“This is the time of year people make resolutions they don’t plan to keep!”
Did you know 95% of all New Year’s resolutions are either forgotten or broken by “Blue Monday”, the third Monday in January?
If you want to achieve the New Years resolutions that you are setting please consider the law of attraction and do the following:
1. Choose which goals you will fully commit to.
2. Decide which goals you will de-commit from or let go of.
3 Complete, celebrate and acknowledge all last years and prior success to add momentum and activate the Law of Attraction for 2008.
4. Create your new Treasure Map/Vision Board and use the accelerator techniques for a minimum of 30 days, to give your subconscious mind a full sensory experience of what it is you want.
Do you set the same goals year after year with out really ever attaining them? If you do then you are giving your subconscious mind a very powerful message that you are not really wanting the goal you are setting. I am not talking about a long term goal that may take a few years to achieve, I am referring to the “frivolous” goals that are set with good intentions and then forgotten about or broken, each year.
Do you know which goals they are for you? Is it a weight or fitness goal? A relationship goal? An educational one? A financial one? Which one of these do you just keep meaning to follow through on, but never manage to find the time or have the willpower to “Just Do It”.
Your Subconscious mind knows that you are not serious about having what you say you want and therefore, it will continue to sabotage the result, not because its your worst enemy, but because it’s what it has been programmed for, year after year
Now, it’s time to commit or to de-commit and its OK either way.
If you fully commit, then you can be confident about having the law of attraction working in your favor by using the powerful techniques of Acknowledgment and Treasure Mapping/Vision Boards, briefly explained below.
If you de- commit then you can be confident that you will release old heavy “baggage” and allow the new goals to manifest more easily and effortlessly.
You will be amazed at how much energy is “free-ed” up, once you actually let go of the old goals that you have been “should-ing” on your self about. In fact in some cases the mere fact of letting go and releasing the obligation and worry about the goal, gives it the space to manifest anyway. (If this has happened for you please email me your story as they are always inspirational for others).
Psychologists say that we can only pay attention to 7 plus or minus 2 things at any one time, if there is more “on our plates” our attention units can become overwhelmed.
This is explained in Jack Canfield’s recent work, “Success Principles”, where he mentions this, discovered by a German psychologist, “who noticed that a waitress, who had not yet had the bill paid, could remember everything that was ordered for the meal even if there were eight people at the table, but as soon as the bill was paid,she could not remember half of it, which is good, as her mind was able to become “present” to focus on the next thing.”
To free up your mind’s attention units for 2008;
De- commit from unfinished, forgotten goals now. and
Acknowledge yourself for anything you have achieved, celebrate it and declare it complete!
As you have heard now, so many times “Like attracts like”, “Success breeds success”.
More success will come your way, when you “feel” successful, but you cannot feel successful if you do not look for and acknowledge your successes. The success can be major or minor. it doesn't matter. What matters is that you acknowledge yourself for whatever you did do. Write down now, your success’s from 2007.
And now, create a new Treasure Map/ Vision board for 2008 or update your current one to acknowledge your success's and completions, and to fine tune your current goals.
Wishing you an awesome, prosperous, wonderful, happy, healthy and fulfilling 2008 and congratulations for your great success’s and accomplishments.

