It’s Not About the Money

Money is sometimes seen as a master goal for some people. However, in fact to be wealthy and rich, we need to focus on the aspect of service and giving. The reason is that wealth is based on circulation of money, This is how people become wealthy and to add to this, we need to see in our mind first, before we see outwardly the result of our thoughts.


I know this may seem a little complex, but it is true. We really do need to make sure that we see the effects of our mind's eye first. In other words, as the bible says, we need to first conceive on our mind to achieve outwardly. All great things were ideas in people/s minds to begin with. Only then, did those ideas materialize or transfer to physical things and objects and systems we see today.

 

A classic example to illustrate this point is the aircraft. The Wright brothers were seen as cooks in their time, but today, we see planes flying all over the world, on a daily basis. Imagine not being near an airport?

 

I think you see my point.

Now, to move this idea forward, I have used the thinking of Bob Proctor on personal development and attraction, which has helped me to see that if I am just thinking about earning, it may well even be repelled. However, when I concentrate on writing well, and presenting great value products, I have found that I am able to help more clients, partners and other interested people to learn more about improving themselves. This translates into a very healthy return for me, and others as well. In other words, it's a win-win situation.


Set Yourself Up To Succeed- This is Much Better than Luck

I know that some people have the belief that luck plays a big part in some people's lives. It my deepest view that the only lucky people are those that make their own luck. As an example, winning the lottery is not a high return of chances- however, working to develop a business that is able to grow and create income, employment and more is about hard work, effort and dedication. This is just one example. 

I really do know, in fact, that 'lucky' people make their own luck.

 

 

In addition, by making a point of targeting, or aiming your product, service or talent in front of the right people, who want what you have, will infinitely increase your response rate of success. As an example, I point or aim this website at people who want to increase their chances of success, people who want to improve their success in life, through enhanced abilities to deal with the challenges that life present to them.  This is just another example of positioning yourself. 

To explain this further, if I aimed this site at kids who are looking for the latest toy to play with, I might find I didn't have a high take up rate. However, by aiming at people who desire to improve their success, their learning in personal development and so forth, I will have a much better rate of success.


I will be writing over the next month or so on the very aspect of getting out and about and being successful. It often requires a determined ability to sit down and get work done, or getting out there and meeting clients. I have found that my client base for building websites grew when I went out and met people, as well as doing the actual web design work.  I think you understand what you need to do.

 

Oh, and please, check back each day as there will be great updates to read through as well. I will also be uploading videos in the near future as well.

 

 


What is the 30 Day Challenge and How Completing it Can Lead You to Success in the Law of Attraction

What is the 30 Day Challenge and How Completing it Can Lead You to Success in the Law of Attraction
By Nic Masters

In 1956 the so-called Dean of Personal Development Earl Nightingale recorded "The Strangest Secret." In this record he claimed that "we become what we think about." Now, let us say that we accept his argument. But how do we control what we think about?

Apparently, anyone who accepts the argument that we become what we think about would want to think positive things all the time in order to attract them to their life. So what is the best way to develop such a level of thought control? Earl Nightingale proposed an interesting challenge for anyone who wants to master the power of directed thought. He called this challenge the 30 Day Challenge, and as you might guess from its title, it runs for 30 days. But what does it consist of?

The 30 Day Challenge is rather simple, in fact. It consists of every day for 30 days thinking only positive thoughts and not allowing any negative thoughts to occupy your mind. Now, negative thoughts will pop up into your mind no matter what you do, as the door to your mind is always open. But you need to be quick to dismiss them and parry them with a positive thought of your own. And you would need to do this for 30 consecutive days.

To everyone who thinks that this challenge is very easy, it should only be said that any time you lose the battle with a negative thought, you would need to start over again. This is like walking on a thin rope suspended in the air – when you fall, you have to start over. So then you are back on day 1 and start again to control your thoughts every day. And after several attempts you discover that your thought control capabilities are increasing.

Unfortunately, the Universe likes to challenge you, and you will find out that the longer your successful run with this challenge continues, the more difficulties you face, the more negativity is thrust at you, the more you have to deal with. Well, what can we say, this is life. But you have to remain positive, because remember, you become what you think about! There is no room for weaknesses and excuses – only results matter.

This exercise at focus and concentration will teach you the important ability to hold your goal clear in your sights and to keep going until you get it. And then you will eventually complete your 30 Day Challenge successfully. But you will somehow notice that you do not want to stop the challenge because you see the benefits it brings to your life. Then you will be ready to start making the Law of Attraction work for you. Enjoy studying and applying the Law of Attraction!

Personal Development for Smart People- An Introduction

Personal development can mean so much for different people.


I prefer to think of it as a form of management, and mind programming, in a positive way. Let me explain and expand on this briefly. Essentially, the saying goes that we are as we think. This is extremely true, and no more so for positive thinking than for negative thinking.

Putting this another way, of you think you can, then you can, Equally, if you think you can't, that is true as well. It all comes down to being able to think and picture, or visualize yourself as being the person you wish to be, or have the thing you desire to have. It goes further than that, however, in that it is also about you already thinking you have it. 

How does that work?


Well, quite simply, when you trick your subconscious into thinking you already have something, it is easier to then act to materialize it into existence. I know this is quite 'out there' for some people, but it has been proven time and time again, to be true. This concept is also explained in the books by Catherine Ponder like Open Your Mind to Receive – NEW & UPDATED . 

 

I have found that the above book explains the concepts of personal development in a wonderfully simple way, in that the concepts can be applied to almost anything. I also tie much of this material and thinking into the concepts, as taught by Bob Proctor in the secret Laws, as they are so powerful, when used on all these varying planes.
