I have a friend that does a lot of work in the beginning stages of any project. He works like a maniac! The problem is that this only happens in the first few weeks of any project. Then he loses the motivation and drops it. His room (and mind) are filled with...

I only write when I’m inspired
A famous writer's quote is this one: "I only write when I'm inspired. Luckily, I am inspired at 9 o'clock every morning." We tend to wait for the muse to strike to do what we want. We only exercise when we feel like it. Or diet when we feel like it. Or do a specific...
Rules for new habits
Here's an interesting quote from William Walker Atkinson: "Remember this always—the best (and one might say the only) way in which old habits may be removed is to form new habits to counteract and replace the old undesirable ones. Form new mental paths over which to...
Your Will is your Freedom
We have thousands of different impulses during our day. Your body unconsciously sends you what it wants you to do. Maybe it's eating. Maybe it's going to the bathroom. Maybe it's moving your leg. Maybe screaming with someone. Whatever it is, it's an impulse your body...

Mind the gap
In the last email, we discussed the gap between your ideal self and your real self and how this can affect your overall mental health. But it can also be a way to improve your inner power, mainly by studying and observing what you do. What exactly do you do about this...
The neurosis gap
There is usually a gap between your ideal self and your real self. Between an ideal scenario, you have constructed in your head and where you currently are. Somewhere we would like to be but aren't. Fortunately or unfortunately, our mind will (almost) always...
Creating a Master Mind
Here's an interesting quote by William Walker Atkinson: "But, you may say, what do you mean by "The Master Mind?" What is the difference between a Master Mind and any other form of Mind? Simply this, good readers, that the Master Mind is consciously, deliberately, and...
Deep inner work
What we attract to our lives is deeply unconscious. It goes much deeper than what looks at first glance. If you think about it, certain things repeatedly happen in your life. You may not know how and may not want them, but they happen. Even if you try to prevent them,...
