HOW TO BE A WINNER IN LIFE
The 10 secrets of failure
1 - Remain positive all day long ....for no reason. This is emotionally unnatural! 2 - Discuss your life's objectives with negative family and friends.
3 - Accept gratuitous advice from unsuccessful people.
4 - Follow-the-herd....because that is what everyone else is doing.
5 - Watch TV "soap" regularly...this is guaranteed to destroy all creativity.
6 - Heavily mortgage into debt and absolutely guarantee high stress for years to come. 7 - Remain in a business/personal situation where you are perpetually unhappy and stressed. 8 - Tell yourself continually that you are naturally unlucky.
9 - Become petty-minded and envious when someone you know has a major windfall. 10- Make lifestyle decisions based on spur-of-the-moment emotional feelings.
It is not what winners do that makes them so successful, it is what they don't do! They totally avoid the above 10 secrets of failure, either consciously or subconsciously.
Now let's analyse each of the above 10 items and see how winners and non-winners handle each of these situations.
Item-1 Remain positive all day long.
Over the years you have been encouraged to think positively... that is to remain positive all day long...no matter what. This is unnatural because your emotions go through cycles. Sometimes you feel cheerful and happy while at other times you feel slightly depressed. This is the way your emotional system is supposed to work. When you try to alter it by consciously remaining positive you mess up your natural emotional rhythms. This can have serious backlash effects. The correct way to handle this is to make lifestyle and business decisions while you are feeling positive and cheerful and avoid making these decisions during your negative emotional periods. Accept the fact
that you will go through negative periods and mentally allow for them. If you try to act positively when you are feeling "down" you will feel unnatural because you are not in harmony with the universe.
Item- 2 Discuss your plans with negative family or friends.
It is a sad fact that many of those people close to you will be living very mediocre lives and it will get "right up their nostrils" if you suddenly become an achiever. In Australia it is called the Tall Poppy syndrome. Small minded individuals simply cannot stand the thought of someone they know achieving success....because it will tend to show them up for what they are....non-winners.
It is vitally important that you keep your plans to yourself otherwise these small minded envious individuals will try to place every obstacle possible in your path. They do this because they haven't got the mental drive and dedication to aim for the goals that you are aiming at. After you've
succeeded visit them in your new Mercedes....that will really get up their nostrils.
Item- 3 Gratuitous advice from non-winners.
If you tell others what your dreams are, you will be innundated with advice...usually negative. It is a different story if you ask a specific person for specific advice. But when all the losers around you offer advice....whether you want it or not...then you can safely ignore it. Just say to them...."What qualifies you to give advice? Are you an expert in this field?"...If they persist just laugh at them and walk away. You will eventually cut these people out of your life....so don't worry if you offend them right up front!
Item- 4 Follow the herd...
...after all...the lead animal knows where it's going, doesn't it? It is a sad fact that people like to be led!
That is why they go to church...they want leadership.
And people who join cults have totally given up on any original thought and responsibility....they want to go through the rest of their life in a hypnotic daze.
Since your early days at school you were in a position where you were "led". At school you had your teachers....before that you had your parents.
Then when you got your first job your boss took over the leadership.
Think about it....you have always been led! But....once you decide on an original and provocative course of action....you are on your own. You have cut all leadership from your life. You are standing alone with your own dream. You have left the herd. A lot of people find this
uncomfortable and seek to rejoin the herd. But after a while you become used to the strangeness of total self-responsibility and you revel in the feeling and success.
Item- 5 Immerse yourself in non-real media soap programs.
If you are one of those people who feel compelled to sit down in the middle of the day and watch Opra and other mind-numbing soap programs...then you are a lost soul. Success is not for you. Non- winners give their minds over to this type of garbage input....winners will have nothing to do with it because it is non-creative and intelligence insulting. If you are going to become a winner you must select mental input that is creative and inspirational. You must seek out new knowledge that embraces your dreams. If you have a goal you are working toward seek out mental input that embraces this goal. Do not let yourself become distracted by the mind-numbing garbage that accounts for 90% of Australian free-to-air TV. After all...this is your life. It is with you now....it is not a practice run. You either live it by shooting for the stars...or you give it all away and go to your deathbed regretting all the lost opportunities.
Item- 6 Over-mortgage yourself for guaranteed stress.
