What does it mean when a person says, “Something is missing in my life”?

Galaxy2We tend to complicate life, when it’s actually quite simple.

“Something is missing” means a few things (read on for those) but solving it starts with ONE thing…

We LOVE goals. We are goal seeking beings. To be truly happy and fulfilled, it’s important we have a goal.

We’ve lost touch with ourselves, we’ve forgotten what we need to make us happy and keep us happy.

Without a goal, we are lost.
Without a goal we have no destination.
Without a goal, we feel empty and unfulfilled.

A goal changes it all. Seriously, filling the hole can be that simple.

Now, when I say “goal” it’s not just any goal…

…we want an OUTRAGEOUS FANTASY!

I hope that got your attention because we’ve been taught “fantasy” is just a fairytale, something you can never have… I’m here to tell you, you CAN have the FANTASY!!!

Do you think “flying” for the Wright Brothers was a fantasy? You bet it was. I’m sure you’ll agree it was an outrageous fantasy!

“I am looking for a lot of men who have an infinite capacity

to not know what can’t be done.”

~~Henry Ford

It’s my belief there’s no goal, vision or desire too big for you to live. If you ask me, I’ll say, “YES, you can have that!” (and then I’ll help you get it)

And in addition – to make it more fun – it’s best if you have NO idea HOW you’ll achieve this thing you want.

Most people want to be sure they know HOW to achieve their goal before starting out. No, please please please don’t do that. That will only hold you back – and leave you feeling like something is missing.

Forget the how. The fun is in finding out HOW and that’s the plan. We want fun.

Do you know anyone who is often irritable, angry, anxious and overworked? Possible someone who has things going wrong, finds fault with others and/or may even be ill?

These are all signs of a person without a worthwhile goal.

It makes sense. If someone is suppressing their inner urge to go for life and achieve something worthwhile, they will most likely feel irritable and possibly ill.

By contrast, when we have an awesome goal, one that engages us wholeheartedly and makes our heart sing – what time do we have for fault-finding or for illness?

Now, why do I suggest making your goal something HUGE and outrageous?

(even better if others think it’s impossible, something you’re crazy to even consider : )

Why?
Because there’s a second layer to this – the purpose of any worthwhile goal is to create and GROW.

One of our primary purposes on Earth is to GROW. And, even more fabulously, growth turns into wisdom.

“Rather than exist each day in some dull, boring habitual manner, move into action on a big idea.

Everyone is on the brink of possibility. Your responsibility is to discover what that possibility is for you.”

~~ Bob Proctor

In the same way that the FUN is in finding out how you’ll achieve your goal, your GROWTH will also come from finding out HOW to achieve your goal.

Fun…growth…wisdom all brought together. A great goal will do it!

Did you know, it’s not about achieving the goal?

It isn’t about what you acquire.

It’s about who you become as you grow. Y

ou grow intoyou become the person who achieves big things.
(which means you achieve the goal… and more!)

When you’re growing you feel truly alive, vibrant and happy. You’re living on purpose.

“The science of neuroplasticity has found strong evidence as to why new knowledge and experiences keep us healthy and happy.

It seems that new mental activities – preferably ones we enjoy – keep our brain younger by maintaining our ability to pay attention and to learn new information. Endlessly repeating the same activities causes us to lose those abilities.

There also seems to be a link between the state of our happiness and how many new neurons we produce. They apparently help us to see the world in new and different ways, and to recognize when we are having new experiences.

 If our world looks the same every day, it’s depressing.

~~ Janet Poole – Excerpt from “How to Get Anything You Want – Just Like That!”

If someone has no goal, they WILL feel something is missing.

Why?

They are not growing.

To be happy and fulfilled we must be GROWING!

PS. If you’re someone who has no idea what you want, but you know it’s something – please understand that is completely normal, and that there is a way through that!

PPS. When you aren’t growing you’re also stifling your natural urge to create and to use your own natural abilities and talents – those same talents that stay hidden in most people their whole life.

And remember, most people think being “creative” is something an artist does. No. Creating is anything that is new for you, that’s all.

Go for it and never hold back!

YOU’RE OUT OF THIS WORLD !!!

Your mind is the most powerful and creative tool known to man.

What I say in my book is that quantum physicists have discovered you control energy and turn it into matter. YOU DECIDE what matter it will become — you do that with your thoughts.

You do choose your reality. How  awesome.

