Your Power To Choose
in EVERY aspect of your life. With that being "True", wouldn't it seem logical to learn how and why, and then once understood, do what few do and go the extra mile so might begin choosing more of what you love, consciously, intentionally and on purpose? We've each been provided with a number of incredible and irrevocable gifts that are oftentimes overlooked and/or taken for granted. One of the most incredible gifts provided to you, me and everyone else on this planet, is our Power to Choose. What we choose, we receive...unconditionally. As true as that is, it's a gift that many "unknowingly and unintentionally choose to utilize unconsciously. At best, we utilize this power based on a very shallow and superficial understanding of the power we've each been provided. We remain "unaware" of how and why our every thought molds, shapes and impacts, at varying degrees, every event, every condition and every circumstance we experience in life. This is why so many "perceive" themselves as being "powerless" to create desirable change. It's why so many view themselves and others as victims or creatures of circumstance, rather than what we ALL truly are, which is "creators of circumstance." Our Power To Choose individually is quite obvious to most, although it is often limited to and by a surface level view of life. We utilize what could be referred to as a "surface level form of power", every minute of every day as we make choices about what to think, what to say, where we work, what we eat, the clothes we wear, when we go to bed, etc. These common, on the surface examples of how we exercise our power to choose individually are the obvious conscious choices that we each make on a day to day basis. But a fact that many overlook is the fact that the vast majority are using their power to choose "unconsciously." below our conscious awareness. Each and every minute of every day, whether on a conscious or subconscious level, both individually and collectively, we are choosing the inevitable outcomes that reveal themselves as tangible and measurable results. Although we're well aware of our "conscious choices", it's more times than not the "unconscious choices" that lead to producing our "less than desired" results, regardless of how badly we may "claim to want" something better. Unbeknownst to many "wanting is a choice", albeit an "unconscious" one that can and often does keep us seemingly trapped in the very state we're "wanting" nothing to do with. The fact is, Wanting "better results" is tangible evidence of a lack of understanding regarding our power to choose as well as the power those choices have in molding and shaping our lives. But we CAN learn to utilize our "power to choose" in such a way that makes "wanting" obsolete. We want only because because we have little to no understanding that we're using our power to choose in such a way that creates and sustains a seemingly inescapable cycle of want. We want because we've learned and have a tendency to "make excuses", to point fingers and blame something or someone in the "world out there" for our less than desired results. In essence, we unconsciously utilize our power to choose to relinquish our power rather than embrace it. If we honestly believe that what happens in our lives is the result of something or someone "out there" what power do we have to change it?
With each of the choices that you make individually, comes the need for accepting responsibility for what you experience in your life, regardless of what those experiences entail.
If you are unhappy in your work for example, you have the free will, or choice to change your profession. The choices you make concerning the kind of foods that you eat will determine your health to a great extent. What time you choose to go to bed at night determines how you'll feel the next day. You have been given the power to choose and decide these things for yourself, and each and every one of these obvious "conscious surface level choices" are a direct reflection of the outcomes that you experience in life on a day to day basis. We all agree on that, don't we? Yet your power to choose and the results that you experience as a result, begin and extend well beyond the tangible and measurable. Each of the obvious conscious "surface level" choices we make find their root in and the quality of them is determined by a "not so obvious" part of us that few are aware of...namely our "subconscious thought processes."
What if you discovered that, contrary to what so many are taught and have been led to believe regarding themselves, their potential, and what's "truly available to each of us, that you have the power to choose how you construct EVERY aspect of your life and these moment by moment choices extend well beyond these obvious day to day "conscious choices?"
What if you were introduced to the idea that you could use your power to choose in a more conscious, intentional, purposeful and meaningful way, enabling and empowering you to determine exactly how much money you made, the quality of relationships that you attract, and your quality of health? What if you found that you have the power to choose without limitation of any form, whether it be your career, what kind of car you drive, the kind of home you live in, and how much time you could spend with those you love? Would you believe it? If you've adopted and adhere to the self limiting mindset of the vast majority, the answer would be no. That's precisely why those who enjoy and experience the kind and quality of life that nearly EVERYONE "claims to want" are in, what could be referred to as the minority class. But make no mistake...
