This famous quote is attributed to Henry Ford and, for most of the past century, was used by self-help and motivational speakers. In addition to that, I found that many sales manager point to the same topic.
Here again we see another famous quote from the 20th century, this one from Napoleon Hill's landmark book "Think and Grow Rich". In this instance, it is not people in the motivational field who are pointing to it. Instead, we witnessed the sciences start to embrace some of the ideas Nikola Tesla mentioned so long ago; energy, vibration, and frequency.
How we view the world affects everything we do. A change in one belief can alter our behavior in almost every area. That is how powerful the coding system is within us. Researchers tell us the most impressionable ages are from birth to 7. This is where the brain is like a sponge, sucking in all around it. Many of the things we observe and experience become "hard-wired" into us. This is very helpful if it is something that is uplifting while enhancing our lives. Unfortunately, what often happens is the fears of those around us, parents, teachers, older siblings, are simply programmed into us.
Hence, most have beliefs that they did not choose, yet will defend with passion.
Part of my process to return from the abyss was to analyze all my beliefs. It is incredible how much of our lives are run on auto-pilot. Our interaction with the world tends to spring from the belief system imprinted upon our psyche so long ago.
Our world is filled with negativity. I am convinced that is by design. As I wrote in some articles in the past, the elites who are enslaving humanity are not only aware of esoteric ideas, they use them to perfection. If you want to negate the natural powers a person has, simply fill him or her with a vast amount of fear. This renders that person helpless. Do it to an entire population and you have what we today term "our society".
Have you ever met someone who was always "wonderful"? The type of person who is always feeling good and expressing it in an optimistic manner? An individual who you could tell was basically full of it?
Now compare that to a person you encountered who was genuinely happy? Sure there were bad days but you could tell the person was usually comfortable with what was going on.
The difference between the two is the programming. With the first individual, the expression of everything being "wonderful" was an act. At the surface level, the person might believe but the subconscious was say "bullshit". The programming was full of fear hence, not everything was wonderful.
When we look at the second person, this individual was genuine. What was being said matched the internal programming. The subconscious was in congruence with that. In this situation, what was inside was literally flowing out.
Programming is an important aspect of our lives. If we leave it to chance, which most do, we are going to be a product of society i.e. the elite. As mentioned, the younger years, which for a great deal of our persona, were spent taking in all that was wrong with our parents. Their programming, which most likely was not examined, was passed onto us. That is why we suddenly realize, years later, "oh my God, I am my mother".
I cannot stress this enough; this is all by design. The elites want to control us. They are far outnumbered hence they have to use other tactics. Fear is at the top of the list.
The goal of the elites is the make the world appear cruel and cold. It is something that requires help. We learn phrases such as "it is a dog eat dog world". Advertisers spend years blasting us with ads basically telling us that we are not enough (which is why we need to buy their products). Competition is espoused as natural putting us in a position to believe we have to fight for everything in life. This is reinforced by having a hierarchical system which grants privilege to only a few. The rest are literally forced to fight over the scraps that are left over.
Individuality is revered with the "self-made man" being the epitome of success. On this surface this looks attractive until we realize it is really isolation. Unity and cooperation are mentioned as nice ideas, but not really applicable. "I have to get what is mine" even if it is at the expense of someone else. Of course, the flip side is true...if someone gets something, I lose out.
The goal is to create dependence. This is what the elites are after. Since we view things through a dystopia lens, they are there to offer a solution. Turning our power over to them is what is best. They will solve our problems if we simply keep them in charge. Of course, they never solve any of the problems, only create more meant to further their control. Life is nothing but a Shakespearean play, with a protagonist and an antagonist. Since they are the former, they manufacture the later. We hope and pray they make the world a better place. Hence we provide our votes, tax dollars, political support, and buy their products.
Trust me when I tell you the elites know that "thoughts are things". They spent most of your life programming you to operate in a state of continual fear. The fight or flight mechanism, which was designed to provide a sudden burst of energy in a dangerous, but temporary situation, was manipulated to always be on high alert. This is why so many suffer the physical effects of stress. Anyone only needs to look at the studies about the impact of increased cortisol on the body.
