I originally had this blog to share a book called Secret, by Rhonda Byrne. I was writing blogs on it regularly. However, it has been sometime since the book review was over. Now I am just sharing some views and feelings.
What can You do right now to begin to turn your life around? The very first thing is to start making a list of things to be grateful for. This shifts your energy and starts to shift your thinking. Whereas before this exercise you might be focusing on what you do not have, your complaints, and your problems, you go in a different direction when you do this exercise.You start to be grateful for all the things that you feel good about.
GRATITUDE IS ABSOLUTELY THE WAY TO BRING MORE INTO YOUR LIFE.
Every man knows that when his wife is appreciating him for little things that he does, what does he want to do? He wants to do more. It is always about appreciation. It pulls things in. It attracts support.
WHATEVER WE THINK ABOUT AND THANK ABOUT, WE BRING ABOUT.
Gratitude has been such a powerful exercise for me. Every morning I get up and say " Thank You" Every morning, I start running through what am grateful fro, from the moment my feet hit the ground and brushing my teeth and doing my morning things, like showering. I am not just thinking about them and doing some routine. I am putting it out there and I am feeling the feelings of gratitude.
I say thank You hundreds of times by the time I am ready for the day.
As I do this, I am powerfully creating my day and all what it will contain. I am setting my frequency for the day and intentionally declaring the way I want my day to go, rather than stumbling out of bed, and letting the day take control of me. There is no more powerful way to start your day than this. You are the creator of your life, and so begin by intentionally creating your day.
Joe, a wonderful man told me his favorite was the gratitude process, and that his use of gratitude had contributed to all he had achieved in his life. With all the success he has attracted to himself, he continues to use gratitude every day, even for smallest things. When he gets a parking space he always says THANK YOU. AS SOON AS YOU START TO FEEL DIFFERENT ABOT WHAT YOU ALREADY HAVE, YOU WILL START TO ATTRACT MORE OF THE GOOD THINGS. MORE OD THE THINGS YOU CAN BE GRATEFUL FOR. YOU COULD LOOK AROUND AND SAY," well, I don't have the car that want, I don't have the spouse I want, I do not have the health I want"..... WHOAH BACK UP! BACK UP. THOSE ARE THE THINGS YOU DO NOT WANT, FOCUS ON THE THINGS YOU ALREADY AHVEAND YOU ARE GRATEFUL FOR. AND TI MIGHT BE THAT YOU HAVE EYES TO READ THIS. IT MIGHT BE THE CLOTHES YOU HAVE. YES, YOU MIGHT PREFER SOMETHING ELSE AND YOU MIGHT GET SOMETHING ELSE PRETTY SOON, IF YOU START FEELING GRATEFUL FOR WHAT YOU HAVE.
Many people who order their lives rightly in all other ways are kept in poverty by their lack of gratitude.
It is impossible to bring more into your life if you are feeling ungrateful about what you have. Why? Because the thoughts and feelings emit as you feel ungrateful are negative emotions. Whether it is jealousy, resentment, dissatisfaction, or feelings of " not enough" those feelings cannot bring you what you want. They can only return you more of what you do not want, Those negative feelings are blocking your won good coming to you. Be grateful fro what you have right now. As you begin to think about all the things in your life you are grateful for, you will be amazed at the never ending thoughts that come back to you of more things to be grateful for. You have to make a start, and then the law of attraction will receive those grateful thoughts, and give you more just like them. You will have locked into the frequency of gratitude and all good things will be yours.
The daily practice of gratitude is one of the conduits by which your health and wealth will come to you.
A lot of people feel stuck or imprisoned or confined by their current circumstances. Whatever your circumstances right now, that is only your current reality, and current reality will begin to change as a result of beginning to use The Secret.
Your current reality or your current life is a result of the thoughts you have been thinking. All of that will totally change as you begin to change your thoughts and your feelings.
When you want to change your circumstances, you must first change your thinking. Every time you look inside your mal expecting to see a bill, guess what-it will be there. each day you go out dreading the bill. You are never expecting great. You are thinking debt and you are expecting debt. So debt must show up so you won't think you are crazy. And every day you confirm your thought: Is debt gong to be there? yes, debt is there. Is debt going to be there? yes, debt is there. Because law of attraction is always obedient to your thoughts. Do yourself a favor, expect a check.
