With a quick initial glance, it's easy to pass over this volume as just another book and author going over the time-trodden steps to reaching your goals. A closer peek beneath the surface reveals that the material included in this book cuts into entirely new territory: clear-cut how-to information about ways to take desires from your formless ideas into this physical world of form.

The theme for Nemeth's work is luminosity. She defines it as having:

• A sense of possibility and promise in your life
• Knowing that all is well
• Realizing that already you have everything you need to be successful

She delves behind this somewhat amorphous concept of luminosity with four concrete steps of Clarity, Focus, Ease and Grace with many supporting methods sprinkled throughout each chapter. Her gentle, yet provocative, nature shows early as she asks you to open up to the new realities she is going to present. At the end of the first chapter, she asks her readers to toss out their "doubts, fears, judgments, evaluations, attitudes, states of mind and points of view...[and say] yes to [your] life's adventure." She reinforces that with the mantra, "Nevertheless, I am willing."

For some, this step of simply being willing is a big step forward. Nothing happens for us unless willingness is there. It is your first key to unlocking life's energies.

The Clarity step signifies getting out of the fog, creating a game worth playing and dealing with Monkey Mind. These tools help you find out what you are aiming for and how you usually get hung up doing it. That's where Monkey Mind comes in. Borrowing the term from meditation practices, she define Monkey Mind as what happens to you when you step out of your comfort zone, It's the mental chatter that talks you out of things and leaves you to sit and wonder why your life is going nowhere. As with all her techniques and methods, expect to be challenged to step up and be your best.

How clear are you on what you want? You masterfully create what you desire when you can palpably sense your goal. The tools are here for you to make that real for you.

With Focus, Nemeth asks you for the expression of who you are and what engages you at the deepest levels. This is where the manifesting of your desires hits warp speed and takes off. She gives solid information about bringing out the "you" you've been hiding and being all you are meant to be in this life. Her tools are Life Intentions and Standards of Integrity. She also asks you to find the conclusions you lived with and shows you how to develop other ones that lead to less struggle.

Most goal achievement focuses you on what you are seeking. This is different because it asks you to focus on who are being while you are doing the seeking. This shift opens you up to creating entirely new, fabulous results.

Less struggle is the bridge to the Ease step. Here, the shifts you defined previously in the Focus step start to take shape. She leads you through mastering the six energies of money, time, physical vitality, creativity, enjoyment and relationship. Each adds important components to bringing the formless into physical creation. Then, she lays out the five stages of the game so you can glide through them.

In Grace, she emphasizes the importance of the practice of gratitude and wraps it into feeding your Life Intentions and Standards of Integrity. The work comes full circle when she reemphasizes the willing spirit you must be to manifest your ideas into physical reality.

The steps Nemeth shares are more subtle than the more traditional goal-seeking genre, yet oh so more important to the ultimate success you want to achieve. Mastery at this level is truly mastery at life. Improve your mastery by getting involved with this book!

While these are things you might sense are already present for you, I ask you: how solid and significant they are for you every day? If they are not, the remainder of this book sets out to help you make them that way.
