Here’s a great blog post from Karl Moore at http://www.karlblog.com – Enjoy!

William James (1842 – 1910), was a pioneering American psychologist and philosopher, who said:

“If you would be learned, you will be learned … if you would be rich, you will be rich … but work for whatever it is you want exclusively and don’t at the same time wish for a thousand other things.

“We become what we make our minds to become. It is nobody’s fault that the great majority of the people never make up their minds to become anything at all.”

How true is that?

We are what we make our minds up to become, but it is so easy to be distracted with a million and one different things, especially with the Internet. We are bombarded with new ideas, new information, and new opportunities every day.

But we need to learn to focus and stop ourselves from suffering from information overload.

How many people go through life plodding along, and at the end of it realize they have achieved nothing at all? Don’t let this happen to you!

James went on to say:

“There is no more miserable a human being than one in whom nothing is habitual but indecision.

“The greatest discovery of my generation is that a human being can alter his life by altering his attitudes.”

Once you decide to take action and focus on what you want to become, then you will be well on the way to fulfilling your life’s calling.

At the end of your life you’ll be able to look back and have no regrets.

James said:

“Act as if what you do makes a difference… It does.”

Man is created by God without limitations; he is a limitless creature. His only limitation is his own faith, his own vision, his own acceptance of the truth of his identity.

The only limitation is in thought. Finding himself having to do something he thinks he cannot do, a man or woman has mesmerized himself or herself with bondage, lack, failure. The only law for you is freedom and success, your joy and your perfect expression; your only limitation is that of your own thought.

Jesus tells us, “Whatsoever you shall ask in prayer believing, you shall receive.” “Whatsoever” expresses all substance, ideas, creation; it connotes limitlessness. In Psalm 34:10 we read, “Those who seek the Lord lack no good thing.” This is another blanket promise.

Again, Jesus says, “Fear not, little flock, for it is the Father’s good pleasure to give you the Kingdom.” How could it be expanded further than that? Life is consciousness, and if we are conscious of limitations in life, then so it will be for us. But if we believe with the poet, “No pent-up Utica contracts our powers but the whole boundless universe is ours,” then our whole lives are boundless and limitless. Master Chunyi Lin, in teaching the ancient art of Qigong says what he calls the “password” to universal energy as being, “I am in the universe; the universe is in my body. The universe and I combine together.” Or as Jesus said, “I and the Father are one.”

A good illustration of the limitlessness of life is the water faucet. The supply of water is without limit, relatively of course, but you are given the power to regulate the amount that flows through the faucet at any given time. You can turn it off completely, or you can permit a trickle or a great flood to rush through. You cannot see or touch your own spiritual faucet, but it is the great reality, the control valve of your beliefs and ideas.

To turn off your faucet is to affirm, “Life is miserable; there is no justice; people are evil; things never work out; God is remote if he exists at all.” There are people like this, wallowing in their world of bad luck, and evil exists for them in a very real sense in their conceptions and beliefs.

To turn the faucet on just a little is to believe that it is a terrible world and you have so many problems, but at least there is a little relief through prayer, a refuge however slight and temporary against the woes of the world. In this sense prayer is thought of as a brief pause between problems and worries, and thus it becomes.

But, to turn your faucet wide open and to keep it that way every moment, every hour every day, is to say to yourself and to believe, “There is no power but God; I can of myself do nothing but through the power of God in me I can do all things; all around me there is good and nothig but good. I walk safely, unafraid and untouched, through the valley of the shadow of evil, but evil can never be to me more than a shadow, never a substance. All that I need is with me for complete security, happiness, health, peace, strength and prosperity.”

No matter what circumstances may be ours to face, there are no limitations. Turn on your spiritual faucet. Believe in the limitlessness of God. No man on earth has the right to tell you that God cannot do what needs to be done in your life, your mind, your body. Anyone who does tell you it cannot be done is speaking of his own consciousness of life, not yours, and is the false prophet against whom Jesus warned man.

