Law of Attractions Public Enemy Number 1

In the current climate we are under constant bombardment from fear based media.  We see, hear and read daily about war, financial cut-backs, failing health, violence, not to mention the trash mags ripping people to shreds over their looks, behaviour or fashion choices.  When did that become entertainment???  Ahhh don’t get me started.  

With this daily pile of media sewage dished up to us is it any wonder that it doesn’t take much for our internal focus to change from one of abundance to one of lack.  Problem is to truly create we need to be operating from a place of love and leave fear behind.  That which is created through fear will never allay feelings of lack, which ultimately creates more fear.

We live in an abundant Universe, there is enough for everyone all we have to do is ask and it is ours.  As we have yet to learn instant manifestation then this abundance can take time to appear physically, which in a fear based world is no bad thing.  Imagine if every negative thought and/or image you had manifested instantly - scary doesn’t even begin to cover it.   There’s a saying that I use a lot, “Nature abhors a vacuum” - if you are not deliberately filling your reality with positivity it will get filled with something, and fear is the predominant filler of choice for the masses.

There are times when I myself am afraid to ask for what I want.  Having grown up with a mother who didn’t even have a glass, let alone a half empty one, discussing your dreams and asking for what you wanted, in any way, just caused major upset and opened the door to the inevitable diatribe about the harshness of life, the limitations of love, money and happiness.  This, of course, was all to ‘save me’ from the disappointment of seeing any overly high life expectations crushed on the reality of the world, so best learn not to ask in the first place.

So here I am many years later still finding myself hesitating at times when it comes to putting my Universal Abundance Request Form in for processing, despite so many times seeing it deliver.   So why am I still not reporting back to all and sundry about how much my cup permanently runneth over?

And here we find ourselves back at the beginning…fear.  On average my cup is full-ish, brimming over on a good day, and showing signs of evaporation on others.  I’m well rehearsed now in being able to identify the cause of the tide lines when they appear, they are the times when I am allowing fear in to my life, when I am taking life far too seriously.  May be it was because I allowed myself to dwell on a newspaper headline that I didn’t stop myself from reading, overhearing a news report before I could get to the off button, or stuck with a doom and gloom merchant whose drug of choice is listing all that is rotten in their life or the world. These things I have cut from my life but every now and again they sneak up and find me and if I’m not prepared my mind starts to dwell on what might be, it’s then the negative questions randomly start popping up in my mind.

“What if the recession gets worse instead of better?”

“What if it all gets worse out there?”

“What’s the point in me even starting to follow my dreams with all this going on?” blah blah blah

It’s called the What If game and depending on how it’s played as to how rotten you can make yourself feel.  Any time you are aware that you are in a state of fear, I’ll wager you’ve played your own version of the What If game.

Once you’ve identified that your perspective is being based on fear then it becomes about consciously choosing to focus back on the positive.  The negative will always be there but what a waste of this wonderful life, a brain that outstrips the worlds most powerful computers and a body fitted with all the senses required to experience the joys of life to the max.   It’s about being focused on a desire and the underlying emotion behind that focus.   All emotions are driven by one of two base emotions Fear or Love.  We know how life turns out when lived in fear, just look around you.

Love creates, fear immobilises/destroys. 

For our lives to stand a chance of becoming something we must choose love to navigate through our life experiences.  There are things that we can do to keep us on that track that is akin to planning a road trip.

Know Your Destination

Invest time & create your life’s dream, the experiences you wish to have, the feelings you wish to feel.  Make it as big, colourful and as bold as you possibly can.  This is no time to hold back, it has to get you excited every time you think about it.  It has to fill you with feel good feelings, when you see yourself living it.  This can take time if you’re not used to doing it. I know it sounds daft, but it takes practise to allow ourselves to let go and feel that good over our dreams.

When On The Road

Focus is what this is about.  Keep your eye on the destination: Decide that you are going to go for it as far as your dreams are concerned, really what’s the alternative?  Live in fear, dream mediocre dreams if you even bother to have dreams at all?…I think not.

