If you want to be successful, then learn to do what successful people do.
Successful people have certain traits, they do certain things, and they function in certain ways. Learn those things and do them, and you will be successful too.
*Successful people want to be successful. They have a burning desire to succeed. They are willing to do whatever it takes to achieve their goals. This powerful desire propels them towards their goals, through obstacles, etc.
*Successful people learn to believe in themselves. They turn away from thoughts of failure and focus their attention on success.
*Successful people accomplish things.
*First, they manage their own lives, so that they can direct their energy into activities that will help make them more successful.
*Second, successful people get into action. They have strategies to help them determine what to do, and then get into action and do it. They have goals, and they go after those goals.
*Successful people relate well to other people. You do not achieve great success in a vacuum. The better you are at dealing with other people, at knowing what other people want and need, and how to satisfy those needs, the more successful you will be.
*Successful people are able to get the information that they need to make correct decisions. This enables them to solve more problems. There is no such thing as a problem without a solution; only problems for which we do not yet have enough information to know what the solution is.
Now scientific research has finally learned how to teach all of these traits to anyone who is willing to put in the time and energy to learn them.
It is more than simply a matter of learning something - you have to take action. You learn a new way to function, to process information the way that the super successful people do.
And then you use your new abilities and apply them in the same manner that highly successful people do, so that you will be more successful also.
You have already learned the Silva Method.
Now practice what you have learned.
Practice the Long Relaxation Exercise once a week.
Work health cases regularly, and establish more points of reference so that you will be able to use your clairvoyant faculties more effectively.
Help to correct problems whenever possible.
Get involved in a Silva Graduate Support Group. Do not depend on your Silva Method lecturer to take care of your problems. Help each other.
If we all keep working to correct problems, then we can bring peace to the planet, and convert the planet into a paradise.
The Silva Method, Silva Life System and Silva Intuition Training - sharing these is a joy. It's so uplifting and rewarding to see people learn the skills and techniques, apply them in their lives and increase their fulfillment and happiness. I am privileged to work with Silva Graduates in a coaching relationship.

If you’ve been feeling on edge lately but can’t really put your finger on why – let me assure you: you’re not alone. A lot of us are starting to realise that something is going on. There’s some big changes happening here on planet Earth – both geologically and metaphysically – and it doesn’t always feel good.
As earthquakes literally rock our world, we humans are being rocked by an internal upheaval just as life-transforming. What is it?
Changing Beliefs
You see, we’re undergoing a shift in human consciousness. And that shift has got a lot of us feeling like the very ground beneath us is rocking and swaying – not unlike the earth quakes that are getting more intense and frequent all around our planet.
This is a time when our ‘higher selves’ are asking us to make some radical changes in our beliefs, because the beliefs we once thought stable and certain are now shifting like so much sand under our feet.
But how do we go about changing beliefs? How do we stay clear and strong even as all we once knew is in flux? First, let’s have a look at what beliefs are, (or more importantly, what’ they’re not), and then look at what to do to make this transformation as smooth as possible.
1. You’re NOT your Beliefs
Here’s the dilemma: we think our beliefs define who we are. Then, when life offers us information that clearly challenges those beliefs, we tend to get angry, scared or shift into denial, feeling as if our very life is threatened. Sounds irrational, doesn’t it? But think about how many times you’ve experienced or observed hostility, resentment and even the loss of friendships (to say nothing of war and abuse) all because someone said you were wrong, or because you told someone they weren’t right.
But the thing is – you’re not your beliefs. Not at all. A belief, as Abraham-Hicks explains, is simply “a thought you keep thinking.” No matter how long you’ve held a belief, no matter how much you’ve invested your life, time and energy into a belief, you are much, much more than that. Let’s take an example to illustrate …
Let’s say you lived during the 15th century, and you grew up believing that the world was flat. Then this guy Columbus comes along and willy-nilly, the world becomes round and your beliefs are wiped aside like a silly bit of nonsense. Does this change change you? Does it reduce you, limit you or in any way diminish you? Of course not! In fact, if you lived during such an era of sweeping change (and believe me – you do!), the discoveries that demand an instantaneous change in your beliefs would have rocked your world – for the better.
