We viewed family moves of our children growing up and great times with my Best friend Greg and his children. We laughed till it hurt. It was so much fun. The holidays are a special time of year for sure. But I am looking into the future.

I am delayed at the Salt Lake airport waiting to catch my flight to Houston to attend the annual Herriage Xmas Party. Our WMI staff will be their and many of Kips friends and neighbors. It is always a great time that I very much look forward to each year.

As I sat here thinking about what to write about, as soon as I realized the date I knew exactly what I wanted to cover. If you have read my early blogs or attended out most recent m2 in Vegas you have heard about this before.

Tomorrow, December the 19^th will mark the 25^th anniversary of the Wilberg Mine Disaster. 27 Coalminers perished that horrible day in coalmine history.

Going in on a mine rescue team to identify and recover bodies was an experience that I will obviously never forget. I remember coming home from the rescue and recovery efforts on Dec. the 23^rd. There sat my family eating a Sunday dinner together. My Mother and Father were there along with my 2 daughters and my wife.

They immediately asked me about my experience. All I could think of was the families that would no longer have their Fathers, Uncles, Grandfathers and even 1 Mother to spend Xmas with ever again. It could not have been a worst time of year for an accident of this magnitude to happen in such a close knit community.

I want to reach out to the family that lost loved ones and let you know that like you, I will never forget the losses of our Coalmine brothers and one Sister that happened that day back in 1984.

What I really want to impress on each of you this Holiday season, is just how lucky we are to have the friends and family we do in our lives. And if we are allowed the privilege to spend a few days with them this time of year, we are blessed and very fortunate. No matter what, in good times or bad, our families and friends are always there for us. Be sure to open up and share your love with them each chance you get.  Be sure they know just how much they truly mean to you. Remember that the love you take, is equal to the love you make.

Happy Holidays to you, your friends and your family.

Till Next time,

I got up this morning at 5 am to pack, shower and be ready to meet my Driver at the hotel at 5:45 am. I was maybe 3 minutes early when I arrived at the pick up area. At that very moment, I saw headlights coming around the corner and there was Don. He opened the door, got out and I said, “ Man, that is perfect timing.” And it was.

I have been in Orlando for the last few days, working on a DVD project that will impact the growth of Wealth Masters like nothing we have ever seen. I think of all that is going on around us in our world.  Chaos almost everywhere we look. I know thru WMI we can help people to reap the rewards and to be on the receiving end of the largest transfer of wealth in history. Again, I think to myself, “perfect timing.”

When I boarded my flight in Salt Lake City, I found my seat in Coach Class. I fly enough that I get upgraded to First class pretty much every time I fly.  I was somewhat disappointed that I had not been upgraded, as this was almost a 5-hour flight. Soon after I was seated, a flight Attendant came to move me from Coach to First class.  I grabbed my computer bag and headed to the front of the plane. As I sat down I immediately locked eyes with this very attractive Woman I would be sitting next too for the next few hours. As I settled in we began to carry on a conversation which ended up going on till we landed in Orlando. We laughed and shared backgrounds about our Families and our lives for the next 2500 miles. The long flight I was not looking forward to, flew by in no time because of Lilly. I said to myself, “what perfect timing.”

I wanted to share this today because I believe that every thing in life happens for a reason and timing is everything. It happens to each of us all the time. Recognize it, embrace, and give thanks for it.

Here comes breakfast as I am ending my blog entry. Once again, “Perfect Timing.”

Till Next Time

Karl

PS, Lilly, looks like I am getting that omelet and Sausage we missed out on the other day. “Perfect Timing.”

When you think of the strongest force in the universe what do you imagine? Do you picture a super nova as it explodes and send new life across millions of light years of space? Or maybe the immense power of a black hole as it captures anything in its powerful death grip to vanish into some other part of our universe? Yes the strength of cosmic events is more powerful than we can imagine. But there is another force that conquers all. It is the power of your word.

Stop and think for just a moment the impact your words have had on those around you. Think of the negative things that were said to you growing up and even as adults, that may still be imbedded in your mind. We may say negative things to others, even the people that are the closest to us and never think of how it can hurt, destroy and create wounds that may never heal.

