Happy 2009 -- What Will We Attract?

noreply@blogger.com (James Clayton Napier) — Fri, 02 Jan 2009 01:17:00 +0000

Wishing you and yours happiness, health, and abundance.

So...what are some ways to keep a "positive attraction mindset" amid this atmosphere of fear?

First and foremost, I suggest we work to cultivate the attitude of GRATITUDE....however we can...whenever we can...whereever we are...and with everyone we contact.

A Favorite Quote

noreply@blogger.com (James Clayton Napier) — Wed, 25 Jun 2008 08:13:00 +0000

"I cannot believe that the inscrutable universe turns on an axis of suffering; surely the beauty of the world must somewhere rest on pure joy." -- Poet Louise Bogan

Count Your Blessings or Have Someone Do it for You

noreply@blogger.com (James Clayton Napier) — Sun, 25 May 2008 18:06:00 +0000

I wrote that title "tongue in cheek" after running across a quote from a favorite Hollywood actress Teri Garr, who joked in her book Speedbumps (in which she recalls her Hollywood film and life experiences), "I really do count my blessings. At least I used to; now I get so tired, I have a woman come in once a week and count them for me."

Actually, the point Teri goes on to make is that she greatly improved her life when she found ways to slow down each day and experience simple aspects of life more consciously. Read a little Eckhardt Tolle or most any consciousness writer about being present and grateful.

A wonderful little exercise is to simply stop for 10 minutes and make a list (mental or on paper) of everything you can think of for which you are grateful. Count your blessings and then watch the change in your experience of the rest of your day.

Gratitude Tunes Your Core Vibration

noreply@blogger.com (James Clayton Napier) — Thu, 17 Jan 2008 06:07:00 +0000

The vibration of Gratitude cannot be overstated. Gratitude is a state of being in which you drop your resistance to experiencing your life in the ways you always truly wanted. Gratitude creates timelessness and peace in your heart. For your enjoyment, simply look at the photo above, the beautiful form that is the energy of Gratitude made manifest and communicated by water itself.

Imagine that every part within yourself also aligns in such a breathtakingly beautiful way when you whole-heartedly experience Gratitude.

THINK AND GROW RICH - WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF YOU HAD A MILLION DOLLARS?

noreply@blogger.com (James Clayton Napier) — Tue, 08 Jan 2008 05:56:00 +0000

Napoleon Hill wrote the success classic THINK AND GROW RICH — a book that has since publication sold millions of copies It is one of the most popular self-help books on SUCCESS ever written.

This was in the 1930's. But before THINK AND GROW RICH, Napoleon HIll published, in 1928, a nearly 1200 page book called THE LAW OF SUCCESS "Teaching for the First Time in the History of the World, the True Philosophy upon which all Personal Success is Built," to quote Hill and published by The Ralston University Press in Meriden, Connecticut.

You can read this phenomenal, life-transforming 16 lesson course online — at no cost — by going to the following link:

LAWS OF SUCCESS - 16 LESSON COURSE

A PERSONAL STATEMENT BY THE AUTHOR (NAPOLEON HILL):

Some thirty years ago a young clergyman by the name of Gunsaulus announced in the newspapers of Chicago that he would preach a sermon the following Sunday morning entitled:

"WHAT I WOULD DO IF I HAD A MILLION DOLLARS!"

The announcement caught the eye of Philip D. Armour, the wealthy packing-house king, who decided to hear the sermon. In his sermon Dr. Gunsaulus pictured a great school of technology where young men and young women could be taught how to succeed in life by developing the ability to THINK in practical rather than in theoretical terms; where they would be taught to "learn by doing."

"If I had a million dollars," said the young preacher, "I would start such a school." After the sermon was over Mr. Armour walked down the aisle to the pulpit, introduced himself, and said, "Young man, I believe you could do all you said you could, and if you will come down to my office tomorrow morning I will give you the million dollars you need."

