“Consciousness Creation is about the power of our thoughts to create the life we wish to experience.” — Dr. Wayne W. Dyer
Examples: if you’re wanting to have great health, but in your thoughts coming from a place of sickness, you’re creating more of that sickness rather than health; if you’re visualizing meeting your perfect partner, but a part of you thinks this ‘perfect’ person doesn’t exist, then this limiting belief overrides your specific intention and actually creates more of lack; if you have a goal to attract a better job but you consistently doubt your ability to make it happen, then this doubt become stronger that your desire to have a great job and projects a dark void whereat your true desire can’t manifest. See how it is happening?
Of course, there’s a lot of other factors contributing to this process of ‘mis-creating’, but the core of your creations and mis-creations is right there – if you want to experience what you want, you have to pay attention to your thoughts, i.e. create consciously!
In his ‘10 Secrets for Success and Inner Peace’ (2001), Wayne Dyer says that when you use your mind to empower you, you’re appealing to that which uplifts and raises your spirits. If a simple thought that makes muscles of your arm go weak or strong, imagine what it must be doing to all of the other muscles and organs of your body! Your heart is a muscle that’s weakened by thoughts that disempower you. Your kidneys, liver, lungs, and intestines are all surrounded by muscles that are affected by your thoughts… - Can you see now how your own ‘mind-body’ connection is being manifested in your life?
One of the thoughts that make most people the weakest, both emotionally and physically, is shame, which produces humiliation. Next ones are guilt, blame and despair. Some of us know quite well what perfectly debilitating, immobilizing and paralyzing effect those thoughts and then emotions have on us! It makes us completely lose the present and live totally and completely in the past while dwelling over our ‘past mistakes’, things that can’t be undone, etc…
The next great disempowering prominent thoughts that make us weak (and sick!) are fear, anger and hate. Some can argue that anger makes you feel strong – well, perhaps for a short time (because it induces an immediate adrenal ‘fight or flight’ response (as well as fear), but in a long run – all negative thoughts create a weakening condition to the whole you (mind-body-spirit).
Negative thoughts (for instance, fear) create negative emotion -->feeling-state-condition-symptom-action-result. Positive thoughts (for instance, love) --> create the same chain, only in a positive, constructive, leading to your Purpose, direction. You chose. When you’re in fear, you’ve out of love. You can’t be in two places at once – it’s either fear, or love.
There’s always a CHOICE.
Choice that you have to make to live in the present and let go of the past, or live in the past that you can’t change anyway… It’s always your choice whether or not you’re ready to release your shame, guilt, blame and despair. You can chose to let it go, forgive yourself and others, and allow yourself to feel free of those negative disempowering you, emotions. Or you can chose to carry them around, feel really bad to continue living in this misery and being unable to change anything… or feeling bad for having these feelings and not even connecting them with your own thoughts that produced them in a first place…
Do you know (perhaps, you have experienced) how great it feels when you do release your guilt, shame or despair? When you release your anger and fear? It’s like removing a huge weight from your shoulders; it’s like growing wings and wanting to fly; it’s like as if your heart is opening up and blossoming with love, acceptance and appreciation of the present… It’s truly beautiful ... These ones – Love, Joy, Peace, Acceptance, Willingness, Appreciation, Gratitude – are very empowering thoughts --> and thus emotions-feelings-states-conditions-actions-results.
And all of this is about your conscious decision to be in charge of your thinking. Because you know that your thoughts create your reality.
OK. Now you will probably ask – ‘So, what if I don’t like what I am getting in life? Should I just change my thoughts, and I’ll get the results I want? Well... there’s of course quite a few steps to consider, in between - for instance, your intention & focus, your values, beliefs, decisions, expectations, goals, mission, vision, purpose and other important stuff that influence your end result, but basically that is true – what you think about today eventually, depending on how much time it will take for your thoughts to manifest in a physical World, becomes your Reality.
