Very often, I am asked, “So is you work similar to what is described in the book, The Secret?” My answer, invariably, is “Sort of, but not really.”
The premise of The Secret is that your thoughts control the universe. In other words, if you set a positive intention or thought, the universe will comply and supply. Based on this "law of attraction", you are able "manifest" what you want. "See yourself living in abundance and you will attract it.”
Truth is that I personally have asked the universe for many things, believing I was asking for what I ‘wanted’ and the universe did not even come close to supplying my demand. I ordered from the catalogue and the delivery never came.
Of course, at the time, I didn’t realize that in order to get what I wanted, I had to know what it is I wanted in the first place, not what I ‘needed.”
Why?
Want comes from a place of knowing that you am and have enough, and you simply want something that you can live without. You are unattached to the outcome and therefore you are in a place of balance. Need comes from a place of fear, of believing that you are not enough or do not have enough. In balance, you evoke the Love Response, in fear, the Fear Response. Each of these responses creates biochemical and physiological changes in the body that have different vibrations. These are the vibrations that are emitted into the universe. If like attracts like, what do you think you will attract with each vibration?
If you are lacking in something—like money—you are in need. It is a reality. Perhaps you have not had work in a while or you have been unsuccessful in regularly paying your bills on time. Based on your negative experiences of not having enough money repeatedly, you develop the belief that you cannot successfully acquire money or the generalized assumption that you will never meet necessary payments. Your brain will create a prediction about your future—I do not have enough and the likelihood is that in the future, I will not have enough.
Despite the fact that you might ‘want” something positive or extend out to the universe a position intention, if your unconscious assumption or prediction is negative, your Fear Response is still activated. The vibration that is being extended to the universe is one of Fear.
The key to The Secret is the notion that you assume you will have what you want. This means that within your mind—conscious, subconscious and unconscious—there is no doubt that you will get or have whatever you are asking for and that if you do not get what you are asking for, you will get it in time; Like your breath, you know in no uncertain terms that another breath will come the minute you let go of one. There is not moment of need because you always manage to have.
So how are you supposed to develop this kind of assumption when all you know is negative experiences of not having?
This is where the Active Belief SystemTM and the Love Response® come in. When you subtly change the unconscious beliefs to one of having enough and being enough, the Love Response is activated. In the Love Response, you are not in a place of need. You can peruse your world and see more clearly what it is you want because you are no longer desperate. You have more clarity as to what the universe may be presenting to you and you might find that acquiring what you want is easier.
