Define Your Success Now 

By BOB LANCER

Success is something that you get to define for yourself.  Just thinking about what success means to you sets creative forces into motion aimed at bringing it about.

This is because there are certain natural, creative laws that govern the direction of your life. 

One of these laws can be stated as follows: "You bring about what you think about."  Another way of stating this can be, "Your life heads in the direction of your attention" or "Whatever gets your attention gets you."

The conscious control and direction of your power of thought and attention can therefore be regarded as a master key secret to your success.

To the extent that circumstances determine the direction of your thought and attention, you feel like a victim and believe yourself to be trapped in a life that you don't want.  

As you gain conscious control over the direction of your thought and attention, you see with increasing clarity how you create the very conditions that you want out of. 

Any situation that you do not want to be in exists in your mind as a concept or vision of what is happening to you. 

As long as you remain unconscious of that inner act of projection, you relate with it as reality. Trying to change your reality without awakening to how you are causing yourself to experience that reality is like blaming the blurry quality of your poor eyesight on the physical conditions around you.

Whether see yourself or your situation as a success or failure results from your mental perception of your situation.  As long as you regard your success or failure as an external condition, that condition remains beyond your control. 

To experience your success right now involves few simple steps:

1.Observe what you are feeling and thinking.

2.When you observe yourself feeling or thinking of yourself or your situation as a failure, continue observing that inner condition until you see that it is nothing more than an inner projection.

3.When you see this, you can also see how you actually may be on the path of total success.

4.Then, whether you experience failure or success becomes nothing but a choice that you can make right now.

Seeing and feeling like a failure plunges your spirits into despair and prevents others from feeling confident in you. You then block yourself from doing what you love because you feel undeserving of that, and because you imagine it as leading to loss and let-down.

Seeing and feeling like a success boosts your spirits and attracts the confidence of others.  It may in and of itself open doors of opportunities. Beyond this, it frees you to live life on your own terms, doing what you feel truly inspired and spiritually called to do, doing what you love, following your passion. It fulfills you with the sense of being on the path leading to your goals as you do what you regard aligns with your goal and feeds your soul in the present.
