This week's question from my portal “The Neagle Code: Directions
for Life” comes from Mike.

Hi Mike. Thanks for the question!

The first thing to realize is that everything comes from within you. As children, we are taught to look outward for validation of what the world is like. But the truth is that all experiences come from inside of you.

You get to decide who you want to be and what you want your reality to be. It is not determined by anyone else but you.

But, your reality won’t change until you start making new decisions.

See your current situation as a place to work from. Even if you aren’t currently the person that you need to be to go where you want to go, you can choose to be that person now.

What kind of person has what you want?

What are their characteristics?

Once you have that list, make a decision to start adopting those qualities as your own and be that person all the time.

Your desire to change has to be stronger than the fear you are feeling.

Fear is an illusion; a result of false programming that formed your current reality.

Once you believe more in the Truth than you do your own story, change will be automatic.

Just Believe,^®

This week's question from my portal “The Neagle Code: Directions
for Life” comes from Amanda.

Amanda, thank you for the question.

Finding your purpose comes from knowing who you truly are and what you desire. Your purpose is already within you and it isn’t something you look for outside yourself.

I’m sure you’ve heard my story about my boating accident where I almost died after being sucked into a dam. When I was hanging onto a tree branch for dear life, I made a promise to God that I would figure out why I hadn’t been able to do the things that I knew I should have been doing. And then do them.

Right after the accident, nothing happened. God didn’t tell me what to do. After much frustration, I realized God wasn’t going to tell me what to do. I had to make that decision myself. I started by asking myself, “What am I going to do with the rest of my life?”

At first I didn’t know the answer. I kept asking myself the question and then answers began to come forward. The first three answers I received and acted upon were to:

1. Change my attitude

2. Treat everyone with total respect

3. Do everything to the best of my ability.

Now, this didn’t immediately give me the answer to my life purpose. It did help me to change and to raise my awareness. Whenever we raise our awareness, we discover more of who we truly are. The more we know who we truly are, the more answers we’re given about our unique gifts we have to share with the world.

The key here, Amanda, is to continue to ask yourself conscious questions to raise your awareness of who you are. Everyday, ask yourself, “What am I going to do with the rest of my life?” and “What do I really want?”

Just as I did and continue to do, follow the answers you are given as if they were bread crumbs creating a path and you will find yourself living your “purpose.”

Just Believe,^®

The second you make a firm decision to embrace your desire, and you fully step into it, the universe responds immediately. It starts rearranging your life so that you can reach your goal and fulfill your purpose.

Some of that does not look or feel good.

Often there is a brief period of chaos. You may experience difficult situations or people close to you get sick.

That can be very challenging, because you're emotionally attached to the things and people in your life. You think, What the hell is going on? My whole world's falling apart!

It's difficult, but it is only temporary. It's like the turbulence you experience when you take off in an airplane.

The pilot comes over the intercom, saying, “Folks, we're experiencing some turbulence right now. I'm waiting to get clearance from air traffic control so that we can take you up and out of this.”

Meanwhile, you're gripping the seat rests or the hand of the person next to you, wondering when the hell it's going to end.

Then, all of a sudden, they get the all-clear. The plane soars to 36,000 feet, and it's smooth sailing from that point on.

The higher side of you understands this process, but your subconscious mind is freaking out. It can only go by the information with which it's been programmed ~ which includes belief in lack ~ so it perceives your goal as an impossible dream. It believes that what you're doing is dangerous, so it's trying to stop you.

You have to be ready for this, because your subconscious will cause you to think thoughts that are detrimental to your progress toward your vision.

You'll think, What's happening! I'd better stop. I shouldn't spend any more money! This is crazy. I can't do this! In addition you may feel fear, anger or overwhelmed.

The truth is everything is moving in the right direction. When you set your goals according to Universal Law, as I've been showing you, you are going for the biggest win of your life.

Just keep following what I told you in my recent series on the Seven Secrets of Multimillionaire Entrepreneurs.

Those ideas of desire, decision, belief and faith in a higher power, love, responsibility, will, and action, will keep you living in the higher side of yourself.

They will cut straight through the chaos and rocket you to your goal.

