The secret to getting exactly what you want from life -- from the man who has!
A businessman who has built up, owned and sold software companies, a nightclub, a bed and breakfast (plus a couple of alehouses), author Robin Nixon knows that worldly success has little to do with the world. It begins with one's self--and one's deepest thoughts. When altered, your thoughts have the ability to impact your behavior and immediate universe, and, indeed, your destiny. Known as "Creative Visualization," this powerfully simple tool has adherents as well known as Oprah Winfrey. In Creative Visualization For Dummies, Robin Nixon gives you the practical tools for pinpointing your goals, becoming more assertive and self-confident, and increasing energy levels and creativity--while on a new journey of self-fulfillment.
* Includes useful visualization techniques and exercises that help you tune into the mind/body connection
* Offers psychological approaches that allow you to take real steps towards success and happiness
For those interested in finding a new direction or finally creating their own luck, this tell-all guide--from the man who's capitalized on its secrets--will offer an inspiring game plan for a new beginning.