2. Ask for Guidance
Whether you ascribe to a higher Self, higher power, deeper knowing, angelic forces or ultimate God/Source energy, during this time of change, calling upon that which is most sacred to you will help you find ease with this personal and planetary transition. This is because when we ask for guidance we reach beyond the ego-based personality, a structure founded on the very beliefs we may now be called to change.
3. Breath
Sounds simple – is mighty. Breath is Life, and bringing your attention to it during times of stress can actually assist your physiological functioning as well as calm your mind. So when changing beliefs is feeling so painful that it’s more like cutting off a limb, breath and breath and breath.
4. Face your Fears
Take some time to look with courage at the beliefs you cherish most, then ask yourself the scariest question of all: “What would happen if this belief were wrong?” Scary, eh? I understand. But the strange thing is, when you actually face your greatest fears surrounding your beliefs, you open the door to mental and emotional liberation. Don’t believe me? Try it and see.
5. Forgive
Forgive yourself, forgive others, forgive your fears, your doubts, your disbeliefs. Forgive anyone and anything – including those who taught you any beliefs that now seem false. The more your forgive, the freer you’ll feel. Promise.
6. Meditate
In order to really begin to feel that you are not your beliefs, you have to get some mental ‘space’ from them. And there’s no more powerful, efficient way to get some space between your self-beyond-your-beliefs and your thoughts is through meditation. Meditation creates spaciousness in the mind. Allowing you to recognize – as Eckhart Tolle would say – that your thoughts and beliefs are no more than “content in the NOW.”
7. Choose Love
I’m not just talking about romantic love. And I’m definitely not talking about conditional love of any kind. I’m talking about love as the opposite of fear. I’m talking about loving acceptance for self, for others and for the earth, no matter what changes come. I’m talking about dropping judgement, drama and fear and committing yourself to a higher, deeper presence – no matter how tumultuous life feels.
Are you feeling a tumult of changes in your life that are demanding you reevaluate your beliefs? If you are, please share your story with us in the comments section below. This way we can help to support each other during these changing times.

As many of you might know, last December, we hosted a personal growth getaway on the pristine beaches of Costa Rica called AwesomenessFest. About 200 people passionate about self development and spirituality came together, connected, and shared their learnings.
So for those who couldn’t join us, I wanted to share one of the best rated speeches at AwesomenessFest. It’s by psychic, David Morelli. He’s incredibly successful, having hit 2 million-dollar businesses over the past couple years and his radio show podcast, Everything Is Energy (hosted by him and his wife, Kristin) is the #3 show on iTunes just behind Oprah Winfrey and Marianne Williamson.
And he achieved all this using his intuition. Check out this video and if you want to skip straight to the meditation at the end, fast forward to the minute 22:33.

Connect To Your Creative Spirit Through Music, Visualization and Meditation
By Paul Hoffman of Success Songs
The world is but a canvas to the imagination. — Henry David Thoreau
The great OM of life, that natural willingness for you to open your soul to what is seeking to be expressed comes from a committed consciousness that is developed by learning how to master your mind. It is in those moments of curious inflection that the call of your soul speaks loudest so that you hear the calling of your heart.
Each day you are on an adventure. The discoverer in you is seeking to cross the bridges of possibility so that the opportunity to live life from your higher purpose ignites a passion in you to step out of the shadows of uncertainty and into the light of flowness. Your Creative Flow!!!
So What Is Creativity?
Creativity is the messenger of imagination, the kindred spirit of inspiration, the guiding light of unlimited ideas and the energetic vibration that encourages you to flow and go.
There is an inherent presence in you, a dynamic uniqueness that is guided by an individuality that is awakened when you awaken to your Creative Spirit. Being in the flow of your creativity heightens your awareness so that Your Voice Of Action™ communicates in a way so you know all things are possible and you welcome the sense of surprise into your life.
The Power Of Autosuggestion
Your mind works in the ways you tell it to. You create your reality. The food of genius you put into it will harvest according to the mindset you operate from. When you are a witness to your inner dialogue you harness the power of your creative spirit. Therefore, it is important that you cultivate a process so you can listen to what you say to yourself.
Freeing himself of a drug and alcohol addiction, Paul Hoffman turned his life around because of his commitment to bringing himself back to the core of his being.
