Some people call big achievements magic,
but all “miracles” are merely in line
with the power of the mind and quantum physics,
in fact all laws of the universe!
Isn’t that great? There is no mystery.
Magic: The power of apparently influencing events by using mysterious or supernatural forces (Oxford Dictionary).
We use the word “magic” as if it’s something unexplainable and beyond our ability.
Yet you are gifted as a supremely powerful creator, infinite and eternal … you are naturally already “supernatural”.
“People who say it can’t be done should not interrupt those who are doing it.” ~~ George Bernard Shaw
Would you like to see evidence of your supremely powerful creative abilities?
If yes, then come with me because it’s time we talked about FREE WILL.
Free will is a big deal…
… because you can choose to give yours away.
Think about that for a moment.
Most people give their FREE WILL away.
Have you? … Given yours away?
If yes, are you ready to re-embrace and exercise YOUR FREE WILL?
Answering YES moves you in a new direction and from here on some effort is required. You’ll be handsomely rewarded I assure you.
Your decision to say YES means you’re ready to embrace your supremely powerful creative abilities.
You can’t NOT create
This is easy because you’re creating all the time.
You’re ALREADY a natural-born creator.
Look at your results. Look at the state of your relationships, your income, your health, your career… look at everything in your life.
You created it all.
Whether or not you like your results, my point is a powerful creator did it. YOU did it.
The beauty here is this also means YOU CAN CHANGE IT ALL
Why I asked you about free will is because to use it, you need to make a conscious choice to come from within and DECIDE… ORIGINATE… CREATE what YOU want.
Not what your family wants and not what advertisers think you should have.
For the most part people create unconsciously on auto-pilot haphazardly influenced by news reports, media, social media, friends and family.
“The world is but a canvas to our imagination.” ~~ Henry David Thoreau
You have free will to create what you DON’T want.
You have free will to create what you DO want.
From today, ask yourself, “WHAT DO I TRULY WANT?”
Anything you can imagine having, you can live.
Anything you want, you can have.
If you’ve been gifted with such seemingly “magical” creative powers, why wouldn’t you use them?
Do you feel you’re not good enough, that no matter how hard you try you never quite measure up?
That’s you? Well, thank goodness for that!
You’re not perfect.
I’ve realized I wouldn’t want perfection because what then, would be the purpose of life?
There’s no-one quite like you and fortunately there never will be…
…so how could you EVER compare yourself to anyone else?
BUT the beautiful little secret is…
…you can always become BETTER!
All humans naturally seek expansion and greater freedom. The adventure of life TRULY BEGINS when you allow yourself that.
“We are all living in cages with the doors wide open.” ~~ George Lucas
Remember your FREE WILL?
This means you can “BE” whoever you want to be.
Free will means there’s never any judgement. Imagine what you’d achieve if you never judged yourself!
This means you don’t have to WAIT until you’re perfect before becoming better (and oh boy does the human race love a good reason to “wait”).
Choose to move forward NOW.
Tell yourself, “I am worth it and I’m becoming an even BETTER version of ME!”
Let’s look at nature
If nature’s not evolving what’s it doing? You got it, it’s dying.
And that’s the same with us.
What’s another word for evolving?
Yes, CREATING!
Unless you’re creating, you’re disintegrating. You’re a natural-born creator who right now isn’t even close to your true potential.
You’re more powerful and magnificent than you can imagine
I love that I am not even close to perfection because it’s been such a blast evolving this far. Believe me, I wasn’t born loving myself!!!
I’m so grateful to have discovered the truth about life because now I’m loving the adventure and living my dream. The pace picks up each day and the opportunities continue to grow.
It’s awesome! Please allow yourself to join me!!!
Did you know DISSATISFACTION is in fact a powerful, creative state?
Agreed, always be grateful for what you have and who you are, but always strive to be even BETTER.
You’re starting to see a theme here I can tell : )
Have you noticed how the things you PROCRASTINATE about are those exact things that would directly benefit and enrich you?
Why the hesitancy? Because you don’t think you’re good enough or worthy of having something wonderful.
If you’re still making sure everyone else is happy before you say YES…
… if you aren’t doing what’s right for you first and foremost, then you haven’t yet understood the reasons for loving yourself first.
Why did I ensure the first chapter in my book was about loving yourself?
Because everything stems from whether you think you’re worth the investment or not.
Once you’re willing to see you’re NOT SELFISH by loving yourself first, you’ll more easily start taking action on your dreams.
“It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are.” ~~ E.E. Cummings
BONUS:
You’ll stay younger and find things such as radiant health and being your ideal weight becoming a natural by-product.