Desire connects you with the thing desired and expectation draws it into your life. Expect things you want, and do not expect things you do not want.
Most people look at their current state of affairs and they say" This is who I am". That is not you are. That is who you were. Let us say for instance that you don't have enough money in your bank account, or you do not have the relationship that you want, or your health and fitness are not up to par. That is not who you are, that is the residual outcome of your past thoughts and actions. So we are constantly living in this residual, is you will, of the thoughts and actions we have taken in the past. When you look at your current state of affairs and define yourself, then you doom yourself to have nothing more than the same in future.
ALL WE ARE IS A RESULT OF WHAT WE HAVE THOUGHT.
I would like to share a process with you that is amazing-" The pruning shears of revision" This process has had a profound effect on many people. This process recommends at the end of each day, before you sleep, think of vent of the day. If any events or moments did not go the way you want, replay them the way it will excite you. As you recreate those events in your mind, you are cleaning up the frequency and creating a new signal for tomorrow. You have intentionally created new pictures for tomorrow. It is never too late to change these pictures.
Like Aladdin's genie, the law of attraction grants our every command.
The creative process helps you create what you want in three simple steps, ask, believe, receive.
Asking the Universe for what you want is your opportunity to get clear about what you want. As you get clear in your mind, you have asked.
Believing involves acting, speaking, and thinking as though you have already received what you have asked for. When you emit the frequency of having received it, the law of attraction moves people events, and circumstances for you to receive.
Receiving involves feeling the way you will feel once your desire has manifested. Feeling good now puts you on the frequency of what you want.
You lose weight, do not focus on " losing weight". Instead, focus on your perfect weight. feel the feelings of your perfect weight and you will summon it to you.
It takes no time for the universe to manifest what you want. It is as easy to manifest one dollar as it is to manifest one million dollars.
Starting with something small, like a cup of coffee of parking spaces, is an easy way to experience the law of attraction in action. Powerfully intend to attract something small. As you experience the power you have to attract, you will move on to creating much bigger things.
Create your day in advance by thinking the way you want it to go, and you will create your life intentionally.
You can use the law of attraction to create your whole life in advance, right down to the next thing you are doing today.
When you say to yourself," I am going to have a pleasant visit or a pleasant journey", you are literally sending elements and forces ahead of your body that will arrange things to make your visit or journey pleasant. When before the visit or the journey or shopping trip you are in a bad humor or fearful or apprehensive of something unpleasant, you are sending unseen agencies ahead of you which will make some kind of unpleasantness. Our thoughts, or in other words, our state of mind, is ever " fixing up" things good or bad in advance.
If you are hurrying or rushing, know that those thoughts are actions are based in fear and you are fixing up bad things ahead for you. As you continue to rush, you will attract one bad thing after another into your path. In addition tot hat, the law of attraction is FIXING UP more future circumstances that will cause you to rush and hurry. Take a few moments and shift yourself, if you don't want to summon bad things on you.
Many people chase time. They always complain they do not have enough time. Well, if you are chasing your tail with thoughts of not having enough time, from now on declare emphatically," I have more than enough time," and change your life. Turn every situation into a positive one. Make it a daily habit to determine every event in your life in advance, through your thoughts. Set the universal forces ahead of you in every thing you do and every where you go, by thinking the way you want it to go in advance.Then you are creating your life intentionally
Another thing people wonder about is " how long will it take to manifest the car, the relationship, the money?" I don't have any rule book that says it is going to take thirty minutes or three days or thirty days. It is more a matter is you being in alignment with the universe itself.
Time is an illusion. It takes no time for the universe to manifest what you want. Any time delay you experience is due to your delay in getting to the place of believing, knowing, and feeling that you already have it. It is you getting yourself on the frequency of what you want. When you are on that frequency, then what you want will appear.
Size is nothing to the universe. It is no more difficult to attract, on a scientific level, something that we consider huge to something we consider small.
The universe does everything with zero effort. The grass does not strain to grow. It is effortless. It is just this great design.
