Instead I now use the phrase "Good Fortune" because to me it invloves the power of personal action. You have good fortune because you are acting and thinking in accordance with manifesting positivity into your life. Fortune favors the Brave - and to be brave you must take action. Therefore fortune comes when positive ACTION is taken. Without leaving a blatent URL link, I wrote a post that readers of this post might be interested in called "Never Wish an Irishman Good Luck" and you can look it up from my blog which is linked to my avatar. Thanks for all the posotive reinforcement of a belief that requires action! - Don Power I stopped using the phrase of wishing someone “Good Luck” a long time ago because to me it seemed to be asscoaited with random happenstance – something completely out of our control.

If you visualize a RESULT (the Lamborghini) without visualizing THE PROCESS, your mind can't accept the result. Top performing athletes use visualization all the time. But they NEVER visualize the end result (winning the race, winning the game, beating their opponents). Instead, what they visualize is the PROCESS: the specific MOVEMENTS they will make during the race, executing the perfect layup time and time again during a basketball game, the movements and counter movements they will make against opponents in a game of tennis or a wrestling match). If you give the mind an end result without directing it how to get there, the mind will NOT produce the end result. So, if you want the Lamborghini, then you have to visualize what if feels like to be in a sales call where you land a million dollar client, or how it feels when you write the perfect pitch letter and send it out to prospects, or the specific tactics and counter tactics you use successfully in a contract negotiation. (Sigh.) I really wish these new-age theories like The Secret would study how the brain works. It would be so much more helpful in teaching people how to SUCCESSFULLY use visualization to their advantage. As visualization is presented in The Secret, it's completely counter to how the brain processes information and manifests results. “The Secret” also missed the way the brain works.

Although, my learning has been from the other side, which is all the action in the world isn't going to get great results unless deep belief of success at the center. Seems to always come back to that one word: Balance. Have a wonderful holiday Randy! Great comments.

Your hard work and ability to manifest your dreams are founded in your own efforts. In terms of the law of attraction, I've had moments where I've been beaming with confidence and strangers have approached me in conversation (a marketer's dream). I've also sat in the same coffee shop in one of my introverted stupors (usually when I'm writing) and have had no one come near me. Our posture dictates how open we are to opportunity -- our mindset dictates our posture AND our work in the moment. Off to visualize a winning lotto ticket...

A person who has educated himself on the power of thought and uses it, can be much more effective in his efforts than one who does not. And that is because we are able to attract all necessary components, people, places and events which lead to inspired action, which lead to the results we seek. 'Thoughtless' :o) action will sadly serve you with much disappointment and frustration and the results will not come even close to those of inspired action. Nonetheless, ACTIVITY is definitely a key part of creation. Thank you and best wishes, Maria Proactivity is absolutely necessary, although I would make a note that inspired action goes a much longer way than keeping busy for the sake of making the impression that we are doing everything under the sun to create our dreams.

Thoughts, feeling/emotions and definite action are required to manifest what you intend on attracting into your life.

Positive or negative thoughts influence actions. If you have negative thoughts, you need to recognize them & refocus on positive thoughts before you take action. "The ability to convert ideas to things is the secret to outward success." - Henry Ward Beecher Proactive work to achieve good results can be analyzing mistakes to learn from them or reprogramming so that you don't repeat the same mistakes. If you don't learn you probably will keep repeating the same actions that caused failures. Just don't get stuck in analyzing mode so that you never take action. "There is no scientific answer for success. You can't define it. You've simply got to live it and do it." -Anita Roddick Achieving & succeeding in my career is something I have been able to do. I am confident & I know that I can re-create success in my career. I may not be growing though. If you keep doing what you are doing, you keep getting what you are getting. To grow you need to decide to change. “The first step towards getting somewhere is to decide that you are not going to stay where you are.” ~Unknown To create you need to get out of your comfort zone. This could be making telephone calls or talking to people if you are uncomfortable doing those things. You may fail many times before succeeding. Just don't quit. "Creativity requires the courage to let go of certainties."- Erich Fromm Don't wait for success to appear, take action to go along with your positive thoughts.
