One morning, I was in the shower when I had a realization that changed my life. I realized that you can say motivational statements or "affirmations" 'til the cows come home – but still never believe the positive things you're saying to yourself.

Recently I was looking at my bank statements. I noticed that I've made more money in the last 90 days than I made all of last year. I started thinking about the things that got me here and why so few people get to experience true financial freedom.

I wrote down a few simple questions and did a couple of mental exercises. Within about 3 minutes, I thought about all the people who helped me get to where I am, and how I didn't even know them until very recently. Keep in mind, these are massively successful, rich people. And now they're helping me live the life of my dreams.

Other people struggle, work hard, and sacrifice for years— and usually wind up with nothing but lots of debt and feeling bad about themselves. I used to feel that way, too. But now I'm able to put things together to where I'm financially free and living a life most people only dream of. The question is: How did I do it?

If you would have asked me if this was even possible a few years ago, I would have said "No way." But now things seem to fall into place for me all the time. It's not uncommon for me to go to a networking event with very successful people and end up with 3 or 4 business leaders who really want to help me achieve my dreams.

For example, I recently attended a business conference in Los Angeles with people making $5 million to $20 million a year – and ended up with a stack of business cards of people who wanted to help ME get where I wanted.

I have to mention one more thing: I'm a regular guy. I'm 40 years old, of average intelligence, and grew up in a lower middle class family. I don't work particularly hard, I don't tell jokes, and I'm not that great at "sales"— I've always been a little on the quiet side when meeting new people.

So how did I go from being barely making ends meet to now being able to live the life most people only dream of?

One morning, I was in the shower when I had a realization that changed my life. I realized that you can say motivational statements or "affirmations" 'til the cows come home – but still never believe the positive things you're saying to yourself.

That's what most people do. They see movies like "The Secret" and think all they have to do is say a bunch of positive things and their lives will magically turn around. Except the real world doesn't work that way. There is no "genie" that comes out of a bottle and plops what you want on your doorstep. But there is another way - and it's actually ten times easier than what you're currently doing...Find out what it is in the Little Book of Afformations.
