Inlroduction

In Course One of the Effortless Success program, you will learn core principles and practices for activating the Law ofAttraction in your life. Success happens from the inside out, so becoming familiar with your own inner guidance is essential. Throughout this course you will often be directed inward-to recognize your life purpose, to find symbols that inspire you and give you direction,

to discover your dreams and passions, to shape and evaluate each day's actions, and much more. By connecting with this inner guidance, you

will feel confident

and excited about where you are

headed and clear about how to get there. Wherever you direct your

intentions and your attention, you willfind the universe eagerly supporting you there.

Listening and responding to what the universe offers is another essential part of achieving success. Noticing and trusting what emerges around you, focusing on solutions rather than problems, and seeking feedback about your plans all keep you aligned

with

the Law ofAttraction and the Law of Least Effort.

Your emotions, too, play a key role. Powerful positive emotions propel you into action and generate a supportive response from those around you and from the whole universe. Using the tools

in this course, you will be able to release difficult emotions and generate positive ones to help propel you toward effortless success. To gain the greatest benefit from your Effortless Success progmm, be sure to listen to the supporting audio recordings that come with Course One. Listen to the ParaliminalAskirzg several times during the

first week of study, then once a week thereafter. For extra inspiration and guidance on living the Law ofAttraction, listen to the Effortless Success Basics question and answer CD. Use the Fast Finish recording

for a quick review of everything you learn in Course One.

"And I would say the secret to my success is that I've always listened. I pay attention to my mentors, my coaches, the people who come into my

life. I leamed to question whatever showed up in my life-to ask myself what is this opportunity, what is trying to emerge here? And instead of resisting change

I've always been seeking it and willing to cooperate with it." and growth,

Focus

On Receiving Inspirafion We invite you to begin a joumey with

us-to activate the Law of

Attraction by receiving inspiration. This means going inward. You can gently access inner guidance in several ways. One is to find personal symbols of success that inspire you. Another is to discover your life purpose. These lay a foundation

for the remaining stages in activating the Law ofAttractionforming intention, taking action, and experiencing growth. Going inward gives you clarity about where you're going and how to get there. You "tune in" to a source of guidance that goes by many names-God, spirit, higher power, inner guide, intuition,

inspiration The name doesn't matter. What does matter is to access the guidance that's available to you at any time.

I: Receive Inspirolion

Guidqnce from .fqck Cqnfield

On Receiving lnspirqtion Develop doily disciplines Get into the habit of engaging in short daily sessions devoted to your

life purpose and goals. You might spend three minutes reviewing your goals in the morning or 10 to 15 minutes completing one page of

a

novel you always dreamed of writing. While almost effortless,

the daily disciplines you choose to complete in the corilse of your day can over time bring huge results.

Trqvel to higher levels daily or on a regular basis to access your inner wisdom. Tuning into a higher level of consciousness will more effectively guide you toward achieving and fulfilling Set aside time for meditation

your highest purpose.

Benefil from processionol effecls Follow your intuitive impulses and beneflt from what Buckminster Fuller called processional effects. By following your intemal guidance and taking committed action that aligns with your highest good and the good ofothers, you experience results above and beyond your original intent or desire.

Pqy qftenfion lo whot you qre feeling Your internal guidance system provides feedback to let you know whether or not you are on course to fulfilling your purpose. Feeling a deep sense

ofjoy or contentment, for

instance, tells you that your

actions are aligned with what you are here to do, experience, or express in the world. Feelings of discomfort or even physical pain, on

the other hand, can be sending a message that your life is offcourse.

Keep lhe essence of your life purpose As you live your purpose you may sense its form changing over

time. Its core, however, is not likely to change but rather to unfold as you gain a deeper awareness of your purpose over time. The essence of your purpose remains while the qualities you bring

forward into the world expand.

Session 2= Forrn Intention

Trqnsition

The next stage in activating the Law of Attraction is to form

intention. Flesh out your dreams by adding details about when, how, and where you will take action on your inspiration. This means translating your inner guidance into goals, which are usually expressed in words. Words form a bridge between the invisible world of thought and the visible world of people, things, and events. When you form an intention to meet your goals, the universe starts to comply. Circumstances fall into place. Resources become available. Your inspired intention makes it all happen. You can also express your intention in images-through literally creating a vision of what you want to become. Exercises in the next session of this course help you to richly imagine what you hear, feel, and do when

On Forming Intention To activate the Law ofAttraction in your favor, a critical step is

to form clear, specific intentions that support your purpose. Then the universe can respond accordingly. To help you form your intentions and stay motivated, this session will guide you to:

. . . . .

Clear away "initations" that bog you down. Dream a long list of big, positive, detailed dreams. Create a vision for four major dimensions in your life.

Write effective affirmations to keep you focused and attract your vision to you. Have a "Come-As-You'll-Be" party to act out your reahzed vision.

.

Build your self-esteem nightly by appreciating and loving yourself.

These activities allow you to be a deliberate creator of your life. As

you do them, you will find pursuing your dreams to be exciting and easier than you think.
