Thoughts Become Things

bradles · 11-19-2008, 03:05 AM

Hi Guys,

Today I want to share one of the most powerful lessons that I have ever learnt. If you master the teachings from this lesson then I guarantee your life will never be the same again!

What we focus on becomes our reality!

Four years ago I read an amazing book that has changed my life forever. The book is called ‘Think and Grow Rich’ and was written by Napoleon Hill in 1937. Napoleon Hill spent his entire life studying the laws of success and worked with some of the wealthiest men in history such as Andrew Carnegie and Henry Ford. His Laws of Success have stood the test of time and are still very valid today. If you take the time to read, study and apply those principles, I guarantee they will have a massive impact on your results and also the quality of your life.

Scientists have estimated that we have over 25,000 thoughts every day. The problem is that those 25,000 thoughts tend to be the exact same thoughts repeating themselves over and over again!

We develop patterns of behavior over time and our lives become very predictable. We sleep on the same side of the bed each night, we eat the same breakfast, brush our teeth in the same direction and have a shower washing the same body parts in the same order! We then drive to work on the same roads, talk to the same people and do the same work. We get home and watch the same television shows, have the same dinners and talk about the same topics.

We spend our entire working week counting down the days to the weekend. We then spend the weekend going out, drinking, socialising and complaining about how bad work is. Sunday night comes around quickly and we start getting depressed at the thought of going back to work again on Monday. This robot like routine repeats itself over and over again! Do you know that there are more heart attacks on a Monday morning at 9am than any other time in the week?

The sad fact is that 95% of people tend to bitch, whine and complain about their current situation without attempting to do anything to change it. They don’t realise that they are creating this miserable life by the way that they think!

Nothing changes if nothing changes!

95% of people are stuck in a rut in their lives and a rut is only a few inches above a grave! To change our lives we must change our habits and to change our habits we must change our thoughts! New thoughts lead to new feelings which lead to new actions which lead to new results!

Thoughts -> Feelings -> Actions -> Results

We must learn to monitor our thoughts if we want to change our lives. How much time do you spend focusing on what you don’t want in life instead of focusing on what you do want?

Imagine yourself like a human transmission tower, transmitting a frequency with your thoughts. If you want to change anything in your life, change the frequency by changing your thoughts.

The key to success is to spend more time focusing on what we want in life. We need to stop complaining about our current circumstances and accept the fact that we have created everything through our thoughts. We must accept full responsibility for our current reality. If we play a victim we are powerless. If we accept the fact that we have created everything in our lives then we now become powerful. We now have the ability to change our lives. All it takes is a decision! To change our current situation we must change our thoughts and refocus our energy.

If you type ‘Poverty’ into a Google search engine what comes up? Millions of topics about poverty! What happens if you type ‘Wealth’ into the same search engine? You get millions of pages about wealth!

What are you typing into your search engine?

If you are currently in debt and you keep getting bills in the mail then the first step is to stop complaining about the bills. Every time you complain about your level of debt you attract more debt into your life. This effect is compounded if you add extreme emotion to the situation. The frequency that you are emitting out to the universe is ‘Debt’! You need to start focusing on wealth and abundance if you want to get out of debt.

The same rule applies to people who continually protest against what they don’t want. They make up banners and posters, march down the street and start yelling “no more war, no more war’. They don’t realise that by doing this they are actually attracting more war into their lives! Whenever you add feeling and emotion to your thoughts the results are compounded one hundred fold. Instead of being anti war they must change their thoughts to being pro peace. Whether they are thinking ‘NO MORE WAR’ or ‘BRING ON THE WAR’ the vibration is EXACTLY the same and they will attract it into their lives.

Over the next few days start to monitor your thoughts.

Take note of how many times you focus on what you don’t want. Use your emotions as a guide. If you are feeling negative emotions then you must be focusing on something that you do not want. If you are feeling positive emotions then keep focusing on that!

As soon as you feel yourself focusing on negative situations immediately shift your focus to what you do want. This will take some practice but the first step to changing your life starts with increasing your awareness.

