From idea to self fullfilled prophesy

Have you ever had a millionaire idea and sat on it? A year goes by and you are in a far off city, and there is someone profiting from your idea. I remember reading about this in Tony Robbins first book.

It is in a way what the Movie the Secret was all about.

Robbins points out that in a study about living connections, researchers killed a mother bunny. On a far off remote location they measured the reactions from the offspring of this "murdered" mother bunny.  The remarkable thing is that these babies reacted quite measurably on the research instruments.

He wrote about monkeys on an island discovered a new food source by digging into the sand. Never had this species ever ate this particular food.  It was not long before the same species of monkey was eating the same food on other far off islands.

Ideas somehow transmit to others across distance. This is not meant to be an esoteric discussion. I am really leading to a point that we in the electronic media have a voice. Like it or not if you blog, you are a thought leader. Which way are you leading is the question?

If you would like to see how it works, just distance yourself from your political point of view and watch as the influential on either side spread an idea. It is quite remarkable. And pretty soon these ideas become fact.

I believe markets follow ideas. Your home sales are born from perception.

The problem I have with the DVD The Secret is that they left one of the key ingredients out. That ingredient is WORK. Sure visualizing helps, but working your butt off is essential. Have a plan and WORK your plan.

By the way, The Secret was a slick piece of marketing that probably pulled in some serious moola. That is what should be studied.

God Bless!

Perception is important. When most or all of the current media tells us that are homes are worth less, people believe it and bid lower. Lenders believe it and lend less. It happens in the stock market on a day to day basis.
