The King of Pop is no more. The “Thriller” is gone.

I was shocked, saddened and dismayed yesterday by the sudden passing of  not only an American, but a World-Wide entertainment Icon, Michael Jackson.

It still hasn’t set in yet…

Being only a year or so older than myself, Michael Jackson was a constant companion to me musically. And my being a musician (bass guitarist), made me realize the depth of his musical genius, probably even more than the average person.

NOTE* A message  to the mass media:

At this point and time…NO ONE REALLY GIVES A DAMN ABOUT HIS TROUBLED PAST, OK! Been there done that…Please give us (fans) and his family a break!

In the history of entertainment; no one could claim his incredible level of talent. No one had his charisma. No one commanded the attention that he did when on stage, (or off).  No one made the fashion statements, and NO ONE  could move…or move a crowd, as spectacularly as MJ did!

He could take the stage and drive not just women, but men, teenagers children and even old folks of all races, creeds and colors to the brink of passing out from total exhaustion, from just his energy and passion.

His list of “hits” is far too long to list here. He transcended color, he brought people of all races together and was one of, if not the most influentual figure in the history of the music industry.

The ironic thing is that he had just recently signed a 50 concert deal that sold out faster than any other concert in history!

But, the saddest thing of all, judging from what I know (from following him for over thirty years and from the aftermath following his death) is the way, or reason he supposedly died. It is now apparent that a lot of his friends and “acquaintances” never believed he would become an, “old man.”

The preliminary reason for his death, was “cardiac arrest,” But, I beg to differ. From what I know and what I’ve learned (about him and his lack of adult friends)…I would go as far to say that the cause of death was sadly, probably more from…a “broken heart” than anything else.

Now, after the fact, I kinda wished I could have met him…I think I could’ve been a true friend….but, that’s neither “here or there” now…

My prayers are with him and his family. He was, in my humble opinion, the Greatest Entertainer of ALL time and his legacy will live forever. He will be surely missed.

Hopefully…now, he’ll finally get some peace.

RIP, Michal Jackson, (1958-2009),

Ok, right off the bat, no I’m not referring to “African American criminals”…I’m referring to the fish, Archocentrus Nigrofaciatus!

“Black Convict” is the common name for a silvery, black-striped Cichlid. Although this popular, (3rd behind, Oscars and Angelfish) prolific, aquarium fish only grows to about 5-6 inches tops, (and that’s in a large tank) they pack a whallop that is unrivaled in the aquarium world.

I’d had a 20 gal. aquarium for years, with a group of 6, high-fin tetras (black widows), an algea eater and a couple of baby Black Oscars. One of the Oscars mysteriously passed after several months, but I’ve had the rest of the fish for over five years now, which I think is pretty good, considering I’m just a casual “hobbyist.”

Unfortunately, through an accident that we don’t need to get into here, I had to purchase another aquarium. So naturally, I figured I may as well move up in the fish world, so I bought my cousin Mike’s 50 gal. aquarium that he was selling.

Since I now had a bigger tank, I could have more fish! Yeah! So, to round out my assortment, I bought a couple of Jack Dempseys, a couple of other cichlids and I just happened to purchase a pair (male and female) of, “black convict” cichlids, not knowing exactly what I was getting into.

Well, fast forward three months and five-hundred babies later to the present! And no, I’m not kidding! They’ve had two sets of babies; the first set numbering around 200 and the second about 300 in number! I still have about 150 of the “frye” as they are called, that I separated into a couple of ten gal. tanks.

Now, in all fairness, the fish guy at the pet store warned me that they would probably mate, if the conditions were right, (sound familiar?) But, I figured what would my chances be, since I was just a “hobbyist,” you know, I don’t check the water “ph” like I should and I don’t do the proper water changes when I’m supposed to etc.

Apparently, the proper “conditions” for black convicts to mate is:

1. Buy a pair of convicts, and

2. Add food!

But, the lessons that I learned from them are:

 1. How unbelievably prolific fish can be and,

2. I learned that…ATTITUDE IS EVERYTHING!

The thing is that Black Convicts are the bad-asses of the aquarium world! They are normally very territorial by nature, however when they are spawning or mating, they defend their mate and babies with their lives! And they take on all comers, no matter what size…(including your hand!)

My convicts are about three and four inches respectively, (the males are usually the bigger of the two.) I’ve seen stand-offs between the male convict (aptly named Ivan) and the Oscar, which is about 4 inches longer, or twice his size and the convict always stands his ground!

They MUST have their space! My fifty gallon aquarium is now divided almost in half by an invisible force-field like wall, now known as the “wall of terror!”  Whenever another fish happens to wander into the “forbidden zone,” the convicts often puff up their chest and flare out their gills out to make themselves appear larger.

It’s really hilarious in a macabre kinda way, because all of the other fish stay on their “side” of the aquarium, or else! I’ve since learned after a litle more research that black convicts are a distant cousin of the piranha…and I believe it! I call them, ”pit-bulls!”

