JONO became empowered! One of the most potent examples of change, due to learning some tools of Power Full Ways is a young man called Jono. He was a young fourteen year old boy in the same kayak club as my sons so I saw a lot of him. Jono who was not sure of himself in general and he often sat on the beach while the others trained in the surf because he was afraid to roll, which is a necessary skill in this sport. He had a lot of fear.  He was going to New Zealand to represent Australia the following week but we all had our doubts about his success as did he! So I trained him for two hours in power techniques, with his mother at my home, because I felt he was worth the effort! He left a few days later.   Later that month I was addressing an audience of 200  adults and young people teaching them ‘sports power’ techniques as a fund raiser for our club’s next overseas tour when he arrived late waving some medals at me! He had just got home from competing against New Zealand and wanted to come to the fund raiser to show me what he had achieved. I invited him to tell my audience what he had gained by learning about his personal power. He walked up, took the microphone, spoke clearly and confidently for five minutes about how it had changed his life. He felt in command of his life and he impressed them all with his confidence! He also had a swag of gold medals he won representing Australia. He got it and used it well! Fast forward to 2010: Jono arrived on my doorstep to invite me to his 21st birthday and to see the outcome seven years on! He was excited to be able to show me that he was leading expeditions down the Zambezi River, the most difficult white water anywhere in the world, with  great daring and amazing courage. It was thrilling to see his action videos. He agreed to this story because the techniques changed his life!  SUICIDE    It usually results from feelings of despair, depression, loneliness, misunderstanding and the lack of understanding that life is much more than than they know.  I would lay on the floor and weep for hours after suicides of young people and young adults out of sheer loss and frustration at losing yet another incredible talented human being. As a teacher, back then, I often was the support for the kids left behind, dazed and confused. I knew why it happened!  I wrote the  answers in a way that young people would find it easy to understand the potential of life and make the techniques a part of everyday life. Drive the Genie Express is the first step and it works! The second was a manual to make the system a part of everyday life and it works! After self publishing and selling I was shown, by one of the young people I mentor, how to make it available widely and cheaply so now both the book ($6 US) and the manual ($4 US) are available as downloads.           Everyone can afford this now!  WHY SOME CHOOSE FRUSTRATION OVER ELATION (and many do!)  * Religious reasons: many religions to not like the idea of the Magic Genie  - they believe it is not related to God. It is and it isn’t - another paradox  and our world is full of them. The paradoxes that create confusion are covered in the book. Do I believe in God? Believe does not apply because I know  there is an Intelligent Organizing Force - I have proved it! Some people call it God, the creator..... IT has many names. * Head in the sand reasons: people do not want to see new ideas or change that threatens their ‘safety zones’, even when they are not good. * It might involve work: yes it does but it is fun and it takes the work out of the achievement category and puts it in the feeling, being and doing. It is Power Full Ways work and it create positive change. WHAT DOES IT TAKE?  MORE PROOF?  *The kids at the voluntary Self Esteem Club under my care have become high achievers at school, have illnesses under control and are confident and open minded! So many kids, young adults and parents - so much change!   * A volunteer working with two young boys in school just using the Drive The Genie Express book has changed their lives and they are progressing to high achieving citizens with hope for the future. * All the members of my sons soccer team have gone on to achieve extremely well in life. No drug addicts or problems. They all know they are responsible for creating their life!   * The Bully Out Club lasted only two months. Because they were not being bullied any more. However  this phenomena needs widespread application of Drive The Genie express methods to stop it.      * Our kayak club still wins everything because the techniques are being passed on by adults in the club who are trained in the techniques.  * Families who have the book and use it reap rewards that many parents can only dream about. * Numerous kids and young adults who have been touched by this work go on to live more rewarding lives.   SOME KIDS ARE DIFFICULT BECAUSE THEY ARE FRUSTRATED!   They know there are answers and they know that what they are feeling is real but they just can’t find the answers. The see the injustice and imbalance in the world and feel angry and rebellious or depressed!       That is why this page is called:   IT IS AMAZING IF YOU ‘GET IT’                           The aim of Power Full Ways, the Genie books and products is to teach people about the extraordinary power resource within and how to understand, manage and enhance it to get the best results in their life. They discover that they are far more powerful than they have ever realised and they need to learn to control it and drive it because it can have both positive and negative effects.    MOST PEOPLE HAVE NO IDEA Many people have no idea what this means, refuse to accept it as normal or even listen to the possibilities. I have had one person tell me that ‘I am not made up of atoms - that is too alternative for me.’ It is a scientific fact that we are made up of atoms and we do contain an incredible amount of energy.  Some people say ‘oh I know all this stuff about positive thinking’, which is great but most of them do not know what is going on when they are not using positive thinking, which is most of the time!  THE EXCITEMENT OF REALIZATION When people listen and start to experience immediate results and positive proof that ‘this ‘stuff actually works’ they get very excited and enthusiastic. The most common outcome of the first stage of learning personal power is the incredible sense of disbelief, followed by wonder, awe of what they can do from NOW on!  It isn’t counselling - it is teaching a new powerful ways of being.      Simple powerful life changing techniques!   They work well for kids, adults, groups and teams! But the best and most rewarding outcome is    AMAZING RESULTS RESULTING IN   AMAZING KIDS AND YOUNG ADULTS!  (and older adults too) Made with Xara Web Designer Created by Robyn Sharrock Disclaimer: It is not permissible to copy, distribute or sell any part of the Genie Book or Power Full Ways site information without the owners consent.
