Thank you for sharing Mary.
Lag time, also called the buffer of the time between the desire and its manifestation, is a great time when properly used. It allows you to re-define the details of your desires and to bask in a mood of positive expectation.
Here’s an excerpt from my new book which explains this:
“A dream: I live in a Magic Planet, in all respects similar to Planet Earth, but this planet can perceive my every desire and make it happen instantly. This magical world comes with a thin layer of colored stars, contained in the atmosphere, which records all thoughts, desires, but only the beautiful and truly wanted ones, instantly realizing them.
There is no need to talk, you just have to feel it in your heart for at least 40 seconds and immediately the planet materializes your desire. In a world like that, it makes sense to spend all of your time to desire, so this is the only wise thing to do, since everything here is instantly created if you ask from the heart. This is an easy task, since it is only given things that make you feel good. In this special planet, only those positive thoughts have the power to be realized. So a typical day takes place between the realization of a desire to another.
It ‘s like rubbing Aladdin’s lamp. It ‘s a wonderful world. Since every wish is realized immediately, it makes no sense to doubt, so there is possibility of doubt. Since there is no possibility of doubt, in my mind there is only room for new desires of joy and happiness. All is well, forever.
But gradually, I start to get bored of this planet where it takes place all at once, I want to leave the dream and go back to my Earth where it requires more time for my wishes to come true. In fact, it’s delicious to bask in your desire for days or weeks, changing it, shaping it, rather than just attending to its instant materialization. In the dream, I realize the perfection of my land, where you can always realize every desire, but it takes longer. And the moment in which you are molding your desire, waiting for its completion, is the most beautiful moment. When I wake up, I give thanks for living in the most perfect of all the planets.”

I live by this Calvin collage quote. His idea was so simplistic and the meaning behind it is more powerful than the words he uses. The premise, is to never give up…Never ever give up. Plain and simple. Simply put into word format…but hard for the majority of people to do and accept as a reality for all success seeking entrepreneur. I know with this successful blog MARY, you have showed that persistence. Great work! This is coming from someone who likes you work..and is sucking up too you a bit…lol

i am a new here from China. Spending almost 14 years to learn english, but still not good at it. After reading this tips for success, i prepare a booklet to write down my thoughts. The first thing i want to achieve is impoving my english in short time no matter using which way.

Hi Mary well from the sounds of your last post on A List Bloggers, you are walking the talk. Nevertheless I believe that in some sense one’s integrity must be compromised in order for you or anyone to be successful.
The person who has achieved the success must differ in some fundamental sense from the person before the success, failing which there is no meaningful success because nothing transformative has taken place.

Great article, Mary. I have been wrestling with the concept of "what is success" for a few months as I re-evauate my goals in life. Personally I think that for an individual to consider themselves a success, they must be satisfied with their level of spirituality and/or the progress they are making on their path. Without that spirituality, I think any outward signs of of what society might consider success (wealth, power, etc) are hollow achievements that fail to satisfy. .-= Ed Hands´s last blog ..The Zen Den is finished Sort of =-.
