What's Ahead?

Dear Friends,

I hope your Christmas was one for the memory book.

Ours was especially nice.

My cousin Jayvee (5 years old) singing some spanish Christmas eve...


We had a lot of fun spending the day together as a family, doing our "Secret Santa" gift exchanges. Being Catholic, it was really nice to take both Adriel Jr and Ashley to midnight mass (although they were both in and out of sleep the whole time LOL!:)

Anyways, a friend sent me personalized card through "snail mail" that I received December 26... it was through a unique service called Send Out Cards.

It's great when someone takes the time to send you a "physical" note of thanks, an update of their life or "just because" and not just some flashy, electronic email card.

Being in the service business, clients love it when I send them letters of encouraging words.

I picked up this quote from SOC (Send Out Cards), it's the law of attraction, here it is:

"You Deserve Exactly What You Send Out" Isn't that a neat quote?

So, please watch the entire video to fully understand this concept and tell me your thoughts about this unique service which is also tied in with a home-based "profit-center" opportunity.

You can learn all about it below:

Diabetes and Exercise

Brought to you by Attraction Tips eZine which can be subscribed to at www.adrielyapana.com.

By Adriel Yapana, CPT

There are two main types of diabetes, type I and type II. Type I
diabetes is characterized by the pancreas making too little or no
insulin. An individual with diabetes type I will have to inject
insulin throughout the day in order to control glucose levels. Type II
diabetes, also known as adult onset diabetes, is characterized by the
pancreas not producing enough insulin to control glucose levels or the
cells not responding to insulin. When a cell does not respond to
insulin, it is known as insulin resistance. When a subject is
diagnosed with type II diabetes, exercise and weight control are
prescribed as measures to help with insulin resistance. If this does
not control glucose levels, then medication is prescribed. The risk
factors for type II diabetes include: inactivity, high cholesterol,
obesity, and hypertension. Inactivity alone is a very strong risk
factor that has been proven to lead to diabetes type II. Exercise will
have a positive effect on diabetes type II while improving insulin
sensitivity while type I cannot be controlled be an exercise program.
Over 90% of individuals with diabetes have type II.

Exercise causes the body to process glucose faster, which lowers blood
sugar. The more intense the exercise, the faster the body will utilize
glucose. Therefore it is important to understand the differences in
training with type I and type II diabetes. It is important for an
individual who has diabetes to check with a physician before beginning
an exercise program. When training with a diabetic, it is important to
understand the dangers of injecting insulin immediately prior to
exercise. An individual with type I diabetes injecting their normal
amount of insulin for a sedentary situation can pose the risk of
hypoglycemia or insulin shock during exercise. General exercise
guidelines for type I are as follows: allow adequate rest during
exercise sessions to prevent high blood pressure, use low impact
exercises and avoid heavy weight lifting, and always have a supply of
carbohydrates nearby. If blood sugar levels get too low, the
individual may feel shaky, disoriented, hungry, anxious, become
irritable or experience trembling. Consuming a carbohydrate snack or
beverage will alleviate these symptoms in a matter of minutes.

Before engaging in exercise, it is important for blood sugar levels to
be tested to make sure that they are not below 80 to 100 mg/dl range
and not above 250 mg/dl. Glucose levels should also be tested before,
during, after and three to five hours after exercise. During this
recovery period (3-5 hours after exercise), it is important for
diabetics to consume ample carbohydrates in order to prevent
hypoglycemia.

Exercise will greatly benefit an individual with type II diabetes
because of its positive effects on insulin sensitivity. Proper
exercise and nutrition are the best forms of prevention for type II
diabetics. It is important for training protocols to be repeated
almost daily to help with sustaining insulin sensitivity. To prevent
hypoglycemia, progressively work up to strenuous activity.

As with individuals with type I diabetes, carbohydrates should also be
present during training to assist in raising blood sugar levels if the
individual becomes low.

How to fail at your fat loss and fitness goals in '07?

How to fail at your fat loss and fitness goals in '07?

Hi Gang!-

10+ year fitness expert and fat loss wizard Rob Poulos recently
received an email from someone who wanted to give him a piece of
his mind regarding his Fat Burning Furnace system, and was
reminded about perhaps the main difference between people that
succeed with their fat loss and fitness goals and those that
perpetually fail.

CLICK HERE

Before I tell you his answer, I'd like to let you in on some of
the other habits of those who regularly fail in their attempts
for lean and healthy body...Rob teaches his Fat Burning Furnace
students how to avoid these habits:

-They don't start today, they'll get to it tomorrow

-They are very strict about the diet or program they're on

-They punish themselves if they "cheat" on their diet

-They try to do everything themselves

-They evaluate their progress by the scale alone

-They blame their genetics on their poor results

OK, these are just some of the highly defective habits of people
that regularly fail with their fat loss and fitness goals.  Do
you see some of these habits in you?  If so, give yourself a
kick in the pants and get rid of them now...you will have a
tough time succeeding with these n.asty habits stuck to you.

Now, back to Rob's original message...this person that emailed
him told all about why his system won't work for her...she
metioned these reasons:

- She didn't have the money, and thought it was too much
- She already knew all about how to lose fat and gain muscle
- She told me she doesn't like getting stuff on the internet

...and more.  So guess what Rob told her.  He told her that if
she didn't think his system would work for her, then it
wouldn't.  He also told her the reasons she gave him have
nothing to do with Rob, but everything to do with her.

Rob doesn't know this person, but he can already tell she is
never going to succeed with her fat loss and fitness goals...all
she demonstrated to him and me is that she is good at coming up
with excuses to stay fat and unhealthy.

So that's the bottom line, this woman is a talker, a know it
all, not a doer.  and that's the real difference between people
who w.in and people who lose.  Until she becomes a doer, she can
forget about it w.inning.

You'd be surprised how many emails Rob tells me he gets with
this same tired old story of excuses.  But it's proof positive
that you need to flip on the switch in your head that gets you
off your duff if you're doing too much talking and not enough
doing.

So get out there and make it happen!

CLICK HERE

By the way, Rob's limited holiday release of The Fat Burning
Furnace proven fitness system is going great, and he's sold over
half of the available systems at the heavily discounted offer
with the triple garantee period.

Remember, on January 1st at midnight EST, the price will be back
up, and higher than before with the hardcopy version of the
system, so if you really want to be able to lose that stubborn
fat permanently, you'll want to check it out now...right here:

CLICK HERE

Happy Holidays,

Adriel Yapana

P.S. Don't forget you can do what a few of Rob's other students
are doing and give the FBF system as a gift this holiday season
to those you really care about.  What's better than the gift of
health and fitness for life?

A few seconds of prevention...

Hey Guys-

Be safe when out of town or at your local community...

Gone in four seconds...



Have a happy and safe holiday!

9 Ways on How to Be a Purposeful-Driven Weight Manager

Copyright 2006 Adriel Yapana

Whatever we learn to do, we learn by actually doing it. People come to be builders, for instance, by building, and harp players by playing the harp. In the same way, by doing just acts we come to be just. By doing self-controlled acts, we come to be self-controlled, and by doing brave acts we become brave.

-Aristotle
Nicomachaen Ethics


Look Hard At Yourself. Honestly appraise who you are, face your insecurities and your fears. Living honestly is a matter of implementing conscience, strengths, passion, wants and needs. Sometimes looking at yourself can be extremely painful but once you look hard, you can decide to change yourself. Spend some time in personal reflection, and ask “What is really motivating me to lose weight and how can I use this to give my life more purpose and meaning?” It may be because you want to have the strength and energy to play with you kids. It may be, you feel sluggish that you cannot even climb up a flight of stairs without gasping for air. Dig deep and capture your thoughts.


Write a Personal Mission statement. From the idea above. Write down your meaningful “WHY” behind your weight loss drive You can include your goals. Be specific and clear. Write down what you want on paper and keep this near you and read it often.

Be Committed. Successful weight managers make time to exercise and eat right because they are committed. It’s an excuse if you say “I don’t have the time” What your really saying is “I want to, but I don’t have the commitment.”

Listen Positively. You and I will get an “education” from the media whether you like it or not. You can, however, choose your noise. Make it a choice and listen to positive, educational and motivational sources through audio CD’s or books and make this a part of your life….even if it’s 15 minutes of your day. Listen while you drive in your car. You can get great audio sources from Success University by clicking HERE.

Get a Network that Works. Surround yourself with encouraging, action oriented group of people. People who are striving to meet a similar goals like yours. You can find a friend locally, join a weight loss center or maybe meet people through a discussion board or online group. Got it? Good!

Plan Your Nutrition. Make it a priority to eat for nourishment and not for pleasure. You’re your homework and make a grocery list of foods you intend to buy before you head out to the market. Keep a journal of your diet for at least 3 weeks when just starting your food “lifestyle” plan. Writing ingrains and makes conscious what you should and should not be putting in your mouth.

Drink Plenty Of Water. I run into clients who prefer to drink diet drinks and sodas but they will help their body and metabolism much better and effectively with just, good, clean water. You cannot drink enough of it.

