I visited the British International Motor Show on Saturday as part of my process for helping the Law of Attraction (you will have heard about this in The Secret) work in my life.

For it to work for me I need more than just thought. I need to see and feel, to smell and live the things that I want in my life. So a visit to see some of the best cars in the world makes perfect sense. But that’s not the point of this post…

There is so much more to The Secret than first appears obvious. It is possible to attract anything you want into your life and the best way is to start small and build your belief that it works.

In my free report – The Best Four Letter Word – FREE download at top right of this page – I give three examples of this working in my life long before I had any idea what was really happening. On Saturday, I noticed some incredible things, even though I wasn’t trying. It all comes naturally to me now. The difference is that now I know why these things occur.

Let me ask you some questions:

• Do you find people are always polite and helpful to you?
• Do people always smile when they meet you? I mean, ticket collectors, service staff, stewards etc.
• Do people go out of their way to help you, without you asking?

Whether you realise it or not, you control those things.

I always have a big smile and a few words to say to everyone. Not about the weather but something personal to them.

The response is brilliant. I get upgrades, I get special service, I get extra help but above all I get smiles. The benefit to me is I feel happier and good about myself. And that starts the attraction process. The next person I meet is already pleased to meet me.

Tills open and I get called to the front of the line. Coincidence? You may think so but I know differently.

Give it a try. I promise you it works.

On Saturday I had a great time with about 8 people I’d never met before. They all went out of their way to give me extra help.

• Instead of just pointing “it’s over there” I was escorted where I wanted to go.
• Rather than being left to collect the jacket I left behind, I was remembered and found amongst hundreds of people.
• Instead of a grunted thanks I had a great laugh & joke with people who looked bored & disinterested in their jobs.

Most people would just walk straight past the ticket collector. They would never have any interaction and would not fire themselves or the other person up with a smile.

It takes only about 20 seconds to make someone feel great. And you’re the ultimate beneficiary. How good is that?

Another persons attitude is a reflection of your own.

Now here’s my revelation about The Secret and the Law of Attraction in general.

For years I’d stand in front of the mirror in the morning repeating my affirmations and waiting for my life of wonder to appear.

Strange it never did.

Jobs offers appeared, business opportunities came and went but that earth shattering change in my fortunes remained elusive.

In the Secret Movie (you can watch part of the movie below) we are told that really successful people kept the secret to themselves so that others couldn’t copy what they were doing.

It didn’t matter – nor would it today.

That’s because most people will never do anything with the information even when they know the secret!

The Secret will not work on its own. It needs action. It needs each of us to do something other than chant affirmations, think positive thoughts or focus on what we truly want.

Sure, without those ingredients what you want may never arrive but even with them unless you take action nothing will ever change.

So start small, attract a few great people into your life. Take some positive action, smile and say a few kind words and really mean them.

The secret law of attraction really isn’t such a secret!

Make money with this business opportunity from home.

Yes, I’ve seen most of the promotions too. In fact I’ve been taken in by too many to mention.

I’ve wasted hours reading the sales letters or sales pages thinking to myself “this really sounds like it could be the one”.

I’ve bought so many programs that promise to make me rich that have failed to live up to the promise and most haven’t led to me being a penny richer!

But am I bitter?

Absolutely not. I’ve learnt something from each and everyone and collectively they’ve helped me move forward to where I am today.

But back to the question, can you really make money running with a business opportunity you find arriving on your door mat or on a web page?

Yes you can BUT…

The person who’ll make most money is the one selling you the program / book / course what you need is something you don’t see offered that often.

You need a real business based on timeless principles not a “here today gone tomorrow” fad.

Can you really see yourself making a fortune running a business about Forex Trading, if you have no idea what that means?

The way to succeed and build a business to support your lifestyle is to do something you love. Ah, but there’s no money in that Mark.

So thought an Australian guy named Alborz when he started writing about the thing he loves – cars. No manufacturer was going to pay a commission to someone writing about cars but to Alborz surprise he now makes around $50,000 from his website and gets to drive some of the best cars in the world.

Could you do that? Without a doubt, if you have the desire you could build a business around a subject you love AND make a great living too.

Alborz started his business as a sideline while he continued his day job.

Take a listen to this interview – you may find inspiration to do something YOU love rather than buy another useless “make money with this business opportunity from home program.

So you’ve decided you want to run your own business.

You’ve mentally committed to doing so.

You’re enthusiastic, raring to go but don’t know what business to be in.

You know you want to work from home & also know you want to start part time.

Or maybe you’ve already taken the plunge but are not happy with the market you’re in.

It’s all very well me telling you you’ll have your greatest success following your passion but if that happens to be toe nail clippings through the ages it may turn out that’s not a profitable market!

It may seem obvious but the first thing to do before you start your business is to undertake a viability study.

