How to Let Go Of Resistance So Your Desires Can Manifest

Do you ever find yourself thinking, "I'm way too emotional about this. I shouldn't want it so much"? Especially if you've been hurt before... burned deeply by a desire that you desired. You wonder if you've set the bar too high, or if you simply want something too much.

Social media marketer Kim Orlando felt this way. She was worried about being too emotional about her success. Had she gone overboard... desiring success too much instead of sailing through a take-it-or-leave-it (non-resistant) attitude? It created a contradiction; making her wonder if she was too attached to what she wanted.

When we have a really strong desire, we often have somewhere within us an exact opposite energy... some kind of fear. It's the nature of duality. Part of us wants this, and part of us wants that. (Or part of us wants this, but not if that will hurt us.)

If we aren't feeling any emotion (good or bad)... if we're feeling indifference... then our desire isn't big enough. So how much desire is too much desire?

This is a favorite game of our Ego. It's a game of cat-and-mouse at its best. If Ego can make us look at impending disaster, then it can summon resistance. It tingles with delight when we start looking at potential problems. This is why we sometimes need discipline to train ourselves to not look at the problems, but to look only at the desired outcome. Yes, there's that word "desire" again!

Kim knew this was her hidden power, to look only at her desired outcome. She knew the easiest way to let go of resistance was to look ONLY at her desires, and we can do the same. So go ahead... let's feel free to sprinkle positive energies all over our desires. In changing our perspective from potential problems to desired outcomes, it changes our vibration and invites success.

Helpful tip: When you're feeling stuck, it's never the situation that has you stuck... it's your energy that's become stuck, by the trigger of negative emotions that can come from past situations or events.

In other words, it isn't the pain of the situation; it's the pain of not being connected in the natural energy of who you really are... of being connected to that magical part of you that's a creative vibrational being who can use positive energies to create what you want and bring it into physical manifestation. Part of this process is to allow your manifestations to materialize, and not get stuck in the negative vibrations that block them.

Proof the Law of Attraction Is Working?

Are you one of those people who needs proof all the time? Are you one of those Law of Attraction students who catches yourself saying things like I wonder how this is going to come to me? Or What do I need to figure out so I know what to do next in order to manifest what I desire?

I get it. I've been there. In fact, and it may seem difficult to believe as I've been practicing this a while now... I STILL do it!

Here's the thing, your brain is wired to figure things out. To solve or anticipate problems. It's a natural function of your monkey brain. But, unfortunately, while this function may serve you well in your day-to-day life, it really serves you very little when it comes to being an effective manifestor.

And the solution is really very simple: Stop trying to figure out where/how/when your manifestation is going to come! It's not your job!

Alright, I understand. Fine and dandy, Tarkan! So how the hell do I do that? Hmmm?

Well, I'll tell you. There's actually a great and very simple tool that will help all you predictability junkies out there and will serve to reduce your need to figure everything out on your own. And here's a little hint: Every time you use the words or phrases serendipity, coincidence, synchronicity, everything is falling into place, and out of the blue-you are actually gathering your own proof that The Law of Attraction is working in your life!

Fact is, The Universe provides us with proof all the time. We just have to train ourselves to notice the signs. And one of the very best tools I've discovered for getting the proof you need is to begin recording personal evidence of every coincidence, serendipitous event or every out-of-the-blue experience that happens to you.

For skeptics and those who feel a constant need for proof or evidence that their desires are manifesting, this can easily become an indispensable exercise to add to their manifestation toolkit. Skepticism or doubt produces negative vibrations. More doubt attracts more negative vibration, and as we all know, The Law of Attraction is working in every moment to match our vibration and bring us more of the same, whether wanted or unwanted. Doubt slows down the speed of the delivery of our desires, which is why it is so important that we work to reduce doubt. The less the doubt or skepticism we have, the faster we manifest.

Observing serendipitous incidents in your daily life and chronicling them can do just that. Gathering proof replaces those negative vibrations with the positive vibrations of knowing that The Law of Attraction is indeed working for you.

If you struggle with doubt and skepticism and need constant proof to keep you on track and foster faith, then you need to start doing this today. Get yourself a journal and dedicate it to writing down every bit of evidence that you observe. By the time you have logged 7 or 8 personal experiences, you will be well on your way to knowing through evidence and proof, that The Law of Attraction is working in your life.

And remember, evidence doesn't always have to come in physical form. In fact, the first manifestations you will notice will be internal. So, even if you are just beginning to feel better in general, or have much less resistance around your desire, that is definitely proof that you're moving in the right direction, so write it down!

This exercise will definitely raise your vibration and move you up the emotional guidance scale. and the more often you do it, the easier it will become. So make sure you commit to it and practice it daily. It will also have the added benefit of causing you to give more attention to your desires, doing more allowing and speeding up the delivery of your manifestations.

Good luck, manifestors.

Affirmations for MANIFESTING • Manifest Your Desires!

Want to Light Up a Room?

Looking for the latest luminous make-up to brighten your complexion and cover up your flaws?

Need to know the current fashion trends for heading out to the meet-ups?

We love all those gorgeous websites on fashion and beauty, but right now we're going to talk about another way to light up a room. Here is a great quote to show our point:

"Beauty is a kind of radiance. People who possess a true inner beauty, their eyes are a little brighter, their skin a little more dewy. They vibrate at a different frequency."

Cameron Diaz

Want to know the secret to true inner beauty? It starts with self-awareness. It's finding out your true self - what makes you tick, what you love, what you don't love, what you're good at, what you're not so good at, your dreams, desires, habits, etc. It helps you 'rock' what makes you happy and go for what you're passionate about. And experts like Daniel Goldman, author of the best-selling books on Emotional Intelligence, say it's a foundation of success.

Anyone can easily answer questions about their likes and dislikes. "I love ice cream, movies, long walks, etc." But real self-awareness goes deeper - it's answering questions we only ask ourselves. It's not something you do once at a motivational class and then forget about. It's an ongoing practice of being quiet enough to let the answers come to you from inside. Sometimes just being alone without computers, TVs, and phones is really useful and often rare. Some ways of achieving this quietness are with practices like walking, exercise, yoga, and meditation.

