Shine your light only on what you want to see

We are spiritual beings having a physical experience. A spirit clothed in flesh, and as a Luminous being, we experience in life only what we illuminate. Just like a flashlight, we bring into existence whatever we shine our light upon. If we focus on negative things, then that is what we will experience. If we focus on happiness and success, then that is what we will get. This is not metaphysical mumbo-jumbo, it has been proven as a fact.

I’m sure that you know people who always expect the worst to happen to them, and it usually does. They seem to attract bad things. Call them unlucky, or cursed, but a black cloud seems to follow them wherever they go. In fact, that is how most curses work. People who believe they are cursed will focus on all the bad things that will happen to them, and these beliefs come true. Are they really cursed? The answer is yes. They cursed themselves! And to lift this self imposed curse is simple. Stop believing in the lie! Shine your light upon what you want to happen. Focus your attention on health, happiness, wealth, and success.

If you have had negative beliefs in the past, you don’t need to continue! Stop and ask yourself what you really want. Then ask what you would need to believe in, in order for you to get it. Once you have it all figured out, all you have to do is focus on these new beliefs. You will be amazed at how your life will change.

One thing to remember – you need to constantly remind yourself of the new beliefs. Write them down and review them several times a day. Whenever you find yourself thinking one of those old negative beliefs, you need to immediately eliminate it and replace it with the new positive belief.
This is often difficult at first because you have conditioned yourself to run the old belief pattern for so long. Anything that you do consistently will become a pattern, and then a habit. To break a habit, you need to break the old pattern and replace it with a different pattern.
I used to drink sodas all the time. It got to be where I was never without a soda in my hand, so one day I decided to stop. I decided to replace the soda with bottled water. The first week I had headaches from the caffine and sugar withdrawls. The second week was easier, and the third even easier still, until I didn’t even think about a soda. I thought I had it beat. I felt better and lost a lot of excess weight because all of the sugar I wasn’t consuming.
Then one day I was walking down the hall talking to a coworker about something when we passed a soda machine. The next thing I knew I was drinking a soda instead of the bottled water! I wasn’t paying attention, and pushed the soda button out of habit! Boy, was I irritated with myself! I had “fallen off the wagon”… So I threw the soda away and got a water instead. I still sometimes forget, but as soon as I catch myself, it’s back to the water. Now my habit is the water.

Choose your habits carefully, or they will choose you! Focus your attention only on what you want, and you will get it. Let your light shine on the brilliance that your future can be.
