Good Vibes, Good Life: How Self-Love Is the Key to Unlocking Your Greatness

by Vex King

if we change just one thought to a more positive one, and we really believe in it, we change our whole perception of the world. This new perception has the power to change outcomes.

our beliefs create the life we experience.

Our beliefs are like a lens through which we view life; we see what we convince ourselves is true.

The key point here is that if you want to change your belief, you have to disprove your current belief by finding enough evidence to support the belief you want. There are always success stories out there that will assist you in this process.

What you verbalize will eventually materialize. You have the power to talk aspects of your reality into existence.

Simply saying something over and over again, with great conviction,

creates a belief deep in our subconscious that this statement is true.

Once again, this leads me to stress the importance of surrounding yourself with people who are feeding you empowering thoughts.

If you’re unsure about what you want, you’ll end up with a lot of things you’re unsure of.

Before going after your goals, you have to know what you want. You can’t attain that which you’re unsure about.

Setting the right goal is everything. It has to reflect what you deeply desire – not what you think you should want.

Your goals should reflect who you are as a person.

They should be the things you think about all the time that you know will improve the quality of your life.

Once you make an intention clear, the Universe will work in miraculous ways.

You’re the author of your future. Write about what you desire and live your story.

Visualization is the process of creating an experience or intention in your mind before you have it in your life.

You have to create scenes, not pictures. In those scenes you must involve all of your senses: taste, sight, touch, smell and hearing.

Live the experience as if it were true in that precise moment.

It’s not about where you’re at. It’s about what you’re doing about where you’re at.

when we want a goal badly enough, we make sacrifices in other areas to make it possible. I’ve come to realize that it’s not necessary to have lots of free time to achieve a dream.

so many people go through their lives expecting change when they’re doing the same things every day. They feed all this positive energy via their thoughts, words and emotions, but take no action,

Some people would rather use their energy to find a way to use less effort for the same result.

We must come to terms with the idea that some things have to be done the difficult way.

The idea of going to the gym or eating healthily may seem much more painful than remaining how they are. So these people take no action. They tend to stick with easier and more comfortable options – but rarely do we grow within our comfort zone.

We must be consistent as we strive to achieve our goals.

‘We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.’ ARISTOTLE

The difference between ordinary and extraordinary is simple: extraordinary people will get things done even when they don’t feel like it, because they’re fully committed to their goals.

Things are always easier when you’re in the mood to do them, but if you want to live a greater life than the average person, you have to commit the same effort even when you’re not.

When you find yourself procrastinating, it’s important to devise a strategy to overcome this.

break your goals down. Big goals can be overwhelming, and it’s hard to imagine how you’ll ever cross the finish line. It’s more effective to set smaller goals and prioritize them in order of urgency.

If your final goal is time-sensitive, make sure each smaller goal has a deadline on it.

Patience is a must when pursuing your goals. Your desires can take a while to manifest. If you believe you’re doing everything in your power to manifest your goals, sometimes all you need to do is practise a little patience. Accept today as it is and stay optimistic in the face of delays, setbacks or challenges.

You’ll get the job, the partner, the house, the car, etc. Just don’t rush the process; trust it. You have to grow into your dreams.

A lot of the time, your goals aren’t eluding you; you either haven’t put in the effort you need to, or you’re expecting things to happen instantaneously. Practise a little patience.

many people are unwilling to delay brief gratification for the sake of long-term rewards. When you’re unwilling to delay temporary pleasures, this can have massive implications for your future.

Fear keeps our lives mediocre, because it forces us to flee from our potential, rather than from anything truly harmful. Fear sets us back in our everyday lives and controls our choices. We use our precious energy to imagine what could go wrong, instead of having faith in what could go right. And our actions reflect this.

Sometimes all we have is our faith – our faith in the fact that things are going to get better. Hang on to it and keep believing, even if that means you’re the only one who does.

Replacing fear with faith encourages us to do the unthinkable: it helps us to explore the realms of possibility.

Faith doesn’t necessarily make things easier, but it does make them possible.

The faith I’m talking about is the one that says, ‘I’m going to win,’ when all you can see is losses.

rejections are just redirections to better things. Setbacks are pauses for thought, opportunities to alter your plans – for the better. And however big any failure may feel at the time, there’s always a lesson to learn.

The past can’t be changed; only our perception of it can. By creating this shift in mindset, we start to trust that everything that happens to us also happens for us. As we begin to change our perception to a positive one, our life improves.

The next time you pray for your situation to change, realize that you’re in that situation so that you can change.

You’re always being guided by the Universe to live authentically and purposefully, and to experience the greater things in life. But if something doesn’t go the way you wanted, ask yourself what you can learn from it – because every bad experience has a learning outcome to be taken on board.

If you keep taking a bite out of the cake that harmed you, you no longer fall victim to it, you become a hungry volunteer.

You came here loaded with potential, ability, gifts, wisdom, love and intelligence to share with the world. You’re here to make the world a better place. You have a purpose, and until you start living it you’ll have a void inside you; a feeling you can’t quite explain, but that knows you’re meant for more.

Life is greater if you live with purpose. When you find a meaningful reason for doing what you do, you’ll feel complete.

You were created with intention. You’re here to help, love, assist, save and entertain. You’re here to inspire and put a smile on someone’s face. You’re here to make a difference. You wouldn’t be on this planet, at this time, if you didn’t have something to offer.

There’s a purpose behind your existence, and when you discover what it is, you’ll not only change the dynamics of the world, but also experience abundance in all areas of your life.

focus your mind on prosperity – there’s power in believing and allowing wealth to flow to you.
