a Fight ....Outcomes....
Thus, the fight over gold and silver as
media of exchange is about more than mere money, let alone making
money. For it is a fight with only two possible outcomes: either control
of their own lives by the people themselves, or control of the people
and their lives by political and economic elitists. - Dr. Edwin Vieira

Are you really happiness? Or just be happy you....
I was intrigued by this line in the acknowledgements: “..in helping
to divine the secret to achieving the 5th (highest) level of
performance.”
Success has always fascinated me – how each of us defines it, how those that have achieved it did so, how those that teach it do so.. In fact, I’ve dedicated most of my life to studying it.
What becomes really clear after studying it for many years, is that success is defined differently by everyone. So when Jay Niblick wrote what he did – it caught my attention.
His book is amazing, and to save the suspense, yes he has divined the secret to top level performance, or in simple terms, true success. Can I present it within a few paragraphs? Well, I’ll try!
We all define success differently, but most people agree that true success is more like fulfilment and happiness. And what makes us happy and fulfilled is different for everyone.
What brings us the experience of happiness and fulfilment, is the combination of two things:
Well, point 1 – we need to know what makes us happy. This really comes from self-awareness. Self awareness is not simply being aware of ourself, it is being aware of who we really, and perhaps more importantly – who we are not. And in the three main areas:
And point 2 – we need to be succeeding in reaching that place. This comes from being authentic to what we discovered in point 1 – making sure that we remain true to ourselves and what we enjoy the most, what we are best at doing, and where/how we like to do it.
When point 1 and point 2 overlap – we are in our element, and we typically perform at much higher levels – genius levels when we really unleash our true potential.
Jay’s book “What’s Your Genius” takes you through this whole program. It’s a book that in the right hands, can be life-changing.
Here’s to you finding and working your own genius.

We all define success differently, but most people agree that true success is more like fulfilment and happiness. And what makes us happy and fulfilled is different for everyone.
What brings us the experience of happiness and fulfilment, is the combination of two things:
- We first need to know what makes us happy – we need a clear understanding of what happiness and fulfilment looks like for us.
- We then need to be succeeding in fulfilling that definition, achieving those goals.
Well, point 1 – we need to know what makes us happy. This really comes from self-awareness. Self awareness is not simply being aware of ourself, it is being aware of who we really, and perhaps more importantly – who we are not. And in the three main areas:
- Behavioural and communication. How we naturally like to interact and communicate – and how we don’t. This relates to being aware of the type of environment we flourish in, and what environment stresses us.
- Drivers and motivators. What we value, what our passion is. What motivates and drives us, and what de-motivates and drains us.
- Our talents and strengths. What comes naturally and easily to us – is effortless, and what we have to work hard at, takes energy and effort.
And point 2 – we need to be succeeding in reaching that place. This comes from being authentic to what we discovered in point 1 – making sure that we remain true to ourselves and what we enjoy the most, what we are best at doing, and where/how we like to do it.
When point 1 and point 2 overlap – we are in our element, and we typically perform at much higher levels – genius levels when we really unleash our true potential.

a brief Art of the Start with Social Media and WordPress:
The Art of The Start manifesto by Guy Kawasaki is one of my all time favourites. Guy is a genius.
I get asked quite often about getting started with WordPress and Social Media. Seems like we can combine the two for an interesting twist..
So with acknowledgements to Guy, and a Social Media twist, here’s a brief Art of the Start with Social Media and WordPress:
1. MAKE MEANING:
Guy states that “The best reason to start an organization is to make meaning – to create a product or service that makes the world a better place. So your first task is to decide how you can make meaning.”
When looking at using social media marketing, ask ‘what is it that you’re marketing?’. The answer should be something around creating value – value is meaning. For maximum effect, the value has to be rooted in the lofty goal of contribution to something bigger than yourself, but which you are a part of. This is the purpose of your endeavour, the big ‘Why‘.