There is always plenty of capital for those who can create practical plans for using it. That was the beginning of the Armour Institute of Technology, one of the very practical schools of the country. The school was born in the imagination of a young man who never would have been heard of outside of the community in which he preached had it not been for the imagination, plus the capital, of Philip D. Armour.

Money and Tuning Your Core Vibration

noreply@blogger.com (James Clayton Napier) — Sun, 30 Dec 2007 05:12:00 +0000

Excerpt from my Idea Marketers article -- Author David Hawkins indicates that only about fifteen percent of the world's population is above the critical consciousness level (which can be translated into Core Vibration) which supports, rather than diminishes, life and life energy.

"Thoughts are living breathing energies. They have a life of their own and an electromagnetic charge. At first birth they are singular in nature, yet very magnetic. They seek like vibrations as they travel encircling you throughout the day," -- Gillian MacBeth-Louthan

The very good news is that you can take charge of the instrument of your life and communicate effectively with the "inner strings." Your conscious mind and the powerful sub-conscious energies, pulling together, can create miracles.

Success -- Is There a Science of Success?

noreply@blogger.com (James Clayton Napier) — Wed, 19 Dec 2007 20:53:00 +0000

Is there a Science of Success? According to Julia Seton Sears, M.D., definite laws of success exist. Julia Seton Sears' book The Science of Success is a very rare book originally published in 1914. Her husband, F.W. Sears published his own book "How to Attract Success" and the two compliment each other.

So, What Is Success?

Dr. Sears stated, "Success is the power in the individual to get the thing he or she wants, when they want it, in the way the want it, to keep it as long as they want it and when they have included it, let go of it, and pass on to the fulfillment of a new desire." This definition of Success is about as inclusive as any I've ever read.

"We see clearly that everyone in the world is doing just the thing they should do and that when they have gotten enough of the old thing, and include all its laws in their consciousness," Sears writes, "they will quit and naturally pass on into the inclusion of something else." Success is not "a mysterious thing that waits around and then rushes unannounced into a life," Sears continues.

"The reason so many are seeking success, fame, money, love and recognition and not finding it, is because they have never learned the first necessary lesson of knowing themselves. First, they do not know what they want to do, and secondly, they do not know how to do what they want to do." The first true law for success, Sears indicates, is, "know what part of the mighty stream of the universe you belong, and then strike boldly out in that current of life."

The creative person, she adds, "does not think in dollars;" they "think in millions." The failure world, Sears points out, "is heaped high with those who didn't know." In other words most people don't have a CLUE as to what they want to do with their lives beyond safety and self-preservation needs. I recommend this rare book to you because "The individual who hopes for success must become that success in their own mind, at once," and Sears' book shows her readers how to exactly do just that. Check out Amazon, Alibris, or Bookfinder and check out this rare book on the science of success.

P.G. WODEHOUSE FREE ONLINE BOOK -- UNEASY MONEY

noreply@blogger.com (James Clayton Napier) — Sat, 15 Dec 2007 17:54:00 +0000

This blog — Dollars Love Me — takes a light-hearted look at The Law of Attraction. So far, I've posted about 51 articles. Scroll down and look at all the titles while you're here.

Also, if you have "had it up to here" with all this talk about The Law of Attraction, you need laughter. The person I suggest to you as the funniest writer who ever lived was — P.G. Wodehouse. During his more than 90 years of life, P.G. Wodehouse wrote over 90 novels and I recommend you Law of Attraction buffs take a break and read his uproariously funny novel UNEASY MONEY (greed and chaos take over when a man leaves a will worth five million dollars).

Click to Read: UNEASY MONEY

When you've finished UNEASY MONEY check out Wodehouse's Bertie Wooster & his manservant Jeeves books, his novels about Lord Emsworth and life at Blandings Castle, and Psmith in the City.

Laughter is, after all, reputed to be the best medicine. If you're suffering these days from "irony deficiency anemia," Wodehouse is your tonic.

