You are the creator of your own reality
YOU have the power to control how you are vibrating, positively or negatively. Therefore, the ability to bring whatever you want to your life is yours. You have the power to create your own wonderful reality, with faith that the universe is on your side.
You no longer have to be a passive spectator or victim of uncontrollable circumstances around you. You no longer have to reactively live a life of randomness and worry. You no longer have to hope or wonder if everything is going to turn out okay. Instead, you can develop into an active creator—an inventor of thoughts, feelings and positive energy that will elevate your state of being. Have faith that, whatever experiences you face, you’re gaining wisdom and the tools to bring you closer and closer to your goals.
It’s extremely important to realize your PAST thoughts and feelings have created the situations and circumstances you’re experiencing in the present. Your current situation is the result of feelings you’ve already experienced, and you must remind yourself that those thoughts and feelings are in the past. They don’t exist right now if you don’t let them. More importantly, you have the ability and the power to create a new reality for yourself simply by shifting the way you think. This will change how you feel, and these new positive feelings will result in a positive shift in the people, situations and circumstances coming into your life. This is worth repeating: You are the Creator of Your Own Reality.
In order to construct the life you want in every area (career, finances, relationships, health and inner peace), you must pay attention to how you are “vibrating.” What kind of energy are you emitting? Positive or negative? What are you attracting to your existence?
Thoughts alone don’t possess much power. However, the feelings produced by those thoughts, especially strong feelings, possess the amazing power to change our lives. Those feelings are the key to creating our desired reality. By choosing to “vibrate” positively, we can create a positive reality and a truly amazing life.

Turn Challenges into Opportunities
“Turn every challenge into an opportunity. No matter how difficult it is, every challenge contains the seed of a benefit. You just have to look for it.”
Many times I’ve heard people complain about the obstacles and challenges that they have to overcome, and these challenges are the excuses they use to explain why they can’t achieve their successes.
Sometimes we tell ourselves, “I don’t have enough money for that project,” or “I don’t have the education to get that promotion,” or we complain about all the situations that are obstacles to our successes.
To really understand the balance between challenges and opportunities, we have to take a hard look at what challenges really are. Believe it or not, challenges are more important than we realize. They provide us with the experience, knowledge, and tools we need to prepare us for the next steps in our journey to achieve success.
To achieve success, we have to be ready to receive it. Similar to the saying, “When the student is ready, the teacher appears.” If one of your goals is to make a certain amount of money, first you need to determine exactly how much money you want to make. Then you need to decide and plan exactly how you are going to make it. This plan may include education in certain field, acquiring knowledge, or doing a certain amount of work. Whatever it is, you will need certain conditions met before you will see your money or any other goal you may have. Obstacles and challenges are key ingredients to prepare you for that moment of victory. Take advantage of those challenges and find the seeds of benefit that each one of them contains.
Just as I did in my kickboxing world championship fights, roll with the punches and don’t give up. Use patience, have faith and never lose sight of your dreams. Believe in yourself, and you will achieve your goals, no matter how big they are.
With these simple steps you have the power to change your life.

The Power of Intention
“If you expect great things, then great things will come. Believe in your dreams regardless of circumstances or what others may think of it.”
The forces that move our minds are amazingly powerful. Incredibly enough, the same forces that create planets, solar systems and galaxies are also used to create our realities.
The reality we each experience is the result of the projection of our own minds. Everything we experience--our lives, our victories and defeats are like mirrors projecting our vibrational state, and that state is determined by our thoughts and feelings.
Our thoughts determine the way we feel. Good thoughts make us feel good, bad thoughts make us feel bad, and as a result we are vibrating either positively or negatively. This vibration is like a signal sent to the universe, which will in turn produce circumstances, situations and conditions to match that vibration. That’s why it’s so important to wisely choose what we think about for sustained periods of time, and what we really want manifested in our lives.
To create prosperous, successful and peaceful lives, we must CREATE them by first THINKING about them and sending those signals to the universe. It doesn’t just show up unintentionally. Use the POWER OF INTENTION and begin to think about prosperity, abundance, success, peace and everything you want manifested. It all begins with your thoughts.
The second part of the process is you have to FEEL GOOD. Think about things that make you feel good. How do you want your life to be? Dream as if it is already a reality.
The most important ingredient in using the power of intention, is ACTING according to your desires. If you want abundance, KNOW that it is coming. Use your mind to bring those feelings of having abundance to your present. Behave and speak as if you are the most prosperous person in the world. Feel the excitement of knowing it is 100 percent on its way.
Just with these simple steps you have the power to change your life.
Wishing you success, prosperity and peace,