With the discovery of meditation, he was reconnected to the real source of his inspiration, which was his heart. He had rediscovered himself and re-ignited his passion for music.
He is now dedicated to helping others through meditation and music and works to shift people at a subconscious level, empowering and motivating the listener to wake-up to who they really are. He is also the co-author of the widely acclaimed Sonic Access Meditation program with Paul Scheele.
Napoleon Hill said: ”Your ability to use the principle of autosuggestion will depend, very largely, upon your capacity to concentrate upon a given desire until that desire becomes a burning obsession.”
So when you align your inner mind with the magic of your soul and the calling of your heart your outer desires will be created from the realm of your greatness!
7 Steps To Create Harmony With Your Creative Spirit
I recommend creating a daily ritual to help guide you through the constant egoic chatter of the day so that what you create comes from your Action Voice.™ This is a process I do each day and always before I am ready to make a strategic decision so I am in harmony with my creative spirit.
1.Quiet The Mind
2.Connect To Your Heart
3.Listen To Your Intuition
4.Free Your Imagination
5.Visualize Your Outcomes
6.Capture Your Inspirations
7.Communicate In Your Action Voice™
You see the way you communicate to yourself will create the energy that you act from. Living in your genius is a practice that is accompanied by a focused discipline to connect to your higher purpose. You must be available to your inner core of brilliance in order to cultivate that practice.
Your Heart’s Invitation To You
There is a transparency in you that invites you to fulfill the calling of your heart. It is present in every moment of your day as a timeless extension of your beingness always looking for ways to seek out and to express the picture of your soul.
As Michelangelo said “I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free.” That is the same as giving yourself permission to live unencumbered by any thoughts of lack and limitation and to step into the true power that resides within you so you create magic in every moment.
Just remember all great ideas came from a thought that someone thought up. And not everyone thought some of those ideas were worth anything but as Albert Camus said: “All great deeds and all great thoughts have a ridiculous beginning.” Courage is infectious and creativity is contagious.
Connect To Your Creative Spirit Through Music, Meditation, & Visualization
There are many ways to connect to your Creative Spirit. Some of us experience the awakening of the Creative Spirit through intuitive journeys while others connect to it through the use of other creative pathways such as Music, Meditation and Visualization.
Music stirs the soul. Meditation quiets the mind freeing the heart to seek and express the passion within and Visualization allows you to see the end in mind so that you can create a plan to manifest your desires.
Music, Meditation and Visualization will open your success chakras, connect you to your passion, awaken your sense of purpose, strengthen your mind and offer you a pristine view of your soul. The greatest minds in the world used these disciplines to enhance their creativity.
Focused Intention
One of the pre-requisites to tapping into your creativity is to have a practice of focused intention. Mark Twain said “You can’t depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus.” Being certain of mind creates clarity and releases any barriers to your success.
Music frees the mind. How many times have you been stuck in a particular place in your thinking and when you put on a piece of music you all of a sudden seemed to think in ways that resulted in a renewed sense of enthusiasm. You begin to look for new ways to solve challenges.
Listening to a piece of music that stirs the imagination evokes an emotion of expansiveness, encourages the taking of positive actions and ignites feelings of joy. It will ready you for the most complex tasks you may have thought were impossible, creating a direct path to unleashing your creativity.
Music also evokes positive feelings in an instant giving you an emotional shift in consciousness. It is almost as if an internal switch is flipped and you all of a sudden feel a heightened sense of awareness for what you are doing.
As Plato said “Music is the movement of sound to reach the soul for the education of its virtue.” Music opens the door to an infinite view of creativity that speaks passionately to the calling of your heart.
Meditation produces a state of calm that will ready you for a renewed sense of inspiration. Meditation invites your imagination to open your mind in ways that produce insights of opportunities and beliefs of possibility. Many great thinkers used meditation to produce extraordinary results.
Having a daily meditation practice readies you for your day. Knowing that the mind processes so much information having a practice to filter out the bits that distract you will keep you focused. When you master your mind you create a flow of thought that will be in alignment with your vision in the moment. Meditation helps you do that.
As John Maynard Keynes said: “The difficulty lies not so much in developing new ideas as in escaping from old ones.” Meditation releases any difficulty of thought and ushers in a landscape of what is truly possible for you to create.
