- "If a nation expects
to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what
never was and never will be." -- Thomas Jefferson
|
- Enroll in GeorgeWashingtonCoaching
and read the five most important works in the history of Western
Civilization in one year, a few minutes a day.
|
|
|
- You prefer security rather than liberty
(learn more)
|
- Liberty (capitalism)
made America the most prosperous nation in history, raising the
standard of living for all
- "Security" (socialism)
leads to poverty and mass death.
|
- Enroll in GeorgeWashingtonCoaching
and read the best book on capitalism ever written.
- You won't just drag your eyes over the words on a page, but really
have an intuitive grasp of why capitalism works and socialism fails.
|
- George Washington exemplified virtue and
character
|
|
|
- Learn the Ten Commandments inside out,
as well as the rest of God's Law, and learn how to apply God's
commandments to every
area of life.
|
|
|
- flabby
- undisciplined
- unable to resist the temptations of today's media
|
- Tyranny is a temptation. The inability
to resist temptation makes one a slave.
|
|
- impeccably fit physically (Thomas
Jefferson said nobody could ride a horse better than George
Washington)
|
- Obesity is a major health problem in
America today.
- This is just a symptom of underlying faith-decay.
|
- If you live in a nation where everyone
is unfit to resist tyranny, and dependent on the government for the
security and full-bellies they crave, then they will turn on you if
you rock the boat.
- Not only do you need to become mentally and physically fit, but
you need to help your neighbors as a coach or mentor.
|
- Someone has said there are four things
everyone needs to work on:
- Faith
- Family
- Finances
- Fitness
- The GeorgeWashingtonCoaching
program focuses primarily on your faith, with obvious spill-over
effects on your family and finances, but less applicable to your
fitness.
- Listen to the GeorgeWashingtonCoaching
audio files while you walk or exercise.

