The fight going on with these two brutes, Practical Pete and Mystical Manny, is a fight myself and many of the readers of this blog face inside their head everyday. I usually error on the side of mystical Manny, because I think the realm of thought is an extremely power vehicle. However, the problem remains. We live in a world governed by Newtonian physics. We cannot turn a submachine gun into a piece of bread (a least not instantly). Even with a vast understanding of quantum mechanics which indicates all possibilities exist at any point of existence at all times past and future, we still cannot travel back in time, or transform our realities in an instant. At some point in the consciousness of humanity may be able to accomplish these feats without a second thought. For now, we can do our best to understand where these two great fighters meet and maximize our potential!
The physical world is much closer to the spiritual realm than we give it credit.
When attempting to accomplish great things, overcome addictions, find love, create something new, or any other endeavor set out upon in order to maximize your life the question must be asked: what is the best way to get the results I desire? Should I meditate all day and pray the results come about? Should I go out and just start randomly knocking on doors until I find an answer to my problem?
In order to maximize your results a progression must be followed that involves both thinking and action. At the very heart lies DECISION. You have been given the right by God to choose your path. The very first story in many holy books is of Adam and Eve. The story of Adam and Eve introduces the most fundamental element of the human experience is introduced: Decision. While we cannot choose many of the factors in life (although some speculate our souls may have chosen certain “lives” to live to enable their spiritual growth) we have complete control over our thoughts.
Once you have decided the path you want to take in life, our thoughts may then be emotionalized with desire. This process draws us to our desires through the law of attraction. Through single-minded desire with a definite purpose our brain and imagination begins to create ways to fulfill that desire.
Action then is inevitable. When desire has been fueled strong enough it often feel like we are not even trying, but rather fulfilling what we are meant to do! The “hard work” is mental. Knowledge of these principles is the beginning of getting the limited garbage out of your mind. I speak of this, and love to talk about it, because it has changed my life dramatically.
Maximizing your life is a process that will only get better and better. Thoughts and actions are not contrary to one another, but exist on a continuum that we call life.