Be well and enjoy,

James

SUCCESS: KNOW YOUR RULING STAR

noreply@blogger.com (James Clayton Napier) — Fri, 07 Dec 2007 03:31:00 +0000

Excerpt from my article --"Know your Ruling Star," the Spanish priest Gracian wrote in The Art of Worldly Wisdom. "One man is better received by one nation than another, or is one welcome by one city than another. He finds more luck in one office or position than in another, and all though his qualifications are equal or even identical."

We are better received in certain locations or areas than in others, welcomed when we show up, and we most certainly do find more luck in one place than another.

"But where, where, where is THAT PLACE?" I wondered.

Speak Up and Ask for what You Want

noreply@blogger.com (James Clayton Napier) — Fri, 07 Dec 2007 02:57:00 +0000

Excerpt from my article -- Asking for what you want isn't about being overbearing, but aren't the little things of daily life as well as careers dependent on simple, direct requests? "We are perfectly justified in assuming that a fair share of all that is good of big and little things belongs to us for the asking," Lurton observes. He claims we fail to collect because we don't adopt the positive attitude, we're careless or shy and afraid of a little rebuff." That's quite a price to pay for never speaking up or shuddering at the thought of hearing "No" as an answer. Who knows? The pay raise, promotion, great end-of-the-month car deal when the dealership is trying to meet a quota, or marriage to the love of your life may never happen - unless you ask.

The Infinite Passion of Life

noreply@blogger.com (James Clayton Napier) — Thu, 06 Dec 2007 05:21:00 +0000

A single improvement is often enough to produce far-reaching consequences in one's fortune. – Max Gunther, The Luck Factor

For most of us the prospect of a invigorating beginning in a new Location, a fresh start in life — re-energizes us. It brings about a feeling of what I call that let-out-of-school feeling.

"Why is this let-out-of-school feeling so important to our emotional health and well-being?" you may be wondering (I hope you are!).

Because the ability to notice and appreciate the beauty that surrounds us--no matter our location or vocation in life--is vital.

A change of scenery or pleasant, much-anticipated diversion from our usual pace is often just the ticket to make that occur.

Appreciation allows life to pour more of itself [life energy] into us.

"The moment we fully appreciate beauty we become more than what we were (it lightens our greed)," Roberto Assagioli wrote in his book Psychosynthesis. "We live a moment of pure psychological health

"Full consciousness brings joy," author Wayne Amos wrote many years ago. "One of the mysteries is that the universe contains innate joy. Once you open your senses to anything--a sunset, a waterfall, a stone, a blade of grass--the joy comes."

Ready For Sightseeing?

"We are departing for the skies. Who has a mind for sightseeing?" the poet Rumi asked.

The skies here are not the "friendly skies" a certain airline has encouraged us to fly, but the skies of imagination.

A bit of wispy daydreaming wedded to commitment on our part and, before you know it, you're on your way--to your new home; a new location, new city, new job, new friends, perhaps even to your Paradise vacation spot or favorite retirement destination.

Before selling everything you own or packing it into storage and heading out to the open road and new adventures, however, I suggest you ask yourself (as I have), "What do I want for myself in this new moment?" (Janet Rainwater).

Life, I've found, does have a pesky way of asking you WHAT YOU TRULY WANT AND DESIRE and it wants YOUR reply. My own experiences have shown me that life wants: a crystal-clear answer from you--"Yes, this is it! This is what I want to be, do, and how I desire to enjoy my remaining time here."

If your answer is, "I'm not sure," then I suggest you close your eyes and daydream.

First, try envisioning what an ideal day would be like for you. Write down, and be very specific, about what you envision.

When you do this, you are departing for the skies within.

Faith and Confidence in Your Future

All of us care about financial security. Money allows us to say "Yes" to ourselves and to new experiences in life. It is a bit costly to sample many of life's delights (here and abroad), isn't it?

