Section 4 – Let’s Get Started!
I promise that living life with constant energy and bliss is a fun process; chock-full of unique and wonderful surprises. I cannot promise however that if you ONLY follow the suggestions within this book that all your problems will magically disappear. You need to read between the lines and catch the drift of what the passages in this book are saying. There is a Higher Power which you have access to, and those who understand this are that much further along in the process of living in the flow of pure energy.
I also highly recommend some additional learning materials within the following sections which I truly believe will help catapult you to higher and higher energy levels. These materials have proven to be very effective for many people. I will never endorse any product which I do not believe will help you immensely.
The first step towards increasing your potential energy, and thus your vibrational output, is to realize who you are in this world; in this life and in this Universe.
Try to imagine a sparkling, magnificent, one of a kind classic car. See how that car shines, dazzles, and looks as though it may have just fallen from heaven. It just sits there, taking your breath away with its magnificence and splendor. Imagine how much that car must be worth! Well we are EXACTLY like that car, yet even more so. Let me explain. You see, we are ALL one of kind models, original since the day we were born. You are the only model that exists in the entire Universe! You are truly a one of a kind, meticulously crafted original. All we need to do is get you cleaned up and polished before charging out on the open road, fast, free and full of power, energy and bliss. Of course, you may need a filter change, tune-up, new tires and a transmission flush & fill. You may even need some major engine work and a new paint job. The point is that you are one of a kind; a magnificent, wonderful, ORIGINAL creation who is ready to shine and dazzle everywhere you go from this day forward.
“In all things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us” Romans 8:37
You are not here on earth by mistake; even if you were “unplanned” by your parents. In addition, even if you are the world’s ugliest person or have major physical limitations, you are still a VERY BIG DEAL in the eyes of the Universal Creator. You have MUCH to contribute and to live for. Multitudes of people may be affected by the decisions you make. You are worth so much more than you can even realize, and you are loved WAY more than you can possibly imagine. This love does not die or diminish as you live your life. It is always present. How do I know? Because when you begin tapping into this Higher Energy, you can actually feel its existence. People can also feel this energy coming from you. It does not matter who you are. You can have this energy, and you can exude as much of it as you want and as often as you want.
Be forewarned though: there will be many times when you just do not feel like being a conduit of love and energy, particularly during those times when you are physically and mentally exhausted. Well guess what? That is perfectly okay. Sometimes you just need to relax, sit back and maybe watch some TV or read a book. Never feel that just because your main goal is to raise your potential energy by the process of self love, you must always be bouncy, positive and in a great mood. The process of self love and having a more resilient energy flow is ongoing. It is a continuously evolving process of reaching higher and higher energy plateaus so that even when you are relaxed, you are still an effective conduit of love energy.
This is not some pie-in-the-sky lesson on new age positive thinking. On the contrary, loving yourself is the first and most basic step towards attracting tangible and intangible life victories and being a conduit of energy. What sort of victories? First of all, both the tangible and intangible are interconnected. They are both energy, just in different forms. Therefore the energy which you attract will be in both forms. By vibrating at a higher frequency, you will attract certain people (tangible), circumstances (intangible) and things (either/or) into your life that will bless you in every way imaginable. Amazing ideas, hunches and impulses will come to you when you least expect. In essence, you will attract the same energy to yourself which you are sending out into the Universe. All of these blessings and victories are the result of you emitting a higher frequency. Know that energy is set in motion by freely giving it away, even when you do not feel like it.
“By blessing others, we bless ourselves.” Proverbs 11:25
When you are vibrating at a higher frequency, negative emotions, words and actions directed towards you from others cannot penetrate your wall of energy. In addition, life’s mountains become molehills. Negative, lower frequency vibrations will just bounce right off of you. You may be thinking that this all sounds redundant, and that is because it is. Repetition helps us remember things. Just read the Bible’s New Testament and notice how many times specific points are repeated over and over.
It is very important… no, it is actually imperative that you understand the life you can have if you are just willing to let go of the energy bottlenecks which hold you back from experiencing True Energy, and open your heart to a higher power, or a higher “frequency” if you prefer.