Cheers,

Brad

I love think and Grow Rich.

From Think & Grow Rich
By: Ella Wheeler Wilcox

"You never can tell what a thought will do
In bringing you hate or love--
For Thoughts are things, and their airy wings
Are swifter than carrier doves.
They follow the law of the universe--
Each thing creates its kind,
And they speed O'er the track to bring you back
Whatever went out from your mind."

So are you saying that if I begin to think every day about rolling on my bed with three incredibly gorgeous Playboy Playmates on top of thousands of $100.00 bills, then this will come true for me?

bradles · 11-19-2008, 03:51 PM

Well, you never know! Maybe if you keep reading your dating tips?

The key message is that our thoughts lead to feelings which lead to ACTIONS and then results. I am not saying that you just think something and then expect it to magiclaly appear before your eyes. ACTION is the most important step and I believe the Secret didn't highlight the importance of this.

Everything that we create begins with a thought. If we keep thinking of the things that we don't want then we will continue to create the same reality.

Cheers,

Brad

Abigail Beal · 11-19-2008, 04:12 PM

Great post

I love the analogy of a search engine and "what are you putting into yours?"

I think if you are new to the Law of Attraction, you can also simply start this by thinking about the things in your life that you *know* to be true. Especially think about any beliefs that limit you in some way. So if you think "you need to have a college education to be successful" and you don't have one -- this is a belief that is certainly worth removing from your mindset!

Change your beliefs = change your life

bradles · 11-19-2008, 04:24 PM

Hi Abigail,

That is a fantastic point! Our beliefs goven our results. If we truly believe that we can achieve a specific outcome and also take the necessary action then we will manifest this in our reality.

Many people want something on a conscious level (eg: more money) but on a subconscious level they have limiting beliefs that are preventing them from achieving the desired outcome. Maybe they have a subconsious belief that 'all rich people are arrogant'. Maybe they believe that 'you have to work hard for your money'. Maybe they think that they will lose all of their friends if they make more money.

There are literally thousands of subconscious limiting beliefs that can be holding us back from achieving the results that we desire on a conscious level. Our subconscious mind links massive pain to making more money and therefore sabotages our efforts.

Many of these limiting beliefs have stemmed from our parents in the first 5 years of our lives. We must learn to identify these limiting beliefs and replace them with empowering beliefs if we are to achieve the desired outcome.

Cheers,

Brad

Top Post Brad,
Mate I thoroughly agree with what you are saying. A few months ago I was not really seeing the results I wanted and I had no focus. I actually re read think and grow rich and got a good kick in the backside.
I was focusing on the wrong things and had a total mental shift. Since then things have been getting better and better, I have been exceeding my goals and I couldn't be happier.
Again, great post,

Sean

Nicely done Bradles. Got my vote for a thank you. Phil

Mari_Quint · 12-17-2008, 01:20 PM

It is from the subconscious level that we must learn to unlearn attracting negative vibes in our lives. Because no matter how much positivity we want to project outwardly, when in our thoughts, we still have that doubting feeling, the negavitivity would still manifest itself.

Abigail Beal · 12-17-2008, 03:25 PM

I've been reading this book Free Mind Free Body by D.R. Boisse and it talks about changing your mindset to attract the life you want. One of the most profound things for me was when Boisse says that our bad habits and challenges are created in an instant -- and they can be changed just as instantly. Very powerful to think that the ability to change your life lies within your mind and in your hands.

Canei Group · 12-17-2008, 04:28 PM

Hey Brad,

Great post!! I have read "Think and Grow Rich" about a dozen times and am currently really reading it slowly and studying it.

If this book were required reading in High School, I think this country would be a better place. You have to be the "gatekeeper" of your own mind and try to protect what goes in. It's been shown that the subconscious mind never forgets anything.

Definitely a good time for everyone to limit their access to negativity found on CNN and other sources and really focus on putting positive IN!

Thanks!

bradles · 12-18-2008, 11:31 PM

Thanks for the feedback guys!

