Steve Pavlina and the Million Dollar Experiment

Steve Pavlina began writing about some the beneficial habits he formed that helped him to make his game business, Dexterity.com a success. This writings provided the springboard for his personal development website, Stevepavlina.com. The subjects of his writings range from the practical (developing self-discipline, goal-setting, increasing your personal productivity) to the metaphysical (do we create our own "world" based on our beliefs? meditation, find your purpose in life).
One subject he recently wrote about was the intention-manifestation model of goal achievement (as opposed to the cause and effect model). In a nutshell, the idea is that the power to achieve goals ultimate derives from making the decision to have your desired result come about, then consciously being aware of the opportunities and resources that manifest themselves to aid you reaching your goal.
As an experiment to see what kind of results can be found using the intention-manifestation model, he has initiated the Million Dollar Experiment. The goal is to generate $1,000,000 of additional wealth by putting the intention out and maintaining awareness of any synchronistic or coincidental opportunities that may come about, and use them to help reach the goal.
Either he's crazy or he's onto something. An abundance of additional practical info on personal development and time management make this site definitely worth a look.
