Do not expect your goals on human time, rather, accept your goals on cosmic timelessness.

There is a cosmic connection between all things that exist in all forms; like and unlike, large and small, tall and short

The founding legends of the ancients are based upon the idea that a godly connection exists between all things – big and small – concomitantly. We now have a better idea of what this connection represents in the modern world.

We live in a holographic universe

Hence, it is now understood that we inhabit a holographic universe where everything exists everywhere at the same instant. This is the case since the beginning of creation parallels the end of creation. At the moment of creation, in a single instant, all knowledge, experiences, circumstances, and conditions required to help us achieve our earthly goals were manifested. It is the Alpha and it is the Omega. It is the Beginning and it is the End.

At creation, everything that was, is and will be manifested

In view of the fact that creation within a holographic universe manifested everything that was, is, or will be, time has no distinctive period or instance, there is simply no separation between the past, present, or future. We must attempt to understand that cosmic timelessness – where the past, present, and future occur simultaneously – cannot be described, measured, or gauged by our contemporary understanding of time as we know it.

Time exists only in the human mind

Time does not exist except in the minds of humankind. This is an artificial concept whose main function is to set parameters for what we did, what we do, or what we will do. Thus, when we set our goals on human time and fail to achieve them by our time, it does not mean that we will not achieve our goal, this simply means that we have placed an incorrect time frame upon when we expect our goals to be realized.

We receive what we want and need by universal timelessness, not by human time

When we fail to receive what we hope to achieve, many give-up on their dreams and lose faith in the Source of the Natural Laws. It is of little wonder they do not get what they want since this kind of thinking and planning is incongruent with cosmic timelessness.

While we are creators, we cannot control universal timelessness…we can only accept it

We cannot control cosmic timelessness. Although the Creator gave us the freewill to set our goals, still, it is not our freewill that manifests our dreams and goals. Once we submit our goals to the Source, we have lost the freewill to decide how and when we will receive what we need or want.

Surrender your needs and wants to the Source

That part of goal achieving is completely out of our hands as the universe sets into motion all the people, conditions, situations, and circumstances which are required to achieve our goals. And it is only when complete harmony exists between all the necessary entities that we receive what we set our sights upon. No amount of wishing, visualizing, or praying can give us the power to control cosmic timelessness.    

Our thoughts of time are inconsistent with the reality of time

Our belief of time is inconsistent with the reality of time. Time only exists in the minds of humankind to organize our lives in an orderly and systematic manner. And this is as far as it should go when setting goals. We should realize that disappointment looms on the horizon when we strive to be in command of cosmic timelessness. Rather, enjoy the natural flow of life with complete faith that the universe will respond to your goals in all instances when harmony exists between the requisite components.

In order to receive something from others, we need to give something +1 back to others

Give BEFORE you receive

Many think that they will start to give after they receive. This thought manifests from fear…fear that what they have in the present is given away and leaves them with less than what they will have in the future. Little do they realize that this reverse thinking can only lead them back to a life of want and poverty.

Your thoughts, words, and actions determine what vibrational state that you occupy

When we fear that we will lose our material wealth, we enter into a state of vibration that can only attract to us what we don’t want in life. By contrast, we can create abundance with our gifts and not create lack. Therefore, when we give freely to others, this action puts us in a creative and cooperative mode and not a competitive mode. Being in this positive state brings success to our doorways. Empires have been built upon this premise; think about the success and the philanthropy of the great motivational speaker and writer, Anthony Robbins.

Successful internet marketers know it is best to give before they receive

Here’s yet another example of how we can reach success by giving to others first before we receive what we want. The successful Internet marketers have taken this simple idea and have it down to a science. They understand the concept that they must give in order to receive. So, when you purchase their latest e-book for $39.99, they give you six free gifts worth hundreds of dollars more than your original investment. And the chances are that you will buy again from the same marketer in the future since you have received much more than what you paid for.

Give of your Self and not just give money to help others

Nevertheless, this is not just about giving money, it’s about giving of your Self. It’s about giving your time, your expertise, or of your knowledge to help others. For example, you can volunteer at a homeless shelter, conduct a fund raising event, or tutor young entrepreneurs in your hometown. In the end, it’s not about what you give, rather, it’s about how you give.

