It has been spoken about (albeit behind closed doors) for centuries.  Going back in history anyone discussing it openly would have either been stoned, lynched or renounced a heretic.  Leonardo da Vinci depicted it in his work, Earl Nightingale released it in his breakthrough work, “The Strangest Secret”, Wallace D Wattles depicted it openly through his writing in his book, “The Science of Getting Rich”, Napoleon Hill learned of it in his interviews with the worlds most powerful and successful people and then documented his learnings in his incredible text, “Think and Grow Rich”, George Lucas spread “the message” in his six part movie series “Star Wars”, the Wachowski Bros detailed it in their epic tale, “The Matrix”, James Cameron depicted it on an imagined planet called “Pandora” in the blockbuster, “Avatar” and so on and so forth…

George Lucas spoke of this firstly through his character Ben Kenobi in the first of the Star Wars Movies, “A New Hope” when explaining the force to an intrigued Luke Skywalker.  His words were, “…it is an energy field created by all living things.  It surrounds us, and penetrates us.  It binds the galaxy together.”  It is suggested in later movies that when you begin to understand and develop a greater control over “The Force” that you are able to effect not just your own life but the lives of all those around you also.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe once said that, “None are more hopelessly enslaved as those who falsely believe that they are free.”

In the Wachowski Bros. epic series, “The Matrix”, the leader of the resistance, “Morpheus” explained the existence of this “Matrix” by explaining that, “The Matrix is everywhere, it is all around us, even now in this very room.  You can see it when you look out your window, or when you turn on your television.  You can feel it when you go to work, when you go to church, when you pay your taxes.  It is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth…”

The truth that he refers to is that the world that we “see” before us is not “real” at all.  Rather it is a computer generated world that we are “plugged into” and the image of ourselves is nothing more than a “residual self image” that is represented as “Avatars” in this computer generated world.

James Cameron in his incredible tale of the future, “Avatar” explains how all things connected and that the planet has a life force of its own that all things are linked to.  All things communicate through an energetic link that  whereby all life is merely energy in one form or another.

This brings us to the foundation of physics.

The word “Physics” comes from the Greek word, “φύσις”, which means “nature”.  It involves the study of matter and its motion through spacetime, as well as all applicable concepts, such as energy and force.  One of the most basic principals of Physics is that energy cannot be created or destroyed, it can only be transferred or transformed.  It suggests that all energy, whether it be the physical representation of matter or that of a thought itself is merely just that…Energy.

All things that exist, physical, mental or otherwise being the same way, with the same thing.  THOUGHT.

Everything that exists begins with thought.  That which you focus on comes to be.  Energy flows where focus goes.  Society has been focusing on all of the negatives in the world and thus what becomes more and more present is the negative.  “Global Financial Crisis” is preached about all over the world and thus more and more financial crisis is experienced by more and more of the population.

“Life’s tough” – Life becomes harder.

“I hate my job” – more things present for you to hate your job.

“All men are bastards” – harsher acts are conducted to make you right.

The list goes on and on.  What you look for, you’ll find.

Start looking for what you want instead of finding all of the things that you are focused on not wanting.  It takes practice.  For the most part, most of us have been that conditioned to quantify our existence based on our misery.  Just until the end of the month, focus on only the desired result (whatever that result may be), every time you think a negative or success negating thought write it down and set both the note and the thought aside.  See how much you focus on not being able to achieve your goals.  Energy flows where focus goes.  Pretty easy to see why you are where you are.

Happy trails!!
