Does this sound familiar? I thought I was on the road to success by putting the job first and myself last, compromising my health, myself, AND my wealth. I learned that approach was a recipe for disaster. It has taken many years to finally learn the real secrets to creating spiraling success in all areas of your life. Drum roll please, here they are:

1) Support yourself and your world with a Divine purpose and a mission. Have a mission statement and vision; have an intention and goals. Write this down and review it and visualize it several times a day, particularly when you first wake up in the morning and before your go to bed at night.

2) Your attitude and inner conversation with yourself can make or break your momentum. Wean yourself from negative thoughts and words, people and places, actions and things. The Law of Attraction will bring to you what you focus on and what you feel. Fear-based thinking is only amplified through the television, news, newspapers, the media. Begin to pay attention to what you are feeding your subconscious mind.

3) Your earliest exposure to success principles or their downfall are locked in to your subconscious mind before you could even talk. As an infant and toddler, many habits and traits are picked up through modeled behavior from parents or other influential people in your life in those early formative years. Realize you can and must modify that thermostat setting within yourself in order to reach your dreams and have a better outcome in your life.

4) Dedicate time to being balanced in ALL areas of your life, including what and how you eat; exercise; sleep.

5) Tithe your time and money no matter how little you think you have to give. Start today. Start your day with 15-20 minutes of quiet time to go within yourself to recharge and to listen to the directives your intuition is trying to send you. Spend the last 15-20 minutes before bedtime relaxing your mind by meditating or reading something for self-improvement.

6) Develop an attitude of gratitude about what you have and the things that happen to you in your life for your greater growth and mastery. See obstacles as opportunities to grow rather than road blocks holding you back.

7) Develop a genuine sense of forgiveness for yourself and others for anything that you have done or that they have done to you. Do not hold onto grudges, resentments, anger, or retaliation. True freedom is forgiveness for the past.

8) Commit to random acts of kindness and empowering others with encouragement and loving regard to inspire them to their individual greatness.
