Why Your Unconscious Mind Trumps the Law of Attraction

Why Your Unconscious Mind Trumps the Law of Attraction…

…and What You Can Do About It

On the surface it seems like everything’s going along nicely.

  • Your career is on track.
  • You have a nice family who loves you.
  • You’re in relatively good shape.

So if everything is going so well, why are you still so unsettled?

With all you have going for you, why is it that you’re unable to get to that next step, to get over that next hurdle, to reach the finish line of self-actualization?

Sometimes it feels like you’re swimming against a current that’s keeping you stationary, even though your strokes are strong and true, and you’re getting more and more tired, but you must keep going because you hold out hope that, eventually, the current will subside, but it never does. Your life may appear good on the surface, but is it your best life, a life you dare only imagine?

That “current” is your unconscious. There are things left undone, past issues which have been left unresolved, old mindsets and attitudes that have worn out their welcome: guilt, shame, blame, anger, resentment, or other outdated modes of self-sabotage that may still linger in the shadows.

See if any of these scenarios ring true to you:

Your expenses always rise to meet the level of your income…

You fall just short of meeting important goals…

You have trouble saving for the future even though you know you must…

You’re always just “this close” to real, lasting success at work or in your business…

You think you are in the relationship of your dreams, and then Mr. or Ms. Right just fizzles away…

Your spouse shocks you with a divorce you never saw coming…

First of all, if you saw yourself in any of the above situations, you are in good company. There are millions of people like you who continue to suffer with similar frustrations because they lack the tools to unlock and reprogram their unconscious minds. Even a small incident as a child, long ago forgotten and left unrecognized, has the power to run your life.

This is precisely why The Law of Attraction falls short for most people.

They see the movies, read the books and perform the visualizations and other exercises they are told to do to attract wealth, health or love, but to no avail. The Law of Attraction can make you a good swimmer, but it can’t control the current. You need to calm the waters of your unconscious mind before any real progress can happen.

Now for some good news – you can Bridge 2 BrillianceSM

This “current,” this unconscious force holding you back, is actually a good thing! Every action or inaction that accompanies us through life has a definite purpose, even if it is not at first visible.

Rather than fear the unconscious, you can learn how to harness its power and read its messages.

It is said that the truth will set you free. Uncover the unconscious truth, and you will be set free to move beyond those unknown limitations into greater clarity, brilliance, and manifestation. However, the truth without action still results in inertia.

Throughout the centuries, mystics, shamans, saints and sages have learned how to disable the unconscious programs that create havoc. What made them great was their choice to move through their personal tragedies and transmute them into wisdom, clarity, and brilliance. They risked letting go of control and discovered the greatest control of all: cooperation with life as it presents itself.

I’ve faced many powerful challenges in my own life, and endured the constrictions and compressions. Having walked that path, I’ve become uniquely positioned to help you identify and release the obstacles that prevent you from living brilliantly. Every diamond faces it’s compression and trial by fire. Humans are no different. Those that dare to play with life will find their own true brilliance.

You will Get Clear and Get Connected

You can tap into who you really are and shake off what’s holding you back. Elevate your life and get connected to your inner sources of brilliance. Your inner wisdom will lead you to discover the tools to live a brilliant life. And the best news is…it’s easier than you think!

The end result? Picture a life fulfilled. A place where your goals are met, your relationships are constantly blossoming with each new day. A lifestyle filled with a steady flowing stream of abundance. It’s not only possible, it’s your birthright.

The first move is yours…

Dreams Need Dreamers

By ·

My friend and colleague, Debbi Dachinger, is a dreamer.  Not the kind that stares out the window and says, “Some day, I’ll….”  Nope. Debbi puts both wings and feet to her dreams.  She writes them down and then does what it takes to make them come true.  Big or small, she does them all!

Just this week, her new book, Dare To Dream:  A Secret Guide to Making your Dreams a Reality, hit Number One in Amazon.  Congratulations Deb!

Dreamers and leaders are a lot alike.  A true leader, like a dreamer,  inspires, nurtures, and creates an environment for their goals to be realized.  This includes systems and support for their dreams/goals to thrive. The bigger the dream, the larger the network needed to make it a reality.  Big dreams need lots of help!  Deb has given us the perfect guide to help us cross our own personal finish line!

