How Much More is Possible?

I’m reading a book that my friend Barbara Pellegrino gave me called "Life Beyond Limits" by Rik Schnabel. It’s a great book and I’m grateful to Barbara for sharing this wisdom with me.

The book talks about what Schnabel calls "Infinity Belief," which expands our awareness of what’s possible for us to be, do or have in life. I particularly like how Schnabel continually uses the phrase "more is possible." I find this phrase incredibly empowering.

It’s easy to get hung up on "how much" we want to grow when we set out on a new journey. If we simply focus on "more is possible," then we can naturally expand our belief that we can achieve something greater than what we’ve done before.

Having set goals is wonderful. Having clearly defined goals is necessary to get what you want. But life is not merely about attaining one goal and then giving up, we need constant growth. In nature nothing stays static. Things in nature either grow or die. The same is true for us humans.

It’s also easy to get to attached to an outcome. Statements like:

I’m going to lose 22 pounds in 30 days
I’m going to make $10,000 in the next 6 weeks
I’m going to run a marathon in 90 days

These are clearly defined goals. And goals many people would be happy to achieve. But do we really care if these deadlines are met? After all, if it took 45 days to lose 22 pounds, and took 7 weeks to make $10,000 and 6 months to be able to run a marathon, wouldn’t the person be just as happy 5 years from now? It’s good to have goals within certain time frames, but it’s more important to stick to the goal NO MATTER WHEN it will happen.

Schnabel points out that we don’t have to get as concerned with the goal (at least at first) if we simply allow ourselves to believe that "more is possible." More what? More life, more physical fitness, more money, more love, more everything…

Thinking about "more is possible" allows us to tap into our imagination and expand what is possible for us. If we start thinking about more possibilities, suddenly more is possible for us!

Rik is going to be in Hawaii in August. I’m excited to go see him speak & would love to see you there if you’re going to be on Oahu on August 24th. Here’s Rik’s calendar to see if he’s coming near you. I’m still reading the book and look forward to some more great insights!

Aloha,

The Law of Attraction Made Easy

I’ve been studying the Law of Attraction for over a decade. My first introduction to the term came when I was introduced to a book called "The Science of Getting Rich." Since then, I’ve read many books on the topic and have spent a lot of time discussing it with people.

When I first learned how to successfully apply the Law of Attraction I used it to get a perfect 4.0 GPA, have success with women, and make money. After looking for the "magic formula" for nearly a decade, I realized that all the books were talking about the same process. A process that can be broken down into three basic steps.

The Three Steps to Attract Anything You Want

Ask for what you want.
Believe it’s coming to you.
Receive it when it shows up.

This is the simplified version of how to use the law of attraction. It’s easy to get caught up in the more advanced concepts that fill many books on the topic. It’s great to go deeper into the law of attraction to increase your understanding, but it’s also good to know the simple formula so you can get some practical use from it.

This manifesting formula is nothing new. In fact it’s even in the Bible when Jesus says "And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive." (Matthew 21:22)

This is a full proof method for attracting anything you want!

It works! Try it. Test It. Acknowledge when it works for you by being grateful to the Universe (or God, or whatever you want to call it).

The reason why people don’t get what they want is that they get blocked on one of the three steps. Here is where people get stuck:

Being unclear about what you want (not asking, or asking for the wrong things).
Not Believing that your request is being brought to you.
Not Receiving by failing to see that what you’ve asked for is knocking on the door and you fail to open it.

In future blog posts I will discuss practical solutions to solving the issues that can block us from implementing the manifesting formula I’ve outlined above. Please feel free to leave your questions and comments to this post as I’d love to get your input and experience with this formula.

Aloha,
