The Best Years of Your Life… Now!

Beware of the misunderstood and potentially dangerous state of “acceptance”.

When you “accept” something the Universe maintains it in your reality. The Universe is always working as a tool of your desire. If you choose to “accept” what you don’t want – it translates into what you desire! Sounds crazy but that’s how it works folks!

The Universe is always responding to where you place your attention. It its designed to translate your attention into your desire to experience whatever it is you are placing your attention on. It does not differentiate between what you “want or don’t want” – as far as “it’s” concerned you want everything you put your attention on – Got that?

This is a part of the “LIFE PROCESSING RECIPE” that is fixed.

The Universe always maintains the reality of whatever you’re acknowledging. Anything you put your attention on you are acknowledging and accepting as your reality.

That’s why the cliche: “Accept those things you can’t change” – is insane!

Never “accept or allow” as your reality what you think you can’t change. Instead, shift you’re attention away to what you currently believe you can change. Over time what you thought you couldn’t change (and those who don’t understand the Law of Attraction would tell you to “accept”) must also change along with the ongoing shift in your reality…

My own example:

A few years ago I lived in the downtown area of Helena, MT. I had a seperate buiding with a soundproofed recording studio in it. I’d shut the door and it was quite. However my house next door was like any other house in the neighborhood. And being downtown it was almost a nightly ritual to hear a cop car siren or ambulance at some point in the middle of the night…

Although I couldn’t change that noise I refused to accept it!

Instead I “intended” that one day I would live in a place where it was quiet. Quiet like the experience I had in my recoding studio. I never “accepted or allowed” what I didn’t like – the noise in the middle of the night as my permanent reality. Do you “see” what I’m saying here?

I didn’t wake up pissed off every night when the siren woke me up… I just reinforced that soon this would never again be an issue… And imagined a wonderfully quite place to sleep in peace.

I think I’ve heard one siren in the last two years in this wonderful quite place I’ve lived in for the last decade.

NEVER ACCEPT WHAT YOU CAN’T CHANGE!

Shift your attention to those things and activities which will create the reality you want. Never reinforce by accepting or allowing what “appears” to be something you can’t change. Maybe you can’t change “it” but you absolutely can change your reality so “it” is no longer part of your new reality….!

Those of you who read this blog have noticed a few reoccurring themes

A handful of pivotal concepts – I believe once understood – will have a profound transformational
effect on your life. Some are simple and obvious. Some may cut to the very core of who you think you are and face a level of internal resistance that borders on the experience of “gasping for air” as the core of what you’ve become- fights any attempt to alter the balance of “it’s reality”.

The single most profound of these concepts being your ego

That part of you that is not who you really are – but is a reactionary algorithm. Literally
a piece of mind software designed to maintain a balance between your human operating system
and the outside world.

Your own personal GUI. “Graphical User Interface”.

Just like the look and feel you experience when you boot up your Mac or windows computer. What you see, when you click on a button and how it reacts to your commands – is all a facade. A cosmetic mask designed to interface between the operating system and the outside world.

Exactly what your ego is. An interface. A “go between”. A mask.

A tool for processing what you experience through your physical body as “your reality”…

The thing is, it’s not who you really are.

It’s the part of you that has tricked you into believing it’s who you really are.

Because ego is the direct interface to your rationalization capabilities – which has no real
ability to discern what’s true or untrue – ego’s first function is to always justify itself – and it
will do so at the cost of everything else.

Ego will shift reality. Rationalize anything. Literally turn light into darkness in order to justify it’s
own legitimacy and survival. It will do this to the point where it will convince you that “it” is
you…

It does this by trapping you in a never ending flow (mind chatter) that continuously keeps your
attention fixed on the “movie” of your life to the point where you forget that you’re the “director”
of that movie.

You become the actor instead of the writer creating the script and unfolding the story…

And when this happens – who you really are becomes lost in the day-to-day drama as you
continue to react to each moment… In the great outer play – the interaction with all the other
egos all lost in their own drama – of which you’ve now become a part – of their “story” – as much
as they are a part of yours.

And you continue to validate, feed and justify each other’s “hypnotic trance” and call it “your life” – spending your time and energy re-shuffling the “cards you’ve been dealt”… The life you’re stuck with.

But, deep inside on a pure feeling level you can’t shake – you know something’s missing.

To be continued…

What if you really do love your misery?

I hear so many excuses for tolerating unhappiness. I’ve had
people weeping as they tell me about the stress of their job or
the confusion of their relationship…

Then without missing a beat, tell me they’re happy!

What was that definition of insanity? Doing the same thing over
and over expecting a different result…

I’m astonished that so many who can easily spout positive “new age”
cliches are actually living lives of “quite desperation”. And, refuse to
admit the obvious:

You’re not really happy.

You’re not happy in your marriages, relationships, your job and who
knows what else… Yet you continue to use your intellect and your
power to rationalize anything to justify your misery.

And it’s so obvious!

It’s all that after hours self-medicating your doing. Running away, shifting
your attention temporarily from the reality you don’t want to face.

But it catches up with you. Just look in the mirror. Look at your health.

Look at how fast time is passing you by and you can’t point to anything
really significant or fulfilling you’ve done in a long time… You know what I mean?

You are paying a physical and emotional price for avoiding the reality
of your life.

A chemically-altered state is not the road to happiness.

If you and your current circle of friends are all doing the same thing
you’ll never notice it… Until it blows up on you one day.