2. MAKE MANTRA:
Guy states that “Forget mission statements; they’re long, boring, and irrelevant. No one can ever remember them—much less implement them. Instead, take your meaning and make a mantra out of it. This will set your entire team on the right course.”
What we’re talking about here is articulating your passion, rather than a lofty ideal. This is the vision. What does it look and feel like when you’re putting answer 1 into action – the essence of the ‘state’ you are in. Who are you being in that state? How can you distil the essence of that into a mantra?
3. GET GOING:
From Guy: “Start creating and delivering your product or service. Think soldering irons, compilers, hammers, saws, and AutoCAD – whatever tools you use to build products and services. Don’t focus on pitching, writing, and planning.”
This reminds me also of Seth Godin’s quote “Great Artists Ship”. Execution is king. But don’t make the mistake of putting execution first. Execution without an objective is unfocussed activity, not productive activity. The objective is to build answer 2, because of answer 1.
Social Marketing though raises an exception to Guy’s note of not focussing on writing. Actually we should focus on writing – because writing is creating the content. However, make sure that the writing is your channel of expression, for bringing answer 2 to life, and not just an activity to distract you or occupy you. Get writing, get interacting, get making videos, get visible.
4. DEFINE YOUR BUSINESS MODEL:
Guy says: “No matter what kind of organization you’re starting, you have to figure out a way to make money. The greatest idea, technology, product, or service is short-lived without a sustainable business model.”
This is the natural expression of creating value. Whatever you answer to question 1 was, the way you create it in answer 2, has to create value for your market, your team, the people who will pay you money for what you provide. And when it is aligned with your passion, providing value to other swill also in itself be of value to you.
This is where you experience meaning. This is where you take your ideal, and turn it into somethign practical. Think benefits, think value to you clients and customers – put yourself in their shoes and ask “what is my biggest need, my greatest desire”. Ask them, they will tell you. Respond to that need with a value offering, which is also inlien with what you love to do, and are naturally good at.
5. WEAVE A MAT (MILESTONES, ASSUMPTIONS, AND TASKS):
Guy’s words: “The final step is to compile three lists: (a) major milestones you need to meet; (b) assumptions that are built into your business model; and (c) tasks you need to accomplish to create an organization. This will enforce discipline and keep your organization on track when all hell breaks loose – and all hell will break loose.”
Here we thrash out the specific goals that will keep us on track, keep us focussed in times of turmoil and distraction. Discipline is important, but passion will win out over discipline every time. Aligning your activities and goals to your passion, in a way which creates exceptional value for your clients, and doing this within a clearly defined framework of objectives, will do the trick.
There are many more steps of course, but these will put you in the less than 10% of people who do the right things and make a difference.

Five Practical Steps for Social Media Marketing with WordPress
- Setup a WordPress Site. I recommend hosting with MediaTemple. Why? Because after 15 years in the website game, they are the best I have experienced. By Far.
- Setup your social profiles. A good start are Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube and Google Plus. Then integrate these into your WordPress setup [separate post].
- After completing the 5 steps above, you know what to write, why you’re writing it, and who you’re writing it for. Get writing, video interviewing, guest posting, and responding. Keep in the back of your mind that you are looking to establish authority (in your chosen field), credibility (with your clients, followers and audience), and trust.
- Monitor your progress, and the effect you have. Register with http://crowdbooster.com/ and track.
- As soon as you can, establish a content strategy – which has visibility and regularity at it’s core. The frequency doesn’t matter as much as the regularity.
There are many more steps of course, but these will put you in the less than 10% of people who do the right things and make a difference.
To your Social Media Marketing Success,
Paul.

Let Go the Past : Create Change today for Future
Day 5
Hi Soong,
This is Karim Hajee with Day 5 of The 7-Steps To Success Email Course,
an intensive 7-day program that will show you how to begin training
your mind to work with your subconscious mind - so you live the
life you want and achieve your goals. With Creating Power you'll
make lasting changes in your life so
that you achieve your goals and live your dreams.
To learn more about Creating Power and how you can achieve your
goals visit:
Today you're going to learn how to release the past.
