The secret to getting exactly what you want from life —
from the man who has!
A businessman who has built up, owned and sold software
companies, a nightclub, a bed and breakfast (plus a couple of
alehouses), author Robin Nixon knows that worldly success has
little to do with the world. It begins with one’s self–and
one’s deepest thoughts. When altered, your thoughts have the
ability to impact your behavior and immediate universe, and,
indeed, your destiny. Known as ‘Creative Visualization, ‘ this
powerfully simple tool has adherents as well known as Oprah
Winfrey. In Creative Visualization For Dummies, Robin Nixon
gives you the practical tools for pinpointing your goals, becoming
more assertive and self-confident, and increasing energy levels and
creativity–while on a new journey of self-fulfillment.
* Includes useful visualization techniques and exercises that
help you tune into the mind/body connection
* Offers psychological approaches that allow you to take real
steps towards success and happiness
For those interested in finding a new direction or finally
creating their own luck, this tell-all guide–from the man
who’s capitalized on its secrets–will offer an inspiring game
plan for a new beginning.
