One key to success is the ability to have a clear vision of where it is you want to go. Once you have a clear vision, it's important to plan out as much as possible on how you intend to get there. As a Success Development Consultant, it's important for me to sell myself as an image. Since I am starting from scratch with no reputation outside of my little circle, I need to take the time to do activities that allow me to present myself as an expert.
This will be done in many different ways. Article writing is something I have already been doing with well over a 100 articles online. I will also start to submit articles to physical magazines and publications. I will also take the time to network online and get involved in forum's, groups, social sites, and connections with other people that are a part of the self help and law of attraction.
Making sure you have a workable plan is essential to success. Of course there are pieces that you may not know how you will get to where you want to go. That is fine. Simply have faith that an answer will present itself when the time is right. An answer will present itself when the time is right, and you will get to where you want to go. But plan things out as best as possible. A goal is a dream with a deadline. It is amazing how inspiring having a workable plan is. All that needs to be done at that point is working the plan. Plan the work an work the plan.
Good luck on your journey's and I'll keep you posted on my ow progress as I make my own path in the world.

The Path Of Life
Sometimes we all get a sense of being overwhelmed. If you are truly on a path of personal development, and you are growing, and you are heading toward success, there will be times when life seems to overwhelm you. There will be moments when there never seems to be enough time to get everything done you want to get done, and that it seems so far to get to where you want to go.
We must take time to reflect on where we have already gone from time to time. We have to look back and see how far we have come. There will always be more that needs to be done, and more places we want to go. The horizon, when we are constantly moving, will always seem like it is over there. Just as if you were to walk from one coast to the next. The horizon will always be in the future way out there. But we need to look back at the path we have traveled so far and how far we have come and all we have done.
There will also be times when the path will seem lonely. Every one deals with the feeling of being alone in this world. In fact, some people have so much trouble dealing with the feeling of being alone that they take their own lives. This too is normal, and will pass. Every persons life is a path that is traveled alone, but with company. What I mean is that no one else walks in your steps, travels your path, and heads in your direction. There will always be people along the journey who travel beside us from time to time, and some longer than others, but the journey of life is a journey that is always taken alone.
All of this is normal, and sometimes it's easier than others. We need to remember to keep moving no matter how much life seems to overwhelm us at times. We need to remember that it's never the destination that matters, but it truly is the journey to get there. The destination can be rewarding, but it only lasts for a few moments before the next part of another journey begins. Life is a journey, and that journey is a personal one. Travel it well, and the rewards along the path will more than make the time and effort worth while.

The Power Of Dreams
The title of this blog is the power of dreams, and I am talking about both types of dreams. The ones we have in our hearts while we are awake, and the ones that we hold in our minds at night as we sleep. Both are powerful forces in our lives, and both need to be recognized and listened to on a regular basis.
The dreams we hold in our hearts during our waking hours dictate much of what we do and the decisions we make on a regular basis. These should be the things that create passion deep inside of us. The parts of us that move us to do more with ourselves and our lives. The pieces of our lives that give us something to wake up for every morning. Be it in love, business, pleasure, or whatever part of our lives. Our dreams are what turn us into the people we become, and the choices we make to get there shape our character. The people with out dreams are the ones who die the quickest, on the inside and the outside.
Our dreams at night on the other hand are a little bit different. These are a direct reflection into our emotions and our desires and our hopes. It is our subconscious mind trying to communicate with us. Tell us what is really going on inside of us and sometimes on the outside in the world around us. Our dreams need our attention on a regular basis because they give us incredible insight into where we currently are. Our emotions and our reactions to things.
For example, I had a dream last night that I was on a train and I had a human heart. I had to protect that human heart from ghosts that were coming to get it. I wasn't afraid or anything of these ghosts because I knew that no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't get the heart from me. I had to pay attention and be careful, but I just knew they wouldn't be able to get it. I believe this dream means that I have to be careful with my heart as I keep it out in the open from the ghosts of not only my past, but of my present. I am still not sure what the train was all about, or why all of this happened at night in my dream, but that will come with a little more reflection.
The point though is that our dreams tell us a lot of information that we should pay attention to. Our waking dreams and desires tell us where we want to go and what path we should be on to find our own sense of happiness and peace. Our dreams at night help us know if we are on the right path or not. Learn to listen to all your dreams. They are incredibly powerful forces and offer insight into many different parts of ourselves and our lives.

