Let us live our dreams

Live your dream
There is only one success - to spend your life in your own way."

Do you think you can be more effective? You do?
Let’s face it, the internet is full of information designed to make our lives more livable or to help us to make more money. But the problem today is we don’t have the time or ability to print out and read all those great books like “Make Money Fast With Your 8 Track Stereo” or “Cutting Your Toenails For Fun And Profit”. Nope, I haven’t read those either and it is doubtful I will even if I can listen to them.
I find I am much more productive driving to and from work (yes, I still have my day JOB) if I can listen to motivational information in my car. I download some motivational mp3 to my mp3 player and hook it up to the radio in my car and away I go.
The problem is that I’m not learning much listening to mood music or motivational taped stuff. I would like to be able to listen to Yanik Silva or Tellman Knudsen tell how to increase my income by 50% in three weeks or something like that. Unfortunately the only type of “motivation” that has been available up until now is audio books recorded by someone who wrote the ebook. This isn’t what I want - I NEED to know how the gurus are making the big bucks, not some ebook put together by someone as filler for their mailing list.
Not that I have gobs of time on my hands but I am now investing the time to read aloud and record every guru’s book I have in my possession so I can listen to them in my car. I’ll build my audio library like one never heard while learning a lot of valuable information.
Not only will I be able to retain more of what I read - I’ve read that reading out loud helps retain more, I’ll also be able to pop one of those recordings in the mp3 player and take it with me wherever I go. I’ve only begun this project yet, with the goal of recording at least one ebook per week, I’m forcing myself to learn new material every week.
We must always stay positive because when you are positive, it will keep your mind with an open channel.
Step 1
Fill your mind with positive things. Read encouraging, affirming books and listen to upbeat, happy music. Think about happy memories or things you have to look forward to rather than bad things that have happened or things you dread.
Step 2
Develop yourself spiritually. Research shows that those who are spiritual live longer and more satisfying lives.
Step 3
Keep positive people in your life. Avoid people who have a negative mindset and surround yourself with people who are upbeat, spiritual and fun.
Step 4
Practice positive thinking. Try not to let negative thoughts enter your atmosphere. Think instead of all the good things in your life, even if there aren't very many. Concentrate on your good features instead of your faults.
Step 5
Laugh often. Watch a funny movie or hang out with someone who you can be silly with. Laughter is a great way to get a positive attitude.
Step 6
Learn something new or take up a new hobby. Get out and do things you love to do and enjoy yourself.
Step 7
Reevaluate your situation. It's easy to think negative or pessimistic thoughts when something happens. However, when you think rationally about the facts instead of the fears, you can see a more positive side of things.
