Perhaps, you have notice that I am suggesting a three pronged approach to getting what you want. One prong is filling your mind with quality positive inspirational material daily. To read, listen, watch material that stimulates you and inspires you toward feeling and thinking better.

This prong includes practicing gratitude and looking for the positive, the good and the new in your daily life and validating these. It means finding the very best thoughts and feelings you can enjoy and promoting more of these as much as you are able through out each moment.

The second prong is actually the most important. It is what you do. It is deciding what you want, writing it down and focusing on it day in and day out. It is infusing this with energy and acting as if it is already the case. It means staying focused on what you want no matter what the current situation may be like.

It is believing you are going to make it happen no matter what. It is using dynamically energized repetition of thought. This is where you lay claim to your future and your keep your thoughts on having this (acting as you already have it in your mind) and reciting what you wrote down day and night. Visualizing the goal in your mind as though you already made it happen.

How we get what we want and become what we want to be is by doing not the mental work and not by the reading and listening.  The reading and listening, the first prong, keeps us inspired and positively charged and enthusiastic.

It is through the mental and verbal repetition of your your goal, through the repeated envisioning of what you want that brings it about. You make it happen by focusing the power of your mind. When you spend the time mentally and physically doing what it takes to get what you want you will manifest those results.

I have mentioned that whenever you discover that you are off course you bring your mind gently back to the positive thoughts you are repeating daily. You stay focused on what you want to create and off what you don’t yet have. Ignore the lack or current results and stay focused on what you will have in the future. Keep your mind targeted on what you want.

I have suggested finding and feeling grateful as much as possible through out the day. I told you about looking for and validating what is good and new. In previous posts I have discussed going first and positively thinking about others they way you want them to think about you.

Each of these pieces are part of the whole and the whole is much greater than the sum of its parts. As you do each of these things you will change.

I suggest reading and listening as a good starting place to begin to move forward but it is what you do with what you learn that transforms you. So remember, if you want to get different results you have to do different things. You have to make these positive practices daily practice so that they become a habit.

I mentioned that you visualize clearly what you want and charge it with emotions, feel good about it, shout about it, sing it, dance it, get excited about it so that your unconscious mind (the servo mechanism) works to manifest what you want.

The servo mechanism carries out whatever is emotionally charged whether positive or negative, wanted or unwanted. Whatever is predominant in your mind and being is what you manifest. If your thoughts are primarily negative or doubtful or defeatist that is what you end up creating for yourself. The servo mechanism doesn’t care what it creates. It only creates what you you give it to create.

If you think powerful positive thoughts, if you have a goal that you want more than anything else, something that you must have, and you see it clearly and feel good about it, joyful, happy, determined, and confident then you will manifest it because that is what you keep predominantly in your mind. If you are sometimes positive and sometimes negative you are stuck without much forward movement.

You will travel in whatever direction you are currently embracing. If you want to change you have to change what you are doing. You have to change direction and commit to keep on moving in the new direction.

Some people wonder why it is necessary to do this. Some think it too hard. I say, if you don’t like the result you have in your life you have to do something else to get the results you desire. That is just the way it is. Call it a law. You get back what you put out there. You become what you predominantly think about. You get what you go after.

If you don’t have a purpose, or a target, if you are not committed to the direction you want to travel in you will get haphazard results. You will end up wherever you end up. Liken it to being a drift in a boat. You will go wherever the current takes you.

But if your boat is powered and your course is set, then no matter what the elements do to prevent you, at least you are headed toward the destination you want.

You have to go after what you want repeatedly and stick with it until you get it. That is the law. That is just the way it is. You create what you want using your own power through your own volition and dedication.

It is your choice. Either you do it or you don’t. Whatever you choose is what you get. It is up to you and no one else what you do or what you don’t do to have the ideal life you want to have.

Actions are important however, I am not suggesting working more or working harder at your job or your career. That is not what I am suggesting at all. I am suggesting you work to govern your thoughts and make them work for you. Take charge of your thoughts and your feelings so your actions are in harmony with what you want for yourself. It is working smarter not working harder.

The third prong is belief. It is your faith in yourself and your abilities. When you take charge of your thoughts and energize your feelings and repeat this daily at least twice a day (more is better) you find that you begin to believe even more strongly that you can have this. If you don’t believe it at first (discussed in previous posts) you can develop the belief necessary by the practice or repeating over and over again that you can and will have it.

A goal is a dream with a plan and deadline. When you know what you want and by when, and you take claim of it in your mind and see yourself as if already in possession of it, and you feel fully emotionally charged about that, you are sending powerful messages to your unconscious that this IS yours. As you do these things you will come to believe in it even more. The more YOU are convinced of it the closer you are to making it happen.

Because of media in our culture we know that a lie repeated often enough is substituted as the truth.The military uses this in training troops. You keep telling yourself the same thing over and over again in a super charged way until you believe it. When you believe you deserve it and that you can get it AND when you believe it is yours, it IS yours.

‘What we can conceive and believe we can achieve’, said Napoleon Hill. ‘Whether you think you can or you think you can’t you are right’, stated Henry Ford. ‘You become what you think about most of the time’, stated Earl Nightengale. You can be and do and have whatever you want when you believe you can.

Positive thinking means maintain a preponderance of positive thoughts and feeling throughout the day. It does not mean emotionless recitation of platitudes. It means becoming what you want to be. Is it work, yes, but it is worth it.

Think of it as boot camp for your mind. You engage in a training to learn a skill that will reliably transform your life when you apply it.

Start today and commit to the direction you want to move in. Commit to the destination you want and never give up until you arrive.

Make the journey wonderful along the way by finding good and new things each moment and filling your moments with appreciation. Think the highest positive thoughts about everyone.

When you do this you up your vibrations. You up your vibratory rate and you attract like energy. You attract positive people who can help you and you find yourself open to more events and situations that benefit you. Your life transforms and new doors open up to you. Yes, it is a great deal! On top of it life becomes more and more amazing every day!” Rex Sikes

Make a marvelous day for yourself and others.
