Nine simple steps to turn your success dream into reality Decide today to bring the deep reservoirs of potential within you to the surface and realise the success that is your birthright. You can always tell what’s happening on the inside by looking at what’s happening on the outside. Whenever we find that the things that are coming into our lives are not to our liking, we’ve got to ask ourselves; “How are we acting? What are we emotionally involved with? What kind of ideas are we entertaining?” entertaining ?” Here are are nine nine ideas that warrant your serious thought. 1. Unlock the secrets of your wondrous mind
Psychologists and psychiatrists will tell you that your marvellous mind works on many levels. Work with these two — your your conscious and the subconscious. Your body is but an instrument of your mind and merely obeys the instructions of your feeling mind — mind — the the subconscious level of your mind. Unfortunately, most people’s paradigm causes them to be subservient to their outside world. Embrace the genius locked up within you. Your intellectua intellectuall DNA, the essence of who you are is perfect. 2. Stay in charge no matter the circumstance
Listen to most people or study their behaviour, it will become obvious that they are not thinking, otherwise they would not say what they say or do what they do. Know that mental activity does not constitute thinking. Most people look at their lives — lives — which which cause them to think — their their thoughts create feelings in them, their feelings cause them to act — — and and their actions give much the same old unwanted outcomes. You want to operate with the end in mind. Your thinking needs to be powered by your desired outcomes. The outside world does not control you. You control the outside world. 3. Create the environment you want
What we experience directly reflect the image we hold of ourselves. Improve your self image and the improvement will automatically automatically reflect in your life. “The greatest discovery of my generation is that human beings can alter their lives by altering their attitudes of mind.” I couldn’t agree more with w ith Dr. William James on that. Your self image is pivotal to your outcomes. Know that it is always for greater expansion and fuller expression. 4. Identify and avoid the land mines that sabotage your success
Whenever we think of making dramatic changes, anything out of the ordinary, we run head-first into a brick wall. Paralysing fear. Most of us lack the awareness of how our mind functions. When experiencing fear, we retreat to our comfortable monotonous status convincing ourselves that we are better off safe than sorry. sorry. You become what we think about. Realise that to change your results, you must change their paradigm. This requires strong conscious control over your thinking. Paradigm changes are a constant requirement for any forward thinking leader oper ating ating in today’s dynamic workspace.
5. Align you with you
Only those individuals whose beliefs are sound — in harmony with universal laws and have integrated these beliefs with their behaviour emerge as real leaders. Such alignment will cause wildly successful outcomes in all spheres of your life with constant regularity. Possibility, power and profit are within your reach. All you need to do is take the decision to draw it out. Belief in your capability is key. Know that you will never go beyond where you believe you can go. 6. Mental attitude
Know that there is power flowing to and through you. As it flows into your consciousness, you make it either positive or negative by virtue of the thoughts you choose. It is apparent that only a s mall percentage of the population are in control of their attitude. Most of our attitudes are controlled by the media, other people, conditions and circumstances in our lives. Genius is not s o much talent as it is attitude. It is a decision that you can do well at anything you choose. 7. Appreciate the leader within
Know that a person will never be paid for more than they are willing to do. Understand this and help others know it. 8. Understand human selfishness
All our activities as humans are based on our desire for increase because the desire for increase is inherent in all nature. Leaving everyone in your wake increase in one way or another. This requires you to become in harmony with the higher side other peo ple’s personalities. Success is not doing certain things. Success is doing things a certain way — giving our best. 9. Continually increase the power of your mind
We are living in the space age — the age of quantum physics — space travel — instant communication. Soak that in for a moment. You will not only like the idea of multiplying your effectiveness, it will begin to settle in your mind — feel comfortable. Develop a formula for dream realisation. Demand exponential gains rather than incremental progress. Exclusively mix your mind only with those who will grow you.