However, you must give without a scale to measure what you will receive back for your philanthropy

When you give freely of yourself or your material goods, without guilt or obligation, you receive deep joy and gratitude for what you have done. As a result, these feelings place you in a state of positive vibration which then attracts even greater benefits back to you.

Don’t think to get this I must give that…this kind of thinking will backfire on you

This is not to say that you should just give and give and not expect anything in return. I mean that you should receive, however, it certainly is not by thinking that you should get that when you give this. This kind of thinking will surely back-fire and your goals will be pushed further away and manifest as grief in the future.

Give freely to manifest positive feelings which in turn, manifest the results you are striving to attain

You get what you want in your life when you help others get what they want in their life. No one holds a scale to weigh what you get is equal to what you give. It is beyond the materials that are given. It is the positive feelings that you emit to the universe once you have freely given to others, in whatever shape or form that may be, which triggers the gates of abundance to be opened to you. Surely, when you consciously make it a point to give more to someone than what you expect back, you benefit greatly from your own unselfishness acts. this is the Law. 

It’s a WIN -WIN situation for them and you

Think about this when giving: I give something +1 to others for them to be successful which helps me to become successful. At the heart of this thinking…it’s a WIN-WIN situation.

You must not dream FOR your future, however, you must dream FROM your future.

YOUR imagination is the pathway to YOUR success

It has been written that we must have the imagination of a child to truly be successful and achieve what we want out of life. With such abilities, we do not look upon the present as our absolute reality, rather, just a moment in our journey to our end goal.

Accept the reality that YOUR goal/success must be in YOUR mind long before it’s in YOUR hand

As well, we must think of ourselves in possession of what we truly desire at the present moment even though our goal has not yet materialized on the physical plane. And if we attach a date to our goals, we think the goal becomes more tangible. However, when we are dreaming FOR our future instead of dreaming FROM our future, I believe this kind of thinking is pushing our dreams further away from us rather than towards us.

There is a huge difference between thinking/saying FOR your future and thinking/saying FROM your future

Now, some may say that this subtle difference between FOR and FROM is a meaningless if not an entirely moot point. I disagree since the difference between winning and losing is seldom that great, especially in real situations such as sporting events. For example, the winner of the Women’s 400 meter race in the Summer 2008 Olympics won by only .02 seconds – 2/100’s of a second secured first place and victory over the second place runner. That is a blink of an eye or less!

Words do make a difference in your outcome/success

The same can be said about words, although there are subtle linguistic differences that exist between our choice of words in a given situation, it is much more since it is about your conscious and subconscious thoughts and therefore your conscious and subconscious actions that manifest from the words which you focus your attention upon. 

Somewhere in the future can be summed up by thinking/speaking FOR your future

As such, when you are thinking about your goal…let’s say a new home and even before you have achieved it, if you are thinking FOR the future you are comparing the size of your old home with your new home. You are thinking about what that new couch will look like in the corner of the living room and how the new refrigerator will fit in your new kitchen. This is a superficial means to view your goal and does little to bring you closer to your goal.

Thinking/speaking FROM your future plus your emotions and imagination equals your success

By contrast, when you live FROM the future you do so with a different lens. Thus, when you imagine your new home, you are in your home at this very moment, you are cooking dinner with your family around the dining room table talking about the day. Your emotions fuel your thoughts and you feel the excitement in the air as your family exchanges the events of the day. From this prospective, your imagination accompanied by your emotions place you in your new environment and to bring about all the needed thoughts and actions to manifest your home.  

Live FROM your future…the simple yet effective means to achieve your success/goals

Live your life and goals FROM the future and have complete faith that the universe will answer your dreams. It is by the thoughtful use of your imagination and your imagination alone that manifests what your desire.

You mustn’t run away from your present, however, you must run towards your future.

The unpleasant present

Have you ever found yourself in a miserable situation with no apparent way out? Perhaps, at this very moment you are in a low paying job, a bad relationship, or a mountain of debt. While it seems like the entire universe has plotted against you and has placed roadblock after roadblock in front of you and your path to success, you must not run away from your present situation. Instead, you must run towards your future when things are the lowest in your life. 

