  • You Simply Need to Turn Yourself On!
    The average person drifts through life in a mindless daze, so says many years research. They waste their mental energy on listening to the noise in their heads - noise that distracts, little voices that say "No you can't!". Yet the only thing that we can control in our lives is our state of mind. If we do, we unleash an inner potential that is capable of transforming our lives into the success we want. We need to stop listening to the noise.

  • Crazy Parents - Crazy Kids
    Normal adults are crazy. Research proves that they live their lives automatically, paying little or no attention to what they're doing or what's really go on. That means that normal parents are raising their children - automatically and mindlessly - to become, just like them, normal crazy adults. But this is not inevitable. We can all learn from our children, for they, as we did, have the natural ability to mindfully experience the wonder of now.

  • Why Approval is Worse than Crack (and how to quit)
    We've all been raised on the drug of approval - there's nothing nicer than someone saying something nice to you or about you. Yet all this approval by others is wasting your energy, divorcing your from the real and, ultimately, amazing powerful real you within. You need to start approving of yourself. To do this, you need to reacquaint yourself with the real you, beyond your perceived inadequacies. Five minutes, each day, will take you there.

  • Choice
    Whether or not you're having a beautiful day is up to you - you choose. Everyone is constantly making life-changing choices - moment to moment. You choose whether to be fully effective and present or, if you're normal, you choose to devote your mental attention to your formative past. These choices are only subconscious because you haven't realised that you can make these choices deliberately. Deliberate choices will also change your life.

  • How to Get What You Want Out of Life
    Did you know that your subconscious mind creates your daily life, based on pictures it has stored since your childhood? Did you know that, if you could give your subconscious new "photographs" of the life that you really want, it would focus on those in the same way and create new behaviours and a new life? In this article you will find simple instructions, that anyone can follow, to set your subconscoious off in the direction your heart desires.

  • Using Your Energy to Create Success
    Your intentions, expectations, thoughts create your life because they are mental energy, everything is made of energy and energy is responsive, as proven by modern science. To create your ideal life, however, you need to use your mental energy in an abnormal way. Normally, energy is wasted in the deep recesses of your mind - on your own misperceptions about yourself and life. You need to redirect your energy into the reality and the here and now.

  • Your Comfort Zone is Killing You
    People are not uncomfortable enough to do a little something that would change their lives immeasurably. It takes five minutes each morning to get your head in the right place for the day ahead. Those five minutes put you "in the zone" enabling you use your energy to create each day perfectly. Otherwise, you're throwing away your greatest opportunity. Science proves we create our own lives. Your creative power is within. Time to start using it.

  • Changing Inappropriate Behaviour
    Normal people don't know how to behave themselves - inappropriate behaviour abounds. But don't confuse your inappropriate behaviour with who you truly are, because your behaviour is dictated by your programmed subconscious mind. It's time to take back control of your mind. Then, your inappropriate behaviour will simply fade away and you will be the better person for it. Take back control by re-learning how to pay attention to the here and now.

  • Taking Action to Achieve Success
    Outside events do not shape your life - your own mind does. If you're not entirely happy with the life you currently lead, it's entirely within your own power to change it. Firstly, you need to define what happiness and success means just for you. Then you need to take action - rather than the mindless reaction that creates the normal life. You can start today by breaking your daily routine. You then set yourself up for a life of your own making.

  • How Secure is Your Job?
    There is no such thing as certainty or security. Everthing is in a constant state of flux. You can neither make assumptions about the future nor can you depend on other people or events for your own wellbeing. This constant flux is, however, our greatest opportunity. It enables us create our world, on our terms, if we rise to the challenge of being clear enough and present enough to seize the opportunity. All you need is a clear and present mind.

  • The Law of Attraction - Are You an Outlaw?
    Many people read self-help books, like the sound of the Law of Attraction but do nothing practical every day in their daily lives. People delude themselves into thinking that they "live by the law" - but if you've no concrete results to show for your efforts, then you're doing something wrong. You need to LIVE the law of attraction, not understand it. You need to take real action - that means focusing, not on your dreams, but on the here and now.

  • How You Are Who You Are
    We are victims of our upbringing because our formative years formed our frame of reference for our view of what's possible or not possible and our strengths and weaknesses. Most importantly, our early years are the subconscious basis for our adult behaviour. Our subconscious pays attention to that past, rather than the present moment, so we miss what's really going on now - we miss out on life's opportunities that could be staring us in the face.

  • Want to be a Success? Change Your Life
    People are not satisfied or content with their "lot" in life. Some are stressed, don't like their job, or are in unhappy relationships. Yet normal people cannot change their lives because they will not act. Want to change your life? You've got to start acting differently - you're the one who's got to make a small change to achieve big change.