You Can’t Do “Mouse or Couch Potato” Unplug your TV or Internet connection and get moving! Your calories don’t get burned up on their own…you must get active. Successful weight managers put extra movement activities like walking, hiking, dancing in their day.

Do You Get the Picture? “Picturing yourself” several times a day. I am a big believer in practicing the behavior you are trying to integrate into your life through mental movies. By visualizing and imagining your “preferred behavior of choice” bridges the conscious and subconscious mind. When people start committing themselves to mental rehearsals often enough, the pictures become a creative force in their own life. I’ve done this many times…and great things start happening in my life. It’s the law of attraction. I want you, however, to set a huge goal of visualizing your mental movie in segments of 20 seconds in length at least 100 times a day. This is approximately 20 minutes a day. You can spare 20 minutes a day can’t you? I guarantee you this idea alone will change your life!

You have that seed of greatness within you – make things happen!

Success in Weight Loss Has One Very Important Key

Brought to you by Adriel's Attraction Tips eZine which can be subscribed to at www.adrielyapana.com


By Adriel Yapana, Certified Fitness Professional

How many times have you tried to diet/lose weight in the past?

How many times have you had some initial success only to fall short of your goals?

How many times have you achieved your initial goals, only to see them fly away faster than you were able to enjoy the fruits of your labor?

Why does this happen?

In most cases, the answer is simple. You've failed one test... This is a difficult test. This test I like to call consistent persistence.

Sometimes, you will be missing other essential components. You need to also include a variety of other things that will make the consistent persistence useful. If you are consistently persistent in doing the wrong things, you will still fail. So before we get in to the final key, let's review the other essential components.

Successful dieting and or weight loss should always be geared towards a total lifestyle change that you intend to be permanent. If you cannot healthily sustain the changes for an indefinite period, it probably isn't the right diet for you. Reasonable exceptions would include medically necessary emergency weight loss, with a view to changing the program once the crisis management was concluded.

If you are trying to lose weight, you should have a goal of maintaining that weight loss for at least five years. How many of the fad diets out there today could withstand a five year test? Not many.

With the diet changes (that can be maintained for five or more years in a healthy fashion), it is essential to increase your energy expenditure.

You can increase this energy expenditure with a variety of strategies. Some of those include supplements that boost your metabolic rate. As we have seen with the ephedra issue, it isn't always the safest choice. A safer way is timing your activity to boost your energy expenditure throughout the day. One of those ways is to exercise early in the morning before eating, and then waiting for a period of time after having concluded your exercise before you eat. If you have blood sugar regulation difficulties such as diabetes or hypoglycemia, this may not be the route for you to take.

Additionally, because your body will accommodate to any exercise regimen after a period of time, you will need to vary your programs.

Water consumption at adequate levels is a must in any successful plan. This will help to wash away the waste products and toxins that the body will release as you burn away the fat (which does store some toxins).

Adequate supplementation with good quality vitamins and minerals is also very important so that your body has the micronutrients it needs to drive its metabolic processes.

Ensuring that your body does not think that it is in a state of famine is also important. While it is a good idea to decrease your overall caloric intake, you want to make sure that you feed you body on a regular basis, so that it knows that food is still available and is coming soon. Six small meals a day is generally a good idea. Your choice of calorie sources is also important. For many health reasons, it is good to avoid highly processed products. Vine ripened, organic produce is also a great idea.

Another way to help yourself succeed and give your body a greater variety of micronutrients and enzymes is to eat a large variety of foods. Our bodies haven't yet really adapted to the advent of agriculture, let alone a few monocrops. Variety, variety, and more variety is a great idea.

Ensure that your rest is adequate and of good quality. If you do not rest adequately, all of your body's processes can be adversely affected.

Take time for yourself. Meditate or pray. This will help you on so many different levels that there isn't enough time or space to go into it.

Set yourself reasonable, attainable goals with specific time frames. If you don't achieve them, reset the goals and review your plan. Maybe the goal was unrealistic or the plan was faulty. Entertain both possibilities. If you don't know how to tell, enlist professional help.

Measure your progress. Measuring in inches and energy is a better way to evaluate how you are doing rather than by pounds. Also very useful and a good measure of health factors, is to record how your body fat percentages change (for better or for worse).

So now you have the basic principles down. While a three month interval is a great way to look at progress points, if you stop there, you have failed. You need consistent persistence. At every goal point, re-evaluate your plan, refine it, work it and then repeat the process. If you need a holiday from your routine, schedule it, don't improvise or you are likely to fall out of the routine and have a difficult time getting back into it.

Work it, re-evaluate it, measure your progres, and repeat.

Consistent persistence is the key to your success. This success must also be built on sound principles and be realistic, sustainable and varied.

Don't let yourself be discouraged, keep at it and fight to maintain your consistent persistence because this is where success lives.

Dedicated to your success,

3 Things To Keep You In the Diet Winner Circle

Hey guys! It's Adriel here from Adriel Yapana.com with another Attraction Tip.


3 Things To Keep You In the Diet Winner Circle

Copyright 2006 Adriel Yapana

I saw the movie “Déja Vu” this weekend. What a thriller! I’m not going to spoil the movie for you , however, the movie had a theme about going back in time. Imagine if you could go back one week back. What would you do differently about your eating habits that would have put you in looking and feeling better about yourself today?

Here are 3 tips to help you stay on track with your diet goals.

• Plan your meals and “consume” your plan! Shop from a list. Cook foods in advance. Stick to your meal plan. Allow only a ten percent margin for “off plan eating”. That means, if you eat 5 meals a day, times 7 days a week, that’s 35 meals. That gives us 3.5 percent margin. That’s 3.5 percent of “off plan” meals/snacks allowed. Those “off plan” meals should be reasonable. I am not taking eating a whole pepperoni pizza at a single sitting.

• Watch those portions. Assuming that weight loss is the goal. You should be on a moderate to low carbohydrate food plan. Have a lean protein, fibrous carbohydrate and a starchy carbohydrate at each meal. Here’s a simple way to figure out how much of a portion size to eat at. First, gauge your portion size with your protein requirements. Men should eat a least one 6-8 ounce serving of complete, lean (order lean beef, take out the skin off the turkey or chicken and stay away from any type of meat too marbled in fat) protein at every meal. Your fibrous and starchy carbs should be about the same size at your lean portion requirement at every meal. Simple!

• Don’t eat like the “fast and furious”. Don’t eat on the run, while driving, or while watching television. Eat at a table or a designated, relaxed setting. Take your time to chew and help your body digest your food. Chew your foods several times before swallowing and simply enjoy the moment. Experience (taste, texture, tongue) what you eat is important and when you are eating, “be there”.

As you can see, keeping your diet in check does not have to be daunting. Enjoy your day and Bon appetité.

Stay in the Winner Circle!

How to Maintain a Healthy Weight Free Yourself from Calling Foods "Good" Or "Bad"

A survey I once read asked: Do you see apples, carrots and wheat bread as "good" foods, while hamburger, fries, cake and chocolate as "bad" foods?" If you agree, you're definitely not alone -- over 70% of Americans categorize food this way.

With the many kinds of foods and snacks out there, and one may have certain nutritional values than the other, it doesn't mean that it's "good" for you food. I believe that all foods can fit in your life and work for you. Call it a healthy lifestyle not a diet, because it all comes does to having moderation. Learn to portion control your foods. Examples would be bag half of your order or restaurant meal and save it for tomorrow's lunch. Take time to really learn food portion without measuring units, eye balling food sizes.

Some examples: 1/3 cup of rice is equivalent to a size of a golf ball, a 3-ounce piece of lean mean is a size of a deck of cards and half a cup of chopped fruit is about the size of a tennis ball.

Next time you handle your groceries and put them away -quietly ask yourself "Is this currently ingrained in your mind as a "bad" or "good" food? What led you to that belief? What experiences - friends, family and their current "fad" diet? Look out for garbled messages. Ask yourself "What would my grocery bag appear like if I chose foods that are satisfying to me?

Take a minute - just for today and pay attention to the number of times you called your own food choices. Ask yourself if there was something instantly "bad" or "good" about the food, or is it the environment you're in that makes it the "right" choice for you? In the future, let the combination of your physiology (physical hunger), the joy of eating and health all handle your choice. Say to yourself "I can enjoy all my favorite foods in moderation."

With YOU in Mind,

Geovanni Derice, a Top-Notch, NYC Fitness Professional interviewed by Adriel Yapana for Adriel's Attraction Tips eZine which can be subscribed to at www.adrielyapana.com



(Geovanni and I in Midtown Manhattan)




YAPANA: Hi Geo! First off, thank you for taking time to anwser some questions for the Attraction Tips eZine. This will be a brief interview. I want to cover a couple of key points about your services and about what to look for when seeking a trainer.

DERICE: My pleasure Adriel.

YAPANA: Do you have a fitness market niche?

DERICE: Actually I do Adriel. I specialize in working with busy women between the ages of 21 and 60 who have very little time to workout but want to look and feel better than they've ever felt or looked before, all in the comfort of their own home. In the time we're living in, who has time to wait for a cardio machine for 60 minutes or even take an hour commuting to and from the gym. If you look at that alone that's already 2 hours. I don't know about you but the people I work with don't have 2 hours to waste, thus why I do what I do.

