THE TRUTH ABOUT DEVELOPING DAILY SUCCESS HABITS
Have you ever followed the advice about developing daily success habits that lead to personal wealth and fulfillment yet find yourself still searching for the silver bullet to success?
Are you left wondering why it hasn’t worked for you?
I have invested in several books and courses over the years and found them to be incredibly useful and this isn’t about whether they work or not.
So what really does make one person successful and another constantly reaching for success?
After all if it is simply a matter of doing as the books and courses advise why aren’t more people seeing the success they crave?
We may have the notion that successful people simply have the Midas touch. They must have been born into wealth or had a lucky break.
The goals successful people achieve can seem way too big for the likes of us and even a little bit scary too! You may feel that their life in comparison to where you are on the success scale is difficult to relate to.
SUCCESS IS AN EMOTIONAL JOURNEY
It may surprise you to learn that success has more to do with how you FEEL than virtually anything else – and how you feel is largely a habit that you have developed over time.
We [humans] operate on an emotional scale. Our feelings change constantly, unless you learn to keep them more consistent through various techniques and practises such as meditation, self-talk and hypnosis.
WHAT ARE YOUR BELIEFS AROUND SUCCESS?
Everyone grows up with beliefs on all kinds of subjects and none is more pronounced that the subject of money.
Society largely equates success with wealth creation but of course that isn’t necessarily so. You could be the best Mum, or a magnificent sports coach to children or you could be a happy beach bum but nonetheless the word success is more readily sprinkled over the financial achievers.
Your beliefs about success are more powerful than you may realize and you only have to consider some of the sayings we hear about money to prove this point.
“Money doesn’t grow on trees.”
“Money is the root of all evil” (A twist on the true meaning that has stuck)
“A penny saved is a penny earned.”
“Money can’t buy you happiness.”
“You can be young without money, but you can’t be old without it.”
“There’s nothing in the world so demoralizing as money.”
“Health is better than wealth.”
And so on.
We are unconsciously indoctrinated by beliefs around money from an early age, therefore shifting these beliefs will go a long way to creating more helpful beliefs around money and personal achievement.
“You leave old habits behind by starting out with the thought,
‘I release the need for this in my life’.” – Wayne Dyer
It sounds simple enough and it certainly is the starting point as Wayne alludes to.
THE PATH OF LEAST RESISTANCE
Humans always seek the path of least resistance. When we feel overwhelmed we get stressed and nobody likes to feel stressed and out of control.
Of course some people are risk takers and they thrive on the thrill of an adrenalin rush but most of us would rather avoid it.
We see people who have their own businesses with no time to enjoy their family or their life and we think, “I don’t want to be like that.” Rightly so! Who wants to be so busy that they are run ragged?
If success to you means hard graft you may unconsciously push against it thus sabotaging your goals. It may be that you have a little bit of success every now and then but can’t seem to fully nail it.
EMOTIONS ARE THE DOMAIN OF YOUR UNCONSCIOUS MIND
The good news is that you can reshape your old patterns of belief around money by thinking and feeling differently.
Because your emotions are the domain of your unconscious mind there is an easy way to change your beliefs for more supportive ones that will fuel inspired action towards success.
What’s more, you can develop those success principles that lead to the habits of successful people.
HYPNOSIS CHANGES OLD PATTERNS OF BELIEFS TO THOSE OF SUCCESS
Hypnosis is a highly effective tool for making desired changes because it works on the subconscious level where these belief patterns were originally created.
You will be amazed by what you can achieve when you realize how your mind is steering you regarding your beliefs around success and achievement.
What this means for you is that where you may be struggling to make the progress you desire there is a means for disarming anything that stands in the way of your success.
READ MARK’S INSPIRING STORY FROM FINANCIAL STRUGGLE TO 7-FIGURE EARNER
Mark is a successful hypnosis practitioner and trainer yet he didn’t start out that way.
He worked every hour God sent just to stay out of debt.
And while no different than the guy who once washed floors for a living, he made a few key changes in his Mindset.
And those changes made all the difference.
He tells how hypnosis helps your unconscious mind in many ways such as the power of focus, unshakable determination and a strong vision for the future, so he created 10 Steps to a Stellar Success Mindset
It’s curious to think that in all the years of wanting to know the path to success we had the solution in our very hands, or rather our head! Your mind is the first place to turn in your quest to developing daily success habits.
Now that you know, you will never again wonder why it feels like struggle, instead you will pay attention to how you feel!
Let me know where you may be stuck and leave a comment or question below.

