3 Easy Steps To Being Positive Now

March 1, 2011

If you are having a bad day here are three easy ways to be positive now:

Strategy one: Compare things to 200 years ago. You actually enjoy a better standard of living than the kings and queens of a couple of hundred years ago! Are you not driving around in a horseless carriage, do you not have hot baths whenever you want them, can you not find out pretty much anything you need to know at your finger tips? A pretty incredible transformation of the world to our advantage. You are a witness to an incredible time of new inventions, technology and science in an ever-changing world and can experience the many benefits availabe to you. That is pretty special, wouldn’t you say?.

Strategy Two: Do something you enjoy. Sounds pretty straightforward, really. So many people know what they like doing yet somehow don’t make the time to do it. Hey, look after yourself, take some time out and do what you enjoy doing. OK I know I said these would be strategies for right now but even in your office you can perhaps put on the music you like, contact your best friend or even look at the picture of family on your desk. However you have to make a choice to do these, you might think these all sound to trivial to do and that they won’t make you feel positive today, well if that is how you choose to be then so be it but if you do want to feel positive you have got to meet it half way. Positive self talk always helps too.

And lastly strategy three: Failing the above take your two index fingers and place them either side of your mouth now push the skin up so that your mouth makes a nice smile, now remove the fingers and keep your mouth in the same position and hold it for a minute. Science has proven that the very act of smiling makes you feel happy so you can wait for others to make you smile or you can do it yourself. I’d say that’s pretty cool.

I’ll throw in one more for luck: If you are down and depressed, sing out aloud one of your favorite songs at the top of your voice! (You may want to find a locked room if you’re shy). Doing so is not only a highly cathartic release it is also creative, two reasons that it will make you happy, not including the fact that you’ll feel a little silly and giggly for doing it. You could also try the power of positive affirmations, creative visualization or subliminalMP3s.com too if you get time.

Life is about nothing more than choices, engage them and take the positive options and the positive results will follow!


Motivation In A Minute

February 24, 2011

It is easy to blame our lack of achievement on somebody or something else however it is an extremely unsatisfactory feeling to continually underachieve. Past negative experiences should not prevent you from keeping and meeting your positive goals in life. Reliving the past won’t do you well unless you can use it as a propellent to your new, successful future. Once you have chosen your path to success you must next act on that desire. That is the Secret.. The secret does work and will never let you down.

You will find that the hardest part about taking action in this very first part of actually getting started after that it is easy. You may be trying to get outside to take a walk or a run and find just getting out the door is the hardest part of the trip. With that first step out the door the second step comes easier and the third, even easier, until you are practically at a full run. So just get started and use positive thinking to help you.

It doesn’t hurt to question a method that you have found successful in any facet of your life, be it business or personal. If you have a great training program test it to see if you can improve it by varying different elements of it. Keep doing this until you find the most efficient combination.

Repeatedly working at a system that works best for you will inevitably bring all of those positive, good things to your doorstep. Duplicate, reiterate, repeat; whatever you call it, the bottom line is you need to do it over and over again to achieve the success you are looking for. Stand firm and don’t lose sight of what you want out of life; focus on the positive, set your mind to it and the rest should fall into place. Stay strong in your pursuits and never quit until you have reached that goal.

Once you have used this overall positive approach to one area of your life, the great thing is you can transfer this mind-set and approach to any area of your life you so desire. This is the core foundation to many successful people success and there is no reason why you shouldn’t copy this format. Arnold Schwarzenegger is a good example of persistence and determination; first winning in bodybuilding, then, against all odds, started starring in movies and transforming himself successfully into a politician. They are incredibly diverse areas of life to go into a be successful in but he did it with this mind-set or what is more commonly spoken of these days as the secret law of attraction. You really can have the life of your dreams but it is down to you. When are you going to start?


Are You Still Seeking Wealth?

February 20, 2011

Up the creek without a paddle? You’re not alone. Trying to find that money you’ve been seeking? One of the key problems causing this is due to lack of wealth education. Wealth education is not taught in schools not to any great degree anyway and even then it is taught by people who are not necessarily qualified to be teaching about wealth.