This topic is more important now than ever before! Stock Market prices are crashing, property prices are falling, unemployment is rising, major companies are collapsing. It seems like the world is caving in when we watch the news and read the papers! Many people are fearful of the current economcic conditions and they are focusing on the fear. This is compounding the problem because fear adds fuel to the fire!

There is more opportunity now than ever before!

The Internet is BOOMING, property and stocks are at bargain prices and I am sooooo excited about 2009 and beyond!

We must focus on the possibilities and opportunities in times like this. Get excited and make the most of it! Wealth never disappears, it simply changes hands!

Cheers,

Brad

adrianasalmon · 12-18-2008, 11:47 PM

Wow Great post. I love Think and Grow Rich. Another Wonderful book that I have read is Born to Be Rich. I think we can start a movement to reprogram our Minds. Because our external world is a reflection of our thoughts. Powerful topic.

bradles · 12-19-2008, 12:00 AM

I absolutely LOVE Think and Grow Rich! I have lost count of how many times I have read it and I have just started again! Bob Proctor reads a few pages every single day and has done so for 40 years! He has probably read the book over 1000 times by now!

Here is an amazing Goal Setting process from the book. I find this is an extremely powerful process to focus our thoughts on what we want to create.

Six Steps to Turn Desires Into Gold

The method by which desire for riches can be transmuted into it’s financial equivalent, consists of six definite, practical steps:

FIRST

Fix in your mind the exact amount of money you desire.

SECOND

Determine exactly what you intend to give in return for the money you desire.

THIRD
Establish a definite date when you intend to possess the money you desire.

FOURTH

Create a definite plan for carrying out your desire and begin at once, whether you are ready or not, to put this plan into action.

FIFTH

Write out a clear, concise statement of the amount of money you intend to aquire, name the time limit for it’s aquisition, state what you intend to give in return for the money and describe clearly the plan by which you intend to accumulate it.

SIXTH

Read your written statement aloud, twice daily, once before bed and once in the morning. As you read - see, feel and believe yourself already in the possession of the money.

Follow these six steps for all of your goals (financial or otherwise). You will be amazed by what happens!

Cheers,

Brad

Was just about to ask what one can do to break the cycle.

Charles

bradles · 12-19-2008, 12:35 AM

I read your mind Charles!

The Six Step Process is not just for creating more money either. It works for relationships, health, career, etc. The key is to do this process every morning and night until the goal has been manifested. Consistency is a must. I love it!

Charles Harper · 12-19-2008, 01:18 AM

Every morning and every night...?

bradles · 12-19-2008, 04:03 PM

You don't need to do all Six Steps every morning and every night, just Step Six (it takes 5 - 10 minutes morning and night):

Read your written statement aloud, twice daily, once before bed and once in the morning. As you read - see, feel and believe yourself already in the possession of the money.

The key is to put yourself in the picture and feel the emotion as if you have already achieved your goal. Get all of the senses involved. Take note of any colours, smells, sounds, etc. Our subconscious mind does not know the difference between vivid imagination and reality!

Think and Grow Rich is a timeless classic.

We possess the most powerful magnet in the Universe ! We contain a magnetic power within us that is more powerful than anything in this world, and this magnetic power is emitted through our thoughts.

Thoughts are magnetic, and thoughts have a frequency. As we think, those thoughts are sent out into the Universe, and they magnetically attract all like things that are on the same frequency. Everything sent out returns to the Us, as we are the Source.

The law of attraction is always working, whether we believe it or understand it or not.

So be careful of what you think...as Our thoughts become things.

Brad, I like the fact that your plan doesn't just call for sitting around fantasizing about what you want but directs us to put a plan of action in place and then to immediately begin taking action!

Taking action is always better than sitting around wishing.

Thanks for sharing the knowledge brother.

There is tremendous power in this sixth step.

Reading ALOUD adds another dimension to your written statement as it now engages your auditory system. Hearing your voice say the words, helps to reinforce and accelerate your belief and acceptance of the declaration, and speed its materialization.

