One of the great strategies for success is to act as if you are already where you want to be. This means thinking like, talking like, and dressing like, feeling like the person who has already achieved your goal. Acting as if sends powerful commands to your subconscious mind to find creative ways to achieve your goals. It programs the reticular activating system (RAS) in your brain to start noticing anything that will help you succeed, and it sends strong messages to the universe that this end goal is something you really want.

I have a friend that works for a large bank. He started working there as a teller and I noticed he always wore a suite and tie. Unlike the other male tellers who wore the basic bank uniform. My mate always looked like an executive.

Any way about a year later he told me he had ben promoted to his own desk where he was in charge of loan applications. Two years later, he was the senior loans manager and later he became the branch manager. I asked him about this one day, and he said that he always knew that he would be the branch manager, so he studied how the manager dressed and started dressing that way. He studied how the manager treated people and started interacting with people the same way. He started acting as if he were a branch manger long before he ever became one.

BE, DO, AND HAVE EVERYTHING YOU WANT…… STARTING NOW

You can begin right now to act as if you have already achieved any goal you desire, and that outer experience of acting as if will create the inner experience – the millionaire mind set, as it were – that will take you to the actual manifestation of that experience.  

Once you choose what it is you want to be, do and have, all you have to do is start acting as if you already are being, doing or having it. How would you act if you already were a straight A student, top salesperson, rich entrepreneur, highly paid consultant, world class athlete, best selling author, international artist, sought after speaker or a celebrated actor or musician? How would you think, act, carry yourself, dress, treat other people, handle money, eat, live, travel and so forth?  

 Once you have a clear picture of that, start being it – Now! Successful people exude self-confidence, ask for what they want, and say what they don’t want. They think anything is possible and they take risks and celebrate their success. They save a portion of their income and support and add value to others. You can do all these things now before you become rich and successful. These things don’t cost money, just intention. And as soon as you start acting as if, you will start drawing to you the very people and things that will help you achieve it in real life.  

 Remember, the proper order of things is to start now and be who you want to be, then do the actions that go along with being that person, and soon you will find that you easily have every thing you want in life. So remember Act As If.

Until next time Do the Do, the work works.

And go live a life of Focus, Love & Passion. Tim.
