Seek Inner Peace
Wayne Dyer’s “10 Principles for Success and Inner Peace” work explores basic principles for changing one’s outlook on life. The principles for success and inner peace is a simple, honest guide to living happily.
I previously posted all ten principles on my blog. Here is a chance to discover them all from a single list that links to each of the posts. Originally, each post features Dr. Dyers video. Most were since removed from YouTube, but I replaced the missing video with quality, and suitable, other training videos.
We are all “works in progress” we may say. Sometime, we get caught up in the past only to feel there is too little or no energy to live in the present.
The series of lessons is designed to help us move away from the dominance of the past (problems) into opportunities for higher energy and creativity that stem from deepest wisdom and truth (solutions). Understanding of wisdom and truth then is expanding. Your truth is expanding… as you move into the flow of your higher-self truth (living in your solution).

10 Principles for Success and Inner Peace

#1 Have a Mind That Is Open to Everything and Attached to Nothing
An open mind allows you to explore and create and grow. In all of your relationships, if you can love someone enough to allow them to be exactly what they choose to be without any expectations or attachments from you, you’ll know true peace in your lifetime.
#2 You can’t give away what you don’t have
Think of the people you know who give love in response to negative energy that’s directed their way. If what you give is self-respect and self-love, the universe will return the love and respect you’ve been radiating. It’s really so simple.
#3 There Are No Justified Resentments
Be willing to send the higher, faster energies of love, peace, joy, forgiveness, and kindness as your response to whatever comes your way… readily offering forgiveness.
#4 Don’t die with your music still in you
Find your passion and follow it even if it means marching to your own drumbeat when it’s different from what everyone else or society says you should be doing.
#5 Embrace Silence
There’s a momentary silence in the space between your thoughts that you can become aware of with practice. In this silent space, you’ll find the peace that you crave in your daily life.

The Coming of the Kingdom – Luke 17:20-21, KJV
“And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.”
.
#6 Give Up Your Personal History
Your past is over! When you’re at peace, you radiate a different kind of energy than when you’re stressed or depressed. Your mediation practice keeps building immunity. The more you achieve peacefulness through meditation, the more your peaceful state impacts those around you.
#7 You Can’t Solve a Problem with the Same Mind That Created It
In order to solve relationship problems, you need to adopt a different mindset by questioning the negative thought(s) and replacing them with positive ones that are as or more true.
#8 Treat Yourself As If You Already Were What You’d Like to Become
The more you see yourself as what you’d like to become, the more inspired you are . . . you discover that you’re a greater person than you ever dreamed yourself to be . . . dormant forces that were dead or nonexistent, springing into being and collaborating with you as a result of your becoming inspired and acting as if what you want is already here!
#9 Treasure Your Divinity
There is no place that God is not. You are energized by the divine intelligence that supports everything and everyone on this planet.
10 Wisdom Is Avoiding All Thoughts Which Weaken You
Authentic wisdom is the ability to monitor yourself at all times to determine your relative state of weakness or strength, and to shift out of those thoughts that weaken you.

