Learn To Smuggle Success and Prosperity Into Your Mind

Do you ever feel that some parts of yourself are fighting against your best efforts? That they’re holding you back from achieving your goals?  The part of self that most people have the greatest problem with is the “border guard” in charge of keeping you inside your comfort zone. In fact, it’s common to hear people refer to their guard as some kind of enemy or mindless adversary.

But he (or she) isn’t an enemy. It’s just trying to do the job it’s been given. It hasn’t been very well trained in the past, however, so it’s grown a bit meddlesome over the years. It almost certainly needs a bit of re-educating, but it is basically a well-meaning friend.

Remember this: every part of your self is a friend, and not an enemy — ever. It’s only our incomplete understanding that leads us to divide our self up into enemy camps. If you have an immovable block or obstacle that you just can’t get past, it’s often because of this border guard in your mind, and your testy relationship with it.

Let’s say you need to increase your income, but every way you turn seems blocked. Nothing you try ever works, and you continue to be short of money.  Well, you might want to stop trying to figure it out. In fact, stop looking for a solution altogether. After all, nothing in your outer life is going to change until something inside your mind changes. Finding a “solution” will remain basically impossible until you find permission to HAVE what you desire.

HERE’S THE TRICK: INSTEAD OF STRUGGLING, TRY SMUGGLING.

You can stop struggling to take a step or two outside your comfort zone. Just use your power of imagination to bring new situations inside the zone. This is a non-threatening way to smuggle in new ideas and effectively brainwash your border guard.

In a surprisingly short time, it starts thinking that all this new stuff is a natural part of “it’s” territory, and it’ll begin forcing you to stay inside with all this happiness, prosperity and success.

If you have problems that you’ve been unable to figure out after years of thinking, then more years of thinking won’t produce significantly different results. This is a glaring indicator that you’ve been pouring your energies into the wrong activity.

You see, deciding how the problem gets solved isn’t really your job. Your job is to mentally imagine a new situation where the “problem” is completely behind you. It has already been solved. Imagine this vividly and often. It’s the Universe’s job to come up with the how and the when.

Doesn’t matter how impossible a situation seems. The Universe has resources and connections you and I could never dream of. So your job is to simply place your order. Do this by dwelling on your future vision, not the path TO that vision.

Just remember, it’s the Universe’s job to create the path that leads to what you desire. It’ll bring you opportunities that you probably never expect nor imagine. But you do have to put in your order. Do that by clearly imagining what you desire. Simply that.  In effect, you’re smuggling in new “facts” about what belongs inside your comfort zone.

In a surprisingly short time, your border guard will allow you to take the steps that the Universe places before you.  But when imagining your future vision, just always be sure to add the insurance phrase, “do this or something better in ways that are for the highest good of me and everyone involved.”  This makes sure you get solutions that are gentle rather than jarring or abrupt.

I want to see you putting your energy into imagining your result, your outcome, not your problem. Start smuggling in your new future vision and let the Universe build you a path to that exact, specific future.
Do this and see if you notice a dramatic change of your fortunes!

What Does It Mean To Be An Internet Marketer?

There’s no diploma you can strive for to be in the Internet marketing industry. You have to learn as you go – on your own – soaking up information along the way.  The first thing you need to know is what it means to be an Internet marketer, because it isn’t always clear to everyone.

Let’s start with what Internet marketing is not.  It’s not being a con artist. It’s not being a spam king.  It doesn’t just mean selling on eBay or having your own website and products.

In reality, Internet marketers can pick and choose from a whole host of options available to help them make money.  Your opportunities are virtually endless, and include one or more of the following:

  • Selling digital downloads (information products like eBooks)
  • Promoting other people’s products for a commission (affiliate marketing)
  • Selling on eBay or other auction sites
  • Running a membership site
  • Selling your online services (writing, graphics, etc.)
  • Owning a website that sells dropshipped or wholesale items

And this is just the tip of the iceberg.  Being a newcomer to Internet marketing, you might be worried that you don’t have anything to sell.  That’s okay – most people don’t start out with anything, and you never have to stock a tangible inventory if you don’t want to.  That’s the beauty of Internet Marketing, flexibility, you are in control and you choose what and how you will run your online business.

Internet marketing creates no gender or age boundaries for you.  There are teenagers who have launched multi-million dollar companies as budding Internet marketers whose ideas sprung to life and catapulted them to instant success.

