Are You Using Real Visualization

Visualization is like anything else the more you practise it the better you get. However, there is one thing that can stand in your way and that is the difference between what is real and what is imagined.

Want to Be a Better Public Speaker – Silence is a gift

Many speakers are nervous when they start their presentations and sadly many do not overcome their nerves during the course of their presentation. Typical symptoms are speaking faster at an ever-increasing rate and forgetting to breathe. During the latter, the brain receives less oxygen and the ensuing brain fog clouds the presentation. Take a pause to breathe before your presentation and frequently during its course.

You have all come across the speaker whose voice becomes progressively more croaky as the dialogue winds on, especially in a warm venue. The audience finds itself looking at the glass of cold clear water … Read the full article

Compound Experience

As there is power in financial compound interest, there is also power in compound experience. There is a vast difference between compound interest and that of compound experience.

Financial compound interest takes a long time to start producing financial results for the normal person on the outside of the financial know how circle. For instance, you could save $100 on a monthly basis and invest it in a savings account.

While that sounds like useful … Read the full article

Snap Out Of It

It is said that we receive what we focus on. This can come about by positive and negative thoughts.

One of the techniques to counter negative thoughts is to stretch a plain old rubber band on your wrist. As soon as that enveloping negative thought starts, pull back the rubber band and snap it. Your brain is diverted into focusing … Read the full article

Reasons to Become More Conscious

What are the actual benefits of becoming more conscious? Why would anyone care to do this? And what the heck does it even mean to raise your consciousness anyway?

While raising your consciousness can certainly enhance your spiritual development, this isn’t really a spiritual issue at its core. It’s really about hardcore mental development.

What does it mean to become more conscious? I define it as the progressive realization of conscious mastery over your mind. This includes all of the following:

making careful, intelligent, and deliberate decisions
maintaining a positive emotional state regardless of circumstances
developing empowering beliefs while purging

Polarity And The Law Of Attraction

Every intention has a content component plus an energy component, and both are equally important when it comes to applying the Law of Attraction.

Be Patient With Self-Conditioning

When you use the priming effect or any other daily reinforcement technique to condition yourself for success, abundance, or other positive changes, patience is key.

During the first week or two, it will usually seem like your efforts are having little or no effect. But if the technique is effective, then usually within several weeks after you begin, you’ll start seeing significant shifts in your thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and behaviors. At some point you’ll observe that you seem to be making huge leaps forward every week.

The Law of Attraction

The Law of Attraction simply says that you attract into your life whatever you think about. Your dominant thoughts will find a way to manifest. But the Law of Attraction gives rise to some tough questions that don’t seem to have good answers. These problems aren’t caused by the Law of Attraction itself but rather by the Law of Attraction as applied to objective reality.

Here are some of those problematic questions:

What happens when people put out conflicting intentions, like two people intending to get the same promotion when only one position is available?
Do children, babies, and/or animals
