How to Get Anything You Want in Life…Part V

I wanna do a quick recap for those of you are new to this series.

In part I of this series I I talked about how there are 3 CRITICAL KEYS to getting anything you want in life:

1. A clear vision of what you want backed by a burning desire. In the last 3 posts in this series I talked about how to get that. (Links to those : write your vision, make a dream board, experience your vision).
2. Having an unshakable belief that you will make your goal happen.
3. Persistent and Consistent action towards your goal

Today I wanna talk about HOW to develop that unshakable belief. In my experience this was the HARDEST part for me in the beginning.

The fact is it took me YEARS before I was able to raise my belief level high enough to become financially free and successful in my own business.

I’m not trying to scare you, but show you that if I can do, I know you can too.

My situation was unique: I had ZERO business experience (physics nerd), very low self confidence when dealing with people, and LOTS of negative beliefs about wealth and success.

I had to read a lot of books and take a lot of action before my belief in my ability to succeed began to rise. I won’t wish the years of frustration and pain I went through on anybody. Having people constantly telling you to give up and that you can’t do it, doesn’t help either.

You see, belief is the missing key for MOST people. Part I of the equation, getting a clear vision of what you want is easy with a little effort. After all how hard is it to get excited and motivated about your dreams?

I mean come on, just think Tony Robbins seminars, Amway conventions. These people are VERY motivated about achieving their goals and dreams, they’ve got a burning desire. The real question is how many of them actually achieve their dream and goals?

WAY less than 1 percent of these people will ever become millionaires because they lack ONE key ingredient: BELIEF.

In the beginning I had to work VERY hard to get my belief level up, however once I hit that magical month where I made $10k profit in 1 month (Dec 2005) EVERYTHING changed at that point.

My belief level went through the ROOF because now I had tangible results to back it up. For the first time I really started to believe in ME. That belief fueled by a burning desire to quit my job gave me tremendous energy and focus.

I started taking massive action, and even though my profits dropped to $3k the following month I was able to quit my $90k/year job JUST 6 months later with money in the bank and having paid off $20k of consumer debt.

Each victory shot up my belief level and as my belief level rose I was able to achieve more victories.

Let me REPEAT that:

THE MORE I BELIEVED THE MORE I WAS ABLE TO ACHIEVE AND THE MORE I ACHIEVED THE MORE MY BELIEF LEVEL SKYROCKETED.

It’s an upward success spiral. It’s this spiral that allowed me to go from $20k in debt to a millionaire in just 18 months.

Once you get your belief level high enough to the point you achieve ONE major success (for me it was the $10k month) call it the catalyst, your belief level will skyrocket and you’ll be on that success spiral.

When you get there hold on because it will be the most AMAZING ride of your life.

Now some of you may be thinking “Amit, this success spiral thing is great, but how do I get my belief level high enough to hit that first catalyst?”

Glad you asked because there’s one specific technique I used that allowed me to consistently raise my belief level back when I was seeing no results and facing constant criticism and negativity.

I’ll reveal that in my NEXT post so stay tuned
