			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I haven&#8217;t been able to record my next video, so until I get to it here&#8217;s a little challenge for you.</p>
<p>Imagine what it would be like to have everything you desire. Go on, imagine it! Use a pen and paper and write it all down. What do you desire? More money? Better job? Better health? Better home? Better car? Better friends? Whatever it is write it down in precise detail. Work on it for a  few days adding some more detail each time.</p>
<p>Now take you written desires and read them, close your eyes as you imagine being there, having that or doing that right now. Imagine it with all the sounds and smells. Get into the feeling, I mean get into the feeling, what I mean is, really get into the feeling of being, having or doing whatever it is you desire.</p>
<p>Now, how does that feel, to imagine you have already your desire? Good? Wonderful? Exciting? What you do now is vitally important &#8211; record that feeling, burn it into your memory. If you open your eyes and cancel all the good feeling by saying it will never happen anyway, you have just wasted your time. But if you remember that feeling, and practice makes perfect, then you can recall that feeling each time you think of your desires and goals. Observe what happens as you repeat this exercise over the next few weeks, who you meet, what opportunities suddenly present themselves.</p>
<p>Be grateful for your received desire, even before you have physically received it. The good feeling and the gratitude will greatly increase the possibility of receiving your desires.</p>
<p>Be blessed and have fun. Go ahead and report your experiences here, or come on over to <a href="http://www.jimsnetwork.com" target="_blank">Jim&#8217;s Network </a>and share in our Ask the Coach forum.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Do you have personal freedom? Do you consider yourself to be free? Are you free to choose in matters of health? Do you choose what you do with your time? Do you decide how to spend your money? Have you chosen the things you believe in?</p>
<p>My guess is that you want to say &#8220;yes&#8221; to these questions, but you are actually answering &#8220;no&#8221;. Why is this? Because institutions are deciding these answers for us. Yes it&#8217;s true! In all four of these areas of your life you have not and do not choose. You disagree? Let us explore.</p>
<p>When it comes to your health are you choosing what you put into your body or are you allowing the media, the supermarkets and even your family determine what you eat, or allowing your doctor decide what medications you should be taking? How many of those choices have you truly made yourself. In most cases I am sure you would agree you have taken the common route, the path of least resistance, and allowed society to tell you what to eat and what to do when you get a headache. And most likely if you were eating healthier you would not be having any headaches in the first place.</p>
<p>Making your own conscious choices about what you put into your body can have a positive affect on your health. Observe your body. How does it react and feel after certain foods? Avoid those foods that leave you feeling slack and without energy and choose the food that makes you feel good an hour after you eat it.</p>
<p>What about your time? Are you the master of your own time? Or are you the slave of circumstances and habit? How often do we conform to what others want just to keep the peace? It&#8217;s bad enough having an employer where we give our time for the money we earn, but what about the rest of our time? How much time do you take for yourself? It is important to pursue your own desires and dreams and satisfy your own pleasures. This is not to say you ought to ignore everyone else around you, particularly those depending on you. But it is important to get a balance and have time that is only for you.</p>
<p>I bet you think you have control of your money. Well apart from taxes (we&#8217;ll leave that one as we all enjoy the benefits of roads, transport and trade etc.) how much of your hard earned money do you spend voluntarily on things you actually want or need? Observe again how often you will buy something because the advertisement appealed to you, or the display in the store attracted you, or even because your friend said this is a must. After you buy it you wonder why or it lies around unused. How much food do you throw away becuase you fell for the big sales and specials and ended up buying much too much food?</p>
<p>So are you really in control of your money? Is your money serving you as it ought to? Are you treating your money with respect, because if you do it will return to you. Setting money aside for later is a big plus and a must. Small amounts mount up and you will be grateful for that years from now. I&#8217;m not saying to spend sparingly, that could stifle the flow, but spend wisely, and most of all, make your own choices.</p>