The six-step process is useful for intangibles too. You can use it to develop attributes and personality traits such as: courage, confidence, patience, tolerance and any other quality you'd like to bring to your life.

The stuff works!

Yes.. it could, if you also take action. Tony Robbins says

"I don't think you should go to your garden and start chanting, "There's no weeds ...there's no weeds." There are weeds there, and they're going to take your garden"

bradles · 01-05-2009, 04:30 PM

Hi Guys,

I am currently reading Psycho Cybernetics by Maxwell Maltz and it is such an awesome book. It talks about how our thoughts create our reality and how our Self Image determines our level of success.

Dr Maltz teaches a range of techniques and strategies to improve our Self Image and one of the most powerful strategies is to create a 'Theatre in our Minds'. In other words, we must practice using the power of Visualisation and Imagination on a consistent basis. We must visualise the future that we want to create in fine detail involving all of the senses. We can use this to improve any areas of our lives. Public Speaking, Confidence, Wealth, Charisma, Health, Fitness, etc.

Visualisation can be difficult at first but it quickly improves with consistent, daily practice. Start visualising the ideal future that you want to create and feel the emotion as if you are in the picture. When our Thoughts are combined with Feelings it sends out an incredibly powerful vibration to the Universe and we start to attract everything that our hearts desire!

Cheers,

Brad

We can do our best though

coachmike · 01-06-2009, 08:59 AM

I find that one of the most difficult challenges in focusing thoughts and realizing the manifestation of our thoughts is clearing out limiting beliefs. Often times we don't even know what beliefs are limiting us and preventing us from realizing what we desire. I really like Carol Look's book on Emotional Freedom Techniques, as well as Brad Yates site on the same subject.

I know in my experience one of the keys is to clear those limiting beliefs, as well as take inspired action.

Shariyf Clark · 01-06-2009, 02:53 PM

Hey guys,
I love this stuff. Reading "Think and Grow Rich" changed my life. I Do, however, have a gripe with a lot of the Law of Attraction material circulating around, as I feel a lot of de-emphasizes the importance of taking action. Not to mention, people have been coming up with all sorts of "complimentary laws" to beef the original concept up.

Speaking of the original concept, the first public mention of the law of attraction was in a book written in 1906 by William Walker Atkinson called "Thought Vibration or: The Law of Attraction In The Thought World". Modern writers seemed to have completely omitted the thought world part in their writings and teachings, which may be the cause for so much confusion. Also, and this is just based on my observation, the law isn't universal in a sense that it applies to ALL things, only those things that are capable of producing and intently directing their thought impulses. This includes being able to alter the submodalities (the audio, visual and kinesthetic ways of experiencing the thoughts) and produce the necessary state required to pass the desired outcome to the subconscious mind.

Either way you slice it, ACTION is the most important component. Without it, nothing would happen. It is also best to direct your intent to change towards things YOU can control already. The real change doesn't occur outside of yourself but within. Once this happens your external circumstances will reflect your internal circumstances.

persistence · 01-06-2009, 09:42 PM

This is really an interesting threads. I wonder if our thoughts translate into dreams as well. I was just dreaming of a beautiful girl that was formerly working with me. However, I realised that she has someone with her so that was really quite sad. Now, I am thinking of having five figure income in a month. I hope that materialises soon!

BubbasBits · 01-06-2009, 11:02 PM

I read Think And Grow Rich the first time in 1981, there is a reason that it has remained so popular over many years, its a great works and truly inspired book and it shows how the human mind really works to attain whatever we feed it. You definitely understand the book and use great analogies. I think I will go read it again.

TheRichVillain · 01-06-2009, 11:26 PM

Thoughts set off a frequency. Positive thoughts like love and optimism are higher frequency as opposed to negative thoughts like fear and hate which are low frequency.

The body's tissue (DNA) has receptors which are exposed to these frequencies whether set off by our thoughts or someone else. The higher frequency hits more receptors because the nature of the wave (short wave). The lower frequency does the opposite - missing many of those receptors because it is a long wave. Hitting these receptors is healthy, just like the human touch, it is interaction on the highest level.

