Every day, despite all our best intentions, stuff happens. It just does.
Now, the ideal world is a wonderful thing, but in real life, it seems like difficult situations are always catching us unprepared, and sometimes it leaves us feeling less than capable of dealing with that ’stuff.’
In fact, for most of us (whether we’ll admit [...]

We all know how important it is to have a heart overflowing with gratitude.
Without it, our manifestation work will go nowhere, or worse, take a lot of wrong turns.
But sometimes it’s just hard, trying to break through the years of accumulated “complaint thinking.” Many of us (maybe most of us) have gotten in [...]

I’ve written before that you must have a prosperity mindset before the prosperity itself will bother showing up.
This article by finance advisor Francis Kier breaks it down to the simplest terms - what you do with one dollar is a good indicator of what you’ll do with a million.
So if you want success, prosperity [...]

Subscriber and friend Tricia Andrews sent me a bit of information which I feel is so important that I’m sharing it with you. Please read this. It’s important.
During a BBQ a friend stumbled and took a little fall - she assured everyone that she was fine (they offered to call paramedics) and that she had [...]

Randy was lonely. He’d never had a proper girlfriend. Anytime he had ever tried to ask a girl out, he always got so nervous and so ill at ease that the girl would shoot him down and walk away, usually in a huff.
His friends - the few he had - could see that his fear [...]

A few days ago a reader mentioned in an email that she was studying a personal development course, and that it was good, but…

You’ve seen the news reports. Maybe you even caught one of the interviews with the high school girl who started a wave of donations to hurricane victims - backpacks filled with the things children would need for starting back to school this year.
If you’re still working on getting your positive thinking to work, why [...]

You already know that I recommend grabbing control of your daily thought processes and using them as a powerful tool for directing your life.
Today, consultant Aislinn O’Conner presents a wonderful image that I think you’ll find useful - something that you should really be able to sink your teeth into.

Do you really understand just how much you habitually seek out certain types of experiences - and ONLY those experiences - in your daily life?
Everything we do - after a few repetitions - we turn it into a habit to be performed half-consciously. After that, it quickly disappears from our awareness as it becomes a [...]

I often mention the importance of being thankful for what’s going right rather than dwelling on what’s not working well. (See “What Do You Expect?” from Jan 31st and “The Inner-Power Emails” from a couple of days ago.)
But talking all around being thankful for things - it’s all just a long-winded description for being grateful, [...]

For every new business that survives five years, four others fail. And during the second five years, experts claim the failure rate remains around the same eighty percent.
That’s a survival rate of as little as four percent after just 10 years.
Experts differ on what causes such high attrition. Many blame insufficient money, [...]

About a year ago John (not his real name) began emailing me.
Normally I don’t have enough time to give in-depth answers for every email, but John always asked such straight-from-the-gut questions and made such open comments that I simply had to respond to each intriguing email of his.
Now what interested me most was the fact [...]
