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?
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)
Janet Poole is the best-selling author of “How to Get Anything You Want – Just Like That!” and Facilitator of Bob Proctor’s transformational “Thinking into Results” program.
Janet works with individuals and businesses to achieve extra-ordinary results in every corner of their life. Contact Janet to get the results YOU WANT in your life.
It is a comprehensive book which you immediately get a feel is the author Janet Poole’s work of art. You can feel her passion, dedication and commitment to sharing what she teaches in the book. You know when a book just feels like a good friend rather than an academic study that you have to become a student for.
Its comprehensiveness is brilliant if you are looking to get immersed in spiritual and personal development. It felt like you could go from 0-60 very easily and speedily with this book by your side. It covers a wide range of subjects and areas for you to work on. I felt that it would be one of those books you would have as a compendium for creating a deeper relationship with yourself and understanding how to live more joyously while creating consciously.
It’s the start of a new year so right now there’s a lot of talk about goals out there.
Step 1:
– Have a goal – Have it written down.
Most people wish for things in a vague way, without intention and wonder why they never achieve them.
Even if you already have a goal, our next step is to assess whether your goal is worthwhile or not.
(see reasons #2, 3, 4 & 5 at the end of this article)
Reason #1:
If your goal isn’t worthwhile, it may not be worth the effort
Why?
Achieving an “unworthy goal”, leaves you dissatisfied, unfulfilled and unhappy. And you won’t know why. It may be because it’s a goal you’ve achieved before, your goal may have been too easy for you or it may even have been someone else’s goal (oops!).
Some people see goal setting as boring. If you’re choosing what I call “ho-hum goals” I’d agree with you.
You see, if it’s a ho-hum goal, it is boring and your results are likely to be as well.
A ho-hum goal is not inspiring.
You’re designed to create something ~~FABULOUS and NEW~~… for you!
Kerry says, “Janet believes that if you truly understand how life works, there’s no limit to what you can accomplish and to how much you can help others.
Instead of doing what others want and expect from you, it’s far better to start living for yourself and to start creating the life that you want and deserve. There’s really no other way to be happy.”

What Readers Are Saying:
“I read at least 1 or more chapters in the morning before I get up and before going to sleep. It has inspired me so much to follow my dreams and let things go.
I just wanted to let you know how grateful I am to you for the difference you have made in my life already. I am so excited about my new adventure thanks to you.”
~~ Kylie Evans, Mt Tamborine, QLD
“I felt it touched upon many aspects of life, and didn’t try to preach to me or to provide me with a strict regimen of instruction for bettering myself. It makes you think about self-awareness and I really loved the inspirational quotes that were at the beginning of each chapter.
The book is easy to read, hard to put down at times, in fact.”
The best way to achieve that is to keep growing, evolving.
Enter relationships! They are one of the main ways we grow. Especially of course when they’re challenging us.
The point being:
A challenging relationship is not a “problem”, it can be AN ASSET.
Have a brilliant time at your family gatherings this year by taking the higher road. Take those disputes and use them to release hidden issues (which dictate your life!) Releasing them opens you to exciting new opportunities.
These 7 steps wrap-up parts 1 & 2, which built the understanding behind disputes. Now you have what you need to use a dispute as a valuable opportunity to transform your life. If you’re someone who wants to become greater follow the 7 steps and look back on the issue as a blessing.
So now, you have the power to create what you want. It’s your choice. You can either have:
a heavy life filled with revenge & justice
OR
a free & light-hearted life with anything you want
It may require humility but I promise you, you’ll always win.
(NOTE: This does not involve working this out with the other person – this is ALL ABOUT YOU – as usual : -)
Use this article for any disagreement or where you’re not getting along.
“To truly laugh, you must be able to take your pain and play with it.” ~~ Charlie Chaplin
Whether you do anything about this or not depends on how much this is hurting you.
Enough pain and you’ll act.
This is part 3 of a 3-part series: Coming Through Family Disputes Peacefully and More Empowered.
Steps 1 – 4 may be a challenge. Do them so you can CELEBRATE in steps 5 – 7!
