I realized that the words you hear shape you, but the most important words you’ll ever hear in your entire life are the words you say to yourself.

This becomes easier as you find the flip side of every negative thought and use that instead. • Whatever we focus on we move towards. • Whatever we focus on we experience and feel. • Whatever we focus on we get more of; it becomes more real to us.

In the dry places, men begin to dream. Where the rivers run sand, there is something in man that begins to flow. West of the 98TH Meridian - where it sometimes rain and it sometimes doesn’t – towns, like weeds, spring up when it rains, dry up when it stops. But in a dry climate, the husk of the plant remains. The stranger might find, as if preserved in amber, something of the green life that was once lived there, and the ghosts of men who have gone on to a better place. The withered towns are empty, but not uninhabited. Faces sometimes peer out from the broken windows, or whisper from the sagging balconies, as if this place – now that is dead – had come to life. As if empty it is forever occupied. Reproduced in THE BORSCHT BELT from The Works of Love by Wright Morris by permission of the University of Nebraska Press. Copyright 1949, 1951 by Wright Morris.

Somewhat unfortunately, you have to feel it in order to understand it and therefore heal it. But even though that’s painful, in that understanding comes a phenomenal transformation that enables you to let go.

The key is not to try to belong or try to fit in but to feel comfortable enough in ourselves to feel good about being around other people and to radiate that out to others.

Now return your arm to the beginning position in front of you then close your eyes for a moment and just imagine and see your arm moving even further, up to 25 per cent, behind you. Really see this in your mind for a moment. Now tell yourself your arm is going to move 25 per cent further. Say this to yourself three or four times. Now open your eyes, repeat the arm moving out behind you procedure and notice just how much further your arm will move.

You must say I AM ENOUGH constantly, say it out loud, say it with feeling, say it like you mean it and say it over and over again and do so for weeks until it sinks in and replaces the feeling that you are not enough which may be holding you back.

• Your past is not you. • Your bank account is not you. • Your body is not you. • Your weight is not you. • Your age is not you. • Your job is not you.

You must write out your goals, think about your goals and talk about your goals and make plans to achieve them so your subconscious mind then works to make your goals come to fruition.

Despite all this, my successful clients seem to share a common trait when it comes to tackling their problems and going after their dreams. Each morning, when they get up, they do what they hate or dislike and get it done first. Indeed, doing what you hate—and getting it out of the way by doing it first—is one of the quickest ways to inject success into your life. If you can create this habit and apply it across your life, you will see your life change.

So the key is repetition of these positive visualisations. It takes repeating and practising something twenty-one times over twenty-one days for the brain to create new neurological habit pathways, and in turn it takes twenty-one days for those pathways to begin to diminish if you cease the actions. Various studies have shown that it takes the brain a minimum of ten days and a maximum of twenty-one days to let go of an old belief and replace it with another one. Twenty-one days of affirmations and new habits of language and

One of the rules of the mind is that feelings will ALWAYS overcome logic as they are so much more powerful, so it stands to reason we have to change the feelings rather than the logic. We have to change the feelings that make you hold back and fear taking risks or taking action. This is exactly what you are going to learn to do. By changing the feelings about putting yourself forward, being the centre of attention or speaking to strangers, those actions will cease to be a worry to you and you will find you can enjoy them.

One of the most important lessons I ever learnt was to stop fearing rejection.

In order to have real inner confidence and lasting self-esteem you must know, feel and believe that you are enough because this realisation is very much at the heart of confidence of all types.

What is necessary is the ability to get an image of how you plan to be and to hold that image in your mind, relax into the image and use language that matches the image, and keep rerunning the image so you are rehearsing it to such an extent that your brain thinks, ‘I have been here before, I know how to do this, it is
