Keep Flowing

BeautifulWaterStream 300x186 Keep FlowingDear friend,

I hope you’re good today. Life is a beautiful journey. However, at times it can be very challenging. It’s human nature to want to advance, to create, to serve, to live in better surroundings and to advance in our activities. There is nothing wrong with desiring a better life. This is healthy! Some spiritual teachers will argue by saying that to desire is the route of all suffering however, to not want to desire, is a desire in itself. So, let’s not fall for the misnomer of pretending we don’t want a better life.

The reality is this: to gain anything worthwhile for the long haul takes a lot of intelligent work (actions) and of course, perseverance. Sadly, millions of people spend hours dreaming, thinking and talking about what they want in life. However, thinking and talking isn’t enough. Action is required. Unfortunately, when these people start to put in the action and come up against their “perceived” obstacles, they quit.

If we investigate anyone who has contributed something special to the human experience and manifested their hearts’ dreams, quitting was never an option. They came up against countless obstacles and challenges and perhaps they had to change their game plan (strategy) along the way, however, they kept on trying until eventually it paid off.

I’m sure that you have at least one example in your own experience when you made a decision to go for something and never gave up. Within a reasonably short period of time, you made it happen. It worked!!!

Having a persistent attitude is no different from working out on a particular muscle in the gym. If you continue to work out, your muscles will continue to be strong. If you stop, however, the human muscles weaken. This is exactly the same with our attitudes towards life. We can, through habit, learn to cultivate a positive attitude that embraces challenges rather than fearing them.

The next time you come up against a challenging moment, pause and take several deep breaths. Breathe deeply and pay attention to the rhythm of your breathing (this is called meditation). You will instantly feel a sense of calm and peace within. Once you are feeling serene, move swiftly into action. Never take an action or make a decision when feeling anxious or worried.

Our source of supply isn’t the Federal Reserve

crater lake 1 300x225 Our source of supply isn’t the Federal Reserve

Dear friend,

In recent weeks, there has been much talk of a lack of supply for humanity due to the economic climate in Europe and in the United States of America. This is a misnomer. Our source of supply doesn’t come from the Federal Reserve. It comes from the Laws of Cause and Effect (Sowing & Reaping), which every human being is subject to. We hear much of lack of money in society but once again this is a fallacy. First of all, money is not paper notes or credit cards or numbers on a screen. Money is an idea – thoughts in our consciousness. For instance, if we stopped using paper notes as legal tender, even if you had £1,000,000 in notes, they would become worthless. What has changed? It’s the value that we put on things that creates money (which is a medium of exchanging value). What would happen if we decided that we should no longer use gold as the central component to our economy and instead use silver? Immediately, silver would become worth more. How would that be possible? It would be possible through our thoughts, feelings and ideas. When we decide that something is valuable, this is created in our minds. Consider seriously that once upon a time, oil was known as a dirty liquid and was of no use until a handful of men decided that it could be used as a great medium of exchange.

As for the Federal Reserve, they may be able to print “money out of thin air” however, we decide whether the trillions that they print, with no gold as back up (they use secret bonds instead) are worth anything. We, as human beings, create “money” or “value” or “medium of exchange” in our consciousness, through our thoughts, feelings and ideas. The credit, debit cards and notes that we own are not money. They merely represent it. Now seeing that it is us as human beings who create and decide what is valuable through our ideas, then we must say that the source of money (our source of supply) is deep within us. We are the creators of the medium of exchange. The banks, like everything else, are simply manifestations of our ideas, which we create in our minds. As we collectively agree on a new medium of exchange, we tap into a collective cosmic consciousness, which then becomes a super power. This power (God inspiring creative thinking) is our source of supply.

Seeing that less than 1% of the worlds finance is backed up in gold, silver, oil, notes and coins, you have nothing to fear. Most of the trillions of dollars in the world never existed in the first place. So the next time you hear that a bank has lost billions of dollars, remember that 99% of what they have in value doesn’t and hasn’t actually ever existed (in physical form). It was our ideas and beliefs in the 99% that kept it going. And if we have that much power to support 99% of something that never existed, we can surely find a new way of keeping prosperity consciousness alive.
