The Simplest Plan in the World for Getting Whatever You Want

By Andreas Ohrt

So did you learn anything in the last 24 lessons? Do you realize that you hold in your hands a compilation of the most powerful secrets in the world? You may have already experienced positive changes in your life simply through the power of the decision you made when you purchased this book. Now is the time to apply your knowledge. Mind power is an incredible force in the universe, but unless you take physical, concrete action none of your desires can come to you. This book provides access to some of the greatest teachers on this planet. Choose the ones whose writing you’ve enjoyed the most, follow their advice with dedication and determination, and I guarantee your dreams will come true.
You’ve learned a lot in the previous 24 lessons. Vast amounts of secret wisdom has been downloaded into your mind and soul. Your life will change for the better, easily and effortlessly, simply for having read this book. But if you really want to make change quickly and dramatically, you must apply your knowledge.
In order to help you begin, I’ve written this short article. I’ve tried to distill the fundamental keys which all mind power masters continually return to. I have tried to make this knowledge as simple as humanly possible, so that every single person reading this book will be able to take this information and use it, easily and quickly. Here then, is the most simple possible explanation of the power of your creative energy. Follow
these four steps, and any goal can be yours.
Step One : Know What You Want Yes, it seems so obvious, doesn’t it?
You must know what you want in order to get what you want. Yet this most basic first step is missed by the majority of people. You must know what you want as specifically as possible. This is the magic first step. >> Daydreaming about your future will not bring you what you want. Waiting for life to work out the way you’ve always expected won’t bring you what you want. The only way to get what you want is to decide, with clarity and focus, exactly what you want to create.
So how do you know what you want? Well, it’s very simple. Write down your desires, your dreams, and everything that you want for your life. Then pick the one thing on your list that you know you could accomplish if you dedicated some energy to it. Pick that one and forget about the rest. Pick the very next goal in the creation of your live and go for it.
Focus, focus, focus. Don’t waste your energy wishing and dreaming for a million and one things. Pick one and go with it. Just as the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, so does the journey to your ideal life begin with a single goal.
So begin with an easy, do-able goal, so far unaccomplished, plug it into this 4-step system. Write down as specifically and exactly what it is you will create. After it’s finished, move on to the next goal.
Step Two : Focus On What You Want You must give positive focus, energy, and attention to your goal. Setting a goal and then forgetting about it will not do. You must imprint it on your conscious and subconscious mind until it becomes reality.
Remember, thought is blindingly fast compared to the manifestation of thoughts into reality. Of course, as you practice this system and become more confident, your thoughts will come into reality much more quickly. But as a beginner, you must keep your energy and intention directly on your goal. You must focus on what you want, not on what you don’t want. Stop complaining about things that are not the way you want them to be. Instead, decide how you would like them to be and focus on that. Whenever you find yourself giving attention to some area of your life with which you are unhappy, immediately ask yourself ”What do I want in this situation?” and focus on the answer. Take a look at your goal every day, give it positive focus and attention. Before you fall asleep and after you wake up, instead of worrying about your problems, imagine your
goal successfully attained, and imagine how you would feel if your goal was accomplished. Go to sleep with this feeling, and your subconscious mind will quickly find a way to bring it into your reality.
Step Three : Take Action Now!
You must take action towards your goal, and you must take action right now! There is no other time that you can act. The past is gone, the future is an illusion. Making plans to take action is not action. You must take action right now. There is always something that you can do to propel you towards your goal. It doesn’t matter how tiny the action is, or how insignificant you might feel it is, you must do it. There is always some small step you can take. Take that step. You must convince your subconscious mind that you are serious about accomplishing your goal, and there is nothing more convincing than taking action.
No matter where you are along your path to your goal, no matter how near or far you might feel to be, there is always an obvious next step you can take. Take that step in this present moment. Right now.
If you have trouble figuring out what to do, or are paralyzed into inaction because it seems there are too many things to do, just do this: Make a list of all the things that need to happen in order for your goal to arrive. List all the intermediary steps that you will experience as your goal begins to enter your life.
Somewhere on this list will be the obvious next step. Do it. Do it now!
Step Four : Choose The Same Thing Every Day
You must be consistent. You must, consistently, choose the same goal every day until your goal is accomplished. You cannot send out constantly changing vague wishes into the universe and expect to create results in the real world. It’s as simple as ordering a meal in a restaurant. You must decide what you want and then ask for it. If you can’t make up your mind the waiter will simply serve someone else until you’re ready. If you do not provide the universe with a specific goal which you consistently take action toward, your “meal” will never come to you. And the most important secret of all : Don’t Give Up Until Your Goal Is Accomplished.

