Autosuggestion – my 90 day trial begins…

We’re actually already halfway through the 10 week commitment to reading Napoleon Hill’s book “Think and Grow Rich”, but it’s only now I seem to have woken up to the fact that we’re not just going through the motions of reading this book – but that this book is actually starting to change my own thinking.

Maybe it’s the group dynamic that has enabled this – a group of 5 (open-minded but sceptical members I’d say after the introductory meeting), we’ve been meeting once a week for about an hour and a half to discuss what we’ve read in this amazing book.

The discussions have been getting livelier and more dynamic week on week. I started out ‘facilitating’ these meetings – leading the group through the required reading, offering encouragement, making sure everyone got a chance to speak and that we didn’t get stuck on one point for too long, keeping it all moving forward and providing ‘guidance’ in the form of a great series of back-up notes provided by LifeSuccess Consulting, who encourage people all around the world to start Hill-style MasterMind groups.

But this week, after we’d all read Chapter 4 on Auto-Suggestion  (the Third Step toward riches!), the dynamics suddenly seemed to change and the group has really started coming into its own, with people making suggestions of creative ways to approach setting our goals, working out what we think our individual purposes are, what to write (or draw or collage or photograph) onto our goalcards in preparation for the Auto-suggestion thing.
Generally, everyone seems to really be enjoying the process of drastically expanding their thinking up and away from where it has mainly been lurking up to now.

And they all seemed happy to hear that according to the research I’d done in preparation for the meeting we could now expect and anticipate great results within an actual timeframe. According to Dr. Thruman Fleet (founder of Concept Therapy in the 1930s) if you practice autosuggestion on a daily basis – ie. read out your goal to yourself as if you have already attained it, as if you are there, as often as you can through the day, but at least twice a day – then these (positive) thoughts should be able to (scientifically) change the physical vibrations your body gives out WITHIN 90 DAYS and via the law of attraction, your results in your life should thus change too.

So that was enough to spur them all on to actually write their goalcards, rather than just talk about writing them, and also to meet together outside of the discussion group session to create some images together that might help us all see ourselves achieving our goals more clearly… and we’re meeting again this week to discuss Ch6 – Imagination… and it all feels quite amazing to have helped start this journey…

So our 90 day group trial starts here… but guess who hasn’t written their goalcard in full yet?

Better get on with it, haven’t I?