The lesson that I learned though, is that attitude is everything! Size has absolutely nothing to do with effectiveness, or ability to produce, protect, or defend! IT’S ALL ABOUT ATTITDE! 

Just ask the Black Convicts!

Keep your Head Up!

The Late, Judge Thomas Troward, (1847-1916) is my mentor and hero. I call him my “secret weapon!” (Oh well, so much for the secret!) His philosophy, among others, is one of the reasons why I became a Life-Coach!

Troward was a Divisional Judge in The Punjab, a mentor, visionary, lecturer, healer, teacher, philosopher, author, and an Honorary Member of the Medico-Legal Society of New York and the First Vice-President of the International New Thought Alliance.

He was actually given one of the highest compliments I think I’ve ever heard a human being give to another…

On Troward..

“..probably the clearest teacher of this infinite healing principle in the world’s history, with the exception of Jesus..’

-Dr. F Bailes

Wow! How’s that for a plug! Even I, with my highest praise for the good judge,  I can’t top that one! It’s funny though, because I always thought that Troward wrote with such prophetic flair that I often associated him with reverence also.

I don’t know if it’s his delivery, or maybe I’m just in tune with what he’s saying, but Troward’s literary style just seems to compliment my reading and comprehension style! His writings “hit home” with me in a way that no other has. Check out this quote:

 “..Judge Thomas Troward’s scientific and spiritual understanding of life has become the bedrock upon which millions of people have built beautiful lives.  The principles he painstakingly detailed in writing are his legacy to us all..”

 -Valerie Thompson and Heather Andrews Dobbs,  Founders and Directors of the Thomas Troward Society

That quote describes what Troward was able to do so well, in my humple opinion and that is to seemlessly meld Spirituality with the scientific world. And now that quantum physics has basically validated most, (if  not all) of Troward’s basic philosophies, it seems that he should take his rightful place amongst the greatest thinkers of our time!

He made me understand that our problems and situations can’t all be worked out using ”Spirituality” alone. We need Spirituality,  of course, but it must be utilized in concert with the scientific, as well as the natural world order, as with anything in life.

Not only was his insight and intellect technically advanced, (especially for his time) his perspective and grasp of The Mental Sciences and Universal Laws is unparalleled. 

But, the most amazing thing about Troward, besides “what” he says, is how he says it! His literary style is unparalled, in my humble opinion. Needless to say, if I had to name one personal influence, (besides my parents), I would consider him to be my number one mentor, of many.

Instead of trying to explain it, I’ll let him do the honors! This paragraph was taken from “The Law and the Word” Remember…this is from the early 1900’s!

Some Facts in Nature

“If I were asked what, in my opinion, distinguishes the thought of the present day from that of a previous generation, I should feel inclined to say, it is the fact that people are beginning to realize that Thought is a power in itself, one of the great forces of the Universe and ultimately the greatest of forces, directing all the others.

This idea seems to be, as the French say, “in the air,” and this very well expresses the state of the case-the idea is rapidly spreading through many countries and through all classes, but it is still very much, “in the air.”

It is, to a great extent, as yet only in a gaseous condition, vague and nebulous and so not leading to the practical results, both individual and collective, which might be expected of it, if it were consolidated into a more workable form.

We are like some amateurs who want to paint finished pictures before they have studied the elements of Art, and when they see an artist do without difficulty what they vainly attempt, they look upon him as a being specially favoured by Providence, instead of putting it down to their own want of knowledge.

The idea is true. Thought, is the great power of the Universe. But, to make it practically available we must know something of the principles by which it works–that it is not a mere vaporous, indefinable, influence floating around and subject to no known laws, but that on the contrary, it follows laws as uncompromising as those of mathematics, while at the same time allowing unlimited freedom to the individual.”

From “The Law and the Word”–Thomas Troward

Is that poetic or what? There’s so much wisdom in just those few paragraphs that it isn’t even funny.  Such as, the artist analogy of how most of us expect to become wealthy beyond our dreams in our own business, even though we haven’t taken a single business class!

 The sad thing is that even though millions have changed their lives using these techniques, the message is over a hundred years old! It  still seems to be “in the air“ as a gaseous , nebulous, vague condition. I would think that by now, a concept that is so practical, natural, powerful and yet Spiritual as this, would have taken the world by storm by now!

The good thing though is that we can change all of that. There is now a “Workable Form,” that has been consolidated, thanks in part to Mr. Troward himself. And just what would that “Workable Form” be?

I thought you’d never ask! Click here for the “Workable Form”

Here are just some of Thomas Trowards books and lectures. These aren’t books that you simply read, like a “normal” book. His writings are like gems of wisdom that you read,  study,  absorb, reflect, act on and re-read again and again! I highly recommend them all!

The Principles of Successful Manifesting

Take Control of Your Life!

The Law of Precession is the Universal Law that says nothing moves until something “acts.” In other words it’s the law of action.  The law of precesssion is the brainchild of Buckminster Fuller, (1895-1983) an American philosopher, architect, humanitarian, visionary, inventor and author.

