3 Steps To Make Your Dreams Into Reality

(Download)

This is the simplest formula for achieving your goals in 2010.  If you want to achieve your goals this year, you will have to do these three things.  No matter how much hype or fluff any “self development” product  or tool promises, you can not skip any of these three steps.

It seems easy enough…  just 3 little things stand between you and greatness.

It is easy to figure out what you want.

* Maybe you want to lose weight

* Maybe you want to quit smoking

* Maybe you want to make more money

It doesn’t matter what it is, all the those goals require motivation, a plan, and of course action.

Taking action isn’t hard.   Just ask everyone who has quit smoking and started back up again… or the person who went on a diet for 2 weeks before they went back to their old way of eating.

The plan was easy enough, and the action was there, but it was the MOTIVATION that lets people down.

Motivation is the one key to your success.  Even if the plan is modest, as long as you are motivated enough to stick with it, YOU WILL SUCCEED.

Hopefully the PDF above will help you with some tips to keep you motivated, but I would also like to offer you something I created JUST TO KEEP YOU MOTIVATED ALL of 2010.

I knew motivation was the key to everything, so I wrote this with you mind:

There are a lot of tools that can help you improve your life, such as the free subliminal videos, or the Secret Course, or even the simple Manifesting Cards.

But guess what?

Without motivation, no tool can work for you.

You have to actually watch the subliminal video in order for it to have a chance to imprint on your subconscious mind.   You would have to actually read the Secret Course and practice what it teaches.

I think one of the reasons that the Manifesting Cards are so successful for people is because it is quick and easy to use, so it does not require as much motivation, but still….  like any tool, if you don’t use it, it can’t work.

Exercise equipment that you never use, can not get you into shape.

I hope you will make this year different from all the years past, and that you check out Your 2010 Success and truly make this year different.

I wish you the best of success in 2010.

Warmest Regards,

- John Derrick

PS – Try to keep a positive attitude.  So what if you quit smoking for 60 days and started back up?  At least you took the burden off of your body for 60 days…  and next time you will do even better.

So what if you lost 20 lbs but put most of it back during the holidays.  Now you know you can do it!  Not to mention that good you did your body when that weight was off and you know how good being thinner felt so it is even more likely that you will accomplish it again.

As long as you stay motivated and keep moving forward, it doesn’t matter how slow your progress is, everyday you are 1 day closer to your goals.

My Favorite Product For This Week:

I think you will agree that there is a “feel good” lesson in this little story:

====================================================

When things in your life seem almost too much to handle, when 24 hours in
a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and the two cups of
coffee.

====================================================

A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, wordlessly, he picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls.
He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was.

The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.

The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with a unanimous “yes”.

The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar, effectively filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed.

“Now,” said the professor, as the laughter subsided, ” I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life.

The golf balls are the important things in life. Your God, your family, your children, your health, your friends, and your favorite passions: things that if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full.

The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house, and your car.
The sand is everything else: the small stuff.

“If you put the sand into the jar first,” he continued, “there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff, you will never have room for the things that are important to you. Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.

Play with your children. Take time to get medical checkups. Take your partner out to dinner. Play another 18. There will always be time to clean house and fix the disposal.

Take care of the golf balls first; the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.

One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee represented. The professor smiled. “I’m glad you asked. It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem, there’s always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend.”

My Favorite Product For This Week:

Do Affirmations work?

Yes and No.

Can they actually backfire?

Yes. Let me explain:

The two most powerful times to use a daily affirmation is when you first wake up before you get out of bed, and the last thought you have just before you go off to sleep. Those are the best times to program your subconscious mind. Certainly, the more times each day the better, but those two times pack the most impact.

Now, let’s say that your affirmation is “My body is completely healthy and lean” and it’s  the first thing you say every morning and the last thing you think before you drift off to sleep each night.

Will these words make you healthy and lean?

NO.

Words have no power in the law of attraction. If you say that you are healthy and lean everyday it will have no attraction power by itself. None. Zip. Zero. You might as well say you are the king of Egypt for all it matters.

It is the feeling that activates the attraction. Feeling is the vibration that goes out from you into the universe and actively attracts to you. Hollow words with no feelings attached have no power whatsoever.

So to make an affirmation have any power at all, you have to have to FEEL that which you are saying. In the example above, many people who are overweight will affirm that they are thin, but inside they are FEELING even fatter as they say the affirmation because they know it is a lie. Day in and day out, the affirmation is resulting in the FEELING of being fat, so you are in essence attracting more of being fat, not being thin. Thus, the affirmation backfires completely.

The universe does not speak English, Spanish or any other spoken or written language. The universe runs completely on vibration. Vibrations in you are powered by feelings. So if you want to have or be something, you have to vibrate at that level. Words are completely unnecessary to the universe, but they can be helpful for you to get you into that state of vibration.

If you can feel thin, without any words at all, then consider that your daily affirmation. IF you need words to make you feel thin, then use the words, but remember it is the feeling that counts. Pay attention to what you are feeling when you say the affirmation.

Remember, all affirmations are to be said (and felt) in the present tense, never the future. For example you never affirm that you are GOING TO BE anything, because what you are putting out into the universe is a constant message of “going to be” , and not actually being or having that you desire. That is never a good place to be stuck.

If you want to be healthy, feel healthy now and be thankful now for your great health. If you want to have money, feel having money now and be thankful for the tons of money you currently have. Like attracts like. You don’t want to attract “Someday being rich” to yourself.

Gratitude is a powerful vibrational feeling, so it can be used to begin almost any affirmation.
Some great examples of affirmations are:

I am so grateful that:
Money comes to be easily and frequently
My life flows through grace and ease
I have the house of my dreams
That universe is supporting me in my every effort

Even more powerful than affirmations is the use of a Manifesting Card. A Manifesting Card combines the power of daily affirmations, with the power of a vision boards, visualization, power of positive thinking, and the gratitude method….

Imagine the power of all those tools rolled into one little card that you can easily put into your pocket…    that is the power of a Manifesting Card.

Using the Manifesting Cards method will dramatically cut down the time it takes for your manifestations to come true.

Daily affirmations DO work, but they can take a LONG time before you see results.  There are many different reasons for this, all of which I cover inside here.

So if you are like me, and you don’t like to wait for the things you want today, I suggest you use the Manifesting Cards method.

I have often said that there is nothing that any self development guru can teach you that you don’t already know deep inside.

It’s how you sometimes know who is calling on the phone before you pick it up or look at the Caller ID.

We have all heard of people who had a “bad feeling”, or heard a a little voice warning them not to go on a trip only to find out hours later that their plane crashed and they would have been on it if they had not heeded that warning.

We all have this power, but it is a darkly kept secret because we have been kept in the dark about it!
