Setting the Context:   

Universal Application:   Although the text below is written as though I were writing abut myself, the process applies to all of us without exception.

What I Am:   The first step in success is understanding who and what I am.   I am an eternal divine being made of something or no-thing that expresses itself as consciousness.  

What I am Not:    I am NOT a physical body made of cell, organs, tissues and the like.   I wear a body, similar to the way a physical body wears clothes.

The Art of Being Success:  

What Success Is Not:    Success is not a destination.   It's not something out there in the future.  

Success is a state being.   That state of being is also the state of becoming.   I consider myself to be on a daily journey of discovery.   What am I discovering?   I am discovering knowledge / wisdom / consciousness.   I am discovering differences about which I was previously unaware.   I am discovering in myself what which I used to believe was only out there in the physical world.

I am a becoming being.   I am becoming aware that I am a being in a constant state of becoming.   I am becoming aware that I am a becoming being.   I'm now aware that nothing is static -- that everything is constantly in the state of becoming something more than it is/was.   I am constantly in the state of expansion.   I am constantly in the state of becoming.   I am a becoming being. 

What Is The I Am?"   What and who is  The "I" --  "The I Am,"  that is constantly expanding and becoming?   The "I Am" is an eternal, divine being of ever-expanding consciousness.   The "I Am" also a divine being experiencing it's divinity inside a physical body inside a physical universe.  

The Engine of Success   It is consciousness,  focus, and emotion that are constantly producing my physical experiences.   I am a co-creator constantly creating by my thoughts, beliefs attitudes, expectations and the like.   My feelings and my emotions are my access to the energy of creation.  

I Am Constantly Creating.   That is the nature of what I am.   I cannot turn off my power of creation.   I can only direct it or allow it to run by the default programming built into our subconscious minds.   The evidence indicates that my default programming is significantly different from what it was when I entered this physical body.   The evidence also indicates that my default programming is infinitely changeable.

Becoming Success:   My intention is not to be successful or to accomplish any goals.   My intention is to be success.   In order to be, do, have, create, express, and/or experience something I do NOT start by going into the physical world and doing something.   I first become that something which I choose to experience and then the universe turns it into my physical experience.  

How to Become Success:   Inside my mind, I become that something which I choose to experience.   I become that something by my thoughts, my beliefs, my attitudes, my mental focus,.   I become that something by by my intentions, my declarations, my commitment, by my trust in the laws of the universe, and by trusting in my own ability.   I become that something by feeling safe in my new state of being  --  by knowing what it feels like to be in my new state of being  --  by being grateful for what is  --  by being willing to let go of the old to make room for the new.  

I become that something by understanding I am worthy and that my worthiness is my natural state of being.   I become that being by understanding that I can be, do, have, create, express, and/or experience my success without taking anything from anybody else.   I become that being by understanding that struggling is a dysfunctional belief that got programmed into my subconscious when I was a very small child.   I become success by letting go of struggle and replacing it with grace and ease.   What will I have to give up in order to physically experience my new state of being?   Am I willing to give up what I must give up?  

A Few More Questions:   I examine the reasons why I am becoming what I've chosen to be.   Is this really what I want?   What will come with by new state of being?   Am I ready for these changes?  What do I regret or resent or feel guilty or angry about?    Do I have faith in myself, faith in my process, and faith that the Universal laws and principles actually function?  

Am I willing to let go of my regrets, resents, and anger?   Am I willing to forgive myself and others?   Have I "planted" respect, honor, gratitude.   How and where does love fit into this picture?   Do I like myself.   Do I love myself?  

What are my expectations.   How do I feel Right now?   My intention is to vibrate in harmony with my intended state of being.   Am I vibrating in harmony with my stated intention?   (See the page titled:  Feelings as Vibrations.  

Experiencing Success:   As I am internally becoming my intention, I also step into the physical portion of the creation process.  I take actions that moves me toward the place, conditions, and circumstances that favor success.   In other words, both internally and externally, I'm setting myself up for success.  

The Bottom Line:   The bottom line is that success is NOT an accident.   Success in NOT an activity.   Success is a state of being that manifests NOT from actions but while in action.   The action holds the focus of consciousness on the intended experience.   It is the focus with emotion that allows Creator/God/The Universe to produce the experience.   The physical activity, the place where you are, and the circumstances you are in are the context within which creator creates your experience.  

My job is to create myself as my success and then, to the best of my ability, to place my physical self in the appropriate place, activity, and circumstances.
