 I’ve been reading The Diamond Cutter by Geshe Michael Roach. It reveals the ancient Tibetan wisdom of Buddha on managing your business and your life. It could be called the Buddha’s money-making secret.

I’m not a Buddhist (I’m more a Transcendentalist), but I’ve gained insight and value from many of Buddha’s teachings. I enjoy practical metaphysics, which is the take-it-to-the-bank school of philosophy, which led me to picking up books such as The Buddha’s Teachings on Prosperity, and of course The Diamond Cutter.

I’m loving it. The latter ties in to two of my own books, The Attractor Factor and Zero Limits, and even my recent audioprogram, The Secret to Attracting Money.

The Diamond Cutter is a practical and reflective book asking you to look at and change the mental imprints in your brain causing you to attract the results you have in your life.  This includes whether you have money or not.

Mental imprints are being planted right now, at the rate of sixty-five per second. They are the “thought forms” in your mind that cause you to perceive the reality you get. They are the “perceptions” you created in earlier situations which are causing you to recreate similar situations.

Think about this:

When you look at a situation, you perceive it through a mental imprint.  More than that, the mental imprint brought it to you.

Going even further, you’re creating new mental imprints right now, as you read this.

If you’re reading this feeling love, a future moment will have you being loved.

If you’re reading this with judgment, a future moment will have you being judged.

And so it goes.

Talk about karma.

In short, you rarely ever experience objective reality. Each moment is not only colored by the past, but brought to you by the past.

As you might imagine, if you don’t observe and change the mental imprints you are creating (sixty-five per second, remember), you’ll just be knocked around by your own mind and you’ll blame it all on luck or fate or other people.

And don’t be so smug to think you’re above all this.

The next time you’re about to complain about lack of sales, or a bad economy or market, or a troublesome employee or customer or client or friend or loved one, stop and consider that a previous mental imprint brought the situation to you and you are right then and there creating a new mental imprint that will cause you to attract more of the same situation.

Re-read that!

It’s not the situations that cause you problems, it’s the mental imprints.

While the author doesn’t use the phrase “Law of Attraction,” I don’t think it’s a stretch to say that’s what his book is about. In short, your mind is creating your results. Change your mind, change your results.

But how do you change your mental imprints, especially when you have a storehouse of them and you are creating sixty-five new ones per second?

A clue is given in Roach’s book:

“Money itself is created by maintaining a generous state of mind.”

I just pulled that line at random out of the book. There’s more to the story and the remedy, but at heart the answer is the same: look at every moment with love, forgiveness and generosity. When you do, you begin to create new mental imprints to begin to bring about new realities.

For example, most people who hear the mainstream news reporting on a failing economy, fall into fear. They then act from fear and close off their actions, which causes them to shut down avenues to their own success. They are coming from a mental imprint that is based on fear. The result is more things to fear. And no money.

A more enlightened approach is to hear the same news but consciously respond with love, forgiveness and generosity. Instead of stopping their actions, they maintain them; instead of stopping their spending or their development, they maintain it; instead of stopping their giving, they maintain it or even increase it. The result is wealth. And lots of money.

The person who comes from a fear mental imprint will create a future of more fear-based mental imprints.

The person who comes from a prosperous mental imprint will create a future of more prosperous-based mental imprints.

Do you see how this works?

Your past thoughts, unconscious or not, brought about your current situation. Unless you change those thoughts as they are happening right now, you can predict your own future: the same as the past.

If you’re ready for a change, ask yourself what you’re feeling about this moment — yes, this one right now.

Personally I think just repeating the Zero Limits‘ mantra (I love you, I’m sorry, Please forgive me, thank you) non-stop can clean up those mental imprints. But I’m no Buddha. Do what you feel inspired to do.  

But do something.

I created The Secret to Attracting Money program to help you clear those programs, beliefs, thought forms and mental imprints that are causing you to have problems with money.

Until you get clear of the mental programs, you will keep getting the same or similiar circumstances. You’ll say “Those lawyers are all the same,” or “Those construction companies are all the same” or “Those politicians are all the same,” or “Men are all the same” or “Women are all the same,” when in reality the only thing the same is you.

Roach’s The Diamond Cutter goes into all of this thinking with great depth and great writing. I’m loving it and I encourage you to read it. The book is in book stores and of course at Amazon. The author’s site is www.enlightenedbusiness.com

Remember, mental imprints are running your life. You can change them – with awareness, intent and work.

What do you want this moment’s mental imprint to be?

Choose.

PS — I can’t wait for Roach’s next book: Karmic Management: What Goes Around Comes Around in Your Business and Your Life. (Due out in September.) Meanwhile, go get The Secret to Attracting Money.