Being a Conduit of Energy
Jesus was the absolute perfect example of a living conduit of love energy when He was in the physical form. Energy flowed through Him so much that everybody just wanted to follow Him around and gather together to hear His words of love and power. His aura was extraordinarily powerful to say the least. When people understood His words, their hearts would soar, and they would be filled with joy and energy. When people were offended by His words, they became defensive and angry. Those people had major energy bottlenecks; the same sort which many of us have today. They were totally close-minded, and mistakenly felt that Jesus was trying to steal their energy, and their way of life. They were clinging very tightly to opposing thought patterns; so much so that they actually had Him murdered for “blasphemy”. Little did they know that Jesus was really trying to give them energy, and teach them how to also be living conduitsn of energy as He was. Jesus Himself said, "I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly" (John 10:10).
Jesus could channel love – the highest and most powerful form of energy in the Universe – in the most amazing of ways. His very touch had the power to heal people. Now I am not saying that everybody can be like Jesus or even should be, but He did show us how to be perfect conduits of love energy and to have life more abundantly; life as in Wealth, Love, Happiness, Joy, Laughter, and Peace; not to mention having more ENERGY! He proved that love energy does indeed exist, and is far more powerful than we can ever imagine. There is an unlimited source of this love which it is available to all of us for free; at anytime, anywhere, and regardless of who we are, what we believe in, or what we have done in our lives up to this point.
“Be still, and know that I am God!” Psalm 46:10
Gratitude
To close this chapter, let us talk briefly about gratitude and why it is vital to having more energy. After learning about your value and worth in this life, and that you are a magnificent creation of pure Love Energy, practicing gratitude on a daily basis is the next step towards entering into life’s river of energy. I am fairly confident that you have heard the expression at least a million times in your life – “the more you give, the more you receive”. However, perhaps you may not have fully understood why it is important to find ways to give of your time, talent, treasure, words of praise, appreciation, etc. Here is the reason in a nutshell: the more you give, the more you increase your capacity to receive.
Proper flow of energy requires actively giving and receiving. This process develops into a magnificent, upward spiral of kinetic energy; elevating you to newer and higher energy levels. As previously mentioned, this is the way we were all meant to live since we were born; in a state of constant bliss, energy and love.
We must make every effort to practice gratitude on a daily (yes, daily) basis. Even if you practice being grateful for just the very simple, every day things such as fresh air, sunsets, or any facet of nature’s pure, unadulterated beauty. Observations such as these are more than adequate.
You may also be grateful for people in your past who have been kind to you in one way or another, or have given you some meaningful guidance and direction. At the very least you will begin feeling lighter, happier, more relaxed and more enthusiastic about life. All you need to do in order to successfully apply the art of being grateful is to become silent for a couple of minutes, clear your mind, take a few deep breaths and reflect on a few simple circumstances or things for which you are grateful.
Sometimes I just reflect on the mere fact that I can see colors. Yes indeed, I am very grateful for the fact that I can look outside and see nature’s many shades of green, along with magnificently colored leaves, flowers, and huge blue skies. I am literally in awe as I look around and notice the beauty which surrounds me at all times, wherever I happen to be.
Even if I am in the middle of a big city where there is not a lot of nature, I take notice of the brilliant skyscrapers which literally take my breath away. I feel grateful that there are some extraordinarily talented architects and engineers who are able to create such immense construction projects, and all the laborers who diligently worked long and hard to bring that architectural drawing into reality.
Even if you are totally blind, be grateful that you can listen to music, birds chirping, or the sound of waves crashing on the shore. If you cannot see or hear, be grateful that you can feel a warm hug from a loved one, or that you are able to smell a sweet perfume. If you have no loved ones, be grateful for the fact that you are alive and have the potential to both give and receive love. Be grateful for the fact that you are loved. You get the point. Take a few minutes every day to reflect on your many blessings, no matter how insignificant you think they may be. It also helps to schedule a certain time during the day to practice this, otherwise you are likely to forget.
I am willing to bet the farm that there is something you can be grateful for right now, at this particular moment. Do you have your health? If not, do you have any family members who care about you? If not, do you have any friends who care about you, and that you also care for? Can you go to a store right now and buy your favorite soft drink? Ok, I know, that sounds a bit absurd to be grateful for the ability to shop for your favorite soda. But if you think about it for a moment, there are literally millions of people around the world who do not have this privilege which most of us so easily take for granted.
The point is that when we are grateful for even the smallest of things, our subconscious minds automatically go to work and begin searching for additional things we should be grateful for, yet do not often think about. When this happens, your capacity for being a natural conduit of energy increases significantly. By practicing gratitude on a daily basis, you will eventually bring into existence even more blessings for which to be grateful.
