Break free and unleash your hidden power

When it really matters that power can be unleashed in dramatic fashion. There are thousands of stories of people finding super human strength to lift heavy objects to free trapped loved ones; tales of untold bravery and dedication against all the odds and examples of amazing fortitude in adversity.

That power, which is there in every one of us, simply needed the physical catalyst of a challenge or problem to make itself known. It was ready to spring into action to protect and support you and when that time came it was not found wanting.

If only you could mentally harness that power in your everyday life you would be invincible. No one would ever be able to harm or hurt you ever again because you would not allow it, you would have the ability to attract everything you needed or wanted in life because you would have control.

So what has happened to your power? When did you decide that you were not good enough? Why did you choose not to bother or try anything new in case you failed? Yes, it is you we are talking about so let’s find out why and start repairing the problem.

It begins by taking a close look at the company you are keeping. Have you surrounded yourself with people who demand very little from life, who seem content to put up with second best? Do these people constantly complain and are envious of others?

If the answer is yes then they are dragging you down to their level. They have long since given up on any of their aspirations and prefer to snipe from the side lines with negative phrases such as “money to money” or with similar cruel comments about someone’s looks or actions – you get the idea.

Just because they have given up and want to constantly complain about everything does not mean you have to - because inside every one of us is the heart of a Lion and when you act as if you really are the King or Queen of the jungle then you make up your own rules.

Avoid negative people and surround yourself with those that want to succeed, who want to encourage others. They do not envy success, but aspire instead to be the same. These people do not complain or criticise – they encourage and support.

When you surround yourself with positive thinking people then anything is possible. This positivity begins to rub off allowing you to be more successful in your job, better able to attract a loving partner.

You may of course have to overcome any feelings of inferiority. If you have surrounded yourself with negative people who have demanded so little of you then it might be difficult to begin with to feel comfortable with those who always expect to succeed.

It means you have to remind yourself that you are unique, that there is no one else on the Planet quite like you. No one else has your special talents or abilities and if you can be yourself then you will be accepted and welcomed anywhere.

Nothing has to happen overnight. Unlocking that special power can take a little while, especially if it has been hidden for some time so do not be too hard on yourself if you are venturing out into a new playground.

Remember your first day at school and how strange you felt and how long it took you to get used to new people and new surroundings – well you are about to do it all again – and if you have done it once before, then what is there to stop you.

You have to choose to break free or you will never get the opportunity to unleash the real power that is just waiting to help you create a better life. It is your decision and it starts now – so what are you waiting for.

Positive thinking starts with changing your habits

Many of us marvel at such people as they continue smiling through every adversity, confident that everything will eventually be resolved and success will be assured. Their positivity applies to all their material and emotional needs so as well as being financially secure, their home and personal lives seem equally as charmed.

These are the people who seem to have it all and right now you probably wish you could be just the same – well I am here to tell you that you can. Being a positive thinking person is no big secret, it is simply a way of life – to be more precise, it is a lifestyle choice and all it needs is a little bit of personal fine tuning.

Positive thinking people are successful simply because they are positive in everything they do. Let’s think about that for the moment because there are many who believe that positive thinking is all about imagining bright outcomes, making daily affirmations and so on – and while none of this does any harm it is NOT what real positive thinking is about at all.

To be that positive thinking person means taking a close look at the negatives that are currently cluttering up your life such as anger issues, unresolved problems and pessimism. How can you ever be the powerful positive thinking person if such things continue to dominate?

If you want to, you can stop reading right now because I have just given you the real secret of positive thinking. Get rid of all the negatives as you strive to be a better person and the rest will follow as sure as night follows day and you will be just like all the other successful people.

But surely it cannot be that easy – can it? The short answer is yes, but changing the habits of a lifetime is going to take a little bit more work on your part as you begin that fine tuning process and introduce positive actions into your life.

The first step is gratitude and being grateful and thankful for all the good things you already have instead of complaining about the stuff you dislike. Everyone understands that you would like to be richer, happier, more successful, but you are probably not starving right now, you may have food to eat and roof over your head and people that love you and if you think about it long enough you are incredibly fortunate and have many reasons to be thankful.

Once you start to appreciate what you already have, then you have laid the foundations for more of what you want to attract into your life. The Universe will recognise that you like what you have and will work with you to enhance and grow your expectations.

Stop right now and think of at least three things you are grateful for – that was not so hard, was it – and you have taken the first step, but you still have a little bit more work to do if you are going to be that powerful positive thinker.

Start looking at your day and think back at all the times you have allowed pessimistic thoughts to intrude, did you succumb to road rage or irritation with a colleague or member of your family, perhaps being a grouch is something that you do on a regular basis.

How many times have you complained or moaned about your circumstances? Did you allow yourself to listen to or spread malicious gossip? Did you openly envy another person? Have you been a bully and over stepped the mark when you know you should have been more restrained?

