Are You 'What-iffing' Yourself To Certain Failure?
Have you realized that many of your worries about the future begin with 'what-if?' "What if I fail?" "What if I get hurt by taking this risk?'
'What-iffing', as I like to call it, occurs when you make negative predictions about the future. One negative thought pops into your mind and before you know it, the negative thoughts have spiralled out of control. That's because negative thoughts, just like positive ones, feed off each other.
For example, you may be worried about loosing your job. Then you think "What if I loose my job?" That leads to another thought, "What if I can't find another job?" which leads to another what-if. And before long you've what-iffed yourself into living under a bridge.
So, how do you stop this negative spiral? A simple 3 step procedure is all that's needed.
Recognize the negative thought.
Replace it with a positive and empowering one.
Reinforce the positive thought to make it a habitual way of thinking.
Let's look at each step in a bit more detail:
Recognize: Keep a small notebook. each time you feel a 'what-if' coming on, write it down. This step alone will make you aware of your negative thoughts.
When you have some free time and you're in a relaxed mood open up the notebook and read the first 'what-if' thought. As you read it ask yourself "And what if that did happen? Then what would happen next?" Repeat this process until you've uncovered your core belief.
Replace:Once you've uncovered your core negative belief you need to decide what you want your new positive belief to be. The new belief should be a reflection of the life you want to create. Phrase these beliefs in the present tense and use "I" statements, keeping the focus on what you want.
Reinforce: Now that you've written down these positive beliefs you need to write them on index cards. Read this card each morning when you wake up and again at night when you go to bed. After a while these new beliefs will become second nature.

Some of my Favorite Quotes by Bob Proctor - Teacher in The Secret
"95 People out of 100 settle for whatever they get, wishing that they had more all the way from the cradle to the casket, never understanding that they actually could have what they wanted."
Areyou like that? Do you have secret dreams that you feel will never be fulfilled. Are you settling for what you can get, instead of what you really want?
Or do you want to be in the 5% of people that get what they want?
Which group would you rather be in?
You may be thinking "Of course I'd like to be in the second group, but what choice do I really have?"
You do have a choice, and you can make it now. You can decide that you will not settle for less than you are truly capable of becoming, you will not settle for anything less than what you truly desire....and then take ACTION to move into the 'lucky' 5% who always get what they want.

5 Simple Steps To Manifesting Your Dreams.
3 Super Simple Steps To Manifesting Your Heart's Desires.
1. Believe that the Law Of Attraction Works.
2. Know what you want....and in most cases it isn't money! Dig deeper and get to the core of what you want.Very seldom does someone want money simply for the sake of it...most of us want money for what it will buy. For example you may want money so that you can travel or to buy material objects that you would enjoy using such as a luxury car or a beautiful home. So identify on what it is that you really want.
3. Focus on that object. Think of how you would feel if it were yours right now. Feel those feelings. Live in those feelings all day long.
4. Let go. Stop trying to figure out how the universe is going to bring something to you. Just believe that it will be yours.
5. Take inspired action. The Universe will give you hidden promptings to do something, go somewhere or talk to someone. Act on them.