No question, learning HOW to choose consciously is the road less traveled. Yet at the same time it's a road that's open and available for all to travel if ever and whenever they make the choice to do so.
Those who choose this "less traveled path" simply choose to utilize the irrevocable gift we've each been provided and make a decision to become keenly and consciously aware of what they're choosing, why we choose what we choose which enables us to choose in a more conscious and intentional kind of way. The fact is, the choices you are and have been making to this point, both conscious and unconscious are precisely what is creating, has created and will continue creating the kind and quality of life that you are, have been and will continue experiencing unless and until new choices are made. We can "consciously" want something, yet be "unconsciously sabotaging" what it is that we do want. Your life and the events, conditions and circumstances in your life are nothing more than a mirrored reflection of the mindset that you choose to hold and the predominant thought processes that you choose to determine the kind and quality of your tangible results. As "true as that is", the choices which are, have and will continue producing your future results go much deeper than the obvious day to day choices relating to the physical activities that you engage in, which most "perceive" as being the ultimate cause of these outcomes. But your power to choose entails much more than that...MUCH more. The obvious choices that we each make from day to day are in most cases based on and limited to a form of physical and finite power...a very limited form of power that can only produce very limited results in comparison to what we're "truly" capable of achieving. Choosing to explore and discover just how "true" that is will enable you to discover where your "true power" lies. To fully grasp and understand how to begin consciously, intentionally and consistently creating "desired outcomes", and consciously utilizing your "true power" consistently, is as simple as choosing to take a deeper look at the underlying and often overlooked cause of every event, condition and circumstance that shows up in your life. That extends well beyond the physical and finite. Everything physical and finite begins as something not physical at all. This non physical thing is called "consciousness." This deeper look without fail leads to becoming keenly aware of the quality of your consciousness at the deepest levels. You could refer to it as "the seed level" which always provides a mirrored reflection of the kind and quality of physical and finite outcomes that we experience. Should you find yourself experiencing "less than desired" outcomes, all that's required to enhance yours, whether physically, financially, relationally, emotionally or spiritually, is as simple as making a conscious choice to enhance your level of awareness regarding yourself and your "true power" and once chosen begin "consciously choosing" to "apply" what you discover as the minority who experience far above average results do. Contrary to the beliefs that many hold...a majority mindset that many have adopted and choose to adhere to, life is not a random and chaotic unfolding of events, conditions and circumstances. For every effect, there exists a cause, although many utilize their power to choose in such a way that they never look deeply enough to discover the "true cause." That's why randomness, chaos There are no random events, conditions or circumstances in life. There are no such things as "lucky people" and forgive me for saying so if you believe as many do...there exists no such thing as "unanswered prayer." Perceived randomness, chaos and unanswered prayer stem from a quality of "consciousness" that is disharmonious and misaligned with the desired result. What is perceived as "luck" is an alignment of "consciousness" that harmonizes with the desired result.
You have been provided with the power to choose how you live and what you experience in your life. You have the ability to choose consciously as well as the ability to choose unconsciously. Whichever you choose will consistently provide and deliver, in tangible and measurable form, a quality of life that harmonizes with your individual choices...unconditionally, regardless of what you may have been previously taught and led to believe to this point.
The choices that you are currently and consistently making everyday, which are the result of your previous programming and conditioning, are the same choices that are determining your current results, and are the same choices that you have the power to change, whenever you choose to do so to create an entirely new life for yourself! It's not a choice that you HAVE to make and it's a not a choices that the majority DOES make. But is a choice you CAN make.
