Affirmations Part I

One thing I realized about affirmations is how important the way you state them is. For instance, I used to state one of my affirmations with the words "I am rich." That's great, because I knew that somewhere I was rich, and that all I had to do was find the way to manifest this already existing wealth. The catch was, at that period of my life when I said "I am rich" and then looked around me, not only did I not believe that, but I was also saying that "I am rich, and my life as it was currently represented being rich!" Incredible!

Risk Taking And The Quality Of Our Lives

n I was watching a DVD the other night, The Astronaut Farmer, and it really made me think. As implausible as the actual story was, the myth it portrayed in human terms was of great value. Perhaps the very implausibility of the story was what made the truth behind the myth stand out to ...

Define Success: Achieve Success

If you went out to buy a television set, and didn’t really know what the best one was, oh, you had a general idea, but no clear picture, what would you end up buying? You would most likely end up buying something based on what others believed a good TV set should be. Might work for you then, might not. It might even be a great TV set, but the purchase might also not be very satisfying, because others don't know you as well as you do, what you like, what you don't like. Sound like a lot of speculation and guessing? It is, and that's exactly how most of us approach our success.

If Only I'd Been Taller

Thinking that there's some magic formula out there, that if only you would find it out, then all of your success, money, love, and on and on, will finally arrive into your life. Then, like a flood gate bursting, this magic portal will be opened, and soul mates, friends, popularity, and fame and fortune will be yours. Hey, that's great! Show me that door. It's the old "If only I'd been taller" game we play with our minds. If only I'd been taller, then I would have gotten that good job!

Visualizations, Affirmations, And Wealth

Wealth can be defined as any number of things, experiences, or manifestations. In the online seminar series I present, wealth is defined as "an increase in anything that is important to you." So wealth could be more smiles from friends, more money, or more of a profound and distinct experience of your relationship to . . . anything. Wealth doesn't even have to be "an accumulation of" because we don't necessarily stock up on smiles or experiences. This increase could be actual or perceived. It's simply an increase in anything that is important to you. With "to you" being the key phrase.

The Practice Of Trust

Trust is the opposite energy from resistance. When we trust, we say we are "going with the flow." But what is the flow? It's the way things are going. For instance, in line with the popular metaphor of a river, the flow is the direction the river is going in. Nothing mysterious or complicated about that. What complicates our getting into the flow is our resistance.

There is a success we can attain that goes far beyond simple material success. This deep of success is attained only through the giving up our attachment to being "right" about all the illusions we have surrounding what it means to be successful. In the online seminar I do with participants, we work a lot on processes that assist us in giving up the energy wasting practice of attachment. Attachment to illusions usually!

Using Weights To Build Your Success Momentum

By, TB Wright If you were in a windstorm, unless you had weight, you would be blown all around. Life can be like a windstorm. Without weights, you would not be able to maintain your balance, and you would quickly lose your place. Weights allow us to focus our attention in a way that keeps our eyes on the goals we have; where it is we want to go, and where it is we are.

Want More Power? Make More Distinctions Not More Meanings!

TB Wright What is a distinction? Hot or cold. Up or down. Those are distinctions. They give us valuable information about the world around us. What is a meaning? It's good that it's hot. It's bad that it's cold. Those are meanings. They give us no information about the world around us. They only give us information about the world inside us. We make distinctions because they give us access to our power, through paying attention to the world around us.

How To Change Your Life Completely In Ten Seconds!

*excerpted from the E-book of the same title: Any one of us, can do most anything, for ten seconds. Think about it. Can you forgive someone for just ten seconds? Usually we can. Can you hold your tongue for ten seconds, even when you're upset? I'm sure we've all done that. And then after that ten seconds, what happens? We go right back into the angry and vindictive thoughts again. And that's not a bad thing, not at all. Angry and vindictive thoughts are simply reminders of some authentic way we are feeling deep inside, that we haven't yet fully experienced.

Giving Up Judgments #2 Of 3

TB Wright Part II In the first of these three articles, some ways of giving up judging were provided so that we can free that negative energy up from what doesn’t work, to what does work in our lives. Why do this? Because it's energy that we already have, and are already using, but not necessarily devoted toward that which has us be successful, and successful in any area of our lives you can imagine. What does work? What we say works. It's our voice, our choice. More ways for giving up judgments will be provided here, because it seems as if our judging process is endless. It is!

Visualizations: How To Make Them Work

Visualization is something it took me a long time to understand, read: agree with. You can then read "agree with" to mean: to be able to effectively practice. Effective practice is to do something over and over again with the least resistance possible. Usually our resistance to practice comes from not having faith in the outcome, and that's usually as a result of not having practiced enough! It's an endless circle, but one that can easily be worked with for our success. Let's begin this practice for success with an understanding of what visualization is not.

