Have you really thought about this? Do you apply this
to your
day-to-day life? Hopefully you do, because your every thought and word
is contributing to your life experience.
For openers, your thoughts produce your emotions, which,
in turn,
result in how you feel about a particular event occurring in your life.
It has always amazed me how people can walk around feeling
a particular way and not understand that it is their own thoughts, or
more
accurately what they are telling themselves that is producing the feeling
in the first place.
This is why two people can look at the exact same event
and have
opposite feelings about it. You are creating your own reality, moment
by moment, with the thoughts you choose to think and what you say, both
to yourself and others. Let us explore this a little further.
Most people will agree, and science can demonstrate,
that everything in
our world is a field of energy and therefore has a particular
frequency. The chair you are sitting on, your car, your cat, dog, you
and
everything else including thoughts, have a field of energy or vibration.
Recent scientific work has identified particular ranges
of frequencies
and scientists are able to measure them. Interestingly enough, negative
energies, like anger and rage, measure very low on the scale, while
positive energies like those given off by prayer and meditation reach
the highest measurements.
At this point you may be wondering what this has to
do with your
thoughts. Bear with me and I promise to connect the dots. The second
part of this equation is the universal law that states "like attracts
like".
This has been referred to as the law of attraction,
law of similar and
other names. What we choose to call it is not terribly important, what
is important to understanding the part this plays in our lives.
Let us supposing for a moment you are in a bad mood.
You are feeling
pretty negative. At that particular moment in time your personal
vibration, the energy of your thoughts and words is in the lower frequencies.
Let us call this particular mood, "Frequency X."
Now somewhere off in the distant universe, there is
another negative
experience. Maybe it is a flat tire, whose frequency happens to be X
as well. By virtue the law of attraction, you will begin attracting
that or
some other undesirable experience to you.
There are no accidents. The universe works on a specific
set of
principles that do not waver. Like attracts like, whether we believe
it or
not. The good news is that the opposite is also true.
If, for example, you are feeling great, having invested
time sitting
and reading your goals and taking care to monitor your thoughts,
intentions, and your internal and external dialogue, you are now entering
a high energy vibration and are in a place to attract other high vibrations,
generally things that you want to have, into your life.
I am not asking you to accept this blindly, only that
you begin to
observe the world around you and see if this holds true for you. I am
sure you have noticed situations when, in a room full of people, one
person seems to be the centre of attention.
Why do you suppose this is? I will give you a hint,
that is it is
probably not her perfume. Similarly, you probably know people who are
always having undesirable experiences in their lives. These are the
people who have a lousy time in even the best restaurant.
They seem to travel with dark clouds over them and always
experience
things going wrong in their everyday lives. If you observe andlisten
to
them closely, you will begin to see the connection between what they
think and say and what shows up in their lives.
Your exercise for the next few days is to closely monitor
your every
thought and word. When you catch yourself dwelling in the negative,
do something to interrupt your pattern and substitute a positive thought
in its place.
