successfully bring about change in our lives we need to implement a system
of change that is build upon three assumptions. First Assumption: We change
our lives by changing the attitudes of our minds. Second Assumption: We
become what we think about all day long. Third Assumption: Our mind is
naturally goal seeking. Please remember these assumptions. Our mind is
always trying to accomplish something. We have a powerful machine wanting
to achieve goals. It will set the goals that we allow it to. Note: For