  • No More Bad News
    What kind of sick media minds continually push bad news on us? Or, actually, what kind of sick minds have such a voracious appetite for bad news? Normal people, that's who! Normal people are very sick people - they use almost none of their mental capability, only perceive what they expect and, as a result, live normal "not too bad" lives. Not good enough! The good news is that you can choose to be abnormal - abnormally successful and happy.

  • Get Over Your Faults and Failings
    We all have faults and failings - fact. But they don't make us bad people - they are behaviours created automatically by a subconscious mind over which we need to exercise control. The normal subconscious is out of control, normal behaviour being dictated according to self-perceptions we learned during our formative years. Grasp control of your ability to live life to the full, free of repetitive behaviour and the associated guilt...

  • Cosmic Ordering and the Law of Attraction
    Ask and you shall receive - you don't have to do anything, you simply place your order and await delivery. This "cosmic ordering" is dangerous nonsense - misleading already vulnerable minds into self-destructive inaction when what is required is appropriate action. But normal people can't take appropriate action - you have to be a little abnormal. Then, quantum physics confirms that universal energy will respond to your wholehearted actions.

  • Stop Reading Self-Help Books!
    Normal people live normal lives. They read lots of "self-help" books but nothing ever changes. They (you) need to start living and experiencing the wonder of now. In being focused in the here and now, you develop presence - an attribute always ascribed to people whose names we all know - abnormally successful people. Do you want to be abnormally successful, effortlessly? The solution is entirely in your own hands - here and now.

  • Is Self-Help a Scam?
    Recent university research suggests that self help "makes you feel worse". But the researchers know nothing about self-help - they studied self-affirmation. And self-affirmation is a scam - you'll never convince yourself that you're wonderful if you don't believe it in your heart and soul. To really help yourself, you need to get in touch with that heart and soul, the part of you that can create the life and happiness that you really want...

  • Personal Success Comes from Mindfulness
    Mindfulness is your key to a life of effortless success. It is the exact opposite of how so-called "normal" people live their lives - they lead mindless automatic lives. Mindfulness is being present in the here and now - fully immersed in where you are and what you're doing. Mindfulness enables you be more present - have more presence, be more impressive. Above all, mindfulness will enable you go places that normal people can never venture...

  • Meteoric Personal Development!
    Myself and my family recently watched the annual Perseid Meteor Shower, a humbling experience which got me thinking about my place in the universe. It brought to mind a client's question about how a "loving God" allows tragedy happen in people's lives. Most importantly, it re-defined for me, how I need to control my mental power and potential - to invest my mental energy in a universe that quantum physics tells us will respond to our investment.

  • Even More Strategies for Effortless Business Success
    You can either have a normal business or you can create an exceptionally successful business - effortlessly. In my two previous articles on the subject, I discussed how one might define success and how, then, one sets out to achieve that success. Now, I discuss the most important aspect of business success - focus. Abnormally successful people are single-minded and abnormally focused, not on their goals, but on the task in hand, the here and now.

  • Inspirational Leadership
    It only takes one person to believe. Those true believers stand out as inspirational leaders. But anyone - and that includes you - can be an inspirational leader, in your work and business and for your family and friends. All it takes is a belief in a compelling goal. Believing is not wishing, hoping or wanting, it's seeing, feeling, hearing, smelling and tasting what it feels like to have already achieved what your heart desires...

  • What Normal People Want
    Surprisingly, by their actions, normal people don't want success or happiness - they want to stay "not too bad" and want abnormally successful people to be normal too. There's no one more threatening to a normal person than someone who "has it all" and, yet, research proves that normal people are technically insane. Which would you choose - effortless success in your business and personal life - or to be normal and not too bad? No choice really!

  • How to Create Your Ideal Life
    Research suggests that the vast majority of people live far from their ideal lives. Yet, normal people somehow believe that new things will happen for them if they keep doing the same things - normal people rarely change their behaviour. If you want your ideal life, you have to do things differently, take new actions and, above all, discipline your mind. Then you can cultivate the clear and present state of mind that will create your ideal life.

  • How to Get Your Own Way
    People rarely take action - they react. Years of research prove that our reactive behaviour takes us away from getting what we want out of life - when all we have to do, instead, is take "right action". But to take right action, you need a clear and present mind. And to be mindful, you need to practice. Meditation is what's called for (in whatever form turns you on) enabling you take the right action to create the life you really really want.

  • Breaking Away from Frustration and Worry
    Frustration and worry are an integral part of many people's daily lives. And, yet, they are no more than useless thoughts which, if entertained, disable us by making us even more frustrated, more worried. Psychology tells us that the normal subconscious is buried in the past, whilst the conscious worries about the future. We need to rise above normality and rid our lives of the effects of frustration and worry. A clear and present mind is needed.

