Magnetic People
Later in the book we will also explore the magnetism of people, for not only are foods magnetic, but people are magnetic as well. We have all heard the term magnetic personality. People who possess a magnetic personality are said to be popular and are able to attract people to them. Well the truth is we all have magnetic personalities as we are always attracting people to us. The question is what type of magnetism do the people whom we attract to us have? Do they have a healthy magnetism? Or do they have a disease magnetism? Do they have a success magnetism? Or do they have a magnetism towards failure. Later in the book, we will explore why “right company” or spending time with people who are achieving the results that you want to achieve is one of the most important aspects to being successful on your life path.
This book is divided into two main parts. Part One is about what I believe are the most important components to success in any endeavor and that is preparing yourself so that you can be successful. Steven Covey the great personal development author and speaker has a great term for it; he calls it, “Sharpening the saw”. In Part One of this book we will learn how to sharpen our saw so we can cut down the obstacles to our success.
In Part One, we will also learn how to control our cravings. For most people, cravings and the inability to control them are the biggest obstacles to success on any diet. How do we get past the cravings? How do we get beyond the craving’s ability to take us off track? In Part One you will learn an incredibly powerful breathing pattern that has been used for centuries by mystics and yogis to control the mind and thus control cravings.
In addition to breath control, we will learn an incredibly effective method of affirmation called chanting, that will help to disengage the mind from its natural negative tendencies of worry, anxiety, and pessimism. Affirmations have been used by many to tune the mind towards an attitude of success and away from negativity and failure consciousness. Chanting is variation on affirmations that makes them easier to use and more effective.