But, are you brave enough to go for what you truly want? Most people are not.

Learn today how you get the courage to allow your true power.

“Don’t think you’re on the right road just because it’s a well-beaten path.”

~~ Author unknown

(This is the last article #5 in the series Not Achieving Your Goal? Check out these 5 Life-changing Reasons. See the 4 other reasons at the end of this article.)

REASON #5

What if You’re Denying the Power of Your Mind

In reason #1 of this series I suggested creating a worthwhile goal – one that’s fun, outrageous, exciting – one that will cause you to grow and evolve.

When you understand the power of your mind, you’ll understand why you can create an awesome goal and have no idea HOW you’ll achieve it.

However, such goals take you out of your comfort zone which is scary enough, but ALSO they often require you to have the courage to break free from the herd mentality and become a confident leader of your own life.

What does leaving behind the herd mentality mean?

  • You no longer conform to the hidden rules of society
  • You leave behind the need for acceptance and approval
  • You risk disapproval from others (initially)
  • You risk losing certain people in your life (which allows new inspiring people to enter)
  • You may be called crazy (initially)
  • You may be called selfish (initially)
  • You’ll start making your own decisions – most people battle with this one
  • You’ll stop asking permission – yay!
  • You’ll shine brighter, you’ll get noticed — this freaks many people who feel it’s safer to stay hidden or risk rejection
  • You start living and speaking your truth — showing others who you really are. Most people consider this too dangerous.
  • You need faith to jump and build your wings on the way!

The backlash

We all know when we’re perceived as “different” there’s a potential for backlash, so anytime you choose to move on from mainstream thinking, that’s what you risk. It’s usually self-inflicted but it seems to be coming from others (another story for another time).

Most people wear the mask of success — do you?

Even if you have a burning desire to do something special in life, you feel you can’t so you abandon your dream and pretend to be someone else. You toe the line by putting on a mask, by appearing successful, fun-loving and easy-going.

You stay ultra busy to distract yourself from your real feelings, your real desires.

Deal with it or it’ll catch up with you

But your feelings inside do not go away – they eventually catch up with you.

If you don’t deal with it you may turn to alcohol, plastic surgery, spending on fancy clothes, furniture, gamble or even drugs, which destroy brain cells (and when you no longer have a fully functioning brain it makes changing and healing a tough job).

Or you distract yourself with Facebook, YouTube, email, television or video games.

I’m sure all this sounds familiar. All these options are often the path of least resistance, but they take you further way from happiness. Each time you need more to get your original reward or “high”.

This is an addiction — to things outside of you.

It becomes unsustainable. Emptiness, loneliness, frustration, anger and bitterness start to multiply.

The truth is real joy only comes from the inside & from being the real you.

“None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free.”

~~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Go For It.jpg1WHAT CAN YOU DO?

Allow…

… THE REAL YOU to shine through. Allow yourself to sit still for five minutes this week.

Ask yourself, “How do I really feel?”

Do this…

  • Start studying the power of the mind
  • Start discovering the truth about real happiness and how to create it

Hint: happiness is the result of growing, evolving – best done by creating that outrageous goal and remembering you can only make you happy – it comes from inside not from outside

  • Start learning how to exercise your free will. You’ll learn this helps everyone.

“You don’t get harmony when everybody sings the same note.”

~~ Doug Floyd

  • Start using repetition by using this knowledge to reprogram your subconscious mind and raise your frequency. Whatever is in your subconscious mind is law and creates your results. See Reason #3 for more on repetition.

1. Initially you’ll be planting a seed of free will in your subconscious mind.

2. With every embrace and repetition of the knowledge, the seed grows and forms stronger roots.

3. This changes your entire vibration and you’ll start behaving differently, you’ll naturally become ready to take action to live your dream, and you’ll care less about what others think.

And what’s next?

Knowledge and repetition SET YOU UP PERFECTLY for creating what you want in your life.

Thinking into Results gives you the knowledge and the repetition to raise your frequency to create what you want.

Statistics show your results skyrocket with support and encouragement. Close the gap between what you’ve learned (what you know and are tempted to use) and your behavior (what you do) so you can get the results you want and deserve.

Thinking into Results is a Bob Proctor program that ensures you start living your dream today.

It’s a culmination of Bob’s 50 years — yes, 50 years — in the personal growth industry.

