What We Think, We Become – Buddha

As I work with students and clients, I become more aware of the truth within these wise words, “What we think, we become.” Buddha

“Without exception, that which you give thought to is that which you begin to invite into your experience.”

~ Abraham hicks

I always emphasize the importance of aligning the vision of your desire with both, thoughts and words. This is what Innergy Alignment Mastery is about. Having a clear image of that what you want to manifest, and monitoring your thoughts as much as possible will determine your rate of success. You may notice that initially, it will take a conscious effort to avoid  giving more energy to what you don’t want to manifest in your life.

Abraham Hicks explains it this way, “When you see something you would like to experience and you say, “Yes,I would like to have that,” through your attention to it you invite it into your experience. However, when you see something that you do not want to experience and you shout, “No, no, I do not want that,” through your attention to it you invite it into your experience.”

There is always a correlation between your thoughts, words and your reality. The Law of Attraction is always at work, whether you are aware of it or not. Just as the law of gravity and many other laws. We become what we think, but have you ever wondered why is so easy to ruminate on negative thoughts? Neuroscience shows that we are wired to constantly ruminate on negative thoughts, feelings, and fantasies. Unfortunately, doubts and fears are normal -even essential – psychological processes that are hardwired into our brain’s anatomy. One side of our prefrontal cortex is a “pessimist,” a cautionary inner voice telling us to wait (procrastinate). The other side is an optimistic problem solver. Many self doubts are memories being replayed. They aren’t real, but we sometimes believe they are. These can be reduced through positive psychology training, mindfulness, and various neurocoaching strategies designed to build self-esteem and confidence.

By now, you must be wondering, but how is it possible that I could be creating I  an undesirable reality? The fact that  the thoughts that create your reality aren’t clear in your consciousness, due to the gap in time between the moment when you held such thoughts and the time they manifested in your experience, makes it even more dificult to grasp.

I invite you to look back into you to keep your mind open as you read the story below from one of my clients that I will call, Nancy.

“I had been recently promoted to a managerial position, promotion that I had worked hard to achieve for a long while. At the same time, I was finally getting in touch with my true calling in life. I remember talking to some friends with excitement about my future with my new found passion. Also, how I didn’t see myself sticking with a job like the one I had that hardly provided any feeling of fulfillment in my life.

I kept performing my job duties without being fully committed to the company I worked for. I couldn’t wait to leave the place but at the same time, it was hard to let go of the position and benefits I had. Almost by the time of my next anniversary, I received the news that after a company restructure, my job position was no longer needed. I was bitter, and all I could see was myself as a victim. It was just unfair that they could do that to me and not even give me a good reason to support their decision. I knew nothing about the law of attraction and the power of our thoughts then, but as I started working with you, I realized how I had created the experience just with the thoughts and even the literal and verbal expression of my desire of “not wanting or intending to stay stuck” in that type of job.”

What has been your experience with the law of attraction? Can you pinpoint a specific experience and the thoughts that created the desired or undesired experience?