Our word can destroy and leave opens wounds for life, but our word can also create any thing we choose. Giving someone your word and following through with your commitment or promise is true power. It may not be easy at times with our busy day to day lives, but remember you are only as good as your word.

Think about the last time that someone you don’t even know paid you a compliment. How did that make you feel? It felt amazing and we can do the same by sharing and complementing others with the power of our words. Next time someone demonstrates an act of kindness for you, take the time to share with them your positive thoughts and thank them. Let them know how good it made you feel.

When you hear people talk about the incredible like minded people in the direct sales industry, it is because we are sharing our energy and thoughts through the use of our words. Words truly are the most powerful force in the universe. We can create anything we want in ourselves and others with the proper use of our words. Let’s make a commitment today, to impact others each day with the positive power of our words. Let’s speak love, peace and prosperity into existence each and everyday for everyone. Our words are our infinite power and our words will make a difference not only in ourselves, but more importantly, in others.

Till Next time,

But I want to tell the story of her first dance in this world. Her Birth is a story worth sharing. I am sure I will have you Moms shaking your heads, maybe even some Dads out there. But here goes.

All though I don’t hunt any longer, I use to be a big time Hunter. I waited each year for the hunting season to begin. The first hunt of the year was the archery hunt. My Buddies and I would get the Bows out and practice months before the hunt so if we were to get a good shot, we would make it count.

It was a week or so into the hunt, I was hunting on the mountains west of Ephraim. I came onto a two point buck, drew back, let it fly and connected right behind the front shoulder. Perfect lung shot. I waited for a few minutes and began tracking, hopefully my dinner for months to come. I walked about 75 yards and there it was. I gutted it and drug it back to my truck. It was dark when I got home so I choose to hang it in my garage and get the hide off of it the next morning.

My Wife Joann was 9 months pregnant and was due at any time. In fact, her pregnancy was kinda of getting in the way my favorite hunt. I was constantly worried that she would go into labor and I may be hunting and miss something very special. Remember, no cell phones back then. Only CB radios and ya had to be on a mountain peak to connect with home.

That night while my kill was hanging in the garage Joann got very restless. She kept getting up from bed and coming back telling me she maybe going into labor. I asked if her water had broke and she told me no. I had been thru the Birth thing before, and figured that water had to break before you headed to the hospital. At 6 am I finally decided I better get up and get this deer taken care of because I maybe at the hospital sometime today welcoming our new baby into this world.

Joann’s mother was at our home staying and after I went out and began pelting the deer, she came out and told me that I needed to get her to the hospital. I asked again if her water had broke and how far apart were the contractions and her answers made me think we still had lots of time. Her Mother tried to call the Doctor to make sure he would be at the hospital but he was at choir practice. I was just finishing up the deer when her mother came out and yelled that I have to get her to the hospital. I walked into the house and there laid Joann. Her water had just broke and the baby was starting to crown. All of a sudden I knew we had to make a move. We still had not gotten a hold of the Doctor so I instructed her Mom to call the Hospital and tell them we are on our way. After the contraction was over, I got Joann on her feet and waddled her to the car. I got her on the passenger side of the 1977 Fury and laid the seat back. We had 14 miles to drive to the next City and a Hospital. I flew out of the drive way and was doing 110 MPH all the way to the hospital. She kept telling me it was coming out and I would tell her to hold off, we are almost there. It was tense and crazy as hell. When I came into town I slowed down to about 75 as I hit main street. Only ¾ of a mile to go. A Mt. Pleasant city Cop happen to be sitting off the side of the road as I came into town and immediately turned on the lights, sirens and began pursuit. I had no choice. I could not stop. I kept it punched . I flew into the back of the hospital to the emergency entrance and 3 nurses were waiting for us. But no Doctor!!! The cop screamed behind us, took one look at what was going on and immediately began to help anyway he could. The Male nurse wanted to deliver her right in the car. I insisted we get her on a gurney and into the delivery room. So we picked her up on the count of 3 and put her on the bed which immediately began rolling into the hospital. As we were going in the male nurse was delivering the baby. By the time we got to the delivery room Rachel was most of the way out.  As soon as she came out she began screaming, which is a good sign, but her head was all pointed ( like a cone head on Saturday night live) from pushing so hard and not being able to come out, and every blood vessel in her eyes had broken and her eyes were beat red.

