Magnetic Mind Power for Peak Athletic Performance Matt furey

Dear friend, The course you have ordered and now hold in your hands will have a major impact on your life. What you are reading and listening to are the strategies and techniques that I have used effectively over an athletic career that has gone past the 30-years mark. Some of the key points, mental laws and success principles in this course were taught to me, sort of by osmosis, while I trained with elite wrestlers and coaches. Others I learned through my study of Chinese martial arts. And a great many of them were tactics I picked up in my study of successful businesspeople and entrepreneurs - in the U.S. and abroad. What this means to you is simple: You are going to learn far more about the greatness that lie within you than you will ever learn from your typical coach or trainer. I first began learning about the secrets to success when I was in college at the University of Iowa. Later on, when I went into business at 23 years of age, I learned even more. Then, when I took up the study of Asian martial arts in the early 1990's, I began to blend, mix and match and find what truly worked for me. I began applying the principles and mental laws I learned in my research, not only to my business, but to wrestling, martial arts, fitness, and so on. The result was that even after taking a 12-years hiatus from athletic competition, I was not only able to return to the arena, but when I did, my accomplishments far exceeded anything I had accomplished as a higt school collegiate athlete. Today, a gold medal from a world kunf fu tournament held in China sits upon my desk. It is there because I learned that success is not an accident. It is predictable. If you simply follow the proven tactics, mental and physical, that other successful people have left behind - you will get the same type of results. If you want success - study success. If you want Magnetic Mind Power - then learn how to get it. What I am giving you in this course is even better than my gold medal. In fact, what you are studying right now is PURE gold. Why do I say this? I say it because the information in this course will help you achieve whatever you want in life. If your desire is to win athletic or martial arts title, you can make that happen. If your desire is simply to concentrate on perfecting you skills, you'll learn how in this course too. If you want to go beyond personal competition and coach others to success, this course is your guide to the top. Success is truly up for grabs. Whoever thinks about it the most and wants it the most - gets it. It's as simple as that. But the funny thing is: Those who don't succeed always think those who do are either lucky of were blessed with special talents that they don't have. Let' em keep thinking that way - as it makes it easier for students of this course to move to the highest echelons of success. Okay, enough intro. It's now time to dig in and let your life change for the better. Watch the two video first and take copious notes, then go to the audio tape portion, where you learn the power-packed details that will drive you through any obstacle you face and turn you into a winner that you instinctively know is inside of you. Best, Matt Furey P.S.: I have included some "lost" success archives in this manual that I wrote four or five years ago. As your luck would have it, I discovered them a few minutes ago, and am putting them in this manual as part of the course. You're going to love them.