When facing some challenging situation we should never limit God by thinking what cannot be done, nor should we limit ourselves with thoughts of impossibilities or belittle things that can be done through us. Certainly you might feel that you alone cannot do a certain thing. Jesus had that feeling too, but he knew and proved that through him God could do all things. There is a creative process which is the reality in us.

There is a wonderful message for us all in Jesus’ thought, “It is not I, but the Father.” This is as we submerge the thought of the personal self in its limitations and go to the thought of God as boundless, all-powerful, free, that we become aware of the infinite power and process of God working in and through us in a dynamic way.

Instead of dwelling on personal weaknesses, shortcomings, lack, think rather of strength, perfection, and dauntless courage, and of the great resource of God within you, in the midst of you. Acknowledge that God working through you can do all things and that you can therefore do what needs to be done.

Give the limitless spirit that God has given you a chance. Prove that it will open to you the realm of perfect life and peace and achievement and supply. As the Bible says, “Prove me now, says the Lord of hosts, if I will not open the windows of heaven for you and pour out for you an overflowing blessing.”

Remember, God is Blessing You, Right Now!

The year 2010 can be the best year you have ever known if you will have it that way. To make it so, you do not need to draw up a long list of good resolutions, although these are fine if you can keep them. Whether you have already made some resolutions or not, I suggest you adopt a policy of great expectations instead of good resolutions.

A spiritual law as exact as the laws of gravity, electromagnetics, and atomic fission, stands in back of this phenomenon of great expectations. Jesus stated it in the gospel of Matthew in this way: “Go; be it done for you as you have believed.” (Matt. 8:13) and “According to your faith be it done to you.” (Matt. 9:29) In the J. B. Phillips’ translation we read: “Everything will happen as you have believed it will.” Could you not characterize these statements as saying that convinced expectation is a forerunner of a certain outcome?

What are you expecting in 2010? Your expectations will have much to do with what the year will bring you.

God made you in His image and after His likeness; therefore, it follows that you are creative, even as God is creative. You create your own circumstances through your thinking, feeling, believing, and expecting faculties of mind. Many of the great men of the world have known this. Thomas Carlyle put it this way: “Man makes the circumstances and, spiritually as well as economically, is the artificer of his own fortune.” Disraeli said, “Man is not the creature of circumstances. Circumstances are the creatures of men.”

Behind every outward circumstance stands an unseen, invisible thought, feeling, or word – an expectation of good or ill. The Bible tells us: “Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.” (Prov. 4:23, KJV) The “heart” here means our deepest inward convictions and beliefs about what we think we are worthy of having, in the outer, as a part of our life experience.

The word to be stressed as yo make your own blueprint of your expectations for the upcoming year is “great.” Great expectations! Make those expectations large, if you would experience the largeness of God’s abundant giving. All the good and great desire for more health, wealth, and happiness, is really His own spiritual desire to fulfill Himself in and through you – in a joyous, rich, and expansive way of life.

Remember, only a happy new you produces a happy new year!

I would like to share with you a prayer, coming to you straight from my own heart. I pray that this year may be a truly happy year for you, a year filled with rich and wonderful belessings. I pray that it may be a year in which you walk in close companionship with God, a year in which you know and feel God’s loving Presence enfolding you and your loved ones. I pray that this may be a year in which the good is magnified in your heart and in the heart of every person, a year in which all of us may come to see more clearly our oneness with one another. I pray that, in the words of Psalms 65:11, “Thou crownest the year with thy goodness.”

We often talk a lot about giving, because one of the great Truths, one of the great laws given to us through Jesus, tells us “give, and it shall be given unto you.” Certainly, giving is one of the great expressions of life to prepare the way for the greater good that we all need and desire.

But a subject that is seldom considered is the other side of the coin, and that is receiving. This could well be one of the most difficult things for many of us, the ability to receive graciously.

When we refuse a gift that someone graciously offers us, in a way we cut off our good and deny the other person the opportunity of demonstrating his or her good through giving.