All that is required is that you develop the understanding and ability to utilize your power to choose consciously and intentionally with the starting point being to elevate your awareness which in turn enhances, aligns and harmonizes, the quality of your consciousness with the "desired result."
Just as you have been given the inalienable right, free will, and power to choose what you eat, what clothes you wear etc., you have been given the power to choose, and if necessary, elevate your beliefs about yourself, your life and the creative power provided to you. Although not a common choice, it is a choice that without fail will result in enabling and empowering you to begin attracting to yourself the ideas, events, conditions, circumstances, people, etc. to fulfill your most heartfelt desires which are, have been and always will be limited only by your chosen beliefs that without fail and with unwavering certainty, determine the kind and quality of your life. Let's take a brief look at the not so obvious choices that you make, simply because of previous things that you have been taught, and have been totally unaware that they even are your choices to make. Let's take a look at unlimited Abundance and Happiness for example. You have the power to choose to create and live any kind of lifestyle that you would like, and have the ability to be as happy or unhappy as you choose to be. You have the power to choose to live a life that most only dream about, as well as the ability to choose to experience struggle, disharmony and discord from day to day? The only difference between someone who is experiencing Abundance and Happiness in every area of their life and someone who is not, has nothing to do with what's going on outside of you, but rather with what's going on within you. Yet it's outside where so many look for the changes they seek. They "unconsciously utilize" their power to choose and engage in physical activity attempting to do...do...do...themselves into lives of abundance. Yet they overlook the most crucial aspect of creating that abundance which begins on the inside. Utilizing your power to choose "consciously and intentionally" begins by deciding to begin taking an inside out approach to life. This inside out approach is what I refer to as the short path to harmony. I refer to it as that, because I've personally traveled both. The short path consists of nothing more than choosing to become conscious of the underlying self limiting and self sabotaging beliefs that we've all been exposed to and adopted at some point in our lives, which determines how we "feel" about what's going on around us. These beliefs are acquired through a number of channels, not the least of which are our parents who simply teach us in the best way they know how, what they were taught to be logical, practical, realistic, right and true. Many of these "one time students of life" who eventually become loving, caring and well intentioned parents, wanting what's best for their children, are innocently and unknowingly passing on and teaching their children the same self sabotaging, self limiting beliefs based on what they have been previously taught and believe to be true, without ever realizing that there is a Higher Truth! The Higher Truth is, we get to be right. Let's take a closer look at both how and why the self limiting programming passed to us through a number of channels throughout life can and does impact our individual results......Regardless if you explore the latest in scientific discoveries...namely Quantum Physics or the timeless spiritual wisdom passed down from the most enlightened sages, mystics and masters since antiquity, a common theme holds true. We exist in a belief-driven universe. Our perceptions determine our reality. The beliefs we have, most of which are unconscious, determine how we "feel" about any given circumstance which without fail we eventually see a mirrored reflection of that choice or choices in the various aspects of our lives. Depending on the quality of beliefs acquired and held, we interpret everything around us through the lens of our own individually acquired belief filters which determines our perceptions regarding life, ourselves and what's available or not available to us individually. This is where your power to choose "consciously becomes so crucial. Choosing to become "conscious of" the beliefs that are creating how you "feel" determines the quality of what you think, say and do, which collectively determine the quality of your tangible and measurable results.
The vast majority of people in the world today never discover the power of emotion and the vital role our emotions play in determining the kind and quality of our physical results. Once we choose to become keenly aware of our unique filters and beliefs and make a choice to discern which are moving us forward and which are holding us back, we can make a conscious choice to enhance and elevate those that previously held us back and create the desired forms of change. In essence we can utilize our power to choose consciously which in turn elevates our quality of consciousness (our beliefs), changes how we "feel" which in turn enables us to think, speak and act in such a way that aligns and harmonizes with what we desire to see and experience, which enhances the quality of results that we experience. It's not a requirement of life, yet it is a choice we all have the ability to make. Choosing to do so will both enable and empower you to see and experience an abundance of whatever it might be that you are looking for individually and at some point, once you begin to explore and master this gift, realize that whatever it might be was there all along. Anything and Everything you want is available to you, but you won't see it until you shift the perception and eliminate the belief filters that keep you from seeing it.
