First off, I work at it.

I am a baby boomer. I care about people in my age group who are starting to show the signs of wear and tear and who aren’t doing anything about it. I want to help Boomers change this in a big way and I know how.

If you’re wealthy and sick, are you really wealthy? If you had a terminal disease, what would you pay to get your health back? The fact is that millions of Boomers are headed there right now unless they start doing something about it.

For the greater part of my adult life, I have been very consistent about taking care of myself. I love to feel good and I have lots of energy. Ask people that know me well and they will verify my vast reserves of energy and untiring ability to keep going after most people burn out.

I’m not a superstar, just a guy who has a system that works well for me.

I am not a tri-athlete, a marathon runner or a weight lifter. But I have amazing endurance, useable strength and overall excellent physical tone. I can’t run 26 miles but I bet I could walk 100. I can’t lift 400 pounds, but I have a healthy back and that’s what hydraulics are for – not the human body. I’m almost 56 (and that picture was taken less than two weeks ago), but most people think I’m in my 40’s and that’s not just from the way I look, it’s also how I use my body. It’s physical expression as well as surface appearance.

In my book, Healthy Wealthy Boomer: The Plan to Make the 2nd Fifty Years Better Than the 1st, I go into detail. I also wrote a companion course to implement the plan and get it working in 60 days, called “How To Look Better and Feel Better in 60 days.”

I created checklists and instructions that I keep in a binder and check off the list as I follow the program everyday. I have found this to be effective for me because it creates a visual map of my consistency, diligence and where I need to improve my efforts. At a single glance, on one sheet I can see everything I have done (or not done) for 10 days.

Over the course of the last 35 years, I have read and studied all kind of programs and been a diligent student of natural health and how to create a healthy lifestyle with the objective of a primary goal:
LONGEVITY.

Here ’s a quick summary of what I do all the time.

• I walk.
• I drink lots of water.
• I eat really healthy food and know a lot about what fuel works best for my body.
• I practice qigong regularly.
• I do Tibetan rejuvenation exercises.
• I do a 6-7 minute set on the Total Gym (although right now it is in storage in another state after a recent move and I have not retrieved it yet)
• I stretch.
• I love my body and let him know often how much I appreciate everything he does for me.
• I love myself.
• I focus on positive thoughts and language.
• I think healthy thoughts.
• I work at balancing my emotions and being present.
• I MEDITATE everyday.
• I recognize SOURCE ENERGY as the root of my strength and the source of my health and I express my gratitude every day

I do lots of other things regularly – but not every day. I choose health and always take responsibility for three things:

• What I put in my mouth everyday
• What I think about and the words I use
• How I use my time

I have developed a system that really gets long range results. It is designed to work for anybody – just regular people who want to improve themselves. You simply start wherever you are and get started doing whatever you can handle to begin with. You add more to the regimen as you develop skills, expertise and the ability to handle more.

Nothing extravagant, exotic or difficult to learn.

The key is to get started and keep doing what you can everyday. I can show you how.

I’m no super star professional athlete, just a guy who has figured out how to keep thinking right and really loves to feel good. Most of it is common sense, but it helps to have a coach to bring out the best and learn how to improve – at least until you have the system down yourself.

I’m going to start introducing live workshops, online training and various programs in the near future. I am also now focused on publishing my book with three more coming after that.

For now, if you’re feeling lousy. Do something about it.

• Start walking everyday and increase the distance as your legs get stronger and your breathing improves.
• Drink a gallon of water a day forever. Start with a few glasses of water and work up. I fill a half gallon container up 2 times a day and drink it all day long. You can drink a glass every hour. Whatever works for you. Just do it. Hydration is so important.
• Start eating smaller portions of the food you are eating right now. And eat more frequently. Cut way back on fried foods – period. Eat more raw food and organic is way better.
• Elminate toxic thinking and emotions.

None of that costs anything or is a big transition. Anybody can do what I just wrote.

• Choose to start loving yourself.
• Decide.
• Take responsibility.
• Do it.

You are perfect, whole and complete and you are loved Divinely just the way you are. There is nothing you need to change or be, just to to remember that you are perfect and really believe it.

With some practice on your part, the rest will take care of itself. Before you know it, you’ll be a healthy wealthy boomer too.

Bill Bartmann is a good man…

If there were ever a “Healthy Wealthy Boomer” role model, this is the guy. As Baby Boomers, he’s the guy we should listen to and emulate.

I first heard him speak in Orlando at a 2006 Peak Potentials event called Guerilla Business School – where I was an attendee. Then a week later I met him in LA at GBS (where this picture was taken) – only this time I was on staff.

Face to face, I was impressed by his:

• genuine humility
• consideration for other people
• grace
• mental acuity and wit

A majority of the “big guns” in the seminar circuit have huge egos. Bill Bartmann doesn’t – at least that’s my impression on a personal level and I say this from experience – not just conjecture. From June 2005 through September 2006, I was on Core Team (staff) for Peak Potentials for 26 events across north America.

