Thinking Big And Abundant Thoughts
Success coaches tell us to “Think Big!”, set big goals, if you want millions, think in millions, there’s no need to settle for less. This is the advice from people who have successfully acquired lots of money by thinking big, it has worked for them. High profile teachers such as T Harv Eker, John Assaraf and Robert Allen, to name but three, all dreamt of being millionaires from an early age yet also experienced all manner of ups and downs on the way to eventual success. They had fairly big dreams from the outset and succeeded in spite of every setback but what of us with more modest dreams? Is it more crucial that we think big or that we think true to ourselves? Can or should you force yourself to think big when what really interests you is the smaller stuff?
Meaningful New Years Resolutions
A new year begins and so does the annual round of resolutions that are so frequently neglected as old habits return and the pressures of day to life build once more.
Here are a few tips I’ve learnt through experience that I encourage you to consider very carefully.
Resolutions For Dreamer Achievers
Well its early January as I write this, a time of year typically associated with new resolutions and planning for the year ahead. I’m offering a few thoughts here on such ideas and plans that may be more helpful for some than the typical guru mantra of goal setting.
Get More Things Done, Have More Life or Both?
Productivity is the mantra for the new world, get more done, be more productive. Indeed if you are in a business competing in the marketplace it is generally the company that can do the most for the least that thrives, that has the productive edge over the competition but where does it end?
On a personal level, how do you want to live? Do you want to micro manage your every waking hour to get more stuff done? Does being more productive lead to an increased sense of well being or does increased well being lead to increased productivity? If our days were 30 hours long would we really have more “free” time or would we just fill it with more stuff to do?
Truth and Denial: Further Reflections on Steve Pavlina's book.
Early on in Steve Pavlina’s book he offers a self assessment exercise to assist us in identifying our areas of truth and denial. “Truth” being one of his proposed core principals; in his words “Truth is the first principle of personal development. We primarily grow as human beings by discovering new truths about ourselves and our reality.” I agree. In his book he offers us the exercise given below. I will caution that taking this exercise on its own, out of the context in which it is presented in the book, may be a little misleading. In the book it is framed within a thoughtful and informative exploration of the nature of truth and its application to our lives. However it still stands on its own and gives us plenty to ponder.
Free "Mind Movie" software
There as been something of a buzz around the web lately about Mind Movies. I feel these are an excellent tool to use in helping improve your life and to this end I’ve created a free “Mind Movie” to inspire you to begin seriously looking and feeling your way forward into an experience of greater happiness, fulfilment, joy and abundance. I’ve created this slide presentation for you to use as both an inspiration and as a template for creating your own movie.

What are you waiting for? - Dr Robert Anthony
Are you putting off your dreams? Or have things slowed down recently? Is your life visibly changing the way you want it to? Or are you still stuck with the same problems?
Getting Out Of The Way - Letting Go.
Creating the life of our dreams is about letting go and letting life; we dream and life fills in the details. This creative journey may be very different to the plans our limited ego based minds might have envisaged. Hence the saying “Be careful what you wish for because you might just get it”.
