If you see yourself as being a person of only having a certain amount of fitness, a certain amount of income and a certain type of relationship you are coaching yourself based on what is in your self concept. You are limited by your thoughts of you, your self concept.

If you want more than what you are currently experiencing in your life you need to change how you think about yourself. Then by enhancing your self concept you will experience more success and wellness.

Your friend on the journey,

You can make the ‘what if’ a reality because you are capable of making something out of nothing, really!

Just like an architect takes the ideas of the land owner and drafts up an image that becomes a building and then a home, you too can make something out of thoughts which are just like nothing when you begin with them. Indeed, they are ‘nothing’ that when nourished can become something very special.

To make Something out of Nothing you will need four ingredients:

One

Vision

You must first have a vision, an idea of something you want to do to have happen whether it is increased health, friendships, finance… You can only make something out of nothing when you have something to focus on achieving. The powers of possibility cannot connect and power a ship that has no rudder to guide it. You need to know what your vision is.

**

Two

Desire

You must hook this vision to your desire to have it become true. Desire is something that will get you out of bed in the morning to do what you need to do to make what you want happen. Desire will have you run in the rain to stay fit, take the time to make the juice to nourish your body, push you to lift up the phone to call a client to build your business or visit a friend to nourish a relationship when you feel low in energy.

**

Three

Belief

You must believe that what you are visioning and desiring is possible. You may have desire and vision but without belief you will give up.

Belief is that very powerful little extra – the little extra that makes ordinary extraordinary – that makes you act on ideas till they become real.

Your belief can come from many sources. Perhaps, you have done something similar before like starting a business from scratch or moving to a new country to start over and you managed to succeed so your past experiences can help you believe what you want to do is now possible. “If I did it once I can do it again”.

If you don’t have a past experience to draw positive power from then focus on the thought ‘why not?’ if someone else can be happy, healthy and prosperous why not me? We are all meant to enjoy life no one is destined to a life of sadness.

Believe what you want is possible and as you move one step forward use every small achievement to push you more forward into a deeper belief in what is possible. Use tools like I offer freely to nourish your belief. This way you can achieve your dreams.

Four

Action

The essential last ingredient is to blend specific action steps with your vision, desire and belief to help you reach your goals. Your specific action steps you can learn from anyone who has genuinely achieved the goal you wish to achieve. If you want to become a professional speaker learn from a professional speaker, if you want to be a professional singer learn from a professional singer. Without action the first car, the first computer, the first relationship would never have happened.

Now take your vision, desire, belief and take action today! Not tomorrow today!

I am on this road with you.

Questions, comments, tell me what is on your mind.

Your friend on the journey,

Number one

You need to be aware of what is going on in your mind and train your mind effectively by reading books by people like James Allen, Og Mandino, Dale Carnegie more suggestions here.

You also need to avoid all the negative information that is only going to drain your mind of positive energy

Number two

You need to be aware of who you associate with. If you are looking to create new friendships go to places where people enjoy what you enjoy. If you like to hike join a hiking club, if you like to dance take a dance class. If you are looking to grow your business join a business development club etc.

You need to be in a place where you are most likely to find people who can influence you in the right direction you want to go. Delete from your life the places you go to that only end up giving you bad experiences. You know where they are.

Sound like old information? It is and yet it can change your life for the positive today.

Enjoy a wonderful day,

David
