A while ago I was reading the audio transcripts of a call between Simon Hodgkinson & Jeremy Gislason entitled The Mindset Call.


Simon revealed a powerful secret that helped him to become the rich and famous Internet marketer that he is today. “You have to believe in your own mind that you've already done what you want to do.” I know that it sounds as if this guy is nuts, but it's worked for him and it can definitely work for you.


You've got to see yourself as a successful person who has already achieved your goal – whatever that may be – and you've got to convince your subconscious mind that you've already accomplished the goal you want to accomplish.


Note that I said subconscious mind. The conscious mind already knows that you haven't reached your goal,but the subconscious mind can't tell the difference between what we vividly imagine and what is actually real.


The subconscious mind will start to move you in the direction of that goal automatically. You'll see opportunities you never saw before. You may get a hunch that you need to take a particular action, call a particular person etc. It's important to act on those feelings when they occur.


You need to visualize yourself as having achieved the goal already. Bring into play as many senses as you can. What will it feel, smell, taste and sound like? Feel the same emotions of ecstasy and joy you would feel if you had really achieved the goal. This simple exercise works wonders if done twice a day, once in the morning on awakening and again just before going to bed at night.


During the day you need to act like the person you want to become. For instance if you want to become wealthy than act and play the part of a wealthy person. How would you walk if you were wealthy? How would you talk if you were wealthy? How would you conduct yourself if you were wealthy? Then conduct yourself accordingly.


An additional tool that will help speed up the process is to write down (in detail and in the present tense) the goal you want to achieve, for example “I am making $1000 a month by January 31st 2007” or 'I weigh 54 kg by March 31st 2007' The goals need to be specific, measurable and have a deadline.


Now post these goals where you will see them often and read them out loud at least twice a day. Before bed and upon awakening are good times to read them out loud.
Don't dismiss this technique. It is a powerful method of re-programming the subconscious mind for lasting success.

The book that launched a million millionares

Think & Grow Rich is said to be the most widely read self-development book in history. First published in 1937 it has sold over 7 million copies and 60 years later it continues to be a best-seller worldwide. It has been dubbed as 'the book that launched a million millionaires.'


This book should be an essential part of every high school and college curriculum throughout the world. Your education isn't complete without reading this epic book.


For years I resisted reading Think & Grow Rich because the title seemed like a whole lot of wishful thinking to me. I mean you can't just think and grow rich, can you? Oh yes, you can. But not mere 'thinking' in the traditional sense. What we're talking about here is a whole new mindset, a paradigm shift, if you will.

The book teaches 13 essential steps to riches - the steps you need to take if you want to become wealthy and successful.
The entire philosophy of the book can be summed up in one powerful line " Whatever your mind can conceive and believe it can achieve."


If you haven't read Think and Grow Rich yet, then I urge you to do so now. Don't put it off for another minute. Think and Grow Rich is in the public domain and a search on Google for 'free Think and Grow Rich e-book' will yield dozens of web sites where you download the book at no cost.


Read it, make notes and most of all apply the 13 principles contained in it and prepare to be amazed at the results.


The World's best-selling success book just got better - Announcing 'The New Think & Grow Rich' - updated for the new millenium...And you can get 2 chapters free + listen to a 36 minute audio excerpt from the book + an exclusive interview with the world's foremost 'Think and Grow Rich' expert, Ted Ciuba.

A Winners education.What you should have been taught at school.

How much do you remember about what you were taught in school? If you're like most people, you remember little of the irrelevant facts stuffed into your unwilling young mind by overzealous teachers.


Schools were created during the Industrial Revolution to prepare young people to work in factories. They were essentially a training ground for conformity and mediocrity and of course a source of cheap labor.


Times have changed dramatically. We now longer live in the Industrial Revolution, we now live in the Information Age. But schools have remained the same...stuffing kids heads with obscure facts that have no relevance to their lives whatsoever. After 12 years in this institution of learning, kids are ill-prepared to face the challenges of the real world.


I propose a new type of school, one where children are taught things that will actually benefit them later on in life. Courses like Marriage 101, Wealth Creation 102, Communication skills 103, Budgeting and Financial Planning 104, Positive Thinking 105 and so on would be the norm. And with textbooks like Awaken the Giant Within, Think and Grow Rich, The One Minute Millionaire and Chicken Soup for the Soul. And how about teachers the likes of Anthony Robbins, John De Lemme, Robert Allen and Mark Victor Hansen.

Oh how I wish I had attended a school like that. Don't you?

It's not too late, you know. There's still time to learn all that you wish you had learned in school. But nobody is going to do it for you. You have to grab the bull by the horns and start the process of self-education independently. The only teacher watching over your shoulder will be yourself. And the best part is you get to choose exactly what you want to learn, how you want to learn it (by reading a book, listening to a CD, watching a video, attending a seminar, participating in a tele-class etc). And you get to set your own pace. No exams to write, no pressure at all, just the joy of learning what enriches your life and mind an speaks to your heart and soul.


No self-education is complete without reading the best-selling self-improvement book in history....Think and Grow Rich. Now this amazing book has been updated for the new millennium....The New Think and Grow Rich. And you can get to sample it for free + get a gift worth $97 when you do.

Time is the very essence of life and the most precious commodity we have. Unlike other precious commodities we cannot store it or accumulate it. Each precious minute that we are allotted every day at sunrise must be spent before dawn the next day.

Our failure or success depends on how we spend those precious moments. Spending those moments wisely leads to a life well lived, and failure to do so leads to the pain of regret.