YAPANA: What should someone look for in a personal trainer and why?

DERICE: To be honest there's been a recent buzz about people hiring personal trainers who are no where near qualified to work with people. If you're looking for a personal trainer, there are some very important questions you need to know. Number one is are they certified and if they are by who. The top certification organizations out there for personal trainers are National Strength and Conditioning Association(NSCA), National Academy of Sports Medicine(NASM), the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM), and also American Council of Exercise(ACE). I'd pretty much stick to the first three if I was recommending someone pick a personal trainer. Another issue is insurance. Is your trainer covered. Trainers who work for a gym is often covered by the gym, but trainers who are independant contractors often have to provide their own insurance. Lastly you want to know who has the personal trainer worked with and does he have a portfolio or a book of testimonials proving that people have worked with him and are not only satisfied with the services that the trainer provided, but are blown away. Some trainers will post testimonials of people just in general and that can be fine but if they provide emails or ways to contact those people in the testimonials that in itself adds credibility.

YAPANA: If you want to give someone advice (general population) a
kick-start to a healthier lifestyle, what advice would you gives them?

DERICE: The best advice I could give them is to just get started. Do not wait for the perfect situation to start making a change. Many will wait till January 1st to change their lifestyle or others wait till Monday to start a new lifestyle. Forget that, take control of your life right now. If you start now you could lose 8 lbs before New Year's is even here. Some other great tips is hiring a qualified personal trainer to help jump start your fitness program and create a foundation. Have a diary where you can write that the way you feel when you eat and how you feel about your workouts. Lastly have a support group. Having people who will encourage you, motivate you to succeed is extremely important. You can find people just like you online in fitness forums, message boards or even ask your trainer to set one up for you. There's just countless tips that you can use to jump start your healthy lifestyle but it all begins with the mindset that you want to get it done and get it done now. Life is too short, it really is and when you decide today, right now to change it, you won't regret it.

YAPANA: Thanks Geo, is there anything else you'd like to say or share with the audience?


DERICE: Well, I would like to truly say that things have to change in the world. The world is getting bigger and bigger and it's pretty sad. To think that many children will grow up, get married and not have their parents at their wedding because of heart diseases that could have been preventable is truly sad. I'm on a mission to make people happy again and that starts from within. It starts by making the commitment to change the way you think. Changing the way you are on the inside will drastically change the way you look on the outside. If anyone would like to read more about me, the best thing you can probably do for your life would be to go to www.4evertoned.com/newsletter.html
That's where I share my insider tips to success and I really want for everyone reading this to have the opportunity to achieve their absolute best. I hope Adriel you bring me back on here so we can continue to help people achieve bodies beyond their wildest dreams.

Q: I still need to lose those extra 10 pounds from having my baby 16 months ago but really I am at an age (nearing 30) that I am concerned less about appearance and more about my overall health. Old fashion methods are great...Now I just need some old fashion motivation! I'm getting there!

I want to be around for the long haul with my kids. School, house, husband, kids...life is just too fast and I have NO time really to do anything but term papers and reading! BUT I will be finishing up my Master's degree in May and want to really start focusing on my health. Right now I know I need help figuring out what that means for me. I wasn't sure really what it is you do. I just know your passions are in the area of health.

A:
What you have are some wonderful goals. You may need to spend more time and ask yourself "why is this goal so important to me?".

If appearance is not much of a concern then you should work on functional fitness training. This means training with a purpose... one that should take a positive effect on the activity of one's life. Conditioning for everyday life; carrying kids or lifting boxes, turning wrenches, pushing a wheel barrel or anything else applicable to your daily life or work environment.

Many women, like yourself, lack motivation or just don't like to go to the gym or go for a run (Are you an exercise-hater?)

You can work out everyday without lifting dumbbells or jogging. How do you do this? Movement. Walking to the stores, play a game of tag with your kids, put on some music and dance, skip elevators and take the stairs instead. The key is to get 40-50 minutes of activity every day. Think: some form of movement everyday:)


Keep on keepin' on!

Are you mature....

Spiritually?

copyright 2006 Adriel Yapana

There are two steps to spiritual maturity.

The first step to spiritual maturity is accepting where you are, who you are and what you are, as perfect, right here, right now.

If you’re feeling miserable, surrender yourself and accept that life is perfect. Situations have happened in your life for a reason and it serves you. Let me repeat that. Situations have happened in your life for a reason and it serves you. Embrace it.

Be open to accept that YOU MAY HAVE NOT BECOME THE PERSON YOU NEEDED TO BE in order to attract the things you wish into your life.

So, to have more in your already perfect life, you simply need to change.

Naturally, the second part is easy. You can be, do and have those results you are seeking by choosing different actions. And since the universe knows you are open to listen, answers will start flowing your way.

By re-creating yourself through your actions… you create your own destiny.

Live fully alive,

4. We are like magnets - like attract like. You become AND attract what you think.

5. Every thought has a frequency. Thoughts send out a magnetic energy.

6. People think about what they don't want and attract more of the same.

7. Thought = creation. If these thoughts are attached to powerful emotions (good or bad) that speeds the creation.

14. EVERYTHING in your life you have attracted .. accept that fact .. it's true.

15. Your thoughts cause your feelings.

16. We don't need to complicate all the "reasons" behind our emotions. It's much simpler than that. Two categories .. good feelings, bad feelings.

17. Thoughts that bring about good feelings mean you are on the right track. Thoughts that bring about bad feelings means you are not on the right track.

18. Whatever it is you are feeling is a perfect reflection of what is in the process of becoming.

19. You get exactly what you are FEELING.

20. Happy feelings will attract more happy circumstances.

21. You can begin feeling whatever you want (even if it's not there).. the universe will correspond to the nature of your song.

22. What you focus on with your thought and feeling is what you attract into your experience.

23. What you think and what you feel and what actually manifests is ALWAYS a match - no exception.

24. Shift your awareness.

25. "You create your own universe as you go along" Winston Churchill

26. It's important to feel good ( ( ( (((good))) ) ) )

29. Life can and should be phenomenal .. and it will be when you consciously apply the Law of Attraction.

30. Universe will re-arrange itself accordingly.

31. Start by using this sentence for all of your wants: "I'm so happy and grateful now that…. "

32. You don't need to know HOW the universe is going to rearrange itself.

33. LOA is simply figuring out for yourself what will generate the positive feelings of having it NOW.

34. You might get an inspired thought or idea to help you move towards what you want faster.

35. The universe likes SPEED. Don't delay, don't second-guess, don't doubt..

37. You will attract everything you require - money, people, connections.. PAY ATTENTION to what's being set in front of you.

38. You can start with nothing .. and out of nothing or no way - a WAY will be provided.

39. HOW LONG??? No rules on time .. the more aligned you are with positive feelings the quicker things happen.

40. Size is nothing to the universe (unlimited abundance if that's what you wish) We make the rules on size and time.

41. No rules according to the universe .. you provide the feelings of having it now and the universe will respond.

42. Most people offer the majority of their thought in response to what they are observing (bills in the mail, being late, having bad luck…etc..)

43. You have to find a different approach to what is through a different vantage point.

44. "All that we are is a result of what we have thought" - Buddha

52. Feel the joy .. feel the happiness :o )

53. An affirmative thought is 100 times more powerful than a negative one.

54. "What this power is, I cannot say. All I know is that it exists." Alexander Graham Bell.

55. Our job is not to worry about the "How". The "How" will show up out of the commitment and belief in the "what."

56. The Hows are the domain of the universe. It always knows the quickest, fastest, most harmonious way between you and your dream.

57. If you turn it over to the universe, you will be surprised and dazzled by what is delivered .. this is where magic and miracles happen.

58. Turn it over to the universe daily.. but it should never be a chore.

59. Feel exhilarated by the whole process .. high, happy, in tune.

60. The only difference between people who are really living this way is they have habituated ways of being.

61. They remember to do it all the time.

62. Create a Vision Board .. pictures of what you want to attract .. every day look at it and get into the feeling state of
already having acquired these wants.

63. "Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life's coming attractions." Albert Einstein.

64. Decide what you want .. believe you can have it, believe you deserve it, believe it's possible for you.

65. Close your eyes and visualize having what you already want - and the feeling of having it already.

66. Focus on being grateful for what you have already .. enjoy it!! Then release into the universe. The universe will manifest it.

67. "Whatever the mind of man can conceive, it can achieve." W. Clement Stone

68. Set a goal so big that if you achieved it, it would blow your mind.

69. When you have an inspired thought, you must trust it and act on it.

70. How can you become more prosperous?? INTEND IT!!

71. "Checks are coming in the mail regularly"… or change your bank statement to whatever balance you want in there… and get behind the feeling of having it.

72. Life is meant to be abundant in ALL areas.

73. Go for the sense of inner joy and peace then all outside things appear.

74. We are the creators of our universe.

75. Relationships: Treat yourself the way you want to be treated by others .. love yourself and you will be loved.

76. Healthy respect for yourself……

77. For those you work with or interact with regularly .. get a notebook and write down positive aspects of each of those people.