In that capacity, there were many occasions to interface with speakers; often to observe them behind the scenes; how they handle themselves; how they treat staff; how prepared they were and generally what kind of people they were ‘behind the cameras’.

Bartmann is a tuned-in guy; fully conscious and present – both through astute observation as well as an active interface. He lives life fully and pays attention.

I liked him the moment I heard him say (paraphrased):

The difference between highly successful people and those who are not boils down to two words: Self esteem. I don’t consider myself to be an expert about too many things – but on this topic, I consider myself an expert.

And then he told us why…

Aside from the fact that he is a martial arts practitioner, rides Harleys, went from being a human teenage ‘gutter rat’ to becoming the 25th wealthiest man in America, he’s just the kind of guy you would want watching your back in a tough situation.

You get a sense when you meet him that you can trust his judgment and that he’s not ‘running a game’, he’s the real deal. He’s a man’s man with principles and integrity and plenty of battle scars from the street. You can tell he’s conquered his demons and come to peace with who he is. He’s not a tall man, but he is a very “large man” with an obvious command of his personal power who easily fills a large space when he enters a room.

I trusted him immediately.

When he talks about his family, he makes it clear that his family is the most important thing in his life. The rest – the money, the action, success – is all secondary to family.

He also seems to be the epitome of innovative thinking and curiosity.

Bill Bartmann is currently on a mission.

Go here to get more info why: Bartmann’s Billionaire U

He wants to turn ’small business statistics’ 180 degrees. That is to say he wants to turn the small business failure rate from 90% to 10% – and increase the success rate from 10% to 90%.

And if anybody is qualified to do this, it’s Bill Bartmann.

Historically he is a master at raising capital on Wall Street without a personal guarantee and a master entrepreneur. He has gone from a $1M in the red to becoming a billionaire by leveraging a $13K loan to buy bad paper and then revolutionizing the industry.

Bill Bartmann Tele-seminars Are Awesome…

This month I listened to a 1 hour tele-seminar with Bill – talking about the “BAIL OUT”. He made more sense on that call than all the combined drivel we have heard from politicians, talking heads and experts over the last two weeks. Here is a guy with the economic moxie, know how and experience to solve the financial problems that we face today. And he has a plan.

He talked about how to correctly approach a financial solution and discussed the parallels between our current economic situation and the savings and loan debacle 20 years ago. Hey Boomers, Bartmann told us to quit listening to the media on this subject and not to buy into the doom and gloom because savvy people can become very wealthy given our current scenario. It’s actually a time to celebrate opportunity.

It’s just a matter of knowing what to do and how to do it. And he’s going to show us.

Bill Bartmann’s mission is to create a lot of small business success stories. And I think his primary motivation is to give back – out of gratitude for his own personal success and because he loves this country and the people in it.

Putting his money where his mouth is, he has put together a 12 month training program that he calls the ‘Billionaire U” – including 24 members only tele-seminars. Even though Bill commands $13,000 for a two day live workshop and huge fees on a private coaching basis, he is offering this program for $100 a year.

Now you tell me, is that fair? Do you think he is genuinely trying to make it affordable for everybody?

I do.

Every once in a while great opportunities come along that empower us to grow and make quantum leaps in our understanding. I believe this is one of those opportunities. You will benefit so much from Bill’s training, you won’t believe the value you received twelve months from now.

I had a chance to work with Bill at the end of 2006 and based on what was happening in my life, it did not materialize. Subsequently, I have often thought that maybe this was one of the biggest mistakes in my life.

But I’m not passing up an opportunity to work with him again.

If you have not already done so – follow this link to the Bill Bartmann Billionaire Business Systems and sign up for the 12 month $100 training. Bill also has a live two day workshop coming up on Nov 22 and 23rd in Palm Springs.

Boomers, listen to this man. He knows what he is talking about.

Work At Home Boomers – Is This You?

There are a growing number of work opportunities for Baby Boomers as Corporate America is waking up to the fact that a significant percentage of the work force is getting ready to retire.  And there is a lot of talent in that retiring group.

Even so from a variety of estimates it’s clear, most Boomers are not saving enough.

Did you know? It’s estimated that:

• 4 out of 10 people over 60 will fall below the poverty line in their later years.
• And Merrill Lynch says that many people are only saving about 1/3 of what they will need after retirement.
• Only about 50% of us are saving enough to maintain a pre-retirement lifestyle when we retire.

It’s actually worse for Gen X, but they’re further down the road.

Since Boomers aren’t saving before they retire, how is working deep into retirement age going to solve the problem unless you have a lot of money stashed before you retire? These issues are compounded by the fact that we are living longer so the savings have to go a further distance. 

And we all know that no matter how much we hope it, the social security debackle is getting worse – not better.

If you want to be a wealthy boomer, the answer is making more money.
