Riches Do Not Respond To Wishes

Riches do not respond to wishes. They respond only to definite plans, backed by definite desires, through constant PERSISTENCE.

The basis of persistence is will power.

You have at your mercy a mind that will follow your orders. You should not mistake yourself as your mind, as you are far more than that. Any order that you give your mind can be achieved, yet the result will rely upon your ability to apply repetition and have a burning desire.

Desire and persistence when mixed together can produce a powerful force so potent that nothing can prevent your attainment of your goals.

Far too many men and women are eager to quit at the first sign of trouble and have no persistence or desire to overcome their hurdles. If these people had of just persisted for a little while longer then they would have seen that the fruits that they were looking for would have starred at them in the face.

Those few people who do have the burning desire to achieve greatness along with the persistence and decision that nothing will stop them in their calling are the big achievers of our time.

Do you think that Edison would have discovered that carbon is one of the best materials to use in the incandescent light bulb if he had of given up after testing the first material? No! Instead of being disheartened he tried hundreds of different materials in various shapes and sizes without any success what-so-ever. But he persisted on and with his desire he eventually stumbled across the winning formula.

Henry Ford insisted that the 6-cylinder engine could be produced despite being constantly told by his engineers that is was ‘impossible’. A few years later after persisting with his decision, his engineers finally made the breakthrough and created the 6-cylinder engine that was ‘impossible’ to build. Persistence pays off, big time!

Spasmodic, or occasional effort to apply the rules will be of no value to you. To get RESULTS, you must apply all of the rules until their application becomes a fixed habit with you. In no other way can you develop the necessary “money consciousness.”

A little effort here or there just isn’t enough to cut it. Once you’ve developed a BURNING DESIRE for anything at all, you must make the DECISION that you will do whatever it is that is necessary to bring about the physical manifestation. When you mix this potent formula with PERSISTENCE, then and only then will you have knocked down every brick wall that could possibly stand in your way.

Ask any great achiever how they got to where they are today. Most will tell you that they had a strong passion (DESIRE) to achieve what they’ve achieved. They will also go on to tell you that they would have done anything to achieve it (DECISION) and that they would work long hours until they achieved what they wanted (PERSISTENCE).

I’m a firm believer that to get what you what out of life, it doesn’t need to be a struggle. Working hard and working for long hours may sound unappealing, but let me remind you that when you’re working towards something that you are so passionate about, the reality of time will stop.

If you are truly working towards something that you have a burning desire to achieve then everything around the subject of it will feel like joy and fun. Work is completely the wrong word because it implies that it is hard. Sure enough – you will need to put the hours in, but those hours won’t be unenjoyable if you are truly in harmony with what you want.

5 Reasons Why The Law Of Attraction Doesn’t Work

I firmly believe that the Law of Attraction is at work in every single moment however there are times when it does not always work the way we would like it to. Why is that? After all, if the Law of Attraction is universal, why does it only work part of the time?

The answer to that is found in the minds of the people who are attempting to use it to their own benefit. The only thing standing between you and success is yourself. If the mind is clogged with so much negative energy that it cannot release the positive vibes which will attract the positive energies of the universe, the Law of Attraction will not be able to help them. They must first rid themselves of all of these negative vibes and start fresh.

As with any skill it takes time, effort and devotion to truly master the use of the law of attraction in your life. There are a number of factors which can cause the law to behave in ways which you may not have expected, almost all of which fall back on the user’s ability to follow the guidelines required to find success.

Here’s a list of five common mistakes people tend to make:

1) Believing that positive thinking is enough to attract what you want

Positive thinking occurs only on the conscious level; this is why positive thinking is not enough to put into effect the law of attraction. It is necessary for belief to enter the subconscious as well.

The mind is always operating on two levels, the subconscious and the conscious. The conscious mind is being given hundreds of tidbits of information at any given time from all five senses. This is an incredible amount of information to process, even from such an advanced tool as the human brain. The mind would slowly go crazy if it had to deal with all of that information all of the time.

Instead, the mind developed the conscious mind, which serves as a filter to review the information sent to it by the senses and retain anything that it deems important. Anything that it does not deem important is passed along to the subconscious. It is the subconscious which will retain this information, acting as the guardian of repressed memories until such time as those memories are needed again.