There are plenty of meditations online specifically for self-awareness - just Google or YouTube the phrase. The meditation doesn't have to only be geared towards awareness though, since all meditations quiet the mind. Trying out different examples not only gives you variety, it also helps you explore the types that resonate with you - more awareness. My favorite is 'Meditate and Relax with Bob Proctor'. Here is the link:

http://www.proctorgallagherinstitute.com/tips-and-tools/meditation

This is an excerpt from that meditation, "With your inner eye, you now see a beautiful white light of energy flowing in through the crown of your head. And this beautiful white light is permeating, penetrating and filling every cell of your being... "

If this sounds too 'out there' for you, then head over to YouTube.com and watch Bob Proctor's "You Were Born Rich" audio series from years ago. He is known as America's Greatest Prosperity Teacher and has taught millions of people his wisdom for success. In that video series, he explains the science behind everything he teaches about how a person's mind works. He is as 'real' and knowledgeable as anyone you will ever find on the subject.

And last but not least, another great practice for awareness is journaling. It's basically keeping a diary of your thoughts. If you already journal at night, you can add theses simple questions to your routine. If journaling is not for you, these questions can be answered in your head before falling off to sleep. They can take as little as five minutes.

Remember the events of the day.

Think of what you are grateful for from the day. Since gratitude is becoming such a prevalent practice nowadays, this might be something you already do every night.

What two instances from the day are you proud of? Answers could be things like: I rocked that project at work; I took the stairs instead of the elevator; I was kind to that stranger in line.

What two instances from the day would you have done differently? An example might be that during a disagreement with a family member, you wished you hadn't blurted out the hurtful words. What would you have done different in that moment? Spend a few seconds playing a new scene out in your mind. Note that when you play this new scene, the other person doesn't change - only you do.

Don't let the simplicity of these questions make you think they are not effective. Once this becomes a regular nightly routine, you might not even notice right away, but you'll be growing your self-awareness - an invaluable skill for achieving your goals!

"You have to find what sparks a light in you so that you in your own way can illuminate the world."

Oprah Winfrey

Do You Always Know What You Want?

Do you really know what you want and are you prepared to do whatever it takes to achieve it?

I have been watching a TV program called the "Seven Year Switch". When I saw it advertised I thought it would be a group of youngsters like "Love Island" not my cup of tea, however I happened to see the second episode by chance and realised it was a serious attempt to sort out failing partnerships. I was hooked.

By pairing with another couple each person was able to realise their faults with the help of their temporary new partner, who was able to see the situation from a new perspective. This encouraged dialog. With the result that three out of the four couples decided they would work on their differences and make their relationships work. During this period they were helped by two councellors.

This got me thinking about the situation many couples find themselves in. Swamped by day-to-day living it is easy to lose sight of what you really want, and how to support the fulfilment of dreams for yourself and other family members.

So often nobody talks about irritations, desires or hurt feelings they lie buried to resurface periodically as harsh words and rows. We seem to have lost the knack of really communicating our wants needs, hopes and desires in a caring way. Anger is at the forefront of relationships everyone seems stressed, selfishness and thoughtfulness seem to have taken over.

Even world leaders like Donald Trump and Boris Johnson are known for their thoughtless tweets and comments. Diplomacy appear to have gone out of the window!

Road rage is rife instead of courtesy and old-fashioned good manners. Youngsters swear and run a mock in schools and in the streets upsetting residents, besides threatening staff, in schools and hospital and even the fire brigade are under attack in some areas. Why is there such a breakdown in good family values and disciplined.

These wayward youngsters, often knife carrying, gang members, don't seem to know what they really want out of life, or have the desire to live a law-abiding existence. They follow the wrong role models and rampage for want of something better to do.

Sometimes businesses lose track of their direction and without changing strategies can haemorrhage great losses.

So to get what you want out of your relationships, your work or business, your hobby or life generally stop and think and then communicate with those around you, and listen to their needs too. Learn to compromise and you will be in a happier place.

I am a great fan of positive attitude books and the power of the mind for turning things around and achieving goals. These can be particularly helpful if you are going through a rough patch. In essence they all say - you are the captain of your ship steer it in the direction you want to find yourself or you can end up on the rocks!

Why Thinking Big Is Such A Great Deal

A lot of people misinterpret why thinking big is such a great deal. They rather settle for less than more. Yet, greatness and extraordinary results stand for gigantic desires. Pursuing an existence regardless of the odds is the greatest life you can possibly live. So, to be great, you have to think big.

What is the sense to have just an ordinary life? Are you questioning what is widely believed? Do you have the guts to shake up the conventional? Can you imagine or create things that do not exist yet?

For that, you must be open to the possibility that your life and what you accomplish can become great. Achievement and abundance show up because they are the natural outcomes of doing the right things with no limits attached to thinking big.

A lot of people laugh and say that there are limits to what humans can do. But those are the ones who only see the difficulties or the ways in which it cannot work out. The reason is that they are literally blinded by fear or a bizarre sense of pride that wants to justify their limited existence. They do not want to face the fact that they could do more or be more.

"If you can dream it, you can do it." - Walt Disney

Thinking Outside the Box 

But your life does not have to be less than it could be. Thinking big, you have a dream. Yet right now, there are people laughing, not believing in it. If there are limits, they only are the ones you put on yourself. And if you are wasting your time focusing on that, you never going to create the momentum that you need to actually make something come true in your life.

However, in life, you can build practically anything but if you get hung up on the virtual part, if you let that stop you, or if you believe the things that you think limit you, that is where you are going to stay forever. And then, you get to live in that box because you placed a ceiling on what is possible.

So, it is like a self-defined prison. But instead of that, you can keep your eyes on the stars and your feet on the ground. And act like someone who can see that there are no limits to this universe. Look at how you need to execute the steps. When dreaming big, thinking big, remember that your feet are the contact ground, and it is where the rubber meets the road. It is that moment of doing.

The Next Step in Thinking Big 

And so, instead of rejecting what is out of your comfort zone, see the possibilities, take action, execute, do something, move forward and make it real. Convince yourself that you have to keep moving. Get the power of ambition, take courage, go and do what you are destined to do.

"All men dream but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity. But the dreamers of the day are dangerous men for they may act on their dreams with open eyes to make them possible." - T.E. Lawrence

At the end of the day, it has to be the very mission of your life. There is a difference between dreaming and executing. And that is where a lot of people stop thinking big or make excuses. But the truth is; it is total crap. The thing that stops anyone is fear or a belief telling them that they can never accomplish it.

Actions Often Generate Rewards 

Yet, actions most always generate rewards. You can close your eyes, imagine the world you want to build, open your eyes and begin to create it. But many people do not. Thinking big or ambition rather gets a bad rap. Yet, the most dangerous thing is that most dream too small.

So, to be one of the great of this world, you need to aim for the ballpark, not just hitting the ball. It is such a great deal to allow yourself to think big, believe in yourself, rely on your abilities to become what you want and be arrogant enough to know that you are capable of it.