Negative situations often result in negative responses…WRONG

Most people face negative situations in life with negative responses. They blame others for their unhappy and unsuccessful life. They blame their spouse, their boss, their age, their height, their weight, and their parents for their lack of success in their life. And while they blame others for their unsuccessful life, in the same breath, they also look to others and other things to solve their problems.

What’s your plan if you run away? Just running doesn’t solve the problem

As a result, they need to be with a person to feel whole, they need a shiny sports car to feel worthy, and they need a new house on the right side of town to feel successful. And when they construct barriers around their dreams, they want to run away from it all with no plan or vision of how to achieve the future they want.

Your life is a mirror

Little do these blamers understand that their present is a reflection of what they have been thinking about and what they must receive from the benevolent Source. These same people do not realize that their attitude can change an unpleasant present into a fabulous future. 

Don’t be a blamer…claim responsibility for your unpleasant present

Now, consider your own situation. If it’s not what you want it to be, do not blame everyone else for your results and do not look at everyone else for your solutions. Take full responsibility of the present knowing that your attitude can change your results.

Be sincerely grateful where you are at this moment

First, you must take the initiative and be grateful for whatever situation you find yourself in. And next, while being in a positive state of gratitude, you must also create an inner world of peace and calmness. This positive state occurs when you have a concise vision of what you long to achieve.

Clarity of purpose cerates empowerment

Finally, with a clear vision of what you want, you feel empowered and enthused about the future, hence, you can run towards your future knowing that your goals are attainable. 

Change? Change your attitude along with your thoughts, words and actions

In the end, it’s all about your attitude and your reaction to the situation you find yourself in. If you run away from the present, you are reacting out of hate, fear, and doubt. These are negative feelings which only serve to block your path to success.

Run to your future with a heart, mind, and soul full of love, faith and belief

In contrast, if you run towards your future, you are reacting out of love, faith, and belief. These are positive feelings which can only build a bridge to your success. When you find yourself in a situation, carefully think about your reaction to get where you want to go.

Listen to your inner Self to receive what you want to achieve.

In modern times, science usurps the metaphysical world…and this is where many of our problems originate

Our modern world views science with the highest regard while often being critical of the influence the metaphysical world has upon our lives. Needless to say, with this kind of mindset, we rationalize that if we can’t see, hear, smell, touch, or taste it; it must not exist.

What we cannot see still exists

However, we cannot see electricity or gravity and we still reap the benefits of these two unseen forces. This is the same with intuition; while it has no physical properties, it can provide benefits for what we desire to attain in life.    

Let intuition guide your words and actions

We all have intuition, you know; an unexplained hunch or a spontaneous reaction from some unknown part of our very Self which can either protect us or help us. For example, you want to drive to your friend’s home and suddenly decide to take an alternative route instead of the one you always do and after arriving safe and sound, you hear about a 36 car pile-up on the freeway at the exact spot where you should have been. It could also be a word from a friend or something you read which results in one of those inspiring moments that just cannot be explained by reason alone. Rely upon your intuition to provide a pathway to your future.     

Your inner voice is always 100% correct…it derives from the Source

That inner voice that you hear is the divine connection with the Source. You receive guidance from being in harmony with the universe which results in a powerful flow of positive energy to accomplish what you desire. Although each of us has been freely given the wonderful gift of intuition, few follow this divine path to achieve whatever they want in life.

Dramatic changes occur when you listen to your inner voice

Many simply don’t listen to or have faith in their inner voice which can make dramatic changes in their situation. Still, we would have never been given the free will to determine our goals from the Source without also being given the direction to receive our goals.

How can I prepare myself to receive guidance from within?

The next time you set your mind on a big goal, prepare yourself to receive the path to achieve your desire by your intuition. The first step is to have an exact picture of what you want. Be as specific as possible, so, if it’s a new car, get a colorful brochure; if it’s a new house, draw up the house plans; if it’s a new job, do research about the company you want to work for.

Your plan for success will manifest in universal time, not human time

Remember, at this point, you do not have a plan or the means to get what you want…and if you already have the money or the way to receive what you want the goal simply isn’t big enough.  Next, sit back and relax and have daily visualization sessions that focus on what you want to achieve. Smell the new leather interior, see the children playing in the yard, and enjoy that large paycheck. Now, listen for the plan to get what you want.

