THE WEALTHY SPIRIT: DAILY AFFIRMATIONS day 2 By Chellie Campbell

Rules for Affirmations

“Getting ahead in a difficult profession requires avid faith in yourself. You must be able to sustain yourself against staggering blows. That is why some people with mediocre talent, but with great inner drive, go much farther than people with vastly superior talent.” —Sophia Loren




Great inner drive is sustained by daily positive thoughts about yourself and your expectations for your future. Affirmations are designed to help you with this process, but they only work if you say them. Knowing about them isn’t the same as doing them.


When you make the commitment to practicing positive thinking on a daily basis, what affirmations should you use? You can use the affirmations in this book, collect them from other books, or write your own. Whichever you choose, make sure that they follow the three rules for creating affirmations:

1.State affirmations in the present tense. Affirmations must be stated in the present tense, such as “I am prosperous” or “I am rich and wonderful” because if you put them in the future tense, “I’m going to be rich” you will be creating a picture in your mind that someday you’ll be prosperous, but not now. You want to program prosperity for now, today—not someday. It’s like a sign posted at a bar: “Free Beer Tomorrow.” When does the customer get free beer?



2.State affirmations in the positive. When you speak your affirmations, you are giving instructions to your subconscious mind. Neuro-linguistic programming has determined that the subconscious has no picture for “not,” “don’t” and other negative qualifiers. For example, if I tell you, “Don’t think about pink elephants, don’t see the little baby pink elephant with its trunk curled around its mama pink elephant’s tail,” I’m sure you are picturing pink elephants in your mind right now. You can’t help it. So, when you create an affirmation, say “I always have plenty of money in my bank account” rather than “I’m not going to be overdrawn on my bank account again.” Picture what you want instead of what you don’t want or you’ll be giving power to the wrong thing.



3.Be specific. A photographer friend of mine told me how much she wanted to go to Greece. She thought a great way to get there would be if she was paid to go, by getting a photography assignment there. Excited by the concept, she started doing affirmations for this trip daily: “I have a photography assignment in Athens! I have a photography assignment in Athens!” Four months later, she received the call—she had her assignment for a photo shoot in Athens. Athens, Georgia. Oops. Make sure you state exactly what it is you want.

Today’s Affirmation: “I always have plenty of money!”





THE WEALTHY SPIRIT: DAILY AFFIRMATIONS day 1 By Chellie Campbell

Celebrate a New Beginning!

“There are some people who live in a dream world, and there are some who face reality, and then there are those who turn one into the other.” —Douglas Everett



This is a day of celebration: Awake and sing the song of a bold new beginning. The point of power is in the moment and this moment you can start your new path towards success, wealth and happiness. Whatever came before is buried in the snows of last year. You can and you will—whatever you desire.



We are all graduates of MSU—Make Stuff Up. Whatever you have done in your life so far, you made it all up. You chose where you live, what you wear, what friends you have, what profession you’re in, how much money you make. And you choose again each day to maintain and build upon those things or to let go of them and pick up new things, new roads, new directions. On this day of your new beginning, all paths are open, all doors unlocked, all possibilities unlimited. What will you choose to be, do, and have now and going forward?



At the beginning of each Financial Stress Reduction™ Workshop, I ask participants to write down their “Intended Results.” It is a list of goals they want to accomplish in the course. I ask you to do this as well. What is your intention in reading this book? What do you want to have achieved by the end of it? Make a list of your goals for the next one-year period—financial, emotional, and spiritual. Goals have been called “dreams with deadlines.” Writing them down brings them from the metaphysical realm into the physical. No longer just a fantasy, the idea now exists in concrete form as a written document. If you have written goals down in the past, look at them and acknowledge yourself for the ones you have accomplished. Whatever remains undone may be transferred to your new list.



Make wealth—internal and external—your goal this year. Believe you will make more money with less stress and have more time off for fun with your family and friends. Be willing to risk change and survive the storms to find your highest good. Counting your money will make your money count—and remember to count your friends and your blessings as well.

Then celebrate—you have taken the first step along the path to great achievement!





chicken & egg situation. how do we raise our children?

excerpt from my reading from Majalah i.

tiada istilah matang segera.



kisah sebagai teladan.

William James Sidis, dibesarkan oleh bapanya yang merupakan professor dan tokoh behaviourism psychology yang begitu yakin bahawa pembiasaan merupakan kunci terpenting pendidikan.