78. Write down the things you like most about them (don't expect change from them). Law of attraction will not put you in the same space together if your frequencies don't match.

79. When you realize your potential to feel good, you will ask no one to be different in order for you to feel good.

80. You will free yourself from the cumbersome impossibilities of needing to control the world, your friends, your mate, your children….

81. You are the only one that creates your reality.

82. No one else can think or feel for you .. its YOU .. ONLY YOU.

83. Health: thank the universe for your own healing. Laugh, stress free happiness will keep you healthy.

84. Immune system will heal itself.

85. Parts of our bodies are replace every day, every week..etc… Within a few years we have a brand new body.

86. See yourself living in a new body. Hopeful = recovery. Happy = happier biochemistry. Stress degrades the body.

87. Remove stress from the body and the body regenerates itself. You can heal yourself.

88. Learn to become still .. and take your attention away from what you don't want, and place your attention on what you wish to experience.

89. When the voice and vision on the inside become more profound and clear than the opinions on the outside, then you
have mastered your life.

90. You are not here to try to get the world to be just as you want it. You are here to create the world around you that you choose.

91. And allow the world as others choose to see it, to exist as well.

92. People think that if everyone knows the power of the LOA there won't be enough to go around. This is a lie that's been ingrained in us and makes so many greedy.

93. The truth is there is more than enough love, creative ideas, power, joy, happiness to go around.

94. All of this abundance begins to shine through a mind that is aware of it's own infinite nature. There's enough for
everyone. See it. Believe it. It will show up for you.

95. So let the variety of your reality thrill you as you choose all the things you want and get behind the good feelings of all your wants.

96. Write your script. When you see things you don't want, don't think about them, write about them, talk about them, push against them, or join groups that focus on them… remove your attention from don't wants.. and instead place them on DO wants.

97. We are mass energy. Everything is energy. EVERYTHING.

98. Don't define yourself by your body .. it's the infinite being that's connected to everything in the universe.

99. One energy field. Our bodies have distracted us from our energy. We are the infinite field of unfolding possibilities. The
creative force.

100. Are your thoughts worthy of you? If not - NOW is the time to change them. You can begin right where you are right now. Nothing matters but this moment and what you are focusing your attention on.

Have an Unforgettable Day!

An Interview...One-On-One with Fitness Professional, Micah Blu

Micah Blu interviewed by Adriel Yapana for Adriel's Attraction Tips eZine which can be subscribed to at www.adrielyapana.com

One-On-One with Fitness Professional, Micah Blu



YAPANA: Micah, I think you're one of the best
trainers at 24 Hour Fitness (Glendale, CA). I know my readers would love
to know more about you and your training philosophy so let's get
right into this interview. Do you have a niche fitness market?

BLU: I try not to categorize myself. I have clients
who want to lose weight, I also train clients who want to gain muscle.
I think it's best to have diversity because that leaves you open to more
opportunities to help people. Of course the bulk of
most clients will want to lose weight, that's the
general population. However, there is a growing niche
that I personally see with my clients and they are
skinny guys who are wanting to add muscle. There are
many training techniques and macro nutrient ratios
that I use to help people on both sides.

YAPANA: What should someone look for in a personal trainer and why?

BLU: I think someone should look for is someone who is
certified and experienced. I think second, and maybe most important
of all, is to look for someone you can tolerate for an
extended amount of time and hopefully enjoy their
company. Any personal training goal, unless it's
minor, is going to take some time, maybe months, so
it's important that you "want" to come to your
appointments. One of the mistakes I see a lot of
trainers make is, there with their clients and they
are not having fun. And nobody wants to go to a place,
especially after a stressful day to another stressful
place. That's not fun. So I try to make it fun. They
should see someone with a personality that's fun.

YAPANA: I often see that attitude from other trainers,
I totally agree with you. I think an enlightening personality is great
and if you can make your clients smile thats even
better. Okay, now back to muscle building. What do you
think makes a good muscle-building program?

BLU: First, if a person is de-conditioned, We have to
address muscle imbalances, work on flexibility and
core stabilization, we will also address joint issues.
Then, if their goal is to put on mass. There are a lot
of techniques that can be used, for the most part it's
going to take a lot of hard work lifting heavy but not
too heavy and allowing your body to adapt to the
overload you also have to eat a sufficient amount of
calories to build and in the right ratio of protein,
carbs and fat.

YAPANA: I think it's definitely important to get on a
good food plan. What you recommend to someone who is trying to muscle build?

BLU: You want to get 1 to 1.5 grams per pound of
bodyweight. And 3 grams of carbohydrate per pound of bodyweight, but
bottom line you have to take in more calories. Let's say a person maintains
their weight at 2500 calories on training days, they
are going to need to take an extra 500 to 1000 more
calories on their those days to build the extra
muscle. Also they have to be clean calories, so
staying away from highly processed foods,( those
having a high glycemic index such as most sweets and
foods that come in a bag like chips, also fried and
greasy foods should be avoided.

YAPANA: What type of equipment do you like to use on
your one-on-one training workouts?

BLU: Again, depending on their goal. There's a really
huge range of exercises. I like to mix it up
including exercises like jump roping and cable
machines, tube resistance and Free weights. I also
like to incorporate less common styles like
plyometrics and pilates.

YAPANA: If you give someone advice, the general
population, a kick-start a healthier lifestyle, what advice would you gives them?

BLU: The first step is they need to make changes to
their diets. By eating better they can feed their bodies the proper
fuels to start with. Once you get those changes, maybe start out with some
cardio. I do recommend that if you have never worked out before, do
meet with a personal trainer just to learn some basics and make
sure your performing the exercise in proper form and
to make sure you don't put yourself at risk of injury,
Also you don't want to plant bad habits from the
get-go. If you can't afford a personal trainer,
usually most places like 24 Hour Fitness will let you
meet with a personal trainer, one session free as a
general introduction and if that's out of the
question, try to find someone you know who knows there
way around and buddy up with them.

YAPANA: One last question before we wrap this up. What
goes through your mind when training a client?

BLU: I'm constantly watching my client's bodies and
also their faces, to see how there reacting to the
training. I always want to make sure they aren't in
bad form or putting themselves at risk. At the same
time I'm constantly gauging rather or not they are
being challenged because they definitely need to be!

YAPANA: Micah, I think you are a superior trainer and
I want to thank you for taking the time to do this interview. How can
my readers contact you and learn more about your services?

BLU: It was my pleasure Adriel. Your readers can reach

message "ADRIEL'S NEWSLETTER". I will respond to those

CNN LARRY KING LIVE

The Power of Positive Thinking

Aired November 16, 2006 - 21:00 ET

THIS IS A RUSH TRANSCRIPT. THIS COPY MAY NOT BE IN ITS FINAL FORM AND MAY BE UPDATED.


(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
LARRY KING, CNN HOST (voice-over): Tonight, want to find true love, make more money, have the life of your dreams? Then think about it. That's right. The power of your thoughts can improve your life. Sound unthinkable? Well, science says there's something to it, so engage your brain for an amazing hour that could transform your world and help you live happily ever after.

It's all next on LARRY KING LIVE.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

KING: Welcome to the second in our series of how to go beyond the power of positive thinking and use it to change your life. Since last week's show was such a success, we decided to dive right back into the topic tonight with a different set of guests. They'll tell us how we can use the power of your imagination and mind to create what we want in our lives and how science supports it.

Our guests are: James Ray, President and CEO of James Ray International, a multimillion dollar corporation dedicated to teaching individuals to create wealth in all areas of their lives. That's financially, relation wise, intellectually, physically and spiritually.

Jack Canfield, the famed originator of the "Chicken Soup for the Soul" series of books. It sold over 100 million copies. Jack was one of the earliest champions of peak performance. And, he's the co- author of "Dare to Win, the Power of Focus," and his latest, "The Success Principles, how to get from where you are to where you want to be."

Dr. Joe Vitale is president of Hypnotic Marketing, Inc. and the founder and president of the Hypnotic Marketing Institute. Joe is also an ordained minister, a certified metaphysical practitioner and a certified hypnotherapist.

Dr. George Pratt, chairman of psychology at Scripps Memorial Hospital in La Jolla, California and co-author of "Instant Emotional Healing."

And, finally, Jayne Payne therapist, social worker and licensed chemical dependence counselor.

We begin with James Ray. What is the law of attraction? JAKMES RAY, CEO, JAMES RAY INTERNATIONAL: Well, Larry, science tells us that every single thing that appears to be solid is actually energy. Your body is energy. Your car is energy, your house, everything, money, all of it is energy.

You put it under a high-powered microscope it's nothing more than a field of energy and a rate of vibration and like vibrations are attracted to each other and dissimilar vibrations repel. So, the law of attraction says when you're in a certain vibration you're going to attract to you that which you're in vibration or harmonic vibration with.

KING: Jack Canfield, do you accept that?

JACK CANFIELD, ORIGINATOR OF "CHICKEN SOUP FOR THE SOUL" SERIES: Yes, I just basically say the law of attraction says like attracts like. So, if you want to be successful you need to come from a place of vibrating that you're successful. You need to be thinking about the successes you already have.

