Do you ever get blank stares when trying to explain
your dreams to friends and family?
It's all to do with belief systems. Let me explain what I
learned in Jim Francis's amazing mind power research which
is so obvious, yet many of us miss it...
Everyone's mind is a result of a lifetime of cumulative
influences and experiences. E.g if you've been told as a
child that telepathy doesn't exist then you accept this
subconsciously as a fact. This is your inherent belief
about telepathy, not a fact... but you believe this to be
true.
If someone was to demonstrate that telepathy actually
exists, your subconscious cannot accept it. When proof is
offered to a skeptic they simply block it from their mind.
It's almost as if they skip to a different reality zone.
If you've tried to explain something new to someone and
they've developed a glazed look in their eyes, if their
attention drifts off, this could well be their mind
blocking out your information.
Some people just aren't as open minded as you.
Don't let disinterested or disbelieving friends and family
stand in your way of following your dreams. Maybe from their
perspective, successful people are just 'lucky'. It's
unlikely you'll change their belief system.
Let their skepticism motivate you to prove them wrong.
It can be a great motivator. Or try this…
Think about the most important BIG goal you’ve set
yourself. Think about how you’d like to be really motivated
to reach it, and to be really motivated to take action on
those smaller goals that will lead you there.
Now, think back to a time in the past when you were really
motivated. Think about how you took action on that
motivation and did whatever it was you set out to do.
Run through that event and make the pictures bigger,
brighter and more colourful. Feel what you felt and suck
that motivation into your body as if you were there now,
doing it again for the first time.
Make the emotions stronger and stronger, and keep building
up the feeling of taking action and successfully doing what
you set out to do. Run the story through your mind several
times, each time building the momentum.
Now, as your motivation builds up, rub the palm of your
dominant hand on your thigh. As you do so, think about even
more occasions when you were highly motivated and increase
those sensations even further.
Keep rubbing your thigh, and know that whenever you want to
call upon that highly motivated feeling, all you have to do
is rub your thigh.
Finally, while still rubbing your thigh, think about your
most important BIG goal and all of the smaller goals you
must complete to make it. Imagine reaching them with
everything going well, reaching that big goal right on your
deadline.
Can you see what we’re doing here? We are taking your
motivation – which you clearly have – and adding it first
to the motion of rubbing your palm on your thigh, and
secondly adding that motivation to the thought processes of
reaching your most important goal.
Now the great thing is that you can do that exercise for
every goal you set yourself. By imagining it all going
perfectly well and reaching every goal on time, you’re
increasing your self-belief and getting your motivation
flowing around your body.
And when you’re highly motivated and you take action on
that motivation then you’re much more likely to reach your
smaller goals which, in turn, breeds even more motivation.
If it helps, do that exercise a few times. You’ll soon feel
incredibly motivated and, when your motivation starts to
subside, rub your palm on your thigh to start bringing back
all of those amazin*g motivational feelings!
And if at any point in the future you find your
rub-your-thigh motivational trigger subsiding, simply do
the entire exercise again.
Still struggling to stay motivated? Here’s how I keep going…
My biggest motivation is fear. It's not the fear
of NOT achieving my dreams that scares me, it's imagining
a life where I knew my dreams were possible but giving
up on them. That's whats scares me the most.
That's what drives me on.
Many people live a life where their dreams died along with
their childhood. What was once a life filled with unlimited
possibilities, has now become a life of boredom and
mediocrity. By reading this article I know you're
different.
You've opened your eyes and your mind. You've discovered
your potential.
You can now choose a life of purpose and passion... or a life
filled with regrets.
Isn't that motivation enough?
