The Greatest Gift I Ever Received.....I had Inside Me!

The Greatest Gift I ever Received.......... I had inside Me! written by Jay Simons Dec '09

I guess I've always been a "People Pleaser". Not entirely because of Noble Reasoning, moreover because I am a true believer in "Universal Energy" or more readily understood as "Good Karma and Bad Karma". This is why I am determined to do right by people because I thoroughly get it. What do I get? I get that if the Laws of Man & Community error in identifying your misdeed, the Universal Energy has seen to it to have made each one of us in it's infinite wisdom and equipped us with a moral compass and a conscience. Some would say this is missing in some of the evil doers in the world of the past or present, but alas I disagree because consistently throughout history as their stories unravelled, Karma bit them in the Butt in a big way. So when you see people or entities doing what we all know is morally corrupt, don't worry yourself about whether they are getting away with it, it may not be today, maybe not tomorrow, but I assure you a debt will be paid by these individuals or entities and you'll be soooo glad that you are Positive, Fun, Hardworking and Morally sound person who strives to be someone that makes other People's Lives Great too!

Shell and I celebrate each day and try to focus on the Positive things in Life, now ofcourse there are ups and downs, no one is excluded from these but let me share a hint with you.........If you live positively, surround yourself with positive people and eat healthy, the Universe sees all and will have your back and hey, with the Universe having your back.....you're in Good Hands!

Here's my Motto......."Love Life and Life will Love You back!"

The Pic you see above is Shell and I showing a little bit of Olympic Spirit here in Vancouver, now some have negative feelings towards this Once in a Lifetime Event ( for most ), this is unfortunate because if you Focus on the Positive side of this Incredible Event, I assure you, you're going to have a Blast! So join me in being Fun, Positive and Empowering to all you know and keep the People that resonate this Attitude close to you and all others........well quite honestly, a little bit of hard medicine here ........... let them go, if they can change....let them back into your circle of close friends and family but if they disappoint you again......let them go forever.

You'll be Better for it my Friends!

Be Blessed in all you do in Life

What at first looks like Adult ADD Syndrome Proves to be a Proven Success Strategy - written by Jay "The Funologist"

Hi I'm Jay "The Funologist" and the Creator of "Steals Deals and Opportunities" This is the portal that allows people from all over the world to source Savings on Products and Services that I have become passionate about because of my innate personal draw to progressive Pro-Active Health Products along with other Interests I have that Inspire me. I created the site in an effort to allow my past, present and future clients the ease inwhich to Bookmark and visit regularly in order to ensure they didn't miss "Time Sensitive" offers and enjoy knowing that when they purchased a product or service from the site knowing that my reputation for offering, in my opinion, the very best the Web has to offer. So let's get started shall we.............

What at first looks like Adult ADD Syndrome, Proves to be A Proven Success Strategy 

~ written by Jay "The Funologist"

I was preached to at a very early age to focus on one thing and do it well, with the promise that it would lead to prosperity and happiness. Well, like a good soldier, I accepted that advice as Gospel and went off focused and determined and excited that my efforts would be rewarded handsomely. The Success I achieved was realized but not to the extent that was promised and it was hard fought for that was for certain and created alot of Stress and Anxiety in my Life because I was Focused on "One" thing as I was Instructed. It was years later that I would find this approach to lack "Options for Success". I mean, I was literally putting all my eggs in one basket and I will prove that this was ineffective for me and possibly you as well. I might add that it was great for my employer because I was incredibly loyal and dedicated to my success which would guarantee the company's success. But was I really offering my best? In effort yes but not in ability because I was not tapping into and tying together all my skills because I was too Focused leading to a One Dimensional Approach. When I failed in this approach, it felt like my heart got ripped from my chest and I landed flat on my face in defeat. What did I do, got back up dusted myself and attacked it again. The Victories in my life were few and alot of "Gut Checks" were made. I was unhappy and my life felt unfilled.....and then it happened!

The Day I Woke up and Began living my Destiny!