If you want to attract more money you need to be thinking abundantly, so even though you might only be making $40,000 a year you want to be focusing on your gratitude for that coming from a state of abundance.

And then what happens is you'll attract more abundance to you. If you're talking all the time about what you don't want or how bad it is, then what you're going to attract is more how bad it is.

KING: Is this science, Joe?

JOE VITALE, HYPNOTIC MARKETING INSTITUTE: It sure is on a fundamental level whatever you focus on you get more of. If you're focusing on lack, you're going to get more lack. If you focus on abundance, you're going to get more abundance.

I tell people find something in your life right now to be grateful for because at that point you will start to attract more things to be grateful for. It's absolutely workable, testable science.

KING: Can you really, Dr. Pratt, make your own happiness? I mean let's say you go downstairs and your car has just been hit. You can't be happy that minute.

DR. GEORGE PRATT, SCRIPPS MEMORIAL HOSPITAL: You can't control external circumstances. All you can do is balance yourself so that if something traumatic happened we want to teach people how to balance themselves very rapidly. So, shifting it to the positive allows you to actually change your life.

KING: Jayne, you deal in chemical dependency, right?

JAYNE PAYNE, THERAPIST: Yes.

KING: How can you do this if you're depressed? PAYNE: Well depression...

KING: Bipolar.

PAYNE: Bipolar, bipolar is a phenomena that has long been said it needs medication and I'm not going to argue with that. However, they have done scientific research that shows that depression is anger turned inward. And, anger usually come from unresolved issues.

And so, what I like to do with someone that comes to me that's depressed, I tell them "Focus on the point of reference in your life that's positive and look at what caused that positive effect." And then they have something tangible to work with.

KING: James are we always all day long attracted or not attracted to things? Is this a constant "I like that, I don't like this, I want this, I don't want that?"

RAY: We are. I mean we're consistently attracting. I mean every single thing you have in your life right now you're either in resonance with it or, if it's not in your life, you're not in resonance with it.

If you want to create anything you want, anything you desire, you have to practice what I call going three for three. Your thoughts, your feelings, and your actions all need to be firing simultaneously and in alignment. When you go three for three, you're absolutely unstoppable. You can create anything you want.

KING: Jack, do we create our own positive negatives?

CANFIELD: I do believe that. I think we're constantly creating whatever comes into our life and if you focus on what you want, as Joe said earlier, you get what you want. If you focus on what you don't want, you get more of that.

And we often think we're focusing on something like saying "I don't want to be overweight anymore." But what we're focusing on is overweight anymore. So, we have to state it in a more positive way.

And when we do that what happens is our mind and our emotions follow our thoughts and then our behaviors follow our emotions. I choose to make myself happy. Abraham Lincoln said back in 1865 happiness is a choice and the fact is it really is.

KING: True, Joe, if your house burns down it's how you react to your house burning down?

VITALE: No, I'm going to disagree with a couple of the things said here.

KING: Good.

VITALE: Oh, you like this. Well, I'm going to disagree because I believe that you are attracting everything, every little thing, the car accident, everything that you could name but we're doing it on an unconscious level. We're not aware of it.

KING: I attracted my own car accident?

VITALE: You absolutely did. We are attracting everything unconsciously. That's why we have to read the books, like Jack's books or Jayne's books or my books so that we can begin to wake up.

We can begin to take conscious control of what we've been doing unconsciously. At this point, we want to start looking at why did I attract it? Yes, you can put a positive spin on why you attracted it but I'm saying you did attract it.

KING: What, Dr. Pratt, is the law of vibration?

PRATT: The law of vibration is -- reflects a certain harmony or being in sync with something. You've heard of that phrase, "You're on my frequency." Everything has a frequency and, if we go to super string theory, everything is little vibrating packets of energy. So, we have a frequency.

KING: Let me get a break.

Up next, you can't get what you want in life until you know what you want in life. We've got some simple advice that can help you put together your personal wish list when LARRY KING LIVE continues.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

RAY: The universe states, there's a law in your universe that says the more you give the more you get or receive. This is true in your finances, no or yes?

I really wasn't a great student in school. I was one of those individuals who always wanted to get out and do something.

Let me tell you something about real wealth. We're going to discuss that a lot this evening because I can guarantee you this. You might go after the money and get rich. It doesn't mean you're going to be wealthy.

I got hit head on by a car in the late '90s and it just totally changed my life, late '80s I should say. It just totally changed my life because I had to step back and realize that, you know, the physical body could be taken out in an instant.

And so I started looking at things a lot differently. It was a real significant emotional event for me.

Your one purpose on this planet, one purpose on this planet, is to grow. That's it.

There's never been a time in my life where I didn't feel like the most important thing was to understand the laws of the universe and how things worked and how they applied to body, mind, and spirit.

You see I've been talking about quantum physics for over a decade and most people in the audience have drool running. They're like what? And now, now people are opening their minds.

And what I realize is that no matter where you are in life challenges are a part of life and to think otherwise is illusion. It really is. You know we always have challenges in life and the bigger the game you play, the bigger the challenges.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

RAY: Every great tradition has told you that you were created in the image and the likeness of the creative source. That means that you have got potential and power to create your world and you are. You are. And maybe you've created things to this point that are wonderful and worthy of you and maybe you haven't.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

KING: Jayne Payne, are you agreeing with what's been said so far?

PAYNE: Yes. One of the interesting things I found working with clients that come to me, usually I get clients that aren't manifesting what they want in their life. That's why they're seeing me.

And one of the things I look at is they're operating out of unresolved issues, particularly of abandonment. And so once I work through the grief process of those issues, what I find is a lot of people the reason they're not attracting what they want in their life is they're operating out of need.

If they'd operate out of want and desire, then they would get what they want. So, I talk about and I have them focus a lot of desire, belief, and then expect it to happen.

KING: Jack Canfield, how do we find out what we want in life? That may sound ridiculous but a lot of people probably don't know.

CANFIELD: Well, there are a number of ways but one of the ways that I like to start with my clients is what I call create an irritation list. Go through your house, your apartment, your office, your garage, list down everything that isn't exactly the way you want it and that tells you what you're not satisfied with.

Now you take it from that level to what she was just talking about and turn it into the vision of what you would like to have. I want that door to close without it slamming. I want the picture not to do this. I want it to be straight, you know. I want my people in my office to be positive.

KING: Some people might take a month with an irritation list.

CANFIELD: Well, you know, usually about two hours you can get it done. Then you go through and you create the opposite so you know what you want. And then what you have to do is schedule time to go ahead and do it.

Like I say if you take a weekend and just handle all the little things and why is this important? Most of us are talking about our big vision, our big goals, world peace, things like that, becoming a millionaire.

But, if you don't handle the little irritations and you settle for them what happens is you go into subtle resignation, "I can't have what I want" and you have to numb out your awareness to see it. And then you numb out that little kid inside that says "Wow, I can have everything."

KING: Joe, how do you clear out negative self talk?

VITALE: One of my favorites is to become a loving detective of your own mental activity. So, in other words, thoughts are going through our brains right now. They're going through yours. They're going through mine. They're going through your listeners, the watchers, all of this.

Some are positive. Some are negative. What you want to do is start to notice which ones are the ones that make you feel good and you want to reach for the thoughts that feel good. You start to go in the direction of having more of those.

And, going back to my earlier statement fundamental law and psychology you get more of whatever you focus on. Focus on the positive thoughts and those negative ones are going to start to drop away or you won't pay attention to them as much.

KING: In a moment, we'll take a question from the audience.

But, James, what are the five areas you focus on?

RAY: I've coined something I call harmonic wealth and harmonic wealth has five key pillars, financial, relational, intellectual, physical, and spiritual. You see I talk to people all the time who have one, two, maybe three of those and they still feel unfulfilled. A true state of wealth is a state of harmonic wealth and when you're there you're really, really wealthy.

KING: Let's take a question from members of our studio audience who are with us today. Let's go to C.J. Minster (ph) -- C.J.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Thank you. In light of the general inflexibility in the U.S. workforce how is it possible to plan for a family while planning your career path?

KING: Who wants to grab that?

CANFIELD: Well I think the underlying assumption is what we call either/or. I can either have this family or I can have work. And, if you take the position you can have both and make that your goal, make that your vision, start visualizing that that's what you want, believing you can have it, creating the vibration of what it would be like imagining having a perfect integrated life of fulfillment at work and fulfillment at home.

And, if you do that, then what will happen is your unconscious will begin to come up with the ideas, the ways to create that. You'll attract to you the work opportunities, the resources, the right boss, whatever it is to do that. So the main thing is the assumption is wrong.

KING: Do all of you agree with the concept of visualization?

CANFIELD: Yes.

VITALE: Absolutely. That's a powerful thing.

CANFIELD: The mind thinks in pictures.

VITALE: I would add to it though, I don't think visualization by itself is quite enough that a lot of people are using mental imagery and they are getting some results, not always the results that they want, not always as fast as they want.

