This is a direct quote from a "lesson" posted by my good friend Tuula Rands in our Think And Grow Rich forum :
Chapter 8 - Decision (Think And Grow Rich, Napoleon Hill)
What is the biggest decision we have to make when we join
a Network Marketing company? Is it the decision to actually
join? Is it the decision to do the first step?
I believe the biggest decisions we have to make
is the decision to make our own decisions.
Hill tells us "Close friends and relatives, while not meaning to
do so, often handicap one through “opinions” and sometimes
through ridicule, which is meant to be humorous. Thousands
of men and women carry inferiority complexes with them all
through life, because some well-meaning, but ignorant person
destroyed their confidence through “opinions” or ridicule."
If our family or friends are not building a Network Marketing
business, THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT WE KNOW and therefore,
they are not qualified to make a decision about what we are
doing. So why do we listen to them?
We listen to our family and friends because we want their
approval; as if their approval is going to make the difference
in whether we are successful or not. It will only make a
difference if we allow it to, whether for the positive or for
the negative.
Do we approve of everything our family and friends do?
Do they follow all the things we tell them? Do we agree
with them all the time? The answer is probably "NO" to
all these questions? So why do we put so much weight
into whether they approve of what we are doing?
Hill tells us "You have a brain and a mind of your own,
USE IT, and reach your own decisions."
Hill also states “TELL THE WORLD WHAT YOU INTEND
TO DO, BUT FIRST SHOW IT.” This is the equivalent of
saying that “deeds, and not words, are what count most.”
Michael tells us to build our business and when we are
making good money our family and friends will see it and
then they may ask us what we are doing; and if they don't
ask, they don't want to know. So don't tell them.
Just think of all the self doubt, the worry and agonizing we
save ourselves when we make that initial decision of making
our own decisions and not worrying what our family and
friends think.
Hill also tells us "Those who reach DECISIONS promptly
and definitely, know what they want, and generally get it.
The leaders in every walk of life DECIDE quickly, and firmly.
That is the major reason why they are leaders. The world has
the habit of making room for the man whose words and
actions show that he knows where he is going."
DEFINITENESS OF DECISION always requires courage,
sometimes very great courage."
It takes courage to become a leader. Leaders make decisions
and follow through with those decisions regardless of what
friends and family think. The only people we should listen to
are the one who have done what we want to do.
The sooner we make the decision to make our own decisions,
the faster we will grow into the leader we want to become.

"To Be Or Not To Be" Or Is It "To Do Or Not To Do"
This is a direct quote from a "lesson" posted by my good friend Ryan McChesney in our Think And Grow Rich forum :
Ryan McChesney Tampa, FL, United States
Posted: 2016-01-06
Chapter 8
Decision (Think And Grow Rich, Napoleon Hill)
Everybody knows one of the most famous plays written by William Shakespeare called Hamlet. In that play, there was a classic line that really ties into this chapter, “To be or not to be…”
I remember back when I was in high school, and I was just listening to the other students read the play to the class. But when I heard this line, it really stood out to me; and it also made me pause and think about it. It was like when you are driving down the road and you pass your street that you were supposed to turn on. Then you had to slam on the brakes and back up to it. Well, that is exactly what this line did to me as well as the class. We discussed it throughout the class period. However, I did not realize the true meaning behind this line until recently.
This famous line has to deal with our decision making. And decisions are ultimately what makes us either successful or not successful. Let me explain this a little further. So you come up with a thought or dream that you can’t stop thinking about, and your body is fueling up with this burning, white hot desire. You keep picturing it and picturing it and picturing it, but then you decide that you are going to do it. Then you decide that you are not going to do it. And you keep going back and forth just like the saying, “To be or not to be…” When you constantly are deciding that you are going to do it and then not do it, you are like a car that stops and goes. You will ultimately confuse your subconscious, which will then effect the other previous steps towards riches that we have learned.
Therefore, one must learn to make a decision in order to become successful. Even Hill states in this chapter that people who fail to accumulate riches have the tendency to be influenced by others’ opinions, and cannot make a decision. Yeah, it is going to take a lot of action, persistence, and patience to become successful, but it will all be worth it in the end. So don’t procrastinate on making decisions, or else opportunities will pass you by. When you start to make decisions by yourself and quickly, then you will receive this energy that you have never felt before. It is like you have control, and you are know where you are going. Trust me, once I started to apply this and make decisions on my own, I have noticed a different me.