Emotional Control
Learning to manage our emotions can be one of the most valuable skills we can ever learn. There is so much in the world and our daily lives sometimes that will effect our emotions in a negative way that we just can't afford not to manage our emotions. The law of attraction states that we will attract to us what ever we think and feel about the most. So we have to manage our emotions and keep them in the positive realm. I know, that's not always the easiest thing to do.
About three months ago I met a woman with whom I had been talking with on an almost daily basis. Of course I didn't love this woman, but I had begun to feel strongly for her. Well, recently she started playing games. We went out dancing one night and she spent most of the night grinding on other men. That didn't bother me so much since I know women like to socialize and I received her intimacy and kisses. More recently she isn't answering when I call and such. Of course this put me into a negative state fairly easily and reminded me of the importance of managing my emotions. I had to work pretty hard to let go of the negative thoughts and mindset and emotions and bring them back to the positive side, but I did. Life is to short to feel badly.
I learned a couple lessons from this experience. The first is that I have to stay focused on my goals and the adventure that my life is on and maintain those positive emotions in all areas of my life regardless of what another area is causing. The second thing I learned is that I need to be even more clear when working with the law of attraction. I used it to attract her, but I obviously forgot to ask for a woman who is emotionally available as well as all the other traits I want in a woman. Experience is the greatest teacher, so the more I work with the law of attraction the better I get with it.
So learn from my mistakes. Make sure you are as clear as crystal when you ask the universe for what you want, and make sure you learn to manage your emotions and keep them positive. Good luck on your journey of success!
Peace and Happiness,

The Power Of Progress
There is an incredible power in making progress. It's almost as though a demon possess our body and makes us want to do more. I can't even take a moment to rest without something inside of me nagging to accomplish more and move forward. Action really does beget motivation. Remember to take steps every day to move closer to your goals. Be it one article, or one page on your site, or a page in your book, or whatever your goals are. Remember to always move forward. I took some time and wrote four articles today and they are starting to spread over the net. They have been taken over 370 times on ezinearticles.com. And the more I post the more they are used by other people on other sites. I simply don't have enough time in a day to do as much as I would like as I work a 12 hour day at a job then try to get things done on my site. I am in the process of finding a new job that will allow me more time to work on my site. I have created incredible results with just two to three hours a day and as much time as possible on weekends. I can't wait to explode when I have an additional three to four hours a day to put into my site. I'll keep you posted about how things go for me.

Regular Progress
I have been working very diligently to create articles and get them online to drive traffic to my site. Things have been going wonderfully. I will break over 1000 visitors this month alone. Of course that isn't huge, however, I think it's pretty darn good for my first website ever and only working on it for a month and a half. The sky is the limit and I look forward to building it bigger and bigger. http://www.wealthylifesecrets.com is the beginning of a path toward accomplishing the goals of my life. It's important for us to remember to make progress every day, even if it is just a tiny bit.
The rest of my life is really going through some major reconstruction and change. Things really feel like they are on a seasaw right now and could topple either direction. I hate the feeling of being in limbo like I am right now, and I just want things to break in one direction or another. That is the problem with things sometimes. They get to a point where everything is fragile and needs to move in order for progress to be made, but we do what we can and sometimes it's just not enough. But we keep moving and eventually everything does break and move. As an icy river dams up for awhile, it can't stay that way forever.
Anyway, I will keep posting as often as I can. I intend to get to the point that I am able to post every other day if not everyday to keep those of you reading this post up to date on how things are going and hopefully offer good tips that can help you move forward with your own life and website.

How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time.
I posted another two articles yesterday. The path to success is sometimes a tedious one. It takes time and effort and energy. I work a full time job of at least ten hours a day, usually twelve, so I don't have the time to put into my website that I would like, but that will all shift. I found out that google has a stats program called google analytics. It's a free program that does a wonderful job at tracking visitors and where they come from and their geographic location and stuff like that. I recommend it for anyone who is getting started with a website. I currently have an average of 15 visitors a day. Not bad for just a months worth of work. I am also looking to get out into other marketing arenas to drive traffic to my site so I'll post about those tactics as I use them.