Review:
Wayne Dyer’s Top 10 Rules For Success
.
Wayne Walter Dyer (born May 10, 1940) is an American self-help author and motivational speaker. His first book Your Erroneous Zones (1976) is one of the best-selling books of all time, with an estimated 35 million copies sold.
Dyer was born in Detroit, Michigan, to the late Melvin Lyle and Hazel Irene Dyer and spent much of his childhood (until he was ten years old) in an orphanage on the east side of Detroit. After graduating from Denby High School Dyer served in the United States Navy from 1958 to 1962. He received his D.Ed. degree in counseling from Wayne State University for a dissertation titled “Group Counseling Leadership Training in Counselor Education” under the supervision of Mildred Peters.
Dyer worked as a high school guidance counselor in Detroit and as a professor of counselor education at St. John’s University in New York City. He pursued an academic career, published in journals and established a private therapy practice. His lectures at St. John’s, which focused on positive thinking and motivational speaking techniques, attracted many students. A literary agent persuaded Dyer to document his theories in his first book called Your Erroneous Zones. Dyer quit his teaching job and began a publicity tour of the United States of America, doggedly pursuing bookstore appearances and media interviews (“out of the back of his station wagon”, according to Michael Korda, making the best-seller lists “before book publishers even noticed what was happening”), which eventually led to national television talk show appearances including Merv Griffin, The Tonight Show, and Phil Donahue.
Dyer proceeded to build on his success with lecture tours, a series of audiotapes, and regular publication of new books. Dyer’s message resonated with many in the New Thought Movement and beyond. He often recounted anecdotes from his family life, and repeatedly used his own life experience as an example. His self-made man success story was a part of his appeal. Dyer told readers to pursue self actualization, calling reliance on the self as a guide to “religious” experience, and suggested that readers emulate Jesus Christ, whom he termed both an example of a self-actualized person, and a “preacher of self-reliance”. Dyer criticized societal focus on guilt, which he saw as an unhealthy immobilization in the present due to actions taken in the past. He advocated readers to see how parents, institutions, and even they, themselves, have imposed guilt trips upon themselves.
Although Dyer initially resisted the spiritual tag, by the 1990s he had altered his message to include more components of spirituality when he wrote the book Real Magic, and discussed higher consciousness, in the book Your Sacred Self.
He was influenced by Abraham Maslow’s concept of self-actualization, and by the teachings of Swami Muktananda whom he considers as his master. In his book, “Wishes Fulfilled; Mastering the Art of Manifesting,” Dr. Dyer also credits Saint Francis of Assisi and the Chinese philosopher, Lao Tzu and their teachings as being foundational influences in his work.
I believe life is all about balance and this is great advice to achieve that for a sound mind, body, and spirit. I will definitely have to consciously practice these 10 principles daily to achieve it. Thanks!
P.S. Thanks for stopping by my blog!
Thanks for blogging great advice and posts Cody! Its my pleasure to share the blogosphere with you.
I love Wayne Dyers Books… 10 very good principles 🙂
Wayne Dyer is often misunderstood to be a new age charlatan — I’ve seen in him wisdom since the first time I saw him on PBS many years ago. He is a great teacher… someone that I like to emulate.
Yes I too have had his books from early on and also his tapes going back to the cassette days 🙂 I also loved his book A Promise is a Promise… I often pick up his books from my shelves just to flick through the pages.. Its amazing how often you will just get inspired as a ‘Sign’ jumps from the page telling you just what you needed to hear at that time.. 🙂
Thank you for replying to my comment 🙂
Nice reading about you
Thanks for visiting my blog. Be in touch. Browse through the category sections, I feel you may find something of your interest.
Good post, Eric. You have helped a lot of people today 🙂
Reblogged this on MadeleineMaya.
Reblogged this on SHERRI OF PALM SPRINGS and commented:
Wonderful and so interesting
Eric this is a wonderful ill re-blog

That’s good stuff. I wish you would put it in an e-book with an easy read format with examples (e.g. parables, analogies)
Thank you Heather; perhaps… an e-book is the very thing I may give some time to working on. Thank you for sharing that idea.
I would like to have it. What great reference material to have on hand…on phone.
Actually, the number 1 principle: “Have a Mind That Is Open to Everything and Attached to Nothing” is one of the most difficult principles I ever worked on being. It is VERY tricky… the body and its signals, attraction, absent mindedness or a lazy or a desire or even lusting … there are many many difficulties of getting this correct… plus, being wrong is not fun either… anyway…
I have some guiding principles for myself and this became one of them (actually, I follow all of the principles as best I am able). My mentoring though finds me forever working on open mindedness in myself and with people more than any other principle. There are three things that I work to establish with a person in mentoring… 1) become honest with yourself… do the best you can and you’ll notice that being honest is difficult but that its well worth the effort to be more honest – so, being mindful of what we say and do is helpful to increase being honest. 2) be open to others and to learning – there is higher knowledge and wisdom always. 3) seek conscious contact with God (Holy Spirit) – God is unconditional love and we must ever seek His guidance then because in our world, love seems to be only a very small part of what we are doing – always there is more to learn about being loving – in the higher reality love is all that is real.
I like using whatever training that a person wants to use as long as it reinforces making spiritual progress.
I do not give sermons and provide my services in our Christian religious community. However, my three objectives typically lead me and others that I work with to return to the religious practices of choice.
I like that you identify the specifics in #1 which you are challenged by, somehow, I always tell myself that I don’t like to judge folks, but it is a conscious effort and I am pricked in my spirit when I do it unconsciously. Great follow up. vw
I agree with TJ; as I was going through the list, I realized that #1 was included in a partial list which I previously didn’t agree with in totallity. But #7 is great food for thought; reminds one to “let not the sun go down on your wrath”, pointing to the fact that you need to get in a different frame of mind right quick and solve the issues and that takes a different mindset.
Thanks for sharing Eric. vw
Thanks Ms Woods… I opened a new comment since you made reference to the reply by Tim.

ok will revisit later on. vw
I don’t always agree with the things Dr. Dyer says, maybe just because I know the same principles he shares are biblical in nature although that part seems to be left out often. These are great ideas in general to have though. Just my 2 sense…Great post!
