Successful Thinking

This is an excellent article that will give you insight
into the mind of successful people...

How Successful People Think

Successful people think successful thoughts. They know that
entertaining thoughts of failure and defeat is a waste of
time. Successful people think of future possibilities, not
of past set backs.

Now, plenty of people think that it's easy for successful
people to be positive and think thoughts of success,
because they are successful. But the reason successful
people are successful is because they carry thoughts of
success.

I recently read part of an interesting interview with actor
Jim Carrey. The article reported that he said the
following:

When I wasn't doing anything in this town, I'd go up every
night, sit on Mulholland Drive, look out at the city,
stretch out my arms and say , "Everybody wants to work
with me. I'm a really good actor. I have all kinds of
great movie offers." I'd just repeat these things over and
over, literally convincing myself that I had a couple of
movies lined up. I'd drive down that hill, ready to take
the world on, going, "Movie offers are out there for me, I
just don't hear them yet."

It really doesn't matter what you think of Jim Carrey. The
point is, he is successful enough to earn around $20
million a picture.

I don't mean to imply that his affirmations every night on
Mulholland Drive were the only contributing factors to his
being successful. I really don't know what else he did.
But I do know that successful people think successful
thoughts.

In many motivational books and courses, you will read over
and over that the way you change your life is by changing
your thinking. Many people instead think that once they
get the success that they desire, then will be able to be
positive and think thoughts of success. They really think
that the reason successful people are positive is because
they are successful. Just the opposite is true.

We are all a product of our thoughts.

Is it a paradox?. Some might think of it as foolish mind
games. How can you think thoughts of achieving your
desires, if you have no idea of how to get there? Some may
say, "You're just kidding yourself." Others would say,
"It's not reality; it's not true; you're just lying to
yourself."

Well, consider this. Have you ever planned for a vacation?
Were you lying to yourself? Have you ever looked at
brochures for your vacation destination? Have you ever
been excited and pictured yourself relaxing and enjoying
yourself at your vacation spot? Have you ever told anyone
about it?

I remember the first time we went to Hawaii. I was so
excited that we were finally going! I had many exciting
thoughts about going, even months before we left. I could
picture myself there, I could see and hear the ocean in my
mind, and I just couldn't wait to get there!

Planning your success is a lot like planning a vacation.
You get clear on where you desire to go. You pick a date.
You start making plans.

And something you would never say in planning a vacation to
Hawaii, would be, "Oh, I'll never go to Hawaii." On the
contrary, you would be saying, "I am going to Hawaii."

Why not do the same thing with your goals and the desires
you have? Why not picture and see in your mind your
desired destination? Why not absolutely expect for those
things to happen in your life?

Too often, people get talked out of their dreams and goals
because they just can't figure out how it can possibly
happen. You know something? The "how" will take care of
itself, if you will get the picture clear and stay focused
on it. Your dreams and goals will come into reality as
you keep your mind locked into the desires that you have.

Change your life by changing your thinking. And then,
continually repeat those successful thoughts in your mind.

You Owe it to Yourself - Think Big!

You owe it not just to yourself - but also to the world - to THINK BIG.

The Law of Attraction as explained in The Secret, and even in much greater detail in The Science of Getting Rich Program, will teach you whatever it is that you may want or need in your life.

Money on its own is neither good nor bad.

It is a means to an end. Money is a medium of exchange that is used by all people in a civilized world for product or services. It is used to represent VALUE.

See, it’s just not possible to live a really complete or successful life unless you are rich. In order to unfold the soul and to develop talent, you must have many things to use, and you cannot have these things unless you have money to buy them with.

"What we have to get straight in our heads is that owning the money doesn’t mean ANYTHING.

It’s the DOING with money that develops us - it’s not in the having. And when you have more, you’re enabled to DO more."

---Jack Canfield, The Secret

Express Your Goals in Terms of a Benefit

The subconscious mind, which is a major contributor in utilizing the Law of Attraction to obtain your goals, works with benefits, not features.

For example, a $500,000 per year income is a feature, not a benefit. The same goal expressed as a benefit would be something like "I live in a beautiful mansion which is easily affordable." In other words, express your benefit focused goals in terms of the things you really want.

Once you have decided upon your goals, write them down in a way you can picture them the most clearly. Describe your swimming pool surrounded by lush fragrant gardens, or the long driveway which winds past the huge iron gates leading to your 5 car garage. Get the picture?

The more detail you add to your image of your benefit, the stronger the attraction forces will be.

You then need to spend about 10 minutes, 3 times per day and just imagine yourself enjoying your benefit focused goal. It takes some time to train your different mental systems to work on the attraction process. This step is where most people drop the "attraction ball" and then complain this stuff doesn't work.

Keep the faith, focus your imagination 3 times each day on your goals and you will be well on your way to using the Law of Attraction to build your wealth.

To your success,

Attracting Wealth

Attracting wealth into your life is something anyone can do. Using the Law of Attraction, we are able to manifest the people, tools and anything else we need to create the wealthy lifestyle we deserve.

Wealth is more than just money. It's the combination of health, relationships and financial freedom that are the definition of true wealth.

The good news is that once you attract wealth, it is much easier to attract both the relationships and the health, as you will then have the ability to concentrate on building better relations with your chosen person, as well as having the finances to be able to obtain the finest medical care, or fitness training.

Over the next few months, I will bring you more tips and information on how to use attraction to increase your wealth.

To get a jump on the next phase of the attraction process, put together a list of how your life will look with wealth on your side. It should be expressed in terms such as "I am able to travel to where ever I choose, anytime I choose to do so. I live in the house of my dreams and drive a beautiful vehicle.

You should avoid trying to express your wealthy situation in terms like "I make a million dollars a year" and I'll explain why in the next post.

To your success!
