Is Belief and Trust Really Necessary For Achieving Your Goals?
~ by David Gikandi

http://SecretsOfSelfImprovement.com

They say you can achieve it if you believe it. They also say that trust is
necessary. But you know what; they also say that whether you believe it or
not, whether you trust it or not, certain laws of the universe will always
work as they are designed to. Your belief and trust is, in regard to these
laws, unnecessary.

You could say that there is a certain Current of Life that will run a
certain way whether you believe it or not. When you swim against this
current, it is a struggle, and then you definitely do need belief and trust
to achieve your goals. When you swim with the current, when you are in the
flow, you become prosperous effortlessly, and belief and trust is not
necessary. At that point, only desire is required, and that desire calls
forth the achievement of your goals, effortlessly.

One definition of trust, in regards to what we are talking about here, is
the believing that you will be given what you ask for. Ask and you shall
receive. It is a very simple statement; no need to complicate it. The
universe always brings forth what you hold in your mind. Call it the Law of
Attraction or Cause and Effect. You become what you think about. And what
you become, what you are, is a state of being that attracts the conditions
that define that state of being. This becomes your life.

Not believing that you will receive whatever you ask for is lack of trust.
Therefore, lack of trust is a belief that works against you because your
thoughts will tend to say to you "you will not get what you desire". And so
shall it be. So lack of trust is definitely something that will bring
thoughts that create realities that are against your desires.

But imagine now that you are moving into trust, becoming more trusting of
yourself and the universe as a whole. Finally, you become fully trusting -
and then you discover something magical. That the system works very simply.
You are so you have. You think so you create. It is a simple system. It
works whether you trust it or not. When you don't trust, you come from a
state of being attacked and defeated and you think thoughts of lacking. And
because you are so and you think so, the system creates so, exactly (and so
you end up with "evidence" that "proves" that you cannot trust the
universe).

But when you are in a state of knowing abundance and thinking that way, the
system creates from those same thoughts. And you end up with your desires
being achieved easily. It is a simple input output system. What you put in
is what you get out. So when you fully trust, you start to see the magic -
that trust is unnecessary. The system will always process your input and
produce corresponding output exactly. Do you see this? Trust is not
necessary, but if you are distrustful, then trust is necessary - not for the
sake of the system, but for your sake.

Lack of trust is a crippler, trust is the crutches to help you learn to walk
and heal your cripple, and when you can walk fully healed, you drop the
crutches, you realize that trust is unnecessary, because you see finally
that the system works always. At that point you move from the idea and
conviction that the person with the request, the request itself, and the
fulfiller of the request are three separate things, and you finally see and
experience that they are all the same One thing. The observer, the observed
and the observation are One.

Let's talk about belief now. This is even simpler. Illusions depend on
belief for them to exist, for they are "made up" by the thoughts held by the
believer. But Reality exists whether you believe it or not. It just Is. So
you don't have to believe, as long as you don't believe against. You don't
have to believe, as long as you don't believe against. You don't have to
believe that you will get the car of your dreams, as long as you don't
believe you won't. As long as you desire and dream of the car, it will come,
but only as long as you don't believe it won't. Again, belief is
unnecessary, unless you hold a contrary thought. If you hold contrary
thoughts, belief is necessary (it is another crutch). Don't forget that a
belief is merely a thought that you have over and over. A belief is simply a
thought you have repeatedly.

So what is necessary on all occasions, whether you are talking about belief
or trust? Imagination, desire, is the only necessary ingredient. That is
all. Imagination, vision, desire - that is all that must be there. And if it
is clear and unobstructed, even without belief or trust it will work
perfectly. Whatever you imagine and desire is magnetized to you naturally,
scientifically, and you don't have to do anything to make these laws work
for you.

It is very true that you can have anything if you believe it. But remember,
if you are having trouble finding your faith, simply look instead at the
system, and you will see that faith is not even necessary, once you know
that the system has been created by the Creator to work perfectly all the
time, regardless. What you put in is what you get out. Your job, then, is
simply not to think against yourself, and as long as you don't think against

yourself, all your desires will naturally manifest. I wish you the highest

possible achievements. If you wish to know more about all this, see

Your Energy Level Determines Your Luck

Many people think that luck is something that is purely random, unpredictable and difficult to control. That is because they do not know what luck really is. When you are able to know the true definition of luck, you can learn the whole science behind this phenomena and gain control over it.

