Prepare Your Affirmations Out of the three recommended techniques Dean Whittingham gives for Reprogramming The Mind, affirmations was the first one that I implemented myself.  I introduced visualizations and meditation at later dates as I decided to perfect one strategy before moving on to another. Having never done this before it took quite a bit of discipline in order to achieve a state of mind where I could automatically carry out my... 

Be In the Present To achieve self-improvement, one has to know oneself and be in control of your emotions and thoughts. Having control of your emotions and thoughts is important in being able to gain awareness on what you need to work on and improve on yourself, in order for you to achieve your goals. Meditation is one great way to clear your mind and achieve self-improvement. Meditation is more than just sitting with your eyes closed and... 

In one of the previous post, I mentioned how our subconscious can be reprogrammed to have new beliefs and enable us to achieve self-improvement. You can do this by visualisation, which can be either the use of visual aids like a vision board or mind movies, or just using your own imagination to visualise. There are other ways to reprogram your subconscious to achieve self-improvement. Affirmations One of the best ways to achieve self-improvement... 

Self Improvement Mind Power Now that I know what was causing my negative thinking and bad luck, it was time to change them into positive and successful ways of thinking which would ultimately lead to the good luck and success I yearned for.  I had achieved the first step of awareness, I now needed to implement a strategy which would allow me to get rid of these negative habits. As I mentioned in an earlier post it is a persons belief system... 

Stepping out of Comfort Zones One of the greatest hurdles that people face when taking the step to become successful is the capacity to step outside the comfort zone. The comfort zone is something that our mind has setup to protect us from getting hurt. Therefore, if we try and step out of it, our minds would tell us that we’re not supposed to be doing it, and we will feel pain, uneasiness and fear because we are not used to it. However,... 

The Same old New Year Resolutions It’s one of the traditions during New Year’s Eve when people start making new goals and new plans to start the year fresh. Some would want to lose weight, some want to make more money, and so on. The act of making New Year’s Resolution is a novel idea, but in reality, how many people have actually pulled through with their resolutions? I can definitely tell you that only a very tiny number... 

Awareness I mentioned in my previous article that the reason I was able to turn my life around was due to awareness.  I became aware of what was happening in my mind that was causing me so much grief and frustration. I needed to know: Why was I having such a run of bad luck Why was I unable to achieve success in my goals Why was I unable to achieve happiness Why was self improvement so difficult to achieve In his book Reprograming The... 

Most people wake up each day to go to work, attend to their kids (if they have one), go and do house chores, etc. By the time they finish doing all that, they realise that they haven’t completed a few more things or have not done some things properly. The mind is in a disarray, and all the pressures of modern-day life are sapping the energy out of people. I was in a similar situation. There was so much noise in my mind, that I can’t... 

Understanding that to have success in any part of our life ultimately lies with what thoughts enter our mind is one of the most powerful lessons we can learn. What I have found is having an awareness of the way our mind works is the most important element if we want change to occur. Reprogramming the Mind Creates Success I have often wondered why some people seem to be successful at what ever they do whether it is in business, career, sport,... 

Mind Power Through an amazing journey, one which I am still progressing, I have discovered the incredible force of mind power.  I don’t know when it began and I didn’t realise it at the time but I was using this power in such a negative way that my life was slowly destructing before my eyes.  Somewhere along the line I had changed from an easy going, relaxed carefree guy who loved life, into a short tempered, angry, negative...