There is a spiritual law involved here. Things come to us as a result of the law of attraction, and when we refuse to receive we are cutting off that law of attraction. When another person wants to give, it is his or her desire to demonstrate through the law of giving and receiving. How many times we pray for help in some way, but when we get offers of help, so often we say, “Oh, I couldn’t let you do that!”

One of the great difficulties of being what I call the “chief cook and bottle-washer” and caregiver for my wife, Kathryn, is in accepting offers of help. It’s not that I don’t want the help, but I most often don’t know how a person could best help. I seek to graciously accept their offer of help, but I find that don’t necessarily follow up in calling the person so that they can give in the way they want to. So I may unwittingly be denying the person the pleasure of giving and perhaps also of receiving their own good.

On the other hand we have a very dear friend who, until recently, would insist on picking up the tab whenever we went out for a meal together. We felt greatly blessed by the generosity of the person, but also felt denied the opportunity of being the giver from time to time.

When we did have the opportunity to pick up the tab, our friend would resist us doing so until we said “Please, just say thank you!” So now, since our dear friend has learned to accept and graciously receive as well as to give, we all feel more comfortable in going out together.

All gifts come out of the divine flow. We are told, “Every good gift and every perfect gift comes down from the Father on high.” God is the great giver of the gift itself, so when the gift comes, no matter whose hands it may come through, we must learn to give thanks to God as the source and bless the channel through which it comes.

In the law of “give and you shall receive,” of course, there is a very subtle point. If we find that we are giving because of the joy that we get through giving, then it may be that we are not really fulfilling the law but just trading one thing for another.

One of the best kinds of giving is to occasionally let the other person do the giving because then we give way, then we give lovingly and allow him or her the opportunity of sharing in the giving. We may say of another person, “But he doesn’t have enough, and I have plenty,” so we refuse his giving, but then we cut off his good and hold him in bondage to a negative thought.

I like to think that if Jesus was walking on this earth today, he would add to the beatitudes that he has already given us to love and live by another one such as this: “Blessed are they who receive with a gracious heart, for their gift is the kingdom of heaven.”

In the days of the mighty sailing ships, when brave souls voyaged into the unknown, dependent on the winds and their as-yet incomplete knowledge of geography and navigation, one of the greatest and most dangerous challenges was to traverse the area known as “the doldrums.”

Extending about 30 degrees on either side of the equator, the doldrums are subject to days, weeks, even months of no wind at all. After a long and difficult crossing from Europe to South America, lying becalmed in the doldrums – with no land in sight and with the ship’s supply of fresh water dwindling – was a terrible and life-threatening situation.

But history and legend offer us some fascinating insights into the power of our own thinking and belief. Back then no one had yet figured out how to determine longitude, although latitude was easily calculated. So if you could not see recognizable land, you could only know in what band of latitude you currently were. Exactly where you were in that ring around the earth was, at that time, unknowable.

And so it happened that at times a ship would fetch up off the coast of South America, out of sight of shore, fresh water supplies exhausted and death knocking at the door. Then, with what must have been the sweetest sound those sailors could ever have hoped for, the lookout would suddenly call out that a ship was approaching in the distance.

Once the ship was within hailing distance, the cry went up: “Water! Give us water!”

And the reply would come back, “Lower your buckets over the side.”

You see, although the sailors didn’t know it, they were afloat in a virtual river of drinkable and life-sustaining water flowing from the mouth of the powerful Amazon River, which carries nearly 20 percent of all the earth’s runoff water into the sea with such force that the fresh (or brackish but safe) water flows as far as 100 miles out into the Atlantic.

The sailors, dying of thirst, only THOUGHT they were experiencing lack. The REALITY was that they were afloat in a literal sea of abundance. Exactly what they needed was within their reach the whole time, but the APPEARANCE of scarcity and their BELIEF in that appearance threatened to overpower them.

They could have died – and many certainly did – believing in lack while surrounded by abundance.

In his amazing 1910 forgotten classic, The Science of Getting Rich, Wallace Wattles writes:

“I have said that people get rich by doing things in a certain way, and in order to do so, people must become able to think in a certain way.