I looked deep inside myself on a hike to the Top of the Squamish Chief ( Click Here to See Video ) and came to a revelation that I truly was not following my passions, thus living a life that lacked the luster that I had dreamed of as a small boy. I decided to act on this new life heading as soon as I got home. It was done and I felt alive for the first time in a real long while. I decided to "Tap Into and Introduce" my passions into sources of Income based on my passions respectively. Some nay sayers were on me like white on rice, attributing my diversified approach as being symptomatic of "Adult ADD" and that each of my efforts, because they lacked 100% of my attention at all times, would fail miserably. I thought that maybe they were right, maybe this approach was too widespread and complicated. But as I ventured deeper into this venture I found myself so excited each and everyday and sure there were failures but what was becoming apparent was that my "Downs" lasted for shorter and shorter time periods because another Venture in my Diverse Portfolio Succeeded! 

I soon started to embrace the failures as learning curves and instead of being consumed by Stress and making "Reactive Decisions" I was now taking fresh thinking approaches and making "Pro-Active Decisions". My Diverse Portfolio in Business includes in my opinion the "Most Innovative and Exciting" products and services such as " Far Infrared Saunas for the Home ~ Vibrational Fitness Platforms ~ Alkalizing Water Ionizers that enable High Antioxidant Water ~ Nutritional Supplements and even the well sought after Saturn Automobiles just to name but a few of my Ventures in my Business Portfolio ( All can be found at StealsDealsandOpportunities.com ) 

From a Business standpoint I'm successful because I thoroughly enjoy what I'm doing but the real reason I chose to offer the Pro-Active Health Products, offering Alternative therapies to Conventional mainstream applications was because after researching each and every product I have and will have to offer in the future, is that I'm literally making a Difference in People's Lives, a very Spiritual Passion for helping people and this is also why I'm writing this, to assist others that are not living their passions and failing to diversify their income portfolio. In times of Economic Crisis this is truly an "Advantageous Approach to your Personal Economic" situation. 

I hope that this Blog has been insightful and contributes to your "Living Life with Passion". Feel free to Subscribe and or Pass this Blog along to those that you feel could benefit from a Fresh Approach, both a privilege and an honour to share this with you.

In Success,

Relationship 101 - What you really have to Lose with Divorce - written by Jay "The Uber Funologist"

Nowadays, it seems that my generation has fallen victim to relationship ideals I like to call "The Hollywood Syndrome". You see, unlike our parents and their parents before them, we lack staying power when it comes to working on our relationships and strengthening our commitment bond. The cliche of "The Grass is Greener on the Other side of the Fence" has become all too common and has made some people wealthy (by which I make reference to the Lawyers involved in Divorces these days) It's very sad indeed because everyone in my opinion loses, if kids are involved, it's just plain messy and confusing and with the current housing costs these days, the stakes are high and the stress on each party is a serious factor to consider, the friends of the couple are also at a loss because it places them in an awkward position and honestly most folks could do without the rampant drama these days. It was very uncommon in the days of old to have to deal with divorces and a great deal of effort went into saving a marriage but alas in the relationship arena these days, a quick excuse to "Tap Out" and the towel is thrown in and the "Losses" start to pile up. Sooooo, here is my humble suggestion for those folks looking to get into a relationship, are you ready for it.......it's big!........"Take your Time" and build a Friendship with many prospective mates, a Best Friend will eventually emerge glistening like "Diamond in the rough" and a closer Relationship will blossom, you will make Love that coupled with Lust, will be euphoric instead of a "Lust Only" fling that will have you rethinking and possibly regretting the impulsive decision. Now here's the big one, if you've chosen the Relationship based on Friendship first and if ever the Lust wears off, your Relationship will be still in great form because it is based on an Incredible Friendship first and foremost and not Lust, which if it was based on Lust, well guess what, yeppers off to Divorce court you'll trot.

