This week I attended Accelerate Live, a four-day event held by David Neagle. The Founder of Life is Now, Inc., David is a very highly regarded income acceleration mentor and giant in the personal development field.
Having mentored a large number of hugely-successful proteges, he has certainly unlocked the door to financial success as well as other areas where success can be defined and measured.
The entire event was extremely well-staged and choreographed, and with a support team in place — including his team of personally-trained coaches — that allowed David to do what he does best…teach from stage.
On a personal note I found it very cool that his mentor was Bob Proctor, upon whom the character Pindar in John David Mann’s and my book, The Go-Giver is loosely based.
While the event’s theme was Influence it was really all about living a life of both personal and professional success. The first two days were more about mindset; the last couple of days more about strategy. Yet, even within the strategic how-to…there was always mindset.
Why? Because it’s always about mindset. We are all human beings constantly dealing with ourselves as well as with other human beings. If we don’t feel good about ourselves; if we don’t see ourselves as winners, if we don’t feel abundant then it’s awfully difficult to influence another person that they will be better off by doing business with us.
Of the many gems shared by David here are just a few:
- “Create in your mind what you want to accomplish, then grow into the person who accomplishes it.”
- “Most will only go after what they think they can accomplish; not what they really want.”
- “How does your prospective client know — just by being in your presence — that you can help them?”
- “People hear with their ears but they listen with their emotions.”
- “Hope or wish is {a representation of} internal or external discomfort. It doesn’t mean they want to change.”
- “Help them get to the point where they can choose to change for themselves.”
- “When around negative people, the moment you stop consciously rejecting it, you start subconsciously accepting it.”
An abundance mindset with a true focus on bringing value to others leads to powerful influence. Terrific event and valuable lessons!

This post spoke to me in great depths. Firstly, I am starting to realize that genuine success begins by having extreme clarity in what we want. I have also learned from reading this, that I receive not because I at times think in the abundance mindset of which will attract more. I want to thank you so much Bob for sharing on David Neagle’s event. Very thought provoking……..
