Are you ready to release a firestorm of success in your life? As 2006 comes to a close, do you hope and pray 2007 will be different? Better? More fulfilling?

If you do, I have good news. The secret to a fantastic new life is right between your ears. Don't believe me? Read on and find out.

Emile Coué, the French psychotherapist once said: "When the imagination and will power are in conflict, are antagonistic, it is always the imagination that wins, without any exception."

You can program yourself for success by understanding the power of imagination.

Imagination builds cities. Imagination makes dreams come true. Imagination will drive many to success, and you are a part of it. We know that imagination and rationalization don't go together so well.

When you dream, the right hemisphere of the brain and your subconscious mind are working and usually, you feel peace, you see compelling pictures and you hear beautiful sounds. Success is within your reach. But the problem is that the left hemisphere of the brain is also working and usually tells you "you can't do that" or "it's not for you" "You don't deserve it" "what if I tell my friends and family?" "You are crazy".

The truth is that you are unique and your contribution is important. You can make a difference and have success.

There are proven methods and techniques to program yourself for success. The only and necessary step to do that is to bypass your conscious mind. When done, your subconscious mind takes it over. You can freely dream and visualize yourself winning the game of life. By turbo charging your mind, you program yourself for success.

The three components to programming your mind are relaxation, visualization and affirmation.

1. Relaxation: the first key to mental programming for success.

As we start to relax our brain wave cycles start to slow down and our brain enters what is called the Alpha State in which the conscious mind has effectively fallen asleep, and our subconscious mind remains in control of our Autonomic Nervous System. During relaxation, the mind relaxes, the body unwinds. It is here where our thoughts slow down until they become so light they begin to float. It is here that we are able to restore, re-energize and empower ourselves and harness the power of the subconscious mind to help create long-lasting change. Alpha state is the gateway, the entry point that leads into the subconscious.

2. Visualization: the second key to mental programming for success.

Through relaxation you enter a state of creativity, essential for your success. You can induce new thoughts and new beliefs to your subconscious. You must hold the image of what you really want and act as if you already possess it. Remember, imagination rules your lives, frightens you, excites you or undermines you. Pictures can make you rich or poor, happy or sad. It's all up to you. Clear pictures, with rich details of what you really want, are critical factors to your success.

3. Affirmations: the third key to mental programming for success.

You can induce new thoughts and new beliefs to your subconscious by affirmations or suggestions. One of the power principles of the subconscious mind is the compliance principle meaning that part of the mind complies to where you direct it to go. In the book, the one minute millionaire" from Robert Allen and Mark Victor Hanson, one of the affirmations they encourage us to say is "I walk like a millionaire, I act like a millionaire, I am a millionaire." When you add intense feelings, it doubles or even triples the result. Really believe what you're inducing and watch the changes taking place around you.

Next, take action on any goals or plans the subconscious mind gives you. Remember, nothing happens without movement. Action is a key to lifelong success. And finally, be persistent. Many people give up on the above techniques because they don't get results right away.

That's not how life works. Nothing is instantaneous in nature, so don't expect it to be in your life either. Nature and life is a process with patience and persistence its keywords. Follow the steps above, keep doing them without fail, and magic will happen in your life.

You can program yourself for success. It's all about using the same tools and techniques that high achievers have used. Relax, visualize and affirm what you really want out of life. You can win and you deserve to win. It is reserved only for those who really want to go for it. Are you ready to take your personal and professional life to a whole new level?