Teenagers, Treasure Maps/Visionboards & the 4 Step Success Formula
“ Dear Barbara, Mahalo Nui Loa for all your inspiration. The students were truly inspired and asked if they could continue working on their maps in class later that day! They loved your accent and your enthusiasm. They said you were really "fun"!” - Elaina, Dip. Ed. Health, Honolulu, Hawaii.
When I was invited to speak to 120 high school teenagers and share with them the basic principles of Treasure mapping, Vision boards, effective goal setting and understanding the law of attraction, I must admit I was a little anxious.
How would I get the message across succinctly, clearly and powerfully? What was the best way to to inspire, motivate and activate these young adults, to set goals, understand and believe they can achieve their dreams ?
After careful consideration, I decided, I could teach them through a powerful and simple 4 step formula:
1. Goal: Know what you want.
The clearest way to get this point across, was to ask the kids if they ever went into a restaurant and ask for food because they were hungry. They laughed. They knew that when you order food, you order specifically what you want! Right? Who goes into a restaurant and says “I’m really hungry, just give me anything..” But how many of us ask that of the Universe! I am lonely I want someone to love, I need a job, any job... but when we aren’t specific in requesting what we want, we are actually leaving it to other people to decide what we receive. and then we blame them for not fulfilling our needs, wants and desires. Its not their fault, if you don’t ask specifically for what you want!
Did you know, most people don’t have what they want because:
1) They don’t know what they want.
2) They no longer believe its possible or
3) They don’t believe they deserve to have it.
2. Clear Picture: Your powerful creative mind works in pictures.
Creating a Treasure Map/Vision board is an incredibly powerful tool for getting what you want. Your powerful subconscious mind only works in pictures and will do whatever it can to bring YOU, your most predominant thoughts and feeling and belief systems, but it only relates to pictures. So if you have a goal make sure you have a clear PICTURE , not just written goals. If you write “picnic” and list all the details of a great picnic and your subconscious mind remembers the picnics at the beach with sand in the potato salad, soggy sandwiches, bugs, flies and no bathrooms? What sort of results do you think you will get?
And then we wonder why we don’t get our goals, or the law of attraction isn’t working. It is working, but its attracting the pictures that are already in your “old filing system” instead of what your think you currently want.
With a Treasure map/ Vision board your subconscious mind will change its course and bring you what is on your map, not what is stored in its memory banks. You will overwrite the old non supportive programs. Your past will no longer automatically create your future.
3. Beliefs: “You’ll see it when you believe it” - Wayne Dyer
Your belief systems give you exactly what you believe you deserve. If you want to know what you really believe, look at your life! Your subconscious mind always gives you exactly what you believe.
If you want something other than what you currently have, you will need to reprogram your subconscious mind. The most efficient way to to this is to:
1) Create a Treasure Map/vision board with the goals, dreams and desires you want.
2) Look at it and celebrate it for 30 days. Like attracts like. What you see in your mind and feel in your body you will soon see and experience in your life. Always visualize your desired result as if it has already been accomplished.
3) Now, you have programed your subconscious mind and it will bring you your new beliefs.
4. Action to Success: “NEVER, NEVER, Never Give up!” - Winston Churchill!
This very famous phrase needs to be updated. Nowadays, we understand how the mind and brain work and we know that we must give our subconscious mind, the command stated in the positive. We have to state what we want, not what we don’t want.
Your subconscious mind doesn’t hear /see the qualifying word, (never, cant, don't) and only moves in a forward direction. Can you see a picture of “never give up?” No, in order to do so, your mind will see the picture of giving up before you can imagine NOT giving up. The better more effective and powerful way to say “never give up”, is to say:
ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS KEEP GOING UNTIL YOU SUCCEED.

The better more effective and powerful way to say “never give up”, is to say:
ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS KEEP GOING UNTIL YOU SUCCEED.
So many people start out enthusiastically towards their goals, but soon give up, when the going gets a little tough and again, they blame the situations, circumstances and anything, except the fact that they just Gave Up! If you take action and persist and continue till you succeed, you will find the journey to your goals, dreams and desires will be shorter and easier. The difference between a winner and a lose is, as loser falls down once and stays down. The winner falls 7 times and gets up 8.
You know what you want, you have a Treasure map, a clear picture of your goal, you believe its IT IS possible and all you have to do is keep going and persist untill you succeed.

Are you attracting exactly what you want in life?
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.
-Barbara
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.

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.