Positive thinking people are none of these. They are instead calm and measured. They keep their anger and negative opinions to themselves unless they are fully justified and when that happens, they recognise these real exceptions because they know there are some situations when you need to complain or feel angry, but equally know that there is a right time and place for such things – negative people are simply angry all the time.

Making those lifestyle changes are vital if you are ever to be a positive thinking person and only you can do it - and once you resolve to introduce positivity then the Universe will get the message. It likes the new you and is now ready to help you attract the things you really want – how good is that.

Positive thinking with no limitations

Nearly all of us want to be happier, more successful, and richer – but only it seems under certain conditions. We want more money, but not so much that others may notice our sudden increase in fortune, we want to be more successful, but not if it means that some may feel undermined, we want to be happier but how can we seen in that way when there are many who seem so sad.

The Universe places no such limitations. It is there to deliver everything you desire – you just have to ask. You are not being selfish by wanting the best of everything that life can throw in your direction because everyone on this Planet has the same opportunity as you – and there is more than enough to go around.

But how can that be when there are so many in poverty, when there are millions in this world without the necessary basics in life. We see it on the news on a daily basis via the global media – the have nots, those facing starvation and persecution – and we feel guilty and unworthy.

As these TV pictures come into our living rooms we forget that even the poorest on this diverse Planet thrive and prosper when they have the tools to do the job, to grow their own food and plan their own destinies.  When people have hope and opportunity they shape their own lives for the better – how many times have we seen refugees with nothing who turn themselves into multi-millionaires – it is human nature to want to prosper and succeed.

This is positive thinking in real action with people who have nothing and who want it all. For them there are no limitations, they have a vison and action plan and they are not prepared to put up with second best – so why should you.

Positive thinking should never come with conditions attached. It is not down to individuals to dictate to the Universe how rich, successful or happy they should be. Positive thinking works when you get the Universe and the Law of Attraction to work independently on your behalf.

Regular readers to this blog site will know that I always say you must use common sense and action to attract what you want in life and that frequently means going about the whole process using baby steps until you get the basics right.

In reality that could well mean in the beginning that you try to attract just a few hundred pounds or dollars into your life rather than going for the big prize in one hit. Being realistic means you are more likely to attract the small sums but as long as you never forget that the ultimate aim is to have it all, then you are not placing any limitations on you or the Universe.

The same rules apply to happiness or success. Go first for the small victories and these will encourage you to go after the bigger stuff. Never forget that everyone who has been successful had to take care of the basics first.

When you place limitations on positive thinking then you are really undermining the whole process and it can never work for you in the way that you would have hoped. You will be sending out confusing messages to the Universe.

You must be very clear about what you want to achieve and have faith that it will be delivered. You must also be prepared to take a little action – after all – even the Universe needs a little help from time to time and anything that will help you achieve your desires will be welcome.

You may of course still be feeling guilty or unworthy and only you can make that change. If you are finding it difficult then you can of course donate the money you have so that others can purchase the tools they need to change their lives.

That what billionaires like Bill Gates are doing and he is someone that really has it all. Just imagine what you could do if you had the same wealth – and if that is not a case for setting no limitations in your life -then I do not know what is.

Positive thinking and why you have to listen to the Universe

There are many stories of incredibly successful people who were multiple failures. Thomas Edison, who was considered to be the inventor of the telephone famously, went on record that he had failed at least 10,000 times before achieving his breakthrough. Col Sanders of Kentucky Fried Chicken fame tried to sell his renowned recipe more than 1,000 times before he could make progress.

Most of us would have given up long before, convinced that the Universe was trying to tell us something – and maybe it was – but did you misunderstand the signs. It’s a distinct possibility that you did just that – especially if you have practiced positive thinking.

Yes, you did read that correctly. When you adopt powerful positive thinking you create forces that few can really master and it is not unusual to receive conflicting and confusing messages and very often they seem the complete opposite of everything you are trying to achieve.

So let’s assume you have started your new project. You have a good idea of the goals and objectives, but it is all starting to go a little bit wrong. People do not seem as enthusiastic about your ideas as you had hoped, obstacles, where none existed before; now seem to have been placed in your path.

What is going on here, but more importantly – what is your reaction to all this perceived negativity? If you are ready to give up, convinced that your original idea was really a no hoper, then I guess that is the end of the story.

You are understandably bruised by the whole experience, it has probably cost you money that you can ill afford and right now you could well be wishing that you had never started on this new venture. So is that it then or might it just be worth another look – just in case?

I hope that “just in case” will win through because if you have practiced positive thinking throughout then you should not be too ready to give up just yet. Let’s assume that your idea was sound, let’s assume that you did a bit of market research, sounded out potential customers and that all the vibrations and feedback looked good.