A few months ago the pool started losing water. Obviously there was a leak, but I couldn’t find it. Neither could anyone else. We all walked around the pool, looking for any obvious signs of holes or leakage, but nothing. I walked around inside the pool, too. Couldn’t find a thing. But the water kept leaving anyway. It wasn’t an emergency or even a priority, so I let it slide.

Now that the weather here in Texas is getting warmer, thoughts of the Summer come to mind. I couldn’t put off getting the pool fixed any longer. I’m going to want to be in it one day very soon.

So I called the pool company that installed it. They suggested I first hire a man who could possibly spot the hole causing the leak. I thought that was a long shot, since I and so many others had already studied the pool. But I made the call anyway.

Ramone came out the day after my call. He was talkative and friendly. Told me all about his online graffiti interests, how he writes reports on belief systems, how he used to run a pool company, and how he just hunts for pool leaks on the side for fun and profit. Fascinating guy.

Within ten minutes he announced he found the leak. I was stunned. I couldn’t believe it. I asked him to show me.

He got in the pool, which had to be freezing compared to the warm Texas air, and pointed to the tiniest of slits on the bottom of the pool. It wasn’t even on the side of the pool all of us guessed it might be. And it looked like a leaf, not a leak. I shook my head in disbelief.

Ramone then went about repairing the leak. I was still in shock. I asked him to look around the pool even more, as I thought maybe he actually missed the real leak. I couldn’t believe the tiny slit he found was the reason I lost thousands of gallons of water.

He couldn’t find another leak, I paid him, and he left. The next day I put water back in the pool. Sure enough, it’s holding just fine. Ramone had found and repaired the leak.

Here’s the lesson:

When your brain is trained to see specific things, your eyes will spot them easily.

In other words, Ramone’s experience had wired his brain to be on alert for pool leaks. He could see them when you and I could not. You and I aren’t trained to spot leaks.

But this is how you and I walk through life.

We see what we have experience in seeing. We don’t see what we don’t have experience in seeing.

Simple enough, right?

So how do you awaken your brain to see what has been there all along?

When I was learning marketing decades ago, I listened to Dan Kennedy, Jay Abraham, and others. I read the classics by John Caples, David Ogilvy, Bob Bly, and more. I trained my mind to see what it hadn’t been trained to see or do.

Today I can see business opportunities when before I could not. Today I can’t stop myself from seeing them, any more than Ramone can stop himself from finding a pool leak. It’s now natural.

To “turn on” your brain, you need to have intention and take action. The intention is to accomplish something; the action is to train yourself to see what’s actually obvious.

How do you turn on your brain?

1. Read. This has been the #1 key to my success. Read biographies, business books, psychology books and more. Read “The Power of Impossible Thinking” by Jerry Wind and Colin Crook, read “Why We Make Mistakes” by Joseph Hallinan, and read “Iconoclast: A Neuroscientist Reveals How to Think Differently” by Gregory Berns.

2. Listen. Use your travel, exercise and relaxing time to listen to audios that will expand your mind. Buy what interests you at www.nightingale.com (I have three audioprograms there: “The Secret to Attracting Money”, “The Missing Secret”, and “The Power of Outrageous Marketing”.)

3.  Train. Get coaching. I’m a big believer in having a mentor.  I have two coaching programs right now. Depending on your interests and intentions, one or both could help you awaken your brain. (See www.miraclescoaching.com or www.joevitalementoring.com) 

Final example: 

I’m about to go to Peru and speak in a stadium to 35,000 people about the Law of Attraction. I intend to learn conversational Spanish for the trip. To do so, I’m reading books, listening to audios, and looking for a tutor. This is all part of training my brain to do something it hasn’t done before (or at least not since High School Spanish in 1970).

Magic and miracles, money and more, are at hand. It’s simply a matter of “spotting pool leaks.”

 Decades ago Helene Hadsell wrote Contesting: The Name It and Claim It Game, the best book ever written on using mind power to win contests and get lucky. 

That book changed my life, as well as the lives of about 3,000,000 others. Unfortunately, the book went out of print and Helene dropped from the spotlight.

But I found Helene in 2007, talked to her, and wrote about her here on my blog. My post caused Helene to sell-out of the few remaining copies of her famous book, get bombarded with about 1,000 emails, and have to hire her kids to help run her now exploding business.

Helene didn’t stop working, or writing, or anything else, though. She’s 84-years old and as alive as a teenager drinking too much Mountain Dew.