You wouldn’t ask a drummer or guitarist to teach you to play piano, now would you. Then why heed the advice of people who don’t have what you want; who are struggling themselves. Look for someone who can mentor you in the ways of the wealthy. Finding a person who has already achieved what you want is necessary if you plan on learning these important lessons.

So other than finding someone to learn from who is already wealthy and willing to teach you (The Bob Proctor 11 Forgotten Laws philosopher would be one such teacher), here are a few other tips:

When you start out in any venture it may well be that at first you lose money, do not be afraid of this. View this loss of money as part of your education, it is in fact an investment in yourself.

As most people know, life is not fair. Well, neither is wealth and the sooner you accept that the better off you’ll be. It will come to you only if you think smart, use your time wisely and provide a service. The quality of time instead of the quantity of time spent is what determines your success. Engage in positive self talk to reflect this.

Once you have started to make some money in what you are doing, you need to reinvest that money. If you have more than one venture and one is making more money remember to invest some of that gain into the other business as well. Want to be rich? Put that money back into the business. If spent you risk falling into the had habit of losing your money not making more of it.

When you have found a formula, business or system that works then repeat that system, continually testing that system to make it ever more efficient. Money is like a living thing; it moves around but it is still there even in bad times like now. The money is out there flowing around you at all times; you just need to catch some of it. You can do this by providing something that they need.

Read and follow the Napoleon Hill Think And Grow Rich Philososphy

None of the above are difficult to do, they will work for anybody all that it requires for you to do is to follow through on them. Are you able to do this? It is your future. Of course you can.


Ready To Become A Millionaire?

February 19, 2011

Let’s cut to the chase, whilst money doesn’t guarantee happiness it can certainly open doors to a lot of things that do. If helping others makes you happy then donating money is one of the best ways to do this; If travel is your thing, then of course you’ll be needing to pay for that around-the-world vacation somehow; or shop-til-you-drop with the money you will make.

Take the Millionaire Step right now; here’s how. It is not the only process to become wealthy but it is certainly a way to become wealthy. Here’s what you do:. The next time you get a financial break, be it a pay raise, bonus, inheritance or whatever, save it. At all costs avoid the temptation to buy the new car you wanted, renovate the house or whatever else you had in mind. This is a sure-fire way to prevent yourself from becoming wealthy. If your mindset currently struggles with this then why not try to reprogram it with subliminalmp3s.com

What you need to do is to hold on to that money and continue to add to it until you are in a position to invest it in something. Instead of you having to work for money why not let money do the work for you for a change. It can and will if used correctly generate you income, there are many ways to do this even simply placing it in a bank account will do this.

The best investments, however, are those that will yield a passive income. Stocks, shares, online businesses, rental housing all come under this heading. Essential also is the putting aside of cash from your regular nine to five job.

Passive income is different from the income you get from your day job as it requires you to do the work just once yet get paid for that same work over and over again. This type of income is what will allow you to become ‘rich’. Creating multiple streams of passive income is the best way forward, followwing through on this and your future financial well-being will be ensured.

Simultaneously whilst creating passive income you need to be continuing to resist the temptation to squander your money or overstretch and burden yourself with expensive things that you don’t particularly need you will in the longer run be able to afford all of those luxuries and more and that is precisely what the millionaire step is. These are someof the fundamental parts of the Bob Proctor 11 forgotten laws program that has bought success to so many people already.

Acting on these piecesof advice is all you need to do. Yes it requires positive thinking and discipline but wouldn’t you rather show a little discipline now and see big rewards later as opposed to giving in to temptation now and being left with little to show for it later. It’s your choice.


The Dynamics Of Desire, Belief And Expectation

February 17, 2011

Desire, belief and expectation. Three small words, yet capable of many great things. The road to success awaits anyone who masters these three simple concepts.

