The Real Secret, Is Personal Development

Why is this? You have to look at the world around us, and what type of conditioning you are receiving day in and day out. It is this battle that we have to fight to achieve and align with the universe to get the things we want. Those things can be love, cars, houses, money; you name what you want to bring into your life.

If you do not do the daily work and keep those negative thoughts and things that condition the subconscious mind. It truly makes it even harder to manifest those things into your life.

We have to realize that it is the incremental development of ourselves that leads to exponential reality in our physical lives. We must stay on track to condition ourselves to live the dream lives that we are after.

There are a few key to making this happen...

1. We need to focus on 1% improvement daily. Do not focus on 10%, 20% or even 50% just focus on 1% and the incremental growth and you will be amazed. Take the time to focus on 1% and if you do that for a year, and you will have improved your current condition by 365%!

2. The second thing we need to look into is doing that 1% everyday and not missing a day. The reason for this is when you miss a day you fall back about 5 days. It is like someone who quits smoking and does great for a year and then decides to just have 1. This one changes everything… Make sure with your personal development that you do not make this first exception! Once you get a plan together, stick with it!

3. What is the plan? All personal development experts recommend 30 minutes of personal development daily. How do you get that? Books, Seminars, CDs and MP3s, and coaching.

Whatever your plan is, keep it simple. This is the key to you manifesting an amazing reality. This runs very deep and has to do with the alignment to the universe and the energy that is out there. We truly want you to have a blessed and amazing life. You just have to put some things in place and it can all be there for you!

Law of Attraction - Three Secrets of Controlling Your Thoughts

The Law of Attraction states that we become what we think about most. This means if we can control what we think about, we can choose the type of people, event, and experiences we attract into our lives.

You can be thinking many thoughts randomly each day. So how can you control your thoughts and only focus on those which can bring you more good experiences?

Bob Proctor discloses three powerful techniques that you can use.

(1) Observe the feelings that are attached to your thoughts

Feelings or emotions can be classified into positive or negative. The former makes you feel good and is an indication that your thought is in alignment of your sub conscious. Examples of positive emotion is happy, excited, love, peace.

On the other hand, negative emotions make you feel bad and indicate you are not in alignment with your sub conscious.

Feelings are your powerful guidance system. When you feel unappreciated with your job, these are signs from the universe that you need to change your direction immediately.

It is important to take note that changing direction does not mean you must change your job. Instead, the real meaning is you should not ignore your feelings and should do something (example talk to your boss) to fix the problem.

If you are currently unhappy in your job and have denied your feelings, I recommended that you acknowledged your unhappiness and asked yourself what you can do about the situation. You have the right to feel happy in a job.

(2) Gratitude

You know you should always feel good. How do you always have something good to think about?
One secret is to express gratitude for your current reality.

Gratitude is simply an attitude for being grateful for what you already have.

Most people tend to complain about their current reality. They may complain about


(a) Missing the promotion in their job.


(b) Staying in a small house


(c ) Driving the small car

What these people fail to understand is when they think and feel negatively about their current reality, they are sending a magnetic waves to the universe that they want more of such things.

Conversely, even if you only have a 15 inch television at home wheres other people have 32 inch television, you can still be thankful that you have a television at home. Somewhere out here in this universe, there are still people who do not enjoy the convenience of a television at home.

When you start listing down the things you are thankful for, you will be surprised that you really have so much things to be thankful for.

You should express your gratitude at least once a day. You can do that when you are commuting to work, first thing you wake up in the morning, or last thing before you sleep.

When you express gratitude, you put yourself in a frame of mind of happiness. The key here is you are focusing on what you have and the energy you send out is you have a lot.

The universe will respond to your energy and gives you even more.

(3) Divert Negative Energy

Bad things do happen in our life. Such things may be major illness, retrenchment, relationship break-off etc.

When such things strike in your life, how can you stop having negative feelings.

What you can do is you should re-divert your negative energy into something positive.

For example, if you lose money in a business and are feeling very negative about it, you can shift the energy just by deciding how much money you want to earn back. The thought immediately shifts your energy from "I lost money" to "How can I make more money".

Now that you know how to control your thoughts, you are on your way to think and grow rich.

Law Of Attraction Is Magick

To many, the results of consciously using the Law of Attraction seem like magick. I've heard many teleseminars, the presenters in the movie The Secret and reading books on intention and Law of Attraction equate the results of manifestation to being like magick.

I've read, studied and practiced magick (or as friends and I refer to it "applied metaphysical phenomenon") for several years.

I spell magic with a 'k' to differentiate the use of sleight-of-hand from the occult sciences. It's a common spelling in occult writings. For years I also taught, sold and performed magic shows. So for clarification in my writings I'll be using both spellings. The spelling with a 'k' will refer to the occult sciences.

Now, don't panic about the word occult, dictionaries define it to mean secret, obscure or hidden. Hence the title of the movie The Secret is so appropriate.

Now, what's interesting about my studies of magick, is that it was packed full of ritual and ceremony. That was appealing to me. Some might say it's because I'm a recovering Catholic. I was also attracted to the occult because of the mystery. Who doesn't want to know a good secret? I also had a desire for personal power; I wanted to make things happen. This was in part due to my feeling insecure and with little self confidence. I thought that the magickal powers would make everything better. I was looking for the answer outside of myself, in the ritual and ceremony without looking inward for my own power.

Good teachers of the occult sciences and all teachers of Law of Attraction I've come across put the responsibility squarely on each individual's shoulders.

I can tell you that the same basic principles of the Law of Attraction are the basic principles of magick. Occult magick is a formalized application of tuning in the mind, body and spirit, also known as a spell, to cause a manifestation. Not so different from any teacher's Law of Attraction program than another's. It's just their spin, their experience, their way of sharing the same information. Much like what you read here.

When preparing for a magickal ritual, the practitioner will determine that which they desire to happen or manifest, some might call this a goal. Many systems of magick will start with a meditation or some relaxation technique, a key component of Law of Attraction teachers espouse is the practice of meditation or some relaxation technique. While performing the magickal ritual, the practitioner is to work themselves up into a frenzy, a higher state of excitement about their desire and to visualize there desire manifested. Similarly, Law of Attraction is based on energy frequencies and higher levels of energy focused through the visualization of the desire.

Once the ritual is completed, the practitioner is to release the energy built-up in the ritual and "let it go" out into the Universe to let the Powers That Be bring into being the practitioner's desire.

The Law of Attraction works like magic because it is magick. (Yes, I did use both spellings on purpose.)

The New Age movement; Neopaganism, Druidism, Shamanism, Wicca, etc. the numerous references of the occult sciences in today's society are all evidence that the secret is out in the public awareness. The explosion of media coverage of books and movies, the number of websites and blogs, the coaches and teachers are just lifting the veil of mystery that has shrouded the Law of Attraction behind the occult sciences.

And Quantum Physics is providing the scientific, empirical evidence that sorcerers, wizards and witches have worked with for centuries.
