You manufacture your own luck by applying positive thoughts to the way you wnat your life to develop, To get a better life think better things and they will come about.

Do you ever feel as if you have no real life purpose or life plan?

Do you feel as if life is passing you by?

Could it be your life plan is to have money left over at the end of the month instead of month left over at the end of your money?

I do not advocate that people live in the past to discover what sort of life purpose you should have, but just for this exercise I am going to suggest that you are driving your car and I am giving you permission to look in your rear view mirror to see what is behind you, that is not the same as looking back is it?

Go back to your childhood and ask yourself how you were told to behave in your world. Don't do that is frequently said to children without thought of how it will impact on their future lives!;'Chidren should be seen and not heard';'You cannot do that';'Don't try and get above your station'. It is these words that have set up your life today for your life is the sum total of your thoughts up to today.

You have been told that setting goals is the key to a better life full of choices, but perhaps you have not been told how to set them, so many people who try to set goals do so in a language familiar with their lives up until now. That is they say 'I do not want ......'.

Unfortunately the subconcious mind knows no better, when we talk to ourselves or hear someone say something to us or read words, it goes into our memory to find a situation that is either like or closely matched to the words it is receiving. Negative words will quickly find negative situations to relate to and therefore act on, so when you say poor, your subconscious can quickly find a situation to relate to the word poor in your experiece of life.

How can you get around this?

Fortunately it is quite easy to do. Setting goals in the present tense, with purpose, even if you are thinking in the future will create life choices. The only way you can increase say your income is to establish a goal phrased in the present tense, so if you want to earn $8,000 per month you would phrase it, "I am earning $8,000 per month.". It matters not where the money is coming from if you write this down and read it out at every opportunity throughout your day at least four times soon you will earn $8,000 per month. To make it happen you need to act upon it.

You cannot change the past it is gone forever, so is the second it took you to read the past words. The future is just that it can only be effected by what you do today at this moment, this is your moment of power. Your past life need not be your future life, if you take action now to change it.

You can do that by mixing with people who earn $8,000 per month, talk with them, apply their work ethic, you cannot copy them but you can model their life plan matching your current behaviour to theirs. Listen to your peer group, what they say and how they say it, you cannot afford to mix with negative people if you are to grow in your life.

The only thing that you can effect is NOW! The past is gone forever the future is yet to come, now is the present, choose to take action now to change your future!