And finally learn to Visualize your outcomes. How you view your day, what mental picture you hold for it determines the outcomes you will create. The greatest inventions and discoveries were made by those who had a mental picture of what they wanted to do and then thought big and bold and took action. They welcomed being surprised.
Your mind is alive and always in search of the ideas that will bring into reality the results you are seeking. As you look out over the landscape of your day you begin to see an oasis of opportunity. The more vivid the picture, the more powerful the urge to make it your reality and the more you will listen to the rhythm of your soul.
Holding a clear vision brings into focus the seeds of creativity that are in the garden of your mind. You then begin to operate from a big thinking mentality and an abundant point of view. You see the unseen!
Einstein said: The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science. He to whom the emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause and stand wrapped in awe, is as good as dead; his eyes are closed.”
However your creativity shows up, know that you have the power to step into the magic of your life by bridging the awesomeness of your essence with the spirit of your authenticity.
You Are Already Being Guided To Fulfillment
All around you an energetic vibration of prosperity guides you towards the fulfillment of your dreams. Savor the abundance of your imagination and the unlimited creative spirit within you. One of my mantras is: “If what you dream wasn’t already inside of you how could you even dream it.” Think about that. You have it all right where you are. Right NOW!
Some of you may ask, am I creative? Some of you even proclaim to yourself that you are not creative. You may even fear the creativity in you. Your creativity is always present and always available to you. Remember everything you do is based on a creative expression that you think up. It is an idea in your mind, a blossoming of your spirit.
The creative spirit within you connects you to your greatness and your potential to spread your awesomeness in all you do. Creativity is the fuel that sparks your imagination. It is the wave of discovery that opens you up to stepping into the light of your genius. It is the all-knowing power that sets you apart from mediocrity. It is the calling card of your individuality.
Do not be held back by limiting beliefs. Free your mind so your soul opens up to the magnificence of each moment. Connect to the unlimited power in you to have it all. Einstein said “If at first, the idea is not absurd, then there is no hope for it. “
There is a vast reservoir of creativity within you. Listen to it so that you begin to create your life the way you want it to look like. Your thoughts are dripping with possibility. Follow your glow of brilliance. And begin to see that where you are has always been where you wanted to be.
A large part of my life has manifested through meditation, music, and visualization. That’s why I’m so excited to share with you two amazing audio tracks that takes these three mediums to give you the inspiration, boost, and creativity to turn your intentions into reality.

Your mind is alive and always in search of the ideas that will bring into reality the results you are seeking. As you look out over the landscape of your day you begin to see an oasis of opportunity. The more vivid the picture, the more powerful the urge to make it your reality and the more you will listen to the rhythm of your soul.
Holding a clear vision brings into focus the seeds of creativity that are in the garden of your mind. You then begin to operate from a big thinking mentality and an abundant point of view. You see the unseen!
Einstein said: The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science. He to whom the emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause and stand wrapped in awe, is as good as dead; his eyes are closed.”
However your creativity shows up, know that you have the power to step into the magic of your life by bridging the awesomeness of your essence with the spirit of your authenticity.
You Are Already Being Guided To Fulfillment
All around you an energetic vibration of prosperity guides you towards the fulfillment of your dreams. Savor the abundance of your imagination and the unlimited creative spirit within you. One of my mantras is: “If what you dream wasn’t already inside of you how could you even dream it.” Think about that. You have it all right where you are. Right NOW!
Some of you may ask, am I creative? Some of you even proclaim to yourself that you are not creative. You may even fear the creativity in you. Your creativity is always present and always available to you. Remember everything you do is based on a creative expression that you think up. It is an idea in your mind, a blossoming of your spirit.
The creative spirit within you connects you to your greatness and your potential to spread your awesomeness in all you do. Creativity is the fuel that sparks your imagination. It is the wave of discovery that opens you up to stepping into the light of your genius. It is the all-knowing power that sets you apart from mediocrity. It is the calling card of your individuality.
Do not be held back by limiting beliefs. Free your mind so your soul opens up to the magnificence of each moment. Connect to the unlimited power in you to have it all. Einstein said “If at first, the idea is not absurd, then there is no hope for it. “
There is a vast reservoir of creativity within you. Listen to it so that you begin to create your life the way you want it to look like. Your thoughts are dripping with possibility. Follow your glow of brilliance. And begin to see that where you are has always been where you wanted to be.
