Think and You Shall Receive

If you’ve been reading my previous blogs, you’ll realise that I discuss a lot about the power of our minds. Now let me put it out to you that our minds are so powerful that if we only need to focus, we can have anything we want. Regardless of whether it’s prosperity, loving relationships, health or anything we can conceive, we can have it.

Before you start thinking that I’m blabbering about my ‘power of the mind’ crap again, let’s talk about this more theoretically. I’m sure you must have heard it thousands of times that our lives are in our hands. As much as we always agree with that, do we actually believe it? So what do you believe? Do you believe in the universe? Do you believe in the solar system? So you must also believe in the existence of our planet Earth, which contains human beings such as ourselves. And within each human being is the organs system, which contains cells, which contains molecules, which contains atoms and finally, deep beneath all that, is energy. We are energy, and we are an energy source which would have enough power to illuminate a city for a week!

So if we actually radiate energy, we should also be able to feel the energy or vibration of others. But have you thought about what kind of energy we're emitting to the world?

Lisa Nichols, a motivational speaker and powerful advocate of personal empowerment and emotional healthiness, used to think that the only way she could gain love was through sex. So she jumped from one sexual partner to another just to get a little love, until she chanced upon The Secret. Through this theology, she learnt that the reason why she couldn’t find a man to love her was because she couldn’t love herself. She couldn’t love herself because she felt that she didn’t deserve it. And when she felt this way, she sent out a subconscious negative vibration to men who would then subconsciously receive it and get the impression that she’s only good for casual relationships. We become what we think. If we think that nobody will love us for who we are because we are not physically attractive, not intelligent, not rich or whatever lame excuses we can conjure up, nobody will love us.

So now that you’ve gotten a brief idea of the concept of the Law of Vibration, you’ll probably understand how the Law of Attraction works. Have you had a day that had gone so bad that just when you thought your day couldn’t get any worse, it did? Is it all a coincidence? Our unfavourable circumstances will always become more unfavourable if we keep using our energies to focus on the unfavourable areas of our lives. We would practically be feeding these negativities with more power to manifest into something that is more negative through the Law of Attraction. But if we learn to shift our focus to the more positive aspects of our lives like having a job, clothes on our backs, someone who loves us, enough money to buy our favourite coffee, and simply be grateful for what we already have, positivity WILL be attracted to us. I guarantee it!

So instead of thinking about how little money you have in your bank account, think about how much you can save if you take the bus instead of a cab, where ‘save’ is the objective word which means you have an abundance. Instead of dreading illness, love good health. Instead of thinking about how obedient other people’s children are, be grateful that you have children to love. That is why even Mother Theresa would never attend an Anti-war rally, but would instead definitely attend a Peace rally. See the difference?

When we start thinking positively, we become happy. When we’re happy, we become inspired. When we’re inspired, we become creative. When we become creative, we discover new ways of improving our work and ultimately reaping the results of our good works.

So never under-estimate the power of our minds or think that we can only achieve so much, because our bodies are distracting us from who we really are. Our bodies are simply physical components that carries out what our minds visualise ourselves to do.

“Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe it, can achieve it.”
