Turbocharge Your Affirmations

2005-05-01T01:20:00.000-10:00

Do affirmations work? My personal experience has shown to me that it absolutely does. But you have to do more than just mindlessly repeat your statements like a parrot. In order for affirmations to work, you have to pick the right statements that 'agree' with you, do them often enough with the proper emotion and visualization, and express sincere gratitude that they've already been accomplished. The whole purpose of doing affirmations is to replace the old counterproductive beliefs that have been 'hardwired' through your neural connections over the years. Most likely these old patterns of thinking were themselves imprinted by repetition and/or strong emotional response. The more strongly entrenched these old habits are, the more work you have to do. But it's absolutely doable.

Jeff Staniforth has thoroughly studied the subject and created a system that takes affirmations to a whole new level. Jeff developed a powerful software called Sculptor 3. This highly acclaimed program combines 7 technologies that amplify and accelerate the manifestation of your dreams and desires: affirmation, visualization, brainwave technology, subliminals, sentence completion, goal-setting and whole brain synchronization. You can find out more info about this highly effective tool here.

We have added a new Article category focused primarily on the subject of Affirmations. Jeff has contributed some articles that you will surely find very helpful. Check out our Affirmations Articles now.

Feng Shui for Wealth Articles

2005-04-18T01:37:00.000-10:00

You attract into your life that which is in accordance with your thoughts. This is how the deliberate creation school of thought acknowledges the relationship between your consciousness and your environment. It's firmly based on the law of attraction or "creating from the inside out." This includes not only your life experiences, but literally also the concrete manifest form of objects, including your living space.

Feng Shui also sees this relationship, but also goes on to say that you can manipulate that environment in order to create change in your consciousness. Consciousness, as we know, defines life experience. The state of harmony or disharmony in the space around you, in the relationships among objects and energies seen or unseen, gets reflected in the state of harmony or disharmony in your life experience.

This relationship may seem like cause-and-effect, but it's actually more like a mirror. A change in one is reflected in the other: a change in your thinking (conscious and subconscious) will show in your environment, and vice versa.

Feng shui practice through the centuries has dissected this intimate connection. It has learned to see and create the relationship patterns in a space that are beneficial to the inhabitant. Feng shui has determined that certain areas of your space correspond to certain areas of your life: wealth, love, family, health, etc.. It is all about aesthetics but taken to a deeper level: it takes into account not only visual harmony but energetic harmony as well.

It is an art, and various schools of feng shui have developed over the years. Some are esoteric and traditional and demand a great deal of study, others are more intuitive and common sense, while yet others combine methods as appropriate. Some applications are universal--such as maintaining a clutter-free space--and others are specific and personal--such as what your lucky and unlucky directions are based on your date of birth.

Is feng shui necessary if you already are cultivating the right consciousness? Isn't that enough? Well, feng shui consultants have often been surprised at how some people whom they consider to be developed in awareness have instinctively created living spaces that are in harmony according to feng shui. So if you change your mind, ultimately your surroundings change with you. Ever notice how most wealthy people have such clean, well-kept living spaces? And if you check their wealth area you may find that they have the right elements in place, even if they don't know feng shui from chop suey.

Inversely, strict feng shui adherents claim there is no need to change your intention or your thinking in order for feng shui to work. All you need to do is apply the feng shui treatments and things in your life would shift accordingly.

But why not do both? They are not mutually exclusive, as mentioned, but rather reflections of one another. Change your mindset AND tweak your space, and see how much faster you manifest harmony in your finance, relationships, career, etc.

Feng shui applications for attracting wealth is one of the most explored and most in demand, for obvious reasons. Feng shui is definitely one of the tools you would want to add in your toolbox for a comprehensive and integral approach to creating wealth and abundance in your life. For this purpose, we have started a Feng Shui for Wealth category in our Articles section as starting points. Begin exploring now.

A Rags to Riches Story

2005-04-06T01:01:00.000-10:00

You've heard the expression, "it is possible to change your life around if you put your mind to it." So many times in fact that you gloss over it when you hear it again and say, yeah, yeah, until you come across s story of someone who has done it--and in such a remarkable way--that you can't help but pay attention.

