Why do some people get what they set out to achieve and others simply don’t?
Some people achieve everything they want and others feel like that they have consistent bad luck with no success. However, does bad luck really exist? I don’t think so.
When people around you say that they have bad luck it is because they are not focusing on what they want, they are already doubting themselves. And when you think someone has good luck, believe me it has little to do with luck, it is about their mindset, positivity, self – belief, and having a clear focus on reaching their own goals.
The good news is, you can work on your mindset, you can change your self-belief and you can focus on your own goals.
“Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.”
This is what Viktor E. Frankl says in his book “Man’s Search for Meaning”, so if you can choose your own attitude and your own thoughts, then ask yourself “why do I focus on the things that I don’t want to come true?”
Rhonda Byrne explains in The Secret, “The laws of attraction” how creative visualization is a mental technique that uses your imagination to make dreams and goals come true. Used in the right way, creative visualization can improve your life and attract the very success you want.
So your thoughts can come true? Not all your thoughts, but those that are focused, well-defined, and often-repeated.
Thought is energy, positive thoughts change the balance of energy around us, you can visualize different circumstances and situations, and in this way, create a different “reality”.
For some people, this might look like magic, but there is no magic involved, only the natural process of the power of thoughts.
If, for example, you don’t like your current job and want to find a new one, instead of moaning about your responsibilities, your boss and your bad luck, change your thoughts and attitude, and visualize working in a better place, doing something you really would love being surrounded by people who motivate you and ultimately share your values.
For me there is no doubt that if you collaborate and surround yourself with likeminded people, share ideas, information and contacts you will succeed in your goals.
The ‘Master Mind’, as defined by Napoleon Hill in Think and Grow Rich is: “Coordination of knowledge and effort, in a spirit of harmony, between two or more people, for the attainment of a definite purpose”.
Be aware of your self-talk and enable yourself of a “Master Mind”. The more open-minded you can be and the more you share with others, the greater are your opportunities and possibilities.
As Henry Ford once said, “Whether you think you can or cannot, you are right.”
Believe in yourself with a Win Win attitude, you can be successful!
