Welcome to this fine Tuesday, and the last day of our Andy Andrew’s 7 Decisions extravaganza. What fun it has all been, and what a great way to wrap up September. We get to kick off the last quarter of the year on an outstanding high note.

I want to thank everyone who wrote to me over the past seven days with note recognizing the tremendous impact Andy’s messages have been having on you. You folks are certainly on an amazing track for sustained personal growth.

A very special thanks goes to Andy Andrew’s. Andy, your works continue to inspire everyone who is touched by them. Your love for your audience shines in absolutely everything you author. My life sparkles as a consequence of embracing your edicts, my soul sings with the music of their message, and I operate as better man for the lessons they impart. Thank you.

Now, let’s get on to the seventh and final Decision.

SEVEN DECISIONS THAT DETERMINE PERSONAL GROWTH.
Andy Andrews
7. I Will Persist Without Exception - I am a person of great faith.

Today I insert the final piece of the puzzle. I possess the greatest power ever bestowed upon mankind, the power of Choice!

Today I choose to Persist without Exception! No longer will I live in a dimension of distraction, for I know the outcome I desire. I hold fast to my dreams. I will persist without exception. I will continue despite exhaustion! I acknowledge that most people quit when exhaustion set in. I am not "most people". I am stronger than most people. Average people compare themselves with other people, that is why they are average. I compare myself to my potential. I am not average. I see exhaustion as a precursor to victory. By persisting without exception, my outcome, my success, is assured.

To achieve the results I desire, it is not necessary that I enjoy the process. It is only important that I continue the process with my eyes on the outcome. I will persist without Exception! I am a person of great faith!

God declares, 'For I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future'. From this day forward, I will claim a faith in the certainty of my future. Too much of my life has been spent doubting my beliefs and believing my doubts. No More! I have faith in my future. I look forward. I can only persist! For me, faith will always be a sounder guide than reason because reason can only go so far-faith has no limits! I will expect miracles in my life because faith produces them every day. I will believe in the future I do not see. That Is Faith!!

I Will Continue Despite Exhaustion!
I Focus On Results!
I Am A Person Of Great Faith!

I Will Persist Without Exception!

The Seven Decisions - Number 6

A note from peter@thewealthyattitude.com for Monday September 29 2008

Bid hello to another brand spanking new week.

The Andy Andrew’s event seems to be hitting it all right on the mark. It doesn’t matter what is going on in life, Andy has an amazing way of bringing us all back to a nice centered place.

Let’s get right to it on this very sparkling Monday with Decision number 6.

Also, check out what our friends over at Daily Insight are doing to get their week up and running!

6. I Will Greet This Day With A Forgiving Spirit - I will forgive myself

The forgiveness that I hoarded has sprouted inside my heart like a crippled seed yielding bitter fruit. No more! At this moment, my life has taken on new hope and assurance. Of all the world population, I am one of the few possessors of the secret to dissipating anger and resentment. I now understand that forgiveness has value only when given away. By the simple act of granting forgiveness, I release the demons of the past about which I can do nothing, and I create in myself a new heart, a new beginning.

I will greet this day with a forgiving heart! I will forgive even those who do not ask for forgiveness. I have wasted valuable hours imagining revenge or confrontation with people who said negative or harmful things about me. I will now and forevermore silently offer my forgiveness even to those who do not see that they need it. By the act of forgiving, I am no longer consumed by unproductive thoughts. I give up my bitterness and am content in my soul and effective again with my fellow man.

Know that the person who lives a life according to the opinion of others is a slave, I am not a slave! I know the difference between right and wrong. Those who are critical of my goals and dreams simply do not understand the higher purpose to which I have been called. Therefore, their scorn does not affect my attitude or action. I forgive their lack of vision. I realize today that it is impossible to fight an enemy living in my head. By forgiving myself, I erase the doubts, fears, and frustrations that have kept my past in the present. From this day forward, my history will cease to control my destiny. I have forgiven myself. My life has just begun!

I Will Forgive Even Those Who Do Not Ask For Forgiveness!
I Will Forgive Those Who Criticize Me Unjustly!
I Will Forgive Myself!

I Will Greet This Day With A Forgiving Spirit!

The Seven Decisions - Number 5

A note from peter@thewealthyattitude.com for Sunday September 28 2008

Say aloha to this very fine and engaging Sunday.

It’s been an awesome weekend for me so far. I’ve learned some new truths about living, learning, and loving. What fun awareness at this level is!

The series of The Seven Decisions is proving to be of outstanding usefulness to many if my mail is any indication. My congratulations to each of you who are embracing what Andy is imparting.

Let’s get right to number 5 in the line-up.

SEVEN DECISIONS THAT DETERMINE PERSONAL GROWTH.
Andy Andrews
5. Today I Will Choose To Be Happy - I am the possessor of a grateful spirit

Happiness is a CHOICE! I know now that happiness is not an emotional phantom floating in and out of my life. Happiness is the end result of certain thoughts and activities, which bring about a chemical reaction in my body. This reaction results in a euphoria that, while elusive to some, is totally under my control.

