- Have you heard the story of how a girl named Sara Blakely
wrote down three things she wanted to be?
One, self-employed.
Two, invent a product she could sell to a lot of people.
And number three, create a business
that would be able to fund itself.
Today, Sara Blakely, the founder of spanx
is a billionaire.
She did all three.
Can I just say, thank God she didn't give up on her dream?

Okay, back to our topic.
Let's look at these familiar stories.
You have no doubt heard the story
about back in 1990
how struggling and broke actor, Jim Carrey,
wrote a check to himself for $10 million.
And he wrote on there for acting services rendered.
Now, we all know this story.
But he gave himself five years to achieve his dream
by dating it Thanksgiving, 1995.
He carried it in his wallet
and it actually deteriorated over time.
Just before November, 1995,
he found he out he was scheduled to film "Dumb and Dumber,"
in which he was paid
for acting services rendered $10 million.
Or what about this one?
Amateur fighter, John, the Bones, Jones.
He would sign his name as the UFC Champion 2011,
years earlier.
In fact, in an interview, he said
"Me signing my signature with Champion 2011
can't hurt me."
He said, "It could only help me believe it even more."
John, the Bones, Jones became the youngest champion
in UFC history in May of 2011.
What about this one?
Fergie, you know, who is the lead singer
for the Black Eyed Peas?
She wrote in her journal
that she wanted to have a number one song.
She also wanted to win a Grammy.
Well, today, Fergie has won eight Grammys
and three number one hit singles.
Well, in this video today,
I wanna stir up those dreams in you
that maybe you put on the shelf
or you've gotten frustrated
because of how much time it's taken.
Maybe you've stopped dreaming altogether.
You know, I found myself at that place years ago.
I didn't even remember my dreams.
I didn't remember how to dream.
But I began studying successful people
and studying God's word.
And I did discovered three success principles
that come straight from the Bible
that absolutely changed my life.
Now, the first one is pretty obvious from the stories.
Number one, have vision.
God is the one who said,
"Without a vision, you perish."
When I first began to really grab hold of this concept,
I was so consume with regret
over my past and memories of the past.
But I heard someone say,
"A person with no vision will always return to their past."
I thought, oh my gosh, I don't ever wanna go back
to where I was.
But it's true in every area of life.
If you don't have a vision for your money,
you'll go back to spending everything you make.
If you don't have a vision for your body,
you'll go back to eating everything you crave.
If you don't have a vision,
you're gonna go back to what's familiar.
So, I did what I'm telling you.
I got a vision board.
I began writing vision for my finances,
to pay off my Mastercard of $3,000.
I got a vision for my savings account,
to save a thousand dollars.
I got a vision for my body to weigh a certain amount.
I'm not telling you that number.
(Terri laughing)
I got a vision for my marriage to be restored.
I got a vision for certain vacations I wanted to take.
Every single thing I envisioned began to happen.
So, I made another vision board and another one.
So, number one have vision.
Number two, God said write the vision.
Habakuk 2:2 says, "Write the vision, make it plain."
It's not a vision If it's in your thoughts.
Now, did you notice how in every story I shared with you
each of them had the courage to write the vision?
Well, this is one of the most vital
but overlooked keys to success,
and it's not that hard.
Your life can drastically advance
just by taking the time to grab a pen and some paper,
and begin to write what you want.
Something powerful happens when you put pen to paper
Henriette Anne Klauser, she wrote a book called
"Write It Down and Make It Happen."
And she said,
"When you write something down,
you are stating your intention."
She said, "And you're starting to set things in motion."
The actual act of writing your goals down
makes them real intangible.
Just imagine going to the airport
and purchasing a ticket to somewhere?
No, you chart a very specific destination.
Well, writing your dreams and goals is no different.
You're charting your course
and you're deciding exactly where you wanna go.
In fact, I mentioned the Vision Board Course earlier
but for some reason,
I really had it on my heart this week
to get that into your hands.
This course is the best way I know how,
with proven results, to help you figure out your dreams,
your goals and what to do while you're waiting
for these to manifest.
And I just wanna mention it again,
because if you feel like God is speaking to you
that it's time to get serious,
it's time to get moving,
or stop procrastinating on your future,
then do it now.
Now, I know it sounds nuts.
The course is normally $97 and I'm offering it for $8.
Save $89? Yes.
I felt like I was obeying God last year by doing this.
And I'm not kidding when I say
we received testimonies of people
achieving their dreams and goals every single day.
Well, I want that for you.
So, I don't know
when I'm gonna offer this again at this price on YouTube,
but right now you can enroll
in our number one selling course for only $8.
And did I mention
every key that I teach
comes from God's success book, the Bible?
It's all supported with scripture.
So, you can access my online Vision Board Course
for only $8.
And you're gonna get six training videos with me,
plus you're gonna get the ebook and the e-workbook.
This all is included for $8.
So, just click the link in the description and enroll now.
Okay, the third principle from God's word
that change of my life was this, behold the vision.
Now, I know that word behold
isn't something we say every day.
But I found out from God's word
that there's a principle, you become what you behold.
Now, the success or the business world,
they call it the law of attraction.
Meaning that your mind is like a magnet.
And whatever gets in your mind and stays there,
you will attract it in your life.
God calls it Proverbs 23:7.
It says,
"As a man thinks in his heart,
so shall he become."
What you think about, you bring about.
Now, those are biblical principles.
But isn't it amazing how the world
stumbles upon these principles from the Bible
and they apply them,
they just leave the scripture out of it?
Well, God wants you to behold
or keep in front of your eyes the vision you have.
See, your life moves toward the dominating images
that you keep in front of you.
If it's not in front of you, you're not moving towards it.
I think about Conrad Hilton,
the founder of the Hilton Hotels.
When he was a young man back in the 1930s,
coming out of the Great Depression,
barely able to pay his own rent.
But Conrad was a man
who knew the power of having a grand vision.
In fact, one day he came across an article in a magazine
that captured his heart.
It was called, "The Most Famous Hotel in the World."
Now, it was the iconic famous Waldorf Astoria
in New York City.
And as Conrad Hilton looked at those photos,
God dropped a dream in his heart
to own that very building.
Now, knowing the power of having a vision,
writing it down, and keeping it in front of your eyes,
Conrad tore the pages out of that magazine
and he wrote across the photo,
"The greatest of them of all."
He said he slid it under the glass top of his desk.
Every day, his vision was in front of him.
And it looked impossible.
There were no odds in his favor.
However, with each year that past,
he just continued to believe.
And when he would go to New York City,
he said he made it a priority
to walk around the property, praying, believing, dreaming
that one day he would own that hotel.
Well, with that old magazine clipping
still placed under the glass top of his desk,
18 years later on October 1949,
one of Conrad Hilton's greatest lifelong dreams came true
as he became the owner of the Waldorf Astoria Hotel.
What am I saying?
The more you look at the images of your ideal future,
the more you desire them.
The more you desire them,
the more persistent you become fulfilling them.
So, your vision needs to be placed
in a prominent place
where you're gonna look at it consistently.
That old saying is true.
Outta sight, outta mind.
So, I'm gonna help you this week get serious
and get excited about your future.
Why? Because it's time.
In fact, I wanna encourage you to stop waiting.
Stop waiting on permission, inspiration,
your birthday, next year.
Stop waiting for someone to change
or for the kids to grow up.
Stop waiting for more confidence or for the pain to go away.
Stop waiting for other people to believe in you
or waiting for another sign that it's time.
This is your sign.
You didn't stumble upon this by accident.
God is trying to get your attention
that he has something for you to fulfill
and the time to get serious is right now.