Her recent adventure was to permit herself to be filmed, and interviewed, for a giant course on her 4-step secret for winning contests and attracting health and wealth. It’s called The Winning Sage. It’s at www.thewinningsage.com/?m=49c0e2f990cd8

Helene is fascinating. She personally knew many of the great teachers of the New Thought Movement, from prolific prosperity author Joseph The Power of Your Subconscious Mind Murphy to Silva Mind Control creator Jose Silva to the mystical founder of Eckanker, Paul Twitchell.

Helene is delightfully fearless. She calls it the way she sees it, even if what she sees is invisible.

She told me I was a monk in a past life who spent too much time “monking” around.

I guess that meant I got tired of being celibate.

She says we knew each other then.

Hmmmmmm.

Anyway, back to the real world…

The Winning Sage includes Helene’s famous book, Contesting (this alone is priceless), as well as a great deal of information about her you’ll not find anywhere else (including a documentary about her).

For me, this is the most exciting course I’ve seen in maybe decades on how to get lucky, use your mind, implement the Law of Attraction, and much more. It’s incredible.

Plus, Helene is a real live wire – a complete joy to watch, read, and listen to.

I hear this complaint from time to time–

“I like your books and I like the movie The Secret but the truth is, none of it works for me.”

Have you heard that before?

Have you maybe even said that before?

So what’s the truth?

Does the Law of Attraction (LOA) work or not?

Do all these “feel good” books and movies actually work or not?

Why do they seem to work for hundreds of thousands of people but not for you?

Let’s explore this. 

Consider…

If you drop a ball from the roof of a building, does gravity or your letting go make it drop?

Think about it.

When you toss a horseshoe, what makes it land on the other side: gravity or your toss?

Well?

Which is it?

Gravity or your action?

When a baseball player hits a ball out of the park, what made it fly and then fall: his swing or gravity?

Which was it?

Was it the swing at the ball that sent it into space, or gravity pulling it down after he hit it?

Obviously, it’s both.

It’s the same with LOA.

When anything happens in your life, you can say it was LOA that made it so or you can attribute the result to some other cause and pretend LOA doesn’t exist or doesn’t work.

You can even say, “I don’t believe in LOA.”

You can even say, “LOA doesn’t work for me.”

It’s your choice.

But what’s the truth?

What’s real?

What’s most helpful?

Look at it this way:

Why do most sports coaches tell their players about the laws of physics?

The coach believes the more you know about what is happening when you are playing the game, the more you will be conscious and will work with those laws of physics to win the game.

For example, I’ve recently begun racing my exotic sports cars. While I could just get behind the wheel and drive, the trainers teach me about geometry and physics so I have a better understanding about how to successfully drive the car at high speed.

In short, they want me to know about all the laws at play so I can accomplish my goals better.

That makes sense, doesn’t it?

The idea is to become more awake and aware so I can get more of the results I prefer, even on the race track.

The same is true in the gym.

I’ve trained with Frank Zane, Scott York and others. These athletes don’t just tell me to sweat more or lift more. They also teach me to be aware of gravity, for example, because working with it can help increase muscle mass.

Are you starting to get the picture?

The Law of Attraction is the same as the Law of Gravity or any other law: it’s working whether you give it credit or not. Knowing about it can help you achieve the results you want.

In other words, if you’re one of those who say LOA doesn’t work for you, then you might as well say gravity doesn’t work for you, either.

LOA is always working.

Gravity is always working.

That’s why they are both laws.

You can dismiss either or both if you like.

But does doing so help you or limit you?

If I can become a better driver by knowing the invisible laws at work when I race, and I can get better results in the gym with an understanding of the universal laws at work, and a sports figure can achieve his or her goals better by knowing the hidden laws underneath the game, doesn’t it behoove you to know about the other laws operating in your own life?

Given the above, what can you actually DO to get better results in your life – even when the Law of Attraction doesn’t seem to be working for you?

Here are five things:

First, quit shrugging off your power.

LOA is working and you are working it, probably unconsciously. Instead of saying it doesn’t work for you, own that it does. This is far more empowering than being a victim. Assume you are doing something inside yourself to attract the results you are getting. It all begins with accepting responsibility for your life.

Second, choose what you want.

Instead of being bounced around by circumstances, start to direct or at least request where you want to go. You turn your inner radar on when you make a decision. You begin to steer the ship. Intention helps align your body and mind to go in the direction you prefer.

Third, take action.

Nothing happens until something moves. As I’ve said many times, the universe likes speed. Money likes speed. Take inspired action ASAP. It’ll give you instant feedback and instant results. As your actions bring you new information, you then take new actions based on it.

Fourth, get clear.