It has long been held that the subconscious has a direct effect on the actions and beliefs of the conscious mind, a topic which will be discussed in greater detail a bit later on, but for now it is sufficient to say that if the conscious mind is attempting to think positive thoughts while the subconscious retains a negative energy the two will cancel each other out, and the desired effect will not be achieved.

2) Becoming impatient

The universe works at its own speed; remember, every action carries with it an equal and opposite reaction. It is essential that the other environmental conditions be right in order for an event to occur just as it should.

This means that the law of attraction may take weeks, months or even years to effect a fruitful reaction to the desires of a single individual. People of today’s society are spoiled; they want what they want and they want it now. A new theory that does not produce instant results is not going to be received with a great deal of favor.

In addition to that, disbelieving in the Law of Attraction because it does not meet your established timetables (after all, it never says precisely when all of these wonderful rewards will be reaped, only that they will) is a direct violation of the guidelines required to see positive results in and of itself. You were merely testing the law in order to see if it will produce results; if you were confident in its ability to effect the desired results you would be content to sit and wait, knowing that what you want most will come to you in time.

On the other hand, the fact that you are not indicates that you do not have confidence in its ability to bring about the desired results. This means that somewhere in your being is a small kernel of negative energy, sufficient to throw a monkey wrench into the whole process of positive attraction. Remember, if you are vibrating negative energy you will attract negative energy back onto yourself.

3) Determining ahead of time how and when you will attract what you want

Let the universe work! It is possible to become so focused on what you think is going to happen that you manage to totally miss the event when it occurs if it does not occur in precisely the manner you pictured it would.

The universe will choose its own time and place for all thins to occur, and these events may take place through rather unusual means. By predetermining exactly how you will receive the rewards which you are seeking you are taking away the choice from the hands of nature, which direct the ebb and flow of the energies of life, and setting yourself up for a hard fall.

By taking the ability to choose upon yourself you are essentially saying that you do not have faith in the ability of the law of attraction to effect the desired results in time; again, by setting your own timeline for events to occur you will eventually come to disbelieve in the law of attraction (after all, it didn’t do what it was supposed to, did it?), which will cause your subconscious to radiate the negative energy which will drive the positive energy away.

4) Allowing your emotions to be led by external evidence

In order to reap the full benefits of the Law of Attraction you need to believe that what you see now is a result of what you have been attracting to this point; again, it is essential that you realize that what has occurred in your life to this date and what will happen later on is determined by you. Whatever successes or failures you have experienced have been the result of the energies that your mind and body have released out into the universe.

It is very easy to look at the events of your life and think, “I certainly didn’t want that to happen; the Law of Attraction must be untrue because I would never wish for something so awful.” What you have to realize is that it is not always what your conscious mind wishes for that influences what your subconscious mind is projecting.

Which leads us to the fifth most common mistake…

5) Not removing limiting beliefs

There are many occasions in which people fall into a self defeating cycle because they are unable to control the thoughts and attitudes of their subconscious. A common argument against the Law of Attraction is, “Why is there so much suffering in the world if people have the ability to determine the events of their life?” No, these people have not chosen a life of starvation and servitude; however, due to their history many of them do not truly believe that they have any choice.

This disbelief in their ability to change their circumstances because “it is the way that it’s always been” means that they will continue to live this way. Their subconscious continues to project that disbelief and negative energy out into the universe, drawing back negative energy which will cause them to continue to live in this self destructive cycle of events.

It is those who have dared to dream, and believe in the possibilities presented by these dreams, who have effected the greatest changes in the world. If Henry Ford had not truly believed that man could ride in a car, do you think that the Model T could have been invented?

The removal of limiting beliefs such as these is absolutely vital to the ability of the Law of Attraction to work as it is intended to. If you truly feel that the Law of Attraction is not working for you, take a moment to consider the things that you are wishing for. Do you truly believe that these events can take place, or are you merely making idle wishes? Do you secretly believe that you have a “one in a million” chance of any of those things actually taking place for one thing or another?

In order to project the positive vibes which are necessary to draw the energies of the universe to you it is essential that you be one hundred percent confidant in your ability to effect a change and willing to believe that all of the events occurring up to that point have been a necessary prerequisite to bringing these events to be.

Your Opinion Matters Most

If you are too easily influenced by the opinions of others, you will have no DESIRE of your own.

Often throughout life you will have set backs and receive negative comments when working towards your goals.