If you believe that you are worthy of being remembered, of people knowing your name, then you will have a chance to greatness. But it starts with being willing to believe. Forget the great wall of the past because the only difference between the ones who are great and the others is that they have the guts to call their shot.

Thinking Big Matters 

Thinking big is such a great deal, so pursue something worthwhile but make sure that what you chase what lights you on fire. Ask only yourself if it will still matter to you when you are in those dark moments. Work for something because it is good, not just because it stands a chance to succeed.

Therefore, know that, as a single individual, you can echo through this world. But that will never happen by pursuing something small or simply because it can win. It will only happen by chasing something that matters to you. So you have to think big and take your dreams seriously.

"The only way to find the limits of the possible is to go beyond them into the impossible." - Arthur C. Clarke

Yet, the world most people usually live in is so limited and defined by narrow perspectives that they are never able to shake that off, shape and build something the way they want to see it. So, do not be shaped by the bricks others have laid before you.

Putting Energy on the New 

You have the ability to go or do something new, and that is what defines you. So focusing on going beyond the possible is a critical thing for you to progress. The secret to change and achieve your goal is to focus, not on fighting the old, but on building the new. And by thinking big, it is what you do.

So, you have to put all of your energy on the new, and not what came before that or your past. You cannot spend your time in yesterdays, or feel safe in the bricks that others laid before you. If you do, you are unable to see the steps beyond the conventional.

Therefore, you have to be thinking big. And if you are willing to learn, challenge your beliefs, and push beyond the comforts you have; then an entirely new world awaits you. Today, so much information is available and at the tip of your fingers just by the click of a mouse on a computer.

Thinking Big Is a Great Deal 

It will help and allow you to create things in the world that simply did not exist. But how many people do that? How many even take the time to educate themselves? You must understand that you can change the future because it is not yet written.

So, employ your time in improving yourself with others' findings and writings so that you gain easily the knowledge that they worked hard to find. You need to think outside the box and get out of the world your family built you or that society told you is the way it is and always will be.

Once you look past that and understand that you can control your future, alter your belief system, and make changes to the dogma, then you are ahead of the crowd. So accept that when thinking big, ideas are not tools, they are instead weapons. And that is all about your attitude.

"Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference." - Winston Churchill

Able to Change the World 

And yes, the things that have real meaning for you are going to be hard. But you have to look at them, have faith, show up, push every day, and keep striving. And when you fall down, pick yourself back up and focus on what matters to you and not others. If you do that, every sacrifice in your life will be worth it. But if you do not, nothing you gained would have mattered.

If you can see yourself across the finish line, or at least advancing and making it a step closer to become real, you can transform it into a reality. The people who believe the impossible by thinking big, dreaming and the things that no one else is willing to talk about are those who are able to change the world.

And so, be like these crazy people which allow them to believe that against all the odds, something that yet does not exist can actually be a reality. Now, get outside the box knowing why thinking big is such a great deal and go make a world of difference.

Discover What's Already Inside of You That You Are NOT Using

You don't have to stay stuck in a job that you don't like. You don't have to live a life that is not in total alignment with your true desires. And you don't have to just rely on one source of income. You have phenomenal gifts and you were not born to sit on them you were born to share them. There are people who need and want your gift of inspiration and encouragement. There are people praying for you to show in their life. And there are people whose purpose is connected to your purpose.

We were all born with a unique gift to make a difference. And our unique qualities help us to stand out in a crowded world of others who are serving others. I believe that there are an abundance of gifts that you haven't even tapped into yet. I believe that God has purposed you to do something so amazing for humanity that it can catapult you into a new dimension of personal, professional, and financial success. Now we know that money is not everything, but money is a wonderful tool to do wonderful things for those you love and causes you care about.

Do you feel like you have something bubbling in you that is about to explode in a good way? Do you feel like you are under-utilizing your divine gifts? And do you desire to turn your passion and purpose into products and programs that can help others to succeed? There is a great chance that you can step into a career as a life coach and experience a life greater than you have ever imagined. And it will cost you less than a college degree and you don't have to have any specific experience, just a passion to help others, a story, be purpose-driven, and a heart to serve, encourage, and motivate others to achieve their goals and dreams. If you have a story or a testimony that has blessed your life, why not bless the life of others?

God didn't allow you to make it through what you have made it through to stay quiet. He empowered you so that you may empower others. No longer can we stay quiet. No longer can we sit on our gifts. And no longer can we put things off until tomorrow. The time to become a change agent is now. If you continue to wait, that is one more day that you are out of divine alignment, that is one more day that you are not serving those you are called to serve, and that is one more day that you are not living the life you were born to live.

Many of us know what we need to do but taking action to get it done must be implemented. Because nothing happens until you take action. You have the power to create change. So are you willing to do what needs to be done?

Message From the Universe: What Is Behind the Big Black Hole in Our Universe?

"Remember the joy you used to feel when you'd find a quarter in the street?

And how exciting it was when you got older and found a crumpled $20 bill in the pocket of a pair of jeans you hadn't worn in months?

Well, brace yourself, because the day isn't far off when in-between taking naps, swimming laps, or doing the routine happy dance, you'll be busy gathering documents for your tax return accountant and suddenly find a statement to a bank account you don't even remember opening, with more than enough money in it to do whatever your heart now longs to do, probably twice.

You do trip us out.

Sure enough, 

The Universe"

This is how you should feel everyday of your life, when anticipating that great things will come your way. It may not be in the form of a bank account that you opened years ago and suddenly accrued enough interest to allow you to get the mansion down the street you always dreamed off. As long as you feel like great things will happen in your life and believe that you worked very hard to make all this happen, the Universe will start listening and paying attention to what you do, how you behave or act, how you treat people, how you help others so that it can render the results you expect the most.It may be hard for you to believe the HOW it will happen, or the WHEN. This is NOT your responsibility as the Universe is capable of doing that without even blinking. The supernatural force we have up there is just like that, SUPERNATURAL. However, that force is a creation of your own mind, you own desires and dreams, rendering reality based on your thoughts and actions.

I agree that all of what you are reading at this moment may seem far fetch, but until you start believing that all of what you see around you is a part of a creation that all started from this ONE point of singularity to eventfully create the world we see today. Without going too far in the theory of general relativity or quantum mechanics, we need to figure out how it all started with the big bang. If nothing was there, who had the thought to create what we see today. Obviously, all this can only be a theory as we can't see that far out after the 13.1 billion of years but it is possible that if what we see today started from that one point in space, that single pea size energy bubble that exploded, we can also assume that before the big bang, we had a big crunch, OR that on the other side of a big black hole, there is another Universe waiting to be created after another Big Bang, hopefully not happening around our solar system or galaxy. As no one was ever able to survive going pass the event horizon and live to tell the tale, we may just assume what happens if anyone or anything crosses the event horizon (sphagettification can occur after you pass the event horizon). Let's keep it all to just theory, how about that?

