6 Steps for Greater Magnetic Power

By Anthony Norvell
Author of: The Million Dollar Secret That Lies Hidden Within Your Mind


Take these Six Steps for Greater Magnetic Power

1. Picture clearly the things that you want to magnetize and attract.

Sit quietly in your room and run these pictures through your mind like film through a movie projector. Review these pictures daily, as often as possible, especially at night just before going to sleep. See them clearly; do not keep changing them, but have the pictures the same each time. Have as many things as you want to magnetize, taking them up one at a time, and giving about ten minutes to picturing each thought.

2. Write down the things you wish to magnetize and attract.

Write them clearly and briefly, as you have learned in another part of this book. This serves to imprint them upon your subconscious mind more forcibly.

3. Indulge in day-dreaming when possible to do so.

The moments you spend waiting for a car or bus, the time you take out for coffee or a cigarette at your work-use these precious moments to day-dream. In these day-dreams see yourself in the work you want to do; living in your dream house; married to the mate who fits your needs; having money to do things you wish; ideas and inventions that could make you a fortune.

4. Do not tell anyone of the secret power you are using.

They will tend to laugh at you, discourage you, and they may short-circuit your magnetic attraction with their negative ideas. Many a genius has never won recognition because he shared his dreams and secrets with friends of members of his family. The acorn grows in the secret, hidden womb of earth, safe from all interference, and becomes an oak tree because of this secrecy. What if someone tore it up by the roots every few days to see if it was growing? It would die. So too, your dreams die if they are shattered by others.

5. Have faith in the invisible intelligence, to produce the things you are trying to magnetize.

The secret power that can make a baby in nine months‘ time, knows how to release the energy to bring your idea or dream to fruition. But you must have faith in this invisible power that creates all life. The chicken in the egg is evidence of this great miracle-working intelligence. From that invisible cell it produces the feathers, beak, heart, lungs, and eyes of that chick. Trust this Intelligence.

6. Share your good with the world.

There is magnetism in giving to others. The soil gives of its substance to the plant and enriches the world; the sun gives of its warmth and the world lives in its golden glow. All great givers have been able to attract more of this world‘s goods than the misers, for misers magnetize money but lose their lives by not sharing it with others. A shabby old woman was found dying on the streets of New York in midwinter. When a search was made of her shabby apartment a trunk was found that had five hundred thousand dollars in cash hidden in it. And yet, she died of starvation! Activate this law of magnetism through giving: Give it and you will receive even more, for whatever you give, will come back to you multiplied.
How to Be Your Own Best Motivator

By Donna Deeprose

Maybe you’re one of the lucky ones and your boss provides you with plenty of motivation and encouragement. But, in truth, motivation is internal. Others can change your external situation, but only you can draw out the motivation from within yourself and put it to work to energize yourself on the job.

Here are simple ways you can motivate yourself:

  • Reward yourself when you’ve done what you know is a good job, perhaps by going out to a special dinner. Even better, take along a friend who can reinforce your sense of accomplishment.
  • When you need a reminder of how important your work is, sit down and make a list of all the people who depend upon you and all the worthwhile outcomes to which you have contributed.
  • When you feel your job is going nowhere, volunteer for a project that takes you out of the routine. Or take a course in something entirely new.
  • If the organization you work for seems to be adrift, craft your own vision and seek out tasks that are relevant to it.
  • If you find yourself in a negative environment, seek out the company of noncynics. Every organization has some, and you'll be amazed at how much better you will feel in their presence.

How to motivate yourself when faced with a boring project:

  • Enlist a colleague to help, not because misery loves company, but because you can bounce ideas off each other and make the work more enjoyable.
  • Concentrate on being creative. You don't have to do things in the same old dull manner. Brainstorm some more interesting approaches.

How to motivate yourself when faced with an "impossible" project:

  • Enlist the help of an expert. Somebody, somewhere has probably done it before and is willing to share their expertise.
  • Confer with people who tackled similar tasks without success. They can be helpful by telling you the traps to avoid.
  • Ask yourself: "What can I learn by attempting this, even if the outcome isn't a huge success?"
  • Talk to the people who came up with the assignment. Why do they think this will work? What’s their bottom line? If they were to do it themselves, where would they start?

How to motivate yourself when faced with a thankless project:

  • Put in writing all that goes into this project or task. If you haven't started it yet, draw up a plan of action with anticipated due dates.
  • Keep a log and present it to your boss or the project manager to keep him or her informed.
  • Negotiate. Ask for what you want in return: compensation time perhaps, if the project eats into your personal time or the time you need for your other work. At the very least, ask for recognition for your efforts—a letter to your boss’s boss perhaps, copied to you of course, or acknowledgement in front of your peers.
  • Reward yourself. Establish regular achievement milestones throughout the project and reward yourself when you reach each one. Do it publicly, if appropriate. Bring in a cake and share it, for example.
  • Post a big calendar on your wall and mark off your progress in big symbols that no one who walks by can miss. When people ask you what it’s about, tell them. If they don't ask, find a way to tell them anyway.

Finally, and most important, if you’re working on a project with others, make sure they don't work thanklessly. Give them plenty of recognition. Have celebrations. Give fun prizes. Recognize and reward them until they are really charged up and you catch some of their fever.
