The Key To Unlock Life’s Secrets – Happiness, Love, Health, Wealth!

July18

We all want something?

Ask yourself the question “If you had no limitations what so ever what would you do?

The next question “Are you doing it?” why not? Ok, before you start with all the excuses and reasons why you are not doing what you are doing, think about this quote from peak performance coach Tony Robbins “The only thing standing in way of you and your goals is the story you have to tell why you don’t have them”

If you have read any self help book or program I am sure you have heard how important it is to decide on exactly what you want and write them down. If you have seen the movie the secret or heard about the law of attraction you have probably tried manifesting your goals by saying affirmations, visualisation or a number of other techniques.

So why don’t you still have what you desire?

This is a common problem for many in fact you may have even taken a closer look at you belief system to discover what beliefs are holding you back and what new empower beliefs you can install to get you closer to your dreams.

For years I did all of this and I did get some great results however nothing like I read about. My life didn’t all of a sudden change 180 degrees and all the money didn’t start falling out of the sky like many of these gurus claim happened to them.

Now before I go any further I am defiantly not saying that all the affirmations, visualisation, goals setting, etc is a waste of time. In fact it is extremely important and you need to get clear as Joe Vitale would say and remove your limiting beliefs and install more empowering ones. However what many people miss or like I was too afraid to do was to take impulsive inspired action.

Think back to when you were a child, if you wanted to do something you did it. If you felt like playing with the cat you did, if you felt like throwing the cat out the window you did, if you got the impulse to put peanut butter on your hand and stick it in the DVD player you did.

As we get older we get conditioned by parents, teachers, siblings and almost everyone around us. Don’t do this don’t do that? And the problem is over time as you want to do something you begin to think is this ok? Instead of just doing it.

This is where the key to the lock really is. Once you have set your intentions and gotten clear on exactly what you want. Visualize and really get the feelings of having it and then ACT! Take action and take action NOW!

Take impulsive inspired action! How do you know it is inspired action, it will feel right, ask your body or heart. Your body will always tell y9ou the truth, if you feel comfort, ease, excitement, etc then it is the right action, even if it doesn’t seem logical. If your body or heart feels weak, not at ease, etc then it probably is not the right action. Have faith in yourself and expect your desires and dreams to come true and they will.

If you take impulsive inspired action you will have achieve your desires and dreams quicker than you ever thought possible.

With Love and Thanks

How You Can Think Differently To Be Wealthy

July9

Even though you have a strong desire or the drive to be wealthy, your mental game will influence your action.

Do you fear of ‘losing’, especially when it comes to money? Most may take risks but when it comes to money, they take absolutely take no chances with it.

(Sidebar: You can more free self improvement and self help articles, videos, etc at successandlife.com.)

This is the employee mentality where job security and a steady pay check each month is the norm.

Please be aware that I’m not criticizing — but making a general point.

What you need to do is to create your own winning environment. Take a closer look — if you’re afraid to lose, it’s probably not your fault because you’ve been taught that way from others and the environment unconsciously.

Money doesn’t grow on trees? Assume that they do. A tree needs water, sunlight and fertilizer to grow. If you want to grow your money, you also have to give it a suitable environment.

First, you have to stop talking money issues with people who have negative views about money. Hang around with people who are driven to make more money for themselves and not those who are just able to balance their income and expenses each month based on their pay check.

You could get some education on money matters. That is the key. Maybe you can learn about investing or take up a part time business like multi level marketing, home business or internet marketing. Maybe investment is not for you but if you look around you, there must be something out there that will help you make additional income. Maybe investing in real estates can be your cup of tea. I don’t know, it’s your life.

If you do find yourself in the right environment, are you willing to ‘work’ to be rich?

An environment is just part of the leverages you can get to achieve more. Remember, to be rich, you still have to work for it.

If that is uncomfortable to know, then you are just going to keep on dreaming. Sound harsh doesn’t it? Well, I’d rather be honest and become the ‘bad guy’ then ‘helping’ you to build a castle in the sky. You’ll only end up disappointed.

If you want proof, go check out the life stories of rich and famous people in your local bookstores. Do you really think Oprah Winfrey, Bill Gates or Donald Trump were born rich?

One tip is this — no matter how rich you become, you can always have that back but you can never rewind the time passed. So make your goal a journey, but not a destination. You will then be able to appreciate every detail of your journey, whether they are good or bad because ultimately, they all play a part in preparing you to achieve your goal. The bad will make you wiser and move you closer to success while the good ones, they’re just good. (smile)

You’ll appreciate those who laugh with you and those who support you through the hard times. You’ll have to achieve little goals to reach you ultimate ‘big’ goal but a lot of people don’t see these little goals because all they care about is the ‘big’ goal. But when it’s a journey, you’ll be able to stop and pick up the flowers along the way to smell.
