Welcome to my new newsletter.  I hope you like it. I will try to get a couple of newsletters out each month but only if I have something to say. If there is anything you would like me to write about in future issues please let me know. One thing you will find that's different here is the fact that I encourage you to contact me directly any time you have questions, need help or advice, or just need someone to confirm that you're on the right track.

To contact me just reply to this email. I'll be up front and honest. I don’t pretend to have all the answers but if I can help you I will.

Its not a one way street either. Yes you are welcome to ask me for help but you are equally welcome to offer me help too. I am always eager to hear your ideas and to consider offers of joint ventures etc.

Don’t forget to read the F*ree Articles To Help You Succeed on my main website:

To your success,

Self Image and Beliefs

Before you can use The Law of Attraction, and all the other great tools I teach, to create every good thing you want in your life, you must be ready to accept all those good things.

For many of us this is the hardest part.  How many times has somebody offered to help you, maybe offered to pay for a shared taxi or something, and you have said "Oh no, that's alright, I'll pay".  Well if you can't accept a taxi fair from a friend, how are you ever going to accept the new life you want from the Universe?

This may be due to a deep seated belief you are probably not even conscious of.  It probably goes something like this: "I am really not a very good person so I don't deserve to have the things that I want.  Remember that awful thing I did twenty years ago, I deserve to be punished not rewarded".

Come on!  That was a long time ago.  You have grown and evolved since then.  You would not do the same thing today.  Make amends if you can, and if you can't just forgive yourself anyway and move on.  And remember, you would not be the kind, loving, wise being you are today had you not gone through that and learnt its lessons. 

You may not be able to make amends with the people you hurt but what goes around comes around so you can make up for it by helping other people, the people who are in your life now,  instead.  And if ever you run into those earlier people again just say, "I am sorry, I know I hurt you but I was being the best person I knew how to be at the time.  I know how to be a very much better person now and I am using that knowledge to help others".

As I said, you may not be aware of any of this on the surface.  Consciously you may think you are a pretty ok kind of person.  However if you find your self talk saying things like "I could never have that" or "I could never stay in that hotel" or "I could never fly first class", stop and ponder.  Do you have an unworthy undercurrent running through your subconscious? 

Self image is the way we see ourselves and how we feel about ourselves.  It can be complex and multi-faceted.  Its important to try and connect with our self image, to bring it into the open where we can work on it.  At various times each day ask yourself "How do I feel about myself right now?"  Really listen to the answer.  For this exercise its important to really listen to the answer.  Don't instantly replace anything negative with a positive affirmation as any self respecting Law of Attraction practitioner normally would.  Later but not yet.  First listen to the message and it will reveal an undercurrent of false beliefs you never even knew exited. 

You can also look in the mirror and ask yourself "How do I look to myself right now?" Yes its ok for the boys to do this as well as the girls.  If asking this question makes you feel fat and ugly, skinny, hairy, bald, bloated, maybe you need to give yourself more love and affection, more nurturing.  Yes it really is ok to love ourselves, indeed it is essential.  We are not being conceited.  In fact we cannot love anyone else, our family, friends, pet, the planet, until we first develop a healthy love for ourselves. 

Once we have discovered our negative undercurrents we have started to replace them. Affirmations and creative visualisation are great tools to help us develop a healthy self love and a positive self image.  You can also use suggestion audio programmes such as the excellent ones offered by the Think Right Now team. I have used several of these and have derived great benefit from them.  There was one which didn't really suit me but everything else I have purchased from them has been spot on the mark.

The reason our self image may not be accurate is that we have been brainwashed since birth to believe we are inadequate.  Affirmations, creative visualisation and suggestion audio programmes are brainwashing too but now we are doing the brainwashing to ourselves, now we are fighting back.

Always try to think of your own better qualities and remind yourself of them often.

Help Yourself - Help the World

We really do live in an abundant universe and it is important for our success that we develop a strong sense off abundance, whatever that word means to each one of us individually.  The universe really is trying to bring us every good and wholesome thing we desire.  And it is succeeding in bringing us all the things we habitually focus upon because it assumes that that is what we want.  Everything we truly desire, spiritually, mentally, emotionally and physically, is waiting for us.  We just need to believe it is waiting for us and accept it into our lives.