When we go through our 25,000 thought-day, we can change our lives by consciously choosing to change the negative ones into positive ones. Remember that everyone broadcasts and receives these frequencies, and all too often we are reacting to someone's frequency without consciously choosing whether we want it to be negative or not. Just think about this next time you're cut off in traffic, or in a disagreement with someone you care about.

We can change this world if we start to change our frequency. Science has proven this, just look at the work of Dr. Masaru Emoto, he's proved that our thoughts can have a physical and measurable effect on water. Now take into consideration that people are 70% water and realize how many times and to what extent you can physically affect yourself each day just by choosing to think positive as opposed to negative.

If you want more of something in life, start by thinking about it, this will make it easier for you to then take action.

Program your own mind, don't let CNN do it for you. you get 25,000 opportunities a day. Just ask yourself was that thought a positive or negative one?

Follow up with concrete action. Reading your goals or affimations to yourself twice daily, or catching yourself in a negative thought or action and flipping it into a positive one can become a habit.

Depending on where you're starting from this can be challenging, but stick to it for 21 days, and you'll look back and laugh at how easy it is compared to the first day.

bradles · 01-07-2009, 04:22 PM

Hi Guys,

Thanks for all of your fantastic replies! I believe understanding these laws and principles are crucial to our success. I have been investing for 3 years and my results were very ordinary for the first 2. I made a lot of money, lost a lot of money and the process repeated over and over again! It was so frustrating and I soon discovered that I had many limiting beliefs about money, success and abundance and these subconscious beliefs were sabotaging my efforts.

18 months ago I started to discover techniques and strategies to uncover these limiting beliefs and this has enabled me to break through and achieve incredible success.

As Coachmike said, we need to clear those limiting beliefs in order to achieve success. Positive thinking alone will not make any difference if our underlying beliefs are negative!

I believe one of the most powerful strategies for clearing limiting beliefs is the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT). It involves positive affirmations while tapping various meridian points on the body. I was very skeptical at first but believe me, IT WORKS!

David Childerley has a fantastic you tube channel teaching many of these EFT techniques. Check out his channel at http://au.youtube.com/user/davidchilderley

Try watching the following video every morning and every night for 30 consecutive days

YouTube - EFT Tapping Create Abundance...

You will be amazed by what starts to happen!

BubbasBits · 01-07-2009, 11:43 PM

It's refreshing to find other people that actually understand how the human mind & spirit was engineered to operate. All of these principles can be found in the Bible and are starting to become more widely accepted. There is a great book that is now out of print from the early 1900's called "Bible mystery and meaning" by Judge Thomas Troward it explains this in great detail. There are also more and more books on the subject of Quantum Physics, we now actually know that science and spirituality work hand in hand and scientific research has proven this. In other words when it says in the Bible we were created in Gods image, it doesn't mean we look like him it means we are like him. We are all creators.

bradles · 01-10-2009, 12:28 AM

That is a powerful message Bubba, we are all creators and we have the power to manifest anything that our hearts desire. What could be more empowering than that? When we start to focus our thoughts and feelings on what we want then amazing things start to happen in all areas of our lives.

When I started to learn about these laws I found it easier to start with smaller goals and then gradually built up to larger goals as my confidence began to grow. It's not going to work if your first goal is to earn a million dollars when you are currently earning $60,000! Belief is essential when creating our reality. We must believe that the desired outcome is possible.

The first step is to become aware of the negative thought patterns that are preventing you from achieving the results that you are searching for.
A good way to do this is to write down all of your thoughts for a few days and then analyse them at the end. It is a big task but believe me, it is worth the time! Carry around a notebook everywhere you go and write down every thought that enters your mind. You may be surprised by the results!

samthor · 01-11-2009, 08:08 PM

"What are you typing into your search engine?"

ha. I like that.

