In the airplane, I had a great reflection about my life, where I was and how significantly it had improved. I looked at the pace at which I was able to turn my dreams into my present-day life. At that moment, I couldn\u2019t help feeling an extraordinary sense of gratitude and wonder and, at the same time, many questions began running through my mind.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">How did I create the life of my dreams? Some questions that came to my mind were: \u201cHow was it that this twenty-seven-year-old-guy, within a short period after graduating from the university and in an environment where millions of young guys complain bitterly of unemployment and poverty, could have accomplished so much? After all, this is a guy who did not have any connections with the government or multinational companies that pay huge salaries. How did he go from a graduate who hawked books from school to school to a successful, respected individual with great relationships with high caliber people all over the world and with the opportunity for unlimited success? How did he relocate from his parents\u2019 house to a self-built big apartment, become blessed with a beautiful and loving wife, and have all the basic needs of life provided in a short period?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">It\u2019s the power of dreams! The power to wonderfully transform our lives into our greatest dreams lies waiting within us all! On July 20th, 2007, I graduated from the university, not only with a certificate in Business Administration but with Great Dreams for a very bright future. I dreamed of and pursued a life of good health, wealth, and happiness, including a beautiful home, a beautiful and loving wife as well as children, and a noble and impactful career. My greatest dream is to be a source of motivation for millions of young Africans. This is the kind of life I live today. With gratitude in my heart, I live the life of my dreams.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">A great life always begins with a dream. \u201cAs a man thinketh, so he is.\u201d What you think about your life will materialize some day. All accomplishments stem from the dreams that courageous people convert into reality. Your dreams are what you want out of life or what you desire to achieve with your God-given life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The fact is we live in a time where many people are able to achieve incredible things almost overnight, to achieve successes that would have been unimaginable. It only requires a dream that you have and cherish.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">What do you really want to achieve or do with your life? What do you enjoy doing? What are you good at? What will you have achieved or accomplished i n your life in two, four, six\u2026 25 years to come? Let these questions guide you in writing your dreams for life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Dream BIG! Don\u2019t settle for less. Don\u2019t allow your family background or weakness pull you down. Focus your thoughts and energy on your dreams. And someday you will see yourself celebrating the fulfillment of your dreams. Let this Pocket Mentor reinforce this in you all the time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong>What Our Students Are Saying<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">David Akomolafe (Nigeria)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Now, I have acknowledged the fact that you can\u2019t change others or conditions of your lives except you start to change from the inside. I have already started working on my Individuality by daily examining myself, getting conscious of what thoughts are running in my mind. Each day, I get myself doing something worthwhile, constructively aware of my approach to life. It will also help me to handle boredom, fear and anger by meditating on who I am at every point in time. I also have to affirm what I so much have strong conviction on: by creating autosuggestions positive ones for that matter. Furthermore, it will help in handling whatever task or project before me without losing focus that comes from listening to all the trivia talk of everyday life; knowing that there is no problem out there save the one I invent. It will help me in thinking of the glory that awaits every worthy cause and discards the dreading oddities I will experience in the process. Talk is cheap; so I will see to it that I engage Myself in laying my hands doing something to expand my mental horizon, studying more to hone my skill and above all said, create quality time with my creator who is the author and finisher of my faith. He is everything my eyes can see, handle, spanning to extra terrestrials, nature and host of angels.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong>Students In Action<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Kishor Bajracharya, (Nepal)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">IIGL graduate, Kishor Bajracharya, from Nepal recently coordinated the &#8220;Lalitpur Cooperative Festival 2012.\u201d The festival was sponsored by the Lalitpur Federation of Cooperative Societies, which represent 13 coops in the region.

A clinical psychologist who once lost $35,000 in a fraudulent investment scheme, Nemeth learned from that ordeal how most of us develop relationships with money and the ways in which we subsequently can bring these in line with our actual dreams and realities. She initially used this knowledge to start a workshop called You and Money, which eventually attracted more than 4,500 participants and led to the development of concepts now delineated in this book. Nemeth sets out &#8220;12 principles for personal fulfillment&#8221; designed to help readers &#8220;uncover the hidden landscape of beliefs, behavior patterns, and habits that underlie and sometimes subvert how you use money and other forms of energy.&#8221; The result is a refreshing, useful, and surprisingly accessible mixture of universal financial advice and the much rarer&#8211;but no less important&#8211;ethereal side of fiscal self-management. This powerhouse guide to prosperity presents twelve principles that will help you to:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">* Uncover the hidden landscape of beliefs, patterns, and habits that underlie and sometimes subvert your everyday use of money and personal resources<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">* Tame the dragons of driven behavior and busyholism<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">* Defuse fears of deprivation and scarcity<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">* Embrace and work through paradox and confusion<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">* Consciously focus your money energy<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">* Clear yourself to receive the energy and support of others and the universe<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">* Develop and stay on your personal path to abundance<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Through easy-to-follow exercises and meditations, effective worksheets, and other interactive processes, Dr. Nemeth will guide you to financial success and help you manifest your special contribution to the world.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Valuable Resources for Personal &amp; Planetary Transformation<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">What The Bleep<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">whatthebleep.com<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Are you ready for a spiritual film that combines quantum physics, multi-dimensional visual effects and animation, a dramatic story and interviews with leading scientists and mystics?

They are teens. From there I devoted to work with adolescent girls. When I get chance to visit a classroom, I talk with the teens on their mental and physical development. There, try to make understanding on their energy in social development. If get chance to do something freely, at first I should do for young. I should make the questions with the help of teens for where their needs and how we can use them in social development. Most of the teens are abuse their time and energy in silly matters .They cannot use their time in appropriately. I will be create a global group by teens who will be self motivated and they will create the same. Survival groups make me interest with them. I feel interest doing something for the children. For the younger, this is the period of ravenous reading. I studied the novel hide from view of parents. My parents did not like to study others without school materials. I can pass free time in anywhere with books. In any long journey I feel comfort with reading books. Dolls House is one of my favorite books. Folk tales is also attractive topic to me.

Always biographies of any people make my attraction to study.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Noel Enobong Eniefio (Nigeria)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">I am Noel Enobong Eniefiok.

We are calling this Dream Team 22 and our goal is to have 220 people contributing $22 per month. We understand that money is energy and that to sustain and build IIGL we need a lot of people pouring their energy into this endeavor on a regular basis. We also know that not everyone can afford to commit $22 a month \u2013 especially our students, who live in countries with economies in which this amount can be equal to a weeks salary. So we are offering two options for those who wish to become a part of the Dream Team. One can commit to a $22 a month contribution or to spending 22 seconds each day holding the vision of IIGL becoming financially sustainable by the end of 2009.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">contact Michael for details: lightweave@aol.com<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Checks on US banks, payable to the International Institute For Global Leadership, can be mailed to PO Box 18909, Asheville, NC. 28814, USA.