Why Gratitude is the Key to Getting Anything You Want

By Jeff Staniforth

When it comes to worldly affairs, the saying, "Seeing is believing" reigns supreme. When you “see” someone accomplish something, you start to “believe” in that person's ability. If a product delivers what it promises, you then believe that it works. When you see a "formula" yield positive results, you begin to believe in it. Evidence is essential in order for people to believe. This has led to the saying, "I'll believe it when I see it." The proof is in the pudding.

But in spiritual affairs, the opposite is true. "Believing is seeing." If you believe first, you will see that thing that you believe in manifest itself in front of your very eyes. That's a testament to the awesome power of belief. This has led to another saying: "I'll see it when I believe it."

However, for most people, believing is the problem. That's why most people who lack conviction when they recite affirmations, for instance, are missing the secret ingredient that's necessary to materialize their dreams. If you've ever encountered some internal resistance when you first read or speak a positive affirmation, that's an indication that you do not really believe what you're saying. For example, how can you really believe the affirmation, "I am perfectly healthy in body, mind and spirit" when outer appearances point to the contrary (e.g., you're sick or in pain)?

An important part of believing is to feel "as if it has already happened." I have found that one of the best ways to evoke that feeling is to express gratitude after you recite an affirmation. Just saying the words, "Thank you" after you state your affirmation reinforces the belief that the universe (or God, or your Creator, or whatever name you call the Supreme Being) has already set about the fulfillment of your desire. You may not see your affirmed desire fully manifested yet at the present time, but expressing thanks makes you believe that what you've asked for is already done. Thereafter, you have a sense of expectancy that what you desire will eventually come to fruition.

If there was ever a "formula" for manifesting desires, this is it. Ancient spiritual manuscripts, including the Bible, emphasize that a single-minded belief is essential in receiving what you ask for. They also warn against double-mindedness. Know with absolute and unwavering certainty that what you are affirming is already yours. "If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes." So believe that it's already done by simply saying "Thank you" or assuming an attitude of gratitude after affirming what you want. I once heard a wonderful quotation from an anonymous author that says it profoundly: "We can start with who we are and what we have today, apply gratitude, then let it work it's magic. Say thank you, until you mean it. If you say it long enough, you will believe it. Today will shine the transforming light of gratitude on all the circumstances of my life."

The Secrets of “Logging On Inside” to Succeed

By Bob Scheinfeld

Logging on to the Internet today is just about as amazing as making a phone call. At the very least, we rely on it to communicate, research, sell, buy, and find recreation. But as amazing as the Internet appears, it has its limitations. However, there's another network you can access to get the help you need to succeed. It’s much larger and older than the Internet, infinitely more powerful, and doesn't require a computer. It’s the invisible net- work—and the mindset and system for tapping into it is what I call The 11th Element.

The Internet connects us at the conscious level, while the invisible network connects us beneath our conscious awareness, at an unconscious level. Once considered “new age” or “way out,” today international scientists, including those at Harvard University and Stanford Research Institute, among various other private institutions, are documenting the unconscious as a real and potent force.

You Have Already Connected

Have you ever known something was going to happen before it actually did? Or picked up the phone knowing intuitively who was on the other end? Perhaps you’ve known what someone else was going to say before they said it. You’ve certainly had hunches that proved to be accurate. Where do you think this knowledge came from?

Rob Strasser, once a top executive with Nike, had a hunch, a feeling that the company should invest major resources in the new “Nike Air” line of shoes. Without any hard data backup, he pushed the project forward despite tremendous resistance from the management team. Nike Air ended up being one of the most successful product launches the company ever made. Where do think Strasser’s “feeling” came from?

Stare at anyone through car window glass at a stoplight or in a crowded mall or sitting several seats in front of you in a theater. Often the person will turn to look directly at you because they “felt” you staring at them. How did they know not only that someone’s looking at them, but where that person is?

When I was 16 years old, I was in a bad car accident at 3:00 in the morning. At that exact moment, my mother woke up, sat straight up in bed, and knew something “bad” had happened to me. How could she possibly have known?

Why do you think you have an instant attraction to or dislike of someone you’ve met for the first time? Why do you feel you can trust them or that they make you feel uncomfortable?