If you're already in a fantastic relationship but you're not appreciating what you have, well here's my second tip for you folks, wait for it............"Consider what you're about to Lose!" Yes. that's it before acting irrationally based on emotional upset, take a week and Pretend that the relationship is now over ( do this in your mind only! and do not involve your partner in this pretend scenario ) Now each day, act as if you're moving on without your significant other, mentally divide up your assets, if you have kids, think in great detail how this will affect their lives and how will the divorce affect your present living conditions, then each evening take an hour or two and look over all your Relationship pics and videos over the years and remember all the great times ( don't dwell on the negative aspects of the relationship ) Now here's the big one , talk to someone doing the single scene these days and ask them to highlight the many pitfalls of searching for your "Life Partner" because, should after all of these exercises, you make an educated decision to forget Reconciliation and move towards Divorce, this is the task ahead for you, to have to start the search from scratch all over again with the very real possibility that you will revisit the same scenario in the years to come.

I'm hoping that my humble little Blog will help those looking for a Life Partner to slow down and take their time, after all relationships are not a 100 m Olympic sprints but rather a Marathon of Life situations to enjoy, work through, support each other and celebrate. If you're in a relationship that you're at odds with, I'm hoping that with the exercises mentioned above that you will come to realize that your relationship is very much worth working on and maybe just maybe I can only hope that you will discover the reason that you fell in Love years ago with your Life Partner and decide to embrace it and move towards growing closer together and keeping the Lawyers from naming their yachts after you folks :)

I wish for you and your chosen Life Partner an Abundance of Health, Happiness and Harmony,

Why do we "Really" watch the News and read Newspapers? written by Jay "The Resident Funologist"

A long time ago, I became aware of the fact that most "News Media" sources such as TV News, Newspaper News & Internet News seemed to be in my opinion less than Positive to speak mildly of it. I found that I made it part of my day because it gave me something to read while commuting and filled my curiosity quotient for the day about what was happening around me and my city. However, I found myself lacking a certain gratification from watching or reading the News and wondered why it was that the News seemed to concentrate it's content on crime, morbid situational material, financial crisis etc... Then it dawned on me, it's a way of controlling the public's perception and applying hidden agendas from vested parties. None of which I wanted to support. I also found that people that I spoke to that lacked self confidence and self esteem, used the News Media resources as a "Downward Comparison" in order to feel better about themselves and their lives if others outlined in the News Media, were suffering, dealing with drama in their lives etc....... One has to ask themself, "do I relish the idea of others dealing with tragedy to feel better about my Life?" Do you think that this media source can effect your day in how you treat others, make travel decisions, or even manipulate your financial dealings? I think this is why people are jaded, depressed and lack self awareness and confidence. But I have an idea for those that this rings true to..............

Become a Student of Life again, steer away from negativity in all forms and choose to learn new things each day, be it from Instructional Writings, a Friend or even an Adventure. Steer clear of idle gossip, 99% of it is untrue and a waste of your short lives. Live to Appreciate every second of everyday and pick out the Positives in all situations Good or Bad, this applies to People you know or meet. Remember this my friends, learn to Celebrate the smallest wonders on this Earth and your Life will be Rich beyond belief, but if you need Fireworks to happen (metaphorically speaking) in order to enjoy yourself, your "Highs" in Life will be few and very far between, contributing to an unfulfilled Life experience when you get to the age of reflection.

So take a stand and send a message to the News Media sources that exist today, that the only way they will attract your attention or money is to focus on material that is Positive and Educates you in the manner that will Enhance your Evolvement and allow us as a World to Appreciate each other. Let us embrace the Positive and strive to be the very best people we can be and not be guided by Agenda ridden entities that exist today. I believe in all of us and I believe that we can start making a Safe, Productive and an Exciting World to Live in if we ignore the Negativity of the Media. A child sometimes cries for attention, the wrong-doers of the world create chaos for attention, let's cease giving them attention today.