Listen…your inner vice is answering your desires, concerns, and wants

If you listen carefully to your inner voice, your intuitive voice, the voice from the Source, and then follow up with consistent action, you must be successful and receive what you want to achieve.

The moment I stop worrying about money is the moment I start accumulating money.

Worry will not and cannot put money in your pocket …it can only stop the flow of money to you

Many worry from paycheck to paycheck, not knowing if they have enough income to cover their expenses. As they worry about the bottom line each and every month, they are blocking the flow of money and doing harm to their bodies. If you are one of these worriers, replace your negative thoughts of worry and fear with positive thoughts of faith and belief to begin the accumulation of money.

Credit is easy to obtain…but it can be difficult to pay it back each month

In this day and age, it is easy to receive credit and this all too common fact of life can lead us into difficulties at times. While we are earning enough income to cover our monthly expenses, we seldom even give it a second thought about what we owe. However, if we lose our job or receive a cut in pay, we suddenly realize the price we have to pay for living yesterday. And that price can be high, after all, money issues are the number one reason for broken marriages.

A lack of money causes stress in everyday living

A lack of money creates enormous stress on a relationship. Children need new clothes, teens need college tuition, and spouses need financial security. If the money cannot be found to cover our many obligations, we panic and start to focus on our lack and this can only sustain our present situation of lack. However, if you are in a crisis over money, all the worry in the world will not move you out of your present situation of lack into a situation of plenty.

Work with the Law of Abundance to achieve financial or personal success

Rather than focus on lack, we need to set our minds on plenty. And there is abundance everywhere, we only need to look around and see that abundance in order to receive that abundance. If you can see abundance, you are right and if you cannot see abundance, you are right. It is your perception at the moment, regardless, the Natural Laws, such as The Law of Abundance, are omnipresent and permeate the universe for your good. You only need you to focus your thoughts on plenty and you will receive all the people, conditions, and circumstances required to have abundance in your life.

The Law is unbiased regardless of age, gender, location, or level of education

The Law will deliver to anyone regardless of age, gender, education, or geographic location. You see, there is an unlimited abundance of money or happiness or love and these can never be taken away from you to be given to another. And money, happiness, or love of another can never be taken from them to be given to you.

Think, feel, and see abundance before it actually happens in your life

It is critical for each of us to receive abundance we first must use our minds to think, feel, and see abundance. Even if we are only fooling our mind into believing that abundance exists when in reality it does not, these thoughts will manifest in the abundance you want and deserve to have if given time and you display patience.

Positive expectancy is the driving force that changes problems to solutions, difficulties to possibilities, and adversities to opportunities.

Roadblocks are only temporary detours meant to measure your resolve.

When we set out to accomplish big goals and big dreams, we often run into roadblocks that appear to stop us from achieving what we truly desire in life. However, these are mere detours set before us to test our resolve. Although we encounter problems, difficulties, and adversities along the path to success, The Law of Expectancy can turn these into solutions, possibilities, and opportunities.

We can only receive what we expect to receive.

The Law of Expectancy will bring about big changes in your life as a result of your mental attitude. Because you achieve what you expect to achieve, according to the Law, your attitude sets off a chain reaction to bring about your success. So, we have thoughts of success that cause us to react in a positive manner which draws all the people and circumstances that are necessary to achieve what we want.  

Would you still try after facing 10,000 failures?

Thomas Edison certainly had the Law on his side when it took him over 10,000 attempts to discover the incandescent light bulb. And The Law was working for Sly Stallone when scores of Hollywood studios turned down his script about a prizefighter from Philadelphia.

Defeat is an attitude; success is an attitude.

In spite of repeated failure and rejection, these men had an attitude of victory and not of defeat which helped them get around, through, and over the obstacles that were stopping them from achieving their ultimate goal.  

If you think you can, you can. If you think you can’t, you can’t.

It must be said that the opposite is true as well, if we think we can’t then we certainly can’t reach our goals. This is evident with many people: on the surface, it looks like they should attain whatever they strive for. They plan their goal, are sure to be positive in life, and do all the right stuff,

Positive Expectancy is the key to goal achievement.

