I am also someone who is studying everything I can get my hands on to shape my life since over 10 years. It started out that I had to lift myself up, being in a bad marriage at the time. I had to get my selfconfidence back. By thinking about the way I found the perfect solution - subliminal recordings, which helped me to get myself back on track. I than got the deep desire that I do not want to struggle so much anymore, I remembered when I was 17 that I wanted to have a job, where I can make good Money and have a good life, better than my Parents have. But, what I know today, with my program inside - life got in the way and I gave in, because I was programmed that way. But with that deep desire I had back I was on the lookout what I could do, to make that Money and have a better life. Ofcourse I was looking for the right Job, what did not work out. I was just an Employee. Little later I thought get your own business. I started an Insurance Agency and I had a Restaurant. But nothing worked out. I also found and read a lot of books, like from Dale Carnegie, Napolion Hill, Kopmeyer and some more. I even got more subliminal Audio Tapes, Positive Thinking, Be Successful, Attracting Money. But I did not believe anything what was said. Because I just could not imagine how that could work. Believing is something I have a hard time with. I need to reason and to control. I always knew the saying "whatever you put your mind to it you can achieve. In this case I am strong minded and can achieve a lot of things, but always with my own afford and always in my mind what I can control.
About 5 years ago I heard about "The Secret". I watched that movie so many times and I did not get the point, because I am what you call a left brainer someone who needs proof, who is always searching for reasoning and scientific explainations. After seeing that movie I searcherd more and more. Meanwhile I have read, listen and seen everything Wayne Dyer has published. Read and listened to Deepak Chopra, Anthony Robbins. I have CD's from Brain Sync.Than I read something about the Quantum Thinking. I researched what I could find. I saw the movie : down through the wormhole and the new Movie: Quantum Thinking.
By now I have so much Knowledge about everything and anything you can imagine what has to do with what I intend to do - Change my Life - But I am still not one step ahead
. With my knowledge I have I helped others, made them feel better but I myself am still struggeling. I joined so many websites, but the outcome from all of them is that they are want to sell their products or are just affiliates from people who have products on the - how to - attract what you want etc. All the e-books I got out of that is just kind of copy of the secret. Of course they found a way to make money and call it the result of the law of attraction.I joint this forum to maybe finally get to talk to people who have real results.
and Merlin I am impressed! It's very cool and I am touched by your sharing. English is not my native language so I was a bit to shy to become a member. In a nutshell about me. I am a female living in Europe. Have with my partner a small business. I started with naps around september 2009 and I've quit/stopped with it around July 2010 and since this week I've started again with NAPS. In 2009 when I started with my own written NAPS my health did have an improvement of 200% I experienced it as a miracle because it was the first time for around 18 years that there was a steady pattern of being healthy. Then I used written naps from a book and cd's but I experienced that my own written naps have the most success. Around the middle of 2010 I quit/stopped with naps and got coaching sessions until july 2011. Of course some things changed with the coaching sessions but I experience again that some believes are so deep into the subconscious that I am back to the naps. It's a nap around income as I experience that financial freedom is important for me although I am very relaxed about it. I have a very strong believe in me that everything will gonna be alright. I am a bit experiencing with the nap that I use now and I am in the fourth night of it. I was also interested in book "conscious language the logos of now" I am trying to order it but with out success at the moment.
