Here’s another inspirational story in the field of manifesting goals in one’s business life. It concerns a woman who was doing ok in her Health and Wellness network marketing business, but was not really “getting it”, so to speak. Then through utilising a couple of Mike Brescia’s programs, she managed to increase her bottom line by 800%.

She managed to alter her success level by changing her focus. This seemed to happen almost without any conscious effort on her part and basically without her actually noticing the change occurring. Things just “opened up”, and the results she was getting in her business seemed to improve almost by magic.

The reason for this she puts down to the change from obssessing over the amount she was making in commisions each month (which is enough to cause stress for anyone) to a realisation that the real focus of the business was in helping other people to succeed in reaching their goals. This in turn made her realise that she was in fact doing what she loved and it no longer became a stressful experience.

She relates that after a few months of listening to the programs, all goals and ambitions came to the surface and cemented within her a deep sense of self belief. Rather than focusing on a point in the future where she would find the perfect person/team/magic system that would then bring her success, she realised that it was in fact SHE that was all these things, and had the power to create whatever success she wanted.

Accepting the fact that you are making a conscious decision to change is not always easy at first, and this was exactly what she found when first starting the program. Most people become used to their comfort zones, and taking yourself out of your zone can be stressful. But these feelings did not last very long, and quickly she felt herself able to make daily “good for me” choices and activities, whilst finding it much easier to ignore non-productive distractions.

This resulted in a growing comfort zone and resulted in her anxiety melting away. She had to break through personal barriers to get through to the “next level” or plateau of her own development, but this was all part of the growth experience, whereby you have to accept entering new areas outside your comfort zone and work through them. This she did by repeatedly playing the tapes and consistent use of affirmation.

Her success is down to having belief in the system and the willingness to follow through with the programs that Mike Brescia offers-basically the will to hit the play button even when you may have had a bad day and you don’t really feel like it.

Not long after becoming involved in the self-development/positive thinking area I came across a phrase that I had seen a number of times in the past but never taken any notice of. I’m referring, of course, to something called “The Law of Attraction”. I have to say I am usually none too struck on these kind of “new age” kind of philosophies that have no real scientific or hard anecdotal evidence, and are usually based on some kind of superstitious belief or half baked mysticism.

But the sheer weight of interest that there appears to be out there has eventually brought me round to the point where it needs some investigation and how it relates to the topics within this blog. A good place to start would be with a quote from the great Jim Rohn who says:” Success is not be pursued, it is to be attracted by the person you become”. Read that  again. It is a very profound statement, which kind of reverses the accepted notion that people need to get motivated to go after success, like it was some kind of quest.

Rather he is saying that if you concentrate on the qualities and attributes you acquire on your journey, you can’t help but arrive at your intended destination. I think! Whatever it is that you give your attention, focus and energy to will naturally be “attracted” to you because it is a like force. Of course this can either work in a positive, life-fulfilling manner or in a negative one where whatever negative thoughts you dwell on manifest themselves in unhappiness with your lot.

Unfortunately a lot of what we think to ourselves about day-to-day is not of a positive nature. I don’t know why, but our default mental self-talk setting is set negatively. Maybe its some kind of  self-protection that developed to keep us in our comfort zones from times when the world was a much more dangerous place than it is now. The problem is that this Law of Attraction (which is governed by our subconscious) doesn’t  distinguish between good thoughts or bad ones and embeds them regardless. Basically, whatever you think you will attract.

So how can we develop “success thinking”? You simply have to ask yourself-”What, exactly, is it I really want?” Define and write down exactly what it is you want to achieve in every aspect of your life. This would include your home and family life, business, personal goals and ambitions etc. Don’t hold back on this, be brutally honest about your hopes and dreams in an ideal world, even if they seem too far fetched and unrealistic to your negatively programmed subconscious.

Instead, use techniques like affirmations or visualization to literally flood your mind with positive, motivating thoughts and feelings, that over time will be accepted as fact by your subconcious. This will lead to a process whereby you begin to develop a success thinking habit that will ultimately attract the things that you told yourself you were going to achieve.