It all starts with desire. Napoleon Hill Think And Grow Rich hit the nail on the head when he stated:

“Desire is the starting point of all achievement, not a hope, not a wish, but a keen pulsating desire which transcends everything”

You have to firstly know what it is you desire, what it is you want to devote yourself to. If you haven’t worked this out then no amount of hard work will help as you simply do no know which direction you need to be travelling in or what you will find when you get there. Your desire needs to be something genuine; if it is not, when the time comes for taking action or when you run into problems, you may not have the inner drive to continue.

Belief: If you do not think you can do something you are unlikely to do it. You must believe enough to give the goal you desire your very best efforts.. For this reason it is best to set your heart on a goal that you can believe in. Your desire may be to become a millionaire but if you don’t believe you can then you may as well not start. In this situation it would be better to set a goal of say $10,000 which may be a more realistic goal, a goal you really do believe you can achieve this strategy would be much more likely to succeed for you.

Expectation, expect success. If you have done the above two steps properly then there is no reason why you shouldn’t expect success. This will be especially true if you have already started to take positive action towards your goal. nine times out of ten your expectations are filled with what you expected. Call it the secret and the law of attraction, coincidence whatever you like but expectation equals success and you can create expectation in your mind by following the first two steps.

Putting the above three steps into place is not a difficult process. The key, however, is to persist day after day, week after week and even year after year if necessary. That is the Think And Grow Rich secret of Napoleon Hill and is how dreams are made reality and that is how you can achieve anything you desire. The choice is yours to make!



When Positive Thinking Doesn’t Work

February 16, 2011

You may know people like this: positive, upbeat, idealistic and well-intentioned. However take a look at what they have actually achieved in life and you cn see straightaway that positive thinking hasn’t worked for them, they may be happy but no real tangible results have been achieved.

You need to combine positive actions with your positive thinking to obtain the results you seek. Wallace D Wattles, one of the great writers on metaphysics and personal development stated: 

“Thinking in a certain way will bring riches to you, but you must not rely on thought alone, paying no attention to personal action. This is the rock upon which many otherwise scientific metaphysical thinkers meet shipwreck – the failure to connect thought with personal action.”

He pretty much hit the nail on the head right there. Whatever you want to achieve yes of course you must believe you can achieve it and think positively about that situation however you need to take persistent and positive action also.

It can be difficult for people to really get this concept of positive action as they try to fulfil their goals and dreams. Taking action now right from the start point that you are at in this very moment is what you must do, Wallace D Wattles:

“You cannot act where you are not. You cannot act where you have been, and you cannot act where you are going to be. You can only act where you are. Do not dwell on whether yesterday’s work was well or poorly done. Do today’s work well. Do not try to do tomorrow’s work now. There will be plenty of time to do that when tomorrow comes. If you take care of the action, the attraction will always take care of itself.” 

Once you have taken positive action towards your goal over a period of time then you can start to see the effects of the law of attraction working in your favour. Circumstances, people, places and events can all line-up for you providing you with a smooth passage towards your goals. In fact once you know how to use the law of attraction in this manner your life will be forever improving and that is exactly what the Bob Proctor 11 Forgotten Laws program is all about.

Set those goals, focus on them and think positively, knowing that by acting on them regularly the law of attraction will be working with you to meet those ends. Create your own success by learning how others do it now.


Great Thoughts Equal Great Wealth

February 15, 2011

Great thoughts can appear from nowhere. Memories are thoughts also. They can be from a better time in your life and this is a good thing to recall in your mind because it is positive. Thoughts are continually entering your mind at random and all of the time.

If this is true then how do we control thoughts that seem to come from nowhere? Streaming your thoughts towards the positive aspects of life and not the negative can be easily attained.

The first exercise you should practice is learning not to dwell on the negative thoughts in your mind if you can’t stop them in their tracks. If a negative thought appears, just drop it, consciously select a new thought to think about. As with anything else in life, the longer you work at what may at first seem odd to you, the more automatic it becomes to practice. This is a super mind power set to be in.

This technique of dealing with the flow of thoughts through your mind can be used to bring you, wealth, health or whatever else it is you desire. Your thoughts can fester over your lack of money which will inevitably push out any positive thoughts you need to be focusing on so go ahead and make the statement to yourself that yes, you are broke, but then let it go so you have more room to plant the positive thoughts and let them grow. In fact Bob Proctor 11 Forgotten Laws highly successful product is about exactly this.