When the student is ready the teacher appears
The energy you spend worrying about your problems will only give more power to the problems. Spend that energy positively to plan for your future. In this process, just when you are ready, the answer or the way will be revealed.
Did you ever hear the saying, "when the student is ready the teacher appears"? The same goes for our problems. The solutions for our problems will only appear when we are ready to receive them. When we take a negative approach towards our problems, like complaining all the time, telling people how miserable we are, feeling sorry for ourselves, or looking to other people to make us feel good because we can't find a way to feel good ourselves, we are actually perpetuating our problems and disconnecting ourselves from that universal source of well-being. With this kind of mindset you will only attract more problems or situations that will match the negative nature of those feelings.
Once we are able to acknowledge that every situation good or bad, and every experience pleasant or unpleasant, is a very important part of the process of achieving success, we can then shift the focus of our energy from what we don't want to the things we really want. Once you shift your focus, you will automatically begin to feel good, and you will begin to vibrate positively. And when you begin to vibrate positively, the universal force of well-being will find the way to match that vibration with situations and circumstances that will open the gates of wealth, and prosperity. And with THIS kind of mindset, every desire your mind can conceive you will be able to achieve!

Attachment
Attachment is responsible for the slavery of our emotions and becoming prisoners of our own minds. Learn to free your mind, by not letting circumstances break your harmony or dictate how you feel. The base of love and happiness lies first in the achievement of harmony from within, and then that will follow with finding harmony with everything else around you.

Achieving success
Today I was teaching a seminar in a company in the DC Metropolitan area, and I was talking about what led me to write my book, The Master Method. In its creation, I had realized that I followed a particular method to achieve every one of my goals, and I call that method, The Master Method. I was so excited to be able to share that method with the world, and with everyone who wanted to learn. Knowing that I was going to be able to change people's lives made me so excited to write about it, and I truly enjoyed every moment of the process. When I spoke to the crowd today, I told them they can achieve anything they want in their lives, and I really got their attention. Looking at their faces made me realize the importance of my message, and I could truly feel something was being born within each one of them. That made me feel incredibly great.
If you close your eyes and imagine the life of your dreams in all areas--finances, career, relationships, health and inner peace--know that you can have it. No matter how big your goals are, you can achieve them. Knowing exactly what you want is the first step, and training your mind to be positively oriented is the fuel to every success.
Live your life with enthusiasm. Experience it in your job, with your family, your friends, anyone you encounter, and most importantly, when no one is watching. Don't sell yourself short. Dream big, and go after those dreams.

Impermanence
Driving home from the movies tonight with my wife, I was thinking about all the things I teach my students, and one word came to my mind: impermanence. I asked her, "Do you know what impermanence is?" And she replied, "Yes, I think so." Everything in this universe is made of energy, and energy is always changing from one form to another. Everything is always transforming. Even my teachings. The understanding of them will change, as the mind discovers and experiences new things. The same teachings will have a different meaning according to the growth and experiences of each individual mind. Days change to night, summer changes to autumn, life to death, and death to life, rainy days to sunny days...and so is everything else that we know.
Even the difficult circumstances and challenges that we experience everyday cannot last. Sunny days will always appear after the clouds have moved on. Rainy days are very important to maintain the balance of nature on this planet, so is every challenge that we experience. Like the rain bringing us this vital element called water, challenges bring us the vital elements to our success. Always remember on rainy days, that the sun will be coming out soon.

Check out this month's Issue of 270Inc Business Magazine
Recently I had the pleasure of being a guest with Pattee Brown and Harby Tran on their 270Inc Radio Show, and from the moment we met, I knew we would become fast friends. I loved their energy, their rapport with each other (and with me), and it was one of my favorite interviews I have ever done, simply because it was SO MUCH FUN!
A couple of months later, I was lucky enough to have them as guests on my show, The Master Method, seen on Montgomery Channel 16 (Maryland, USA), and once again, it was more like hanging out with old friends than working. They inspired our viewers and shared their success stories with us, and we were able to hear first-hand about their successful partnership, and the passion behind their highly acclaimed business magazine, 270Inc. I truly believe this magazine is revolutionary and should set the standard for all publications. It educates, inspires, motivates and enlightens in its spectrum and balance of touching the hearts of individuals to arming larger businesses with tools for growth. From human interest stories to increasing the bottom line, Pattee and Harby have hit the jackpot. Congratulations!
Please check out the article that Rachael Shankle wrote in this month's issue. She interviewed me about my story of growing up in Chile, coming to America, some of my struggles and my successes. I hope you enjoy it!
Please write and tell me what you think!

Thanks, Pattee and Harbee for everything you do. You deserve all the successes that are surely coming your way.
With warm regards,