- Studious -- educational attainment in
every field:
- History
- Political Science
- Geography
- Law
- Military strategy
|
- Being educated and well-informed is
essential to good citizenship.
And of the children of Issachar, which
were men that had understanding of the times, to know what Israel
ought to do; the heads of them were two hundred; and all their
brethren were at their commandment.
1
Chronicles 12:32 |
|
- The reconstruction of a Godly society
begins with you. Not with "leaders" in Washington. It really
does begin with you.
|
- By the time you finish the GeorgeWashingtonCoaching
program, you will have learned a great deal about all of these
subjects (not including "military strategy").
|
- Courageous, facing an armed enemy
|
- You're afraid to speak out against
tyranny for fear of an IRS audit, or getting put on a
"no-fly" list.
|
- People who are fearful are easy targets
for a tyrannical government.
- They are willing to wear government
uniforms, to appear impressive.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Again, this is not directly covered in
the GeorgeWashingtonCoaching
program.
- Will anything like this ever be said of
you if you don't begin a disciplined, daily journey to become
extraordinary?
|
- MOST Americans in 1776 were more
physically fit, and knew
more about
- History
- Political Science
- Geography
- Law
- than Americans do today.
|
You
may well rank higher than most Americans, and be much closer to George
Washington and other extraordinary American Founders, but you are still a
product of your century, a product of your society. |
America
will continue its slow decline into sin and mediocrity unless you change
your own course. America may plunge into economic catastrophe and chaos,
and you can provide direction ... |
...
but only if you enroll in the GeorgeWashingtonCoaching
program. |
- George Washington, Samuel Adams, John
Hancock, were not flukes or superhumans. They were the products of an
educational program which we're going to recreate here at GeorgeWashingtonCoaching.
|
"Ideas
have consequences." You are the consequence of ideas. Britain is
a socialist nation, the consequence of bad ideas. America became a great
nation because of the idea of "Liberty
Under God." |
George
Washington and Samuel Adams were Englishmen, but they had different ideas
about Liberty and the Faith than their British counterparts. |
There
weren't any remarkable genetic or racial differences between the British
and the Americans. But America became great, while Britain stagnated and
declined. It was ideas that made the difference. Those ideas
will become a part of you if you enroll in
the GeorgeWashingtonCoaching
program. |
Imagine George Washington is your personal coach.
| Click the first statement
that rings true for you: |
- "I don't know what a 'Personal Coach' is."
- "I know what a 'Personal Coach' is, but I don't think I
need one."
- "OK, maybe I could really benefit from personal
coaching, but what's so great about George Washington?"
- "I think this may be exactly what I've been looking
for. How can I get more information?"
|
- Was George Washington perfect? Was he sinless? Did he never make a
mistake?
No Washington made some huge blunders. If
he were here today, he would see the terrible consequences of his
mistakes, and urge us to repudiate them.
Nevertheless,
- For generations, George Washington was the most
revered man in America. His portrait could be seen in every public
building, in every school, and in many bedrooms of America's boys. He
was a hero and an icon.
-
- Today's
Americans know very little about the man.
- They know that his face is on the one-dollar bill ...
(but they
don't know that the government has
destroyed over 90% of the
value of the dollar)
- They've
been told he "owned slaves."
(He inherited
slaves, and worked to free them.
Washington would say that
the ordinary American in
2011 is
a slave -- most Americans prefer a form of
pampered slavery
rather than freedom and
personal
responsibility. Proof here.)
- That's pretty much all they can tell you about George
Washington.
- Americans 100 years ago would be flabbergasted
that that's about all Americans in 2011 know about George Washington,
"the
Father of his Country."
- But today's Americans, despite their ignorance, would have very
dogmatic opinions about George Washington if he were alive today. He
would probably be arrested by the Department of Homeland Security.
-
- Today is a good day to resolve this question in your mind:
- Should you admire Washington and try to emulate his virtues?
- Or should you despise him and his values, and pay more attention
to today's heroes -- Barack
Obama and Hillary Clinton?
If you suspect that Americans 200 years ago Americans were a
better judge of good character and had higher values than Americans today,
then you should enroll in GeorgeWashingtonCoaching.
- Our program is extraordinarily simple.
-
extraordinarily powerful.

Praises
for Washington by his contemporaries
"His integrity was
most pure, his justice the most inflexible I have ever known, no motives
of interest or consanguinity, of friendship or hatred, being able to
bias his decision. He was indeed, in every sense of the words, a wise, a
good, and a great man." -- Thomas Jefferson
- How would integrity, courage,
morality, and wisdom transform your life:
- your marriage
- your business
- your children
- your relationship with God
- Do people with integrity, courage,
morality, and wisdom succeed better than people who are cheats,
wimps, immoral, and foolish?
- Of course they do.
- In general, that's how the
universe works. According to George Washington and America's
Founding Fathers, the universe is governed by the "Invisible
Hand" of "Divine Providence." (Job
was the exception that proves the rule. At least at
first.) And you may live (temporarily) under a tyrannical
government that punishes extraordinary people and rewards cheats,
wimps, immoral, and foolish people instead. But in the long run, you
are better off being extraordinary. Your country is
better off if you resist tyranny and become extraordinary.
George Washington's Advice
Every single person who signed the Declaration of Independence and the
Constitution, if they could visit America in 2011, would take immediate
steps to repeal the Constitution and abolish the government it created.
It takes virtue
and a strong sense of morality
to understand why.
Do you understand why
George Washington lead a struggle to abolish
a government which was far more Christian and far more libertarian than
the government we have today, but which he called a "tyranny?"
George Washington led the American
colonists in an effort to abolish a tyrannical government. The government
he called a "tyranny"
had a tax on a pound of tea that was ten times lower than the tax
we pay on a gallon of gas. What he called a "tyranny" was more
representative than our modern "Administrative
State," and "tyrants" in his day would never have
dreamed of using colonial tax revenue to fund
abortions, marry homosexuals,
or remove all copies of the Ten Commandments from public
schools and courthouses.
|
- The program is simple:
- We follow George Washington's advice.
- We learn from his example.
We avoid his mistakes.
-
- The program is powerful:
- It's the same program that made America
- the most prosperous and admired nation
in history.
We're going to make you as smart as an ordinary colonial American 5th
grader, along with extraordinary wisdom and character. |
Some people
have asked:
- Why is George Washington worth imitating
or following?
- What would George Washington's advice to
me be?
- What ideas are taught in this program?
- Can I be a good American without trying
to be an extremist like George Washington?
- Can I be a good Christian if I'm not
even a good American?
- Is this coaching program easy or hard?
- How will this program benefit me?
- Who is behind this program?
- Do I have to wear a powdered wig to
participate?
- Answers are here.

