Shoes?
I never really thought much of them until I met this month's guest.
Joshua Bingaman lived in Oklahoma and moved to Los Angeles, CA when he was seventeen
years old to start his musical career. He has written and recorded three solo albums: “Passing
Pleasures,” “Split with Justin Rice,” and “Belongings.”
He fell in love with caffeine and started selling coffee. He talks about the ins and outs of that
competitive field in this month's interview.
But it was his love for shoes that transformed his life.
As a child he collected and loved shoes. He opened his first store around 2001 in San Francisco,
CA with his brother. They would buy shoes for little and sell them for astronomical amounts.
They joined the WSA (World Shoe Association). They would go to Las Vegas where they would
meet wholesalers. They learned as they went, making badges and business cards.
Joshua's narration of doing everything “on the fly” is inspiring. It proves you don't have to know
everything in advance. You can learn as you go.
He moved to Austin, TX where he opened Helm Handmade shoes. He loved his work boots but
wanted to create something more fashionable, less heavy and less luggy that he could wear year
round. He started working with a company in Istanbul, where he took in some drawings (seven
styles) and found someone to create some molds for him.
Listening to him reveal all the steps he took taught me about how unknown the path is to
success. There is no “one way” there. But by following your passion and taking action, you can
do it too.
Joshua was driven from his passion and the people who believed in him. He believes that hard
work pays off. Even if an idea might seem foolish, it can be considered bold and courageous. He
continues to tell himself “Never quit and don’t ever stop. If you have an idea in your head, make
a decision that you want it to work and continue to work hard at it until it works.” The secret to
success is following your heart. If your heart is not in it, don’t do it. He believes in people first,
then product, then profit.
Always remember to have passion with anything you do.
This interview is packed with secrets and wisdom.
Enjoy.
Yours for Success!

As you may or may not know, I'm now a musician with four albums to my name. That's
pretty impressive when you consider that barely two years ago I couldn't sing or write songs or
play the guitar or much else. Today, I've been in Rolling Stone and Texas Music magazines.
Along this musical journey, I've met some stars and they've shared their secrets with me.
One of them is so good at helping musicians market their music that I decided to pick his brain
for you. And that's what this month's Hypnotic Gold interview will reveal -- the marketing
secrets of successful musicians that you can use today for your own business.
You're going to love this one.
- Bob Baker, over the past 20 years, against all odds, established himself as one of the most
recognized experts in the world on the topic of music marketing.
- In his 20s, Bob started publishing a local music newspaper with no experience.
- Bob is the author of the following titles:
Bob reveals his own special marketing method in this interview. He calls it “Octopus
Marketing.” It has “legs” to it, which Bob explains.
Bob talks about YouTube, content marketing, and much more.
He says his favorite quote is:
“Do what you can with what you have right where you are.” – Teddy Roosevelt
With that in mind, why not give this amazing interview all your attention right now?
Rock on!

I've often wondered how Olympic athletes think differently than the rest of us. After all,
they perform what appears to be physically impossible feats. How?
What is their mindset to get past limitations?
How do they control their thoughts to achieve the success they do?
What can you and I learn from their mindset to help us achieve record-breaking
success in life and business?
You'll find the answers in this month's breakthrough Hypnotic Gold interview. You're
going to hear me interview a world renowned performance psychologist who's been
featured on Oprah - who has coached fortune 500 CEO’s and five Olympic Gold
Medalists.
Her name is Dr. JoAnn Dahlkoetter. She is a Champion Athlete – winner of the San
Francisco Marathon and 2nd woman in the world for the championship Hawaii Iron Man
Triathlon.
She's been featured on NBC, BBC, Fox news and ABC as an expert for the Olympics.
She has done skydiving, rock climbing, kayaking and has ridden her bicycle across the
USA.
She's also the author of best-selling book called Your Performing Edge: The Complete
Mind-Body Guide for Excellence in Sports, Health and Life
In my truly mind expanding and enriching interview with her, we cover a lot of ground,
including –
And LOTS more…
Dr. JoAnn is an experienced and dynamic person, who is open and informative. She
answers all of my questions with completion.
After she reveals the secrets of Olympic thinking, you might want to do a few things
differently in your life and business.
