More than knowledge

I’ve always been interested in the idea of what makes successful people so. I would imagine this line of thought has crossed the minds of most everybody, whether they are one of the successful ones or not.

One who has not experienced success in the extreme would likely tend to think that there is some kind of knowledge that enables the extremely successful to be as they are. Still there are the many examples of “ordinary” people suddenly becoming successful in the extreme.

Did they suddenly come in to that special knowledge? If you ask them, most will say no. A few will say that they learned from another who was successful. This is the idea we hear about in mentoring.

Obviously mentoring tends to have a great impact on the lives of many. There are numerous cases to show evidence of this. The subject of self-help/prosperity in books, audio, and video programs has exploded in recent years. This has really been fed by the release of the hit DVD, The Secret.

Many have really delved into these numerous books and programs. You might be amazed at how much free information is out there in cyberspace. If you look up any of The Secret teachers, you will find a wealth of free information. I would highly recommend you look into these sites if they interest you.

However, I would like to warn you also, that most people who come to these sites, as well as those who purchase a number of books and audio on the subject, are actually looking for is some real secret formula.

They are looking for something that will suddenly transform their life into a dream lifestyle. Does this magic formula exist? Well yes and no. I say yes because it seems like a secret. So few really understand it. The true answer is no. If you’ve read or heard pretty much any motivational speaker on the subject, you will have heard what it takes to succeed in life.

You likely thought that sounds great and proceeded to give it a go for awhile, and then slipped back into your old ways. This happens to probably more than 95 percent of the students of these programs, in general. Why? I can tell you why.

This is because the knowledge sounds so simplistic, too simplistic, actually. One gets motivated, until the habitual forces within begin to kick in again. When they do, the usual conditioned response is that the information was too fairy tale to work in the real world with all of its “real” problems. Does this sound familiar?

Well in truth there is nothing wrong with the information. It is definitely real and it is definitely that simple. Where we tend to fail is in understanding and applying the correct programming that we have in our minds. In short, it is that one must understand not just the keys to success, but the keys of reprogramming the mind to be successful. This does actually take time. It can be much smoother and quicker with a little help.

I’m going to let you in on something. I’ve been working on something really cool for the past seven months. It’s almost ready and you can bet I will let you know when it is. Yes, it will be another program but this program is going to be very personalized fro those who partake in it.

Of course this means it will have to be for a very limited number of people. However, this number will grow exponentially as the program takes off. Does this sound like something you might be interested in hearing more about?

If so, let me know and I will keep you informed. Or you can just keep watching this blog for updates. This is really something amazing, but I can’t tell you more at this time. Sorry. Keep smiling.


Take care,