The law of precession also says that an action, such as a rock thrown into a still pond, not only creates ripples of waves in the water, the waves also spread out and continue to contact and meet other waves, rocks and may even reach the distant shore, making changes along the way.

In other words, action not only creates momentum, the correct action which is also intended for the “greater good” of mankind, also has a synergistic effect on the rest of the universe. 

The law of precession is arguably the most underutilized of all the Universal Laws, because everyone that initially becomes aware of the law of attraction, thinks that manifestation is all magical, “hocus-pocus” and that it’s not supposed to take any real effort.

Nothing could be further from the truth!

It’s just another reason why I became a Life-Coach. To help “clear the air” about the Universal  Laws, especially the law of attraction. The law of attraction has been hailed as “the most powerful” of all of the Universal Laws, which I disagree with. To read about the most powerful law click here

By implying that the law of attraction is the most powerful law, it gives the false security that the law of attraction is all you need for creative manifestation.

It also negates the  power and dulls the vital importance of the other universal laws that are surely needed, not only for manifesting, material things, but for the complete and ultimate expression of  a joyful life.

The Runt of the Litter!

The law of precession ends up being the, “runt of the litter” of the universal laws, because this is where the ”work” comes in; a word most of us don’t want to hear, lest alone, do!

In today’s technologically-advanced, computerized society, everyone wants the “easy” way out! But, without the “action” part of the equation, you won’t get any results with QCM. The law of precession explains the effect that “bodies in motion” have on other, “bodies in motion.”

In other words, if you drop a stone in a pond, the stone drops straight down, but the waves ripple out in right angles along the water. So, the effect of dropping the stone, actually causes two different actions in the water, one vertical and the other horizontally.

Your actions cause a synergy that combines and harmonizes with other actions or forces in the universe, just like your thoughts harmonize with “like” frequencies. Sometimes those “side effects” can actually be more powerful than the original action!

So, don’t just sit around waiting for the law of attraction to make things happen for you. You must take positive action on your thoughts, dreams and ideas, but most importantly on your intuitions. Your “gut” is the best indicator of when and what type of action to take.

The power of “phase transition,” is a part of the inherent power that we as human beings were given in the beginning, by our Source. 

Due to the fact that God said: “Let us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness,” (Gen 1:26 KJV) I believe it’s fair to say that it also means we are made up of the same basic elements or, “constituents”  (tisssue, blood, bones, brain, etc.) that the human personification, (Jesus) was also made up of. 

(Note* I don’t want this to start sounding like a “Bible Study,” because I’m not ashamed to say that I’m not very religious at all! I’m very Spiritual, but not very ”religious;” there is a difference you know. However, I think that the Bible is still, “The Greatest Story Ever Told,” as well as the best personal guide and “Success Manual” ever written! But, I digress…)

So also, according to that same paragraph above, God said: “Let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”

I don’t know about you, but to me that sounds like we’re the, “Head Honcho’s” around here! Because, it goes on, God blessed us and said: “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it.” That can only mean one thing: “To be profitable, have plenty of children, and take control and care of the world!

Now, I don’t want to rile the “religious” folks out there that are of the, “Meek shall inherit the earth” crew that still believe that the above mention of “being fruitful” could mean” farming“, or “having kids” or something else besides making tons of MONEY, but to me it means to: “MAKE TONS OF MONEY!

Why do I say that? Because in the American Heritage Dictionary, there are two definitions for the word, “frutiful,”

1. “To produce fruit”, and

2. “Producing results; profitable.”

Now, there are those that may loosely translate, “to produce fruit” into meaning, “farming or again, having more children.” But, do you think God would say to, “Go out and have babies…and make babies? I don’t think so. Because of that and since we aren’t trees, that rules out definition #1.

I think that we’ve proven that God blessed us in the very begining of creation and that He wants us to procreate, (have babies or, “multiply“) be happy, rich and powerful, (“be frutiful, and subdue the earth”).

Now, do you think for one moment that He would give us all of these blessings and directions which also carry certain responsibilities without giving us certain tools to bring it all to fruition?

Of course He wouldn’t!

We are talking about God here, you know! So, what “gifts” did He give us that He didn’t give the lower forms of life, i.e. plants , animals, etc? He gave us (humans) the power of a mind…intelligence…the power to think and through that power, He also gave us volition, or the power of choice, called free will.

Through this immense gift, we have the innate ability to control and change our lives through the use of various tools (universal laws) that aid us in ”phase transitions” and other natural anomalies. 

What is a Phase Transition?

A phase transition is simply when matter changes from one form to another. 

A very simple example is water. If you freeze water, a liquid, it changes or transits into a solid…or ice. If you heat the ice up enough it will transit from a solid, back to a liquid and then if you add more heat, it will turn into a gas…or steam.

That type of phase transition happens because of a temperature change.  The matter changes or has a transition from one form or phase to another.

But, there are many other ways of producing a phase transition. We now know from Quantum Mechanics that humans have the power to make phase transitions through the proper usage of  “thought” energy.  How?

