We often read and hear people say " I have sincerely tried but still failed!"

Perhaps we failed because, there was something else or more that was needed to bring us the success we were seeking.

A negative mental attitude, is one of the primary causes of failure, especially when we are seriously ignorant of the existence of facts, universal laws and powers.

We may actually know about them but fail to apply them to specific needs.

I learnt something lately, when you seek success with positive mental attitude, you will keep trying, you keep searching to find something more, though we MUST be threatened by fear of the the unknown, but do not relent.

One very simple formula to get what you seek easily, is "Add something more to your efforts". Probably, go extra miles, leave your comfort zone. Think out of the box. Don't be limited by you myopic views and little knowledge alone; read wide...

Napoleon Hill said
"It is necessary only to apply the universal law that had always existed but which had not been previously recognized as applicable for the specific invention".

Therefore, if you are standing on the threshold of success without being able to passover just like myself, let us try adding something more, It doesn't even need to be so much, "It is not necessarily the quantity of something but the the inspired quality that counts"

Take for instance, the story of Alexander Graham Bell, have you wondered why the US supreme court decided that Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone?.

There were many other persons who claimed to have invented the telephone before A. G. Bell, among them were: Gray, Edison, Dolbear, McDonough, Vanderweyde and Reis.

Did you know that Philip Reis, was the only one who apparently came close to success. But you wouldn't believe the little difference that made the big difference: just a screw.

Reis, didn't know that if he had turned one screw one quarter of a turn, he would have transformed interrupted current into continuous current. Then he would have been successful.

Let me give us one secret: whenever you receive a flash of inspiration, write it down. This may be the "something more" that you are looking for.

"We believe that communication with infinite intelligence is through the subconscious mind".
I also believe you should establish the habit of immediately writing down flashes of inspiration as they are communicated to you from the subconscious to the conscious.

A saying in Igbo goes: onye ara si amamihe n'abia n' awa n'awa. Meaning knowledge comes in as a flash.

We will develop our mental powers, when we learn and develop the habit of using pencils and paper to write down our questions, ideas and Answer.