The one thing that totally destroys creative thinking and shooting-for-the-stars dreams...is stress. And the majority of stress in a younger adult is money related. That is....they are encouraged by society to keep up with the Joneses. So they go heavily into debt for a house and a car...then spend the next 5-10 years stressed out trying to keep up with the payments. A winner does not get into this over-mortgage trap. The winner would initially purchase a cheaper home or a house with a granny flat (which would be rented to partially offset the mortgage). The winner would save and pay cash for a quality second-hand car...to hell with what his/her friends and associates are driving! The winner would work his/her finances out logically so they could achieve a roof over their heads and comfortable transport without stress.
Because...when you are stressed about money you cannot think clearly....it eats away at you. It is a tragic fact that in Australia today 95% of the population are non-winners. They simply follow the herd.
Item- 7 Unhappy business/personal situation.
Every single free individual, at any point in time, is either doing that which makes them happy...or the least unhappy. And the majority of individuals spend a lot of their time unhappy. This can be caused by financial stress or worse still...emotional stress. If they are in a long term relationship that has fizzled they are "living a lie". It may be that they are stuck until the kids grow up but the fact is...they are unhappy.
If you are prepared to tolerate this state then it is going to be far more difficult to become a winner. You have extra hurdles to overcome before you can succeed. Or to put it another way you are "behind the eight-ball". If you take a long hard look at what is making you unhappy then you will probably be able to work out ways to remove at least some of the unhappiness. But as 95% of the population suffer from "emotional inertia" then you might be accused of "rocking the boat" if you attempt to better your lot in life. You might have to make some hard decisions if you are in this situation.
Item- 8 Considering yourself naturally unlucky.
Unlucky people are exactly that....unlucky! They "know" they're unlucky....so they are.
It's as simple as that. Luck is your personal psychokinetic resonance with your environment. It is controlled entirely by your subconscious belief system. If you deep-down believe you are unlucky then you will be. Actually this is one of the hardest belief systems to break. The easiest way is to write down on paper all the successes you have had in life....and keep referring back to them so that your subconscious accepts that you want to change your belief system. Tell yourself that you have had these particular successes in life and you want more. Then focus on the good things that happen to you each day...instead of the bad things which are usually easier to focus on. After a while this will become a habit and you will develop a deep-down feeling that you are becoming a winner.
Item- 9 Envy and petty-mindedness.
I always have a laugh when someone who has never had any money before appears on TV as the latest lotto winner and states that "this will not change my life...I am going to keep working at my job". What happens is this: The lotto winner gets into work the next day and all his/her workmates offer congratulatory remarks. But within a day or so the snide remarks start....such as..."here comes moneybags". Do you get the picture? The envy and jealousy from the small-minds starts to surface. Guess what? Within a week the winner usually gives up the job in disgust.
I had this happen to me when I won the major slots jackpot at Jupiters Casino last year. Each time I went back to the casino one of the regular woman players (I think she lived there) would make some snide comment such as..."well, you don't have to worry about running out of money do
you?"...or..."here's moneybags again".
I ignored her for a while but after one particularly nasty comment I turned to her and said...."Do you realise that people here refer to you as the GCSB?" She said..."What's a GCSB?" I calmly
replied...Gold Coast Stupid Bitch". She has never spoken to me since. Funny that? I wonder if I offended her?
You are surrounded by petty small minded people who would take great delight in seeing you fall on your face. Don't give them the opportunity.
Item- 10 Make emotional non-logical lifestyle decisions.
It never ceases to amaze me how otherwise intelligent articulate individuals will make a major lifestyle decision on the spur of the moment....based on an altered emotional state. They may have been pondering this problem for months but instead of sitting down and calmly analysing it out....suddenly leap off their chair after a few beers (or whatever) and announce to all and sundry that they are going to leave the wife and kids and shoot off to Antarctica to count polar bears. Or something equally brainless.
I remember years ago meeting a character in a mobile home park who had sent his wife back to NZ while he spent 3 months in Australia making a "lifetime fortune" out of this fabulous idea he had been introduced to. He told me that within 3 months he would have earned enough money to set him and his wife up for life. And the brilliant beyond-belief idea....AMWAY! He had signed up to become an AMWAY distributor. He had made this brilliant decision after consuming what I took to
be a 44 gallon drum of cheap wine one Saturday night. After the 3 months was up and he made virtually nothing and could not afford the airfare back to NZ. Then his wife rang from Christchurch to say that she was "shooting through" with a guy she had met at a party. Maybe they deserved each other.
Do not make any major decision unless you are extremely clear-headed. Bear in mind that this single decision could affect you for the rest of your life.
...
The big trick is to make sure your belief system is based on reality...then you can generate your dreams from there. But if you are already in dreamland then anything else will be non-achievable fantasy. So to make sure you are totally grounded I would like you to now read the following SETH based reality philosophy....then we will cover specific details of how you can become a winner. Most of this SETH material has been around for 30-40 years and has stood the test of time. SETH's explanations of matter and consciousness have been scrutinised by some of the world's leading physicists over the past 3 decades and no one has found any serious faults with his material.
