“The Secret” – Focus! Focus!
“The ancestor of every action is a thought.”~~~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
Im going to be taking a bit of time off over the next couple of weeks, so I may not be able to post here as often as usual. I still want to continue our discussion about “The Secret”, so do keep checking in. Also, as I mention a little later on in this post, there are ways you can be notified whenever I do update the blog.
I’m also going to leave the picture of the new butterfly on today’s post — well — just because I like it so much. It’s such a powerful view about what can be accomplished — no matter what the circumstances — if we just don’t give up. Sort of like “The Secret”, isn’t it?
“WHEN THE CATERPILLAR THOUGHT THE WORLD HAD ENDED IT BECAME A BUTTERFLY!”
If you’ve been following along with this blog, then you now have a real “leg up” on how to make things happen in your life. You know there is more to all of this than just wishing and hoping. You know that there are three principles that have to be met for the universe to provide what you desire.
Let’s take an example — and I’ll use myself and one of my desires to talk about these principles in more detail.
As many of you know, I’m not a young man. I recently celebrated my 73rd birthday. So, my desires for life may be a lot different than yours because the “things of life” for an older person are, perhaps, not as ambitious as those for someone in their prime.
With that in mind — I have a desire to make enough extra money each month to pay a couple of regular monthly obligations — and I’d like to have them paid off within the next few years. So, you see, I’m not seeking to make a million dollars. A good part of the reason is because I do understand the three principles. I not only need to ask for what I want — I also need to take action and that action needs to provide a value to others sufficient enough for others to want to provide me with the extra money. I also know that my ability to take an action may be hindered somewhat by the energy level of someone my age.
So, I ask the universe to please provide me with enough extra money each month to pay these bills down. I also include in my request the desire to learn “How” to go about doing that — (I’m not putting the dollar amount here, although I do ask for a specific amount of money in my actual request.) I might say something like, “How can I make an extra $XXXX dollars each month? I know it’s possible for someone like me to do this, because I see others doing it.”
“I never worry about action, but only about inaction”~~~ Winston Churchill
Once I’ve framed the request, I will keep focusing on that question of “How can I do this?” Since I already know about the other two principles, I’ll be on the lookout for clues and ideas of how to get this done. I know I’m going to have to take some sort of action — I know that action is going to have to benefit some people — so I have to stay focused and be alert to the answers that will be provided.
The ideas will start to flow. I might begin to notice people around me who are making extra money each month and see how they’re doing it. In my own life, I’ve begun to notice some new, and exciting ways to generate more income by marketing other people’s products for small dollar amounts. I’ve found a way to do that by taking part in forums that parallel my own interests.
I’ve also discovered that using video and audio in my marketing efforts is beginning to pay off. Sure, I need to practice these new skills — and I need to keep my focus on this goal uppermost in my mind. Those videos and audios have to show those who see them or listen to them that there’s something of value to them in what I’m offering. If they don’t see the value, or I don’t communicate the value clearly, they don’t buy, So, I also have to be sure that I’ve picked my market carefully and not try to market Internet Marketing products to a group of pet owners looking for ways to train their pets.
Remember, that you won’t get what you want just by thinking about it. If you just think about it without knowing that you need to be taking some action, your wishes may just be floating away. Be prepared to do something of value to get what you want. You won’t get more in your life by being lazy.
I know that for myself, I need to keep my desires within the ability of my energy. I have a lot of it for someone my age – but it still isn’t what it was a few years back. Nothing worthwhile is ever accomplished without paying a certain price for it. The saying, “You get what you pay for!” is true, especially when you know “The Secret”. When “The Secret” doesn’t work, it’s usually because people aren’t willing to pay the price.
“Believe and act as if it were impossible to fail.”~~~ Charles F. Kettering

Also, stay tuned here for an amazing special offer from my friends at SPIRITUAL CINEMA CIRCLE . I’ll be telling you all about it in May. Talk about value, this will be a wonderful value for everyone — one that will be a great gift for you and your family.
“Only as high as I reach can I grow, only as far as I seek can I go, only as deep as I look can I see, only as much as I dream can I be.”~~~ Karen Ravn
And, as I always say in closing — remember these words …
You are the most precious gift you can give yourself. Every day look in the mirror and say, “I’m available to more good than I have experienced, realized or imagined ever before in my life!” Do this every day while you look into your own eyes.
You are special — and you are loved. You are the greatest gift you can be.
Shanti … (A sanscrit word meaning, “Let there be Peace. Peace, beautiful Peace. Peace within, Peace without. Peace in this world. Peace for all beings.”)

Hi. I just stumbled on your blog and found it very interesting. I wanted to let you know that I found a website that is giving away free samples of a pet food that is made by Life’s Abundance. It’s derived from organically fed animals and has no wheat or wheat by-products. The site is http://www.precious-pets-paradise.com and you can get it from there. I just went ahead and bought the small size bag and was glad I did, my dog loves it and I feel much safer giving my pet something that is so natural and is not on the recall list! I’ve already got more and will continue to use this product. Thought you might want to know! – Bob Knuck
