The Secret Page #6

and people who aren't living

in the magic of life,

is that the people who are

living in the magic of life

have habituated ways of being.

They have habituated this process

and magic happens with them

wherever they go,

because they remember it and

they do it all the time,

not as a one time event.

People hold that for a while

and they're really a champion

at it and they say,

"You know what I'm fired up,

I saw this program

and I'm gonna change my life",

and yet you know results aren't

showing results aren't showing

and beneath the surface it's just

about ready to break through.

And someone will look at

the surface results and go,

"This stuff doesn't work."

You know what the universe says?

"Your wish is my command."

And it goes down.

Knowing the Law of Attraction,

I wanted to really put it to use

and to see if it was, you know

what would happen.

And in 1995 I started to create

something called a vision board,

where I take something that

I want to achieve

or something that I want to attract,

like a car or a watch or

the soul mate of my dreams,

and I put a picture of what I want

up on this board called

the Vision Board.

And every day I would sit in

my office

and I would look up at this board

and I would start to visualise,

I would really get into the state

of having already acquired it.

I was getting ready to move,

we put all

the furniture, all the boxes,

into storage,

and I made three different moves

over a period of five years,

and then I ended up in California

and bought this house,

renovated it for a year,

and then had all the stuff brought from my

former home five years earlier

One morning, about seven

thirty in the morning,

my son comes into

my office,

and one of the boxes that was

sealed for five years

was right at the door step.

And my son came in and he was sitting

on the box banging away at the box,

and I said, "Sweetheart will you please stop,

I'm doing some work here."

"What's in the boxes Daddy?"

And I said, "Well honey, those

are my Vision Boards."

"What's a Vision Board?"

I said, "Well it's where I put

all my goals up,

I cut them out and I put

all my goals up

as something that I want to

achieve in my life."

And of course at five and a half years

old he didn't understand,

and so I said, "Sweet let me

just show you,

that'll be the easiest way to do it."

And so I cut the box open

and when I pulled up the

Vision Boards

there was a picture on there of a home

that I was visualising

five years earlier,

and what was shocking to me was

we were living in that house.

Not a house like it.

I bought my dream home,

renovated it,

and didn't even know it.

But I looked at that house and I started

to cry because I was just blown away

"Why you crying?"

"Honey, I finally understand how

the Law of Attraction works.

I finally understand the power

of visualisation.

I finally understand

everything that I've read,

everything that I've worked with.

My whole life,

the way I've built companies.

It worked for my home as well,

and I bought our dream home

and didn't even know it."

Decide what you want,

believe you can have it,

believe you deserve it,

and believe it' s possible for you.

And then close your eyes every day

for several minutes and visualize

having what you already want,

and feeling the feelings of

already having it.

Come out of that

and focus on what you're

grateful for already.

And really be, enjoy it, okay

And then go into your day and release it

to the Universe,

and trust that the Universe

will figure out how

to manifest.

You know, the Secret was definitely

a real transformation for me,

because I grew up in a family where

my dad was very negative,

thought that rich people were people that

had ripped everyone off

Thought that anyone that had money

must have deceived somebody.

So I grew up with a lot

of beliefs about money

that if you had it,

it made you bad,

you know, only evil people

have money

and you know, money

doesn't grow on trees.

That was a big one.

"Who do you think I am, Rockefeller?"

That was one of his favourite phrases.

So I grew up truly believing

that life was difficult,

that it was hard,

you had to struggle.

And it was only when I met

W. Clement Stone,

that I literally began to

shift my life.

When I was working with Stone

he said, "I want you to set a

goal that' s so big

that if you achieved it,

it would blow your mind.

And you would know it' s only

because of what I've taught you

that you would have

achieved this goal."

Well, at the time

I was making about eight

thousand dollars a year

and for some reason I wanted something

that was really measurable,

so I said,

"I want to make a hundred

thousand dollars in a year."

I had no idea how I could do that.

I saw no strategy, no possibility

but I just said,

"I'm going to declare that,

I'm going to believe it,

I'm going to act as if it' s true,

and release it."

And so I did that.

And one of the things he

taught me was every day

to close your eyes and

visualize the goals

as if it's already achieved.

And I had actually made a

hundred thousand dollar bill

that I'd put on the ceiling.

So the first thing I'd see

when I woke up...

I'd look up and there it was

and it would remind me

that this was my intention.

And then I would close my

eyes and visualize

having this hundred thousand dollar

a year lifestyle.

And interestingly enough,

nothing major happened for

about thirty days.

You know, I didn't have any

great breakthrough ideas,

no-one was offering

me more money.

And all of a sudden

I was in the shower,

it was about four weeks into it,

and I had a hundred

thousand dollar idea.

It just came right into my head.

I had a book I had written,

and I said if I can sell four hundred

thousand copies of my book

at a quarter each,

that'd be a hundred thousand dollars.

Now, the book was there,

but Id never had this thought

And one of the secrets, I think, is

Now I didn't know how to do that,

I didn't know how I was going to sell

four hundred thousand copies,

we'd never done that.

And then I saw the National

Enquirer at the supermarket.

I had seen that millions of times,

and it was just background.

And all of a sudden it jumped

out at me as foreground.

And I thought, "Wow, if readers

knew about my book, certainly

four hundred thousand people

would go out and buy it.'

And about six weeks later I gave

a talk at Hunter College in New York

to six hundred teachers, and

this lady comes up at the end

and she says, - "That was a great talk,

I want to interview you.

Let me give you my card."

And I said, "Who do you write for?"

"I'm a freelancer,

but I sell most of my stuff

to the National Enquirer."

You know, and I had this

little theme from

the Twilight Zone went

off in my head.

"Dern-ner ner ner..."

Like, whoah, this stuffs really working.

So that article came out

and our book sales

started to take off
