ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
There are a number of people I would like to acknowledge. These people are all indirectly responsible for the writing of this book but who have impacted me deeply in my life and learning and it is that learning that spawned this book and all that I do.
To my Mom and Dad. I have no idea what I could have ended up being like without your teachings. It was through your actions I learned my core values. Honesty, integrity and ethics.
To my Uncle Bill Murphy. Such a kind gentle man with the right amount of advice and wisdom when I needed it along with a homemade Murphy burger and beer when I needed that too. The verbal kicks in the seat of one's pants didn't hurt either.
I learned so much from so many during those trying college days. Through their dedication I learned passion and many other things. Judy Hart, Rick Casey, Bob Wall, Bob Evans and so many more.
Janice Stevens. You hired me for my first job 18 years ago and understood I had to do things differently. After all those years we found each other again and we have come together to finish this book and to share our lives. This is just more proof the universe is a remarkable wondrous place to make our dreams come true.
Warren Bechard. I still tell stories about my co-op placement with you. I learned a lot including the point of the old bull young bull joke.
My best friend Glen. There is too much to say. Thank you.
My boys. I am proud of you and love you very much.
There are so many great minds who are gone now. They all touched me and I think made a difference in my life.
Uncle Ken Winegarden. Like your brother my dad, your humour and intelligence gave me many smiles and things to ponder over the years.
George Barney. My war hero math teacher who was a pilot first and a teacher second. We will meet again. Rest in peace my friend.
To so many I will never be able to shake hands with or hug who have given me the opportunity to read their written words for all of us to study. Whose message I will pledge to try to carry on to the next generation of wonderful people and help them learn to dream, believe and achieve what they want. Some of these people are still with us and I hope to have you on my stage sharing your knowledge and entertaining the people who are hungry for the information we have to give. Dale Carnegie, Earl Nightingale, Napoleon Hill, Bob Proctor, Bob Doyle, Gary Craig, and so many more.
I have read various biographies and auto biographies and learned something from each of them.
Thank you to all the people who have touched my life in various ways. You all had something to do with helping me become the person I am today and it is that person who was able to write this book.

INTRODUCTION
This book has one main purpose. To teach you the techniques to live your life by design. To dream, believe and achieve what you want. To show you how to be successful in whatever you want. Most importantly, to have a happy life, no matter what your current situation is. Yes even to live a life of passion.
In the pages of this book, you will find what some call the secrets to success. It took me years of searching, a great deal of money and a lot of time to discover these secrets. This book details what I have learned and will teach you everything you need to know to make a very big difference in your life.
You can do this! You can make the difference in your life and help others around you. It doesn't matter what your level of education is; it doesn't matter how much money you have; it doesn't even matter if you have a disability or anything else real or perceived that has held you back. I do have a few major disabilities myself. I am totally blind and have less than half my hearing. I have hands that were destroyed in my previous job. But what I also have is a strong desire to learn and grow; a need to be all I can be; a burning desire to reach levels of success that no-one ever thought I would or even could. Throughout my life, I have never given up
I did get beaten down along the way and eventually when I picked myself up, I put it all together. I learned what I was doing wrong and I learned what worked. I read many books and studied many programs. I studied people who I met throughout my life and I finally figured it out. Once I did, things totally changed in my life forever.
I will never live in fear again. I will never be alone. I will always be happy and I will always enjoy life. I will always live in love!
If this sounds like something you have heard before or the old saying 'It's too good to be true' then I am sorry. Sorry that you are still searching and I trust that your search has now ended.
I have written in this book all you will ever need to know to do, have or become anything you want. I have written it in simple terms so that you can easily grasp my teaching. I hope you enjoy the learning process that you are about to begin.
Did you know that the world has a huge problem? A vast percentage of us live in lower to middle class? Way too many of us live in poverty? So many aren't happy with their overall lives? So many dreams are unfulfilled? So many are looking for love, driving a car they don't like or living in a place they'd rather not be in? Many are stuck in an unsatisfying job just to pay the bills and yet still can't make ends meet. Some are just not feeling very happy or are not enthusiastic about life and just don't know why. I know how this feels, I was one of them.
