[Dave A]

[Norri]

I will! Sorry for the delays guys! I've just finished the course and have lots of notes but shoooweee, not so much time :P

[Phil Cooper]

[Norri]

I appreciate the enthusiasm / kick in the arse Phil It *does* help. It's so easy to let a thread die when you got a billion things to do but I also really want to share Mind Power with everyone I can!

[Blurock]

Ah - reminds me of University days when conflicting ideas were acceptable if your were able to hold them in perfect tension!

I love reading books even though I don't have much time to read, but I got this specific book about a month ago and it's great. It all makes sence and etc the major thing is to apply what you've learned. Knowlege is not power, applied knowledge is power.

Indeed.

And would anybody believe i just did this "writing of the word observe"? Haha. Yeah. I did it. I think i kinda need it. Who knows? There has been lots of things running inside my head recently. I need to organize them I guess.

The Inner and Outer Worlds
The outer world is what is literally happening around you all the time. The absolute truths. A pebble falls on your toe - that happened in the outer world. You got angry, that only happed in your inner world. The evidence is in your friends pointing and laughing at you jump around like a monkey Their inner world experience of that outer world situation is completely different to yours.

The inner world is your reaction to what is happening in the outer world. Happiness, confidence, worry, fear... all exist solely and exclusively in your inner world. Evidence of that is in how you can lose your cool in traffic while the guy behind you can be patient & smiling.

You gain power over your experience of your life when you stop constantly reacting to the outer world and start operating from the inner world.

The Six Laws of Your Mind
1. Thoughts are real forces.
(Weak, scattered thoughts are weak, scattered forces. Strong, focused thoughts are strong, focused forces.)
2. The mind is a sending and receiving station of thought.
(Your thoughts are affecting the people around you and the thoughts of the people around you are affecting you. Pay attention to who you spend your time with.)
3. The law of attraction. Thoughts that are emotionalised are magnetised and attract similar and like thoughts.
(If you get angry by stubbing your toe, that thought attracts other thoughts that make you angry, and you spiral.)
4. The law of control. We are forever experiencing thoughts but we have the power and ability to either entertain or dismiss them.
5. The law of insertion. We have the power and ability to insert any thought of any type into our mind.
6. The inner and outer worlds are connected.

Contemplation
In this context, this refers to deep contemplation and concentration to the exclusion of everything else. If your mind wonders 20 times, bring it back 20 times. We're learning how to concentrate and we're also doing this to uncover new things each time we contemplate these ideas...

Exercises for Week 1
These are the exercises to practise every day, for this week.
1. Contemplate the six laws for 5 minutes.
2. Take one law a day and contemplate just that one law for 5 minutes.
3. Contemplate: "I am in possession of an amazing instrument of power that is transforming my life now that I'm learning how to use it."
4. Contemplate: "My personal vibration determines the circumstances and situations that happen to me. My thoughts and my beliefs create my personal vibration."
5. Go over your notes for 5-10 minutes each day. (I would attach my notes but they're quite personal to me so perhaps just contemplate some of the other things above for an extra few minutes.
6. Observe: Several times a day, suddenly and instantly, stop what you're doing and just observe your thoughts. Don't judge. Just observe. Observe your frustration, stress, excitement, inspiration. Observe your thoughts.
- Don't observe yourself observing yourself. Think back to what you were thinking before and observe that.
- Become familiar with how your mind works.
7. Weed out negatives: Throughout the day, whenever you find yourself thinking a negative thought, use one of the following techniques to weed it out:
- Cut it off. Don't argue with it, don't defend yourself, just cut it off and think something totally different.
- Exaggerate it into ridiculousness. Don't just exaggerate it, make it completely stupid. "John is going to argue with me and then I'm going to retort, and then he's going to dislocate his jaw and swallow me whole and spit out my bones." By making it ridiculous, you take the power away from the negative thought. Your mind says, "Don't be stupid, that can't happen" and boom, it's gone.
- Observe. Just observe it and say to yourself, "I am experiencing a negative thought." You give it power when you react to it. Don't react to it. Just keep saying over and over, "It's just a negative thought, it's just a negative thought..."
- Counteract it. Immediately think something that is the direct opposite: "I won't make another sale today." -> "I will make another sale today!"

Your mind CAN only think one thought at a time.

There's a lot more to this program but hopefully these tidbits help somebody out there take control!