When I was a freshman in high school I read a biography about my idol, Dan Gable. The book, The Legend of Dan Gable - The wrestler. by Russ L. Smith, talked about Gable's achievements, how hard he trained and how he overcame adversity to become an Olmpic Gold Medalist. It was in this book that I learned the following: The starting point of all achievement begins inside your own mind. It begins with a dream. It begins with a goal. While reading this book I set goals for my high school career. i wrote them down and I started working toward their fulfillment. One of them was to become a state champion; the other was to wrestle for Gable at the University of Iowa. At the time I set these goals I was a mediocre wrestler at best. Not only did I come from a high school that didn't produce champion wrestlers - but it was rare for anyone from my high school to even qualify for the state tournament. No one from my high school had ever wrestled in college. And I guarantee that I was the only person who wrestled for my high school who had a goal to wrestle for Dan Gable. From the time I set these goals as a freshman, I began working hard toward their fulfillment. I lifted weights, did calisthenics, swam, jumped rope and ran on a daily basis. I wrestled with the best men I could find and went to camps in the summers. The first time I had a winning record as a wrestler was during my junior years, when I went 16-8. With my final year approaching, I knew I had to really improve if I was going to win a state title and be recruited to wrestle for Gable. Despite spraining my ankle two days before the district tournament, (wich would qualify me for the state tournament) I won a berth to wrestle at state. In the first round I pinned my opponent, wich meant that to face the defending state champion. Wayne Love, in the quarterfinals. Love was the outstanding wrestler of the tournament the year previous and Dan Gable was in the stands watching the bout, as he planned on recruiting him to wrestle for Iowa. Very few people knew much about me as a competitive wrestler. I wasn't ranked in the top six in the state, and no one ever heard of anyone from my school doing anything in wrestling. But surprises happen in the state meet, and I defeated Love. In the semi-finals I defeated the number three ranked man in the state and felt certain that I would win the state title the next day. But when I sat in the stands waiting for my title bout, I was unable to focus on my goal any longer. I was more afraid of losing than I was excited about winning, and when the final buzzer sounded, I went home with a second place medal, losing the match by one point, 7-6. the defeat was painful, but I learned a lesson from it that I am unable to forget. I learned the importance mental focus has on the outcome of a wrestling match. When I was focussed on what I wanted, I won. When I focussed on what I didn't want, I usually lost. Despite my defeat, I attracted the attention of Gable, who remembered my victory over the defending state champion. I signed a national letter of intent to wrestle for Gable the next fall, and when I joined the team in Iowa City, I was surrounded by a group of national champions and Olympians, who instinctively knew the value of focussing. One of the first things I learned at the University of Iowa was...

KEEP YOUR MIND ON THE THINGS YOU WANT, AND OFF THE THINGS YOU DON'T WANT.

Each year in college I learned more goal setting and focussing techniques, and began to read everything I could on the subject of mind control, attitude, motivation and goal setting. Although I was one of the worst wrestlers in the room when I started at Iowa, I continued to train. I was patient and I persevered. The physical and mental training I put myself through paid off, too. Even though I was not the varsity man in my weight class, I competed in several varsity matches for Iowa, and won the majority of them. Then, in the fall of 1984, I agreed to help Iowa assistant coach Mike DeAnna rebuild a doormat program, at Edinboro University of Pennsylvania. With Gable's permission I transferred. While at Edinboro, I hooked-up with two-time Olympic Gold Medalist BruceBaumgartner, who was Edinboro's assistant coach at the time. He and DeAnna were also students of goal setting, and I learned many valuable lessons from them. But the best information I received came after college. We'll get to more of that in a little while. For now, though, you really have to learn...

How to set a goal to focus on.

When I set goals for myself as a collegiate wrestler, the first thing I did was sit with a yellow pad and ball point pen before me. As I sat I asked myself what I wanted to accomplish during the season. I did this by writing the following question at the top of the page:

"What do you want to accomplish this year?"

After writing this question at the top of my legal pad, I began writing my goals down. I imagined that there were no limits on what I could accomplish and I let my mind explore all possibilities. I didn't worry about wether or not my goals were attainable, I simply wrote whatever came to mind. I wrote goals for the entire season. I wrote monthly and weekly goals. I wrote strenght training, conditioning amd wrestling technique goals. And I wrote daily goals that I could focus on in practice.

Listed below is a sample of the different goals I wrote in 1985, the year I won the title:

This season: win the NCAA title at 167 pounds This month: Win the west Virginia Open at 167 pounds This week: Pin my opponent from Kent state Today's Practice Goal: Score 25 takedowns on my opponent Escape from the bottom within five seconds Keep turning my partner with arm bars

now, what does writing these goals down have to do woth achieving them? Let me answer this question with two others:

1. What does taking the lens cap off your camera have to do with taking picture? 2. If my camera costs 100$ and your camera costs 3000$ but you keep your lens cap on and I take mine off, who will take the best pictures?

The answers to these questions are obvious. An inexpensive but focussed camera will always take better pictures than an expensive camera that is unfocussed. The same is true with setting goals. The mediocre athlete who sets goals and focuses on them can accomplish more than a talented athlete who has no goals and doesn't focus.

