Seminars Don’t Work!

This might sound like a strange idea especially coming from someone that has had seminars in the past and has attended approximately 100 different seminars and has invested tens of thousands of dollars in travel, accommodations, and products.
Let me explain why I believe that seminars don’t work. First of all, to radically change your life instantly or over the course of a couple of days you would need an event with extreme emotional impact to move you. An example of this would be a doctor telling you that if you eat one more french fry you will die instantly. If you believed him/her and you cared about yourself at all you would be done with fries.
The problem we have is that we are conditioned to move away from the negative things rather than move toward the positive things. Most people would rather avoid experiencing pain than moving to a new and better life. Here’s a quick test. Which situation provides you with the most emotion? You have $10,000 in your possession and someone is trying to steal it from you. How hard will you fight to keep it? Or, you could spend 1 hour a week learning how to utilize your mind and understanding how you function and possibly earn an additional $25,000 this year.
Immediately 90% of the people reading this will say to themselves “I could never make an extra $2000/mth” or “I’m too busy to spend 1 hour a week working on myself”. Ask and you shall receive. You see the masses are controlled by their paradigms and these paradigms were built very early on when you didn’t even have the chance to study them and ask yourself if they were true. 95% of who you are was built by the time you were 18!
This is why seminars don’t work. The only way to change a pattern is through constant spaced repetition, associating with like-minded individuals, studying yourself and building an understanding that the latest tool will not change your life because this attacks the effect and not the root cause which originates in the mind.
Review the Cone of Learning and you will see that discussion with peers and action steps are the best ways to retain the knowledge!
In the next couple of weeks, we will be launching an 8-week course that will be delivered online once a week and will be recorded for your benefit so that you can replay it as many times as you want. You will be able to network with like-minded people, learn why you do what you do and how to change it and gain conscious control over your life. The material covered will incorporate everything that Bob Proctor has taught me over the last two years.

Preparation and focusing on your goal

“Circumstances may cause interruptions and delays, but never lose sight of your goal. Prepare yourself in every way you can by increasing your knowledge and adding to your experience, so that you can make the most of opportunity when it occurs.’”
Mario Andretti
Auto Racer
This is a great quote from the legendary Mario Andretti because it highlights one of the great lessons in goal achieving. Having a clear picture of your goal gives you focus and as you refine your goal it is like using binoculars. The more you think about it the clearer it becomes in your mind and the more energy and intensity you gain from it. It begins to pick you up when you are down!
Let go of how you are going to get there and be like a stream that never struggles but instead adapts and moves around the obstacles. The key to success is to let go of your rational, linear a-b-c-d-e-f…z plan. Set your goal (Z) go as far as you can go, adapt along the way because the universe will always point you in the direction that is the quickest way for you to achieve success. If you don’t listen and continue to resist because you had it in your mind that it would happen a-b-c-d-e-f… then you will not only take a long time to reach your goal if you ever do, but you will be in a constant mental struggle that will discourage you.
Remember: “What you resist persists and what you fight you strengthen.” Be the stream and let your life flow naturally enjoying the journey along the way.
To your success!

Celebrate your successes

“The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there is in life to celebrate.”
Oprah Winfrey
TV Personality, Producer and Author
I love this quote because what Oprah is really talking about is one of the key 6 Intellectual Faculties that all successful individuals have in any vocation and that is MEMORY. Of course we all have a memory but you will find that the top performers use their memory properly.
Choosing to remember all the times that things have worked out. You closed the sale, graduated high school, got the dance with that girl, manifested a free coffee… By choosing to remember successes and not so called failures (although I don’t believe in failure just lessons) you gain conscious control over your emotional state. To put it in Law of Attraction terms, you gain control of your vibration.
Your vibration is the frequency you are broadcasting. If you want to know what you are broadcasting or attracting ask yourself this simple question: “How do I feel right now”. Your feelings are your guide as to what is coming to you. If you have good vibrations keep those positive thoughts coming, if they are not so positive then congratulate yourself for becoming aware of them and change them!
Remember and celebrate your successes, let the negative ones serve as positive lessons and observe how quickly your life will change!
To your success!