This is crucial to your success - because once you release the past
- you open the floodgates for new and exciting opportunities.
Releasing the past takes a little work - but it will be well
worth the rewards.
Releasing The Past
Are you one of those people who sometimes gets trapped in the past
- you know thinking about things over and over - usually these are
events that happened a long time ago - but you just can't stop thinking
about them?
Do you often try to solve events that took place years ago - hoping
or wishing they could be different? Do you sometimes spend hours or
lengthy periods of time trying to understand why something happened
but just can't find an answer? Or do you find that you're just not
ready to move on with life because of something that happened some
time ago - and you just can't get over it - you keep telling
yourself - just a little more time - but this continues to play in
your mind?
If you answered yes to any of the above - you're not alone. There
are millions of people around the world just like you - people who
just can't seem to let go of the past - and in the process continue
to waste their lives away.
Well, in today's edition I'm going to show you how you can release
the past and start living the life you want - and it's really not
as hard as you think.
Over the past few years we've fielded thousands of calls and emails
from people trying to let go of the past. It seems that they
continually think about what was and the way things were.
They also feel compelled to try and figure out what went wrong -
or how they can resolve things. The most common statement is:
"If only I could go back and fix things." Well you can't - and you
shouldn't want to. Because when you focus on the past you deny
yourself the future.
Read on and I'll explain how you can let go of the past - and start
living the life you want.
The Creating Power system teaches you how to release the past - by
getting you to focus on what you want in life - by focusing on
what's important right now.
Choosing to go back in time is not an option - the only option you
have is to go forward - and Creating Power teaches you how to do this -
one step at a time.
How To Let Go Of The Past
In order to begin moving on and letting go of the past you first
have to take responsibility for what happened. I'm not asking you to
accept the blame - I'm just asking you to accept that you did have
a role in what happened and that what happened did in fact happen.
If you seem stuck over a breakup with a boyfriend or girlfriend -
accept that the relationship did come to an end and that you did
have a role in how it went and how it ended. Let's face it -
if you weren't there it would have never happened.
Don't try to figure out what you did wrong in the past - instead
focus on what you could do right the next time. Learn from your
past - it's a great teacher.
Look at the mistakes that were made and focus on what you can do to
improve it the next time around. If you lost a job - don't say that
you did nothing wrong. Don't blame everybody else and say -
"they did this to me."
They didn't do anything to you. They may have done something that
had an impact on you - but you also played a role on some level.
Focus on what you can do the next time to keep a job and make a
great impression.
Right about now I get this question: "Yeah, Karim - but they just
called me in one day and told me that I was going to be laid off -
they were cutting back. What role did I play?
How did I make that happen?" You chose to stay at that job. You
chose to get comfortable and not look for another job.
You chose not to improve your skills and strive to do better.
These are acts that you have to take responsibility for.
Understand, I'm not saying accept blame.
Now the next time you get a good job you could strive to be better.
You won't get comfortable. You won't ignore an opportunity to improve
your skills. These are some of the lessons that come from that
experience.
Every past event, pleasant or not - teaches us something which if
we understand can better prepare us for the future.
Don't focus on what went wrong - focus on what you can do right
the next time. The best way to do this is to think about
what you want next and then apply what you learned. The Creating
Power System teaches you how to focus on what you want -
by getting you to think of the life you want - and not the life you
once had. Creating Power is the complete system that shows you how
to train your mind and subconscious to create the life you want.
"What a wonderful course. I completed the Creating Power system a
few months ago and it has made a real difference.
I'm getting along better with my husband and kids,
I was promoted at work and I'm now a lot more confident than I used
to be. I now believe I can achieve anything and thank you so much Karim."
Lisa J, Dublin, Ireland.
Create Your Future Today
Hey let's face it - the past is in the past.
It's not what is happening now. It doesn't exist today. That
relationship that ended, that job that was lost, the loved one who
passed away - it's all in the past.
Those things and people do not exist today. You exist today -
and your present life exists today. These are the things you need
to focus on.