<p>One more thing &#8211; have you chosen what you believe in? Now when it comes to religious belief the answer is most likely not. You have accepted the beliefs handed down to you. The same is true about how you are currently looking at life, you got educated and got a job and pay into your pension fund because that&#8217;s what you were taught and what you subsequently believe in. But these things are nothing more than belief systems passed down to us. But are they the right things and are they serving us today? We need to take a close look at why we believe things and why we do things in certain ways today. Could it be that you are not meeting with success and not fulfilling your dreams because of restricting and limiting beliefs from the past?</p>
<p>We need to take control of our beliefs and choose what is beneficial and profitable for life and discard all that isn&#8217;t.</p>
<p>So are you free? Or do you need to make a few adjustments. Remember, everyone around faces the same challenge, so be gentle.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I want inspiration. I need answers. I want to know the right thing to do. Have you had these and similar questions going through your head? You analyse, you look at the pros and cons, you search for ideas and evidence, yet you still can&#8217;t make up your mind if the particular move you have in mind is right or not. Perhaps it is a decision over a relationship or a business deal, or whether you should contact that person or not. Whatever it is you wish someone would shout from heaven and just tell you the answer.</p>
<p>Right? Isn&#8217;t this what you have wished many times, many many times? What&#8217;s going on in your head? Where are the answers? Where do you expect the answers to come from? I tell you from where. From inside your head.</p>
<p>Does that sound amazing, or simply matter of fact. Of course the answers come from inside my head if no one else gives me an answer. What kind of answer is that? Well it&#8217;s not strictly &#8220;inside&#8221; your head, not there where all the intellectual thinking takes place. But the answer comes from inside you.</p>
<p>So what&#8217;s the difference? By &#8220;you&#8221; I mean the real being that is you, not the thinking physical being which is a part of you. The real you consists of several parts, or layers or levels of consciousness. There is the conscious mind, that part of you which you are aware of, the thinking you. Then there is the Sub-conscious mind. That is the part of you which is responsible for your habits, your  reactions and mind patterns. It is here, in the sub-conscious mind, where essential paradigms are formed, maintained and replaced. The sub-conscious mind is also that part of you which is connected to every other sub-conscious mind. We are all connected on this level and it is from here that information can be retrieved from other minds. Ideas are formed and the right people and situations are attracted.</p>
<p>But there is another, higher, part of your consciousness, that is the super-conscious mind. This is a hidden part, even more obscure than your sub-conscious mind. The super-consciousness is the part of you which has a direct link to to the Divine, to God, or the Universal Consciousness. Here is where true inspiration for new ideas and new ways comes from. The only problem is the intellectual mind, it is so busy thinking it doesn&#8217;t even know the super-conscious mind exists. Luckily we have the sub-conscious mind which can send messages to the super-conscious mind.</p>
<p>Here is how it works: First your conscious mind gets an idea, a desire, a plan &#8211; something it wants, something you want. Secondly the conscious mind, you, uses intention, repetition, affirmations, visualization and emotions to impress this desire, this image, onto the sub-conscious mind. Thirdly, the sub-conscious mind, now that it has a clear picture of what is desired (and it doesn&#8217;t know if it&#8217;s good or bad) passes this message to the Super-conscious mind, which processes it and gives it to the Divine. Next, fourthly, the Divine sends an answer via the super-conscious mind direct to the conscious mind &#8211; inspiration. At the same time the sub-conscious mind is attracting like vibrations. So &#8220;chance&#8221; meetings and unexpected circumstances, combined with the Divine Inspiration, all work together to produce the desired result.</p>
<p>But like I said, there is a problem. The busy thinking mind can&#8217;t communicate its desire clearly enough to the sub-conscious mind, nor can it hear the inspiration from the super-conscious mind.</p>
<p>Mind blowing? Tell me what you think below.</p>
