How To Maximize The Power Of Your Mind - Day 1


Day 1: 'A Glimpse Into the True Power of Your Own Mind'

The first part of this eCourse involves you really understanding the power
of your mind. It's important to lay this foundation down first
because everything lies upon understanding the mind and how it works.
When I'm speaking of your mind, I'm speaking more specifically in terms
of your thoughts. Your thoughts have amazing powers that we take for
granted. In fact, your thoughts are the root cause for all the goals
you accomplish in your life.

The way it works is simply this:

You think of thoughts which then trigger emotions which then trigger
actions you take.

Thoughts -> Emotions -> (Thoughts + Emotions) -> Actions.

When you take those actions, you again have the power to think of how
to view them, which then in turn results in emotions and when those
thoughts and emotions are coupled again, that results in actions.
In other words, the whole process loops itself back again.
Actions -> Thoughts of those Actions -> Emotions
-> (Thoughts + Emotions) -> Actions

Before we go any further, it's important that we isolate the fact
that thought is the root of all action and hence goal achievement.
We know that goal achievement has absolutely nothing to do with
the circumstances we were raised in. People like to point to their circumstances
and use them as excuses as to why they are not able to achieve their goals
but we know for a fact that those who grew up in very disadvantaged areas
and lived in extremely unfavorable circumstances have been able to
supersede these factors and rise up to achieve their goals in life.
A little girl was raised in the inner city ghetto of Wisconsin by her
mother and grandmother. She frequently ran away from home, was
molested by her cousin and uncle at the age of 9, and had a stillborn
baby at the age of 13. Who was she? She was none other than
Oprah Winfrey.

A homeless man with a child to take care of while pursuing a very
competitive stock broker internship without pay, resorted to sleeping
in subway bathrooms while desperately trying to find food and shelter
for his child. He later went on to become a millionaire. Who was he?
Chris Gardner. You know him as the protagonist in the movie
"The Pursuit of Happyness" (yes with a y).

An immigrant with no money and belongings except for the clothes on
his backs comes to America, becomes a bodybuilding champion, a famous
movie star, and governor of the great state of California. You know him as
the one and only Arnold Schwarzenegger.

We also know that goal achievement has nothing to do with circumstances
involving physical handicaps. Ironically, it's those who've been physically
handicapped that have tapped into the power of their mind because they
were forced to deal with it as it was all they had. It's as if they were thrust
in a room to confront their own mind with the door locked and the key
thrown away. Those of us who have no physical handicaps usually take
our minds for granted because we were not forced to face it on a similar
one on one fashion.

To illustrate, there was once a young boy whose lower part of his body
got severely burned in an accident. The doctor told the mother that the
boy would become a cripple for the rest of his life, yet this boy made up
in his mind that he would walk. When he got home, he was so determined
to walk that he threw himself off the wheelchair and clawed his way to the
fence surrounding his house. He picked himself up by grabbing the fence and
started to drag his legs while traversing along it. He did this everyday. The
thoughts in his mind revolved solely around walking. He so desperately wanted
to walk that he eventually developed the ability to stand. Then to walk. Then
to run. He loved running so much that me made the track team in college
Who was this man? He was Glenn Cunnigham, the man who was to later run
the world's fastest mile.

There was another boy who was born without half a right foot. As a boy,
he loved football and all he did was think about playing it so his parents got
him an artificial foot made out of wood. With his new foot he practiced kicking
the football day after day after day in an attempt to make field goals. He kept
on practicing kicking footballs at greater distances and because he was so good
at it, he was eventually hired by the New Orleans Saints. In a game against
the Detroit Lions, with only two seconds left, he kicked the longest field goal
in professional football history, a 62 yarder for a 19-17 win in front of a
60,000+ cheering audience.

A man suffered a plane crash which resulted in a broken neck, a crushed spinal
cord, along with every major muscle in his body being so badly damaged that
all he was able to do was blink. He couldn't breathe without a respirator, he
couldn't eat, he couldn't talk. His kidney, bladder, and bowel did not function.
All he could do was blink. He made up in his mind that he would walk. His
thoughts revolved solely around walking. He walked out of the hospital 8 months
later. He's known today as the Miracle Man, Morris Goodman.

The common thread we see between people who've achieved the goals
that seemed impossible is they've tapped into the power of their mind. They
had nothing else. As long as your mind is sound with no mental defects, you
hold in your possession one of the most potent inventions in the known universe.
Your environment and circumstances do not matter. Your mind has the power to
supersede them IF you can maximize its power. Therefore it makes sense to learn
all about it.

Another common factor you will see is time. There is a period of time that
must pass for the goals you think about to manifest. It is wishful thinking to
suggest that if you think of a piano, a piano is going to magically appear in front
of you. What I'm saying is that because of your thoughts, you will initiate a
sequence of events that include getting the money to buy that piano, getting in
your car and driving to a store, going to another store because the piano you
wanted wasn't there, going to another one, finding the exact one you had in your
mind and buying it at the price you want, in essence, having your thoughts
direct your actions to get you the exact piano you had in your mind. Notice how
all of that began with a clear thought of what you wanted. It's like Napoleon Hill
said: "All earned riches, all achievement have their beginning in an idea."
Your mind is the ancestor of action. It's the greatest problem solver. It's
the most complex piece of technology in the known universe that can truly do
remarkable things.

But don't take my word for it. See what the great minds of history have to
say about it.

"What the mind of man can conceive and believe, he can achieve."
- Napoleon Hill

"The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heaven of Hell, a hell of Heaven."
- John Milton

"Here in your mind you have complete privacy. Here there's no difference between
what is and what could be." - Chuck Palahniuk
"It is the mind that maketh good or ill, That maketh wretch or happy,
rich or poor." - Edmund Spencer

"To see a thing clearly in the mind makes it begin to take form." - Henry Ford

"Men are not prisoners of fate, but prisoners of their own minds." - Franklin D. Roosevelt

"Whatever you hold in your mind will tend to occur in your life. If you continue
to believe as you have always believed, you will continue to act as you have
always acted. If you continue to act as you have always acted, you will continue
to get what you have always gotten. If you want different results in your life or
your work, all you have to do is change your mind."
"A man is but the product of his thoughts what he thinks, he becomes."
- Mahatma Ghandi

"You have powers you never dreamed of. You can do things you never
thought you could do. There are no limitations in what you can do except the
limitations of your own mind." - Darwin P. Kingsley

"You are searching for the magic key that will unlock the door to the
source of power; and yet you have the key in your own hands, and you may
use it the moment you learn to control your thoughts." - Napoleon Hill

Just as it's wise to build a strong foundation for your house, it's also wise to
build a strong foundation that your mind has the power to achieve all your goals.
The mind is the primary source of all goal achievement. Your mind holds the idea
of what you want to achieve. To maximize the power of your mind gives you
that edge you can use to easily achieve your goals. Schools and universities
do not teach this kind of material so it's up to you to learn it. This eCourse
will show you how to do it. In the coming days, you'll learn about the structure
of your mind, how to get a grip on it, what to feed it, how to strengthen it,
as well as a wealth of other information so stay along for the ride.
To the inevitable achievement of all your hopes and dreams,

Brian Kim

Wow, this is very inspiring. I think it encourage me enough to pursue goals I have already forgotten about.

I stumbled upon a good business site I want to share with you the Young Entrepreneur Society from the www.YoungEntrepreneurSociety.com. A great documentary about successful entrepreneurs.