Heather H · 01-11-2009, 10:05 PM

Thoughts do become things. There is no doubt in my mind. Even a simple statement like "my business IS successful" can change what you believe, and change the action you take. This is the statement I use to keep myself motivated and focused. I have become super focused since starting this mantra, and the results are starting to come in.

Before this I had a lot of back up plans... Changing my mindset has made all the difference!

I agree! At our core, we share His nature - the natural, essential characteristics and qualities; DNA, so to speak. That gives us the potential to perform great deeds once we understand how to use the universal principles that support them.

RickGueli · 01-12-2009, 03:00 AM

Superlative post Brad, though here's some feedback from me. See what you think.

The problem is that while people emphasise the important of - and developing the habit of - positive thinking, they tend to mistake the positive influence of thoughts otherwise deemed "negative" as well.

So take, for instance, sadness... worry... anxiety... anger... and the visualizations/thoughts that they accompany. Not acknowledging these, honoring their place in our lives, is akin to turning ourselves into luvy-duvy "positive thinking" ROBOTS.

I think the key is in learning to take on the observer's seat, and learning to harness the power of Light AND dark - Yang and Yin - to build functionality, momentum, action.

Becoming a COMPLETE human that wavers towards neither left, nor right, but harnesses the power of both.

Power = Yin/Yang together.

Interesting quote! To me, it alludes to the various levels of conciousness that unifies everything, the "many mansions" in my house.

If you master the teachings from this lesson then I guarantee your life will never be the same again! What we focus on becomes our reality! Four years ago I read an amazing book that has changed my life forever. The book is called ‘Think and Grow Rich’ and was written by Napoleon Hill in 1937. Napoleon Hill spent his entire life studying the laws of success and worked with some of the wealthiest men in history such as Andrew Carnegie and Henry Ford. His Laws of Success have stood the test of time and are still very valid today. If you take the time to read, study and apply those principles, I guarantee they will have a massive impact on your results and also the quality of your life. Scientists have estimated that we have over 25,000 thoughts every day. The problem is that those 25,000 thoughts tend to be the exact same thoughts repeating themselves over and over again! We develop patterns of behavior over time and our lives become very predictable. We sleep on the same side of the bed each night, we eat the same breakfast, brush our teeth in the same direction and have a shower washing the same body parts in the same order! We then drive to work on the same roads, talk to the same people and do the same work. We get home and watch the same television shows, have the same dinners and talk about the same topics. We spend our entire working week counting down the days to the weekend. We then spend the weekend going out, drinking, socialising and complaining about how bad work is. Sunday night comes around quickly and we start getting depressed at the thought of going back to work again on Monday. This robot like routine repeats itself over and over again! Do you know that there are more heart attacks on a Monday morning at 9am than any other time in the week? The sad fact is that 95% of people tend to bitch, whine and complain about their current situation without attempting to do anything to change it. They don’t realise that they are creating this miserable life by the way that they think! Nothing changes if nothing changes! 95% of people are stuck in a rut in their lives and a rut is only a few inches above a grave! To change our lives we must change our habits and to change our habits we must change our thoughts! New thoughts lead to new feelings which lead to new actions which lead to new results! Thoughts -> Feelings -> Actions -> Results We must learn to monitor our thoughts if we want to change our lives. How much time do you spend focusing on what you don’t want in life instead of focusing on what you do want? Imagine yourself like a human transmission tower, transmitting a frequency with your thoughts. If you want to change anything in your life, change the frequency by changing your thoughts. The key to success is to spend more time focusing on what we want in life. We need to stop complaining about our current circumstances and accept the fact that we have created everything through our thoughts. We must accept full responsibility for our current reality. If we play a victim we are powerless. If we accept the fact that we have created everything in our lives then we now become powerful. We now have the ability to change our lives. All it takes is a decision! To change our current situation we must change our thoughts and refocus our energy. If you type ‘Poverty’ into a Google search engine what comes up? Millions of topics about poverty! What happens if you type ‘Wealth’ into the same search engine? You get millions of pages about wealth! What are you typing into your search engine? If you are currently in debt and you keep getting bills in the mail then the first step is to stop complaining about the bills. Every time you complain about your level of debt you attract more debt into your life. This effect is compounded if you add extreme emotion to the situation. The frequency that you are emitting out to the universe is ‘Debt’! You need to start focusing on wealth and abundance if you want to get out of debt. The same rule applies to people who continually protest against what they don’t want. They make up banners and posters, march down the street and start yelling “no more war, no more war’. They don’t realise that by doing this they are actually attracting more war into their lives! Whenever you add feeling and emotion to your thoughts the results are compounded one hundred fold. Instead of being anti war they must change their thoughts to being pro peace. Whether they are thinking ‘NO MORE WAR’ or ‘BRING ON THE WAR’ the vibration is EXACTLY the same and they will attract it into their lives. Over the next few days start to monitor your thoughts. Take note of how many times you focus on what you don’t want. Use your emotions as a guide. If you are feeling negative emotions then you must be focusing on something that you do not want. If you are feeling positive emotions then keep focusing on that! As soon as you feel yourself focusing on negative situations immediately shift your focus to what you do want. This will take some practice but the first step to changing your life starts with increasing your awareness. Cheers, Brad