Luck is another aspect of your reality and perhaps the most powerful and important one. The more conscious and aware you become of the elements of your reality, the more of a conscious and powerful creator you will be.

Your luck is your psychokinetic resonance with the environment you are in. Like everything else, luck is an energy. It is something that is quantifiable not in physical but in nonphysical ways. You can quantify it physically only in terms of its physical manifestations in your life. Luck is dependent on time, place and consciousness.

When you are lucky, you are in mental and emotional resonance with your surroundings.

When you are unlucky, it is the opposite. The level of resonance is the level of your luck.

Luck is also a feeling or emotion because emotion is energy in motion. When you are lucky, you are also feeling lucky. Your feeling is your vibration and therefore you are vibrating luck and feeing it. You feel and experience that everything is working for you when you are lucky.

You feel that everything is working against you when you aren't lucky. A state of vibrational harmony or disharmony with your environment is the whole explanation for this. You either feel that things are in a flow or things are disrupted.

Your energy level determines your luck vibration. At times when you are feeling low of energy, that is also when your luck vibration is at a low point. You are more likely to make careless mistakes, become more accident prone and flop up in some way. When you are feeling high of energy, that is also when your luck vibration is in a high state. You are sharper, clearer and more in the zone. You seem to be able to do amazing things in ways that baffle others to the point that makes you seem very skillful or lucky.

Actually luck and skill are one. The more in energetic resonance you are with your environment, the more your skill will work and the luckier you'll seem. You can always observe that when the best are in action, they always seem to have both their skill and the situation working for them. You can never separate luck from skill because after all, they are both part of the same thing called psychokinetic resonance with the environment. Your skill is your capability of handling the situation which depends on luck.

Once you know that luck is an energy, you can depend on it in that manner. You cannot depend on luck that is considered to be random chance occurrence. You can't depend on such things because they do not exist. A non existent thing cannot be depended upon. Everything that exists is a part of consciousness and can be controlled by consciousness. Therefore luck exist and is fully under your control. Knowing this, you never have to fear of bad luck because you can make all things work in your favor.

Since luck is dependent on energy, you have to pay attention to your level of energy in every moment and take charge of it. When you notice that your energy level is low, be more careful with the things you do especially if they are important. You may make mistakes that usually never happen, and wonder how could you be so unlucky or stupid.

You may realize that every time you have made careless or stupid mistakes that seem to be like bad luck, it was when your energy level was indeed at a low point.

Lack of focus and lack of being adequately present minded also creates bad luck. Do you notice that when you make stupid mistakes in situations, you felt that you were not ready? What do you mean by not being ready? You mean that you weren't focusing properly or fully enough, and you weren't being adequately present minded. The first step to controlling luck is to be present minded. If you want to be lucky, you must put your focus in the activity you are doing. Or else you'd create bad luck and mistakes.

Your level of focus and placing your mind in the present determines your psychokinetic resonance with the environment. Focusing is how you channel energy towards a particular time and place. When your focus is here, your energy is channeled here and you experience luck here. Where you focus is where you generate luck in. That is why the secret of success is focus. Successful people are lucky people because they have more focus than the unsuccessful and unlucky ones. Focus to be a lucky one.

Seek to maintain a high level of energy or vibration at all times. People who experience their luck going up and down throughout the day allow their energy to go up and down. People who experience their luck being consistently high all the time maintain their energy and vibration at a high level. At times when your energy is low, seek to increase it to a higher level again. Do not continue doing any work at a low level of energy because you will tend to make mistakes. Recharge your energy first, then work.

Be aware of negative thoughts and feelings that will bring your level of energy or vibration lower. Positive thoughts and feelings bring your energy level and vibrations higher. Therefore choose to think positive thoughts and feel positive emotions, and you will experience more luck and success in your life. You can also increase your luck when you are more intent of succeeding in a certain situation. Your energy of intent will energize you with the luck you need, and that is why willful intent bends the world to you.

THE WORLDS MOST UNUSUAL THERAPIST

"Two years ago, I heard about a therapist in Hawaii who cured a complete ward of criminally insane patients--without ever seeing any of them. The psychologist would study an inmate's chart and then look within himself to see how he created that person's illness. As he improved himself, the patient improved.