It all begins RIGHT NOW.
Go for it!
Yours for Success,
Dr. Joe Vitale
What does it really take to succeed in today’s world?
Do you really need time, money, or resources?
What if there was an inside track to success?
This month’s Hypnotic Gold interview will inspire you as it reveals one man’s quest for
success that led to an appearance in a hit movie, bestselling books, a mailing list of 400,000
people, and more -- all starting with virtually nothing -- including barely a good idea and a list of
36 names!
I’m talking about Mike Dooley. He’s a fellow star in the movie, "The Secret." He’s a Law
of Attraction expert, bestselling author, a former tax consultant, t-shirt company salesman, and
the founder of a club that has 400,000 members in 182 countries -- and growing!
How did he accomplish all this?
What can you learn from him?
You’ll find out in this month’s rocking interview. Mike tells it like it is as we cover all of
this and more:
I found this interview to be awe-inspiring. Mike reminded me that the universe works through
you, not for you. This means you must take action.
As Mike explains in this amazing interview, you don’t wish for a million bucks and open the
door and there it is. It’s a series of nuances in your life that brush you here, or make you go there.
Never think that because today nothing happens, that tonight might not rock your world. (Like
the call from Rhonda and Glenda wanting to do the documentary for the hit movie "The Secret").
Mike also explains…
95% of people you ask will be willing to help in some way. They feel fulfilled in sharing their
knowledge. And Mike explains how he used this secret to create his first product -- almost out of
thin air!
I personally know Mike and am constantly inspired by him. Take action right now and pop the
CD in your player and start taking notes.
Yours for Success,
Dr. Joe Vitale
Announcing A Leading Edge Thinker Reveals the Secrets to Social Change and Entrepreneurial Wealth and Challenges You to Take the 'Vow of Abundance'
One of my favorite people to interview is Dr. Gene Landrum. If you've been a subscriber for a long
time, you know who this true genius is.
Gene launched 5 companies and took 3 of them to $100,000,000.00 in two years. He was first president
of Chuck E.Cheese pizza. He's a prolific author, having written Warriors Who Win, The Innovative
Mind, The Superman Syndrome, Paranoia and Power, and more. Now he's written Sales Psychology.
In this month's Hypnotic Gold interview, we explore the art of sales psychology. As you may know,
Gene is a storyteller, detailed in his answers, and a practical entrepreneur. He works in the real world
and wants real world results. And he gets them.
Now he wants to help you get them, too.
You'll hear us explore such topics as –
You'll love Dr. Gene's “Can Con Dance.” It's a way to get yourself to do what you might otherwise
think is difficult or even impossible. This one method alone can transform not just your sales, but your
entire life!
Gene doesn't stop there, either.
He goes on to reveal the story of the founder of Costco, Solomon Price. He said “The essence of
merchandising is the intelligent loss of sales. You must price your products as if you were buying it. If
it sells, then find out if you can buy it.”
Of course, Gene also talks about selling on the Internet, as well.
More than that, Gene is a wise, experienced teacher who reveals great truths, such as:
All truth is false with more awareness.
He explains what that means in our interview.
He also talks about Steve Jobs and more.
Gene is the kind of genius who does the research for you, uncovers the secrets for you, and then
explains them to you in a way you can begin to use today.
I know my life is better for knowing Gene and what he teaches.
Please drop everything and give this interview your full attention.
Enjoy!

My father taught me that without your health, you can't enjoy life, let alone have
the energy to work on your business or take care of your family.
As I've gotten older -- I turned 58 last month -- I'm even more aware of his
advice.
But what are we supposed to do in an age when there's so much information,
and so much of it actually conflicts?
What are we supposed to do in a sea of advice?
I have the answer in this month's exciting issue of Hypnotic Gold.
You're going to hear me interview Dr. Marcus Gitterle, author of the
breakthrough new book, Growing Young: A Doctor’s Guide to the New
Anti-Aging.
Dr. Gitterle is a genius. He's the Founder of Ideal Nutrition and Frontier
Nutritional Research, consultant to other physicians seeking innovative anti-aging
and integrative wellness, a graduate of The University of Texas Medical School at
San Antonio and a member of the Clinical Faculty of The University of Texas
Health Science Center at San Antonio. He's also one of the first physicians to
pass a demanding board examination for the American Board of Anti-Aging
Medicine.
