And Now for Something Completely Different

This week’s podcast answers a need that a number of listeners have expressed to me - you (or, at least, they!) have asked to hear more about what owners of The Psychology of Success Online Program have to say about how their lives have been transformed by investing in themselves.

And, by investing in themselves, first of all, I mean investing time and energy in doing what’s right and, obviously, not doing what’s wrong!

The most important investment you can make in life is to invest yourself in the here and now. If you don’t and most people don’t, what kind of a return on investment do you think you’re going to get from investing nothing at all?

Midway through this episode, I make what I believe to be a crucial point:

All the good things in life that you would love to have - and more - come to you as a result of you being present in pivotal “nows” in your life. But you can’t be present in pivotal nows in your life if you’re not present in this one. How you turn up to this here and now determines how you will turn up to the next one.

But, let me quote from an Online Program Owner who puts the whole idea of turning up to the here and now so much better than I can:

“Living in the here and now has a ripple effect that impacts every aspect of my life”.

While we’re at it, let’s quote another Online Program Owner who sums up what life is all about:

“The main goal: Living Here and Now, Being Present, Enjoying Every Single Moment”

When you do that, life happens or, as we’ve said on many occasions here, again quoting Online Program Owners, “it just happens” and it’s effortless.

This flow just happens when you turn up and experience reality and all that that has to offer. It’s only your thinking mind has a grip on our sense of reality - loosen that grip…