Stay Great! Stay Empowerd :)

Who Are You? - Written by Jay "The Resident Funologist"

Who are you? Who am I? What am I? How am I defined? All great questions that more than likely will have you stumped as you wander silently along a mountain hike or sit beside a seemingly silent lakeside or maybe you're just sitting in quiet meditation in silent reflection of yourself. Personally, I believe you are who you think you are and are defined by others as such, by this I mean, what you believe yourself to be, good, bad, fun, cute, not so good looking, tall, plump etc....you are! Because what we believe ourselves to be sends a huge message to our brain to ensure that we reflect what we think and ofcourse like the domino effect it transcends us and vibrates out to the people we run into day to day. Sooooo many self help, self esteem books have been written, videos watched and lectures given to help people feel good about themselves. Hooray for the efforts of others to help those think positively of themselves. But here's a secret to being a grounded, self assured, positive person. Think it! Believe you are! And you will be! That simple! People make mountains out of mole hills and get paid rather handsomely to treat folks unable to grasp this very easy exercise. Now there is just one more thing you need to cement your positive image. A list of Do's, notice we're not mentioning Don'ts , why? Because we want this to be simple, so here we go, here's your list of Do's:
Do...
1) Stay away from foods that are not Nutritious for your "Living" Body.
2) Enjoy the company of friends and family that are Positive and Supportive and Fun
3) Find a Career or Job that makes you happy and gives your life Purpose
4) Treat People with Respect and Be Kind and Honest (in a Nice way ) No Brutal Honesty here!
5) Exercise, this releases Toxins from the body and is a Mood Booster by design
6) Love and be Loved
7) Take adventures time and again and record your fun to lift your spirits down the road if ever there is a need.
And Finally,
8) Be Humble in your mind but Confident in your Approach to your Life, Regret nothing attempted in Good Faith and use Challenges in Life as Learning Curves.

Who are you? Well I think you are Amazing!

Facing your own Mortality? written by Jay Simons "The Resident Funologist"

A very sobering thought or maybe it's a reality for you presently. Let me first prefix this topic by saying, you'll never be alone unless you choose to be. Your friends and family will offer you support, just be sure to be as Positive and upbeat as you can be and always, always be grateful for their fellowship or assistance.
So you've been diagnosed with an illness, what do you do? Well my friend, let's not go down the road of "Why me God why me?" and curl up in a corner defeated. No that's just not our style, we're Fighters each and everyone of us deep down inside. We just need to tap into it, so let's get started on our journey of Faith and Knowledge and yes, Trial and Error, it will most definitely reveal a learning curve and challenge you Spiritually, Mentally and ofcourse Physically.

We live in a great era, technology and global sharing of ideas via Community websites such as Facebook, Tribe and Myspace just to mention a few, allow for us to reach out globally for answers and suggestions in an effort to capitalize on what may help with your condition. Become the best student possible of your condition and do your due diligence, again Giving up is not an option. I created one such medium on Facebook called "Ask a Naturopath", it's a group that lists many ailments and calls upon professionals and it's membership to suggest ideas in an effort to assist it's member's needs respectively.

My personal approach would be to release myself from Worry, because your mind is all powerful and whatever you concentrate on you will manifest, so I would concentrate on and in my mind's eye visualize myself in the future, healed from my ailment and enjoying a great outing in the country, then I would get to work on my research and ask for assistance from my peers, friends and family to share with me any and all ideas or info and the key here is to keep your mind wide open.

I would then be forever watchful for the Universal Energy's (God) blessings to take advantage of. This is key my friends, think of this ailment as a Life Challenge that I believe will provide many opportunities to possibly solve the challenge.

I would keep a Daily Diary and keep track of failures and success this will shorten your learning curve and hopefully keep you from repeating past mistakes.

Remember, your body reflects what you put into it and now that you're ailing, you must treat your body with only beneficial fuel metaphorically speaking, there are no days offs from this important aspect of your journey. Stay Strong in conviction and Focused on your healing imagery we spoke about earlier.

There will be bumps and roller-coaster like hours maybe even days but know this, the prize is worth it and you've got alot to look forward too :)

No energy, aching, sad, no money, lost your job? Then let me share this with you, I've been there my friends and it feels horrible, I had all five of the before mentioned situations occur twice in my life and it was devastating but guess what, I'm still here and I'm more powerful in my life than I ever was when I was younger and in great health. I have an Unshakable Faith ( Let Go Let God ) and Wisdom of Trial and Error from past "Challenges". I want you to know that I believe in the Positive Person that makes up a portion of who you are and hopefully after reading this, your Positive Spirit is on the rise :)