Mike Brescia is the founder of one of the top personal development companies and was at one point the highest paid sales executive in the WORLD in three separate industries. But he did not start out so well.

In fact, for years he was homeless, living in a van, and kept getting fired from $5-an-hour jobs. It's not that he wasn't trying to better himself. He was reading popular books on selling and motivation. Yet he kept failing. Until one day he had a eureka moment and developed his own system that was so powerful it catapulted him into unimaginable heights of sales success.

But we're getting ahead of the story. Read Mike's inspiring story of a remarkable turn around that proved the immense power of your thoughts: From the Bench to the Playing Field

The Golden Rule Updated?

2005-03-29T22:45:00.000-10:00

We've all heard of the Golden Rule: "Treat others the way you want to be treated." It's the foundation of any moral code (or karmic code, as some would say). But what about Platinum Rule? "Treat others the way THEY want to be treated." It's a switch in perspective. The Platinum Rule doesn't assume that others have the same inclinations or preferences as you do. It's a way of actually stepping into another's shoes and seeing the world from their view. Once you understand where they're coming from, once you understand how it is to be like them, then you'd understand what they like and how they want to be treated.

The term 'Platinum Rule' was coined by Dr. Tony Alessandra, one of the foremost motivational speakers in the country. Dr. Alessandra identified four Behavioral Styles that most people fit in: the Director, Socializer, Thinker and Relater. We all have these qualities to certain degrees, but we all have a dominant style. The point is, if you can identify what another person's dominant style is, you can adapt accordingly and relate to them in a way that wins them over. This is perfect for any kind of business or personal relationship. It's a surefire way of diffusing conflict and establishing rapport, a way of knowing the other person's needs and meeting them. It's a win-win way of motivating someone into action.

What is your Behaviroal Style? Are you a Director, Socializer, Thinker or Relater? What is your boss's style? Or your employee's? What about your wife or son? Read this fascinating article by Dr. Alessandra, The Platinum Rule, and then take the FREE Behavioral Style Assessment to identify your personality style. This is a valuable tool to charge up your emotional intelligence.

After all, it's the EQ (Emotional Intelligence), not IQ, that determines success in the real world, remember? (Hmm, wait a second. Did a Relater come up with that notion? Or a Thinker? Anyway, read on.)

However, 13% of people in the same age group mentioned (55+) have saved over $250,000.

TRN Subliminal Software - Review

2005-03-23T01:06:00.000-10:00

The Think Right Now Suite for Windows is a software you install in your PC that flashes subliminal messages from the screen while you're working. You can use the messages provided or create your own messages for various traits, conditions or behavioral changes you want to acquire--financial abundance, weight loss, stop smoking, loving relationships, and others. You have control of the timing intervals and duration, message location, contrast, font size, etc., but there are suggested guidelines based on studies of what works best for you to follow.

I have installed it in my computer and I have messages flashing every 5 seconds while I work. Since I spend hours with my computer that amounts to thousands of subliminal exposure every day. Does it work? I think so, but I must admit it's hard to say in a quantifiable way since it's not the only tool I use. I like using several tools at once to cover all the bases in trying to achieve any objective. I do, however, trust the decades of research that show visual subliminals work. And when I review my subliminals to see if my current patterns of thinking and behaving are changing accordingly, I can honestly say that they are.

But you decide. If this arouses your curiosity one bit, check out the literature and read the testimonials from other users. They also offer a one year money back guarantee. It can't hurt. Find out more about it here.

FREE Prosperity Partnership Teleclass

2005-03-20T16:11:00.000-10:00

One of our favorite programs in learning how to create deliberately is Elyse Hope Killoran's Prosperity Partnership Program (PPP). Elyse's program starts with the premise that material OR spiritual approach to life alone does not lead to lasting fulfillment. You cannot be materially successful and spiritually bankrupt and be happy for long. AND vice versa! In order to experience true prosperity, you need both inner and outer success.

