Mike Dooley - Infinite Possibilities: The Art of Living Your Dreams

Infinite Possibilities

THE ART OF LIVING YOUR DREAMS

MIKE DOOLEY

To Mom

and

To all who have taken the time to write of your gratitude for the

original twelve-hour audio version of this book during the past nine years.

You often ask me if I have any idea how much my work means to you,

but I wonder if you have any idea how much your

encouragement has meant to me.

There could be no better time than now, at this crossroads in history, to finally learn the truth about who you really are and all youre capable of. Please dont let the title of this book mislead you. Just as its about learning of your power, it is also about learning of your responsibilities. It shares exactly how to operate within the framework of these two pillars so that you can move through the affairs of the world, discovering opportunity where others have only found closed doors. This is a time of change and upheaval: the old is giving way to the new, naivet is giving way to truth, and spirituality is about to take on an entirely new meaning. Those who learn of their greatness, honor their passions, and accept responsibility for their own happiness will usher in a golden age that will dwarf any experienced in history. Theres never been a more exciting time to be alive.

I began writing the chapters that follow on January 1, 2001, as the script for the audio program that would become the genesis of this book. Only weeks before, Id announced to my email list that it would be offered in twelve one-hour installments during the coming calendar year, to be delivered at the first of each month. I was late.

I was also scared. I was starting my working life over, this time as a full-time writer, and at a loss to explain why I even had to begin a new career, except, of course, there was no money coming in. But I knew a few things about life and its mechanicsof our divinity and power, of holding to a dream and physically moving with it.

Since then, Infinite Possibilities has gone on to become one of the bestselling audio programs on the internet and in the self-improvement world. Its led to speaking engagements all over the globe, being featured in the bestselling book and DVD The Secret, and the creation of Notes from the Universe, the daily email I now send to a list thats grown to over three hundred thousand people in 182 countries, reminding them of how worthy they are, how powerful they are, and how much they deserve.

What I discovered yet again is that remembering my true place in lifeunderstanding my role in its creation and demonstrating such understandings through thought, word, and deedis always enough to change everything. In spite of their surroundings, even when unable to explain recent events and how I created this mess, through understanding lifes truths, people can still begin using what they already have, starting from wherever they are, to blast forward and improve their fortunes immeasurably.

This is what Infinite Possibilities promises: an understanding of your divine powers, a roadmap for harnessing lifes ultimate absolute, and a reminder of the infinite grace and perfection that always embraces us. You neednt explain whats led you here todaywhy the relationship didnt work out, why the business never took off, or why the diet didnt succeednor must the world be in harmony and governments honorable, in order for you to learn who you really are and to understand all the possibilities that still lie before you. Yet, as has always been true for me, once change begins sweeping into your life and a new chapter is written, youll be able to glance back with relative ease at the commotion that preceded the turning point and see the order and beauty in all that unfolded, as well as your hand in its creation and the purpose it served.

To the life of your dreams,

I believe a number of people have been tapped by the Universe in the past nine years, summoned by my dreams and actions, to inspire me, challenge me, or kick me in the butt, and their arrival into my life was choreographed to make this book as good as it could be and released exactly when it should be. While I wont share who did what, Id like to thank them all from the bottom of my heart:

Mom, for giving me the gift to dream and to believe in myself. Joe Vitale, author and marketing dynamo, for being the first to discover me (after Mom) by spreading the word and becoming a friend many years before either of us reached the mainstream. Rhonda Byrne, producer and author of The Secret, for being the second to reach out. Ill never forget when she and her fabulous sister, Glenda, greeted me one fine morning in Chicago to tell me of her vision for bringing joy to billions and her wish to include me in the caper. Cynthia Black, publisher at Beyond Words, for being the third person to emerge from the unseen, believing I had something to offer, after which her fantastic partner, Richard Cohn, and the rest of her amazing team at Beyond Wordsspecifically, Lindsay Brown, Marie Hix,Devon Smith, and Danielle Marshallenthusiastically jumped on board. Judith Curr, publisher at Atria, for her supernatural gut instincts. Julie Knowles, editor, for taking me to the pavement with her calculated skepticism. Eric Rayman for his brilliance and integrity as one of the finest attorneys I may ever know. And Hope Koppelman, Danika Burr, Jesse Mazur, Paola Malicki, Amanda Reid, Carrie-anne Larmore, Crystal Floyd, and Kody Kasper for their priceless contributions to the business of TUT and our combined vision of Global Domination!