  • The Motivational You
    We need to get a kick out of life. Yet research suggests that we're stressed, unhappy at work, worried about money and frustrated in our apparent inability to achieve our goals and dreams. We need to motivate ourselves - but does that mean one part of me needs to motivate another part of me? The evidence suggests that that is the case - your real potential is being held back by your perceived personality - it's a battle the real you must win.

    People lead routine, boring, mundane lives - or so they think. Yet, this apparent reality is a figment of the so-called normal mind's imagination - routine and boredom are nothing but useless thoughts. They seem real because the normal mind never pays attention to the here and now - it is lost in a version of the now created by out-dated mental programs.

  • How to Make the Right Life Choices
    Each moment we make choices that change the course of our life. Big choices are obvious - like a major career move, like marriage. But all the little choices we make in reaching those major crossroads that are just as vital. The people who are closest to you in life were once total strangers and you never know who the next stranger might be who could change your life. You need to be constantly alert to make the right choices - moment to moment.

    Communication is about making an impression. Yet technology deludes us into thinking that we have become great communicators - email, text, Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, Blackberries, enables us send information. But does it make any real difference, is anyone listening? Your success and happiness is effected by your ability to communicate - to make a good impression. Develop your presence and you will become the ultimate communicator.

  • Work Harder - Not Smarter!
    Normal people work harder (not smarter). Most of them don't like their work - and that's what puts the "hard" into work. And whilst you may not be able to control your work, career or your boss, there's certainly one thing you can control that will have a major effect on all those others and that's your own state of mind. A clear and present mind not only takes the "hard" out of work - it can set your life off on an effortlessly successful path.

    Remember those timeless long sunny summer holiday days when you were a child - and contrast that to your normal adult state of mind! Research suggests that your ability to be effortlessly happy and successful is directly linked to your ability ot pay attention - that's exactly what you were doing when you were that child, experiencing those long sunny days. You've to become like a child again - it's the key to achieving all the success you want.

  • Normal People are Lazy
    Normal people are not uncomfortable enough to do anything to break out of their mundane, repetitive lives. They complain that they don't like their jobs, they spend their lives telling others that they're "not too bad", but they never do anything to be really successful and happy. And that could all change effortlessly. If I told you that a commitment of ten minutes each morning would change your life beyond recognition, would you be interested?

    Normal people don't control their own minds (70 years research proves this). As a result, normal businesses are, at best, not remotely as successful as they could be, at worst, totally dysfunctional (more research proves this). But how about taking an abnormal approach to business? How about not only taking control of your mind but demanding the same of your senior manegement team? The result will be effortless and exceptional success.

    What's the point of telling people about the power of now, if they don't like now? Lots of people don't like their lives but the mistake they make is they feel victimized and do nothing about it.

  • A Clear and Present Mind - Meditation and Flow
    Normal lives and repetitive and mundane. Normal people only rarely experience "peak performance" moments - when something so "out of the ordinary" happens them that it demands them to pay more than a normal amount of attention. Psychologists call that "flow". But we can choose to be in "flow". We can choose, ourselves, to pay an abnormal amount of attention to the present moment and, in doing so, begin to live and abnormally successful life.

    Recognition - the psychological process by which we make sense of everything that is going around us. Or do we? Could it be that one of our key psychological "abilities" results in us making nonsense of what is really going on? Does it result in us misbehaving as a result of our automatic ability to react? Worse of all would you recognise an opportunity if it stared you in the face? For "normal" people, the answer is generally "No". Read on.

  • How to Achieve Financial Freedom
    People are obsessed with money. Over 90% of males say it is their main worry. Unfortunately, if you worry about money, money worries are what you'll get! Universal energy responds to your input - constantly worry about not having enough money - or doing what you do for a "living" just for the money - and you'll never have the financial freedom that so many yearn for. But, put your quality of life first and money will look after itself!

  • Learning How to Control Yourself
    Normal people are out of control. Instead of reflecting and considering what is the best approach to handle all the various challenges that life throws at us, we react automatically and mindlessly. As a result, we create an automatic life which is way short of the life we could otherwise have. We need to regain control. This is done by relearning how to pay attention. This is done by coming to our senses. You have five of them - use them!

  • Want Nothing - Prefer to Have it All
    Generally speaking, people constantly want. They may want something they don't have or more of something they have already. Wanting makes people unhappy - makes peace of mind elusive or impossible. Stop wanting - start enjoying the wonder of the now - it's the only time and place you have.

One of the most destructive normal behaviours is the way we label people. We offend, hurt and kill each other because of those "labels".

