One of the bullshit phrases I used to hear at Amway meetings
was “If you can dream it you can have it.”
Amway sells dreams of wealth and greed. Puts hope into the hearts of the cult
followers that this phrase might actually come true for them.
“If you can dream it you can have it” sounds more like it should be a slogan
for the Powerball lottery. The chances of winning the lottery are probably
better than ever becoming an Amway Diamond!
Unfortunately that slogan was used for one weekend at Amway Spring Leadership
but you can choose any other Scamway function. Ambots are told something to the
effect of “If you can dream it you can have it”. This will be brainwashed into
them relentlessly until they are programmed to believe that Amway is the only
way their dreams can come true.
There are all kinds of things I dream about but I know these dreams won’t come
true.
I can dream that I’m a few inches smaller or taller but its never going to
happen.
I can dream that I’m fluent in 5 languages but seeing as how I have enough
trouble just with English I doubt that dream will ever come true for me.
I can dream of climbing Mount Everest but that won’t happen because I have
trouble breathing at high altitudes.
I can dream of walking around the Grand Canyon Skywalk but I think that would
creep me out.
I can dream I’m 25 years old again but I don’t think I’ll ever see it happen!
I can dream of camping on Alcatraz but I doubt the Parks Service will let me do
that.
I can dream about owning spiders but that would creep me out even more than the
skywalk!
I can dream that I’m married to Brad Pitt. Who knows? I might still fit that
one in before I die!
I can dream I have a Kim Kardashian ass but probably not going to happen.
I can dream I can walk on water. Will the Great Amway God
give me that power?
The point is there are all kinds of things that people can dream about and the
dreams will never come true, whether or not money is a barrier. Some of the
things I mentioned can be done on the cheap. I think the Everest expedition
costs some big bucks but costs aside no matter how much I dream I’m standing on
the peak I would arrive to the base camp and not be able to ascend.

What do ambots motivated by greed dream about? Big houses, sports cars,
sailboats, luxury vacations. The things their Diamond cult leaders taunt them
with from the stage. The ambots want what their cult leaders have. They dream
about becoming a Diamond which is a rare occurrence in Amway and having all kinds
of money to blow. Not likely. Amway’s own literature shows Diamonds with an
annual income of around $150,000. Not too bad but they have to pay taxes, have
a huge mortgage on a home they spent too much money buying, loans for those
luxury sports cars. They spend a lot of money keeping up a phony illusion that
they have more money than they really do.
No matter how badly the ambots dreaming of acquiring all these material
possessions and retiring early while bazillions of dollars in residual income
keeps rolling in from Amway every month, it is unlikely to happen. It might
happen if they focused their energy on something that has a greater chance of
success than less than 1%.
If you dream it you can have it, the slogan that’s been ingrained into us.
Right now the only thing I dream about is Amway being shut down for good so
this evil company and its evil cult leaders can’t hurt anyone anymore.
So what do you think? The Diamonds said if I can dream it I can have it.
Or is this just further proof those fucking Amway Diamonds are a bunch of
liars?
The whole idea of the "self-improvement" movement is that you can think yourself into anything at all, if you wish hard enough. Look at that stupid book "Think and Grow Rich," which is always celebrated at Amway meetings.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous - well I'm still dreaming that Amway has shut down so we don't always get what we dream for! But I can dream and maybe in my lifetime it will happen!