If you did all that then your idea still has legs, but something is clearly still missing. In most cases that is what the Universe is really trying to tell you and instead of giving up you should be looking at the whole project again through a set of fresh eyes.

Were you too expensive, can you change your message, can you consider a different route to market, what about the look and the branding? A tweak here, a small alteration there has the potential to make a huge difference – and this is what successful entrepreneurs do all of the time.

I could make this list last for ever, but this is your venture we are talking about and only you know the kind of changes that are needed. That might mean asking for advice or help from a professional, it might need you to bring in an investor or partner – your decision.

When you practice positive thinking then the Universe will want you to succeed which is why it will put obstacles in your way. It is telling you that it likes the idea but it still needs a bit of work if you are going on to be a major success.

And if everything seems to be going wrong at the moment when all you should be seeing is green lights and success then maybe you need to listen to what the Universe is trying to tell you. That is what real positive thinking is really about.

So let’s get back to Thomas Edison and Col Sanders. They kept listening to the Universe and they never stopped trying and one day – all the obstacles evaporated as if by magic – and they will do so for you as well.

Just keep the faith and stay positive and let the magic happen.

Positive thinking means getting rid of “what if” syndrome

If this is striking a chord with you then it is probably because the exact opposite is happening in your life right now, no matter how hard you keep trying. Everything you start, every relationship, every new project seems to be a struggle and frequently ends in failure - and you have no idea why.

The most successful people never expect to fail and it is a skill that can be learned and more about that later, but that is only part of the story. Successful people do not make excuses, they do not create artificial obstacles and they do not invent mental barriers. These are the kind of things that make the difference between real success and failure and if you can learn to overcome them, then everything you want to accomplish in life can be yours.

So let’s start from the beginning. Ask yourself what happens every time you want to start something new. Are you visualising outcomes, can you see everything working out well, do you instantly identify all the benefits together with the joys and pleasures that these will offer?

The answer to that is almost certainly yes and based on that desire many people will embark on this new venture filled with optimism and hope and the certainty that this time they will really achieve and succeed at everything.

However, once the initial excitement has faded then many will then start to create the barriers that have always prevented them from succeeding in the past. Real success requires action, a key part of powerful positive thinking and this is when the excuses really start to kick in.

I call it “What If” syndrome and it goes something like this. What if I start that new job and I fail; what if this new relationship does not work; what if this new business means that I lose everything; what if I move and lose all my friends – you get the idea.

What if is the exact opposite of everything you want to achieve because it prevents you from going forward? You have created a synthetic fear factor where none existed before and you have effectively paralysed any chance of attracting the thing you want most from ever working out.

You have created excuses for doing absolutely nothing. You have identified the goals but now fear the possibility of attaining them because it has become a step into the unknown and you are now way outside your comfort zone.

Successful people who are used to winning go about things in a totally different way. They first identify what they want to achieve and then assess the risks – for them the “What If” syndrome comes in at the front end.

Before they decide to press the go button they create a strategy by looking at all the things that could go wrong and then make the decision based on real facts. If at that stage they decide that what they want is unlikely to work out then the idea is rejected and that is why successful people always seem to be on the winning side.

They have worked out that they will succeed once again because they have already discarded the excuses and fears and have now started taking real action to ensure that everything they want is delivered on time. They have also used buckets of common sense to keep their objectives realistic – another key factor when delivering powerful positive thinking.

Successful people start working on their goals once they have decided on a clear objective and while they may occasionally be hindered by unforeseen events that no one can really factor in, the odds are very much stacked in their favour.

It is however your choice. If you are comfortable making excuses then please do not envy or blame others. The only thing that is really preventing your success – is you – so what are you going to do about it.

Could this be the day when you stop making excuses?

Let positive thinking train your sub conscious

The mind acts like a sophisticated software programme for your sub conscious, the greatest computer ever devised and like computers everywhere it is totally devoid of all emotion and feeling and will do exactly what it is told.

Your brain and thoughts that develop in your imagination are passed down to the sub conscious ready to be delivered by the great Amazon of the Universe. There is no fail safe device – it will simply respond to what it receives.

So do not be surprised if everything falls apart around you when you keep filling up your sub conscious with negative thoughts. Computers – and that is what you sub conscious really is – take everything literally - and if it is negative information that it is receiving, then that is what you will get back.

No one of course expects you to walk around all day with a Pollyanna smile, yes you will get angry from time to time, you will have several negative thoughts or ideas – that is all part of being human and your sub conscious will recognise them for what they really are – just passing ideas.

It is the relentless day in, day out thoughts that constantly occupy your brain which are firmly impressed into your own personal computer. These thoughts are quickly identified as reality and then that in turn is what you will attract.

Positive thinking has the reverse affect. If you are constantly seeing your life as a success, if you always visualise yourself as a winner, a person who gets the job done, then that is what the sub conscious will receive and in turn – that is what it will deliver.

