Jack Canfield
Jack Canfield is one of the best known teachers to feature in The Secret Movie. He has been a long-time teacher of the Law of Attraction. He is probably best known for his endearing and well-loved book series Chicken Soup for the Soul.
Canfield started out in life as a humble high school teacher. Since then his dreams led him to become a Harvard graduate, psychotherapist and personal development teacher. His great motivational skills were honed at a school in Chicago, where he quickly learned that when he lectured his class, their attention drifted! But when he told them stories about people like them, who had become successful, they listened with great interest. Those very stories eventually found their way into the first Chicken Soup book.
I think the story of how Jack Canfield and his co-writer Mark Victor Hansen found a publisher is worth recounting, because it demonstrates their personal application of The Law of Attraction. When they set out trying to sell their humble little manuscript, they were rejected by every publisher they sent it to---about 220! Eventually they went to a book fair and literally hawked around their script until one small publishing house expressed interest and agreed to a small print run. Now if they had given up after rejection number 220, they would have been failed, unpublished authors. But they continued to find that success was just around the corner with publisher # 221! Today, there are 105 books in the Chicken Soup series, in 40 different langauges, with more than 100 million copies in print. All because Canfield and Hansen believed in themselves and their little book and kept on keeping on, until they got the result they wanted! Yet again, this is an example of how the greatest success teachers are always those who have experienced the journey from difficulty to achievement. They have all had to overcome great obstacles in their lives to WIN the success we see them enjoy today. It didn't come easy or fall into their laps.
Jack Canfield's Scientific Approach to Wealth Training
Canfield has acquired considerable skills as a wealth coach from his decades of observing how people behave and react to the challenge of change. He is now a master at helping his students alter their emotional and thought habits in order to free themselves to create a better life. Jack Canfield believes that we need the same scientific, methodical approach to changing our habits in order to attract good things into our lives. He is big into the technology of the mind. I once heard him explain how he applies this to the Law of Attraction. He expains it as having to retrain our brains, just like NASA astronauts have to retrain their brains to adapt to loss of gravity. How they do do it? They undergo a training program. A planned, thought-out systemised, daily program that is proven to bring about an end result. A scientific program. He said that a study of NASA astronauts in training, showed that it takes 30 days for their brains to rewire themselves into a new way of thinking. In this training program The astronauts were put into a zero-gravity capsule, upside-down for a short time period every day. Naturally, they saw everything upside down. After 16 days, the wiring between their eyes and their brains adjusted to this new habit of being upside-down. They began to see things the right way up, even when they were floating around with their heads pointing to the ground! It also became apparent that if they continued with their rewiring training for 30 consecutive days without a break, the rewiring would stay in place, so that whenever they were upside down, their brains would compensate and conveniently ensure that they could see everything as though they were standing upright! However, another really interesting discovery was that if they interrupted their training between Day 16 and Day 30, the brain would not stay rewired, but would revert back to its habitual pre-training ways of seeing. The moral of the story? Well, you can actually change how your brain works. But only if you reprogram it consistently in a planned, disciplined way, for at least 30 days. Jack Canfield has appplied this NASA research to his own work on the Law of Attraction. Working with his colleagues, Bob Proctor and Michael Beckwith on a follow-up program to The Secret, he built these techniques into the training system they devised. The SGR program that emerged, is a state-of-the-art, cutting-edge system of spiritual mind-technology. I believe that this, scientific side of the Law of Attraction, is very important. All good training programs should take account of the evidence we have about our brains work and how our feelings and thoughts physically shape our brains. When we pay attention to our emotions and switch to positive feelings about the life we want, as opposed to feeling sad about what we do not have, we literally re-form our brains. We forge a new physical pathway between the Amyglia, the primal emotional seat of the brain, and the Cerebellum, the thought part. When we leave behind our old patterns of negative, depressed, or sad thoughts and train ourselves to think happy, optimistic, feel-good thoughts, we literally create new connections in our brains! We create new electrical sparks that communicate between the different brain cells. The founder of the New Thought movement, Prentice Mulford in the 1800's was the first to coin the phrase thoughts are things. Today, scientific research on how the human brain works, has proven him to be right. Our emotions and thoughts literally shape our brains, and our brains shape how the world reflects itself back to us.