Commit to visiting your dream as often as is possible (Consult the Map) There are key times in which you need to do this.  The most important one is to have it handy for the moments that you realise you are operating from fear and pull it up in your mind as a counter measure.  There are many of the early advocates of positive thinking that suggest that first thing in the morning as you wake up and last thing at night as you are drifting off to sleep are when the mind is at its most powerful creatively.

Stay alert to when you are in fear mode, sometimes it’s insidious and we don’t even realise we’re feeling it.  As soon as you become conscious that you are in negativity go back and revisit your dream.  Your vision may not come to mind straight away but be persistent in viewing it and letting those good feelings flood your body.  Remember fear is only a state of mind.  Start taking charge and you decide the state.

If you get lost/sidetracked, keep your destination in mind and after a bathroom break and refreshments get back on the road no matter how long you stopped for.

There is a route that will get you to your destination.  This may be the Road Less Travelled, but rest assured there are others that have gone before you who will attest to the fact that if you keep at it you WILL absolutely get there.  Be open-minded to new routes if your planned one becomes too full of obstacles, but never give up on getting there.

Bon Voyage

 

 

More Positive Thought Required Please

We (that being Tim & I) are out on our daily walk with Marv. 

Marv is actually Martha but thanks to a 3 year olds inability to say Martha, we ended up with Marva and now abbreviated to Marv, it's what we do in our family, a quirk, a foible however you see it, but rarely does anyone retain the original name they started out with.  When on a walk Marve is really well behaved, she's 100% focused on chasing after and retrieving her ball.  She's a joy to take out, the only area that I would say is lacking is the minimal amount of time spent on a lead, where she pulls.  She's far better behaved off the lead in walking to heel, it's almost like she resents being harnessed and needs to make a point that this is a completely unnecessary evil in what is otherwise a great time for her.

 

That said between the park and the path to the river we have to negotiate a vey busy main road, with lorries, buses and white van man hurtling along.  This is the one point in the walk that we put Marv on the lead for her safety and for our peace of mind.  Today though was different, for some reason we found ourselves walking along the narrow pavement next to said busy road with Marv walking perfectly at heel WITHOUT the lead.  I'm following up the rear observing and mentally commentating on how well she's behaving when for no apparent reason, bham out of the blue, my mind is making pictures of Marv suddenly running across the busy road.  A picture where I see her distracted by something on the other side of the road which leads her to just belt across.  I am now feeling fear throughout my body as you can imagine, my mental pictures are bad enough, but I'm also now feeling my future guilt when she's maimed or dead. I can hear me berating myself for not having reacted to what I was feeling and get Tim to put her lead on.  As it turned out he was making similar pictures in that moment and he'd leashed her before I could get the words out.

 

Now, I 'talk' with someone, I don't know who or what it is and I choose not to declare it to be something specific as I truly don't know what or where it comes from.  What I do know is that I trust what it has to say, partly because it makes absolute sense once I have the answer, and secondly because the answers and actions that I may need to take are not always the easiest ones that I would like, but they are always the truthful evaluation of the situation.   I say potential as I know that I always have a choice as to whether I act on what I have learnt.  I am informed but never pressured, I am left alone with my thoughts and of course my freewill. 

 

I have conversations with this person/entity/my higher self/intuition, (call it what you will).  I say conversations, it usually goes along the lines of I ponder something, I then ask a question about what, why, where or when and I then receive what I refer to as a 'download' of information pertaining to the question/pondering that I've just had.  My answer/explanation comes 'down' all in one go and affects more than one sense; I am seeing it, hearing and feeling it all together as one experience. It feels like I imagine Neo in the Matrix must feel, when information is uploaded to his mind as he plugs back in to the Matrix again.   He learns all manor of things by having the relevant software programmes uploaded to his mind which enable him to know, mentally and physically the newly installed experience.  It's the same thing, this is just knowledge about something rather than a new ability, for now...no special powers have as of yet been download.