It is all about what is going on in your mind. It is about what we pt in place saying," this is big, it is going to take some time." And " This is small. I will give it an hour" Those are our rules that we define. There are no rules according to the universe. You provide the feelings of having it now. It will respond, what ever it is.
There is no time for the universe and there is no size for universe. It is as easy to manifest one dollar as it is to manifest one million dollars. It is same process. And the only reason why one may come faster and the other may take longer is because you thought million dollars was a lot of money and that one dollar was easy.
Some people have an easier time with little things, and so we sometimes say start with some thing small, like a cup of coffee. Make it your intention to attract a cup of coffee today.
Hold an image of talking to an old friend that you have not seen for a long time. Somehow or another somebody is going to start talking to you about that person. That person is going to phone you or you will get a letter from her.
Let me share a story what a young man did. He visualized a feather with distinct marks. He closed his eyes and believed that he will see it. Couple of days later he saw the same feather with he same unique marks on the entrance to a New York city building.
This is law of attraction at its glory. He realized his amazing ability and power to attract something to himself through the power of mind.So start with smaller things and move on to attracting bigger things.
Now you might understand when people say " I am lucky,, I win things all the time" They expect and believe and receive things. So you also expect great things, and as you do, you will create your life in advance.
Let us look at the creative process for those who feel they are over weight and who want to lose weight.
The first thing to know is that you focus on losing weight, you will attract back having to lose more weight, so get" having to lose weight" out of your mind. It is the very reason why diets do not work. Because you are focused on losing weight. you must attract back continually having to lose weight.
The second thing to know is that the condition of being over weight was created through your thought to it. To put it in the ,most basic terms, if someone is overweight, it came from thinking " fat thoughts". A person cannot think " thin thoughts" and be fat. It completely defies the law of attraction.
Whether people have a thyroid or a slow metabolism, it is their thinking of FAT THOUGHTS.
Instead concentrate on perfect weight,or comfortable weight. Think I can eat like a horse and still be thin. Fat thoughts are what are causing weight gain. Feeling good is what is important. No one else's opinion counts. It is what you feel good about you that matters.
STEP 1 ASK get clear on what weight you feel is perfect and send a command to the universe.
Step2 BELIEVE You must believe you will receive and the perfect weight is already yours. You must shop for clothes of your perfect weight and not your current weight. Put pictures of how you want to look like or your photos were when you were of perfect weight.. Have faith and focus it is yours.
Admire and praise your body. Love your body.
Step3 RECEIVE
You must feel good. You must feel good about you. This is important because you cannot get to your perfect weight,if you feel bad about yourself, and your body. You must think of perfect thoughts. perfect body.
When eating do not see a TV or read a book. Just enjoy every morsel, every bite, every juice.
It will absorb into your body giving you good feelings and perfect feelings to a perfect body.
The genie will respond and say " Your wish is my command"
It could be you wake up and it is just there. It is manifested. Or, you might get some inspired idea of some action to take. You certainly should not be saying," Well I could do it this way, but man, I would hate that." You are not on the right track if that is the case. Action will sometimes be requires, but if you are really doing it in the line with what the universe is trying to bring to you, it is going to feel joyous. You are going to feel so alive. Time will just stop. You could do it all day.
Action is a word that can imply " work" to some people, but inspired action will not feel like work at all. The difference between inspired action and action is this: inspired action is when you are acting to receive. If you are in action to try and make it happen, you have slipped backward. Inspired action is effortless, and it feels wonderful because you are on the frequency of receiving. Imagine life as a fast moving river. When you are acting to make something happen it will feel as if you are going against the current of the river. It will feel hard and like a struggle. when you are acting to receive from the universe, you will feel as if you are flowing with the current of the river. It will feel effortless. That is the feeling of inspired action, and being in the flow of the universe and life.
Universe likes SPEED. Do not delay. Do not second guess. Do not doubt. When the opportunity is there, when the impulse is there, when the intuitive nudge from within is there, ACT. That is your job. And that is all you have to do. Trust your instincts. It is the universe inspiring you. It is the universe communicating with you on the receiving frequency. If you have an intuitive or instinctive feeling, follow it. and You will find that the universe is magnetically moving you to receive what you have asked for.
