This past week has brought so much excitement as I have been awarded distribution rights for The Opus DVD.
This came to me unexpectedly, and I knew as soon as the offer was made that it was a window of opportunity that I was to grab hold of.
The principles we have been taught in creating the life we love include opening our mind to dream, and see ourselves being, doing and having the life we desire. We must allow ourselves to dream big and decide what it is that we want. We are not to worry about the 'how' as it will present itself - whether in part, by smaller things such as a particular book, a seminar, meeting a certain person ...
The how will just 'arrive' as long as you believe, and take certain actions along the way.
To my absolute amazement - my 'how' has arrived in the form of a DVD. The Opus DVD.

Each time I view the movie, I am more inspired and motivated to pursue my goals and live my life's passion.
It's not about just putting your intention out into the universe and sitting back on the couch waiting for the Law of Attraction to drop your dream life into your lap. This is where The Opus gives us the pieces that were missing in The Secret. For each and every one of us to be successful and achieve the things in life that we desire, there are other strategies required, but these steps are not difficult.
You will discover for yourself how the great teachers in this movie such as Jack Canfield, Mark Victor Hansen, Dr John Demartini, Dr Joe Vitale, Marci Shimoff, Bob Doyle and others take you through each step of the journey - from Vision ... To Plan ... To Performance.
And you WILL open your mind to what is possible for you, and you WILL be motivated to follow your dreams and you WILL be inspired to take action.
If I can impress one thing upon you today - that is to make sure you watch The Opus.

The following tip is the beginning to installing the habit of lifelong learning:
Always have a Book
It doesn't matter how long it takes you to read a book - whether a week or a year. Always strive to have a book that you are reading. Take it with you so you can read it when you have a few minutes to spare. Just by shaving off a few minutes in-between appointments or activities in you day you will get to the end of your book. You will be amazed at how many books you will get through in a year!

This week's article comes from another of my favourite mentors, Jack Canfield, who as an internationally recognized leader in personal development and peak performance strategies, Jack has spent the last 30 years teaching millions of people how to up-level everything they do. His newest book, The Success Principles: How to Get From Where You Are to Where You Want to Be contains dozens of the most powerful secrets to success used by top achievers from all walks of life.
Over a course of these newsletters, we will cover The Success Principles for you to incorporate in your world, and create the success you deserve.
Decide What You Want
In order to get what you want, you must first decide what you want. Most people really foul up at this crucial first step because they simply can’t see how it’s possible to get what they want — so they don’t even let themselves want it.
Don’t sabotage yourself that way!
What scientists now know about how the brain works is that you must first decide WHAT you want, before your brain can figure out HOW to get it. Once you lock-in your desires, your mind and the universe can step in.
Are you ready to get started?
Be Willing to Dream BIG Dreams
As soon as you commit to a big dream and really go after it, your subconscious creative mind will come up with big ideas to make it happen. You’ll start attracting the people, resources, and opportunities you need into your life to make your dream come true. Big dreams not only inspire you, they compel others to want to play big, too.
Set Goals That Will Stretch You
Another value in giving yourself permission to go after the big dreams is that big dreams require you to grow in order to achieve them. In fact, in the long run, that is the greatest benefit you will receive from pursuing your dreams — not so much the outer trappings of fulfilling the dream (an expensive car, impressive house, loads of money and philanthropic opportunities), but who you become in the process.
As I’ve seen many times over, the outer symbols of success can all be easily lost. Houses burn down, companies go bankrupt, relationships end, cars get old, bodies age and fame wanes, but who you are, what you have learned, and the new skills you have developed never go away. These are the true prizes of success. Motivational philosopher, Jim Rohn advises that “You should set a goal big enough that in the process of achieving it, you become someone worth becoming.”
Service to Others
Something else you’ll discover is that when your dreams include service to others — accomplishing something that contributes to others — it also accelerates the accomplishment of that goal. People want to be part of something that contributes and makes a difference.
Turn Your Dreams into Goals and Objectives
Once you are clear about what you want, you must turn each item into a measurable objective. By measurable, I mean measurable in space and time — how much and by when. For instance, if you were to tell me that you wanted more money, I might pull out a dollar and give it to you, but you would probably protest, saying “No, I meant a lot more money — like $20,000!” Well, how am I supposed to know unless you tell me? Similarly, your boss, your friends, your spouse, your brain — God, the Universe — can’t figure out what you want unless you tell them specifically what it is. What do you want — exactly — and when do you want it by?
Write Your Goals Down
Write your goals down in detail, and read your list of goals every day. This will keep your subconscious mind focused on what you want. For an even more powerful approach, close your eyes and focus on each goal and ask yourself, "What is one thing I could do today to move toward the achievement of this goal?" Write down your answers and take those actions.
I recommend writing down a minimum of 3 goals in each of the following 7 areas:
1. Financial Goals
2. Career/Business Goals
3. Free Time/Family Time
4. Health/Appearance Goals
5. Relationship Goals
6. Personal Growth
7. Making a Difference
To help your reticular activating system begin finding YOUR wants in unexpected places, take time now to decide what you want and start writing!
