Dear TBC Family,
Welcome to the month of August. A month full of history and, as such, called the month of Triumph. When Julius Caesar’s nephew, Augustus Caesar, defeated Marc Anthony and Cleopatra, the Roman Senate decided that Augustus should haver his own month. His name, Augustus, came from the Latin culture, and thus the adjective August, meaning “respected and impressive”. And that is my theme for this month.
Respected and Impressive. Two statements that can only come from action. As in all life, actions speak louder than words, and words come from actions. As others see your journey in life, driven by your character, so do they give labels to describe You.
I remember when I was performing in Starlight Express in Japan. I loved the audiences. They are always the most valuable part of a show. Without them, there is no show. Being one of the Leads, I had a certain advantage in the way I was seen. Our “status” level was raised just because of the roles we played. I remember so vividly, even after all these years, one specific show that we performed in Yokohama Stadium, for physically challenged Japanese people. What a special show. After the show instead of getting changed I went outside and climbed on bus after bus to shake as many hands as possible to let those special people know how special they are. Not disabled, but rather amazing characters who had as much value as anyone ever in that stadium or we performed to. The reception was overwhelming and I will never forget the moment I met a young man, with cerebral palsy, who was the Japanese twin of my own Uncle Joel. A moment I would have missed, yet never have forgotten, if I didn’t take the time to give of myself for others. Such a beautiful soul and eyes that exuded happiness and passion of life itself, taking in moments we so disregard for the need to get up and go.

We should never forget that we always have the power to earn respect, be impressive and have the best words given to us, by others, because of who we are through our actions. I am so impressed and respect you all for taking the steps to improve your life. Challenges are given to us to test our resolve, learn how to handle adversity and grow into stronger, happier and accomplished leaders of our lives and those we affect. And so, I again, welcome you to August, the Month of Triumph. May you be empowered to impress yourself and see the results you all work so hard for. Or WILL work so hard for. I can’t wait for you to read the Hero of the Month below. I believe you will be inspired.
With care and Love

TBC HERO OF THE Month – August 1st, 2021
My Hero of the Month is someone you will feel very closely connected to. Someone who has done amazing things over the years and has taken steps and challenges head on. As much as you may pretend you don’t know this Hero well, I promise you, you do.
MY Hero of the Month of August is ……. YOU. The definition in the Cambridge English Dictionary explains the definition: hero noun [C] (PERSON) B1. a person who is admired for having done something very brave or having achieved something great.
You are a Hero. You have taken on life debilitating decline. You have not sat back and complained about your struggles, YOU have invested time, and money, into your fight back. Not succumbed to excuses but rather stepped up, literally, and fought back. Others will see your journey as inspirational, determined and never giving up. That, in my book, is a Hero. Congratulations. Today you are closer to your goal than if you did nothing. Every day you give in to challenges you are one day further from your possibilities.
Now it is time to inspire others. We have created a program called Loyalty Lion. It is a way for you to help someone else find what you have discovered. The greatest gift I ever gave my mother was the ability to move again, fully, after having survived a stroke. To see her up and walking without restriction, amazed at how she got her life back, is my own personal greatest story of the TBC. And I know many of you will feel the same about others you have shared the TBC with and lead them to a better life.
LOYALTY LION is our Referral program. It allows you to help another get the TBC to change their life, and both of you get discounts and rewards as a thank you from us. You will earn points for Free product and as we add more items to our line they can be redeemed for your benefit and discounted for knowing our appreciation. You can earn points, for free, just for signing up. But the ultimate reward will be seeing life changed, by you, for someone you love and care about. The referral program tab at the top of our page will make this opportunity so simple. Who can you help this month of Triumph, and change their lives? To me, you continue to be a hero.
I live my life being able to help others find the best of them. And I welcome you to my smaller family of those who make a difference. To others. There is no great joy than seeing your strength and experience affect those who need help. Please join me with Loyalty Lion and let’s change this world by helping others have a better quality of life, one person at a time.
Thank you for being our Hero. Who will you add to this life changing program?
TIP of the NEWSLETTER
DO THE WORK. My tip is so simple. DO THE WORK.
I used to race bikes, bicycles. I have trained a number of people to race. Some would show up with the latest, newest, flashy gadgets to help you be successful. We have seen the newbie golfer who shows up with the most amazing expensive set of clubs, looking so impressive, until that first tee shot slices through the air so perfectly onto the 18th hole, and they are still on hole 1.
DO the Work. There is no substitute for getting on the TBC program. IF you start, you are one step closer to your success. There is NO ONE who can do the work for you. The flashiest equipment is useless, unless you put the time and effort into making the higher levels within. IT starts with desire, determination, needs discipline, a plan and above all, it needs all of you.
So, my Tip for this Month. Do the Work. I have so many success stories from people of all challenges. And the one thing that they all shared. They just got up and Did It. IF you want better, work for it. Results will come. And crossing that finish line in first on race day, hitting the perfect shot down the middle of the fairway, or designing your dream to come true, is a testament to the work you put in to get there. Medals, trophies, glory will gather dust over time. Keep YOU shining, because life is never over when you stand up and live.
With love,
Dan