I was thinking to myself, What have I Done to this child? Is she going to be ok? The Doctor finally showed up, gave her an examination and determined her to be just fine. A huge sigh of relief fell over me. It had been a crazy morning and to hear all is well was music to our ears.

If you have met Rachel, you know that everything is fine. She had brought so much happiness and joy into my life. She is not just my daughter, but my best friend too. We can talk about anything. I still remember how she would confide in me instead of her mother in those early years as a teenager.

I am blessed with 3 amazing children. Each have given me so much joy and I am a lucky Dad to have them in my life. I woke up today thinking of Rachel’s birthday tomorrow and wanted to share this story. Hope you enjoy it.

I am leaving for San Francisco tomorrow with my Son Sean. Just the boys. I am very excited to have the one on one time with him. His Birth was not near as tramatic, but you should have heard me yell when my first boy came into this world. It was heard in every hall way of the hospital. Joann’s parents were down the hall and knew when they heard my scream that I got my Son!!! Remember, back then we had no idea what were were getting.

My Oldest Daughter Jaqueline ( Who was always Daddy’s Girl)  has Blessed me with 3 gorgeous Grand children. It doesn’t get better that that. Life is good .

Be sure to tell each of your children how much they mean to you constantly.

Happy Birthday Rachel. Thank You Jaqueline, Rachel and Sean for making me who I am. Love you each more than you can imagine.

I am sitting here in amazement as our lawmakers in Washington spend our country into oblivion with no end in sight. The Federal Reserve makes this wreckless spending possible and keeps us in debt. This spending is not going to fix the problem, it is simply putting off the inevitable that will happen in the near future when it all comes crashing down. Mark my words on this. If you think the current administration'splans are going to work, you are living in la la land. Government cannot run the Amtrak and the Postal Service, and now they think they can fix Health Care? You have to be joking!!!

I can go on and on but the reason for my post today is to ask for your help to pass House Bill 2511. This is the Bill introduced by Ron Paul (the last true statesmen in Washington), and now has 282 cosponsors. I am proud to say that my representatives in Utah, both Congressmen and Senators, are backing this bill. This will finally, after almost 100 years of the Fed, let us see the books. The Chairmen of the Federal Reserve, Ben Bernake, was recently asked to go before a hearing to find out where all the money has gone, and he simply said ‘No Thanks.” It is time to get some answers. We have been under the rule of the Federal Reserve far too long and it is time to let the masses know exactly how the Fed operates. This could be the first nail in the coffin for the Fed. Let’s hope so. Remember that as evil as the Fed is,this administrationwants to give more and more power to it. Now is the time for each of us to rise up and get the job done.

If you think Karl has lost his mind, I invite you to read the book titled The Creature From Jekyll Island by G. Edward Griffin. After you have read it, you will clearly understand what I am talking about.

I have included a link to “The Campaign for Liberty,” which I am a big supporter of. Please take the time to contact your representatives and ask them to support this most important bill.  http://www.campaignforliberty.com/campaigns/hr1207home.php

Pink Floyd is one of my favorite Rock Bands of all time. They have a song that states, "United we stand, Divided we fall." Those words could not ring more true in these times.

Thanks Everyone,

Karl Bessey

I got here last Thursday late afternoon. Hit the pool for a bit, had a great dinner with friends, then hit the hay so I would be full of energy on Friday. 

After Room service on Friday morning we were ready to hit the beach. I walked a mile or two down the beach passing many people that wanted to feed like I did, off of the sounds, smells and the feels of a great beach. It felt so good to once again be in a beautiful tropical location.

Later we hooked up with a group of great friends on the beach and soon the liquids were flowing. We got a private boat to take us out on the ocean to snorkel and swim late in the day. We called it the cocktail cruise. Snorkeling is always a trip for me…anytime I can be in the water taking in the sites of fish everywhere blows my mind.

