Great in ' 08 - Part 9 (last one)!

Making resolutions, deciding, having will power and persistence all come from the conscious mind - which is only good for short term sprints, but long term results necessitate a sub-conscious make-over.

Creating new attitudes, beliefs and habits require a daily practice of impressing our vision and goals into our sub-conscious mind or we will always achieve what we've already achieved thus far. This is the key to success in creating permanent lifestyle changes.

Until you create new beliefs that match up with your new habits, you will be subjected to the same distractions, fears, doubts and self-sabotaging failures of the past. If you can stay intimately involved with your goals and fuel your desire with emotion; those emotionally charged goals will drive you to take consistent action. If you visualize what you want to feel and then 'feel' the feelings of having it now you will reach your goal. You've heard the term "act as if". Acting as if will help to recalibrate your cybernetic mechanism and the sub-conscious mind.

Though daily use of visualizations, meditation, scientific goal setting and other technologies you can reprogram your mind for success and create the life of your dreams. These techniques have been used by Olympic athletes, NASA astronauts and some of the worlds most successful and influential people.

Just as your car runs more smoothly and requires less energy to go faster and farther when the wheels are in perfect alignment, you perform better when your thoughts, feelings, emotions, goals and values are in balance. - Brian Tracy
