Van Gogh said, "If you hear a voice within you say 'you cannot paint,' then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced." Your beliefs greatly affect your behaviors. When you identify what beliefs are holding you back and act in spite of them, your results will begin to change.

Did you know success— almost always— boils down to one thing?

And if you aren't willing to learn this, in its entirety, you will never claim it.

"It is the mind that maketh good of ill, that maketh wretch or happy, rich or poor." —Edmund Spenser

Your frame of mind dictates your reality.

Every single day, both men and women will test your frame of mind—measuring your self-belief—testing your role within the social hierarchy. That is not a pessimistic view of life.

In fact, it's quite the contrary.

Anything you ever wanted—and will want—is within your reach when you believe with conviction that you can achieve it. The Bible calls it faith. Sports psychologists call it confidence. Entrepreneurs call it determination.

The great E.E. Cummings said, "Once we believe in ourselves, we can risk curiosity, wonder, spontaneous delight, or any experience that reveals the human spirit.”

To be anything and everything you want to be, you must have a dominant frame of mind.

That is to say that you must believe it, regardless of contrary or unchanging conditions. This is the fundamental principle of attraction - not just in the pick up community. You must believe you capable of achieving a result without actually making it about achieving it. (e.g. focus on being attractive, not getting that one girl.)

When I need an example of a powerful frame of mind, I look towards Muhammad Ali. Here are some of his most famous quotes:

"If my mind can conceive it, and my heart can believe it—then I can achieve it."

"I am the greatest, I said that even before I knew I was."

"If you even dream of beating me you'd better wake up and apologize."

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” Ali demonstrated time and time again, that he was completely sold on his success. His hands were steady on the wheel of life. He had conviction--a firm unshakable belief in himself.

If your hands shake whenever someone tests you, you will always fall within another person's perception of reality. You are in unique place. You are alive and the world is your oyster. Develop the one the skill of unshakable belief, and carry with you the rest of your life, you will With this skill, your world view will always win out—and remember, in your world view, you are a KING.

When we believe something with enough emotional intensity, our mind will do everything in its power to reinforce it as our reality.

This one realization will empower you to take complete control of your life.
