This frequency attracts things (people, situations, results) that also operate at a similar frequency. By learning to control your energy, you can control what you attract to yourself.
Fact, Fiction & Biases

Our actual decision making is far from scientific, and is subject to a whole variety of biases, external influences, emotions, psychological and other factors that often have little to do with a logical interpretation of information at hand.
Massive Action
To achieve extraordinary levels of success in your life, it is essential that you are prepared to take Massive Action and operate at levels of action that are far beyond average. Massive Action creates a momentum of it’s own, that makes virtually anything achievable.
Non-fiction
Writing non-fiction is a different skill from writing fiction, and works most effectively when you focus on writing that can help a person achieve a desired outcome.
Commitment & Perseverance
Perseverance is the continued effort to do or achieve something despite difficulties, failure, or opposition. You are sure to come up against obstacles, challenges, doubts and failures as you progress towards your goals. People who succeed persevere with their efforts no matter how hard the challenges, while others give up on their dreams once the going gets too tough.