This is something many say but few really understand what it means. On the surface it appears to be some woo woo mumbo jumbo. Sadly, this is what the banksters want you to think. The truth is that each person has more power within him or herself than imagined. The challenge is that we are programmed to believe we are impotent. This is the programming for the overwhelming majority of society. We only need to look at the behaviors to realize how fear, in all its forms, is really running the show.
Basically, to change the world, one must change the programming. Beliefs are to be examined if you are to make any difference in the world. We are at a crucial stage in humanity with things starting to really accelerate. We are creating technologies that are providing insight into some of what is possible (and what was possible for us naturally before the truth was hidden from us). Yet, there is still a large force out there which desires to keep us enslaved.
We cannot reflect out to the world what does not exist within us. If we are programmed for dystopia, then that is what is reflected back to us. I think all of us encountered those individuals that no matter what happened, they were negative about it. Of course, this person was a master of creating crap in not only his/her own life but of everyone around. Most of us shun those people since they are toxic. Naturally, other toxic people gravitate towards this ilk, further reinforcing the belief system.
At the other end is the person who is intent on creating utopia. This is not to say the person sticks one's head in the sand believing everything is wonderful. That is akin to the first person I mentioned. The cognitive dissonance is evident in that situation. Uptopia is not blind optimism. One with this view does not believe there is no bad in the world. There is plenty of evil shit that takes place. Only a fool tries to deny that. However, one with an utopian outlook realizes the overall good that is taking place and the optimism of progress being made. It is a re-programming, moving away from fear towards, for lack of a better word, love.
When we adopt this belief system, it is easy to see inter-connectedness of it all. "No man is an island". Each day we interact with hundreds of people who are all tapped into the same consciousness as we are. There is no monopoly on emotions or feelings. We all tend to experience the same in this area. Those who believe they are so unique are only deluding themselves with their programming. This is what the banksters want. Divide and conquer is their methodology.
After reading these words, it is imperative to know we are free to choose. It is possible that most of us never considered this. Few spend their time analyzing their belief systems unless they ended up in a real emotional quagmire. Instead, we go through life ripping into anything that goes counter to what we believe without even questioning it. We literally are like puppets on a string.
The world is full of bullies. We see them in every walk of life. The truth about bullies is they are completely consumed with fear. The reason they attack, degrade, and make fun of is because if it was done to them, the pain would be excruciating. These people fall into the "he can dish it out but he cant take it" category.
We see a lot of that behavior on here. While Steemit is better than the average social media site, we see many who profess to be one thing yet have to attack, degrade, and call others names. The truth of the matter, since there is the connection, one is really attacking oneself. And why wouldn't he or she? When one hates oneself, that is what is done. The lashing outward is done out of helplessness. Isn't this the epitome of fear? Decades of bankster programming leads one to this point. One who truly possesses self-love needs not attack another. Of course, none of us are perfect so it is a moment-by-moment thing.
Throughout the ages, all the long-standing texts mentioned going "within". What I am writing here today is a reflection of that. It is only by searching within ourselves that we are able to take that outward. Most times, this is a slow process drawn out over years. Remember, the programming took years to be implemented, it is not going to change instantly.
I think it is safe to say that most on here love the idea of freedom. At the same time, most are aware that humanity is enslaved. We all want to help free the world. However, this cannot be done while we are operating out of fear and allowing the bankster programming to continue unchecked. If we want to change the world, we need to recode ourselves.
If you believe the world is shit and we are doomed, congratulations, you are a star pupil. You learned the lesson of the banksters well. Hopelessness is utopia to them. When one achieves that state, drugs, alcohol, gambling, violence, and a host of other maladies become attractive. Of course, they profit off all of them.
The battle that is being waged is not physical, nor is it monetary. Instead, the bankters are engaged upon a game that is mental, emotional, psychological, and spiritual. They took great pains to ensure they control it all. Now it is up to us to break down their system.
It all starts with one person seeing things for what they are and deciding to go within for the answers. After that, "miracles" start to happen.