Not easy to do if you are in a dark place right now, but just think back for a moment when you have been confronted by some of your greatest challenges. Did they not pass in time? Did they not work out for the best and in hindsight – what would you do differently?

I am not talking about the passing of a loved one or a terminal illness. These are clearly life changing events which need to be dealt with in a totally separate way and only you can decide how such things should be handled.

We are looking instead at the day to day things we all have to face and you have a clear choice – complain about the situation you are facing and decide there really is no way out or choose to be strong and resolute, accept what has happened and then make positive plans for the future.

This means making a decision that you will be happy, that your life will improve, that all the bad things will soon be in the past. This means making new plans for the future and visualising yourself in a better place

Whatever you are facing right now will in time pass and it will happen a lot more quickly if you have a plan, a firm strategy that will help you from this dark place and back into the light where you really belong.

You can start now by reprogramming your sub conscious.  Start to focus on the good things that make you happy, see yourself as successful, prosperous and making a positive difference to the lives of others.

Use plenty of common sense and reality because there is no magic button that will change things overnight. These things have to be done gradually, a little at a time to undo all the negative programming – maybe stuff that goes back years.

This is because you have choice. When bad things happen to change your life you can choose to let them takeover or you can decide instead to fight back. Only you can make that decision and in my book it would always be the positive route – what do you think?

This is positive thinking in real action. This is the kind of stuff that will change your life on a permanent basis because we are creating a new you. Do not be confused with promises from some self-books that offer untold riches and success – real positive thinking is about changing lives for the better and that is what you are doing right now. You can concentrate on the other stuff when we have got you back to where you belong.

So if you are ready – then let it begin.

Positive thinking and New Year’s resolutions

You might as well give up now and save yourself all that stress. Why deny yourself something when it’s easier to carry on as before. Sorry, I did not catch what you said – “this time it’s different, this time I really want to succeed.”

But you said that last year and you are still a size 20, your gym membership was a waste of money, you are still in that bad relationship, still in that employment rut and you are still no nearer to solving those money problems.

It is your choice of course – this time it really can be different and it does not have to be hard work especially if you embrace positive thinking, but you must really want to make changes to your life and lifestyle.

If you do not want to give up smoking, you never will. If you do not really want to diet, you never will. If you really want to hang on to those tired old habits and relationships then what is the point of making a token gesture for a few weeks.

In such cases you will always make an excuse to stop your resolution. You will manufacture arguments with people, just so you can hear them tell you that you should forget all about your good intentions because it makes you moody.

Those are just the words you want to hear because it takes away all those feelings of guilt. You can convince yourself that you really are doing your best, but for the benefit of the people you love you are going to stop that resolution now. What a cop out – you failed again.

But you know the real truth, don’t you. You really do want to make those changes, but you simply do not have the strength or willpower to finish the job – if only you could get some real help you could definitely do it this time.

Well, here comes the good news. Help is on its way, if you want it. It comes in the form of Powerful Positive Thinking and it can help you succeed in delivering those vital New Year resolutions once and for all.

You do not have to set up mood boards or make constant affirmations. You do not have to work on positive thinking exercises and meditations. When you constantly focus on all these things there is the danger that you send out the wrong messages.

That great Amazon of the Universe misunderstands the order and sees that what you really want is very much lacking in your life and that’s what it will eventually deliver - lack, zip, nothing – and is the reason why so many fail to get any benefit from positive thinking.

To succeed you are going to use other tools like your imagination, common sense and action and if you get them in the right order, it can really work for you. So if you are ready – then we can get started.

You have to be sure exactly what you want to achieve and to do this you need to focus your thoughts and write down in much detail as possible your goals and ambitions.  There are other blogs on this website which explain at length the correct way of doing this – but in short make sure you get your specification or order to the Universe as precise as possible. By doing this you will be certain what you want to achieve rather than simply having a woolly idea about possible changes.

Once that has been done and you are sure that it is exactly what you want, then you must destroy the paper as dramatically as possible. You are metaphorically sending an e-mail to the Universe – and do not worry – because your order has been received.

You must now forget all about that order. If you keep returning to it then it will never be delivered. Focus instead on your imagination. Visualise how healthy and attractive you will be, how much richer you have become. This is your dream we are talking about here so let your imagination run riot as if your dream has already been turned into reality.

Support your imagination with action. Join that gym, take more walks, look at ways to save or earn more money, become more sociable so you can meet others – by simply taking action you are oiling the wheels and helping the Universe.

Yes, there may still be times when you are wavering and that’s where common sense comes in. Keep it realistic, keep it happening a little bit at a time, keep your imagination going and then one day – as if by magic – you would have succeeded.

Now that’s what I call a new year’s resolution.