The main question for You is - if the dreams you have and the end results you get are not even close, can you regulate this process to your favor, starting at a ‘thought’ point and ending at a ‘result’ point? And if you seriously take into consideration that ‘your Thoughts create your Reality’, can you re-learn how to think, or rather can you re-manage your thought process in order to create a different, more satisfying reality? Can you re-pattern your thoughts to re-design your life, consciously and deliberately? Can you become a MASTER of your reality?
Yes, you can! Even on a cellular level. It’s been researched, proven, and quantum scientists have no doubts about it. Me neither :)
Again, you can ask – Why?
Because a real change happens instantly, the moment you initiate a change in your thoughts. When you change your energy, or in other words, when you shift your own vibration from a lower one to a higher one, and align it with your intention and the Source (Universe, God, Ultimate Power, Higher self, Guidance – whatever you call it !) the instant change takes place. How long it will take for this inner change to be fully experienced by you and others around you, in the outer, physical, world – depends on how clear you are on what you want (i.e. your intention) and how well you are aligned with the Source. Some of your thoughts will take effect immediately, while others will take longer to be experienced.
This holistic nature of the process of manifestation of our true desires requires us to look deeper than just simply focusing on what you want. Happiness and Success ( in any and every area of your life!) - requires honest look at the energy of your whole (holistic) life.
In ‘Secrets of Success’ by Sandra Anne Taylor and Sharon Klingler (2008), it’s beautifully stated that it can be very liberating to finally realize that your consciousness is the primary generator of the situations and people that make up the tapestry of your life. Over time, you can see how each experience follows the patterns of your powerful, yet predictable, consciousness output. And if you don’t like the trends you’ve been experiencing, at least there’s something you can do about it. You can shift your consciousness projection so that you can determine for yourself exactly what you want to create…
Tips: it is important to know that once you have decided to make a change, you have to be persistent and consistent with this intention all the way. Otherwise, if you fluctuate and constantly change your wants and desires or direction you’re going, you’ll be providing confusing messages to those powerful forces ‘upstairs’ and most likely will be getting results that you don’t want… It is all about continuing to think the right thoughts (good, positive, high-vibrational); continuing to feel the right feelings (positive, congruent, aligned with your inner guidance, or the Source) and continuing to believe and expect it to manifest in your experience, to continue creating the reality you want.
Your consciousness is a picture of your holistic self. It is a multidimensional representation of who you really are – a holistic being. Doesn’t it make sense to become more holistically intelligent and embrace your own power to manifest results you want in your life?
At least to me, it makes perfect sense…:)
This is WHY I believe is very important to continue this dialog on ‘how to create the reality you want’. Some people call it – ‘How to get what you want’. I don’t particularly like the word ‘get’ because it’s not about getting. I believe it is about creating. Because we create our own reality. And because we are MASTERS of our own creations. We are holistic beings. We are creators. And we want to create our new reality intelligently - hopefully with LESS challenges, negativity, break-downs, dis-ease, ill-ness...and with MORE joy, happiness, positive results, success, and well-ness.
In the next issues we continue our chosen Journey and will talk about ‘other interesting stuff’ - your dreams, intentions, desires, expectations, beliefs, values, intuition, creativity, emotions, feelings, stress response, piece of mind - all these beautiful and useful to become aware of, things that constitute your Holistic Intelligence.

We need to know 'where we are' to get 'where we want to be'...
What are THOUGHTS?
'Nothing is, unless our thinking makes it so'... William Shakespeare
We continue on our Journey of discovering how to get where we want to be... And the next step is - bringing your awareness to where you are (i.e. Here & Now) ... Let's start from the very beginning - our thoughts.
You’ve probably heard many times that Thoughts create Reality. This notion has become sort of epidemic in the recent years after these two shaking our current reality films ‘What The Bleep Do We Know’ and ‘The Secret’ came out with huge volumes of following literature, personal development and self-growth seminars and workshops, Law of Attraction CDs, DVDs and training courses. Of course, there were spiritual leaders and authors before that, like Deepak Chopra, Esther and Jerry Hicks (‘Abraham Teachings’), Eckhart Tolle, Wayne W. Dyer, and many other brilliant teachers. But I believe that these two films became sort of an eye-opening, a ‘reference point’ for many to really start the awakening process about your own ‘Self’.
