We live in the most dangerous, and yet exciting, time in history. Two
MAJOR factors are dramatically altering our world and the rules of
business. Whatever your goals may be, from getting your MBA and finding a
job, to traveling the world and making native English speaking friends,
your ability to do these successfully will depend most on your ability
to communicate clearly and effectively in spoken English. In this video,
we’ll reveal what these two powerful factors shaping our world are, and
why it’s never been more important, in 2013 and beyond, to become a
great English speaker.
Welcome to The Power of English and the Rise of the Global Citizen
The idea of a “perfect storm” describes separate powerful and
influential events coming together at the same time. This Special Report
is the result of the perfect storm of global trends, the thoughts and
feelings of thousands of our subscribers and a breakthrough in our
business.
Those who listen closely, and TAKE ACTION to become great English
speakers, will be well prepared for extraordinary success in an
increasingly uncertain world.
A Dark Future?
We live in dangerous times. The first ever GLOBAL financial crisis is
affecting the lives of everyone on our planet. Whole countries are in
deep financial trouble, and some of the world’s biggest and most
powerful companies have gone bankrupt. The Congressional Budget Office
of the United States has even REVERSED its economic growth forecast for
the US and said it would SHRINK in 2013.
As a result of this crisis, we’re experiencing inflation, or rising
prices. What you may not know is that prices are rising, in part,
because governments are PRINTING lots of money to pay their debts! As
more money is printed, the VALUE of each dollar, euro and yen decreases,
and you’re forced to pay more and more for food, energy, travel and
almost everything else.
In 2008, ALL THREE of Iceland’s major commercial banks collapsed. The
Iceland Stock Exchange lost more than 90% of its value, and Icelanders
experienced HYPERinflation as the króna, Iceland’s national currency,
became nearly worthless. Iceland is currently considering the CANADIAN
dollar as its new official currency.
The risk of this fate for other countries remains very real, and
governments may still cause terrible harm even as they try to protect
their nations.
The financial crisis is also causing incredibly high unemployment
worldwide. MILLIONS of people around the world are losing their jobs and
many are unable to find work. The unemployment rate of some countries
is higher than 20%, and these numbers DON’T count the people who can’t
find jobs and stop looking! According to the International Labour
Organization, a special agency of the United Nations, these distressing
trends will continue and most likely worsen.
Along with this worrying economic climate, the information revolution
is RADICALLY changing the rules of business AND transforming the global
job market. Entire industries are being created and destroyed as the
focus of the world economy shifts from the production of things to the
management of information. This shift will make KNOWLEDGE WORKERS highly
valued, and the competition for these jobs will become increasingly
intense.
The REALITY of higher prices and taxes, and a much more competitive
job market, will depend on how you THINK and what you DO. BILLIONS will
do nothing but HOPE things get better. These people will barely survive,
experiencing only worry and uncertainty as their lives become more
difficult. There will be others, however, who will see a world of
exciting opportunities. These people will TAKE ACTION, while everyone
else watches, and experience more wealth, success and freedom than ever
before…
The Rise of the Global Citizen
The information revolution has connected the world online and opened
the door to the most explosive era of content creation and distribution
in human history. We live in a global marketplace. Incredible knowledge
is freely available at the click of a mouse. Anyone can make blockbuster
movies, produce professional quality music, and publish bestselling
books from their home… and bring them all to the world instantly!
This unprecedented era will belong to the Global Citizens, the new
masters of information and languages who can utilize and manage the
gifts of the information revolution. Global Citizens speak fluent
English, the language of international business and politics, and at
least one other language fluently. They also understand technology and
are experts at connecting people with information.
Global Citizens are ideally positioned for success in the new
economy, and they embrace the changes in our world. Their unique skills
and passion will drive them to dominate industries, as entrepreneurs and
business leaders, and power the growth of companies as essential
employees.
Smart organizations all over the world are recognizing the importance
Global Citizens. MORE THAN ONE THIRD of businesses are aggressively
hiring people specifically for their language abilities. Non-native,
fluent English speakers can significantly increase their potential for
promotions and expect salaries 25-30% HIGHER than those who can’t speak
English in many industries. Their potential for overall financial
success is also greatly increased as they can work and build businesses
in nearly any country on earth!
Global Citizens also enjoy attractive personal benefits. By speaking
English and an additional language fluently, Global Citizens travel the
world with confidence, make international friends more easily and learn
additional languages more quickly. These speakers of two or more
languages also show increased mental aptitude for multi-tasking, memory,
overall mental health and focus. They even decrease their chances of
mental impairment by 400%!
Students who study a foreign language for four or more years OUTPERFORM their classmates academically, and the children of bilingual couples are more likely to have better memory and overall intelligence.

The most exciting and hopeful statistic about Global Citizens is that
ANYONE can become one! For the first time in history, technology has
made it possible for anyone, regardless of income, age or location, to
improve their technical skills and language ability to achieve lasting
success. Unfortunately, many people never build the skills to become
Global Citizens because they’re missing the most important key to
success…
The one thing that makes everything else possible…