 

I digress.  This mornings information was about that which we attract in to our lives.  I am always interested in how to make things in our lives better, to live as our higher selves and experience the potential joy that is available to all should we choose it.  

 

NB: By Our, I am asking for everyone that is on a quest for the knowledge that I truly believe is the next step in Our evolution.  An evolution that will see Us changing through our spiritual connection to ourselves, each other and our environment.

 

I wondered why I'd feared Martha's potential demise when there didn't appear to be any real reason to think that way, she'd shown no signs of running off.  I then experienced the following:

 

"As you live now in this world, in this dimension, it is just as well that you are incapable of instant manifestation in your lives as you have yet to master your thoughts and emotions.  You are quick to let them run away with you and are quick to view a negative potential outcome before you view a positive one.  It is through your emotions that you create your lives. Fear is a powerful emotion as is it's opposite; Love.   Humanity has mastered feeling varying degrees of fear on a sliding scale, but the scale rarely moves back past the zero point, at best it musters up feelings of nice, which are not feelings of creation, for that you need love, love without doubt, a knowing and deliberate love."  

 

When we do apply love to our visions then things start to happen, and there are times that we have all done that, but in the world that we inhabit where fear is such a strong and powerful emotion, we are not encouraged to express the same level of love, in fact apart from the acknowledgement of love in regard to relationships and religion, love is not acknowledged of being of any great importance at all.  Little wonder we are not well practised in the art of creating feelings in order for them to be reflected in a physical manifestation.

 

In theory, based on studies of the Quantum Universe, we could be and should be capable of instant manifestation through our thoughts coupled with a powerful emotion. Luckily, for us, we are unable to do that, as very few are in complete control of the random thoughts of the mind.  I for one am relieved, as I understand this concept, yet still have been unable to quieten and control my mind at all times.  This morning being a classic example; where I may have found myself with one very flat dog.  Thanks to the time lag of instant manifestation our nightmares don't come to fruition either, not without considerable effort.  

 

There  are  those that will tell you that they always have bad luck and that if something awful is going to happen, it happens to them and they are right.  If you press them further they will tell you about their fears, the pictures that they make and the things the accompanying internal dialogue tells them could go wrong.  It is so deeply rooted in their belief system, it does, they get what they came for, without realising that they are the creators of these experiences.  

 

We have to learn to control our thoughts and keep them guided at all times towards that which we wish to create and experience in our lives, that, coupled with the strength of the emotion of love, which is what breathes life in to our desires.  It takes practise but that is part of the life lesson.  We have to work in creating that which we desire, but it is in that work, that once our creation has manifested, we feel so good about it and ourselves, that it will have been worth the effort that was placed in to it, a feeling that we would be denied should it just be handed to us on a plate. A feeling of our own power to create and design our lives as we would wish them to be, instead of being buffeted around on the whim of others desires for their lives, which is where most of us find ourselves at this moment in time.  

 

Next time Marv will go across the road with a vision of her being safe and at heel, accompanied by a big dollop of love whilst viewing the image.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Your Material Illusion

When we look at the Earth objectively, as an entity separate to us, it has been here doing it’s thing for billions of years.  Life forms have come and gone yet it remains constantly evolving despite life's comings and goings. 

 

We are here as a species for a fraction of the time the Earth has existed and we have no idea how long our species has on this planet.  What is guaranteed is that all of our puffed up ideas about our intelligence and greatness count for nothing during the blink of an eye that we’ve been here both individually and even as a species.  

 

Generations come and go and this ridiculous obsession with who and what we are, what we possess and leave when we die counts for nothing.  These are merely thoughts and perceptions rooted in how we would like to be seen as significant by others.  The only hope you ever have of being remembered beyond your children’s life span is that which you contribute as a Human Being to others.  The only ones that are remembered positively decades later are those that contributed to society, to others, to the evolution of humankind in some form or another.

 

The land you think you own or are going to own will never be yours.  It belongs to Mother Earth and she can take it all away from you in a snap.  This is the illusion and when you understand it, you are free to contribute in a bigger more important way.  

 

You are not your things.
