217;t have its own page, or site so not everyone knows about it.</p>
<p>Its such a great product that I have clients from over 7 years ago that I have recently come across who share with me how great my voice mail was/is and how they have been sharing my system with those on there team.  WOW, that&#8217;s a cool complement.</p>
<p>So here is the deal, its normally $29.97 but I have it on sale because I really want about 20-30 great testimonials for the product.   Right now its on sale for $9.97. <a href="http://www.autowebbusiness.com/SecureCart/SecureCart.aspx?mid=2F9306BA-0A63-4D6B-8B99-18D8F38C88C9&#038;pid=373a7c2bb1ef41d4acd14e46dc3fba32">Add to Cart</a>  Please, buy it, use it and provide me with a great testimonial.   I appreciate your help and know you will love the product.</p>
<p>Have a great day!  Benjamin</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Good evening &#8230;. its a cool summer night here in Florida on the 1st of July.  This indeed is a glorious night.  The rain cooled things off and the sound of &#8220;Some Where Over the Rainbow&#8221;  in Hawaiian style by Israel Kamakawiwoolie &#8220;What a Wonderful World&#8221; what a beautiful song.</p>
<p>What a beautiful idea &#8220;we must all exceed our own expectations&#8221; because in fact it is a wonderful world when we do!  Take a moment and think about the idea.</p>
<p>Exceed expectations &#8211; we look for it in those around us.  Perhaps not on a conscious level but we certain are aware when it doesn&#8217;t happen.  Some on cuts you off, or doesn&#8217;t give you the right change.  Your order takes to long or whatever may irk you.</p>
<p>Exceed expectations &#8211; hey there &#8211; my order was too fast, the food was too good.  Your staff was too nice and you had exactly what I wanted when I wanted it&#8230;..  Things we rarely hear.</p>
<p>We must all exceed our own expectations&#8230;go the extra mile.  Create &#8220;raving fans&#8221; ok, I know your mom is a fan but we are talking about the human race at large.  Who else loves you?  You?  You can when you exceed your own expectations.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t let yourself down.  Don&#8217;t give up just short of greatness&#8230;. you have genius and beauty in you&#8230;you have power and creativity too.  You were created in the likeness of the Almighty Creator of Heaven and Earth and He doesn&#8217;t create junk.</p>
<p>So go on out there and exceed your own expectations.  You have capacity latent within you that you have never imagined.  You have capacity that the ultra athletes on tv and in the magazines are awarded for&#8230;.the question is are you exceeding your expectations or are you playing it safe.</p>
<p>Go out risk it&#8230;.see how far you can go and then go further.  Get someone to be on your team to push you to achieve more.  To exceed what you expect.  If you run a mile or block then get someone to push you to run 3, 4 or 5 more.  If you earn $50k a year get someone to push you to earn $200k or more.  If you have a few great friends, get someone to push you to have more&#8230;.if you contribute to our society, get someone to push you to exceed your own expectations.</p>
<p>Exceed Your Own Expectations&#8230;.and I will mine.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Good Morning to all, it has been a while since I posted.  I guess you could say I was stuck in traffic.  If you know what I mean.  It took me some time to realize but, I have found a way.  </p>
<p>This past Sunday on the way home from Church we got stuck in traffic.  There was an accident on the interstate and they closed all three lanes and were feeding us off on the shoulder.  It was an interesting time.  </p>
<p>My kids 8, 6, and 4 all wanted to know why we weren&#8217;t going down the on ramp like everyone else.  Clearly, this would have been one way to beat the traffic.  Dangerous, yes.  Against the law, yes.  Beat the traffic, yes.  No we didn&#8217;t.  Then they wondered why some people were driving in the grass and so on.  Traffic can be a great teaching tool, not just for kids.</p>
<p>You see when we face traffic in our lives, jobs, careers, contracts, relationships etc, that don&#8217;t seem to be going as we like, we must decide.  How will we behave?  What will we do?  What will we not do?</p>
<p>Each day we are presented with traffic situations, that we get to make the call about.  Will we change directions for success?  Or will we be patient and wait for the traffic to clear?  There are two different methods to success.  The question is which one is right for you and your situation.</p>
<p>I tender these things to help you think about what you are going through (notice I said through) you are not stuck unless you choose to be.  Oh, you may be moving slowly in a traffic jam, but stuck never, unless by choice.  If you want to look at attitude in the crisis it will give you a good indication on which method you may choose for success.</p>
<p>I encourage you not to break the law.  Don&#8217;t violate someone else&#8217;s rules just to move you forward, don&#8217;t do the wrong thing.  Keep a positive attitude.  Look for a way around, a change in direction, or be patient and wait for things to clear.  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here is my new bio &#8211; I would love your feedback.</p>
<p>Blessed to Be Enthusiastic, Designed to Share.</p>
<p>Benjamin Turpin began speaking at 11 when he stood in for his Dad one Sunday morning.  His business experience began shortly after that 25 yrs ago in the family business.  He is a specialist in Christian Living, Sales and Leadership earning experience in the telecom, automotive and direct sales industries.</p>
<p>Benjamin&#8217;s experiences have given him unusual access to key leaders in industry and charity.  He is actively involved in his home community serving in leadership roles in the business world and Church world.</p>