The Curse of Complacency (and the Gift of Desperation)

One of the times where we can get stuck on our spiritual path is when everything seems to be going well. We have enough to get by, just not enough to achieve our desires.

We're not in complete survival, but we're not completely happy or satisfied. But we're so better off than (where we were, where others are, where we could be)...

It can actually be a pretty horrible place to exist. And people can stay here for years.

Complacency is like a big, goosedown duvet covering you and your life - on a warm, summer's day.

Sometimes we're stuck in complacency as a result of trauma. We're not really complacent, we're numb. We're afraid to move. We're terrified of risking our status quo.

A clue to being in this state is - how clear are your dreams and desires? When we're in fear, our vision for the future is a winning lotto ticket, prince charming, someone or something to instantly get you out of this situation.

When we're complacent, we may not even have dreams and desires, we're so disconnected from our essence. Everything looks just fine. What have we to complain about?

Sometimes, as Consciousness, we create an opportunity to break out of this state. Something disastrous happens. A betrayal, a layoff, an accident, a national disaster... it wakes us up.

Sometimes the opportunity creeps up on you, you develop an illness that forces you to tune into your body, a loved one's addiction is revealed, shattering your denial.

Desperation can be a gift, it gets us moving. It gives you the energy to start making positive changes. You can feel more alive in an emergency, because you're more fully present and alert.

And yet some people get addicted to the adrenalin rush of chaos and drama, and instead of breaking out of their rut they dig themselves in even deeper.

Complacency mustn't be confused with the neutrality of Consciousness. At the highest level of Consciousness, there is no good or bad, you're completely detached from pain of what is happening in the physical world. It's like viewing the planet from the International Space Station, you're just in awe of the beauty and wonder of the world.

As Consciousness, we provide opportunities to wake up, and no opinion if we choose to stay asleep. As Consciousness there's no time, so no judgement of how long it's taking.

However, our core purpose for being here is to experience life in the physical, and express ourselves as Consciousness. If we're numb with complacency or spinning our wheels in continual crisis we're not fully experiencing or expressing from Consciousness.

Now, when we're in our bodies as Consciousness, it feels good. We're enjoying ourselves. We inherently know it's a benevolent Universe. We're amused, we're curious, we're creative.

Our desires look different when we're creating our life as Consciousness. We don't need to be rich and famous. We are rich in relationship, we have prosperous lives.

Our own egos/personalities will hold us back, fearing that if Consciousness is in control, they will die. In truth, an aspect that we may have identified with will dissipate, but we will feel freer and more expansive afterwards.

When we operate as Consciousness, we achieve outcomes greater than old personalities could have imagined.

So if you're in complacency and reading this, know that you have an opportunity to wake up without waiting for a breakdown. You can have a 'high bottom'.

If you're in desperation, use this information to propel you forward to new choices and actions.

You don't have to know how to solve your problems or fix your situation, just take the first step towards the light. Intuitively step towards whatever feels lighter, brighter, clearer, more open. The light is You.

When you connect as Consciousness, you'll find that the answers and solutions have been in You all the time.

Make Peace With Your Dream

Often, when we are told to "make peace with" something, it's in a challenging context, as in "make peace with" your current weight, bank account, relationship, etc. And indeed, the only way to move forward toward whatever your desired goal is to first make peace with wherever you're at in that journey. So yes, by all means, do that!

But the one "make peace with" we rarely think about is to "make peace with your dreams." Too often, we dismiss our dreams and desires as too far-fetched, impossible, unreachable, and we stop before we start. Or we start, and then halfway there we figure, "Oh, this is ridiculous; I'll never make it" so we give up on our dreams.

Don't do that to yourself! Did you know that what makes for success--at anything and everything--is the dynamite combination of passion and perseverance? It's what researcher Angela Duckworth PhD calls "grit," sometimes thought of as "great results in time." No one exemplifies passion plus perseverance better than Jahkee Johnson. Jahkee was born with shortened legs and deformities in his knees and ankles, which caused both legs to be amputated when he was just an infant. But Jahkee had a passion; he wanted to play in his high school's marching band, and he wanted to play--of all things--the tuba.

Now, most would say "impossible"! A tuba is a big heavy instrument, and how is a boy going to march without legs, much less play the tuba and march at the same time? But Jahkee made peace with his dream. He knew what he wanted, and he was sure he was going to make it happen. Period. With that kind of determination, you can guess the rest of the story. At 15, Jahkee began marching in his high school's band with the help of padded shoes so he can walk right along with his bandmates, first with a tuba and now a trombone. Sure, it took a few weeks for him to get the hang of the shoes and the marching, but what the heck?! That's the nature of perseverance.

What's the dream you've given up on? I'm not talking about a whim, or an idle fantasy, as in "I want to be a millionaire"--who doesn't? A passion would be "I want to be a millionaire. I have ideas worth the time and effort and creativity it takes to succeed at my dream." So what's the dream you have, with passion behind it, that you need to make peace with in order to succeed?

Because once you do that, once you make peace with your dream, you can draw on the energy of the Universe to persist until you make that dream come true. Here's to your success!

Three Simple Techniques to Manifest Your Dreams (By Fria Grace Estrella)

Have you heard about law of attraction? Many people even well-known personalities such as Jack Canfield, Joe Vitale and Bob Proctor talked about this law in their movie "The Secret." The law of attraction tells us that the universe or "Infinite Intelligence" is helping us materialize what we wish for. Just like law of gravity, whenever an apple falls from the tree it will definitely go down on the earth because of an unseen force we call gravity. This law also supports that there is an unseen great force that's out there which conspire to make your dreams a reality.

In order to benefit from this, there are simple techniques that you can perform to help you realize your dreams in life.

1) Ask, Believe and Receive - You need to ask what your desires are. After asking, you need to believe that you can achieve these desires. You need to focus your thoughts and efforts on these beliefs. You may have it in no time or have it in a long time but the third step is to receive these desires.

The first technique supports the saying "what the mind of a man can conceive, the body can achieve".

