When we were young we all had people that we looked up too and tried to emulate. Whether it be a superhero,rock star,model, movie star ,athlete…you get my drift. For people that have a burning desire to succeed in life in any chosen calling I suggest that you pick a role model to pattern yourself after. The best in any field have always had hero warship, it goes back all through the ages of society, that the best emulate the best. I read some very interesting literature in one of Napoleon Hills books that pertains to this subject. At night before going to sleep he would close his eyes in bed and hold an imaginary council meeting. This meeting would consist of people who he regarding as great people whom he desired their talents in the fields that they excelled in.
He states that after repetition of these imaginary meetings, that they became very real. So real that he had to stop for a time because he was losing a sense of reality. He would have Edison on one side of him asking advice on imagination , Emerson would be in the room and asked for advice on connecting to the natural laws of nature. He revered Carnegie,Ford and Lincoln for their great leadership and mastermind principals. I’ve tried this exercise and It’s amazing with some focussed concentration and imagination how much it works. I chose Naploeon Hill himself, Will Smith,Sidney Crosby, Mario Lemieux just to name a few. All people I look up too for their integrity and desire to be great! What ends up happening is even during the day I will hear these peoples voices driving me. Funny enough Napoleon Hill ended up meeting all his people that he held imaginary meetings with other than the ones that were deceased obviously.
Associating yourself with successful people is a must if you intend on becoming a success. We become who we associate ourselves with and take on traits of our environment no matter what. So it depends on how you measure success on how far you want to take it. For myself I desire inner happiness,love,healthy mind and body and financial freedom to travel and connect to amazing people around the world. This whole life we are living is an experience of of lifetime literally, and it’s our choice to dictate the state of our mind and direct it to what it is we truly desire! We’ve been given all the tools by nature to create a masterpiece of our own life or except mediocrity and be realistic. The adventure of life all starts with a leap of faith and having some fun with what we were blessed with. Work with what you do have and focus on the CAN do portion of what you want in life.
There’s all kinds of awesome videos on Youtube of great inspirational people that we can learn from and pick up dominant traits that will effect our vibration with enough practiced attention to it. This is the last blog of 2011 folks, and I just want to thank everyone that has made my life better. I write these blogs out of my sincere desire to be helpful. Lets all co create together in 2012 and make it the best year yet. We can all make a difference.
