About this episode
Well its been a pretty eventful last week or two… Many people around the world are caught up in Worry, Fear, Doubt, and Uncertainty. But as I start my week, I am grateful and excited to talk with you about Prosperity Pillar #11. This Pillar can truly help you to maintain a focus of Positivity, Optimism and Hope during these Uncertain and Confusing times. So let's dig in a bit. I Attract Success Prosperity Pillar #11 As I’ve gone through my life, I have learned many lessons on how to stop chasing success and learn to leverage the many resources available to us to Attract Success into my life. I’d like to share a few of those things I’ve learned in order to help you do the same. Jim Rohn has my favorite quote of all time… Success is not to be pursued. It is to be attracted by the person you become. Learn to Stop Chasing and Start Attracting Success When I started my career in business (at a very early age), I felt the best way to create an amazing life was to work super hard and make a lot of money. This definitely got me quickly to levels of success I had only imaged I could achieve. But, like many of you, I realize that there was something missing and I wanted more. I wanted to have a life that made me happier and created more fulfillment. So, I started to live my life in a way that made me happy. I traveled and acquired many different things that you would typically associate with success and happiness. Again, I simply wasn’t satisfied with the happiness and fulfillment I was feeling. At one point, I wondered if maybe I just wasn’t hard wired for happiness. But when I heard the Jim Rohn Quote and started having some very specific conversations with one of my Mentors, I realized that my approach to life, success and happiness was the problem…not me. You see, I realized that I was chasing success too hard and I needed to learn to attract success, happiness and fulfillment into my life. This was not something that would be easy for me to understand or accept due to my driven nature, but over time I have seen (time and time again) that this principle is a key to Happiness in my life. So, now I have adopted the Mantra, “Take Action and Allow Space for Attraction”. This has allowed me to really benefit from both hard work and leverage of resources in my life. The Universal Law of Attraction The Law of Attraction is a principle you’ve probably heard of before. Many books and talks have been given on the subject. The law of attraction says that our lives are impacted by Universal Laws just as universal and proven as the Law of Gravity. Its estimated that the law of attraction has influenced over a billion lives since it has been reintroduced as a major concept in the marketplace. However, most people don’t really understand what it is and how it works. I encourage you to check out training from Bob Proctor, who really simplifies and breaks down the concept of the Law of Attraction. He says that LOA is governed by 2 laws (not just just one). The first law is the Law of Vibration. The second law is the Law of Attraction. Most people miss the first law which says…. The law of vibration is one of the basic laws of the universe. It decrees that everything moves, nothing rests, and we literally live in an ocean of motion. This is because everything is made of energy. Your body is made of cells, and cells are with molecules and atoms. What created atoms and molecules are the energies vibrating at different frequencies. When you think, you activate your brain cells, and you set up a vibration in your body. When you move your eyes to read this sentence, you activate your brain cells to do it. This also means that the vibration you are in will dictate what you attract into your life. If you are constantly worried and troubled, you will attract a lot of bad energy. And what you fear will come to you. This is why people often said, “You will become what you think about most of the time.” I’ll talk more about this later this week, but for now I’ve seen the Power and Effects of this in my life and if you really think about it…You have too… Everything in Your Life is Made of Energy I wanted to mention one other things I came across on this subject. Albert Einstein, one of the world greatest (proven) thinkers of all time was quoted as saying… Everything is energy and that’s all there is to it. Match the frequency of the reality you want, and you cannot help but get that reality. It can no other way. This is not philosophy, this is physics. I thought this was very interesting to hear from a Science based Thought Leader. But, the more I study quantum physics and success, the more I realize that most solid beliefs and Laws of Success are based in BOTH Science and Philosophy. So, I highly recommend that if you want more Success in your life that you start to understand the principles, laws and forces that are working to shape your life. You cannot just randomly go into the world everyday hoping to create something if you don't understand what could be working against you or FOR YOU. Attracting Success Requires a Strong Mindset There are few Mental Principles and Strategies I’ve learned to adopt in order to really apply this concept of Attracting Success. I’ll spend more time on these throughout the week, but here are just a few of the Principles I have adopted: Success Requires Uncertainty (life happens for you not to you) Surround Yourself with Positive People (energy will affect results) Learn to Change Your Paradigm (reframe negative situations) Focus on the Questions, Not the Answers (open your mind to possibilities) Start from Solution and Abundance (lack creates lack, solution creates solution) These are just a few of the principles that come to mind right now, but I hope they inspire you to think about areas that you might improve as you move toward Abundance, Success and Ultimately Become the Best Version of Yourself. Remember, that progressing in your Personal Development is one of the Proven ways to Increase Your Happiness and Fulfillment Level. We must always be Growing if we want to be Happy. Have an Amazing Week and I’ll see ya tomorrow with more thoughts and lessons from my Mentors and Life Experience. George Wright III