Next day came the spa. Massage, pedicure and facial. Talk about spoiled huh?

That evening I got my Wealth Masters Fix I had been craving since Lake Tahoe in March. We had our Welcome Reception for the m3 members down on Gabi Beach.  Food, friends and music. I had the privilege of meeting many new WMI members that are here in the D.R. for their first WMI event. Can you imagine your first WMI event and being at the Paradisus Spa and Resort in Beautiful Punta Cana Dominican? And to top it off, when the night skies grew dark, we even had our own firework display in celebration of the 4th of July. OFF THE CHARTS!

Our m3 Private Wealth Group Conference started yesterday morning with a bang. All attendees were touched moved and inspired after the first day came to a close. Again, what a treat this is to be here in a gorgeous location with incredible like-minded people.

We will be announcing the location of the next m3 in July of 2010 at the end of this event and trust me when I say, ‘What an Incredible lifestyle we at Wealth Masters have created for ourselves.”

Here goes the song again, and I can’t type and sing at the same time. So…’This must be just like living in paradise…and I don’t wanna go home.

Till Next time!

The Kids are out of school and are ready for that summer break of fun with friends and family.

So summer seems to rejuvenate us and we all have our outings planned sometimes months in advance, to go explore new locations in our own back yards or around the world. This is a great time of year no question about that.

But what about the dog days of summer we have all heard about? Many of us have been conditioned to believe that summer months are slow months in the sales industry. That it is difficult to make sales in July and August. To this I say Bull you know what!!!

Each of us has the unique ability to capture what we want in life. It is all about how and what we think. If you are already thinking that this summer is going to slow you and your business down, you are absolutely right. But developing the right mindset and backing it up with a solid game plan for success will ensure that your business does not falter in the least going thru these summer months.

I remember in my early days of marketing, I was told that July & August were slow. So was December. So I went into those months thinking this to be fact. My business suffered at these times because of my thought process. 

Once I got really good at this game of sales and marketing and was having so much fun I couldn’t wait to get in my office and start making calls, my belief system completely changed. You see, my bank account couldn’t even tell that the summer months or the holidays were upon us. I went into each of those months like it was just another day… another week and another month cause it was. I made sure I always had plenty of leads and people to talk to.  I was not waiting for kids to get back in school so sales will pick back up, no way. I was making it happen month in and month out and it WORKED!!!

Summer is a great time of year no doubt about that. We have all made plans for special trips and travel with our family and friends. There is time for both. I remember my best month in the business. I went backpacking in Coyote Gulch in southern Utah for 5 days the 3^rd week of the month. I came home with 20 sales and realized I could be the top sales for a one-month period, by exceeding 22 sales. What do you think I did? I called the CEO of the company and told him I was going to set a new monthly record. I rolled up my sleeves and went to work.  I knew I had one week to make it happen and I wasn’t just out to break the record.  I wanted to set it so high that it would never be broken.  When the month ended I had 27 sales. 7 sales the last week alone and my record still stands.

I wanted to share this with each of you, as I want you to achieve all you want in life. You deserve that.  Don’t get hung up in the dog days of summer or the holiday myths. Just make it happen and you will not miss a beat.

On another note, I am counting the days till the Wealth Masters International m3 in Dominican Republic. We are less that a month away and I cannot wait to hang on the beach with our WMI Family while sipping a Vodka Tonic with Lime. This event will prove to be off those charts with the incredible line up of talent we have attending this event. I PROMISE THAT BY ATTENDING THIS EVENT YOUR LIFE WILL NEVER BE THE SAME!!!

Look forward to see all of you in the DR.

Have a prosperous and fulfilling summer.

I know that for me growing up my Mother was the one strong constant in my life. I remember she would tuck me in bed each night. If I had that bad dream and woke up in the middle of the night staring at my door thinking I could see that monster there just waiting for me to get up, I would finally jump out of bed and run to my Mom to settle me down and tuck me back in.