YOU WILL ATTRACT EVERYTHING YOU REQUIRE. IF IT IS MONEY YOU NEED YOU WILL ATTRACT IT. IF IT IS PEOPLE YOU NEED, YOU WILL ATTRACT IT. IF IT IS A CERTAIN BOOK YOU NEED, YOU WILL ATTRACT IT. YOU HAVE TO PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT YOU ARE ATTRACTED TO, BECAUSE AS YOU HOLD IMAGES OF WHAT YOU WANT, YOU ARE GOING TO BE ATTRACTED TO THINGS AND THEY ARE GOING TO BE ATTRACTED TO YOU. BUT IT IS LITERALLY MOVES INTO PHYSICAL REALITY WITH AND THROUGH YOU. AND IT DOES BY THE LAW.
Remember you are the magnet.
You can start with nothing, and out of nothing and out of no way, and a way will be made.
All you require is you and your ability to think things into being. Everything that has been invented and created throughout the history of humankind began with one thought. From that one thought a way was made, and it manifested from the invisible into the visible.
THINK OF A CAR DRIVING THROUGH THE NIGHT. THE HEADLIGHTS ONLY GO 100 TO 200 FEET FORWARD. AND YOU CAN MAKE IT ALL THE WAY FROM CALIFORNIA TO NEW YORK DRIVING THROUGH THE DARK, BECAUSE ALL YOU HAVE TO SEE IS THE NEXT 200 FEET. AND THAT IS HOW LIFE TENDS TO UNFOLD BEFORE US. IF WE JUST TRUST THAT THE NEXT 200 FEEL WILL UNFOLD AFTER THAT, AND THE NEXT 200 FEET WILL UNFOLD AFTER THAT, YOUR LIFE WILL KEEP UNFOLDING.AND IT WILL EVENTUALLY GET YOU TO THE DESTINATION OF WHATEVER IT IS YOU TRULY WANT, BECAUSE YOU WANT IT.
"TAKE THE FIRST STEP IN FAITH. YOU DON;T HAVE TO SEE THE WHOLE STAIRCASE. JUST TAKE THE FIRST STEP." Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
STEP THREE AND THE FINAL STEP IN THE PROCESS IS TO RECEIVE. BEGIN TO FEEL WONDERFUL ABOUT IT. FEEL THE WAY YOU WILL FEEL ONCE IT ARRIVES. FEEL IT NOW. AND IN THE PROCESS IT IS IMPORTANT TO FEEL GOOD, TO BE HAPPY, BECAUSE WHEN YOU ARE FEELING GOOD, YOU ARE PUTTING YOURSELF IN THE FREQUENCY OF WHAT YOU WANT.
THIS IS A FEELING UNIVERSE. IF YOU JUST INTELLECTUALLY BELIEVE SOMETHING, BUT YOU HAVE NO CORRESPONDING FEELING UNDERNEATH THAT, YOU DON'T NECESSARILY HAVE ENOUGH POWER TO MANIFEST WHAT YOU WANT IN YOUR LIFE. YOU HAVE TO FEEL IT.
Ask once, believe you have received, and all you have to do to receive is feel good. When you are feeling good, you are on the frequency of receiving. You are on the frequency of all good things coming to you, and you will receive what you have asked for. You would not ask anything unless it was to make you feel good in the receiving of it, would you? so get yourself on the feel good frequency, and you will receive.
A fast way to get yourself on that frequency is to say, " I am receiving now. I am receiving all the good in my life, NOW. I am receiving( fill in your desire) now." And FEEL it. FEEL as though you have received.
When you turn that fantasy into a fact, you are in the position to build bigger and bigger fantasies. And that is the creative process.
"Whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive" Matthew 21:22
"What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them" Mark 11:24
The law of attraction, the study and practice of attraction is just figuring out what will help you generate the feelings of having it now. Go test drive that car. Go shop for that home. Get in the house. Do whatever you have to do to generate the feelings of having it now, and remember them. Whatever you can do to achieve that will help you to literally attract it.
Step two is to believe. Believe that it is already yours. Have what I love to call unwavering faith. Believing in the unseen. You must believe that you have received. You must know that what you want is yours the moment you ask. If you had placed an order from the catalogue, You would relax, know you are gong to receive what you ordered, and get on with your life.