Maybe if you keep reading your dating tips? The key message is that our thoughts lead to feelings which lead to ACTIONS and then results. I am not saying that you just think something and then expect it to magiclaly appear before your eyes. ACTION is the most important step and I believe the Secret didn't highlight the importance of this. Everything that we create begins with a thought. If we keep thinking of the things that we don't want then we will continue to create the same reality. Cheers, Brad

Posts: 35 Thanks: 21 Thanked 4 Times in 4 Posts Contact Info	Re: Thoughts Become Things Great post I love the analogy of a search engine and "what are you putting into yours?" I think if you are new to the Law of Attraction, you can also simply start this by thinking about the things in your life that you know to be true. Especially think about any beliefs that limit you in some way. So if you think "you need to have a college education to be successful" and you don't have one -- this is a belief that is certainly worth removing from your mindset! Change your beliefs = change your life

Our beliefs goven our results. If we truly believe that we can achieve a specific outcome and also take the necessary action then we will manifest this in our reality. Many people want something on a conscious level (eg: more money) but on a subconscious level they have limiting beliefs that are preventing them from achieving the desired outcome. Maybe they have a subconsious belief that 'all rich people are arrogant'. Maybe they believe that 'you have to work hard for your money'. Maybe they think that they will lose all of their friends if they make more money. There are literally thousands of subconscious limiting beliefs that can be holding us back from achieving the results that we desire on a conscious level. Our subconscious mind links massive pain to making more money and therefore sabotages our efforts. Many of these limiting beliefs have stemmed from our parents in the first 5 years of our lives. We must learn to identify these limiting beliefs and replace them with empowering beliefs if we are to achieve the desired outcome. Cheers, Brad

I was focusing on the wrong things and had a total mental shift. Since then things have been getting better and better, I have been exceeding my goals and I couldn't be happier.

Boisse and it talks about changing your mindset to attract the life you want. One of the most profound things for me was when Boisse says that our bad habits and challenges are created in an instant -- and they can be changed just as instantly. Very powerful to think that the ability to change your life lies within your mind and in your hands.

I have read "Think and Grow Rich" about a dozen times and am currently really reading it slowly and studying it. If this book were required reading in High School, I think this country would be a better place. You have to be the "gatekeeper" of your own mind and try to protect what goes in. It's been shown that the subconscious mind never forgets anything. Definitely a good time for everyone to limit their access to negativity found on CNN and other sources and really focus on putting positive IN! Thanks!