I’m constantly saying that you must get clear of the limiting beliefs within you in order to attract your intention. Counter-intentions will always trip you up. Be aware of your thoughts when things don’t work out for you. Those are what you need to get clear of. Those are the beliefs that attracted what you got. How do you get clear? One easy way is through Zero Limits.

Fifth, be happy now.

Happiness is what you really want. Be happy now and you’ll have your ultimate goal and you’ll send out a vibe to attract more moments to be happy about. The best way to be happy now is to be grateful now. My hypnotic story about the pencil in the movie The Compass is a great reminder of the power of gratitude.

I’m a neurometaphysician. I created the new science of neurometaphysics.

I’m a neurometaphysician. I created the field of neurometaphysics. This goes beyond neuroscience, which is the study of how your nervous system affects your life. Neurometaphysics is the science of how your thoughts create your life.

Obviously, I can talk about and teach the deeper aspects of the LOA for hours. But I don’t need to go into deeper explanations here when I’ve written such books as The Attractor Factor, The Key and Expect Miracles; and recorded such audioprograms as The Missing Secret, The Awakening Course, and the brand-new record-breaking bestseller, The Secret to Attracting Money.

And if you want ongoing personal support, I also created an online community to help you achieve your goals at www.attractmiracles.com 

The point here is this: LOA is always working.

If that’s so, how are you attracting what you are getting (or not getting)?

It’s deeper than your conscious thoughts.

But it’s not hidden.

Look and ye shall find.

Ask and ye shall receive.

Follow the above five steps and — Expect Miracles.

PS — The Secret to Attracting Money explores all of this thinking, and more. It is a spiritual and practical system for attracting money. It goes beyond the Law of Attraction. It builds on and goes beyond anything I’ve ever done before. It’s guaranteed to work, too. See www.thesecrettoattractingmoney.com 

Note: If you want to hear more about the science of neurometaphysics, leave a comment and tell me so. Meanwhile, please Digg this post and share it with others. Thank you.

 Ever since the record-breaking launch of my new audioprogram, The Secret to Attracting Money, I’ve been getting email after email from people asking me the same great question…

“How is ‘The Secret to Attracting Money’ different from all your other CDs, home study courses, DVDs, and books? “

With over 30 books, tons of DVD & CD programs, a multitude of ebooks, and three home study courses, I should’ve expected to be asked this sooner or later.

First and foremost…

“The Secret to Attracting Money” is far different than any of my other works because it is all about one thing (and one thing only)…Attracting Money.

That’s it.  Nothing else.

The Secret to Attracting Money is a spiritual and practical system for bringing in the cash.

* I reveal new clearing methods in it.

* I explain new marketing methods in it. (Based on love and passion.)

* I deliver new insights about money and you. (These are eye-opening.)

* I talk about the Law of Attraction but also reveal the Law of Right Action. (Important!)

* I also created a wealth assessment quiz to help you understand your own hidden beliefs about money. (You’ll love it.)

* I even explain a paint-by-the-numbers approach to making money online that *anyone* can use.

* I also teach you a way to “rewrite your past” so you can create a profitable future. (Whew!)

* I also explain the money myths holding you back, and 9 ways to attract money, AND the best reason in the world to want money, AND how to determine your life purpose, AND the 7 principles for turning on your money magnet right now, AND my counter-intuitive way for attracting cash AND my own time management system, AND —

The list goes on.

In fact, I decided to record The Secret to Attracting Money in response to all the emails and letters I got from people struggling with their finances in 2008.

That’s why when you listen to The Secret to Attracting Money, I even have a section on “How to Make Money In Any Economic Climate.”

I have never, I repeat never, put together a comprehensive home study audio course that combines all of my most up-to-date Law of Attraction, marketing and money attraction techniques.

With all that in mind…

There’s no question that this program utilizes some of my proven concepts, like my five-step attractor factor system and my process for getting out of the victim mentality.

These concepts have become part of everything I do and teach.  And they are constantly growing and evolving, just like I do. Just like you do.

In fact, now that I think about it…

If you bought everything on my website, and spent tens of thousands of dollars, you wouldn’t even come close to having all the information in The Secret to Attracting Money.  (And I’m guessing you have not bought everything on my website.  If you have – thank you.)  🙂

With The Secret to Attracting Money, you’ll not only get my most up-to-date concepts (perfect for getting you through this economy) – all of them will be showing you how to do one thing, unlike my other works – attract money.

Get it at www.thesecrettoattractingmoney.com

I should mention that the program is less than two weeks old and has already sold out three times. No one expected the high demand for it. At any rate, your order will be shipped on a first come, first served basis.

If I were you, I’d go order it right now.