Place the following sentence on your mirror and say it to yourself every day:
Say, “Listen here __(your name)__… you are precious, special and amazing… and I LOVE you.”
You’ll probably feel silly.
As ridiculous as it sounds it does take a little courage. Some people said they started crying when they said it.
I know you’re precious and I know you’re worth it!
In Part 1 of this two-part series we discussed proven success activities 1 – 5.
Ensure you DO ACTIVITY NUMBER ONE first, because only then will you be motivated to do the other activities.
KEEP REACHING FOR THE STARS
In short, ACTIVITY is the most potent way to get anything you want.
“By THOUGHT, the thing you want is brought to you;
by ACTION you receive it.”
~~ Wallace D. Wattles
But what do we mean by ACTIVITY? Read on to find out.
6. DO Fail Your Way to Success
“In order to succeed your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure.”
~~ Bill Cosby
Do you allow the fear of failure to lock you into endless PROCRASTINATION?
“We can either tiptoe through life and hope we get to death without being too badly bruised or we can live a full life, complete life achieving our goals and realizing our wildest dreams.” ~~ Bob Proctor
Failure is an interesting concept. When something goes “wrong” we think u-oh what does that mean? It merely means you’re on track moving into something better. All you MUST do is stay focused on what you want.
Do you think there are only two directions in life – failure OR success?
They even say “willingness” to fail isn’t enough, it’s essential to develop a “wantingness” to fail. They explain why the faster you fail and the bigger you fail, the faster you’ll achieve success.
When you embrace failure as a path to going bigger, you let go of all the angst and shame surrounding the word.
You’ll see failure as a fun adventure.
You’ll feel safe taking action.
You’ll choose to applaud every ACTION you take as a SUCCESS.
(whether or not the outcome is “seen” as success)
You only fail if you quit. Keep going and success is inevitable.
Of course, if things keep going wrong then it’s time to reassess your direction.
Everything is happening for your good. Hindsight will show you why things happened the way they did and that we’re too quick to judge!
How to fail your way to success:
1. If you’re too afraid to fail, you will never DO anything new. Keep looking for ways to ACT. Don’t wait… Do it. 2. Get more inspiration from Go For No.
(1Sourced from the book Go For No P. 29)
7. DO Choose a GREAT Attitude… and DO keep making it even better
How’s your attitude today?
“Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal. Nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude.” ~~ Thomas Jefferson
Why does a GREAT ATTITUDE help you get anything you want?
Attitude is VITAL !!! Without a great attitude, even the most incredible talents and education won’t get you there.
Have a look – many people with multiple degrees aren’t doing well.
It isNOT about education, degrees, talent.
1st comes your ATTITUDE
2nd comes your intelligence, education and talent
“It’s your attitude, not your aptitude that will determine your altitude.”
~~ Zig Ziglar
How to have a great attitude:
You have 100% control over your attitude. Expand your perspective (see Pt 9).
Thinking Into Results is the way I help motivate people into “bettering” their attitude. From GOOD TO GREATand from AWFUL TO AWESOME. In fact Thinking Into Results moves ALL these 10 success activities into your every day life.
8. DO More Than You’re Paid For
“It is one of the most beautiful compensations in life…that no man can sincerely try to help another without helping himself.”
~~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
If your first thought is to GET from a situation or a person, you’ve already lost. What can you GIVE?
Always GIVE your BEST no matter what… now and forever.
Why does DOING MORE than you’re paid for help you get anything you want?
You become what you think about. When your thoughts and actions are ABUNDANT they move you into even greater abundance.
You’ll always be generously rewarded by first being of service and by first GIVING your BEST. Read more about this in my book.
How to start doing more than you’re paid for:
Do what you love! I’m NOT saying live a life of endless grind doing what you hate. Forget that. I AM saying decide what you want (see Part 1) and meanwhile do your best work while staying focused on where you’re going. Your thoughts become things so if you always GIVE your best, you will always GET the best. You will move into what you want.
Do what you love. I love what I do SO much I’d happily do it free.
That’s true FREEDOM !!!
Look for ways you can do things BETTER and make a greater difference. You will be rewarded.
My book How to Get Anything You Want – Just Like That! gives you PERMISSION to do what you love and succeed. When you love doing something you’ll happily GIVE YOUR BEST – and the magnificence will come.
“Those who say it can’t be done ought to get out of the way of those doing it” ~~ George Bernard Shaw
Perspective is your point of view and there is ALWAYS another point of view in all situations.
Do you see INVITATION or LIMITATION?
Once you can see another viewpoint you cannot “unsee” it. Once the light is on you can’t turn it off! You are forever evolving.
