Mindful Monday -Napoleon Hill's Lost Blueprint for Building Wealth
Hi there, I’m Judy Croon. Welcome to Laugh Long and Prosper. Today, I’m doing a Top 5 Tips Book Review of one of the greatest self-help books of all time. It’s sold over 100 million copies around the world and continues to inspire readers nearly 90 years after it was written. 📚 The book? Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill. Written in 1937, this classic has become the blueprint for success, mindset, and financial empowerment. 👤 So, who was Napoleon Hill? Hill was a journalist-turned-success strategist, personally commissioned by steel magnate Andrew Carnegie to answer one question: 👉 What makes someone truly successful? To find the answer, Hill spent over two decades interviewing more than 500 of the most accomplished people of his time—everyone from Henry Ford to Thomas Edison to Alexander Graham Bell. This guy was basically the first motivational podcaster… before podcasts… or even color TV. 💡 Why was he ahead of his time? Because Hill was talking about the power of thoughts, belief, and intention during the Great Depression—when most people were talking about canned soup and side hustles involving chickens. He believed success starts in the mind, not the bank account. And that message? Still ahead of our time. 📘 One of the biggest fans of Think and Grow Rich was none other than Bob Proctor—the beloved speaker, author, and personal development icon best known from The Secret. Bob once said he read his copy of Think and Grow Rich every single day. For decades. That’s commitment. I don’t even remember where I put my keys every day. 🧠 Top 5 Takeaways from Think and Grow Rich 🖐 #5 – Desire is the Starting Point of All Achievement Not a wish. Not a “maybe someday.” Hill says desire needs to burn brighter than a ring light during a Zoom call. Be specific. Be obsessed. Be clear. ✋ #4 – Faith: Fake It Till You Feel It No, not like “my cat is totally a certified therapist.” We’re talking about belief in yourself. Visualize your success. Speak it into existence. Act like it’s already happening—even if you’re still in your pajama pants. 🤟 #3 – Autosuggestion: Tell Your Brain Who’s Boss Hill believed in talking to yourself—and not just when you're looking for parking. Repeat your goals daily with emotion and confidence. Bob Proctor swore by this, and let’s face it—Bob didn’t just manifest success, he scheduled it. ✌️ #2 – Specialized Knowledge Beats a Fancy Degree Hill said it’s not about knowing everything, it’s about knowing your lane—and surrounding yourself with people who know the rest. Basically: be the quarterback, not the equipment manager. ☝️ #1 – Persistence: The Unsexy, Unstoppable Force This is where most people quit—right before the good stuff. When it’s hard. When it’s boring. When it’s Tuesday. Hill says: Don’t stop because it’s tough. Stop because you crossed the finish line. Then celebrate like Oprah just called your name. So there you have it—Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill. A timeless reminder that success doesn’t start in your wallet—it starts in your mind. If it was good enough for Bob Proctor to read every day, it might just deserve a spot on your nightstand. 📣 If you liked this countdown, give it a thumbs up, share it with someone who could use a mindset boost, and let me know in the comments—what’s one book that’s changed your life? Until next time—stay inspired, stay curious, and as always… Laugh Long and Prosper. 🌟 Judy Croon is Canada’s Keynote Humorist, Tedx motivational speaker, comedian and stand-up coach at Second City. She has worked with many celebrities including; John Cleese, Jon Stewart, and Joan Rivers. Her specials have appeared on NBC, CBS, CTV and The Comedy Network.

