The other day at lunch we spoke at the 'instant generation' ...how media has influenced a whole generation of people who think that they will get magically transported into the life they want. I am sure there are many rags to riches stories out there and I have nothing against dreaming big dreams.. I really do believe that we are meant to achieve great things. I believe in our potential as human beings. I also believe that we need to put in some effort towards our goals. In some cultures , they talk about a 21 day cycle , and say that if you are able to hold a pattern/ change you wish to make for 21 days then that change becomes embedded into your energetic body. Others call this cycle a mandala. I think doing something for 21 days sends the message to your brain that you really want to do this, then your brain sets out to find things that support this or not support it depending on your believe system on whether you really feel you deserve it in the first place. Then it takes about 1to 3 years of effort to gain recognition for your effort. Sure there are over night successes but even if you asked these people, they would tell you that they have been incubating a particular thought or idea for sometime. Work has to be done at three levels :
1. Mental level - the thoughts we carry about an outcome/something we desire
2. Physical level - what we do on a day to day basis towards that goal
3. Spiritual level- meaning it has to resonate with your spirit and and your belief system. Ideally , you also get the support of the universe to help you along the way... some people i know call this "divine arrangement or intervention" I know someone who used to support poor families and every month , she would arrange for food supplies for these families and when i asked her if she ever worried about not having the money to support these families, she replied that she did not and that it was divine arrangement....that someone would always come along to lend support whenever she needed that support. It wasnt wishing thinking...there was a silent resolve ... confidence /knowing that she exuded... she didnt have any doubts. She had the intent, she fueled the intent with effort and she let it flow into the universe for it to take a life of its own. In her case, she didnt even need to ask, she just knew.
I am quite amazed at the number of people I meet who still think that life happens to them... we make life happen .. not the other way around....by actively participating in life. By putting in the effort required to reap the rewards of our effort.... when we do this...the universe moves to help us with our goal....usually, in ways that are quite amazing.
