Cloud 9.

Definition by UrbanDictionary

- a feeling of extreme happiness or euphoria, feeling like you're floating on air. Also spelled "cloud nine."
Today was such a great day. I feel like I'm floating on cloud 9!

Yesterday I attended a seminar in Rotterdam. I got invited by a friend and together with a group of in total 6 people we went to learn more about 'The Millionaire's Mindset'. After an energetic and insightful seminar, there was a certain energy field among the six of us (I didn't know three of them, it was the first time I met them). A positive vibe, a knowing and feeling we were about to get it. Get what? The roots and basic principles that will lead us to Financial freedom/wealth.

After the seminar, the six of us started to consider attending an event somewhere in April 2011, which they (the speaker/organization) of course tried to persuade us to sign up for and pay lots of money --> BUT OH NO WAIT! discount this and that and special offer because this and that. The 6 of us analyzed the psychological tricks and concluded that despite the tricks, we felt that this upcoming seminar was worth the 'special' price. If you are interested in attending one than send me an e-mail. I will see where I can get the info for you. Expect that prices of attending seminars like these to cost around 500 to 1000 euros. About 120 euro's p.p. if you manage to gather 5 friends to come along with you.

If you would like to know EXACTLY what was said, click on the link below. I watched this one before I went to the seminar and I found out that 85% was the same information with the same type of jokes and same psychological tricks to get people involved. I actually thought the video was lame. However, it is different when you are actually attending the seminar and ACTIVELY participate. Can you imagine how skeptical I became when I found out that everything that was being said I had just seen on Youtube? Due to peer pressure, curiosity and the feeling that the speaker was genuine I gave it a try to become active instead of passive and skeptical and found that that I become more aware of what was being said. It might be unoriginal, but Pa Joof (the speaker) made it real and lively. It was anything but boring. Link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uXotszQveAI

Besides a few things, I already forgot what he said. But it was really worth going, not just because of the seminar.

At one moment, one of my friends said: 'Hey, I'm setting up a mastermind group. We we will come together once a month to talk about the things that we are working on and try to help each other out'. Which is a great idea, because nobody knows it all and everyone has his or her unique talents to bring to the table. We started to tell each other what keeps us busy and during the train ride back to Amsterdam we had lots of random talking going on. The energy was still positive and pleasant, random people around us couldn't help but listening and wanting to join the conversations. Because of the positive vibe, I see potential for us coming together and make things happen together. I'm sure in love with the idea of it.
