"My face is set, my gait is fast, my goal is Heaven, my road is narrow,
my way is rough, my companions are few, my guide is reliable, my mission
is clear. I cannot be bought, compromised, detoured, lured away, turned
back, diluted, or delayed. I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice,
hesitate in the presence of adversity, negotiate... at the table of the
enemy, ponder at the pool of popularity, or meander in a maze of
mediocrity. I won't give up, shut up, let up, or slow up." --- Robert
Moorehead
Hello Naveen,
How is everything coming along? Did you print your first mission statement out? Have you read it twice today? I hope you have because if you haven't I'd really have to ask you to go at the bottom of this page and click on the unsubscribe link.
(Please ignore the next two paragraphs if indeed you have been serious and followed the instructions.)
See sometimes we get ourselves a teacher just to make us feel good. It gives us the feeling that we are making some progress. Well, yes while you are definitely making progress just by reading this letter, I am not the kind of teacher who is happy with slow progress. If we are to work together, I need you to make a definite commitment that you are going to do whatever it takes, no matter what - to achieve what you want to achieve. Unless you are prepared for a commitment like that, let's not waste each others time.
Okay I know I can be pretty strict at times but it's for your own good. After all, it is my promise to entirely redefine your reality very soon. And unless I am able to do that, what is the purpose of all this? So please follow closely the things that you are learning and do your exercises regularly. It doesn't take a lot of time but what it stands for is something very important: the quality of your life over the events! You don't want to grow older looking back one day saying life is what passed by when you were busy taking care of things. One of the very first things you learn when you learn how to redefine your reality is to focus more on the quality of your life rather than the events. So make a promise to follow closely.
(And you thought this was just another one of those promotional newsletters ha! :)
Okay, housekeeping over! On to today's lesson...
I remember I heard a very interesting story somewhere: It was about this eagle that had to lay its egg near a chicken community for some reason. Maybe it was in danger or it was injured or something. This egg was hatched by the chickens and the eagle baby started growing up in the chicken community. Although it looked a little different, everyone thought that it's just a little different looking "chicken". And life went on. It would go looking for throwaways and seeds and grains everyday with the other chickens and come back home in the evening back to the lair.
One day while it was as usual searching for food with its "family", the eagle baby suddenly noticed a large bird flying high above in the sky with its wings wide open. The baby was awestruck, it asked a fellow chicken what that was and the chicken replied "That's an Eagle! The king of all birds." The baby asked "Can I fly like that also?" And the reply was "Ofcourse not idiot! We are chickens remember? Our wings are not strong enough to fly like that." The eagle baby understood, but somehow somewhere deep inside it felt a strong urge to see the world, to fly high above, to soar bravely on the eternal winds of change... It felt sad wondering why it had to be born as a "chicken"? Why couldn't it be just born like an eagle so it could fly like that? As it wondered all those things, the eagle baby sighed deeply and went back to looking for grains.
Now be honest... Do you ever feel that you are meant to do much more than what you are doing right now? Do you feel an enormous urge to be free, to travel around the world, to earn more money than any of your friends ever imagined, to change lives of people, to give your family something they never dreamt about?
Do you ever feel that you are underplaying what you are capable of? Does your life lack that burning passion? Do you remember the last time you felt completely alive, when you loved your life, when you really lived? Do you want everyday to be like that? To be filled with abundance, fun, laughter, freedom and passion? Do you want to live a life where all your dreams come true?
Sadly even if you are capable of achieving all of that, your belief system is probably getting in the way. But that can change! And I know this for certain because if you were not willing and capable of becoming more than what you are right now, you wouldn't be reading this letter today!
And that gives me all the resources I need to help you learn to fly!
Tell me something, when you dream where you want to be or what you want to achieve, what is your mental talk? Let me guess. Is it "get real, you have no special qualities" or "you have to be born rich to avail a life like that" or "I'm not smart enough" or "reality is different, life is hard" etc... Have you ever wondered if that is your belief system, how far would you be able to go anyway?
My teacher, the world famous Hypnotherapist, Cal Banyan once told me there are two definitions of belief. The first definition is: "To believe is to not know!" Think about it, everything that you believe are basically things you do not know if it is true or not. If you knew for certain, you would say "I know!" Think about it, EVERYTHING that you "believe" to be true are things that you are not sure if they are true or not. Everything!
And that brings us to the second definition of belief which is: "To think and act like you do know"! Interesting isn't it? But that's exactly how our minds are programmed from childhood. First off, we learn to believe things we have absolutely no idea about. Then we actually pretend as if we know for sure that it's true.
Now that brings us to a very good news! And that is we get to choose our beliefs! Now I am not asking you to go create a new religion, there are thousands of other self limiting beliefs that we have about ourselves that continuously hold us back.
For example, some people find that being pessimistic is smarter than being optimistic. They say it's a kind of safety net; if it doesn't work out, what the hell I wasn't expecting it anyway! I marvel at the fact that these people actually succeed "sometimes"! I mean seriously, with that kind of a belief system, I wouldn't be surprised if they failed "all the time"!
Here is what I believe (and I have modeled this from the people who I found enjoys massive success), I believe I will ALWAYS succeed! No matter how difficult the circumstances. And when I sometimes fail (which is only natural) I tell myself I have learnt my lesson and now I have even better chance of succeeding!
You know what effect this belief system has on me? First off, I'm not afraid to fail, because if I fail then I have gathered valuable experience (which means I succeeded in some way!). Secondly, I am at my best performing state because I already know I WILL succeed.
There are times however when I have a nagging belief that I'm not able to sort out by myself. These are the times I'll find a teacher who can prove me wrong. If I cannot find a teacher, I'll see a Hypnotherapist (and I am not ashamed even if I have a waiting list for my own clients). The point is I will do whatever it takes no matter what to debug my mind of all the negative programming that is there. After all, it is my most valuable asset. I'll invest all my money if I have to, to keep it performing optimally.
See human minds are like computers. Sometimes we pick up these little virus programs while "browsing" through life and we can either slow down or start acting in ways that are not beneficial for us. So what do we do when we have a virus attack on our new computer? Do we throw it away? Ofcourse not, we run an anti virus software to get rid of the viruses. Similarly hypnosis, NLP, affirmation, meditation etc are all antivirus programs designed to clean your mind.
Now the question is whether or not you are going to take some action and get rid of the viruses of your mind? Whether or not you will take necessary action until you have brought yourself to the point where you are able to truly believe you will ALWAYS succeed!
Day 03: Exercise 01: Memorize the following statement and repeat it in your head as many times as possible every day --- "I am willing to do whatever it takes, no matter what, to make myself better and better, everyday in everyway." The more you repeat this silently and aloud, the more your mind will open up to the possibilities.
Day 03: Exercise 02: Make a list of ten things you want to learn or do that you think will stretch your limits beyond who you are now. Don't do anything with the list. Just write it down on a piece of paper, that's it. (If you have already bought Redefine Your Reality, read Chapter 26 now: The Billion Dollar Question)
In the end, if this letter has really touched your soul, if it got you thinking about what really is your true potential, if you are ready to bring yourself to the optimally performing state, go and get a copy of the Redefine Your Reality ebook at ---

And you will surprise yourself!
