Offering A Warranty on Life

by Robert L. Gisel


"8. ENTHUSIASM. Geniuses are so excited about what they are doing, it encourages others to cooperate with them. Really believe that things will work out well. Don’t hold back." -- Dr Barrios


 Success in life is never guaranteed. Life doesn't come with a warranty that says,  "Play the game of life, satisfaction guaranteed." If someone finds this somewhere let me know as I want to buy an extended warranty. Still, we see some people make billions big and others never hit the high numbers. How does one get into life's preferred customer line? Can't just anyone be a genius?

"How does one get into
life's preferred customer line?
Can't just anyone be a genius?"

 Actually, anyone can. In Hollywood there are the wannabees and then there are the A-listers who made it. There are winners of the race and the almost rans. Some business ideas luck into viral popularity making the principals fast millionaires and others never get off the ground. Are they each just a better person than the rest? Is Nicholas Cage more genius than you? (It wasn't his fault that he is in financial ruin, it was bad direction from his financial manager.) The truth is, though, no one has a corner on the game of life to the exclusion of others, and anyone can arrive at the head of the line. Will is the way.

 Granted, any endeavor is a learnable skill and one must have sufficient knowledge or insight to create a winning combination. Assuming that one is studied in his craft or willing to crack the books to be skillful, there is still a factor critical to placing second or taking the gold.

 Here's the inside tip. The fabric of the universe forms an ace in the hole for anyone who would set their desires into motion. This oft overlooked factor, when one plays his cards right, can draw the appearance of Lady Luck. It is just an apparency, but nevertheless the difference between fool's gold and a rich strike is a doable stance that is not exclusively held by a chosen few. But how does one go from wish to fulfillment?

 It is not wishful thinking. The glee of careless thrust after hope has left many a man flat broke as surely as one can so easily lose it all on a single wager at the gaming tables. There is a false confidence that finds one having played the fool. There is also the genuine article that takes the courage of conviction with entuberance. Between the false and the real is the difference between success and failure. There is an attitude one must practice wherein lies the key.

 The fabric of the universe is an infinite quantity while not being a something at the same time. It is the life force that extends beyond the physical bounds. It is what delivers up our decisive commands. It functions for us out of love and not out of hate, and any negative begets the same.  Things happen from a state of enthusiasm where there will be no motion from a state of apathy. If you don't feel enthusiastic find something to be enthusiastic about. You can always play enthusiastic, get the idea of it and carry the air of excitement, until you genuinely are. Genuine enthusiasm is high enough emotionally to trump your cards. It is the ace in the hole, the joker that rounds out the hand.

"Genuine enthusiasm is high enough emotionally
to trump your cards."

 It is a known datum that when one makes a decision and goes into doingness on that plan the motion of the physical universe aligns. Unexpected help can materialize. Needed resources now become available and beneficial circumstances appear. This does not happen when you hold yourself back, so go forth freely and with confidence.

 Decide and do. Doing this from a confidently calm state the result is powerful. No doubts are permitted. Also, snarling anger may strike a blow but it won't be a winning combination in the long view. Be at peace now and concentrate on molding the future, but never dwell on the past. Push away thoughts of animosity and fill these instead with trust and good will. "Should have dones" or fault finding equally are anchors that stay any forward thrust; don't do it. Do the plan, effusively pursue your goals, and be a gracious host to success.

 In this way you can underwrite your own warranty on life.

Live With Desire

by Robert L. Gisel  

OPTIMISM. Geniuses never doubt they will succeed. 

Deliberately focus your mind on something good coming up.  

Dr. Barrios 

 A strong desire is the root necessity to get where you want. Wishful thinking falls short always. It takes the focus of one's will towards that which one most desires to arrive at the coveted prize.

 You could stand and look at fancy cars and wealthy homes and wish you had these but this does not get for yourself valued things. Even worse you could envy the person who has obtained things. Doubting that you could ever arrive at a high goal is the best assurance you will not arrive.

 The adage of the idle mind as the devil's playground is truer than you might think. If your mind turns at every corner you will end up in the slums when you were headed out for Beverly Hills. Things worth having are worth the effort to achievement.

"Things worth having 

are worth the effort to achievement."

 The easiest effort to exert is one's will. So focus plays a important part in manifesting your genius. Something good coming up may be something known to be happening, like an event or presentation or perhaps a holiday. When you put out the desire of achievement your mind will interface with the universe and in this light miracles have been known to happen. The more focus on the will to do the stronger the desire of achievement. It is not hard to focus the will and is a capability in anyone. It you are not used to doing this it only takes some practice.

 As the Olympic relay of the the torch to light the fire in the cauldron that signals the beginning of the games you can image carrying a torch as a reminder to keep your desires alive. Just put it on the mantle at night or you'll never get any sleep "doing" your project all through the night. Practice at keeping your desire ceaselessly strong will override any self doubts and distracting negative thoughts. The practice includes pushing any contrary thoughts out of play replacing them with the to will to succeed. When you have this the physical universe will be seen to align and provide support in some most unexpected ways.

  Let me know when you get there, as you will, if you do this well.
