Friends, Thanks to all of you who believed in me!   For those of you who don’t know, I have accomplished one of the greatest moments of my career, A bold, and Beautiful Risk, that has turned out better than I could have Imagined.

Thursday, May 20th, seven days ago, I had a dream…  (but first a little backstory real quick)

After being on the Cover of DFW’s Magazine, as well as Star Telegram, the folks at DFW/Star Telegram asked me to be a “Celebrity” guest and perform at the Newspaper Birthday Celebration to be held in Fort Worth, May 26th.  They asked me about two weeks ago, and I was very excited to do it…    Now on with the Amazing news…

Last Thursday, May 21st, one week prior to the Birthday bash, I had a dream, a simple dream.  When I woke up last friday morning, May 22nd, I had an uncontrollable urge to make a VERY bold prediction.  I had a Premonition of  sorts about what the STAR TELEGRAM Newspaper HEADLINES would be on the day of the Party, May 26th.  Keep in mind, at this time, the party is SEVEN days away at this time…  So what did I Do?  I went for it.

Friday Afternoon May 22nd, I showed up at Star Telegram Offices, and hand delivered A SEALED envelope to Staff Member Wendy Stane.  I instructed her to keep that Envelope HIDDEN and LOCKED up in a secret location, and to bring it with her to the party…  That was to be held seven days later.   I told her and the staff, that inside was the HEADLINES of the paper, of the day of the party.  There were doubts, and excitement…  A buzz generated…

Monday morning I was interviewed live on the “Justin Frazell Morning Show” on 95.9 Ranch FM.  A very Popular Morning talk show in the DFW area, We talked about the upcoming Prediction,  and I did some Mind Reading for Justin and his Co-Host Taylor, Live in the studio.  You can listen to the full Interview below…

Now, the pressure was on.  I, at this point, had no idea if I was going to be Right, Wrong, or maybe Close.  But I strangely had a really good feeling about it.  Well I won’t keep you waiting any longer, The event was Yesterday, may 26th.  I showed up, did the ‘Meet and Greet’ for the party, then I got up on stage and performed a few Mentalism demonstrations, then the time had come…  Staff Member Wendy Stane brought the Envelope that she had kept safe for the entire week, she opened it…  I had made FIVE predictions.  And out of those Five…  Five we’re Right!!!!!!!!!!!   The most amazing moment of my career, but not the last   But you don’t have to believe me, watch the video for yourself!!!  Thanks to everyone who supported me, throughout the years, and recently….  Here’s the Video…

Today I write with an overwhelming feeling of Gratitude.  I am completely blessed to be able to say that in the past two weeks I have been featured on the Cover of two different newspapers in a Major way.  First came “DFW” Front Cover story with a huge 5 page spread inside, then came “Star Telegram” giving me the Cover of the “Your Life” section, with another amazing spread.   That’s alot of Press for two weeks…  Not to mention the famous Jay Noblezada coming down from Vegas, spending a week at my home, and working with me on my shows, what an Honor that was! and still is!

In Summary, in the words of Napoleon Hill, “Whatever the Mind can Conceive and Believe, it can Achieve.”   Those words have never rang more true.  Everything is blowing up and taking off, and the day approaches when I can visit my family and bless them in enormous ways…  :-)

Hey friends! Amazing things ahead. Sitting here in Texas with good friends jay noblezada and ben Jamrock! Workin on big things and a bright future!

Here are some of the photos taken at the Newspaper Photo Shoot…   Enjoy

Hey friends,

Just finished the long process of redesigning TheWorldOfJoeRiggs.com Official Website!  I admit I was a fun of the old design, dark and mysterious, but I really wanted to go for something more streamlined, more ‘executive’ if you will. And I think I’ve done it!  I’ve added some new features, and an all around cleaner vibe to it. So if you haven’t seen it, let me know what you think by replying to this post!  Visit the new look at www.TheWorldOfJoeRiggs.com Today!

“Whatever you hold in your mind will tend to occur in your life. If you continue to believe as you have always believed, you will continue to act as you have always acted. If you continue to act as you have always acted, you will continue to get what you have always gotten. If you want different results in your life or your work, all you have to do is change your mind.”

Makes you think doesn’t it?  Just watching it, seeing the year I was born, then all those years that you remember so well, makes you realize that despite how you feel, YOU, have come a long way. Make THIS year a year look back on in excitement when you stumble upon a collage like this one in twenty years…   Happy New Years! 2010!

The following is “The Optimists Creed” in it’s original entirety, written over 100 years ago by Christian D. Larson, Today I hung this in every room in my house, I suggest you do the same, or the equivalent.

Promise Yourself

To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.

To talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person you meet.

To make all your friends feel that there is something worthwhile in them.

To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true.

To think only of the best, to work only for the best and to expect only the best.

To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own.

To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future.

To wear a cheerful expression at all times and give a smile to every living creature you meet.

To give so much time to improving yourself that you have no time to criticize others.

To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear,

and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.

To think well of yourself and to proclaim this fact to the world, not in loud word, but in great deeds.

To live in the faith that the whole world is on your side, so long as you are true to the best that is in you.
