Mike Dooley. What this man doesn’t know about manifesting probably isn’t worth knowing.
We’ve been following his Notes From The Universe emails for some time (along with 450,000 other loyal subscribers), amazed that his daily little nuggets of inspiration always seem to hit the proverbial nail on the head and give us a boost where needed!
Mike was also one of the co-stars in The Secret, and the author of the New York Times bestsellers, Infinite Possibilities: The Art of Living Your Dreams and Leveraging the Universe: 7 Steps to Engaging Life’s Magic – so needless to say, we’re pretty big fans of him here at FinerMinds!
So to lift your spirits and bring some manifesting magic to your day, we wanted to share with you our favorite Mike Dooley quotes. It was pretty hard to narrow down our all-time favorite quotes (and even harder to pick our number one) – however here they are!
The first one listed below always strikes a chord with us because when we think we can’t do something, it’s always good to be reminded that everyone (including the world’s best) started their journey from somewhere.
Which one is your favorite?
1) The one thing all famous authors, world class athletes, business tycoons, singers, actors, and celebrated achievers in any field have in common is that they all began their journeys when they were none of these things.
Yet still, they began their journeys.
2) I do believe that the single most important thing I could ever share with you with regard to maximizing the health, harmony, and happiness in your life can be summed up in just two words: ‘Love Yourself’.
3) Contrary to popular thinking, being worthy isn’t something you earn, it’s something you recognize.
4) Step number one for changing the entire world, is falling in love with it as it already is. The same is true for changing yourself.
5) When just starting out on a new journey it’s only natural to feel vulnerable. After all, it may seem that you have much to lose. But may I remind you that never again, at any other point in the same journey, will you have so much to gain.
6) Oh, shoot! I don’t think I ever told you that whilst in the pursuit of a grand and wonderful dream, should you all of a sudden round a bend and see before you an enormous uncharted mountain with towering cliffs, jagged rocks, and seemingly impenetrable walls, just consider it a sign that your dream is considerably more worthwhile than you had previously imagined, and that you are exactly where you’re supposed to be.
7) Never regret love. No matter how blind, it improved your world view. No matter how foolish, it made you wiser. And no matter how generous, it made you more.
8) When you hear words that hurt, distract, or disappoint, at minimum, a silent whisper of gratitude is due to the soul who unwittingly risked friendship with a spiritual giant, so that you might sooner understand that words needn’t ever hurt, distract, or disappoint.
9) It may seem a bit backwards for some, but the first step one might take towards rearranging the present circumstances of their life is to stop dwelling upon the present circumstances of their life.
10) In a way, life itself tracks a person’s generosity, much like an airline might track frequent flyer miles. The more you give, the more you earn, the higher you fly, and the further you go.
