The process is simple.
Change the channel. That’s what
you do when watching a boring or offensive program on television. When you surf the myriad of stations beaming
into your radio you move past those that irritate your ears. Rather than listen to a station that
aggravates your senses, you simply tune in to another station more pleasing.
It is natural to seek similar company. Birds of a feather do flock together. Whatever has your attention will
increase. Even Facebook knows that. Of course, if you continue to “like” things
that disturb you, then you’ll encounter more disturbing things. Being aware of your attention is a
magnificent tool – it allows you to change the channel and tune-out
irritations. It allows you to give
attention to what you like and desire, rather than what disturbs and angers
you.
By being aware of how/what you are thinking, you have the
power to direct your thinking. In
effect, you are in control of your life.
This is in stark contrast to those who have a meager awareness of
how/what they are thinking. The former acts, the latter reacts. The former allows
others to choose for themselves, the latter feels victimized. The former can change the channel. The latter is stuck in one position on the
dial.
Thoughts define what we call Consciousness. The absence of thinking is a state of
un-consciousness. Marginal awareness of
thinking results in semi-consciousness.
A conscious decision is a powerful thing. Thought is energy. Thought has power to attract similar thoughts
and to influence thought creation.
It is a form of induction: The
process by which an electrical conductor becomes electrified when near a
charged body, by which a magnetizable body becomes magnetized when in a
magnetic field or in the magnetic flux set up by a magnetomotive force, or by
which an electromotive force is produced in a circuit by varying the magnetic
field linked with the circuit.
Radio. Television. Smart phones.
The same electro-magnetic process works with thoughts.
You’ve experienced it.
You entered a room, or a building, where people were gathered and
“sensed” the atmosphere. Uplifting. Oppressive.
Whichever thought was dominate among the people is what was induced to
you, a.k.a. sixth sense, intuition, hunch, and so forth. It’s a fine and subtle communication, much
like looking at your phone a split second before it sounds. Perhaps you found yourself staring at
something but didn’t know why. Later,
there was a reason for that earlier attention (sometimes finding a lost item,
realizing that you really should have taken that umbrella.) These sensations are not magical or
supernatural, they are perfectly normal aspects of variations of induction.
How best to manage this powerful force that is thought? Be aware that you are thinking and that you
have both authority and ability to shift your thoughts (attention) to
anything. Your thoughts attract similar
frequency thoughts. Since every thought,
ever thought, still exists in the Universe, your thinking has a great
alliance. The alliance is neutral – your
attention will increase whether you’re focused on something pleasing or
something distressing.
If you do not believe that thoughts attract similar thoughts,
then you will discover lots of instances to validate that thought.
Get it?
