Step#20

Never leave the site of a goal without first taking some form of positive action toward its attainment. Right now, take a moment to define the first steps you must take to achieve your goal. What can you do today to move yourself forward? Even the smallest step—a phone call, a commitment, sketching out an initial plan—will put you closer to your goal. Then develop a list of simple things you can do every day for building next ten days. These ten days of creating a chain of habits and building unstoppable momentum will ensure your long-term success. Begin now!

Words of love

Love is …

Forgiving even though it's hard to forget; holding hands and never wanting to let go; hoping that tomorrow will be as wonderful as today; sharing secrets and whispers and star-spangled nights. And most importantly,

Love is…

Knowing that you'll never be lonely again.

Edith schaffer Lederberg

Words of love

Nothing beats love. Love is the greatest healing power there is, nothing else comes close. Not ancient cures, modern medicines and technologies, of all the interesting books we read or the wise things we say and think. Love has a transformational power.

Naomi Judd

Words of love

Loving you is as natural as loving sunsets, rainbows and April showers for they are all simply beautiful.

Stephen Taff

Words of love

Love does not dominate;

It cultivates.

Love has power to give in a moment what toil can scarcely reach in an age.

I'm so glad that you are here it helps me to realize how beautiful my world is.

Johann wolfgang von Goethe

Words of love

Every soul is a celestial Venus to every other soul….

Love is our highest word, and the synonym of God.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Step#15

Guidelines for goal setting (Programming Your RAS)

1) Commit now to spending ten minutes each day for the next four days setting goals. (NOTE: keep a permanent record of these goals in a hardbound journal.)

2) As you work on the goal-setting exercises, constantly ask yourself, "what would I want for my life if I knew I could have it any way I wanted it? What would I do if I knew I could not fail?"

3) Have fun! Imagine that you are a kid again. You're in a department store on Christmas Eve, about to sit on Santa's lap. (Remember what this was like?) In this state of excited anticipation, nothing is too big to ask for, nothing costs too much, everything is within reach…

Step#14

Have you ever bought a new outfit or car, then started potting it everywhere? Surely it's always been around you. Why haven't you noticed it until now?

Quite simply, a portion of your brain is responsible for screening out all information except what's essential to your survival and success. So much that could help you achieve your dreams is never noticed or utilized simply because you haven't defined (taught your brain what's important!) your goals with clarity.

Once you do, however, you'll have triggered your Reticular Activating System (RAS). This part of your mind becomes like a magnet, attracting any information or opportunities that can help you achieve your goals more rapidly. Tripping this powerful neurological switch can literally transform your life in a matter of days or weeks.

Step#13

We all have goals, whether we know it or not. No matter what they are, they have a profound effect on our lives. Yet some of our goals, such as "I need to pay my lousy bills", lack any inspiration. The secret of unleashing your true power is setting goals that are exciting enough that truly inspire your creativity and ignite your passion.

Right now, consciously choose your goals. Brainstorm everything worth pursuing. Then pick a goal that excites you the most, something that will get you up early and keep you up lat. Assign a deadline for achieving it, and write a paragraph describing why you absolutely must attain it by then. Is it grand enough to challenge you? To push you beyond your limits? To uncover your true potential?

Words of love

Outside are the storms and strangers: we—oh, close, safe, warm sleep I and she, --I and she!

Chance cannot change my love, not more impair.

What's the earth with all its art, verse, music, worth compared with love, found, gained and kept?

Robert Browning

Words of love

There is nothing more wonderful in the world

than the feeling you get from sharing,

and there is no greater happiness

than the warmth you get from loving.

J. Russell Morrison

Words of love

Let us always tell each other our slightest griefs,

our smallest joys…these confidences,

this exquisite intimacy,

are both the right and the duty of love.

Victor Hugo

Words of love

Time is…..

Too slow for those who wait,

Too swift for those who fear,

Too long for those who grieve,

Too short for those who rejoice,

But for those who love

time is eternity.

Henry van Dyke

Step#12

How do you turn the invisible into the visible? The first step is to define your dream precisely: the only limit to what you can achieve is the extent of your ability to define with precision that which you desire. Let's begin now to crystallize your dreams, and over the next few days from a plan that will ensure their attainment.
