How To Have The Energy You Want And Need Anytime!

Leave a comment

horizon halloween

“When it comes to having more energy or enough energy there is a secret. Yes, you can eat right and exercise right to feel more alive. This is important. Yet, there is something about energy you need to know and understand. You have all the energy you need at any time!

While you may balk at that statement it is accurate. Your body is not suffering from lack of energy you simply aren’t releasing or utilizing the energy you have properly. Proper breathing can help you to discover this.

I am not going to discuss, nutrition, exercise or breath work in this post. I am going to share with you another reliable approach to unlocking what is within you. Consider this for a moment: what happens to you when you get some really, great, life altering news?

Energy Begets Energy

Someone you love tells you they are going to get married, have a baby or you won some wonderful prize? What happens when you get some form of glad tidings? You get glad, right? You get excited, enthused, eager. You are happy and positive.

While it may seem like the news caused it, actually it didn’t. You released the enthusiasm and happiness. In an instant! One moment you felt one way in an instant you felt filled with joy! Perhaps, you did a high five, a chest bump, a happy dance, or hugged. You celebrated the news!

Now consider this: you had this burst, this release, this positive moment because you were excited by what you heard or saw, or read or… Your state changed, your being changed. I know you have had moments like this because we all have. It is called being human.

The More You Have The More You Get

You may have to search your memory to recall but if you are honest you know this is accurate. Before you go off into, ‘yeah but’, if that is something you typically do, stop and recall the moment. Fully live it for a while, if you are able. Enjoy it. Notice in doing this you may actually feel some or all of those very same feelings.

Isn’t that cool? Whenever we recall a marvelous state OR for that matter a less than glorious one we tend to feel the same way. It’s true. Think about the person who had an incident in traffic in the morning with an ‘ass’ and how each time they tell it throughout the day and into the evening they continue to get really mad.

The incident is past in the outer world but alive in the inner. Our neurology works this way. We feel part or all of a past prior experience through vivid recall. This is why remembering sad events make us sad or cry and why remembering happy ones cause us to feel the happy. It’s mind/body memory. It’s our neural pathways.

The More You Do The More You Can Do

Our thoughts make a huge difference. If you want to feel more energy and more alive then you must think the thoughts that release that in you. What we think about we bring about. We can change our emotional states by changing what we think about.

We change how we feel and what we can do and accomplish by changing our thinking to serve us. Your thoughts should serve you. You should not be a servant to your thoughts. Remember this! Now, if you want more energy do the following. Get excited! Get eager!

You must be enthused about yourself, the day, what you are doing, who you are seeing. You must get excited and be eager and happy. Thought precedes action and feeling. People can tell what you are thinking by your outside demeanor. You can tell if another person is positive or negative, happy or sad, a winner or a loser by looking.

You Are Where Your Thoughts Take You

Okay, it really isn’t fair to judge or call names but it is true, isn’t it? You can tell if someone has something going for him or her or not. It is based on the inner life that is reflected. The look in the eye. The carriage or the body, the movements, the sound of voice. Tell tale signs, body language, reveal the inner life.

Anytime you want to release energy get excited about something inside. Another way, is to each day, vigorously, out loud (in private) shout, chant, enthusiastically repeat your positive affirmations. You can look in the mirror for extra oomph! The military understands this and it is a huge part of their training and conditioning.

Chant your mantras out loud. ‘I feel wonderful! I am incredible! Life is great! I can do anything! I am capable and confident! Life is grand! Everything always works out for the best!’ Those are just samples you have your own. You do this five or ten minutes, or do it on your commute to work in your car and you will feel different.

The Results You Get, Your Feelings, Reveal Your Thinking

Do this at least two times a day for no less than 30 days and you will find your life changing. It is said a lie repeated enough becomes substituted for the truth. Even if you don’t believe it at first you do it loud enough, long enough, and you will. You will change your conditioning and what you believe is possible.

To be successful you need to make things an automatic reliable positive habit. You need to replace the habits that limit you or cause you to have lackluster results. If you want more energy you can instantly have it. IF you don’t believe it do the exercise I just suggested for at least 30 days. Then evaluate. BUT do it fully and completely!

If you want things in your life to change you must change things in your life. You must shake it up and loosen the hold the old thinking has on you. Then replace it with positive, powerful, productive, new thinking that supports and encourages you in getting what you want. Thought comes first. You want energy you can have it!

