Mind Over Matter - The Facts And Fiction

By Jackie Traveller

A lot of people have a hard time believing that they can change their circumstances. If you are like most people, you believe that what you have is what you are stuck with. Understanding the concept of mind over matter will change all that.

The truth about life in general is that everything is mind over matter. Everyone has the capability of further developing their mind power; they just have to know how to do it.

One of the ways you can begin to develop using mind over matter is to practice turning your negative thoughts into positive affirmations. Spend some time thinking about what it means to control every aspect of your life with your thoughts. You could bring about a better job, more money, happier relationships, a healthier body and a happier disposition easily when you know how.

Now think about your current situation. How many times a day do you worry about not having enough money? Do you constantly put yourself down about not being able to lose weight? Are you in a job you hate? Every time your mind tells yourself these negative things, you're telling your sub-conscious that you want it to focus on these things.

If you could master the mind over matter powers that could bring you more of the good things and less of the negative things, would you be interested?

Take some time to listen to what you say to yourself in the privacy of your own thoughts. If you're thinking 'I hate my job, I can't afford nice things, I'll never lose weight', then these negative thoughts will influence your actions. You will unconsciously make choices that will make these thoughts a reality in your life.

When your sub-conscious is aware of the positive reality you want, your choices will be influenced by more positive actions, which lead naturally to more positive outcomes.

A good way to begin putting the power of mind over matter to work for you is to repeat to yourself several times a day 'I love my job, I'm losing weight easily and money comes easily to me'. At first, you will automatically disbelieve these things. You will be tempted to feel as though they aren't true and they won't happen, but you'll be slowly programming your mind to accept choices that will result in more positive outcomes.

You will begin to see that everything in your life is mind over matter once you take a step back and think about your previous choices and decisions. Take for example a person who has been through a violent or abusive relationship. If those people have been told repeatedly they are fat or stupid or useless, eventually they'll believe it. Their self-esteem will come crashing down.

If only more people knew that their destiny lies in their hands (and minds of course), there would be less sadness and failure.

Now think about the opposite approach. If you tell yourself regularly that you are beautiful and worthy of a great job with plenty of money, you will at first think 'that's not true'. But deep down your unconscious mind will be listening and the reprogramming will be happening slowly. Before you know it, you'll believe in yourself and your actions will lead to more positive outcomes.

Believing in yourself has never been easier, and neither has living a life full of abundance and joy. It's mind over matter!
