Successful Living

By Shane Hunte

Successful living is exactly what the phrase implies and that is living as if you are already a success. It is amazing how this simple little technique can work wonders in your life as it magnetically pulls your desires seemingly out of mid air to become your reality.

Yes - as you live your success in each and every step you take and as you believe without a doubt that you already have what you want - it will come true. But it is important that you believe it will. You don't need to concentrate on anything other than to discipline your belief system.

You will suddenly be struck by an idea that will bring about what you desire because you held your success deep within your heart. You will then act on this idea and after a while it will seem like if your desire magically appeared from nowhere but it really didn't. You had the answer all along but just couldn't see it because you didn't believe it.

Let's take this apart so you can see clearly why what you perceive as true is what you believe and what you believe is what comes to past. It all starts with what's in your head and this will either shape or shatter your destiny. How many time have you said "I'm going to fail" then think about the few times you really had no doubt that you will succeed at whatever it was that you wanted to do. It can be something simple or huge, the point is you made up your mind to either fail or succeed.

You set the outcome before you even started to act upon whatever it was. Whenever you have a thought - you act according to the feelings resulting from it. The outcome is the result of your thoughts and actions combined. You can really think your way into a successful life.

Successful living happens to those who realize that words are powerful and you can speak abundance and prosperity or death and destruction into existence.

You will hold in your mind the curses or blessings that you speak out of your mouth and because of this you will act upon them in a negative or positive way. This means the outcome will either be negative or positive.

The phrase "be careful what you wish for" still holds true up to this day because you can have all your wishes come true if only you believe that they will. Imagine being able to say "I will have the house of my dreams" and within a year you are able to buy it cash.

Is this realistic to you or is that a bunch of nonsense? I used to think it was until I said I'll give it a try. The funny thing is I failed the first couple of time because of my belief system.

It was corrupted by traditional thinking much like yours. I simply didn't believe that any normal human being can manifest his desires into reality. I couldn't see how a man could believe he had something that wasn't there. Nor did he know how he will achieve it.

But I was determined and I had to let all the negative thoughts go. I had to believe that I could create that web business. Although it isn't finished I know i thought it into existence because it was started and that was only a few months ago. This is the beauty of thoughts and believing in them.

I hope you see how you need to think in order to really achieve successful living. Just remember that it is all in your head and if you believe it is true you will manifest your desires into reality.

A Positive Attitude - An Essential For A Happy, Successful Life

By Karen Wheeler Hall

"Rule your mind, or it will rule you." These words are as true today as they were when the Roman poet Horace wrote them over 2000 years ago.

Do you want to reduce stress and anxiety?

Do you want more fulfillment in life?

Do you wish you were happier?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, the place to start is in the mind. Whatever you want from life, you have to THINK it before you can DO it.

Do you realize the vast amount of power hidden in your mind? Anything is possible if you keep a positive attitude and use all the strength of your willpower to make it happen.

But most people fail to tap into that source of unlimited power in the mind. We get caught up in the day-to-day grind and settle for what life brings us.

It takes a strong commitment and constant practice to strengthen our willpower and keep our thoughts positive, but the results are worth it.

You may be asking yourself, "OK, so what are these great results?" Here are just a few of the benefits of developing the power of your mind:

● reduced stress and anxiety

● inner peace and contentment

● abundant happiness

● more creativity

● the power to accomplish whatever you want in life.

A happy, positive mental outlook is vital to creating the life you want. So why wait any longer to enjoy the happiness you deserve? Start today to develop your mental power and watch how your life changes for the better!

3 Sides To Your Story of Success

By Michael Twomey

Have you ever heard that there are three sides to every story? Everyone has their own point of view from which they experience life. Now you can use this powerful concept to inspire yourself to greater happiness and success!

Well, in this article I want to show you a simple way that you can harness this powerful technique right away to become more successful in your life.

As with any interaction and especially with disagreements there are different viewpoints and each person feels that they are right. Ego filters out facts and self interest shades things in a certain way and this is just a fact of life. Or is it? Many people think this is a fact and other people find it sad.

Yet now you can use this "sad fact" to your advantage.

By taking this concept and allowing you to see things from three points of view and choosing the best one. I will explain more but first I just wanted to remind you how important a journal can be for your progress and in helping you maintain what you have worked so hard for and earned.

Memory can be a fickle thing and we might wish to remember things different from how they really happened. Some people remember things in a more flattering light while others remember it as having been worse than it really was. So by having an experience and recording it as quickly and accurately as possible you will discover some amazing things.

And by using this basic human tendency we will get the best of all worlds.

STEPS.

1. Start by recording a journal.

2. At the end of the day take a few minutes and focus on a fairly neutral experience and write it down as accurately as you can.

3. Now take this same experience and write a worst case scenario. Exaggerate the bad and not so good details and blow them way out of proportion. It is a good sign if you find yourself starting to smile or laugh at how ridiculous the experience is sounding.

4. Now take this same experience and write a best case scenario. What could you have done or said or felt to make things better? What resources or skills or qualities or talents would have helped you the most?

5. Now list these qualities, actions, beliefs, etc. and rewrite the experience as if you already had these skills, talents, beliefs and notice how much better you feel.

6. Now mentally rehearse this best case scenario with you saying and doing all the right things in the right way that makes the experience so much better. This will start to become more who you are and of course I have people practice this in a deeper trance state to really make this concept even more powerful. So start practicing this 3 sides to every story concept in this way and notice your progress.

Now instead of writing a part 2 of this article I will share more with you right now because I will be very busy over the next few weeks.

Most people want to keep whatever success they already have and this can also help with this. So when and if you feel your success slipping from your grasp you can go back to where you first noticed making progress or enjoying your life more and review your accurate notes.

This can help you get back into the correct state and you can recall a few tips or actions that helped you the most. Also you may find that most of your progress occurred when you went to a certain place or at a certain time or with a certain person and how these things all helped your state.

I do believe that state is one of the most important elements in any type of success.

Michael Twomey

P.s. True to my word I have been keeping a journal which mostly relates to some new things I have been training in and studying and incorporating into my practice. It is an invaluable tool and it just takes a few minutes a day to help lock in your progress or help you determine what needs the most work for you to improve and live the kind of life you want to have.
