    The Magic touch

    By Felix | May 13, 2008

    how.jpgConcerning all acts of initiative and creation, there is one elementary truth the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in ones favor all manner of unforeseen incidents, meetings and material assistance which no man could have dreamed would have come his way. I have learned a deep respect for one of Goethe’s couplets: ‘Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it! Boldness has Genius, Magic, and Power in it.’” –W.H. Murray, of the Scottish Himalayan Expedition.

    Today I’d like to share a few more things I learned from “The Secret”, one of these being that the magic touch or solution we need to meet our needs in life, to make the universe work for us lies in our hands all we need do is apply it. Very difficult equations most often times are solved by the simplest of solutions.

    We all work with one infinite power which is the law of attraction. Whatever is going on in your mind is what you are attracting. Our thoughts = creation. If these thoughts are attached to powerful emotions (good or bad) that speeds the creation. Whatever it is you are feeling is a perfect reflection of what is in the process of becoming, happy feelings will attract more happy circumstances and vice versa.

    Hope I have not succeeded in confusing us, what I was trying to say in summary is: You attract your dominant thoughts. Those who speak most of illness have illness, those who speak most of prosperity have it..etc.. This has nothing to do with wishful thinking.

    You can’t have a universe without the mind entering into it, if you choose your thoughts carefully, then you are a masterpiece of your life. This is why you get people attracting a lot of negative things into their lives, because they think about what they don’t want and attract more of the same, example is most of us say this everyday… “I am broke”, “ I don’t have enough”, “ I am not as lucky as he is”. All these are negative things and we not only say them, we see ourselves thinking it and then wonder why it happens.

    You can decide today to Shift your awareness, like Winston Churchill said … “You create your own universe as you go along”. Start by using this sentence for all of your wants: “I’m so happy and grateful now that… ” Fill in the blanks with what you really want out of life and keep that good feeling while doing it, you can open it up and read it as often as you choose, that will help in attracting what you want out of life. Set a goal so big that if you achieved it, it would blow your mind. You don’t need to know HOW the universe is going to rearrange itself to your own benefit. Our job is not to worry about the “How”. The “How” will show up out of the commitment and belief in the “What”.

    Decide what you want… believe you can have it, believe you deserve it, believe it’s possible for you. Close your eyes and visualize having what you already want - and the feeling of having it already. Focus on being grateful for what you have already… enjoy it!! Then release into the universe. The universe will manifest it.
    “Whatever the mind of man can conceive, it can achieve” W. Clement Stone

    Take a cue from the story below.

    If you put a buzzard in a pen six or eight feet square and entirely open at the top, the bird, in spite of his ability to fly, will be an absolute prisoner. The reason is that a buzzard always begins a flight from the ground with a run of ten or twelve feet. Without space to run, as is his habit, he will not even attempt to fly, but will remain a prisoner for life in a small jail with no top.

    The ordinary bat that flies around at night, a remarkable nimble creature in the air, cannot take off from a level place. If it is placed on the floor or flat ground, all it can do is shuffle about helplessly and, no doubt, painfully, until it reaches some slight elevation from which it can throw itself into the air. Then, at once, it takes off like a flash.

    A Bumblebee if dropped into an open tumbler will be there until it dies, unless it is taken out. It never sees the means of escape at the top, but persists in trying to find some way out through the sides near the bottom. It will seek a way where none exists, until it completely destroys itself.

    In many ways, there are lots of people like the buzzard, the bat and the bee. They are struggling about with all their problems and frustrations, not realizing that the answer is right there above them or better put in the wings (hands).

      From time to time we all need help knowing which direction to go;whether or not to relocate,take a certain job,or commit to a relationship.hence, D anwser is to ask yourself these questions:
      1) Am i happy with d way things are in my life right now?if you’re not,take responsibility.Quit blame-placing n excuse-making! the only one who can stop you from becoming the person GOD intended you to be-is you.

      (2)Am i afraid of success?afraid of the cost n commitment required? Leadership is lonely;maybe you’d rather be with d crowd.Or perhaps u’ve been knocked down n you’re afraid to get up again. listen to this:When Thomas Edison was asked why he was successful he replied;’I start where other men leave off!’ when world heavy weight champion Jim Corbett was asked what it took 2 win the title he replied,’Just fight one more round.’Apostle Paul wrote,’we get knocked down,butwe get up again n keep going.

      If you’ve been settling for less,ask GOD for a greater faith n a greater focus,then START AIMING HIGHER!! N BECOME WHO U WERE BORN TO BE..

      Whether u realize it or not RIGHT now ur attracting people, situations, jobs and much more into ur life. Once u re aware of this law and how it works, u can start to use it to deliberately attract what you want into ur life.
      YOU alone have d ability to transform any weakness or suffering into strength, power, perfect peace, health, and abundance.
      As a man thinks in his heart, so is he.” Proverbs 23:7

      I have many thoughts going threw my mind as i read this,,,due to,,, i am a firm believer that our path in life is set and all we go threw we are to or we wouldnt, learning lesson, why i say this is after the death of my love the pain and lost feeling one gets is enough to literally kill you..one night after his death as i sat in a living room to a new place i had purchased and moved into to start a new life, i remember dreaming of being in this room, i visualized it to the tee, i remember dreaming this dream many many yrs before ever seeing this living room.. this confermed that all i went threw with his death all the pain all the lost feeling i felt i was where i was suppopse to be at that point in time.. almost like i was prepaired in my dreams of what was to be but forgot once i woke until i have lived threw it.. hope im not confusing you.. but not all live here on this earth or want what it can provide, i have a different outlook in life most the time and listen to the spirit in my soul verses what society thinks.. i am listening to you felix and hearing you, but one thing i cant help but listen to “in my soul” is the fact that, what one goes threw in life makes them who they become, lessons build character, you have givers and takers in life, im a giver i know who i am i know what life is all about and i know where im going i do not live for what this world can provide me, free will is just that you have the freedom of choice but i am a firm believer that that choice was instilled in your soul to make that choice way before u ever came to that decision.. you think its free will but its your lifes destind path.. wink.. xxx hagd ..

      a particularly riveting piece that one. what u see is what u get!the mind is the centerpiece and hub of productive(or unproductive)activity in the universe,that’s why the good book instructs “guard ur heart with all diligence for out it are the issues of life”.
      keep the fire burning bro!

      @becks … agree with you, if you aim for the sun, you just might hit the moon and thats definetly above the sky… ;)

      @chidinma … yep, good or bad you are attracting it to yourself, so stay positive and forget the how.

      @Vinc … Amen, i’ll keep staying ahead and i need you to come along for the ride.

      @nanfe … thanks, i guess i am

      @solomon… the shift has started, hope you are in tune with it.

      @debra … i understand perfectly and yes our minds play out our life, but if we can focus on keeping it positive, it will definetly turn out great. ;)

      @jerry … i like the piece you shared from the holy book … “guard ur heart with all diligence for out it are the issues of life”. thanks