Debbi enlisted her friends, colleagues and those with a similar vision.  They stepped up to the plate and helped her cross the finish line from dream to best seller.  A dream without action is nothing.  A dream with a solid foundation leaves a legacy.   Big dream making is not a solo event.

Deb teaches us a lot about completion.  Her syndicated radio show, “Dare to Dream” airs worldwide from Wednesday – Sunday and features thought leaders and celebrities alike.  This award winning syndicated program attracts more than a million listeners — all because she decided to start a radio show!  This is a woman with a mission to change the world doing what she loves best!  Week in and week out, she does what it takes to continue growing her dream and influence.

Want to write a book? Start a business?  Go back to school? Your willingness to get started will provide the ability to do. Finish the step in front of you and the next will appear. So will the energy. So will your support team.  How?  You don’t always need to know. Things show up when you are ready for them!

Learn from those who succeed, those who have something to teach you, and balance that against your dream and inner wisdom.  Do the inner work necessary to move beyond your inner critic into action.  Learn, honor and accept that your dream has a life of its own. Your job is to nurture it to completion.

Life is fragile. Dare to slow down enough to let your dreams take shape.  Take the steps that will slowly and surely open the doors for success to appear.

No dream is too small to be ignored. Where would we be if Martin Luther King, Bill Gates or Oprah had put their dreams on hold?  Maybe it’s time for you to write yours down, and start making it a reality.  We’re waiting…

Got Personal Power?

By ·

There are three simple keys that create a foundation for personal power.

They are my W.I.N. formula for helping your dreams come true.

Key # 1:  Win in Your Dreams.

•  If your dream is genuine, you’ll find yourself returning to it again and again.

It’s okay if you’re not there! The mistakes and failures are all part of the process.

Every great dream begins with a simple thought. An architect draws plan before she builds. Your “fantasy” sets the stage for your reality.

•  The mind can’t tell the difference between real and imagined, so choose your thoughts wisely.

After my husband passed way, it was difficult to imagine another relationship. I did know, however, what I wanted in a relationship. I wrote it down, creating an “ideal scene.”  I added “For the highest good of all concerned” and let it go.  Fast forward. I met and married another man who was a dream come true. He was everything I’d asked for and so much more….

•  The bigger your dreams, the less likely you’ll know how to get where you are going.

Baby steps are enough. Complete each step as it appears. That completion will open the door for your next step to appear. Forget figuring out how something will show up.   In my case, I met my husband to be when I almost ran him over!

Obstacles: A focus on the past, fear, unable to let go of control, won’t invest in yourself, thinking you need to do everything yourself, rigid ideas of how things should look.

•  Remember that obstacles are not always what they seem, and attitude is everything.

Key #2:  Impeccable Integrity. You are your word. Be impeccable. Let your yes be yes, and your no be no. Don’t be afraid to choose a direction however, and then shift it as you get feedback.  Yes and no are not carved in stone.  They are there to serve you.

•  When you commit to something, pay attention to your intuition. Notice the subtle feelings and thoughts that emerge. They contain valuable information.

I know someone who got married to a woman when every cell in his body screamed “no.”  I asked why he was going he was marrying her. He replied, “I don’t want to disappoint her.  She has her dress and the shower gifts.”  That marriage lasted less than a month.  Be truthful with yourself first. It will save you heartache later. At this point in my life, when I say yes to something, I also add, “health and schedule permitting.”

Obstacles: Needing approval, making other people more important than your intuitive knowing, needing to look good, inability to take calculated risks.

•  Make paying attention to your thoughts, lightening up, and taking care of yourself a priority.

Key #3:  Neutral Noticing. Cultivate the habit of noticing everything around you and in you.  This quality of conscious observation activates your inner guidance system.

•  When we let go of expectations of how things should be, our ability to be clear and intuitive grows.

Heightened awareness allows us to notice opportunities where others see only setbacks.  The mind must be trained to observe without judgment so that the heart is free to direct us from that inner knowing.

Add these steps together, and you have a first class method for manifesting your life the way you want it.

Obstacles: Judgments of others, self and rigid expectations of what is expected.

•  Flexibility and a sense of humor are antidotes!

I’ve used these three keys for almost 20 years. They are simple, not always easy to remember. Explore them, find what fits, and most importantly use them!

Here’s to your dreams.