You don’t have to do anything unethical or shady to succeed at Internet marketing, and in fact, launching a respectable business with a solid reputation is the secret ingredient that will allow you to hatch an empire on the ‘net to fulfill all of your dreams and those of your family.  The sky is the limit!

Use These 5 Powerful Mind Success Strategies To Create Abundant Prosperity In 2010

Building a business is a fantastic and challenging experience.  You wake up exhilarated to begin your day and you can go to bed feeling overwhelmed and frustrated.  The key to success is to maintain a positive, yes you can do it, mindset.

Easier said than done, right?  Here are 5 keys to help you create and sustain a positive mindset so you too can attain the abundance and prosperity you desire.

1. Surround yourself with successful and positive people.  This is so true, the influence people have over our own personal energy is amazing. Moods and attitudes are so easily spread – think about how much of a difference a simple smile from a stranger can make for your day and then magnify it 1000 times to demonstrate the power of positive and successful friends, family and associates.  When you have people around you who inspire you, believe in you and want you to succeed, there’s no room for doubts and even when they creep up, they’re quickly swept away.

2. Create a mantra or an affirmation.  Repeating positive affirmations has been shown to get people through tough times and to actually help them truly believe what they’re saying.

For example, “I am building a powerful and profitable business.”  Many of the most esteemed business professionals have used the same affirmation strategy to attain their success.  To find the right affirmations for you, consider writing a quick list of your doubts, insecurities and complaints.  These can then be quickly turned into affirmations.

For example, if you write that you’re always feeling disorganized then your affirmation would be, “I am organized and in control.”  Repeat your affirmations several times a day and feel the power of positive thinking.

3. Capture negative thoughts.  We all have negative thoughts from time to time, however, negative thoughts and emotions can derail us and prevent us from achieving all we desire.  Of course catching those negative thoughts takes practice and persistence.  When you find yourself thinking negative thoughts or having negative emotions, find a trigger to turn them around.  The affirmations mentioned above are a great way to turn the negative into the positive.  You can also find quick pick me ups like a favorite song, a walk outside in the fresh air, or some exercise to help improve your mood.

4. Set goals/intentions and then be willing to let it go.  The law of attraction says that we attract what we focus on the most.  However, desperation, needing your business to be a success, sends mixed messages and a lot of negativity into the universe.  Set your goals and intentions and then let them go.  A certain amount of faith in yourself and in the power of attraction is necessary.  Give it a try.

5. Be grateful.  Gratitude is perhaps the single most powerful and positive tool for success.  When you’re grateful for all of the wonderful things and people in your life, the challenges you face seem significantly less important and are more easily dealt with.

Consider keeping a gratitude journal and make a practice of entering into it daily.  That way, when you’re facing challenges a quick peek at all the amazing things in your life will make you feel as if you can tackle anything.   Additionally, an attitude of gratitude helps you maintain a positive perspective and to face challenges as opportunities rather than obstacles.

Success is within your reach and with the right attitude you can accomplish anything you set your sights on.  Embrace these five powerful mind success strategies and you’ll build a better business and live a happier, more satisfying life.

Manifesting Abundance in Your Business Life

We all know somebody who seems to always get it right. No matter what happens the person seems to always land on their feet. While others are treading carefully so they will not step on land mines, this person is coasting through life and doing just fine. In other words they are manifesting abundance.

The good news is that the Law of Attraction teaches us that manifesting abundance is something everyone can learn with practice. The person in the above example has simply become so good at attracting good things that it comes to them naturally. So can it be with you as well. I know it has worked for me. Since I have put the Law of Attraction to work in my life I have attracted so many good things.

We attract good into our lives. This includes the abundance and prosperity that comes from a home business. If you wish to work at home and the thought of making money online appeals to you, then believe that it can happen for you. This is not simply the power of positive thinking but it is instead a law of the universe that has worked for centuries. The great news is that it is still working today and it can work for you as easily as it worked for me! We are both a part of the same universe after all!

You need to redefine your present reality and create for yourself the reality that you want for yourself. Do this by focussing on having what you want in life. Stop focussing on the “have nots” of life. Realize that the hope for a successful home based business is within your grasp. Of course it will involve a great deal of work and commitment but whether it is weeks, months or years down the road, it is possible! Trust in the wise ways of the universe and make your dreams come true!
