Found the secret to longevity, good health, etc.

You just have to love all the time.

Now that is probably too simple.  Let’s look over some examples:

W. Clement Stone, student and mentor to Napoleon Hill, and one of the richest men on the planet for his time, died at age 100. What was he known for? Positive Mental Attitude. He, like Earl Nightingale, already had it when they uncovered Hill’s “Think and Grow Rich”. 

Certain Taoists in remote mountains are known to live even longer. Health is not an issue here. And most of our modern world would say that they lived fairly boring lives. But they don’t suffer from illness and live longer than anyone you know.

Now, just a point here – we aren’t running away from Death. There is no fear of death here. It’s a natural phenomenon, along with illness and is to be embraced just like any other part of life. Life is a dream (per Serge Kahili King of Huna) and so you are really looking for the most rewarding dream you can find. Something which tickles your fancy.

The bulk of people on this planet (upwards of 97-99%) are here simply to get entertained. They fill their lives with all sort of conflict and distractions which keeps them more than busy.

And there are some who are here to figure things out. The trick to this one is to see that the universe itself doesn’t need to be figured out, as it’s a complete system and will keep running all on its own – you just need to work out how to contribute within it and do your part. But you can figure out what you’re supposed to be doing here.

When you do accomplish that, you move onto another dream, goes the theory. And these never really run out – since you have an infinite amount of dreams to live out. The imagination is just that infinite. No dream is wrong or right. No dream is perfect, but they all are – and we’ll get to that later. The point is to take this as the light game it is.

So the key secret is knowing what the universe is built on.

Love.

This is the creative source which built this universe. And you can look up more of this via Charles Haanel and his “Master Key System”. The more you create the world and universe around you, the more you take responsibility for it and move it along, the better it gets. You have to love it to death. (I did this with some scammers and they never recovered… but a lot of people got their money back.)

And you also use tools like your own intuition, which is also infinite and will give you any answers you want – the old “Seek and you will find, Ask and it will be given.”

Negatives like Death and Evil are just absences of their positive. If you want more light in a room, you don’t shovel out the dark, but you turn on more light. If you want a longer life, than throw more living into it.

In short, you need to concentrate on the original love which created the scene you are in and work to make it even greater.

Of course, this also entails another Huna principle – that “There are no limits.” Meaning, you and me and all of us are connected. So the more you work to spread your love and get other people to love/create more in their own lives, the better everything works out.

When you run down any ill health problem, what do you see? Stress. Which is some form of combating or wanting to change what’s there. What is the common solution to ill-health? Not drugs – these just combat. No, it’s relaxation. And they used to tell people to take up a creative hobby. Of course, move to a rural area isn’t a bad idea – where there is a lot of Nature around you which just keeps going in a very ordinary pattern. (In fact there was a village of people reported recently where they all routinely live past one hundred years old. They lived a very mundane life of simply working out in the fields and weather most every day of the year, producing their own food. Simple, routine lives.

And they are constantly co-creating the world around them. Simple. Pure. Free from stress.

Now this doesn’t mean you have to give up your current world-view or lifestyle. But I brought this to you to share one of those secrets which is right in front of all of our noses.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for letting me know. I'll do what I can to help you with that...

There's a point which people mostly don't get, although Quantum Physicists are recently starting to find out: It's an always on, always interconnected universe.

Gregg Braden told of experiements they did with tissue, flying it hundreds and thousands of miles away from it's owner - and finding that it would react to any influence as if it were still physically connected.

It really stems from the point made clear by our planet's most ancient surviving philosophy as represented by Huna in the Polynesian islands, "There are no limits." Just to take this to its fullest phrasing - (the mind as NLP tells us, sees no "no") - we are all connected to everyone and everything around us.

And you should play with this idea to develop your skills in this. Because when you are thinking of someone, they can feel it - and are probably thinking of you. Same for pets, plants, and so on.

Sure, it's a weird idea. We've been carefully trained to ignore those influences all our Western lives. And this is what gives us politics, the CIA, Weapons of Mass Destruction, North Korea, etc. You name any ill we have in our societies and you can trace it back to closed minds.

The idea of scarcity goes this way. While the Universe operates in abundance, humans manage to set themselves up to starve right in the middle of it. Buckminster Fuller proved that we have had the capacity to feed, clothe, and house every single person on this planet since at least World War II, if not before. And that is actually the mechanical definition of it.

On a spiritual plane, this datum both explains and explores fascinating new realms. Here is all they psychic stuff of intuition, remote sensing. And actually then brings a practical hard-wired explanation to the Golden Rule and even Druidic concepts that what you give out comes back to you several times more.

Criminals (and politicians) are often on the dirty end of this stick. Because they think they can act (and think and feel) with impunity. But any downfall of the "rich and famous" can be traced back to how they treated people.

Here's the actual point - it's an always-on Universe. Your dreams, your random thoughts, your hopes and fears - these are all thoughts which you are sharing with those around you.

2nd point - you can control your thoughts by self-discipline. (And perhaps you've noticed the calm that seems to exude from some people when they enter a room...)

And so we have the power of prayer. How to pray, the most effective way I've found, is to simply get into the feeling you want to have in your life or toward someone else or on their behalf. If you want healing, you get the feeling of how a perfectly healed body. If you want rain, get the idea of happy children playing in that rain, of people's relief, even of the plant's reduced stress.