However, unless they have positive expectancy, chances are they will not reach their goal no matter how long or how hard they try. This is self-sabotage. And as they continue to sabotage their efforts on an unconscious level, they are not even aware of what or why they don’t achieve the success they want out of life. 

You must have Positive Expectancy, not just a positive attitude.

The Law will provide for you if you do the following: have a clearly defined goal, visualize your results before they occur, never lose sight of your goal, take consistent action towards your goal, and remain in a positive state of mind. 

What’s the driving force in your life?

Even though you maintain positive thoughts towards your goal and your success, it is not enough just to be positive. More importantly, you need positive expectancy to accompany optimism. You have to feel a sense of expectancy as well as think positively to succeed. Expectancy of success, coupled with positive thoughts, will manifest what you want to achieve in your life.

In the end, it is our spiritual self which is worth more than our material wealth and our physical health.

Consumerism isn’t spiritualism

Many people pursue consumerism under the guise of spiritualism in order to attain material wealth. However, this kind of thinking can only produce temporary success. This is evident when a person achieves their goals and then these are taken away from them just as suddenly as they are attained. We witness these folks hitting a streak of bad luck or twist of fate and they lose all that they have worked to achieve.    

Material wealth is fleeting at this moment

We only need to look around us at this time to understand that material wealth is fleeting: as the Stock Market crashed many lost their retirement savings; companies were put into bankruptcy and many lost their sole means of income; and others were forced to hand over their front-door keys and walk away from their homes. The sad part about this is that many will never regain what they lost from a lifetime of working because they are not aware of how to regain what was lost.  

What is the symptom and what is the illness?

Still, these terrible results are the symptom and not the illness which permeates our modern-day world of consumerism. Our society exerts a great deal of pressure upon us to flaunt our wealth, actual or not, in order to make the grade.

We validate our Self with costly goods

We need costly watches, purses, and cars to validate our self-worth in today’s society. Shiny, sparkly objects are transitory and this week’s fashion becomes next week’s old news. If that’s all you are or known by is your costly toys, how can you attain true happiness and fulfillment in this life?

Gratitude, faith, belief, and optimism release ‘good’ chemicals in our body

When it comes to health, the new field of epigenetics is telling us that it’s an inside job to maintain and sustain good health. There is little doubt from the scientific findings that one’s spirituality and the positive emotions which accompany their connection to The Source, such as gratitude, faith, belief, as well as optimism release a pharmacopeia of good chemicals into their bodies. These naturally occurring substances then act as a defense against disease, and ultimately, result in a healthier and longer life.

What’s your most important possession in this life?

Overall, it is your spirituality that is the most important possession in your life. I say this because your spiritual Self manifests your material wealth and your physical health. It can never be the other way around where wealth or health manifests the spiritual self.

“Toys” don’t last…a spiritual connection does last

So, while your toys may be gone and your health fails, your spiritual connection cannot be lost to anyone or anything unless you consciously relinquish your connection with the Source. And even when things go awry, you still have your spirituality to regain what has been taken away. 

Spirituality is the pathway to a ‘good’ life and not material goods

Hence, since material goods are short-lived and physical health depends upon your thoughts, we need to embrace spirituality as a means to live a wealthy, healthy, and fulfilling life

Your immediate and long-term success depends upon your desire, emotion, and action.

How do you define success?

Success in life can mean a number of things to different people. Some chase fame, many want material goods, while others pursue the peace and harmony that results from spiritual attainment. Nevertheless, no matter how diverse success is defined, there are three essential ingredients necessary for a life of personal achievement. Desire, emotion, and action are powerful forces that can lead a person to achieve the ultimate success in their life. 

Desire, a deep burning desire for your goal can help you achieve the seemingly unachievable.

In Napoleon Hill’s writing’s, he clearly believed that desire was critical for achieving success. However, it must be a burning desire, a desire for fulfillment that takes over your entire life and you simply must reach the goal desired in your mind in spite of any and all obstacles.

Belief in achieving your goal is not enough to achieve your goal.

Although people may believe they have an intense desire for their goal, they never realize what they’re after. They let excuses get in their way. They don’t have the money needed to start a new business or they don’t possess the knowledge or the time just isn’t right. They allow their present circumstances to rob them of their desire. 

