Be Aware
The # 1 Proven Secret to SMART Success is:
BE AWARE
Be aware of your creative power, as you are a creative being.
Be aware of your choices, because they do affect your results.
Be aware of your conscious thoughts, as they are just like seeds that you
plant in the ground. They are the starting point to all things.
Be aware of opportunities, because they are everywhere.
Be aware of your beliefs, because they will determine what you are willing
to look at and what you will refuse to look at.
I first became aware 25 years ago when I was in prison. No, I wasn’t in a
physical prison, but I WAS in a psychological prison. What’s worse, I had
put myself there and didn’t even know it.
You see, 25 years ago I attended my first motivational seminar, delivered by
a wise and inspiring speaker by the name of Bob Proctor. On that Monday
night, as I sat in the front row of the audience, I was struck by one precise
message. This one remark changed my life forever.
Bob Proctor said: “You cannot escape from a prison, unless you know you
are in one.”
This was the point that the light went on. You know what I mean…the light
bulb went on above my head and my eyes opened wide, just like in the
cartoons. But that was no cartoon.
