In the 70’s unknowingly I stepped into a world of possibilities. How did that happen you might ask?
Actually, at the time I thought I was signing up for a sales career with plans for it to be quit short lived but from the moment I began the universe conspired to expand my thinking and open my world. I became a student of possibilities learning from the best teachers and mentors how important it was to notice your choice of words, to identify your purpose and to have clarity for the goals you set.
When you think of the most successful people you know, I am sure you can agree that they all have a positive attitude. They set audacious goals and reach them. I read the books that were suggested and I attended training events with some really amazing speakers like Zig Ziglar, Norman Vincent Peale and Mark Victor Hansen to name just a few amazing possibility thinkers. I found that they all shared the belief that more than talent or knowledge, your attitude determines your success and out of your current attitude evolves your future.
ATTITUDE IS 85% OF SUCCESS and TECHNIQUE IS ONLY 15%.
I’d like to share 4 lessons I learned from Mark Victor Hansen about Future Vision and how I interpreted each of them.
- WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET!
Imagination = “IMAGE” in Action. Whether you think it’s hard or whether you think it’s easy you are right! The mind only manifests whatever you impress upon it. Everything in your current circumstances came out of your imagination.
“What the Mind can conceive and believe, it will achieve!” – Napoleon Hill
- WHAT I SAY IS WHAT I GET!
Affirm your success … Throw away all the limiting words you use like: If I can, I hope, Maybe, I’ll try and replace them with: I CAN – I WILL – I CHOOSE!
Here are some positive affirmations to use…..
~ “I THINK PROSPEROUS THOUGHTS AND I AM GETTING PROSPEROUS.”
~ Stand in front of the mirror and say, “YOU ARE LOOKING GOOD!”
- WHAT I FEEL IS WHAT I GET!
It is so important to get in the habit of feeling good about yourself. The more action you take the more self-confident you become. Once you have a positive momentum going you will have more positive results. People pick up on your energy. We sell from feeling… prospects buy faster from the depth of your conviction than the height of your longing!
BELIEVE AND ACHIEVE, DOUBT AND DO WITHOUT
- WHAT I BELIEVE I ACHIEVE!
The belief system is stretched a little at a time; you cannot out-produce your beliefs. So it is important to not dwell on disappointments and not to replay the old tapes or scenes in your mind. If you catch yourself thinking negative or limiting thoughts then you must Interrupt them immediately!
Shout out …. or if you are not alone, quietly say, “I AM SOMEBODY SPECIAL… I DESERVE THE BEST”, say it over and over until the negative thoughts are gone. Then say an affirmation.
Here is one you can start with…
I AM ALIVE, ALERT, ENTHUSIASTIC
I AM HIGH ON LIFE
QUICK TO START AND SLOW TO STOP
HAPPINESS IS MY GAME
AND
SUCCESS IS MY AIM
I AM SOMEBODY SPECIAL!
“The journey to financial freedom starts the minute you decide you were destined for Prosperity, not Scarcity- for Abundance and not Lack. Isn’t there a part of you that has always known that? Can you see yourself living a bounteous life – A life of more than enough? It only takes one minute to decide. Decide now!” – Mark Victor Hansen
Affirm yourself right now. Doesn’t that feel good?
