Default How To Apply "The Secret"

By now, I am sure eveyone has heard of "The Secret" BUT...how does one apply it? You must understand how the mind works if you are to become proficient at renewing the mind and living a prosperous filled life - which is MORE than just money!!

You must first understand that the mind is like an iceberg. The part you 'see' (conscious) is only a small part of the whole mind. The subconscious mind is a huge warehouse of knowledge and all of our life experiences that make up our current conscious reality. The subconscious mind has capabilities far beyond our conscious awareness. The subconscious is the natural mind of man. It is his perfect mind, having perfect understanding of his behavior. Within it lies the storehouse about every person, place or condition. It is just a matter of tapping into the power of the subconscious to change your life for the better. Anyone can do it, but not everyone does, because they fail themselves miserably for not realizing it's curative powers.

RULE 1: EVERY THOUGHT OR IDEA CAUSES A PHYSICAL REACTION
Your thoughts can affect all functions of your body! For example, worry can cause ulcers, anxiety can lead to increased pulse rate and possibly high blood pressure. (Immune system is affected) Ideas with strong emotional content almost always reach the subconscious mind. Remember: the subconscious mind is the emotional mind. Emotion surrounds information.

RULE 2: WHAT IS EXPECTED, TENDS TO BE REALIZED
The mind and the nervous system respond only to mental images. The mental image formed becomes the "blueprint" and the subconscious always tries to follow the blueprint. Expectations tend to become a self-fulfilling prophecies.

RULE 3: IMAGINATION IS MORE POWERFUL THAN REASON WHEN DEALING WITH YOUR MIND OR THE MIND OF ANOTHER
Reason is easily over ruled by imagination. Any idea accompanied by strong emotional content is difficult to modify with reason. (we must be wary of leaders who use emotional content).

RULE 4: OPPOSING IDEAS CANNOT BE HELD AT ONE AND THE SAME TIME
You cannot love and hate someone at the same time, for example.

RULE 5: IF AN IDEA HAS BEEN ACCEPTED BY THE SUBCONSCIOUS MIND, IT REMAINS UNTIL REPLACED BY ANOTHER ACCEPTED IDEA.
Once an idea is fixed, it tends to remain fixed. The longer it is fixed the more difficult it is to change it. This is how habits are formed, both good and bad.

RULE 6: AN EMOTIONALLY INDUCED SYMPTOM TENDS TO CAUSE ORGANIC CHANGE IF IT PERSISTS LONG ENOUGH
Many physicians will admit that more than 70% of human ailments are emotionally based rather than organic. The subconscious has a powerful effect on our physical being.

RULE 7: EACH SUGGESTION ACTED UPON CREATES LESS OPPOSITION TO SUCCESSIVE SUGGESTIONS
A mental trend is easier to follow the longer it lasts unbroken. Thus suggestions should begin simply and become increasingly complex for the mind to follow. Once the trend of acceptance has started you may move on to more complicated suggestions.

RULE 8: WHEN DEALING WITH THE SUBCONSCIOUS MIND AND IT'S FUNCTIONS, THE GREATER THE CONSCIOUS EFFORT. THE LESS THE SUBCONSCIOUS RESPONSE
This is analogues to a teeter tauter. When the conscious mind is up (active) the subconscious is down (inactive) and visa versa. This is why willpower does not exist. Willpower suggests that you are trying to do something that you really do not want to do.

Note: The subconscious mind takes everything 'literally'. If you say "I'm mad at something" it may interpret it as "I am insane" Or if a person "gives me a pain in the neck!" You may end up with one.

Many scientists believe that thoughts are energy. As we direct these thoughts toward personal goals, we start physically, emotionally and spiritually, moving toward our desired result.

By the way, my name is Scott Bland. I am a Christian, and believe 100% in the law of attraction. However; if you take time to understand "The Secret" is nothing more than a scientific, humanisitic view of biblical principles you will have HUGE success knowing it is God that ordained the whole law to begin with and Him that allows us to "speak things that be not as though they were" and to "call things into existance."

I could go on and on...BUT, I believe this will help those that really apply it!

Blessed to be a blessing!

I've used the law in my "offline" job with pretty good success. I find it to be very true. I'm still working on learning to apply it in everyday type situations

Great post Scott.

The part i partculary like is "if you take time to understand "The Secret" is nothing more than a scientific, humanisitic view of biblical principles ".

Ever since i read and saw the Secret i have always thought it was just bringing all those "biblical principles" into the 21st Century and making them more universal in a way.

I still think the Secret is great and all but it has been around since the beginning of time, its just that not enough people put it to use.

The Law of Attraction is real. Understanding it thoroughly is another thing. Truly understanding it is extremely important because, just like anyone else, it largely determines what we are getting out of life. It has been working FOR, and AGAINST us since we were born.

"All things are possible to him who believes" (Mark 9:23), all things means just that... ALL things... good and bad!

If you ARE, or ARE NOT, getting the things you really and truly believe, I challenge you to consider what you are thinking about most of the time! "As a man Thinks, so is he" (Proverbs 23:7)!

The teachers of The Secret say that the Law of Attraction means "Thoughts become things." But, in reality, the Law of Attraction means, "What we think about most flows out of our lives!" We find this truth in Proverbs 4:23, "Guard your heart with all diligence, for out of it flow the issues of life."

My question to you is, what are YOU thinking about? What are your issues in life right now? Do you believe for a better marriage, more finances, more joy? Can you believe for a new house? Do you believe that your children will have a college fund with no stress attached to it? Do you believe for an extra $200 per month? Or can you have the faith to believe for an extra $5,000 per month? Remember, it only takes ONE step to get to where you need to go. Insanity is doing the same thing over and over expecting different results.

If you are serious about making a change for the better and desire an income to match your work - email me with "DESIRE CHANGE" in the subject line...I will get you the information right away!

Hi

I know about the secret and apply it but just wanted to let you know another form is ancient forms of chanting through mantra mediation. The Universe is energy and through sacred sound via chanting one can attain the benefits as the secret. Chanting sacred sounds begins an energy flow within the body as it changes the negative to the positive with visualized intention. Just a bit of trivia well worth maybe looking into. Check out Thomas Ashley Farrand mantra meditations if you are interested. I have brought healing, attracting what I want and renewed hope for the future I am materializing.

Question

I didn't believe and yet it worked miraculously for me. So does that defy quantum physics, metaphysics or God?