In order to leave the past in the past - start shifting your focus
to the things that need attention today.
If you lost a job and don't have work - focus on finding a new job.
Remember the lessons learned from the past experience and get out there and start looking for the next thing.
Take care of what needs to be done today. If you're in debt because
you lost some money in the past - then focus on what needs to be
done now - making some additional money so you can get out of debt.
If a relationship ended - then what do you want now? Another
relationship - then get out there and start meeting new people.
If a loved one passed away - then focus on what you need to do
today - on your own and begin building a new life.
I'm not trying to be harsh - I just want to show you that once you
shift your focus to the present moment - your mind will automatically
let go of the past.
There will be times that your mind will drift back into the past -
that's what it knows so that's where it goes. When this happens you
can simply say to yourself - that's in the past - I'm here now and
I'm focusing on my new life now.
You won't stop thinking about the past right away - but as you
continually do this - your mind will begin to adjust.
When you do it in conjunction with some of the things that I just
outlined - you'll start to move forward and actually enjoy
life again. I often have people tell me:
"Karim, I just can't seem to let go of the past - I keep thinking
about it and just can't stop." You only think about it because you
choose not to think about something else. You only think about it
because your mind is used to thinking about it and wants to stick to
what it knows. Teach your mind something new and it will move forward.
Leave your mind where it is and it will cling to what it knows.
So give your mind something else to focus on - like the present
moment and the future and you'll see yourself moving forward.
The mind takes you in the past, tortures you, frightens you, and
depresses you - because that's what it knows - that's what it
identifies with - the mind is comfortable in that zone.
The mind doesn't want to stay in the present moment because it is
not aware of the present.
Only you can make it aware of the present - by focusing on what is
important now.
Do this when you wake up in the morning, focus on what has to be
done that day.
The Creating Power system teaches you how get your mind to mover
forward.
Creating Power shows you how to move forward and focus on what is
important today - with Creating Power you'll do this in the very
first week. Creating Power gets you to think about what you want now
and what you want next.
It gets your mind to move in a different direction - away from the
past - into the present and preparing for the future.
If you're stuck in the past - I encourage you to get
Creating Power and begin living the life you want and deserve.
"Hi Karim,
When I started your Creating Power course I was skeptical but now I
can hardly believe the changes. I realized what I was doing wrong and
now I've seen how I can change my reality and situation.
This really does work and I'm going to recommend your program to
friends and family. Thanks."
Brian G, Denver, Colorado.
Some Final Steps
Another thing you can do is change the way you see past events.
Find a positive spin rather than focusing on the negative. You may
say but that's just the way it is - am I not lying to myself if I
try to see it differently? How do you know you're not lying to
yourself by seeing things the way you do right now?
Your current perception may be to view the events of the past in a
negative light - but how do you know that is real? It's just the
way you see it.Change the way you see things - change your perception
and a new reality unfolds. Look at the positive side of things -
everything has happened to put you where you are now.
You are exactly where you need to be - and you got here because of
past events.
Now begin focusing on this moment - focus on what you want - and
you'll take the next step - to be exactly where you need to be
in the future.
Learn from the past, then release it - by focusing on the present,
and see the past as a friend - pushing you forward to where you
need to go.
Creating Power teaches you how to do this and more. Begin letting
go of the past and create the future you want and dream of -
by working with Creating Power.
Take a look at what you want to achieve in life.
Think about those goals and then start paying attention to the
thoughts you have as you think about achieving those goals. Write
down your negative thought patterns, negative beliefs - and see
what you come up with.
Now ask yourself - what steps are you taking to create changes in
your life?
Come up with a realistic plan - and then start taking steps - see
how your mind responds to this. If you find yourself focusing on
the past - then see if you can get your mind to move forward by
focusing on what is important today. What you uncover could determine
your chances for success.
"First of all I would like to say thank you. I have been practicing
the creating power techniques for about four weeks now and I have seen
remarkable improvements in my confidence, in the way I associate with
people at work, church, at school, and especially with my wife
and daughter. Its amazing."
