1. Believe
The first key to unleashing your mind power is to simply claim it.
Many people don’t believe they possess extraordinary mind powers and as a result, they inadvertently keep them dormant. Belief in yourself and your capabilities is the most important factor in harnessing your incredible mental gifts.
“Magic is believing in yourself. If you can do that, you can make anything happen.” ~ Foka Gomez
You don’t believe you have mental powers? Try this challenge for a week…
Before you begin each day, simply create it in your mind first. Think of your day exactly the way you would like it to be. Write a list of things you would like to see happen in a journal or notebook for each day.
For example, if you have an upcoming meeting, see it first in your minds eye exactly how you want it to go. Carry these thoughts and pictures with you as you go about your day. Try not to negate them with negative or fearful thinking.
Eventually, you will begin to see a pattern emerge; a pattern which you had a hand in creating! At the end of the week, you will be amazed at how really powerful you are in creating your own reality. Many of the things you wrote in your journal will have transpired.
“Every person is the creation of himself, the image of his own thinking and believing. As individuals think and believe, so they are.” ~ Claude M. Bristol
2. Be Focused
Many people say they understand mental principles like the law of attraction and positive thinking, but one day they’re thinking about one thing, the next day about something else and a week later, they’re involved with something completely different.
Is it any wonder why people don’t get the results they want? People who exhibit strong mental powers have an uncanny ability to concentrate. They’re not scattered or indecisive like most people. If they have a goal, it’s usually sharp, clear-cut and definite.
For example, if they need a certain amount of money, they’re focused on the actual amount and specific steps required to acquire it. Concentration is crucial to harnessing your mental powers …and getting the results you seek.
“Ninety percent of my game is mental. It’s my concentration that has gotten me this far.” ~ Chris Evert
How does one go about developing concentration? By waking up more of your idle brain cells.
“Most of our high-talent brain cells never wake up of their own accord, but remain sleeping slackers and go with us to our graves, unless some emotional experiences wakes them up …develops them.
The most valuable thing that can come into anyone’s life is that book, that proverb, that experience, that person, that emergency or incident that introduces a man or woman to his or her inner unknown powers.” ~ Frank Tibolt, author of A Touch of Greatness.
One excellent way to develop concentration is by writing. In fact, writing forces us to think. It has ten times the power to force us to concentrate and think accurately, exactly, and meaningfully as mere talking or silent pondering.
Forcing yourself to write harnesses a group of brain cells to produce thoughts. If you have a challenging problem or situation, write about it and try to figure it out. You’ll be amazed at what you can accomplish by focusing your thoughts as you write. But by far the best way to develop concentration and your mind powers is by meditating…
3. Meditate
One thing I found interesting about the Ice Man was that he meditated a lot. Whenever he needed to warm up his body temperature, he became engrossed in thought. By focusing and concentrating on positive thoughts, he was also able to revitalize his dead frozen toes, as I mentioned.
Meditation is a powerful tool for developing your mental powers. Why? Because meditation creates a gateway to your subconscious mind. As any psychologist or personal development expert will tell you…
“All personal changes must take place at the subconscious level.”
“It is in the Silence that you get into touch with the Omnipotent power of the subconscious mind from which all power is evolved.” ~ Charles Haanel
In order to unlock your full human potential – the greatness within you – you must learn how to harness and re-direct your brain’s incredible powers. You must be able to shift your state of mind into optimal patterns of thinking and consciousness.
It is in these optimal mind states where magic and miracles can happen. Only through meditation and contemplation can your reach this place of unlimited mind power.

Each of us is born with a vast potential for achievement.
We truly do have unfathomable mind powers at our disposal. How we choose to use and develop our minds, is the one of the biggest factors for our success or failure.
We have the choice to accept life as it happens to us, or we can use our superhuman mind powers to mold and shape it to the way we want it to be.
Let’s face it that we all want to be liked. In business circles, you usually only have one chance to build a relationship from the first encounter.
