When GOOD turns to Dissapointment

“How We Too Often Make Our Good Feelings Turn Into Dissapointment”

It is really easy to do and we so often do it without even noticing.  Follow this and see if you are one of these people, even some of the time.

So, you get a good feeling, maybe a gut instinct and you feel like something good is around you or going to happen to you.  That’s a nice feeling! 

What do you — we — often do?!  We LOOK for confirmation.  We buy a lottery ticket, start dreaming of what would happen if….  We imagine that NOW is the time our ship will come in etc. etc.  Guess what?  When those things don’t happen, we get dissapointed, we even get depressd: “how come other people have this or that and I don’t…?”  “How come I didn’t win this or gain that?” 

Of course, the next thing that happens is… well, the good feelings are gone and we have served only to prove the good feelings false.  Not a great reinforcing cycle.

WHAT TO DO?!

As the Beatles said, “let it be”.  If you feel good or feel the presence of good, let it be!  If you do that, and DON’T look for anything the feeling lasts a long long time. 

My oldest daughter said to me at dinner tonight, after I was informing her about some writing I have been doing lately, “Dad, sometimes we weren’t meant to look too hard for things; sometimes we just have to let go and let things happen.”  She is right.  We then had a good talk about what I have just written for you to read.  We had a laugh and then agreed: “Let it be, and good things last so much longer… maybe your whole life long…”

A daily task and a simple list

A Daily Task

In the paradigm of Inner Management, after beliefs are formed thought and feeling are the dynamic duo.  This is why the action of building images with deeply associated feelings is so important.  Using this knowledge you have a small task to complete daily: from now on, if you feel bad, notice.  Check your thoughts.  Let negative go, detach from it, and let good flourish.  If you feel good, notice.  Check your thoughts or your deep state of awareness.  Let feeling good prosper as your natural expression, as the good states of being provide nourishment to the body, the minds and to life-force.  Feel the power of the minds, as every thought has a response in the body, and every feeling has an associated thought.  Align and reinforce good thought with good feeling.  Remember this too: the higher the vibrating frequency of any given thing in our universe, the closer it is to the vibration of light.  Light vanquishes all darkness, as you know.  The thoughts and feelings you want, the one’s that feel best, are of the best quality and are also closer in vibration to light.  Love and gratitude are the strongest and most positive of feelings and thought.  Feel them often as they never wear or fade – except through lack of use.

A Simple List

It is time now to make a short list of the positive emotions and feelings you enjoy most as well as the simplest, most natural and direct routes you have of achieving them through choice and action.  This is a simple list, not an elaborate one.  Using Action Tool #4, list and develop ways of tuning in to positive emotions and feeling – as much as possible without the use of ego.  List simple activities you have done in the past and can do now that bring you towards the expression of light and towards harmony.  Make this list uncomplicated, short and sweet.  Ask, what are the simplest activities you can enjoy that bring forth positive emotions?  How about talking to a positive friend, enjoying a sit in the sun, gardening, writing, a silent cup of tea, running, cooking a healthy meal…; do any of these resonate with you? Write out a short list of simple and wholesome activities that bring forth in you the natural positive emotions and feelings you enjoy most.  Undertake one or more of these activities every day, if only for a few moments.  Bring this quality of being to your life, as you deserve and were intended for the full and natural expression of life – and a quality life has an authentic simplicity at the core.  There is so much joy around us when we are able to find it.  Find yours in the simple things on your simple list; then share your joy with others.

“BEING Through The Negative”

“There’s always stuff that happens in our lives that we do not want”

Its how you approach it and how you weather it that makes All the difference in the world.  Read on and find out how to BE through the negative and return to the positive. Read the rest of this entry »

Anchor Your Own Abundance

Recall the tuning forks we looked at earlier.  We know that if one is struck and placed near another that has the same frequency, the second will begin to resonate with the first.  Stop the first, and the second will go on resonating.  Through the application of energy, the first tuning fork puts forth a vibration at a particular frequency.  The second fork, in its creation, was built to put forth or receive the same frequency as the first.  We see that the net effect the application of energy has is resonation, and as it is for the tuning forks it is for us.   We resonate with, give energy to, and get energy from the thoughts, conditions, and experiences that share the frequency of our own vibration.  

