Credit Crunch and RichThinking


I’m normally vigilant in not reading newspapers, or at least the ‘bad news’ in newspapers; I never read or listen to the news on the TV or radio. This doesn’t mean I don’t know what’s going on in the world, I do — it’s easy to pick it up from other people just in comments made here and there. I just don’t need to know the details.

Anyway, the other day I received an email from the RichDad, PoorDad people, with an article by Robert Kiyosaki on the current state of the financial market. I read it because I assumed that it would be a relatively positive take on the situation, and what the ordinary person can do about it. [read more]

The secret behind positive thinking


Using positive affirmations is a fundamental in the world of personal development, and increasingly in the business world. In fact, thinking and imagining positively has been around for a long time, particularly in the sports world where it has been normal for many years for athletes and others to visualise and imagine themselves in the winning position.

However, I’ve come across many, many people somewhat disgruntled with positive thinking, because they say it doesn’t work. They’ve tried affirming for what they want, and it seems so patently ridiculous that they give up. Mistake. Because it’s that very thing that holds the secret to the success of the positive thought.

Imagine yourself saying a statement such as:

How can a tiny body movement affect how rich you are?

- makes you feel instantly better

- fills you with gratitude

- focuses your mind on the good things of life

- can bring peace of mind instantly

- softens your outlook on life

- opens your mind to possibility and opportunity

- puts things into perspective

It’s very small, and very simple.

You turn the corners of your mouth up. That’s all. Try it now and see what happens.

Or notice how resistant you are to doing it, and the thoughts that go along with that.

Sometimes the smallest things can be the most effective. This [read more]

Monday morning heaven


This morning, Monday, the sun is shining, blue skies, warm air. After a week of greyness and drizzle, I was impelled to go out for a walk at 9.30am. This is normally the time I sit at my desk and write, or work or another kind. So going for a walk was at this time was a very different thing to do.

I knew, though, from past experience, that feeling this strongly about something meant I needed to do it, for I wouldn’t be able to concentrate on anything else until I had been outside. Usually I have been out and about very early, before breakfast, but not this morning. So I paid attention to my inner promptings, and have [read more]

It’s never too late for your dream to come true


Everyone has dreams, but most people don’t follow them, let alone achieve them. Usually, all sorts of excuses are readily available for why the dreams don’t happen ‘Not the right time’, or ‘I’m too old’, or ‘The opportunity passed me by’. But that’s all these are, excuses. If you have a dream, and you want it badly enough, you find a way of making it happen.

My friend is a case in point. Aged 65 and faced with the possibility of retiring, he allowed himself to remember a teenage dream. That’s a long time ago! What he’d wanted then was to live in France on a smallholding, and make a living from the land. Finally, he realised it was now [read more]
