Micro Positive + Macro Negative = Good Luck With That

People often wonder why all their positive thinking, affirmations, visualizations and such have yet to produce their dreams lives. Simple enough. You cannot expect the universe to deliver beyond your image of the universe. And you, positive thinker optimistic visualizer, see a universe full of hardship, misfortune, poverty and lack. The deal is off!rnThe fact is everybody who is trying to be more positive in their own lives has fundamentally negative notions about the world that they inhabit. Good luck with that! Try thinking, visualizing and affirming “dry” as you jump into a very wet ocean. Not gonna happen. As it is macro, so is micro.rnIf you continue to see the universe as less than 100% positive then you will struggle to be positive. Results will be paltry and hit or miss. You will continue to struggle between positive thoughts, images, feelings and their negative counterparts. Experience tells that negative is much easier, seems to come naturally. Adhering to positive takes discipline, focus and work. Know why? You are trying to see positive in your life, at the same time that you see so much negative in the big world. Guess which one wins. Yep. Your image of the universe outweighs your image of you like an NFL linebacker does an ant. As long as you see so much negative in the world- AND YOU DO- negative will be much more natural.rnIn Biblical terms judge not lest you live your live through the filter of your judgment. You will live through the filter of your ego’s judgment. And your negative judgment is a downward drag.rnAll so unnecessary. It all just the mind’s hoax. The universe is absolutely, totally 100% positive. It can be no other way. This is not wishful thinking, fantasy, airy-fairy theory or optimism. It is cold hard fact minus ego, minus opinion, minus judgment. Negativity exists nowhere in the universe. It exists only in the mind of man. It is a mental construct that is given a reality by accepting it, reacting to it, building life upon it. But still unreal, untrue, nonexistent.rnSUCCESS IS A FUNCTION OF KNOWING HOW TO LOOK AT THINGS. KNOWING HOW TO LOOK AT THE WORLD AS IT TRULY IS. TO SEE HOW THINGS REALLY ARE. rnAnd there is a fundamental flaw in your understanding. The universe is the totally of is. There is no isn’t in the is. You must get that.rnAll of the hardship, misfortune, poverty and lack that the news media and politicians feed you day in and day out is all a matter of the not. It is all a matter of ego-perceived nonexistence. It’s all about people not having, not being, not doing. And you suck it up like there’s no tomorrow. Having is real. Doing is real. Being is real. Not having is the negation or nonexistence of having and as such literally does not exist and is not real and not true. rnAll problems, all hardship, all misfortune are a matter of “not”. Not enough this, that or something else. All problems and hardship are the ego’s perceived negative. Negativity is as far away from enlightenment and power as you can get. Why? Why is the positive valuable and powerful and the negative useless? Simple. The positive is. The negative is not. The negative has no mass, no energy, no power, no potential, no value. Nothing. Nothing is no thing. A total nonvalue. Of no value. And making it of value, making it real is the fundamental mistake of life. It’s like trying to erect a building on an imaginary, nonexistent foundation. Reacting to the not as though it were the is is the fundamental error. Seeing the not as real is your fundamental mistake. How can the not be part of the is? And the fact is you are almost certainly getting worse despite all your study of success techniques. Americans have become more and more problem and hardship focused. Thanks to manipulative power-hungry politicians and news media looking to fill greatly expanded broadcast schedules. It wasn’t that long ago that “poor” meant one did not have food or shelter. Then somebody decided that “poor” meant the “bottom” 20% no matter how much they have. People have become so negative that they whine that those who don’t have as much as most others are “poor”. High priests of the negative have even gone so far as to declare 99% as poor downtrodden victims!! Negativity gone berserk. rnYou can only be as successful as you are positive. You can only be as positive as you see the universe being positive. Do you see poverty and misfortune? Or blessings and opportunities to be appreciated? Appreciation and gratitude or whining, complaining and pity? Seeing the world as it really is or allowing your ego to create the isn’t? Once you really get that the isn’t isn’t, that the negative is negation and cannot exist, then it’s game over. Simply cast down the images of no value that just keep popping up and attempting to derail you from flow of the 100% positive and abundant universe and its inevitable growth, abundance, and joy. It is those images of negation that keep getting in the way. And that is all that they are or can ever be. There can be nothing more foolish than allowing made-up images to get in the way of your happiness and success. It truly is all good. There is only wealth, strength, vitality, ability. There is only light. Darkness does not exist. Fact! Just let it flow. rnA man turns his back to the sun and sees the darkness of his shadow. Yet even with his back to the sun he is bathed in brilliant sunshine from head to foot. And even the ground where his shadow falls is illuminated by the sun otherwise he could not see one blade of grass or pebble there. When we turn our back to God’s goodness, as we all do, we then experience the darkness created by our own judgment. We are then left to live and move in the darkness created by our ego rather than God’s all goodness. And still that is all there is: God’s goodness. For the taking. Just as the man’s shadow cannot obliterate the sun, our judgments and opinions can not obliterate God’s goodness. Even as turning our back cause the sun to beat on our back, turning our back to God leaves us with His goodness beating on our back. Our egos can only keep us from knowing and experiencing God’s goodness. We all do, in fact, live in the shadow cast by our ego. The more intelligent and educated a person, the bigger the ego. The bigger the ego the more difficult to accept a reality that exists independent of that ego and then the greater the tendency or urge to add to and take away from that reality rnSUCCESS IS A FUNCTION OF KNOWING HOW TO LOOK AT THINGS. KNOWING HOW TO LOOK AT THE WORLD AS IT TRULY IS. TO SEE HOW THINGS REALLY ARE.rnA man has a Honda in his driveway. When he looks out he sees a Honda. The neighbors see a Honda and those driving by see a Honda. Another man has a Honda in his driveway. The neighbors see a Honda and those passing by see a Honda. Every time he looks out he sees “not a Porsche”. Every time he gets in his Honda he thinks ‘not a Porsche”. The truth is that he has and drives a Honda. The darkness perceived by his ego is not a Porsche. Not a Porsche is an opinion or judgment. Honda is the truth.rnThe negative that the second man created steals his joy and it steals his peace. The negative is darkness, decline and death. Death of peace, joy, success, growth. And it’s all made up. Having a Honda is real. Wanting a Porsche is real. Imagining yourself owning a Porsche (if you do in fact imagine it,is real). Seeing yourself driving a Porsche is real. Not having a Porsche is the negation or nonexistence of having a Porsche and as such does not exist and therefore is not real. It is a figment of the ego.rnSUCCESS IS A FUNCTION OF KNOWING HOW TO LOOK AT THINGS. KNOWING HOW TO LOOK AT THE WORLD AS IT TRULY IS. TO SEE HOW THINGS REALLY ARE. That is success and leads to further success and the experience of success.rnYou must get this. Success is seeing the way things are. A mistake is perceiving the not as an is. 2 + 2 really does equal 4. That’s truth. Perceiving 2 + 2 as being 4 is a mistake, and error. It is failure. Proceeding under the misapprehension that 2 + 2 = 4 leads to trouble.rnAppreciatio, appreciation, gratitiude. ALWAYS and in everyhting. The foundation of and gateway to success and growth.
