This is a darn good thread. I'm glad I found it. I have only read the last few posts but they resonate well with me so over the coming days I'll be going over your material. Thanks for your effort.

Welcome aboard!

I hope you decide to post some quotes or thoughts as you go along.
Sometimes just saying:
  • I like this because...
  • I've found this works..
  • Perhaps this idea could be used in...
Can be of service to other readers.

It is about how to move the theory into reality and reshape our lives to what we would envision them to be.

As you go along if you find something that you feel was good .. please that a moment to update the Table of Contents on the first page..
(this request is to all readers!!)

The stronger we make it and the more easily we can find information the more service it is to all of us and those who join along the path.

..........
peace, love and joy to you

At the top right hand corner of every post is the word
(permalink)

if you put your cursor over it and right-click you will get a drop-down menu with a list of choices one of which is
Copy link location



selecting this puts the link in your clipboard (memory)
and then edit paste (Cntrl+V) will paste it


You can add a title and copy and paste both to the Table of Contents

thanks!

Back to the Future

I think sometimes we have the vision too close-up (in our timeline).

Let's say the timeline is:
------- Past -----------
early childhood
youth
schooling
job1
job2
etc
past trading experience
------past -------

------present-------
-trying to make a wonderful trading income
$5,0000
hit and miss trading
------present-------

------future-------
$10,000
$50,000
$100,000
$500,000
$1,000,000
$20,000,000

------- "Final" goal1 ---------
buy a wonderful home
health goals
wonderful family/relationships
wonderful experiences/traveling etc
service to the globe and humanity
------- "Final" goal1 ---------

---------next goal -legacy achievements & contributions ----------
Bringing great inventions into being to better the planet
creating foundations for good for the environment and people
writing a great piece of literature or spiritual growth
etc.
--------next goal ---------

================ looking from "Final" goal 1 ====== Back to the Future ====

Our vision can be 10 years after we got there -with the home, family, investment nest-egg etc.
Your can imagine yourself with your wonderful friends, family, home etc looking forward and materializing your next level - contribution goals. You are safe. Your money wasn't stolen. You're brokerage account didn't go bankrupt. You have made it - and that was 10 years ago.

A reporter is in your beautiful home and after some pleasantries with him marveling at the beauty around him, - how fit you are, what a gorgeous family you have, wonderful lifestyle and so on
he asks:
"My readers are very interested in how you took $5,000 and transformed it into a vast fortune, against all odds and all dis-believers. Can you tell us of your journey?"

..........
peace, love and joy to you

@aquarian1 As this speaks to me vastly on every dimension, the key takeaway here is extremely powerful. As much as I already know this consciously, I am too busy allowing the subconscious flood me with thoughts after thoughts of what is counter intuitive to being present and actioning on your fear. I appreciate your effort in bringing awareness to this community.

I think you have highlighted a very important point.

There is a VAST difference between intellectual/conscious mind understanding and
intuitive being/knowing knowledge.

This I see as the real challenge. How do we move from reacting to the world of external sensory input and start to build inner intuitive knowing that can be proactive and creative?

(Versus being reactive and maintaining our Old world, the "Unsuccessful Man", that we wish to discard) ?

No other person can make you successful or keep you from achieving your goals. Taking the initiative means assuming a leadership role, a position that singles you out for praise — and for criticism. The good leader is the one who shares the credit for success with others and assumes full responsibility for failures or temporary setbacks. When you accept responsibility for your actions, you gain the respect of others and are well on the way to creating your own future.

10:01 .. to be transformed in mind is to be transformed in conversation.
10:31 A change of speech is a change of mind.

(speech, conversation = inner talking, inner conversation)
21. Manifest Your Reality Through Mental Conversation



-----------
To hold new images in our minds we must hold new inner conversations.

Tip
I have found the it is sometimes helpful in visualizations to have a linked key phrase, e.g.
"See the Abundance"



When I say the phrase it keys me to a "pre-recorded" visualization and links to the first scene:

I am in the living room of my home. It is beautifully designed with a huge vaulted ceiling and interior ornate pillars made of jade and inlaid with lapis-lazu and gold forming a swirling vine and leaf motif spiraling around the pillars. I put my hand upon them and feel the smooth cool touch of the stone.

The front of the living room is glass panels reaching to the ceiling. I step up to the double doors put my hand on the round brass door knobs, push them open and step out onto the large stone patio which forms a semicircle covering the front edge of the house. I walk to the edge and lean upon the stone patio railing and graze out at the beautiful view. Below stretches a descent covered in beautiful red flowering hibiscus. Then after the descent, there is the tropical forest. And future out is the shimmering blue of the ocean about a mile in the distance and 1,000 feet below. I take a deep breath of the pure clean morning air and soak in the immense beauty of the scene.

.etc...

Tip
So you start with one scene and then it links to the next and the next. Your "keying phrase" you write on a card, read it and close your eyes and start the visualization include yourself moving about the scene, touching objects, and seeing things and feeling things.

peace, love and joy to you