Transformation Happens The Instant You Make A Decision

You already have it. Unleash the energy within you. While you are at it unleash your inner genius and inner power. Unleash your inner charm and charisma. Unleash your inner confidence. You think you lack anything you do not! It is there inside you wanting to get out, hidden, kept captive, by layers of old thinking and behaving.

You can let it out and change your world. You can transform yourself from a can’t do person to a can do one! You can dream big and make your dreams come true. You can walk the planet as a victor and champion. Others will look and take notice. Or you can remain the same. The choice is yours! Decided today!” Rex Sikes

Be glad and celebrate this day!

“I’m just saying…

that some people claim…

we have beliefs that keep us stuck and these are hard to change.

You do know this

do you not?

People claim that our paradigms and our beliefs

conscious or unconscious beliefs

limit us and keep us stuck

or prevent us from being who we truly are.

Do you believe this?

Because

That…

is another belief.

Do you realize this?

Keep in mind

WHATEVER you think

you make it so!

If you can or can’t

If it is easy or not

If there is abundance or lack

is all up to what you think.

You

ONLY you

create your reality.

The world is cruel or friendly

that is up to you.

Whatever excuse you have

whomever or whatever you blame

whether you find pleasure of pain

ease or difficulty

think it is possible or impossible

limited by your paradigms or free

all are just more thoughts or beliefs.

Your beliefs

either allow or prevent you.

Bad habits are difficult to break

it is too tough to change

it takes lots of work to transform

others can succeed but I can’t

are all just beliefs.

You do realize this, don’t you?

Do they have power?

Perhaps.

Perhaps the only power they have

is the power you give them.

If they remain in the dark

from there yes perhaps they control you.

But can you change them?

Is it difficult to change them or easy?

Will it take a long time or a short time?

The answers to these questions are found

in your beliefs.

Do you realize this?

Whatever your answer

you answer

from your belief set.

It will be as easy and quick and pleasant

as you decide it will be.

Whatever it will be – you create it.

So create it to be how you want it

and allow yourself to be pleasantly surprised.

Become the master of your beliefs

do not let them be your master.

You decide how you will be

decide what you will do

you decide what you will have.

Determine what your life will be

and live it!

Make

believe

it is simple

easy fun delightful enjoyable.

Believe what you want

and what serves you to

live how you want.

Is it easy to do?

You decide that.

You do realize this – do you not?

You might be surprised at how

simple and quick transformation can be.

Celebrate and delight!” Rex Sikes

Make this day incredible!

The Secret Is To Make The World Conform To Your Ideal

Leave a comment

horizons - fence blue sky

“How do we make things happen? How do we create? How do we manifest? How do we attract good things to us? Let’s explore what Neville Goddard had to say about this today. It is quite profound.

He said:  ‘Master it and make your world conform to the ideal you want to experience.’

I love this! Make the world conform to your experience. Our upbringing is just the opposite. We are taught how to experience the world and that outer factors determine what happens to us.

You Determine What Is And What Will Be

Whether it is a good or bad day depends on the weather, the stock market, the parents or children, the boss, spouse, the clerk at the store.

Make the world conform to your experience. The outer conform to the inner. Yes, it is time we begin to think this way much more! Oh wait, I love the next part. Especially, cool!

‘Stop thinking of, and start thinking from.’

WOW consider that. Stop thinking of and start thinking from. Stop thinking of your dream as off in the future but think of it as right now. It is in your present. Already fulfilled.  Some day never arrives but now is right here.

Napoleon Hill said, ‘If you can conceive it and believe it you can achieve it’. Imagine that for a second. Whatever you can conceive and believe you can achieve. You wouldn’t be able to imagine it if it were not possible. Make the impossible, possible now.

Stop Thinking Some Day And Start Thinking Already Done

The Wright Brothers wanted to fly and so they did. As far as we know it had never been done before. They imagined doing it and they did it. We made it to the moon because someone thought it possible.

‘All things are possible to him who believes, therefore learn the art of believing and persuade yourself it is true.’ Neville says. The Bible says, ‘all things are possible’ to the person who believes.

We have been brought up believing the outside dictates the inner when in fact, the truth is the exact opposite. The inner determines the outside results.

What you have going on right now, your circumstances, are merely the result of your previous thinking. If you don’t like your circumstances it is time to change you thinking. Wouldn’t you agree?