<p>Benjamin has served as president in BNI (Business Network International) in Sarasota, Florida and as an Area Governor for Toastmasters International.  He has launched successful networking groups for numerous chambers of commerce throughout the South East.  He has also failed in business and moved through that to success.</p>
<p>Benjamin is a business networking specialist and has co-authored three books: 101 Networking Nuggets, Meet Me At Starbucks and Is Your Networking Working?  He is a sought after speaker at chambers of commerce and conferences.  He lives in Southwest Florida with his wife Katherine and their three children; Gabrielle, Nathanael and Abigail.</p>
<p>Your audience deserves excellence, inspiration and a connection that moves them forward.  Ben delivers that and more.  I look forward to talking with you about your program.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last week I was in   Atlanta ,   Georgia   attending a conference. While I was in the airport, returning home, I heard several people behind me beginning to clap and cheer. I immediately turned around and witnessed one of the greatest acts of patriotism I have ever seen.</p>
<p>Moving through the terminal was a group of soldiers in their camos. As they began heading to their gate, everyone (well almost everyone) was abruptly to their feet with their hands waving and cheering.</p>
<p>When I saw the soldiers, probably 30-40 of them, being applauded and cheered for, it hit me. I&#8217;m not alone. I&#8217;m not the only red-blooded American who still loves this country and supports our troops and their families.</p>
<p>Of course I immediately stopped and began clapping for these young unsung heroes who are putting their lives on the line everyday for us so we can go to school, work and home without fear or reprisal.</p>
<p>Just when I thought I could not be more proud of my country or of our service men and women, a young girl, not more than 6 or 7 years old, ran up to one of the male soldiers. He kneeled down and said &#8216;hi.&#8217;</p>
<p>The little girl then asked him if he would give something to her daddy for her.  </p>
<p>The young soldier, who didn&#8217;t look any older than maybe 22 himself, said he would try and what did she want to give to her Daddy. Then suddenly the little girl grabbed the neck of this soldier, gave him the biggest hug she could muster and then kissed him on the cheek.</p>
<p>The mother of the little girl, who said her daughter&#8217;s name was Courtney, told the young soldier that her husband was a Marine and had been in   Iraq  for 11 months now. As the mom was explaining how much her daughter Courtney missed her father, the young soldier began to tear up.</p>
<p>When this temporarily single mom was done explaining her situation, all of the soldiers huddled together for a brief second. Then one of the other servicemen pulled out a military-looking walkie-talkie. They started playing with the device and talking back and forth on it..</p>
<p>After about 10-15 seconds of this, the young soldier walked back over to Courtney, bent down and said this to her, &#8216;I spoke to your daddy and he told me to give this to you.&#8217; He then hugged this little girl that he had just met and gave her a kiss on the cheek. He finished by saying &#8216;your daddy told me to tell you that he loves you more than anything and he is coming home very soon.&#8217;</p>
<p>The mom at this point was crying almost uncontrollably and as the young soldier stood to his feet, he saluted Courtney and her mom. I was standing no more than 6 feet away from this entire event.</p>
<p>As the soldiers began to leave, heading towards their gate, people resumed their applause. As I stood there applauding and looked around, there were very few dry eyes, including my own. That young soldier in one last act of selflessness, turned around and blew a kiss to Courtney with a tear rolling down his cheek.</p>
<p>We need to remember everyday all of our soldiers and their families and thank God for them and their sacrifices. At the end of the day, it&#8217;s good to be an American.</p>
<p>RED FRIDAYS &#8212;&#8211; Very soon, you will see a great many people wearing Red every Friday. The reason? Americans who support our troops used to be called the &#8216;silent majority&#8217;. We are no longer silent, and are voicing our love for God, country and home in record breaking numbers.</p>
<p>We are not organized, boisterous or over-bearing. We get no liberal media coverage on TV, to reflect our message or our opinions. Many American, like you, me and all our friends, simply want to recognize that the vast majority of Americans supports our troops&#8230;</p>
<p>Our idea of showing solidarity and support for our troops with dignity and respect starts this Friday -and continues each and every Friday until the troops all come home, sending a deafening message that.. Every red-blooded American who supports our men and women afar will wear something red.</p>
<p>By word of mouth, press, TV &#8212; let&#8217;s make the   United States  on every Friday a sea of red much like a homecoming football game in the bleachers.</p>
<p>If every one of us who loves this country will share this with acquaintances, co-workers, friends, and family. It will not be long before the   USA  is covered in RED and it will let our troops know the once &#8216;silent&#8217; majority is on their side more than ever; certainly more than the media lets on.</p>
<p>The first thing a soldier says when asked &#8216;What can we do to make things better for you?&#8217; is&#8230;.We need your support and your prayers.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s get the word out and lead with class and dignity, by example; and wear something red every Friday.</p>
