We now delve into the dynamics of how experiences in our mind attract similar experiences into our lives. The strength of this attraction is influenced by the energy of the experience, with experiences rich in love having far more attraction power than experiences of fear.
As you place experiences into your mind, they immediately start attracting similar experiences. In other words, they start attracting experiences of similar energy. The stronger the energy of the experience the stronger the energy of the attraction.
Strong feelings like hate, anger, rage, shame, blame, greed, and many others stem from the core emotion of fear. Think of these as ingredients in a bowl of fear soup.
Strong feelings of joy, peace, harmony, unity, oneness, and others stem from the core emotion of love. Think of these as ingredients in a bowl of love soup.
A feeling of love has far more attraction power than a feeling of fear. Which soup are you adding ingredients to?
While your body is in an experience, you have free will to add love to that experience or to add fear. Add a feeling of love to the experience and that experience, while stored in the mind, will attract similar experiences of love to you. If you want to be, better than you were before, become better by adding love to as many of your experiences as you can.
While in your mind, the feeling stored with an experience is the primary factor influencing the attraction power. Experiences with love as a member have more attraction power in the mind than experiences with fear.
As you squeeze your finger and instantly become angry, that experience, which we’ll call EX1, is stored in your mind with anger. You are instantly attracting more anger-filled experiences into your life.
In the next moment, you realize that you didn’t really want to store anger in your mind. You also know now that you can purposely store another similar experience, which we’ll call EX2, this one with love in it, and that love will more than offset the anger in EX1. Since love is a more powerful attraction you’ll attract more love-filled experiences to you.
In this example, you now have two experiences of squeezing your finger stored in your mind. One, EX1, has anger as a member and another, EX2, has love as a member. Since love has far more attraction power, in the mind, than anger, you will be attracting more experiences with love as a member into your life. You will feel better.
Let’s explore this concept more deeply. Think back many years to a past encounter with anger. We’ll call this EX3. Notice how, when you recollect it, you almost feel like you’re living it all over again. At this juncture, you have the power to intentionally offset that anger energy and do it by adding love energy to your present experience. We’ll call this present experience EX4. As you do this, the fresh, love-infused experience, EX4, is stored in your mind. The prior, anger-laden memory, EX3, still resides in your mind where it was initially stored. However, the new experience is imprinted as an entirely distinct memory. The key difference is that this new experience carries significantly more attraction power than the old one, all thanks to the presence of love.
When you remember or recall an experience, you are essentially asking your mind to fetch that stored experience. As the mind fetches the old experience it is only taking a copy of that experience and is not removing it.
This is conscious remembering, where individuals recall past experiences and actively choose to replace negative emotions, such as anger, with love.
This process of changing one’s thinking and beliefs to consciously introduce love into their experiences is a pathway to a better, more fulfilling life.
You’re winning. You’re feeling better. You are better than you were before. All you had to do was change your mind to live a better life. You didn’t even have to squeeze your finger again to make the change in your smind.