    Bookshops are full of "popular psychology" and "self-help" books - yet most lives stay the same and the world appears to be in a bigger mess than ever. The problem is that an intellectual understanding of "self-improvement" books is not enough - and, in fact, can be quite dangerous. You need to experience the difference between being "normal" and the "altered state of mind" in which you can clearly see the way towards happiness and success.

  • Create the life you want - in the real world - really!
    People are increasingly resorting to the virtual world to take their minds off the "not too bad" lives that they think they have in the so-called "real world". What is really strange about this is that years of published research and thousands of self-help books explain that your current life is a creation of your own thinking and, by the same token, the life you really want can be created by you changing your mind. Really! In the real world!

  • How to Deal With Fear, Stress and Anxiety
    Fear, anxiety and stress are all very "real" experiences of modern living. These emotions are nothing other than useless thoughts which disable us from dealing with the stresses and strains of life. If we allow our minds to play tricks on us, by "entertaining" these thoughts, then we open up the floodgates of suffering. The very real alternative is to take control of our minds and put to them to use in creating the life that we really want.

  • Are You a Leader - Or Are You a Loser?
    What's the difference between a "leader" and a "manager"? The answer - "leaders" have more presence than normal people. Anyone can rise through the ranks to become a "manager" or a "CEO" - but only some of us are born leaders! Wrong! We all have the innate ability to lead - because, in fact, we were all born leaders in the first place. We all had "presence" as little children - we need to re-learn what comes naturally and change our lives.

  • Boring Minds - Boring Lives
    Normal people (that's most of us) lead normal, mundane lives. Most people are unhappy in their work. Successful people think they paid too high a price for success. Few people are truly happy. Why? Because we're boring. We do the same things, most days, habitually. Our minds are bored because we're so well equipped to do our routine tasks automatically. The same automaticity bores our minds. And boring minds create boring lives.

  • How to Cope When Things Go Wrong
    Life is full of ups and downs. Too often, the "downs" overwhelm us. We react and make things worse instead of calming down, seeing what is really happening and taking real action to sort things out. We must understand that, in fact, there's only one thing in life that we can control - our own state of mind. If we do, we can positively influence everything else that's going on around us and, when the wheels do come off, take real action.

  • Irritated? Annoyed? Stressed? Don't Scratch That Itch - Meditate
    I'm sure we all know people who are only itching for us to get involved in their little drama - making them feel more important. One of my clients calls these people "energy vampires" - if you let them, they'll suck you dry. Our daily lives are filled with potential irritations and annoyances - to the point that many people are now suffering from stress. But you're the master of your own mind - grab a hold of the controls!

  • Treble Your Income? Why Not Get Your Priorities Right?!
    Almost everybody is obsessed with money. So-called self-help websites mainly focus on money - "Treble Your Income" or "Watch Your Income Explode!" they shout. But that's putting the cart before the horse. Years of research and thousands of years of wisdom suggest that if you put the quality of your life first, money will look after itself. Bizarre? Not at all, my clients stretching back over thirteen years confirm it. Read on!

  • How to Focus Your Mind and Change Your Life
    By our nature, we cannot pay attention to the things we have to do. "Automaticity" enables us do routine tasks on "auto pilot", so we don't waste attention on little things that we do every day.

  • Looking for Love
    Dating is now big business - lot's of people have stopped doing what comes naturally (finding a mate) as they get sucked into the frenzy of modern living. The big problem is that because so-called "normal" people do not pay attention (years of research proves it) your "soul mate" could be standing right in front of you and you wouldn't see them. You need to re-learn how to pay attention - to notice the opportunities before your very eyes.

  • Second Life? Why Not Get a First One!
    Increasingly, people are turning to the virtual world to paper over the cracks of the real one.

Wouldn't it make more sense to get a First Life? Our thoughts create our lives - years of research prove this. Change your mind and you'll change your life.

  • The Dangers of Positive Thinking
    Many 'gurus' recommend "Positive Thinking" and "Affirmation" as the best way to get yourself "in the zone". Not so - the most effective state of mind is a focused one. In other words, a clear state of mind, one in which you are alert to today's opportunities.Many years research has shown that abnormally successful people operate in this clear, focused, alert state of mind.

  • No More Stress or Depression
    Stress and depression account for more lost workdays than any other 'illness'. Yet, research shows that stress is a 'state of mind' and that we can control our state of mind if we choose. 'Normal' people don't choose - they live automatic lives, reacting to external events without stopping to think how best they should act. How about learning how to focus - when you're focus, stress simply isn't!

  • Thinking Outside the Box
    Lots of people talk about 'thinking outside the box' when it comes to innovation or problem solving. But our education system, society at large and corporate culture all conspire to keep us firmly in our box from which - for so-called 'normal' people, there appears to be no escape. But we can all name people, in business, sport and public life, who are ab-normally successful. Why? They use thier minds differently - we all can.