Jonathan D, Charlotte, North Carolina

Take care of what needs to be done today. If you're in debt because
you lost some money in the past - then focus on what needs to be
done now - making some additional money so you can get out of debt.
If a relationship ended - then what do you want now? Another
relationship - then get out there and start meeting new people.
If a loved one passed away - then focus on what you need to do
today - on your own and begin building a new life.
I'm not trying to be harsh - I just want to show you that once you
shift your focus to the present moment - your mind will automatically
let go of the past.
There will be times that your mind will drift back into the past -
that's what it knows so that's where it goes. When this happens you
can simply say to yourself - that's in the past - I'm here now and
I'm focusing on my new life now.
You won't stop thinking about the past right away - but as you
continually do this - your mind will begin to adjust.
When you do it in conjunction with some of the things that I just
outlined - you'll start to move forward and actually enjoy
life again. I often have people tell me:
"Karim, I just can't seem to let go of the past - I keep thinking
about it and just can't stop." You only think about it because you
choose not to think about something else. You only think about it
because your mind is used to thinking about it and wants to stick to
what it knows. Teach your mind something new and it will move forward.
Leave your mind where it is and it will cling to what it knows.
So give your mind something else to focus on - like the present
moment and the future and you'll see yourself moving forward.
The mind takes you in the past, tortures you, frightens you, and
depresses you - because that's what it knows - that's what it
identifies with - the mind is comfortable in that zone.
The mind doesn't want to stay in the present moment because it is
not aware of the present.
Only you can make it aware of the present - by focusing on what is
important now.
Do this when you wake up in the morning, focus on what has to be
done that day.
The Creating Power system teaches you how get your mind to mover
forward.
Creating Power shows you how to move forward and focus on what is
important today - with Creating Power you'll do this in the very
first week. Creating Power gets you to think about what you want now
and what you want next.
It gets your mind to move in a different direction - away from the
past - into the present and preparing for the future.
If you're stuck in the past - I encourage you to get
Creating Power and begin living the life you want and deserve.
"Hi Karim,
When I started your Creating Power course I was skeptical but now I
can hardly believe the changes. I realized what I was doing wrong and
now I've seen how I can change my reality and situation.
This really does work and I'm going to recommend your program to
friends and family. Thanks."
Brian G, Denver, Colorado.
Some Final Steps
Another thing you can do is change the way you see past events.
Find a positive spin rather than focusing on the negative. You may
say but that's just the way it is - am I not lying to myself if I
try to see it differently? How do you know you're not lying to
yourself by seeing things the way you do right now?
Your current perception may be to view the events of the past in a
negative light - but how do you know that is real? It's just the
way you see it.Change the way you see things - change your perception
and a new reality unfolds. Look at the positive side of things -
everything has happened to put you where you are now.
You are exactly where you need to be - and you got here because of
past events.
Now begin focusing on this moment - focus on what you want - and
you'll take the next step - to be exactly where you need to be
in the future.
Learn from the past, then release it - by focusing on the present,
and see the past as a friend - pushing you forward to where you
need to go.
Creating Power teaches you how to do this and more. Begin letting
go of the past and create the future you want and dream of -
by working with Creating Power.
Take a look at what you want to achieve in life.
Think about those goals and then start paying attention to the
thoughts you have as you think about achieving those goals. Write
down your negative thought patterns, negative beliefs - and see
what you come up with.
Now ask yourself - what steps are you taking to create changes in
your life?
Come up with a realistic plan - and then start taking steps - see
how your mind responds to this. If you find yourself focusing on
the past - then see if you can get your mind to move forward by
focusing on what is important today. What you uncover could determine
your chances for success.
"First of all I would like to say thank you. I have been practicing
the creating power techniques for about four weeks now and I have seen
remarkable improvements in my confidence, in the way I associate with
people at work, church, at school, and especially with my wife
and daughter. Its amazing."