1. KNOWLEDGE FREES
1. Create the intention to learn about yourself.
The natural state of your Spirit is to learn, to discover – especially about YOU!
Try to put revenge, anger, disappointment aside for these 7 steps. If it seems impossible to learn anything, try saying one of the following sentences to at least get you onto the page:
“Is there any way I could be open to the possibility there is something important to learn about myself – even though I’m still angry about what happened?”
“I choose to learn something profound about me today.”
“What if being open to learning about my role in this, could really change my life?”
“Is there a chance my life could become more meaningful by understanding the message in this situation?”
Another idea: Pretend you’re observing someone else with this issue – learn by watching.
“Growth begins when we start to accept our own weakness.”
~~ Jean Vanier (Canadian Catholic philosopher Founder of L’Arche – group homes for people with developmental disabilities b. 1928)
2. LOVE YOURSELF THE WAY YOU ARE
2. Take a stance of ‘no blame’.
No right and wrong. Not you, not them – even if it’s just for this exercise.
You may not want to let the other person off the hook because they hurt you, but once you understand the reason for disputes your fear disappears and nothing can hurt you.
Because…
…when you know you create every part of your life, how can anyone hurt you?
1: Others Control You if You Try to Prove Them Wrong
2: Others Control You if You Blame Them for What Happened
In fact once you know this, learning more about you becomes more important and exciting than seeking revenge and justice.
3. GAIN PEARLS OF WISDOM
3. Create and contemplate the following questions.
Do this key step to get valuable insights out-of-the blue.
Idea: Print this page, so you can have these questions with you when you have time such as in traffic, on a train, bus or cooking etc. Make it easy for you to take action.
These give you the message about using this dispute to grow. It may not be obvious how these questions help, but do it and you’ll see.
“What bugs me about this person?”
“Could this be my message?”
“How does this person make me feel?”
“What does that message tell me about myself?”
“What message is this person giving me?”
“How are they treating me?”
“Is it possible their treatment of me is how I expect to be treated?”
“Is it possible their treatment of me is how I treat others?”
“If I was open to learning about myself today, what would that learning be?”
“How can I evolve from this experience: how can I grow?”
“We do not see things as they are, but as we are ourselves.”
~~ Henry M. Tomlinson (British writer and journalist 1873 – 1958)
4. USE THE OPPORTUNITY TO TRANSFORM
4. Use those answers to discover any inadequacies in you.
It’s in your nature to change… to transform.
When someone annoys us it’s usually highlighting an inadequacy. It means it’s time to MOVE ON from the inadequacy.
Did the questions in point#3 uncover feelings of:
inferiority
bitterness
guilt
anxiety
self-pity
jealousy
disappointment in yourself
or
arrogance
stubbornness
or they made you feel
afraid, fearful – maybe you feel you need to toe the line & keep others happy to avoid being abandoned or excluded.
This is why that insensitive – annoying – hurtful or frightening person can be an ASSET.
This is not that easy – we’re often in denial about our feelings because you may see yourself as weak. But that’s not true. It takes strength to see ourselves for who we are. No-one is perfect and if you hide the issue, it’s still there.
Here’s a good question:
“Is it worth hiding these issues and holding yourself back for all eternity?”
“The person with insight enough to admit his limitations comes nearest to perfection.”
~~ Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (German writer, artist & politician 1749 – 1832)
Let’s take one of the questions from above as an example:
“Is it possible their treatment of me is how I expect to be treated?”
Perhaps you decided DISRESPECT is the issue. What could that possibly mean for you?
Contemplate, drill down further with more questions and you may come up with a NEED FOR APPROVAL. Keep drilling down every time you discover something – what is behind the issue. Then, contemplate ways you can start giving yourself whatever you’re lacking e.g. respect and approval. Remember you can only give yourself what you need – others cannot do it for you. Once you give it to yourself, you’ll see it reflected in your relationship with others. Step 6 continues this process.
“A man who knows he is a fool, is not a great fool.”
~~ Zhuangzi (Influential Chinese philosopher who lived around 4th century BCE)
Remember the ripple effects and rewards from recognizing and changing just one inadequacy or limitation can be phenomenal.

