There are no accidents.
Christine Rivinius is a real go-getter. She works hard
and gets results as a top performing real estate agent
in Bismarck, North Dakota. She’s just as busy in her
roles as a devoted wife and mother of two.
With such a jam-packed life, Christine isn’t accustomed to taking breaks. There’s just too much to do!
Not so long ago, Christine did something she never
does. She tried to let herself off the hook for just one
morning at her company’s annual conference.
“I tried to make myself sleep in,” says Christine. “But I
was overwhelmed with a feeling deep within me that
told me if I stayed in my room, I could miss something, something that could change my life.”
Incredibly, Christine discovered a new way of living in
that morning session. This epiphany would lead her
to a path that she hadn’t even known existed. It was a
path that revolutionized literally EVERYTHING about
the way she lives her life.
It was there in that Las Vegas meeting room that
Michael Bernoff began to teach Christine how to learn
more about herself than she ever knew was possible.
Discovering so much about herself eventually helped
Christine begin to communicate and operate more
effectively.
At the end of the morning’s session, Michael explained Call2Action and Core Strength Experience.
Christine soared to the sign-up desk to agree to
attend Core Strength Experience in Scottsdale in less
Rather than waste time arguing with herself that day, than a month.
Christine got ready to go. Stepping into the elevator,
she discovered her first surprise of the day: Christine “My husband, Michael, is my confidante, my best

them. Good thing she didn’t sleep in!
Yet, that day, Christine signed up for Core Strength
Experience, which was taking place in a matter of

topic, or who the speaker would be.
“What I THOUGHT I needed was totally different
than what I ended up learning.”
“Today, I have the strategies I need to perform at the very highest
level and achieve the same extraordinary results in less time.”
“Absolutely, Christine,” Michael told her. “We’ll get
things ready for you to go to Scottsdale for this
course next spring.”
But Christine was insistent. “No, Michael, I HAVE to
do this and I have to do it THIS spring, in just a few
weeks.”
And she did, with Michael’s blessing.
That’s when Christine’s journey really took off, with
Michael Bernoff as her guide.
“Michael Bernoff is very charismatic,” Christine explains. “Yet his magic is FAR more than charisma, it’s
his ability to immediately get your attention. Everything he says has you feeling like ‘it’s never enough’.”
“During the very first day of Core Strength Experience, I began to see that what I THOUGHT I needed
Michael to teach me was totally different than what I
ended up learning from him.”
“I went to Core Strength Experience for what I wanted, but I wound up getting what I really needed,”
Christine explains.
Today, with Michael’s courses, Christine has become
a better human being. She finally feels capable of
achieving her maximum potential, which makes her
feel limitless and powerful.
As a mother, wife, and thriving businesswoman,
Christine began Core Strength Experience already
knowing how to be successful. She had already
achieved results in each of those areas. Yet there were
times when challenges arose, and Christine found
that keeping everything balanced was hard.
As she learned to apply the principles learned from
Michael Bernoff, each area of Christine’s life became
smoother and easier to manage. Her communication
style is clearer, and her business appointments are
more effective, yet take less time.
Plus, she continues to enjoy improved success in real
estate--her closings speak for themselves.
Christine is confident and excited about what the
future holds. “Today, I have the strategies I need to
perform at the very highest level, achieve the same
extraordinary results in less time than ever before,
while staying calm and even.”
Thoughts from Michael
on Raising the Bar
Christine is, by anyone’s definition, a successful person. She found her perfect niche in the world of real estate and is enjoying the benefits that come from truly loving her work. When I met Christine, I could see she
was already moving at the speed of light. Her enthusiastic motivation is a magnet that draws people to her,
and it shows. Yet what often comes along with people that are the “Do-ers” of the world is a relentless pursuit to be more and do more. And with Christine, this is true. And I admire that quality! Yet as I worked with
Christine, I could see that she was consuming a tremendous amount of energy that could be reduced and that
is what we focused on.
How? By learning to be a better communicator. You see, what often comes along with people that have the
same type of passion and commitment to success as Christine is an inner dialogue that is constantly searching
for the next step. Constantly searching for ways to improve situations or opportunities. Over a short period
of time, Christine learned to calm that inner dialogue and instead learned to have more powerful conversations with those around her. This made all the difference in the world.
What used to be mind-consuming and time-consuming now requires much less effort. From her business
dealings to parenting two daughters, she gets to the heart of matters faster and finds everything is just, well,
easier than before. She has found a new and impactful way to ramp up her life to a whole new level--increasing her effectiveness and impact--all in less time!
Now that’s success.
If you look at Christine now and compare her to the Christine she was two years ago, you might not recognize
much difference. She was successful then, and is successful today. She looked healthy and happy then and
looks healthy and happy today. The difference is what’s going on inside of her. She still has that bright, infectious smile and a uniquely upbeat way of getting her message across. Yet today, she knows the value of powerful words and uses them to get more of what she wants out of each conversation. This allows her to have so
much more inner peace and a lot more free time! The confidence she has inside is so much greater because
she knows she can handle herself masterfully in any situation. And when it comes down to life, what’s more
important to an individual than knowing you have the confidence to take the next step?
Now that’s progress.
