HAVE
YOU WRITTEN DOWN YOUR QUESTION TO YOURSELF?
If
not, please, please, please go back and do so. We
cannot emphasise just how important this is! Please
trust us and do it now.
So if you have arrived here, well done! Hopefully
you've now got a question written down on a piece
of paper relating to the level of your current level
of happiness.
Most
people will write something like:
“Why
am I unhappy?”
or
“Why
do I feel so lousy?”
or
“Why
does nothing go my way?”
or
“Why
can't I be rich?”
or
“Why
am I depressed?”
If you've written something along those lines then
Congratulations! – you are
amongst the overwhelming majority of people on this
planet of ours who think in exactly the same way.
This is absolutely great news because it means that
what you are about to read IS going
to change your life beyond anything you could have
ever dreamt of!
Just
change the questions you ask yourself.
That
is the secret. Surely there must be more to it than
that? We'll explain more in a second.. Read on.
Everything
we do, every day, every minute of every day, we constantly
ask ourselves questions like the ones above. The trouble
is, with most people, that the questions we ask ourselves
lead us to make an assumption about the answer because
of how they are worded. And the assumption we make
in the question ensure that the only possible outcome
of the answer is a negative one. Look again at what
we are really asking ourselves?
“Why
am I unhappy?”
Our
subconscious mind will automatically answer on the
terms that the question was asked with answers like:
“Because
terrible things happen to me all the time”
or
“Because
nothing seems to work for me”
or
“Because
I can't seem to snap out of this bad mood”
...
etc.. etc..
We have basically asked ourselves to come up with
some reasons that can make us unhappy. That's not
a solution to a problem. It is a reaffirmation of
the problem which, if anything, will help make the
problem worse instead of solving it!
You
see what we mean? If you ask a question with a negative
slant on it, it is only natural for the answer to
that question to come back with a negative slant also.
It
presupposes that negative things are happening and
doesn't actually provide a solution to whatever the
problem is. Instead it gives you reasons that only
reinforce your negative question.
Now,
what happens if we actually pause to think about what
we are actually asking ourselves and learn to ask
the question in a slightly different way? Rather than
ask “Why do I always ask myself negative questions?”
Wouldn't it be better to put a positive slant on the
question? Just like that!
Instead
of giving a question that will automatically lead
to a negative assumption let's try making the question
itself more positive and see what happens...
So
“Why am I unhappy?”
could become
“What can I do to become happier?”
Immediately,
when you ask a question like that, your subconscious
goes searching for a solution for that specific problem.
It's what your brain does better and faster than any
supercomputer. In the first few seconds of asking
yourself a question, your subconscious will process
literally millions of different scenarios and will
offer you the most promising solutions. The key is
that it will give you an answer that relates to the
question posed. Ask it a negative question and you'll
get a negatively biased answer. Ask it a positively
framed question and you will get a positive answer.
A positive answer that will actually help you achieve
whatever it is you want.
Let's
try it with some of the other questions...
“Why
do I feel so lousy?”
becomes
“How can I feel better?”
or
“Why
does nothing go my way?”
becomes
“What are other people who get their way doing
that I can do too?”
or
“Why
can't I be rich?”
becomes
“How can I have more money?”
or
“Why
am I depressed?”
becomes
“What can I do to give myself a boost and feel
great about myself?”
Give
it a try now. Try writing your original question again
in a more positive light. And the brilliant thing
is there is never just one way of writing each question.
You can constantly come up with new ways of asking
questions that will come up with even more positive
answers.
Give
your brain a chance! Give it the right questions and
it WILL give you the right answers.
There
is no real difference between you and the happiest,
wealthiest, most successful people on the planet.
They do react differently to whatever it is that presents
itself to themselves though. They have only learned
to ask themselves different questions and allow themselves
the opportunity to act on the answers they are given.
A
good way of looking at it is to put yourself in these
people's heads. Imagine if, for example, you stepped
into, say, the billionaire entrepreneur Richard Branson's
head with your current situation. How would he react?
What questions would someone like that start asking
themselves? You can guarantee it would be the opposite
of what unhappy, unsuccessful, negative thinking people
ask. That's the real reason why these people have
got where they are in life!
Now
you should have an understanding of how this technique
works (and it does work) you can apply it to everything
you do from this moment onwards. If you do this, and
keep doing this, it will soon become habit. And once
it becomes habit you will be completely amazed by
the results you will soon start to see.
However
easy this sounds, it will only actually work
if you start doing it for yourself.
Other
useful, but incredibly easy things that you can do
everyday which will gradually transform yourself into
a happier more contented and relaxed person are:
Spend
a little time each day appreciating what is actually
good in your life. Make this a habit you keep for
good.
Have
a laugh. Read a funny book. Watch a funny film or
listen to a comedy programme on the radio. Meet up
with a friend and just have fun. Laughing has been
scientifically proven to increase the blood flow around
the body. It turns out that the old saying “Laughter
is the best medicine” actually turns out to
be pretty accurate!
Do
something for someone else every day. Even if it is
to a complete stranger, just do something nice. It
doesn't even have to cost anything. It might be as
simple as holding a door open for someone or even
just smiling at them in the street. You will soon
be doing this regularly when you experience the positive
reaction you get.
As
well as doing something for other people, it is very
important to let yourself know how much you think
of yourself – so do something nice for yourself
every single day! Go somewhere nice or get yourself
a present. Anything you like. Treat yourself –
you surely deserve it!We haven't just made this stuff
up. It has been shown in numerous studies to be effective.
What have you got to lose? Surely it is worthwhile
giving the suggestions described here a really good
try. You absolutely, without question, owe it to yourself
to succeed with this. So get ready to get yourself
into action straight away. Start making your plan
of exactly what it is you are going to do when you've
finished reading this.Make the change right now. Re-read
this chapter from start to end and then read it again.
It is, without doubt, the most important single piece
of information in this guide. It may well be the single-most
important piece of information you ever read in your
life - The possibilities that you can achieve by applying
it to yourself and those around you are well and truly
astounding.

FINAL
WORDS
Let's apply what we are starting to learn to even
the chapter heading above. The heading presupposes
that these are the “Final Words” and that's
it, end of story, it all stops here.
Let's
scrub that heading and replace it with (in big bold
letters, maybe with a fanfare playing in the background):
“YOUR NEW START!”
That's better!
It
is all in your hands now - just like when Willy Wonka
gave Charlie the keys to the Chocolate Factory!! Well,
that is pretty much everything covered in the guide
itself.It's up to you. You have everything you require
right now. It just depends on you taking the next
step. Take that step today.