“You can’t do that”
“No one will even listen to your ideas”
“That’s just stupid!”
“You should give up now before you’re humiliated”

These are just a few of the comments that can be detrimental when working towards creating the life you wish to live. Remember, everyone has an opinion but NO ONE is right or wrong with what they say.

Give no attention to what comments you receive along the way and stay firm to your decisions that you make. The only people you should take advice from are those members of your mastermind group.

Although it can seem hard to ignore the comments of your loved ones and close friends, they are not you and cannot influence your life. Only you can do that – which is why giving their opinions attention and focus is worthless and destructive to your own progress.

Keep your plans and ideas to yourself whilst working with the principles from Think and Grow Rich. Do not disclose your ideas and do not share your goals with anyone.

From a Law of Attraction perspective, not sharing your goals could be weakening your manifestation power. By speaking about your goals and talking about them often you are magnetically attracting them into your experience. However, when you’re surrounded by people who do not support your goals and have in the past shown traits of discouragement then you should keep your goals close to your heart and not share them to those who could influence the way you feel around those goals.

Keep your eyes and ears wide open – and your mouth CLOSED – if you wish to acquire the habit of prompt DECISION.

Napoleon recommends that in order to remind yourself to follow this advice you should copy the following statement and place it in large letters where you will see it daily:

TELL THE WORLD WHAT YOU INTEND TO DO, BUT FIRST SHOW IT

I think this is a brilliant statement and one that we should all remember. By removing your egos thirst for telling people how great its going to be once you’ve achieved your said desires and you begin to move beyond that insignificant way of thinking you will be in a much better place to get on with creating your desires so you can then show them to the world once they’ve been achieved.

Before long your friends and family will notice the change within you and will want to know everything you do so that they can experience a piece of it for themselves. Teaching by example is the best way to teach any subject matter.

Making Decisions That Bring You Riches

God seems to throw Himself on the side of the individual who knows exactly what he wants, if he is determined to get JUST THAT!

Napoleon Hill pointed out that procrastination is the opposite of decision. Towards the end of Think and Grow Rich, he suggests that you read the book over again and study it. As this is a fairly large book, I can see how most would have been put off by this request and therefore not followed through with it.

Here is something I have observed. If you follow through with everything Napoleon Hill writes in his book and make the decision to perform all of the tasks and requests then there is no way you will not reach the riches you desire. I know this because I followed through with everything just as suggested and received massive breakthroughs. If it wasn’t for Think and Grow Rich – I don’t think I would have ever created this blog and therefore you wouldn’t be reading these words.

A popular self-development forum that I frequent often revealed some interesting facts. Those who re-read Think and Grow Rich and applied everything and studied the book just as suggested – made massive breakthroughs in their lives. Whereas those who did nothing and read the book only once, remained where they were and no major breakthroughs ever occurred.

What type of a person are you? Are you the sort of person who will do what it takes to obtain the riches you desire? Or are you the type of person who wants it all on a silver platter without having to do any of the work?

Decision making is part of our every day life. You will end up making thousands of decisions every day. Some small, and some not so small.

Analysis of several hundred people who had accumulated fortunes well beyond the million dollar mark, disclosed the fact that every one of them had the habit of REACHING DECISIONS PROMPTLY, and of changing these decisions SLOWLY, if, and when they were changed. People who fail to accumulate money, without exception, have the habit of reaching decisions, IF AT ALL, very slowly, and of changing these decisions quickly and often.

As the quotation above points out, making the habit of reach decisions promptly is one of the habits of high achievers, which is the focus of today’s discussion.

So how can you begin to make decisions quickly?

Here are a couple of suggestions;

• Make an affirmation card and place it in many obvious places where you will see it often. Write on the card ‘I make decisions quickly and easily’.
• Think about it often. The more you can think about making your decisions quickly the more chance you will have of remembering to do so when faced with a decision.
• Make a decision around something important right now. There is no time like the present, so have a think about something that may have been lingering on and bothering you. Make a decision about it once and for all and stick to your decision.

And lastly… make your own decisions. Never let anyone else influence your decisions unless they are a part of your mastermind group. Remember, everyone has an opinion, but the only opinion that truly matters is your own – regardless of the position that the other person has – it is your opinion that counts!

2 Ways To Be Happy After Receiving Bad News

Unwanted experiences are present in everybody’s lives. The trick to dealing with them is how you interpret them and how you behave once you’ve received the news.

