Over the years I’ve learned that personal development is paramount to success. Today I’ll begin a 30 day Mental Cleanse that I’ve been told is truly a life changing experience.  I’m really looking forward to taking this next step on my journey to becoming … my best self.

While on the Mental Cleanse we’ll be reading, “Think and Grow Rich” by Napoleon Hill and making notes of anything that resonates.  We’ll then be doing a “Master Mind Coaching” call Every Wednesday evening where we'll share lessons learned as we read each chapter, starting at chapter one and ending with chapter Fifteen. 

Since the Cleanse is on-going, there’s no need to wait to start on chapter one.  Any time you feel like jumping in is the perfect time!  Just sign in at http://30daycleanse.com and let the cleansing begin!  (If you contact me I can send you an E-book and audio version of the book.)

Here’s my sharing inspired by Chapter 1 – “Thoughts are Things”

“Thoughts are powerful things when they are mixed with definiteness of purpose, persistence, and a burning desire for their translation into riches, or other material objects.”

I bet I read that line 6 or 7 times before I was able to go on reading.  I realized that even in my inexperience, on some level I knew this.  I've practiced this, but never have I had it stated so succinctly. 

I grew up poor, sharing a bedroom with 4 sibling; the twins on the queen size pull out sofa-bed with me, and my brother and older sister sharing a bunk bed.  But my dreams were anything but poor.  I had the ability to make myself dream just about anything I wanted, and boy did I dream big!  I dreamt about the home I was going to live in, the great car I would drive, and all of the beautiful clothes I would wear.

My mother would tell my grandmother, aunt, friends, or anyone else who would listen, “She’s just like her father, always trying to have the best of everything.”  She would tell me that my ideas were too big and that I didn’t know my place.  I knew my place, but it was clear to me that my place wasn't living within the limitations and fears she had placed on her life.

I didn’t understand the power of being able to have that level of control over my subconscious mind.  All I knew was that if I prepared to receive what I desired, and thought long and hard enough, knowing without a doubt I would succeed, then I did succeed. 

Although I still practice this to an extent, it's not as easy as it was in my youth.  Perhaps that’s because life is so much larger and more complex with so many more moving parts.

But I will say this; putting these thoughts on paper gives them strength.  It makes me even more excited to be starting this Mental Cleanse.  I’m looking forward to quieting the mental chatter, gaining focus, and manifesting my desires.