All these unexplainable experiences are examples of how we constantly lo g on to the invisible network without consciously intending to. The real question is not: “Is there really an invisible network connecting us all together?” The real question is: “How can I use the invisible network to help me build my business and wealth?”

Dual Purposes Of The Invisible Network

The invisible network serves two purposes in your life. It’s an information storehouse and a communications “switchboard

1. Information Storehouse: On the Internet “search engines” store huge collections of information you can access to research virtually any subject. The invisible network also has search engines, but their functionality is much larger and more complex than their limited Internet counterparts.

The invisible network automatically receives information about everything and everyone in the world and stores that information in its search engines. I call this collected information “master biography files.”

For example, if someone is working on a cure for cancer in Japan, developing an invention in Australia, has a special skill and lives in South Africa, offers a unique prod- uct or service in the United States, or has new strategies she’s applying in England, the details are automatically sent into the network where you can access them for your benefit. Even more amazing, the information in the Invisible network is continuously updated on a real-time, moment-to-moment basis. That’s why tapping into the Invisible network helps you find what you need to produce extraordinary results, and provides access to raw power that goes so far beyond your conscious capabilities.

2. Communication “Switchboard”: Messages flow 24/7 through the invisible network at the unconscious level. Every second people are sending messages asking for help in achieving goals and specifying the kind of help they’re willing to offer others. And just like in the “surface world,” we discuss, negotiate, make decisions, and make agreements at the unconscious level: “I’ll do this for you if you’ll do that for me.” The excitement happens when we see “on the surface” the positive result of our unconscious request.

If the Internet excites you, imagine magnifying its available resources and possibilities billions of times and you have a slight idea of what’s possible when you start tapping into the invisible network. No matter what’s going on in your business or financial life right now—with sales, profits, income, operations, employees, net worth, investments, and so on—it’s all being shaped in powerful and amazing ways by information and messages previously sent into the invisible network.

Asking for Help On The Invisible Network

If you send out 20 e-mails with a question, you’ll get answers back but you can’t expect answers to questions you didn’t ask. The invisible network works the same way. You must ask for the help you want and need! It may not always seem so, but at the unconscious level everyone on the planet wants to help everyone else fulfill their life purposes and complete their missions. And just like on the Internet, other people will help you if you ask them properly. You just have to know how to find the right people and how to ask them for help so you get the positive response you desire.

In my 11th Element work, I show you how to access the invisible network in the most effective way by working with your "Inner CEO" – the "internal guidance system" that helps you attain your goals based on their relevance to your mission and purpose. You can begin now as I did, without always having the contacts, ideas, skills, knowledge, and resources I ultimately needed and used to succeed. Begin by asking for help and letting your “inner guidance” be your guide.

For more than 20 years, Bob Scheinfeld has been helping people create extraordinary results, in less time, with less effort, and much more fun. He'll get you tapping into a new kind of power to produce the total success you've been searching for. For more information visit: www.mindpowernews.com/InvisiblePath.htm

How to Attract More Money Into Your Life : Two Things You Can Do – Right Now

By Michael Losier

One of the most common questions people ask me about the Law of Attraction is how to use it to attract more money. Money is simply the energy of abundance, and the Law of Attraction can therefore be used deliberately to increase abundance in our lives. To understand how to increase the energy of abundance, consider this: The Law of Attraction is all about vibes.

The word vibes comes from the longer word—vibration. All energy is vibration. We commonly use the word vibe to refer to experiences that give off a negative vibe or a positive vibe. So, when we say we get a good vibe or a bad vibe from an experience, we are actually describing positive vibrations or negative vibrations.

Here is an important concept that is vital to understanding how to use the Law of Attraction; vibrations are generated as a result of the thoughts and words we use. A vibration is simply a mood or a feeling. In every moment, we are emitting (sending or offering) a vibration. In the vibration world, there are only two kinds of vibrations; pos it live or negative. The Law of Attraction is a powerful, universal law that simply responds to our vibration by giving us more of the same, whether wanted or unwanted -- in every moment, including right now!

Definition of the Law of Attraction: I attract to myself, whatever I give my focus, attention, or energy to; whether wanted or unwanted. The Law of Attraction is an obedient law. Understanding that, we want to become more deliberate offer of the vibes that we are emitting.

