I woke up this morning to this link in my inbox. Most of you may not know that Brian is one of my business mentors. He is adding an EP of my CD as as bonus to those who buy The11ForgottenLaws program from Bob Proctor and I am grateful for his support. He has a great story. Hear it here and may it inspire to your own success!

Wishing you a wonderful day,

Do you remember that first spark of hope you felt when you watched The Secret? I clearly remember the desire that filled my heart, knowing that – Yes, I can make my dreams come true – FINALLY!
But how many of you soon saw that hope dwindle into frustration? How many of you (and be honest now) started muttering things like:
- “It seems to work for other people, but I just can’t get it right.”
- “I’m frustrated that sometimes I can get it to work, but sometimes I can’t. What’s the trick?”
- “Why am I having so much trouble?”
- “I think the universe is against me.”
- “I’m trying very, VERY hard but still nothing is happening!”
Don’t worry, you’re not alone. About 97% of people also couldn’t make the Law of Attraction work for them the first time round. Think about it, just like anything else, you have to practice many times before you see success. A child doesn’t learn to walk without falling over a couple of times, right?
But in practice, everything is easier said and done. When you’re frustrated, it’s hard to stay positive. And it’s especially harder to stay positive when the evidence all around you is screams negativity like the unstable economy or senseless acts of violence such as those recently seen in Mumbai.
And do you know what happens when you fail to stay positive? That’s right – you start attracting negative things in to your life.
So how can you make the Law of Attraction work for you – without getting frustrated? How do those who successfully implement the Law of Attraction do it with such confidence and finesse?
Well, here’s three quick tips so you will never feel frustrated or tired of begging from the universe, because you know how to start manifesting like a pro.
1. Allow Yourself To Receive
Just like a lost child who approaches a police officer and asks, “Excuse me Sir, can you tell me how to go to the post office? Can you? Can you? Can you? Can you? Can you?” Well, if the child goes on and on asking, the police officer can’t even give an answer, right?
Well, it’s the same thing with your mind. If the only thing your mind is doing is transmit, transmit, transmit, the universe — which is trying to respond — can’t give you a single thing because you’re not allowing yourself to receive!
So, have the confidence in yourself and stop exhausting yourself by running around person to person begging for riches, and then wondering why nobody is dropping a penny in your cup (Hint: It’s because you’re running away too fast for them before they can even reach for their wallets).
Just think of your desires and leave it out there, go away, and trust that your cup will be filled with gold coins (or whatever it is you asked for) when the time is right.
2. Be Patient With Yourself
Receiving takes time.
Sadly, many people give up just a couple of steps before the finish line because they’ve decided that if it’s not working by now, it’s never going to work at all. Worse still are those who throw in more and more energy because they think that with more resources, the results will come faster.
This is like expecting 9 mothers to conceive and deliver a baby in 1 month. You also can’t bake cookies in half the time by doubling the temperature. You’ll incinerate those cookies to ashes!
In simple terms: Everything in this world has a natural development time, and this fact will not change no matter what resources you throw at it.
So relax and be patient. Remember that you too, as part of the universe, are also governed by the laws of the universe, and you cannot change the natural development time.
If you remember this, you will less likely work yourself up into frustration, or worse, push yourself into a downward spiral of negativity.
3. Support and Educate Yourself
Like the child who is learning how to walk, you need support. You also need to guidance on how to do it, and also the role models to look up to.
Many people give up because they think that “The Secret” is the “be all and end all” solution. Well, it’s NOT. “The Secret” is just a small portion. It was never intended, and has never been, the whole answer.
Coming to the conclusion that the Law of Attraction doesn’t work when all you ever did to educate yourself was watch “The Secret” 19 times (without looking at changing the habits of other areas of your life) is like coming to the conclusion that exercising is not an effective way to lose weight because all you did is run on the treadmill for 2 hours a day (but you’re still stuffing yourself with fried foods and cheesecakes).
So seek and be hungry for new knowledge. Also, make an effort to be amongst people or communities where you can support each other, learn from each other and also share new knowledge that you have found.
While the Law of Attraction is not an overnight delivery service, it will indeed deliver, if you do your part too!

If you loved the movie The Secret, if it spoke to you, and you want to learn more about the Law of Attraction, did you know that there are other laws of the universe that impact our lives, whether we are aware of them or not?
Just as the Law of Gravity applies at all times on earth, regardless of awareness of it, so do these other laws affect us.

You may know that I spent a year in Bob Proctor's year-long coaching program and that was the catalyst for my to record my CD. A number of people have asked me what compelled me to make this long-time dream come true. And I can point to what I learned from Bob about the importance of goal-setting, of taking action toward that goal. I also clarified my life work, which helped me to expand my idea about being a musician to include how I might serve others through my music. Many of you reading this are also musicians and artists, and you know that perfecting oyur craft becomes all-encompassing, a point of obsession. It has to in order for you to achieve any level of mastery. But the service aspect has brought a new sense of purpose and satisfaction to my work.
So, the above link takes you to a Site where you will learn more about the universal laws discussed by Robert Holliwell in his book, Working with the Law. The book is fabulous and I studies it for a couple of months while in the Proctor Coaching Program. But I had always wanted to learn more. This course provides that extra in-depth study to help you to be more effective.
Did you know that your thoughts have a direct impact on your quality of life? Try this simple test: If you are having an unhappy day, aren’t feeling well, or it just seems as if nothing is going your way, stop what you are doing and notice what you are thinking about.
Now think about something for which you feel grateful (and don’t tell me you can’t think of anything; there is always something, and if are really stuck, make up something, anything). Really feel how wonderful it is that what you are thinking about is true. If you don’t feel really wonderful yet, think of something else for which you feel grateful and feel the joy of that. Continue with this process until you feel happy and wonderful.
Now you can take this a bit further and next think of something you want to bring into your life that you do not yet have. Think of it in the present tense, as if you already have it, and give thanks that it is here now. Do you feel even more wonderful? Good!
Another neat trick is to help someone else to feel good. When you notice something special or positive about another person and tell them, they will feel good about themselves and you will feel good for causing that.
Try these little exercises and have the most wonderful day you have ever had.
