Today you inspired me! In addition to a comment and have already replied twice to your comments. Thank you for "been so honest." Please continue!

There are several powerful and interesting ideas in this note. The point that made me thing was one of the sidebar quotes "If you had all the time and money you wanted and you could be or have anything at all in life, waht would you really want? The greater clarity you can achieve in describing your ideal future, the more likely you are to create that future for yourself, and usually faster than you can imagine right now. However, you can't hit a target you can't see. Clarity is essential." As Brian says: "Amen" After reading the note, I have applied the "single-mindedly one touching" idea and I have figured out that the most valuable use of my time in this moment is to answer the aforementioned question posed by Tracy. And.... I am really enjoying the first version of it!

When I first learnt about Brian Tracy, I looked at his website and was not very impressed. It seemed to me he was a guy successfully selling his "package" and not on the same "philosophical" league as other authors in PH (e.g., Deepak Chopra, Eckhart Tolle, Wayne Dyer). After reading today´s note, I could also report enjoyment. Specifically, I have taken home the concept of "zero-based thinking."