Why You Need To Have Faith And How To Induce IT
This is a direct quote from a "lesson" posted by my good friend Margi Starr in our 30 Day Mental Cleanse forum :
Chapter 3—Faith (Think And Grow Rich, Napoleon Hill)
I met Michael and Linda Dlouhy seven years ago in Houston, Texas.
I had heard Michael's voice many times on the MFF calls (as I sat quietly
in the shadows) and when I met him in person, I was even more
awestruck by his larger-than-life personality.
Aware that many of the people at the event would be on tight budgets,
Michael and Linda had coolers filled with food in their suite. By the end
of the event, I found myself dining at their table, grateful for their
generosity, and mesmerized by every word they spoke.
With such little faith in myself, I found I could hang onto their Faith.
Several years later I was in Florida and the Dlouhy’s took a group of us
to Clearwater Beach. Walking barefoot in the sand to the water's edge,
Michael said, “When you really believe you can do this, it will happen.”
Encouraging words for sure, but so frustrating! How does one achieve
that level of belief???
Here’s what I’ve discovered…
First, it takes time. We hear about the newbie marketers who rocket
to the top of their companies within the first year or two. Hurray for
them, but that is probably the exception. For most of us, it’s the daily
retraining of our minds and growing our belief systems.
At first it’s fun to do Self Talk and read Personal Growth books. After
a while, it’s not so fun. That’s when it becomes work and only the
Warrior perseveres.
It’s the Warrior who continues to do Self Talk, despite hearing the
“No’s” or feeling “blah.”
It’s the Warrior who continues to read Think and Grow Rich over and
over again as well as other personal growth books when others are
reading romance fiction.
It’s the Warrior who continues to stay plugged into Mentoring for
Free calls and company calls.
It’s the Warrior who writes Think and Grow Rich lessons week after
week after week allowing the concepts to sink deeper into the sub-
conscious mind.
It’s the Warrior who retreats into her office to write a blog, post
Instagram pictures or watch a Periscope by business leaders, while
others in the house are watching movies.
It’s the Warrior who continues to Dream when others say,
“Network marketing doesn’t work for me.”
The FAITH part of network marketing cannot be underestimated.
When nurtured day by day, week by week, year by year, it grows
and expands, vanquishing doubt and disbelief.
Faith. Always. Triumphs.

Why You Need A Red Hot Burning Desire
This is a direct quote from a "lesson" that I posted in our 30 Day Mental Cleanse forum :
CHAPTER 2 (Think And Grow Rich, Napoleon Hill)
DESIRE
THE STARTING POINT OF ALL ACHIEVEMENT
The First Step toward Riches
"Desire is the key to motivation, but it's determination and commitment to an unrelenting pursuit of your goal - a
commitment to excellence - that will enable you to attain the success you seek." Mario Andretti
To want something or to wish for something is not enough. We need to have a burning desire to succeed. Once we have
developed that all consuming desire to succeed, we will be persistent and succeed. Nothing will stop us, we will be
able to accomplish the seemingly impossible.
A strong enough desire will blow away all obstacles and energize body and soul. A strong desire will not be quenched by
failures and disapointment. So stoke up your desire and keep feeding it so it burns brighter than the sun.
I am grateful to Michael and Linda for creating MFF and the Mental Cleanse.
I am grateful to all who add their brilliance to this mastermind by speaking up and posting lessons.
I am grateful to all who download Success In 10 Steps and allow me to help them grow.
I am grateful to infinite intelligence for providing me with insights and hunches. I had no idea what I was going to
write until I started, then it just flowed.

