The Powerful Creator That is You
Think about it for a moment...we've all heard the
theory that we create our reality beginning with our thoughts. If
you haven't heard it yet, you will hear more soon, because this
concept is getting more and more press these days, and for good
reason. Many actually believe this powerful secret was just that
for millennia - A SECRET.
The literal creating our reality from our thoughts
is a powerful concept, and life-altering once grasped fully. It's
incredible to think about how wonderful it would be to just think
something, and have it manifest in our lives....and also a little
scary. After all, what about our 'bad' or negative thoughts? What
about those thoughts that are formed in moments of strong emotion
such as anger or jealousy?
The human mind is extremely complex, as any
psychologist will tell you. The intricate web of connecting
thoughts, memories of prior events and circumstances, emotions,
assumptions and beliefs is too complex for us to fully
comprehend. In terms of manifesting reality from our thoughts,
this is a good thing!
Because of the complex background of thoughts and
emotions that accompany each new thought, there is a grace period
in the manifesting of physical reality, wherein only those
thoughts that are clear and precise...those not filtered through
limiting beliefs and conflicting emotions, manifest as a clearly
discernable result. ALL thoughts create results, but often our
physical worlds are in a jumble...because our thoughts are in a
jumble!
Author Joe Vitale makes this point with a
brilliantly simple analogy in his e-book Spiritual Marketing:
"What you hold in your mind with energy and focus will tend
to be created in your reality. It takes a little longer to
experience results because we keep changing our minds. Imagine
going to a restaurant and ordering chicken soup. But before it
arrives you change your order to won ton soup. And before that
arrives you change your order back to chicken soup. You'll sit
there and complain, saying "I can never get what I want!",
when in reality you are the reason your soup is late!"
Added to this is the deep and complicated web of
conditioned thoughts which are those that have been placed in our
minds, or at least influenced, by others. Everyone is surrounded
by the expectations of others, and even though as adults we may
do our best to limit this, the influences of our childhood years
have usually left powerful lasting impressions.
The great part of this 'secret' is, once we have
'discovered' it we can begin to explore our own thought patterns
and change them. What could be more fun?
Human beings are the only creatures with
self-awareness, meaning we can think about our
thoughts...therefore we can intentionally change our
circumstances. Add to this the ability to focus our thoughts and
literally create our reality...and you have incredible,
life-altering power.