Believe It Is Possible And Open The Door To What Can Be

Neville continues: ‘One day a friend told me that when she was a child, her father would say: “If you have but a dollar and it was necessary for you to spend it, do so as if it were a dry leaf, and you the owner of a boundless forest.”

If one really knows how to pray, he could spend his dollar and then reproduce it again. You see, this world is brought into being by man’s imagination, so it is very important to learn the secret of prayer. ‘

How cool is that. The world is brought into being by man’s imagination. We know this is accurate. Thought precedes action. All human invention was first an idea.

We have created the world we live in from our thoughts. Tomorrow will be based on the ideas we have today. Where else do inventions come from? Everything that is from humans originates in the mind.

You Are Where Your Thoughts Have Brought You

‘If you are still desiring, stop it right now! Ask yourself what it would be like, were your desire a reality. How would you feel if you were already the one you would like to be?

The moment you catch that mood, you are thinking from it. And the great secret of prayer is thinking from, rather than thinking of.’

Neville is awesome!

Imagine the end result. Imagine the good we desire as already ours, already manifested. See, hear and feel it as having already happened and FEEL how marvelous it feels as a result. Live the end result in your minds and feel the incredible feelings.

You Will Be Where Your Thoughts Take You

‘Anchored here, you know where you live, your bank balance, job, creditors, friends, and loved ones – as you are thinking from this state. But you can move to another state and give it the same sense of reality, when you find and practice the great secret of prayer. ‘

When you move to that other reality you find that other reality is how things work. It may be difficult to believe because we have believed the other way for so long. Our beliefs determine whether we can or can’t whether we will or won’t.

So said, Henry Ford. ‘If you think you can or you think you can’t you are right’. Remember, the RAS proves it to be.

We think the outside controls us. The one thing humans can absolutely control is their thoughts and the mind. We can control what we focus on. We can control our decisions.

We are, we can be, and we definitely should be. Become the master your fate and the captain of your soul. It is within us and within our control. It is within you. Start living it.

Act As If Everything Already Is Completed

Imagine ‘from’ not ‘of’. Imagine and live ‘from’!  Consider this: If everything were perfect how would you feel? Imagine that. If you had the perfect life, the perfect you, what would it, what would you, look like, sound like and feel like? Most importantly, what would you be feeling?

Live most of your day with those wonderful feelings and you can make your dreams reality. Live feeling the end result and you will bring it about.

I’ll leave you today with some more from Neville and Napoleon.

‘Persistent imagination, centered in the feeling of the wish fulfilled, is the secret of all successful operations. This alone is the means of fulfilling the intention.

Every stage of man’s progress is made by the conscious, voluntary exercise of the imagination. Then you will understand why all poets have stressed the importance of controlled, vivid imagination.’

‘Whatever you can conceive and believe you can achieve.’ “Rex Sikes

Neville quoted from “The Secret Of Prayer’ & ‘How To Use The Imagination’

Celebrate and enjoy this day!

Without This Ingredient Your Struggle Will Continue

1 Comment

horizons red plants

“I’d like to discuss that which makes your dreams come true. It is the special ingredient, when added to desire, makes you unstoppable. It makes you absolutely capable of creating what you want. To discuss this I will use some verses most people are familiar with. I hope you won’t mind. I think the verse speaks volumes to this point.

‘Faith without works is dead’,  is usually understood to mean good works. If you believe in love, for example, then you should behave in loving ways. You should do things for others that exemplify love. Others should be able to tell what you believe in by your actions. If you speak about love but are not loving your faith is dead.

By Their Fruits You Shall Know Them

You know the tree is an apple or orange tree by the fruit it bears. So if you love others, you may be known as a loving person. I want to add to these definitions when it comes to living the kind of life we want. I want to add to it because there is hope and there is faith and there is a difference between the two.

I may hope to get a bicycle for a holiday gift. I am not sure I will get one but I have a great wish. This is different from I expect to get a bicycle. With hope I may or may not get it and I sure want it. With the expectation of getting the bicycle, I sure want it and I have every confidence that I will receive it. I believe it. I have faith. I know.

With hope I am not certain but with faith I am certain. With faith their is no question. It has been said that ‘faith is seeing the invisible’. With faith we see what is not yet apparent. One might look at the chaotic world around them, but see a brighter day. One may look into the heart of a troubled child but see a great leader.

