<p>Moneyfulness® is a unique combination of financial grounded insights intended to address the heart of money stress: how audiences think about money! <a href="http://www.moneyfulness.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">www.moneyfulness.com</a><br />
72% (Yes you read that right) of all Americans experience stress about their finances! Here&#8217;s the thing, that money stress people have is a product of their convictions and behavior.</p>
<p>In the concept of mindfulness, there is no mention of stress reduction about money problems. People can find all kinds of stress relievers regarding depression, burn-out, anxiety, etc.<br />
For the first time, Michael Keet presents Moneyfulness® a unique concept that fills this gap in the overall concept of mindfulness.<br />
Michael presents the idea that people’s mindset about money and the practical “how-to” belong together.<br />
The audience gets walked through the seven aiding factors of mindfulness as they apply to money along with the practical steps for how to actually manage money.</p>
<p>For those who are ready to end their money stress, Moneyfulness® shows them how to never look at money the same again, for the much, much better.<br />
In an interview Michael Keet will speak on:<br />
• His incredible school of hard knocks experiences that have led to the creation of a grounded system for financial success.<br />
• How Moneyfulness® can be used by everyday folks as well as entrepreneurs, and how this can scale at home and within their business<br />
• How the value you place on people, possessions, and work ethics will directly relate to your cash flow.<br />
• The hidden relationship between personal and business finance; the skeleton key to money success.<br />
• How the experience of 25 years in the finance industry combines with the principles of mindfulness to create Moneyfulness®<br />
• Much more&#8230;<br />

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://goodnewsplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/pratham.gif"><img decoding="async" class="alignleft  wp-image-38510" style="border: 5px solid black; margin-left: 10px; margin-right: 10px;" alt="pratham" src="http://goodnewsplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/pratham.gif" width="555" height="266" /></a>About 600 of New York’s crème de la crème from the finance, technology and entertainment sectors joined forces on Friday, Oct. 4, 2013, to pledge and raise almost $2 million in funding for education efforts targeted at India’s underprivileged children. Pratham’s annual NYC gala attracted CEOs of major U.S. corporations and financial and investment firms, senior diplomats and celebrities who enjoyed a star-studded evening on board the USS Intrepid.</p>
<p>Guest speaker Chelsea Clinton shared a story about her parents being the first in their families to seek higher education. The 2013 Nobel Peace Prize contender and education activist, Malala Yousafzai, sent a special video-taped message applauding India for the gains it has made in making primary education universal and reminding the audience of all that remains to be done in other parts of the world. Hollywood and Bollywood actor Omi Vaidya emceed the gala for the second year in a row, and King of Bhangra, Bikram Singh, closed out the evening with his melodic, high-energy music.</p>
<p>A live telepresence with children at a Pratham school in Pune, India, was one of the highlights of the evening, along with live and silent auctions that had guests out-bidding each other throughout the evening. To watch a video news release from the gala, please click <a href="http://jingomedia.us7.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=21931ab67c492afa7b976fa3e&amp;id=6adb5b96df&amp;e=5d7d7382c2" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>
<p>“What sets an organization like Pratham completely apart is that we are run almost fully by volunteers,” said Dinyar Devitre, Chairman of Pratham’s Tristate Chapter Board. “From our programs in India to our galas all over America, volunteers dedicate hundreds of hours of their time, allowing us to utilize 96% of the monies we raise directly for the children.”</p>
<p>Since its start in Mumbai 20 years ago, Pratham has become one of the most influential forces in India’s educational system. It currently serves the education needs of underprivileged children in 20 of India’s 28 states and is one of the WORLD’s largest non-profit organizations in the field of primary education. Pratham’s innovations have been recognized with the Kravis Prize for Leadership, the Skoll Award for Social Entrepreneurship, and most recently, the WISE Prize, which is equated with a Nobel in Education, for its CEO &amp; Co-founder, <strong>Dr.</strong> <strong>Madhav Chavan</strong>, who spoke at the gala about four of Pratham’s major programs: Annual Status of Education Report (ASER), Read India, Second Chance, and Vocational Training.</p>
<p>“I applaud Pratham for the strides it has made in helping expand quality education for every child in India,” said Chelsea Clinton. “Pratham’s strategy of engaging all the sectors that need to work together to ensure any child anywhere gets the education he or she deserves &#8212; the government, businesses and private citizens that work collectively toward a common goal &#8212; is remarkable and should be the model followed by other countries who have similar education challenges around the world.”</p>
<p><em><b><span style="text-decoration: underline;">About Pratham:</span></b></em>  Pratham’s strategy centers on recruiting youth from the communities it serves and training them as teachers. More than 62,000 volunteers reach two million children in 20,000 villages.
