We had the honor of meeting Nik Halik.
He was an Greek immigrant in Australia with illiterate parent.
He had the courage to make his dreams come true.
Illiterate does not mean without knowledge for understanding of life. It simply means that one cannot read or write in the language of the country that they were living in.
At the age of eight he wrote down his goals for life and his family kept him accountable.
He chose to leave home at the age of seventeen and go and be a rock star in California. He left Australia with $30,000 that he had earned working as a guitar teacher. This was enough to go to university...he chose his dream path. He did so with amazing success as he is a talented musician.
Nik was certainly was goal orientated. During the day he lead his second life as a savvy business man.
He has had inspiring life experiences. Climbing the seven highest mountains of the world, going to the depths of the Titanic and buying his way as a private individual into the Russian Space program as a cosmonaut.
The man is fearless and he says the reason for his success is that he was held accountable to his goals from early in life.
He has published a book called the Thillionaire

You be the personal brand that is Truemanity
Truemanity is a social business network promoting self growth supporting social and ecological projects worldwide.
I would describe this as the beginning stages of labor. One knows the nature of the baby...promoting self growth, having an interactive social community on the ground and on the internet, our interest and caring of the earth and the living things that inhabit this wonderful creation...the earth.
As with all things in creation as things go along the exact character becomes more clear and this is the exciting part.
We are the pioneers. Those with the vision of what we can be and enable others to be. This supportive network is the backbone to create all that we can conceive. It is energetically dynamic and our passion for the values of Truemanity will help us stay focused on the goal.
Here we are like characters in a play but we get to choose the role we play. Like in life we have amazing choices. The fun thing is that the actual you is in paying the lead role.
For myself I want to be a blogger like Chris Brogan,an innovator and entrepreneur like Guy Kawasaki,creative thinker Kathy Sierra, have the business acumen of Simon U Ford with the beautiful heart of my good friend Kathy Tarochione and be the driving force of Mari Smith on Facebook. I would also like to have the regal beauty of the Royal family of Monaco. (thought that I could add it in and push my luck a bit!)
This may be a way that we can generate a lot of interest and have many people looking and joining our community as we appreciate all that people are and the fact that they want to belong to a vibrant impactful community.

life love and loneliness
Three passions have governed my life:
The longings for love, the search for knowledge,
And unbearable pity for the suffering of [humankind].
Love brings ecstasy and relieves loneliness.
In the union of love I have seen
In a mystic miniature the prefiguring vision
Of the heavens that saints and poets have imagined.
With equal passion I have sought knowledge.
I have wished to understand the hearts of [people].
I have wished to know why the stars shine.
Love and knowledge led upwards to the heavens,
But always pity brought me back to earth;
Cries of pain reverberated in my heart
Of children in famine, of victims tortured
And of old people left helpless.
I long to alleviate the evil, but I cannot,
And I too suffer.
This has been my life; I found it worth living.
- Bertrand Russell

Facebook ...a defining moment!
A defining moment for me in life was joining Facebook.
This was the time that I decided how I would like to be and what I could be.
I decide that I would learn to be a citizen of the world and befriend those that felt the same.
There were certainly infinite possibilities and the time frame was irrelevant as long as my instinct told me that the people were the right ones to be around.
I felt that one person at a time I was learning about life and sharing what I had to share, while learning more about myself. It is a continuing process of consolidation. It is learning to set goals that I choose to live up to and finding a way to do it no matter what.... Training myself to be disciplined and
running the extra mile when the need arises.
My aim is to have enduring impact on those that I come into contact with. That they remember me for listening to them talking, sharing of myself and life, making each person feel special for being the person that they are and most of all making them laugh with me and bringing happiness into their life.
I love to grab life with both hands and this is what Simon is offering his Friends. Then to spread the concept further out.

Over the last two years I have totally transformed from a mouse to a mega-connector.
I have lived the life that forced these issues to be addressed. It became a choice do I give up or do I go the whole way and make life better not only starting with for my family, my community and globally.
It has been like standing on a main road and deciding to throw myself into the traffic...Or...riding with the traffic...or ...MAKING THE CHOICE TO DIRECT THE TRAFFIC.
It is a matter of choice ..to make a small or a big decision. The guts to take the choice and that to stick to the path until the chosen course takes place.
It turned out to have the same magnitude...at that point in time the whole picture was so bleak that it was "might as well go and choose the big picture."
My Australian Friend Serenity Raven-Wolf replied to this tread:
"I am so proud of you for you are truly brave. Only a very small % of the population go through such huge transformation. I am also proud for I know how hard that journey can be at times. It is exactly as you explain it.
Courage is not a hard recipe to make. To reach courage all you need in the recipe is to recognize the fear/doubts that come up for us (and the do come up for us all) to that you add some COMMITMENT + ACTION = COURAGE"

How to shift a paradigm!
Thank you for asking my opinion.
Where as Chris Macrae and Jeff Mowatt in my opinion both have the intellectual knowledge that is needed and are outspoken advocates of this subject...I have learned this issue form another perspective.

The internet gave us the platform to reach out to all those interested to participate. In our opinion it was not enough and that is why the concept also has grounded itself with leaders taking the lead and meeting with others for the purpose of connecting via the human touch, eye to eye.
We have had to come up we a manifest and build the vehicle with which to administer the vision. For the last two years we have been working on the substance and how to get it our there.
Truemanity is a social business network promoting self growth supporting social and ecological projects worldwide.
The Truemanity group consists of experts with rich background in the fields of self development, education, television, social empowerment, marketing and Internet.
Truemanity recognizes the power of people to create change and growth in their own lives and in their community.
Our emphasis is directed towards improvement of the current situation with patience, perseverance and faith in one another.
We are visionary leaders wishing to create a new, innovative organization that will have a dramatic impact leading to change through Internet based workshops and happenings on the ground.
We have insightful workshops that will allow one to reflect on how to evolve without coercion from external control to internal control thus experiencing freedom and creativity. This work is possible thanks to the extensive educational experience and support of a contributing team of educators, business leaders and the community itself.
We aim to touch the lives of millions of people by raising money to support projects that will help saving the planet, encourage education, personal values and growth, development of talent and community leadership.
Our aim is to equip our members with knowledge and tools for better living. We believe that supporting the world around us is crucial for our lives to be of true value.
Truemanity will reach out to touch the lives of millions by raising money to support projects that promote social empowerment, education and ecological awareness.
By bringing a few extra hundred and then thousands of dollars into the lives of many families we can make life better for those participating in the framework and we also reach out to other that lack the ability to participate at this time. Via the community donation towards empowerment we aim to raise the standard of others and in the future they too can choose to participate.
We aim to level the playing field. If you want to lead a better life – your place is here – with us.
The time to act is now.
Join us and together we will make a better world for all.