When A Fearless Heart Believes Miracles Happen

With faith one looks forward, anticipating what is to come, or what is already there, to be revealed. In faith one sees the circumstances that one intends to bring about rather than what is presently there. It is not a wish it is a knowing. It is confidence. When you know something is going to happen there is no dispute, there is no doubt.

I believe that if you have faith in yourself, if you believe you will make you dreams come true, if you have faith that it will happen no matter what then you look and behave a certain way. You believe in the invisible, and do not let circumstances dissuade or prevent you. You are known by your works, by your fruit.

Many people think a person of faith believes in an unseen power, meaning God, or powers of the universe, and that is fine. I let people place their faith where they wish. For purposes of this discussion I am placing the locus of faith on, or in, the human, you and me. I am suggesting that when your faith in yourself is unwavering you can accomplish incredible things.

With Faith All Things Are Possible

We will continue to discuss this in upcoming posts because it is an important point in manifesting the future you want. You must be able to see it, believe it is yours to have, and that you will have it. Faith is about what IS and works in the present. Faith is not about the future as I’ll share soon.

‘Faith without works is dead’ means faith is active. It is action. ‘By their fruits you will know them’ means you can recognize a person with faith by actions and behaviors. If you have faith you think, speak and act in specific ways others without faith, don’t. People will see in you that difference.

Faith is immediate. For example, If you are confident you act confident right now. You will also be confident in the future. It is who you are. Faith is freedom from fear, worry, and doubt. We need to cultivate faith to live the life we want. From that faith the life we want will come to be. Faith is the seed. Plant it! ” Rex Sikes

Delight in this day!

The Easiest And Quickest Way To Make Your Life Wonderful!

Leave a comment

horizon orange flowers orange sky

“If you could find a way to easily make all of your life wonderful you would do it, wouldn’t you? If there was one simple thing to remember to do each day you’d do it, right?

If it meant making a huge difference for how much you enjoyed your experience would you put it into practice and apply it? You may have heard it before but unless you are actively applying it, you are missing out.

What is it you can do that will have such a great effect? It is the practice of gratitude for every thing. It is actively appreciating all aspects of your life and continuing to do it. Here is what to do:

You Got To Accentuate The Positive

Find, validate and repeat the validation for things, people, circumstances, events, and belongings, you are grateful for because this practice reinforces it. Repeat, repeat, repeat.

Celebrate everything you can find to be grateful about over and over again. It builds the habit of finding good things, and feeling good about them. You get back more of what you put out!

As you do this you spend more time feeling good and grateful. What you focus on expands so your own brain will help you find and make connections to other things you can appreciate too.

Remember, the Reticular Activating System (RAS), looks to match the outer with what you have going on inside. It’s job is to provide you evidence for what you already believe on the inside.

Good taste dictates that you believe and think wonderful thoughts on the inside. You find more and more. Like attracts like. Birds of a feather flock together. In finding more your feel better and better.

The More We Do The Easier It Becomes And The More We Can Do

Pretty good deal, if you ask me. You begin to find areas to be grateful about things you perviously might never have considered. Your ability to look, find, consider, validate and celebrate expands even more. You get better at it and build a reliable skill.

The more you find to appreciate the more you transform every aspect of your life, past and present. By living in gratitude and celebration you open the doorway and floodgates of the future.

Life, for you, becomes a celebration. When you live thinking and feeling this way you get back more of what you have. Remember, like attracts like and birds of a feather… You live in increase!

You create and attract a most marvelous life. When outer events throw you curve balls, at any time, you are more prepared and resourceful to respond in positive and powerful ways.

Perfect Practice Repeated Again And Again Makes Perfect

Because you have emphasized and practiced feeling grateful, because you have made it a habit, it automatically works for you. You really do become what you think about.

Remember, what they recommend on shampoo bottles. ‘Wash, rinse and repeat’. The practice for your good mental health and well being is the same in essence. Cleanse your mind with appreciation and repeat then do it again.

Then repeat and repeat and repeat. Rehearse the skill you want to develop as an actor does. Practice the skill again and again, drill it, as an athlete does.

Act as if you are already living the life you want, in your mind, and that life can become yours. What you think about you bring about. Fill your mind with all the positive good you can find and focus on it.

If most of your thoughts, most of your time are celebrations if most of your time is spent thinking and feeling grateful you transform your life into a life most grand. Use the 80/20 rule. Think 80% positive!

