Simple Strategies to Attract Your Dream Job
Written by Jerry on February 26, 2010 – 6:14 am -Simple Strategies to Attract Your Dream Job
If you don’t already have your dream job, what’s holding you back from the job you deserve? You’ll soon discover that you can no longer make excuses because the time to attract your dream job is now!
It doesn’t really matter what your end goal is, there are always ways to get there. The only real decision you need to make is what you want to go after. After that, it’s all planning and implementing!
Use these simple strategies for attracting your dream job:
1. Learn by example. Do you know of someone who is doing what you dream of? Are there any role models, mentors, or coaches you can learn from? Study what others have done and ask them questions if you have the opportunity. Now that you already know what you want, you just need to figure out exactly how to get it!
2. Break it down. While you’re keeping your eye on the prize, you might be taking too much in at once. You also may be trying to accomplish too much too fast. Break down your dream goal into smaller mini-goals. Once you have a simplified plan in place, attack each mini-goal with your full attention and you’ll be chipping away slowly, but surely at your dream goal!
3. Get your foot in the door. In the long run, it’s better for you to take the first step toward your dream job, rather than working a dead end job, even if the dead end job is paying you more. If you can bear working for less money for a while, the long-term benefits will be worth it.
4. Work on communication. If you work on your communication and people skills, you can work toward nearly any job that you want. This is because you’ll get your points across clearly and become well respected.
5. Make yourself stand out. It always helps if you’re seen as the type of person that will go the extra mile. If there’s a specific job that you’re interviewing for, study the objectives and duties of the job carefully. Make sure you have the qualities and skill set they’re looking for, and if you don’t, show that you’re willing to take the initiative to acquire them.
6. Take action. There may be a number of things that are holding you back from truly going for your dream job. Identify these causes and eliminate them. What are you afraid of? What is in the way of you and your dreams?
Your Dreams Take Time
It may take time for you to attract your dream job. Chances are your dream job isn’t an entry-level position at your local McDonald’s, but perhaps you’ll want to own a restaurant someday.
In order to make this goal a reality, realize that your dreams take time, research, guidance, money, and a whole lot of effort. After all, no restaurant opened overnight!
So what can you do today to get started on your goal? Perhaps you can begin your research, locate a mentor, start a savings account, or do any number of other simple tasks that will help you build momentum.
Use these strategies whenever possible to help you attract your dream job. With consistent action and effort, the only way to go is up!

Learning to Accept Yourself
Written by Jerry on February 12, 2010 – 6:17 am -
You may be surprised at how many people lack the ability to accept themselves for who they are. Many people are able to put on a front so they appear self-confident when they really aren’t.
Even if you’re one of these people, you can learn how to accept yourself. If you’re suffering from low self worth and confidence, you really do have the ability to turn things around!
Why It’s Important To Accept Yourself
It’s important to accept yourself because that alone can mean the difference between a life of happiness and a life of sadness. When you accept yourself, you’re more likely to accomplish more in your life.
Self-acceptance can be seen as a foundation for using the Law of Attraction. After you accept yourself, you can begin to believe that good things are possible for you.
Steps To Acceptance
There are so many methods to learn self-acceptance, and you’ll soon find your own unique way of getting there.
In the meantime, try a few of these:
1. Mistakes are natural. Sometimes you may try too hard to be perfect. Allow yourself to make mistakes because you’re human. You’ll make small mistakes and big mistakes in life, but its how you bounce back from them that’ll make all the difference.
2. Live in the present. The reason you haven’t accepted yourself could be that you’re living your life in the past. Maybe you’re unable to forgive yourself for something you have done or a certain trait that you have. Getting over the past is an important step to build confidence and hope for a brighter future.
3. Avoid comparison. Others have different skills, physical traits and life experiences, which may make you envious. Come to terms with the fact that you don’t have what they have. However, on the bright side, there are many things that you do have that they don’t.
• Each and every person is unique. Be grateful for what makes you different from others, as this is part of your own inner beauty!
4. Be comfortable in your own skin. Sometimes you don’t want to accept yourself because of the way you look. Society puts some serious pressure on people to look and dress certain ways. Remember that people in magazines are can be unhealthy and are usually airbrushed and you shouldn’t strive to look like them. Instead, focus on your positive attributes and overall health. There is nothing wrong with wanting to look as good as YOU can – not as good as someone else does.
5. Think positive thoughts. One of the most important things on the journey to accepting yourself is learning to think positively. It’s easy to forget how much power there is in thought. Use many positive affirmations many times a day until your thoughts are predominately positive.