This topic is more important now than ever before! Stock Market prices are crashing, property prices are falling, unemployment is rising, major companies are collapsing. It seems like the world is caving in when we watch the news and read the papers! Many people are fearful of the current economcic conditions and they are focusing on the fear. This is compounding the problem because fear adds fuel to the fire! There is more opportunity now than ever before! The Internet is BOOMING, property and stocks are at bargain prices and I am sooooo excited about 2009 and beyond! We must focus on the possibilities and opportunities in times like this. Get excited and make the most of it! Wealth never disappears, it simply changes hands! Cheers, Brad

I have lost count of how many times I have read it and I have just started again! Bob Proctor reads a few pages every single day and has done so for 40 years! He has probably read the book over 1000 times by now! Here is an amazing Goal Setting process from the book. I find this is an extremely powerful process to focus our thoughts on what we want to create. Six Steps to Turn Desires Into Gold The method by which desire for riches can be transmuted into it’s financial equivalent, consists of six definite, practical steps: FIRST Fix in your mind the exact amount of money you desire. SECOND Determine exactly what you intend to give in return for the money you desire. THIRD Establish a definite date when you intend to possess the money you desire. FOURTH Create a definite plan for carrying out your desire and begin at once, whether you are ready or not, to put this plan into action. FIFTH Write out a clear, concise statement of the amount of money you intend to aquire, name the time limit for it’s aquisition, state what you intend to give in return for the money and describe clearly the plan by which you intend to accumulate it. SIXTH Read your written statement aloud, twice daily, once before bed and once in the morning. As you read - see, feel and believe yourself already in the possession of the money. Follow these six steps for all of your goals (financial or otherwise). You will be amazed by what happens! Cheers, Brad

We possess the most powerful magnet in the Universe ! We contain a magnetic power within us that is more powerful than anything in this world, and this magnetic power is emitted through our thoughts. Thoughts are magnetic, and thoughts have a frequency. As we think, those thoughts are sent out into the Universe, and they magnetically attract all like things that are on the same frequency. Everything sent out returns to the Us, as we are the Source. The law of attraction is always working, whether we believe it or understand it or not. So be careful of what you think...as Our thoughts become things.

It talks about how our thoughts create our reality and how our Self Image determines our level of success. Dr Maltz teaches a range of techniques and strategies to improve our Self Image and one of the most powerful strategies is to create a 'Theatre in our Minds'. In other words, we must practice using the power of Visualisation and Imagination on a consistent basis. We must visualise the future that we want to create in fine detail involving all of the senses. We can use this to improve any areas of our lives. Public Speaking, Confidence, Wealth, Charisma, Health, Fitness, etc. Visualisation can be difficult at first but it quickly improves with consistent, daily practice. Start visualising the ideal future that you want to create and feel the emotion as if you are in the picture. When our Thoughts are combined with Feelings it sends out an incredibly powerful vibration to the Universe and we start to attract everything that our hearts desire! Cheers, Brad

Often times we don't even know what beliefs are limiting us and preventing us from realizing what we desire. I really like Carol Look's book on Emotional Freedom Techniques, as well as Brad Yates site on the same subject. I know in my experience one of the keys is to clear those limiting beliefs, as well as take inspired action.

Reading "Think and Grow Rich" changed my life. I Do, however, have a gripe with a lot of the Law of Attraction material circulating around, as I feel a lot of de-emphasizes the importance of taking action. Not to mention, people have been coming up with all sorts of "complimentary laws" to beef the original concept up. Speaking of the original concept, the first public mention of the law of attraction was in a book written in 1906 by William Walker Atkinson called "Thought Vibration or: The Law of Attraction In The Thought World". Modern writers seemed to have completely omitted the thought world part in their writings and teachings, which may be the cause for so much confusion. Also, and this is just based on my observation, the law isn't universal in a sense that it applies to ALL things, only those things that are capable of producing and intently directing their thought impulses. This includes being able to alter the submodalities (the audio, visual and kinesthetic ways of experiencing the thoughts) and produce the necessary state required to pass the desired outcome to the subconscious mind. Either way you slice it, ACTION is the most important component. Without it, nothing would happen. It is also best to direct your intent to change towards things YOU can control already. The real change doesn't occur outside of yourself but within. Once this happens your external circumstances will reflect your internal circumstances.

You definitely understand the book and use great analogies. I think I will go read it again.
