Commanding The Power Of Our Thoughts

Filed under Mind Power

I have been going through a huge mind-shift in the last couple of months. I don’t knot if it is since the last full moon in March 2008, where a lot of spontaneous healing took place regarding inner child work, if it has to do with the Ph D in metaphysics that I am currently studying, or if it perhaps has to do with having won my local speech contest as part of my dream of becoming a motivational speaker… but the truth is that my mind has shifted from a place where self-doubt would eat away at my courage to do new things, to a place where I can command my thoughts and not pay attention to that debilitating fear whenever I am faced with a new challenge.

The other day my husband came home saying that they were going to rise petrol prices, yet again, and in quite a considerable amount. He then proceeded to go on to say how scientists now know that it is too late to avoid the melt down of the Poles, that all that can be done is to slow it down, that the sea levels will rise and that resources of the Earth will be all but run out within the next 50 years.

I heard him. I know the story, We all know the story.

Thank God we have a little car and at the moment it is not that expensive to fill it up. Yes, we do try to do our best to conserve energy. Yes, we are conscious of recycling, organic food, not wasting resources (especially water), and have only one child as our contribution to this overpopulated world.

If I had been my old self, automatically a feeling of fear and despair would have taken me over and it would have taken me quite a while to overcome it. I would maybe have even shed a few tears and would have had to sit down for a while in order to put myself together emotionally, or have a bath, or go for a walk, or meditate. My mind would have run far away into my daughter’s future and I would have felt so sad for what she might have to endure…

But my new mindset, newly-achieved thought control attitude, kicked in straight away and I told him:
“Yes, this is real. But I believe that we live in a holographic world and that really what you believe comes true. All you will ever have is the power of your thoughts to command in order to create the reality you want to experience. Start training your mind so that all what you have just mentioned may never have to be experienced by us”.

For the first time he stayed quiet. He did hear me and nodded. In the past, his law-and-finance mindset would simply look at the proof and nothing I could say would make him shift this perspective. However, as I said, there has been a lot of inner child healing since the last March full moon and he was ready, this time, to come along to the light and become light himself.

And so when I won the local speech contest in my Toastmasters club, I immediately visualized representing my club in the area contest. Usually, in the past, I would fear the event and would hope and wish to win this second series, especially because I am really focused on becoming a motivational speaker and this could be a great opportunity. Yet, this time, I turned my thinking around and said out loud “I am a winner”; that no matter whatever I do, I am right on track towards my life missions, whether it looks as winning or loosing, success or failure. That, at some level, I have attracted the necessary lesson for my growth.

That my words carry the intention of transmuting negativity into positive energy, therefore, whenever I have an opportunity to speak in public, I win. Dr Wayne W. Dyer says in The Power of Intention that “one individual who lives and vibrates to the energy of optimism and a willingness to be non-judgmental of others will counterbalance the negativity of 90,000 individuals who calibrate at the lower weakening levels”. So, in my mind, I am doing a great service beyond the material and social standards of success. Beyond fame and name, I am spiritually successful by counterbalancing or canceling out the energy of so many individuals who live in fear of scarcity and who believe that “you must take before someone else takes from you”. Just the mentality that is raiding the earth from its resources!?

Two days ago I received a call, out of the blue, from a magazine editor who wanted to offer me a job as a freelance writer and sub-editor. I was over the moon! It was my dream job.
But in the past I had written for this magazine and I had been warned this individual was not very trust-worthy. As it was, although originally the idea was that there were tight deadline requirements, they needed me desperately and I should start working straight away, a few days passed by and I wasn’t contacted about when and where to start such job.

In the past, I would have been a bundle of nerves. I would have despaired and would have been very angry at being let down or this individual not being very professional, or many other like judgments. However this time, I stated to the Universe that I am not that desperate for anything (that’s to say, I don’t have a need for this job, even if it is my dream job, a very powerful place to be!).

In the past, I would have been thinking about it all the time: what if scenarios, right and wrong discussions, the Universe is not being fair on me again self-pity statements, etc. We all do it! Very disempowering thoughts. However, this time, I stated to the Universe that I would not GIVE IT A SECOND THOUGHT! Literally! Since my energy is mine to give or not to give.

Firstly, I turned my old thinking on its head and I stated From now on, I only work with people with integrity.
Secondly, I thought that the Universe was giving me the present of letting me know that my writing is ready for the world, that somebody was prepared to pay me for my services as a writer and sub-editor, therefore I could see myself at this level.

Thirdly, I knew that if this opportunity had been aborted, it meant that at some level it was not in my best interest for spiritual growth, so I told myself that my guides had blocked it from reaching me and that something better was on its way to me. A lesson in acceptance of what it is, as it is. And a lesson in self-acceptance: I stated to myself that I will accept my creation, exactly as it is, even when I don’t understand it or when it doesn’t seem to be a positive one.

And so, one can see, that we are free to choose our thoughts and that our attitude shapes our destiny.

I command the energy of my thoughts is a statement or affirmation that I currently use and will continue to do so until my whole psychic has shifted into this new level of personal power and spiritual understanding. Maybe not very comforting for the ego… but truly very liberating!

Use the Power of Intention to Imagine Your Day

When you jump into your day unconsciously, most of your energy is used reacting to what happens “to you.” This constant reacting is draining and can soon lead to burnout. On the other hand, when you set an intention at the beginning of each day, you are consciously focusing your thoughts towards a desired direction….intentionally. By setting your intention daily you take action that can prove to be a powerful tool in creating a day that makes you feel good about your life, your self-esteem, your interactions with others, your sales etc.