Mindful Monday | Top 5 Buddha-Backed Tips to Stop Worrying
🎧 Just Another Mindful Monday Countdown: Top 5 Buddha-Backed Tips to Stop Worrying (2500 years of calm — now in a convenient top 5 format!) ✋ #5 — Declutter Your Outer World In my experience, worrying thrives in chaos — like a raccoon in a messy garage. Buddha believed the external reflects the internal. So when I clean off my desk (or finally fold that laundry), my mind stops spinning like a hamster in a blender. 💭 #4 — Watch Your Thoughts, Don’t Marry Them Thoughts are like guests. Some bring wine. Some bring drama. I’ve learned (thanks to the Buddha) that I don’t have to RSVP yes to every panicky thought. I just nod politely and say, “Thanks for your concern, brain. Now please leave.” 🧘 #3 — Breathe Like You Mean It A single slow breath can cancel a full-blown worry spiral. I inhale for 4, hold for 4, exhale for 6 — and boom, I’ve gone from “What if everything goes wrong?” to “Maybe I just need a sandwich and a nap.” 📿 #2 — Let Go of the Outcome This one's tough. I love control. But worry is just control in a panic hat. When I catch myself obsessing, I remember: “Do the work. Let go of the fruits.” (That’s Buddha, not a diet plan.) It’s freeing. And fewer stomach ulcers. 🌟 #1 — Stay Here. Not There. The biggest game-changer for me? The present moment. Worry lives in the future. Peace lives in the now. When I gently tug my attention back to what’s actually happening — not the 27 disasters I’ve invented — I feel lighter, calmer, and weirdly… taller?

Mindful Monday: 5 Buddha-Inspired Life Hacks
🎧 Just Another Mindful Monday Presents: Top 5 Buddha-Backed Tips for a Calmer, Sharper You (Science-backed. Soul-approved.)   ✋ #5 — Declutter One Thing Today Your mess is messing with you—clutter spikes cortisol by 15%. 🧹 Tip: Clear one thing—your desk, purse, inbox, or even your desktop background. It’s not about becoming a minimalist. It’s about creating space for peace. ☀️ #4 — Eat Like a Monk, Not a Muppet Mindful eating boosts nutrient absorption by 30% and cuts bingeing by 75%. 🍽️ Tip: Before you eat, pause and ask: “Am I truly hungry or just bored/stressed?” Then chew slowly. Your body’s whispering answers—listen between bites. 🌬️ #3 — Breathe In, Step Out, Chill Hard Every slow breath is a rep for your nervous system. Add nature, and it's a double win. 🌿 Green space lowers cortisol by 21%, and people who live near it are 30% less likely to experience depression. No forest? No problem. A park, balcony garden, or tree-lined street still counts. 🧘 Tip: Step outside, take one mindful breath, and let the natural world work its magic. 🌻 #2 — Flex Your Gratitude Muscle Gratitude isn’t fluff—it rewires your brain. Optimists live up to 15 years longer. 🧠 Tip: Each morning, name one thing you're grateful for (yes, your coffee counts). Consistency turns gratitude into a mindset, not a moment. 🧘 #1 — Stillness is Your Superpower Just 10 minutes of daily meditation can shrink your amygdala (stress center) and grow your prefrontal cortex (focus + emotional control). 📣 Tip: Inhale for 4, hold for 4, exhale for 6. This activates your vagus nerve—calming your system like a built-in spa. 🧘‍♀️ Final Thought You don’t need a robe or a mountain to be mindful. One breath. One bite. One decluttered drawer. That’s the practice. As the Buddha said: “What you think, you become. What you feel, you attract. What you imagine, you create.” J udy Croon is Canada’s Keynote Humorist, Tedx motivational speaker, comedian and stand-up coach at Second City.

Politics, Puppies & Pinot: Comedy Uncorked with Anna & Lisa 🍷🐶🇨🇦
Welcome to Laugh Long and Prosper, where the laughs are long and the opinions are... surprisingly well-researched (after wine). In this episode, I sit down with my two great comedic friends —Anna Gustafson and Lisa Gay Tremblay —for a no-holds-barred chat about politics, puppy sitting and the power of a good Pinot. From tarriffs to tail wags, no topic is safe. ⚠️ Caution: Contains howling (from laughter and dogs),wine fuelled wisdom, and some hot takes that might just start a revolution. Or a wine club. 🎙️ Subscribe for weekly episodes full of comedy, real talk, and the occasional psychic prediction. Anna Gustafson is originally from the predominantly Scandinavian town of Lund BC. She now makes her home in Toronto. She's done stand up comedy all over Canada, she has performed at the Just For Laughs festival and she's also done a presentation on Tedx.