You get what you focus upon; you get what you are.  You have likely heard the great truth from Proverbs 23:7: “As a man thinks in his heart, so is he.”   It is of primary importance that we think deliberately in our hearts in order to deliberately achieve that which we desire. The work of deliberately seeking material for and creating specific and detailed thoughts and images that will become central to your state of resonance is step six of this system.  This step is concerned with action and will be accomplished through the second action tool as explained below.

You get what you focus upon; you get what you are.  It is now time to refine and strengthen your resonation with affluence.  Think of affluence as a set of goal posts in a great game of life.  Though the game of life and goal posts as goals, are overused metaphors, they have a brief purpose in this system because the metaphor demonstrates that you have to know where the goal posts are in order to play the game properly and to score the winning goal.  Though life is not a game and affluence is not a shot at the net, the metaphor has merit in the image it creates: you have to determine what affluence is to you and what it looks like in order to reach your goals and realize your desires.  You have put effort into this area already, and it is now time to refine and strengthen the work you have done. 

Ready?  Look at this series of questions and feel the quality answers that resonate with you; find the answers that make practical sense and bring a quality feeling to you.   The questions follow.  What is your vision of health?  What does your vision of wealth look like?  What makes you deeply happy?  These are broad, guiding questions you will use to form your focused resonance images.  The point here is that you are looking for images that resonate within you.  When I see my image of health for instance, I am just finishing a tough hike in the coastal forest and I am smiling, full of energy, and ready to vibrantly take on some quality work later in my day.  It’s a nice image and it feels good to go to that image when I think of health; there is a lot of meaning and feeling associated with a quality image, so let’s get you working on your special images that you will carry with you always.

You understand and believe in the power of resonant energy, and you know why it is important to become resonant and you have chosen to do so.  You have an understanding of consciousness and of the connection between the parts and of the Whole Self.  You are now ready for Action Tool #2: create definite and detailed, consciously directed and intensely focused images of your desired state of affluence and commit them to deep and feeling memory.  The images you are about to create have to be of the deepest and most feeling sort because saying you want affluence and providing a general idea is not enough; it’s too vague and you can only obtain a vague realization from a vague image.  The work is upon you now.  It is time to take up some paper and a pen and write at the top of three blank pages a heading on each: on the first, health; on the second, wealth; and on the third, happiness.  You are about to fill those pages.  Please don’t concentrate on being neat and tidy during this exercise; you are meant to gracefully enjoy the flow of creativity.  You can always do a good copy later if you need to!  J

When you begin, it will be important to create your images in the positive.  That is to say that if you want an image that is concerned with eradicating fear in your life, don’t focus on ‘no fear’ focus upon confidence and well-being or strength.  If you want to eradicate lack, don’t focus on ‘no lack,’ focus instead upon abundance.  The reason for this is that you must focus upon and resonate with what you want, not what you don’t want.  When you begin in a moment, you will be committing three types of information to the page: (i) drawings or doodling, or cuttings of pictures; (ii) writing in the form of image phrases and sentences; and, (iii) splashing and smatterings of single words related to the heading.  Each of these three categories is of course related to your presently desired, optimal state of health, then wealth, then happiness.  Again, the reason for doing this is to create focused, believable mental images with strongly associated feelings that you will carry about and focus upon in your daily internal environment.  These images will help you to create your state of resonance in every moment, and quickly right your state when you stray.  They will help you to liberate and generate energy from the alignment of the Whole Self. They will become the quality images you immediately associate with health and wealth and happiness each time you hear or utter these words.  So, this is pretty important.