When I began my high school wrestling career I was not the most talented wrestler on the squad, buy I was the most focused, so I achieved the most. Now, if you know someone who is both talented and focused - you're looking at an athlete who will become one of the supremely great champions. Sadly, few people with incredible gifts ever focus on developing them. This give those of us who lack physical gifts the room we need to navigate the terrain, develop our skills with the help of mind power and surpass those who think that physical talent is the only thing needed. So, what should you do if you want to be a champion? The first thing you should do is take out a sheet of paper, like I did, and write the goals you want to achieve. The second thing you'll want to do is circle tha goals that you really want to focus and concentrate on. I suggest that you choose one daily goal, one monthly goal and one long range goal (something you want to accomplish by the end of the season). After you have circled one daily goal, one monthly goal and one long range goal, take out a 3 x 5 card and print your goal on it in block letters. For example, for your long range goal you might write, "I will win the State Title at 145 pounds (insert year)". For your daily goal you might write, "I score 20 takedowns in practice today".

What you do once you have these two goals written an 3 x 5 card? You take a minute to focus on each one.

How do you focus on your goals?

You close your eyes and picture the goal as if you have already fulfilled it. This begins to activate your subconscious mind as it is influenced by mental images and pictures. Now, while you are picturing your goals, you repeat the goal to yourself over and over. Say it silently as well as out loud. As you repeat the goal to yourself, do so with great conviction, as if you are trying to convince someone who is standing 100 yards away, that you are serious about what you are saying. Put deep emotion into what you are saying. That is the key to developing a burning desire to achieve your goal. Goals statement that are repeated without deep emotion do little if anything to create the burning desire you need to achieve. The goal setting and focusing technique described above will literally cataput you toward your desires, By envisioning an repeating your goal to yourself, you make a strong impression of it in your subconscious mind. Once you have a strong enough impression in your subconscious, you will literally start moving toward the fulfillment of the goal, whether or not you are consciously aware of it.

When I was in college, I had three 3 x 5 copies of my goal of being a national champion. I kept one of them in my pocket, another was used as a bookmark inside whatever I was reading and the other one was on my nighstand. Each day when I arose, I looked at the card, envisioned the successful completion of the goal written on it and repeated the goal to myself over and over. I did the same thing before going to bed at night. During the day, when I was in class, I took out a notebook and wrote my goal again and again. I sketched an image of the victory stand at nationals, and added a stick figure of myself standing on the top step. These mental exercises impressed my desires into my mind at a deep level. Doing them strenghtened my inner resolve; my intestinal fortitude. They were like eating mental protein. they made me stronger. Taking the time to write on those 3 x 5 cards and to write in that notebook is something I strongly encourage you to do. Failure to do so is akin to making a plan to fail. Being continually reminded of what you want to accomplish is essential to your success. Ralph Waldo Emerson once said, "we become what we think about most of the time." We have all heard the cliche, "It's all 90% mental." If this is the case, we need to train our minds, just like we train our bodies. Repetition is the key. Writing out your goals one time, or only thinking about them one time will not strenghten your mind a great deal. But writing out your goals and thinking about them each day will turn you into a living, breathing magnet. You'll begin attracting those things to you that you ardently desire.

Two final points:

1. You can also make a collage of your goals, by cutting out pictures of famous athletes standing on the victory stand or executing a technique. Hang them on your wall and put your face over the champions - and when you see it each day, get the feeling of what it would be like to be that person. 2. When you focus on your goals each day, don't worry about whether or not you can attain them. Simply imagine that you can. Fantasize. Make it fun. Unlike physical workouts, a focusing workout is done with a feeling of calmness and relaxation.