Be Strong, Be Courageous and Be Forthright in your Efforts,

Blessings to you and those that Support you,

Think out of the Box,

Spontanaity and the Magic it Reveals in One's Life - Written by Jay Simons "The Resident Funologist"

Are you a Planner or do you rule your life by welcoming Spontanaity?
I've been amazed by total Life transformations after a mere suggestion to live a more spontaneous lifestyle. Being a self proclaimed "Funologist" requires a person to take root of your inner child and embrace the magic it will reveal if you are committed to looking at your life with an undiluted perspective. When you were a child and taken here and there in a moments notice, relinquishing any and all control to that of your parents, more often than not you found yourself having an amazing time and if you reflect back and think really hard, you'll probably also remember that your parents were stressed or tense during the activities they created for you. Not because you were hard to deal with :) Simply because they had the stress of planning, entertaining you, worry of costs, maintaining the plan etc.... But you were so happy and those memories you've embraced and reflected on a great deal over your lifetime, quite possibly because of tough turbulent times in your life that required you to suck it up and carry on like a good little trooper in the theater of Life. Why is it, that you can remember these joys but hard pressed to remember a good portion of your adult life's high points. It's because a majority of your activities are planned and thus carry in tow with them three main factors: Accountability, Responsibility and Reliability. Many people that I have helped release their inner child and start to make great memories have started to feel younger, more vibrant, in touch with their Positive side and much much more. Here's how you can too.
1) Be Spontaneous with your Adventures, if you have free time, let your inner creativity take over and imagine a great outing that fits your free time slot and invite some friends ( the ones that are spontaneous :) ) Release yourself of any preconceived responsibilities, if it works great, if not, be flexible and keep the creativity flowing and onward and upward. You're gonna have a blast because it truly is an Adventure and your willingness to "Let Go, Let God" guide you through his universal energy, your positive vibrations you're sending out and your awareness of doors of opportunity opening all around you, will all aid you in a very exciting life memory in the making.
2) Know that if you are prone to planning, you set yourself up for failure because we as a people have an a tendency to worry, most of us build up impossible expectations and then when the event starts, we find ourselves being let down and the drain is often adventure ruining, the lack of flexibility because of a plan can sometimes find you returning from a vacation even more stressed than you were before you left. So think of your life in this way, yesterday was a blessing, today is a present, tomorrow is a gift. You don't know what the gift is until you open it, you have no preconceived notions of what it is, but one thing is for sure, it will be exciting! Treat your life like that and every day will be a gift and exciting.

I rarely ever plan and I have trained my mind to be spontaneous and have found my life enriched by what the the Universal Energy has seen to bless my life with.

I choose to spin negative situations to positive and am extremely flexible in my life and am often in awe of what it reveals to me, including the people it draws to me.

I count my Blessings anytime I find it hard to sleep and reflect on people of worn torn countries that never know what is around the next corner or what terror lies ahead but still have great stories and fond memories to speak of, a truer argument to be spontaneous if ever there was one because more often than not, these people are squeezing the most out of every day and treating life as the precious miracle it truly is. I don't condone war, but I believe there is a lesson in everything and this lesson is simple. Squeeze out the very best of everyday and watch for miracles in your life every second, every minute, hourly, daily, monthly, yearly and be thankful, be very thankful and grateful of your blessings. Because if you start to take things for granted, you will soon find that they will disappear, the Universe is funny that way :)

Give thanks to the Positive, Fun and Spontaneous people in your Life, for they are the ones that keep you young, the true Fountain of Youth if ever there was one :)

Manifestation Of a Positive Lifestyle

You Manifest in your Life the Energy you Vibrate to the World - by Jay "The Resident Funologist"



Ever notice when you're having a tough day, that it all started with one seemingly negative situation, then another and another until your day became a living nightmare and all the while the old saying rang true in your head, that being "When it Rains it Pours ;( "



Well my friends, a simple explanation can help you understand why it kept getting worse and let me show you a trick on how to nip it in the bud, the next time the avalanche of wowsy wowsy woo woos start again.