I have written about this. I have said that you have to add feeling to it. So, in other words, when you're visualizing that you're in this new car or in your Maui home or whatever it happens to be, you don't just see the picture of it and you don't see just you in the picture.

You see yourself experiencing it as if it's right now. You feel it. You see it. You live it. When you do that you accelerate the manifestation process. You go way beyond positive thinking.

KING: What's a positive affirmation, Jayne.

PAYNE: A positive affirmation is something that you usually tell yourself every day and I usually do it visually with my clients. I have them do poster boards and I have them map out where they want to go.

And I have them actually physically cut out pictures and I put them on the board, have them put them on the board and they look at them daily and they affirm to themselves daily. "This is what I want. This is where I'm going to go." And then I have them take it a step further. I have them take it to where what will it feel like when you get there?

CANFIELD: Kids do this naturally. My son when he wanted a surfboard all of a sudden his whole wall was covered with surfboard pictures.

VITALE: Yes. Yes.

CANFIELD: They naturally do this. And then somehow we get talked out of it as we grow up as adults and we stop doing it.

PRATT: Besides adding the emotion which is so important to add all five sensory channels is extremely powerful. We know this from the Soviet studies on enhanced performance. The brain can't really tell the difference between a real event and a highly-imaged experience.

KING: Coming up -- let me get a break and we'll be right back. Unlucky in love, our panel has some great advice on how to trade Mr. Wrong for Mr. Right or Ms. Wrong for Ms. Right when LARRY KING LIVE continues.

CANFIELD: Events plus responses equal outcomes and if you don't get the outcomes you want it's because you haven't responded correctly to the events that have occurred up until that time.

My mom and my dad got divorced when I was six and so I settled in Wheeling, West Virginia, grew up in a kind of a normal lower middle class life.

Then you have to be willing to ask yourself, "What am I willing to sacrifice in terms of time, effort, resources, money, et cetera, in order to achieve those goals?"

And it was in Chicago that I met this man named W. Clement Stone, who was a self-made multi-millionaire and he was worth $600 million and he took me under his wing and basically said to me, "If you'll teach these success principles to others, I'll teach them to you."

And that's really what I see, the kind of work I do which is we remove the block so the natural essence of who you are comes forward without effort. In fact, it gets easier.

Yes, I think one of the key principles of success is never give up. You have to persevere, called consistent persistence, and the best example would be "Chicken Soup for the Soul." When we went to sell that book we were rejected by every major publisher in New York, all 22 of the big ones.

And the key there is that over 14 months of rejections from the time we started in New York until we finally got a publisher and the message is never give up on your dreams because if we'd stopped after 100 and said "Well obviously this isn't supposed to happen," I wouldn't be sitting here today.

And what I found in life is if you ask people to support you, nine times out of ten they will.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

I live in a $4.5 million mansion. I have a wife to die for. I get to vacation in all the fabulous spots of the world. I have climbed mountains. I have explored. I've been on safaris. And all of this happens and continues to happen because of knowing how to apply the message in The Secret DVD.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

KING: We're back with our panel. The importance of learning to love yourself first, James, before you love anybody is that true? If you don't love yourself, you can't love anybody else?

RAY: It's absolutely true, Larry. You see I travel all around the world and the whole concept of soul mate is often inherently flawed because it says that your completion or your better half resides outside yourself.

Intellectually we know better than that. I mean your completion doesn't reside outside yourself. Your completion resides inside yourself. You will never, ever attract a perfect relationship with another human being into your life until you first and foremost have a perfect relationship with yourself.

KING: Why, Jack, in life probably the hardest thing is maintaining a happy relationship?

CANFIELD: Well because we tend to project the unexpressed parts of ourself, the unaccepted parts of ourself out onto the other person and we keep trying to get them to change so that we'll be happy.

And really what the value of a relationship is, is to reflect back and mirror back to us the parts of ourself we haven't integrated love in order to express fully.

So, if we learn that then we can create a great relationship so that when my wife, I, you know, "is making me angry," I really look inside and say "Well what is it about me that I'm rejecting in her that I need to clean up?" And if I can do that, then the relationship becomes a fabulous place to grow and a fabulous place for fulfillment.

KING: Are you in trouble, Joe, if your emotional happiness is dependent on someone else?

VITALE: Yes, absolutely. In fact, if you're trying to go beyond positive thinking, you're trying to manifest anything and you're sending out these negative energies about addiction, about obsession, about emotional need then that's what you're going to get more of and you will have a very fractured relationship that is not going to last.

KING: Dr. Pratt, the importance of healing after a relationship ends before a new one starts.

PRATT: Essential, people (INAUDIBLE).

KING: Can't go from one to the other?

PRATT: No. You need a little time to heal, to learn about yourself and understand what happened in the relationship. And, if you're having a problem with somebody unless there is some pretty other serious circumstances, there is a mirror there so those -- you have learned something about yourself in the process.

KING: Why do people keep dating the same or being involved with the same kind of person that hurt him before?

PAYNE: Yes, that's a good one because dealing with addictions, one of the biggest causes of relapse in addictions, by the way, is relationship issues. And, the bottom line is, is at the point of abandonment it begins a loss of our identity. And what happens is then we spend the rest of our time trying to look for that missing piece and we look for it in others. And the bottom line is it's not in others, it's in ourselves.

KING: We have an audience question from Alexandra Goldman -- Alexandra.

ALEXANDRA GOLDMAN: My question is how do you maintain a successful love relationship while growing as an individual when people so often grow apart?

KING: James.

RAY: Well, one of the things that I suggest you do is sit down with your mate and talk about where you're going and what's important to you in your relationship. Once you do that then you can take steps together to begin moving in that direction.

KING: What about relationship addictions, doctor?

PRATT: You can become addicted to anything. That's when you find some fulfillment or you get a release of dopamine or some other neuro chemical when you're around them. It creates a high. And that the absence of that puts you into a state of deprivation.

KING: Joe, can you hypnotize yourself out of a bad relationship?

VITALE: That's an interesting question.

KING: Say you're in love, you're hung up and it's going nowhere and you want to get out but you can't get out.

VITALE: Oh, you can always get out. Your hypnotized yourself into it actually. You know you're talking -- yes, so you absolutely did. You know I wrote this whole book, "The Attractor Factor." There's five steps on achieving whatever you want.

But actually since I wrote it, I found that there's only this one step and this one step is, and I can't do it all the time, and I don't know anybody else that can do it all the time, but it cuts through the relationship. It breaks the trance. It fulfills a lot of things we need. Be happy in this moment. Be happy now. This is the point of power. Everything else is in the past or in the future.

KING: Just ahead, positive thinking and your pocketbook. Find out how it can pay off financially when LARRY KING LIVE comes back.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

VITALE: When I was in Dallas, and this would have been in the late '70s, I was virtually, I was not virtually, I was homeless for a short period of time. You don't ever want to be homeless for a single day but I was for a short period of time.

But throughout it all, I was always maintaining my vision, my goal, my focus. I want to be an author. I want to write books. And I would say I would owe it all to the principles that are in the DVD movie "The Secret," the principles I talk about in my books like "The Attractor Factor," and, of course, through never giving up, never giving up the dream, the desire, the hope, that vision and constantly going forward with it.

Because you are the masterpiece of your own life, you are the Michelangelo of your own life. The David that you are sculpting is you.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

VITALE: Well another thing people wonder about is how long is this going to take? How long will it take to manifest the car, the relationship, the money whatever it happens to be?

Well, I don't have any rule book that says it's going to take you 30 minutes or three days or 30 days. I think it's more a matter of you being in alignment with the universe itself.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

KING: We're back on this very special edition of beyond the power of positive thinking. Our guests are James Ray, president and CEO of James Ray International; Jack Canfield, the famed originator of the "Chicken Soup for the Soul" series; Dr. Joe Vitale, president of the Hypnotic Marketing, Incorporated organization and founder and president of the Hypnotic Marketing Institute; Dr. George Pratt is chairman of psychology at Scripps Memorial Hospital in La Jolla, California; and Jayne Payne is a therapist, social worker and a licensed chemical dependent counselor.

We're going to talk about money in this segment. James, what's -- explain the power of partnerships.

RAY: Well, I made a decision several years ago, over a decade ago, that really changed my life. I made a decision I wasn't going to spend high quantity time with people I didn't want to be.

KING: This is in the financial area we're discussing.

RAY: Yes. Financially or anyway -- in any area, actually. You know, because I looked around at the people I was hanging out with, and they weren't going the same places I was going, they weren't doing the same things I was doing, they weren't thinking the way I was thinking. So they were holding me back.

So I made a decision to start spending more time with people that were like-minded and moving in the direction I was going. KING: Jack, explain the time management system.

CANFIELD: Well, basically the system is divided into three parts. You divide your days into three kind of days. Focus days, free days and buffer days.

And a focus day is 85 percent of your time is focused on the 20 percent of your life that produces 80 percent of the results. So each of us has something that we do naturally that we would call our core genius. For me it's teaching, speaking, writing, et cetera.

