Unleash Your True Potential

O

ne of the ways to unleash potential and achieve greatness is by using the power of the subconscious mind. The reason is the subconscious mind processes 90% bits of information in one moment whereas the conscious mind processes only 10% bits of information. It is also known as a place where all the infinite intelligence lies. With the subconscious mind, our body systems such as the heartbeat could work in autopilot and harmony. There are three ways to unleash

your potential and turning your dreams into reality; 1. Re-programme your belief. Remove the beliefs that sabotage your dreams. Restore it with new beliefs that can help you tap into the world of possibilities and greatness. Belief is a powerful force in life. If you believe that you can achieve your dreams, that belief will make it come true. One way to programme your belief is through the powerful affirmations that need to be read in repetition on a daily basis.

The WANTED Announces their FIRST SINGLE OF 2013; ‘Walks Like Rihanna’

O

ne of the biggest pop acts in the world, The Wanted, has announced details of their first single of 2013 - ‘Walks Like Rihanna’ is to be released in the UK on June 23rd. The new track was co-written and produced by the legendary Dr Luke who has previously worked with the likes of Katy Perry, Kelly Clarkson, Pink and Britney Spears. ‘Walks Like Rihanna’ is a pure pop summer anthem, on the song Tom Parker said, “We are really excited about this single. We feel it’s a little different from the usual Wanted sound, we’ve stripped it back to pure pop, and it’s just a feel good, fun track. Fun is a good word to describe the video too. Let’s just say it’s got a lot of character.” The video for ‘Walks Like Rihanna’ takes a tongue in cheek look at what being in a boy band is all about, in the undeniable style of The Wanted. It was shot in LA and was released on 8th May.

The single includes vocals from Nathan Sykes who underwent specialist surgery to correct a hemorrhaging vocal cord in Los Angeles in mid April. The surgery went as planned however, it is still uncertain when Nathan will be re-joining the band. 2013 has been an exceptionally busy year already for The Wanted. It began with them scooping The People’s Choice Award for Favorite Breakout Artist, beating off competition from Fun, Gotye, Carly Rae Jepson and One Direction. The band has been filming a TV show in the US for E! titled, ‘The Wanted Life’, the show will air in the US on June 2nd with UK and international transmission dates to be confirmed shortly. They have also been in the studio working on their forthcoming album which will be released globally later this year. The Wanted will also be performing shows and completing major promotion across the globe this year.

Once you feel centered, and your thoughts are calm, say positive affirmations to yourself in repetition. As a start you can say this; ‘I am achieving my goals and my dreams and I know I can’. Make sure that you fall into sleep with the positive affirmations stored in your mind.