Why does EXPANDING YOUR PERSPECTIVE help you get anything you want?
If you LOOK for a PROBLEM, you will FIND IT.
If you LOOK for an OPPORTUNITY, you will FIND IT.
Most people see situations only ONE way – in their limited way.
The greater your PERSPECTIVE,
the greater your CHOICES,
the greater your RESULTS.
I’ve said for years, “There’s always an answer” and I’ve always found it to be true.
What you LOOK for you will FIND.
How to expand your perspective:
1. PRETEND you can see several points of view.
I know that sounds strange but it works! Ask yourself, “If I were someone who could see two opportunities in this situation – what would they be?”
2. Dream big and you’ll be willing to see other points of view. So get that dream happening. See Part 1.
10. DO Engage Persistence
AND THE WAVES KEEP COMING
Are you persistent or do you give up?
“If you can’t fly then run, if you can’t run then walk, if you can’t walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward.” ~~ Martin Luther King Jr.
I’ve put this as #10 however LACK OF PERSISTENCE is the main thing causing people to fail. Because THEY QUIT.
As already mentioned, there’s no such thing as failure (Pt.6), because it which can be viewed as many things (use Perspective Pt.9). Feedback, learning, wisdom. But you WILL fail if you quit.
Most successful people experience some kind of setback on their journey. This is because life is fundamentally about “lessons” and a lesson is repeated until learned. Growth is why you’re here. It’s the journey that makes it fun, not just the destination.
Why does PERSISTENCE help you get anything you want?
It’s simple. Keep taking action and your success is inevitable.
Look at sport. If a basketball or soccer player didn’t keep shooting for the goal, they’d never score.
Most people give up way too easily.
PERSISTENCE will be your friend.
GROWTH your ultimate reward.
How to develop persistence:
1. Make an “advanced decision” to keep going no matter what. Just like you’d book a ticket on an airline and be there on the day no matter what.
If your mind plays tricks on you and encourages you to give up, you can say, “Well, fortunately I’ve made an advanced decision to do xyz every day no matter what.”
2. Look at Andrea and Richard’s Go for No program. This gives you perspective as well as staying power.
Study children. Notice it doesn’t matter how many times you say, “no” they don’t take it personally. They always ask one more time – just in case you’ve changed your mind.
And while you’re here…
The following will HELP YOU DO these 10 proven success activities every day.
1. DO take responsibility for your life. It’s a gift that you DO have control over how you think, feel and act. Use it!
2. DO stop conforming. The need to gain approval from others keeps most people from getting what they want. Become a powerful leader… of yourself! My book and Thinking Into Results show you how to overcome the old programming – and launch yourself into the FREEDOM you deserve.
3.DO hold your BIG EXCITING DREAM in your mind as you DO all these activities. All day, every day.
4. DO have fun. Life can be too serious. Actively look for ways to relax and laugh.

I’d love to hear about your dreams.
(and who decides it’s “failure” because really and truly there’s no such thing : )
Even if you said you’d failed I’d say, “Congratulations – you’re moving… many are stuck so far back in fear, they might never move! You’re already further ahead.”
Today I’m emphasizing the advantages of MOVING INTO ACTION, that even if you make mistakes you’re still further ahead.
I’m also giving you an easy technique, to get you moving.
“Courage is being scared to death – and saddling up anyway.”
~~ John Wayne
The great thing about MOVING is it’s easier to change direction.
Imagine a vehicle.
– How hard is it to change direction while standing still? Very hard.
– How hard is it to change direction while moving? Very easy.
Studies show that people who achieve what they want, do it through trial and error.
Yes, a mistake is an indicator of success
How successful can you be if you’re DOING NOTHING?
Today I have some words of wisdom from Dr Maxwell Maltz author of Psycho-Cybernetics and below you’ll see a great technique I use – that you can start using today.
I was intrigued when I first heard that a rocket arrives at its destination through a series of mistakes (it fails its way there?) and that our subconscious mind is a mechanism operating in a similar way.
“Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new.”
~~ Albert Einstein
According to Dr Maltz, our subconscious is in fact a “machine” we use.
We direct this machine using our conscious mind.
So, how is the mechanism in a rocket similar to your subconscious mind?
Have a look at this interesting list of similarities:
They are both goal-striving mechanisms.
They are both impersonal (your subconscious mind does not see things as good or bad it just goes ahead and creates your outside world according to your thinking – whether that serves you or not)
They must both be moving to get to their goal (sounds obvious yet most people don’t move)
They both reach their destination (goal) through trial and error.When they go forward, they make mistakes and correct their course. They are therefore further ahead.
In 
How’s your attitude today?
