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.