I say truly desire because often we think we want things but its just a whim or an ego trip.  We need to be absolutely clear in our own minds about what it is we really do want.  There are also times when we want something, on one level, but we don't really want to want it.  Think about that for a moment.  How many times have you had a really strong yearning for something, a piece of cake say, and another part of your mind is saying "you don't really want that, it will make you fat".  Maybe you meet a beautiful woman or a handsome man and feel a strong urge to introduce yourself but you know that that would not be fair on your spouse and would probably lead to the end of your marriage.  As long as these inner conflicts exist the universe cannot bring the object of your desire to you.  You have to get clear in your own mind about exactly what you really do want.

Next we must believe that we can have it.  Your own subconscious mind is hard wired to prove to you that your beliefs are true.  It makes no difference whether your beliefs really are true.  Your subconscious mind will see to it that they become true for you.  If you believe that all relationships end in disaster, all yours will.  If you believe that you keep getting fired from jobs you will go on getting sacked time and time again.  If you believe that you are worthy of promotion you will be promoted.  If you believe that you deserve to earn 100,000 pounds a year then your subconscious and the universe will find a way to make your beliefs come true.  If we believe we live in an abundant universe we will see evidence of abundance everywhere we look.

You can use suggestion audio programmes such as the excellent ones offered by the Think Right Now team to change your beliefs. You can also use affirmations and visualisation. 

And finally you must be ready to accept the things and conditions you desire into your life. You are unlikely to accept a thing which takes you out of your comfort zone.  This is why change is often slow.  This links in with beliefs.  If you really believe you deserve a thing then you will probably be willing to accept it. If you really believe that we can all live in a better world then that is the would you will accept and create, for the benefit of all.

One challenge we face is scarcity programming.  The newspapers and the television love stories about how tough life is, starving millions in Africa, floods and earthquakes wiping away peoples' homes and life savings, people dying of incurable diseases. Those things sell newspapers.  Of course those things exist and they are terrible but the more we focus upon them, the more energy we feed them, and the worse those situations will become.  Your subconscious mind will see to it that what you believe becomes true, remember?

Yes we can change these things but we must change them from the inside out because that's the way the universe works.  Mother Teresa always refused invitations to attend anti-war demonstrations.  "Put on a pro-peace rally and I will come" she would say.  She knew how this stuff works.

The truth is that we live in an abundant universe, there is plenty to go around. If you feel that the wealth which exists needs to be distributed more evenly then by all means campaign for that but please don't focus on the inequality or you will make it worse. By all means educate the poor, teach them how to grow crops and irrigate their land and even more importantly, teach them how to think, teach them about the Law of Attraction!

The modern world seems to have lost touch with prosperity. It is us, you and me and everyone, who is responsible for perpetuating all the evils in the would by focusing our minds upon them. (Now please don't go off on some guilt trip believing that Jack said you were to blame.  Responsibility it the ability to respond, it has nothing to do with blame.  I will be saying more about this in a later newsletter). 

By all means use the Law of Attraction to give yourself every material comfort you desire but whatever you want for yourself you must be perfectly willing for everyone else in the world to have as well. The richest people in the world give to charity.  Why, tax advantages?  There has to be more to it than that.  These people know that what goes around comes around. Enlightened millionaires speak of investing in the universal bank. Call it the Law of Karma if you prefer. They know that the more they have the more good they can do in the world and the more good they do, the more they will have.  If you want to boost your wealth, give some of it away.  Wealth is energy and energy is like water, it needs to flow or it will become stagnant.

We live on a most beautiful planet.  It gives us everything we need, as long as we understand how it works. All apparent evils, disease, poverty, starvation, hatred, crime, war (war is just crime writ big), are the result of not understanding how the universe works and how our minds work. There is a dark shadow of ignorance which has plunged humankind into the darkness.  And how do we end the darkness?  Not by struggling and fighting against it but by shining a light into it!

Some thirty years ago John Lennon asked us to imagine a better world.  Lets try and imagine a better world now, a world where everyone is successful (in their own terms), happy and fulfilled.  Can you image this world transformed into a prosperous and supportive environment for everyone?  Go on, imagine it now. 

John Lennon used the word 'imagine' for a good reason. 'Imagine' means to form a mental image.  Go on, form that image in your mind right now. Believe it and be willing to accept it.  Don't resist, don't say it can't be done. Imagine it, visualise it, believe it, feel it, and out of no way a way will be made.

That's why I got into Law of Attraction coaching and why I put out my Success Tips Newsletter.  I want to shine that torch into the shadows. I want to build a better world for myself, for you, for the starving masses, for the whole world.  Such change can occur but it must happen from the inside out.  We must change the world within and then the world without will follow suite and mirror our inner reality. Lets do it!
