How Exquisitely the Individual Mind to the External World is Fitted

How Exquisitely the Individual Mind to the External World is Fitted

Or....

If you want something bad enough.

How much do you want abundance? Want is an interesting word as it implies a lack, so how much do you really choose abundance, are you simply a powerless player in the sacred drama of your life or do you get to rewrite the script, change the story, bring harmony between you desires and your experience? As Jay Kubassek stated in a recent webinar: An excuse is anything that stands between your current lifestyle and what it is you choose (or words to that effect) you have to decide that you are not going to tolerate your own excuses. Some of what Jay said reminded me a little of Don Miguel Ruiz and his work the Four Agreements

Writer of the Four Agreements
Writer and Spiritual Philosopher  

Agreement 1

Be Impeccable with your Word - I understand that being impeccable with your word towards your readers and (potential) clients is vital for success but surely being impeccable to your own word for yourself is even more important - you have decided to go for success - it is not your individual circumstances that prevent you, it is the addiction to the next million dollar idea adrenalin, the need for escape/pleasure/ the path of least resistance that leads you down that blind alley. Be impeccable to your own word follow through on your game plan!

Agreement 2

Don't Take Anything Personally - I understand that this agreement was referring to what others say and do, however in the context of this blog I wanted to make this following point: The Universe works the way that the Universe works, it is not personal! Everyone is challenged by discipline and the difficulty of maintaining focused thought. Yet it is the way to alter reality in a Holographic Universe.

Agreement 3

Don't Make Assumptions - Find the courage to ask questions, the new generation of marketing that seeks permission from, and listens to (potential) clients is the path of discipline itself. It requires that you build a relationship over time, have an ongoing conversation, with consumers. Communicate with others, yourself and the Universe as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstanding, sadness and drama. With just this one agreement you can completely transform your life.

Agreement 4

Always Do Your Best - As Jay says, if you want something bad enough you will figure it out! When you awake in the morning do what you have to do first, do the work, circumstantial things (excuses) have no relevance, pleasure is irrelevant. Live your message to you the Universe for as you know seeing is not believing, believing is seeing.

Mind and the external world

How exquisitely the individual mind to the external world is fitted...and how exquisitely too...the external world is fitted to the mind

What If...Meta Politics

 What If...Meta Politics

Who Holds Responsibility For The Reality That You Experience?

In his book 2 days with Seth Godin, Tom Morkes quotes Godin as saying:
Be remarkable. Be memorable. Be something and do something that many people will hate and that others can't live without
This is the motivation for my thinking today, for surely the most powerful gift a person can be given is the power and responsibility for the building of personal experience and reality, but yet the most threatening, challenging thing that I can do is ultimately take responsibility for the creation of everything and all I experience.

What If...Meta Politics...

I Am The Whole Reality Of Everything That I Experience.

Seeing ourselves as mere skin encapsulated beings and nothing beyond is only one level of perception. The problem with that level of perception of course is that it is always in and of it self dis- empowering. It dis- empowers precisely because if all reality happens outside of you your ability to fundamentally alter it is extremely limited.

What if...

as Alan Watts the British Philosopher and Spiritual Teacher says:

Alan Watts
You are something that the whole universe is doing in the same way that a wave is something that the whole ocean is doing.
Consider this video:
   

What If...

By altering your perceptions and your actions you could experience abundance in a way that felt clean and holistic and felt like you were contributing to the potential domino effect of the collective human consciousness as it fully realizes itself as abundant.
Meta Politics
What are Meta Politics? Meta is a Greek preposition meaning after, beyond, adjacent, self.  However in English and other Greek owing languages 'Meta'  is used to indicate a concept which is an abstraction from another concept used to complete or add to another. To put this simply then I am talking of Politics in the abstract, what it means to be political. Politics appears to be organised around different and competing ideas about the distribution of resources, and the expression of ethics. Often it expresses fear of lack and manifests as an inability to provide for all. Politics expresses itself as a mass denial of responsibility, everything that is perceived as wrong is someone else's fault (another political party, a leader, a union, the ruling class etc). It is dualistic as it sets people against each other in a never ending debate that rarely reaches a conclusion. Politics is a cultural story of national and international consciousness, it takes from its norms and religions concepts of right and wrong and imposes variations of themes over and over again expressing them as reality.
What if...
  1. I see political leaders as an expression of national and international consciousness of which my mind and perceptions and inextricably linked?
  2. I see political problems world wide as an extension of what I need to heal within?
  3. The only solution to political difficulties at whatever level start with the spiritual and emotional journey of reaching my potential in every area of my life?
  4. By reaching my spiritual/emotional potential I am the stone that causes the ripples of change in the pond of collective human consciousness?
  5. The Mystics are right and the whole universe is just the expression of mind, we change our mind we change our experience?
What if... What if... What if... you have a dream to create a new life, tell a new story of yourself, create financial freedom, you need to follow your dream....Click on my website below. I will return again soon with more ideas relating to your success. Steve Wilkes

Thoughts on Creativity and New Neural Pathways

Thoughts on Creativity and New Neural Pathways

Major_parts_of_the_brain 

   A paper published by researchers from both Kings College London and the University of Barcelona (La Universidad de Barcelona) in July this year entitled: 'A Pathway in the Brain that allows humans to learn new words' http://www.kurzweilai.net/a-pathway-in-the-brain-that-allows-humans-to-learn-new-words found that a collection of nerve fibres connecting the sounds of words to the parts of the brain responsible for articulating them . The sound of words and the ability to create new neural pathways and decoding and understanding of language was clearly demonstrated in this research.

