Joseph Clough is a transformational speaker, coach and hypnotherapist. His mission is to help as many people in the world as possible so everyone can live a life of happiness and freedom. Joseph has helped more than 700,000 people in recent years by recording over 100 hours of life-changing audio and giving them away for free so everyone can have the opportunity to be their potential.

Joseph was once a shy child: throughout school he struggled with low confidence, blushing and self-consciousness. He left school at 17, and at 18 years old he was lost, confused and stuck in a job he hated, with nowhere to turn. At his lowest point, he made a decision to do whatever it took to change his situation. He went on a mission to discover the power of the mind, immersing himself in every book he could read on self-help, going on self-development courses and researching the inner workings of the mind. Upon his journey of transforming his own life, being free of blushing and unleashing the power of his true self, for a decade he has worked with clients and has run seminars internationally to show others how they can do the same. He has worked with top celebrities and appeared on ITV1s Fear Factor, removing phobias in just ten minutes. At only 28 years old, Joseph is a living example of how anyone can change their life and he is dedicating in show you to make your dreams a reality. As he says, Rather being a product of life, allow life to be a product of you.

Im pretty sure that you bought this book because youre not quite happy with your life in some way, and you want to be living to your true potential. Maybe youre fed up with having the same unfulfilling relationships, or maybe you dont have the abundance in life that you truly feel you deserve. Perhaps you lack self-worth or confidence, or want to get your health back on track.

The key is, whatever you think you are, you are always more than that and you are able to achieve all that you desire, no matter what obstacles you think are in your way. This is the deeper truth that many have forgotten, and now is the time to not only re-remember this universal truth, but to be it and actualize it fully.

In the following chapters I will share some of the wisdom and principles I have learned and developed, which will if you let them transform your life and awaken your mind to the deeper truth of you. I use these principles to help people every day, and so far Ive helped 500,000 people around the world to achieve their results. And Im still quite young.

One of the most important principles that Ive learned, and one that I teach my clients, is that nothing can stop us but ourselves. I wasnt gifted from a young age far from it, in fact. I do not say this to impress you, but rather to share with you some of my story of how I was rock bottom in mind and body but re-remembered my potential. In doing so, I turned my life around, harnessed my potential and actualized my dreams in every area of my life, and I want to share the secret of my success with you.

Years ago I saw the world as a place of fear, uncertainty and scarcity. Today I understand that this happens because we arent taught to live the life we deserve. It begins at a young age and is passed down to us by our parents, our educators and society as a whole. They do their best, but most of us arent given the information we need to go out into the world and get what we want out of life.

Why? For the simple reason that the people who are our biggest influencers werent taught this, and so the cycle continues. This is my sole intent in writing this book: to help reconnect you with your source the source of your potential.

It used to really frustrate me seeing people not having the life that they wanted. It saddened me that many didnt have the health they wanted, whether it was dis-ease, dis-order, depression or anxiety. It hurt me seeing people just going from one bad relationship to the next, being used and abused, or just having unhappy relationships and not finding their soul mates. And it truly disheartened me that people went to work just for the paycheck at the end of the month or, even worse, that the paycheck just allowed them to struggle through life. Not everyone is ready to open his or her mind to a whole new world. But if you are, then in this moment you can choose to unlock what you need within you. We are all perfect, we can still make changes, and that is fine, but within us we have everything we need we just need to put our attention and intention into it.

I have heard from experts that it can take weeks, months or even years of therapy to change a habit or problem, but I see things differently. It doesnt have to take long. In fact, transformation can take a moment, a realization or an awakening. When you were born you didnt think, Im going to have a poor life; Im going to lack fulfillment in my life.

Its just not meant to be that way and my motivation is to be able to help as many people as I truly can. This is about you as an individual. Life is meant to be good for you. Life is really meant to get you what you want, to have all the learning and the most amazing experiences, to have all that financial abundance, to have perfect health in every way and to have the career of your dreams.