Excuses can dose your burning desire to reach your goal.

When you feel that your burning desire is waning, it is crucial to rekindle the flame and remain focused upon the end goal, and not allow excuses to take away your need for success.

The intensity of your emotions helps you achieve what you desire most in this life.

The second part of the equation is having emotions for the goal you want to achieve. The intensity of your emotions helps you get around, over, or under the obstacles that can be put between you and your goal. Positive emotions of faith, abundance, enthusiasm, expectancy, passion, and gratitude change your psychological and physiological Self.

Your outer world mirrors your inner world.

Just think when you’re sad: your outside mirrors your inside since there’s no hiding your true Self. Now, think when you’re happy: you feel good on the inside and your outer Self reflects that good feeling as you walk tall and confident. You are harmonious with the universe and your goal.

Harmony between your goals and your thoughts manifests your goals.

In turn, being in harmony with the Natural Laws opens up the floodgates of the universe to bring together the people, the circumstances, and the right moment for your personal success. So, look in that mirror and get those emotions out, they’re crucial for personal success.

Action is often missed; you cannot achieve your goals through inaction.

Even though one’s desires and emotions are in harmony, a goal can never be accomplished unless you take action. Actions produce results that bring success. It’s clear that the little things done consistently bring about huge results over time.

Plan what action you will take daily to reach your goal.

In order to achieve your goals, plan daily and be sure to do the most important thing needed on a daily basis to succeed. It’s wise to start your day off on a positive note and write down what you need to do that day to get closer to your dreams.    

Manifest your goals through desire, emotion, and action…it’s the Law.

No matter how you look at life, a healthy dose of desire, emotion, and action will result in the manifestations of your goals.

The money you have in your pocket is the manifestation of the thoughts you have in your mind.

Is modern-day economic survival really that difficult?

It’s not very difficult to think about a life of poverty, a lack of opportunity, or an absence of hope in our modern-day world. The media portrays doom and gloom at every opportunity they possibly can. There’s the meltdown on Wall Street, the bankruptcies of major corporations, and the recession which threatens the world. Still, there are many people who will continue to thrive in spite of these economic times and you must be one of them, nevertheless, it all starts with your mindset. 

There is abundance everywhere, still, you need to open your eyes, heart, and soul to this universal truth

One of the Natural Laws found within our cosmos is The Law of Abundance. Clearly, as we look around us there is abundance, there is an unlimited abundance, even the universe itself is ever-expanding as time unfolds. There is lots for everyone and you cannot lose something so another person gains something.

You will not gain as others lose; the Law of Abundance doesn’t operate that way

And the opposite is true as well since you will not gain as another loses. The abundance of the universe is ours to have and enjoy and even though one supply should cease to exist another supply is created. This is the nature of the Law of Abundance.

Negative thoughts, words, and actions are contagious

When you have your Monday morning coffee at the office, notice how the general conversation moves to the current situation in the world. Most workers are in a state of fear, panic, and anxiety since they might be the next person who faces the axe from the boss. This kind of thinking is contagious and infectious to all those that subscribe to it and nothing good can ever come of it.

Your thoughts, words, and actions manifest your dream or your nightmare

These negatives sap your energy, take away your creativity, and can cause mental and physical ailments. How can a mindset of poverty, lack, and fear ever lead a person out of their current situation? And, this mindset even drives to them what consumes their mind.

Feel, see, and touch a world of abundance inside your mind, body, and soul

In order to thrive financially, set aside the current economic turmoil within the outer world and replace it with an inner world of abundance. It might be difficult to see plenty since we are constantly being inundated by any number of negatives from the media. Still, in a universe where order is the rule and not the exception and where our inner thoughts must manifest in the outer world, we do have complete control over our future.

You have complete control over your thoughts, words, and actions…watch what they are very carefully

Therefore, based upon the Natural Laws, if you think abundance, you will see the abundance around you and you will attract abundance which then must manifest abundance for you. This is the Law. In spite of these tough times, when you maintain a mindset of abundance and plenty, you can only attract and retain plenitude in your life. Continually keep your thoughts focused upon abundance and your pockets will be overflowing, even in such troubled times.