Quantum Theory is concerned with the study of the “building blocks” of the universe. Quantum Theory encompasses, but is not limited to, Quantum (Q) Physics, (Q) Field Theory, (Q) Mechanics, (Q) Electrodynamics, (Q) Thermodynamics, (Q) Chromodynamics and far too many other theories, principles and disciplines to mention here.

If you are totally unfamiliar with any of the terms above, or feel an anxiety attack coming on because of the technical sounding nature, don’t worry, I’m not a quantum physicist, so we’re not going to get into anything that you didn’t learn in 8th grade science.  (Besides, if I was, I’d have to charge you for this info!)

That’s the great thing about all of this. You don’t need to be a “rocket scientist” to understand and utilize the basic concepts of quantum theory; you just need a reasonable amount of intelligence and an open mind that is acceptable to new ideas.

If  you’ve seen the hit movie, “The Secret” you’ve probably heard of Quantum Theory or Quantum Physics, as one of the stars in the movie was a Quantum Physicist. 

World famous Physicist, Neils Bohr said:

“If  Quantum Mechanics hasn’t profoundly astounded you, you don’t understand it yet!”

Without getting too technical, if you only comprehend the basics of  Quantum Mechanics, you will understand the importance of not only controlling your thoughts, but more importantly you will understand that it’s not just your thoughts alone that makes a difference…it’s the type of energy of your thoughts that is the most important variable in the ultimate success or failure of any endeavor.

Quantum Theory Basics

Let’s break it down from the beginning. Here are the “creation facts” as we know them.

The Universe is in the cosmos, the earth is in the Universe and we humans inhabit the earth. We are made up of tissue, bone and fluids, which is made up of what? Cells… good, ok, what are the cells made of? Molecules, right? Ok, what are molecules made up of? Uh huh,

Atoms! Ok, now we’re getting tiny. As a matter of fact, it was once thought that the atom was the smallest form of matter, but then back in the day, we also thought that the world was flat too, so…

Of course, we now know that an atom is comprised of , what? Do you remember? Protons, neutrons and electrons, right? Ok, now we’re getting into the microscopic, quantum world.  Quantum Theory is basically the study of the sub-atomic world, or the study of the make up and interactions of atoms…or, the  ”building blocks” of the entire Universe.

This is probably where 8th grade science stops and your open mind will have to take over, because the sub-atomic world behaves like nothing we can even imagine let alone comprehend, given our current concepts of reality, science, mechanics, movement and our ideas of three- (or four) dimensional  space and time, etc.

But unfortunately, most of us are aware of the immense power of a nuclear bomb, so that should give you an idea of the magnitude of the power we’re talking about here.

The Sub-Atomic World

Here’s where things tend to get a little more complex and a lot tinier, but stay with me, hopefully it will all make sense in a minute.

We now know,  (from the use of  “atomic nuclear colliders and accelerators”)  that there are a “sea” of other “particles” within the protons, neutrons and electrons that are called “quarks,”  (yes, it was believed to be named after the sound that a duck makes!)

We’re not going to list all of the other constituents within the quarks because believe it or not, there are far too many to mention here, (about 40 more!)But, the point is that when the smallest constituents of a quark (we’re talking 0.00000000000000001 of a meter, or about a billionth of a meter, give or take!)  is broken down, it has been discovered that there is nothing but a packet, or frequency/wave/particle of vibrational energy. We and everything else in the universe is made up of packets of pure energy!

If there aren’t a thousand questions stirring around in your head by now… maybe you need to re-read the above statement. The first question I had was…how can that be? The funny thing though, is that just as with “The New Thought Movement” ,this isn’t something new, either.

This was actually formulated in the early 1900’s by Albert Einstein in the most famous of all equations: E=MC2, which simply means that Energy (E) is equal to Mass (M) times (C2) the speed of light, squared. Which basically means that energy and mass are interchangable, or one and the same.

So, what does all of this have to do with the “condition” of man? Oh, I’d say… HOW ABOUT, EVERYTHING!

The “Workable Form” that was referred to in the post on Judge Thomas Troward, has been written…part of it is called:

The Bible!

It’s been called the, “Greatest Story Ever Told!”  But, what most people seem to fail to realize is that The Bible is also the greatest Positive Thinking “Psychology” book, “Universal Law Guide” and “Ultimate Success Manual,” ever written too!

Universal Law and the Bible

Some of the Universal Laws are taken directly from the Bible: The passage, ”You reap what you sow,” is the same as “The Law of Cause and Effect” , “The Law of Love” is arguably the basis of the Bible…(God is Love)

I’ve said time and again, that if we simply followed “The Law of Love” to the unconditional letter, we wouldn’t need any of the other universal laws! So, if you’re concerned with self-improvement and you’re looking for a “Workable Form,” the very first book you need to read and adhere to is, the “The Bible!

I know, the Bible isn’t the easiest book to read, but don’t let that be an excuse, (like I did for years!) There are “student” versions, children’s versions and New International Versions that are much easier to read and comprehend. Remember, it’s the message that counts, not how you get it!