Luck Is The Crossroad Where Preparation And Opportunity Meet

You continue to find blessings because that is how your mind and being now operates. When you are optimistic and happy your mind works clearer and better. You’ll only discover this through application.

You will find more opportunity and advantages than you can ever imagine. Your brain will look to match the good things on the outside with those you imagine on the inside. That is its job!

What have you done and learned in doing this? That you can and that you did take charge of your mind and control of your thoughts. Your entire life improves because you made and effort and followed through.

What was your effort? Count your blessings and repeat. Celebrate and delight in things that bring you joy. Keep looking and finding things to appreciate. A pretty good trade off, don’t you think?” Rex Sikes

Make your day a celebration!

If You Do This It Is No Wonder Why You Struggle To Get Ahead!

horizons a-dark-day-phil-koch

“I had the misfortune or the good fortune to overhear a conversation the other day. I’ll explain my opening statement later. I knew the parties involved. I know many things about the parties and the nature of the conversation.

One person was emphatically reciting, to the other,  what is wrong with the government and the legislation and the economy and why and how it prevents him from moving his business forward. I have heard him recount these things for a number of years now.

Times have changed but his reasons for remaining the same haven’t. Said another way, times have changed but his excuses have not. Since, I have known the him I have know the person to maintain why progress is impossible even though I know others who have moved onward and prospered.

What You Think About You Bring About

I thought to myself. ‘He is getting exactly what he is saying.’ It is as if he is reciting from a script. In fact, I use the word reciting, because that is what he is doing. He is repeating the same arguments he has made for quite some time. Nothing new. Same old, same old.

The sayings, ‘what you think about you bring about.’ AND ‘You become what you think about’, definitely apply. He has convinced himself, through autosuggestion, that it is everyone’s fault but his. His brain (RAS) seeks and finds more examples ‘out there’ of how he is right.

We don’t like being wrong or uncomfortable so our brain does whatever it can to keep us the same and make us feel good about ourselves, even if that is what is wrong with ourselves. We’ll take right over having to change nearly every time.

Our beliefs, attitude, mindset, paradigm or thoughts, words and feelings, work to keep us the same. We need to be able to recognize when we hold ourselves back and keep ourselves struggling and what we need to do instead to move forward positively and productively.

We Build Habits Through Repetition Over Time

Autosuggestion is always ongoing. We are always suggesting, through our internal pictures or movies, our assertions and declarations and our feelings either things we want and the good in our life or things we don’t want and that which sucks.

We can’t escape autosuggestion we can only direct it. When we repeat again and again what we think about the world reinforces it. If we think things are bad and we aren’t capable to resolve it then that becomes our habitual script from which we behave. It becomes our habit. Changing our life means changing our scripts and habits.

We must first change our thoughts and feelings, what we repeat and live from in order to get the results we want to get. If we maintain the same things for decades we get to remain the same for decades good or bad. Sadly, most of us don’t know this so we stay stuck. Most of us rehearse and practice remaining stuck or the same when we could rehearse and practice what we want to be, do and have.

Speak Only To Bless, Heal And Prosper

Tongue in cheek I say misfortune or good fortune because, once again, I was exposed to his less than glorious rant. No biggie, though, life happens. I can take care of myself and my own thoughts. I need not be affected just because he is sour. A little exposure to the darker side isn’t going to harm me.

Obviously, it could if it were perpetual, as it is for him. My assessment is, he could move forward and do many wonderful things, though he is unable to presently notice that. He’d rather argue and defend his position if alternate ways of thinking and doing were presented. He will maintain his stance and his opposition, his opinion, which he calls fact.

I say good fortune because it is another reminder for myself to only speak what blesses, heals and prospers myself and others. I prefer my self talk to be supportive and encouraging. I prefer my declarations, my use of autosuggestion to be positive and lead me in productive ways.

What You See, Say, And Feel IS What You Get

And I say good fortune because it gave me material for today’s blog. Watch what you think and say and feel. Learn to focus on what you want and then create and attract that. Do not defend being stuck where you are at. Let go of excuses that prevent you from being all you can be. Think and speak only to bless, heal and prosper.

Yes, good fortune because it is also a reminder and lesson to me.” Rex Sikes

Make your day glorious!

It Is Easier To Change Things Than You Think

1 Comment

horizons blue

“We have been discussing beliefs. In my last post I mentioned that we would discuss changing beliefs. We can actually trade in our old limited ones for updates. It is easier than you may think. Instead of living from and getting poor results, we live from positive, powerful, tailor made beliefs and begin getting good results.

