If we do stop and think about it most people would say God first, Family second and Career is third. As we go through the hustle and bustle of each week, we often lose sight of this undeniable truth.
One of the secrets of keeping your focus is to make sure that you are surrounded by like minded people. The fact is that over time you are going to share the same values, and income with the 6 people that you consider you best friends.
That is why it is so important to align yourself with people and companies that share your values.
This Blog will explore some of those commercial organizations that not only share the value of God first, Family Second and Career third, but who have a product that improves society and that contribute to the Greater Good.
The first company that will be examined is Bookwise.
BookWiseTM is the brainchild of #1 bestselling author Richard Paul Evans. Shortly after Evans wrote his internationally bestselling financial book The Five Lessons A Millionaire Taught Me About Life and Wealth, he began looking for ways for his readers to "win in the margins". Unsatisfied with the business models already available, Evans set out to create the most logical, enjoyable home-based business in the world—one with low risk and high potential income. Following his passion for books, Evans, with the help of business experts, developed a revolutionary way to not only build a home-based business but to improve personal intellect and well-being and build a better world.
Specifically, BookWise has a bookstore that is posed to compete with both Amazon and Barnes and Nobel. They offer over 1.5 million book titles, over 140,000 music cd's, movie dvd's and video games. They are offering prices that are the same as or better than either Amazon or B&N preferred customer program ... however, they have a twist:
BookWise is the only major Internet bookseller that filters for content.
"Bear in mind that BookWise is not about censorship. Freedom demands input from contrasting points of view. Freedom of speech and press is essential to enlightenment. We may not like what you say, but we'll fight to defend your right to say it. A few (thankfully very few) Associates have complained because there were books that did not agree with their religious, political or specific beliefs. This is not enlightened and we will not bend to accommodate such intolerance. However, there are books we do find objectionable. Books dealing with pornography, satanism and the blatant promotion of suicide or murder we will not carry."
BookWise is taking the most objectionable material off their shelves. With all the efforts that families take to protect their children this attempt at moving the most objectionable material should be commended.
Does BookWise create enrichement in the lives of its associates and the general public?
BookWise prinicpal products are Books and Success Training. It is undisputable that these two products enrich the lives of those who are exposed to them.

Every major world movement began with a book. From Uncle Tom's Cabin to The Communist Manifesto, every major political revolution has a book at its core. From the Bible to the Qur'an, every major religious movement started with a book. From Rachel Carson's Silent Spring to Upton Sinclair's The Jungle, every societal upheaval was born of a book. No wonder books are cherished, extolled and even feared.

Is BookWise an Enlightened Company?
Enlightenement can be defined in several different ways. BookWise seeks to be enlightened in a number of ways that are extremely important.
BookWise understands that giving is not only rewarding, but creates wealth to the person giving.
First, 1% from the sale of EVER book, CD, DVD or game sold will go to charity,
BookWise donates thousands of books to children and school systems who are less fortunate and not able to purchase them.
BookWise also donates 10% of all profits to charities.
Most companies do not see the wisdom of automatically donating both a portion of sales and profits to a charitable cause.... at Bookwise consider it essential... They consider it wise..
The Consider it Bookwise.
Another aspect of being enlightened is the fact that Bookwise provides a Better Your Life Guarantee.
What is the BookWise Better your Life Guarantee.... it is simple...
An active Bookwise Associate has a full year to test, try and build their business. If after that year, they are not convinced in that Bookwise has improved and better their life, they simply request a refund from Bookwise and the monthly fees will be returned to you (excluding tax) and you get to keep the books they acquired over the year.

Letting a person "test" the business for a full year with out risk or penalty is an exceptional example of a company that has both confidence in their product and a realization it is better to leave behind a person who has experienced Good Will as opposed to a bad experience.
