How Do You KNOW?
I listened to a very interesting audio today by Bob Proctor. It hit me in just the right place and I found it so informative, I just had to share the information with you. It was one of the Bonuses on “Six Minutes to Success” to which I start my day every morning with my cup of coffee.
I won’t get into the whole thing but just a single point that struck me. This very point I had been pondering for quite some time…like months. It is this: How can you move from the point of believing to the place of KNOWING! I know that a quote from the Bible says “…believe that you receive and you shall have it.” Getting the believing part secured into my sub-conscious was hard enough but still did NOT get me my desired results! There’s MORE. I have to KNOW beyond a shadow of doubt that which I desire IS MINE.
The good thing is I have had that experience once in my life to draw upon to reinforce this new mindset. This was actually a prayer request that was first and foremost on my mind. It was something that was completely out of my control so I could only rely on God to deliver it. There was absolutely no way I could “help Him” or take any credit. I held this particular outcome consciously for over 5 years, praying without ceasing. Every time I thought about it, I gave it to God (or the Universe). My prayers we not always the kind where I was on my knees although there were times when I did. Most of it was done by thoughts in my head, battling it out in my mind; fighting fears, doubts, scepticism which came up all too often. By continuously rejecting those internal thoughts and choosing to believe what it says in the Bible instead, I gradually began to really believe. I had become obsessed with it. Believing was really just the middle of my positive outcome. My internal war had not yet been completely won but my daily battles were being won more and more frequently.
As I said earlier, this part took a long time as I had to actively reinforce my new belief (desired outcome) and actively starve my old beliefs by rejecting them every time I became aware of them. One night as I was in bed praying, I just KNEW. No longer did I have to pray about it. All I did from then on is be grateful. Things did not outwardly change right away but within a few weeks, it did. I’d like to mention that during that brief time, things did get worse before it got better. My take on that is that the “bad” set the stage for the final desired outcome.
This was the same process Bob Proctor described in the audio I listen to. I had forgotten all about it until he reminded me of it. Once again, I have a strong desire but this time I have to not only believe but also take some action on my part, other than just praying. This concerns financial desires. I’m planning on using this technique again. Here is one of the tools I’m using and taking action with.