Staying Focused Once you decide upon a goal that you want to accomplish, one of the easiest thing to do is simply forget about it. After all, you have things to do at work, in school or at home. And you have a million other distractions bombarding you on a daily basis. This, no doubt, can make it difficult for you to stay focused on something you really want to accomplish. But staying focused need not be a chore. It really isn't as difficult as you may think. One of the keys to staying focused is something I learned while in college. I have always enjoyed reading the biographies and autobiographies of famous people. Earlier in life, many of the books I read were those written about famous athletes. Two that I remember most vividly, were those written about Gale Sayers and Jim McMahon, both of whom played for the Chicago Bears, although in different eras. In the Sayers' book, for example, it was sait that Sayers often took a seat in the empty bleachers of the stadium. While sitting there, he held a football in his hands and simply looked at it for long period of time. When he was asked about this behavior, he simply said that he was concentrating. In 1984, when I read about Sayers, I began implementing the practice. After wrestling practice inthe Carver-Hawkeye Arena in Iowa City has ended, I usually walked to the upper level, opened one of the exit doors and went home. One day that January, however, something inside of me clicked and I decided to take a set in the empty arena. I didn't have a football to hold. So I used the book I was carrying as my focusing device. I didn't open it. I didn't read a word. All I did was hold it in my hands and look at it as closely as I could. I concentrated on this book until it was the only thing I could think about. After a few days of focusing like this after practice, I decided to do something else. I looked out upon the arena floor, and with open eyes, imagined that I was wrestling in front of a large crowd. I quickly got the feeling of what it would be like to wrestle varsity before the home crowd, something I hadn't accomplished yet. Up until that point, all of my varsity matches for Iowa were in tournaments or when we visited another squad. So I made a goal that I would wrestle a varsity match before the home crowd. And I concentrated on this image as hard as I concentrated on the book I held. I captured the essence of what it would feel like to get my chance before the home crowd. Four days later, on a Saturday, we were scheduled to wrestle Penn State, and on Sunday we would host Ohio State. the day before the first match, Coach Gable told me that Penn State brought some reserves along and they wanted to have a couple exhibition matches. One of the guys they brought was a 177-pounder and the Iowa coaches wanted to give him to me. Even though I was a 167-pounder, I readily agreed. And even though the match was an exhibition, it was still a match in front of the Iowa crowd, and at home. I jumped at the chanced and trounced the dude, 11-3. Then, later that night, during the actual dual meet, Iowa's defending national champion at 190-pounds, Pete bush, trotted onto the mat. But that night, he was not himself. He blew a commanding lead, put in a dismal performance and to everyone's shock - got pinned.

After his match, Bush's roommate, Jim Zalesky (now the head coach at Iowa), told the coach that Bush had stomach flu and had been throwing up all day. When the coaches heard this they wondered if Bush would be ready for Ohio State the next day. They pulled me aside and ssaid, "Furey, we may need to use you tomorrow. Be ready." At 10 a.m. the next morning. I got a call from Mark Johnson, an assistant coach who is now the head honcho at University of Illinois. He told me to come weight in. I showed up 15 minutes later and made weight with my winter boots, jackets, jeans and everything else that would keep me warm, still on. My opponent from Ohio State was unbeaten and my record at the time was 10-2. I had never wrestled two weights up, but what the hell, this sounded like fun. Before the match I warmed up with some light stretches and calisthenics - then decided to run through all my pet moves in my mind. With my eyes open, I ran the slides; one snap shot after another. As I did this I mentally relaxed and felt totally centered. Little did I realise, at the time, that your subconscious is controlled and activated by mental images - and that was making my job that day easier. Amazingly, just like the night before, I dominated and controlled my man. I held an 83 lead going into the third period - then my opponent shot in to take me down with a fireman's carry. I sensed it from a mile off and drilled him with a "pancake" that immediately pinned him. This was not only my first win in a varsity match at home, but it was my first collegiate "pin." The crowd went wild. An Iowa reserve, wrestling two classes above his normal weight, had sealed the victory. Following the match I signed autographs for fifteen minutes while newspaper reporters gathered around waiting for a chance to interview me. The television cameras rolled as well and later that evening, highlights from the match and postmatch interviews with me were aired throughout the state.

