How To Achieve All Of Your Goals: Part 1
By Wayne F. Perkins, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist

Have you started another New Year only to revert back to all of your old habit patterns and limitations? Do you ever wonder if you will ever become the person you know you deserve to become? Do you really want to achieve all of you goals in life?

This is the first of a five part series called "How To Achieve All Of Your Goals." It is designed to augment your self-hypnosis exercises in order to guarantee the success of your hypnotic prescriptions.

This program will assist you in achieving all of your goals.

The five parts of my plan on helping you achieve all of your goals are: 

1. Bury the dead... 
2. Write it down... 
3. Create an image book or treasure map... 
4. Create and participate in a mastermind group... 
5. Become a mentor...

Step 1 - Bury The Dead...

Have you ever been hurt physically, emotionally or spiritually by anyone? Do you still harbor ill feelings toward those that hurt you? Do you feel unworthy of the potential success that seems out of your grip?

You need to "bury the dead."

Burying the dead is burying all negative feelings you are directing toward another person, another group or another experience. When we harbor and nurture bad feelings towards others we actually turn those negative dreams or desires towards ourselves. 

William James, at the turn of the 20th Century stated that "whatever we hold in our mind, our body begins to move toward."

According to the principles of hypnosis practice we understand how this affects us as we center our thoughts on a goal. However, do we really fully comprehend how thoughts or ideas fixated towards others can lead to the same result?

For example, many scientists believe that thoughts are energy. As we direct these thoughts or energy towards personal goals, we start physically, emotionally, and spiritually, moving towards the desired result.

When we send these same thoughts or energy towards others, do we help others also reach their goals?

I believe we do.

If you believe in this theory, than is it not possible to send negative thoughts or energy towards those who have harmed us? If we do send these negative thoughts or energy towards others, aren't we also setting ourselves up for the same result?

Maybe, this is why many religions and philosophies around the world, state that we should love our enemies and only wish on another person what we would wish for ourselves.

Let us begin to practice that right now.

Practice by spending a few minutes each day, going over in your mind experiences with a person who has harmed you in some way. As you visualize this person, feel deep forgiveness for that person. Breathe deeply and relax a few moments as you reminisce. Wish for that person the same love and success that you yourself wish to receive in life. Forgive that person and forgive yourself for feeling in a negative way towards him/her.

Abraham Lincoln once stated, "the quickest way to defeat an enemy is to make that enemy your friend." In your mind, let's make that enemy your friend. You both have so much to gain by the experience. 

You will achieve all of your goals in life.