Thinking you’re broke to thinking you’re rich is a huge leap and may not feel comfortable to do. But what you can do is go to the next better feeling thought. It’s sort of like counting your blessings instead of sheep; instead of thinking about how little money you feel you have, be grateful you have a job where you are making money. A Positive should always follow a negative in order to turn those bad thoughts off and tune into the good ones.

If you don’t take control of your own thoughts, others will do it for you and not always to your benefit. Just like you need a certain amount of daily physical activity in your life you also need to exercise your way of thinking on a daily basis so you don’t get dragged down by the bad things we see and hear every day. Visions boards as featured in the hit movie the secret are also invaluable in doing this. If you want to know how to make a vision board then you’ll find it is as simple as putting pictures of your dreams and putting them on a board in a place that you can see them everyday.

So, my challenge to you is to seize back control of your thoughts, they are yours and you can decide what you focus on. The law of attraction ( one of the universe laws) will settle itself around you making the change of your thought habits that much easier to do and allowing you, through positivity, to reach whatever goals you have set for yourself.


The Secret Law Of Attraction

February 14, 2011

The book “The Secret” and the movie of the same name, literally initiated this whole movement towards wealth, health and happiness. People either liked the idea or were skeptical of it. Whether you like it or not the secret law of attraction philosophy has made a lasting impression on the personal development crowd and is here to stay. Here are a few quick tips to help you get what you want through using the law of attraction and go beyond the secret:

The first step to using the law of attraction effectively is to forget about it completely. Leave it alone for the time being so you don’t overtax your brain trying to bring it to you. Yes, I know that sounds a strange thing to do but it really is what you need to do. The reason is because you need to develop habits and routines that focus on your achieving your goal and you need to focus on those. Working on yourself first will draw the law of attraction to you like a magnet.

By dwelling on everything at once you are defeating the purpose that will bring you success. Thinking about it and doing it are two completely different things; you want to start doing. This is when things will start to line up in your favor, catapulting you to the next level of success. The law of attraction will be working for you without you even knowing it so don’t waste time worrying about it.

Secondly, be prepared to pay the price. Every goal you have requires a certain price to be paid. Your time, your money or your discipline are the payments that need to be made towards your goals. To achieve your goals you will have to pay the piper, so to speak, in order to attain it but should do so happily because you know you will be successful at it. There is no such thing as something for nothing in this world everything come at a price. If this does not work for you then be prepared to change the course to something you do want to have badly enough to work for it.

Yes, the secret does work, and yes it will help you achieve your dreams but don’t kid yourself, hard work dedication, commitment and effort are all required too.


Beyond The Secret Movie Preview

June 6, 2009

It is three years since the hit movie ‘The Secret’ took the world by storm and now the second instalment ‘Beyond The Secret’ is being released in just a few weeks time. This comes as great news to those people who struggled to really apply the secret and the law of attraction to their lives effectively as the new movie promises to fill in the blanks that were left in the original movie.

Since the original movie ‘The Secret’ stormed its way around the world it has consistently managed to keep itself in the public glare with many books, articles, tv shows, programs and so on being spun out to an ever expanding audience to soak up. However it has not all been plane sailing for the creators of ‘The Secret’ as it appears to have become a ‘love it’ or ‘hate it’ topic with criticism levelled at it from all directions.

Many argue that it gives false hope and even encourages day dreaming as there certainly wasn’t a great deal of emphasis placed on actually taking action in the original movie. This did appear to have been somewhat overlooked and made it slightly mis-leading for a few.

It will be interesting to see how the producers go about setting the record straight on a variety of issues in the follow up, ‘Beyond The Secret’. The ‘teachers’ featured in ‘Beyond The secret’ this time include: Les Brown the Emmy award-winner, Marcia Wieder, Bob Proctor, Paul Martinelli and a variety of motivational speakers, authors and visionaries who are looking to improve your life with their practical, common sense advice.