<p>So what to do to get that answers, that important inspiration? Simply &#8211; shut up! Shut up your mind. Stop thinking, literally. Only by stilling the mind can you possibly hear what God has to say to you. And how do you quieten your mind? Focus! Focus on something still, like a nail head, a candle flame, a spot of the wall. Just focus and allow your mind to settle down. Accept but ignore any thoughts coming into your mind. Just let the waters settle. Stay focused and calm will return. Then and only then will your hear it &#8211;  the still small voice &#8211; speaking to you.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Have you ever felt like you don’t belong, you don’t fit in? Does your life constantly bang against the wall of conformity and crash against the common perception of life? This is what the authors of Wings of Change, Jim and Katharina Murdoch, were facing when their lives were turned upside down by unexpected events. How could life be any worse? Religion wasn’t meeting their needs, jobs weren’t meeting their needs, and to top it all along came a force which threatened to tear their family apart.</p>
<p>But they survived, not what could be said about their belief systems. “Our beliefs took a knock, a big knock,” says Jim. “One day we thought all our beliefs about God, life and the world were in order, then they were all turned on their head. Nothing has been the same since.” This was the turning point in their lives as they began to pursue the answers which had been avoiding them until now. And thus began a journey of discovery.</p>
<p>Their discoveries, uncovered independently as they each walked distinct paths, were complimentary and served to bind them together against all odds in spite of the forces threatening to pull them apart. Amazingly, their separate paths were uncovering the same truths and they found themselves agreeing more and more as they learned about God, the universe and consciousness.</p>
<p>The lessons they learned on their journey serve as an inspiration to the reader. You will read how they grew in awareness of who and what they are, how they learned to let go of old ways and paradigms and how to listen to their inner voice for guidance. The reader will benefit from their lessons of overcoming obstacles, daring to experiment with new ideas, realizing their purpose and acting on their new found truth to live the life they desire.</p>
<p>To help tell their story, Jim &amp; Katharina have been inspired to adapt a parable to highlight each chapter. Using a family of geese they intriguingly blend in their life’s experiences into the geese’s life and their pursuit of happiness in learning the V formation and daring to fly south.</p>
<p>Katharina sums it up, “The readers will have fun. It’s inspiring and they will learn something for life. There is hope for anyone. No matter how bad a situation may be there is wonderful hope.”</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In the movie The Matrix, Neo is faced with the truth that the world as he knew it did not exist, but was a virtual reality created by machines to fool the human populace that their world is real and physical. Once Neo had grasped this truth he was able to eventually master the virtual environment just by &#8220;thinking &#8221; about it. If he needed anything he would give his order and the Operator would find the code and program it into Neo&#8217;s mind. This could be anything from abilities to objects.</p>
<p>As a master Neo could see The Matrix for what it truly is, a matrix of digital information. This gave him the ability to change that digital information and override certain &#8220;fixed&#8221; programming.</p>
<p>Did you know that your world, this physical reality we call &#8220;real&#8221; is in fact nothing other than a Matrix like reality? It&#8217;s true! Scientists have discovered what Lynn McTaggart calls <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/006143518X?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=jissebl-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=006143518X">The Field</a><img style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=jissebl-20&amp;l=as2&amp;o=1&amp;a=006143518X" border="0" alt="" width="1" height="1" /> and what Gregg Braden calls <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1401905730?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=jissebl-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=1401905730">The Divine Matrix</a><img style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=jissebl-20&amp;l=as2&amp;o=1&amp;a=1401905730" border="0" alt="" width="1" height="1" />, a field of energy connecting everything in space and time. Physicists tell us that everything we know is made up with atoms and electron. Everything we can see and touch are only variations of thee vibrating elements. Even the stuff we smell, hear and feel are again vibrational energies interacting with our intimate field of awareness.</p>
<p>And here is where it gets really interesting: Thoughts are also energy! The whole scary conclusions which quantum physicists are talking about is that human intention can change matter. It has been seen in experimentation how deliberate intention of thought can effect how particles react. On a larger scale it is well know how thoughts can be &#8220;read&#8221; and transmitted instantly to other locations. Thoughts can brings about healing, or illness, can cause events to happen to being about a desire or a fear. Thoughts are energy and as such if directed and focused with intent can bring about change in the &#8220;physical&#8221; realm as in the movie.</p>