Here are 4 ways in which you can befriend Father Time:-
1. Set priorities and stick to them. List your top 5 -7 priorities in order of their importance. Spend some time each day working on those priorities before anything else.


2. To succeed you need to work on those things in the present that have the greatest impact on your future.
Things like exercise, drawing up a business plan or writing an article, spending some quality time with your spouse or kids are all examples of activities that will yield rewards now and in the future as well.

Contrast that to watching TV or hanging out with your buddies at the bar. These activities only provide temporary pleasure with no return on the investment of time in the future.


3. Make a commitment to improve those aspects of your life that are the most important to you. If, for example, you are an internet marketer, then learn the skills of copy writing, list building, Search Engine Optimization etc. If you are a parent then read books or listen to audio programs that will teach you the skills you need in order to parent effectively.

Keep learning and improving in each and every area of your life. Constant and Never Ending Improvement should be your motto.


4. Keep in mind that time cannot be saved, it can only be relocated from activities of lower importance to activities of higher importance. Rather then think of spending time, think of investing time. Before you begin the day ask yourself this question:- "How can I invest the next 24 hours that lie ahead so that I can enjoy the moment and reap the rewards of a moment well invested in the future."

Self Improvement: How To Capitalize On The Self-Improvement Industry : Motivation : Goal-Setting : Personal Development : Leadership : Success

The self-help industry is booming like never before. The sad part of it is that even though more self-improvement products are sold now than at any other time in the history of humanity, there seems to be little outward improvement in the condition of people's lives.

Why is that? Perhaps the answer is not to be found in newer and better technologies, but in looking back into the past.
Could this old book, almost lost in the deep, dark vaults of history contain the secret that can free you to achieve ultimate success. Find out by clicking here.

BE, DO, HAVE.

'It is unwise to aim directly at prosperity, to make it the one object of life, to reach out greedy for it. To do this is to ultimately defeat ourself. But rather aim at self-perfection, make useful and unselfish service the object of your life, and ever reach out hands of faith towards the supreme and unalterable good.'

You have to BE, in order to DO, so that you can HAVE.

James Allen - The Path of Prosperity.

The law of the harvest.

"The law 'Whatsoever a man sows so shall he also reap' is described in flaming letters upon the portals of eternity, and none can cheat it, none can escape it. He who puts his hand in the fire must suffer the burning until such time as it has worked itself out, and neither curses nor prayers can avail to alter it."

It is not only our actions that have consequences, but our thoughts as well. What we think about on a regular and consistent basis is what we become. What we think about is also what we attract into our lives. If we think thoughts of happiness, abundance and peace then that is what we will have. On the other hand if we sow seeds of discontent, hatred, resentment and lack, then that is what we will reap.

This life law is called The Law of the Harvest and is as unchangeable as the law of gravity. We would all do well to remember that 'What you sow so shall you reap' at every moment in our daily lives.

This extract is from The Path of Prosperity Intensive Training Course where you can learn what is stopping you from living the life of your dreams ....and most importantly how to change it.
James Allen- The Path of Prosperity.

Become what you wish to have.

'Do you wish for kindness? Be kind.
Do you ask for truth? Be true.
What you give of yourself you find;
your world is a reflex (reflection) of you.'

James Allen - The Path of Prosperity

Simply put give what you want more of. This applies to all areas of life. If you want more money, then give money, if you want love then give love. Whatever you give out to the universe will come back to you multiplied manifold.

Have you ever wondered why some people are so successful and others -maybe you - are not? What is responsible for their success? Is it luck? Intelligence? Being in the right place at the right time? Good fortune? Education?

'We think in secret and it comes to pass, Environment is our looking glass.'

'We think in secret and it comes to pass,
Environment is our looking glass.'

Thoughts are not as hidden as we automatically assume they are. If you want to know what a person thinks all you have to do is take a look at their lives. Our lives are an accurate reflection of our thoughts. If you are struggling financially, then you can bet that you are not thinking thoughts of abundance and prosperity, but thoughts of lack, ingratitude, fear and failure.

The wisdom of James Allen

'It is not enough to pray to God to remove the evil; you must find out why it is there, and what lesson it has for you.'

By 'evil' James Allen meant the trials and tribulations of life that we must all face. What lesson does the hardship/problem/challenge in your life hold for you? Ask yourself 'What has this come to teach me?'

Quotes to motivate & inspire you.

Below are some of my favorite quotes by The Dali Lama

"Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional."
Think about it. Everyone of us will have to go through some painful experience at some time in our lives. There is no way to escape that inevitability. Pain can come in many forms, such as the death of a loved one, financial hardships, health problems, war, famine, divorce, rejection and so on. But we don't have to suffer. We can feel the pain momentarily, mourn what we lost, learn the lessons that the pain has come to teach us and move on wiser and more compassionate. Yet there are people who remain stuck in the past, bound to some tragic event that they refuse to let go of. I think that's what the Dali Lama meant when he said that suffering is optional. Many of us are guilty of replaying an unfortunate incident over and over in our minds long after it has happened. You wouldn't watch a movie you hate over and over again, would you? So why do you keep replaying mental horror movies in your mind?

The Dali Lama is listed as expert no 4 in Top 101 Experts

Are you a player or a spectator in the game of life?

Become an active participant in your life. Passive people typically get poor results, whilst action-oriented people get MASSIVE results. In the final analysis, results are what matter. Money is a result. Happiness is a result. Fulfillment is a result. You can produce these results in your life.