Pretend for a moment that good and bad do not exist and all there is… is “just is”. Your ego is the one determining whether something is good or bad, so you need to release that for the moment. Once you’ve taken your emotional response away from the situation you can begin to see the event as just an occurrence. It’s neither good nor bad – it just is.

Good is in the eye of the beholder, as is bad.

Here are a couple of tips to help you get into alignment after hearing some bad news.

First decide whether you can stop thinking about it or not. If you can stop thinking about the problem or news that has happened… then do so! Start thinking about something enjoyable and that makes you happy. Take your mind and attention away from the situation. Do not talk about it, do not visit friends who will talk about it, do not expose yourself to more of it.

If you cannot stop thinking about it, then you need to find good things around the subject that you can focus upon instead. Gradually you’ll be working your way up your emotional scale and out of the bad news and into good news again.

Let’s look at an example.

Bad scenario: You’ve just been rear-ended by another car and you’re unhappy. You cannot stop thinking about it, so you know you should spend time focusing on the positive aspects of the scenario.

You should begin by determining where you currently are. Grab a sheet of paper and write down what you are currently thinking and feeling.

“I’m frustrated because that was my brand new car and he is a stupid driver and shouldn’t be on the road”

Now – from this starting point we need to start thinking and feeling about the positive aspects of the situation.

“Well at least no one was seriously injured”
“It’s just a car at the end of the day”
“It could have been a lot worse than it was”
“I can probably get my car fixed quite quickly”
“The car still works!”
“It gave me the opportunity to see more of my kids today”

You see, by applying just a little effort you can easily find the positive aspects in ANY situation. And I do mean ANY situation. You’ve just got to try it and stay focused for just a little bit.

Realistically you should be able to work yourself out of any bad circumstance in under an hour and start to feel good about whatever it is that’s troubling you.

Next time you think you’re in a bad situation – try it!

The Speed of Manifestation

When someone has just been introduced to the Law of Attraction one of the first questions they will have is, “how long does it take to work?”. Any good teacher will tell you that this is entirely dependent on you and how much expectancy you have of your desires becoming a reality.

It is always advisable that you start off by manifesting some small items to provide evidence that this invisible force does in fact exist and is most definitely yielding things to you.

Fact is, the Law of Attraction is constantly working and it will never cease to operate.

When I say you should start small and manifest smaller items, what I mean by this is set your intention to manifest something you have very little resistance to. Some good examples of this would be; car parking spaces, cups of coffee or seeing feathers.

The reason that these are good items to manifest is because you’ve had all of these brought to you before. You’ve had good car parking spaces before. You’ve had someone bring you a cup of coffee and you’ve been out and seen feathers lying around on the floor before.

The resistance factor is minimal. If you set your intention to receive a cup of coffee and you spend just a little time thinking about it. When someone who wouldn’t normally offer you a morning coffee, does offer you one – you can easily make the correlation that the Law of Attraction has been at work and has yielded that to you. These smaller manifestations are awesome for confidence building and you can never manifest enough of them!

In fact, I sometimes enjoy my smaller manifestations more than bigger or high-valued items.

Every morning I go for a walk in my local area. I’ve found a perfect route that I like to follow; there are plenty of flowers and lots of interesting things to see along the way. It’s fairly peaceful and very rarely do you see cars on my route.

However to get there I have to cross a busy road, and coming back I have to cross the same road again. Now every morning I put my manifesting muscles to good work and as I am walking towards this busy road I say to myself “I am going to cross this road without stopping, there will be no traffic in my way”. I also visualise myself walking across this road without a car insight. Previously I’ve had this happen on many busy roads where there has been a perfect gap in traffic so that I can cross without having to run or stop on the island in the middle – so my resistance to this happening is very low.

95% of the time, when I come to this “usually” busy road, there is always that perfect gap in traffic where I can just walk without stopping and cross the road successfully. I do this every morning, and every morning I am delighted with the results!

Although this manifestation may be considered to be a small manifestation, I get immense pleasure from it. It makes me feel more in charge and in control of what happens in my experience. It reconfirms that I am a deliberate creator and that I can manifest anything, no matter how big or small. It proves to me that the universe loves me and will yield anything I ask for.

The speed of this manifestation is literally within minutes of me thinking about it. You do not need to spend days in advance visualizing what you want. In fact the universe hears your desires without words or images; the universe hears your feelings (vibration) and yields to you exactly what you’ve been asking for with your vibration.