When I first heard this story, I thought it was an urban legend. How could anyone heal anyone else by healing himself? How could even the best self-improvement master cure the criminally insane?

It didn't make any sense. It wasn't logical, so I dismissed the story.

However, I heard it again a year later. I heard that the therapist had used a Hawaiian healing process called ho 'oponopono. I had never heard of it, yet I couldn't let it leave my mind. If the story was at all true, I had to know more.

I had always understood "total responsibility" to mean that I am responsible for what I think and do. Beyond that, it's out of my hands. I think that most people think of total responsibility that way. We're responsible for what we do, not what anyone else does. The Hawaiian therapist who healed those mentally ill people would teach me an advanced new perspective about total responsibility.

His name is Dr. Ihaleakala Hew Len. We probably spent an hour talking on our first phone call. I asked him to tell me the complete story of his work as a therapist. He explained that he worked at Hawaii State Hospital for four years. That ward where they kept the criminally insane was dangerous. Psychologists quit on a monthly basis. The staff called in sick a lot or simply quit. People would walk through that ward with their backs against the wall, afraid of being attacked by patients. It was not a pleasant place to live, work, or visit.

Dr. Len told me that he never saw patients. He agreed to have an office and to review their files. While he looked at those files, he would work on himself. As he worked on himself, patients began to heal.

"After a few months, patients that had to be shackled were being allowed to walk freely," he told me. "Others who had to be heavily medicated were getting off their medications. And those who had no chance of ever being released were being freed."

I was in awe.

"Not only that," he went on, "but the staff began to enjoy coming to work. Absenteeism and turnover disappeared. We ended up with more staff than we needed because patients were being released, and all the staff was showing up to work. Today, that ward is closed."

This is where I had to ask the million dollar question: "What were you doing within yourself that caused those people to change?"

"I was simply healing the part of me that created them," he said.

I didn't understand.

Dr. Len explained that total responsibility for your life means that everything in your life - simply because it is in your life--is your responsibility. In a literal sense the entire world is your creation.

Whew. This is tough to swallow. Being responsible for what I say or do is one thing. Being responsible for what everyone in my life says or does is quite another. Yet, the truth is this: if you take complete responsibility for your life, then everything you see, hear, taste, touch, or in any way experience is your responsibility because it is in your life.

This means that terrorist activity, the president, the economy--anything you experience and don't like--is up for you to heal. They don't exist, in a manner of speaking, except as projections from inside you. The problem isn't with them, it's with you, and to change them, you have to change you.

I know this is tough to grasp, let alone accept or actually live. Blame is far easier than total responsibility, but as I spoke with Dr. Len, I began to realize that healing for him and in ho 'oponopono means loving yourself. If you want to improve your life, you have to heal your life. If you want to cure anyone--even a mentally ill criminal--you do it by healing you.

I asked Dr. Len how he went about healing himself. What was he doing, exactly, when he looked at those patients' files?

"I just kept saying, 'I'm sorry' and 'I love you' over and over again," he explained.

That's it?

That's it.

Turns out that loving yourself is the greatest way to improve yourself, and as you improve yourself, your improve your world. Let me give you a quick example of how this works: one day, someone sent me an email that upset me. In the past I would have handled it by working on my emotional hot buttons or by trying to reason with the person who sent the nasty message. This time, I decided to try Dr. Len's method. I kept silently saying, "I'm sorry" and "I love you," I didn't say it to anyone in particular. I was simply evoking the spirit of love to heal within me what was creating the outer circumstance.

Within an hour I got an e-mail from the same person. He apologized for his previous message. Keep in mind that I didn't take any outward action to get that apology. I didn't even write him back. Yet, by saying "I love you," I somehow healed within me what was creating him.

I later attended a ho 'oponopono workshop run by Dr. Len. He's now 70 years old, considered a grandfatherly shaman, and is somewhat reclusive. He praised my book, The Attractor Factor. He told me that as I improve myself, my book's vibration will raise, and everyone will feel it when they read it. In short, as I improve, my readers will improve.

"What about the books that are already sold and out there?" I asked.

"They aren't out there," he explained, once again blowing my mind with his mystic wisdom. "They are still in you."

In short, there is no out there.

It would take a whole book to explain this advanced technique with the depth it deserves. Suffice it to say that whenever you want to improve anything in your life, there's only one place to look: inside you.

"When you look, do it with love." "
