day one of the plan for my future life

Just finished the first lesson of 21millionairesecrets.com

Essentially dream big dreams.

If I allow myself to imagine and fantasize about the kind of life I would like to live and the kind of money I would like to earn and have in my bank account, I generally start with babysteps. I give myself permission to allow better things to happen on a marginal basis, because they seem more plausible.

“You have to have a dream if you want to make a dream come true.”

Imagining that I have no limitations on what I can be, have, or do in life. I have all the time, all the money, all the education, all the experience, all the friends, all the contacts, all the resources and everything I need to achieve anything I want.

Practice “back from the future” thinking.

Project yourself forward five years in your mind's eye.

5 years from now, my perfect life includes my children around me on a regular basis. Our times together are very happy. We travel together, taking cruises, visiting interesting and fun places. My work is wherever I am - I write a lot and I love it. I also exercise my artisitic and creative mind. I earn millions. In the bank, I look like a lottery winner - there is literally millions in available cash and I have even more in assets. I have homes in my favorite places around the world. I have indoor pools, hottubs, outdoor pools, private tennis courts, squash courts, home theatres. I have good friends and family within reach at all times.

Dreaming big dreams improves your self-concept and increases your level of self-confidence. Dreaming increases your personal level of self-respect and personal happiness.

If I were absolutely guaranteed of success in any one thing in life, large or small, short term or long term, what would it be?

What one great thing would I dare to dream if I knew I could not fail?

If I knew I could not fail, I would be a real estate mogul - understanding how to work within the legal parameters to allow others to achieve their real estate dreams, all while creating my own wealth as well.

I would have begun at the beginning with a first investment property. I would have cleaned up my credit and debt load, using my current assets to finance a better future. I will have freed my self financially from my common-law spouse. I will be very in control of my finances, keeping impeccable records. I will have completed several unbelievably motivating and educational real estate courses. I will have used my current job situation to create my new lifestyle to the point that I no longer require to work there. I will have met someone who complements me beautifully, successful and well-managed in his own life, loves to travel with me, great with my kids and they think he's wonderful, creative and goal-minded. Paul and I would have long since separated and the separation would have proven to be mutually beneficial. His life has come together as well. All the things we both feared have beared no fruit and we have found our freedom has motivated us to be the people we were meant to be. My perfect life has morning and evening swims, wine in the evening on the deck, a lovely man to date,meals prepared for me and my children. My work and creative endeavours are well-received. I love to do things. I have better and better ideas every day. I'm positive, in love and I feel good. People are happy to know me and I am happy with how I am turning out.

Dreaming big dreams is the starting point of financial success

and becoming a self-made millionaire.
