A few years ago when I was mentoring young entrepreneurs I wanted to give them real life situations that gave them understandable analogies about what we were discussing.It was amazing that I found that the car and our relationship with it, held all the analogies one could hope for in explaining these teachings.
A major hurdle that most people find difficult, is that you must set your goal and not concern yourself with how you will reach it. Most people when first learning this stuff, find this a really big stretch and say that that is a cop out and in real life we would never go off on a journey and not know how we were going to get there. So the message was just keep focused and things will pan out to eventually get you to your goal, I know it all sounds so simplistic, but you find it difficult to relate to the fact that you are relying on an unknown source that you know nothing about and worse, you have no idea how it works, or what it will do to get you to your destination. Someone tells you that you must not worry about how it happens just trust them.There are many reasons why, but we just cannot comprehend this statement and we are not going to believe it until we know how it works. Our mind is programmed and by repetition the mind will accept what it is being told. Acceptance of an action or result of a thought can also be instilled into you by someone who you trust or admire. That is the simplest way to obtain knowledge and we can see that transference of information in schools and religious orders. That includes information that would be very hard to digest if it was told to you by some one who you did not trust or admire. Imagine how much information has been taught in schools and universities for hundreds of years, that has subsequently been proved wrong, during that period. Another way we can take on board new information is when we can see the results of certain actions and have solid proof that it works.Unfortunately in some instances, we can see results, but when the information as to how they were achieved is given to you, you have an inbuilt stop button that refuses to accept the information because you are programmed to think it does not apply to you. This is your interpretation of the situation and depending on what you have taken onboard in the past, will determine whether you can believe this new information or not. Many of us will have been told, whilst we were growing up, that we will not amount to anything and that certain things happen to other people because they are different. It is dependent on how much of this information you took in as to what you believe now. [ Whether it is stored in your subconscious or you actually believe it, the results are the same ] Unfortunately we have a double 'Whammy' with this information because it was not only repetitive, but it was also delivered by someone you trust. Unless you find out what you actually believe, you are snookered, because all this incorrect information is governing what you can do and achieve. It is very complex but until you find out what your limiting beliefs are, you are destined to map out your future with incorrect and possibly totally false information. I will post part two of this article, relating all this to the car in the next few days. Abundance to All Croz |

Interesting.
Looking back approximately 10 years ago, I admit freely to being one of those who heard the admonition that we should just "set the goal", believe that as long as we hold the vision before us, we will get there, and, as I believe it was stated by Les Brown: "how you're gonna get there is NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS." Speaking for myself, I'm one of those persons who wanted to know why and how it worked in this manner - in other words, while there are persons who could execute "blind" belief about a proposition like that, i.e., accept it as absolute truth, without question, and simply implement it, at the time, I was not one of those persons. This might explain in my own case, how my journey along the path of personal development, inevitably led me to the works of Wallace Wattles and many others - which is too long a story to get into right now. Suffice it to say, I did found out how and why it works that way. That is not to say that I successfully put it to use each and every time (one day I might attain to that state and stay there), but it is what "works for me", and maintains my confidence in being able to use it, even if it is not necessarily needed by someone else. |

What makes "me" believe?
Hmmm......interesting! Ever since I was about 7-9 years old, I have gone through life with this belief in something higher. Now, at that time I was attending a Catholic Primary School, so that may have had a lot to do with this "higher belief" thinking. Throughout my life I have also been brought up with my native Maori background with all its' own conotations and perspectives on "world creation". Once again, based on higher beings. Then in about 2001, I took up natural gardening, which involved working with "planetary influences" based on the book Agriculture. Spiritual Foundations For The Renewal Of; by Rudolph Steiner. Now this gardening perspective has, I believe, more to do with the spiritual aspect, rather than the higher beings as such. Nevertheless, the perspective is once again inclined toward the aspect of higher beliefs. Well, when TSOGR came into life about 5 weeks ago, the words and the thinking with CMI's and manifestations just gelled with me, and I've more or less been on a journey of reprogramming a lot of my old ways of thinking ever since. After all, if it means I'm finally going to have all that I've ever desired in life, I'm more than happy to carry on doing what I've been doing most of my life anyway, believing in the "higher". Hey... if they want to give me a few $0000k's just for now, til I get in the groove of things a bit better, that's fine! After all, I've been at it a few years now, bit of backpay wouldn't go astray. Just a thought! Blessings Anaru |

What made me believe in God were his own words, the bible which I read cover to cover, twice. I am grateful that I was not spoonfed the gospel from my parents or some church. Though there are diamonds among the churches as well
