Comments on: Belief 101 http://www.thoughtsstorieslife.com/2011/04/belief-101/ A Chick on a Mission... to PROVE Anything is possible for ANYONE. Mon, 26 Apr 2021 07:27:23 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.1.6 By: Sarah Centrella http://www.thoughtsstorieslife.com/2011/04/belief-101/#comment-167 Mon, 11 Jul 2011 16:33:47 +0000 http://www.thoughtsstorieslife.com/2011/04/belief-101.html#comment-167 I can understand your confusion there are a lot of mixed messages out there. I do not agree with everything in The Secret mainly for that reason. To me it focused way too much on materialism and getting specific THINGS.

The Law of Attraction (which is where Rhonda learned much of what she teaches from various LOA leaders) is what I more closely follow. Teachers like Louise Hay. They focus on getting YOU inline with the universe and then the rest naturally comes.

Focusing on THAT picture, and wanting THAT picture to come true alone will NOT make it happen. (this is where so many ppl watched The Secret, did a vision board, nothing happened and they said the whole thing is BS). What WILL make it happen is focusing on the feeling (which you mentioned) that makes you happy ABOUT that picture. That is what I call “The Experience”.

It’s important to note that if you read the My Story Link on this blog you will see that for most of my vision board items they came true exactly like the picture, but NOT in a way I would of imagined when I put the picture up. For example instead of staying at The Paris Hotel in Vegas for a girls weekend which would of cost me personally a lot of money, I stayed there for work first class and didn’t even spend $10 of my own money on that trip. Does that distinction make sense?

We focus too much on a specific picture and HOW WE THINK it should manifest, whereas if we just focused on how great that experience would be and FEEL it visualize ever detail of how it would make us feel, then it will come to us, some how some way. And that is the magic of it. These are seemingly small differences but if you can really get your head around them and believe them, it will start to work for you.

I absolutely believe in hard work. Like anything else you must put lots of hard work into it, both getting your mind in the right place, which takes work and practice, but also actual work towards your goals. Had I sat home and lived off welfare when my husband left I would of never seen any of those visions manifest. Instead I got a job, worked harder then most, kept working and pushing and then the rewards began to fall in line.

The true LOA is NOT about sitting back and waiting for pictures to manifest in your life. It’s about living your life by those principles to the very core, and those are just the physical representations of the transformation in your life.

I hope that helps 🙂

But what if I really want THAT picture on the board? You talk about hard work. Don’t get me wrong; I would do so if it would change my life, but The Secret says that it doesn’t take hard work, that it must feel like it’s easy. So you will know that you’re on the right path. I’m confused..

Thank you for your encouragement it means the world.

And to the person wanting to know who to believe in life again? Read the post “Believe. But How??” that might help you make that connection. Belief is work. The work comes from continuously killing the evil voices of doubt in your head. It’s really more that in the beginning then anything else. Make that your step 1. just focus on killing doubt, belief will eventually come as a result of not focusing on the doubt. Then follow the steps here, they work!