You are a victim of
Educational Malpractice.
Compared to colonial Americans, you are an ignorant barbarian. Sure,
you know how to use your Blackberry. But bring a 9-year-old into the
21st century from 1776, and the kid would be able to figure out how to
use your computer and remote control as fast as you did. But Colonial
Americans could read the Federalist Papers and debate the issues
intelligently. You can't. They had the moral courage to fight against
tyranny. You don't.
There were three things that America's Founding Fathers believed
schools should teach, and you were deprived of all three -- by law.
These three things are prescribed in America's "Organic
Law," and even today can still be found in many state
constitutions, but you probably don't even know what "organic
law" means.
What were the three things that every school in America was supposed
to teach?
What are the three things that made America the most prosperous and
admired nation in history?
What are the three things that were taken out of government-run
schools in the 20th century, and as a result have crippled Americans
like you and me, leaving America a bankrupt
and despised nation?
GeorgeWashingtonCoaching
will tell you, and will transform you into
- an extraordinary American
- an extraordinary Christian
- an extraordinary Human Being

George Washington's Advice
On May 2, 1778, when the Continental Army
had emerged from its infamous winter at Valley Forge, Commander-in-Chief
George Washington issued the following:
The commander-in-chief directs that
divine service be performed every Sunday at eleven o'clock in those
brigades [in] which there are chaplains; those which have none [are] to
attend the places of worship nearest to them. It is expected that
officers of all ranks will by their attendance set an example to their
men. While we are zealously performing the duties of good citizens and
soldiers, we certainly ought not to be inattentive to the higher
duties of religion. To the distinguished character of patriot, it
should be our highest glory to add the more distinguished character of Christian.
The signal instances of providential
goodness which we have experienced, and which have now almost
crowned our labors with complete success, demand from us in a peculiar
manner the warmest returns of gratitude and piety to the Supreme Author
of all good.
The Writings of George Washington,
JC Fitzpatrick, ed., Wash. DC: US Gov't Printing Office, 1932, Vol.
XI:342-343, General Orders of 5/2/1778
On May 12, 1779, in a speech to the Delaware
Indian Chiefs, Washington coached them:
You do well to wish to learn our arts and
ways of life, and above all, the religion of Jesus Christ.
These will make you a greater and happier people than you are. Congress
will do every thing they can to assist you in this wise intention.
The Writings of George Washington,
JC Fitzpatrick, ed., Wash. DC: US Gov't Printing Office, 1932, Vol
15, p.55.