Check out the first part of  Chapter One, taken from one of Troward’s classics: “Bible Mystery and Bible Meaning”

“The Bible is the Book of Emancipation of Man. The emancipation of man means his delivery from sorrow and sickness, from poverty, struggle and uncertainty, from ignorance and limitation, and finally from death itself. This may appear to be what the colloquialism of the day would call “a tall order”, but nevertheless it is impossible to read the Bible with a mind unwarped by antecedent conceptions derived from traditional interpretation without seeing that this is exactly what it promises, and that it professes to contain the secret whereby this happy condition of perfect liberty may be attained. “

The “Other Workable Forms”

The other “Workable Forms” for success are in: 

• Finding your Soul Purpose. 
• Not only studying, but absorbing, assimilating and living by Universal Laws and,
• Utilizing Metaphysics, the Mental Sciences and Quantum Theory into your thought processes and your life.

It’s the most powerful, one-two-three punch in existence!

A ton of the information and material that I share on this blog, while seemingly, relatively new and high-tech to some, actually comes from what’s known as, “The New Thought Movement.” 

The funny, (and oddly strange) thing though is that as amazingly, life-changing, eye-opening and unbelievable all of  this information and “Movement” is…it really isn’t “new” at all! It’s actually a century old!

I actually recieved this knowlegde through and by the Law of Attraction, (among other laws). I prefer not to follow the so-called, modern day, “self-help guru’s” out there. Now, I’m  not implying that there aren’t some brilliant teachers out there, I’ve just found through my research that it’s better to get your info from as close to the “source”  as possible.

One reason is that, as you read both, (modern-day vs. old masters) you’ll find that most of the modern guru’s are just rehashing and putting a new “spin” on the old masters knowledge! 

Another great thing about following the “Old Masters,”  is that most of their information (if Copyrighted before 1923) is available for free! Click here for more info on, “Public Domain”

Through a sincere desire, positive thinking, good intentions, prayer and  meditation, I became aware of the movement through a little known, but powerful author in her own right, named Gwenevieve Berhend. She is the author of, “Your Invisible Power” and “Attaining Your Desires,” two books that I highly recommend.

Sometimes, the Universe may lead you to one through another, it’s up to us to take the “hints” whenever they come along.

Gwenevieve just happened to be the one and only student of the late Judge Thomas Troward, (1847-1916.) Troward, a Divisional Judge in the Punjab, was a the first Vice-President of the International New Thought Alliance and an Honorary member of the Medico-Legal Society of New York.

If that wasn’t enough, he was also a teacher, author, lecturer,  visionary, healer,  sage and a Master of the Mental Sciences and the written word. He is considered the “father” of the International New Thought Movement, which actually began in the late 1800’s.

There is actually a different “faction” of the New Thought Movement in America. There is a more religious faction that is connected to the Religious Science, (Science of Mind) Church and the Unity Churches that was founded by Phineas Quimby.

Although they are both more spiritually than religiouslybased than “traditional” religions and have the same basic philosophy, I’m just more familiar with Judge Troward’s  International New Thought Movement.

So, where has all of this “ground-breaking” info been all of this time?

Basically, under the radar. New Thought Philosophy has been called “the  best kept secret in the world,” but it’s gaining in popularity by leaps and bounds because of the Internet and movies like, “The Secret.”

The philosophy of the New Thought Movement isn’t to be confused with,  “New Age thinking though. New Thought is based on Metaphysics, Universal (Natural and Spritual) Laws and the Mental Sciences. It has also been called the “Mind- Cure” Movement.

Other reasons for it’s sudden rise to the forefront is because of the current economic “condition” of mankind; it’s common-sense practicality;  it’s Natural/Spiritual approach and because of the new and almost unbelieveable discoveries about energy in Quantun Mechanics (QM). 

It’s as if Troward had some type of Divine Knowledge of Quantum Theory before the theories even surfaced! I think one of the many reasons why I resonated  so well with him was because his practicality reminds me of my father. If you look up the word “practical” in the dictionary, you’ll find a big picture of my dad!

Instead of trying to explain it, check out the practical almost to the point of being humorous, first sentence in his book description from one of his  many classics, ”Bible Mystery and Bible Meaning,” 

This is actually from 1913!:

What I propose is that we shall reread the Bible on the supposition that Jesus and these other speakers really meant what they said. I hope that by helping, in however small a measure, to elucidate them, it will show the reasonableness of great truths which those who reject them as unreasonable, discredit to their own incalculable loss.

 

Man! I want to write like that when I grow up! There is a ton of practical sense in just in that paragraph alone. The most disturbing thing to me though, is the fact that as long as this wisdom has been around, (over a century) it’s still not well-known, understood or utilized properly. 

How do I know? By the current condition of mankind! Things aren’t going too well, as of right now, for a lot of people. There are actually those, (that listen and adhere to the mass-media) that think and believe that their circumstances are so bad, that “the end” may be near! That’s pretty dire!(I’ve heard several people say this!)

I don’t know about you, but I still anticipate a alot more out of life!

