  1. This is how my associate Wesley Virgin's story launches in this SHOCKING AND CONTROVERSIAL VIDEO.

    Wesley was in the army-and soon after leaving-he revealed hidden, "SELF MIND CONTROL" secrets that the government and others used to obtain whatever they want.

    As it turns out, these are the exact same secrets lots of celebrities (notably those who "became famous out of nowhere") and the greatest business people used to become rich and successful.

    You probably know how you use only 10% of your brain.

    Really, that's because most of your brainpower is UNCONSCIOUS.

    Maybe that conversation has even taken place IN YOUR own brain... as it did in my good friend Wesley Virgin's brain about seven years ago, while riding a non-registered, trash bucket of a vehicle without a driver's license and $3.20 on his bank card.

    "I'm so fed up with living payroll to payroll! Why can't I become successful?"

    You've been a part of those those types of conversations, am I right?

    Your success story is waiting to happen. Go and take a leap of faith in YOURSELF.