(see the end of this article for what you get in the free download)
5. LET’S LIBERATE YOU!
5. Acknowledge what you’ve discovered – this is fabulous!
Let’s liberate you.
Really own it. By taking responsibility for who you are, you will naturally start to heal and move into the wonderful.
“Champions take responsibility. When the ball is coming over the net, you can be sure I want the ball.”
~~ Billie Jean King (American tennis player – Won 12 Grand Slam singles tennis titles b. 1943)
6. NOW FOR SOME FUN! Decide what you want.
6. CHOOSE WHAT YOU WANT
How do you want to be treated?
Use this information to move in a new direction. You have infinite potentials. Just say the word. Often we “wish” but never really state with intention what we want.
Choose powerful thoughts to describe how you want to be treated. Go for anything you want such as respect, happiness, confidence or a relationship, a material item etc. For example:
“I feel safe, confident and secure in myself.”
“I have fulfilling, loving relationships.”
“I know how to treat myself with respect.”
“I now get treated with respect.”
“I’m grateful I love myself enough not to need anyone’s approval.”
“I love myself the way I am.”
“I see the happy caring side of (insert their name)”.
As you see these thoughts in your mind, you are creating them in reality.
Place these on cards next to your bed. Say them aloud at night and as you awake. Leave copies around your car, home and workplace, and say them aloud when you see them.
7. MOVE INTO A NEW WORLD
7. Intend to see a change.
If you don’t, you’ll be expecting this person to keep treating you badly – and they will. You’ll be throwing the issue forward into your future… and voilà unfortunately you’ll move into it. That’s why it happens again and again.
It’s a cycle. Break the cycle.
Your thoughts create the life you experience.
Change your thoughts to get what you want.
“If you do not conquer self, you will be conquered by self.”
~~ Napoleon Hill (American author of several books incl. Think and Grow Rich in 1937 – Hill was one of the earliest producers of personal success literature 1883 – 1970)
Once you get an “aha” moment, you automatically get new choices.
Once you’re taking responsibility and choosing to resolve your issues within, you’ll find a few things happen, such as:
The situation eases. Why? This person’s job as your teacher is accomplished.
The person drops out of your life. Why? Because you’ve risen to a higher vibration, you’re moving into exciting new relationships aligned with the new you.
Bonus Point #8
Congratulate yourself for taking action and now contemplate all your strengths. One of them being:
“It is a sign of strength, not of weakness, to admit that you don’t know all the answers.”
~~ John P. Lougbrane
So Remember…
I wish you many fabulous family gatherings. If you find yourself getting annoyed at someone, ask yourself:
“Do I blame them or blame no-one, and choose the higher road to wisdom?”
Hopefully you decide to be at peace with this person, see them as an asset and use the lesson to help you grow into a beautiful transformed butterfly.
When you’re ready to learn more, order a copy of How to Get Anything You Want – Just Like That! (on Amazon or on this site – see buttons on the left) and…
Join all those people who have already found renewed joy in life:
“I felt it touched upon many aspects of life, and didn’t try to preach to me or to provide me with a strict regimen of instruction for bettering myself. It makes you think about self-awareness and I really loved the inspirational quotes that were at the beginning of each chapter.
The book is easy to read, hard to put down at times, in fact. Janet is a believer in loving who you are and not trying to squeeze yourself into a box or change yourself to fit someone else’s mold or idea. If you can love yourself as you are, the rest will follow.
The book is perfect not just for one type of person either, no matter who you are, where you are in life, there is something for everyone and each person will take something important away after reading it.”
“An excellent book which can and will help you change your life for the better. The emphasis of the exercises and guidance in the book is all about your ‘self ‘ – How you see yourself, what pre-determined ideas and beliefs you have and how others react to your behaviour and attitude.
The challenges and demands which we face in our lives are cleverly broken down into chapters and for each demand/challenge the author gives you an alternative thought process to help you cope. With practice this could lead to that demand/challenge becoming less of an impact on your life and therefore eliminating that problem and as each problem is eradicated your life is enriched.”