How do you change it? You tell yourself what you want to believe over and over and over again until you believe it! Repetition will make a habit. Our beliefs are only beliefs we have told ourselves again and again. Fortunately, though it seems difficult, beliefs can be easily changed.

Use the same method you did in the first place. Only this time chose a new, useful, positive belief that serves to get you what you want. Then repeat it again and again enthusiastically over time and you will come to believe it. THIS is how the military conditions minds.

Ask yourself, Directed Questions™ (see other posts on their use) and direct your mind to what you want. Ask again and again over time. Visualize yourself repeatedly already being, doing and having whatever it is you want. It is already yours. Act as if!

What you see you get! What you say you get! What you feel you get! Manage your imagination and see it fully! Manage your self talk and keep it nice. Speak only to bless, heal and prosper. Speak only to affirm what you want. Repeat your positive mantras over and over.

Feel it. Feel what it would feel like to have the perfect life. To already have the change you desire. Enjoy these feelings. Feel these feelings through out your day. Feel the best you can as much as you can. Think 80/20.

If you are feeling good and thinking good and speaking good 80% of your time I’d bet you are kicking serious butt. You are making your dreams come true. You are living an incredible life. AIM for it. You can make it happen. It is easy. DO IT. It is easier than you think.” Rex Sikes

Have a delightful day!

“We have been discussing beliefs. In my last post I mentioned that you are only one thought away from having what you want. I quoted Henry Ford.

‘Whether you think you can or you think you can’t; you are right.’

I mentioned the role of our Reticular Activating System. It finds proof for our beliefs.

I said, you are only a thought away!

Some readers, likely, thought, that is not true.

Others thought, yes, it is.

Some think, it is difficult to get what you want and unlikely.

Others think, it is easy and eminently possible.

And so it is!

Whichever you think you are right!

That IS Ford’s point!

What was your first thought? How did you react?

We’ll discuss how you change it the next time.” Rex SIkes

Have a beautiful day!

You Are Only One Thought Away From Making All Your Dreams Come True!

“Henry Ford said, ‘whether you think you can or you think you can’t; you are right!’ We have been discussing beliefs and the role of the Reticular Activating System (RAS), that part of your brain that looks for outer world matches to your inner world beliefs.

In other words, what you hold in your mind your brain actually finds evidence for. Driving home the point that Believing IS Seeing and not the other way around. We find evidence for what we already believe. We prove ourselves right. That is the job of the RAS.

Ford was correct. Whether you think you can or you think you can’t; you are right. You will find the evidence and prove yourself right either way. That should stop each of us and give us a great pause.

If I prove myself sad, poor, stuck, out of work, lackluster, disabled, morose IS that how I want to live? If my thoughts determine my results, perhaps, I should learn to manage my mind and change my thoughts? Don’t you think?

Either you live a life of can’t or a life of can. If you could have happiness, love, peace, fun, adventure, money wouldn’t you prefer that? My guess is most of us do even thought our lives run counter to what we wish for. The reason for that has been made clear.

We get the results in the outer world that we first create in our inner world. If we think we can’t we won’t. If we think we are undeserving, worthless and not entitled to wealth or happiness we will never get it, because we will instead, prove ourselves right.

Hmmm. I think I’d rather be wrong and rich! Wrong and happy! Wrong and in love with a partner, family and friends. I’d rather take control and make the positive, wonderful life happen. Because, if I think I can I am right! Wouldn’t you?

Do you realize you are only a thought away from having everything you wish and dream for? A thought away. Don’t you think it is time to take control and get and live the life you want? However you answer these questions YOU ARE RIGHT! The proof is forthcoming.

As for me, I prefer to live abundantly in all things. I believe I deserve it, as does everyone else. I believe it is all mine for the enjoying, as it is for you too. I prefer to make good things happen and live powerfully and positively. BECAUSE I CAN! SO CAN YOU! You are only one thought away!” Rex Sikes

Make your day count!

Tips To Make Good Things Happen For You!

Leave a comment

horizon green sky mountains purple

“How do we make things happen? How do we attract? How do we create? The process is quite simple. The fact is many people mess it up by getting in their own way. They believe it must be hard. They think, ‘it can’t be this simple’. So they go about proving themselves right.