Now, let me ask you: did the time I spent focusing on the stands have anything to do with what happened that weekend? Did the mental images I ran through my head while in the stands and just before taking the mat play a role in what happened?

You bet your ass they did. What happened was not mere coincidence. It was Universal LAW. We become what we think about most of the time. We become what we dwell upon with intense FEELING and emotion. Those two matches were not only in front of the Iowa crowd.They were two of the most focused matches of my collegiate career. Regrettably, aftr that week, I stopped doing the mental focusing in the stands drill. It took me years to understand what a huge mistake that was.

A formula for success In the book Iron and Silk by Mark Salzman, a story is told about Master Liang, a man who was once the tai chi push hands champion of Hunan Province. In his youth, Liang was also a champion weightlifter, but in spite of his tremendous strenght, when he began pushing hands he was easily defeated by everyone. In fact, during his first five years of practice, he lost every bout. How did this strongman eventually overcome his defeats and become a champion? The answer to this question will show you that strenght has a lot to do with the way that you THINK. What was Master Liang's success formula? First of all, he would go to the park and practice with the best push hands people he could find. Second, after he lost, he would go home and record every mistake he made in a little notebook. He would record how and why he lost. He would then spend time thinking about the mistakes he made and what he could do to correct them. Bear in mind, now, that he had to be doing this for five years before he turned the tide in his favor. that alone showed the strenght of the man; something we call persistence, determination and stick-to-it-iveness. After keeping track for five years, Liang started to win a few matches, and upon doing so he moved on to step three in his succes formula. He recorded what he did correctly. He recorded how and why he won. Liang continued to use this formula until he won every time he pushed hands with someone. Sure, he may have benefited form keeping the practice even when no one could defeat him, but the mere fact that he recorded the details of matches for so many years shows that he was doing FAR more thinking and mental imagery than anyone else. He not only went through the physical part of training, buy he kept track of the how and why of his successes and failures. He took time for productive thinking instead of simply going through the motions each day. This formula for success can be used to improve any area of your life. Whether it be sports, martial arts, public speaking, sales, surgery, invention of a product or a trial in the court of law - written acknowledgement of your mistakes is nothing to fear. the person who acknowledges his mistakes increases his mental focus and his vision become laser-like. Anyone who follows this formula is destined for success. The good news for those of you who are striving for success is that few people, and I mean very, very few, will even think of putting forth the mental effort. This makes room for you to trounce them.

On Luck In 1984, when I was a sophomore at the University of Iowa, an anti-Gable movement arose in several universities around the country. Wrestling coaches from California, Michigan and a number of other schoold began bashing the legendary coach, saying that he was "ruining the sport of wrestling" because his team were winning so convincingly that no one could compete with them. Instead of working harder and giving their all to beat Iowa, many coaches chose the easier route of whining and complaining. Fact is, Gable wasn't ruining the sport of wrestling by winning one national title after another, and people who thought he was were the same kind of people who believe that success is deternined by fate or luck. In the mind of the person who envied Gable, the key to greatness didn't lie in hard work, dedication, goals, focus and concentration. No, to them, it was simply a matter of having more good luck than bad. Without a doubt, successful people get lucky breaks, but those lucky breaks are caused by hard work and clear focused goal that you commit yourself to day after day. Luck is not a random, haphazard experience reserved only for special people. Getting lucky breaks to come your way is as predictable as night following day, so long as you realize that these breaks usually go to the person, group or team that works the hardest, has the clearest goals and the highest concentration of focused attention. When you have goals that you work and concentrate on, you will draw more lucky experience into your life. these lucky experiences are inevitable, but you can't expect them to come your way if you don't work hard and focus. I am not the only person who feels this way about the cause of luck. Hence, there are various mental LAWS that have been recorded over the ages. One of these laws is called The Law Of Attraction. This law says that we will attract into our lives the people, circumstances and ressources that are in harmony with our most dominant thoughts. For example, let's suppose you meet three people who want to learn grappling art. One simply wants to take a class that will be fun. the second person wants to attain a goal such as becoming a black belt. the third person wants to become a champion of the highest order. Now, based on the goals of these three people, you will see dramatically diferent levels of training, mental focus and commitment. And of the three, the person who wants to become a champion is the one who will work and concentrate the hardest. This person will be the student who take notes on what he is learning. He will start seeing books and videos related to the subject in places that he merely passed over before. He will start receiving information in the mail or from friends about various clinics and camps. Many times he will suddenly find instructors who will train him and give him the finest instruction available. this will cause the athlete to rise above the rest. He will have advanced skills that the others don't have.

