- Set your sights on the first step and get started today
If You Can Dream It You Can Do It
Convert abstract dreams and longings into goals.
The proven strategies in this book come from the inspired genius of José Silva, creator of the Silva Mind Control Method and the Silva UltraMind ESP Systems, along with other veteran Silva lecturers and researchers.
Use these Simple Techniques to Create a Better Life, Starting Today

- Earn more money
- Find a mate
- Get a better job
- Change your weight
- Improve your health
- Boost your self-esteem
- Help your children do better in school
- Make more sales
- Discover and achieve your life purpose
- And more...
Would you like to:
- Use the untapped power of your mind to help you achieve your dreams?
- Supercharge yourself with energy that will cause people to wonder how you get so much done?
- Know the most efficient way to make correct decisions, and then act on them?
Here are the answers you need to:
- Have whatever you want to have
- Do anything you want to do
- Be whatever you desire to be
Clarify your goals:
Your first step to success is to define what success is for you, and establish a clear, concise goal.
- “Happiness” is not a goal.
- “Lots of money” is not a goal.
Those are dreams without direction, and you are unlikely to achieve them until you create proper goals. Decision making and goal setting are two of the best business management and productivity tools to help you develop a success mindset.
In this book, several of the top Silva Mind Control lecturers explain how to:
- Determine your purpose in life
- Make decisions to fulfill that purpose
- Establish goals to ensure that you receive everything you need
Buy now to start today.
Includes an action plan to help you achieve your goals.

Story
Questioning thousands of parents and educators, Dr. Wayne Dyer learned firsthand what people really want for their children. They don't particularly want their kids to go to fancy schools, acquire riches, or live "the good life". They do want them to have personal integrity and high self-esteem, and to grow up with love and peace in their hearts. Children raised the Wayne Dyer way feel useful and needed. They are inner- rather than outer-directed. They live a stress-free life naturally, without resorting to drugs.

Come inside a jury room as one juror leads a starkly divided room to consensus. Join a young CIA officer as he recruits a reluctant foreign agent. And sit with an accomplished surgeon as he tries, and fails, to convince yet another cancer patient to opt for the less risky course of treatment. In Supercommunicators, Charles Duhigg blends deep research and his trademark storytelling skills to show how we can all learn to identify and leverage the hidden layers that lurk beneath every conversation.

Valuable advice and information.
- By Cheryl J. on 03-13-24
By: Charles Duhigg
This didn't need the Silva name attached to it because it barely mentions his system. While advice on setting goals is fine, the whole book can be summed up in the last chapter. There really isn't much value in reading the previous chapters.
I also miss Ed Bernd Jr.'s narration. The narrator is fine but Ed Bernd Jr. did more than just narrate. You can tell he lived and breathed the Silva method.
I would recommend Jose Silva's Choose Success Master Course over this one.