The second kind of day is a free day. It's midnight to midnight with no work related activity. And by that definition, there are some people who haven't had a free day in three years. And what we now know from the studies is the people that take more free days actually end up making more money, because when they're off, that's when the creative ideas come forward, the inspirations for new products, new ideas, new services, new ways to be in the world.

And the third kind of day is a buffer day. And that's when you are doing the things like delegating, preparation. You have to go out there and run around and do your laundry and get all that stuff done.

But the point is, that we do have to have those days. So the key is, you want to have more focus days, more free days and less buffer days. And you want to have your schedule determine what kind of day it is, so you're not just responding to people, you're intentional.

KING: Joe, how do we increase the speed of attaining financial career goals?

VITALE: I think it is a couple of things. One of them is focussing on what you want, being very clear on the amount of money, making sure it's a stretch, but it's still believable.

Another thing is to visualize it with feeling, making sure that that feeling element is there.

And the third is to be taking action, and make sure that you're acting on the ideas. Because when your stated intention is that you want to have so much money, and start to take action for it, you will start to go in that direction. You'll start to have ideas, but your bargain is you have to act on those ideas or nothing will get done.

KING: Doctor, is a personal coach a good idea?

PRATT: I think we all need coaching. And I think we can all benefit from learning in new ways.

I know that when you're thinking about coaching or using others as resources, even in the financial area, new ideas can present some very interesting opportunities.

KING: Go ahead. I want to get an audience question, but go ahead, Joe. VITALE: OK, I just wanted to -- you asked about coaching. I want to point out how important it is to have a coach, because most of us are thinking within this little ball and nest of beliefs. We don't know what the beliefs are because they are what we think all the time. Somebody else, a coach on the outside can listen to you and feedback to you what your own thoughts are.

KING: An objective.

VITALE: Objective person, yes.

KING: We have a question in the audience from Rob Christie (ph) -- Rob.

QUESTION: Hi.

Thank you, everybody.

I'm a single man with a single income, and I love my job. I love what I do. But it puts me at a certain financial level, and are there any actual steps that you can recommend to help me obtain my goal of buying a house and, more importantly, buying a house where I want to live, which is at the beach?

KING: James, is he thinking out of bounds?

RAY: Well, you know, it really depends. You've got to get really clear. If that house is what you want, then you've got to, again, think, feel and act as if you are going to get that house. You've got to take the action.

You know, I've worked with several individuals who couldn't come up with the money for the down payment, but they went ahead and took the action towards it, and by and large, they attracted $100,000, $20,000 here, $10,000 here from their friends and family. And they bought the home.

So you've got to take that action. You've got to move forward, thinking, feeling, acting and knowing that you can do that. And you can make it happen. You really can.

CANFIELD: My mentor was a man named W. Clement Stone, who worth $600 million when I worked for him. And he taught me this principle. And I was a teacher in Chicago making $8,000 a year. And I took a course with him. And he said I want you to set a goal that's so big that if you achieve it, you'll know it's because of what I'm teaching you.

So I set a goal to make $100,000 in one year. Now, you know,they don't pay you more to become a good teacher. So I had no idea how I was going to do that, but I visualized it, I had an affirmation, I felt the feelings, I saw myself living in this $100,000 lifestyle.

And to make a long story short, what happened was I started getting ideas. I would be in the shower and this inspiration would come, hey, you have a book. It gets 25 cents royalty every time it gets sold. If you sell 400,000 copies of that book, you'd make $100,000.

Now, I didn't know how to do that. My publisher didn't know how to do that. But I started visualizing 400,000 book copies sold. And what changed it was my wife said one day that if we were a bookstore, we would make three dollars a book, then we'd only have to sell 33,000 copies. And by the end of the year we had a mail-order bookstore with 32 different books and tapes and we made $92,328. And I was still a teacher making $8,000, which gives me what?

A $100,000 a year income.

VITALE: Get the house.

KING: We'll take a break and be back with more.

Still to come, the keys to using emotional awareness to control your physical health.

Don't go away.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

PAYNE: Relationship addictions are a loss of one's self that occurs when abandonment occurs. And what happens at the point of abandonment, when we're given messages, because we are sexual beings, we're given messages that say, you're not OK as a girl, you're not OK as a boy. And we grow up feeling that we're not OK as sexual beings, so what we do is we try to get those two parts to come together by getting into constant relationships over and over and over again.

And so when those don't work, we eventually end up finally grieving the loss of the abandonment and we stop abandoning ourselves.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

RAY: How can you ever expect anyone else to enjoy your company if you don't enjoy your own company? And so, again, the Law of Attraction, or the secret is about bringing that into your life. And you've got to get really, really clear.

Here's a question I want to ask you to consider. Do you treat yourself the way that you want other people to treat you?

(END VIDEO CLIP)

KING: We're back. Jayne Payne, how do we change habits?

PAYNE: One of the ways to change habits is first become aware you have one. And that's where the outside coaching comes in. And usually people that have habits that are not working for them in their lives will end up in some form of therapy or end up in some kind abusive relationships or getting negative responses.

KING: This panel is not against therapy, is it? UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Not at all.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Not at all. I think works.

PAYNE: It works together...

KING: How do you cure an addiction, George?

PRATT: Well, you get to the source of it. You support. You change your thinking. You make decisions, you write goals, you go to some kind of 12 step group and you apply the self-calming techniques that are available in a number of resources.

KING: Jayne, explain your intensive grief weekends.

PAYNE: OK. The grief weekends are a weekend where people come and they go down to the very core issue, the very bottom line of why they aren't accomplishing what they want to accomplish in life.

And we work through it, through the grieving process. And at the end, we have a funeral. We bury it. And therefore it is no more. And I always get to the point where we talk at the end, if you go within, you never go without.

KING: Are you saying you can think good health?

RAY: You can. You can. You can just as easily think good health as you can think poor health. You've to give your attention to something, Larry. So energy flows where attention goes. If you get up every single morning and you are giving all your attention to how overweight, out of shape and broke you are, then energy is going to flow in that direction.

KING: Yes, but you can't outthink cancer.

RAY: Well, there is a lot of documented cases where there has been complete remission, complete turnaround.

You know, cancer is a process. And your body turns over. We know that in the medical profession, that your body turns over every seven years or less, every cell, every bone, everything. So when you're diagnosed with a cancer, it is a process of cancering yourself. When you stop that process, you can reverse it. And there is plenty of documented cases.

KING: You work with dolphins?

PRATT: Yes. I do seminars in Hawaii. And that includes swimming with dolphins.

KING: What do you do?

PRATT: Well, it is a heck of a lot of fun to begin with. So it is helpful for our own neurochemicals. But an interesting study came out in a British medical journal last fall that in the clinical trials, swimming with dolphins one hour a day for 10 days helped to reset mild to moderate depression, interestingly.

And I also want to say one thing about what you were saying that ties into the dolphins, and that is I want people to -- in the prevention process, to be going through a gratitude list in the shower, 10 things in the morning, to make sure they get at least three laughs during the day, to do some deep breathing and seeing whatever they want to have happen for two minutes a day.

KING: So is there any area of life this doesn't work?

VITALE: What a great question.

KING: That's why I asked it.

VITALE: I'm glad you did. I'm glad you did. You know, I don't know that there are any limits whatsoever. I keep finding out that what we think is a limit doesn't become a limit. Once we start addressing it, we set a goal to go past it. I mean, it is the old four-minute mile, it's about going to the moon, it's about, you know, Larry, I was homeless at one point. I was in poverty for the longest time. I'm now a bit of an Internet celebrity. I have got more books than I can remember that are out there, most of which are best- sellers. Last week, I bought myself one of 300 hand-made luxury sports cars, a Panoz Esperante, and I'm a guy who was homeless 30 some years ago, paying cash for a luxury car.

You can change your life and you can dissolve anything that you think is your limit. Thirty years ago, I would have said, no, I can't get a -- what is a sports car?

KING: Jayne, you put any limit on anything?

PAYNE: No. There are no limits. Our unconscious mind doesn't know anything is not possible. And if you tap into that...

GANFIELD: Let me tell you a really interesting story. This guy named Cliff Young shows up at a race in Australia, 61 years old, he's wearing Oshkosh overalls, a t-shirt, baseball cap, construction boots and galoshes. And it's a six-day run from Sydney to Melbourne, 650 kilometers. All the young guys who are there, these elite runners, and they think this guy is crazy, he can't possibly do this.

So they all take off and they're all running really fast, and Cliff is kind of doing this what they call the Cliff Young shuffle.

And the thing he didn't know, because he had never read a book on racing, he'd never talked to a runner, he just read what was in the paper and wanted to go do it, is that on these long runs, you're supposed to run for 18 hours, sleep for six.

So that night when everyone went to sleep, he was so far behind, no one told him to go to bed. He ran right by everybody and ran nonstop for five and a half days, Larry, and broke the record of that race by 12 hours.

And he came back the next year, everyone was doing the Cliff Young shuffle, and there were 70 people in the race and they all broke records. But he came in number 12 out of 70.

So he didn't know there was a limit. He didn't know you were supposed to do that.

And we're all controlled by what we have been told is possible instead of told as children, anything is possible.