Then inevitably, when this person is compared to the others, you will see a pattern. He will have shown improvement at a much faster rate and consequently, will have much better skills. In most cases, he will be light years ahead of the others. And guess what the other two will be saying about him? Will they be saying that he is good because of goals, hard work, dedication, commitment, mental focus and the like? Not unless the people talking understand Universal LAW and are exeptional human beings. Most likely these people will attribute all of his success to luck, genetic or another intangible. In many cases those who cannot compete with this person will look down upon him, and they will blame bad luck and poor genetics for their lack of skill. On the other hand, if you ask the successful athlete why he is successful, he will tell you that he worked hard, had goals and stayed focused. He may even acknowledge a bit of luck along the way, but he'll never lose sight of the adage, the harder I work, the luckier I get.

Key points to Note "Talent is useless without training, thank God" -Mark Twain The Principle of the SLIGHT EDGE Study the history of warfare and you'll find that the great military geniuses of yesteryear always began with the end in mind. They had a clear objective, a result they wanted to achieve. Once the objective was formulated, they mapped out a plan that took into account the terrain, the opposition and so on. How I won the world title in China. I knew it would probably not be within my best interests to stand there and try to out-throw my opponent with the exact same techniques contained within their system; or the ones that they used and practiced the most. I knew that the key to my winning was developing tactics and strategies that threw them off guard while giving me an edge. "Success is goals - the rest is commentary." -Brian Tracy What do you want? Start with the end in mind. Now make your plan in reverse. Building a new home - Cannot be done without blueprints. Creating a successful life cannot be done without goals. Dan Gable and the Power of Imagination - "I must have won the state 1000 times in my basement before I ever won it for real." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

27 Universal Laws for Turning Goals Into Reality - (video portion)

1. The Law of Cause and Effect - aslo know as the Law of Sowing and Reaping for every effect there is a cause - for everything we reap, we have sown something earlier - We become what we think about most of the time 2. The Law of Attraction - Every human being is a living magnet who attracts the people, knowledge, events and circumstances to himself through the power of his most dominant thoughts. 3. The Law of Belief - Whatever you think about and believe with deep emotion, becomes your reality - William James onec said, "Belief creates the actual fact." 4. The Law of Concentration - Magnifying Glass - Set as many goals as you'd like from ten to ten thousand. But don't work on too many things at once - build a fire under one thing and let it take off and the energy and success from that goal will "spill-over" and help with the others 5. The Law of Expectation - "I expect to win every tournament I enter." 6. The Law of Enthusiasm - "Nothing great was ever accomplished without enthousiasm." -Emerson 7. The Law of Desire - Obsession become Possession - How to make your desire into a burning desire that take possession of your mind and wants you whether you like it or not - How to make that happen? - Your desire must be so strong that it rivals the desire of someone being drowned who wnats to have air; it must be so strong that it rivals a slave or prisoner of war who wants freedom so badly that he will crawl through sewers, carve entrances through stone, and will risk his life or the cause he wants. 8. The Law of Excellence - Get good, get better, be the best. 9. The Law of Clarity - The clearer your goals the more powerful they become and the faster you will achieve them 10. The Law of Imagination - Napoleon once said, "Imagination rules the world." P.T. Barnum said, "Imagination is the elixir of life." Whatever you imagine with deep emotion is magnetized to you and you toward it. What you want also wants YOU. 11-12. The Law of Probability/The Law of Averages - You will have setbacks and failures along the road to success, but if you keep your goal in mind you will