Just remember, the universe cannot yield to you something that you say you want, but do not feel like you have it. If you expect a miracle – you will manifest one.

The Law of Attraction Action

There are two types of action when using the Law of Attraction to manifest your dreams and desires. The first type of action is physical action and the second is non-physical action.

Physical Action
This type of action is what is most commonly used to get something that you want. Let’s say for example, you are out of milk and require some more. So you pop down to your local supermarket and pick up some more milk. This is physical action. You made a decision that the supermarket was the best place to buy your milk from, so you went cash in hand down there to buy some more.

Let’s look at another example. You have set yourself a goal of creating $100,000 by the end of the year. You’re currently only used to making $25,000 per year so this is quite a big jump. However you’ve heard from friends that it is all about taking action. But not just any kind of action – oh no! – You must take “massive” action!

So you go out and work yourself to the ground doing everything you can think of to make this money. Doors aren’t opening where you want them to, people aren’t helping you the way you would like and the money isn’t coming in as quick as you expected it!

The physical action is the action that you take in the physical world to receive dreams and desires. On its own, physical action is next to useless. However when combined with non-physical action it becomes inspired action.

Non-physical Action
This is the behind the scenes work that most do not realise needs to be done. This action is commonly referred to as mind-work. It’s the stuff you do to get into resonance with what you’ve been wanting.

Non-physical action is usually pretending, dreaming and thinking. Similar to physical action, if non-physical action is used on its own then it is entirely useless. You cannot sit in a cave and meditate all day and expect a bag of gold to fall out of the sky.

You can however use non-physical action to become so in harmony with your goals, dreams and desires that when you go out into the physical world you will be inspired to take physical action that will result in your desires becoming a reality.

Here are some examples of non-physical action:
• Meditating
• Visualising
• Appreciating
• Dreaming

Conclusion
Both types of action must be implemented in order to manifest your desires. I recommend that you start your manifestation process by doing both. Take the action in the world that you think is necessary and feels right for you to do, whilst also take non-physical action and dream your desires into being.

As you move along, you’ll begin to discover that the universe is always yielding to you new inspirations or ideas on how to move forward. This is the inspired action I mentioned earlier. Inspired action feels brilliant, it feels amazing and it feels right!

The only way of describing inspired action is; you will just know it’s the right thing to do.

Follow that instinctive reaction of wanting to follow the inspiration and go with the flow. Have as much fun as you can along the journey! Enjoy the experience and enjoy all of the action.

If something doesn’t feel like it’s the right thing to do, then do not do it. Your feelings are the best indication of whether you are moving towards something that will bring you more joy or not.

If it feels good then choose it!

Success Conscious

Do you have a success conscious or failure conscious?

First let’s briefly talk about the difference between the two. Someone with a success conscious is one who has prepared to receive. They expect the riches from life, and skim across life plucking only the very best life has to offer them.

Someone with a failure conscious never get to experience good things. They know they fail at everything they touch. They are Mr. Joe Bloggs, Fred Ordinary and Frank Plain. They don’t win the lottery, they don’t like their work and they don’t enjoy helping others.

I once heard a story about two farmers who were both desperately in need of rain for their crops. One of the farmers went and prepared his crops to receive rain, while the other farmer waited to see if it would rain before expelling any “unnecessary” effort preparing his crops.

Which farmer do you think received the rain?

If you prepare yourself to receive, then the universe will yield to you everything you could ever dream for. Already where you stand today you expect so many things that serve you and so you receive them.

You expect fresh, clean running water – and so you receive it.
You expect unlimited supplies of food – and so you receive it.
You expect transportation – and so you receive it.
You expect a means to create income – and so you receive it.

There are so many people and places on this planet who do not expect these basics. You and I can call them basics because we are so used to having them, where some parts of the world are not.

You can prepare yourself to receive success by first deciding on what it is you really want. What is it that makes your heart sing? What is it that would make you smile, dance and cheer with glee? Next prepare your fields to receive it.

What would the person who has already got this thing you are wanting behave like? What would they do different to how you are currently behaving?

Would they dress better?
Would they be more giving with money?
Would they smile all day long?
Would they not have a care in the world?

You must behave, act and become that person in order for you to receive your desires. The universe only yields to you that which you are in vibrational harmony with. That means that you must become a match to your desire. You must vibrate on a similar level to what you want and it is then that the universe yields it all to you.