It's due to this all too common lack of understanding and failing to recognize the importance of making conscious choices that has people all over the world spending countless hours in less than fulfilling jobs that they despise, stressed out, ingesting billions of dollars worth of often times harmful "pharmaceutical quick fixes", "perceiving" themselves as victims or creatures of circumstance, unable to achieve any sort of harmony in life, and consistently struggling to just pay the bills and put food on the table!
If you consistently find yourself experiencing "less than desired" results, Take Heart. You have, not only the ability, but the power to choose to utilize your creative power into whatever you desire...whenever you desire regardless of your education, age, where you come from, who your parents were, or whatever other self limiting perceptions you may currently hold, if you will only begin to "consciously utilize" your power to choose in a way that enables you to "become conscious and awake" and begin making a few different choices.
The first choice necessary, is to become aware of, overwrite and eliminate whatever false and self limiting beliefs that you have been programmed to believe and reprogram yourself with a "Higher Truth" regarding who and what you truly are, the gifts provided to you and what you are "truly" capable of achieving and becoming.
The only way to effectively do that is by using your power to choose in a more conscious and intentional kind of way. It's going to require that you step outside of your self created comfort zone (which in more cases than not is quite uncomfortable) just long enough to become aware that there are other options available to you. Then you can begin utilizing your power to determine if the things that you have been previously taught are actually true, or based on the traditionally held limiting beliefs acquired through your life teachers.
When you do find that much of what you have been taught and have developed solidified beliefs and perceptions about in relation to your power is based strictly on self limiting common thinking and self limiting human logic, you then have the ability, and the power to choose to elevate the quality of belief held.
Many people today are constantly making choices that are in direct conflict with their true inner calling and heartfelt desires. Based on these "be logical" or "be realistic" teachings acquired throughout life, some spend their entire lives feeling unfulfilled, helpless, hopeless, and seemingly stuck in their self chosen cycles of lack, limitation and discord. Not because we HAVE to but rather because we often "see ourselves" as something "less than we truly are. Our perceptions become distorted by unchallenged and often erroneous beliefs embedded in the subconscious aspect of our minds . We unintentionally remain totally oblivious to, and unaware of, the fact that there is so much more available to us by simply choosing to seek it out and find it!
The effect of this choice is always...ALWAYS without exception...the underlying cause of any current limiting conditions, events, and circumstances that may be happening in your life right now, which are in direct conflict with what it is that you claim that you want.
By developing an awareness of and implementing the principles that are shared throughout abundance-and-happiness.com and choosing to invest in yourself with tried and tested tools and resources made available to you, you'll acquire the power to choose to rewrite the previous self sabotaging programming, regardless of what it might be, and use this new found awareness to create whatever circumstances for yourself, that you have a desire to create. Again, it requires nothing more than a choice.