The New Thought Philosophy

 New Thought Philosophy is based on using Spirituality, Universal Laws and the Mental Sciences to solve daily problems. While very Spiritual, it is also extremely practical in nature. New Thought doesn’t concern itself with religious doctrine or “how” to experience God.

New Thought believes that God is Love and that Love is in our true nature.  It was originally founded as a healing mechanism, believing that all sickness originates in the mind.

Think Positively!

Ambrose

The Law of Cause and Effect is the Universal and Spiritual (Biblical) law that states that you, “Reap what you sow.” Another way of saying it is, “What goes around comes around.”

I want you to understand that these universal laws are immutable and binding, whether we know them or not, whether we believe them or not, or whether we understand them or not. Doesn’t it make sense to learn them and learn how to utilize them, since they are active in our lives regardless?

The law of Cause and Effect is probably one of the better known universal laws. It is the law that signifies that if you plant a corn kernel, then a corn plant will sprout…and not a rose bush. It’s just another way for the universe  to help Mother Nature in keeping the natural “order” of things.

Could you imagine how chaotic life would be for a farmer, if he had no clue as to what kind of plants would sprout from his seed? What if a peanut farmer planted a yardfull of what he thought were peanuts, just to find out that watermelons were sprouting up everywhere?

I know that sounds crazy (in the plant world), but we do it all the time with our lives? We consistantly plant subconscious cactuses in our mind, but expect beautiful rose bushes to grow and flourish in our daily lives!

The problem is that most people don’t even realize that they themselves are their biggest enemy! Well, I’m here to get in your face (easy to say online ) that it’s not the government, your school, your job, or your family’s fault for your lack of success.

Nine times out of ten, it’ s simply that little voice in the back of your head (your subconscious) telling you that you’re not smart enough, or worthy,  talented, lucky or whatever enough, in one way or another.

Self-denial, self doubt, self-defeat and low self-esteem, are the biggest detractors of success known to mankind. How do I know? Because I grew up in probably one of the most positive, nurturing, environments I could’ve possibly asked for and yet, I still used to succomb to those very same thoughts and feelings of doubt.

I can’t imagine the changes someone must go through who wasn’t as fortunate as I was to have a loving environment to grow up in. But, the great thing is that it your past doesn’t really matter…all that matters is today! Once I changed my mindset…it changed my life!

The Real Deal

Here’s the real deal. These universal laws aren’t just cliches, “feel good” sayings, or great Biblical quotes to try to live by. They are real! They are valid and they work! All you have to do is choose to learn and utilize them!

I know, it almost sounds too good to be true and we all know what they say about things that, “sound too good to be true”…they usually aren’t true! But, what have you got to lose by trying them? A few minutes of your time? Isn’t your life worth a few minutes of your time?

Since we have established that everything in existence started with a thought, I think it’s time to reveal the other important variables of  Cause and Effect (which has the same characteristics as the Law of Attraction) and that is:

Feelings

While thought is the seed of creation, feelings are the engine that drives the thought where it needs to go to materialize, or manifest itself. For example, if you think a thought, let’s just say you want a new dress. You’ve seen a red polka-dot dress in a store that you like.

First of all, you probably won’t attract that dress through Quantum Creative Manifestation (QCM). How can I say that already, at this point?  Because you simply “like” the dress. (see above) For QCM to work properly using the law of cause and effect, you have to first be in love with the dress!

That’s step number one.

Ok, let’s say that you’re in LOVE with a dress that you saw in your favorite store (Dillard”s) window. That’s the proper starting point! But, you notice that the dress is a little pricey. So, in attempting to attract the dress using the law of cause and effect and positive thinking, you start to think about ways that you can acquire or manifest the dress.

Since you’re familiar with the process and power of visualization, you put a picture of the dress up on your refrigerator, or vision board. You look at the picture and wish you had the dress, almost every day. But still, after several weeks, or months…nothing happens.

What’s wrong? How come your dress hasn’t materialized in your closet?

Well, nothing is wrong…you’re on the right track. It just takes more than looking and wishing for QCM to work properly and efficiently. Looking and wishing simply prepares your mind for the seed/thought to sprout. It takes feelings and emotions to drive the thought/seed into materialization in the real world.

The deeper and stronger the feelings, (i.e. purpose, emotions, dreams, intentions, desires, reasons, missions, positive energy, etc) that you give the object in question, the quicker the object will manifest itself. This is directly because of the law of Cause and Effect and indirectly because of the other universal laws.

For speedy manifestation of the dress using QCM, you need to:

• Imagine how you would feel in the dress,
• Imagine how you would look in the dress;
• Imagine seeing yourself at the functions that you would wear the dress to;
• Imagine hearing the great compliments that the people (men especially) are giving you about…”how great you look “in the dress;
• Imagine how you are going to “accessorize” the dress;
• Imagine how the dress blows in the wind as you walk down the street;
• Imagine how many “dates” you’re going to attract  with the dress…etc. etc.

I hope you get the bigger picture now! Some might say “That’s a lot of work,” but in the infamous words of Dr. Beckwith…”How bad do you want change?”