Before you begin filling those pages, let us take a moment to look one more time at belief.  This is so critical.  You have to believe your images or you will create false and weak resonance, and your ensuing actions will not be of the necessary quality to attain your desires.  You must believe your images, but what does that mean to this exercise?  Well, in a practical sense it will not do to create an image of your health wherein you are the fastest person on earth as well as a professional power-lifter and champion jockey all in one; it will not do to imagine that next week you will be the richest person on earth; and it will not do to imagine that you will laugh and giggle and live in a constant state of hysterical delirium.  No, your images must be first and foremost believable.  Stretch to the outer edge of your current state of belief, but go no further.  As you begin to feel the power of this system, as likely you have already, you will be able to grow your images as it feels appropriate; you will be able to expand your definitions of health, wealth, and happiness as you develop greater belief in your abilities and your growth.  Take on that growth when you feel it authentically coming from within you, but for now ask yourself and answer: “What does my really wonderful state of increasing affluence look, sound, feel, taste, and smell like in the next six months?”  You will absolutely be able to come back to this exercise, and you will do so fluidly and frequently well before six months is over.  You can see, though, that a solid start with believable material is vital.  Success begets success, so start with a believable stretch.  You need not wonder how you will accomplish and obtain the conditions and experiences you image, but the answers are in the fact that (i) you will deeply resonate with your images thus creating the immediate benefits associated with powerful resonation, as outlined previously; (ii) in the next chapters you will establish important direction and learn to take effective action daily thus choreographing events that will open doors and smooth paths for you to realize these images; (iii) you will learn and engage further action tools to complement and develop what you have already learned; and, (iv) you will come upon serendipitous happenings, excellent intuition, energy to make change, positive states of motion, and much more that is excellent and well.  This is just the way it is!

There is no time like the present… in fact there is no other time than the present… so, please begin.  Find a quiet place, put on some soothing music, pour a cup of tea, calm down and cool out into those powerful Alpha waves… enjoy doodling, phrasing, and splashing words upon your pages.  When you are done in an hour or in a few days, use the pictures, images, and words you have laid down to create a solid, grounded image or series of images in your mind.  You will know that you have completed this action well when you are able to hear or say each of the words health, wealth, and happiness and have an immediately associated image or image set occur strongly in your mind – one that simultaneously initiates deeply resonant feelings of satisfaction, and rightness.   Spend the time you need to fully complete this action step.  Focus on affluence, as you get what you focus upon; you get what you are.  Your belief in and work with these understandings is directly related to the success you will have positively influencing affluence in your life….

Images, Being, and a Simple List

Powerful Thought; Powerful Actions

Introduction

Let’s take a moment to recap some of the highlights of the journey so far.  So far, the idea of consciously developing a positive resonation signature has been presented; the choice to do the work to develop a resonant state, with all its implications, was put forward.   Several excellent and logical reasons to develop a resonant state at the frequency of affluence have been given; these provide a foundation for the belief needed to first make an intellectual choice then take action.  Questions were designed and presented that have you take note of what you resonate with presently, what you think about most, and to urge you to generally gauge your state.  Attention has been given to the understanding and belief that the desire to be and being affluent is both right and natural; further, attention was given to noticing and giving grateful appreciation to any condition of affluence presently in your life.  You have been provided with a detailed look at the construction of consciousness with the purpose of diffusing and letting go of ego while simultaneously and purposefully directing conscious thought.  This attention to ego and focused thought was provided to establish the best pre-conditions possible as you prepare to make change and take action.  The Whole Self was presented with an emphasis on the many benefits of positive inner alignment.  In Step Five, you were asked to control conscious thought more and more each day, with greater and greater clarity and focus; continuously directing and redirecting it towards thoughts, states of being, feelings, situations, and internal and external environments that are healthy, of wealth, and create happiness.  The first of the Action Tools has been given wherein you were challenged to notice affluence in the world around you, to see how it comes about and for whom; to ask and attempt to answer questions within yourself as to why it comes about, to notice conditions and states of affluence and gratefully appreciate them.  Who has health?  Where is health; what is its resonant frequency? How is it being brought about? Who has wealth? Where is wealth; what is its resonant frequency? How is it being brought about? Who has happiness? Where is happiness; what is its resonant frequency? How is it being brought about? 

