Tell It Like It Isn’t

This is it—the key to feeling good no matter what is happening:  You have to “tell the story” of what you want, not what you have.

According to Abraham-Hicks, the reason most of us feel stuck is that we keep ‘telling the story” of how things are, so we keep recreating how things are.  The truth of the universe is that nothing can ever be stuck.  Energy is always moving.  (Remember the Zero Point Field—physicists have PROVEN that energy is always in motion.)

So even though it feels like our lives are totally stagnated, they CAN’T.  It only looks like we’re standing still because we keep looking at what’s in front of us and therefore keep vibrating on a match with what’s in front of us.  In other words, our thoughts, which are the way we attract what we want in our lives—that to which the law of attraction responds—bring us more of what we have because we keep thinking about what we have.

Makes sense, doesn’t it?

What do we pay the most attention to in our lives?  We pay the most attention to what’s in front of our faces.

And even more than just paying attention to it, we TALK ABOUT IT.  How often do we communicate about what we desire, what we truly want?  Think about the e-mails you receive from friends, the phone calls you have, the conversations you have or overhear.  What are people talking about?  What do you talk about?  What is.

We’re all talking about how things are in our lives right now.

No wonder we keep getting more of the same stuff.

If what’s going on in our lives right now is great, talking about it is perfectly fine … because it makes us feel good.  But if the things we have in our lives right now aren’t things that please us, no wonder we can’t find a way to feel good.  The way to feel good is to think about the things we want and not things we don’t like (whether we have them in our lives or not).  In other words, we have to tell it like it isn’t!

Since yesterday, I have absolutely refused to talk about anything I don’t like.  Of course, I can’t control what other people talk about, but I can control what I talk about.  And thankfully, my husband is in this with me, so he’s agreed to talk about what we like too.

Just by making this one small change, I have completely changed how I feel.  I am full of joy and promise!  I am excited about what’s coming because the more I talk about it, the more it feels like it’s already happening.

Today, Tim and I talked about how fun it is to be lottery winners, and while we talked about it, I felt like a lottery winner!

So I’m telling it like it is if I like how it is, but if I don’t like how it is (current condition), I’m telling it like it isn’t (virtual truth):

Today I had a fun day (current condition).  I spent the day grinning because I’m a lottery winner.  I played with my dog and took a long bath and we’re going out for a grand dinner.  (virtual truth).

The more I think about what I want and talk about it, the better I feel.

And here’s the amazing thing:  I can do this and still be doing things I wouldn’t be doing if my virtual truth was my current condition.  For example, today I worked on a freelancing services blog and preparing a portfolio for bidding on projects.  Obviously, I wouldn’t be doing that if I really was a lottery winner.  But in between the work, I was thinking about the life I want to have.  So when I did the work, I was in a good mood and it was fun.

I think I’m on to something here.  I plan to be the next Cynthia Stafford.

When You Hate Anything, You Hate Yourself

Do you want the science behind the power of the mind?  Check out The Field:  The Quest for the Secret Force of the Universe by Lynne McTaggart.  The book is about the zero point field, so-called because vibrational fluctuations in the field of all energy are still detectable in temperatures of absolute zero, which is the lowest possible energy state.

In this state, there should be no energy left because no more can be removed.  But there’s always some residual vibration due to virtual particle exchange.  Scientists discounted this vibration for years because it was always present.  In physics equations, physicists would subtract out the zero-point energy.  They called this process ‘renormalization.’  Their reasoning was that because the vibration was always present, it didn’t change anything and therefore didn’t count.  Seems a little cavalier to me, but there you go.

The zero point field turns out to be kind of important.  Think about it.  If you have all this energy, all the subatomic particles in constant flux, what you have is an inexhaustible energy force, a sort of supercharged link between all things.

The zero point field suggests that all matter in the universe is interconnected by subatomic waves that are spread out connecting one part of the universe to every other part.  Scientists now realize this field could be the explanation for all kinds of phenomenon previously unexplainable, such as the Chinese belief in chi, telepathy, and other psychic phenomenon.  It’s also why your mind can impact the world around you.

It’s also why anything you feel about something outside yourself is what you feel about yourself.  We’re all connected.  We’re all one energy.