Using the Law of Attraction to Increase Our Abundance

We have learned so far that all feelings give off vibrations, either positive or negative. Abundance is a feeling and that’s GOOD news. Why? All feelings can be duplicated! Abundance is a feeling, and that feeling has a corresponding vibration that we can duplicate. In many cases, people are duplicating the feeling of lack, sadness, or hopelessness simply by the thoughts and the words they use. Given that we can generate feelings by our words and thoughts, we can learn how to duplicate the feelings of abundance more intentionally, using our words and thoughts. The best news of all is, the Law of Attraction doesn’t know if we are generating a thought by; remembering, pretending, creating, visualizing, or day-dreaming. It simply responds to our vibration in that moment. And -- we can only hold one vibration at a time! By creating the vibration of abundance more deliberately and more often, we are INCREASING abundance in our lives.

I suggest that you commit to this process of deliberately duplicating the vibration of abundance, by using your thoughts, for the next 7 days. Start today! Here’s the exercise that will help you do that.

Part One :

Build a list of all the sources and resources where money and abundance can come from. Most people when asked: “How could you get more money?” reply that they could work more to earn more money. The belief that the ONLY way to increase your abundance, is to find a way to earn more money, is a limiting belief. There are actually many, many other ways that abundance can increase in your life.

Here are 5 sources of abundance. Start with these and build your list to 60 sources or more!

Sources of Abundance :

Someone treats you to lunch (or breakfast or dinner) Someone gives you free advice or coaching You receive gifts You receive free transportation or lodging You get your 3rd cup of coffee free

Part Two :

Keep a daily log of all the sources from which you are receiving abundance. This will significantly help you to notice abundance in your life. Keeping a daily log shows you concrete evidence that abundance DOES exist and IS increasing in your life. Celebrate! When you notice abundance, celebrate the evidence of it in your life and while celebrating, know that you are offering the positive vibration of abundance. Remember, at every moment, including right now, the Law of Attraction is checking to see which vibration you are offering, responding to that vibration, and giving you more of the same.

Here’s a great tip! Two minutes a day of deliberate attention to abundance is better than no minutes.

This exercise will have you emitting or offering the vibration of abundance more deliberately and more frequently. Have fun with this!

Start doing this exercise for the next 7 days and notice the things you can now start telling yourself: “I’m so abundant! I’ve attracted evidence of abundance every day for the last 7 days.” “I’m so abundant; I’ve attracted 100’s of dollars of free advice in the last 7 days.”

Become a deliberate offer-er of your vibration and the Law of Attraction will obediently bring you more of the same.

Creating the Prosperity Mindset

By Randy Gage

The note was scrawled across the back of a flyer for the chaplain program. It was written by a parishioner, right after a Sunday service I had given at my own church. “I hadn’t realized until you pointed it out that it’s the rich people who are the spiritual ones,” he wrote. “I guess those slave holders were on the right track. The only thing wrong was the prosperity consciousness of those slaves!”

No doubt the writer was being quite sarcastic, and thought his comments would expose the absurdity of my teaching, and support his beliefs. (Which it’s safe to assume, are that it is somehow spiritual to be poor, and that rich people are exploiting the poor.)

It’s fascinating that he would pick such an analogy, because I DO believe that in many cases, rich people are operating at a higher consciousness than poor people. That’s why they are rich! I also believe people who allow others to steal their freedom have serious issues of prosperity consciousness. Since he didn’t sign his note, he won’t discover that instead of seeing irony in his comments—I see an element of truth. Imagine the amazement and shock he might feel. Perhaps you are feeling the same way now.

The fact that rich people have amassed wealth indicates that they are living by at least some of the spiritual laws that govern prosperity. Of course, this does not mean that all rich people are spiritual and all poor people are not. Prosperity is a synergy of a number of factors, including a strong spiritual connection, optimum health, great relation ships, rewarding vocation, and, yes, the material aspects.

So, rich people who are sick, bitter and lonely are certainly not prosperous. By the same token, however, if you are healthy, spiritually grounded, have a great marriage, but struggle to pay your credit cards each month—you are certainly not prosperous either. In the book “As a Man Think eth,” James Allen relates how usual it is for people to say, “Many men are slaves because one is an oppressor; let us hate the oppressor.” He then goes on to note the increasing tendency of people to say, “One man is an oppress or because they are slaves; let us despise the slaves.” The real truth is that both the slaves and the oppressor are co-creators in ignorance, lack, and limitation. While it seems that they are victimizing each other—in reality, they are each victimizing themselves.

Prosperity and human dignity are both based upon value received. An oppressor can not sustain prosperity because he is exacting more than he returns, and will ultimately bankrupt his own consciousness. A slave gives not enough value to himself, and like wise ends up in a state of spiritual bankruptcy. As the Course in Miracles teaches, they are no victims, only volunteers.