2) Creative Visualization - Others call this technique "auto-suggestion". This technique is more effective when you perform in the morning and in the evening before you sleep. In your quite time, you vividly imagine that you have achieved the things that you desire. In your imagination, you feel the exact feelings of having these things in reality.

3) Having a vision board - In the movie, "The Secret", a man who transferred to their new house is unpacking his things, then, he realized that their new house was one of the pictures on his vision board (he made few years back) that he pulled out from a box. A vision board is a collection of pictures of the things you dream of. You may also put some inspiring and empowering quotes on it.

But I want to end this by sharing this saying," Wealth consists not in having great possessions but in having few wants". Remember that simplicity, generosity and frugality also good traits of oneself.

Disclaimer: I am a believer of this "Law of Attraction" and not an expert of this thing. Honestly, I haven't realized yet my own vision board but I strongly believe that dreaming, planning and taking action really works.

7 Ways To Make Affirmations Work For You

Nearly every individual who has ever trained others in personal development and self-help, has emphasized using affirmations to enhance one's positive attitude. Perhaps the best way for us to think about an affirmation is merely by looking at the word affirm in the route of that word, and to understand that unless one uses positive, present tense terminology and statements, he is not truly affirming anything that will have any sort of significant impact. In my over three decades of involvement in leadership training and personal development/ self-worth, I have consistently stressed that affirmations are an extremely important, proactive behavior, that often makes a significant difference in one's mindset and attitude, it only gets the most desirable result when these statements are personal, present tense, and stated in a positive manner. If you want to make them work to your optimal benefit, here are 7 Ways to Make Affirmations Work For You.

1. Make your affirmations personally meaningful. Don't merely state things that you believe to be either politically correct, what others do (or you believe expect of you), overly general, or of less than directly relevant to what most matter to you. They will have little impact if they are not statements related to what concerns you, you care about, or will have the desirable impact of motivating you to persist and persevere towards the goals you seek.

2. Always use positive statements. For example, those that look to lose weight, should avoid saying things like, "I'm going to go on a diet," or "I will lose weight," or even worse, "I will look better than I do now." Rather, state it in a more positive way, such as, "My sleek, fit body, makes me feel better, and perform to the best of my abilities."

3. Make your list of affirmations no less than five items, nor more than ten. Each must be personally essential and relevant, and you must really care about these things deeply. Think about what matters most to you, and how you can become the best you can be, and then base your affirmations on those needs or desires.

4. Write them down. The mere act of putting things to paper is a significant, impactful first step in enhancing your positive attitude and behaviors. In addition, doing this, makes it far more important and relevant.

5. Read your personal affirmation list aloud (in private), to yourself, preferably in front of a mirror (so you can look yourself in the eye and truly come to believe your words). Some believe they can't accept stating things in a positive way, and in the present, when that is not yet the case, but it is important to realize that only when your mind comes to believe and accept that you are that way, will the end result occur! You must do this, every day, at least three times per day.

6. Commit to do this every single day, and make it an imperative component of your daily routine.

7. Re-visit your list every 30 days, evaluate your progress, and tweak your Affirmations, to address your evolving needs. Once you begin with using these, it is essential that you continue the process, continuously and seriously, for at least twelve months.

Don't treat this process as a mere exercise or some sort of philosophy. Rather, use these 7 Ways to Make Affirmations Work For You!

What Are You Searching For?

I have not yet met anyone in my world travels who didn't want a little more inner peace. And, I have never encountered anyone who would trade a little money to rid themselves of their stress and worries.

So, is this what each of us is secretly or overtly searching for? Well, to be truthful I'm not sure. People who say they want less stress continue to pursue wealth, fame, power, position and more stuff. People who say they want to be happy often seem to sabotage this goal with poor choices, bad judgment and emotional immaturity. And people who say they want more inner peace still harbor old emotional baggage, replay old slights and hurts and let other people control their behaviors, attitudes, emotions and even their thoughts.

If we are truly searching for any or all the items listed above one would have to wonder whether we are just giving lip service to these goals, desires and dreams or if we really want them but just don't seem to know where to find them, how to achieve them or how to keep them.

I too have been guilty. I am just like you in that I would like a little more happiness and a little less stress yet when it comes to doing what is necessary I often fall short.

Sure, I have read all the books, hundreds and hundreds of them, attended the seminars, had personal coaches, spent hours and even weeks setting and planning my personal goals and dreams and spent more hours than I can remember praying and meditating and yet, here I sit from time to time, still questioning whether all this reading, study and searching is worthwhile.

During my years of study, research and searching I have come to a few conclusions.

1) Many of the people who supposedly have it figured out, don't.

2) Many of the people who preach and teach this stuff to others and get paid handsomely to do so, don't have a clue.

3) Some of the people who you would least expect to have the answers often do.

4) Even many of the religious fanatics, diehards or steadfast believers in God still struggle with the same issues, questions and challenges as those who have never set foot in a church or Synagogue or read the Bible.

Why is this? Are we doomed as a species to just search and never find or discover the true meaning of our life or as the title says, why we are we here?

Humans have been asking for centuries; why am I here, where am I going and what am I supposed to do with my life while I am here?

One could get easily discouraged and feeling a little sorry for themselves spending years contemplating simple questions like these.

Have you ever asked yourself any of these searching questions whether in times of doubt or discouragement or happiness and contentment? Success or failure? Do you have any answers yet, or are you like most of us, that you just keep on trudging ahead through life one day at a time just earning, spending, working and playing?

Living The Life You Want Is Possible

You dream of a better existence but yet, you do not know how to create the life you want. Ideas and desires float in your mind, but you doubt your power to transform the life you imagine into a reality because you feel that you are living under circumstances that seem to make it impossible.

But think for an instant. What about all the electronics around you? What about traveling through the air? What about the electricity you switch on and off? How do you believe they originate?

Almost everything you use on a daily basis is the direct result of someone's idea, dream, desire or thought. Even the bed you sleep on, the umbrella you open when it rains or the clothes you wear.

You are a co-creator in this Universe! All of us do possess such an inner power. Most people do not realize that they can, in fact, create the life they want. Some people do not even take the time to think about what they want. And others have ideas of the life they want but do nothing about it.

People, who do know, however, think about ten years ahead and beyond, no matter what their current age. You should reflect on the choices you make and what the future looks like as they will have an impact on you and your family based on what you do today.

Imagination is the Beginning of Creation

What most people seem to overlook often is that the things you are using each day were shaped at first in someone's imagination.

"Imagination is everything. It is a preview of life's coming attractions" - Albert Einstein.