Take these strategies to heart because, once you learn to accept yourself, you’ll find the Law of Attraction working almost on autopilot!

I’m Thinking…But I’m not Growing Rich!
Written by Jerry on January 22, 2010 – 4:14 am -
"I’m Thinking…But I’m not Growing Rich!"
Guest Article by Bob Doyle
So you’ve read "Think and Grow Rich", and you’ve got an intellectual understanding that you "become what you think about". You have a list of affirmations about wealth, and you recite them every day.
But you still have no money. Wealth doesn’t seem to be anywhere around.
What’s the deal here? According to Napoleon Hill, you ought to be filthy stinkin’ rich, right?
Well, here’s the real deal: If you’re not "Wealth Conscious", than all this thinking, and all this affirming isn’t going to bring you wealth. Thinking, and affirming are simply actions you’re taking. But they are just PART of the sequence of creating wealth. If you skip the FIRST step, you simply can’t get anywhere.
So what’s the first step?
Being.
To attract wealth, you first have to BE wealthy. THEN, you think wealthy thoughts, speak wealthy affirmations, and take wealthy action.
"But how can I BE wealthy if I’m NOT wealthy?" you ask. Logical question, but it’s based on the false assumption that you don’t have wealth. You HAVE wealth. You’re simply not aware of it. You have constructed a physical reality that prevents you from experiencing Wealth. This can all be explained with the science of Quantum Physics.
So let’s look at some very basic concepts of Quantum Physics that will explain what I’m talking about.
First, you probably are aware – at least on an intellectual level – that at a subatomic level, we, and everything else in the Universe, is Energy. When you break everything down, we’re all made of the same stuff, and we’re all connected. The Universe is just this huge ocean of Energy, vibrating at various frequencies which gives the illusion of individuation. That is, we experience the illusion of separateness from each other, physical objects, and wealth because our "senses" are decoding the Energy around us in such a way as to create our physical reality.
This all happens in our thoughts.
So, to simplify things quickly here for the sake of time (another illusion), "things" only exist because we observe them. It is in our observing that things come into existence. Without our observing, things are simply "waves" – probabilities of existence. Physicists agree on this.
Our beliefs are a very powerful Energy system in our lives. Our beliefs allow or disallow certain experiences in our lives, including wealth.They make up who we are. We "BE" in the world according to our beliefs. If we are being is "someone who is trying to get wealthy by repeating affirmations", then THAT is what our reality will be. We will just be TRYING to get wealthy.
We have to make the decision that we ARE wealthy, contrary to any external physical evidence. That evidence is an illusion based on the belief systems that have guided who we have been being up to that point.
A truly wealthy person isn’t wealthy because they have money. They have money, because they are wealthy! That’s the distinction that most people have backward!
Here’s an example to illustrate what I mean:
Tony Robbins became a millionaire at a very young age. Then, due to a series of poor judgments, he lost it. But within a year, he had it back. How did he do this? HE NEVER LOST HIS WEALTH. He only lost his money, which is just a symbol of wealth! Because he is "Wealth Conscious", he literally "magnetically attracts" wealth into his life. He truly can’t help it! It’s who he is! And there are thousand out there like him, who attract wealth simply because it’s who they are. You can make the same decision and have the same results.
Conversely, a person who has grown up with "lack consciousness" can win millions in the lottery and lose it within a year. Their consciousness – their ENERGY – simply can’t maintain the attraction to Wealth because they aren’t "wealthy" in who they are being.
But again, Wealth is a decision. If you aren’t currently experiencing wealth, you first need to realize that abundance is everywhere…in fact it’s all there is. Poverty and lack are the illusions. You can shift your consciousness to Wealth – BE Wealth – by simply making the decision, THEN your thoughts, speech, and action will allow you to experience the wealth that is yours!
This is indeed a complex subject which challenges our core belief systems. But it is those very belief systems that keep a person in a state of lack.
Look at your financial situation today. Look at your core beliefs about Wealth and You, and see if your life isn’t a PERFECT reflection of your beliefs. Then, look where those beliefs may have originated. When you can awaken to yourself that your beliefs create your reality, rather than the other way around, you have the option to truly be free to experience a reality of prosperity that you deserve!
Bob Doyle is the CEO and founder of Boundless Living and the developer of the "Wealth Beyond Reason" program, which provides a continuing education of the physics of wealth, abundance, and joyous living through the Law of Attraction. Wealth Beyond Reason

Attracting Your Million Dollar Idea
Written by Jerry on January 1, 2010 – 1:09 pm -So many of us struggle day after day. We are so caught up in the rat-race that we can barely come up for a breath of fresh air. But, there is hope. I want to show you how to attract your Million Dollar Idea.
