Many suggest that "luck is something you do." Nonetheless, I often relate to my patients that what we focus upon tends to become our reality, because we will likely do things and allow things to occur (both consciously and unconsciously) consistent with that structured focus, in order to manifest our desires. Recent best-selling books, like Dr. Wayne Dyer's "The Power of Intention" and Rhonda Byrne's "The Secret," eloquently reaffirm this inspirational messages of success.
This positive change is mostly achieved, through the interplay of imagery, personal intention, and the "power of attraction." Although all the ideas shared within these remarkable program are not necessarily based in science, one can nonetheless benefit from acting "as if" the ideas are all-true, in order to facilitate success. I believe that the true wisdom of "The Secret," for example, is its ability to captivate a world's imagination, by offering its heartfelt reminder of the true nature of limitless possibilities and the power of human perseverance.
For those who may still struggle to accept the "power inherent within their belief," nineteenth century philosopher, Arthur Schopenhauer, likely summed it best when he said, "All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident."
Consistent with these insights, the Internet offers a limitless array of invaluable, inspirational videos and quotes like the following timeless examples:
* "You create your own universe as you go along."
- Winston Churchill
* "The World is as You Dream It."
- Shamanic Teaching
* "Take the first step in faith. You don't have to see the whole staircase. Just take the first step."
- Martin Luther King Jr.
* "All that we are is the result of what we have thought."
- Buddha
* "Men are disturbed not by things, but by the view which they take of them."
- Epictetus
* "What power this is I cannot say. All that I know is that it exists."
- Alexander Graham Bell
* "Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life's coming attractions."
- Albert Einstein
* "What you resist persists."
- Carl Jung
* "Freedom is what you do with what's been done to you."
- Jean-Paul Sartre
* "All power is from within and is therefore under our control"
- Robert Collier
* "Whether you think you can or can't, either way you are right."
- Henry Ford
* "Follow your bliss and the universe will open doors for you where there were only walls."
- Joseph Campbell
* "Every thought of yours is a real thing; a force."
- Prentice Mulford
* "If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change."
- Dr. Wayne Dyer