George Washington has been criticized for owning slaves
-- even though he inherited them, and even though it was illegal
for him to free them (when Virginia tried passing laws against slavery, the
King of Britain overruled them). But being a slave in a Christian
nation is better than being "free" in an atheistic nation.
In the Soviet Union, workers on the collective farms were allowed a
small plot of land to grow what they wanted, and sell for whatever they
could get. These small plots of capitalism saved the entire nation from
starvation. "Two percent of privately
owned Soviet farmland was producing fully 30 percent of the countrys
grain."
Today's Secular America is like the atheistic Soviet Union. The
government claims ownership of more
than 2/3 of everything you earn. The majority of industry is
regulated by the State. Yet the small amount of freedom left to us
provides us with iPods, big-screen TV, microwaves, and info-tainment. We
think we are wealthy. But we are not free.
In America, the percentage of privately-owned property -- truly and
securely owned -- is not much different from the percentage in the
Soviet Union. George
Washington's ideal was for every American to live peacefully under
his own "Vine & Fig Tree." This was the original
"American Dream." Today's "American Dream" is a fixed-rate
mortgage. The bank actually owns your home. This is a form of
slavery, as anyone who signed the Constitution would tell you. Even if
you pay off your mortgage, the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that the
government can take your home and give it to someone else who might
use your property differently and pay more taxes to the government than
you do.
Consider the challenge of Samuel Adams.
Americans today love "wealth" (if "gangsta-rap
cell-phone ring-tones" can be considered "wealth") better
than liberty and personal responsibility. Because Americans have been
denied the three most important features of colonial schools in America,
they are ignorant and illiterate
-- like slaves.
GeorgeWashingtonCoaching
will transform you into
- an extraordinary American
- an extraordinary Christian
- an extraordinary Human Being
|
Samuel Adams, speaking at the State House in Philadelphia, to
a very numerous audience on August 1, 1776:
If
ye love wealth better than liberty,
the tranquillity of servitude more than
the animating contest of freedom
go from us in peace.
We ask not your counsels or arms.
Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you.
May your chains sit lightly upon you, and
may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen!
If you are an ordinary American, you are a pampered slave.
You are wealthy beyond the imagination of anyone alive in 1776. But you
would rather keep the remote control of your TV than risk
it by fighting for liberty and personal responsibility.

In a nutshell, public schools 200 years ago taught Americans to follow
George Washington's advice: to be a good Christian.
- The human beings that settled the New World
- were the same species of humans that remained in Europe.
- But America became extraordinary,
while Europe stagnated under monarchy and socialism.
- The difference was ideas.
- Ideas have consequences.
These same ideas can have consequences in your life.
In 1776, America had become the pinnacle of Christian Civilization, also
called "Western Civilization." Personally, Americans were
hard-working and charitable. Politically, Americans perceived that the
initiation of force by government was inconsistent with Christianity.
America was a land of "Liberty
Under God," a "City
upon a Hill," a light to the world.
The Internet gives an adult living in 2011 the capability of
re-creating a colonial education in just one year. If you can muster the
moral courage to give up one hour of the mainstream media and replace it
with the GeorgeWashingtonCoaching
Program, you can begin acting as your own "City upon a Hill"
and influence your culture -- from your neighborhood to our globe.

You Need to Read the Five Most Important
Works in the History of America and Western Civilization
- There are three main components of the George-Washington-Coaching
Program. The first is reading the five most important works in the
history of America and Western Civilization. Most Americans in 1776
knew these ideas backwards and forwards, and certainly a lot better
than most Americans today. You may be in the top 1% of Americans in
terms of knowing these key ideas, and yet be in the bottom 50% of
Americans in 1776.
The first book, of course -- the
most significant book in the history of America and Western
Civilization -- is the Bible. During the next 365 days, you will read
the Bible from cover to cover in a way you never have before. In 1837,
the Supreme Court of Delaware said this:
- Long before Lord Hale declared that
Christianity was a part of the laws of England, the Court of Kings
Bench, 34 Eliz. in Ratcliff's case, 3 Coke Rep. 40, b. had gone so far
as to declare that "in almost all cases, the common law was
grounded on the law of God, which it was said was causa causans,"
and the court cited the 27th chapter of Numbers, to show that their
judgment on a common law principle in regard to the law of
inheritance, was founded on God's revelation of that law to Moses.
State v. Chandler, 2 Harr. 553 at 561 (1837)
- Day by day, your eyes will be opened as you see how the Bible is
the foundation of liberty
and civilization
as we know it. More
program details here.