And, yes you DO have one!
We all are here for a reason. We all have something unique that only we can offer the world. We are not here to fear, struggle, or suffer. We are here to live life to the max! You may disagree but, according to Wallce D. Wattles, you need money to enjoy life to the fullest.
So, let’s discover Your million dollar idea now.
The Old School Way
Make a list of things you know about and traits you have. You can list things that you have specific knowledge about and things you have general knowledge about but, a keen interest in. You try to narrow the list down into some things you think are worth money in the market place.
The Easier Way
I want to show you a way that is even simpler, but you must be willing to put in the effort and remain alert for the answer to show up.
Choose a time when you can spend about 30 minutes alone. Choose a nice quiet place and sit down. Relax. Close your eyes and breathe deeply and slowly for about 2 or 3 minutes.
Once you are relaxed say out loud, "I have a million dollar idea, right here and right now inside me. I am ready for my million dollar idea to reveal itself to me." Take 3 slow deep breaths and repeat the statement with emotion. Take 3 more slow deep breaths and repeat it with even more emotion. Finally, take 3 more deep breaths and whisper the statement aloud. Relax for a few minutes and then go back to your daily life.
You have put your positive intention out into the universe. Now become aware of the little details of your life that might reveal your million dollar idea. Pay attention to conversations. Pay attention to books or articles you come across. Pay attention to opportunities to serve others that you may have missed before. PAY ATTENTION! Your idea could show up at any time in many different ways.
Keep a little notebook with you to jot down ideas. Have you heard somebody complaining that they can’t seem to find a particular product or service? Do you hear people saying things like "I wish I could find a good…."? You never know what might be a clue. Look for a pattern based around a certain idea or need that others have, even if you don’t know how you could fill that need yet.
You see, some of the best million dollar ideas may not be cool or trendy stuff. Millions and millions are made every year with boring stuff like light bulbs, toilet paper, pencils, coat hangers, place mats, staples ect. They are just simply things that other people need or want.
The simplicity of this exercise is deceiving and it’s very powerful! Try this for 30 days and maybe you won’t come up with a million dollar idea but, what if you came up with an idea worth $50,000 or $100,000? Not a bad way to spend your time, right?

Visualize Your Field of Dreams
Written by Jerry on December 11, 2009 – 4:04 am -Visualize Your Field of Dreams
Instead of focusing on a problem that you want changed, imagine the situation or condition as you really want it to be.
The idea is simple and, fortunately, so is the method. Anyone can do it, anywhere, at any time, with great results. Visualization is one of the most powerful methods for attracting what you desire.
In a very real sense, your fantasies are your realities – good ones and bad ones. What you imagine is what will be in the future. To quote the movie Field of Dreams, "If you build it, they will come." It’s never too late to imagine something new, even if you have been stuck in a rut for a long time.
The process of visualization is simple, and it doesn’t require any esoteric knowledge or special equipment. If you can find a quiet place to do it, all the more better; if you can’t don’t worry much about it. You can do it on the bus, if you want. If you can arrange to be uninterrupted while you do it, great; if not, it isn’t a problem. You can do it with your eyes closed or open. You can do it sitting, standing, laying down, or running.
All you need to do is create a visual picture of what you want, not what you don’t want. Create a visual picture of the condition, circumstance, or situation as perfectly as you want it to be. Once you have a clear mental picture of the ideal situation, be sure to place yourself right in middle the image. Be part of the scene.
Want to make it work even better and faster?
Visualization is much more effective when coupled with positive emotions. So, once you’ve begun visualizing the way you want something to be – whether it’s your physical condition or your life circumstances – next allow yourself to start feeling the emotions associated with this ideal scene.
Feel what it’s like to have what you want. Feel like you already have it now – perfect health, the relationship you’ve always wanted, that new house, that better job, better health – whatever it is, really FEEL the emotions you know you’ll have when whatever it is, becomes your reality.
The visualization is the way to send request into the universe; the positive emotions are the way you get yourself in alignment with your desire and the way you allow the possibility of what you’ve visualized into your present reality.
It’s a three-step process:
1. Visualize your desire, with yourself in it;
2. Feel how it feels to have that desired reality here and now;
3. Repeat often.
Abraham-Hicks, co-authors of "Ask And It Is Given", and facilitators of the "Art of Allowing" workshop claim that if you can focus on a single visual image for 17 seconds straight, you’ve effectively put your request out into the Universe.
Is that true? Why not try it for yourself and find out?