KING: So the old axiom, mind over matter, works?

GANFIELD: Indeed.

KING: When we come back, we'll talk about some of the key steps that can help you find success. We'll be right back.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

PRATT: It has been very interesting over the years. I started in practice, always trying to help people be their best, and that wasn't always the case with psychology in general. Some people were more oriented in different directions. But mine was a more positive approach, which is now popular.

And I will tell you that even though my seminars that I do where we do end up swimming with dolphins in the wild -- we don't bother them, we let them swim by us if they want to -- is what happens to people after the seminar, combination of education and then being in the energetic field with the dolphins, it's pretty phenomenal. People are -- they're strengthened, they're empowered, and they feel like they can do what they need to do. And whether you think you can do something or you can't, you're right. So you might as well focus on the positive.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

GANFIELD: Decide what you want. Believe you can have it. Believe you deserve it. Believe it is possible for you. And then close your eyes every day for several minutes and visualize having what you already want and feeling the feelings of already having it.

Come out of that, and focus on what you're grateful for already. And really be -- enjoy it, OK? And then go into your day and release it to the universe, and trust that the universe will figure out how to manifest it.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

KING: James Ray, you say gratitude is the most powerful force. Does it work?

RAY: It really is. Well, energy flows where attention goes. If you have a relationship, a romantic relationship, and you're grateful and you love him or her, you give them attention, right? If you have children and you love them, you give them attention. Attention equals love.

KING: Why aren't we grateful?

RAY: Most people are in love with their misery, because they're attending to it all the time. It's like a roaring bonfire and they're throwing another log on it every day.

KING: Jack, what...

GANFIELD: Focus on what you're grateful for. What it focuses you on is what you want more in your life. The reason you're grateful is it makes you happy. You're feeling good about it. So by focusing your gratitude on that, as you were saying every morning, you know, go through a gratitude list -- I spend seven minutes every morning writing down what I'm grateful for.

KING: Joe, what is the danger of feeling desperate?

VITALE: You're going to attract more desperation. The energy that you send out is the attractor. This is from my book, "The Attractor Factor." It's got to pull back whatever it is that you're feeling. You're going to get more of it. So if you're feeling desperate, the only thing that you're going to notice, the only thing that you're going to attract are more feelings, thoughts and situations that will make you feel desperate.

KING: Perseverance is very important, right, doc?

PRATT: Perseverance, persistence, developing new habits.

KING: And that can be taught.

PRATT: It can be taught and it can be practiced. And the more you practice it, the better you get.

KING: We have another question from our audience, from Elizabeth Decosta (ph). Elizabeth.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Hi, guys. So I've been working the principles and staying positive and all of that. My question is, how do you politely address those around you, whether they're friends or family, who don't support you or are not on the same path and -- well, actually turn down your goals, your dreams and your aspirations? Are you supposed to, like, remove them from your circle, or how do you...

KING: Great question. I will go to Jayne first and then...

PAYNE: The thing that I've found with working with this for many years is once you begin to have that attraction in your life, and once you begin to put that into motion and it begins to happen for you, an amazing thing happens. These things just kind of fall away from your life, because you're no long attracting them. So they kind of resolve themselves. They will just eventually dissipate because you're attracting something new into your life. And when we eliminate something out of our life, we replace it with something else.

KING: James?

RAY: The things we're talking about here, your peer group will change. When you choose to pursue your greatness, you'll represent the courage, in many cases, that other people don't have. And so you've got to be prepared for that.

But it will, as Jayne said, take care of itself. It doesn't mean they're not good people. They're wonderful people, as I believe all people are, but they're not going in the same direction you are.

And so -- you still love them, but I would recommend you don't spend high quantity time with people who aren't in the same mindset.

KING: Jack, what's the importance of responding to feedback?

CANFIELD: Well, basically, I teach that the way to improve is to solicit and respond to feedback. So I teach a question that my wife and I use once a week, and that I teach other people to use. On a scale of one to ten, how would you rate the quality of our relationship, or how would you rate the quality of this show or this product or service we have?

Anything less than ten gets a follow-up question: what would it take to make it a ten?

So one time I did this with my wife and she said six. And I said, wow what would it take to make it a ten?

She said don't interrupt me when I'm telling a joke because you think you can tell a punchline better. She said your job is to put the kids to bed. I don't care if it is the NBA playoffs, I don't want to have to remind you. You don't remind me to get them up in the morning. She went on with about five or six other things. But now I have five ways I can improve my relationship. Most people don't ask for feedback because they are afraid of what they're going to hear.

KING: What if you disagree?

CANFIELD: You don't have to agree. You don't have to do it. But at least I know what, in her perception, would allow the relationship to go forward.

And here's the other thing. Most people don't ask and the reason is they're afraid to hear it. I say, look, if you don't ask your wife or your children or whatever, they've already -- your wife's already told her mother, her girlfriend, the people at work, the people at the supermarket, the people in the hair salon. You're the only one who doesn't know.

KING: Coming up in our final segment, how to make the start of your day the start of a new life.

Don't go away.

Meantime, also visit the specials website at CNN.com/happiness.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

KING: We're back.

I want to get some questions in from the audience and wind up from each of our panelists.

Jocelyn McCarthy (ph).

QUESTION: Yes.

Hi, thank you.

My question is how do you manage personal, professional and spiritual life in this demanding society?

RAY: That's harmonic wealth. It really is. You know, I think you -- I think that presupposes that you can't do that. You absolutely can. You absolutely can. You need to make a decision you can. You need to sit down.

I would encourage you to sit down right now and make a list of the five key areas of life, financial, relational, intellectual, physical, spiritual and what exactly you want to create and attract in each of those areas. And then keep your attention on that, regardless of what's going on around you and you'll begin to create it.

KING: And one more from Ron Drescher (ph) and then a follow-up with each of our panelists -- Ron.

QUESTION: All right.

Thank you.

I want to be more happy, spiritual and at peace in my life. How do I get started?

KING: Joe? VITALE: Find things to be grateful for right now. Right in this moment. The fact that you can ask this question, the fact that you are alive, the fact that you're breathing, the fact that you're living wherever you're living.

Find a reason to be grateful, much like you mentioned earlier, with a tear in your eye because it is so genuine for you. Out of that gratitude you will find more things to be grateful for. And out of that gratitude you will find happiness right now.

KING: Jack, explain give more to get more.

CANFIELD: Well, basically, the universe responds. If you give, it comes back to you. We've been talking about giving out vibrations. The vibrations come back. The same is true with money. If I give more money, more money tends to come back in my life.

Every time, Larry, that I've gone and done some kind of volunteer work, something's happened out of that experience where I've met somebody, maybe a bank president, who then hires me to come speak to his company.

It always comes back. So basically, people that are successful -- I mean, you had Donald Trump and Kiyosaki on your program not so long ago. And they're two of the biggest givers I know. And so by giving, they get more back. And I think that it's true for all of us. So givers get.

KING: Dr. Pratt, how do you start a new day to start a new life?

PRATT: Well, I like the gratitude list in the morning. And then doing the two minutes of imagery of the different elements that you want. If you want to change something in your life, make that part of the end result imagery, in terms of balance, spiritually, mentally, physically, et cetera. Make that part of that two-minute imagery, so that you can come back to it, so you're mindful during the day, you're aware of it. And so your attention is continuing to be focussed on it.

KING: Jayne, isn't change the hardest thing?

PAYNE: Actually...

KING: The thing we fear the most.

PAYNE: ... it's the thing that's feared the most.

However, change within itself will happen automatically whether we want it or not. Change goes on every day. It's how we react to the change in our life that determines what the outcome will be.

KING: James, how about world problems and the effect on daily life? You look at an Iraq or you look at hurricanes, North Korea setting off a bomb.

RAY: Right. KING: It's easy to say, I'm not too sure about tomorrow.

RAY: It is. I mean, we have a nation in fear. We have a world in fear because we're bombarded all the time with the things that are going on that appear to be so heinous.

But here's the thing, we live in a dualistic world. The law of polarity says if there's an up, there's a down, if there's an in, there's an out. What that means is if you're in a really challenging situation in your life right now, there's something there that's really amazing about it as well. But you're not putting your attention upon it.

See, when you shift your attention, you being to think about it. During the difficult times in our life, Larry, we learn and grow the most through challenges. Don't wish for an easier life. We wish for greater capability to ease elegantly through life.

KING: Only have a minute or so left.

Do you have bad days, Jack?

CANFIELD: I don't have bad days. I can't say I never had...

KING: You don't have bad days?

CANFIELD: No.

KIND: You have bad days, Joe?

VITALE: Occasionally I have bumps in the road, but I certainly get through them much faster than I used to.

KING: Jayne?

PAYNE: I don't have bad days anymore.

KING: Doctor?

PRATT: Quick recovery with the new techniques.

KING: James?

RAY: I don't have bad days. I have challenges, but challenges are a part of life.

KING: James Ray, Jack Canfield, Dr. Joe Vitale -- George Pratt, Joe Vitale, rather. Dr. George Pratt and Jayne Payne on "Beyond the Power of Positive Thinking."
