“Claude Bristol wrote In The Magic Of Believing ‘You see the same force actively at work in the fluctuations of the stock market. Unfavorable news immediately depresses prices, while favorable news raises them. The intrinsic values of stocks are not changed, but there is an immediate change in the thinking of the market operators, which is reflected at once in the minds of the
holders. Not what will actually happen, but what security holders believe will happen causes them to buy or sell. In the Depression years – and there may be years like them in the future – we saw this same suggestive force working overtime. Day after day we heard expressions such as, “Times are hard,” “Business is poor,” “The banks are failing,” “Prosperity hasn’t a chance,” and wild stories
about business failures on every hand, until they became the national chant. Millions believed that prosperous days would never return. Hundreds, yes thousands, of strong-willed men go down under the constant hammering, the continuous tap-tapping of the same fearful thoughts. Money, always sensitive, runs to cover when fear suggestions begin to circulate, and business failures and
unemployment quickly follow. … There will never be another business depression if people generally realize that their own fearful thoughts literally create hard times. They think hard times, and hard times follow. So it is with wars. When peoples of the world stop thinking of depressions and wars, they will become nonexistent,
for nothing comes into our economic sphere unless we first create it with our emotional thinking.’
DEVELOP THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE, MINDSET AND BELIEFS TO TRANSFORM YOURSELF
Actions follow thought. Thought precedes action. What consumes the mind becomes the reality. Hypochondria would not exist otherwise. The benefits of the Placebo Effect would not be possible. Ideas become reality. When focused, people make plans, work their plans and bring into being the thoughts once only dreamed. What we focus on expands. Good or bad, the choice is ours.
How long do you suppose it will take for humans to realize we make our world through mind power transmuted into active reality. We fear the worst and bring it on ourselves as Job complained. We could create the best, if only we would. How long? If you say never, or a very long time that is what is bound to be. If you think, how soon can we bring about positive changes?
Well, then perhaps you understand the difference. If you think it is hard, it is. Instead, think ‘I can do this. We can do this.’ If it is to be, it is up to me. Spread joy. Spread positivity. Imagine a positivity virus infecting people with understanding, joy, love, compassion, tolerance, acceptance and kindness. We can do it. You can light a million candles off one candle if yours is lit first.
DEVELOP THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE, MINDSET AND BELIEFS TO TRANSFORM YOURSELF
The machinery is set in motion. The powers that be rule by chaos on confusion. We don’t have to accept that it will always be the way it is. If we do, we’re defeated before we begin. We must imagine a better day taking place right now. Live from the feeling of the wish fulfilled. That IS what people are already doing when they expect and think the worst. Get it. It is what we do.
That’s why attitude is the greatest predictor for your success. If you aren’t thinking positively, what are you thinking? If you aren’t positively creating and attracting, what are you doing? If you aren’t moving forward, where are you, what are you doing? Two forms of matter cannot occupy the same space. You can’t love two masters. Get it. Choose the world you want to live in and create it.
It IS why Gandhi said, ‘Be the change you want to see in the world.’ Stop tolerating discord. Stop accepting the lowest standards. Stop accepting violence and hate. Start thinking and feeling unity and harmony. Start expressing love and kindness. Start promoting harmony and cooperation. Together we can change the world. Teams can win because they act together as a united force. Become a positive force for good. Don’t let the lowest form of thinking rule the day. Become a champion and a victor for a better world by being a better you. Celebrate everything” Rex Sikes