David Neagle, The Million Dollar Income Acceleration Mentor and author of The Millions Within, teaches entrepreneurs and commission-based sales professionals how to quantum leap their current incomes past the 7-figure income level, often in less than 12 months. As a world-class speaker, sales trainer, and success-mindset mentor to some of the globe’s top CEOs, David also privately mentors big decision-makers in their pursuit of quantum success and peace of mind.

If you’ve been putting the information in this goal-setting series into practice, you now have a gift from the Universe: a prosperous idea that you received while fantasizing.

This idea represents something you want for your business or relationship, or it’s something you’d like to do. It would make an enormous difference in your life.

Now, the question is, how do you turn your fantasy into reality?

The first step is to answer the following two questions honestly.

1.  “Am I able?”

Do you believe that you are able to manifest your desire?

I asked you to receive ideas through fantasizing because I wanted you to open your mind to possibility, to receive ideas you might never have considered.

In order to manifest your idea, however, you have to muster the faith to believe in it.

For instance, let’s say you have a $1 million business and you want to expand to $3 million this year.

That’s a stretch, and the idea scares you, but you also feel deeply excited. You really feel in your gut that you can do it.

If, on the other hand, you don’t feel able, don’t beat yourself up. I say all the time that you have to start where you are. Fantasize again and ask for something that you can believe in.

Just keep your original vision too. You might be ready for it sooner than you think!

2. “Am I willing?”

When you can say that you are able to manifest your idea, you then want to ask yourself if you are willing to do what must be done to make it a reality.

For example, are you willing to:

Change what must be changed?

Financially invest in yourself?

Get coaching and direction when required?

Let go of self-limiting stories?

Study, read and attend seminars?

Mastermind with like-minded people?

Release your past?

Continue when met with failure?

Refuse to be a victim?

Possibly face ridicule, humiliation and rejection?

Commit to living a new life?

Move if necessary?

The list can go on and on, and you won’t know all of the things that need to change before you make the decision to pursue your fantasy.

In fact, you have to make the decision first.

This is difficult, I know, but the Universe won’t show you what you need to do until you make the decision to step into your vision.

Once you say that you are willing, the Universe will show you exactly what needs to shift. It will show up in your life as a problem or an issue, as something that obviously needs to change.

The only thing you need to do now is commit to being willing to do whatever “it” is.

Yes, that’s a huge leap of faith.

However, whatever you’ll be asked to change is the thing that’s been holding you back. So there’s really nothing to lose and everything to gain.

If you can jump off that diving board and say, “I AM ABLE, AND I AM WILLING,” you’ve made a decision.

And your fantasy is one step closer to reality.

I’ll show you that all-important second step next time.

This week's question from my portal “The Neagle Code: Directions for Life” comes from Michael Pierich. You can find him on the web at www.healedspirit.com.

Question:

David,

Thanks for the Art of Success Program. It's very good.

Was just re-listening to the section on security in part II where you mention one's failing to take opportunities because we feel we can't afford it.

I know I'm probably missing something here – but I do have past experience of taking part in fairly expensive courses with little or no results. How does one get around that experience? It seems to me that some things get programmed into the subconscious for a good reason – namely, because they're true! It's like touching the hot stove – how many times must one do that before the lesson is learned? I know of no one who kept touching the stove and eventually was able to do it without pain…

Answer:

Hi Michael!

You've actually asked two different questions in your above inquiry, so I'll answer each as it's own separate question.

Your first question was “How do I get around the experience of having spent money on fairly expensive courses with little or no results?”

First, you can't get around the experience. You must take responsibility for it.

You see, you are the center of your reality; you create everything. All the positive experiences and all the negative experiences are your own creation, and you create EVERYTHING for a reason whether you consciously realize it or not.

So the truth is, you didn't experience results from the program you invested in because it served you in some way. Either you stopped doing what you were directed to do because of subconscious fear or you chose the program from a place of lack. In which case the end result was lack.

So, be honest for a moment.

Did you choose that fairly expensive program based solely on your desire to have what the outcome promised and your intuition on knowing that the program was just what you needed? Or was your decision based on a combination of what you believe you could afford and the outcome that was offered?

It makes a difference.

And during the course of the program did you let someone know that you weren't satisfied or that you needed assistance? Did you reach out for help and were you willing to do everything you were directed to do?

Are you using your past experience as an excuse to stop?

Because if you are, it's serving a very definite purpose.