You have an incredible capacity to use your imagination which means that you already have in you all that it takes to generate what you want in life! Most people do not use this ability. As a child, you have enjoyed daydreaming and used your imagination to make belief, even if school teachers reprimanded you for doing such things.

But since the dawn of time, how many people have used their imagination to become designers, inventors, writers, and life changers to create new things. Without them, where would we be?

Today, most adults have forgotten their creative side, and very few use their imagination to envision the life they want and create it. Since my toddler years, I have been a dreamer, and yet, for a few years while in my forties, I had given up.

Rarely is a person telling you to dream of the life you want and making it happen? So do not be afraid to believe in your dreams, even the big ones, because you, I and this entire world are creative beings by nature.

Attracting What You want

It is hard to bypass the law of attraction when it comes to creating the life you want. It is perhaps one of the most known laws of the universe. It speaks of you having the aptitude to attract things and make them based on the energy frequencies that you are producing.

What you focus on expands, so the more you align yourself with the vibration of what you want to attract, the more likely it is to manifest in your life. When you begin sending out a particular energy frequency that is aligned with your higher self, it then attracts seamless opportunities and conditions into your life.

To generate what you want, you need to determine your desires and define what you are looking for. You have to focus on what needs to be done and figure out what kind of skills to cultivate.

If beginning now, you decide to imagine the life you would like to live and focus on it each minute, obsessed by it with each breath of your being, then one day you will find yourself living it. Do you still have doubts? I am a living proof of it! It already happened three times in my life, and it is going on again.

Your mind works exactly in the same way as mine because your imagination begins in the same place. It is a mental muscle that you need to activate. So no matter what you believe, you already possess the capacity to use this creativity of yours to build the life you want.

Watch the video "Live the life you want" by Jack Canfield.

Stop Envisaging What You Don't Want

Look at what you are and where you are now, your life, job, revenue and even relationship, and understand that it is a direct consequence of the image of yourself you hold in your mind.

Consciously or unconsciously, you are visualizing all the time, you have 65,000 thoughts a day, but if you are not living the life you want, it means that you are visualizing much more often what you don't want rather than what you want.

So, if you are not happy with your current life and what is in it, then start to imagine what you do want so you can get better opportunities to improve your life and create what you want.

Are there ways to activate your imagination to create the life you want?

Yes, there are!

Activating Your Imagination

To begin with, go to a quiet place and sit down. Imagine you are living a life which you desire. Look at what you want? Do not put any limits or restrictions. Think big. Go crazy.

Do not even think about time and money. Do not wonder if you will succeed. At this instant, only allow yourself to daydream. Is it strange?

Why, remember, flying was considered impossibility not so long ago. The reason a plane flies through the air is that the Wright brothers, like many before, dreamed of flying. Did they know how to create flight when they began with their ideas? Of course not!

When you have imagined the life you want, write it out on a piece of paper as if you are already living it. It means writing down your dream life in the present tense as if it is happening right now.

Now, out loud, read your story and do this every single day. While reading, you must feel that you are living that life here and now, and feel happy and grateful about it.

It is all about your ability to make this routine a daily habit that will generate great rewards! Know that you are using a powerful skill which is the power of your imagination to bring into reality the life you want, in the same way, other successful people did.

Tips to Create the Life You want

It is time to create and live the life you have always imagined and wanted. So here are some tips:

• Take the time to sit down and ask yourself what you want in all aspects of life.
• Visualize your ideal world and get it down in writing.
• Be specific and clear about what you want to achieve.
• Set big goals and do not stop till you get there.
• Create a path to get there and do the work.
• Take massive action which will create changes for you to live the life that you dream of.
• Say no and do not settle for what you have.
• Push yourself for what you want.
• Stick to your goals.
• Put aside distractions such as social media, nights out partying or buying futile items.
• Focus on the things that you want rather than what you do not want.
• Remember you are good enough.
• Remind yourself that you have the skills and abilities to do it.
• Do the work each day.
• Remember that reality takes time, work and effort to change.
• Stay positive.
• Take time to be by yourself to reconnect with what you want.
• Ask yourself if you are on the right path.
• Understand you will experience failure and setbacks.
• Keep moving forward.
• Use money wisely and creatively to create the future you want.

Remember that if you want to be a person who lives the life they wanted, you need to create it by following the above advice. I do not want you to wake up one day and feeling like you have regrets. Many people believe that it is impossible to have their dream life, but it is possible to create the life you want. Now, it is up to you to decide!

The Meaning of Abundance

We all want to enjoy life, have great relationships, achieve our goals and be loved. We subscribe to websites, read articles and books looking for the one answer that will give us everything we desire.

The truth is you already know at some level of your being...

Knowing the meaning of abundance can help clarify what you think you don't know and are still looking for. So what does abundance mean in relation to our desires? If you've been on the internet searching for how to attract abundance you must first understand what it is before you can attract it.

Abundance is not a thing it is a way of being. If I've lost anyone here let me explain further. Abundance is access to an infinite supply of energy. I say energy because everything is energy from your physical toys to your physical body. From your thoughts to your emotions.

With your present understanding of abundance and why you are reading this article ask yourself what type of abundance you are seeking. Are you seeking the real meaning of abundance to better understand and evolve or one of the following:

· If you are seeking material abundance such as more toys, a better house or more money then these can be obtained by following one way.

· If you are seeking relationship abundance such as more friends, better relationships in your personal or business life then these can be obtained by following one way.

· If you are seeking health abundance such as more energy, more weight loss success, more emotional breakthroughs then these can be obtained by following one way.

Everything we are seeking we already are. We are everything we desire. What most people won't or can't accept due to previous programming is that everything we seek is outside of us. It's not. It's part of us.

You are seeking abundance in some form but you are looking in the wrong place or seeing it in the wrong perspective. You are made of energy as is everything on this planet and in the universe as we know it. We are all connected to each other energetically which explains why psychics read minds and telekinesis is possible. We haven't all developed our natural abilities because most of us can't or won't open ourselves to what we can really do. What we really are.

Abundance is your true nature. It is what you were created from. It is who you are now. Why you can't get what you want is because of what you think or believe daily. I can't stress this enough. We have been programmed with thoughts and feelings since the womb. We heard conversations of lack, violence, positivity and hope. We have picked up and been programmed with these dialogues and they are part of us. But we now know how to turn all this negative, self defeating energy into the energy we desire to have.

This is our new stage of evolution

The evolution we are experiencing right now sees people having massive shifts in lifestyle from poverty to wealth, from lives of taking to lives of giving and healings that seem miraculous.