Money, however, has no idea what we think OF or ABOUT it. Money is neutral in that sense. So, wherever you move--or even if you stay in your present location--your feelings about money (your scarcity consciousness/abundance consciousness quotient) will determine, even in Paradise, whether or not you feel financially secure.

Dr. John Diamond's (Your Body Doesn't Lie) wonderful affirmation, "I have faith and confidence in my future. I am secure," is worth taking along with you wherever you go.

Security: A Place Within

I'd like to share with you my personal favorite definition of security:

"Security is not a place of ideological stability but a direction inspired by curiosity."

How's your direction-inspired-by-curiosity doing these days?

Well, I hope!

Those of you who are about to retire, or have already, remember as you try to figure out whether to sell your home and buy an RV, take a cruise around the world, or settle into a retirement community, "Plan to keep busy."

"The practice of idleness is not as easy as it sounds," Alan DeVoe reminds us.

Ask those who have tried idleness and found it lacking in meaning and a source, eventually, of much dissatisfaction and unhappiness.

Charles Schultz, the creator of the Peanuts comic strip, observed that "Life is like a ten-speed bike. Most of us have gears we never use."

To those of you a few years away from that "idle" life you imagine will be so wonderful--perhaps several or more moves are yet in your future--you have a big question to answer:

"In what should I creatively invest the remaining capital of my days?
What projects? What goals? What do I really CARE about?"
I've known people in the 80's--and one woman in her 90's--who are still asking themselves similar questions.

One thing is certain. To quote the philosopher Lao Tse, "If you do not change direction [assuming you are dissatisfied at present], you may end up where you are heading."

What Dreams May Be

The Italian film-maker Fellini wrote, "There is no end. There is no beginning. There is only the infinite passion of life."

How strong is your commitment to what you say, in your heart of hearts, you really want? Is there anything you can start doing TODAY to power up your dream?

Are you willing to make the initial investment of buying back the time you are giving to television every night, the office talk that goes nowhere, shopping, or "having' a few every night before heading home," into achieving at least one thing in your heart of hearts you know you desire?

Only you know. No one else does. The results we see in a few years, however, will let everyone you know how you decided.

"Your health is bound to be affected if, day after day, you say the opposite of what you feel, if you grovel before what you dislike, and rejoice at what brings you nothing but misfortune," Boris Pasternak wrote. "Our nervous system isn't just a fiction."

"Man's main task in life," Eric Fromm wrote, "is to give birth to himself. This is possible only when our interest in ourselves spills over into caring about our fellow men and women. Usually getting there requires a bit of living before that spillover occurs (except, perhaps, in those children who seem to be born with "old" and "wise" souls).

They are the exceptions.

We cannot live only for ourselves," Herman Melville (author of Moby Dick) wrote. "A thousand fibers connect us with our fellow-men; and along those fibers as sympathetic threads, our actions run as causes and they come back to us as effects."

Try not to let everyday life get you down. If you do, down scores a triumphant victory over life, doesn't it?

"The lucky renew their energy through the activity in which they're engaged." –-Max Gunther

"There is no end," Fellini reminds us. "There is no beginning. There is only the infinite passion of life."

Money & The Art of Bliss --

noreply@blogger.com (James Clayton Napier) — Thu, 06 Dec 2007 05:11:00 +0000

"The lucky renew their energy through the activity in which they're engaged." – Max Gunther

How strong is your commitment to what you say, in your heart of hearts, you really want? Is there anything you can start doing today to power up your dream?

18th and 19th Century German poet, scientist, and author of Faust, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe said, "Until one is committed, there is hesitation, the chance to draw back, always making for ineffectiveness. Concerning all acts of initiative, there is one elemental truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred."

Goethe assured his readers that with commitment, "A whole stream of events issues from the decision, working in our favor; all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance that no man could have dreamed would come his way. Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it."

Isn't it possible that the day you ask for a mountain (a problem) to be moved from your life…and you wouldn't be surprised if it did move…is the day it will move?