You will attract more blessings into your life when you affirm to your subconscious mind that you are worthy to receive more blessings. This mental energy signals to the Universe that your capacity has increased, and that you require more gifts and more energy to fill your newly increased capacity. This process is very real, and I want to highlight this point because it is the crux of this section: We attract what we ARE.
Who we are determines what we attract. It is why self love is the initial step towards having more energy and bliss. Love is pure energy in motion… you can literally feel it, and people will also feel it coming from you. It is also why the conscious practice of gratitude actually attracts into our lives even more things to be grateful for.
Your energy will attract more of the same energy; whether negative or positive. Therefore, try to begin and end each day with gratitude – even if you are grateful that you can buy a can of your favorite beverage at your local market! Your capacity will increase each and every day.
Practicing gratitude is incredibly rewarding. You can be grateful for so many things. It may be something from the past that may have had a positive effect on you, or maybe something in the future that you wish to have. Regardless of what it is, try not to be grateful for the same things over and over. Be as varied as possible when thinking about what you are grateful for.
Be grateful for what you will have. It will bring that thing into existence that much faster. You can read more about this in Bonus Section 1: Application of The Secret. Be grateful for everything you can possibly think of. Make it a fun process and do it as often as possible throughout the day, especially during those times when you are feeling down, or during periods of high stress. This will instantaneously lift your spirits.
Be grateful that you already have what it is you desire, and you increase your chances of receiving it by leaps and bounds. Take 30 seconds or so out of every hour of the day to just reflect on something you are grateful for. Very soon your whole outlook on life will change dramatically. You will learn to appreciate life’s “little things” a whole lot more because you will see them in a new light. Your self-love will improve and your love for others will also grow. Your enthusiasm for life will be cranked up a few notches and your stress level will decrease. In general, you will feel happier, more positive, less stressed, and… have more energy!
Visualization
It is important that when you visualize, you do it with feeling and emotion. The reason is that your subconscious mind does not distinguish between a real situation and one that is visualized. If it believes that you are happy and have lots of energy, it will go to work on making that a reality. The Universe has to give it to you because it is the Law of Attraction. Continuous visualization done with feeling attracts that which you visualize. It is really the same concept as energy frequencies attracting like energy frequencies. We attract what we are, so BE that person in your visualizations who is wealthy, or is a conduit of energy, or anything else you wish to have or to be. Our visualizations will always attract a like energy.
If you have tried visualizing before but did not experience positive results, it is probably because there is a part of your subconscious mind which is blocking the flow of energy. Deep down inside, perhaps you feel that you do not deserve what you visualize. If this is the case, you are not alone. This is the main reason why some people do not experience results as quickly others. I suggest you read the bonus section on affirmations, and begin reciting several daily affirmations about how you deserve what you desire. Say them aloud over and over, simultaneously visualizing yourself as the kind of person who deserves those things.
Here is how you should visualize. First, do not try to visualize for more than five minutes at a time. Your mind will become distracted and begin daydreaming about other things. Simply close your eyes and take a few deep breaths. Some people prefer to “warm up their minds” and recite a particular mantra several times to help them focus and concentrate. If so, that is perfectly fine and even recommended. However, simply visualizing with feelings and emotion will still yield positive results.
Next, envision a situation where you already have what you desire. If it is more energy, then visualize a situation where you are just brimming with joy and bliss. Feel that blissful energy as much as you possibly can as you visualize. Visualize people around you noticing this about you and feeling more energetic just being in your presence.
If it is a new car you desire, visualize yourself already owning that car and driving it around town. Visualize yourself driving over to your friend’s house and seeing the look on their face as they admire your brand new car. Be as specific as possible. Visualize the make, the model, the year, interior and exterior color, etc. The more detail you incorporate into your visualization, the more effective it will be.
If you do not have much time alone to visualize, try to use certain times during the day to your advantage. At some point during the day you need to use a restroom, right? As odd as it may seem, take advantage of that time and visualize for a few minutes. You can even visualize when you are taking a shower. If you can be by yourself where nobody can interrupt you, great. But the point is to try and make time to visualize. The benefits will astonish you!
Therefore I say to you, whatever you make a request for in prayer, have faith that it has been given unto to you, and it shall be yours.” Mark 11:24