Ketika umur enam bulan, ayahnya sudah mendedahkannya dengan huruf-huruf yang sesuai dengan susunan abjad. selepas itu dia terus dididik dengan ilmu kaji bumi, matematik dsb. hasilnya pada umur 5 tahun, william mampu menulis karya ilmiah tentang anatomi. kecerdikannya terus berkembang hingga umur 11 tahun, telah menjadi mahasiswa di universiti Harvard dan pada umur 14 tahun sudah mampu mengajar.

walau bagaimanapun , ia tidak mampu memberinya kebahagiaan. pada usia 20-an, dia telah mula melarikan diri. di katakan dia sudah mahu berhenti berfikir. bekerja sebagai pencuci pinggan dia antara pekerjaannya.

ada juga kisah-kisah yang seakan-akan seperti sufiah yusof, other child prodigy.

pembentukan 3 potensi manusia berbeza-beza. yang paling sukar adalah karakter, motivasi dan paling  mudah adalah kognitif dan keterampilan. sekiranya seseorang itu memiliki karakter yang kuat, mudah baginya untuk memperoleh kemampuan kognitif mahupun keterampilan yang tinggi. Inilah yang kita perlu perhatikan ketika anak-anak masih muda.

pencarian utama adalah pembentukan personaliti anak atau karakter yang lebih berkait dengan kualiti dalam diri. personaliti ini bermula dengann kesedaran terhadap nilai-nilai, penghayatannya dan dapat mengawasi tingkah lakunya.

penerapan dalam diri anak-anak tentang ilmu pengetahuan yang lebih diutamakan adalah tahap yang paling mudah. ini yang lebih banyak diamalkan dan menjadi kayu pengukur dalam cara pendidikan di masa kini.sedangkan personaliti diri adalah penentu kejayaan seseorang itu.

personaliti yang berkualiti.

1. kesedaran terhadap nilai

2. penyertaan, kesediaan menerapkan nilai tersebut didalam kehidupan

3. penghayatan nilai ( life style )

4. dapat mengawasi tingkah lakunya.

5. kesedaran

6. pengetahuan

sekadar pintar tidak mempengaruhi karakter. sekiranya anak sudah dapat menghayati dan menerima nilai-nilai Islam dalam diri mereka, secara sendiri nilai-nilai ini kan mempengaruhi karekter mereka. menghayati adalah sangat berbeza dengan memahami.

kemampuan menggunakan hal-hal yang telah dipelajari untuk menghadapi situasi- situasi baru dan nyata. ini bukan berkait rapat dengan keyakinan. tetapi berkait rapat dengan kecekapan untuk menerapkan apa yang telah diketahui. solat misalnya, anak boleh melakukan solat dengan baik bukan kerana dia suka dan yakin, tetapi kerana dia benar-benar memahami apa itu solat yang baik.

so whats important to be able to have excellent future khalifah is to first instill the belief and way of life with full understanding of the beauty of our lifestyle to be based upon AlQuran & Hadith, and once the character has been shaped beautifully, the rest are just a piece of cake.

lets not do it the other way around.

Insya Allah.

media. setakat manakah ketulenan berita yang disampaikan.

i came across this topic when reading an article in majalah i. keluaran sept 2010.

interview with Sheikh Omar Baloch from Furqan Institute of Quranic Foundation ( FIQE ).

He was in Malaysia for a lecture with the topic " The Islamic Views on Media ".

It has been bothering me for quite some time. i stop watching news from some local tv. its too obvious and obnoxious to watch a very one sided report in everything.

i am not pro or con to our government but we do appreciate some of the effort being made by our country leaders.

unfortunately for me the way it was brought out to our view, or shall i say thrust upon us was unacceptable and arrogant. it was always excellent for our leading party, but it was all the way bleak for the opposition.

we are human and tend to do right and wrong. you can't keep giving us a rosy picture of oneself and total disgrace of others. be fair and real and true because its all in the action. action do speak louder than words.

as for the media. you are responsible to give us news and story that we can depend on and authentic with a real integrity. stop being a dummy following orders and forgetting your true reason to be in this field.

as what sheikh omar has mentioned in his interview, the reporter/ media need to ensure that every news being reported are true because you are like the narrator of hadith, to deliver the truth for the future of civilization.

there's a need to put a fullstop to all this and we need to be able to rely upon the media to built a knowledgeable, fair and strong community and country.

Tony Blair reads Al Quran daily.

Masya Allah.

 i read on an article of Tony Blair in kosmo online here

Allah is Great. Blair thought that Al-Quran is a source for him to understand on a lot of things that's happening in the world today and he feels that Al-Quran contains valuable informations and guidance.

Subhanallah.

Let us all Muslim embrace Islam and have Al-Quran to be our guidance and Rasulullah SAW as our referrance.