eventually strike gold, hit a homerun, etc. 13. the Law of Practice - The only place success comes before work is in the dictionary; 10 000 repetitions for mastery; what focusing on the 10 000 repetition journey does for you 14. The Law of Flexibility - The more flexible your mind and the plans you have laid out, the greater your chance of success - Gable once told a couple wrestler, "you guys go out there with a plan and when the plan doesn't work - you give up. you need to be mentally flexible and find another way." 15. The Law of Persistence - You' re never beaten so long as you keep getting up for one more round. Vince Lombardi once said, "We didn't lose. We just ran out of time." Keep on keeping on. 16. The Law of Relaxed Effort - True mastery is only evident when you make your work, sport or job effortless. can you smile like Sara Hughes while you compete? Doing so will help you do better. 17. The Law of Equivalent Benefits - Whenever you encounter a setback, immediately look for the seed of an equivalent or greater benefit and you'll find it. 18. The Law of Structural Tension - how to apply it - Keep you goal and an awareness of your present circumstances in mind at all times. Before you decide on what you what you want in life - make a list of what you want to eliminate from your life. Nature abhors a vacuum and if you create a mental or spiritual vacuum by listing what you want to be done with - the good has room to move into your life. 19. The Law of Self-Praise (Self-Love) - Whatever se show gratitude for expands in our reality. It strenghtens the magnet. Conversely, whatever we criticize or condemn expands as well. This gets back to the Law of Attraction and the Law of Cause and Effect. 20. The Law of Self-Forgiveness - forgive yourself; forgive others - clean the magnet. Forgive means to "let go." Just let it go and move on. 21. The Law of the Thick Face - Black Heart - what it takes to succeed. Criticism form others doesn't penetrate your skin. In the pursuit of your goals, your heart is like a horse with blinders on. Also note that those who spend time attacking will never be successful themselves. 22. The Law of Courage - Whatever you fear diminishes when you face it with courage and keep trying. "Do the thing you fear and the death of fear is certain." 23. the Law of Expanded Comfort Zone - the more you push yourself out of your

comfort zone, the greater your success. The biggest enemy of success, achievement and human potential is the comfort zone. 24. The Law of Thought Substitution - Whenever you encounter obstacles and set-backs, whenever times are tough, whenever your training is brutally hard - focus on your goal instead. Change what you' re thinking about and you'll instantly change how you feel. 25. The Law of Positive Reference Group - You will become like those whom you associate with, whether you want to or not. If you hang with losers, you will become one. The GANG effect. Kid reforms his life while in prison and appears headed for a better life. He gets out of prison and goes back to his old group. Dead within a couple weeks. 26. The Law of Asking - Asking questions - Similar to the Law of subconscious Activity "Ask and it is given; Seek and you shall find; knock and the door will be opened to you." Don't just ask for what you want to be simply handed over to you. Also ask for answers to pressing problems. Ask for solutions. Ask clear, precise question that are positively phrased. Direct questions to your subconscious, then leave the idea alone, relax and let the answer come on its own. 27. The Law of Action - A body in motion tends to stay in motion until acted upon by an outside force. You will always achieve more through movement than through meditation. this doesn't mean that you shouldn't meditate or visualize. On the contrary, you should. Never expect the world to just hand you all the goods you want. Take action first, and when you do, unseen forces see that you're serious and come to help you. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Important Principles of Success and Achievement (audio portion)

