Learn from the Past, Focus on the Now, Look to the Future: Sound advice for life

The mind is a curious thing; it can make one’s thoughts wander from one subject to another and yet unless the person is conscious of this, it never stops.  There is a saying: “sometimes the mind takes on a life of its own”, which is an accurate statement; regardless, there are people in life that have identified this phenomenon and have undoubtedly become successful, thus ensuring they are the masters of their own domain.

Einstein for example, widely revered for his genius, has one such quote: “The Intuitive Mind Is a Sacred Gift and the Rational Mind Is a Faithful Servant” (link: http://quoteinvestigator.com/2013/09/18/intuitive-mind/) Therefore suggesting that the intuitive and imaginative mind should be respected, suggesting he knew exactly how to identify and traverse the rational mind.  This explains his access to marvelous concepts, thus allowing etheric downloads because he had a connection to the divine.

Henry Ford, famous for his invention of the automobile, had a similar quote: “To see a thing clearly in the mind makes it begin to take form” (link: http://www.notable-quotes.com/f/ford_henry.html).  Although not as spiritual as Einstein’s quote, he had gained the ability to visualize through the mind’s eye, suggesting his connection to the super conscious mind of All That Is was very good.

Another mind that has had a positive effect on our times is from Ralph Waldo Emerson, who came up with this accurate quote: “The mind, once stretched by a new idea, never returns to its original dimensions”. (link: http://www.goodreads.com/quotes/37815-the-mind-once-stretched-by-a-new-idea-never-returns).  When a person has negotiated past a specific marker point in the mind, it most likely will not return.  For example, once the wheel was invented, it changed society forever, and humanity didn’t regress back to where it came from it went forward. Likewise, once new concepts are pulled from the ethers and universal mind, the individual who has accessed them can never turn back.

It’s important to understand when one is in a constant state of fear, anger and worry; the mind will not expand, rather it will take on a life of its own, saturated in negativity. This concept is well known by the educational institutions that traditionally groom the rational mind to keep society running and the people subservient to its policies. To brainwash the mind is an abomination, however, to identify this and begin to use the left and right side of the brain in concert with one another is sowing the seeds for not only critical thinking but connecting spiritually to the information in the ethers.
An individual’s personality is an accumulation of the experiences and beliefs they have in life. Place into the mix the experience of past lives, and one has the result they look at in the mirror at every morning.  To access the past life experiences is the challenge, but it’s a good bet if the person is negative they are paying back karma from their previous incarnation.

The challenge in every life is to traverse whatever negativity is being encountered for whatever reason and bring oneself up on the emotional scale.  When you meet a happy person, one who is often in a very good mood, the energy from that individual is contagious. This person doesn’t have to be rich to be happy, they have to have peace of mind and be constantly engaged in the now moment. This doesn’t mean this person does not have times where they dip emotionally, but they have learned to deal with it properly.
One could say a person is the sum of their parts; their past experiences define who they are, along with their core beliefs.  If the past has been hard on a person, they may be very paranoid, angry and fearful, so they vibrate on a lower scale. To begin to have a happier life, they must learn from their past and begin to concentrate on the now moment while not allowing the mind to chatter which may result in worrying.

The best way to stop mind chatter is to do something creative.  When creativity is engaged, the right side of the brain suppresses the rational left side of the brain, and the ego that runs it, from jumping up and down like a little kid.  Activities like writing, gardening, or drawing calm the emotions and allow a fine connection to one’s higher self. Essentially, find a hobby that can calm the mind that is both fun and quiet. It’s the surefire way to begin the spiritual connection and attaining higher emotions, even if one has had a tough life.
When one reaches the pinnacle that they can live with themselves happily without being with someone else, they have disciplined the mind sufficiently enough to move into the path to enlightenment.  That’s not to say that having a partner that shares the same mindset is not beneficial, rather it’s confirmation that one has attained love of self.

With the past being dealt with, and the now moment being appreciated more, the future cannot be ignored.  Being happy in the moment and having dealt with the past is a mastery in its own right, nevertheless one must know where they are going to get there.  The past will still come up from time to time, but it’s always best to live in the moment and move forward.
Once one has control over their mind and moves towards a higher consciousness, they will have an idea, perhaps a vision, of where they want to go.  The concepts and ideas from the ethers and universal mind now become accessible as once one reaches the ability to tune into the right frequency, they can go get them.  Meditation, quiet times, affirmations and similar concepts to connect to spirit, all have the unique ability to tell the universe you now have control of your own physical experiences.

With the past now in the rear view mirror, control of the rational mind attained, the now becomes more enjoyable and has a clear purpose.  This bodes well for the future because decisions made in the now are done so consciously and not through fear; thus, the emotional scale has been successfully navigated and the happy person referred to previously in now you!  This brings with it happiness, confidence, peace of mind and above all a connection to one’s higher self, therefore without realizing it; the seeds have been sown that makes one a magnet for thoughts, concepts, people and a bright future.

In a nutshell, learning from the past and conquering the rational mind will enable a much more enjoyable now experience.  This is how Albert Einstein, Henry Ford and Ralph Waldo Emerson achieved their mastery!  Try these steps to attain a more spiritual, enjoyable life; and eventually you will realize you are the change you have been waiting for.