These are not miracles. they are people who have shifted their perspective on how they view life and are now an energetic match to their true self. Their true self being part of the abundance of the universe. We are all capable of making this match but the first step is opening your mind.

I love the quote by Thich Nhat Hanh

"For things to reveal themselves to us we need to be ready to abandon our views about them"

Abandon all preconceived beliefs and notions about how things are supposed to be and see them in a new light. Let situations and people reveal themselves to you and accept what is shown without judgement.

Your present thoughts and beliefs are forming your reality right now. Try the exercise of no mind or observation when your old thoughts creep into your mind. These are not the truth but conditioned patterns that are keeping you from your greatness, your abundance, your wholeness.

The energy from which you are created holds the abundance you desire. Accept the true nature of who you are and open up to your abundance. Abundance is being one with creation which is everything.

If what you are is everything then when we are seeking everything/abundance we are really seeking ourselves

We are really seeking wholeness, completeness and the connection to ourselves. We already have it. We just need to accept it as fact, know it and live by it.

You have been conditioned to disconnection from your wholeness. Reconnecting will take time and commitment so you must be willing to do what it takes.

Try these simple exercises:

• ·Visualize yourself in a boat on a river. Think about something you desire. Do negative thoughts or feelings occur? You are paddling upstream going against the flow of life - resistance, putting in effort
• Think something about the situation that makes you smile, happy or joyful. Your boat is now floating downstream without work in the easy flow of life - abundance
• Whenever one of your preconditioned thoughts comes into your head observe it without judgement. Just observe it until it disappears. This is the practice of observing the ridiculous. I find myself laughing at some of the still existing lies that come to the surface
• We believe we are right about everything. We are right about everything in our life but we don't know what's right for anyone else. If you tend toward correcting others just know that it's OK to believe what you want. No one has to agree with you. And vice versa.

These are just a few simple exercises to get you out of the flow of resistance and into the ease and flow of your true self.

The key to getting the abundance we desire is letting a whole new way of thinking and accepting ourselves and others to prevail. We are evolving and there are massive changes taking place. Your work is to integrate yourself into this new way of being. Everyone is responsible for doing their own work to achieve it.

You're on this site looking for answers. I did not seek you out and say you must think this way. Such is the way of the seeker. You cannot force your beliefs on others. When others seek answers they find you. Offer what you know to these seekers without expectation that they must or will listen you.

I hope this offers some clarity on your search for abundance.

Abundance comes from within not from without.

Manifesting Abundance-Whats all the fuss-5 practical points to use.

When "The Secret" introduced the laws of attraction and manifestation, I jumped in feet first.  Caught up in the whirlwind of  the  manifestation phenomenon, I was hooked. I could just see all of it---- My new house, the millions of dollars, new cars, clothes.  You know how it goes....  So, patiently I waited....and waited...and nothing happened.

What went wrong!  The laws of attraction stated that if I visualized, I would see the manifesting of my desires come to be.  

Well, they didn't. :~( 

Secretly disappointed, I filed the thought in the back of my mind as I slipped back to my old ways of thinking about abundance, and prosperity.  Obviously, it wasn't mine to have.  The universal laws waved as they passed me by. Good-bye hopes and dreams.  

But, I didn't entirely abandon the ideology.  The magic of the manifestation concept keep peeking at me, and I was intrigued. There was a piece of the puzzle that I was missing, I just wasn't seeing it.  So began my journey. I asked myself, Really, what is manifestation.

This is what I learned.

    1.    We attract and manifest abundance  every day.  It is not a magicians trick.  It is something that happens every day to each and every one of us.  Just look around your environment and ask yourself: Of all the possessions I own, which one of them was manifested?  Well I am telling you all of them!!!

    2.    Manifestation is the result of our desire, or intent to have or possess.  In our desire we manifest.  I desired the truck I drive, the beautiful farm I call home, my wonderful husband, the rich and beautiful life I live. 

    3.    The lack of manifestation is only dictated by the limits we put on ourselves though our beliefs.

    4.    Manifestation will occur  without fail if,  and only if, we give energy to the end result and work(take action) towards the goal.

    5.    Sometimes it just isn't that easy.  Getting there requires trial and error.  Expect bumps in the road.  Its just the way it is. 

Lets be realistic about manifestation. Look the word up in the dictionary.   Manifest - to make clear or evident-reveal. Somehow I believe that we all have misconceptions about manifesting abundance.  The laws of the universe do work, but don't forget, they have to penetrate our thick heads and work with the laws of our minds.  The objective  is to understand how they work together.  Take some time to analyze your thought and believes.  Sometimes it takes a little guidance to figure out how your mind works.  I will venture to guess that what holds you back is just a simple tweak on your part. 

The thought I want to leave with you is--- manifesting abundance starts with you.  You are the choreographer of your destinyComputer Technology Articles, no one else.

Don't Waste Your Final Years On Being Old (By Tim Connor)

As you read this I'm not sure how you define old so I won't disappoint you by giving you my age (although many of you know it) but let's assume "old" for many people is defined after they hit sixty?

I'm sure many of you are so young you can't even imagine yourself that old and I'll bet many of you older than sixty never imagined you would be this old. Therefore, you have no interest in this article - but beware - you will be there before you know it. Just ask most of the older folks you know and I'll bet most of them will admit that the years have passed by so fast they couldn't even keep track of them.

So, I'm not going to try and convince you folks under sixty that you should wake up and smell the roses - you've heard it all before but I am going to focus on why most older folks need to spend less time being old and more time being young. 

Old - Having lived or existed for a relatively long time; far advanced in years or life. Relatively advanced in age. (What's a relatively long time? My addition).

FYI - The current average life span in America is - 77.6 years. S_____ I'm almost there. Oh well, back to my article.

Why do so many people let their age define their lifestyle, attitudes, behavior or even their goals and dreams? I could give you hundreds of examples of people throughout history who didn't really start to hit their stride until they were over sixty and many into their seventies and even eighties?

I'm sure you know many people who are old or older. You may even be one of them. Some of you may be getting to ready to retire this year or looking forward to retirement in the near future. Want a scary statistic? The current average life span of the average retiree at age 65 is 5-7 years. Yes, many people make it to ninety and some pass away at 66 but the average is only a few short years and why?

Because these folks lose their reason for living, being and even surviving. There is no more reason to get up every day - why bother - it will just be the same ole same ole. Sad.

I'm certainly not at all or in any way belittling retirement, however it just isn't in my vocabulary or DNA so here I sit typing away (at 20 words per minute).

You've probably heard the line - how old would you be if you didn't know how old you were? My mentor Mark Twain was once asked by a reporter, Mr. Twain how old are you and his response (so just Mark Twainish) was "My age is none of my business."