Clean Out Your House Of Horrors
This is a direct quote from a "lesson" that my good friend Ed Rands posted in our 30 Day Mental Cleanse forum about Chapter 15 of Napoleon Hill's Thank And Grow Rich:
When a person considers something to be valuable, they instinctively protect it.
Most people put their money into a bank because they believe it will be safer there than under their mattress. Important documents are often kept in a safe deposit box, or at least a fire resistant lockbox.
The US government supposedly keeps quite a lot of gold in Fort Knox, a place so well known for its security that it’s become a simile for impenetrable protection.
Corporations keep their research and development behind doors needing key codes, passcards, and biometric scans.
Houses have locking doors and windows. Higher levels of protection can include an alarm system. The top end includes trained dogs and armed guards.
Our mind, particularly our subconscious mind, contains what makes us who we are.
At the physical level, it runs all the autonomic functions that keep your body going. You breathe, your blood flows, your food digests and distributes to every cell without you giving it an aware thought.
It stores the information we’ve decided is useful, or at least might be interesting to share. The facts and figures and tidbits of knowledge.
It stores a lifetime of experiences. The images, the stories, the emotions, the meaning you interpreted from each event.
And it houses the most valuable communication device ever created. A device which can be trained to hear inspiration from the wisest, most powerful force in the universe.
Without my mind, I’d cease to be me. I’d cease to be anything but dead in an incredible hurry.
Sounds incredibly valuable to me. So why is it that so few take any precautions to protect it?
The untrained masses of the world treat their mind like an unguarded house. The gate is off its hinges, the door is flapping in the wind, and the windows are broken. Every bit of rubbish and riff-raff has taken up residence or at least shown up as an unwelcomed guest.
On the couch, seething and foam at the mouth sits Hatred.
Greed is staring out the window at the neighbor’s house, plotting how to take some of their things without being caught.
Superstition is in the kitchen, freaking out because a black cat just jumped onto the table, causing him to stumble backwards and tip over the salt shaker.
Out in the garage, revenge is sharpening a knife to a razor's edge.
Upstairs, anger is punching holes in the wall with bloodied knuckles.
Pacing around the living room is a hideous green monster of jealousy, ranting about how it should all be his.
What’s that rattling the closet door? Ahh, there it is. As the closet door is opened, Fear scrambles as far back into a dark corner as it can manage.
No protection, no security, no guard. These unwanted guests just sauntered, crawled or scurried in because nothing stopped them.
And that special communication system? It’s hiding under a tarp, shut down, unused and forgotten.
After reading chapter 12 of Think and Grow Rich, along with the rest of the rest of the book and the Mental Cleanse program, we are being educated on the critical value of our subconscious mind, and how important it is that it be guarded.
To put the gate back on the hinges, latch but not lock the door, fix the windows, and begin to systematically drive out the unwanted guests.
We’re being taught how to set and train the guard at the gate. A guard with a very specific list of positivity to allow to take up residence.
Desire seeks entrance. It’s wearing work clothes and comes running up to the gate. It’s radiating so much heat, it could set the place on fire. That’s okay, it’s a good kind of fire. Come on in.
In the bedroom, where it has been used and degraded, Sex is cleaning itself up and making itself truly alluring once more.
Enthusiasm climbs up onto the roof and shouts, “Woo-hoo! Let’s do this!”
Hope is in the backyard, pointing out the most beautiful sunrise ever seen, and how it’s the beginning of the most incredible day ever.
Romance has taken a seat on the patio, where it’s inspired to write a poem about how that sunrise just does not compare to the radiance of its lover’s beauty.
Faith is going about, quietly but confidently assuring everyone that the rebuilding can be done, that the dream and vision are possible.
Finally, as Fear is sent packing, Love comes up from the basement where it’s been locked away. The energy from it is incredible as it runs around hugging everyone, offering words of encouragement and getting to know everyone, building strong relationships.
Meanwhile, the special communication device is uncovered, cleaned off, plugged back in, turned on and tuned in. The volume knob doesn’t go very high, but when the house is still and peaceful, a voice can be heard offering inspiration, ideas and suggestions for an even better rebuild.
Solomon wrote “guard your heart, for out of it spring the issues of life.” Set up your guards, drive out the vermin and the riff-raff, perfect the protection system, and call in the incredible new residents longing to make a home in your mind.

On the couch, seething and foam at the mouth sits Hatred.
Greed is staring out the window at the neighbor’s house, plotting how to take some of their things without being caught.
Superstition is in the kitchen, freaking out because a black cat just jumped onto the table, causing him to stumble backwards and tip over the salt shaker.
Out in the garage, revenge is sharpening a knife to a razor's edge.
Upstairs, anger is punching holes in the wall with bloodied knuckles.
Pacing around the living room is a hideous green monster of jealousy, ranting about how it should all be his.
What’s that rattling the closet door? Ahh, there it is. As the closet door is opened, Fear scrambles as far back into a dark corner as it can manage.
No protection, no security, no guard. These unwanted guests just sauntered, crawled or scurried in because nothing stopped them.
And that special communication system? It’s hiding under a tarp, shut down, unused and forgotten.
After reading chapter 12 of Think and Grow Rich, along with the rest of the rest of the book and the Mental Cleanse program, we are being educated on the critical value of our subconscious mind, and how important it is that it be guarded.
To put the gate back on the hinges, latch but not lock the door, fix the windows, and begin to systematically drive out the unwanted guests.
We’re being taught how to set and train the guard at the gate. A guard with a very specific list of positivity to allow to take up residence.
Desire seeks entrance. It’s wearing work clothes and comes running up to the gate. It’s radiating so much heat, it could set the place on fire. That’s okay, it’s a good kind of fire. Come on in.
In the bedroom, where it has been used and degraded, Sex is cleaning itself up and making itself truly alluring once more.
Enthusiasm climbs up onto the roof and shouts, “Woo-hoo! Let’s do this!”
Hope is in the backyard, pointing out the most beautiful sunrise ever seen, and how it’s the beginning of the most incredible day ever.
Romance has taken a seat on the patio, where it’s inspired to write a poem about how that sunrise just does not compare to the radiance of its lover’s beauty.
Faith is going about, quietly but confidently assuring everyone that the rebuilding can be done, that the dream and vision are possible.
Finally, as Fear is sent packing, Love comes up from the basement where it’s been locked away. The energy from it is incredible as it runs around hugging everyone, offering words of encouragement and getting to know everyone, building strong relationships.
Meanwhile, the special communication device is uncovered, cleaned off, plugged back in, turned on and tuned in. The volume knob doesn’t go very high, but when the house is still and peaceful, a voice can be heard offering inspiration, ideas and suggestions for an even better rebuild.
Solomon wrote “guard your heart, for out of it spring the issues of life.” Set up your guards, drive out the vermin and the riff-raff, perfect the protection system, and call in the incredible new residents longing to make a home in your mind.

