| The Universal Law Of Creation
by

Before
we can learn to create our goals, dreams, and desires on a conscious
level, we need to understand and identify the key ingredient in
creating any of our desires.
Since
the age of eighteen I’ve read and studied every book on
self-help, psychology, sociology, theology, positive thinking,
spirituality, metaphysics, and self-improvement that I could get my
hands on. I was in sales for many years, so I attended many
Lets-Go-Get-Em Seminars. I have also taken countless special sales
courses, workshops and self-improvement seminars.
Were
most of them good? Absolutely!
But
after a while I started noticing that for some reason the only effect
they had on me was providing temporary spurts of inspiration,
motivation, and enthusiasm. Nothing that would really last past a few
days, weeks or months.
I’m
sure you’ve had this experience. You read a really good book or
attend a great seminar and for a period of time you get really pumped
up. You feel like you got the point and that you are ready to take on
just about anything. This is what would happen to me. Sometimes it
would last for weeks or even months. However, sometimes it would only
be fifteen minutes before someone or something would knock me right
down to my original reality. One thing was certain; sooner or later I
would be back where I started.
Still
I wondered – there must be something that I am missing here!
There must be a law that I am missing. There must be a
Universal
Law.
I must find the difference between the successful and the not
so successful, the self-made rich man living on the hill and the poor
man living in the street. I wanted to know the difference between the
people I knew that were happy all the time and the ones that were
constantly miserable.
I
could not understand why we all looked basically the same yet our
realities were so different. Some of the poor people I knew were
smarter and worked harder than some of the rich people I knew. How
was that possible?
I
kept searching and searching until one day I realized the common
thread in the messages of all the most successful speakers, writers,
and philosophers. It was so easy, yet so overlooked. It was the
answer to all of the questions I mentioned previously.
It
was the key to how everyone on this earth creates, not only what we
want, but everything else as well, intentionally or
unintentionally. After years of searching I had the answer…
Thought!
Did
I say Thought? Yes,
Thought!
But
actually it was a little more involved than that. Thought was at the
root of it all but after awhile a pattern began to emerge in my
studies. And this pattern had more to do with how we process thought
on a conscious level or unconscious level. In other words, how we
process thought intentionally or unintentionally.
It
began to appear to me as if there was this underlying law that was
operating silently below the surface and creating our lives. I can
only describe this law as a law of nature or even a spiritual law
because it involved the unseen creating the seen. After careful
analysis and review of the most respected teachings I realized that
this law was at the root of our creations.
And
this law I called, “The Universal Law of Creation.”
Here
is the Universal Law of Creation: Whatever
thoughts you focus on the most, intentionally or unintentionally,
become your beliefs. Your beliefs, through focus, get stronger and
stronger and sooner or later become your knowingness. Your
knowingness creates your attitudes, actions and synchronicity which
creates the events and experiences of your life!
I
called this the “Universal Law of Creation.”
“Universal”
because it will work for anyone. “Law” because it works
regardless of whether we accept it or not and “Creation”
because that’s how we create. To get a clearer picture, see
diagram above.
This
law is the key to creating all of your goals, dreams and desires.
This is the secret to overcoming your past, enjoying the present and
creating the future of your dreams. This is the key to creating
success in any area that you choose and the key to reaching your full
potential.
The
answer can be found in truly understanding and applying the Universal
Law of Creation to consciously create what you want in your life.
And the more you understand it, the more you apply
it,
on a conscious
level,
on a day to day, moment to moment basis, the more success you can
create.
Now,
I named this law and I defined it in this way, but believe me, I did
not invent it. Writers, spiritual leaders and philosophers have
repeated the truths standing behind the Universal Law of Creation
for centuries.
Leaders
such as Norman Vincent Peale, Dale Carnegie, Deepak Chopra, Dr. Wayne
Dyer, Anthony Robbins, John Kehoe, Dr. Joseph Murphy and Napoleon
Hill have all been talking about this philosophy for a long time. The
list of supporters goes on and on for centuries past.
Even
the Bible says, “according to
your belief be it done unto you” (Matthew 9:29) and “For
as he thinketh in his heart, so is he” (Proverbs
23:7).
It
was Buddha who said, “We are
what we think, with our thoughts we make our world.”
If
you are skeptical about this, look it up. Pick up any book that has
to do with changing or improving your life and you will see the
common denominator. When you start searching through the wisdom of
all the great writers and philosophers you will find the
common thread.
They
are all talking about changing your life by changing your
thoughts. Or in one form or another, they are trying to provide some
“new method” or “new technique” to help you
improve the way you think. No matter what technique or new method
comes along you will find the common thread.
Bottom
line is that if you want to change your life you have to change your
belief system. You’ve got to step into the Wheel of
Creation on a conscious level and make the changes you need to
set course for your desired destination.
However,
if you want things to remain exactly as they are, just keep doing
what you’re doing.
It’s
very simple, through the thoughts and beliefs that you allow
yourself to entertain; you create your life. Through the thoughts and
beliefs that you focus on most of the time you write your destiny.
Your beliefs are nothing but reinforced thoughts. Your knowingness is
nothing but fully realized beliefs or thoughts engrained in your
consciousness. All of them can be changed by interrupting the cycle
on a conscious level.
The
fact is that the Universal Law of Creation is operating in
your life, and everyone else’s, whether you accept it or
not. The only difference is, whether you are controlling it or it
is controlling you.
I
remember Napoleon Hill saying something about the fact that we have
absolute control over our thoughts. He had gone on to say that this
was one of the most important facts known to us because it made us
the master of our fate. And he was absolutely right! But the reality
is that we can have absolute control over our thoughts, but it
surely doesn’t mean that we do it!
The
Universal Law of Creation and the idea that we are responsible
for our own lives may be a little tough for some people to accept.
It is easy to accept responsibility for all the great things in
our lives, but not so easy to point the finger at ourselves for the
“shortcomings” or “failures.” It is not easy to
accept that the responsibility lies on you. That there are no more
excuses. No more blaming him, her, this, that or them. No, it’s
not easy.
If
you are having difficulty with this concept then think about this:
Do
you want your life to remain as is?
Wouldn’t
you love to be able to create your life the way you really want it?
Wouldn’t
you love to be able to create success in every area of your life? Not
wondering what life has in store for you in the future, but knowing
where you are going because you’re creating it on a conscious
level.
Think
about it! The Universal Law of Creation is a lot more
responsibility. But, it also means that when you get good at
controlling it, you can control your life better, and create your
life the way you want it, on a conscious level. In other words, you
can begin to create all of you goals, dreams, and desires. Is it
worth the added responsibility? You bet!
The
Universal Law of Creation is about the fact that if we choose
to do so, we can all consciously direct this incredible, invisible,
magical force called thought. And, with practice, we can all learn to
control and direct it to create all of our goals, dreams, desires and
truly reach our full potential. Or, we can just ignore this awesome
opportunity and let it create in our lives whatever rubbish happens
to pop into our heads. The choice of course, is always yours!
