How do some people achieve what they want quickly and continue to set and achieve goals while other people struggle to achieve their dreams and desires even after they learn about the Law of Attraction, even after creating a Treasure map/Vision board?
Are some people luckier than others? No! In fact “according to Richard Wiseman, a psychologist at the University of Hertfordshire in England who conducted a 10 year study of luck, people’s thoughts and behavior are often responsible for their good luck and good fortune. ..... lucky people are “skilled at creating and noticing chance opportunities, make lucky decisions by listening to their intuition, create self fulfilling prophecies via positive expectations and adopt a resilient attitude that transforms bad luck into good.”
Excerpt from “All the Money in the World” by Peter W. Bernstein & Annalyn Swan
It sounds to me like the difference between lucky people and unlucky people is that the lucky ones understand and live the basic principles of The Law of Attraction. They have supportive belief systems, which include the pictures in their minds, about their own success.
But you say I think positive, I have a written and clearly defined goal. You may also have your Treasure Map..... and like many people, maybe some areas in your life ARE fantastic...yet, other areas may still be challenging.
As you know the real manifesting power of your mind is the SUBconscious, which has been pre programmed, by all your past experiences and how you feel about them. So, although two people might have very similar pictures in their conscious minds, one person believes they deserve to be successful while the other is full of self doubts and subconsciously doesn’t really believe they deserve to live the life they envision.
Therefore it is vitally important that you keep working on your subconscious mind through the Treasure Maps/Vision Boards, Visualizations and Affirmations, until you absolutely believe at the subconscious level that you deserve everything on your Treasure Map.
Your subconscious mind works in pictures not words, it changes each word to a picture. And each word can conjure up different images to different people.
Have you ever been on a picnic? What memories do you have about picnics? Are they wonderful, romantic, fun and laughter filled events or are your memories of the bugs and soggy sandwiches and hard rocky grounds? One of my students said “I always think of the fun we had at the beach and not the sand in my potato salad... “
If your conscious mind THINKS, its thinking positive and focusing on a goal, the sub conscious mind may have a very different picture in its memory banks, and guess which mind has the greater power.? Yes, the Subconscious !
This is why it is so beneficial to learn how to create a clearly defined Treasure Map / Vision Board of your goals, dreams and desires, as it gives your subconscious mind the CORRECT pictures and you will discover how powerfully you can achieve your goals when your subconscious mind is aligned with your conscious mind.
Dr. Wayne Dyer said many, many years ago “You’ll see it when you believe it”
And that is the power of a Treasure Map over a written list of goals. The subconscious mind is influenced and re- programmed by the pictures it sees repetitively and daily. This process can be accelerated by learning the Mind skills that I teach in The Art of Manifesting and even more so by using my 30 Day Accelerator Mind Training program.
Regularly practicing these mind skills like visualization, affirmations and listening to and refining your own self talk will fast track you to your goals, dreams and desires. ( More about the power of the spoken word next newsletter)

