Success is Waiting Within Each of Us!

December 25th, 2009

I’m a success. It wasn’t easy getting here, and it’s certainly not easy staying here. But I’m a success, and I’m here to share my experience and knowledge with you. This is going to be fast and furious. I have a lot of ground to cover, and not much time. Stick with me, however, and you can find the success inside of you too.
Success is simple. It is not easy. It is not something that can be ‘cut and pasted’ into your mind. It is not something that can be replicated by calling a hotline and making 3 easy monthly payments (plus shipping and handling). Success means effort. It means sacrifice. It means getting up with a purpose and staying focused. It means learning how to role with the punches. It means getting yourself together and kicking negativity out of your mind. There are so many methods, products and services out there right now trying to sell you success-on-tap. That is just so much nonsense. Reading a book is very different from applying the lessons. One makes you intellectual, the other makes you successful. Before going any further, ask yourself whether or not you are ready to graduate from intellect to success.
From now on, I am going to discuss some life lessons. From each of these lessons will come knowledge. This knowledge will form the body of the lessons that I am going to be bringing to you periodically. Use this knowledge. From artist to engineer, entry-level employee to CEO, you will undoubtedly become successful. These articles will provide a helping hand for you.
Lesson 1: Success Is Waiting Within Each Of Us
When I was young, I spent a lot of time watching TV or playing video games. My parents both worked, volunteered for their church, and were raising three of us. Because of that, I was able to skate by unnoticed because I kept to myself. As far as anyone was concerned, I was a good, polite, quiet kid. I just didn’t do very much beyond school or chores. I was frustrated. Then came drugs and alcohol. I used to think that my slacking in high school was because I was irresponsible. My problem was actually that I was UNDER-responsible. I was not actively seeking things to invest my time and effort in. I did not know that I could be important. I did not know that I could be taken seriously.
The Army changed that. I found myself having more responsibility than ever. My job was important. Other people’s lives depended on my ability to SUCCESSFULLY do my job. I felt utilized. I found out an important thing: I was much more content being engaged and active than I ever was when my life was on autopilot.
Is this true of you? Have you felt that you were destined for more than you are currently doing? Have you noticed that the only days you love your job are the days when you get to feel useful? If so, then let this be a wake up call. This series of articles is here for you. I will give you everything I know. You will be successful.
If you’re still not sure whether you need to be a success, then I’d challenge you to bear some things in mind. There are nearly 7 billion people on this planet right now. This world is also undergoing a period of fragile uncertainty. We face real problems. Too many mouths to feed. To many consumers and not enough resources. The news bombards us with stories about AIDS, Cancer, and economic recession. There is one universal cure for all of these problems. It is the one cure that has always fixed the world’s problems. It is simple: Successful people, armed with focus, passion, and purpose. Who are you to deprive the world of your talents? We NEED you to help fix problems, create new things, and inspire the rest of us.
Our next chat will focus on a formula that I’ve used to create success in my life. It has also changed the lives of others. It will work for you.

Gratitude The Secret Hidden Advantage

December 12th, 2009

So many times a door in life closes and we become angry, cursing our fate. We lose a job, our girlfriend or boyfriend leaves us, our house is virtually destroyed in a storm and we have to move. To most, the habitual response to those situations is purely negative. But to others, who know the secret, there is always the possibility of a hidden advantage.
What could that be like? Well, obviously, if you lose your job, you could get a better job, one that you would never thought of looking for. If you lose a boyfriend or have a divorce, there could be something in store from you. Things that seem bad are not always the worst possible things. Sometimes they are just a way of the universe opening up new possibilities for you to enjoy.
Therefore, at the very least, when something unexpected happens, you can realize that you are stepping into the unknown. But, is there a way you can step into these unknown and perhaps seemingly dangerous waters- and still put your best foot forward? Perhaps, you can use the healing and strengthening power of gratitude. Gratitude is not just an emotion, but a power, a power that empowers you to move forward.
What should we be grateful for? Yes, we should be grateful for our jobs, our homes, our cars, our financial rewards-but, principally, we should be thankful for our friends and families, for the loving relationships that nurture and sustain us everyday. But, instead, of letting our gratitude be like the backdrop of painting, a colorful but distant background to the events and drama in our lives, Hand suggests that it should be a very positive, very prominent part of our lives. How do we do this?
By daily, hourly, minute by minute, thanking God for the many wonderful things in our lives. In a recent video called The Secret, the movie focuses on the Law of Attraction, what it describes as the universe’s natural and lawful tendency to return back to us what is given it. So, if you give gratitude to the universe- gratitude for the abundance, love, happiness and peace in your life, for the manifold blessings you have-even if those seem somehow hiding under a shadow- the universe will return the attitude by bringing abundance, love, happiness and peace into your life. Sometimes it happens in a very surprising way.
The real secret, however; is to be thankful for your all the wonderful things you have in your life and to always seek the hidden advantage in the events that surround you. Dare to dream and make those dreams into your reality through your actions and thoughts.