SEE THE THINGS THAT YOU WANT AS ALREADY YOURS. KNOW THAT THEY WILL COME TO YOU AT NEED. THEN LET THEM COME. DON'T FRET, AND WORRY ABOUT THEM. DON'T THINK ABOUT YOUR LACK OF THEM. THINK OF THEM AS YOURS, AS BELONGING TO YOU, AS ALREADY IN YOUR POSSESSION.
In the moment you ask, and believe and know You already have it in the unseen, the entire universe shifts to bring it into the seen. You must act, speak, and think, as though you are receiving it NOW. Why? the universe is a mirror, and the law of attraction is mirroring back to you, your dominant thoughts. So, does it not make sense that you have to see yourself receiving it? If your thoughts contain noticing you do not have it yet, you will continue to attract not having it yet. You must believe you already have it. You must believe you already received it. You have to emit the feeling frequency of having it, to bring those pictures back as your life. When you do that, the law of attraction will powerfully move all circumstances, people, and events for you to receive.
when you book a vacation, order a brand new car, you know those things are yours. You would not go and book another vacation or buy another new car at the same time. If you won a lottery or received inheritance, even before you physically had the money, you know it is yours. That is the feeling of believing they are yours. When you do that, the law of attraction will powerfully move all the circumstances, people, events for you to receive.
How do you get yourself to believe? Start make believing. Be a child. Act as if you have it already. As you make-believe, you will begin to believe you have received. The genie is responding to your predominant thoughts all the time, not just the moment you ask. That is why you need undying faith. Let the magic begin.
The universe will start to rearrange itself to make it happen for you.
Most of us have never allowed ourselves to want what we truly want, because we can't see how it is going to manifest. If you do a little research, it is going to become evident to you that anyone that ever accomplished anything, did not know how they were going to do it. They only knew they were going to do it.
You don't need to know how it is going to come about. You don;t need to know how the universe will rearrange itself.
HOW it will happen, HOW the universe will bring it to you, is not your concern or job. Allow the universe to do it for you. When you are trying to work out HOW it will happen, you are emitting a frequency that contains a lack of faith-that you don't believe you have it already. You think YOU have to do it, and you do not believe the universe will do it FOR you. The HOW is not your part in the creative process.
YOU DON'T KNOW HOW, IT WILL BE SHOWN TO YOU. YOU WILL ATTRACT THE WAY.
MOST OF THE TIME, WHEN WE DON'T SEE THE THINGS THAT WE HAVE REQUESTED, WE GET FRUSTRATED. WE GET DISAPPOINTED. AND WE BEGIING TO BECOME DOUBTFUL. THE DOUBT DRINGS ABOUT A FEELING OF DISAPPOINTMENT. TAKE THAT DOUBT AND SHIFT IT. REPLACE IT WITH UNWAVERING FAITH. " I KNOW THAT IT IS ON ITS WAY"
The Creative process used in the Secret, is an easy guideline for you to create what you want in three simple steps. STEP 1: ASK The first step is to ask. Make a command to the universe. Let the universe know what you want. The universe responds to your thoughts.
What do you really want? sit down and write it out on a piece of paper. Write it in present tense. You might begin by writing," I am so happy and grateful now that..." and then explain how you want your life to be, in every area.
You get to choose what you want, but you must get clear about what you want. This is your work. If you are not clear, then the law of attraction cannot bring you what you want. You will be sending out a mixed frequency and you can only attract mixed results. for the first time in your life perhaps, work out what is you really want. Now that you know you can have, be, or do anything, and there are no limits, what do you want?
Asking is the first step in the creative process, so make it a habit to ask. If you have to make a choice and you don't know which way to go, ask! You should never be stumped on anything in your life. Just ASK!
This is really fun. It's like having the universe as your catalogue. You flip through it and say," I would like to have this experience and I'd like to have that product and I'd like to have a person like that." It is you placing your order with the Universe. It is really that easy.
You do not have to ask over and over again. Just ask once. It is exactly like placing an order from catalogue. You only ever order something once. You don't place an order and then doubt the order has been received and so place the order again, and then again. You order once. It is the same with the creative process. Step one is simply your step to get clear about what you want. As you get clear in your mind, You have asked.
