Mastering the Art of Success(^)
HANSEN^
I saw that f or Jack and I—and I’m the visionary of the two of us and
Jack agrees with that, but he’s a genius. I ’m so lucky to have three
genius partners, if you count my wife. If you get one friend that gets to
exercise his or her genius with you it makes life better, but I’ve had
three and I ’m sure I’m not done because I’m going to live to be 126 with
options for renewal. So, faith has been critical to me. When I was
bankrupt and upside down luckily I went to see Dr. Norman Vincent
Peele at church, and two guys said, “We’re going to take you up to
Harlem to see this guy Reverend Ike.” We went to him and every
Sunday from then on I went to two churches. Now my wife goes to one
church down here and I go to a giant church up in LA with 9,000 per
servic e, and I’m on the board of directors at Agape.

Wow.

The fact is that I’m poured full of, not religion, but spiritual
understanding because I want to have spiritual discernment. I believe
we’re all spiritual beings in a spiritual u niverse. I f you will acknowledge
th at you will get to have a profound, blessed spiritual experience. Could I
go a step further?
WRIGHT^
Absolutely.

The book I’d ask you to read that fits that little model I shared,
which is instantaneous behavioral change. It is Prayer of Jabez. Have
you read my friend Bruce Wilkinson’s book?
WRIGHT^
Absolutely. Yes.