Clearly, he's the expert on growing young.
But what are his secrets and discoveries?
In this month's interview, we cover a lot of ground to help you feel your best. At
the heart of the program is the Synergy Matrix. But we also cover --
What is your understanding of aging?
What's wrong with the hormone HCH?
What's a supplement we can take right now to even help stop cancer?
What's the best diet for us today?
What does “no grain, no cane” mean?
What are the 9 causes of aging?
What's a key supplement for increasing brain power?
If you're at all interested in "youth-ing" (the opposite of aging), want to save
thousands of dollars a month on drugs and supplements, and would like to stay
out of the hospital so you have more time for the fun things in life, drop
everything else and give this interview your undivided attention.
It's what the doctor ordered.
To Your Good Health!
Dr. Joe Vitale
Brace yourself. This may be the most controversial – and yet freeing – Hypnotic Gold interview
you've ever heard.
Why do I say that?
For years now I've been teaching that the phrase “Money is the root of all evil” is not only
erroneous, but it has been preventing you from making money. After all, why would you want
more money if you thought it was evil?
To uncover the truth about such statements – and to find other ones that may have been holding
you back till now – I went and found an expert on the subject.
Kalinda Rose Stevenson has a PhD. in biblical studies from the Graduate Theological Union in
Berkeley,Cal. And a Masters of Divinity Degree from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary.
As well as other books, she has published Jesus and Money Freedom, Freedom from Bad Bible
Belief about Jesus and Money- Bible Verses New ones include Can a Rich Man get into Heaven
and Freedom from the Salvation Trap
This month's amazing interview reveals seven principles that will help you attract moneyunconscious
beliefs that stop us, including -
Money is the root of all ------
Other biblical misquotes that affect your ability to attract money too
She is the creator of :FREEDOM FROM BAD BIBLE series of books and websites
Helps people who believe they must choose between God and Money
Bible verses that create powerful weapons that create guilt, fear, confusion and anxiety
about money
It doesn’t matter whether you read the bible or not, these beliefs are in the atmosphere
Everyone “knows” a rich man cannot get into heaven, and money is the root of all evil.
Whether they believe it or not, it’s there
Dr. Stevenson's Basic principle is this: When someone says “The bible says this is about
anything, it probably doesn’t.”
This is an eye-opening interview.
Please keep an open mind while listening.
No one is asking you to give up or change your religion, but I am asking you to think about what
you have been taught about money, success, wealth, and so forth.
Dr. Stevenson explains that the original bible was just pieces of scattered pages. When you hear
her describe how books were made and recorded, you'll get a true understanding at how
confusing the statements might be.
This month's interview is to help break you free – free so you can have, do, or be what you can
imagine.
After all, you deserve success, right?
To Your Success!
Dr. Joe Vitale
I've known for a long time that the fear of success is almost as powerful as the fear of
failure in stopping people from achieving their goals.
The thing is, what do you do about those fears?
The good news for you is I found a Harvard Medical School clinical professor of
psychiatry who has the solution – and I interviewed him for this month's Hypnotic Gold.
Dr. Pillay is an authority on fear and stress and even the Law of Attraction. Assistant
Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School, certified master coach, CEO of
Neurobusiness Group, he writes blogs and articles for Huffington Post, Psychology Today, the
Boomer Tennis.net , Intent.com, etc. He's written 3 books: Life Unlocked: 7 Revolutionary
Lessons to Overcome Fear, Your Brain and Business: The Neuroscience of Great Leaders, The
Science behind the Law of Attraction.
I love all three books but the interview focuses on “Life Unblocked” and the seven
secrets in it for overcoming fear. Our interview covered a lot of ground, including:
How the unconscious mind is just as powerful as the conscious mind in our decision
making processes
How unconscious fears maybe holding you back from success. The fear center is
connected to the decision making part of the brain. Subliminal fear.
How the unconscious brain can “see things that our conscious mind doesn’t perceive and
reacts to “save us from perceived discomfort and danger” example – blind person shown
a disturbing picture – the amygdale lights up even though the conscious eyes take in
nothing.
