Getting a new thought, knowing the opposite direction to go in times of need is not that hard. In an infinite universe, with all the plethora of stimuli being thrown at us from every direction, getting new ideas or options is easy.
The juice in the equation is the energy with which we infuse the idea. Some call it faith, some have a problem with that word from previous religious training. Some call it intention, purpose, belief or a host of other things. But the effect is still the same. The energy accelerates the change the idea promises, but it can also inhibit the progress depending upon the nature of the emotion.
It’s not a matter of IF we have faith, we always have faith in something. We believe something is likely to happen or we decide that it’s too farfetched for someone like us. Either way, that is the energy we are choosing to move this thing forward.
We’ve been taught to have more faith, like there is a convenient pool where we can go fill our bucket. It’s not necessarily a matter of adding more, but aligning similar faith with similar ideas.
That is really our part of the equation, choosing which ideas and which direction and then continuing to send the same instructions. If you feel you’re going in circles, observe if you have gotten an idea, but you’re vacillating between belief and doubt, essentially sending mixed messages.
When we stay with an idea, infuse it with positive energy, our subconscious accepts our request and translates it into its spiritual equivalent to Infinite Intelligence which knows how to manifest it. Instead of fixating on how new good will show up, we keep focusing on clarifying the request and expanding our receptivity.