You have in your possession right now, the answers to all these things. It is my goal to teach as many people as possible how to be successful and live their dreams. That's what this book is all about; to teach you, yes you, how to dream, believe and achieve whatever you want. Big promise?
I do realize that this may sound unbelievable to some people. I understand sceptics; to some degree I was one. No longer! I have proven that this works. I have passed on my knowledge to others who are also getting success and living a happier life.
Will you take this information, apply it and reach levels of high success? I do not know the answer to this question. I can only provide you with the information and it is totally up to you to take the time to make the difference in your life.
You are very likely going to be faced with information you have never heard before. You may even think that this information is strange. Food for thought - if you want things in your life to change then you need to change things in your life. You simply can't go on doing everything as you always have and expect a different result. That is just common sense.
I am blind and I can't hear well either. I wasn't supposed to be successful but I just wouldn't give up, at least not for long. Something told me to keep learning. I had to expand my mind with new knowledge. My story will unfold throughout this book.
The sad thing in the world today is that a high percentage of people never get ahead. I have read that over 90% of people die with almost no money in the bank. The actual number I heard was close to 98%. That is just in North America; other parts of the world are even higher. Worse yet, most of those people have not experienced or ever touched their dreams. How sad.
This means that all their lives, they were nothing more than slaves to the system. They worked all their lives for what? To end up with nothing and empty dreams! This breaks my heart.
I decided that I wasn't going to be one of these people. I knew there had to be a better way. I knew that if I thought the way everyone else did then I would be just like them. I had to open my mind. I had to learn things that others didn't know. In the following pages I will share with you all of my knowledge so you don't have to end up being one of the 98%.
I struggled, I mean really struggled. I had everything going against me. At the time of writing this book, I am still blind and over half deaf. I say this because I do plan on seeing and hearing again normally. I have been this way since my childhood. We all have our stories but I made it. I did it. Most importantly, I will continue to make it and fulfill all of my dreams.
So I can do it and have done it. Now it's your turn. It is your time to shine. I hold nothing back in this book because I want, no, I need you to succeed. This is my passion, my driving purpose. I must teach you how to get all the things you want and to become who and what you want to be. It is possible and you can do it.
I will show you how to attract amazing things. I will explain everything as simply as I can and in as much detail as you need. You can have that fancy car if that's what you really want. You can meet the love of your life if that's what you want. You can have more money. You can be the greatest at anything you want to be; a teacher, firefighter, florist, musician, wealthy, etc. Most importantly, of course, is for you to feel good. To be able to enjoy your life the way you really can and should.
I want you to think of your time reading this book as a learning journey. You need to honour your time with me. There will be things that you must learn and actions you will need to take. If you skip over any of this information or rush through it, you won't get the results you deserve. I encourage you to take your time, really understand this information and apply it in your life so you too can make a difference.
You need to read this book many times because you are learning new concepts that take practice to master. You can't possibly understand all the information I am giving you just by reading it once or twice. Keep this book close by you. Every time you read it, you will understand at a higher level.
It is when you reach that higher level that you will be able to make very real differences in your life.
Now I pull back the curtains and welcome you inside.
Michael E Winegarden
CHAPTER 1
Choose Success
The information that I am about to share with you has been around for a long time. In fact, it has been there since the beginning of time. After you have learned what I am teaching you, you will be able to see how famous people throughout time have used it to become the best in their field. Be it the rich and famous, brilliant musicians, sports stars, world leaders who have made amazing differences, leaders of industry, or those who have held monopolies. My research shows that people have known about this information for generations. 'They' have tried to keep this information to themselves; in fact some even believe that it is genetic and not learned behaviour. This is silly.
The wealthiest and most successful people know this information. Those who live in an ongoing state of bliss know this information, and they have learned
