subject: Ken Betterton Says - Become The Person You Want To Be Today [print this page] We all have dreams of what we want to be when we grow up. But doesnt it seem like theres always something standing in the way of your dreams? Youre not skinny enough to go skydiving, not smart enough to get that degree, not healthy enough to start that business. Most of us construct obstacles to our happiness, create reasons why were not good enough to get what we want.
But what if there were no obstacles? What if the life we wanted were right in front of us, just waiting to be claimed? What if success and happiness were just that easy?
Truth is, it is just that easy, and heres how you do it.
Sit down and ask yourself what youd feel like if all your dreams came true. Today. Right now. How would you feel inside? What would you do differently? Then, take those feelings of success, of happiness, and wear them like your favorite shirt. Every day. Every hour. Every minute of your waking life.
This is one of the Power Principles of happy, successful people. They always act AS IF they are living their dream life. They dont wish and hope for something more down the road someday. They are living their dream lives TODAY, not in the future when some self-imposed conditions are met.
Surround yourself with the people that will help make your dream life possible. If you want to be a rapper, then hang out with other rappers. Learn from them and create your own style. Go practice your art in front of a record labels offices. Create videos and put them on the web where everyone can enjoy them. Maybe youll get discovered, maybe you wont. But youre living the life you want to live. And that means YOU WIN.
Create a vision board of your perfect life. Get a 3X5 poster board and paste pictures of the house you want, the clothes you like, the people you admire. Write power phrases on it. Cover it with glitter and feathers if you like. Do whatever YOU feel is right to help you envision your perfect life and make it a reality. Look at the board every day and make it your reality.
What you think about is what you become. This message has been passed down through the ages. The Bible mentions it. Aristotle wrote about it. Shakespeare wrote about it. The Secret made millions from it.
So, the big question is what are you thinking about? Make sure your thoughts are creating the life you want to live. When you live, breathe, and believe in your dreams, amazing things happen.