1. I can and will be what I choose to be. 2. The Top Ten Goal List - or more. The top ten list is great for getting ou started. Bui it is also okay to make a list of everything you can think of. Mark victor Hansen of "Chicken Soup for the Soul" fame, believe in a goal list that is al least 101 items long, as it really impresses your subconscious to "think." Also, not discussed on the tapes, but equally important, is a list of what you want to eliminate from your life. know what you definitely do NOT want as well as what you definitely DO want. Prioritize your list of goals and decide on those that are most important right NOW. 3. Select 1-3 Goals to work on Right Now - But only focus wholeheartedly on one This one goal is your "definite major purpose." Write it on a slip of paper and carry it in your pocket each day so that at any time you can pull it out and remind yourself of your most important goal. 4. If the Goals you selected are long term, break them down into short term goals, something you can accomplish in one week or within one month. 5. Remember, your top goal is your definite major purpose - This is the goal that gives your life, zip, meaning and passion. 6. Take note of where you are in relation to the goal - Keep score 7. Make a plan - Then prioritize the plan. If you can't figure out a plan, turn it over to your subconscious. Also, if you can't come up with goals, ask yourself the question, "what are the goals I want to manifest, do, be, have and own?" Then ponder the question (|Law of Asking) and as the answers come, write them down. Yesterday I received a message that said, in effect, "by your answers we know how clever you are - but it is by your questions that we know if you are wise." This proves that the questions you ask yourself should be phrased in the most intelligent, clear language. When done this way - your mind goes to work to spit out the best answers. Ask dumb, lame, weak questions and you'll get the same kind of answers. Ask smart queestions - and sit back and be stunned with the answers you receive.

8. Manage each day - Finish the day before you begin it. 9. Remember that we think in pictures - Our Subconscious is activated by pictures that are mixed with Strong Emotions - Think in pictures about your goals all day long - As Emerson said, "we become what we think about most of the time." 10. The 3 x 5 Goal Card Technique. 11. The Mirror Technique - Spoken, emotionalized words are powerful - Get the FEELING of what it would be like to already have or be what you want. 12. Treasure Mapping - hanging photos 13. Keeping scores - Graphs and charts 14. Keep your goals to yourself - Only tell those in your mastermind alliance. When you blab your goals to others, especially to those who may not support you (or those who pretend to be supportive), you weaken yourself mentally. Let the magnetic power build within by keeping your yap shut. 15. My secret way to tap the Subconscious - Talks with an invisible guide 16. Never criticize those who are more successful than yourself - By law, you cannot achieve that wich you criticize and condemn in another 17. The Inner Smile - Smiling as you train or compete - relaxes your body and mind so that you can compete at a higher level 18. The Helen Keller Effect - the human mind is so powerful that it can literally overcome any obstacle 19. Chinese saying, "Better be born lucky that smart," and how you can manufacture luck on command through the Law of Attraction and The Laws of Affirmation, Mental Picturing and Enthusiasm. Tell yourself how lucky you are. 20. The chinese word "yi" and how you can use it to bring about dramatic change your intention backed up with your WILL - "BEING THERE NOW" gives you te good "BE HERE now" feelings 21. Why you should always think of everything you do as easy, even if it is difficult 22. The Chinese belief in the power of words on paper and how this relates to your

success - If you wrote this it must be true. Even if you tell a LIE, it will eventually be believed as FACT if you repeat it often enough 23. Discipline vs. Regret - the pain of discipline is temporary, weights a few pounds but has lifelong benefits; the pain of regret is permanent, weights a several tons and has lifelong repercussions. Make the choice. Do you want to discipline yourself and live the benefits of that discipline over your lifetime; or would you rether NOT discipline yourself and live a life of regrets forever? 24. Feed your Mind. Everyday spend at least 30 minutes reading, listening to cassettes and watching videos in your sport or endeavor and watch how quickly you start to leap frog all the others - and yes, even those who are more talented. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
