Just because someone else is having a bad day doesn’t mean that you have to as well. Instead, turn your attention inward to your positivity work and give thanks with every breath you take. Give thanks with every sip of your morning coffee and with every step you take. Give thanks every time you see something beautiful, every time something makes you smile, every time you hear a bird sing, a dog bark, a child laughing. Hold yourself accountable in every moment of your day for the attitude you take. Make it one of positivity and possibility. Make it one of gratitude.
Let not the problems of the world become your problems but instead turn all problems into growth potential by turning from negativity and toward positivity. It may sound silly, or just too simple, but it really works to turn a bad or unfortunate situation around. Simply turning away from negative thoughts, words and ideas while proclaiming only positive and good thoughts, words and ideas really does have a positive impact on all of life. Why not try it for even a day or two and see what happens. We suggest that you will be mightily surprised.
Watch with interest how things unfold today, especially as you continue to apply the lessons you have been learning this week: how to intend, how to breathe into calmness and clarity, and as you continue to practice the art of self-discipline, self-respect, and self-development. You do have the power to change the world, first your own small particle of the greater whole and then the greater whole, for by being a particle of the whole you are also the greater whole.
When things are in chaos around you, turn inward and bring calmness to the turmoil. Remind yourself that you are part of the whole and that you have the power within yourself to bring even the worst chaos into submission. By slow breath alone you can create an inner oasis where something new may begin to grow, where calmness may take over so that a new clarity may also take over. From this place of clarity, you will know what to do next, where to go, and how to act. When calmness takes over and clarity reigns then hope and possibility will also find a home.
The conscious mind is the active male principle, or energetic yang element of our being, identified physically with the brain.
The subconscious mind is the receptive feminine principle, or energetic yin element of our being, identified physically with the heart.
The thoughts and beliefs of the conscious mind move the heart of the subconscious mind to bring to physical life the object of its desire. To obtain this influence, the conscious mind must successfully woo the subconscious mind to receive its suggestions. To woo is to impress, to connect, to fertilize.
The subconscious mind has no interest in logical certainty, though it might be impressed by the passion imbued with a conscious intention. Attraction is an energetic affair, hardly a mental discourse.
The conscious mind is charged with the task of assuring that its intentions are grounded in its highest ideal of self, as the price of selfish intent must be paid eventually. The subconscious mind will not discriminate the moral appropriateness of a suggestion; its magical power is to create life, not to judge it.
However, it behooves the one who woos to be in alignment with truth, as the heart will ultimately not be attracted to an empty energetic charade.
Once the conscious mind identifies its desire and determines its rightness, it is ready to initiate wooing, opening the heart of the subconscious mind toward energetic conception.
Fertilization of the egg of the subconscious mind happens within a closed system. The sperm of conscious intention requires a potency of purpose to successfully fertilize the egg of creation.
To achieve this intensity of purpose, the conscious mind does well to seal itself off from all outside influences. It is best to not share with others one’s intention. To do so is to invite the doubts and jealousies of others to influence the subconscious, weakening the potency of one’s own suggestions.
Even within the closed system of the brain lie many doubting thoughts or oppositions to one’s intent. Similarly to outside influences, one does well to seal oneself off from negative thoughts within.
This is achieved by not feeding negative thoughts, by not continuing to think them when they appear. Giving them no attention, by shifting one’s attention to one’s positive intent, drives them into an inert state. Do not engage or argue with a negative thought, as to do so is to feed it and deplete your own energetic potency.
Within the womb of one’s own intention the imagination is exclusively engaged in fully living the materialization and emotional excitement of one’s dream. There is no holding back of emotional investment due to “fear of it not happening”.
There is no knocking on wood to appease any jealous gods either. Take the full imaginal and emotional leap into living the physical certainty of the realized dream, with total abandon. Imagination is the cause; physical expression is the effect.
Conception of all new life begins at the subtle level of energetic interaction. If the subconscious is not receptive to a suggestion, no amount of conscious willfulness will make it physically happen.
Once the subconscious receives its sperm of intent, a subtle process of energetic creation is initiated as it begins its unique journey toward physical manifestation. How it unfolds is a total mystery. No control is possible as to time and space of manifestation.
The conscious mind completely lets go of expectation and basks in the joy and gratitude of the magic of creation.
Total confidence.
Total letting go.
Total continued living in the subtle plane of imagination of life manifested, as truly desired.