I will greet each with laughter. Within moments of awakening, I will laugh for seven seconds. Excitement will begin to flow through my bloodstream. I feel different. I am different. I am Enthusiastic about the day! Laughter is an outward expression of enthusiasm, and I know enthusiasm is the fuel that moves the world. I have laughter in my heart.

Today, I choose to be happy. I will smile at every person I meet. My smile is my calling card and is the most potent weapon I possess. My smile is my key to my emotional make up. When I choose to smile, I become the master of my emotions. Discouragement, despair, frustration, and fear will always wither when confronted by my smile.

The power of who I am is displayed when I smile. I am the possessor of a grateful spirit! In the past, I have found discouragement in particular situations UNTIL I compared the condition of my life to others less fortunate. It is impossible for the seeds of depression to take root in a thankful heart. I am grateful for sight, sound and breathe.

If ever in my life there is a pouring out of blessings beyond that, then I will be grateful for miracle of abundance.

I will greet each day with Laughter!
I will Smile at every person I meet!
I am the possessor of a grateful spirit!

Today I Will Choose To Be Happy!

The Seven Decisions - Number 4

A note from peter@thewealthyattitude.com for Saturday September 27 2008

Welcome to this fine early fall weekend.

I know, you’re not used to hearing from me on the weekend. As I mentioned in the past few days, we’re going right through the weekend presenting you with The Seven Decisions by our friend Andy Andrews.

As we go into the weekend I feel that today’s Decision (#4) is highly appropriate for your consideration. It proposes a very sincere question to us. What is it that your heart is decided on?

We’ve had quite a number of folks wanting to know where to get Andy’s materials, so click on the link below, and you’re good to go. Also make sure you sign up for Andy’s newsletter.

Follow this link and get your own copy of The Travelers Gift. I highly recommend it. http://www.andyandrews.com/affiliates/idevaffiliate.php?id=107

Here we go with Decision # 4

SEVEN DECISIONS THAT DETERMINE PERSONAL GROWTH.
Andy Andrews
4. I Have A Decided Heart - My destiny is assured

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Knowing this to be true, I am taking my first step today. Criticism, condemnation, and complaint are creatures of the wind. They come and go on the wasted breathe of lesser beings and have no power over me. The power of control belongs to me.

Today I will exercise that power. My course has been charted. My destiny is assured. I have a decided Heart. I am passionate about my vision for the future. I will awaken every morning with an excitement about the new day and its opportunity for growth and change. I will freely give my vision for the future to others, and as they see the belief in my eyes, they will follow me. I will lay my head on my pillow at night happily exhausted, knowing that I have done everything within my power to move the mountains in my path. As I sleep, the same dream that dominates my waking hours will be with me in the dark.

Yes, I have a dream. It is a great dream, and I will never apologize for it. Neither will I ever let it go, for if I did, my life would be finished. My hopes, my passions, my vision for the future are my very existence. A person without a dream never had a dream come true. I have a decided heart. I will not wait. I am not timid. I will move now and not look back. I do not procrastinate. All my problems become smaller when I confront them. If I touch a thistle with caution, it will prick me, but if I grasp it boldly, its spines crumble into dust.

I will not wait!
I am passionate about my vision for the future!
My course has been charted!
My destiny assured!

I Have A Decided Heart!

The Seven Decisions - Number 3

A note from peter@thewealthyattitude.com for Friday September 26 2008

Welcome to the end of this outstanding week.

We’ve had a ton of stuff go on this week. We got part 2 of our friend Warren’s pre-launch of his great new program, The Inspired Science of Getting Rich. Warren is certainly on a winner with this.

We’ve also been reviewing a great classic book by Raymond Holliwell called “Working With The Law”, and the folks who are working along with us have been reporting awesome personal breakthrough’s as a consequence of the study.

And, we’re back at that time of the year where we honor the great contributor, Andy Andrew’s. We’ve presented Decisions 1 and 2, and today we go with number 3. You’ll be getting them right through the weekend so make sure you check in and print them off for your wall.

Here we go with number 3, it’s one of my personal favorite’s.

SEVEN DECISIONS THAT DETERMINE PERSONAL GROWTH.

Andy Andrews

3. I Am a Person of Action - I seize this moment - I choose now!!

Beginning today, I will create a new future by creating a new me. My future is immediate. When faced with the choice of doing nothing or doing something, I will always choose to act. I am a person of action. I am energetic. I move quickly.

Knowing that laziness is a sin, I will create a habit of lively behavior. Wealth and prosperity hide from the sluggard, but rich rewards come to the person who moves quickly. I inspire others with my activity. I am a Leader. Leading is doing.

My activity will create a wave of success for the people who follow. My activity will be consistent. It is True: an army of sheep led by a lion would defeat an army of lions led by a sheep. When faced with a decision, many people say they are waiting for God. But I understand, in most cases, God is waiting for me! I am not a quivering dog, indecisive and fearful.