Hi Janice,
A very informative post. I think it is a fault belief that our subconscious is more powerful than our conscious mind. If we have put our mind to work harder, then we don’t need to use our subconscious. Since most of us is lazy, so it will seem that way.
Also success depend on a lot of factors, one of them is what you have mention in your post – mindset.
The others are hard work, support and luck. We cannot be success without all of these factors, that is why most of us are not success.
I will tell you one example of luck. When Napoleon wants to fight Russia, the day their army try to enter Russia and it had the heaviest snowfall in decades. Just unlucky for him.
Cheers,

The idea of hypnosis is to make changes effortlessly, which it does. The pattern of thought we call ‘beliefs’ that may adversely affect our life in some way is operating consciously, it’s just outside of our conscious awareness. Once processed and into the long-term memory it isn’t causing any disruption. It’s the emotional response that causes unconscious behaviour that may sabotage our efforts and leave us in loop of struggle regardless of how hard we work.
Both the conscious and unconscious processes are powerful and incredible and neither can function without the other! Years ago the notion of a conscious vs unconscious area was bandied about but of course within the complex structure of the mind it isn’t like that.
A wonderful discussion – thank you much appreciated!
Very interesting! Thank you for your quick responses! 🙂
I look forward to your more in-depth post.

You’re welcome Dustin… more coming soon! 🙂
Hi Janice,
If some limiting belief which is anchored in our subconscious mind. Would hypnosis be able to heal and remove it?
Best regards,
MisterWailor
Hi Mister Wailor, That is correct. If you take a look at my post http://janicebowleshypnotherapy.com/hypnosis-and-the-subconscious this will explain it a little further. If there is anything else I can help with do let me know 🙂
Interesting, thanks for the insight

You’re welcome Joseph, thanks for stopping by 🙂
Our minds are definitely the answer! Who knew that hypnosis can change our mind’s patterns of thinking and feeling…good to know. You created a nice site that’s easy to find what we need. I will be sure to spread the word and thank you for sharing. Please keep me updated with new information and tips!
Hello Deidre, indeed, pattern matching is what our mind does in order to make sense of our world, so everything we encounter has an emotional attachment to it whether small or great. We sometimes hypnotize ourselves unintentionally into negative patterns too but when used correctly and deliberately hypnosis is a fantastic tool. I appreciate your kind comments thank you.
Very good insight… I do think that one of the biggest reasons that people fail is the proper mindset. I personally believe that one of the biggest problems with people not having success is they lack consistency. So if you have the proper mindset and you are consistent in your endeavors, you will succeed. Patience is also a huge necessity because it does not happen overnight:) Great article Janice!
Thank you Fred, your points are most valid and they in turn evoke feelings of confidence in oneself to achieve. Hypnosis helps with keeping your focus consistent and perspective constant. Thanks for stopping by and leaving your thoughts. 🙂
This is a really thought-provoking and inspiring post. I have always struggled with the feeling that money is somehow bad, even though I love money lol and I haven’t been terribly unsuccessful. Realizing that this feeling is merely a habit that can be broken is freeing, and I imagine it will be all the more freeing once I establish that freedom in my emotions and thoughts about this issue. I liked your ideas of using self-talk, meditation and hypnosis as tools to correct these thought patterns. Perhaps when I lose the negative feeling around money and success, I will become truly rich. 🙂 Thank you for sharing your insight!
Angie
Thank you Angie and stay posted as I will write more on this topic including self-talk techniques soon. All the best 🙂
Hey Janice,
I’m wondering if you could tell me a little bit more abut what hypnosis actually is. In my head, when I hear hypnosis I immediately think of the hypnotist who comes to Proms and parties and makes people do silly things.
Is this the same as the hypnosis you’re mentioning here? Or is is something completely different?
Just curious!
Dustin
Hi Dustin thank you for excellent question. I will answer this in a separate page/post and if it’s okay will let you know when that is done – and I will also add the link here too.
Sounds good! I look forward to the post. Hypnotism has always been sort of a taboo thing in my head…
Ah! Just briefly, it’s very natural and we all ‘do’ hypnosis every day! It is just a word that explains a certain state of focus but more on this later. 🙂
I read a lot of interesting posts here. Probably you
spend a lot of time writing, i know how to save you a lot of work, there is an online tool that
creates readable, google friendly articles in seconds, just
type in google – laranitas free content source
Hi Frederic! Thank you for stopping by. Yes I do spend time writing and actually I love it! In the past I have used tools to help me write, especially in the early days when writing didn’t flow so much. I could never though just post the blog as created by the tool because it needed editing, which is okay especially to help you get the feel for writing.
In my opinion there’s nothing like a personally created blog because it matters to me that I give quality content. Furthermore, Google’s algorithms can detect quality content and this is how you become a successful marketer these days. Maybe someone will read this and be curious to know of your recommendation and maybe they’ll be interested to be educated fully on building successful websites 🙂
Thanks again for stopping by and best wishes to you.
