Problems will take care of themselves!!!

– Earl Nightingale

This was something I did not believe at first. But I’ve understood what it meant when I tried my first ludicrous experiment. I was listening to one of Bob Proctor’s videos. In the video, Sandy Gallagher (president of Proctor Gallagher Institute) was talking about how she did exactly what Bob told her to do and got her dream home. And one of the steps was inviting her family to dinner before she actually got the home or the amount of money to pay for it! So, the wheels in my mind started turning and I thought I will invite my friends for a lunch party in an expensive hotel to give them a memorable experience of how it feels like! I didn’t have the money and not a single idea of how I will earn it.

I invited my friends with whatever confidence I could muster and made it look as real as possible. They didn’t know I was experimenting. Then, I only kept thinking about the lunch. Somehow the unshakeable confidence that Bob and Sandy showed caught up with me to a great extent. So, I was totally fearless. The worst thing that could happen was to be teased by my friends if it did not work out and that thought didn’t bother me much. But if did happen, it is gonna be the best experiments!

So, I was constantly checking my thoughts till the date arrived. And I didn’t get the money! But the circumstances changed such that my friends just couldn’t think about it. And I didn’t have to explain anything to them either.

So, the problems took care of themselves! After this experiment, time and time again it happened in my life.

There was a time when the exam dates coincided the same dates when I was gonna travel. And naturally, I acted like everything going perfect! And the exam dates simply got postponed!

Publishing my first novella! Till the last minute so much was left to be done and I was simply being calm. Later, everything got done simply!

How to make risks look less risky?

First, aim at something that is worthy of the risk. The worth can be measured in the sense of fulfilment you feel after you achieve the goal. The pros should be so higher than your cons.

Second, keep your thoughts tuned into the feeling of the goal accomplished and expect success. If you feel scared or worried, then by universal laws, the problems must arise automatically. Instead, if you keep calm and serene, problems will be taken care by the universe itself.

By doing so, you are gonna take risks, at the same time play it safe!

Thanks so much!
