Earlier this week I made a claim that we are responsible for absolutely everything that happens in our lives. For you to understand that, you first need to understand the concept of the Law of Attraction and how, through the vibrations that you release as a result of your thoughts and feelings, you attract the people, events, circumstances, and the environment that resonates with your predominant vibration. For people who understand the Law of Attraction, it is easier to understand how adults attract things, but it can still be difficult to see how an infant born to certain conditions is responsible for those conditions.
This comes back to the whole notion of your entire consciousness being attractive, which includes your subconscious mind, and not just your conscious mind. An infant does not have anything in their conscious mind – not anything they can make sense of anyways. When a child is born, they are, however, born with a subconscious mind that is wide open for programming, and although is wide open, it does not mean that it is empty.
Since we are all really Energy, I believe we are linked, in a way, through our subconscious minds. And the infant is subconsciously linked to his or her parents, community, country, and world as a whole, with parents having the strongest influence. If you have trouble with this, think of DNA. Child’s DNA carries programming from his parents, his larger community, and the human species as a whole, with the parental influence being the strongest. In a similar manner, the same child take on the subconscious programming from their parents. And it is this subconscious programming that a child starts out with that is attractive.
I hope that this explanation makes some sense.
Until next time,

Earlier I talked about the majority of our thoughts being subconscious. And although we can attract more experiences into our lives through the power of trained conscious thought, at the end of the day, conscious thoughts are vastly outnumbered by the subconscious thoughts. This is precisely why I think that analyzing our subconscious programming and re-working it is so vital.
This, of itself, is a monstrous topic that has whole books written about it, so I will not be able to go into a lot of detail in this post. I will direct your attention to one area of your life, and that is your childhood, which is the time where most subconscious programming takes place as your mind is wide open. To get a better understanding of what kind of subconscious programming you have about a given subject, like money or relationships, try to remember the things you have heard, seen, and experienced in relation to that very topic when you were a child.
You may think that you have a positive outlook on intimate relationships, but if you saw your parents fight all the time and saw people getting divorced, that is what you have stored in your subconscious, and that is what you are very likely to bring into your own experience as well. You may think that your attitude towards money is supportive of your goals, but if you have heard as a child things like ‘money is a root of all evil’, ‘we can’t afford that’, and ‘rich people are crooks’, then you will have very hard time achieving financial abundance in your life.
So think about your childhood and that should shed some light on your subconscious mind.

Yesterday I talked about how the vast majority of our thoughts, over 95% of them to be more precise, go through our minds completely unnoticed and uncontrolled. But I also mentioned that this does not mean that we only have 5% control over our lives. The good thing is that a trained thought has much more energy behind it, and thus more power, than an untrained thought.
If you have ever played ‘tug o’ war’, then you’ll know that you get much more power when everyone pulls together. Trained thoughts have a similar effect. If you are not paying any attention to your conscious mind, then your consciousness is responsible for about 5% of your experiences. Under this arrangement, effectively all the thoughts, conscious and subconscious, are pulling at the rope at random.
Exercising trained thought is like having everyone pull on the rope at the same time from the conscious side, while having the subconscious thoughts pulling on the rope without any organization. There will still be a lot of experiences created by your subconscious mind, but suddenly you will find that you have more and more influence on your life as you put some power behind your conscious thoughts.
Until next time,

We have about 70,000 thoughts every single day. Over 95% of those thoughts are subconscious, meaning that you are not even aware of them. The subconscious mind is truly the driving force behind your experiences, which is why addressing the deep-rooted beliefs is such a powerful exercise. I mean, think about it, if every thought has a frequency associated with it, and every frequency attracts to it things, events, and circumstances of the same vibrational frequency, then 95% of what you are attracting, you are not even aware of.
I believe that the subconscious thoughts are responsible for majority of our lives and for all those things that make you say, “I never thought about that, so why is it showing up?”. The subconscious thoughts attract into our experience things that seem to be totally random and not connected to our conscious thoughts. But remember, it is not just out conscious mind that creates our experiences, it is our entire consciousness. And that is one of the most powerful distinctions that I have ever made for myself.
But since only 5% of our thoughts are conscious, does that mean that we can never truly be in control of our lives? If I had only 5% share in a company, it would be very difficult to take the company in the direction that I want it to go. Thankfully the fact that we are only aware of 5% of our thoughts, does not mean that we can only have 5% control. But more on that later!
Until next time,

This post is a follow-up, in a way, to yesterday’s post. It is a little comical and light so that you can transition smoothly into your weekend. I want to share with you a conversation that I had with my dad not too long ago.
I told him about the movie, ‘The Secret’, and said that he should watch it. He did, and when I asked him for some thoughts and feedback he said, ‘It was interesting, but I hope that you don’t live your life from that’. That was a nice starting point for a good debate about the different experiences in life.
After exchanging different thoughts he said, ‘OK, I want to win the lottery. I can easily see it. How many times do I have to play and not win to prove to you that this doesn’t work?’ Ummm….
I’m not going to go into the fallacies contained in that statement today, but you should be able to pick up on a couple of things right away so I will leave that as a quick exercise for you.
Until Monday,