“CAN I DO ANYTHING AND HAVE ANYTHING NOW?”
Recently, whilst I was in Australia my friend Liliane Grace, (author of the mastery Club) and I were discussing how to support students who don’t get everything they want in the time frames they may expect. This is a question I have pondered and contemplated for a while as I observe so many of my students manifesting quickly and easily many (if not all) of the dreams they have on their Maps, while others seem to struggle and get disappointed that the Treasures just seem to be elusive.
During my workshops I mention Malcolm Gladwell's book, "The Tipping Point", for the purpose of explaining that manifesting takes time and energy and once there is enough energy applied results will show. Some students have already put time and energy into their goals and dreams and all it takes for them to manifest miraculously is, to get a clear picture and commit it to paper, by making the Treasure map and "voila" almost instantly, the goals manifest. While others are just beginning the journey towards their goals and have some growing and in some cases some healing and maybe some reprogramming to experience before the universe brings them their goals.
When people start to experience the zig zagging (which is normal, it’s part of the journey of personal development and growth that needs to occur for you to BE the person who naturally has the goal you are seeking), or get disappointed that their dreams didn't manifest when they expected them to, there is always some Mind work that can be done to help them continue on the journey and get results. I can support you with the 30 day accelerator workbook and I offer personal one to one coaching, plus free email advice to students.
The basic answer is KEEP GOING, do the inner mind work, be diligent with your affirmations and self talk and do whatever it takes.
Is the prize worth the PRICE? If it is keep going, the law of attraction will work once you resonate, vibrate at the required frequency. You will know whether the goal is worth the effort required to attain it.
This article comes from my friend Liliane Grace, Author of "The Mastery Club" an amazing book about a group of young teenagers who have some fun and interesting adventures while they learn and practise the principles of the law of attraction. Liliane is an insightful and extremely eloquent writer, so it is my pleasure to share this article with you. To learn more about "The Mastery Club" please visit http://www.themasteryclub.com.au/ you can download the 1st four chapters. I have books here in Hawaii, if you'd like to own your own copy or give to some special kids, just let me know.
“CAN I DO ANYTHING AND HAVE ANYTHING NOW?” by Liliane Grace http://www.themasteryclub.com.au/
To put it simply, sometimes we don’t get what we want because the timing isn’t right, sometimes because the goal isn’t right, sometimes because our reason isn’t right...
The purpose of this dream-seeking work is not that we can wave a magic wand and instantly get whatever we want, but that we grow. It’s not about what we GET but who we BECOME in the process of achieving our dreams that is most important. It’s pretty easy to come to the conclusion that, once we understand the principles of creative thought, we can have anything we desire or do anything we want to do, but these laws are not some sort of push- button technology; they’re about personal development, spiritual growth and the fact that everything comes ‘by right of consciousness’, which means you can only manifest what you have earned by doing your ‘inner work’.
So if we make a treasure map or say affirmations and our dream doesn’t manifest quickly, then that time delay is a reflection of our process of growing into the person who truly identifies with the desired outcome. This is a funny paradox about manifestation: when you feel that you have it (whatever is is), that’s your clue that it’s on its way. If you know it’s yours, it’s yours; if you doubt it or you’re trying to ‘bring it’ or make it happen, it’s not.
So... if it’s not coming to me, I’m not ready for it or it’s not right for me. This brings up the question: how do we make ourselves ready faster?! How do we grow into that person? How do we ‘earn the right’? How do we develop that consciousness? How do we accept that it may not be right for us?
This is my answer to those questions: * Do what you love. Your inner work includes honoring yourself by doing what makes you feel vital and alive. (By the way, that’s what you’re here to do...)* Study and understand the principles of creative thought. When we understand them, we’re much more patient because we know we’re dealing with LAWS, and laws work reliably. * Practice the disciplines of affirmations and visualization rather than just reading about them. *
Hold your vision. Be patient and kind to yourself while your dream is still in the invisible. * Be humble as each next challenge (opportunity to grow) turns up. * Learn from feedback.
Ultimately all change comes from the inside: how you see things, how you talk to yourself about them. Remember that while you are practising the principles,you are growing into the person who can have that dream... Just remember that this journey is about getting what we need (for our growth) rather than what we want (for our ego). Trust that the Great Power that created you and everything you experience, truly does know what is best for you. The Grand Organizing Design (G.O.D.) is perfect – there are no mistakes. All is in perfect divine order.

Creating a Success Vibration by John Kehoe
I am so excited and grateful to share with you the wisdom of John Kehoe! John has kindly written the article "CREATING A SUCCESS VIBRATION" at my request so I can share it with YOU!
So many of my students are getting such amazing results with their Treasure Maps and some are still in the process of achieving their goals and dreams. I asked John to write an article on Acknowledging, for my students, as I know and believe this is a special and very powerful tool to really attract success and great results!
Please enjoy the article below, Creating a Success Vibration by John Kehoe and feel free to visit John's website, for more information about his wonderful work. His Mind power course is where I began my journey into understanding the law of attraction and it is what led me to discover Treasure Mapping /Vision Boards.

Creating a Success Vibration by John Kehoe -
There is an old adage that says ‘nothing succeeds like success,’ and this is an accurate saying, based upon fact. A success vibration acts like a magnet that attracts success and opportunities to you. When you ‘think’ successful and feel successful you will act accordingly, and therefore find it easy to achieve whatever goals you set for yourself.
So for those of you who are already successful, you have momentum on your side and the law of attraction already working for you. You are forever attracting to you conditions and circumstances according to your predominant thoughts, which in this case are success-oriented. Your success vibration is a great asset to you.
Those of you who are struggling and not yet successful, don’t despair; you too can create the same success vibration using the mind power technique of “acknowledging”.
The acknowledging technique begins with simply finding areas of your life where you are already successful, and then using these aspects to build a success vibration for yourself. Unfortunately most of us are quicker to see our own failures and shortcomings than we are to acknowledge our achievements and successes. To create a success vibration you must change this habit and become success-focused. Examine your personal qualities and present situation and find things to feel successful about. Can’t find anything? Look again. Are you a loving parent? Are you a good friend to someone? Do you have skills? Are you positive? Do people enjoy your company? Are you generous? Do you dress well? Are you a safe driver? You are not limited to the narrow definition of success as someone who is rich, famous and good-looking. These other aspects I mention are equally important in life. The key is to think and feel successful now in your life. This is what creates a success vibration.
You can also look to your past and acknowledge yourself for past achievements. “But that’s the past,” you might argue. It doesn’t matter; you can use anything past or present to make yourself feel successful. Make yourself an acknowledging list—ten or fifteen things that cause you to feel successful. Spend five minutes every day reading it over and acknowledging yourself, feeling successful. What you focus on you attract, so start focusing on success.
An acknowledging list can be either general or specific. For example, let’s say you’re going to a job interview for a sales position. You might make a specific acknowledging list that highlights the positive qualities you have which will help you succeed in such a position, such as: I’m a good communicator, I have great people skills, I’m organized, and so on. By focusing on this list you are building a success vibration. The same principle works whether you’re closing a million dollar deal or getting an entry-level job or finding that perfect partner. Create a success vibration and you will attract success. What are you waiting for? Get started today.