Again the movie will be mostly presented by Bob Proctor whose calm assured, authoritative manner is garaunteed to inform and educate without you even really realising it.

Just to whet your appetite further here are a couple of quotes from the presenters of the forthcoming release of Beyond The Secret:

Paul martinelli: “There was a very important step missing from ‘The Secret. “We let you in on the true secret to living the life you want in Beyond The Secret.”

Bob Proctor: “‘The Secret’ was a phenomenon, but it’s incomplete and confuses a lot of people. What we do is take them beyond that and teach people how to take control of their lives.”

The movie Beyond The Secret is due out on June the 23rd.

The Secret 3 Years On

June 2, 2009

So, it’s over three years on since the hit dvd ‘The Secret’ took the world by storm. Can you remember your first viewing of the movie? For many people it was a highly memorable occasion and for some, life changing. Many people finished watching ‘The Secret’ with renewed optimism and hope for life. Disappointingly for many however was their inability to transfer that intial burst of enthusiasm and energy into an actual real sustained assault on using the law of attraction in everyday life.

In fact the vast majority of people are unable to make the secret work in their favour, particularly after just a few goes trying to do so. If this sounds like you do not be dis-heartened or despondent. Rather like learning a new language, it is a gradual process, of course you wil make mistakes but that doesn’t mean you give-up, you just keep trying adjusting your approach until you get the results you are looking for.

If it’s not working for you right now then maybe it is that you just need some more practice. I realise that may sound a touch patronising, to say, ‘be positive’, ‘do not give up’ and so on, particularly when the state of the planet today leads us to think more of failures than successess, what with the state of the world economy, natural disasters and mindless acts of violence that we so often read about these days. Of course if your thoughts and feeling are reflecting these bad times then that is what you are going to draw towards you.

So what is the real answer? How can I make the secret, positive thinking and the law of attraction work for me even after all of this time? Well, here are a few tips as to how to do so:

1. Stop, stopping yourself from receiving. Yes that does sound a bit strange, I mean why would anyone purposefully stop themselves from receiving something they desired?

Have a little think on this scenario: a young child is asking for directions from a policeman: “Excuse me officer, would you mind giving me directions to xyz building?, please, would you mind, can you, can you, please, please could you, where is it, please…” What is happening here is that there is no shortage of asking but unless the child keeps quiet and allows the officer to respond then they are not going to get an answer, ever! Then they may very well get disheartened turn around, walk away and of course miss the answer that the officer was willing to give at any time!

So, you may well be asking for your desires but are you allowing the universe to communicate back with you and giving it a chance to repond to you. It may come in very subtle ways, a line in a poem, a comment from a friend, an idea in a book but if you are not willing and ready to listen then you won’t get any answer. For now don’t try too hard, simply be happy that you have put your desires out there.

2. Patience. The world around us seems like a miracle in itself at times. Huge towering mountains, ridiculously advanced technology and so on but none of those things came into existence overnight. The world has certain laws that all things must abide with. Using the law of attraction isn’t going to change them, it can only make them work in your favour and with you. So if there is something you desire, give it time to develop, don’t expect miracles overnight, simply be patient!

Being patient will enable you to enjoy the process of achieving your goals,attaining your desires and will also stop you from becoming demotivated and giving up due to frustration.

3. Do you part through educating yourself. Don’t view the secret and law of attraction as express delivery packages, as already said this is not the case but do think how you can accelerate the process. What action is it that you can be taking in order to attain positive outcomes. Often this will come in the form of education regarding what it is you want, maybe a particular book, course or whatever, but be proactive and do your part. Like an infant trying to take their first steps, you have to do it yourself but you will get there a lot quicker if you can observe someone else who has achieved success. Mix with those people who are there already and it will help you gain a more vivid picture of what it is you want and of what you have to do to get there.

So rather than using the law of attraction, positive thinking and the secret as some unique magic wand, treat it as a simple effective process that you have to go through in order to obtain your desires. Look at it that way and you will get there a good deal quicker.
