Warrior Thought Of The Week

GrantFreeman · 12-04-2008, 08:39 PM

metalslug,

The physical result is not the working dynamic. The working dynamic are the thoughts. The physical results are simply the bi-product of the MENTAL/EMOTIONAL energy those thoughts create.

Does this make sense?

The only thing that is consistent throughout this whole process is the energy. Just like Yin/Yang, it's in constant motion.

Question to you:

Would you rather focus on, and deliver a strong, fast, accurate overhead knife-edge? Or..
A LAME overhead knife-edge?

Grant
PS. For the non-Karate folk: A knife-edge in Karate is sometimes called a Karate chop.

I learned two from author Louise Hay and have been saying them for years! They are:

All that I need comes to me.

Everything I need to know is revealed to me.

Only say them IF you believe them - like it is a guarantee -- only then will they work.

Canei Group · 12-17-2008, 04:11 PM

Grant,

Great post affirmations truly work! One of my favorite is "I am always at the right place at the right time engaged in the right activity!"

Tell yourself that everyday and see what happens!

Hi there,

I'm quite new here and just ran across this thread. I've been re-reading through David Hawkins material and found a nice quote I think may fit in well here.

"Life supports that which supports life" - David Hawkins: Power vs Force

The implications run through pretty much every area of life including success. Take some time to contemplate it and see where it's at work(or not) in your own life. Quite profound.

Christie Love · 12-22-2008, 08:05 PM

These quotes are awesome. I'm going to buy a notebook to keep next to my desk. And... watch by dreams manifest.

Karen Blundell · 12-23-2008, 12:16 AM

mine is:
"I give myself permission to be happy, healthy, and prosperous.

For any Christians who might think that affirmations seem a little hokey, consider this series of affirmations:

"The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want."
Because the Lord is my guide, leader, and provider for all matters physical, spiritual, and otherwise, I will not be lacking in any area of need.
"He maketh me to lie down in green pastures:
he leadeth me beside the still waters."
He will in fact, lead me to places where I can be sustained and find rest
"He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the
paths of righteousness for his name's sake."
He will bring healing to my innermost heart, He will lead me from there on paths that are right and good in His ever-capable eyes, He will do this for the sake of His own character, because that is who He is consistently.
"Yea, though I walk through the valley of the
shadow of death; I will fear no evil: for thou
art with me; thy rod and thy staff they
comfort me."
Even in the darkest of paths, when the most prominent of evil exists in my life, my fears are calmed because of the very capable presence of the One who is there with me, disciplining me when I leave for a path that is bad for me and Him, guiding me while His staff rests upon my in an assuring way.
"Thou preparest a table before me in the
presence of mine enemies: thou anointest
my head with oil; my cup runneth over."
Even when enemies approach, and in fact surround, I am still cared for in the sense of all the sustenance I need, and more, for He liberally cares, so much so that He is more than I need.
"Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all
the days of my life; and I will dwell in the
house of the Lord for ever."
I am so confident in the character of my Lord that His grace and mercy will pursue me for as long as I am alive, and He will in fact secure His presence with me forever
Psalm 23

I am a spirit having a human experience.

GrantFreeman · 02-20-2009, 08:44 PM

For the last few days, I've gotten deep into a book that I just can't get enough of. Always with feelings like this, I make highlights, and then write down notes, word for word, and include my thoughts afterward.

This is really good stuff to add to this thread, for many reasons. Personal & Spiritual Growth, and to understand what, exactly, true affirmations are, and what they can manifest for you.

So, I've taken a small segment out of the book I've mentioned, "Conversations With God", to share with you (pages 178 & 179). At the end of this post in quotes, I've jumped ahead in the book on page 180 to include a few paragraphs to help sum things up for better understanding.

I know the following words will inspire you in one way or another! Enjoy, and lets keep this thread going.

Word for word from the book..

Then why don't I have more success?

I said, your words are its [universe] command. Now your words were "I want success.". And the universe says, "Okay, you do".

I'm still not sure I follow.

Think of it this way. The word "I" is the key that starts the engine of creation. The words "I am" are extremely powerful. They are statements to the universe. Commands.

Now, whatever follows the word "I" (which calls forth the Great I Am) tends to manifest in physical reality.

Therefore "I" + "want success" produces you wanting success. "I" + "want money" must produce you wanting money. it can produce no other thing, because thoughts, words are creative. Actions are, too. And if you act in a way which says that you want success and money, then your thoughts, words, and actions are in accord, and you are sure to have the experience of this wantingness. You see?

Yes! My God- Does it really work that way?

Of course! You are a very powerful creator. now granted, if you had a thought, or made a statement, just once- as in anger, for instance, or frustration, it's not very likely that you'll convert those thoughts or words into reality. So you don't have to worry about "Drop dead!" or "Go to hell," or all the other less-than-nice things you sometimes think or say.

Thank God.

You're welcome. But, if you repeat a thought, or say a word, over and over again- not once, not twice, but dozens, hundreds, thousands of times- do you have any idea of the creative power of that?

A thought or a word expressed and express and expressed becomes just that- expressed. That is, pushed out. it becomes outwardly realized, it becomes your physical reality.

Good grief.

That's exactly what it produces very often- good grief. You love the grief, you love the drama. That is, until you don't anymore. There comes a certain point in your evolution when you cease to love the drama, cease to love the "story" as you've been living it. That's when you decide- actively choose- to change it. Only most don't know how. You now do. To change your reality, simply stop thinking like that.

In this case, instead of thinking "I want success," think "I have success."

That feels like a lie to me. I'd be kidding myself if I said that. My mind would shout, "The hell you say!"

Then think of a thought you can accept. "My success is coming to me now," or "all things lead to my success."

(and the quote from page 180)

"Affirmations do not work if they are merely statements of what you want to be true. Affirmations work only when they are statements of something you already know to be true.

The best so-called affirmation is a statement of gratitude and appreciation. "Thank you, God, for bringing me success in my life." Now that idea, thought, spoken, and acted upon, produces wonderful results- when it comes from true knowing; not from an attempt to produce results, but from an awareness that results have already been produced."

Namaste,

Grant

One of my favorite thoughts is by Charles Spurgeon:

Anxiety does not empty tomorrow of its sorrows, but only empties today of its strength.

Reminds me of a saying that mom always said:

Worry today is like interest paid on a debt that may never come due.

GrantFreeman · 03-06-2009, 06:29 PM

I know I have been given the freedom, desire, and passion to think of many possibilities.. unlimited opportunities of greatness. I know the more I think of these thoughts, they will empower me, and my reality in a positive way.

Soon they will help others see just how magnificent they are as human beings.

I know that I also have been given the gift of free will, love, and passion- the power to allow myself to be who I want, achieve what I want, and I make a stand today, right now, that I will let NOTHING, and NO-ONE come between me and my dreams.

Freud compared the human mind to an iceberg: the small part that shows above the surface of the water represents conscious experience, while the much larger mass below water level represents the unconscious - a storehouse of impulses, passions, and inaccessible memories that affect our thoughts and behavior.