You may have heard of Michel & Sylvie Fortin. Both are very successful online and offline and run a program called Success Chef. This is a top quality, high ticket program that contains multi media training for aspiring internet tycoons.

As part of that program they are releasing individual “cook books” covering various key areas that need to be in place for a business to be successful.

The first of these draws from Sylvie’s immense experience (she’s identified brilliant markets for many of the top producing marketers) and shows how to find a profitable market, research properly and ensure your success before you even commence trading.

Entitled, Marketing ESP Cookbook: The 4-Step Process to Finding Hot, Hungry Markets! this multi media program will ensure you do not waste money and time starting a business in a market that cannot sustain the level of profitability you require for your business.

Give yourself a head start, see if your chosen market really is the right place to be.

The biggest reason why most people don’t have want they want in life is that they simply don’t believe they can.

That’s a simple statement but but it contains so many different reasons for failure.

There’s the belief that only clever people can run businesses, only people with much money already, only people with certain skills, ideas, backgrounds, contacts… the list is endless.

Then there are those beliefs about money; it’s evil, money goes to money, rich people are arrogant, I’m not worthy, I can’t…

But honestly, they are all only excuses for not taking action which will mean making some sort of change.

The thing that sets all successful people apart from those who don’t make it is simply:

BELIEF

Yes, they 100%, totally, unwaveringly believe in their own ability and the certainty of success.

I’ve obtained a free gift for you that will help get your beliefs about money into perspective and I think you’ll find will make your becoming a business success so much easier.

Before you download the book (just click the book cover below) there are two sections in the book I want you to read and think about very carefully.

On pages 11-12, the issue of change is addressed. As you probably know, this is my area of expertise, I just love change (I know, I’m a bit weird – most people are really afraid of it!) because I know that the changes I make are for the best. If you focus on the desired outcome, rather than what you fear may happen, then the best you hoped for WILL come about. It is only the focus on the negatives that cause them to happen.

As an aside I play golf as much as possible. Anyone who also plays will know that water hazards cause many golfers big problems.

The cause of that is that most of the time they concentrate on NOT going into the water rather than focusing on the shot they want – landing the ball on the green. The negative thought creates the shot that gets wet because the subconscious takes the thought of water as an instruction.

Back to the book, I particularly like this quote:

When you change so does your world

There is no point in waiting for the world to change to your liking – it’s not going to happen. If you want something and it’s not happening for you right now then you, and only you, have to change something.

The other area is about doing what you love to do. And doing that to make money.

You see it’s all about passion. If you do something you hate how much effort and enthusiasm do you have? If your current job involves doing exactly the same thing day in day out do you find it so stimulating you want to tell the world about it?

You’ll find Money Beliefs a great read and I hope will open you eyes to a few possibilities.

If you haven’t started a business yet or decided exactly what you want to do I strongly recommend you read Money Beliefs first.

Good luck

You’ve been sitting at the red light for 5 minutes already. It’s a really busy junction and there are cars streaming through the green light and passing right across the front of your car.

You’re getting uncomfortable. Should I just drive on? Surely the lights must change in a second.

You wait a little longer. Nothing is happening. Nothing is changing.

You’re getting a little stressed. You know what the red light means. Just wait. But for how long?

It’s been 7 minutes. You want to drive on but you’d have to head out into the traffic that’s passing through the green light.

You wait a little longer. Still no change.

Your decision is made. You cannot wait any longer. The traffic lights are clearly not working correctly. They are not going to change.

You have to go.

What’s the worst that can happen?

A ticket for driving through a red light? You could probably clear that because theres’s clearly a problem.

Some abuse from other drivers? You can live with that.

A collision? Not good, but the traffic is moving slowly so you won’t die and probably wouldn’t even get hurt.

You put the car into gear and head out slowly into the moving traffic to be greeted by tooting of horns and gestures from the drivers that you’ve gone through a red light.

It’s very uncomfortable. You feel it’s a bit of a risk but you had to do something.

You could have sat waiting but nothing would have changed.

You did something. You acted. You took control. It felt scary but at the same time good that you were doing something positive rather than just waiting.

You moved into the free flowing traffic, the toots die down, the gestures stop and you drive on home.

No collision, no injury, no ticket. Not so bad after all.

Is it the same in your life?

Your stuck. Your stressed. Nothing is changing.

Little money; hate your job; hate your boss; hate your lifestyle.

Your life is at the Red Light.

Unless you change something, nothing is going to change.

It may be scary, it may be a risk but the choice is clear:

You either decide to move on or you put up with what you’ve got.

What’s the worse that can happen?

Your probably not going to die or get injured.

If fear is holding you back you need to think long and hard about this question:

What do you fear most, living your life the way you do now for the rest of your life or taking some well thought out action?

I don’t mean a leap of faith, I mean spending some time on you instead of say watching TV. Working out what to do, looking at the downside risks and taking steps to minimise those risks and maximise your chances of success.

Can you do it?

100% YES.