After all the unconscious mind makes no judgements. The unconscious mind just agrees with you. If you think it is simple your unconscious says, ‘yep, it’s simple!’ If you think, ‘boy this is hard.’ Your unconscious thinks, ‘yep, boy this is hard!’ It’s job is to agree with you and find agreement with you out in the real world.

So how do you get what you want? How do you make it happen?

Visualize the good you desire in your life. See it, hear it, feel it. Imagine the good you want is already yours. You have it right now. NOT in the future, sometime, somewhere, but right here and now!

What You See Is What You Get

Affirm it.  The quickest way to be what you want to be is to say ‘I am’ what you want to be. Declare it. Affirm yourself to be it right now. Whatever follows ‘I am’ or ‘I have’ is your affirmation. Your mantra, that which you repeat over and over.

See it, visualize it fully, and declare it. What you think about you bring about! Feel all the wonderful feelings that accompany having it right now. Enjoy these feelings. Feel these and think about your desire. You become what you think about most.

For example. Imagine you played and won the lottery. You get a call that tells you in a couple weeks you are going to get a check for millions of dollars. How do you feel getting this news? I bet pretty good. I bet, too, you imagine many things you would do with that money. Right?

What You Say Is What You Get

Now consider this as well. NOTHING in your daily life has changed other than you got this news. Your life is exactly the same as it was before the news. The money is yours that is certain. BUT you do not have any of it yet. It is coming. BUT it is yours right now too. You can feel it. Your entire life changes. You vibrate with energy and enthusiasm.

These are the kind of feelings and expectations you want to have when it comes to your desires. You want to feel it already belongs to you and you are thrilled. It feels incredible! Savor and bask and enjoy these feelings. You know it is coming. There is nothing left to do but allow it to arrive. You expect it completely!

You live with eager anticipation because you now it is coming. You don’t doubt it because you know it is happening. You don’t have to pull yourself up by your own bootstraps to believe it because you know it is yours already. You accept it. ALL you have to actually do is receive it.

What You Feel Is What You Get

If you were just told you won the lottery you wouldn’t declare or think ‘someday I am going to be rich’ you’d think ‘I AM RICH! I AM SO RICH! I HAVE LOTS OF MONEY!’ You would state what you have (lots of money).  You would most likely ignore present circumstances, except you’d imagine paying off any bills and still being rich.

You have not yet received as much as an actual penny but you know the money is yours. Yet, you don’t let that deter you from feeling marvelous and celebrating. In an instant your life is entirely transformed.

This is how we make it happen. We live it first within our imagination fully. What we think about we bring about. Our powerful, joyful enthusiastic, thrilled feelings open the floodgates. Our detailed visualization and our declarations pinpoint what we want. We make it happen from the inside out.

From Within So Without

That is it. Sadly, people second guess, doubt, give up, try to make it work, figure it out, add extra effort, and all that does is muck it up and push it away. We see it and claim it! It is knowing that it is ours that creates the excitement. If you doubt it you don’t know it is yours yet.

If you are having trouble believing then create smaller more believable things. Pick something you can believe happens and make it happen. For example you may find it difficult to believe you can be a millionaire in a couple years but you don’t have any problem imagining that you could earn two hundred extra dollars in the next couple months.

Start with making the 200 happen. Then increase it. Only as large and as quickly as you are able to maintain your belief in it. Pick up wins as you go a long. That will convince you of your power to make things happen. How can you tell you believe it? How do you feel? If you feel ecstatic you do. If you feel less than glorious it isn’t likely you do.

Last thing for today. Don’t specify how it is to arrive. My example was you won the lottery. If you put all your hope and faith into winning the lottery I wish you luck. You might or you might not. If you don’t and you get discouraged then you will have truly lost out.

Relax, Let Go And Transform

Don’t specify how it happens. Simply, trust that it does. How it does, you don’t know and you could care less. Get out of your own way. Don’t put any conditions on it. Simply, enjoy it and vibrate positively with it. The less you dictate how it must be the quicker you will get it.

Let go and give in. Allow. Receive. Enjoy. Celebrate between now and whenever it arrives. Be happy, delighted, positive and patient. You did the creative work inside now celebrate and let it all come together. We’ll discuss more in future posts. Meanwhile, live, be happy, celebrate and delight!

The quickest way to get what you want is to be it! Be filled with gratitude and joy. May all your dreams and goals come true.” Rex Sikes

Delight in your day!
