Harold L. Lowe
Let us suppose that you are one of those people who has seen or read The Secret or any one of the other many published inspirational, self help, personal development works. You probably did so because you want to master the powers of your mind to Live your dreams. You want the freedom to do what you want to do when you want to do it.

I further believe you can improve your life for the better beginning right now, if you have not already done so, but only by mastering your mind power. I also believe that you probably suffer from some version of the same bug that afflicted me, the impatience bug.

You have likely been conditioned to want instant relief, instant results, therefore, you fail to realize that you did not reach your present conditions instantly, and you fail to reason that your life conditions are not going to change instantly.

I wish to be very clear about this. I believe that you or any person who sincerely wishes to do so can change for the better. It is not that terribly difficult. To do so, however, will require a desire for positive change, a commitment to taking charge of your mind, a basic understanding of how the mind works, a clear picture and understanding why positive change is desirable, some degree of acceptance of how the self image (also known as personality, psyche, map of reality, ego) is in control, a process, and persistence.

In addition, you will need another very critical component that is missing from the personal development regimen of most people, namely a tool, system, or technique to effectively work through setbacks, and the counter thoughts you will experience. In fact, I place this component on par with any of the others.

The absence of this component is the reason that even though the personal development industry experiences multi-billions of dollars in sales each year, relatively few people succeed in making the positive changes they desire. I do not believe I can overstate the importance of your gaining knowledge and understanding of the self image.

You deserve financial security, new enriching experiences, and recognition for your contributions to the world. If these conditions are not in you life now, you are going to have to make some changes to your self image. You must first master and control your mind and through your mind, change the self image.

As I have stated in earlier articles, your self image is in control of all of your consistent thoughts, images, ideas, and emotions in your life that are on automatic pilot. It has come to enjoy the seat of power it has gradually been allowed to occupy. If you do not reckon with it, it will stop you dead in your tracks each time you attempt to bring positive change into your life.

This I know for sure. You are the most miraculous of all living beings on earth. You are the owner of a mind that is so stupendous, that as you truly begin mastering your mind power and consciously using it, there is no dream that you can dream that you cannot achieve.

At times we all find it so difficult to go on when everything seems to fail, isn't it? Are there times in your life when you really want to call it "quits" because you just can't see any good results from all the hard work you've done? So what are we to do at times like these? How do we cope? Never ever think of giving up. Winners never quit and quitters never win as the old saying goes. Take all negative words out of your mental dictionary and be aware of what you are saying at all times, focus on the solutions with utmost conviction and patience.

One of the great on-going debates in the field of Psychology centers around what happens to those habits that no longer control us because we were able to reverse or replace them. I subscribe to the position of Gary Craig, founder of the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT).

Being motivated in life is quite difficult with showers of sadness and sorrow that soak us from time to time. You just struggle out of one stormy weather only to get into another. At this time the mind conjures negative emotions and with increasing bitter incidents it gets ugly. For instance you start your own business, but burn your fingers and when you try to withdraw you only realise you are neck deep in debt. So how do you overcome such untoward accidents? Well as it is said, ‘it’s all in the mind’.

Your self image could simply repeat past responses to similar situations. These infantile beliefs are the truths that the self image used to control nearly every aspect of your life in adulthood. Its repetitive control gradually became deeply ingrained habits.

Habit is both the problem and the solution to your mastering your mind power and more fully exercising the power of your mind. If you were to take inventory of the thoughts you consistently think from day to day, you would be amazed at how little conscious, focused thinking takes place because of habit.

Why let "you can't get there from here" naysayers keep you from a dream? A man stops to ask directions, only to be told, "You can't get there from here. If you were in Freeport, you could get there, but you can't get there from here." So he asks how to get to Freeport. "See. That’s the hard part. You can't get to Freeport." We laugh, but too many of us are behaving as if this were serious information about the journey called life. If, in fact, you can call stuck-in-a-rut a journey at all.