You have the power to choose to investigate further and determine for yourself just how "powerfully creative" you are, as well as the choice to remain as you are and continue to create the same results as you have to this point. Often times, when I convey these simple truths I receive a lot of Yea, buts.......... These yea buts, many as there are, are understandable based on the previous subconscious programming received by so many, but once introduced to the possibility of new hope, at the core are merely conscious choices to make excuses for not exploring the possibility, and "consciously choosing" to change current conditions and circumstances into "desired results" that so many claim that they want and "wish" they could experience. Life doesn't give us what we want...life gives us what we choose for ourselves. Your power to choose is an inalienable gift provided to you and whatever choices you make will without fail determine what you get. That may sound harsh to some, but I can assure you that I share it with the greatest amount of empathy, compassion and caring that I can muster. I do so because I have walked down the "unconscious path" and know first hand the challenges and discontent that choosing that path can and does provide. One thing is certain... If nothing changes, nothing changes.It's as simple and complex as utilizing your power to choose to begin "consciously choosing" your path. Although I agree that what ever information that you were programmed with as a child and throughout your young life, was in fact, not in your control, you now have the power to choose as well as the obligation, should you desire change for yourself, to discover and shift the limiting underlying beliefs which are keeping change from becoming "real and tangible." Should you find that old self limiting beliefs no longer serve you and are in some way limiting your ability to "consciously create" your heartfelt desires and reach your true potential, you have the power to choose to eliminate them and begin to experience the things that you desire in your life. Ultimately, your power to choose a different path or continue down the same as you have rests in your hands. You have the power to choose to explore and discover your inherent greatness and creative abulity. You have the power to choose to take conscious and intentional action starting right here, right now and discover for yourself that what I convey is based on a "Higher Truth", than the "truth that the vast majority have chosen and are choosing" for themselves. You also have the power to choose to do nothing. The really great thing about life is that whatever we choose...we get to be right. Choosing to do nothing is also a choice.
If you will use your power to choose and explore further, you will find and come to know for yourself that it is based on a Higher Truth than you may currently hold.
With the countless resources and educational materials readily available to you today, you can begin making conscious choices to eliminate, elevate and replace the old self limiting belief patterns that are keeping you from reaching your true potential, and replace them with empowering beliefs that will.
You also have the power to choose to allow those self limiting beliefs and perceptions to remain and continue to produce the exact same results in your life that they have to this point.
It's Nothing More or Less Than A Choice That YOU Have The Power To MakeYour power to choose is your inalienable God given right to do, or not do, whatever you feel is the right thing for you.
The choices that you make today are the choices that are going to determine and create what you see manifest in your physical world tomorrow. You'll be challenged to make several choices should you choose to explore abundance-and-happiness.com. You can choose to believe that this is a bunch of hocus pocus, based on your previous conditioning, and never do anything to implement it's power into your life, or you can make a conscious choice to study the scientific proof revealed by Nobel Prize Laureates as well as spiritual principles that support it's truth and make an educated, conscious and informed decision for yourself.
You have the Power to Choose whether or not you will explore, learn and discover the immutable and unwavering Universal Laws (Supreme Laws or Laws of Nature) that govern our entire universe, or you have the power to choose to ignore and remain oblivious to them.
You have the ability and the power to choose to align and harmonize yourself with these immutable and unwavering laws to create a life beyond your wildest imagination, or you have the power to choose to ignore their undeniable and predictable creative abilities, and continue to "unconsciously create" and experience a life of "perceived" chance and uncertainty.
You have been given the power to choose to explore, study, and determine for yourself the Higher Truth concerning the incredible power of the Law of Vibration and discover your true ability to create your life by design, or use that same power to choose to ignore it's verifiable and substantiated existence or continue to attract and experience a life of randomness and uncertainty fully "perceiving" that the events, conditions and circumstances unfolding are doing so by default.
You possess the power to choose to establish a belief or disbelief in the immutable and unwavering creative power of what has been recently labeled the Law of Attraction and begin to understand and "consciously utilize" it's incredible power to attract to yourself the life you most desire, or choose to write it off as some airy fairy nonsense that doesn't pertain to you and continue to "unconsciously attract" whatever life delivers. You have the power to choose to become aware of the
Law of Abundance as well as it's capability to provide you with far more than you could ever conceive or hope for in your life. You can, if you choose as the vast majority do, continue to believe that you are just a victim of circumstance rather than a creator of circumstance, and continue to attract and receive the same results you have to this point. There is no question that you have the power to choose your future actions , which will inevitably determine your outcomes. One thing is certain...you have the ability to utilize your power to choose consciously and turn your life into an incredible journey of unlimited blessings, fulfillment, inner peace, and limitless prosperity whenever you make the choice to do so.
