Motivation Song Video

December 1, 2008 By

Sometimes I get inspired and I can’t help but write a song. Other times something someone says causes me to feel the song writing “motivation”. In this case all of the above. I took a seminar with Kathy McAfee, “The Marketing Motivator”. As a result many of her key ideas are in this song. Hope you enjoy it.

Learn more about Kathy McAfee (the inspiration for this song)’Kathy McAfee - the Marketing Motivator

Lift Me Up by Mark Shepard

Lift Me Up  |  Song # 171 | 7/20/91

I know you’re out there some where, you dancing warrior
I know you have a message for me like some mystic courier
When you call I get so far away, I get so out of sorts
You’re more patient than a rock, wiser than a tree,
Cooler than a corpse!

Refrain:
Lift me up into the devastating stillness of your eyes
Lift me up onto the rooftops and release me to the skies
Life me up into the lightness till the heaviness subsides
Lift me up…Lift me up…Lift me up…

A flower is a soldier and a butterfly is a thief
A sidewalk is a desert that heaves and buckles in the heat
My thirst is like a canyon and I cannot find relief
So I pray for a cooling breeze to blow on these melting city streets

Refrain:

Bridge:
Love is tenderness, love is war
Love is loneliness, love is more
Love is magical, love is a chore
Love is the ceiling and love is the floor

A crow can wear a thousand masks but a sparrow merely sings
The world is more than what we see and every thought has wings
I challenge you to answer me and tell me what it means
Instead you dare me to wait like glass and see what the Spirit brings

Refrain:

Commentary: This song is from my Visions & Voices CD and is heavily influenced by the writings of Carlos Castaneda. Far from being some weird new age mumbo jumbo I found the concepts contained in his books to be crystal clear and practical for helping one get one's head out of one's butt! One of the key concepts was the step by step elimination of self importance and self pity. Indulging in self pity sucks tremendous amounts of energy from us and is the antithesis of what a spiritual warrior is all about. One of the Toltec challenges given to Castaneda by his teacher, Don Juan Matus, was to erase personal history. Castaneda was left to his own devices to figure out how to do that. I believe NLP (neuro linguistic programming) is "how" to erase personal history. By that I mean NLP gives us specific and precise tools to clear the negative and heavy influence of our past. You've heard someone say "He has a lot of baggage." haven't you? Lift me up is all about letting go of that baggage, erasing the personal history that drags us down and limits us.

Clear the Fear Song

November 17, 2008 By

Need Some Courage? Watch The Video Below.

But before you click "Play", check this out: To celebrate vanquishing stage fright and performing anxiety through the application of NLP, I'll be celebrating by performing my first concert in 2 years on Sunday November 23rd at the Space in Hamden.

Also! For the first Time ever I'll be making some of my Paintings available to be seen and purchased at Sunday's concert. Whatever doesn't sell will be uploaded here to my site so even those of you who live on the other side of the world can get access to them. The short version of the story is: At one point performing was so painful for me that I just gave up and started painting acrylic abstract canvases. There's a much longer story to tell but I'll share it on Sunday at the concert or in a future post.

Here's the video:

Let me know what you think

Commentary: This song literally contains the NLP Anxiety treatment process that I use with clients from all over the world to help them stop worry, anxiety, phobias and panic attacks. I used the same techniques to clear my own anxiety and self sabotage around getting my music out of my living room and into the ears of other people. The fact that in the last 3 weeks people  from 49 countries have visited this site and experienced my songs is literally proof that NLP works. Watch the video and enjoy the images.

Please help me spread the word and share the songs! Leave a comment below, share with a friend or "stumble" or "digg" this post.  Thanks! - Mark