Your second question was, “It seems to me that some things get programmed into the subconscious for a good reason – namely, because they're true! It's like touching the hot stove – how many times must one do that before the lesson is learned?“

First, I think it's important to note that the fear of touching a hot stove is not a subconscious fear.

We are all consciously aware that touching a hot stove hurts because we've experienced it and don't really want to experience it again.

Babies and small children don't have the subconscious fear, which is why at some point, they have to experience it to know not to touch it.

We have many fears that keep us from perishing but they are all conscious.

Here is the distinction…

God gave us desires. He's a perfect and loving God, and if he's a perfect and loving God, why would he give us desires and then tell us that we can't have them?

The answer is, he wouldn't. It's not in his nature to do such a thing.

If you have a desire to be, do or have something, that message is from God.

And if you experience obstacles, roadblocks, blind spots, or negative circumstances associated with the journey of being, doing or having your desire, you must understand that those experiences are being created from your subconscious mind's need to keep you from growing. Because it views such growth as a threat.

The difference is in the desire.

I don't know anyone who desires to touch a hot stove on a regular basis, but I know lots of people who desire to make a difference in this world and stop because they are afraid of something that does not exist.

This week's question from my portal “The Neagle Code: Directions for Life” comes from an individual who wishes to remain anonymous.

Question:

Hi David. I'm having a difficult time setting a money goal and then sticking to it. It doesn't seem to be enough to set the financial goal; yet, I really NEED the money that I'm asking for. How do I continually stay focused on that goal?

Answer:

To answer your question, I'm going to refer to Chapter 2 in Napoleon Hill's book, Think and Grow Rich.

You see, wishing for money will not bring it.

According to Hill, desiring riches with a state of mind that becomes an obsession, then planning definite ways and means to acquire riches, and backing those plans with persistence, which DOES NOT RECOGNIZE FAILURE, will bring riches.

If you look at the above paragraph, you can see there are many things at play in hitting your financial goal.

First, you must desire it. You must be emotionally attached to it. Some of you may have even heard me call your goal a magnificent obsession. Get crystal clear on your goal. If it's an amount you've picked out of thin air because it “would be nice”, you cannot be emotionally attached to it. Your goal should mean something to you.

Second, you must take action on a plan to bring forth the money. No matter how much you desire to hit your goal, the heavens will not open and drop money in your lap.

Third, you must be persistent, and you must be persistent in a way that you REFUSE to accept failure as an option. I call this “burning the ships”. For some of you this may mean giving up a weekend to make sales calls or doing something you've been resisting for quite some time. It's about doing whatever it takes regardless of the fear that you are confronted with.

And fourth, along with being persistent, you must see, feel and believe yourself already having the money you need to hit your financial goal. Your desire must be so strong, that you convince yourself that you already have it.

And in truth, if you desire it, it is in fact already here for you.

To help you stay focused, I recommend that you read and reread Chapter 2 in Think and Grow Rich, and pay special attention to the practical steps he gives for turning your desires into its financial equivalent.

This week's question from my portal “The Neagle Code: Directions for Life” comes from an individual who wishes to remain anonymous.

Question:

David, I've heard you mention the role the ego plays in stopping you from manifesting. How do I identify if my ego is trying to stop me?

Answer:

Hi and thanks for your question.

Your ego's sole job is to keep you exactly where you are. Your ego perceives any growth or change as a threat to your survival, and it will immediately begin to bring up fears to control your decision making.

And your ego can be very tricky!

Let me give you an example…

The truth states that if you have a desire, the way to fulfill that desire is already present. Therefore, if you feel a deep desire for something, that desire is coming from Spirit. It's a message being sent to you to help foster your growth and keep you on the path to increased consciousness.

The next thing that happens is your ego recognizes this desire as a threat, and immediately gives you many reasons why you shouldn't take action to achieve your desire. Some reasons your ego will use are:

• it's not the right time
• you don't want to travel
• you don't have enough money
• you don't deserve it
• people will laugh at you
• you will fail and everyone will find out

Because your ego is strong, you believe these excuses, and you stifle your own growth.

You believe the lies your ego is telling you.

So let's go back to the truth.

Spirit does not speak to you through fear. Period.

I'm sure you've heard me teach about manifestation. But let me just remind you that manifestation simply means “becoming aware of what already exists”. To simplify it, you can't want something without it already being present.

And your ego doesn't want you to take action toward your desire because in taking action you grow.