Words, of course, help you get into that feeling and maintain it. So we have the chants of Amerindians and ancient tribal societies, the mantra's of Eastern religions, the Latin prayers in the Catholic rituals.

Oldest has been simply entering "the Silence", as found in our New Thought books and our oldest traditions. Arm wrestling champions in Japan, some of them in their 80's and 90's were beating challengers a quarter their age and their secret: think of nothing.

A last point before I go this morning: This universe we live in actually stores all thought. Like a massive battery. Anyone potentially has access to any information they need to improve their life. And they can get this simply by being still, relaxed in body and mind, and get the idea that they have the solution to whatever problem is in front of them. Then inspiration will come in a flash.

So put good thoughts out, OK? Live a happy life.

Because what you think affects everyone and everything around you. There are no limits.

Pass it on.

7 Life-changing Principles: The ways it's all laid out - too easy, but we make it complicated

(photo credit: turtlemom_nancy)

There are some simple truths which can make your life easier - if you believe in them.

Here's 7 simple principles you can improve your life with and go about living a much easier life. But I don't tell you that you have to believe in these, only that you can...

1. The world is what you think it is. This is one of the oldest principles out there - and only survived through oral history. But it surfaces in every religion and every philosophy there is. Modern "positive thinking" also adopted this from older New Thought writings, which in turn lifted them from Eastern beliefs - which were influenced by that older oral tradition. "Thoughts are things." "We become what we think about." "What you can conceive and believe, you can achieve." All these are the same concept.
   
   
2. Now, after that, examination shows that there is no such thing as "chance." Everything is caused in this universe. If something "happens" to you which is a "surprise" - just go back and figure out why you left this up to someone else to decide. Of course, you have to really believe that the first item above is true before you can say with any certainty that this second one could be.
   
   
3. Another principle from those older (Huna) principles: "There are no limits." Essentially, this means that we are all connected somehow. Quantum physicists have been proving this for nearly a half-century by now. Of course, this tends to support #2 above, and also #1. But realistically, you have to believe in #1 before you'll believe #3 - so it's a bit of a self-serving cyclical belief structure. This starts to explain this universe we live in - if you take the quantum view of things. These scientists discovered that what a person thinks determines what happens to him - but also that we are connected to each other in very strong ways, regardless of how separated we may be physically. Which leads us to:
   
   
4. All your thoughts are shared - and so are everyone else's. Braden and others have gone down this route. But you can figure this is where some of your "inspiration" comes from. We are permanently connected to each other and our "separateness" is a convenient fiction. Of course, this explains psychic phenomenon and a few other things. You've probably ran into anecdotal evidence of this in your own life from time to time. Such as a mother and child knowing when it's time to feed, as well as when the other is under stress.
   
   
5. So, practically, there is nothing you can't know and understand. Tapping into this would then be a way to gain advantages in your life - personally, financially, socially. And if you look up the subject of genius, you'll see that you can find ways to bring out your own native genius abilities - which methods have been known throughout the centuries, by many different writers in many different times and places. Only our modern Internet Age has made all this data readily available for anyone with an Internet connection to find.
   
   
6. You can change your personality into anything you want or need it to be. This is known to be true completely outside of any of 1-5 above. But those earlier 5 points explain why it happens. Thoughts determine actions, which consistently performed produce habits, which then form personality. Any habit can be changed (according to many recurring and overlapping studies) in about 30 days - if you simply force yourself to do something different every time you are about to do something "habitually" you want to change. People can start drinking water every time they want a cigarette - and wean themselves off that physical need. (Which is one explanation why some people gain weight when they quit smoking - they can substitute food for cigarettes.) Of course this means that criminals and pedophiles can change their minds. And there are even some studies which show that changing your personality (habitual ways of thinking) will change your DNA to a greater or lesser degree. And of course, that throws another larger set of studies saying that people are genetically one way or the other - well, I love that study which says 50% of all scientific studies contradict the other 50%.
   
   
7. "Effectiveness is the measure of truth." And so, you choose what you want to believe based on whether it's workable for you or not. Means you can throw this post away, along with all the data above and keep living anyway you want. The final proof of anything lies only within you. And people will continue to find things in their lives which support any way they like to live. Liberals always find support for liberal policies, conservatives likewise. Criminals can always justify their actions, and the religious can find some scripture which supports any particular way of action they choose. Like Henry Ford said, “If you think you can do it, or you think you can't do it, You are right.”
   

So there you have it. If you believe in what I've gone over above, then you've got it made. And if you think I'm full of it, you're also on the right road. Because either way, you're right.

I post this because maybe you had an inkling that you could have more control over your own life, or that you could get out of a stressful situation you are going through. These above principles are just ways you can change your life and live it easier.

How do these make your life easier? Well, when you are happier, life is easier overall than when you are all stressed out, right? And if you can change your mind about something you find you don't want to keep doing, then you can do things you really like to do. Doing things you like to do as a routine basis will help you be happier all the time. So, by changing your thoughts - and tuning into positive, helpful thoughts of people around you - you can then change your life into anything you want it to be.

But of course, that's your choice. And no one else's.

Thought you'd want to know that.

Cheers.
