Creating Your Design For Your Ideal Life – Part 16

Goals have to be unrealistic to be effective

You’ll have heard this mantra a lot. And I am not a fan of it as it is too simplistic. We all once had the goal of staying up late and watching TV with our parents. Maybe that was unrealistic for a few but not for the many. For them it was realistic and they achieved it, eventually all did.

So what’s unrealistic about it? This sort of saying is why so many people simply do not get goal setting to work. They set unrealistic goals, don’t achieve them, are embarrassed by them, only try to believe them, don’t even get to the believe stage which is miles behind the know stage and then they lose interest and give up. Why do you think 99% fail with creating their design?

This sort of saying must always be kept in context, as in context this saying is perfectly reasonable. I can set unrealistic goals all day long because I have created unrealistic success. I therefore know it is achievable.Please Login or REGISTER to read the rest of this content.

Look For Ways To Add Value

When you start to think about ‘How to make money’, the primitive mindset thinks, ‘What can I come up with to sell to people?’ Whereas the evolved mindset is, ‘What can I come up with that people will want to buy?’

I think it was in Think and Grow Rich where Napoleon Hill said “Anyone can get rich if they find enough people to help.” Now this can be further explained, for example, if you have 1,000 people and you give them $1 or $1.5 of value in return for $1, then that is ok. This is what the majority of businesses do.

However, if you desire to create great riches then you need to find ways of giving $1,000 of value for $1. Sounds impossible or at least hard right? Well in my first book, people traded £20 of cash and then went out and made at least £25,000, some made millions.

But that’s information products, let’s look further, take Microsoft. Bill has taken a few thousand from me over the years, but I used and continue to use his tools to make millions. Do I begrudge him a penny? No, thanks to him I have made millions. If he’d put me on a continuity program instead of a fixed price then I’d still be paying him.

Now take Google, I didn’t even pay them anything and I use their service for free 20 times a day, and in the last hour at least half a dozen times. What value have those guys created for me in my life? I’ve spent nothing and their product saves me countless hours of my time. Do I begrudge them any money?… Are you kidding?Please Login or REGISTER to read the rest of this content.

Accept Whatever Is Happening In That Moment &… Just Be Happy

Whatever you desire already exists as a possibility. Your mind’s work is to bring this possibility into your reality, therefore there is no place for need and hope. If either of these are present then you are trying to force things. If you try to force something you will either not get what you think you want, or you will get more need to force things.

You must remain in a place of accepting whatever is happening in that moment and just being happy. Only then are you relaxed and allowing your desire to come into your reality.

When you are in the state of allowing and you are constantly happy, you can then start to sense your desire is close. You know it is close, you eagerly expect it to happen, yet you detach yourself from it. So you are in harmony, you are happy; you don’t need your desire to happen to make you any more complete than you are now, yet you expect your desire to happen. If you can tune yourself to that state then you are in the perfect position.Please Login or REGISTER to read the rest of this content.

Let Go, Allow It To Happen

~Do you want to know the single hardest part of getting what you desire? Learning to stop trying to figure out how to get it ~ Dr Robert Anthony

Once you have stated your intentions and you have handed the problem over to your subconscious mind then nearly all of the creative process will be complete before you see any physical evidence of it in your reality.

You have planted a seed and now you are allowing it to grow. If you actually plant a seed in the ground and you add water then you know the seed is growing. The ground is doing its stuff and under the surface new roots are taking shape. How many times have you had to dig up the seed to find out if it was growing?Please Login or REGISTER to read the rest of this content.

Have No Attachment – Accept What Is

During the book I have touched on the state of mind created around the law of detachment. Here I am going to cover how to link this in to so many of the elements which you may still be working on to either remove or attain.

When you harness the power which the Law of Detachment gives you then you are free to create your design with ease and least effort.

How To Release Your Genius

I have been very connected before to all sorts of things and yet when I started to look at what had gone wrong with my thinking, I found this attachment. The need to have things work out in the way I wanted them to was actually causing me both discomfort and pain, which then created more and more pain. I found it impossible to create when I was in pain.Please Login or REGISTER to read the rest of this content.

What Do You Desire More Than Anything Else?

You’ll probably have heard and realised this before, but if you don’t yet have the life you desire then it is down to this very simple but elusive fact. No matter what you read, what you buy, who you get to train you, you will not lead the life you desire unless you answer this one core underlying issue. You don’t have the life you desire, simply because you do not know what you want!

If you can’t describe to me what you desire without thought then you don’t know. Having a vague idea “ain’t worth bupkis” when it comes to this. Don’t believe me? Well when you decided to learn to walk did you know what you wanted?

If you don’t yet have what you desire then do you really need absolute proof that you don’t know what you desire? Think about when you are hungry and you can’t decide where to eat, this means you are not hungry. It is merely that you think it is time to eat. If you are really hungry then you instantly know what you want. You don’t need to think about it. This last point is very important, when you know what you desire you don’t need to think about it. When you are hungry in effect you are inspired to eat!Please Login or REGISTER to read the rest of this content.

Some Of The Successes I’ve Had

I’m going to share with you now some of my biggest goal achievements. I will keep these as brief as possible as the last thing I desire to do is to come over as bragging. I share just a few of these with you so that they may provide you with insights into how you can create on demand. However this is a fairly long section (you have been warned).

I will explain what I did right and what I did wrong, both of which provided the end result. I have spent a lot of time analysing both my successes and failures and there is one underlying trend with all of them as you will no doubt see. At the end I will also cover the three natural elements you will need to cultivate to create your chosen design.

Time To Show You How Fantastic You Are

Just how powerful are you and your mind? We are going to go through some amazing stuff here!

I’d like to thank Phil Gosling and his book Success Engineering for being my inspiration for this article. Others have written on it but I found Phil’s by far the best.

Your brain weighs about 1.4 kg (3 lbs.). In it there apparently are approximately 10 trillion brain cells, and each cell apparently connects with 100,000 cells which are located near to it. Some research says less, some says more! It seems every few years pass and their figures are dramatically increased as research ability grows, so who knows, whatever, it’s a lot!Please Login or REGISTER to read the rest of this content.

Have you ever take a trip without a plan

You decide you are going on holiday somewhere ‘hot and sunny,’ so you walk into a Travel Agents. After spending a few minutes in there you’ll realise that there is no place called hot and sunny.

You decide on the Mediterranean, but that’s a big place, so where in the Med? After a bit more thought and looking at brochures you’ll narrow it down to an Island off of Greece.

Then you want to go in June, but what day in June??? You want to leave on a Tuesday, which Tuesday? What date? What time? How much do you want to spend on the flight? You say to the Travel Agent, ‘I don’t know!’ And he can’t book your holiday!Please Login or REGISTER to read the rest of this content.

Perception & Imprinting

We all live in our own little worlds. No two people have the same perception or awareness of reality. However, we perceive the same world, it is just that we interpret what we see differently. Our overall awareness comes from all of our combined life experiences, our impression of them and our attitude to them. We see things differently, if we are in a good mood or a bad mood.

I remember driving through some villages in Cyprus when we were looking for a place to live and I wasn’t impressed, I was also annoyed with not being impressed as I had driven through them before and I could remember being impressed. A few days later I drove through the same villages and thought they were really nice.. what had changed?… The difference was the second time the Sun was shining. The good news for me was the sun shines nearly all of the time in Cyprus.Please Login or REGISTER to read the rest of this content.
