What's On Your Screensaver ?

Here's a fun, quick tip to help you advance towards and achieve your goals. It's something that will take about 2 minutes to set up and the effects will be long lasting. In fact it's so easy and so simple that most people underestimate the power it has over time.

I have used this little secret with great success many times in my life. I used it to build my first custom home, to buy cars, vacations and to achieve numerous goals. I still use it to this day. It's a no brainer.

Look at your list of goals (if you have not created a written list yet, jump on jotting down some things you want to be, have, give or do).

Next find a picture that represents one of the goals closest to your heart. This could be a picture from a travel brochure, resort, car dealer, boat, an award, a beautiful body you aspire to model yours after, a photo you have taken, anything that makes you say aaaahhh and ooooohhh when you look at it and think of your goal. You can find as many pictures as you want later, but for now stick with one, otherwise it will take longer than it needs to take and turn into an ordeal, rather than a quick and easy action that you can complete today. That's one of the principles of success- take an action now, take an easy step forward and add to it, modify and improve it later.

Sometimes you can download a picture from a web site. Car manufacturers often make these available, hotels do as well. If you cannot download a picture, try to find one somewhere for now that represents or symbolizes your goal. Buy a disposable camera for $6 and take your own pictures. You can take your photo to any Kinkos, Mailboxes etc, Office Max, Office Depot, Staples, etc and for a few bucks, they will scan any photo and either give it to you on disc or email it to you. If you're a computer novice and this seems complicated to you, find a local kid, family member or friend who can help you do this. You have got to get the pictures downloaded on to your computer.

Once the picture is on your computer, here's how you create your own personalized Goal Screensaver:

On your computer
Right click on the blank space of your desktop screen
Left click on Properties
Left click on Screensaver -several options will display
I Left clicked on "My Picture Slideshow" so it displays the all pics I have downloaded on my computer and rotates them -slowly burning the images into my very powerful subconscious mind
Left click Apply
Left click OK

That's it!

As I add more pictures to my computer, they will automatically be added to my Goal Screensaver! I can change it anytime I want.

When you got your computer, someone else programmed your screensaver at the manufacturer. When your computer sits idle for a moment and the screensaver comes on, you're probably looking at a logo for Windows software or whatever. You don't have to be conscious of all the ways the media is programming you, but it's happening.

Why don't you take control and start programming yourself to achieve your dreams and goals. Take control of the images you see when you're working on your computer at home and at work. This will help you motivate yourself and stay focused on what you truly want.

This Goal Screensaver technique will keep working on you and keep programming your subconscious mind without you even realizing it. But it can't work if you don't do this. Little things add up, and there's really no excuse to skip something so simple, yet so powerful. It works if you work it.
