How do You Discover Your Real Purpose in Life?

This is something that I have struggled with for some time. I would think I had the answer but just was not as passionate as I thought I should be if it really was my real purpose in life.

I have to thank Dr. Robert Anthony for helping me to know without a doubt what my purpose in life is.

At this time I would like to share with you how he helped me to make this discovery.

Dr. Robert Anthony recommended that you must first empty your mind of all the false purposes you have been taught, including the ideas that you may have no purpose at all.

There are many ways to do this and as he shares some are very involved. The process I used was very simply and worked for me very quickly.

This method was I consulted my conscious mind and declared my passions. He suggested that you say to your subconscious mind that you are ready to discover your purpose. Show me the answer.

Then I started writing down the things I felt passionate about. Things that when I talk to others about these things ,I get excited, heart rate increases, and I get focused about these subjects.

He said to keep repeating this until what you write and answer would make you cry. Guess what ? It happened!! I wrote down one thing and started to cry.

I tested it and every time I wrote this thought down, I started to cry again. I knew without a doubt that I had identified my passion and purpose in life. It was a very exciting experience for me and I hope that this sharing will help you as well if you are experiencing problems in this area..




Feel free to contact me if have questions!!

4 Key Elements to Changing your Financial Blueprint

Elements to Change




The first element of change is awareness. You can't make changes if you are not aware of the thing needed to be changed. You have to know it exists.

The second element is understanding. When you understand where your way of thinking has originated from, you will know that it came from outside of you. We have been conditioned by 3 primary ways. Those being verbal programming (what we hear when we were young), modeling (what we see when we were young) and specific incidents ( what we experience when we were young)
Our Subconscious conditioning determines our thinking. Our thinking determines our decisions and our decisions determine our actions which eventually determine our outcomes.

The third element is disassociation. When we realize that the way we are thinking is not ours but what we have borrowed form above programming that came from our enviroment we can let it go if we chose to. We look at where we are today and where we want to be tomorrow. We can look at this information that we have recieved and stored in our subconscious mind that isn't our belief and is no longer true for us.

The fourth element is reconditioning. We can start learning how Millionaires think by surrounding yourself with these people, reading biographies of wealthy successful people, exposing yourself to their way of thinking vs the poor people.

I have learned this insight from the book "Secrets of the Millionaire Mind" by T. Have Eker.

Change

Change- are You open to Change?

Sharing some thoughts regarding the many changes that have occurred, are presently occurring and will occur in the near future. You may be aware of these changes but not really given them much thought and how it will effect you in your everyday life.

I feel many of the changes the whole world is experiencing are due to the technology of today verses a few short years ago. You may think of them as trends or paradigm shifts.

My thought is paradigm shifts.Paradigms can be thought of as the framework that has unwritten rules but directs actions. A set of assumptions, concepts, values, and practices that constitutes a way of viewing reality for the community that shares them, especially in an intellectual discipline.

Many of you may have experienced the realization that as far as job security today,  there isn't any in our world today. As a result you may need to change your paradigm regarding your finances. The only security you will every have is what you create yourself becoming  a business owner.
When one listens to the gurus like Robert Kiyosaki, Bill Gates, Donald Trump you will learn of  one of the ways to become a business owner is with Network Marketing.

Some of the other areas that have been or will be changed by technolgy is the Post Office. On line banking, bill paying on line, email, web sites, UPS and Fed-EX has almost eliminated the need for the services of the Post Office.

Paper Checks are almost gone as well, being replaced again by online banking and bill paying on line, debit and credit cards.

Newspapers, magazines and books. Our younger generation do not read newspapers, they get all their news from the internet. Today using  the e-readers, mobile internet devices you can subscribe and access newspapers, books and magazines online. Just think of the convenience of these devices. It is so much easier and convenient to download a Kindle app and read all online. I find it so handy when having to be in a waiting room for a business or doctor to open up my mobile phone and be able to read or send emails or text messages, read a book, magazine or check Facebook. I no longer have to read one of the magazines in the waiting room that has been handled by ?? many people with possible contagious conditions. 

Land lines Telephones. Honestly I still have one because I have always had one, but as         i-phones and android mobile phones continue to advance there isn't a need for the land line telephones.

Music. Now you can download very inexpensively the songs and music you want and create your own mix. No longer have to store those CDs, records and the devices to play them. Plus they are available to you where ever you are. 
So think of the space you will save in your homes because you now longer have to store magazines, books newspapers etc. also the paper products that are saved as a result.

Television or rather the cable  companies. There are now many other options available to you. You no longer have to subscribe to a cable company receiving 100s of channels that you may only watch 1 or 2 of. Now can use Netflix, Lulu, Amazon and other services for TV programs and movies. You can also watch TV on your computer with far less commercials.

Privacy. How many times have you heard someone say they will not order items online because they don't want their information on the internet. Shall we let them know that even though they don't use the internet to make purchases their information is on the internet. Almost any transaction you are involved in will put your information out there. Please note..there is a push for all hospitals and doctor's offices to put your medical information online as well. 

I am sure I have missed some things that have been changed due to technology which will cover at another time as I become aware of them.. 

If you are open to learning more about the paradigm shift from employee to entrepreneur and a way to create your own economy just ask me. I have some great information for you..
