SUCCESS

THE TWENTY-FIVE YEAR ADVENTURE MOTIVATION DECK

SUCCESS is an adventure!

Getting there can be good, bad or otherwise.

BUT…. It’s still an adventure! How boring would life be without adventures?

It took Napoleon Hill twenty-five years plus to share his research and adventures, they weren’t just his adventures, he interviewed hundreds of people during his time to see what their key to success was… it’s simple. Keep on keeping on!

This deck will help you whenever you use it to stay the course. You can use it alone as a daily guide with the energy and wisdom of Hill riding shotgun with you as you do life. Or you can use this deck with other decks to get a vast knowledge of wisdom and different outlooks on what you are inquiring about.

Hill was no stranger to adversity. He got it, so did everyone that he researched. He called them 'testing times'. That’s all part of success. So, as Winston Churchill is known to say… “If you’re going through hell, keep going! You’re not meant to be there!”

Use this deck as a reminder, affirmation, or cheering section for your life and your goals. When you reach one goal, set another goal! And just keep going from there!

(But set another goal, Napoleon Hill's friend and other high achiever, W. Clement Stone would refer to the gap in between the goals as 'inspirational dissatisfaction'. It's when you reach a goal and then look around and think what's next, while you're still riding high on the adrenaline of your latest finish line.)

If Hill could bring his tried-and-true methods from one-hundred years ago to everyone, then we should all honor his bravery and show how successful we all can become!

"It keeps you running"... The Doobie Brothers

Cheers!

Return to Mindfulness

EIGHT SKILLS TO LIVE, LOVE, AND LEAD FROM A PLACE OF CLARITY AND CONNECTION

Life is messy. And it’s beautiful. The Return deck offers a mindful lens for everyday life, to find beauty even in the messiness. You can draw cards to gain clarity about what’s happening and what’s important in the middle of a challenging day. You can also practice with the cards when life is good—to deepen your connection with all of life in that moment and make meaningful choices that benefit you, your loved ones, and the world.

Like a mindful friend, these cards are designed to be there for you when you need them.

Practice and play with the mindfulness cards to:

  1. Start your day intentionally
  2. Find clarity about a situation or relationship
  3. Make choices that are personally and collectively fulfilling
  4. Share a meaningful experience with a loved one
  5. Return to your present moment experience, possibilities, and creative insight

These cards are a work of love combining many hours of meditation, contemplative discussions, research, and a human centered approach to address the question:

What would help meditators integrate mindfulness into their everyday life?

The answers, we discovered, are relevant to everyone—whether you’ve been meditating for years or you’re not interested in meditation. Here’s the thing. Our minds enable us to see clearly, connect deeply, and find creative solutions. The same mind can also cloud our thinking, create divisiveness, and cause harm to ourselves and others.

While we may not have control over our circumstances, we can systematically and playfully strengthen habits of the mind that enable us to return to our innate capacity to know, feel, love, and connect with what’s important while staying open to possibilities.

More specifically, there are eight habits of the mind that empower us to be mindful in the real world:
1. Awareness
2. Compassion
3. Curiosity
4. Energy
5. Appreciative Joy
6. Inner Calm
7. Focus
8. Equanimity

Yup, based on the original mindfulness teachings and modern science, we can strengthen these eight habits that disrupt our default tendencies to rush and react and be mindful. This deck was designed to help you do that!

ABOUT THE CREATORS
Each card in this deck has been lovingly created by Dr. Shalini Bahl and Max Alaghband to meet you wherever you are on your journey.

Dr. Bahl brings her lifelong commitment to mindfulness backed by her trainings, award-winning research, and experience of teaching thousands of people around the world.

Max Alaghband brings his training and expertise in yoga and human-centered design, which informed the development, testing, and trying of this product.

THINK and GLOW Rich Affirmation Deck

EXCERPTS, AFFIRMATIONS AND REMINDERS FROM NAPOLEON HILL’S THINK AND GROW RICH TIMELESS CLASSIC!

Excerpt from Napoleon Hill's Think & Grow Rich book:

~

The reward is worthy of your effort. Will you make the start and be convinced?

"If we are related," said the immortal Emerson, "we shall meet." In closing, may I borrow his thought, and say,

"If we are related, we have, through these pages, met."

~

This deck is a reminder of all of the great messages that Hill has shared throughout his career. His messages are timeless. Some are dated to the time they were written but absorb the core messages. They are tried and true.

As with oracle decks, you have a guide, just like Emerson and Hill stated in the quote above. You already know who your guide is. Use this deck to help guide you to your successes.

This deck can help you focus on what you need to know or focus on for your particular question, thought or concern. Use it alone as a guide or use it with other decks as a council group.

You don't need to be familiar with Napoleon Hill to resonate with his thoughts. And if you're an avid fan of his, like I am, as with all of his books, this deck feels like a long, lost friend every time you peruse it.

Sidenote: Here's an example of the era of when Hill was busy with all his research, living, adventures, etc... He gives examples of dressing for success.

Back in the day, he was referring to a nice suit and tie. So, my thoughts on that... dress however you feel you are a success. It's all about how you feel. Your inside will shine brighter than whatever style you choose to be YOU in!

As with - in, with - out. And his era was pre–Classic Rock, (my other favorite subject) so I'm giving you permission to dress like a rock star and shine!

Just be you! Shine on!

Think of success like a treasure hunt, you literally can stumble upon it by just using oracles, books, or music as a treasure map. Happy hunting!

And now as I emulate the great author, and leave a quote from a more recent era, "Let the good times roll!" The Cars...