Yesterday I mentioned the idea of testing spirituality in a traditional scientific laboratory environment. The interesting realization that I came to is that when you test something spiritual, you are setting yourself up for failure. The reason? Your expectation.
Quite often when a person learns about a spiritual law, like the Law of Attraction, they want to believe it but have hard time doing so. In order to decide whether to believe it or not, they decide to test it for themselves. Now even though this person may be testing to prove that it works, he or she is really testing it because they do not believe that it works. Do you notice the difference?
I mentioned before that it’s thoughts and, more importantly, feelings that are attractive in their nature and that for me to attract something that I desire, I need to think and feel as if it is true. So if I knew that the Law of Attraction worked, I would not be compelled to test it. The very act of testing sends out a vibration of doubt. Now this doesn’t mean that the Law of Attraction won’t work – it will always work because it is the Law – but it will appear to not work by not bringing what you want into your experience.
Say you want to test the Law of Attraction by attracting a cup of coffee, and when you really break it down, essentially you are not sure whether or not you’ll be able to attract that cup of coffee. Not being sure is what will greatly increase the likelihood of you not attracting the cup of coffee into your life. The Law still works because it was acting on your doubt, but it seems that it doesn’t work for you. The biggest factor is how strong is the feeling of doubt. The stronger the feeling of doubt, the harder it will be to have the Law work to your advantage.
Your thoughts?
Until next time,

In my experience of sharing my spiritual beliefs and my approach to life with others, it’s just a matter of time before someone asks ‘What if you are wrong?’, implying that my beliefs do not shape my reality, and that Law of Attraction is more of a coincidence than a Law. My response to that is that it’s still worth doing. Tony Robbins said at one point that we should not worry as much about whether the belief is true, but rather whether it is useful. Now that sounds a little odd – ignore the facts as long as it is useful – but with spirituality, where the biggest affect is on your quality of life, useful works. Especially because it’s hard to prove anything spiritual in a traditional scientific lab environment.
I personally really enjoy talking with pure scientific minds about this stuff, because this often goes against what they know. And the challenges that I get from them are often very similar – they mention not being able to prove this in a double-blind study, or they refer to some cognitive bias as being the reason for my belief. But the beautiful thing is that regardless of what they want to believe, I still constantly attract the right people, the right opportunities, and the best parking spots into my experience.
What is exciting is that there is more and more evidence to support what I believe about how things work. Science is just starting to catch on. And as liberal as the scientific community paints themselves to be, according to the very same pure scientific minds, scientists cannot deviate too much in terms of what they study and publish without risking their carriers. I actually had one of my friends admit to me that, in the current environment, if someone was trying to do a lot more research in the ‘fluffy spiritual stuff’, they would have very hard time getting funding, even more trouble getting published, and would pretty much be burying their career. No wonder there are not a lot of paper on this subject. However that is slowly changing and it will be comical when I’ll get to say ‘Told you so!’ with a big grin on my face.
Until next time,

Earlier this week I wrote a post on how we live in a perfect Universe and how our ability to bring that into our experience is directly related to our ability to internalize that very idea. I also want to define what I mean by ’spiritual’ in this case. You may have a different definition, but to me being ’spiritual’ means being in alignment with the Universe and Its Laws. So if I want to check how spiritual I am, I just need to look at my results. If the results reflect what I want, then I am being spiritual.
The logic here is pretty simple, and you may see it already. Results are essentially a measure of my spirituality. My ability to create in the physical plane is directly related to how well I embody and understand the Creative Process. So as my understanding becomes deeper, I get better at directing and focusing my energy and at knowing the Truth of my being, and as that happens, the automatic Universal response will be closer to what I want to create, thus my results will be more bang on. It forms a nice loop, in a way. I hope that makes sense!
Your thoughts?
Until Monday,

Today is a milestone of sorts – this is blog entry 100!! “Thank you, thank you, please sit down!”. A day like this deserves a great post.
This is one of those simple, yet so profound concepts that have really resonated with me. It is the idea that I do not need to compel, force, reason with, or convince the Universe to work. Instead, all I need to do is to think, feel, and act in accord with Its Laws and Principles, the Universe will respond willingly, automatically, and harmoniously each and every time. In the physical world, we know that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. I think that the same principle applies. The Universal Intelligence works like a computer that has all of the answers and knows all of the ways – sort of like the Internet on crack – and we can beg it to give us an answer all that we want with no results. We need to enter an appropriate command and we’ll get a corresponding answer. Very simple, but difficult, for me anyway, to truly internalize.
I have been nurturing this concept in my mind for the last several weeks and am only starting to feel like I am internalizing it. It was one of those things that really jumped out at me. I think it’s something that I understood intellectually but failed to believe deep down inside. In that feeling place I still felt like the Universe had a choice of whether or not to act on my thoughts, feelings, and actions and that it could act with half-effort. Not so! It acts automatically because it is one of the Universal Laws. When you really get this, if you are anything like me, it will be one of the most liberating experiences! This is a really cool concept to truly GET!
Until next time,

Yesterday I wrote about how the perfect Universe needs to be seen mentally before it can become a part of our experience. What that says to me is the need for a bigger idea of myself, my relationships, my contributions, my productivity, my community, my country, and my world. There has been a lot of talk lately about the ‘bigger new idea’ from several sources, and it is the concept that I have spent many hours contemplating. It is a predominant thought that is in my mind. I see my entire experience being a result of my past ideas, thus by having a ‘bigger idea’ now, I can create a ‘bigger experience’ in all aspects of my life.
So what is this ‘bigger idea’? To me the process of coming up with a ‘bigger idea’ is the very process of removing self-imposed limiting beliefs. That is why I am dedicating a lot of time and energy to this very topic. Our beliefs guide our life, and it’s like that saying goes “it’s not what you don’t know that will hurt you, it’s what you know that isn’t true”. Many people work the job they dislike because they do not see another option. Many people are in destructive relationships because they think it’s normal and do not see another possibility. It’s like that with all aspects of life, and you need to ask yourself, “who said this has to be like this?” and “how do they know?” to start breaking out of that pattern. And in the process you will discover a bigger idea that you can start to live from.
Until next time,
