When my wife, Donna, and I decided it was time to look for a new apartment we encountered many of the same anxieties and struggles that most people go through during the apartment hunting process. We were straining and pushing against the universe trying to find a suitable place. Nothing seemed to be working. The ‘right’ apartment kept eluding us. The law of attraction didn't seem to be working at all.

Until we figured out what we were doing wrong.

We were enjoying a nice dinner at a restaurant with Donna’s mentor, Deb, and her husband, Wayne. The conversation turned to our search for a new apartment, when it suddenly struck me. It was as if a lightning bolt had hit me between the eyes. I knew instantly why we were struggling to find the apartment we wanted.

We had been ignoring the very first principle of manifesting - we weren’t clear on what we wanted.

Donna and I had been talking around and around the whole situation for some time. We had discussed all the various wants and needs that we were looking for, but we never actually narrowed down our focus and said, “This is what we want!”

Once I realized we were missing that important first step of the manifesting process I knew that we would have to make some strong decisions about what we wanted before we could expect to manifest the apartment that fit our vision.

It turns out that it the law of attraction works no matter which direction you decide to point your life. In fact, it is just as easy to attract mediocrity and failure into your life as it is to attract excellence and success.

So, with that in mind, I created a short little list for those of you who are tired of struggling toward your dreams and are ready to crawl back into the safety of your comfort zone. Each of these tips is guaranteed to help keep success away, and each has been recommended by leading experts in the fields of failure and disappointment.

1. Buy self help books but don’t finish reading them.

2. Read self help books, but don’t apply anything in them to your life.

3. Talk about changing your life, but don’t ever make changes.

4. Spend hours creating affirmations, but don’t ever look at them again.

5. Use lots of cool words and phrases like, “I wish...”, or “Someday...”,

6. Procrastinate. A lot.

7. Be jealous and/or suspicious of everyone else’s good fortune.

8. Hang out with other people who share your desire to NOT be successful.

9. Learn to quit. Then do it often. Especially when it gets tough.

10. Learn to use the ultimate power phrase, guaranteed to keep success out of your life... “I CAN’T!”


Follow these simple tips and you will soon find yourself back where you started, before you even heard of those nasty words, “Self Improvement”. You'll be back in your comfort zone, where your dreams are just that... dreams!

OR...

You could do the opposite of each of these ten tips and actually begin achieving your goals and dreams.

As always, the choice is yours. The law of attraction is always working, always moving you toward those things that you choose to focus on. Whichever direction you aim your life in, that is the direction you will move in. You get to decide - will you choose to remain in your old familiar comfort zone? Or will you venture onto the new, and sometimes unknown road to success?

Aim for your dreams... and you WILL achieve them.


Peace,