The great Joseph Campbell, shortly before his death, told a nationwide audience that watched his PBS series of conversations with Bill Moyers to, "follow your bliss."

By bliss, Campbell meant your highest enthusiasm. "I have found that you have only to take one step toward the gods and they will take ten steps toward you," he wrote.

What happens when you want to follow your bliss but are unable to give up your present job? You worry so much about money.

"Life is like a ten-speed bike. Most of us have gears we never use." — Charles Schultz

You can begin by reclaiming the hours you do own, the ones which may have been filled with clutter, distractions, and unnecessary obligations.

"What happens then?" you ask. "Suppose I grant myself the possibility that I might find fifteen or thirty extra minutes a day if I searched for them?"

Getting started toward "your bliss" is when the magic begins. The smallest progress opens springs of inner vitality. You're re-energized as if every little cell in your body tingles with excitement (they know you've done something right)!

Sidney Friedman in his book Your Mind Knows More Than You Do listed what he called 17 common, sensible, simple, yet for some reason, often unobserved means to gratification.
The first four are:
*Pursue the work you love to do.
*Seek the people you love to be with.
*Find the place you love to live.
*Appreciate each of these discoveries."

My own experiences have taught me that what truly matters finding your place in life, being engaged work that energizes you and you instinctively feel and intuitively know you are here to do; work done in a spirit of service and for which you are well-paid and from a spirit of service, and always the result of an infinite passion for life.

Let's go back to the German poet and scientist Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, who reminded us, "Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it."

Welcome from James

noreply@blogger.com (James Clayton Napier) — Sat, 01 Dec 2007 09:05:00 +0000

Welcome to my blog, subtitled "a light-hearted look into the Law of Attraction" -- light-hearted because many of the articles and books on the Law of Attraction are serious and lacking in humor. Frankly, reading them can be depressing rather than inspirational -- not good for the psyche.

A super-serious psyche that isn't entertained by your life is likely to busy itself giving you just the opposite of what you're seeking. We don't want that, do we?

Even if we are feeling a bit desperate about our life situation, it's not a good idea to feed that feeling of desperation into your suggestible mind. Your mind takes every premise you send and acts on it as though that premise were TRUE. To quote a friend, "The desperate life is not worth examining."

The American novelist William Allen White read Ralph Waldo Emerson's essay on "Self-Reliance" when he was a teenager. Years later White would say, in his autobiography, "As I read that essay my spirit expanded as though I had heard the trumpet call of life. I was thrilled and stirred...I doubt if I have ever been moved so deeply by anything else I have read."

Take a look at Emerson's "Self-Reliance" when you get a chance. See if it thrills and stirs you as it did William Allen White when he was seventeen.

Your thoughts are not just whispey things that appear, hang around for a few seconds, and disappear. Your thoughts are Forces. I'd like to suggest you practice the power of speaking into existence the things you want. I suggest you avoid stirring up the energies that work to defeat your deepest desires and dreams by, frankly, not bringing up those subjects.

Here are three places to find great ideas, ideas that will excite and restore your vital reserves.

First, check out Project Gutenberg. You'll be astounded by the thousands of free books you can download, print, and read. All the books in that database are out of copyright. You're sure to find something of interest if you take an hour or two to browse the Project Gutenberg offerings.

Secondly, go to books.Google.com Google has scanned many classic books from libraries across America, books you will find no where else. Here are a few I've read recently and recommend you give a look:

Mind Power: The Secret of Mental Magic by William Walker Atkinson (1912). This book, by the author of over a hundred titles during his lifetime, was considered by Atkinson to be his masterpiece — and it is a masterpiece!

Mental Therapeutics or Just How to Heal Oneself and Others by Theron Q. Dumont (1917).

The Law of Mentation by A. Victor Segno (1902). Look up Segno on the net. He was quite a character among the early mentalists.

Health Through Will Power by James J. Walsh, M.D., (1919).