To this point, a lot of work has gone into fostering understanding, creating the belief, and designing the thoughts and patterns of thought that will cause you to feel and then become increasingly affluent.  In the following section you will take the action of deliberately seeking out and creating specific, detailed, and intensely focused resonant thought that will become central to your consciously directed state of being from now on.  You will learn specific techniques to create and experience states of affluence.  These states and the images, thoughts, and cues that you develop will become central to your daily life and will become the internal homing device you carry with you everywhere.  You will use this internal state as the center from which you will emanate thought and action as you go about daily life.  You have been making excellent preparations to this point; it is time to get quite specific.  Enjoy.

The Power of the Whole Self

The Synergy in Life System — Section #22

Synergy is that consolidated, concentrated power that exists when all component parts of a system are moving in the same direction.  Kind of like the cars of a train moving along a singular track.  There’s a massive power in a moving train, and each car benefits from and lends itself to the massive force being generated in the action of the train running down a track.  For each of us as individuals, it is the same.  If we gather ALL parts of ourself in concert we have potential for massive power.  Enjoy.

The Power of the Whole Self

Introduction

You have been introduced to the pervasive vibration that exists throughout our universe, therefore you have understood that properly generating resonance is an activity worthy of pursuit.  You have seen it logically demonstrated that the full, abundant, and affluent expression of life is the intention of the universal life-force in all things and therefore a natural expression of you.  Now in order to begin to sensibly tune into and resonate with the affluence you are rightly entitled to enjoy, you will be shown how the parts of the Whole Self can come together (or work in opposition).  You will be shown how through directing purposeful thought you will create a synergistic resonance of purposeful energy.

The Grameen bank and You

The Synergy in Life System — Section 20

Ever heard of the Grameen Bank?  No collateral, No legal instrument, No group guarantee or joint-liability.  And… unlike many banks right now, this one is doing FANTASTICLY well!

If there was ever a story worth telling it is of the Grameen Bank and Professor Yunus.  He is a pioneer or magnificent magnanimity.  Below is the 20th excerpt from my book The Synergy in Life System.  Please read about this Nobel prize winning professor and how he helps others.  It has a bearing in your life too.

Helping Others

Some will say that they cannot or should not have affluence because there are so many poor and unfortunate people in the world who have nothing other than misery in their lives.  As you likely are deeply concerned about the plight of poor and unfortunate people, you should spend some of your time helping them.  You can help them best, however, not by giving them some form of material things that will keep them in their place, but through giving them the power of hope and by developing pictures of affluence in their minds, and by helping them to realize their deserved expression of life.  Read the rest of this entry »

Purposeful, harmonious, directed thought and resonance

 Purposeful, harmonious, directed thought and resonance…  If everything everywhere has and is energy, then there is a great logic to learning to understand and gain control of energy.  If you resonate with anger and resentment, that’s what you’ll get.  If you resonate with purpose and optmism, then you are developing a condition of what you want in your life.  This is section 12 of The Synergy in Life System.  Enjoy.  Thanks, Douglas Leadbetter M.Ed.

Does Optimism Make You Live Longer?

Optimism is related to longer life in a new Scientific American quoted study.  Check it out!  I love the second comment left on the SA page after the article!  Hilarious.  Question: how does optimism relate to energy that you can control?  Are you in charge of creating optimism?

The Synergy in Life System — Section 11

Did we all recently hear something like this, “yes we can!”

What is that but a positive statement that suggests positive action?  Its simple, yet effective.  There’s no need to wait until the perfect direction comes up or the perfect plan is laid out… because they don’t exist.  We are always moving in a direction and if we are thoughtful, we engage in planning as we go, with a mind to be able to change.  Thoughts are powerful.   Statements are powerful.  And, there’s scientific logic to back this up.  Have a look at the next section of the Synergy in Life System.  Read the rest of this entry »
