HIGH HOPES 12/17/2001

”Anyone knows an ant… can`t… move a rubber tree plant, but he has… hi…igh

hopes, he`s got… hi…igh hopes…” That tune is from a movie with Sinatra

that came out in the late forties or early fifties. My parents took Lenny

and me to see it 4 times! They just loved that song!

How are your hopes right now? Do you have high hopes, medium hopes, low

hopes, or no hopes? Maybe some of your hopes did not come true in 2001.

Maybe you keep thinking about all those hopes you had for the New Year, and

well, one by one, those hopes disappeared.

You can`t go into the New Year – matter of fact, you can`t go into the

holiday season – with no hopes or low hopes. When you have no hope, it shows

on your face. It`s in your eyes, in your mouth – it`s an overall expression.

When there`s no hope, your body suffers, too. Your head is down, and your

shoulders are rounded. People see that, and they say to themselves, “That

person seems to be very hopeless.”

A hope is a dream! You close your eyes and you dream a grand dream of a

better job, a relationship, going back to school, losing weight and getting

healthy. Then you hope these dreams come true, and you keep saying that over

and over again! When hopes crumble around you, don`t let them lie there in

pieces on the ground. Bend down and pick up every piece, and put your hope

back together.

So what are your dreams for 2002? Do you want to buy a new car? Are you

saving for it? Do you want to excel in the workplace? Are you planning to

take courses and make yourself more knowledgeable about your career? Is one

of your biggest wishes to lose 30, 50, 80, maybe 125 pounds? And the big

question is, are you willing to work hard to get every pound off?

I hope you will join me in just 2 days for my last LIVE AUDITORIUM of the

year! The subject will be A NEW YOU IN 2002! More than anything, I want to

pump some love into your hopes. You can reach many of your dreams next year!

JOIN ME WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 19 AT 9:00 PM EST, 8:00 PM CST, 7:00 PM MST, AND

6:00 PM PST, and we’ll share our hopes and dreams together!

I promise you this auditorium is just what you need to start your eating and

exercise program right now! You will be so motivated going into the New

Year, you won`t believe it! Here`s hoping you`ll come join me!

Love,
