As the title implies, this post is to give a rather short update on the month-long (6 weeks actually) break in USOS activity and more importantly, to assure our readers that we are in fact, still alive and walking on the face of the Earth.
Currently, I am working on a report that tackles the key issues on the Law of Attraction, namely the general misunderstandings of the law and the skepticism surrounding it. The motivation behind this report is spurred by my initial misunderstanding of the Law of Attraction and a desire to discover the mechanism of the Law in a wider social perspective rather than for personal gains only. In short, I’m more interested in the times when the Law seems to fail everybody rather than the times when everyone claims they can find a parking lot whenever they want to.
If you are guessing that this has something to do with the break, bingo. During the writing of this report, I could be reading Hinduism in the morning, Existentialism in the afternoon and quantum physics at night. I was so engrossed in these subjects that time really flies like an arrow. In the end, I had to face the hard fact that I had been away from blogging for a month.
Hence, you can look forward to regular posting again and possibly a new report in the near future.
Yup, that’s about it. Thank you people.

Every business owner wants their business to be a success and perhaps even build an empire from that success. If you really want your business to excel and to achieve every aspiration that you have, do not even think “Failure is not an option,” because as soon as you let that thought crossed your mind you have already opened the door to failure. Your belief must be that “the only option is Success” – the achievement of what you are after.
The way you think and the thoughts that you let into your mind will determine how your life manifests itself. Making sure that you have empowering beliefs will not only change the way you perceive the world around you, but it will also impact the success of your business. Know this: “Always think in the positive.”
Some people may argue that “failure is not an option,” is a positive affirmation, but is it right to say that not wanting to fail means wanting to succeed and hence it is a positive statement? No it isn’t, it is negative and here’s why. When you are carrying that belief, your mind is occupied with “not” landing yourself in “failure”. This means that you are unlikely to rise beyond the level of “not failing”, which is nowhere near the success you want. In more tangible terms, you are settling for anything from 50/100 to 60/100 instead of 90/100 to the perfect 100/100.
“Failure” and “not” carry negative connotations and most mental imageries associated with them are not exactly desirable. Now, the universe works by reading the states of what your thoughts are, so if what you are thinking of is the failure not happening, the universe reads “failure” and you would step right through the door to failure.
Think for one minute which statement makes you feel strong and empowered: “You will not fail!” or “You will succeed!” The second statement should’ve evoked a more positive feeling because what you are thinking about then is “success”. “Success” is the vibration that you are sending out to the world and therefore “success” is what is brought to you by the universe.
Beside holding the correct beliefs for your business, being optimistic about your endeavors are just as important. Having empowering beliefs and being optimistic is a wonderful and highly powerful combination for an entrepreneur. Optimism, together with belief in yourself and your business, will allow the universe to bolster your business. One essential part of the law of attraction is the “Believe” process and being optimistic that your desire is coming is part of the “believing” process. This isn’t just a theory; there are anecdotal evidences that support the fact that optimism is a significant contribution to how successful a person and a business can be. Just think about it, optimism is an ingredient to human evolution (you will have to read further down the article to find the information) and it keeps us going when the tide is against us.
Understand that optimism is not something that you can develop after reading a book or watching a show, it is a habit that we have to pick up. The successful people of the world have not only learned, but mastered it as well.
What does this mean to you, the entrepreneur? It means that your set of beliefs and level of optimism dictates where your business is heading towards. The universe meets the positive vibrations that you are sending out and return more positive things your way. If you don’t seize them, you are wasting energy and you will not be successful.
If you are curious to know whether or not you are an entrepreneur that is using empowering thought to its fullest potential, you can answer the following questions:
Do you have a crystal-clear vision of what you want to achieve and how to do it?
Do you spend a reasonable amount of time you can afford on working towards those visions?
Do you recover fast from every failure and celebrate every success that you have?
Do you remain enthusiastic about your vision after somebody has given you the cold shoulder?
Do you have an air of confidence around you that let others know that you are worthy of success?
If you were able to answer yes to all five questions, you are an optimistic person who knows how to use empowering beliefs to take control of your future and get what you want. If there is a question or two that you have answered “no” to, stop for a moment and figure out what made you said “no.” The purpose of this exercise is for you to better understand how strong your beliefs are and what could be holding you back.
This process is not easy but it is worth it. Empowering beliefs and optimism are necessary attributes to having the universe work with you for the ultimate success of your business.

Here is another article by guest writer, Sharon Reid:
Is there any secret to success? Is there something you need to know that practically guarantees your success?
Oh yes there is!
Have you often wondered if you’re missing the obvious when it comes to being successful? If you’re still trying to achieve the level of success you desire (and most people are), ask yourself if you have been leaving out one vital ingredient.
The one vital ingredient that is the secret to success is: doing something you truly love.
Success can come from nearly anything you do, of course. If you have a solid plan and work consistently to see it through, you’re bound to enjoy some lucrative results. However, the likelihood of sticking to your plans increases by a lot if you’re actually enjoying the journey.
There are many benefits to doing something you love versus something that doesn’t inspire you, but here are a few big ones:
1) First, you’ll automatically give it a stronger level of effort and focus than you would with something that’s unpleasant or tiresome. You’ll avoid the temptation to procrastinate because you’ll actually look forward to working on it. In fact, you’ll be having so much fun with it that it won’t feel like “work” at all!
2) Rather than expecting to see big results from your efforts right away, you’ll see the value in letting the process unfold in its own time. With most goals, you’re focused only on getting it done, reaching the finish line before you experience a sense of satisfaction. When you’re doing something you love, the payoff at the end is just a nice bonus – the true reward comes from each moment you spend working on your labor of love!
3) You’ll have more fun in the process. Have you ever achieved something that was extremely difficult and strenuous? By the time you reached the finish line you were probably too tired and relieved that it was over to fully enjoy the sense of accomplishment you would have felt otherwise. With something you truly love, you’ll have fun the whole way through, and get a much bigger “high” when you finally do achieve it.
Not everyone believes this is so important. History is filled with people who saw an opportunity to be successful at a specific venture, and they put their best effort into it and succeeded – even if they didn’t really “love” what they were doing.
However, those people had something else that’s necessary: commitment and determination to see it through. If you’re disciplined and have strong willpower, you can make anything happen, whether you love it or not. But most people will need a little something extra to keep them motivated and determined, and doing something you love just might be enough to provide the fuel you need. Follow your heart and it will lead you to your greatest success ever!