Elyse offers a 12-week Foundational PPP class that includes 12 weeks of teleconference classes of 1 hour each week (you have choice of time). Elyse leads the classes herself, and sometimes invites guest facilitators who are leading experts in their field. There are also monthly Group Prosperity Coaching calls where you receive personalized support for achieving your goals. One of the best parts of the program is being part of an international community in a members-only website and email discussion list. There's nothing like joining a group of like-minded people with the same intentions as you do to accelerate the expansion of your consciousness--in this case, prosperity consciousness.

You have to be open-minded to join this program. It's a multi-dimensional approach to achieving fulfillment. So it involves a lot of inner work and energetic healing approaches--from chakra explorations and journaling to visualization and emotional releasing techniques, etc. But you get to deeply know yourself, and your own subconscious beliefs that have been dictating your financial bottom line rise to the surface for you to deal with. The best thing is you're not doing it alone. And you do experience interesting breakthroughs and synchronistic results.

It's no surprise that the majority who join are women. But there are men also, of course, who are not afraid of these kinds of things. If this is your cup of tea, you can try the 2-week FREE evaluation that's now available.

Next Program start dates:
Sunday, March 20th at 9:00PM ET
Monday, March 21st at 10:00PM ET
Tuesday, March 22nd at 1:00PM ET
Sunday, April 17th at 9:00PM ET

The Power of Big Dreams

2005-03-19T00:29:00.000-10:00

Dr. Jill Ammon-Wexler's article, "Invest in a ((BIG)) Dream!", makes a point that true success and achievement begins by making commitment to expansive, "seemingly impossible," dreams. Big goals dissolve limitations, enhance self-esteem, and attract seemingly magical forces. Dr. Jill explains the three secrets to achieving your big dreams: Clarity, Commitment and Focus. She then gives a perfect real-life example of how one of her clients became one of the highest paid network marketing pros by following these principles. Read this article now.

Stuart Lichtman's Cybernetic Transposition - Review

2005-03-17T18:51:00.000-10:00

Stuart Lichtman's ebook, "How to Get Lots of Money for Anything - Fast!" has been around for a while, but continues to be popular. The hypey title is a bit of a turn-off at first, but if you can forgive him that you'd be richly rewarded with the superb techniques he's sharing in this book. Stuart is the creator of the Arintel artificial intelligence data analysis program and his formal education includes undergraduate and graduate work at MIT in engineering, psychology, and artificial intelligence, masters work in applied psychology, and doctoral work in organization development and cross cultural business. So you would expect to see that "engineering" and scientific type of approach to how the mind works and how it creates its experience of reality.

So how is this book different from other books on abundance, deliberate creation, visualization, etc.? Stuart has identified the four parts of the brain that have to do with how we respond to and create our circumstances:

- The right brain is fluent in patterns of arrangement, rhythm, and sound.
- The left brain's language is made up of words and logic.
- The midbrain communicates in emotions.
- The brainstem's language consists of physical stimulus and response.

The key to creating what we want is to have all four parts acting in coherence and going in the same direction. If even just one is out of synch with the others, you would have difficulty manifesting whatever it is that you desire. Line all of them up and you can achieve even "seemingly impossible" goals.

So how successful are his methods? How about close to 100%! More than 50,000 people around the world have tested his methods and achieved phenomenal results. Read the testimonials on his web page and you'd be impressed. We ourselves have applied his techniques and the results come in ways that give us goose bumps. After a while, you've come to expect it as being natural.

The only thing that probably needs to be improved upon in this ebook is the writing style. Stuart approached Joe Vitale, the internet marketing guru and copywriter, to co-write the ebook to make it accessible to a wider audience. Joe succeeded in doing that, but you get the sense that it is written by a copywriter. If you're a professional writer like my fiancee, you'd pick up on the violations of writing style and probably get distracted (I, on the other hand, am not so I barely noticed them). But otherwise, the content is superb and the methods outlined are a treasure you'd want to lock up in your safety deposit box. It's that good (even my fiancee keeps raving about it once she's gotten over what she considers as writing no-no's).

If you'd like to test drive his methods, you can try the Basic Achievement Technique he's givine away in his FREE minicourse. I urge you to check it out right now. You can thank me later.