The Brain -- Such A Marvel
This is a direct quote from a "lesson" that I posted in our 30 Day Mental Cleanse forum :
CHAPTER 13 (Think And Grow Rich -- Napoleon Hill)
THE BRAIN: A BROADCASTING AND RECEIVING STATION FOR THOUGHT
The Twelfth Step toward Riches
The brain is a marvellous thing. In my opinion, no man made device could ever match it.
The brain consists of two parts, the voluntary and the involuntary. The involuntary part of the brain controls the functions required to keep us alive such as breathing and our heart beat. We can control our breathing to a certain extent. You can hold your breath for a while but eventually the involuntary will force you to breathe again. The involuntary part is programmed as soon as its functions are required by the growing fetus.
The voluntary part of the brain is a blank slate and must be programmed through trial and error. Witness the tot trying to walk for the first time. He learns the use some piece of furniture to stand up and hang on to for a few tentative steps. She will eventually let go and attempt a few steps on her own and fall down. By repeating this process time after time, he will eventually be able to take more and more steps so that eventually he will cross the room. In the process, the brain is learning what works best and uses this knowledge to improve performance.
This process is evident throughout our life. That is how we learn to ride a bike, drive a car, play a sport, solve puzzles. We use trial and error and practice. Theory will not help you much, practice is the only way to really learn anything. This means that no matter who you are, you can learn anything you set your mind to. Yes, there will be a lot of failure and frustration at the beginning. Michael Jordan became great because he practised and practised and practised until he became really good and even then he practised some more.
You can apply this to anything in your life, saying your self talk, talking to your students, leaving phone messages, etc.
The point here is that our brain learns through doing things over and over and over again. It learns from the mistakes it makes.
Of course, what makes the brain so marvelous is that it is also a receiving and broadcasting station for thoughts.
I am grateful to Michael and Linda for all they do to help the thousands who have the courage to grow into the person they were meant to be.
I am grateful to all who participate in the MFF calls and add their energy to the mastermind so that we can all re-energize.
I am grateful to all who download STS and allow me to help them grow into the person they were meant to be.

The Power Of "I AM"!!!
This is a direct quote from a "lesson" that My good friend Steve Porter posted in our 30 Day Mental Cleanse forum :
This week I finished reading one of the best books I have ever found! The book
is entitled "The Power Of I Am" by Joel Osteen. The underlying principle of this
book is that "Whatever follows the words 'I Am' will eventually find you"!
Michael Dlouhy has consistently taught us that the secret to his and Linda's
success in network marketing is their "self talk" or their "I Am's".
So, I have been practicing some new "I Am's" while reading Joel Osteen's book.
And, I want to share them with you.
I Am becoming debt-free and financially free!
I Am attracting leaders into my business easily and consistently!
I Am attracting customers into my business easily and consistently!
With my network marketing business, I Am helping others to achieve their dreams!
With my network marketing business, I Am giving others real hope for a
better future!
I Am becoming the best student of the network marketing profession!
I Am a Professional Network Marketer and I Am very proud of that fact!
I Am loyal to Michael and Linda Dlouhy and to the Mentoring For Free system!
I Am a child of the Most High God!
I Am able to accomplish anything I set my mind to!
I Am the owner of my mind, my time, and my life!
I Am finding that when I contact e-book downloads they are happy I contacted them!
I Am attracting quality e-book downloads who send me their "Why"!
I Am having fun building my network marketing business!
I Am having fun sharing my network marketing business with others!
I see a great similarity between Michael and Linda's "self talk" and Joel and
Victoria Osteen's "I Am"!
This "self-talk" and "I Am" stuff really works! Try it for yourself!
Steve Porter, Hannibal, Missouri, USA!Thank You Steve for allowing me to repost your brilliance.