The day I read that - that became one of my many life mantras. Age is a number and old age is a big number.

What I really want to ask you is - how are you defining your life as the years creep up on you? Slowing down? Speeding up? Starting new stuff? Letting go of dreams, goals and desires? Not sure what to do next? So many questions and so little time.

Here's the right question - what are you going to do with the years you have left before it's too late... think about it!

You Only Have Three Choices

I know what you are thinking - three choices about what? No, I'm not a psychic, but the title is basically saying in life we generally have three choices when it comes to decisions, actions and behavior. Consider - A job offer? (three choices) Start a new relationship? (three choices) End a relationship? (three choices) Move? Invest? Retire? Start a business? Sell something? Buy something? (three choices).

See where I/m going with this? Not yet? OK, how about you are sitting in one of my seminars and as I share my ideas, approaches, solutions etc. you sit there thinking - this guy is an idiot or - he is a genius or - I'm not sure where he is going with this, but I'll give him a little more time? (Three choices). Ever been there? There now with a decision that needs to be made or an option you are considering that needs action?

I'm not trying to make something difficult or challenging seem simple or trite but ask you to look at most of life's choices in a more practical way rather than what I hear so often "It's complicated!"

What I'd like to share in this brief article is what contributes to which position we take based on the title regardless of what we are facing, dealing with or has come into our life unexpectedly - do we resist - say no, accept - say yes or consider - say I'll think about it?

Yes, I could go on for pages and there are thousands of books that address this issue but let me give you my short version. (say yes!! 

Why we say no (resist) - sure we all know about the impact fear has on our life, decisions and actions but have you ever considered what fake fear (yes borrowing a line from politics - but it applies here) has on your actions? What is fake fear - it's simply stuff that doesn't warrant real fear in the present, but for whatever reason we talk ourselves into being fearful. Should I ask her/him out? Should I ask for a raise?

Should I _______? There are literally hundreds if not thousands of - should I's or should I not's - that we don't or do - do because of the impact of self-generated fear. (Yes, I just made that up). We convince ourselves that there is real (emotional or physical) danger with or without this action or decision. And where does this come from? I'll tell you - 10 years of early mental and emotional (and sometimes physical) conditioning given to you by your early environment (parents, teachers, friends, relatives etc.). They drilled into you - you can't, you shouldn't, you won't, you will never, and you know what - you are still hearing those messages no matter how subtle or distant. You are still behaving according to their rules, guidance or expectations. Enough - that was years ago - you are a new you - turn them off, let them go and no longer give them power over your life.

Why we say yes (accept) - we all have real and imaginary desires, goals, dreams and hopes and we really want them. Some we work hard to achieve while others remain in our "I hope someday" column but that's what they are - hopes or dreams that we want, think we want, believe we want etc. Ever had someone give you a special present you didn't ask for, expect or deserve? Did you refuse it? Return it?

Probably not because deep inside you feel/believe you are worthy of it, deserve it or want it even though you didn't even know it existed. Ever had a conversation with someone where all you did was keep nodding yes, saying - yeah or just keep agreeing with everything they uttered? Where did this come from? Read the above example (resist) again but this time just replace the fear and negative stuff with positive stuff - you know why - because the outcome has the same contributor or source - what you were taught, instructed, guided, conditioned etc. to believe before you were eleven years old. Try it.

I'll do one for you. "Name" - have you ever thought about starting your own business?" "You know I always have but just didn't know what the best time would be, or circumstances were - to begin." "What are you waiting for?" OK - here comes either the fake fear or the fake optimism - you will either convince yourself that now is the time (say yes - accept) or feel uncertain (say no - resist). Or, the next camp which is to say - maybe (I'll think about it). Think about something in your life right now where you are either in camp one (resisting) or camp two (accepting). What's contributing to the thoughts, feelings, emotions or actions? And where are these coming from?

Why we say maybe (I'll consider) - If you are still with me - I'm sure you know where I am going with the third option or choice. Yes, you're right - the maybe or I'll consider it - is a mix of both camp one and camp two above and you just are not sure at this point which way to go. Well, let me tell you if you aren't sure which way will be your final verdict. Whichever is the strongest in your mind, (you can't or won't lessons or can and will ones) history and experience will ultimately sway or convince you to go in that direction.

So, you have some no's in your past, but you also have some yes's there also. I'll leave you with a final question - you are considering something new or different (what should I do or say) you already know which way you want to go (and even will go) and you are just waiting to receive, feel or experience enough validation, evidence, proof or confirmation to admit your decision, choice or action. Am I right?

Think about it.

What Is Luck and How Are Hunches Linked to It?

The question is what is luck? Is there such a thing or is it something that results from our response to a hunch? In other words, are we led by some internal power to do something at a specific time that will result in what we might call 'good fortune'? What determines who sits in a seat in a vehicle that crashes and one is killed and the other is not? Or why buy a lottery ticket on the spur of the moment that ultimately wins a prize?

Is it 'luck' as driven by a mystical supernatural force or it simply that it was going to happen and the one experiencing it just happened by chance to be there or to buy the ticket? Over centuries of trying to resolve this issue man has got no closer than that many will risk all to have a chance at being the next one to chance on the right situation at that time.

To answer the questions is to go deeper into the reason why we are here and what happens to each of us during our lives. After my reincarnation and with a strong link to the Spirit of the Universe it is my opinion that everyone is part of a plan. We are like puppets in a massive collection of players and every one of us serves a purpose. That means that what happens to us is part of the overall scene.

We might ask some tough questions in response to our probe into this topic. For instance why would I remember reincarnation when religions don't and others don't concur with it? Some feel they have been around before, others get flashbacks of past lives, still others have no feeling about it whatsoever and they don't believe in life-after-death anyway.

What about a hunch? Is that linked to luck and why are some things we suddenly do without thought can turn us into a genius or a millionaire? Why do some get a hunch to go shoot people in a public place? Or to stay away from something that will result in many being killed.

My link to the Spirit has shown me that it is the very thing we are talking about. It controls our moods, actions, desires, and where we are at any given time. The idea of luck removes the power from God to something that few can relate to but all know exists. If there is a plan in place to bring the world to a point of conclusion than it stands to reason that the players are given the ideas on which they act to bring it about.

We are in an extremely volatile world where anything can happen and bombs are exploding on a daily basis. People are fleeing conflicts and the old systems are failing. This is something written about many centuries past so it is nothing to do with luck or hunches but in my mind is the Spirit of the Universe.