As soon as you wake up, maybe when the alarm goes off but you’re not quite awake, or maybe when you are in the shower, begin to think about your day ahead. Here are some questions that can be helpful:
How will your energy be today?
What’s your mood?
How are you in your body?
What are your food choices?

Imagine your energy flowing evenly and balanced throughout the day. You feel good in your body and clothes. When you’re hungry you choose food that recharges and refreshes you. Imagine your commute to work as a cool, easy ride with the perfect flow of traffic, great music on the radio and your arrival on time.

What appointments are on your calendar?
What are your expectations of the day?
What’s on you schedule?
If you are in sales, how are your sales flowing today?
How will your important meeting flow?

You can set your intention every day, and throughout the day. If you are not able to visualize try journaling. If you can’t journal, speak your intentions out loud. Use the power of intention to imagine your day!

Money and the Law of Attraction

Do you want more of what life has to offer, including greater wealth? Life is the greatest wealth so let’s start from the premise that you’re already wealthy (just not monetarily!).

Let’s see how we can use the law of attraction, marry it to the power of intention, and start attracting more of the things we believe make up a life full in rich experiences and years worth living.

Surely I’m not the culprits holding the self back from experiencing the good life, am I? Well, maybe. Dr. Robert Schuller says, “If it’s to be it’s up to me!” And in that light the poet William Thackery observed that “The world is a looking glass, and gives back to every man [and woman] the reflection of his [or her] own thought.”

Whoops! Could it be the power to attract the good things of life we want begins with US?” Hmmmm. There are a a lot of people and circumstances out there opposing what I want,” we tell ourselves. Let’s see if, to quote Robert Collier, “The quality of our thought [power of intention] is the measure of our power?”

“We human beings consider ourselves to be made of up ‘solid’ matter. Actually, the physical body is the end product…of the subtle information fields, which mold our physical body as well as all physical matter.” — Itzhak Bentov

Scientists and spiritual teachers are reading from the same page when they tell us the source of everything is vibration.

Like a set of guitar strings, you are vibrating. The rates of movement of “your personal strings” intimately affect your body/mind/spirit.

So, how can you actively participate in tuning the very instrument of your life?

How can you communicate to the “invisible fingers” – the forces — which ceaselessly “strum” your existence into being?

Author Frederic Wiedemann points out that your Core Vibration, “is the sum total of your mood, emotion, thought, desire, and belief right now.” Wiedemann refers to this sum total as your “Dominant Mood.”

Your dominant mood constantly emanates from you to be interpreted by the Universe, God, Intelligence, and then is returned to you in the forms of the world you see and experience.

A single molecule of doubt affects every aspect of your life in ways beyond ordinary perceptions and expectations.

Negative thoughts, including expectations of failure, lower your Core Vibration. Each memory forms additional threads (or energetic strings) which contribute to increasing feedback loops of sameness (operating from the same low core vibrations).

Unless you can somehow intervene and alter the cascade of causes, the best predictor of your future can be found in your past.

“If no useful seeds are put into it (the mind), then an abundance of useless weed seeds will fall therein, and will continue to produce their kind.”—James Allen

Some folks take up permanent residence in a psychological victim-neighborhood and are convinced they have little power over life — robotically hitting the buttons B-4 on the juke box in a corner bar, to hear, once again, their personal “somebody done somebody wrong song.”

Listen carefully and notice: the “wrong song” plays, louder and more painfully each time. The very act of re-listening to those themes diminishes the Core Vibration.

Author David Hawkins indicates that only about fifteen percent of the world’s population is above the critical consciousness level (which can be translated into Core Vibration) which supports, rather than diminishes, life and life energy.

“Thoughts are living breathing energies. They have a life of their own and an electromagnetic charge. At first birth they are singular in nature, yet very magnetic. They seek like vibrations as they travel encircling you throughout the day,” – Gillian MacBeth-Louthan

The very good news is that you can take charge of the instrument of your life and communicate effectively with the “inner strings.” Your conscious mind and the powerful sub-conscious energies, pulling together, can create miracles.

The great early 20th Century healer Dr. Emile Coue’ discovered that when the emotions and the intellect are in agreement, a synergistic effect - or better yet, an amplification effect - takes place for the good.

When you operate on the positive side of life and are congruent in what you think, say, do and create, you experience the harmony – the resonance of a higher vibration.

“I came to understand that my consciousness was a technology and by choosing an idea or belief, I was selecting the parameters of my universe of possibilities.”— Joan McKenna

When you are consciously doing the things you love, feeling supported by life and are actively contributing your gifts to others, your Core Vibration naturally rises.

You are in creative flow.

You experience timelessness and a whole new level of potentials.

Your authentic self literally lights up inner (extra) dimensions, which, as we know scientifically, expand throughout the pulsating Universe.

“I cannot believe that the inscrutable universe turns on an axis of suffering; surely the strange beauty of the world must somewhere rest on pure joy.” — Louise Bogan

Will you permit yourself now to harness the immense power of a raised Core Vibration toward experiencing greater health and happiness?

“Once your dominant vibration is in harmony with what you seek, the latter must literally be ‘attracted’ to you without excessive striving!..In a very real sense, you have to become what you seek on the inside before you can ever have it in physical reality.”– Asoka Selvarajah

The time is now to tell yourself, “Yes!”

“…to let new forces play upon our unused chords, and draw from us a better music.” — Will Durant