Successful people make their decisions quickly and change their minds slowly. I am daring and courageous. Fear no longer has a place in my life. Fear has no power over me in the first place. I do not fear opinion, gossip, or idle chatter of monkeys, for all are same to me. I do not fear failure, fo r in my life, failure is a myth. Failure exists only for the person who quits.

I do not Quit!!!
I am Courageous.
I am a Leader.
I seize this moment.
I choose now.

I am a Person of Action!! I Seize This Moment!! I Choose Now!

The Seven Decisions - Number 2

A note from peter@thewealthyattitude.com for Thursday September 25 2008

Welcome to this very fine early fall day.

I was on a conference call last night and was reminded that 3/4 of the year is almost past, and what happens in the next three months will be the foundation upon which 2008 will stand. In January we’ll be talking about our goals and intentions for the year, however, it will all stand on what we do between now and then. Isn’t that something to get clear on?

Now is the time to be setting in the attitudes and actions that will slingshot us towards our dreams for the New Year. The Second Decision from The Travelers Gift will undoubtedly assist in this endeavor.

2. I Will Seek Wisdom - I will be a servant to others

Knowing that wisdom waits to be gathered, I will actively search her out. I will train my eyes and ears to read and listen to books and recordings that bring about positive changes in my personal relationships and a greater understanding of my fellow man. No longer will I bombard my mind with materials that feed doubts and fears. I will seek wisdom-I will choose my friends with care.

From this moment forward, I will choose to associate with people whose lives and lifestyles I admire. If I associate with chickens, I will learn to scratch at the ground and squabble over crumbs. If I associate with Eagles, I will learn to soar to great heights. I am an Eagle-It is my destiny to Fly. I will seek wisdom-I will listen to wise men. When I counsel with just myself, I can make decisions only according to what I already know- By counseling with a wise man; I add his knowledge and experience to my own and dramatically increase my own success.

I will seek wisdom - I will be a servant to others. A wise man will cultivate a servant's spirit, for that particular attribute attracts people like no other. Often, the person who develops a servant's spirit becomes wealthy beyond measure. He who serves the most grows the fastest. I will be excited when I am available to help.

I will be a servant to others.
I will listen to the counsel of wise men.
I will choose my friends with care.
I will seek wisdom!


I Will seek Wisdom-I Will be a Servant to Others

The Seven Decisions - Number 1

A note from peter@thewealthyattitude.com for Wednesday September 24 2008

Welcome to the midweek point, and it brings us to one of my very favorite events of the year.

Since reading Andy Andrew’s inspiring work “The Travelers Gift” in 2005, I have engaged each of his Seven Decisions from the book in every aspect of my life. These great lessons have served to guide me through many changes and growth in my day-to-day life experience, and to Andy I will be eternally grateful.

In honor of his work, we elected to bring to you each year those Seven Decisions so that you get to re-visit their power, or if you are a new subscriber, to embrace them for the very first time. Either way, their message holds true for everyone who considers the effect of integrating them into daily life.

The Seven Decisions will be delivered to you, one each day for the next seven days, in pdf format that has been designed to be printed off and hung proudly in your office. As you embrace their truths, you’ll find emerging within you a whole new power with which to design your days.

Here we go with the first one.

SEVEN DECISIONS THAT DETERMINE PERSONAL GROWTH.
Andy Andrews
1. The Buck Stops Here - I am responsible for my past and my future

Never again will I blame my parents, my boss, or other employees for my present situation. Neither my education nor lack of one, my genetics, or the circumstantial ebb and flow of everyday life will affect my future in a negative way. If I allow myself to blame these uncontrollable forces for my lack of success, I will be forever caught in a web of the past. I will look forward. I will not let my history control my destiny. I accept responsibility for my past. I am responsible for my success. My decisions have always been governed by my thinking. Therefore, I am where I am today-mentally, physically, spiritually, emotionally and financially - because of how I think. Today I will begin the process of changing where I am -by changing the way I think.

My thoughts will be constructive, never destructive. My mind will live in the solution of the future. It will not dwell in the problems of the past. I will seek the association of those who are working and striving to bring about positive changes in the world. I will never seek comfort by associating with those who have decided to be comfortable.

When faced with an opportunity to make a decision-I will make one. I understand that God did not put in me the ability to always make right decisions. He did, however, put in me the ability to make a decision and then make it right. The rise and fall of my emotional tide will not deter me from my course. When I make a decision I will stand behind it. My energy will go into making the decision. I will waste none on second thoughts. My life will not be an apology. It will be a Statement!

In the future when I am tempted to ask "Why Me" I will immediately counter with the answer, Why Not Me?

Challenges are gifts, opportunities to learn! Problems are the common threads running through the lives of great men and women. In times of adversity, I will not have a problem to deal with; I will have a choice to make. My thoughts will be clear. I will make the right choice. Adversity is preparation for Greatness! I will accept this preparation.

Why Me? Why Not Me? I will be prepared for something Great. I accept responsibility for my past. I control my thoughts. I control my emotions. I am responsible for my success.

The Buck Stops Here!
