Now, I’m not talking about all that “Law of Attraction,” stuff which has exploited a very natural law and that is, where we put our attention is what we usually get back.
If you as a “Thinker,” (which is all of us) realize how very creative you are and that mostly, all that you experience is your creation- then much more understanding of how you shape your life is possible.
The reality is that first you create it, then you experience it, and then you are caught in it. The reason for this is that usually we don’t know that the source of all exists in us.
Sometimes, the gap is such that we have completely forgotten that we had desired something long ago and sometimes the gap is of years; whatever the case it is often too far back so we can’t connect the source.
But if we begin to watch deeply we will find out that all our thoughts are creating our lives and us. With that said these thoughts naturally create our hell and our heaven. They create our joy and misery as well as the negative and the positive.
Scientists say that every day in twenty-four hours, fifty thousand thoughts (or is it 70,000) pass through the average man.
As a rule we don’t allow all the thoughts to be realized; we choose. There are good thoughts, there are bad thoughts, there are beautiful thoughts and there are ugly thoughts. We all know that we choose. It is something like having a radio and all stations are available on the radio.
We become addicted to our thoughts, then these thoughts comes more often, are repeated more, create a groove in the head, in the brain cells, and becomes our reality.
Try and experiment– one day you are feeling very miserable: just sit silently in the chair, relax, and start enjoying. Just do the opposite — don’t get into the trap of the misery: start smiling. In the beginning it will look false and slowly what had started almost like a pretension is becoming real. The misery is disappearing; it no more has its hold on you, something has changed. Maybe even laughter is arising in you.
The things that we have been doing again and again, become almost determining factors in our lives and become fixed.
THE POINT IS THIS- WE CAN DROP ANY HABIT!!
You may have been smoking for thirty years — but you can drop THIS cigarette and never take another cigarette in your hand. You are free. If you cannot drop it, that simply means you are choosing not to drop it. I know because smoking is one of many habits I have slowly let go.
We never know anything until we try it and experiment.