“A person’s way of doing things is the direct result of the way he thinks about things.

“To do things in the way you want to do them, you will have to acquire the ability to think the way you want to think. This is the first step toward getting rich.

“And to think what you want to think is to think TRUTH, regardless of appearances.

A couple of months ago, my friend TERESA ROMAIN of Access Abundance [ www.accessabundance.com ] wrote in my ezine, The Certain Way, about how Galileo changed the world by looking at things from a new perspective. By dropping the prevailing attitude that the sun revolved around the earth, he was able to see that the opposite was, in fact, the truth.

The key to finding the truth, she noted, was choosing to cast off the old notion and look at the situation anew, through a new lens. Teresa wrote:

“The path that lies before you is one of unlimited abundance. And it begins by SEEING the abundance available all around you.

“As you begin to experience life through the new lens of abundance, you’ll find that many of the problems you face today will simply disappear. As for the ones that remain, your relationship to them will have changed profoundly, empowering you to take actions that are congruent with and support abundance.”

What old beliefs, what old ways of looking, seeing, and perceiving do YOU need to cast off right now, my friend? If you find yourself “in the doldrums,” how can you take a fresh look today and begin to see the abundance that surrounds YOU so that you are empowered – not becalmed and hopeless?

The choice is always available. If you have chosen unwisely before, remember that every moment is new and the great power lies in your ability to CHOOSE AGAIN, no matter the appearances and no matter what it seems everyone else thinks or does.

Teresa says that this choice “is the path that leads, ultimately, to the fulfillment of your dreams.” Mr. Wattles says this choice is “the first step toward getting rich.”

And, bearing in mind those long-ago sailors, I would add that this choice can be the ultimate choice – for death or for life itself.

That choice, every moment, is yours. Which way do you choose – right now?

(This article is adapted from an original article by Colin Joss, of “Back Roads Marketing” in the UK)

The Beatles have always had a soft spot in my heart because when living in England before I moved to the United States, I had a very slight personal connection with them besides loving their music.

My martial arts instructor, Baron Omidi, had owned a nightclub in London before opening the Martial Arts School of Self-Defense where I attended and eventually achieved my black belt. Baron was the one who gave the Beatles their first start in London long before they became famous.

Also, my friend with whom I worked as a typesetter on the night shift in Manchester, England, for some time, lived next door to Paul McCartney’s then girlfriend Linda who later became his wife. We would often see Paul going in and out of the house. 

“All You Need is Love” was, of course, one of the Beatles greatest hit songs. And it expressed a great truth when it ended up with the words “Love is all you need.”

Love is an emotion that has inspired countless songs and ballads and stories and lives. Love is an emotion for all ages from the womb to the tomb. Love is an emotion that takes different shapes and forms, from maternal love to filial love to love between partners in relationship to love for friends. Love is a powerful emotion that (is said to) transcend all.

Love is a decision. In a relationship, once the initial heart-stopping “crush” has worn off, the relationship is sustained by a “decision to love.” Once the rose-tinted glasses are off and the idiosyncrasies of the “other” have stopped being charming and cute, commitment is called for.

Ernie Larson, author of Stage II Recovery, said that a relationship can be described by a telephone wire. The two poles holding up the wire are the partners in a relationship and the line strung between them is love. The wire or the love can flow only as long as both poles are upright, neither pole can support the wire on its own.

Love is a powerful, positive energy. The universe is filled with love, it is filled with positive energy. This positive energy is available for all of us to tap into. Love will fill us with peace and tranquillity. Love can make the whole world live in perfect harmony. Actions inspired by love are noble actions.

The Law of Attraction tells us that “like attracts like.” It says we need to fill ourselves with positive energy so that we attract positive energy. Then we need to focus single-mindedly on our goal, on our ambition. The positive energy and the focus on our goal, with the unwavering belief that we can achieve our goal, will make our dreams come true, will give us the sweet taste of success.

