From Peanut Butter to Private Jet 

       New November Training Dates 

 

After winning his 7th Gold Medal at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, Michael Phelps was asked to "sum it all up" by sports commentator Bob Costas. Surely while swimming his tens of thousands of laps over the past four years, Phelps had given his next words much consideration. He began, "The biggest thing I've been thankful for is ..."  

 

"But isn't dreaming running from reality?" I've been asked. What is reality but the result of thoughts you dreamt yesterday and the day before? We are constantly creating our  realities by what we focus upon. A gangster in a cartoon once said to his buddy, "Be careful where you point that thing!" It's just as important for us to choose where we point or focus our thoughts. What we think about, we bring about.   

 

If you are up for an adventure of dreaming new dreams, tomorrow you could awaken grateful for your comfortable bed and then imagine having a guest house to lodge your many friends and relatives that love to come and visit you.

 

Later if you get slowed down in a bit of traffic, you could say thanks for your car that works so well and then imagine your "other" vehicle (which you save for special occasions) that is not only tons of fun to drive, but gets 50 miles ot the gallon!  

 

Do you see how freeing imagineering your life can be? (Don't give me credit for that fun word."Imagineering" is a Walt Disney original.)

 

Imagination is more important than knowledge.

- Albert Einstein 

 

I'm not asking you to go to great lengths here. You'll use your imagination for better or worse hundreds of times today anyway. When traffic slows down instead of being grateful for your car, you might spend that five minutes imagining that it will make you half an hour late and that the folks at work will be perturbed with your delay. And - you'll be right.

 

You Can Stop Being Surprised!

Each weekend I host a Sunday Night Dreamers group. This month we are listening to the #1 best selling book on CD: Money and the Law of Attraction. Last week one member got a surprise $742 check, one received a surprise $9900 check and one started dating a gent just like the one she had described in her visualization! 

 

And the little things are just as fun! Last Friday we got a parking space in Omaha's  popular Old Market right in front of the restaurant where we had reservations. I love the fact that it doesn't surprise me anymore. (My new best seller won't surprise me either.)

   

    Whenever imagining the life of your dreams, be there in the picture.

     Hear the sounds, see the sights, feel the joy, and taste the

       double-chocolate-ice-cream-latte-mocha breakfast meal.

Peanut Butter to Personal Jet
 

She hosts a radio and a television show in Miami and has toured the world for the past two years with the great Les Brown. So, how did I connect with her? My cousin wrote us both emails with each other's phone numbers. We were chatting within minutes.
