throughout the web. I make it my business to flood my mind with positive material every day. Positive thinking has changed my life in so many ways and I try to live by 6 basic laws that I’m going to share with you now.
I’m not going to try to convince you of the validity of these laws as the information is widely available for you to delve deeper if you need to, however, it should become obvious of the importance these laws can have if used persistently and consciously.
I first heard of these 6 laws from a very successful, and one of the best personal development coaches. The book was called “The Mind Power Home Study Program” and the author is John Kehoe.
Everything in this Universe is governed by Laws. The planets that orbit the sun follow the same patterns because they are governed by laws. The law of gravity says that if I throw an object up, it will come back down. The speed of sound travels at 750 miles an hour, and so on……
Everything that happens to us is also governed by laws and the beauty of this is, we can control how these laws affect our reality just by being aware of them.
Anyway, let’s get straight to it, I don’t want to keep you any longer than necessary.
1… Thoughts are real forces.
Don’t make the mistake of dismissing this law because of your intellectual understanding of what you think it means. Thoughts are NOT meaningless little things that pass in and out of our minds. This law must be taken to a deeper level and needs to be contemplated, analyzed and probed to gain a level of understanding that takes you below the surface level of what you would initially assume it to mean.
Every single thought you have is an energy which has a direct effect on the reality you perceive. Weak and scattered thoughts are real forces, strong and concentrated thoughts are also real forces. Our reality is created by the force and power of the thoughts we entertain, whether those thoughts are automatic or consciously and purposely created.
Sit down for five minutes every single day this week and contemplate how your life is created by your thoughts and ask yourself if you have been consciously using this law to enhance the reality you have undoubtedly created.
2… The mind is a sending and receiving station of thought.
Your mind is continually sending out and receiving energy vibrations in the form of thoughts, similar to a radio broadcast. As we have established in the last law, thoughts are real forces and whatever thought vibrations you consistently send out into your environment will have an effect.
You may have had thoughts or ideas pop into your mind out of nowhere and wondered where the hell they came from, well now you know. We pick up thoughts and ideas from other people who’s thoughts vibrate on the same frequency as our own. Think negative and you attract negative. Think positive and the same applies.
One day I was sitting in silence and a thought popped into my mind about an idea for an invention. The weird part is that it was a complicated contraption which had a lot of detail involved in the concept, but in just one second I had the complete picture in my mind about what it looked like and how exactly it worked. You may think that it was just my subconscious piecing together information I had stored over the years but that was not possible because It wasn’t something I had ever remotely even came close to thinking about. And yet, there it was fully completed in my mind. I am in the process at this moment of getting an investor to fund the project and it wasn’t even my idea.
3… The Law of Attraction.
Now this law is all over the place these days so I will not expand much further on the concept.
The law of attraction states that thoughts that are emotionalized become magnetized and attract similar and like thoughts. Simply put, if you are emotionally charged whether it be negative or positive then you will attract more of the same thoughts related to that emotion.
You know one of those days where everything goes wrong. It’s like a spiralling effect where one thought leads to another and then another and soon enough you see the bad in everything. .
What about when you are having a great day and everything seems to be going right and nothing can bring you down. The truth is that whatever emotions are attached to your thoughts, they will attract more of the same.
Next time you feel that your day is just plain shitty, try to shift your focus onto something more positive long enough to create a change in your pattern of thought. You will find it difficult at the start but gradually your mood will shift and you will start to attract more of the same.
4… The Law of Control.
There’s no doubt that we are forever experiencing thoughts. It’s a constant in our lives. The importance of this law cannot be underestimated as we have the power to either entertain these thoughts or dismiss them. Every time we doubt ourselves, talk negatively to ourselves, make assumptions about others, worry, dwell upon past mistakes etc, we are not using this law.
Your mind has the power to either limit you or excel you, it all depends on the control you have and the thoughts you entertain. Remember…you are not your mind, you are the controller of the thoughts that originate in the mind. When you take the time to monitor your thoughts you will notice how much we think negatively about ourselves and others.
Next time you notice yourself thinking negatively. No matter what the situation is, discard that thought straight away. Do not dwell upon these thoughts, just cut them off immediately and replace that thought with a positive one. Your mind knows your greatest fears, your mind knows your past mistakes, your insecurities and your mind likes to play tricks by creating stories based around these.
Any negative thought that is persisting in your mind is there because you are allowing it to be there. Remember…discard any negative thoughts immediately and only entertain the thoughts that benefit your growth. Contemplate this law and how it can have a dramatic effect in your life.
5… The Law of Insertion.
This law states that we have the power to insert any thought into our mind at any given time whether or not it fits into our preconceived ideas of reality. The law of insertion may very well be the most important law on this list, Just think about it. Thoughts are real forces that create our reality and we can insert any type of thought into our minds without any limitations. The only limits we have are the limits we place on ourselves.
Every day we should be inserting thoughts of health, abundance, joy and success into our minds. Every day we should be making a conscious effort to create the reality we want by only thinking thoughts that benefit our growth. When this law is used in accordance with the law of control, there is no limit to your potential.
We know that the mind cannot tell the difference between what is imagined or what is real. When we understand this then it is easy to understand how this law can transform your life and create an unstoppable mindset capable of great things.
6… The Law of Connection.
This law states that we live in two worlds simultaneously. We live in our inner world and our outer world. The problem for most of us is that we allow the outer world to control our lives and we are constantly reacting to what we perceive every day. If you understand this law then you will realize that our reality is largely determined by how we cultivate and control our inner world. Inner (cause) Outer (effect)
Because these two worlds are connected, it stands to reason that each one has an effect on the other. If you have never worked on yourself or if you have never taken the time to observe how you act and react to outside stimuli, then you will be largely affected by the outside world. It is widely known that our reality is created in the mind, so it is imperative that we stop reacting to what happens outside of ourselves and start to grasp the whole concept of influence created by both.
Two people can be looking at the exact same thing in the outer world and yet have a different reaction. This is all the proof you should need to help you understand that it is your inner world that creates how you see things and not the other way round. Take some time to contemplate this law and ask yourself which world has the greater influence on your reality.
If you can spare 20 minutes each day this week to just sit down in silence and contemplate, analyze and probe each law to gain a deeper understanding on how they can enhance your life, you will begin to see just how important they can be if used regularly.
If you have anything to add or your own experiences to share I would love to hear from you. Please share this post, leave a comment or subscribe to the blog for future updates, take care and as always, have a wonderful day.