The Secret of a Thankful Heart

December 12th, 2009

So many times a door in life closes and we become angry, cursing our fate. We lose a job, our girlfriend or boyfriend leaves us, our house is virtually destroyed in a storm and we have to move. To The famous Roman orator, Cicero, who lived in the First Century, A. D., had this to say about attitude, “A thankful heart is not only the greatest Virtue, but the parent of all the other virtues.”
At first glance, this is a puzzling little saying, but since Cicero is probably one of the world’s first motivational speakers, perhaps it is worth taking seriously. Still, we must ask, what is a thankful heart- especially in a world where hearts are so easily broken, where calamity and disappointment for so many, lurks behind every corner and where life seems so easily to dispense failure and dissatisfaction and heartbreak?
It would seem that a thankful heart is possessed by a man or a woman who habitually looks at the world with a feeling of thanksgiving or gratitude despite what other people might think of the world about them. To obtain a thankful heart, one must either be slightly insane, given the nature of things- or have adopted an attitude of thankfulness, despite the normal course of things- for some over-riding reason. Cicero must; of course, being talking about someone who holds the latter opinion for he also says that a thankful heart is “the parent of all other virtues.”
Some say that the Law of Attraction operates by sending back to you whatever you send out to the universe. It would seem that it would best to be sending out thoughts from a heart disciplined to look at the good side of things. In other words; look at life by seeking the invisible opportunity in difficulties, seize the possibilities for growth in adversity, and to look at life’s situations from the standpoint of a thankful heart. For most, the habitual response to those situations is purely negative. But to others, who know the secret, there is always the possibility of a hidden advantage.
What could that be like? Well, obviously, if you lose your job, you could get a better job, one that you would never thought of looking for.

Money, and the Law of Attraction Cards: A 60-Card Deck, plus Dear Friends card (Cards)

November 30th, 2009

Money, and the Law of Attraction Cards: A 60-Card Deck, plus Dear Friends card

“While money is not absolutely essential to your experience, to most people, money and freedom are synonymous. And since an intense awareness of your right to be free is at the very core of that which you are, it follows, therefore, that your relationship with money is one of the most important subjects of your life experience. And so, it is no wonder that you have such strong feelings about the subject of money. “It is our expectation that as you ponder these cards every day, a new point of attraction will begin to be activated within you, bringing not only more money into your experience, but evidence of your absolute freedom as well.”   — Esther & Jerry

About the Author

Feel It Real!: A Guided Approach to Bringing the Law of Attraction into Your Life (Hardcover)

November 27th, 2009

Feel It Real!: A Guided Approach to Bringing the Law of Attraction into Your Life

From Publishers Weekly

Coates, an actress, personal coach and author (Our Burden is Light) trained in reading and healing auras and chakras, has created a fun, intelligent guide to the Law of Attraction, an old idea revived by Rhonda Byrne’s bestseller The Secret. Coates forgoes case histories and impractical theory in favor of learning by doing; more than half the text is devoted to 56 “games to attract your desires” (”Pick ten things to do for sheer pleasure”; perform anonymous good deeds; write out “commands or ‘orders’ that you want the Universe to fulfill”). The Law of Attraction’s premise is that people are constantly emitting vibrational signals through thoughts and feelings; by feeling and giving love, we can increase our positive vibrations and attract like frequencies, i.e. similarly-upbeat people and events. Simple questionnaires and visualization exercises provide a wide range of activities, so it’s easy to find some homework that resonates. Even if the Univ (more…)

Laws of Attraction (2004)

November 24th, 2009

Laws of Attraction

Amazon.com

Julianne Moore and Pierce Brosnan turn on the movie-star twinkle in Laws of Attraction. They’re both divorce lawyers whose in-court conflicts give rise to sparks of an entirely different nature–and while they’re in Ireland, trying to determine whether the husband or wife in a rock-star divorce deserves to keep a swank castle, they “accidentally” get married. Back in New York, they agree to keep up the pretence of marriage, lest a quickie divorce make them the laughingstocks of the legal community. Few comedies are as outright clumsy as Laws of Attraction; the plot falls apart even as you’re watching it, the dialogue stumbles, the direction is graceless. Somehow Moore (Far From Heaven, The Hours) and Brosnan (Tomorrow Never Dies) sustain their charm–but if you’re looking for a comedy about divorce, Intolerable Cruelty or the classic Adam’s Rib provide a lot more fun. –Bret Fetzer