"The Art Of Manifesting with a Treasure Map"
“ Either you create your life and live your own dreams or you'll become a pawn in someone else's.”
Barbara Pellegrino
Since 1994 I have been living a life way beyond my wildest dreams! Traveling the world with my Husband, the man of my dreams, living in “sun kissed” Hawaii, enjoying life’s limitless beauty and teaching my own workshops called, "Treasure Mapping Your Way to Success."
No one believed it was possible except my mother and I. We were the only ones who actually believed in my dream. And nowadays, the rest still shake their heads in amazement and wonder, how it all happened? Many still pass it off as.... “she got lucky!”
Let me tell you a little secret, IT IS NOT LUCK! Ask others who are living their wildest dreams. They will tell you it has nothing to do with luck.
Its a formula and the basic ingredients are desire, belief and having a clear picture in your mind.
We all create our own lives, including our good fortune and abundance. And Yes, it can happen for you and you can share it with the people you know and love, so it can happen for them also.
The three secrets to creating your goals, dreams, and desires; abundantly, delightfully and easily are, TLC:
1) T - Treasure Map.(Vision Board) A visual representation of your goals, dreams and desires.
2) L - Laws. Understanding the Universal Laws, especially Attraction.
3) C - Creation/Manifestation. Learning the Art of Manifesting.
Sometimes your goals and dreams will come to fruition quickly. Sometimes they may take a little longer and they always come at the perfect time. Having a completed treasure map activates the Law of Attraction and brings to fulfillment the Art of Manifestation.
Creating your Treasure Map will help you manifest whatever you want in life, because your extremely powerful, “creative mind” understands and works in pictures. Looking at your map will trigger your passions give your mind focus and laser beam clarity. Therefore your subconscious mind becomes programmed like a guided missile towards your goals and dreams, instead of just dwelling on and recreating your past!
Your Treasure Map is a visual representation of how you want your future to BECOME. Just like you have success pictures and photos on your walls at home. You will now have a map with clear and definite pictures that will direct your creative mind in manifesting your future.
Your history does not have to repeat ITSELF! Your past is not your future! Turn around, look at your dreams and move forward now.
You might say, I already have written goals. That’s great for the left side of your brain, but what about including the right side, the creative side? ADDING THE VISUALS, is the more powerful way to set your goals and achieve the dreams and abundance you want. The only limit is your level of desire, and your willingness to act.
I do not know of any other process that offers greater rewards relative to the actual effort exerted.
The map I made in 1994 is still bringing me great joys and wonderful adventures and I create new maps regularly to add to my fabulous and abundantly happy life.

Jumping for Joy
Are you still jumping for joy?
Would you like a really practical and fun way to harness the Law of Attraction and magnetize your goals, dreams and desires easily? You have probably seen and heard recent DVD’s like “The Secret” or “What the bleep?” state that everything in the Universe is energy and like attracts like.
What exactly does that mean? Like attracts like? When they say opposites attract? Well, if you really examine, the “opposites” attract theory you will find at their core, these things that are meant to be opposite are really the same! Magnets are still metal, just one end has a positive charge, the other end has a negative charge, but it’s still a metal magnet attracting metals.
You may be attracted to your opposite, but you will find you have more similarities than opposites. In this Universe you cannot attract the opposite. You will always attract to you, the people, situations and circumstances according to your own personal vibration. The energy you send out comes back to you, the thoughts and feelings you experience many times over and/or more intensely, will in fact come back to you. So how do you attract what you really want?
One fun way is to JUMP FOR JOY!
I observed a small child recently in a store. As his father was about to give him a sweet treat the child jumped for joy, clapped his hands, giggled laughed and was unashamedly eager to receive the treat! When he received it, he gobbled it up joyously, still extremely excited, happy to experience the gift and buoyant in his energy.
His happiness and delight, charmed and amused all of us who stood there and watched this sweet innocent child. Can you remember the last time you were so excited about receiving something that you literally jumped for joy? I can and it wasn’t too long ago! I get that excited every time I run a Treasure Mapping class because I know what treats my students will be attracting to themselves.
Energy is catchy! Your energy sends out a resonance in waves ( imagine a rippling effect) and other people are always affected, just as you are affected by others’ energy or moods. Only those who are well trained and understand the Law of Attraction can avoid being affected by other peoples moods.
The Universe responds to all the energy you put out. Your personal vibration, your resonance (your predominant thoughts and feelings) is what is responsible for what you experience in your reality not your wishes and hopes and longings. Like attracts like!
So why don’t you start now to jump for joy? Look at your Treasure Map and celebrate it, jump for joy, enhance and increase your personal vibration to attract to you more things that you really would “jump for joy” about.
Please send this to your friends now and have more people jumping for joy in anticipation of and celebrating their dreams and goals with you!