A person will remain weak, dependent and miserable by refusing to raise his or her consciousness. A person can reject servitude, conquer limitations, and achieve greatness by raising his or her consciousness. To quote again from Allen’s book :

“A strong man cannot help a weaker unless that weaker is willing to be helped, and even then the weak man must be strong of himself; he must, by his own efforts, develop the strength which he admires in another. None but himself can alter his condition.”

It’s tough to develop the strength to be prosperous, if you’re being continually programmed that it’s spiritual to be poor. Especially if you’re not even aware you’re being programmed and it’s on a subconscious level.

To experience true spiritual prosperity, you have to be manifesting prosperity in ALL areas of your life. Yet if you’re doing ok in most areas, but you don’t have much money it’s easy to fall into the trap our note writer did. You want to believe that somehow your reward is coming later, heaven perhaps, and that you will in some way be compensated for living your current life of limitation. After all, who among us wants to believe that we are suffering needlessly, or have riches at our fingertips, but refuse to partake in them?

Now to be fair to our letter writer—he certainly isn’t alone. This kind of thinking is quite pervasive today. So why would I write a book with a message, sure to threaten so many people? Because I fear what will happen to them when they are not threatened.

I take the privilege and the responsibility of my platform seriously. In fact, I consider it sacred. I speak the messages I perceive people need to hear, not necessarily the ones they want to hear. It pains me to see anyone anywhere experiencing poverty and lack in their life. When you think about it, the idea of me giving a Sunday church service is kind of funny. I was raised atheist, and entered a church only twice in my first 30 years on the planet. (Once by accident, and once for a wedding.) When I found my way to the church I would eventually call home, I was unemployed, had no car, was $55,000 in debt, and selling my furniture to eat. My health was shot ; my relationships were an absolute mess; and I couldn’t have been more unhappy. By the time the furniture was gone, and I was eating macaroni and cheese three times a day, I discovered a very fascinating thing...

I came to understand that success and prosperity had almost nothing to do with opportunities, chance, luck—or even training, education, or skill. It had everything to do with consciousness, beliefs, and even subconscious programming that you aren’t aware of. Poverty is not an absence of money and things—it is a mindset. Prosperity is not an abundance of money and things—it’s also a mindset. When I began studying the laws that govern prosperity, I embraced the principles out of desperation . . .

I applied those principles, and you’d be hard pressed to find anyone who has had a greater degree of turnaround. I am truly blessed, manifesting abundance in all areas of my life, in ever increasing ways.

This only happened because I was willing to confront my weaknesses, discover and eliminate the insidious “lack” programming I had, and replace it with positive programming. To this day, I am ever vigilant, mindful of what I allow myself to watch and listen to, and the people I associate with.

I had to get out of my comfort zone, brave fears, and face up to my beliefs. Once you have done this, you feel called to help others challenge the self-limiting beliefs that are holding them back from their greatness. That was the motivation I felt that morning, as I spoke at church, and the motivation that has me writing this book for you now. Money is part of the magic in life. It is an enabling force that allows you to be the real you. It allows you to go where you wish to go, do what you wish to do, and become whom you desire to become. Money is God in action! Poverty causes people to lie, cheat, steal, and even kill. There is NOTHING spiritual about poverty. Yes, poverty really does suck.

Some of the people in my audiences are shocked when I make the statement that it is a sin to be poor. Of course, Charles Fillmore shocked the religious community of his day, when he made that proclamation almost 100 years ago. It still has the power to stun people today.

Yet if you learn the actual translation of sin, it means to “miss the mark.” The Course in Miracles defines sin as a lack of love. I believe both characterizations are accurate. When you are providing true value to the universe—you are rewarded with riches. That’s the way the universe works. All the time, with no exception.

When I speak to an audience, or write a book like this, I want people to understand a very simple, but very important thing. They can’t help anyone unless they have first helped themselves. Or as Reverend Ike would say, the best thing you can do for poor people is not be one of them!

It doesn’t serve God or you, if you are broke, sick, unhappy, or in dysfunctional relationships. You have to believe you are worthy of prosperity in ALL of its forms. Then as you walk the path of spiritual consciousness, you will find that you begin to manifest it more every day.

And that is what drives me to do what I do. So if I shock you, offend you, or threaten you with what I write lease evaluate why that might be. And know that I am coming from a place of love, and wanting the highest good for you. I want you to be healthy, happy and rich!