The more feeling and emotion or creative positive energy that you put into a project, idea, goal or manifestation, or whatever it is, the more you’ll get out of it. It’s simply a matter of  ”give and receive”  or cause and effect.

I have a “secret weapon” that I use to drastically speed up the manifestation process. For more information on some of the main visualization and manifestation tools that I use daily, check out this powerful, free e-book:

Live Your Dreams!

“Thought gardening” is a practical analogy to describe the thought process of what I call, “Quantum Creative Manifestation,” (or QCM). By using a combination of the Universal Laws, (Spiritual and Natural laws) listed in this blog, Metaphysics and other Quantum techniques, this post will hopefully give you a clear-cut way of how to attract anything you want from life…yes, anything!

The reason I call it QCM, is because we’ll be using methods based on Quantum Theory.  I consider this one of the most important posts on this blog!

 One of my favorite sayings is,

“People will never care how much you know, until they know how much you care!  Hopefully, this free info will show you how much I care!

The Drawbacks

Believe it or not though, giving away free information actually has it’s drawbacks:  People tend to negate free info as bogus…they think that, surely they have to pay dearly for the BIG answers to life. There’s another old saying that goes,

“When the student is ready…the teacher will appear.”

If you’re ready…here it is!

Thought Gardening

It is perplexing to say the least, why we seem to completely understand the process of life and creation when it comes to plants and animals, but don’t seem to have a clear clue when it comes down to the most important process of all, which is…our own process of creation, manifestation and life!

Since we seem to understand the process of life for plants better than we understand ourselves, let’s use horticulture as an example, or analogy for the thought process, because I think the two are joined at the hip.

The Two Minds

It has often been said that most humans only use 10-20% of their brain. Do you believe it? I did, until I did more research.

Let’s investigate.

It’s been proven that we actually use 100% of our brain! Yeah! But, don’t celebrate yet! Since the brain is somewhat like a muscle, if our body didn’t use all of our brain matter, in one way or the other, the parts that we didn’t use would shrivel up and die, (or atrophy).

However, before we “jump for joy,” we have to realize that that statistic may be a tad bit misleading. You see, there is a difference between your brain and your mind.

Although our body uses all of our brain matter in one way or another…we probably only use about 10-20% of our mind’s infinite potential! It is our “mind’s potential” that we severely under-utilize…not our brain matter!

Now, before we get into the gardening aspect, we must first understand the “terrain.” Your “terrain” is your body and the central processing unit of your body is your brain. The human brain is one of the most miraculous organs in the universe. It can process information faster than any supercomputer ever devised.

Your brain is also divided into two separate entities, often called the male and the female, the left half and the right half.  Not only is your brain divided into two halves, or hemispheres, so is your mind. We know them as the subconscious mind and the conscious mind.  I’m sure we’re all familiar with both, but just for clarity’s sake, we’ll go over a few points

Your conscious mind takes care of  ”day-to-day” activities. It is basically in charge of and controls all of your 5 senses, daily bodily functions,  i.e. doing no.1 and no. 2, (sorry, it is what it is!)  reasoning, and data-processing.

I once thought that the conscious mind was the most powerful part of our mind, (especially since it was in charge of your feelings…as in sexual! Ok, we won’t go there!) :-) But, boy was I wrong!

I eventually found out that your conscious mind in comparison to your   subconscious mind is like a little, dim-witted cousin!  Your subconscious mind is where your ultimate power lies!

Your subconscious mind is the storage system,  frequency-transmitter, and reciever of the body, which makes it your “Spiritual Control Center” among other things. Our subconscious mind also takes care of all of our involuntary bodily functions like our heart beating and breathing.

In other words, you didn’t have to “think” about breathing,  just now when you took a breath. Your subconscious mind took care of it for you. (I think we should thank our subconscious for that!)

In other words, our subconscious mind takes care of all of the vital things that go on, in and with our mind, body and soul and thus the major part of our lives that we don’t normally have to think about. 

It is also supplies our vital connection to the Spiritual Realm…now, that’s a topic for another conversation!

According to Dreammanifesto.com the subconscious mind processes about 400 billion bits of information per second and these impulses travel at a speed of up to 100,000 mph!

Compared to your conscious mind, which processes about 2000 bits of info per second and it’s impulses travel at speeds of 100-150 mph.

But, it makes sense after you figure in all of the other bodily functions that the subconscious mind controls. Once I learned which part of the mind was the most powerful and influential, I realized which part we needed to concentrate on developing and listening to the most.

Our subconscious mind.

Horticulture 101

It has now been proven scientifically through quantum theory, that “thought” is the beginning of all creation. Everything that ever was, is, or will ever be, started or will start, as a thought.

You had to think about turning on your computer, before actually hitting the power button. You thought about drinking your cup of tea, before your body reacted and your muscles flexed to actually pick up the cup.

When you think about it, how can this not be true?If you need more proof… Even God had to think about the creation of life and the Universe before he created it!

So, if  a “thought” is the basis of all creation, then it goes without saying that everything in our lives was created by our thoughts. So, it is of utmost importance that we  learn how to control and monitor our thoughts, if we seek to change our lives.