Committment & Dedication :Self to Mind
Day 4
Hi Soong,
This is Karim Hajee with Day 4 of The 7-Steps To Success Email Course,
an intensive 7-day program that will show you how to begin training
your mind to work with your subconscious mind - so you live the life
you want and achieve your goals. With Creating Power you'll make
lasting changes in your life - changes you haven't been able to make
until now.
Today you're going to learn how to create changes in your life - so
that you start attracting new opportunities and achieve your goals.
It's actually a lot easier than you think.
Would you like to achieve all your goals?
Would you like to be the person who gets what they want, enjoys
life, has time to spare and is completely fulfilled? Most of us would
love to have that kind of life - but are you committed and dedicated to
making it happen? If not - then nothing will ever get better.
Recently I had a chance to catch up with some people I hadn't seen
in a really long time. Many of them had achieved what they set out to
do when we were teenagers.
But there were a few who were still struggling - you know -
they were trying to figure things out but couldn't understand why
things hadn't improved for them. I explained to them that things don't
get better - you have to make them better.
Nothing changes for you overnight except the passage of time -
which has it's own side effects.
Creating Change is not just about hoping and praying, it's about
doing and being committed. So read on and you'll learn some valuable
tips on how to create changes in your life and start living the life
you want.
If you want to improve your life, if you want to achieve your goals
you first need to make a solid commitment to change or improve things.
Don't take this lightly - because your commitment is the foundation
for change and a better life. Too often I hear people say:
"Oh yeah, I'm going to make a commitment - I definitely want to
change - in fact, as of tomorrow I'm going to make a list and get
started."
Then tomorrow comes and nothing changes.
Instead, they get distracted and forget about the so-called
commitment they made.
A week later here's what they'll say:
"You know I meant to get started last week but I just got too busy.
Something came up - I can't remember what - but this week I'm
definitely going to get started."
The week comes and goes and nothing changes.
There were too many things that come up. Hey - everyday there are
things that come up and if you don't stay focused those "things"
will throw you off track and in the end nothing gets done.
Nothing improves because you were too busy being distracted.
Nothing changes because you didn't stick to your commitment to change.
A commitment to improve your life means you are going to do
everything you can to make sure things get better.
It says that you are going to take action and start by focusing
on what you need to do to create the changes you want. If you don't
stick to that commitment you'll only get distracted. If you keep
that commitment at the forefront of your mind - then when you
sense something coming that could distract you - you'll
take charge and make the time to create the change you want.
If you're in debt and you want to get out of it - then make a
commitment - and start by not taking on any more debt. If you want
to be in a relationship - then start by making it a priority to
go out and meet people.
If you want to get a job - then start going out and doing
everything you can to get a job and keep going until you get things
done.
Making that commitment sends the message to your subconscious mind
- it tells the subconscious that now I'm ready to change and improve
my life so let's get working.
When you work with my Creating Power course - the first thing I ask
you to do is to make a commitment - a promise to make time for
yourself and achieve your goals.
With Creating Power you'll learn how to focus on what you want and
direct your mind to instruct your subconscious to create the
life you want.
Decide What Kind Of Change You Really Want
Next take a look at where you are and where you want to go.
I often hear from people who want to be millionaires but don't
have a job - there's nothing wrong with that. But in many cases
these people want to be millionaires within 3 months or 6 months.
Sure it's possible. And when I ask them to think of how they can
achieve this goal - here's the most common answer: "I'll win the
lottery." Yes this too is possible.
But is it likely? What are you going up against? What can you do to
make this a reality besides buy lottery tickets? The answer isn't in
buying more lottery tickets.
The answer to being a millionaire and making millions of dollars is
inside you - you have the answer - you just have to uncover it.
We all have the ability to have what we want, need and more - if we
allow ourselves to work at our full potential. When you work at your
full potential - your mind, spirit and body are all working together
to make the outcome happen. Your subconscious also gets going because
it needs to keep up with the rest of you and it in turn your
subconscious starts creating new opportunities for you.