When I was sick she waited on me hand and foot. I would lay on the couch and she would bring me my medicine and soup through out the days till I was well again.

She always took me to my violin lesson, basketball practice, baseball ….you name it she was the Go to Girl.

When I was married and raising a family my Wife Lita was the best Mom you can imagine. I was working and supporting my family many weekends as I worked overtime to pay the bills.. She wore both hats and did a superb job of teaching our children the important values in life. She still does to this day with our 3 Grandchildren.

I often wonder how Moms do it. The unconditional love that flows thru them. The patience and understanding. The forgiveness when one of the kids messed up. Getting up all hours of the night to make sure the sick kids are ok. Sleeping in that small bed with them just because they asked her to.

Yep, being a Mom is the most important role on this earth no question about that. They are the best and each of us is stronger and better because of that great relationship we had with our Mothers.

This weekend let’s be sure to share with them just how much we truly care about them and remember the positive impact they made on each of our lives.

Love ya Mom!!!

I had never been to Europe before and prior to our trip, I was trying to visualize and anticipate what it would be like being there. After a long flight we finally touched down in Budapest, then the one-hour ride to our hotel.  We checked in and were taken to our suite. When we walked in and looked out the big picture windows the view took our breath away. It was incredible.  It was very clear that there was much history to learn about in this city.

The m3 proved to be better than any of us could of imagined. Many of the break throughs’ we had together will never be forgotten and I can still see the looks in our m3 members eyes as they pushed forward to break arrows on their windpipes, or break boards with little or not effort because of the mindset development we each went through together.

After the m3 wrapped up it was then off to catch a train and head to Vienna. Again, the history, food, people were incredible.  I love food and my favorite food while there was pretty simple stuff. I fell in love with the sausage stands on the corners.  Not sure what they do to make it so good, but after stopping for a sausage and cold beer, I could not wait till I was hungry again so we could go back for more. 

After a couple days in Vienna, we hopped the train headed for Prague. Now this was a real eye opener for me. The people were not as warm and out going as the people in Budapest or Vienna. They seemed a little cold. However, one night there we went to the oldest restaurant and beer pub. This sucker was built in 1495 and still stands today. The minute you walk in they are throwing you a big mug of dark beer and later insist you take a shot of schnapps as it will make your stomach bigger so your can eat and drink more than you usually would. At least that is what they told us. Too Funny. They still had the painting on the walls, which were there when the first social gathering and beer binges took place. Again, the architecture, history, breads of all kinds and the getting lost in the many streets are memories that will never leave me.

After a few days in Prague, we jumped on board our train one last time to return to Budapest. If you have never taken a train ride in Europe make sure to do so. The big glass windows and views of the endless miles of rolling fields were so beautiful. We saw ring neck pheasants, deer, ducks and all kinds of wild life which made me feel right at home.We walked back to the dinning car, sat and were served a great meal while cruzing along enjoying the scenery. Again, new experiences that I we will never forget. This leads me to the next m3 of 2009.

We are about to announce the dates and location of the next m3. I am so excited as I know that all of us will be able to leave this event with a treasure trove of memories and experiences. NOt to mention the education and contacts. I am already thinking of places I want to visit and explore while in this Country. I have been there many times but there is so much to see that I already have my list of things I must do while there.

The content of the m3 will be mind expanding to say the least. Each event does prove to get better and better and we promise once again to under promise and over deliver.

I cannot put a price on the experiences, people and memories I have from each event I have attended over the last decade. I have been fortunate enough to travel to the Caribbean about 20 to 25times. I have now been to Europe and I have a long wish list of places I still plan on seeing before I cash in. This is what this industry has done for many others and myself.

If you have yet to become an m3 member, do so as soon as possible. It will be unlike anything you have ever experienced guaranteed!!! And the location????? Well, I can’t say anymore for now but you will know very soon.  Make sure you are taking in all life has to offer. Time flies, our lives are on cruise control, don’t let any of these experiences pass you by. Time flies' when you are having fun!!!

See ya soon at the m3,

Karl

PS, Bring he sun block and swimming suit… hint hint!!!