There is a solution and it’s really simple:

Begin an incremental journey into rediscovering your true self. Step by step, bit
by bit. You “remember” what real joy is – how it doesn’t require any “stimulation”
rationalization or artificially altered consciousness…

The steps you take are simple, easy and natural. Nothing that causes an upheaval
in your life but is more like an easy, natural evolution. An evolution that is illuminated by
how you feel – the joy you feel.

It only requires you paying attention to the voice deep inside you that keeps nudging
you back to yourself…

The voice that only speaks the language of feeling.

The same feeling you’ve been trying to find as you run harder and harder working at
having a good time – that is so temporary and fleeting… And, unfulfilling.

There’s a better and simpler way of getting back to that innocent child like place of joy
you know you really want… It’s remembering the simple things that bring real joy…

I’ve laid out a few starting steps I call “5 Steps To Joy”

Three videos I offer to you without cost or obligation. Just go to www.intentionalprosperity.com
and you’ll see “Love Your Life?” on top of a video player…

Watch the video and if you feel like what I’m saying makes sense
please use the form below the player and get the three free videos sent to you…

Here’s the thing.

Don’t wait like I did until a traumatic event changes your life forever.
It’s so much easier when you’re not “forced” to change… To have to learn
the hard way how to get back to your joy.

You can begin now taking the path of least resistance using an easy to understand
and apply formula that will bring real extended joy back into your life. And, I’m talking
about the natural high kind of joy you know is the right place for you…

Don’t waste anymore time justifying not being happy

After releasing my new free “5 Steps To Joy” videos last week I found myself “stumbling” over the realization that I had taken my direct experience and reverse engineered a portion of my life…

The formula which I’ve broken down into easy to understand and implement “steps” are not some kind of theory or altruistic hopeful assumptions.

No, I paid a serious price of heartbreak and subsequent introspection to arrive at such a simple and obvious set of steps to shift yourself into extended periods of Joy.

You see, the process I lay out in the videos is the very same process you can unwittingly use to create fear, uncertainty and doubt in your life. Most of us do, to lessor or greater degrees without realizing what’s going on…

We often experience the result of that “process” as our lives seeming to stay the same.

Stuck in some kind of rut – or worse, as was my in may case – become my own worst enemy and bring darkness into my life…

And one day you crash. Your world falls apart around you.

Then you have to ask the hard questions:

Beginning with: “What if this was all my fault?”…

For me this past year and a half was all about facing that question. My transformation from blaming – to accepting full responsibility was painful and remarkably healing and unleashing at the same time.

The wonderful but emotionally costly realization was seeing how I had chosen to use “the process” to reinforce an outcome – I thought I didn’t want. Yet had to experience in order to finally shatter – a place of rationalization – which brought down the “life” I thought I really wanted…

Yes, I wanted it but I had not yet taken the incremental steps of self-growth necessary to sustain it – and continue to believe in it…

That was the lesson – I stopped believing – and started blaming.

I took a beautiful magical dream – and started doubting it. Because I failed to recognize the simple steps that bring joy could also bring darkness… And I didn’t pay attention to life’s most profound of all lesson’s:

Your life experience is always a matter of what you believe and expect.

Whether you are conscious of what you ultimately believe (which is measured in taking personal responsibility) or what you unconsciously believe – which can be measured in how much you blame everything and everybody for your day-to-day reality.

You see, the “process” is the same. The sequence, of the “recipe” never changes. Only the ingredients you choose – which determine the flavor of the cake – is a matter of your free will…

It can be a “cake of joy” or a “cake of unhappiness” – either way it’s always going to be some kind of cake… And that’s the stunning realization that made it possible for me to create the “5 Steps To Joy”…

So I humbly offer to you something I paid a price beyond any valuation imaginable to understand – finally – the profound power of of belief…

Please, don’t waste any more time being unhappy…

On the other hand you can choose real healing:

For some, this will be the more emotionally painful route. But, and this is important – facing the truth about how your ego/personality had become the “ruler and rationalizer” of your life – and taking personal responsibility for those actions – is the quickest path to clearing away – once and for all – misplaced efforts and questionable assumptions that have conspired over time to rob you of your joy.

Plowing through that mountain of rationale and getting your ego/personality back to it’s subservient role (to your Higher Self) is a one-time pain…

You don’t have to keep going through it again and again

Like you would if you choose to deny… Denial is nothing more than pain deferred. Not pain dissolved.

Remember:

Denying and avoiding now only sets you up for the next much more painful emotional experience. Yeah, it keeps getting worse until it finally gets your attention…

Consciously choosing to be the victim as your preferred “healing methodology” is not really healing at all. Just rebuilding your ego.

It’s the emotional equivalent of “self medication”.

Personal responsibility (no matter how unjustified it feels) is a one-time clearing, learning and growing experience. For many, accepting full responsibility is fraught with the feeling that you are betraying yourself (which is true from the standpoint of your ego).

However, your true self/higher self- which requires no rationalization for its’ existence (as does the ego) – is fully capable of accepting responsibility for the creation of it’s life experience…

The contrast between joy and pain

…is the ultimate lesson waiting to reveal itself in every life experience when you’re finally willing to consider – “what if I really did set all this up?”

You’ll begin a remarkable journey asking yourself the hard questions – and fearlessly accepting the truth about yourself.

You see, most people avoid this kind of ruthlessly honest introspection throughout their life. They never expunge their false notions because their ego keeps a tight lid on what they will even consider.

That’s why most are doomed to repeat the same emotional journey- no matter how different the “stage, players or script” happens to be next time around.

It’s called being stuck.
