Yep, there’s more to do with that sexy feeling than… well, you know. Great fun and pleasure! And in addition to nurturing your intimate relationship, it can actually transform your work, activate your creativity and yes even impact your bank account. Sounds more like a turn off. I know! But hear me out.

Those days after a great date or an intimate night with our lover or significant other can be some of the best days of our lives. I know I’ve had incredibly productive days in that state. Walking on cloud 9. I don’t need to convince you of that. I’m sure you’ve experienced it for yourself.

This, often misunderstood, aspect of our lives provides us with an invaluable resource. In his landmark book Napoleon Hill made an incredible connection between sexuality and our mental faculties. He said:

The human mind responds to stimuli, through which it may be “keyed up” to high rates of vibration, known as enthusiasm, creative imagination, intense desire, etc.

He listed 10 mental stimulants in his book Think and Grow Rich. At the top of the list, as the most powerful, is sex, followed by others which included, love, music and auto-suggestion, also known as affirmations.

What these things do is, increase the frequency of the vibration of the mind. Viola, you are connected to new thoughts and potential, a genius state if you will, otherwise inaccessible in your ordinary state of mind.

Sex desire is the most powerful of human desires. When driven by this desire,

[people] develop

  • keenness of imagination
  • courage
  • will-power
  • persistence
  • and creative ability unknown to them at other times.

So strong and impelling is the desire for sexual contact that [people] freely run the risk of life and reputation to indulge it.

When harnessed, and redirected (transmuted) along other lines, this motivating force maintains all of its attributes of keenness of imagination, courage, etc., which may be used as powerful creative forces in literature, art, or in any other profession or calling, including, of course, the accumulation of riches.

Now the trick is learning to be in the driver’s seat and in control of your life and emotions.

  1. Don’t let those feelings dictate your actions. You might just experience more fulfillment channeling or transmuting some of that mental energy into a productive aspect of your work.
  2. Keep that energy alive. Kiss your honey when you see him/her or give ’em a call, then set out to conquer the giants.
  3. Before tackling a creative project stimulate your mind. Thinking about those special times doesn’t have to be a distraction. Now transmute energy into your task.
  4. Remember feeling sexy has its place, but don’t forget about the other mental stimulants: love, masterminds, music, affirmations, etc.
