“I believe you can have a much better life if you are true to your core self - therefore guided by love and intuitive inner knowing. And further, you can learn to develop your creative potential and advance holistically: in body, mind and spirit.” ~ Peter Shepherd - Email

"A real decision is measured by the fact that you've taken a new action. If there's no action, you haven't truly decided."

Of course, fear and doubt prevent action, but a real decision has overcome those.

Firstly in this issue, Jafree Ozwald says success is not about luck or lucky genes; it's about learning appropriate skills, then using them to create the life you truly want. Next, Philip Humbert has discovered a technique that enables a person to access a limitless resource of creative juice that will fuel them forever. Finally, Harold W. Becker asks, how many times do you listen within to your own thoughts and feelings about life rather than reacting or responding to outer suggestions and conditions?

All too often our personal development has already ended by the time we reach adulthood. We've 'grown up' and know enough to hold down a job. If we are fortunate we find our niche and as much as possible solve the problems of survival, then we stick with those solutions. But our upbringing hasn't taught us most of what we need to know in order to make the most of our potential, to have truly fulfilling careers and relationships.

We've learned to play a role but our emotions may scare and mystify us. We may not have learned to express our needs nor to listen generously to others. We may have lost touch with the intuitive and creative faculties that we knew as children and now try to work things out analytically, hampered by the false information indoctrinated into us.

We cling to a set of beliefs and our minds become less and less open. We may not even like ourselves much, far short of recognizing the power and loving nature of our inner, spiritual selves. Our personal development has only begun; surely it should not stop there?

A natural trait of humans is to be constantly developing, growing and moving toward a balanced and mature way of being. Our present personality is determined by both who and what we have been and by the person we strive to become. The goal of personal development is to learn and apply that which enables us to attain emotional wellbeing, understanding and effectiveness, and mindful awareness, and to share this knowledge with others.

Personal development is the conscious evolution of human nature, and yet throughout history it has been sorely lacking! Although it is in our nature to learn and grow, we are held back by our culture, which is predominantly focused on survival needs, each of us in competition with others, and our spiritual inner nature is repressed. The animal rules. We make no room for unconditional love.

Even though the culture may have evolved with technological advancement and administrative complexity, human nature has not moved forward as it might. Our consciousness and mindfulness remain as always. We are now paying the price for Mankind's selfishness and inconsideration. Going forward, the quality of our lives on this planet - even our survival - now depends on each of us taking responsibility for our personal growth.

The human being needs to awaken to the soul that inhabits each body and is our true self and source of inner knowing. Awaken through a process of self-discovery, leading to one's own, self-directed spirituality. We need to become mindfully conscious instead of ruled by the dictates of instincts, past habits and fixed beliefs. We need to throw away dogma, open our minds and reconsider. Instead of fear about our survival and competitive angst, we will then be motivated by compassionate understanding and creative love.

For those that do move forward, the next epoch - that is upon us now in 2013 - will be a celebration of human cooperation and shared love. It's our best hope for the future - and it's in our hands.

The Training has undergone two years development and testing in 2010 - 2012. It was launched professionally as real-world workshops in Ballyroan Community Centre in Dublin in September 2012 and will be gradually rolled out within Ireland and then internationally as more Life Coaches come on board to deliver it and Community Centres come forward to host it.

By these means Trans4mind intends, along with its existing online ebooks, courses, articles, videos and other resources on personal development, to fulfil its mission: to awaken the consciousness of humanity by harnessing the full potential of the Internet and developing the power of community worldwide.

We intend Trans4mind to remain freely accessible and to be maintained in perpetuity as a personal development service, dedicated to the uplifting of humanity WORLD-WIDE. This is achieved through providing each visitor with an abundant choice, both of free and paid resources, to create their path of personal and spiritual growth - and to do this in a wide range of languages.

We do this because it is our life's purpose: to assist the personal development of men, women and young people throughout the world. If you would like to provide the Trans4mind services in a new language, and to create a new site in the Trans4mind Network, we invite your participation...

Held late July at the Trans4mind Training Center in the beautiful countryside of Burgundy, France, the annual gathering of Service Providers brings together those inspired individuals around the world who run a Trans4mind personal development site in their own language.

We're in the heart of France. The energies here are cleaner than clean; it is easy to feel serene in the silence and tranquility; mindfulness is a breath away.

We include energy work and meditation; healing and massage; informative audios and videos; plus discussion and planning. Alongside, we have trips to the local countryside - swimming in the lakes, walking along the canals, exploring parks and local historic towns.

If you'd like to bring Trans4mind to your country, it won't cost you anything; what we do require is a burning desire to be of loving service, to help raise the consciousness of your society and bring the benefits of personal development to the world at large. We invite your participation.
