Joe Vitale’s book, The Attractor Factor, is filled with a whole bunch of pump-you-up goodies. Here’s what Joe has to say about attracting things into your life.

1.  You are totally responsible for the experiences in your life.
That doesn’t mean that you caused them.  But on some level you attracted them. You are responsible for them.  That’s not good or bad.  Simply use the experiences to learn about yourself.  Get clear, and choose what you prefer to experience.

2.  You are absorbing beliefs from the culture itself.
If you are watching movies about violence, or reading the papers, or watching the news, you are filling your mind with the very vibe that will attract more of what you soaked up.  Mother Teresa said she would never attend an antiwar rally.  Why?  Because it contains the very energy that creates more war.  Watch what you absorb.  Choose what you want to attract.  Be aware.

3.  You are not ruler of the earth, but you have more power than you ever realized.
You can move mountains with the right thought and action.  Keep a balance of ego and spirit in your life, always striving to let your ego obey spirit.

4.  You can change your thoughts.
This often feels impossible to believe because it’s not normal for the vast majority of people.  But what you think is largely habit.  Start noticing what goes through your head.  If you don’t like it, start consciously changing it.  Choose new thoughts.

5.  You can do the impossible.
What you believe to be the restraints of time and space right now may simply be the limits of our current understanding.  No one knows what is impossible.  If you have an inclination to try something new and different, then so be it.  Go for it.  Make it so.  You may be creating a path never seen before.  Dare something worthy.

6.  Whatever image you add feeling to will manifest.
If you fear something, or love something, you are adding energy to it.  Anything you fear or love will tend to be attracted into your life.  Choose your passions wisely.

I think Joe’s onto something here, don’t you Dream Jobber?

When you are inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary project, all your thoughts break their bounds:  Your mind transcends limitations, your consciousness expands in every direction and you find yourself in a new, great, and wonderful world.  Dormant forces, faculties, and talents come alive, and you discover yourself to be a greater person by far than you ever dreamed yourself to be.

It’s funny how these things work out sometimes.

I’ve been thinking, talking, and reading a lot lately about success – specifically about how you define it and then go after it.

So, it was rather fortuitous when I ran across an article in a national health and wellness magazine by someone who turns out to be an almost-neighbor of mine — Lois Prinz — on how to attract abundance into your life.

I don’t run many guest articles, but I was so taken with Lois’ ideas, that I thought I’d share them with you and then see how they might apply to helping you identify and then find your dream job.

Here goes, Part 1 on Creating an Abundant Life.

================================= 

How do you measure prosperity in your own life?  Do you think of your prosperity as abundance, joy and fulfillment?  If so, you are allowing yourself to live your best life, while having it all. 

Or, do you think of abundance as a difficult concept to swallow?  Is it hard for you to accept the idea of prosperity into your life?  Do you remain financially stuck where you are?

In order to be prosperous, it is vitally important that, first, you give yourself the permission to “have it all.”  To create the flow of abundant thinking, our mind, body and belief systems must be in harmony with the laws and principles of prosperity.

How do you focus on creating abundance and prosperity in your life?  Are you choosing to live a prosperous life or one of lack and scarcity?

By this point, you are probably asking yourself, how can I create this flow of prosperity in my own life?

The answer is as follows:

The human mind is a powerful creating mechanism.  The absolute powers of our own thoughts are able to create anything, including abundance and personal wealth. The choice belongs to you in manifesting and maintaining an awareness of what prosperity means to you.  For example, when you become generous and are upbeat and positive, glowing with feelings of self-trust, you become more open to the great abundance available to you.

Take a minute right this moment to recall the last time you felt a sense of well-being and complete satisfaction in life.  Imagine feeling this way right now.

When your life feels full, rewarding and satisfying, you then can attract the best of the best into your world.  As you habituate and cultivate these satisfying feelings while remaining in this positive prosperity mind-set, you are more likely to harvest the abundance of (spiritual) riches.  When you choose to view your world accordingly, believing in abundance and feeling deserving of it, you begin to look at the world in the opposite light of scarcity.

Conversely, if we allow feelings of self-doubt to creep in; if we allow ourselves feelings of unworthiness, or undeserving, we attract the very energy that won’t allow us to “have it all”.

=================================

Okay, we’ll have more from Lois in a few days.

But, for now, I ask you to set aside a little time and really think about what we’re talking about here.  In your quietest of quiet moments, ask yourself if you think in ways that bring success and prosperity into your life.

Has this worked for you?  Tell me about it.

Canfield’s Success Principle #1:  Take 100% Responsibility For Your Life

One of the most pervasive myths in American culture today is that we are entitled to a great life — that somehow, somewhere, someone (certainly not us) is responsible for filling our lives with continual happiness, exciting career options, nurturing family time, and blissful personal relationships simply because we exist.

But the real truth is that there is only one person responsible for the quality of the life you live.  That person is you.

So, take a step back and ask yourself, in the 3:00 o’clock-in-the-morning hour, how much you believe what Canfield says here and how much you’re really willing to take responsibility for yourself and your actions.

More specifically, just what are you doing today to pursue your dream job?  And, how much are you letting others or circumstances hold you back?