If you go to books.google.com and find a book you want to read, you may want to take notes on it if it deals with a self-help topic. I have many notebooks filled with jottings from late night voyages into the world of Google scanned books.

Finally, check out Internet Archive. They also have an amazing collection of books from libraries throughout the world. Tonight, for examine, I printed chapters from two remarkable books: The Power of Positive Living by Douglas Lurton (1950) and The Power of Mental Demand and Other Essays by Herbert Edward Law (1913).

Especially read Lurton's first chapter "Ask For It." I'll be writing and posting an article shortly from my reading of Lurton's book. "Many of the richest rewards of life, material as well as spiritual, are never acquired -- simply because they aren't asked for," Lurton writes.

I'm always glad to receive your feedback on the articles here at dollarsloveme.blogspot.com; so feel welcome to write me at writercard@gmail.com for your comments and suggestions. I leave you now with the wonderful words of Florence Scovel-Shinn from her 1920's classic The Game of Life and How to Play It: "We should all be bringing some seemingly impossible things to pass."
Let's do it!
All the best, James

Why Some People Almost Always End Up With What They Want And You Don't

noreply@blogger.com (James Clayton Napier) — Wed, 21 Nov 2007 00:18:00 +0000

Excerpt from Article -- The idea behind auto or self suggestion is this: "Every thought entirely filling the mind becomes true for us and tends to transform itself into action," Coue' told his patients. "When you have something to do, always think 'it is easy,' and make the words 'difficult' and 'impossible' and 'I cannot,' and 'it's stronger than I,' 'I cannot prevent myself from'...disappear from your vocabulary." Replace them, he said, with the phrase "It is easy and I can."

I am convinced that Dr. Coue's voice, physical presence, confidence, and his ability to convey his belief to each of his patients that they would either get well, better, or - in cases where the illness was too far advanced for cure - find relief from racking pain, his personal magnetism and demeanor conveyed suggestions of HOPE to his patients and when their "inner mind" BECAME CONVINCED, amazing turn-arounds occurred in their lives.

Excerpt from my Ezine article -- "The subconscious mind," Bristol claimed, "will not take the trouble to work for those who do not believe in it." For those who believe the Source of Power is MORE than that possessed by what I call the sub-attentive mind, look at Bristol's statement about its connection with a "universal hookup;" in other words, a power source outside itself into which it is plugged and draws on for energy to carry out its assignments.

Wikipedia on The Law of Attraction

noreply@blogger.com (James Clayton Napier) — Sun, 18 Nov 2007 15:19:00 +0000

From Wikipedia : "One of the most important early books on this subject in the English language is As a Man Thinketh by James Allen (1864 - 1912), which was published in 1902. The title derives from the ancient Jewish Book of Proverbs, chapter 23, verse 7: "As a man thinketh in his heart, so he is." Allen took this ambiguous idea of a correspondence between "a man's heart" and his existence to a logical extreme, stating that, "The soul attracts that which it secretly harbors, that which it loves, and also that which it fears. It reaches the height of its cherished aspirations. It falls to the level of its unchastened desires -- and circumstances are the means by which the soul receives its own.^{[4] "}

Excerpt from my article -- DNA information patterns were captured by Russian scientists and the cells reprogrammed (which, I might add, we have the power to do up to a point by altering our self-talk from negative to more optimistic and upbeat). There are many other techniques we may employ to also transmit new information patterns and frequencies to our DNA such as meditation, hypnosis, prayer, Emotional Freedom Techniques, and so many other self growth techniques.

Dr. Deepak Chopra has pointed out that each cell of our body is not only a miniature mind but a "little ear" listening in on everything we say and think - positive or negative.

Financially, many workers feel they are caught in rough surfs and hurled about by them. Do you have a boss like G. Raymond Spurley? Do you have to wonder what your Mr. Spurley is thinking, what his next moves and plans are, and whether you'll have your job when he finishes cleaning house?
