What if You’re Reading That Liberating Book Only Once
“Whatever we plant in our subconscious mind and nourish with repetition and emotion will one day become a reality.”
~~ Earl Nightingale
Remember, it’s highly probable you have entrenched HABITS (programming) to follow orders, put everyone else first and put your dream last !
And therefore, your subconscious programming will be keeping your life PREDICTABLE and safe.
It’s up to you to break out and exercise your free will.
But first, so we’re clear — what’s the definition of a HABIT?
A habit is something you do BEFORE YOU EVEN THINK about it. Scary or superb?
Which means, unless your current habits and beliefs endorse getting what you want … FORGET IT.
WHAT CAN YOU DO?
1. Read personal development books & listen to CDs several times (repetition)
If you’re wanting to STOP messing around with mediocrity and DO what you love — you’ll need to read the information over and over (and over) if you want to start living it.
The idea you’re drawn to is seeking expression — in you.
What you read is not a coincidence, but reading it once is notenough.
“Constant repetition carries conviction.”
~~ Robert Collier (1885-1950)
2. Take notes as you read (more repetition)
When you note new ideas you get more repetition. You’ll embrace the ideas and start living them.
Do this simple technique I’ve done for years:
- Fold a clean sheet of paper in half and place it in the book
- Have a pen or pencil handy
- Write out those tempting ideas and note the page number
- Store it in the book
You’ll form a quick reference to all that inspiration and I often refer to my genius notes. Take more notes when you re-read the book.
3. Create affirmations from these new ideas, and say them slowly every morning and before sleep.
Do this for 30 days straight — at least.
Allow the words of the affirmation to fill you with excitement — if they don’t, create new ones. They must inspire you.
How does repetition work?
Repetition replaces those old limiting habits and beliefs in your subconscious mind e.g. the ones that say, “you can’t.”
Tried “positive thinking” and find it doesn’t work? It’s because the beliefs and habits in your subconscious mind are too strong — they dominate.
Deep down most people have programming that blocks them from breaking free — often because of what others may say or that they may fail.
Do you hold back, conform and stay safe?
The secret is the more often you see a tempting, liberating idea, the more likely you’ll get the courage to apply it.
“Repetition of the same thought or physical action develops into a habit which, repeated frequently enough, becomes an automatic reflex.”
~~ Norman Vincent Peale (1898 – 1993)
Repetition drives you to action.
With repetition you more fully grasp concepts such as the power of YOUR thoughtand you CAN have what you want, which sparks your imagination. You get excited as you start seeing this is possible.
It does work…
When readers write to me overjoyed about living life on their own terms and their out-of-the-blue magic, I always ask how many times they’ve read my book.
Their answer is almost always that they’ve read it twice, three times and are continuing to do so.
No coincidence.
So Remember…
Repetition will reprogram your subconscious mind with glorious possibilities.
