Setting A Goal And Achieving It

Back in 1990 my husband and I were promoters of Bob Proctor's "Born Rich" seminars in Queensland, Australia.
You may or may not know that Bob is a contributor to the bestselling book and video "The Secret".
During our one on one training with Bob and his wife Linda in Toronto, Canada, he gave us one very valuable piece of advice which we still do to this day.
He said to write down a goal, write it in the present tense (this is to trick your subconscious mind into believing that you have already achieved it), then visualise your goal as though it has happened and feel yourself in possession of it. Remember to read it every day. The concept is that if you truly believe something then you will attract it into your life.
This actually happened when my husband and I wanted to buy a house. We had no money for a deposit but I had a goal of owning my own home, so I put pictures up of houses and house plans and then put it out into the universe.
Within a few months I met a Developer who showed me how I could have my house in a short space of time.
Within a 12 month period we built our dream home and paid for our eldest daughter's wedding! It just didn't fall into our laps, we had to work hard to achieve everything we set out to do, but we attracted the right people into our lives.
To this day we tell everyone we meet this story so that they know that goals can be set and achieved without too much effort!