Let’s just stop for a second, take a deep breath, relax, and... think quietly about the following statement (some people call it ‘meditation’ :) –
Thoughts create Reality. Thoughts are Things. We create our reality.
So... what are thoughts? Basically, as defined by multiple dictionaries – it’s an ACT; a PROCESS; a PRODUCT or a FACULTY of thinking, i.e. intellectual activity ( remember the ‘mind’ part, IQ, in our ‘Holistic model’? – this is why we are beginning to explore this process of manifesting your dreams starting with thoughts). Also, thought - is the content of cognition and the main thing you are thinking about; a consideration, reflection, deliberation, regard, meditation, contemplation, introspection, rumination, cogitation, brainwork, cerebration, view, belief, idea, thinking, concept, opinion, conclusion, assessment, notion, conviction, judgment, conception, conjecture, study, estimation, attention, care, regard, scrutiny, heed, intention, plan, idea, design, aim, purpose, object, notion, expectation, hope, dream, prospect, aspiration, concern, care, anticipation, regard, anxiety, sympathy, compassion, thoughtfulness, solicitude, attentiveness, and other. You can check it yourself through links above.
Isn’t it beautiful that by just creating and using our thoughts we can immediately (without even thinking about it!) access so many other things in our amazing ‘thinking’ realm? :)
Based on the above findings, I will conclude that thoughts are the filters that process information to lay out a solid foundation for what we create in our reality, those multiple blocks we operate with on a daily basis without even paying much attention to the simple What we really think about and How we think about that. Can you see it? What are you thinking about Now? Exactly! You have no idea. And Why you are thinking about it? And can you feel what emotions and sensations those thoughts you are thinking, create in your body? Can you make a connection between the thoughts you’re just thinking and the feelings that you might feel all of a sudden? Perhaps, you have some idea about mind-body connection... but not really sure how it plays out in your own mind and your own body, right? :)
It is believed that thoughts are those ‘things’ that design, build and regulate our perception of the World at large and of every situation in particular; and based on which we make our decisions, set goals, form expectations, perform actions, and finally achieve results. Can we say then that thoughts basically lay out, construct, and manage our lives? Does it begin to look interesting, hah? Great. Perhaps, we can even say that thoughts are those primary things that ‘prepave’ our further experience... Wow! Is this true? But then this notion puts too much responsibility on us, decision makers, of What and How we think about things, right? Right! And a deeper understanding and acceptance of such a view also gives us an incredible knowledge that we CAN change our reality by changing the way we think about it.... Then it just becomes an old therapeutic tool ‘if you can’t change reality, change your perception of it’ – sounds familiar? Do you see where we’re going with this? Good!
I hope now you are more or less convinced or at least aware, that your thoughts create your reality. But if you think that whatever your thoughts are today you’ll manifest the results of it (i.e. create your immediate reality) today, it would probably be a mistaken thinking… Why? Simply put – because it takes time for thoughts to manifest into the physical world. Of course, some of the things that happen today are created by the thoughts you think today, but a huge volume of things that you experience today, are the result of the thoughts you’ve been thinking earlier in the past. Depending on what those things are, some of them take different amount of time to manifest into present reality.
Can you see now why it is critically important to think ‘good, positive, high-vibrational’ thoughts? Because, depending on what thoughts you’re having today, you’re ‘prepaving’ your future results (manifestations)! Once you understand that the present moment is not only created by present thoughts, but also by past thoughts, you will know the reason why you still experience certain things in the present that are not in alignment with your present thoughts. The causes of your present reality may extend far into the past. Thus, here's another important message for you - be at cause, not at the result!
Tips: when you look at what is happening NOW and wonder why it is happening or how did you create it, or is it you who created it in a first place, it will be helpful to be aware that what is happening in your reality today is a cumulative effect of your present and past (that took place months and years ago) thoughts, feelings and actions…
Yeah… Something to think about... - Please do so if you would... Till my posting next week at least :)
Bon voyage! Enjoy your thinking and feel good! :)
