Think Success and Manifest the Life of Your Dreams

Years ago, in his presentation entitled "The Strangest Secret," personal development pioneer Earl Nightingale presented a radical concept:

YOU ARE WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT MOST OF THE TIME. 

Where most people think the formula for success is in the actions they take, Nightingale brought out a seldom-mentioned truth, that success begins with your thinking. It's critical to think success above all.

This is logical from the perspective that you can't get some place if you don't have any idea where you'd like to go. You could compare moving through life without any objectives in mind to captaining a ship without a steering wheel. In the absence of success thinking and setting goals, there is no way that you are going to create much success.

It's a proven fact that fewer than five out of a hundred people have any goals, and it's no surprise that a corresponding number lead pretty ordinary lives. To avoid falling into the lower 95%, use your head. Decide what you want to achieve, come up with some goals and get on a course to accomplish them.

Keys for Realizing Your Dreams with Success Thinking

1. DEVELOP YOUR THINKING and avoid doing the things most people are doing. The trap with this tip is that most individuals are programmed from childhood to expect to have an ordinary life, and you are undoubtedly reading this article because you'd like more. Thinking successfully begins with understanding that you've got to head in a different direction to produce different results than everyone else.

2. BUILD CONFIDENCE in your potential for achieving success. You may be hesitant about setting goals because you think you'll never accomplish them. From this point of view, it's easier to settle for a routine life, but it misses a vitally important point. You are an extraordinary human being who deserves everything good. The truth is that this is a friendly universe that wants us to live fully and to grow. Thinking successfully includes increasing your awareness of your strengths and utilizing them to reach for your dreams.

3. ACCESS A SUCCESS MODEL with a proven track record. This is another confusing concept, when you think about it. Most people go through life attempting to reinvent the wheel when they could be following in the footprints of people who have gone where they want to go. Success thinking includes exploring different avenues and finding the shortest route to your goals.

4. DON'T GET STUCK trying to figure out exactly how everything will happen. Just go as far as you can see and more steps will appear. This is one more place where a lot of people go astray with success thinking. They put off starting on the road to their goals, because they can't see any way that they'll be able to get there.

5. AVOID THE "NO TIME" TRAP. Because most people are not thinking positively, they aren't aware how much time they are spending doing things that are not taking them in the direction of their dreams. When you create a list of goals and determine where you want to go, the success secret here is to prioritize your time doing things that head you in the direction of your goals. If this means saying no to the things you've been doing that aren't taking you anywhere, do it. You will develop a greater sense of self-assurance and excitement knowing that you are heading toward your brightest possible future.

You can probably imagine how great it would feel to have your own business and make a real difference in peoples' lives. On the other hand, you may also know that most new businesses fail. And you'd like to know how can you turn this likelihood of failure into an opportunity for success.

This is a perfect place to start. With a bit of business sense, you can reap the rewards of building on a strong foundation for years to come.

Five Foundational Strategies for Creating a Successful Wellness Business

Learn everything you can about these people, so you can give them what they want and what they need.

3. Start with a success formula with a positive track record. Many new business owners try to figure it out on their own and reinvent the wheel. this is the hard way. To optimize your energy, time, and dollars, walk in the footsteps of people who done what you want to do.

4. Choose your friends and business associates wisely. Studies show that you become like the people who are closest to you. Build relationships with successful people who can support you and help you.

Going back to the first point, it starts within you. And if you are paying attention, spending time with successful people will change you in wonderful ways. You can progress much more quickly if your heart and soul are in the right place.

You can also eliminate fear and anxiety with a powerful method known as the Emotional Freedom Techniques. EFT, as it is commonly called, can also become a great tool for your wellness business.

Turn These Five formulas for Failure into Powerful Keys for Success

Just about everyone wants to have more success in business and in life. The desire to be all we can be and feel fully alive is healthy. But in this eagerness to create a good life, many of us miss the mark by unknowingly falling prey to some common formulas for failure rather than grasping proven keys for success.

The fact is that most of us are taught how to be good employees, not how to create tremendously joyful and fulfilling lives. But now more and more people are waking up to the desire to do something special, to be something special, and make a real difference in the world.

How can you avoid the plight of the uninformed?

Take your future in your own hands, as you are doing now. And the easiest path to follow is in the footsteps of those who have gone where you want to go.
To follow in the footsteps of highly successful people, here are five crucial mistakes to avoid and the related keys for success.

Five formulas for Failure and Keys for Success

1. Working harder, instead of smarter.
This is all part of “herd thinking.” You see, most of us were taught to set our sights on a steady job with health insurance and a good retirement plan. This is less and less likely to occur and even less likely to be fulfilling. Most employees are finding themselves working extra hours and extra jobs just to make ends meet.

If you want to create a truly fantastic life, you have to work smarter. Get out of that herd thinking. To produce different results, you must do things differently. And if you do your research, you’ll find that working smarter means you can earn more by working less.

2. Waiting for the perfect time.
When you ask people when they think they plan to do the things they really want with their lives, the usual answer comes in the form of a vague reference to a time somewhere out in the future.

If you’re paying attention, you may have noticed that that perfect time never comes. The only time you have is now. Opportunity, if you haven’t heard, may only knock once. The fact that you’re reading this means opportunity is at your door now. The key is to grab it and don’t let it go. Make this your time.

3. Groping blindly in the dark.
You are the creator of your life. If you don’t have a clear picture of what you want to create, how can you expect to get where you want to go?

So get a clear picture of where you are going and what life is going to look like when you get there. Set your eyes on the prize. Keep your brightest possible future in front of you every day and notice how your life starts to change.
4. Giving up.
If you are doing what you are here to do, the things that make you feel alive and give life meaning, giving up is not an option. Many highly successful people say that the main key to their success is that they kept playing the game long after the people around them quit.

The people who succeed are the ones who persevere. Continue to take steps towards your goals. It doesn’t matter how small these steps may be as long as you’re moving forward. You may be surprised to find that even a small adjustment in your course becomes a large change over time.

5. Forgetting that you are in control.
You may have noticed that most people live their lives perceiving themselves as victims of the economy, their families, their jobs, one of the political parties, or the like.

As suggested throughout this article, the truth is that you are the creator of your life and the only person who can live it is you. Who knows, your brightest possible future may already be within reach. In fact, if you start to live it now in small ways, the picture will come more and more into focus until you can look back with amazement at what you have created.
