Dr. Tone LaMotta, author of What You Really Want Wants You shared with me this quote from Bob Proctor.

Realizing I hadn’t seen it before, I did some research. I could find that exact phrase, but found all those words and the same concept over and over.

And a wonderful story told by Bob Proctor:

In 9th grade, I knew this guy who got kicked out of school.

Feeling stuck, he got a low paying job and did not anticipate any sort of success coming his way.

Things were going from bad to worse when the book, "Think and Grow Rich" by Napoleon Hill, was given to him. That little book was, not only the first book he had ever read, but it brought a major turning point in his life, as well as in the Personal Development industry as a whole.

From that point he went from earning $4,000 a year to over $1,000,000 a year in a short amount of time. And it has only been up-hill ever since

The guy in the story is Bob Proctor.

A simple idea can make a big difference. Dr. Lamotta reminded me of that, and many other ways that you can be happy in in any economy at any time.

Nan Akasha’s Already Rich: Secrets to Master Your Money Mind comes out today and I thought you’d like to see a short excerpt:

I told you I like to go to the core, to get the fastest and most accurate results. The core of who you are is your self image. Your self image is the blueprint from which your systems operate, It is what your mind, your ego, and the Universe use as a guide to know what you want. Remember these systems are here 24/7 working to bring you what you want.

“Why don’t I have the money I want then?” You ask. I’ll bet a large portion of you reading this book right now, have read tons of books, taken classes and tried meditating, visualizing, making vision boards and more, with some or no results.

It’s not that these techniques aren’t useful. It is that you can only make ‘skin deep’ changes when you do not first change your self image. It is a bit like covering up an ugly old chair with a blanket. It may look better, but it is still an ugly old chair underneath. It will never change by covering it with hopes, wishes and weak affirmations.

Will power works only when applied to keeping focused on your vision and staying committed to your goal. It is not to be used to change habits, beliefs or create true transformation. Anyone who has ever been on a diet knows this. What always happens in the end? You cannot sustain the diet because it is not transforming you from within. It is attempting to force a change on you from outside.

Your shift must occur within you first, in order to transform your outer world experience. Change the internal landscape, energy and image, and the outside naturally shifts to match. It can literally dissolve and then take the shape of your new self image in an instant, if you let it!

Here’s what they said about the traits of HAPPY PEOPLE

Despite the difficulty in pinning down what happiness is and how to achieve it, HowStuffWorks.com has taken a stab at it in this article, in which they offer 10 key tips.

• Keep Happy People Around: Studies have shown that happiness is contagious. When someone’s friends or neighbors experience happiness, those positive feelings are often passed on to the people around them. Happy people also tend to cluster together in social groups.
• Exercise: Exercising lowers the body’s levels of cortisol, a hormone associated with stress. You may have also heard of endorphins. Exercise causes the pituitary gland to release these powerful, mood-boosting chemicals.
• Meditate: Some studies show that meditation improves happiness. Consequently, activities like meditation, yoga and practicing mindfulness may boost your level of happiness and satisfaction.