A large part of my life has manifested through meditation, music, and visualization. That’s why I’m so excited to share with you two amazing audio tracks that takes these three mediums to give you the inspiration, boost, and creativity to turn your intentions into reality.

The Silva Method in the Land Where Meditation Began
Welcome to another edition of the SIGA Success Strategies online magazine.
Here is an article that Jose Silva wrote several years ago, after he returned from a very successful trip to India, where people were very happy to see him.
By JOSE SILVA
The Silva Method is a big success in the land where meditation began.
We just returned from a three-week visit to India and Bangladesh where more than 1,000 people came to the advanced Silva Method training with me.
Yoga is the oldest meditation system known. It began in India at least 5,000 years ago.
Yogis typically meditate at theta levels. This is why some of them are able to perform amazing feats with their bodies - sleeping on a bed of nails, slowing their metabolism so that they can be buried alive for a month, withstanding great pain.
But they cannot become mentally active at the theta level.
They told us that yoga feels wonderful. It can bring a sense of oneness, a feeling of euphoria. They say that they often gain great insight.
Yet with all of this, India still has a great amount of poverty and suffering.
Yoga is too slow, they report. It takes too long to learn how to solve the problems that they have here and now, and even then they seem limited compared to the techniques of the Silva Method.
We took the Ultra Seminar to India, presenting the 2-day program in Bombay and New Delhi, and also to Bangladesh. In all, more than 1,000 Silva Method graduates attended.
They learned new techniques to use to heal themselves and others:
*We taught them the Silva Rapid Hand Vibration Healing Method. We asked for volunteers, as we always do.
Several people came up front who were in pain, or who had limited mobility. Several others came up who wanted to be healers. We showed the healers what to do, and, as always happens, the subjects showed substantial improvement.
*They learned the complete laying on of hands system that has proven so successful, even for people with so-called "terminal" illnesses. They watched us demonstrate it, and then they practiced it themselves.
*They learned how to read the Silva Standard Conditioning Cycle to their loved ones, and then practiced reading it to each other. Now they are able to help their family members by teaching them how to find their level and use the Silva Method formula-type techniques.
*We showed them several additional ways that they can get a person into a receptive programming state, through confusion, suspense, and so forth.
*We covered the use of reinforcing mechanisms so that their programming will continue to work even when they are not present. It is sort of like a "timed release" medicine.
*They saw demonstrations of biofeedback equipment and learned many ways that it can help them to improve their lives. We showed them how to use a small tape player as a healing instrument.
*They found out how to program for various business situations, such as learning how to use a reinforcing mechanism to program a person to have a desire to pay a debt.
*They learned even more, such as how to use their level to strengthen family ties and build better relationships, the best time to program, special techniques to improve visualization, psychometry, and more.
It was only a few years ago that we first introduced the Silva Method in India. Bob Stone, the co-author of several of our books, opened the door for us.
Bob reported that the first time he went to India to talk about the Silva Method and effective the techniques are, one member of the audience spoke up and said, "Dr. Stone, it seems like you are storming the gates of heaven."
Bob said that he took a deep breath, looked him in the eye and answered, "Well, maybe it's time that we did."
The audience applauded enthusiastically.
Bimolendu Rakshit is our director in India, and Mahee Quazi in Bangladesh. They are adding new scientific findings to an old tradition of meditation and introspection.
The result is that more problems are being solved, people's lives are improving, and the world is becoming a little better place to live.

Where Mind and Matter Meet with Bruce Lipton
Dr. Bruce Lipton says that, when it comes to health and the human body, a lot of the things we think are proven fact “actually aren’t very true at all”.
He says disease isn’t pre-determined by your genes but by how you 'rewrite' them, based on your beliefs. In other words – your thoughts and beliefs determine your physical experience.
If you’ve been putting all your faith in western medicine these are probably pretty radical statements. You may be shocked to know that this isn't all new information!! Some of it is 50 years old!
This is actually a series of short videos wherein he explains the current research and knowledge. If you're interested in the power of the mind, energy medicine, you're going to love these.
Here's the first video to get you started. Enjoy!
