Hello, Erron!

Congratulations on manifesting such a wonderful exchange! Isn't it great when stuff like that happens? As you master the principles of the Science of Getting Rich, you will notice this sort of thing happening more and more. It feels like magic!

As for your question: Rebecca does address this in the course. When you get to it, she will guide you through the process of creating your Clear Mental Image (CMI.)

The short answer, though, is no. You do not necessarily need to visualize an exact amount of money. Although for some people it does seem to help.

The trick is to find something that makes you feel really good. Each person is different, but for YOU, I recommend that you focus on the feeling you want of the ultimate goal -- the life you want.

Success at trading seems to be an intermediary goal -- what you think you need to have BEFORE you get what you really want. In SOGR, we call this "managing the how." We try to avoid micromanaging HOW things come about because the universe knows far better than we do how to accomplish your goals. If you insist that things must happen YOUR way, then you may not be noticing or you may even be actively resisting much easier ways for you to get what you really want.

For instance, when you canceled your premium service, there was no way you could have known that it would result in an exchange offer, could you? So just keep in mind that stuff like that happens all the time to students of the SOGR. You could manifest your ideal life in some way other than trading. That would be okay with you, wouldn't it?

Keep posting!

Love and blessings,
Rachel

I'm now on lab 14

Erron, welcome to the course and the forum.

Now I'm going to put on my coach hat (no horns like the poobah hat) to say this: You're not really doing the course at all. You're stuffing info into your head and that is so NOT what this course is about. It's about taking your time and letting YOUR answers arise from within.

I notice you just signed up for the course on August 30. Today is Sept. 6. LifeLab 8 all by itself takes a full week to complete. And the instructions are to do no more than 1 session/LifeLab a day, preferably taking several days for each one.

Remember what Wally says: "There is never any hurry on the creative plane ... When you get out of the competitive mind you will understand
that you never need to act hastily."

Rushing through this course really robs it of power, so please do slow down. Start over and follow the directions. Nothing in here is actually difficult unless you make it so. Struggle is unnecessary and self-defeating. Relax into all of this; that's where the real "magic" is.

Also, here's a question for you. You say your life up 'til now has been one of service/servitude. How are you defining those two terms? I ask because they are miles apart. Service is a wonderful thing and, I believe, a big part of succeeding with joy and delight. Servitude, on the other hand, not so much -- but it's really just an attitude.

The reason I didn't spend a week on it is because I don't listen to radio, hardly ever watch television and only skim read the morning newspaper for things like the weather report and general business outlook for the upcoming session of trading.

OK, so how about you back up and let go of your reasons for not doing the news fast? (Is it 9 instead of 8?) We can always find reasons! But this course is about making SHIFTS, so do the news fast for a week with no skimming, no weather report, no nothing.

And if you resist doing that, just notice your resistance and get curious about it. What story are you telling yourself and believing about why you need to check those things? Habit is a fascinating thing.