How?

Through organized thought and applied knowledge! Since a thought is the beginning of creation,  it is often referred to as a “seed.” Any farmer or gardener knows that in order to have a successful harvest in the Fall, you must prepare the soil in the Spring.

The soil must be of the right composition (not too sandy, the right amount of organic matter, etc.) and treated with the proper nutrients, (fertilizer) etc. It must also have the right amount of moisture.

In other words, the “conditions” must be correct for germination. For example, let’s say that you planted a corn kernel in the ground. If all of the necessary natural conditions are met, what do you think will happen? A corn plant will sprout and materialize, right?

And it’s not just that a corn plant, may materialize…if you start with a healthy seed and have the right conditions, The Law of Growth guarantees that it MUST materialize. It’s all within the natural order of Nature.

 The Law of Growth and the Law of Cause and Effect (sowing and reaping) also guarantees that if you plant a corn kernel, then a corn plant will sprout,  materialize and grow…and not a rose bush!

So likewise, the seed of thought must also have a healthy environment to sprout in your mind and to grow and materialize in the “real world”. How do you create a healthy environment? By keeping an open, aware, positive, loving, righteous, accepting, gracious, etc. mind!

If this all seems like plain old common-sense to you, then explain this next statement:

Why do we as humans continue to plant “corn kernels” in our minds, but seem to continue to expect “rose  bushes” to sprout, materialize and flourish in our lives?

In other words, why do we continue to think or try to be successful, when we consistently believe and do things that we know, deep down inside of us, that are counterproductive to our success?

So, what’s a person to do?

Start thinking in a positive way, first and foremost.  Positive thinking was such a phenomenon back in the day, that an entire industry was started from it. But, positive thinking is just the start. Positive thinking simply prepares the “terrain” (your brain) for germination of the thought/seed.”

Positive thinking prepares the mind’s “soil” for the proper and complete germination of your (seed) thought. Once the thought seed is planted in the proper positive environment or “soil,” then it can (and will) germinate.

But, it doesn’t stop there. Just like with a plant, you also have to nurture your thoughts to make them materialize and continue to grow into the “mighty oaks” that they are. And that comes from the type of “nutrients” of energy that you continue to give them.

You have to sprinkle the germinated thought/seed with the water of belief, and flood the thought/seed with the light of truth and feed the thought/seed with the nutrients of  “good intent, even more positive thinking and the proper action” for your thoughts to materialize grow and flourish. Need an example?

Let’s Get Specific.

For example, let’s say you want a new car…a Lexus. But, in the back of your mind you really think that a Lexus may be out of your price range. If you sincerely think that a Lexus is out of your price range, but you still want to try to obtain it using  QCM, you can stop where you are, as you’re already defeated before you start.

Why? Because the “soil” of your mind is already “polluted” with doubt that you can’t afford it, before you even plant the thought/seed of wanting it! The though/seed will just whither and die! Let’s take it a step further.

Now, let’s suppose you want and believe that you can afford a new Lexus. You have the correct, positive mindset. You plant the thought/seed…you affirm, “I want a Lexus LS… (whatever it is, but be specific).” 

And following QCM and the Law of Attraction, you also put a picture of it up on your bulletin, or “vision board,” so that you can visualize it.

You think about the car and look at the picture once or twice a week, you even prayed on it, but still after a few months, nothing happens? What are you doing wrong? Why hasn’t a Lexus appeared in your driveway? 

There are so many other variables involved, that I’m just going to run them down here:

1. Did you pick out the color, the size of the engine and/or the options on the car?
2. Did you go down to the dealer to sit, smell, turn on the radio, and test drive the car?
3. What are your true reasons for wanting the car? Is it for reliable transportation or purely from a ”bling bling” standpoint?
4. Do you have a plan, or are you taking the proper “actions” to acquire the car?
5. Do you really and truly believe you deserve the car?
6. Is acquiring the car a genuinely realistic goal? Did you give yourself a resonable timeframe to achieve it?
7. Have  you thought about how good it will feel when you’re driving your new car? How will your friends feel about you having this car?
8. Do your friends/family riducule you about wanting an expensive car, or are they supportive?
9. Have you been diligent in your visualization/positive thought processes, or prayer/meditation regarding the car?
10. Have you acted on those nudges or ideas that you got from those prayer/meditations?
11. According to Dr. Wayne Dyer, the law of attraction doesn’t give you everything that you ”want”…the law of attraction gives you what you “are!”
12. So…have you “become” that car? In other words do you eat, sleep and dream that car?

And of course, this isn’t an exhaustive list, but you should get the idea now. If you are doing “all of the above,” and more, then I can assure you that your Lexus is on the way! Quantum Creative Manifestation guarantees it!

But, if you leave out any of the above variables, (among others), then the amount of time involved in the creative manifestation process is exponentially compromised by the proportional lack of positive energy.

If you’ve been trying to attract something in your life and you’re not getting the results you’d like as fast as you’d like, shoot me a comment, I may be able to help.
