Timeline perspective

Are you happy with all the different areas of your life? What about the old
you, would they be happy with the way your life is just now?what about your
future self?

Here’s a different approach to try to find out how happy you are with
the different areas of your life.

The Timeline perspective is learning to look at all the areas of your life
from lots all of your different perspectives. It is looking at yourself
from the past, the present and the future.

Why?

Why would you use the timeline perspective of yourself?

I believe consciousness is an amazing aspect of human life
and I also believe we can access consciousness from all ourselves; past, present
and future. It
may have a memory which we can tap into. I see consciousness as being
a split up into different clouds and each consciousness cloud can be tapped
into should we wish to use its knowledge.

I am working with the theory that these clouds of consciousnesses can be tapped
into simply by thinking about tapping into them. For example, if we want
to tap into psychic consciousness all we have to do is think about having psychic
experiences, we have to believe that I will happen, read about it let it soak
us and sure enough psychic experiences will come.

I believe this is how the ‘Law of attraction’ works. We
think that the law of attraction works, we eventually believe it will work
and eventually it will work. It takes a giant leap of faith to believe
it but once it starts to help us in our day to day lives the law of attraction
will work a lot quicker. So we are tapping into the law of attraction
cloud

Timeline cloud

Just as there may be clouds of consciousness for everything we can think of
and some we have yet to think of we have clouds which pertain to us specifically. Within
these clouds we can access our past consciousness, pour present consciousness
and our future consciousness.

I will discuss these clouds of consciousness in future posts as I am playing
with the theory and trying to experience it as much as possible before formulating
any concrete belief. This is the beauty of checking out all of my current
beliefs it’s great to play with them , dismiss them and formulate my
own, instead of someone telling me this is what you should believe and anything
else is just stupid or crazy.

Try it out

Okay here’s an example to play with and check out the timeline perspective.

Look at one specific area of your life just now for example your career.

Ask yourself these questions and be as honest as you possibly can. Let
the answers come to you if you can and try and let everything that comes into
your mind come out onto the paper or the computer. I will use my answers by
way of an example. I am currently a support worker for the homeless;
I have not yet made the transition to full time life coach or seminar speaker
and internet entrepreneur.

Are you happy with your current career? – Yes I am
very happy with where I am just now

Think back to yourself 1 year ago, would that person be happy with
your current career? - I think they would be a little disbelieving
but I think they would be very surprised and happy yes.

Think back to yourself 5 years ago, would that person be happy with
your current career? – Again he would be surprised and he
wouldn’t dream that he would be working as a support worker with the
homeless.

Think back to yourself 10 years ago, would that person be happy with
your current career? He wouldn’t have been happy as he wanted
something else in, life; he wanted more prestige, more money.

Now think of yourself 1 year from now, is that person happy with your
current career? – He is happy with the experience it gave
him but feels it is nearing the end of that career.

Now think of yourself 5 years from now, is that person happy with
your current career? – No not at all, he would be very unhappy
if he was still in the same job.

I think you get the picture now.

What I found most interesting about this exercise is that I believed I would
be happy with this career in all aspects of myself: past, present and future. However
when I came to answer the questions about different aspects of my life it was
really surprising what my past thought about my present and what my future
thought about my present choices.

Accessing our future selves

Now you might think ‘how the hell can we access our future selves’. For
a moment think about what you are going to do tomorrow, possibly get up to
go to work, think of the work you will do, the people you will talk to, etc
etc. You have just accessed your future self. You always have to
access your future self at some point. The moment you wake up you are
accessing your future self you have to think about what you are going to do
before you do it.

This was a great revelation to me when I discovered it, and it is by no means
a new revelation:

You ALWAYS have to think about your future before you
do it.

I will leave this post here for now as there is so much more to say on this
subject and I will be talking about it a lot in the future.

For now I hope the meeting with your three selves goes well.

   The Law of Attraction reveals The Secret to Everything we ever wanted… Ever since the world found out about the Law of Attraction through the phenomenon of the movie,

   people from every corner of the globe have been asking Bob Proctor for more. The Answer is a Simple One There is an Exact Science to Applying the Law of Attraction to

   Build the Life we Seek. Well we have seen the Movie, Now Live the Philosophy and Claim the Wealth the Universe Has Always Had Waiting for us. Millions of people are

   already using the Law of Attraction to make their lives successful. It is no longer a secret, but a household term that is rightfully being given the attention it deserves.

   We can also learn how to use the “Law of Attraction” to create whatever we want in life - be it money, love or happiness - and generate abundance.
   Well like with Everything that’s coming into your life you are attracting into your life. And it’s attracted by virtue of the images you’re holding in your mind. It’s what

   you’re thinking. Whatever is going on in your mind you are attracting to you.

   Few deeper things on this matter:)

   Really interesting ideas

   “THOUGHT is the only power which can produce tangible riches from the
   Formless Substance. The stuff from which all things are made is a substance which thinks, and a thought of form in this substance produces the form.

   Original Substance moves according to its thoughts; every form and processyou see in nature is the visible expression of a thought in Original Substance.

   As the Formless Stuff thinks of a form, it takes that form; as it thinks of a motion, it makes that motion. That is the way all things were created. We live in a thought world, which is part of a thought universe.

   The thought of a moving universe extended throughout Formless Substance, and the Thinking Stuff moving according to that thought, took the form of systems of planets, and maintains that form. Thinking Substance takes the form of its thought, and moves according to the thought. Holding the idea of a circling system of suns and worlds, it takes the form of these bodies, and moves them as it thinks.

   Thinking the form of a slow-growing oak tree, it moves accordingly, and produces the tree, though centuries may be required to do the work.

   In creating, the Formless seems to move according to the lines of motion it has established; the thought of an oak tree does not cause the instant formation of a full-grown tree, but it does start in motion the forces which will produce the tree, along established lines of growth.

   Every thought of form, held in thinking Substance, causes the creation of the form, but always, or at least generally, along lines of growth and action already
   established.

   The thought of a house of a certain construction, if it were impressed upon Formless Substance, might not cause the instant formation, of the house; but it would cause the turning of creative energies already working in trade and commerce into such channels as to result in the speedy building of the house.

   And if there were no existing channels through which the creative energy could work, then the house would be formed directly from primal substance, without waiting for the slow processes of the organic and inorganic world.

   No thought of form can be impressed upon Original Substance without causing the creation of the form.

   Man is a thinking center, and can originate thought. All the forms that man fashions with his hands must first exist in his thought; he cannot shape a thing until he has thought that thing.

   And so far man has confined his efforts wholly to the work of his hands; he has applied manual labor to the world of forms, seeking to change or modify those already existing. He has never thought of trying to cause the creation of new forms by impressing his thoughts upon Formless Substance.

   When man has a thought-form, he takes material from the forms of nature, and makes an image of the form which is in his mind. He has, so far, made little or no effort to co-operate with Formless Intelligence; to work “with the Father.”

   He has not dreamed that he can “do what he seeth the Father doing.” Man reshapes and modifies existing forms by manual labor; he has given no attention to the question whether he may not produce things from Formless Substance by communicating his thoughts to it.”

   Wallace Wattles
   From the “Science of Getting Rich”

   Wattles wrote this stuff nearly a century ago. He has in my opinion come the closest to understanding and describing in practical terms what we now call the “law of attraction.”

   I suspect Wattles has a better handle on this law than anybody else,

   His book is all over the internet if you want to see it.

   What I found most interesting about this exercise with the questions about career is that it makes you think not only about yourself an the position you were in, the position you are in , and the position you will be… and your love for your career, and your position with your career, i really like the idea of this excercise. great post.

   CHeers,