By going at your full potential you say to your higher power, your
subconscious mind and the universe - hey - I'm ready to do my part.
But when you say: "I'll just buy more lottery tickets."
You're really saying: "I'm too lazy to bother working."
Why then should your higher power help you?
I also have people who are making 30-thousand dollars a year who
want to make a million dollars within 6-months.
Yes anything is possible - but you also have to give yourself a
realistic chance.
Look at it this way - you're about to run a marathon - but you've
never trained to run in a marathon, and you've never trained to run
more than a hundred yards.
Now suddenly you want to run 20+ miles - and you expect to win -
but you've never trained. Is it likely? It is possible - but is it
likely? Wouldn't you be better off training, getting in shape,
then start by running a mile, 2 miles, 4 miles,
8 miles until you got to the point where you were running 20+ miles
- before you entered the race.
If you want to be successful - you have to prepare and take things
one step at a time while setting realistic goals that you can build on.
If you want to be a millionaire and you currently don't have a job
- start by getting a job or starting a business.
If you currently make 30-thousand a year and you want to be a
millionaire - how about increasing your yearly income first?
Perhaps aim for making and additional 15-thousand a year doing
something else.
Then increase that, and continue increasing it until you get to a
million.
If you want to get out of debt - then start by paying off a small
amount of the debt - then increase the amount you pay off.
If you want to meet the right person - start by going out, then
getting to know people until you meet the person you think is right
for you.
When you keep your goals realistic and take things one-step at a
time - 2 things happen. First you start building your confidence -
which is crucial to your success. Next you start sending the message
to your subconscious mind.
You start telling your subconscious that you can do this, you say
you are improving and you are ready for change and that you are giving
your subconscious the time that it needs to help you get to where you
want to go.
What you are doing is creating a success consciousness that is sent
directly to your subconscious. It now starts to pick up your
success belief system - and thus greater change takes place sooner.
The Creating Power system teaches you how to set realistic goals,
how to get your subconscious working for you, how to build that
success energy so that you continually accomplish your goals.
With Creating Power you'll learn how to train your mind to work
with your subconscious mind
"Karim, I recently finished your Creating Power course and it's
terrific. I've already been able to attract new business opportunities
and best of all thanks to your course and system I can now make the
right decisions. I've already partnered with some groups that will likely
double my income over the next year. This is great material. Keep up the
good work."
Diane G, Tacoma, Washington.
Get Your Mind To Work For You
This last step is the most important because if you don't keep your
mind focused on what you want to achieve - you'll never get anything
done.
The mind will try to convince you to give up. It will tell you that
there's no need to change, that things are fine just the way they
are, or that you'll get to it tomorrow, next week or next year.
Your mind will tell you that you don't have time right now to do the
things you need to do in order to create the change you want.
It will tell you that it's no use things will never get better.
When the mind does this it's simply deceiving you - it's simply
trying to get you to stop and avoid change. The mind does this
because it doesn't want change.
It wants things to stay the way they are - it's happy in its
misery. But you're not.
You want change - except your mind is not letting you change. If
you don't stay focused you'll give in to the mind - and nothing
ever gets better.
When you work with Creating Power you'll learn to take control of
your mind and direct it so that you achieve your goals.
You essentially learn how to think and create the life you want.
Creating Power is your instruction book for the mind -
with Creating Power you'll learn how to control your mind
and send the right messages to your subconscious mind so that you
create the life you want.
Take a look at what you want to achieve in life. Think about those
goals and then start paying attention to the thoughts you have as
you think about achieving those goals. Write down your negative
thought patterns, negative beliefs - and see what you come up with.
Now ask yourself - what steps are you taking to create changes in
your life? Come up with a realistic plan -
and then start taking steps - see how your mind responds to this -
what you uncover could determine your chances for success.
" Karim, I just love your course. You've taken things to a whole new
level. I studied Joseph Murphy, Napoleon Hill, Louise Hay and a
host of others - but your course really put everything together
for me and got me to change things quickly and easily."
Paul S, Vancouver, Canada.