Our dreams are within our grasp, but success does not come easy. It requires focus and dedication. It requires us to embark on the journey toward our goal. Along the way there will be potholes and road bumps. Along the way there will be crossroads that will allow us to choose whether to continue on our journey or to change tracks completely. At times the road will be so bumpy that we will need to take a diversion. Our focus on our goal, however, will always bring us back to the road.

Along the road we will also meet many passersby, most of whom will be strangers. We will have the choice of nodding to them in greeting or not meeting their eye and just passing by like ships in the night. We may also choose to let them walk by our side and exchange stories with them. The shared experience will make us richer. We may choose to help them carry their burden or we may choose to take up their offer to lighten our own burden. The journey will seem shorter and easier with another by our side.

As we develop a relationship of love and fill ourselves with positive energy, the road bumps will get smoothened and the road will seem straighter. The road to our goal will be full of choices we need to make and we will have the freedom to choose.

Remember, God is Blessing You Right Now!

Here’s a thought – what are you thinking now? Is your thought positive or negative?

Well, here’s a positive thought for you to ponder: I’m sure you have a bright idea hidden somewhere in the back of your mind that you just can’t wait to test out.

Of course you’re not the only one with the bright idea. So what motivates you to churn those creative, or even inspiring, juices to their utmost flavor?

It’s always best to set up a personal goal where you can accomplish the most in record time, maybe like mowing the lawn in an hour before the big game on TV. A correct and positive attitude in whatever you do will make things easier, and even enjoyable.

Here are some tips for the next seven days, even if you’re just sitting in your favorite couch. An idea takes time to form in your head and is always at work while you are busy sitting.

Positive thinking can help you realize and manifest things that are often thought impossible. Thinking big is indeed the American way and that is what has made our country prosperous.

1. Take passionate action toward living your life by design. Talk is cheap. Action puts deposits in the bank of a passionately authentic future. Without action, passion is void.

This is what dreams are made of, where you start by tinkering with your mind, then with your hands. And if the idea weakens, you can always go back to it later until you finish it.

2. Commit to yourself as well as those you love to create powerfully a life you can love. Instead of reacting, commit to creating from your heart and soul, out of love rather than fear. The American dream will always be there, but a dream will still be a dream without motion. Be amazed as the transformation begins.

3. Recognize and embrace the thought that each moment is perfect regardless of its outcome. Every time you hit on something that may appear too extreme, why not give it a shot and see if it will work. You will be surprised to see that there are other ways to get the task done in time. If you are not pleased with the outcome, decide to use that moment to learn from and to make the appropriate shift.

4. Dwell completely in a place of gratitude. Learn to utilize what you have in your hands and make use of it in the most constructive way. Slipping into neediness will become less of a habit when you repeatedly shift toward gratitude, away from a poverty consciousness.

5. Use a passion formula of recognize/re-evaluate/restore in place of the shoulda/woulda/coulda whirlwind. The former is based in increased knowledge and abundance while the latter focuses on scarcity and lack. As you face people or tasks that may seem harder then scaling the summit of the Himalayas, allow yourself to realize that the task is just as important as giving out orders to your subordinates. You would rather be richly passionate!

6. Keep humor at the forefront of thought, laughing at and with yourself when possible. You may find yourself quite entertaining when you loosen up! I am yet to see a comedian ever go hungry even though his jokes are as “old as great-grandma.” Life has so much more to offer than to allow you to mope around in self pity. Humor is very attractive, very passionate and life-giving.

7. Believe that you are the architect of your destiny. No one can take your passionate future from you except for you! Create your life authentically. As long as there’s still breath in your body, there is no end to how much you can accomplish in a lifetime. The concept of thinking big is all about enjoying your work, which will lead to celebrating a discovery that is born within your hands. Watch everything flow into place with perfect, passionate precision.

Without positive thinking in your life, you’ll just be a dim bulb in a dark corner. So instead of subjecting yourself to thoughts of what your life is doomed for, make your path by taking the first step with a positive attitude. Enjoy!

Rev. Alan A. Rowbotham