Thoughts on Creativity and New Neural Pathways

Creativity has been thought to be either a right hemisphere of the brain activity or a balance between the two sides of the brain. Maybe this is to do with the definitions of how we use the concept of creativity which at times are very different indeed. The first way is that flash of inspiration, bringing with it that 'ah ha moment' and pleasure from the neuro-transmitters of serotonin and dopamine and the other the challenging process of using the full brain to focus the attention, belief and action on creating an idea in material form. It seems however that whilst the 'ah ah moment' can be useful it is the continuous focus of the other that brings about the real change in one's reality that we call creativity. Work in 2009 at the University of Tsukuba in Japan on neural networks involved in artistic creativity, confirmed that training (focus of attention, belief, action...my emphasis) brings balance to the hemispheres and increases creativity via reorganized hemisphere communication.

Thoughts on Creativity and New Neural Pathways

Loosely then we have two recent studies that demonstrate the prominence of one or more senses (sound in the first study, external) and (visualization, kin-aesthetics, internal,focus, attention, belief) in the second, as the primary experience that biologically alters the brain to bring about creativity and change. Sound and Creation We are told in many of our religious texts that sound is at the beginning of creation. The Hindus recite the sound OHM as the sound that started the Universe, the Muslims recognize that the Universe started with the word of Allah, the Old Testament and the Torah tell us 'In the beginning God said let there be light' and the New Testament of the Christians tell us 'In the beginning there was the Word'. 
Mantra and Sacred Singing
Sacred Sound   

 Hindus, Buddhists, Catholic Monks among others utilize sacred sound with the express intention of changing their experience of reality or indeed reality itself. Many of us practice affirmation (or incantation as Tony Robbins calls his version which includes full emotional body experience as well as sound) to bring about change intentionally. These practices are as old as the hills
 Visualization, focus, belief and action 

Much of the journey of the new forms of internet marketing require visualization and identification of goals and hypnosis and time line therapy work with internal visualization to start the process of change. As with other blogs referring to the Law of Attraction the message here is if you wish to change your reality you can literally change your mind and brain with focused  visualization and following up with energy and concentration towards your desired aims.

To conclude, it seems that science, spirituality and the laws of success are all beginning to say the same things. Sound, visualization, focus, attention, belief and constant energy towards the goal changes the neural pathways and the experience of reality.

Abundance, Money and Spiritual Growth

Abundance, Money and Spiritual Growth

Spiritual Growth Conscious effort is the forward movement for spiritual growth. When we expand the growth of our true spirit, the natural progression is abundance in many areas of an individual's life. This also includes attitudes toward money and financial growth. How do we grow in spirit to create abundance in daily living? 

Me in Madrid

The spirit of each person is unique. Spirit is that indefinable entity within each of us. It's the deepest well inside that is linked to fate and destiny. It's not necessary to stoically accept fate. Fate can be changed upon the realization that all life has no direct route. This is how the path to abundance is more clearly recognized. It's the zigzagging of all the days of our lives that offer opportunities when we allow our spirits to soar to new heights beyond fate and destiny.

Abundance, Money and Spiritual Growth 


There are two anomalies to the state of abundance. The first is linked to misunderstanding of abundance. The second is linked to misuse of abundance. We create abundance through growth of the spirit when we fully understand abundance is not always related to materialism. Abundance misused can result in harshest consequences. Tempered with an innate sense of responsibility, abundance will naturally magnetize itself to most any human being.

Try to describe what abundance may exist in your particular life. Be careful of associating excess with abundance. Excess is, in reality, the major misunderstanding and misuse of abundance. Your life can be abundant without being excessive. Study the difference between the two. The third element of spiritual growth is power. Money is powerful. In spiritual growth, humans propel themselves toward good rather than evil. Money is neither good nor evil. The idea of wealth can be good or evil as it emanates from the human mind. When you can clearly define and use abundance to maximize growth spiritually, you also direct the course of good and evil in your life. To amass a fortune for no purpose other than amassing such fortune omits the basic need to grow in spirit. Financial Abundance Is a Demonstration of Growth Spiritually

Financial abundance directed toward the growth of the spirit is demonstrated most often by those who understand the concept of reciprocity. Financial abundance and the growth of the spirit are similar in one respect: Both are deep wells. Like all wells, they can run dry or be constantly filled with an abundance of water. This is where the concept of reciprocity begins. In order for financial abundance to remain abundant, the well must be replenished. In order for the spirit to grow, it must be spiritually replenished. When the well is too abundant, it overflows, spilling forth, causing untold damage and flooding. The wisdom of financial abundance is to continuously replenish the well from which financial abundance comes in an act of spiritual reciprocity. This is a simple lesson in "Abundance In, Abundance Out." Financial abundance is largely dependent on the growth of your individual spirit and ability demonstrate your growth. I will return again soon with more ideas relating to your success.