How to identify those fears that crop up so we can “override our subconscious”
Obviously, there's much covered here, including common fears of success, which are as
stressful as the fear of failure. For example:
- Loneliness at the top
- Being Misunderstood
- Directionless after success
- People wanting things from you
- Trying to maintain that success and not disappoint others
So what do we do to resolve all this?
Dr. Pillay offers solutions in our interview. We talked about other things, too, such as --
What is the law of attraction?
Ability to bring things to you without a great deal of energy expended to get it. The universe will
co-operate with you if your brain is in an optimal state. Self-talk matters
Optimism and Pessimism
When you are in a state of fear, the world appears threatening and your brain is concentrating on
identifying those threats. Keep a journal of positive events
Forgiveness
Self-forgiveness is really key – decreases conflicts in your brain- creates peace Give yourself
permission to live a fruitful life Holding on to pain – re- creates it not prevents new pain from
happening Snoop Dogs – Drop It Like It’s Hot – about moving on and dropping anything unsupportive
Brain and Spirituality
The ability to look beyond the concrete
This is one of my all-time favorite interviews. I think you'll love it.
Enjoy!
Dr. Joe Vitale
This is so exciting that I had to find and interview one of the most famous scientists behind
this amazing discovery!
Dr Jeffery Schwartz is a medical doctor, research psychiatrist and researcher in the field
of self-directed neural plasticity and author of over 100 books, including the new one, You Are
Not Your Brain.
I interviewed Dr. Schwartz for you. This medical doctor, psychiatrist, and researcher
exudes high-energy, has deep faith, and loves his work. He was adviser for Martin
Scorsese’s film, Aviator, about Howard Hughes. Now Schwartz is helping people like you
and me learn to rewire our brains so we can get the results we want and become the
people we long to be.
At the heart of his breakthrough approach is the understanding that you are something other than
the material. That’s why you can be separate from your brain, mindful of it, and actually rewrite
it. Hence the title of his book.
Dr. Schwartz is a man of science, wrote a mesmerizing science-based book in 2002 called, The
Mind and the Brain: Neuroplasticity and the Power of Mental Force, and yet he is also a
spiritual man, and isn’t afraid to say so.
He doesn’t declare where thoughts come from, but suggests some of them serve you and others
are “deceptive brain messages.” The latter you can learn to hear but not obey.
I told Dr. Schwartz that in most of my books, such as The Attractor Factor, I call limiting beliefs
what he calls deceptive brain messages. Both are thoughts that don’t serve your highest goals.
I interviewed him for you for this month's issue of Hypnotic Gold. Along the way we discussed
such things as -
Willpower - Willpower is the effort that you make to direct your attention. One of the
things we’re trying to do is get your mental images to work for you so that it enhances
your capacity to direct your attention adaptively, which translates into enhancing your
capacity to use your willpower effectively to help yourself
His Four Step Process – change begins with this clear formula
Decisions - using the term deceptive brain message which is a big part of the book – you
are trying to fine your true self. You’re trying to find your true self by what we call the
wise advocate. The wise advocate is a key, key part of the book and wise advocate is
very much similar to mindful awareness, very related to mindful awareness.
That you have something inside you or a capacity to direct your mind that goes above
what your brain is sending you, but you still have to make the decision to listen to it, to
pay attention. To go with the good and not with the bad. To go with the wholesome and
not the unwholesome and calling it a brain message is a way that we came up with to
make people realize this doesn’t have to be yourself. It might be your brain and it might
be your brain right now, but your brain can change
That’s changeable by having a higher concept of what the self is capable of and being the
self you want to be and using your wise advocate to direct you to become the self you
want to be. So the deceptive brain message concept interfaces with the wise advocate
true self-concept by saying, “Your brain is sending you a lot of bad messages that are not
the self you want to be. Focus on the self you want to be. Form mental images and direct
your willpower in ways that enhance your capacity to become the self you want to be and
when you direct your attention in that way your brain will become the brain you want it
to be and those deceptive brain messages will diminish markedly and often go away
You'll love this in-depth interview.
As usual, get out paper and pen and takes notes!
Yours for Success,
Dr. Joe Vitale
