The Power by Rhonda Byrne

I’m sure that most of you reading this have seen The Secret.  If not, you don’t need to see it to get a lot from this book.

I liked the book for a couple of reasons, one of which was NOT because it gave me a secret power to change everything in my life, but instead gave me a some new ways to look at things in my life and our world.

The insights from the book are nothing new, but they are well stated and are presented in a way that I find very inspiring!  And don’t we all need a little inspiration once in a while.

I didn’t read the book, but instead listened to it.  I find that books that are meant to inspire and insight action from the reader are best to be listened to.  Maybe it’s just me, but went to Audible to download the book and saw it was read by the author, I knew it was going to be good.

Rhonda has many stories that highlight how a person can really change their life by shifting their perception of life and the universe.

One little perception shift that I thought was clever dealt with having abundance in your life.  Rhonda said to always align the bills in your wallet with the face up.

The perception shift being that you view the face of the bills as you have abundance.  Whenever you take your money out you are always consciously arranging your bills with the face up thus enforcing your perception of having abundance.

I know it is simple, but when you realize that so much we do is unconscious, this simple act brings our conscious mind into play; it causes us to take action and we all know that action is what really brings about changes!

The biggest benefit of this book is inspiration.  In fact, my suggestion to you would be to join Audible and get a monthly dose of inspiration.  You will be amazed at the selection of forward thinking audio books that you will find at Audible.

The Subconscious Mind: Your Untapped Power

I’m sure you have heard about the subconscious mind. But I bet you didn’t know that your subconscious is really running the show.

What I mean by this is that whenever you have a conscious thought, that thought was influenced by what is contained in your subconscious.
Subliminal Programming

Let me give you an example. Let’s say that when you were a child big dog jumped on you and scared the daylights out of you. Now as an adult you have a fear of big dogs or maybe all dogs. The question is why? Is it because every dog you see can hurt you or is it that when you had that experience as a child your subconscious was programmed to believe you needed to fear dogs?

If you think about it we are all products of our past events. The more traumatic or most consistent events become patterns that manifest in our outer life.

The cool thing is that you can change your beliefs; you can put your subconscious into action through suggestions from the conscious mind or from suggestions from an outside source.

Have you ever watched a commercial on TV only to find yourself buying that product the next day! An outside source (the commercial) made a suggestion and you acted on it. Now it may have been a conscious decision on your part or when you saw the product in the store it may have triggered memory of the commercial and that influenced you to buy it.

Now I know that seeing a commercial once or even 10 times won’t make you get up and walk like a zombie to the store, but all the information coming at us in our society is being processed by our subconscious.

The bottom line is that all of us are influenced by outside sources – the news, commercials, spouses, parents, billboards and on and on). Some of these influences are positive, many are not. The real problem as I see it is that we have little control over many of these influences.

The solution to the problem is to start introducing your own influencers into your daily routine and removing others.

Here is an easy way to reduce the outside influence in your life.

When you watch TV or listen to the radio, turn down the volume during the commercials. Have a book sitting next to you so you can read during the commercials, that way you won’t get the images stuck in your subconscious.

Think about this, in an hour TV show, you will get about 20 minutes of commercials! Let’s say you watch an hour of TV a day. Over the course of a year, that’s 122 hours of commercials…5 full days of companies programming you to buy their stuff! Not what I want in my head.

We all have deep seated beliefs (subconscious programs) about how life work, what we can accomplish, how much money we should make, etc and these beliefs need to be replaced with positive, life affirming beliefs that will carry you to the life you deserve.

What you need to do is to actively start putting positive stuff into your subconscious. By doing this you will be quite literally programming positive events to manifest in your life.

This is exactly what I had in mind when I created the Subliminal-Library. I decided to create a powerful set of audios that would program your subconscious mind for a beautiful life.

The Power of a Positive Attitude

I am going to ask you to something very weird right now. First of all, I want you to listen to your thoughts. Now tell me, what thoughts fill your head? Would you label them as positive, or negative?

Now let’s say you are walking down the street with these thoughts. Do you think anyone who would meet you would be able to tell you what’s on your mind?

The answer to number one is up to you. But you may not realize the answer number two.  Although people will not be able to tell you exactly what you think, they will more or less have an idea of how you are feeling.

Here’s another question. When you enter a party filled with friends, do they all fall silent as if something terrible had happened? Or does everybody there perk up as if waiting for something exciting to happen?

You know what? The answer to all these depends on your frame of mind.

Thoughts are very powerful. They affect your general attitude. The attitude you carry reflects on your appearance, too – unless, of course, you are a great actor.

And it doesn’t end there. Your attitude can also affect people around you.

The type of attitude you carry depends on you. It can be either positive or negative.

Positive thoughts have an uplifting effect on you and others. They are admittedly invigorating. Plus, the people around the person carrying positive thoughts are usually energized by this type of attitude.

Negative thoughts on the other hand have a sapping effect on other people. Aside from making you look gloomy and sad, negative thoughts can turn a festive gathering into a funeral wake.

A positive attitude attracts people, while a negative attitude repels them. People tend to shy away from those who carry a negative attitude.

You have much to gain from a very positive attitude. For one, studies have shown that a positive attitude promotes better health. Those with this kind of attitude also have more friends. projecting a positive attitude also helps one to handle stress and problems better than those who have a negative attitude.

A positive attitude begins with a healthy self-image. If you will love the way you are and are satisfied, confident, and self-assured, you also make others are around feel the same way.

A negative attitude, on the other hand, has, of course, an opposite effect. So, carrying a negative attitude has a twofold drawback. You feel bad about yourself, and you make others feel the same way.

If you want to have a positive attitude, you have to feature healthy thoughts. This is probably very hard to do nowadays since, all around us, the media feeds us nothing but negative thoughts. A study shows that for every 14 things a parent says to his or her child, only one is positive. This is truly a saddening thought.

If you want a healthier outlook in life, you need to think happy thoughts, and you have to hear positive things as well. So, what can you do? Well, for starters, you could see a funny movie, you could play with children, spend some time telling jokes with friends. All these activities fill you with positive stimuli, which in turn promotes positive attitude.

One of the best ways that I have found to create  a positive outlook on life is to use brainwave entrainment audios.  Take a second on go to the Brainwave Library.  Here you can download two free brainwave sessions that will get you started on a more positive outlook!

This positive attitude you now carry can be of benefit to other people. Sometimes when other people feel down, the thing people mostly do is try to give them advice. But sometimes, all they need is somebody to sit by them, and listen to them. If you have a positive attitude you may be able to cheer them up without even having to say anything.

As always, if you are beset by troubles, even in your darkest hour, focus on the good things in life, listen to your brainwave session and you will have hope. Problems become something you can overcome.