Do I have to be happy? Of course not. Being happy or not isn't all that important. What is important, is being what you are in any one now moment, and then having what you're being mean nothing. Again, do you have to have what you are being, mean nothing? No, certainly, you don't have to do this either. In fact, you don't have to do anything at all. Where's that list? Nothing of the sort.

How To Build A Foundation For Success

Wanting is the one hard wired human condition that will not go away. We want to be warm, we want to be fed, we want to be loved, we want so many things. And then after those basic wants are fulfilled, we want to be happy and successful, in whatever way success is defined for each of us. Given that truth, it might work the best for us, to learn how to develop a relationship to wanting that works for us as a foundation for our success. What would a relationship like that look like? It would be one that on a continual, day by day, basis, causes us to shift our energy from, to.

Affirmations II

There are two types of affirmations. Each type has two parts that make up the whole of it. Without acting upon this truth, our affirmation work becomes something other than effective. Let's look at this. Affirmations are effective when they are repeated. Customarily, that repeating would look like us, finding a favorite affirmation, such as "My life now flows with money" and then repeating these words over and over, with the intention that more money manifests for us. Affirmations are associated with courses, classes, and conferences.

Using Our Attention To Manifest Success

There seem to be a certain number of hard wired skills we have, and one of them is our attention. Our attention isn't what we focus upon, but rather, our ability to stay focused on something. And then to add a further distinction, the most valuable way to pay attention is when we are focused on something, for instance, a solution to a problem we are having, and we do so without judgment, fear, worry, or complaint. That's when we are the most successful in coming up with ideas that actually work to have us have what we want. Usually a way out of some mess!

Truth And The Wealth Connection

Truth is the one most powerful method for manifesting money, being happier, and in the long run, for expanding upon our wealth. Where wealth in The One Penny Millionaire!™ is defined as "an increase in any area of your life that is important to you." This is why the "fake it till you make it" method only works in a minimal way. I prefer the "tell the truth now, tell the truth later" method. In this way, those things which can block our success, such as all manner of resistance, fear, anger, and disappointment, are confronted, told the truth about, and then gone beyond.

We take ourselves seriously all time, but in misaligned directions away from our success. A misaligned direction is any one that leads away from our success, and toward our upset. Any energy other than that which is devoted toward our being successful, is misaligned energy. And misaligned energy cannot be used for getting us what we want, if what we want is success!

Seven Ways To Overcome Anger

TB Wright I am a firm believe in the "tell the truth now, tell the truth later" method of living a successful life. Truth is authentic, clean, and it just simply feels right. We have a great method of disce ment for catching when people are telling the truth, including ourselves, and it's our feelings. So the best way to overcome anger is to tell the truth about it. If that feels right, then you are on the right path. You don’t have to agree with these steps for them to work well for you either. And know that it isn't that anger doesn't come up for all of us, it does.

Their commitments are so clear because their results match up with what they are committed to.

Radical Life Improvement From Nothing

TB Wright It seems as if we all desire to improve our lives. But in order to do something, we have to first understand what exactly, that something is. Since we desire to improve our lives, what does that mean? Improve? According to the dictionary, it means "to increase in value, to bring about a more desirable or excellent condition." Since the specific details for each one of us that we would have to bring about in order to do that, are different, then to each one of us, to "improve" means something different!

Giving Up Judgments #1 of 3

Part 1: First of all, in order to give something up, we would have to know what that something actually is. Not what we believe it is, or think it is, but what it actually is. This is a difficult disce ment to make with regard to judgments because there is a line regarding our perceptions of what is a judgment, and what is not a judgment, that when crossed, triggers our automatic mind system to reward us with the feeling of "being right" and the key point is, whether we are correct with our assessment, or not.

Discovering Authentic Feelings

There is a balance point between feelings, that when practiced, makes for harmonious relationships. We're not usually at that point, due to the masculine/feminine bent toward opposites poles in relationship to the way we use feelings, not feelings themselves. And it's this "use" where our communications about what we are really feeling breaks down, and so causes discord. When we use feelings to manipulate, instead of communicating our authentic feelings, then what happens is the truth is not being told.

Tips On Enlightenment Here!

TB Wright I once asked a woman who was giving tips on "How to become enlightened" not as a flip way of sassing her, but as a legitimate question. "How can you give advice in any way whatsoever, on being enlightened, when you are not?" She answered by saying that she could certainly know of the existence of something, without being that. I agreed with her. I knew of the sun, without being the sun, but I wasn't saying I was on the path to become the sun now, was I? So the question still remained.