Manipulate your own reality
In the most basic sense the purpose of life is being ....as opposed to not being.
In your system of three-dimensional reality you are learning about mental energy (also called thought energy or psychic energy) and how to use it. Knowledge about mental energy and its use is learned by constantly transforming your thoughts and emotions into physical form (your physical reality) and by then perceiving and dealing with the matter and events that are formed.
From doing this, you are supposed to get a clear picture of your inner development as it is reflected by the exterior environment. You participate in physical reality so that you can operate and
experience within this dimension. Here, you can develop your abilities, learn, create, solve problems and help others.
Matter is the shape that basic experience takes when it comes into your three-dimensional system. Your dreams, thoughts, expectations, beliefs and emotions are literally transformed into physical matter.
How Does This Work?
Every nerve and fibre within the body has an unseen inner purpose.
Nerve impulses travel outward from the body, along invisible pathways, in much the same manner that they travel within the body.
These pathways are carriers of telepathic thoughts, impulses, and desires containing all the codified data necessary for translating any thought or image into physical actuality, altering seemingly objective events.
This telepathy operates constantly at an "automatic" or subconscious level, providing
communication to back up sensory data. Telepathy is the glue that holds the physical universe in position, so that you can agree on the existence and properties of objects. In one respect, your body and all physical objects go flying out in all directions from the inner core of the whole self. The physical environment is, therefore, as much a part of you as your own body.
What seems to be a perception, an objective concrete event independent from you, is instead the materialization of your own emotions, energy and mental environment. Events and objects are actually focal points where highly charged psychic impulses are transformed into something that can be physically perceived: a breakthrough into matter.
The intensity of a thought or image largely determines the immediacy of the physical
materialization. All such images or thoughts are not completely materialized, in your perception, as their intensity may be too weak.
Creating and Manipulating Your Own Reality.
You must learn to listen to the voice of the inner self and work with it.
You may also simply ask the inner self to make the answers to problems available on a conscious basis.
You create your reality according to your beliefs and expectations, therefore you should examine these carefully. If you do not like some aspect of your world, then examine your own expectations. Your world is formed in faithful replica of your own thoughts... If you think positive suggestions to yourself about a situation you send telepathic ammunition for positive use. You must learn to erase a negative thought or picture by replacing it with its opposite. But do not attempt to think positive thoughts all day long. Let your emotional swings work in the normal manner.
You should tell yourself frequently "I will only react to constructive suggestions." This gives you positive ammunition against your own negative thoughts and those of others. A negative thought, if not erased, will almost certainly result in a negative condition.
Say to yourself, "That is in the past. Now in this new moment, this new present, I am already beginning to change for the better." It does not do to repress negative thoughts, such as fears, angers, or resentment. They should be recognized, faced and replaced. Recognize resentment when it is felt, and then realize that resentment can be dismissed. Initial recognition must be made. Then you must imagine removing the resentment "by its roots" and replacing it with a positive feeling. You must watch the pictures that you paint with your imagination. Your environment and the conditions of your life at any given time are the direct result of your own inner expectations. If you imagine dire circumstances, ill health or desperate loneliness, these will be "automatically"
materialized, for these thoughts themselves bring about the conditions that will give them a reality in physical terms. If you would have good health then you must imagine this as vividly as you fearfully imagine ill health.
You create your own difficulties. This is true for each individual. The inner psychological state is projected outward, gaining physical reality - whatever the psychological state may be... The rules apply to everyone. Knowing this, you should try to realize what your psychological state is and change your conditions for your own benefit. You cannot escape your own attitudes, for they will form the nature of what you see. If changes are to occur, they must be mental and psychic changes. These will be reflected in your environment.
Negative, distrustful, fearful, or degrading attitudes toward anyone work against the self. If an individual sees only evil and desolation in the physical world it is because he is obsessed with evil and desolation and projects them outward, closing his eyes to other aspects of reality.
If you want to know what you think of yourself, then ask yourself what you think of others and you will find the answer. True self-knowledge is indispensable for health and vitality. The recognition of the truth about the self simply means that you must first find out what you think about yourself
subconsciously. If it is a good image, build upon it. If it is a poor one, recognize it as only the opinion you have held of yourself and not an "absolute state."
You are not your emotions. They flow through you, you feel them and then they disappear. When you try to hold them back they build up. You are independent of your thoughts and emotions. You
