I would like to say to you: Yes! It does. I realize this is a bold statement. And you may even object by saying, but I have been as positive as I can possibly be, yet, I still have problems in my life. I am still struggling to get my business of the ground. I still struggle with my marketing and I have not made the major breakthrough that I was waiting and hoping for and positively expecting!
Face reality
Positive thinking does not change the reality you face. If you are struggling to generate leads for your network [...]

Look back at the last 10 years of your life. Are you satisfied? Are you excited when you look back. Unless you design your life plan for the next decade of your life, life will just happen and you will find that the next 10 years will look pretty much the same as the last.
Great lives and incredible success do not simply happen. You design them.
The Sydney opera house did not simply happen. An architect designed it by having a picture of the completed opera house in his mind first. Then only did he build it according to [...]

Pulled out weeds with Alisha yesterday. She was fascinated by the roots of the weeds. Was then when I realised weeds have ROOTS too and they must be PULLED out. They don’t blow away. To have a beautiful life we must pull out the negative thoughts (…weeds) one by one and plant flowers (positive thoughts). Conscious decision and hard work!!

You cannot lie to YOU. You know when you enjoy something. You KNOW when you don’t enjoy something. You know when things excite you. You know when you are doing your best and when you are skimping. We don’t need anyone to tell us we are not giving our best – we know.
Trouble is, we try and convince ourselves why we are not doing our best, or not being true to ourselves. Somehow lying to ourselves like this is not good for us…it ads up..And somehow it affects us in a great way.
When we are true to ourselves and we [...]

14 years ago I had a dream…and then I set it free, but I always held it dear, treasured it, kept it alive. Yesterday that dream became reality!! So how long should you take before you give up on a dream? Never!! No matter how big or small, always keep it alive and then maybe soon or maybe in 10 years you will look back and realise it is no longer a dream it is real!
Why should we not give up on our dreams? Because it is our dreams and our desires around our dreams that keeps us alive and [...]

John Keats wrote the following: ” ‘Beauty is truth, truth is beauty‘, that is all Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know”. It is a well know fact that beautiful thoughts build a beautiful soul.
To create an intention to be successful, you have to do it from the perspective of beauty.

The key to greatness and to be, is through imagination. “Imagine myself to be, and I shall be”.
Your imagination will determine how you feel and that will determine how you think.
As a man thinketh, so is he.
Start with your imagination, and your actions will follow.

Don’t forget that the quality of your life will be determined by the quality of the people in your life.
Your life will reflect the lifes of the closest 5 friends you spend most of your time with.
Are they helping you to get ahead in life, or are they holding you back? Do you critisize, or complimenting you?
Do you really feel better after spending some time with them?
Friends are there to build you up. Encourage you.
80% of what you achieve, you achieve through other people.
Choose your friends wisely.

Each day is a brand new canvas and you have another opportunity to paint the masterpiece of your choice.
Paint happy, fun and enthusiasm. Your thoughts create your reality.
Don’t give that responsibility to others.If you don’t like what has happened in your life,change your thoughts. Abraham Lincoln gave us good advice when he said,” People are about as happy as they make up their minds to be. ”
Some people can sit down at a piano and play beautiful music. Other can only produce discord. The piano is not responsible. It is the same with life.

When all is said and done, mistakes are the process through which we in turn create success.
Mistakes create the foundation of our life. That foundation is experience, which in turn creates the light that leads us into the future.
The light is called wisdom – Wally Amos