Leave behind the herd mentality and gain the freedom to be who you really are. Liberate yourself to live the spectacular life you were meant for.

Even better, Thinking into Results helps you create that outrageous goal we talked about in Reason #1. This PROVES to you the incredible power of your mind.

“It’s weird not to be weird.”

~~ John Lennon

P.S. Have you ever considered the definition of the word “weird”?

It’s something supernatural (if you’re human, that’s you : )

So Remember…

Allow the power of your mind and save yourself a whole lot of time and effort!

And Also Remember…

If you’re not achieving your goal use this checklist:

  • Reason #3 — Do you only read personal development books once?
  • Reason #5 – Are you brave enough to use the power of your mind?
    • Allow the power of your mind – yours happens to be supremely powerful, use it!!!

What Do You See in The Mirror – Is This The Reason You’re Not Achieving Your Goal?

CHANGE FROM THE INSIDE OUT
CHANGE FROM THE INSIDE OUT

Your confidence will soar as you start to see you CAN have what you want.

You can do it.

Today… 2 more reasons you’re not achieving your goal.

REASON #3

Reading That Liberating Book Only Once

“Whatever we plant in our subconscious mind and nourish with repetition and emotion will one day become a reality.”

~~ Earl Nightingale

Remember, it’s highly probable you have entrenched HABITS (programming) to follow orders, put everyone else first and put your dream last !

And therefore, your subconscious programming will be keeping your life PREDICTABLE and safe.

It’s up to you to break out and exercise your free will.

But first, so we’re clear — what’s the definition of a HABIT?

A habit is something you do BEFORE YOU EVEN THINK about it. Scary or superb?

Which means, unless your current habits and beliefs endorse getting what you want … FORGET IT.

WHAT CAN YOU DO?

1. Read personal development books & listen to CDs several times (repetition)

If you’re wanting to leave behind mediocrity and DO what you love — you’ll need to read the information over and over (and over) if you want to start living it.

The idea you’re drawn to is seeking expression — in you.

What you read is not a coincidence, but reading it once is not enough.

“Constant repetition carries conviction.”

~~ Robert Collier (1885-1950)

 

2. Take notes as you read (more repetition)

When you note new ideas you get more repetition. You’ll embrace the ideas and start living them.

Do this simple technique I’ve done for years:

  • Fold a clean sheet of paper in half and place it in the book
  • Have a pen or pencil handy
  • Write out those tempting ideas and note the page number
  • Store it in the book

You’ll form a quick reference to all that inspiration and I often refer to my genius notes. Take more notes when you re-read the book.

3. Create affirmations from these new ideas, and say them slowly every morning and before sleep.

Do this for 30 days straight — at least.

Allow the words of the affirmation to fill you with excitement — if they don’t, create new ones. They must inspire you.

How does repetition work?

Repetition replaces those old limiting habits and beliefs in your subconscious mind e.g. the ones that say, “you can’t.”

Tried “positive thinking” and find it doesn’t work? It’s because the beliefs and habits in your subconscious mind are too strong — they dominate.

Deep down most people have programming that blocks them from breaking free — often because of what others may say or that they may fail.

Do you hold back, conform and stay safe?

The secret is the more often you see a tempting, liberating idea, the more likely you’ll get the courage to apply it.

“Repetition of the same thought or physical action develops into a habit which, repeated frequently enough, becomes an automatic reflex.”

~~ Norman Vincent Peale (1898 – 1993)

Repetition drives you to action.

With repetition you more fully grasp concepts such as the power of YOUR thought and you CAN have what you want, which sparks your imagination. You get excited as you start seeing this is possible.

It does work…

When readers write to me overjoyed about living life on their own terms and their out-of-the-blue magic, I always ask how many times they’ve read my book.

Their answer is almost always that they’ve read it twice, three times and are continuing to do so.

No coincidence.

So Remember…

Repetition will reprogram your subconscious mind with glorious possibilities.

REASON #4

How Strong is Your Opinion of Yourself?

STRONG ENOUGH?
STRONG ENOUGH?

Your life is a reflection of your self image

I invite you to take a look around.

What do you see? It’s interesting when you know your life is a reflection of what you think of yourself.

“A strong, positive self-image is the best possible preparation for success in life.”

~~Dr. Joyce Brothers (Psychologist & television personality b. 1927)

What we see can ALWAYS be improved.

You’re always evolving.

WHAT CAN YOU DO?