<p>When you break this understanding down to its simplest form, everything in our physical world is only energy. There is nothing really solid. Everything is made up with atoms and electrons, which are themselves not solids, but concentrations of energy. So your body is nothing more than a bunch of energy bundles all working together to produce your physical &#8220;solid&#8221; experience. And all that is held together through intent. If this is so, then all of life is only a series of bits of information, DNA, various programs of information all working together to create the living, physical reality we know.</p>
<p>If this is so, then you are Neo, and if you can grasp this understanding you too can manipulate your environment through deliberate intent of thought and sub-conscious feeling. It is at the sub-conscious level where the programming happens and it is these sub-conscious programs which control what we do, have and are. So if we want a different reality, different results, then we must change the programming. We do this through auto-suggestion, which is only a tool to get the sub-conscious mind to accept a new idea. Once that happens your actions will change, your words will change, your feelings will change and your results, your life will change.</p>
<p>This whole Divine Matrix idea that everything is energy can be a scary thought. But if you can grasp it, the world is yours.</p>
<p>Have fun with this. Tell me what you think.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What do you really want? Why are you reading this? What are you looking for? What is missing in your life that causes you to Google and search for stuff pertaining to the thing occupying your mind right now? What brought you here?</p>
<p>Do you <strong>know </strong>what you want? Or are you blindly searching for something without knowing exactly what? Perhaps you are more clear about what you <strong>don&#8217;t want</strong>. You don&#8217;t want this situation any longer. You don&#8217;t want to live this way any more. You don&#8217;t to struggle with money any more. You don&#8217;t want to feel helpless and useless. You are fed up with being fed up.</p>
<p>I would like to <strong>challenge </strong>you tell me what you really want. Consider the things you don&#8217;t want and now think of what you want in their place. What is it? Is it possessions, a relationship, a job, a situation? Or maybe something deeper, like an understanding of the world and why things happen the way they do. What makes you tick? What excites you? Where is your <strong>button</strong>? Tell me, I want to <strong>press </strong>it!</p>
<p>I am serious. Tell me what makes you live and move. <em>If all restrictions and limitations were removed what would you be doing right now?</em></p>
<p>Why do I want to know? Because I <strong>believe </strong>that what I have learned and what has brought me to the point of writing a book with my wife (soon to be published) and to consider building such a business which scares us skinny even now, can help you be where you want to be, do what you want to do and be the person you want to be. Be bold! I dare you!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After the holiday break we are ready to get back to our study of Napoleon Hill&#8217;s book &#8220;Think and Grow Rich&#8221;. Tonight the study group will be looking at chapter 7 on &#8220;Decision&#8221;. What it tells us is successful people have always made a decision quickly and changed it slowly if it was changed at all. Indecision does not create wealth or any success. We need to make decision making a habit, and make the right decisions to do or have what we want, not what other&#8217;s want us to be or have. The author urges us to keep our plans to ourselves, sharing them only with like minded people who will encourage us, people like those we gather around us with like minds and desires, called a Mastermind. And get this:</p>
<blockquote><p>The majority of people who fail to accumulate money sufficient for their needs are, in general, easily influenced by the opinions of others. They permit the newspapers and the &#8220;gossiping&#8221; neighbours to do their thinking for them&#8230;<br />
If you are too easily influenced by the opinions of others, you will have no DESIRE of your own.</p>
<h6>p.150</h6>
</blockquote>
<p>It is so important to be a decision maker. And so important to listen to the right people. Generally those who try to discourage you from achieving your goals, no matter how nice are their intentions, are not those you should be listening to. Find those who think success and are not afraid to make decisions and listen to them. The more we listen the more knowledge we will accumulate.</p>