First off, know that seemingly negative situations will occur often, understand that and accept this truism, then embrace the situation as it starts t reveal itself to you. The trick here is to comprehend that the situation offers a negative and believe it or not a positive outcome, you just have to identify it by watching for the opportunity that avails itself in whatever level of crisis exists. This is a Universal test or lesson to be learned if you will. If you complain and scream and stomp around saying "why me why me!" Pssst...... you've failed the test or life lesson and the universe will continue to throw more scenarios at you until you learn then lesson or pass the test and so your day seems to reap tremendous failure one after another until you go home completely frustrated and fall asleep after an exhausting day.



Next time a Life Lesson or test sent your way by the Universe, concentrate on a positive outcome opportunity and then embrace it when you realize the positive spin on the situation and thank the universe for the life lesson and guess what, you will feel better and the great energy will send a message to the Universe that you are and Aware and Appreciative species and the rest of your day should go along swimmingly.



I live in the moment of every hour of everyday and never take life for granted as if each day is "owed" to me. I am forever grateful for all the blessings past present and future in my life and I treat all my friends as best friends each and everyday, whether I've personally met them or am friends online in a community such as this.



I welcome new friend requests as an opportunity to meet new "Best Friends" everyday and so I invite anyone that is positive and fun to send me friend requests, I'm never judging and I love to share.



Looking forward to meeting exciting personalities and wish for all many Blessings and Abundance of Patience and Understanding in their respective lives.

"A Positive Difference starts with One Thought, One Action, by One Person, in One Family, in One Community, then it Flourishes :)"

Want to Be a Funologist? read on.........

Just for reading this Blog, you've already gone back to your roots of being Fun and filled with the Spirit of Adventure only over time do we get away from our true selves, being taught by society to think it naive and immature. Well here's what I do and I pass it onto everyone that reads this blog of mine, in the hopes that it will make a positive difference in your lives and the lives you touch :)

I,
a) Don't watch the news or read the papers, I find it to be manipulated and for all the Positive features the Negative features outnumber them considerably. I focus on inspired reading by incredible spirits.
b) concentrate on the positive attributes that a person holds
c) believe that life is about meeting people and sharing and thank those like the creators of Facebook for shrinking the globe to allow us to stay in touch with our like-minded brothers and sisters globally.
d) love passionate, positive people and choose to embrace their freindship.
e) take time out of each day to be grateful for the blessings bestowed upon me and those I'm close to.
f) am solution oriented and avoid the detrimental aspects of passing judgment on the actions of others, I like to offer assistance.
g) love, play and squeeze every ounce of pleasure from every day
h) compliment often, smile often, laugh often
i) truly understand that we are here on Earth to make life easier for each other and share in their positive experiences.
j) see difficult hurdles in life as "The Learning Curve" of life and treat each one as a challenge to better understand, adapt and overcome after all change and evolution is a little thing called "Life" :)
k) truly want to be part of the solution and not add or jump onboard the destruction of our people, our earth and ofcourse our next generations.
l) avoid unnatural substances such as mood altering drugs or drink to excess and strive for purity of diet to ensure that the people making money from me are the ones taking care of me and not hurting my body. Change your consumption habits and see how dramatically great you feel and this alone will have you interacting with people better :)
m) absolutely am empowered by nature and all it has to offer and am Pro environment and support living within our means and against over population and excessive consumption and materialism.
n) wake up and choose to be happy and fall asleep in love everynight with my soulmate, that I chose to become best friends with before taking our relationship further because when times get tough, it's the foundation of a solid friendship that will get you through the difficult times.
o) believe that the backing and strength of an encouraging friend(s), life-mate, family member(s) makes you able to evolve into the best person you can possibly be.
p) never take for granted or feel it owed to me and am eternally grateful for everything that makes my day easier.
q) am respectful of all of mankind's religions and beliefs as long as they are not prejudiced, hurtful, fear evoking, or forced upon others and truly want to empower people to be generous, accepting and forgiving.

** Well there are many more attributes that I feel make-up a "Funologist" and I would be glad to share them with those that are interested but for now I think I will look forward to hearing from all of the Positive, Inspired people in this group :)

Abundant Blessings to you and yours and all that you come in contact with daily,

:) Jay "The Resident Funologist"
